Su Chen walked to the stall with colorful tiger skins and asked the stall owner who was full of gangster spirit: "Boss, did you kill this big insect yourself?"
"nonsense!"
The big man obviously had a bad temper, and he said directly and unhappily: "In the entire village, besides me, who else can subdue such a beast?!"
Su Chen didn't care about Khan's temper. After all, if he could really hunt tigers, he would indeed have something to be proud of.
The big man took a look at Su Chen and the others, and thought, these people are well-dressed, and they don't look like ordinary people. They are probably playboys who come here to hunt.
"Boss, I want to ask you something."
Su Chen smiled and said, "Have you ever seen an elephant in the mountains?"
Hearing this, the big man frowned. Is it possible that this boy who is as thin as a bamboo pole is still hunting elephants?
"I've seen him occasionally."
The big man nodded.
"Then can you kill an elephant?" Su Chen continued to ask.
"this……"
The big man hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Yes! Hunting an elephant is not difficult. As long as this beast likes to hide in the deep mountains and old forests, it is more troublesome to find it."
"What, do you want to kill an elephant?"
"good!"
Su Chen nodded and said generously: "As long as you help me kill an elephant, the price is whatever you want!"
"real?"
The big man thought for a while and asked tentatively: "Is a hundred strings feasible?"
"Um?"
Hearing this, Su Chen frowned.
Seeing this, the big man thought that what he said was too high, so he was ready to lower the price.
But who knows, before he could say anything, Su Chen offered him a reward that he considered to be an "astronomical figure."
"Isn't this too little? As long as you can hunt a bigger elephant, it won't be a problem to give you a thousand guan."
In Su Chen's opinion, one hundred strings is really too shabby.
If his plan can go smoothly, let alone giving the big man a thousand guan, it will not be impossible.
"Okay, then it's settled!"
The big man hurriedly agreed, fearing that Su Chen would regret it.
"Master, just wait for my good news. I will go into the mountains to hunt elephants for you now!"
With that said, the big man prepared to close the stall and then go back to prepare tools to go into the mountain.
"Don't worry, I have one more request." Su Chen quickly stopped this impatient man.
"You said that as long as you give me money, I will accept any request!" the big man said very roughly.
Su Chen said: "My request is very simple. You just need to ensure that the elephant's bones are intact. Otherwise, if the bones are broken, it will be worthless."
"Okay! Don't worry, Master!"
The big man patted his strong chest and said confidently: "The elephant bones will definitely be well protected for you by then. Then I will go back and prepare things to go into the mountains."
Su Chen nodded and said: "Okay, then I will live here for a few days. After you catch the elephant, just come to me."
After settling this matter, Su Chen was in a good mood. He led everyone to buy a lot of game at the market, then rented a house and started a pure natural barbecue feast.
At the dinner table, Princess Changle asked curiously: "Brother Su Chen, what do you want the elephant bones for?"
"I'm ready to be a big baby!"
Su Chen said with a smile: "Then we will transport it back to Chang'an and give it to Li Er to earn some money and help support our family."
Bang!
Hearing this, Li Junxian got excited and dropped the wild boar kebab in his hand to the ground.
He and Li Chengqian looked at each other, both of them had their backs crossed, and felt an unknown premonition.
Last time, Su Chen used a prism to defraud His Majesty Li Er of millions of dollars. He knew everything about it.
Su Chen actually wants to cheat money now?!
In order to protect His Majesty Li Er's pocket, Li Junxian hurriedly said: "Master Su Chen, haven't you already defrauded a lot of money from His Majesty before?"
"We people in the Tang Dynasty don't live a very wealthy life, so your Majesty probably doesn't have much money now."
"Oh, this is wrong. How can Li Er not have any money now?"
Su Chen shook his head and said: "I counted the days and this year's national tax should have been put into the treasury. Li Er is very rich now!"
Li Junxian swallowed and asked, "How much do you want to cheat this time?"
"I have always been a practical person and not greedy."
Su Chen waved his hand and said with a smile: "Just one-third of his treasury will be enough!"
Although Su Chen said it lightly, in the ears of Li Junxian and Li Chengqian, it was like a thunderbolt from the blue!
Damn it, His Majesty’s treasury will suffer this time!
Now Su Chen can try to make the noise as small as possible when the time comes.
Li Junxian sighed in his heart, and then asked: "But what kind of rare treasure can be made from the elephant's bones?"
"This... I won't be able to tell you clearly for a while."
Su Chen touched his chin and said, "I'll tell you when I'm done."
After finishing the meal, Li Junxian eagerly summoned his subordinates and ordered: "Now, hurry back to Chang'an and hand over this secret letter to His Majesty!"
Watching the knight dash away, Li Junxian murmured: "I hope your majesty can survive this time."
…
In the past few days, Su Chen was at the foot of Daliang Mountain, taking Princess Changle and Xiao Sizi around to enjoy the mountains and rivers. They looked at the flowers here and caught fish there. They lived a happy life.
I have to say that the natural environment in ancient times was really good. Not only was there no PM2.5 and haze in the sky, but there were also all kinds of beautiful scenery.
On this day, Su Chen and others had just had lunch and were about to go out for a walk, but they heard a burst of noise coming from the market.
I walked over curiously and took a look, and was pleasantly surprised!
It turns out that his elephant has arrived!
The big man I had only seen for a few days was greeting many people and dragging an oversized cart, and on the cart was a huge elephant!
After the boat stopped, the man walked straight towards Su Chen
"Young Master, you are lucky to have fulfilled your destiny. The elephant you wanted is here!"
Su Chen came closer, looked at it carefully, and nodded. He was very satisfied!
This is definitely an adult elephant, with a body length of more than seven meters. Maybe it is the king of elephants!
I didn’t expect that this big man could actually hunt such a big elephant!
Moreover, the elephant is completely preserved as a whole. Except for a few big holes on its head, there are no wounds on its body.
"Old Zhao, go get him a thousand coins!"
Su Chen waved his hand and continued: "Cut off all the meat for me and distribute it to the people. Just give me the bones."
"Hello!"
The big man accepted the money and began to cut the elephant according to Su Chen's instructions.
