Chapter 234

"I believe he should also need more military equipment now;"

"After all, he wants to occupy Jizhou, become the number one warlord in the world, and become the leader of the upcoming warlord alliance!"

If you ask what is the most powerful weapon against Lord Yuan Shu?

Of course, it's Lord Yuan Shao!

Sure enough, hearing Su Xuan mention Lord Yuan Shao and the position of alliance leader, Lord Yuan Shu's face changed: "I want it! I want it all!"

"Not only the ones you confiscated, but also buy another 800, 00 shi of grain and 500, 00 gold worth of military equipment;"

"Armor, elite weapons, bows, crossbows, feathered arrows, and even warhorses, I want them all!"

"You absolutely cannot sell them to Lord Yuan Benchu!"

"You don't know, this dog thing is insidious! In the past, he often spoke ill of you in front of my uncle, saying you were a great threat, etc.;"

"The reason why you didn't get a chance for promotion in the past few years, Lord Yuan Benchu contributed a lot!"

"Brother Su Boyuan! Only you and I are true friends. You must be careful, careful, and careful of people like Lord Yuan Benchu who are one way on the surface and another behind your back."

In short, don't sell to Lord Yuan Shao, sell them all to me.

I have money.

Lord Yuan Shu almost had the words "big sucker" written on his face. Su Xuan naturally wouldn't refuse, and nodded: "Brother Gonglu, you don't have to say it, I actually vaguely felt that Lord Yuan Shao is not simple!"

"But I didn't expect him to treat me like this!"

"Then fine! I'll sell everything to you, Brother Gonglu!"

"Don't worry, they are all high-quality military equipment, much better than the ones confiscated from you!"

"Among them, there are at least 1, 00 sets of iron armor, and even more weapons and bows and arrows;"

"However, there are really no warhorses!"

"You also know that the south lacks horses, and I don't even have enough warhorses myself!"

"I still have to find ways to buy them from the north at high prices;"

"So, Brother Gonglu, you understand how much sincerity I have in selling back the few thousand warhorses confiscated from you, right?"

"I absolutely didn't cheat you!"

1, 00 sets of iron armor was already the limit Su Xuan could sell to Lord Yuan Shu.

Moreover, these iron armors were the first version of iron armor, and their defense was less than 30% of the iron armor currently in service in Su Xuan's army.

But they were still 10-20% stronger than the iron armor produced by the Great Han.

For other warlords, they were already top-tier good things.

But here at Su Xuan's, they were phased-out products.

Even if they were phased-out products, Su Xuan didn't plan to sell more to Lord Yuan Shu for the time being.

Armor is ultimately different from weapons.

Hmm! The refined steel weapons currently in service in his army were naturally not for sale.

Only the first version of refined iron weapons were sold.

As for why he didn't want the few thousand confiscated warhorses?

For one, most of these warhorses were not top-tier warhorses, most were just low-tier and mid-tier warhorses, which couldn't compare to the top-tier warhorses he had just bought.

Let alone those top-tier warhorses and even exotic beast warhorses tamed with exotic beast methods, spiritual energy, and secret medicines.

In the end, the foundation of most of these warhorses was too poor.

Even if he took them to tame, Su Xuan felt the cost-effectiveness was too low.

It was better to sell them back to Lord Yuan Shu.

Anyway, for now, he had enough high-quality warhorses.

Including the warhorses in the army, he had a total of about 60, 00 warhorses that were at least high-quality.

Among them, the vast majority were still top-tier warhorses.

Combined with the more than ten large exotic beast horse farms he set up in Nanjun.

He had basically achieved self-sufficiency in warhorses!

He was already using warhorses to breed on their own.

Because of the blessing of the Star Spirit-Turning Formation and the Spirit Locking Formation, the growth rate of those ordinary pastures was extremely fast, and there was no need to worry about them not growing.

Even these ordinary pastures nourished by spiritual energy were far more nutritious than the pastures outside, and were gradually transforming.

In the future, it was not impossible for them to become spiritual pastures.

Lord Yuan Shu nodded and said: "You are still the honest one, Su Boyuan!"

"Warhorses are indeed rare! You are indeed very sincere to sell back all those confiscated warhorses!"

"Then fine! The military equipment transaction is settled. Let the subordinates discuss the specific price, quantity, and type! Let's continue to drink! Drink!"

"Haha! Good! Drink! Come! Cheers!"

Su Xuan also smiled and raised his glass to invite him.

His heart was blooming with joy: "I didn't expect to not only empty out Lord Yuan Shu's remaining 1 million shi of grain and 300, 00 gold!"

"Even squeezed out another 400, 00 gold;"

"Sure enough, Lord Yuan Shu is a rich man!"

No wonder people drink honey water when they drink water. This is a proper big tycoon.

If he didn't ruthlessly pluck a few handfuls to enrich his treasury, he would be sorry to himself.

Afterward, Su Xuan chatted and drank with Lord Yuan Shu, feeling very comfortable.

There was no longer the tense atmosphere from before.

More than an hour later, Lord Yuan Shu felt his stomach was a bit full and he had the urge to urinate, so he got up to say goodbye.

Before leaving, Lord Yuan Shu remembered something and couldn't help but ask Su Xuan: "By the way! Brother Su Boyuan! This warlord alliance, electing the leader, will you support me? Or are you preparing to run for leader yourself?"

For a time, Lord Yuan Shu's gaze at Su Xuan became vigilant.

With Su Xuan's status today, he really had the qualifications.

Facing Lord Yuan Shu's burning gaze, Su Xuan smiled and shook his head: "Brother Gonglu, don't joke!"

"How am I qualified to run for leader?"

"I don't know many of those warlords, and I don't have the reputation and background of your Lord Yuan clan. Even if I wanted to run, those people probably wouldn't support me;"

"Then what would I run for? To be lonely?"

"So, I won't make a fool of myself! Let's leave this opportunity to you, Brother Gonglu!"

"Moreover, based on our friendship and this transaction, I will naturally support you!"

"You also said it! That Lord Yuan Benchu is not a good thing, he calculated against me behind my back before, spoke ill of me, and interfered with my promotion. There is no way I would choose him."

Hmm! Anyway, it doesn't matter who is chosen!

This campaign against Dong Zhuo itself is a tiger-headed snake-tailed movement.

The position of leader doesn't mean much.

However, even with his own support, Su Xuan still didn't think highly of Lord Yuan Shu.

Compared to others, Lord Yuan Shao was more popular.

It was really because Lord Yuan Shu's reputation in the past was too bad.

The famous Lord Yuan clan playboy, are you kidding me?

"Haha! That's true!"

Lord Yuan Shu smiled and said: "Then many thanks for your support, Brother Su Boyuan!"

He almost forgot that Su Xuan really didn't have the opportunity to become the leader.

Although his power and status were high, his connections were far inferior to his Lord Yuan clan.

In the end, the Su clan of the past was just a declining small noble clan.

How could it compare to the Lord Yuan clan?

Unless he waited for a few decades, Su Xuan worked hard to develop and strengthen the Su clan, and constantly expanded his connections, consolidated and improved his power, then he might have enough influence.

"I'm leaving! Farewell!"

Saying this, Lord Yuan Shu mounted his horse and left directly.

"Let's go too!"

Su Xuan saw this, greeted Xu Chu, and returned to his own military formation.

Returned to the city.

Afterward, he handed over the matters of redeeming people and selling military equipment to Guo Jia, the Su Clan Chamber of Commerce, and the Secret Guards to handle.
