C458 Lend Me Something



C458 Lend Me Something

He and Yuh Qingcheng had been in Gusu town for three days, and all of their expenses had been generously paid by Ding Dian. Yang Xuan had gained a lot of knowledge, and his relationship with Yuh Qingcheng had also improved a lot.    

    

Three days later, the two of them came to Myriad Treasure Pavilion again, and they got a long list from Ding Dian.    

    

"Yes, in these ten years, we have collected more than five hundred thousand armaments. The ones in front can't be used anymore after so many years. I will only list the ones in the last five years for you. The one hundred and fifty thousand pieces of equipment are all in these people's hands. Go and look for them. Don't sell me out!"    

    

"Of course I know what I'm doing."    

    

Yang Xuan smiled and took the name list. He took a few glances at it and memorized all the names on it. Then, he burned the name list.    

    

"Alright, there will be more trouble if the night comes. I will go and find them now."    

    

"Hey, hey, hey! Don't worry!"    

    

"What's wrong?" Wang Yao asked.    

    

Yang Xuan was about to walk out when he was suddenly stopped by Ding Dian. He looked a little confused.    

    

Ding Dian smiled and said in a low voice, "When I was tidying up the accounts, I found something interesting. Do you want to hear it?"    

    

Yang Xuan frowned. "What is it? Why is it so mysterious?"    

    

"You will know when you hear it."    

    

Ding Dian smiled and walked to Yang Xuan. He whispered a few words into Yang Xuan's ear, which caused a wave in Yang Xuan's heart.    

    

"There is actually such a thing. It is really interesting. Alright, this matter is urgent, I'll be leaving first. " Yang Xuan nodded thoughtfully and said goodbye to Ding Dian. He brought Yuh Qingcheng out of the door and sighed in his heart.    

    

On Yang Xuan's name list, every single one of them was a major power. They were all shocked by what they saw. No wonder Liu Lao'er was in such a difficult situation at that time.    

    

The first one to bear the brunt of the attack was the richest man in Jiangnan Prefecture, the Zhu family. They had fifty thousand in their hands, almost a third of all the armaments.    

    

The Zhu family was powerful. Yang Xuan didn't act rashly. He brought Yuh Qingcheng back to the Commander Prefecture. Although Yuh Qingcheng had some doubts in her heart, she had been very happy after being coaxed by Yang Xuan for the past few days. She had to listen to him.    

    

When the two of them came over this time, the gatekeeper at the door had changed to a different young man. The old gatekeeper probably wouldn't have a good ending. However, Yang Xuan didn't have the mood to worry about him. As soon as he walked to the door, the gatekeeper welcomed him.    

    

"This lowly one greets the marquis. Whether the marquis wants to see Commander or not, this lowly one will immediately report it to you."    

    

"Oh, isn't it noon now? Commander is taking his afternoon break. Do you dare to disturb him?"    

    

Yang Xuan asked with a smile that was not a smile. He still remembered the first time he came here and the scene where he stood under the shade of the tree and hid from the scorching sun. When he compared it with the current scene, he immediately felt emotional.    

    

The gatekeeper immediately smiled and said, "You must be joking, my lord. Commander has already told me who you are. No matter when you come, I will take good care of you."    

    

After saying that, the gatekeeper invited Yang Xuan and Yuh Qingcheng in. They went to the hall and sat for a while. Soon, Northern Heavens Profound walked out from behind the screen.    

    

"So it's Marquis of Lo Capital. We just parted a few days ago. What business do you have with me this time? Do you need my help?" Beicang asked with a smile. He slowly sat down and woke up his head.    

    

"That's right. I'm here to borrow something from Commander." Yang Xuan's eyes were deep, and there was a strange light flashing in his eyes.    

    

Immediately, Bei Cangxuan had a bad feeling in his heart. He carefully asked, "I don't know what you want to borrow. If it is an ordnance, it is really..."    

    

"I don't want to borrow an ordnance. I want to borrow someone!"    

    

Yang Xuan's words were loud and clear. After listening to what he said, he was stunned on the spot. The teacup in his hand that he had just raised trembled. The beard at the corner of his mouth also trembled slightly, as if he had heard something incredible.    

    

"This old man didn't seem to have heard it clearly just now. What did the Lord say he wanted to borrow?"    

    

"Borrowing someone. Borrowing one thousand elite soldiers from Commander Prefecture. I will return it in a few days."    

    

Since when did this logic exist?    

    

Bei Cangxuan's eyes widened, and his mind seemed to be buzzing. He was startled by the young lord's words. The various military forces were strictly controlled, and they had never heard of the concept of borrowing troops. Wasn't this a joke?    

    

It would be fine if he borrowed it to return the favor, but if he didn't return it, wouldn't he, Commander, still need to go out and recruit troops?    

    

Just as he was about to reject the offer, Yang Xuan suddenly smiled and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Commander. Recently, I have heard of an interesting thing. I wonder if Commander wants to know about it?"    

    

Bei Cangxuan frowned and said, "If there is anything, just tell me."    

    

"I heard that there are at least two hundred thousand weapons forged by Jiangnan Prefecture every year, but there are only around one hundred and fifty thousand in Commander Prefecture's warehouse. I wonder where the fifty thousand in the middle went?"    

    

"Nonsense!"    

    

Bei Cangxuan immediately slammed the table and stood up, as if he had been slandered. He was so angry that his beard trembled and his breathing became rapid, as if he wanted to argue with Yang Xuan.    

    

"The amount of money that is created every year will be recorded in Commander Prefecture's records and reported to the Imperial Court. The amount will be as many as you want. This old man will never do anything to you!"    

    

Yang Xuan's words were rather cryptic just now. Before he could say that it was him, he had already stood up, which made Yang Xuan even more certain.    

    

Yang Xuan was calm and unhurried. He leisurely took a sip of tea. Then, he continued, "I didn't say that Commander did something to him. What I meant was... Could there be someone lying in the middle and stealing the money? Even Commander was deceived?"    

    

Bei Cangxuan frowned, and just as he was about to say something, he was immediately interrupted by Yang Xuan.    

    

"People's words are scary, Commander. Even if this is fake news, it might affect Commander's reputation. Commander should know that I have joined State Hall not long ago. Although I didn't learn any skills, I have a good relationship with the palace master..."    

    

At this point, Yang Xuan's eyes suddenly became shrewd, and his tone became more serious. "Why don't I report this to the palace master and help him regain his reputation?"    

    

Bei Cangxuan immediately felt a sudden clap of thunder in his ears. He sat down in embarrassment and drank a mouthful of tea in a hurry. He muttered, "This... This is a small matter... How can I trouble the palace master..."    

    

"That's right. The palace master has a lot of things to do every day. He has to deal with all kinds of matters. If this matter is reported to the palace master, it might upset the old man and cause him to do something." Yang Xuan nodded in agreement.    

    

"Haha, it's still the marquis who is reasonable. How about this, just now, how many people did the marquis say he wanted to borrow?"    

    

"Two thousand elite soldiers."    

    

As he spoke, Yang Xuan doubled the number of elite soldiers. When he heard this, it caused Bei Cangxuan's qi and blood to surge. However, when he thought of that terrifying State Hall Palace Master, Bei Cangxuan still gritted his teeth.    

    

"Someone come! Two thousand elite soldiers, protect the marquis and follow him!"
