Chapter 775

That night, the Luo family met Yan Liqiang and his party in the Luo family's mansion in Jinzhou City. Imperial concubine Rong, King min, Princess Anping, imperial concubine Yi, imperial concubine Duan and imperial concubine Rui attended the banquet. Naturally, Yan Liqiang also attended with Liu Xitong, Sima Qingshan and others.

At this banquet, Yan Liqiang met many key figures of the Luo family, including civil and military officials and local tycoons and businessmen in Jinzhou. Naturally, Yan Liqiang, who escorted Rong Guifei and others to Jinzhou along the way, also became the focus of attention at the banquet. In particular, several elite figures of the young generation of the Luo family frequently looked at Yan Liqiang, and Yan Liqiang always looked calm, For him, he is not surprised at such a scene. In addition to having a big meal, the only meaning for him is that he can take the opportunity to learn more about the strength of the Luo family and Jinzhou. As long as he comes to this occasion and doesn't say a word, he can get many materials and information that ordinary people can't imagine.

It has to be said that the Luo family is really extraordinary. Apart from others, it seems that the civil and military officials attending the banquet are not comparable to ordinary rich families. Among those officials, there are not only officials from the Jishi mansion in Jinzhou, but also a group of senior generals in the Heishan army in the camp of Jinzhou. The civil and military officials are seated in two rows. There are a large number of people in one hall, and the civil officials don't say anything, Yan Liqiang was deeply impressed by the generals of the Montenegrin army, who had a calm atmosphere, a tiger back and a bear waist, and different temperaments.

In such a big banquet, music and song and dance are indispensable. After several classes of Geji kabuki performances, another group of samurai performed sword dance skills. After the sword dance, in the hall of the banquet, someone began to push the circle, which pushed the atmosphere in the whole banquet hall to a climax.

In the past, Yan Liqiang saw the ring pushing skills mostly among the people. He saw the ring pushing skills on this occasion for the first time. Moreover, the people who pushed the skills were not arranged by who, but the bodyguards of all kinds present and the officers of the Montenegrin army who were sitting in the court came to the end of the competition, regardless of their status, but only their ability level, A group of dignitaries, dignitaries and ladies here are cheering and watching. Even many people bet on winning or losing on the spot. People who perform well in pushing circles will even get various rewards.

Even Liu Xitong and others were excited and eager to try. After drinking a little wine, Guo Sida couldn't help but have the courage to play two laps. In the first lap, Guo Sida defeated the guard of a Jinzhou tycoon, and in the second lap, Guo Sida lost, He was pushed out of the circle by the escort brought by another guest attending the banquet, but Guo Sida was very happy. Guo Sida, who won a game, also received a reward of 20 Liang gold from the Luo family. He smiled and returned to the seat and drank a glass of wine, "fun, fun..."

At the beginning of the end, the people who are more skilled in pushing the circle are average in strength, but with the beginning of the competition, the people who stay in the pushing circle are stronger and stronger, and their cultivation is higher and higher. This competition is becoming more and more wonderful. With the progress of the competition, it often attracts a lot of surprised voices and cheers from the ladies attending the meeting. Hearing these voices, the people who compete in the field are more like beating chicken blood, Desperate performance, this game of pushing the circle will not hurt your life, but it often happens when it is more intense, with a black nose and face, even a broken head and blood flow, and even a fracture.

"Interesting, interesting!" Yan Liqiang drank wine, looked at the competition in the field, turned his head and looked at Sima Qingshan, "is this Jinzhou rich family feast so wild and warm?"

Sima Qingshan, who attended the dinner today, also changed a suit of suitable clothes, feather fan and Lun scarf. He sat at the second banquet behind Yan Liqiang. He looked a bit strange. When he heard Yan Liqiang's question, Sima Qingshan leaned forward slightly and replied in a low voice.

"I don't know. The folk custom of Jinzhou is bold and vigorous, so the style of pushing circles is very popular in Jinzhou. From dignitaries to traffickers and pawns, they all like this way. Many rich families have a lot of martial arts and experts. They practice pushing circles at home every day in order to shine and win the top spot on such occasions, The Luo family has many experts who push the circle!! "

"Ha ha, that's interesting. Although this ring pushing skill is related to the way of fighting cultivation, it often plays and competes. It can really improve people's fighting skills, but it is not completely equivalent to the way of fighting cultivation. If you practice this skill for a long time, the whole martial arts cultivation will be abandoned. Is there really an expert in Jinzhou who is willing to practice this ring pushing skill without doing anything every day?"

"My Lord is rich in the northwest. Maybe he doesn't know the hard work of ordinary Jianghu people. Nine out of ten ordinary Jianghu people are poor. It takes money to concentrate on practicing martial arts, to buy all kinds of good pills, and to learn martial arts. Where ordinary people have so much money to support practicing martial arts, they naturally have all kinds of means to make a living, such as taking escort in the escort agency, Some of them go straight to the underworld business to guard their homes, become guards of others, or become Rangers. The Jianghu outlaws recruited by the prefect of Luquan County belong to the latter kind, and they can work for thousands of liang of silver every year. Jinzhou's coal and iron benefits are unparalleled in the world, and it is difficult for outsiders to imagine the wealth of local rich families, There are countless experts who are willing to pay money and join the skill of pushing circle. For those rich families, although it is expensive to feed these experts, as long as these experts can win a game in the key pushing circle competition, the bet in that game may be one or two mines, Its value is definitely far more than the cost of these experts. There are contradictions and conflicts among rich families in many parts of Jinzhou. They compete for mine land. Most of the time, they don't find the government to solve it, but find push circle experts to compete and decide the outcome... "

"I see!" Yan Liqiang suddenly realized, and then looked at Sima Qingshan with approval, "you're good. You know a lot of things?"“ When I was young, I couldn't learn martial arts, so I had to learn literature. In order to learn literature, I went all over the world and paid more attention to the local customs and customs. Now I'm really lucky to be able to work around the childe! " Sima Qingshan lowered his head and said modestly. Yan Liqiang was talking here. On the ring pushing field over there, a young black mountain army officer in his twenties had won seven games in a row. No one had gone up in the eighth game. The young black mountain army officer looked at Yan Liqiang with burning eyes and said loudly, "I've heard that Lord Yan has outstanding martial arts and young heroes for a long time. I don't know if I can teach him in the end?" Hearing the words of the young officer in the ring pushing field, the huge banquet hall suddenly quieted down. Everyone's eyes focused on Yan Liqiang's face. They were full of curiosity. They had heard the name Yan Liqiang for a long time and had long wanted to see what the upstart and craftsman of the Han Empire could do, But it is rare for someone to challenge directly“ Nonsense... "Before Yan Liqiang spoke, Luo Yutian's face sank and he yelled," Lord Yan is a guest from afar. There is no reason for guests to end. Besides, Yan is famous all over the world. Young heroes are judged by you and don't go down to me... "Yan Liqiang saw that the young officer who wants to challenge himself still looks a little similar to Luo Yutian, So at first glance, he knew that it must be from the Luo family, possibly Luo Yutian's nephew and relatives, otherwise it could not be so bold. On this occasion, he didn't want to make the atmosphere too stiff, so he took a look at Yan Hong next to him. Yan Hong got up at once and walked to the pushing circle with a laugh. "I'm just itching. I'm going to try my luck. If I want to challenge Lord Yan, I'll pass my level first..." since someone has ended here, Luo Yutian's face slowed down. He just smiled at Yan Liqiang apologetically, and Yan Liqiang also smiled, This novel has been translated by www.novelhall.com and if you are reading this somewhere, they have stolen our translation
