Chapter 234

Nie Yi got up to see off the guests, and an old servant led Liang Xiao to rest.Walking a stone's throw away along the long alley, Liang Xiao heard a tempting panting sound through the courtyard wall.He raised his head, glanced at Crescent Moon who had just climbed up the wall, and secretly sighed.

Are these shameless guys so impatient?Just after dark, he rushed to do things, he really didn't have any restraint.

Liang Xiao walked into the small courtyard, passed through a pavilion, and came to the main house facing north.The old servant stopped, and when the door curtain rang, two orchids with beautiful faces and slender figures came out from inside, bowed to Liang Xiao, walked up, and sandwiched Liang Xiao in the middle.The aroma filled the nose, and immediately made people's blood boil.

Liang Xiao sniffed, and gently pulled his arm out.The two orchids were stunned, with uneasy expressions on their faces.The old servant stepped forward, cupped his hands and asked, "If Mr. Liang doesn't like beard girls, he can change to Han girls."

Liang Xiao smiled. "Old man, that's not what I mean. These two beauties are extremely cute, but I'm currently studying archery at a critical juncture, so I shouldn't get too close to women. Old man, do you know which house my companion Xie Guanglong is in?"

The corner of the old servant's mouth twitched slightly. "knew."

"Okay, please take these two beauties to the old man, and say that I rewarded him."

The old servant blinked, but said nothing, and waved to Hu Ji.The two orchids were a little disappointed, but they didn't dare to disobey their orders. They could only look at Liang Xiao resentfully, then turned around and walked along the corridor to a room in the southeast corner.In the whole courtyard, the sound was the loudest in that room.

"Wait." Liang Xiao had an idea, and stopped the two orchids.Hu Ji turned her head, with joy in her eyes.Liang Xiao said with a smile: "This strong man has done a great service this time, please take care of the two girls to accompany him, Liang will definitely thank you very much."

Hu Ji glanced at each other, covered her lips with an embarrassed smile, nodded, and turned away.

The old servant looked at Liang Xiao quietly, and when Liang Xiao turned his head, he said: "Mr. Liang, please wait a moment, the old servant will pick two more..."

"It's really unnecessary." Liang Xiao repeatedly declined.Seeing that he was resolute, the old servant didn't insist any more, cupped his hands, turned and left.Liang Xiao entered the room, took off his coat, and said to Tu Niu'er: "Okay, you can go and find your own fun, don't stay with me."

Tu Niuer hesitated a little. "But what do you do?"

"I'm safe here, you don't have to worry. I'll call you if there's anything wrong." Liang Xiao waved his hand and drove out Tu Niu'er who couldn't wait for a long time.With Tu Niu'er's personality, it is very rare for him to be able to endure until now.

Tu Niu'er was overjoyed, went away excitedly, walked two steps and then turned back, and put the short knife in front of Liang Xiao. "Ah Xiao, keep this for self-defense."

Liang Xiao nodded.Tu Niu'er grinned and went happily.

Liang Xiao closed the door, stretched his body, and started his daily practice.Just like practicing archery with Huan Yuan at the beginning, he is now practicing his right shot every day, hoping to be as good as his left shot.He is well aware of the importance of laying the foundation, and he does not dare to be sloppy in establishing the foundation. Within a hundred days, he will not be close to women.

Even though the small courtyard was full of spring, even with the sound of panting in his ears, Liang Xiao still tried his best to focus on the circulation of Qi and blood.He is very clear about what kind of danger he is facing. At this time, the stronger his strength, the higher the chance of success.If he can make great contributions before the big man counterattacks the Xiongnu, his future will be bright. By then, there will be no beauties, so why waste precious time for a few orchids.

Liang Xiao practiced drawing the bow meticulously.

When he used to practice left shooting, he thought everything was normal, but now he also practiced right shooting, and he realized that the flow of Qi and blood on both sides of his body was not balanced.However, with the previous foundation, the progress of practice is much faster now, and it didn't take long for him to completely forget himself and enter the realm of the unity of human and bow.

-

Nie Yi stood on the porch, looking in the direction of the courtyard, and remained silent.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and clenched his hands arched in his sleeves tightly, with a bit of indescribable tension in his eyes.

He has a big decision to make.

The trusted old servant reported that Liang Xiao rejected the two beautiful orchids and stayed in the house to practice alone.He was very surprised, at this age, after having survived thousands of miles, Liang Xiao didn't feel that life was short and he should enjoy himself while he was there?
This concentration is terrible.Nie Yi asked himself that he was well-informed, and he had never seen a few people with such concentration, and those who had such concentration were all people who had experienced many hardships and lived and died several times.This is the only case of someone as young as Liang Xiao.

Footsteps sounded outside the door, and Guo Wenbin walked in following the old servant.Nie Yiyi changed his expression in an instant, pulled his hand out of his sleeve, and warmly greeted him.With an inadvertent flick of his finger, the old servant understood, stood still at the door, and closed the door quietly.

Guo Wenbin tilted his head, smiled slightly, and pretended not to see him, and bowed his hand to Nie Yi.Nie Yi stretched out his hand to support his arm, led him into the room, and said with a smile: "Your father is indeed a discerning businessman, and he made such a choice just by meeting him once. This vision and courage, I am so proud of you." I'm really ashamed of myself. With the help of Mr. Liang, your family's settlement in Chang'an must be a piece of cake."

Guo Wenbin shook his head, and said with a smile: "Nie Weng is too much. My father didn't expect Mr. Liang to have such abilities at the time. He just wanted to help them out of righteousness."

"Your strength is very important. Without you as a guide, how could they come to Dawan?"

Guo Wenbin pondered for a moment, and said: "I did have some credit for being able to go to Dawan smoothly. It is due to Liang Xiao's own ability that he can survive until now. Nie Weng was able to survive under the pursuit of thousands of Xiongnu elite Beheading the head of King Hunxie is not something I can help."

Nie Yi smiled. "Wen Bin, this is the first time I've heard you praise someone so much, and it's a person of your age."

"I have always admired Nie Weng." Guo Wenbin smiled lightly, not being rude, but also having the conceit that young people often have.

Nie Yi laughed, and made a few jokes with Guo Wenbin, then changed the subject, and said, "Then why did you bring them to me? It's not as simple as just wanting to eat and drink, right? Do you want to borrow some money?" Money? Tell me, how much do you want to borrow."

Guo Wenbin was taken aback.During the banquet, Liang Xiao once expressed the idea of ​​asking Nie Yi for help, but now Nie Yi asked him how much money he wanted to borrow, obviously he was unwilling to help Liang Xiao, and was only willing to lend him the money.Guo Wenbin hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth.

"Three thousand gold."

Nie Yi frowned slightly, showing some difficulty. "Three thousand gold is not a small amount. Even if your father came to borrow it, I have to think carefully. Wen Bin, are you taking too much risk? If you lose, you will still be able to afford it?"

"Nie Weng, I also know that the risk is high, but the high risk also means that the reward is great. I was afraid that Nie Weng would not agree, so I only said three thousand gold. In fact, I really wanted to borrow ten thousand gold."

Nie Yi looked at Guo Wenbin in surprise. "Good boy, your appetite is really not small."

Guo Wenbin smiled. "Nie Weng, three thousand gold is indeed not a small amount. However, if my father is here, he will definitely support my decision and even invest more."

Nie Yi sized up Guo Wenbin for a while, then laughed silently.He knew very well about Guo Wenbin that although he was young, he had great foresight. In 30 to [-] years, he was likely to succeed Guo Yu and become the head of the Guo family.Such a young junior attached so much importance to Liang Xiao and was willing to make a big bet, it must have strong confidence in Liang Xiao himself.

"Tell me, what makes you value Liang Xiao so much? You are willing to make such a big gamble. If you convince me, I will lend it to you, otherwise, you won't get any money."

Guo Wenbin was helpless.The Guo family intends to settle in Chang'an, and most of their assets have been withdrawn.If he wanted to support Liang Xiao to go on, he could only borrow money from Nie Yi.This is not a small amount of money, and it is difficult to persuade Nie Yi to lend him the money without sufficient reasons.

Guo Wenbin explained in detail what happened over two months.He talked about how Liang Xiao killed the Guluhu, how he gave up everything, and traveled day and night, exhausting King Hunxie's elite cavalry, and finally lured King Hunxie up the mountain. Kill King Hunxie.

Among them, he specifically mentioned Liang Xiao's perseverance.No matter how critical the situation is, he will not lose heart.No matter how great the temptation is, he will never lose himself.Even between life and death, he has been insisting on tempering his shooting skills.

Nie Yi listened intently, asking a few questions from time to time.Through Guo Wenbin's narration, his understanding of Liang Xiao deepened.

He somewhat understood why Wang Hui chose such a young man who seemed a bit rash to take up this important task.

"In that case, it's really worth the gamble." Nie Yi smiled and said, "Wen Bin, I trust your vision, and I will lend you three thousand gold."

"Thank you Nie Yi for your generosity. I will make a written statement. If there is something to be said, if Nie Weng brings the written statement to Yanmen, my father will definitely pay back the principal with interest."

Nie Yi smiled, turned around and got a pen and ink, and asked Guo Wenbin to write down the loan receipt.Guo Wenbin took it at once, handed it to Nie Yi for a review, put it in a blue bag, took out his private seal, and stamped the seal on the clay.

Nie Yi put away the green pouch and smiled slightly: "You said just now that you wanted to borrow ten thousand gold, is ten thousand gold enough?"

After borrowing money, Guo Wenbin felt much more relaxed. "Should be enough."

"Well, the remaining seven thousand gold is my investment."

Guo Wenbin was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly raised his head.Nie Yi looked at him with a smile.The corner of Guo Wenbin's mouth twitched for a long time, and he pointed at Nie Yi. "Nie Weng, you are a bit disrespectful."

"Hahaha, it's better to be careful when doing business." Nie Yi turned around from behind the case, hugged Guo Wenbin's shoulder affectionately, and patted him hard. "Wen Bin, if you win the bet, I owe you a favor and give you a big gift, how about it? Wen Bin, Yuan'er has been thinking about you, how about it, are you interested in being the son-in-law of my Nie family? "
