Hearing Zhang Xiaobao's words, Cuan Mo 'a nodded in agreement. Originally, he did not intend to do anything bad. He had already seen that the people of Tang were very supportive of Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.
If he angered them, not only would they not help him collect salt, but the merchants would also not come to trade. How would he live in the future? He only said that the medicine he exchanged was very good. If he had a headache or fever, he did not need to ask for help. He only needed to take two pills.
"I have already sent someone to inform my king. When the time comes, my king may send someone to summon you. I dare not be rude to you." Cuan Mo 'a expressed his attitude first. Otherwise, if the two misunderstood and directly left, where would he find salt?
He also mentioned that the leader on his side was the Great Tang's appointed vassal king. He hoped that he could use his status as the leader to pressure the two of them and make them stay for a few more days. When the time came, it would be easier for them to dig for salt.
Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were indifferent. They looked at the people of the other side's tribe and estimated the fighting strength of the other side. It was not that they wanted to fight with the other side, but when they were ready to win, they would not win too much so that they could improve communication.
"When the time comes, you can go and see our king. Don't be afraid. Our king will entertain you with wine and dance," Cuan Mo 'a added.
Zhang Xiaobao finally spoke. "We don't have time. Tell someone to tell him that we are not going to patrol his place this time. Let him come here by himself and wait for three days. If he does not come in three days, then don't come. If he wants to see the song and dance, he will bring his own people and wine. We did not bring much."
"That is our king." Cuan Mo 'a was dissatisfied. The vassal king given by your emperor has a seal. You dare to let our king come to see you?
Before Zhang Xiaobao could explain, the merchant Fan Fan came over.
He said to Cuan Mo 'a, "Brother Mo' a, if King Cuan Gui knows that Xiao Bao and Cuckoo are here, he will be very happy and will personally come to see you. On my side, even His Majesty has to personally find Xiao Bao and Cuckoo if something special happens. Except for their relatives, no one can order them. "
"What about you? They sent people to protect you. " If Fan Fan had not lied to him, this Xiao Bao or Cuckoo was definitely a heaven-like existence in the Great Tang.
Without waiting for Fan Fan to answer, Cuan Mo 'a asked Zhang Xiaobao, "Can you see your emperor as you please?"
"It's not casual. In Chang 'an, we try our best not to go there when the court is in session. We also don't disturb Her Majesty when she sleeps. The former is because my father is an official in the imperial court. If we go over, it won't be good for us to stand there. If we stand too high up, we will press down on my father, and the etiquette will be disrupted. If we stand too low up, the other officials will be afraid. The latter is because he's resting. It's not good to disturb him, right? What if he's pampering someone, right? "
Zhang Xiaobao explained, winking at Cuan Mo Ah at the end. It was easy to get closer to a man when talking about men.
Cuan Mo 'a did not feel that their relationship was close at all. Instead, it felt even more distant. He felt that the two of them should not be standing in front of him and talking casually. Normally, he should be kneeling at their feet. An envoy from the Celestial Empire with such great authority.
"What if there's an emergency that requires the emperor to deal with? Is pampering a woman more important, or are national affairs more important? "Cuan Mo Ah asked carefully.
Fan Fan continued, "If there's no emergency that requires Your Majesty to deal with, as long as Xiao Bao and Cuckoo stay in the capital, they will make the decision for themselves. There's no need for Your Majesty to worry about them. Your Majesty can pamper them as you wish.
Also, as for what you asked me just now, I didn't order them. They sent troops to protect me because I'm a Tang citizen. However, I can actually ask them to do something, and they usually won't refuse. Isn't that right, Xiao Bao? "
"Yes, but there's a prerequisite," Zhang Xiaobao admitted frankly.
"I know. I can't do anything that will harm the Great Tang." Fan Fan was satisfied. He knew that Xiao Bao only needed to say a few words today. If he asked again, Xiao Bao would not refuse. There was no need for witnesses or a contract. Xiao Bao's words were more reliable than any guarantee.
"Brother Fan, didn't you say that no one can order them around?" Cuan Mo Ah was confused …
"I said that if they have nothing to do, officials can't order them around. I didn't say anything about ordinary people. For example, when they pass by a village in the Great Tang, a villager comes up and says, 'Xiao Bao, help me repair my house'. Xiao Bao will send people to help repair the house, and at the same time, repair the houses of the other villagers as well. "
Fan Fan said in a proud tone.
Cuan Mo Ah finally understood what was going on. Although he had never experienced it, he felt the same way. It turned out that the two people in front of him were such existences in the Great Tang! Their power could compete with the emperor of the Great Tang, and when they loved the people, they could become the most ordinary person to interact with ordinary people.
They were existences that the officials feared, but were also loved and respected by the people. No wonder Fan Fan said that if he offended these two people, the people of the Great Tang would fight to the death with him. How could such people exist in this world?
Should he first express his position and agree to join the Great Tang, and then persuade the leader? It seemed that with such people guarding, it would be very safe.
Cuan Mo Ah hesitated for a moment. He wanted to express his opinion, but he was embarrassed. However, when he looked at Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, his eyes were full of expectation and desire.
Zhang Xiaobao saw Cuan Mo Ah's expression and knew what he was thinking. However, it seemed that it was not the right time. He needed to wait, so he said, "Let's take a look at our weapons first."
Cuan Mo Ah immediately put away his thoughts and nodded. "Okay."
"Do you see the small branch sticking out of the tree 20 steps away?" Zhang Xiaobao asked.
Cuan Mo Ah narrowed his eyes and looked. "I see it."
With a bang, the branch broke. Zhang Xiaobao's revolver was smoking.
Cuan Mo Ah trembled in fear and looked at the broken branch in shock. He then glanced at the thing in Zhang Xiaobao's hand and subconsciously took two steps back. He swallowed hard and said, "Again, let me see."
Zhang Xiaobao put his left hand on the hammer behind the revolver and said to Cuan Mo Ah, "Do you see the two big leaves 15 steps away and an arm's length apart? They were bitten by insects and are a little yellow. "
"Wait a minute." Cuan Mo Ah took a deep breath and rubbed his eyes. After he was ready, he nodded. "I see it."
With a bang, the two leaves floated down.
Cuan Mo Ah's eyes widened. He raised his arm and wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve. He looked at the smoking thing again and asked in disbelief, "Two at once?"
"Two at once. It was very fast. What you heard was the sound of two together," Zhang Xiaobao kindly explained to him.
"How are they so fast?" Cuan Mo Ah was scared. If there were people attacking him, there would be two in the blink of an eye.
Fan Fan was also surprised. He had never seen Xiao Bao and Cuckoo in action. He had only heard that they were very powerful. Today, he had learned something new. He clapped excitedly and asked, "Xiao Bao, is this the fastest gun in the Tang Dynasty?"
Zhang Xiaobao shook his head. "No, two of the four people around Xiaobei are faster than me. Of course, you can ignore them. Stand 30 meters away and act at the same time. As long as you don't miss, both sides will die. "
"What if it's further?" Fan Fan was curious.
"If it's 500 meters away, I'll stand and wait for him to shoot. When he runs out of bullets, I'll chase after him and beat him to the ground. Then, I'll step on him and spit on him," Zhang Xiaobao joked.
"Hehe, the revolver can't shoot that far. I know." Fan Fan laughed. At the same time, he was thinking about how to brag to the other merchants when he got back. He wanted to make them regret it when they refused his invitation.
Fan Fan could already imagine the other merchants who didn't come when he invited them this time. After hearing about his opportunity, they beat their chests and stamped their feet.
Cuan Mo Ah, on the other hand, had a lingering fear. It turned out that the four guys who didn't have any combat power beside the nine guys yesterday were so powerful. If he really had bad intentions at that time, he would probably be lying there being guarded and buried in a few days.
"Someone, bring a long gun." Zhang Xiaobao shouted behind him.
