135 One wave just flattened one wave, and an old friend was encountered in Shouchun City.

"You guy is not young anymore, why don't you understand the rules so much? Hello! Do you hear me?" The Chu soldier was a little unhappy when he saw Lu Bu standing there in a daze without saying a word.

‘This damn guy is so noisy!’ Seeing more than ten Chu soldiers hiding in the corner chatting in the distance, they also turned their attention to this side, Lu Bu had to suppress the idea of ​​killing in his heart, and deliberately pretended to be innocent, pointing at his mouth and pointing at the Chu soldiers walking towards him.[]

"So you're a mute, hum! Even so, you can't break the rules here. Hey, you're so mute, you're so hard, you've pulled such a big cart of firewood by yourself. You're so stupid and powerful. I think this cart of firewood can be sold for a lot of money when you enter the city this time." The Chu soldier saw that Lu Bu was a mute who couldn't speak, and his tone became more gentle, but his last sentence seemed to have something to imply.

What Lu Bu thought of at this time was that if he rushed to kill people desperately, although he would definitely be able to hide in the huge Shouchun City for the agreed day, the Qin soldiers who had not yet entered the city would be subject to a more severe investigation. Moreover, the Chu army might also launch a search in Shouchun City, and the Qin soldiers who had already sneaked into the city would be exposed to a greater danger. In this way, it is hard to say whether the Qin soldiers who could survive until General Meng Tian's siege in the city would be left with 20 to 30%.

Seeing that the Chu soldiers spoke in their words and mentioned money in their last sentence, Lu Bu suddenly thought of a possibility, pretended to be extremely reluctant, stroking out from his arms for a long time, and finally took out a copper seashell, the smallest currency of Chu State, and handed it slowly to your Chu soldiers.

Here I would like to tell you that before the Chu State was annexed by Qin State, the currency of Chu State was divided into three types: gold, silver and copper, with sea shells as the prototype. There were many variants afterwards.

Copper coins: mainly copper shells, oval, flat on the back, raised on the front, with characters, and characters that look like ants, and their mouths look like nostrils, so they are called ants nose coins. Because they are taken from shells, they look like the ancient word "shell" and look like a human face, so they are also called "ghost face coins". The copper shells in Chu State also have shovel shapes.

Silver coins: silver is the original creation of the State of Chu. The currency is in a shovel shape, which is the characteristic of the currency in the Central Plains. From then on, it can be seen that the Chu State has close commercial trade with various countries in the Central Plains.

Gold coins: The Chu gold coins were called Yingyuan and Lujin in history, also known as Yinzijin, which means flat gold plates with specific inscriptions, and gold plates without seals, etc.

The copper shell that Lu Bu took out was the most basic currency of the Chu State, and it was also the most in line with the identity Lu Bu was dressed up at this time. If Lu Bu took out a golden cake and threw it to the Chu army soldier, it would not only not have the effect of "bribery", but it would be like to tell the Chu army soldier openly: Come and catch me, I am stupid, and I am a little bitch and a lot of money, and it is probably a detailed work of the Qin army disguised as a merchant!

Sure enough, when the Chu soldier took the copper shell handed over by Lu Bu, he finally showed a smile on his face, and patted Lu Bu's firm arms and said with a smile: "Very good! Since you did things according to the rules, I, Lao Liu, will not treat you badly. Remember your picture, Lao Liu, and you will come in and sell goods in the future. As long as I, Lao Liu, will not let you pay the money again."

Lu Bu couldn't help but secretly despise this bastard who called himself Lao Liu. What does it mean that he doesn't have to pay when he is on duty? I am afraid that when he sees Lu Bu, a disguised merchant, pushing a cart of firewood to the city for sale again in the future, even if Lao Liu is standing next to him, he will encourage people on the side to come and ask for coins. The worst thing is, "I am Lao Liu, who is not on duty today," and you can throw the words of today's promise into the gutter. However, Lu Bu doesn't care about this, and he is just doing this "buying and dealing". When he meets Lao Liu in the future, he is afraid that he will not take out copper shells to him, but give him a stern!

"Let's go, don't make trouble in the city! If you make a mistake, I'm afraid that the money sold by your car of firewood may not be able to save your life." Old Liu warned Lu Bu before leaving, then threw away the copper shell he got from Lu Bu and walked back to his post with a smile.

After the old Liu walked away, Lu Bu sneered and pushed his 'cargo' back into the depths of Shouchun City. Unexpectedly, before he could take a hundred steps, he heard someone calling him: "Stop the man in front, stop!"

‘Hmph! Do you really treat me, Lu Bu, as a fat sheep? I come to ask for money again and again. If I continue to ask for money, I can’t let me walk to the south gate!’ Lu Bu quietly glanced around and found that only a few Chu soldiers were standing far away. Then he turned to the person who called him, thinking in his heart that if the person who called him this time was another person who came to ask for money, then he would not mind let him die silently, and then put it under the firewood in his car to let his body rot slowly.

"What a murderous aura, young general, don't forget that this is not the Qin army camp, but the capital of Chu, Shouchun City." The man smiled and said a few words softly, which scared Lu Bu very much.

"It's you!" Lu Bu looked at the person who called him. Wasn't it the black-clothed assassin who sneaked into the Qin army camp to assassinate him that night? Although the sky was dark that night, the black-clothed assassin who claimed to be Yu Ji's grandfather still remembered his figure and appearance by Lu Bu. After only a few days, even if Lu Bu had a poor memory, he would never forget him.

At this time, Lu Bu felt a little bitter in his heart. One wave had just calmed down and another. He had just dealt with the Chu army guarding the city gate, but he met the black-clothed assassin who almost killed his life that day. If he fought with this old man with extraordinary sword skills here, he was afraid that he would have to enjoy the feeling of being watched by countless Chu soldiers in Shouchun City in advance.

The old man in ordinary clothes chuckled and walked into Lu Bu, bowed and said, "Although I don't know what the young general came to Shouchun City for, I, Yu Qingdemeng, had no time to repay the kindness of the young general that day and night. Naturally, I would not ruin the good things of the young general. But since I am lucky enough to meet the young general again today, I don't know that the young general can go to my house for a convenient time, and let me prepare the next meal of wine and food to repay the kindness of the young general that day."

Lu Bu looked at the old man who claimed to be Yu Qing seriously. After seeing the old man's clear and sincere eyes, Lu Bu smiled heartily: "I haven't found a place to go today. Since the elder invites me, it's hard for me to refuse. Please ask the elder to lead the way for me?"
