Xu Fengwu had gained two more talents, so he naturally couldn't help but celebrate.
The next day, Duan Jingzhu came to find Xu Fengwu and introduced him to a few horse dealers. They were all doing the same business as him, and each of them had seven or eight high-quality horses.
Xu Fengwu didn't waste any time and immediately bought them all.
As a result, Xu Fengwu had more than sixty horses with him. He still had to make a trip to the Ji Prefecture, so it was inconvenient for him to keep bringing them along.
Immediately, Xu Fengwu called everyone over and had Song Wan, Bian Xiang, and Tang Long bring fifty elite followers to transport the horses and their belongings back to Liangshan.
Bian Xiang and Tang Long had just joined the team and were thinking of making a contribution. Seeing how much Xu Fengwu trusted them, they immediately agreed.
Xu Fengwu was at ease with Song Wan and the others. Bian Xiang's strength was needless to say. Just his fifty followers were not something ordinary thieves could provoke.
Xu Fengwu told Song Wan and the others to be careful on the way, then he headed towards Ji Province with Ruan Xiaoqi, Shan Shiqi, Yuan Zhongliang, Yun Zongwu, and the Chen brothers.
On the way to Ji Province, everyone rode a horse. However, among the seven of them, Shan Shiqi was a rich man, and Yuan and Yun were his good friends, so they all knew how to ride horses.
Only Ruan Xiaoqi didn't know how to do it, so it could be said that she was learning as she walked.
A few days later, Xu Fengwu and his group arrived at Ji Province.
After entering the city, the group was walking on a main street when they heard the sound of wind blowing in front of them. They looked up and saw a bridal escort team coming their way.
On the leading white horse sat the groom. He was a handsome man with two eyebrows, phoenix eyes, pale yellow skin, and a few thin whiskers.
Xu Fengwu and the others made way for the bridal procession to pass. At the same time, they heard the people around them discussing.
"Who is this person? Why is it so grand?"
"You don't even know this person? This person was called Yang Xiong, and his ancestor was from Henan. He had come to Jizhou with an uncle-in-law to be the prefect, so he was stranded here. Later, a newly appointed magistrate recognized him, so he joined him as a prisoner of the two houses and served as the executioner of the city. Because he was good at martial arts and his face was slightly yellow, others called him Yang Xiong.”
"No wonder. Which family did he marry?”
"It's not a big family, but the daughter of Butcher Pan in the west of the city. That woman was born on the seventh day of the seventh month, so her small name is Qiaoyun. Previously, she married an official from Jizhou called Wang Yasi. He passed away not long ago, so she remarried to Yang Xiong.”
"How can a widow whose husband has died and the daughter of a butcher be worthy of such a grand ceremony?" the man asked in surprise.”
"You don't know about this!" The other person chuckled and said. Although Pan Qiaoyun was only the daughter of a butcher and had married someone once, her beauty and charm were rare. Otherwise, how could Yang Xiong be willing to marry her?”
"No wonder." The man suddenly realized.”
Xu Fengwu was listening to the conversation between the two and could not help but feel surprised. He did not expect that the groom riding the horse was actually Yang Xiong. This was really a coincidence.
Xu Fengwu didn't know if it was his mind playing tricks on him, but he felt that Yang Xiong was cheating on him!
When the bridal procession passed, Xu Fengwu and the others were about to find a restaurant to stay in. Unexpectedly, a lean man with a towel on his shoulder came up to them.
"Dear guests, may I ask if you want to stay in the hotel? In front of them was the largest restaurant in Ji Prefecture. As long as the few of you moved, there would be good wine and meat immediately!”The lean man said with a smile.
Everyone was already hungry along the way. When they heard that there was wine and meat, they immediately became energetic.
"You lead the way," Ruan Xiaoqi shouted.”
"Guest, please follow me!"
Immediately, the lean man led Xu Fengwu and the others forward.
At this moment, the one who recognized Yang Xiong shook his head and said,"These foreigners are in trouble."
"Why do you say that?" asked another person.”
"You don't know, but that lean man is called Shi Qian. He steals chickens and dogs in Ji Prefecture City, doing those things of leaping over roofs and climbing walls. He often targets foreign merchants.”
"I see. I didn't expect there to be such a great thief in Ji Prefecture.”Another person shook his head and sighed.
Xu Fengwu and the others followed the man. After walking a few hundred steps, they saw a big restaurant. There were several wine flags floating above, and the names of the good wines were written on them.
Before everyone reached the front of the building, they could already smell the fragrance of wine.
At this moment, the lean man said eagerly,"Dear guests, please go upstairs and take a seat. There will be a waiter in the shop to take care of you. I will help you tie the horses to the backyard.”
"No need," Chen Xing said."Take my young master and the others upstairs first. I'll go and store the horses myself."”
Seeing Chen Xing say this, the lean man rolled his eyes and said,"In that case, little brother, you can go around to the right and reach the backyard. This lowly one will give the guests their bags.”
Xu Fengwu and the others didn't suspect anything and walked straight into the restaurant. A waiter came up to them and greeted,""Dear guests, please go upstairs and sit."
Xu Fengwu nodded. Suddenly, he noticed that the towel on the lean man's shoulder had disappeared. He couldn't help but feel surprised.
The group of people followed the waiter up to the second floor and found a private room to sit down. They saw the lean man put down his bag and said,"Guests, please take a seat. This lowly one will go downstairs to serve you some good wine.”
Ruan Xiaoqi shouted,"Hurry up and bring the good wine."”
The lean man turned around and was about to leave, but before he could take his first step, he felt a sudden pain in his wrist. He looked down and saw that Xu Fengwu had grabbed him.
The lean man was shocked, but he immediately smiled and said,""Sir, is there anything else I can do for you?"
Xu Fengwu smiled and said," You've led us all the way. It must have been hard on you. Why don't you sit down for a while? I'll treat you to a glass of good wine."”
A hint of panic flashed across the lean man's eyes, but his wrist was already grabbed by Xu Fengwu. It was difficult for him to escape, so he could only force a smile and sit down.
Xu Fengwu grabbed the lean man and turned to the waiter.""Give us the best wine in the shop, a few signature dishes, and five catties of top-quality beef and mutton.”
"Please wait!" Seeing that he had met a rich guest, the waiter also revealed a happy expression and nodded his head and bowed.
Without waiting for anyone to speak, the lean man said,"Dear guests, this lowly one will go and get you some wine so that you won't be anxious from waiting.”
"Get the wine?" Xu Fengwu asked with a smile. You don't have to take our money. Do you think I don't recognize you?”
Seeing that his name had been exposed, Shi Qian's expression immediately changed. He suddenly jumped up and rushed towards the window.
