After returning to the inn A pint of incense, Yang Rui took Cheng Yu, Gao Shun, and Zhang Ning out of the storage ring and sat down with Sun Qian.
For Yang Rui's action of using the storage ring, Sun Qian was only a little surprised and returned to normal. It could be seen that he had a concept of storage ring and other props. Therefore, Sun Qian's knowledge was very broad. From this point, it could be seen that Sun Qian was extraordinary.
"This friend, we meet again, I haven't asked how I should address you."
Seeing Cheng Yu appear, this time Sun Qian took the initiative to greet him.
"This one is Cheng Yu, my name is Zhong De, may I ask your name?"
"Ah! Uh … it turned out to be Cheng Yu, Cheng Zhongde! So that's how it is! So that's how it is! I should have thought of it, no wonder! No wonder … this one is Sun Qian, my name is Gongyou, greetings Zhong De! "
"Oh? Are you Sun Gongyou of Beihai County? "
"Zhong De actually knows this one, it is indeed this one's honor! When Zhong De and Blazing Sun appeared together, I should have thought of it. Yan Province's Cheng Zhongde and City Lord Blazing Sun cooperated with each other and eliminated almost all the yellow turban forces in the province. This matter has long been spread in the Qingzhou area. Sun Qian certainly knows about it, but he didn't think of it at that time …
Until today, when City Lord Blazing Sun was conferred the title in the West Garden, Sun Qian didn't think of Zhong De's identity. Now that I think about it, he was really stupid! However, I and Zhong De are fated after all. I didn't expect to meet again today. It is really Sun Qian's blessing! "
"Gongyou said so, it is a bit too much. You are overestimating Cheng Yu! As for the elimination of the yellow turban forces, I think Blazing Sun and I didn't put much effort … But Gongyou, Zhong De has heard about you a long time ago … "
"…"
Cheng Yu and Sun Qian introduced each other, and they quickly became familiar with each other. It was a bit cold to Yang Rui, and the two began to chat with each other. However, this was also a result that Yang Rui was happy to see. The more familiar Sun Qian and Cheng Yu was with Yang Rui, the higher the chances of Yang Rui to.
Although Cheng Yu's Cheng Yu, from Cheng Yu's previous actions, from Cheng. . he....... from the beginning, from the beginning to the two historical figures....... from the beginning, Cheng... from the beginning to subduing the two historical historical figures...... from the time..... from the beginning. from the beginning, the, he. from from from the beginning to to to the two historical historical historical historical
In the previous cooperation with Yang Rui, Cheng Yu had considered Yang Rui many times. During the Yellow Turban Uprising plot, Cheng Yu and Yang Rui cooperated for the first time. Cheng Yu didn't take any of the spoils. They all benefited Yang Rui. After that, when they cooperated to eliminate Bu Ji's Yellow Turban Tribe, the situation was similar.
Therefore, Yang Rui had reason to believe that Cheng Yu and Sun Qian's contact would benefit Yang Rui in the end.
"Gongyou, these two are General Blazing Sun's subordinates. They are great people. Cheng Yu introduced them to Gongyou. This is Gao Shun, this is Gao Shun, this is Ning 'er … "
After Cheng Yu and Sun Qian chatted for a while, he introduced Gao Shun and Zhang Ning to Sun Qian.
At present, Gao Shun and Zhang Ning were not famous people. The two of them didn't like to speak, they didn't even have a name. Sun Qian naturally didn't know the two of them. However, Sun Qian should have seen the uniqueness of these two people. When Cheng Yu introduced them, he kept nodding. He should have discovered the strength of these two people.
This possibility was very high. Although Yang Rui didn't know the specific skills Sun Qian had, Sun Qian should be a famous person. He should be an intellectual historical figure. Therefore, it was not surprising that he had some special skills.
"Gao Shun greets Mr. Sun Gongyou …"
"Ning 'er greets Mr. Sun Gongyou …"
Gao Shun and Zhang Ning didn't have a name, so they only greeted Sun Qian with their names. Among them, Zhang Ning simply followed Cheng Yu's tone and called herself "Ning 'er". She didn't reveal her real name, although she wasn't famous. It wouldn't be good if others recognized her as the daughter of Yellow Turban Chief Zhang Jiao.
"Gao Shun, Miss Ning 'er, I am Sun Qian. Greetings!"
Sun Qian looked at Gao Shun and Zhang Ning for a while. His expression became more and more surprised. It seemed that Sun Qian should also have a skill to spy on other people's strength or cognition. The change in his expression was already very obvious.
Yang Rui had been paying attention to Sun Qian. This change naturally fell into his eyes. Sun Qian didn't show much surprise when he saw Cheng Yu twice in a row. It seemed that he couldn't see through Cheng Yu's true strength.
This possibility was very high. When Cheng Yu first met Sun Qian, he had the intention of winning him over, indicating that he had a general understanding of Sun Qian's strength. On the other hand, Sun Qian didn't have a big reaction to seeing Cheng Yu. It was not clear whether it was because he couldn't see through Cheng Yu, or he only had a vague understanding of Cheng Yu …
The mutual understanding between the two could be seen from their conversation when they met. At that time, Sun Qian looked like he suddenly realized something, indicating that he might only have a general understanding of Cheng Yu, but Cheng Yu had already guessed Sun Qian's general identity. There were still some differences between the two.
After getting to know the few people, Sun Qian was also very surprised that Yang Rui could gather these people around him. His understanding and perception of Yang Rui naturally changed a lot. During this time, Yang Rui didn't have many opportunities to speak, but this change was subtle. Gao Shun and Zhang Ning's strength unknowingly raised Yang Rui's status by a lot.
After they got to know each other, they naturally couldn't avoid drinking a few cups of wine. During this time in the Eastern Han, not only did martial artists like to drink, but intellectual historical figures like Cheng Yu and Sun Qian would also often drink a few cups in their free time.
"Sir Sun, let me raise another cup for you …"
"… I don't dare! I don't dare! Governor Blazing Sun, you can just call him by his title. I'm afraid that only Zhongde can be called Sir here … "
It had to be admitted that wine was a mysterious thing. Yang Rui, Cheng Yu, and Sun Qian were more restrained when drinking, while Gao Shun and Zhang Ning didn't drink at all. However, after the alcohol slowly took effect, the atmosphere of the few people became much more lively, causing Sun Qian and Yang Rui's familiarity to quickly increase.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Sun Qian actually slowly agreed to work together with Yang Rui to handle the affairs of the Qingzhou Provincial Governor's office. When Sun Qian heard that Yang Rui's group was about to attack the Xiongnu, he actually took the initiative to go with Yang Rui's group. This was very much in line with Yang Rui's intentions!
Cheng Yu and Sun Qian were both willing to go with Yang Rui the moment they heard that Yang Rui was going to attack the Xiongnu. In fact, there was a deeper reason for this. Ever since the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu had constantly invaded the borders, committing many acts of burning, killing, and pillaging. The Han people had a deep enmity towards the Xiongnu, especially scholars like Cheng Yu and Sun Qian. They had a different understanding of the Xiongnu.
Although the Xiongnu were currently in a disadvantageous state, Cheng Yu and Sun Qian had a more accurate grasp of the current situation in the Han court. The Xiongnu would always be a huge threat! It was also because of this that the two of them were the first to respond when Yang Rui mentioned attacking the Xiongnu.
When the banquet between Yang Rui's group and Sun Qian ended, it was already past noon. After the few of them went to rest, there wasn't enough time to return to Grand Mountain City. Thus, Yang Rui decided to stay in Luoyang for the night, and the few of them agreed.
In fact, one of the reasons why Yang Rui decided to stay in Luoyang was because he wanted to buy some blueprints for upgrading buildings in the Imperial City. The blueprints sold in the county cities were at the Intermediate level at best, and the county cities only had the occasional Advanced level blueprints.
At present, most of the buildings in Grand Mountain City had already been upgraded to the Advanced level, and the blueprints required were also much higher. The blueprints sold in the county cities were no longer able to satisfy Yang Rui's needs. Moreover, the buildings in Yang Rui's other territories also needed to be upgraded, so he needed to buy some blueprints.
Coincidentally, Yang Rui had taken in the little beggar, so he was very familiar with Luoyang's Imperial City. After Yang Rui helped the little beggar eat and drink to his heart's content, he went out with Yang Rui to buy some items.
It was already early in the evening, and due to the award ceremony being held that day, there were many more people in Luoyang. After asking around, Yang Rui found out that the mission segment of the award ceremony was not over yet. The largest night market outside the West Garden was having a riddle-guessing event. It was a small mission of this segment.
Moreover, the mission segment of the award ceremony would last for three days, which was unexpected to Yang Rui. At the beginning, Yang Rui did not ask Zuo Feng about the mission segment of the award ceremony, and Zuo Feng did not mention it either. The purpose of this segment was to celebrate, and most of it was to give out gold coins, silver coins, and small gifts. Occasionally, there would be a chain mission, and the final reward would mostly return to gold coins and gifts. To Yang Rui, it did not have much meaning.
When Yang Rui and the little beggar passed by the night market, they just happened to participate in the riddle-guessing event. What Yang Rui did not expect was that the little beggar was actually educated. Yang Rui could not guess two or three riddles, but the little beggar actually guessed seven or eight of them correctly in one go! Perhaps this was the reason why Cheng Yu wanted Yang Rui to take in the little beggar back then?
The little beggar obtained three gold coins and five silver coins as a reward and was overjoyed. However, Yang Rui needed to buy various items, so the little beggar followed Yang Rui and left with great reluctance.
The little beggar was very familiar with the layout of Luoyang's Imperial City. He quickly brought Yang Rui to find a few special-grade blueprints, but these blueprints were a little expensive. Moreover, the construction required various craftsmen of the corresponding level, so Yang Rui did not buy a single special-grade blueprint!
