Seven days later, a group of escort carriages arrived at Guangyang County with two million taels of silver.
This escort carriage was none other than Liang Qianqiu's.
Lord Guangyang's Mansion.
They held a feast, drank wine, and ate meat. It was a joyous occasion.
Ye Qiu naturally treated a rich man who gave him money as a distinguished guest. Not only did they hold a banquet, but they also generously invited a group of dancers to the Guangyang Mansion to drink and liven things up.
"Leader Ye, I've already sent the money according to the agreement. I wonder when Leader Ye should promise you.”
Liang Qianqiu asked.
"There's no rush, no rush. This matter is not urgent. Although the money has arrived and I can start recruiting soldiers now, the recruitment of soldiers is not something that can be done in a few days. Minister Liang, don't worry. When the recruitment is successful, it will be time for us to send troops.”Ye Qiu said.
"We can put aside the recruitment for now. His Majesty has said that as long as you agree, we can use hundreds of thousands of soldiers at your disposal. Right now, the most important thing is to deal a fatal blow to the Great Tang before they know we've formed an alliance.”Liang Qianqiu said.
Long before they arrived, Liang shi had already instructed Ye Qiu to dispatch his troops as soon as possible.
After all, they had heard the rumors of Ye Qiu going back on his word. As long as Ye Qiu sent out his troops, he would be completely on the opposite side of the Great Tang and would be bound to their Daliang Empire.
Thus, Liang shi had already instructed Ye Qiu to lead the Daliang soldiers.
Ye Qiu quickly waved his hand and said,"How can I dare to lead the soldiers of Daliang? Minister Liang, don't worry. I have the silver you gave me now. The recruitment will be completed in a few days.”
Liang Qianqiu was about to say something when he saw Ye Qiu standing up and swaying.
"I'm sorry, Minister Liang, but I can't hold my liquor, so I'll go to bed first. As for other matters, you can discuss it with our Second Leader, Old Tie Cheng.”
With that, Ye Qiu stood up and left.
Seeing Ye Qiu leave, Liang Qianqiu was completely dumbfounded. He had only drunk a few glasses of wine, and Ye Qiu was already unable to hold back.
Before he came, he had done a lot of research on Ye Qiu. He knew that Ye Qiu was a person who would not get drunk even after drinking a thousand glasses. Back in Autumn Wind Stronghold, he and those mountain bandits drank and had fun every day. No one in Autumn Wind Stronghold could drink better than him.
Now that the bandits of Autumn Wind Stronghold were all fine, why was he suddenly unable to hold his liquor?
At this moment, Liang Qianqiu suddenly had a bad feeling.
He couldn't have been scammed, right?
However, there was nothing he could do now. After all, Ye Qiu had already left.
Liang Qianqiu was extremely upset by this feast.
On the other hand, the bandits were all overjoyed. No one knew what they were so happy about.
Old Tie Cheng and the rest of the bandits were extremely happy. They had just gotten another two million taels of silver. How could they not be happy?
For the next few days, Liang Qianqiu was treated like a distinguished guest, but every time he came to look for Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu would come up with all sorts of excuses to not see him.
Dealing with official documents?
What bedridden?
Even Auntie Wang's little female dog giving birth next door was the reason why he didn't want to see Liang Qianqiu.
Liang Qianqiu almost died from anger.
However, there was nothing he could do now. Liang Qianqiu was like an ant on a hot pan. He had already given out the money, and if he didn't complete this mission, he wouldn't be able to face Liang Shidu anymore.
Since he couldn't see Ye Qiu, Old Tie Cheng had been the one to entertain Liang Qianqiu these past few days, bringing him out to eat, drink, and have fun every day.
On this day, Old Tie Cheng came again.
"Old Brother Liang, I'll bring you to the Drunken Phoenix Restaurant today. I heard that there's a new top star there, the best in the entire northwest.”
"Brother Cheng, I'm getting on in years. Those fireworks aren't worth my time.”
Liang Qianqiu had been in Guangyang County for quite some time now, eating, drinking, and having fun every day. However, he hadn't made any progress in his official business. This made him extremely depressed and angry.
"Hey, what are you talking about, Brother Liang? You're still in your prime, acting like a little tiger cub. Let's go, let's go. I, Old Cheng, will treat you, and I guarantee that I'll get you the most beautiful girl in Drunken Phoenix Restaurant.”Old Tie Cheng pretended not to notice the change in Liang Qianqiu's expression and spoke enthusiastically.
Liang Qianqiu was furious, but he couldn't vent his anger under the roof. Liang Qianqiu could only suppress his anger and calmly said,""Brother Cheng, you should know the purpose of my visit. I have been in Guangyang County for some time now. Where is your leader?”
"I have something important to deal with today, so I'm afraid I can't see you.”Old Tie Cheng said.
Important matters, important matters, there are important matters every day. Don't tell me that my matters are not important matters?
Liang Qianqiu cursed in his heart, but he maintained his composure on the surface."Then may I ask what business Master Ye went to do?”
"The ten-year-old sow raised by Butcher Zhang in the west of the city had a difficult labor, so our master went to help it with the delivery.”Old Tie Cheng said.
Helping an old sow deliver labor?
How could this be considered important?!!!
I got two million yuan in exchange for you helping an old sow with childbirth.
Liang Qianqiu's eyes widened in rage.
Liang Qianqiu could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. He pushed Old Tie Cheng aside and stormed out of Wang Guangyang's Imperial Residence.
Old Tie Cheng hurriedly followed behind him and arrived at the King Guangyang's Mansion. The guards guarding the entrance were all bandits from Autumn Wind Stronghold. Naturally, they knew Liang Qianqiu, so they didn't stop him.
"Ye Qiu, come out." Liang Qianqiu shouted, but no one responded. He then began to search the entire residence, turning it upside down, but he still couldn't find Ye Qiu's shadow.
"I'm so angry, so angry."
Liang Qianqiu sat in the living room, panting from anger.
"Brother Liang, didn't I tell you that our Chief went to Butcher Zhang's house in the west of the city to help his old sow deliver labor? Why don't you believe me?”
Seeing Liang Qianqiu like this, Old Tie Cheng almost burst out laughing. However, he couldn't laugh, so he could only hold it in. It was extremely uncomfortable.
"Go to hell." At this moment, Liang Qianqiu no longer cared about his own image as he started cursing.
