Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 104: Old Friend in Yongzhou (fourth update, please give me a monthly ticket)
Sun Lingdie and Namco came to Taiyi Temple this time and brought back Sun Yanwan's black rabbit. Originally, he wanted to ride the black rabbit out, but when Xiao Huang saw Sun Yanwan putting the saddle on the black rabbit, he took advantage of the rabbit's unpreparedness and kicked it with one hoof, then came over triumphantly, with his head held high and his chest puffed out, looking very proud.

Sun Yanwan had no choice but to hang up the saddle for Xiao Huang and leave Hei Tu at home to recuperate.

Originally, he bought this yellow horse to ride home as a means of transportation, and he was thinking that if Qin Cheng came to redeem the horse, he would return the horse, but since Xiao Huang was so cheerful, he had no choice but to ride it first.

This time, Sun Lingdie and Namco each chose a horse. Both women changed into fancy clothes. Namco always dressed like a lady from a noble family with gorgeous clothes. This time, she changed into a fancy dress that outlined her body curves, and her figure was surprisingly domineering.

Sun Yanwan looked at him a few more times, and Namco noticed it. Instead of getting angry, she deliberately puffed out her chest slightly to make him look satisfied.

Sun Yanwan felt a little embarrassed and was too embarrassed to look at him any longer.

At first, Sun Yanwan was curious why the two women wanted to change horses?
The three of them left Taiyi Temple. He looked around but didn't see any maids or servants from the two families following them. He felt a little regretful and wondered what he would do for dinner in the evening.

After traveling for most of the day, Sun Yanwan saw someone waiting for them on the roadside. Seeing them coming, he came up to lead the horse and said with a smile, "Hot water, tea and food are ready. Come and rest quickly."

Sun Yanwan thought the other party had recognized the wrong person, but he saw the two women calmly dismount and walk into the roadside teahouse. He followed them and asked, "Ladies, what's going on?"

Sun Lingdie chuckled and said, "The last time we went to Kuiyang and hunted down the Blood Wolf Riders, we not only got a lot of treasure, but also hundreds of fine horses. Nan Meng took advantage of the situation and took over several local gangs. He also asked the Nan Meng family for some manpower and reorganized it into the Tianma Gang to start a transportation business."

"It just so happens that Nanmeng recently opened up the trade route to Yongzhou. This time, we don't need to bring a large group of people with us. The Tianma Gang will naturally greet us along the way."

Sun Yanwan was horrified and shouted, "Sister Nan Meng, are you so sharp?"

Namco smiled and said nothing. Instead, Sun Lingdie spoke up, "Did you just find out? Sister Nanmeng is smart and capable, rare in the world. The Tianma Gang can make at least a thousand or two thousand guan in profit every month, enough to support a family of several hundred people."

Namco and Sun Lingdie had already formed an alliance. Sun Lingdie praised Namco a few times, and Namco said softly, "Little Butterfly has also contributed. The Tianji Sun family is in the timber business, and they travel all over the country, so their routes are smooth. If she hadn't found Old Man Sun, the Tianma Gang wouldn't have been able to expand their business so easily."

In fact, the two women's troubles are not as simple as they sound.

The Tianji Sun family and the Nanmeng family were a little hesitant at first, but when the two women moved into Lingjian Peak, the resources of the two families poured in like snowflakes.

The Blood Wolf Riders are all fast horses. Although they are more expensive, they are not suitable for the transportation industry. It was the Nanmeng family and the Tianji Sun family who joined forces to acquire hundreds of fast horses in exchange for a large sum of money and nearly a thousand draft horses.

Moreover, the local gangs in Kuiyang had mixed members. Although Zhang Ji had killed several gang leaders and frightened these gangs, it was still difficult for him to command Ruyi. The two families also sent a lot of people to support the backbone of the Tianma Gang. Otherwise, how could a newly established gang easily do business?

The reason why the Tianma Gang can do business steadily without any trouble from the heroes in the martial arts world is naturally because of the golden signboard of the Songyang Sect.

Sun Yanwan is a disciple of a grandmaster. No matter how big the troubles the Tianma Gang encounters, as long as they reveal their name, the good men in the world will at least give them some face.

Sun Yanwan had never done business in this world, so he naturally didn't understand the intricacies involved. He inquired a bit and suddenly felt a little disappointed. Logically, time travelers like him were the ones making money in business. Whether it was Fan Xian or Ning Yi, they were both skilled businessmen. Why was it that when it came to him, Sun Yanwan, he was just a gigolo?

Before he could make any great achievements, his family already had an estate.

From Taiyi Temple to Yongzhou, it is not too far. The three of them, especially those who rode light and fast horses, traveled quickly all the way and turned into Jinan Road in just a few days. Yongzhou is a prefecture capital in Jinan Road.

The customs and habits of Jinan Road are different. Everywhere you look, you can see women wearing headscarves and carrying baskets. Most men are shirtless and have dark skin, but they look more sturdy. Occasionally, two people will quarrel over trivial matters, and often they will start fighting after just a few words.

Sun Yanwan couldn't bear to see such things, so he tried to stop countless fights along the way. Relying on his eloquence, he actually convinced many people. However, there were also people whose eloquence was not good enough. Sun Yanwan did not use force to stop the fight, but just waited aside. After the two sides decided the winner, he left a few hundred coins for medicine for the beaten people, which was just like the ticket money for the play.

After a few more days, they were about to arrive outside Yongzhou City. Sun Yanwan brought his two daughters and was about to enter the city when he suddenly saw a man in uniform outside the city gate. He had a weathered face and was over 30 years old. Although he was not young, he was quite bookish. Unlike his colleagues, he did not care about the people entering and leaving the city gate, but just held a book and read endlessly.

Sun Yanwan was initially only slightly puzzled. Why would a gatekeeper be so devoted to reading? But then, as if struck hard by a sledgehammer, his chest pounded, and the memories of the original owner suddenly surged back.

Sun Yanwan's face suddenly turned pale. He couldn't understand why he met this person in Yongzhou.

He suddenly couldn't rein in his horse, and the two women followed suit. Seeing that he was just hesitating, Sun Lingdie and Namco also behaved well and didn't say much.

After a long time, Sun Yanwan said in a dry voice: "My two young ladies, it's getting late today. Let's stay here for now and visit the Nian family tomorrow."

Although it was still early, Sun Lingdie and Namco knew that since Sun Yanwan said it was getting late, it must be dark. They smiled sweetly and said, "Yes, it is indeed getting late. Let's arrange a place to stay right away."

Sun Yanwan deliberately hid on the other side of the two women. After entering Yongzhou City and finding a place to stay, he locked himself in the room and told the two women that he would go into seclusion to practice tonight and they didn't need to disturb him. After closing the door, he immediately opened the window and went out.

Sun Yanwan found a little beggar on the street who was about the same size as herself, dragged him to the corner, took off his tattered clothes, put them on herself, and did not forget to wipe the oil mud on the little beggar's body and smear it on her own face. She threw a few taels of silver to the little beggar and walked away.

The little beggar never thought that someone would force him to buy his clothes. He grabbed the silver and ran away as fast as he could, fearing that the buyer would regret it.

Sun Yanwan strolled to the city gate and saw the man reading. She hesitated again and again before she made up her mind and walked over.
