Chapter 607: If I could do it all over again, I would not step through that door
Qin Guan swore that if time could go back, he would never make the same mistake again... No... He felt that it was a mistake for him to go out today.
If I hadn't been crazy and wanted to imitate those literati who drank tea or went to a restaurant to drink and eat meat, how could so many things have happened?
But the fact is that Qin Guan is standing in front of Ma Chao with trembling legs. He doesn't need anyone to introduce him, he has already heard what the people downstairs call the person in front of him.
Ma Chao——
It was the Xiliang general who single-handedly killed Zhang Lu in the midst of thousands of troops.
Ma Teng...not to mention...the current Zhongchangshi, the Han Dynasty's General Fubo, who in the land of Guanzhong has not heard of the name of Xiliang Ma Teng?
Then there is the prefect Zhong Yao... When he heard that Zhong Yao was coming, Qin Guan was ready to die here.
Absolutely no, he is a local gangster in Chang'an, but a local gangster can't suppress the big boss of the government... Zhong Yao is the only person he is afraid of.
Think about it again, the young man behind you... there is Ma Chao's sister beside him... he is the uncle of the Ma family?
Qin Guan didn't dare to think about it anymore, because no matter which answer he gave, he would be dead.
In one breath, Qin Guan had thousands of words of defense he wanted to say, but he was so nervous that he could only move his mouth but could not make a sound.
Ma Chao looked at the fat man in front of him with confusion, looked at his twitching mouth, frowned and asked:
"What's wrong with you? Did you burn your mouth while eating?"
"Mr. Yi? Who is this person? If he wasn't someone you knew, I would have thrown him downstairs?"
Ma Chao passed over the trembling Qin Guan and shouted towards Yi Xiaotian in the distance.
Yi Xiaotian greeted with a smile:
"General Meng Qi, that person is our distinguished guest. General, please invite him over. We have something to talk about!"
Yi Xiaotian smiled. Qin Guan looked back with a slumped face and saw Yi Xiaotian's smiling face, and tears flowed down his face.
Now he really doesn't know whether to thank Yi Xiaotian or scold Yi Xiaotian.
What he said just now was obviously Yi Xiaotian trying to save himself.
"I see."
Ma Chao suddenly dissipated the murderous look in his eyes, grinned at Qin Guan and said:
"Turns out he's an honored guest! Hahaha, disrespectful! I'm dismounting. If you don't see me outside, just call me Meng Qi. Meng Qi is a rough man. If there is any offense, please don't blame me."
"Hehe...hehehe...what...you are joking, general, you did a good job! I...I am Qin Guan, I am...a businessman doing business..."
With a sad face, Qin Guan returned to the place where the dream started under the hostage of Ma Chao - unfortunately, it was not a beautiful dream, but a nightmare.
——
The girls at the banquet dispersed and went downstairs to wait. Yi Xiaotian and others sat around a table, made tea, and started discussing military matters——
The room was full of big guys, all ruthless people who could decide the future of Chang'an, but Qin Guan was caught in the middle, and he didn't even dare to breathe.
In the end, it was Yi Xiaotian who spoke first, intending to deal with Qin Guan's matter:
"Boss Qin, why don't we continue the previous topic?"
"Everything...is as you say!"
"Haha! Boss Qin is a cheerful person. Let Yi make it clear. In the near future, I plan to open a blacksmith shop near Chang'an. Now I still have thousands of plundered armors in my house. Qin
Boss, do me Yi Xiaotian a favor and help me deal with this batch of soldiers... When I open a blacksmith shop in the future, Yi will definitely cooperate with Boss Qin again."
"No... no problem!"
Qin Guan resisted the urge to cry, and tremblingly agreed to Yi Xiaotian's request.
Yi Xiaotian smiled and patted Qin Guan on the shoulder and said to him:
"Of course... If it were just a blacksmith shop, I wouldn't bother Boss Qin like this. To be honest, Chang'an will have a lot of action in the near future. By then, there will definitely be a demand for more than just soldiers and armor.
Increase, there will also be a significant increase in materials for siege equipment and so on... I have to leave Chang'an recently, and I would like to ask Boss Qin to take care of me during this time. I asked a few girls to handle the business for me, but in
Boss Qin must be better at cargo routes."
Yi Xiaotian's words were circuitous, but they were just stage words. Under the gaze of such a circle of big bosses, no matter how tactful Yi Xiaotian's words were, they were essentially threats from Yi Xiaotian.
Qin Guan didn't dare to say the word "no", his face drooped, and he nodded like chaff.
Yi Xiaotian almost robbed him. How could Qin Guan be so clear in his mind that he could become the number one military merchant in Chang'an?
In today's transaction, he has paid off his decades-old capital. Not only did he have to help Yi Xiaotian deal with the armor supplies at a loss, but he also helped Yi Xiaotian contact the source of goods, manage some land for Yi Xiaotian, and finally died.
He even wants to give up the armor market that he controls...
This was like vomiting out all the fat he was about to swallow, which would make anyone else feel uncomfortable.
But...he had no choice.
"Just...just do as you say! If...there's nothing else, let's...let's say goodbye first?"
Qin Guan smiled awkwardly and moved his butt out as he spoke.
"Boss Qin!"
Unexpectedly, Ma Chao on the side suddenly called him in a calm voice.
Qin Guan wished he could fly up from his chair. He dug his pants with both hands and tore them. He had to apologize and replied with a smile:
"General, general, general... general, do you have any other orders?"
"Hahaha, nothing's wrong. I just see you're a little nervous, Boss Qin. Remember to hold your sword -"
Ma Chao smiled meaningfully, patted Qin Guan's shoulder, and handed his sword to Qin Guan's hand.
Qin Guan quickly thanked Ma Chao for the reminder, nodded and was about to stand up, but suddenly his breathing stopped.
Because he saw that what Ma Chao handed over was clearly a piece of iron that had been twisted into scrap metal.
Taking over the twisted sword dully, Qin Guan nodded mechanically, and then slowly left.
Gulu——
Qin Guan didn't know how he was thrown out of the teahouse, but...when he came back to his senses, he had already returned home.
Qin Guan, still in shock, looked at the sword on the table that even had Ma Chao's fingerprints on it.
"What sin have I done?"
To a certain extent, Qin Guan's luck is pretty good... He bumped into all the big guys in Chang'an City once he went out. It's just... such an experience doesn't seem to be good for the heart.
——
Qin Guan is obviously just an episode today.
The outsiders dispersed, and when Yang Song and Han Sui, who had already been brought to the teahouse, knelt in front of everyone, no one was laughing anymore.
Ma Tie, Ma Dai and others stood by, while Ma Teng looked at his sworn brother with a sad face.
Ma Chao's hands were clenched squeaking. Only the trembling Yang Song and the disheveled Han Sui could best understand the anger of the group of people in front of them at this moment.
