Chapter 515: Promise to the Fox Clan
Before the old crane could land, Wan Shanhong took the box to lift his energy and landed on the crane's back. Instead, he leaned over and tilted his head to wave to Wu Zhongyuan, "Come on."
"What should I do if the rice and grain you lend us?" Wu Zhongyuan looked up.
"Haha, are you still afraid that I will betray the debt?" Wan Shanhong asked with a smile.
"I believe you won't, but our bear clan is really not going to get rid of the blame." Wu Zhongyuan said the truth. The beasts he brought back from Minshan were dead. If they were not dealt with in time, they would soon rot. Therefore, he gave all the corpses of the beasts to Dabo and Dahong, and the other cities were not distributed. The rice and grain provided by the barbarians were distributed to each city of Dayuan, and each city could only get a few thousand kilograms.
Wan Shanhong looked up at the sky, estimated the time, and then said, "I will arrange it immediately when I go back and send it to you before sunrise tomorrow."
"Really?" Wu Zhongyuan was half-believing. It was 200,000 kilograms. It was already the hour of Si, and it was less than one right before the sunrise tomorrow. If you want to send so much rice to Youxiong, you can only use birds. Even if each bird travels back and forth multiple times, at least hundreds of them are needed.
Regarding Wu Zhongyuan's doubts, Wan Shanhong replied with a contempt expression, "I won't go there myself. When I received rice and grain, you go to Yanyun Mountain to find me. Do you know where Yanyun Mountain is?"
"I know roughly." Wu Zhongyuan nodded.
"You bear clan has many wall cities, where can you send food?" Wan Shanhong asked.
"Send it to the capital to have a bear." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"Okay, then I'll leave first," Wan Shanhong threw an exaggerated look at Wu Zhongyuan, "Come earlier, my sister has something good for you."
Although Wu Zhongyuan knew that Wan Shanhong was teasing him on purpose, he still couldn't help but be embarrassed. Wan Shanhong seemed to like to see his awkward and awkward expressions. After achieving his goal, he laughed and drove Lao He to the west.
It was not until Wan Shanhong and the old crane disappeared into the western sky that Wu Zhongyuan withdrew his sight. The incident happened too suddenly, making him confused and met by chance. He had 200,000 kilograms of corn at one move. Wan Shanhong was too generous. What exactly did this guy want to do?
At this time, he had no intention of using his body skills. He directly summoned Qinglong Armor and rushed to the fox clan with a brain-wrenching question mark. If it were someone else, he might be immersed in the joy of meeting a good person at this time. However, Wu Zhongyuan paid great attention to logic. Wan Shanhong suddenly appeared and generously gave him 200,000 kilograms of rice and grain. Wan Shanhong's explanation for this was just to make friends with him. This kind of investment and gain were seriously irrational.
The ancients said that something abnormal will happen. There must be other reasons for such an illogical thing. If you think about it carefully, there are three possibilities. First, this is a trap. Wan Shanhong was instructed to lure him to Yanyun Mountain, but this possibility is really not great, because Wan Shanhong puts aid rice and grain before inviting him to Yanyun Mountain. There is no need to put such a big bait if he sets up a trap.
The second possibility is that Wan Shanhong fell in love with him. This possibility is the greatest, at least 70%. What is money and food? That is everyone's hard work. No matter how rich Wan Shanhong is, she will not give 200,000 kilograms for no reason. Unless she likes him, if she just wants to make friends, there is no need to give such a heavy gift.
The last possibility is that Wan Shanhong is catching big fish with a long line, first making him owe a lot of favors, and then wait until the time is ripe before seeking rewards. However, this possibility is also very small. Wan Shanhong appeared very accidentally before, and she did not intend to approach him. To put it bluntly, she encountered it.
In addition to the above three possibilities, there is another possibility that is that Wan Shanhong likes him without any other elements, but just simply appreciates and likes him. He used a psychopath to teach the hooligan a lesson, and at the same time taught the vase how to identify men. Wan Shanhong saw these. Wan Shanhong finally couldn't help but smile and walked out of the woods.
From this we can see that Wan Shanhong is also a very casual person. After appearing, hahaha is the word she uses the most. She smiles very presumptuously and exaggeratedly, and has a very nervous smell. Wan Shanhong may have regarded him as a kind of person.
But this explanation doesn't seem to be reasonable, because Wan Shanhong showed curiosity about him intentionally or unintentionally, and tempted him half-true and half-false. As we all know, the temptation between men and women starts with half-joking. If you have feelings and I do, then it's not a joke. If I have feelings and you do not intend, then it's a joke, and it's not embarrassing to be rejected.
However, after careful recollection, Wan Shanhong's temptation to him may be just teasing him. The more he is confused and alert he is, the more interesting Wan Shanhong feels, and the more he wants to tease him.
At a distance of dozens of miles away from the Fox Clan, Wu Zhongyuan saw a large number of carriages and horses driving out of the Fox Clan. Each carriage was loaded. Although it was covered very tightly, the outline of the macaque was still visible. The carriage was undoubtedly the rice and grain of the fox Clan that helped the bear clan.
He was worried that an accident would occur, so he sent Wu Rong and Wu Lanqing over. At this time, the two were standing on the city tower with Shisanlang. Wu Rong and Shisanlang were talking about something, while Wu Lanqing watched the grain carriage drive out of the city with her eyes intent. The woman was careful and should be counting.
Out of courtesy, Wu Zhongyuan did not land directly on the city wall, but fell outside the city wall. When the three of them saw him coming, they hurriedly came down from the city wall.
After greetings, Shisanlang pointed to the convoy and said to Wu Zhongyuan, "Brother, this is 70,000 kilograms of grain and rice. I know that it cannot solve the current difficulties of the bear clan, but the fox clan is so capable, don't think it's too small."
"Brother Wang, thank you." Wu Zhongyuan patted Shisanlang's arm. Wan Shanhong had previously said that the fox clan's grain storage capacity was only 100,000 kilograms at most, and 70,000 kilograms were almost full of help for the fox clan. After all, the fox clan itself had to eat.
Since Wu Rong and Wu Lanqing were beside him, it was not convenient for them to say some things, and they just said some irrelevant gossip.
Before Wu Zhongyuan arrived, the convoy had already started. Before noon, the convoys all drove out. Wu Rong and Wu Lanqing said goodbye to Wu Zhongyuan and Shisanlang, wanting to accompany the team.
Shisanlang warmly tried to keep him, but he said he would leave after lunch. The two politely refused and insisted on going on the road.
Shisanlang tried to keep it, so he asked Wu Zhongyuan to speak. The four of them returned to the city and went to the fox palace to attend a banquet.
The main content of the conversation during the meal was the future plan of the fox clan. Wu Zhongyuan once again suggested to Shisanlang that if Shisanlang was willing, he could move his clan north and take refuge in Central China.
However, this proposal was rejected by Shisanlang because the fox clan had lived here for a long time and the clan members were unwilling to leave their hometown.
Seeing that Shisanlang was unwilling to move north, Wu Zhongyuan did not advise him again. Although Shisanlang said that he was unwilling to leave his hometown was one of the reasons, it was not the main reason. The fox tribe did not want to move north because the fox tribe was not human, and they did not want to get too close to humans.
After halfway through the banquet, Thirteen Lang ordered people to call out his wife and let his wife to toast the three of them. This is not a necessary step in the banquet, but it is the highest etiquette in hospitality.
Shisanlang emptied all the remaining grains of the fox clan, and the queen could not have known it. Although she forced herself to smile, Wu Zhongyuan could still feel her depression.
After the queen was toasted, Wu Zhongyuan solemnly stated, "Brother Wang, Mrs. Wang, the bear clan is short of rice and grain, and the fox tribe is generously donated. This is a great kindness for living people to save lives. As the saying goes, great kindness will not be thanked. If the fox tribe encounters danger in the future, the bear clan will definitely come to help. He will never betray his faith and stand by and watch."
After Wu Zhongyuan's solemn promise, the two of them were very relieved. No one wanted to be unlucky, but no one could guarantee that they would be smooth sailing in their lives, especially at the critical moment when the five seals were about to disappear and the world was about to be in chaos, Wu Zhongyuan's promise seemed particularly heavy.
Being kind is the foundation of being a human being. While admiring Wu Zhongyuan's behavior, Wu Rong and Wu Lanqing could not help but worry secretly that the fox clan is far away in the southern desert. If the five seals disappear, this place will inevitably become an enemy-occupied area. If the fox clan is really in trouble in the future, the bear clan will rush to help thousands of miles away, which is equivalent to going deep into the alone army.
The queen toasted three cups and was about to leave when someone hurriedly ran over from outside. When Shisanlang tilted his head and saw it, he left his seat and stood up, and greeted him.
This man came to report the news, not an emergency official business, but Shisanlang originally planned to set off for Youxiong in the afternoon and send him some gifts to ascend to the throne. He had already booked a bird for footwork, but just now the owner of the bird suddenly broke the contract and sent someone to refund the rent, and told him that the bird he had originally booked could not be lent to Shisanlang.
Shisanlang didn't care much about this, because he came in person, and he could hand him the gift he prepared, and there was no need to travel to Middle Earth.
However, this small link made Wu Zhongyuan feel more at ease. It seemed that Wan Shanhong was not bragging. She was mobilizing a large number of birds to transport rice and grain to Middle-earth.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Wu Rong and Wu Lanqing stood up and left, and went to chase the grain transport team. Wu Zhongyuan also took the opportunity to say goodbye to Shisanlang.
Shisanlang ordered people to send gifts prepared for him. In modern times, it is impolite to check the gift in person when giving gifts, but at this time, you must check the gift in person and then give thanks.
A medium-sized wooden box contains three small boxes, to be precise, three jewelry boxes, brand new, and it is actually agarwood. Each jewelry box has a set of exquisite jewelry.
Anyone who knows fragrance knows that agarwood is very small and rarely has a large piece. These three jewelry boxes are actually carved from complete agarwood wood, and the value of the box is far higher than the jewelry inside.
In addition to these three sets of jewelry, there is also a small yellow pocket inside. When you open the pocket, there is a small jade carved turtle inside. It is crystal clear and green all over. This thing is a hand-played piece and is used to kill time when you are free.
In modern times, if you give someone a green turtle, you must beat you up, but at this time, the turtle represents longevity, and you like to use turtles when playing with hand pieces. The token left by Qiu Yun is also a small turtle.
Seeing the agarwood, Wu Zhongyuan remembered something and took the opportunity to inquire about Lingnan from Shisanlang. He didn't have much hope at first, but he never thought that Shisanlang would know this place. At this time, Nanling and Lingnan were synonyms, referring to a mountain on Hainan Island.
After thanking him, Wu Zhongyuan left the fox clan with a wooden box. Wan Shanhong was transporting rice and grain, so he had to go home quickly to organize people to receive them...
