Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Guan Yu made a face, said nothing, and sat aside.  Wen Han told Zhou Long what happened today. Zhou Long was covered in cold sweat. For ordinary people like him, the Yuan family in Runan was heaven. Not to mention offending them, he was not even qualified to say a word to them.  .

    "Oh my! My dear brother, why are you so impulsive? What made you so courageous? You just offended the Cui family, a wealthy family in this county, and now you have offended the Yuan family in Runan! You  ! You! You! Go to Brother Yuan to apologize, otherwise you won¡¯t even have a chance to beg for mercy!¡±

    Zhou Long looked anxious and took Wenhan's hand to walk out.

    "Brother! Why are you so afraid of trouble? That Runan Yuan family looks down upon others and regards me as an ant. Now, you still want to beg for mercy in front of them. Are you really a low-class person as Yuan Jiuji said?"

    Guan Yu stood up and shouted loudly.  Zhou Long's body trembled suddenly, he turned around, and with a blushing face, he pointed at Guan Yu and said, "I want to beg for mercy? Do you know? The power of the Yuan family in Runan is so great. The four generations and three princes, others can do it at will."  If you give orders, you can kill Bufan Shengsheng! The power of others is overwhelming! What can we do to resist it!"

    Guan Yu and Zhou Long were arguing angrily, but Wen Han closed his eyes and listened quietly to their quarrel.  This commotion attracted Lin, Li Qiang, and Pei Yuanshao.

    "That's enough! Shut up!" Wen Han suddenly shouted loudly and stopped the two people. Everyone present turned their attention to Wen Han.

    "We are from a humble background. The wealthy family despises us all because we are weak. Because of this, we must work together, work hard, and accumulate a lot. In this world, the number of wealthy families is far smaller than that of Hanshi  , why can a wealthy family control the world?

    It is because the poor people are afraid of the wealthy families and accept their fate. In their minds, they believe that the wealthy families cannot be hostile!  But I believe that man can conquer nature!  Although I, Wen Bufan, am said to be meager and weak, I am not willing to accept my fate and be toyed with by a wealthy and aristocratic family!  My life is in my heart, and I want everyone to be like a dragon and control their own destiny.

    This is my ambition, and for this, I will not hesitate even if my body is broken into pieces!  "

    After Wenhan said these words, he left casually.

    There was silence in the hall, and there was something in Wenhan's words.  Most of those who set great aspirations are those who can change dynasties.  Pei Yuanshao and Li Qiang looked at each other and smiled, seeing that their master had great ambitions, which was their blessing.  Although Wenhan is now just an insignificant existence to those wealthy families.

    However, Pei Yuanshao and Li Qiang, who had experienced the Battle of Black Wind and the Battle of Huangle, knew Wenhan was very capable.  Therefore, they both believe in Wenhan.  This trust is truly earned.

    As for Guan Yu and Zhou Long, they stood quietly for a while and then left.  The two of them had different thoughts and were thinking about it.

    Zhou Long knew that Wenhan had great ambitions and was ready to help him. However, every time Wenhan provoked a big shot, Zhou Long was caught off guard.

    Zhou Long is the kind of person who always thinks about the worst and is pessimistic.  Zhou Long's pessimism is entirely due to his low self-esteem. He often thinks that he is incapable. Once he encounters a problem, he immediately feels that the sky is falling.  Wenhan knew his character well, and his words today were just to wake up Zhou Long.

    As for Guan Yu, he admired Wen Han.  But just for appreciation.  Wenhan's words suggest that he is looking for like-minded people to accomplish his great ambitions together.  Guan Yu heard it but didn't express it. He was probably observing Wen Han in his heart.

    After several days in a row, Zhou Long locked himself in his room the rest of the time, except for going to the county government office to do work.  Wenhan once asked Lin, who answered with a smile.  It is said that Zhou Long read books in his room to strengthen himself and not to be the inferior person Yuan Gongguo said.  Wen Han was very pleased to see Zhou Long willing to strengthen himself.

    There were still two or three days before the horse-drawn competition, and Mrs. Lin was extremely busy. Even if Wen Han asked Li Qiang and Cheng Dong, two people who had managed gambling houses, to help, they were still busy.  Lin counted the number of participants and found that there were about 3,000 low-end participants. Except for 1,000 people from the county, the others were all gamblers gathered from various counties.  Most of the participants in the mid-level event were merchants from various counties, with a total of more than 500 people.  Finally, there is the high-end area, because some wealthy people have personally come to see Lin, demanding that the number of people in this high-end area must be limited, and their identities must be strictly checked.  Therefore, after one round of screening, the number of participants in the high-end area was only about sixty.

    Because Wenhan's manor was not convenient for holding events, Lin bought a house in Jie County and decorated it a lot. Lin spent a lot of money to divide the house into three different areas. The more high-end areas, the more furnishings.  The more luxurious it is.

    ¡° However, the number of participants in this low-end area far exceeded Lin¡¯s expectations, and there was no room for so many people.  Wen Hanjian??Lin held the event over several days, which solved the problem.  Wenhan wanted to prevent those who participated in the competition from not understanding the rules and being dishonest.  Ask Lin to put wooden boards in the venue with rules engraved on them.

    There are four contestants at one table, and ten games are held. The one who wins the most money after ten games is considered the winner of the first round, and the rest are eliminated.  The winner of the first round of each table will gather four more people for the second round. After ten games, the winner of the second round will be decided.  From this cycle, the remaining four contestants are eliminated, and the final ten games are played to determine the ranking.

    These four contestants, after determining their rankings and receiving bonuses, can directly advance to the mid-range area and compete again.  The rules of the mid-range area are the same as those of the low-range area. After the top four are determined, they will advance to the high-end area.  Finally, in the high-end area, the person who wins the final competition will be given the title of "Ma Diao" by the county magistrate "Yang Hong".

    Regarding the horse-drawn competition, Wenhan did not interfere too much and only guided Lin, Li Qiang and Cheng Dong.  I usually spend my spare time training.

    However, a few days ago, Wenhan invited a group of blacksmiths, about twenty or thirty people, and arranged for them to live in the village courtyard.  Then according to their wishes, some useless rooms were transformed into blacksmith rooms.

    Wenhan had secretly investigated these people, and they were all blacksmiths with innocent wealth and no connection to the wealthy family.  Wenhan handed them the scroll with a picture of a saddle and stirrups, and sternly told them not to reveal it.  When these blacksmiths saw the drawings, they were astonished. They knew that this matter was of great importance and they should keep it secret immediately and start manufacturing.

    In Yang Hong¡¯s mansion.

    Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, and Xu You were sitting in the main hall of Yang Mansion respectively. Yang Hong was smiling charmingly, serving these three young masters carefully.  Among these three people, except for Xu You, the two Yuan brothers were nobler than Yang Hong in terms of status and had a higher official position than Yang Hong. In order to keep the black hat on his head, Yang Hong did not dare to offend him in the slightest.

    "Yang Hong, tell me again. Who invented this horse crane?"

    Yuan Shu had a sullen face and stared at Yang Hong with a pair of vicious eyes.

    "If I go back to Master Yin, this horse crane was invented by Wen Han and Wen Bufan."

    Yang Hong was sweating profusely and nodded in response.

    Snapped!

    Yuan Shu slammed the tea table and stood up.

    "How could it be this Wen Bufan! It's so haunting and annoying!"

    Yuan Shu gritted his teeth. Thinking of the poem Wen Han recited at Wangyue Tower that day, he became very angry!

    "Hey. Brother Shu, don't be angry." Seeing that Yuan Shu was about to run away again, Yuan Shao hurriedly advised, then turned to Yang Hong and said: "Since it was the horse crane invented by Wen Bufan. Why did I hear that this time  The owner of the gambling house in the Horse Racing Competition is He Zhubo's adjutant 'Zhou Long', where is Zhou Zidan?"

    Seeing Yuan Shu getting angry, Yang Hong couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat. Then he listened to Yuan Shao's question and carefully responded: "Your Excellency, you don't know something. This Wenhan was originally hunted by his enemies, but he escaped by chance and was rescued by Zhou Long. The two of them are brothers. So.  ¡­¡±

    "Okay. I understand." Yuan Shao waved his hand and interrupted Yang Hong. After pondering for a while, he said again: "We, the Fourth Young Master of Luoyang, have ordered from General He to come here to find the horse hanging.  The person who invented it invited him to Luoyang and gave him a fortune.

    "However, this Wenhan thinks he has some intelligence and speaks rudely to us, which makes me very tired."  I wonder if Mr. Yang Hong has any wise ideas that can relieve my worries?  "

    Yuan Shao did not hide his dissatisfaction with Wen Bufan in his words. After hearing this, Yang Hong guessed that Wen Han must have offended the two Yuan brothers. Now the Yuan brothers not only do not want to give Wen Han the wealth that originally belonged to him, but also want Wen Han to secretly  Tired to death.

    "Wen Bufan, don't blame this county magistrate. Blame yourself. You overestimate your capabilities and offend someone you cannot offend."

    Yang Hong secretly slandered and said from his heart: "This horse crane was first popular in Jie County. It can be said that the people in this county are all very knowledgeable about it. The county magistrate can find someone and ask him to identify him as that horse crane."  The inventor of hanging, give him a fortune.

    As for Na Wenhan, he was so bold that he dared to speak rudely to the Lord.  This person must be the evil one.  However, Wenhan was a bully in the county and had five hundred private soldiers in his hands, all of whom were extremely fierce.  If troops were sent to attack his village, there would be countless casualties.  Lord Yuan Shao and Lord Yuan Shu are so distinguished. They had a dispute with Na Wenhan the day before yesterday. It would be bad if Wenhan suspected the Lord's brother and talked nonsense and hurt the Lord's reputation.  "

    "Okay! No wonder this Wen Bufan is so arrogant, he, he actually has private soldiers! I will immediately send my generals Lei Bo and Chen Lan to kill him!"

    In fact, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.  It is not uncommon for people who are not court officials to have private soldiers, diners, and staff, but they are usually from wealthy families or wealthy merchants.  The imperial court knew these scholars??The purpose of gathering private soldiers, diners, and staff was to protect the family business. The gentry was very powerful at that time, so they could only turn a blind eye.

    Yuan Shu stared and wanted to call someone.  At this time, Yuan Shao stopped him and said: "Brother Shu, don't be impulsive. The red-faced man who came with Wen Bufan that day has extraordinary martial arts. Moreover, if Wen Bufan is to be eliminated, it is inconvenient for our subordinates to show up. Let's listen first.  , Magistrate Yang has some clever ideas."

    Yuan Shu heard that Yuan Shao's words were reasonable, so he suppressed his thoughts.  He snorted coldly, not wanting to lose face, and then put on a straight face.
