In the southern suburbs of Xingyang, Lin Tian led hundreds of cavalry on the open road, and finally stopped on the bank of a large lake.

“General Lin, in front of you is the Cui Family Fort. This entire lake is the site of the Cui Family.” The walls are all made of stone bricks, giving a very solid impression.

Lin Tian’s eyes swept along the river bank, the lake was wide and without waves, the lake was bottomless, and there was no ferry port in sight.

The only way to go is the drawbridge at Fort Cui Family.

“Such a strong fortress is not something that can be built in about a year, but the continuous efforts of the Cui Family for several generations.”

The scale of this Cui Family is simply Like a miniature version of the county seat, in this piece of land, the Cui Family is the local tyrant that stands by one’s word.

In Lin Tian’s heart, secretly sighed, the Cui Family is only a local noble family in Xingyang, far less than other famous clansmen.

From this point of view, it can be seen that the power of Sui Dynasty is huge. It is no exaggeration to say that it holds most of the world.

“I handed in the famous post, why didn’t the people from Cui Family come out to greet them.”

Deputy General Wang complained in a low voice, the suspension bridge was slowly lowered, and people from the Cui Family Fort appeared. at the door.

“General Wagonlin, I have long admired my name.”

The man in the gorgeous brocade Cui Family took the initiative to speak, with a warm smile on his face, and introduced himself first.

“Next is Cui Haoran, the steward of the Cui Family. I’m here to meet you at the order of patriarch.”

Lin Tian kicked the dark horse lightly, approached the suspension bridge slowly, and finally stopped in front of Cui Haoran. .

Looking at Lin Tian who was tall and strong, Cui Haoran suddenly felt an invisible pressure, as if he was facing a tiger looking at its prey.

“This person is so powerful in imposing manner that he is not even inferior to the famous general Zhang Xutuo I have seen.”

Cui Haoran barely endured Lin Tian’s imposing manner, and secretly Lin Tian is compared with other famous players.

“It’s no wonder that patriarch told me to prepare immediately after receiving this person’s salutation message, and don’t have any contempt.”

“Cui Steward.”

Lin Tian’s deep voice sounded, “I have already explained the plan for purchasing grain in the letter. I wonder what your Cui Family thinks?”

He had already sent someone to deliver the letter before he set off. Go to Cui Family and express their intention to buy food at a price that is 30% higher than the normal market price.

If Cui Family is willing to cooperate, they can also make a considerable profit.

“I’m sorry I can’t answer.” Cui Haoran frowned and replied, “This needs to be decided by patriarch, I have no right to decide.”

“General Lin, please come with me, the banquet has been set up. , patriarch is waiting for you.”

After that, he waved the Cui Family gatekeepers behind him to disperse, making way for Lin Tian.

Lin Tian smiled indifferently, hoping that Cui Family’s appetite wouldn’t be too big, and refused a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit.

“General, it’s too dangerous to bring only a dozen personal soldiers in.”

Vice Admiral Wang leaned over and said in a low voice, “The Cui Family is huge, in case they I have a bad idea, and I suddenly turned against you, bode ill rather than well.”

“This Cui Family banquet is a feast at hongmen.”

I heard The reminder in his words, Lin Tian smiled proudly, and patted him heavily on the shoulder.

Between him and the Cui Family, who is Liu Bang and who is Xiang Yu, not sure yet.

“Lieutenant General Wang, you are leading hundreds of cavalry on the shore to stand by and be ready at any time.”

Then Lin Tian entered the open gate, a tall archway stood in front, A straight road below.

Flocks of pines and cypresses are planted on both sides of the road, a lush and green scene full of vitality.

Lin Tian deliberately trailed Cui Haoran by half a position, secretly observing the terrain around Cui Family.

Cui Haoran said with a slight smile: “patriarch has been very happy after seeing the greetings sent by General Lin, and can’t wait to meet the general immediately.”

Lin Tian retracted his gaze, With a calm expression, he asked: “I have never had a relationship with Patriarch Cui,

how can I deserve such a favor.”

Cui Haoran shook his head lightly and sighed helplessly: “The general doesn’t know anything, I Although the Cui Family has accumulated a little fortune, they have also suffered from the troubled times, and many businesses have been forced to stop.”

“Wagang is the most famous rebel army in the vicinity, so I heard that Wagang’s The general is going to visit the Cui Family, and he is naturally very happy.”

There are falsehoods in his words, and there are truths in the falsehoods. Some businesses are indeed difficult to do in the era of turmoil, but others are even bigger.

Lin Tian smiled indifferently, not believing Cui Haoran’s words.

A little fortune?

Just looking at such a large area of Cui Family Fort, you can guess that Cui Family has a lot of property, and even said that it is fat.

It’s a million dots.

After continuing to walk for a while, Lin Tian crossed a stone bridge over a clear river, his sight opened instantly, and he saw the building complex in the row upon row in front of him.

Fang Yimin led him across a stone bridge across the Qingxi River flowing from the northwest, and saw the building in the middle of the Duzun Fort in front of him.

The pavilions, halls and corridors are particularly dazzling in the sun, which can be described as gold and jade in glorious splendor, showing the richness of the Cui Family.

Cui Haoran looked towards Lin Tian quietly, originally thought that Lin Tian would be shocked by this scene, but found that Lin Tian’s expression did not change at all.

In his eyes, these magnificent buildings are just ordinary buildings.

Cui Haoran couldn’t help muttering in his heart, “Except for Li Mi and a few others, most of Wagang’s generals are from poor families and have never seen the world.

didn’t expect this person. When I saw the great hall of my Cui Family, there was no difference at all, could he be from the Jin’an Lin Family?”

While walking, guessing Lin Tian’s origin, Cui Haoran felt more and more mysterious of Lin Tian.

“General Lin, please go this way.”

Lin Tian easily followed his footsteps and stepped onto a long veranda with several rockeries in the middle. Thick vines are entwined on the mountain.

Walking to the end of the veranda, I suddenly saw a splendid great hall around the corner, with a different imposing manner.

“This is the main hall of the Cui Family.”

Cui Haoran stood there and saluted in awe, “General Lin, please come into the great hall to meet with the family, and I’ll be here. If you have other matters, please retire first.”

Then he returned on the same path and disappeared into the distance.

“There are more than 50 intersections I have seen along the way. The building of this Cui Family is not so complicated, it’s like a labyrinth.”

Lin Tian recalled what he had observed along the way, and couldn’t help thinking for a moment.

He didn’t meet anyone on the way, not even the servants.

“If outsiders come in for the first time and encounter these twists and turns, they will definitely be confused and cannot find the right way.”

The main hall’s At the gate, there is a pair of majestic white stone lions squatting, which adds a bit of solemnity and majesty to this great hall.

Lin Tian couldn’t help shaking his head when he thought of the means by which the Cui Family made a fortune. In this Cui Family, inside and outside, I am afraid that only this pair of stone lions is clean.

The door was kept open, Lin Tian pushed it open gently, and heard a full of energy when he entered.

“It is an honor for my Cui Family to have General Lin here.”
