Chapter 102 Sitting on the ground and starting the price (Monday)
readx;
The next day, Liang Xiao practiced the bow for half an hour as usual, and then started daily practice every day. After living in ten thousand households, everything was more convenient than living in a melon shed, but there was only one thing that was bad: there was no space at home that was a hundred steps away, so you had to go outside when you practice archery.
Now in the wild, you can practice as long as you set up a marquis to set up a marquis. Although it is spacious in the wild, it also has the disadvantages of practicing arrows in the wild. First, the environment is changing, and second, there are many people watching. As soon as Liang Xiao set up a marquis, he attracted a group of onlookers. After shooting less than fifty arrows, a human wall was surrounded by him.
Liang Xiao did not hear the cheers, but felt some disappointment. After watching for a while, many people began to regret Li Jiao.
The reason is very simple. Although Liang Xiao showed good shooting skills at this moment, it was different from the bravery he had in the competition yesterday. He shot nearly a hundred arrows, and only more than thirty arrows were shot at the Archer Marquis, and only three arrows were shot at the bow, and none of them were shot at the swan. Yesterday, he hit a bow, and one arrow hit a swan, and the last arrow was hit. This is a legend that people talked about. At this moment, when he saw Liang Xiao shooting, he suddenly felt like he was dead when he saw the light.
Naturally, they would think that Li Jiao lost unjustly, not because of her craftsmanship, but because of her luck.
Listening to the surroundings, Liang Xiao kept his mind calm as much as possible. Shooting arrows in public is going to face everyone's comments, which is also a process of training the mind.
When Liang Xiao shot three hundred arrows, Li Jiao came. He looked at it for a while, and shook his head with a wry smile. "I am the best in terms of shooting skills. In terms of vision, my eldest brother is the most wisest."
Liang Xiao shot an arrow, watched the arrow fly by the arrow, stopped, and shook his hand. "Why did Brother Li say this?"
"Before I came to compete with you, my brother said that I was not your opponent, and I didn't believe it at the time. Now I believe it. What you are strongest is not your craftsmanship, but your mentality. The greater the pressure, the better your performance, and it seems that it will not be affected at all. I can't do it. Once the pressure is high, I will panic, and ten percent of the craftsmanship can perform at most 70%."
"Brother Li, you were also shot by one shot yesterday."
"My pure luck. You are different. Although you also have the elements of luck, it is inseparable from the hard work you usually practice."
Li Jiao said, taking his own bow and shooting with Liang Xiao. You two arrows, I took turns shooting. Sure enough, with Li Jiao's stimulation, Liang Xiao's hit rate increased unknowingly. From about 30% to 40%. In the end, he even shot 50% of the hit rate with a hundred arrows, and three arrows shot gong and one arrow shot.
Liang Xiao was very surprised. He himself did not realize this problem, but just thought it was all caused by luck. After all, Li Jiao was a family of archery arts that have been archery for generations. His archery art may not be better than himself, but his vision and experience are very unique.
"Liang Xiao, go to the border. In Chang'an, few people can inspire you. The Huns on the grassland are better at riding and shooting, and there are also archers of the Condor Heroes. They can arouse your fighting spirit and make you attack the higher peaks."
"I'm just thinking that way, too."
"Come to my Li family." Li Jiao sent a sincere invitation. "Although my father is now a Weiyang Guard, it won't take long. Once the Huns invade, he will definitely return to the border. You can follow him to the border, which will be of great use."
Liang Xiao was moved. Although he had some conflicts with the Li family father and son, he never met him and eventually became friends. If he could follow Li Guang to fight on the battlefield, it would be a waste of time to come to this world. What's more, I admire Li Guang so much. If I could become Li Guang's servant, I could also satisfy my vanity.
"Thank you, Brother Li, let me think about it."
"Of course." Li Jiao laughed, put away his bow and jumped on the horse. "Let's go, let's practice riding together. Riding and shooting, riding and shooting, you can't do it. You are from Jianghuai, and you must have never ridden a horse. This riding requires hard practice."
Liang Xiaoxin felt the same way, and called Tu Niuer, stepped on the horse together, and followed Li Jiao to trot along the water. With his current level, he could barely ride on the horse and trot. If he had a fast speed, he would have the possibility of falling off the horse, let alone shooting on the horse-driving war horse.
He hadn't even touched the threshold for riding and shooting. With a master like Li Jiao accompanying him and giving advice, it was a rare opportunity for him to learn.
...
After two days of traveling in the wild, Liang Xiao, Li Jiao and Li Gan became friends. Although Liang Xiao is not as generous as them, he likes to date such young people from the bottom of his heart. Being with them is full of things, and there is no need to guess too much about the meaning behind it, and he lives a relatively easy life.
Happy times are always short, and Mama Liang's condition tends to worsen. Liang Xiao dared not delay any longer and hurried back home, preparing to invite a doctor to treat him.
Just after I got home, I had not cleaned up yet, and the people from the Marquis' Mansion came to the door again.
It was still the middle-aged man, followed by several followers with flesh-faced faces and powerful power.
Liang Xiao already knew who he was now and had discussed countermeasures with Dongfang Shuo. Seeing these people, he was not panicked and shouted: "Brother Dongfang?"
"What are you doing?" Dongfang Shuo responded impatiently and appeared in the next yard. He didn't have to tiptoe, and saw the situation here clearly through the courtyard wall. When he saw that it was from the Gaihou Mansion, he pressed the wall, jumped up, and arrived at the Liang family, strode forward to meet him.
Although the middle-aged man was not short, he immediately became three points shorter than Dongfang Shuo, who was nine feet and three inches. He couldn't help but take a step back, shouting with a stern look: "What are we doing? We are here to discuss business."
"I know you are here to discuss business." Dongfang Shuo picked up his arm. "I am the donor of the Liang family's business. If you have any questions, just tell me."
The middle-aged man looked at Dongfang Shuo and suddenly laughed and said, "You are the doctor in front of the emperor. You actually donate to others, and you are not afraid of ruining your future?"
"It's my business whether it's bad or bad future, it has nothing to do with you."
The middle-aged man was choked by Dongfang Shuo, and his face looked even more ugly. He waved his hand and someone mentioned a skin bag. "I booked five double-sided brocade last time, and I have booked less. We want to add ten. This is ten gold, please keep it."
Liang Xiao understood as soon as he heard it. It seemed that the fifty gold coins that Liu Ling gave him yesterday were spotted by someone. If the fifteen pieces of brocade were not delivered in time, they would have to compensate 60 gold coins, which would just make him lose everything. The other party probably didn't know that the first money that Liu Ling paid him was 100 gold coins, otherwise he would have added more.
This is a deliberate search for trouble. However, Deng Guobin's loom transformation is in sight, and Liu Ling has arranged production. Not to mention fifteen, even thirty, there is no problem with delivery at the end of the month.
Of course, he had no intention of delivering the goods at all. Dongfang Shuo gave him a sinister idea, to swallow the deposit, but he didn't even give a single silk. He didn't know how Dongfang Shuo could do it, but he believed in Dongfang Shuo's IQ. It's not easy for this guy who dared to play with Liu Che to play with Liu Jian and Wang Chong'er.
"The price has increased." Dongfang Shuo took the ten golds, weighed them, and said slowly: "To complete so many brocades within a month, we need a weaver and buy a loom. We have a lot of investment, so we have to increase the price, ten golds per piece."
"Ten golds per piece? Are you going to start the price?" The middle-aged man was furious. "In Jiangdu Kingdom, two-sided brocade is only one gold and one horse."
"How can Jiangdu compete with Chang'an?" Dongfang Shuo sneered, stuffed the cloth bag back into the middle-aged man's arms, and then turned to Liang Xiao and said, "It's too much to lose two golds and one piece of gold. Return the deposit to him. Pay his twenty golds and sell the five pieces of gold to others. You can make more money."
