Chapter 146 I didn't play well this time, I'll play better next time.
"Brother Chen—"
Huang Feihong was shocked, never expecting Chen Wen to take the initiative.
Could it be that he also harbored the competitive spirit of martial artists?
But that shouldn't be the case!
After spending this time together, he had come to understand very well that Chen Wen had no desire for fame or fortune, and would not care about empty titles about who was stronger or weaker.
In fact, apart from his own brothers, almost no one outside knew that he was skilled in martial arts.
So what does it mean now?
He did not act rashly and continued to wait for Chen Wen's next move.
"You can use the Shadowless Kick too!?"
Nalan Yuanshu was genuinely surprised when he heard Chen Wen's words.
Of all the intelligence he received, Chen Wen was a skilled physician and a shrewd businessman, but he was never mentioned as a martial artist!
This person actually knows martial arts?
And judging from his tone, he even knows Wong Fei-hung's signature moves?
Chen Wen seemed very excited as he walked up to Nalan Yuanshu, all the way under everyone's gaze.
He nodded seriously: "That's right! I can also use the Shadowless Kick! Would you like to see it, sir?"
Nalan Yuanshu was naturally eager to see the Shadowless Kick, but that was Huang Feihong's signature move. What exactly did Chen Wen mean?
However, if this guy really knows martial arts, he might even know the Shadowless Kick.
If it's hidden so deeply, then many things need to be reconsidered.
Just as Nalan Yuanshu began to have doubts.
Chen Wen had already turned around and waved to two yamen runners who were watching the commotion from the sidelines: "Brothers, come and lend a hand."
The two constables were puzzled, but considering that Chen Wen was a guest of honor of their master, they quickly went over.
"Hold on tight."
Chen Wen put one arm around the other's shoulder, and with their support, he suddenly jumped upwards.
His feet left the ground, and he kicked wildly in the air a few times without any strategy.
"Shadowless Kick!"
Chen Wen shouted loudly, landed back on the dusty ground, clapped his hands, and explained in a serious tone without blushing or panting.
"Look, this kick is so fast that people can't even see it, so it's called the Shadowless Kick!"
"Pfft—"
It's unclear which constable couldn't help but laugh out loud first, but they quickly covered their mouths.
The others were also shrugging their shoulders, struggling to hold back their laughter.
Nalan Yuanshu was taken aback at first, then looked at Chen Wen's serious expression and the comical demonstration just now.
I couldn't help but shake my head and chuckle, and the slight doubt in my heart instantly vanished.
So, after all that fuss, this is what the so-called Shadowless Kick looks like?
This Chen Wen is truly a remarkable person.
Huang Feihong stood to the side with an extremely strange expression, wanting to laugh but unable to, and could only force himself to hold it in.
Chen Wen himself didn't seem to think he was ashamed at all; on the contrary, he was quite proud: "I usually kick really fast, maybe I didn't perform well today. Next time I have the chance, I'll definitely play better for the adults!"
"Enough, enough!" Nalan Yuanshu laughed and waved his hands repeatedly. "Brother Chen is joking."
"Your talent and ability surpasses even the medical field of saving lives; it is a world-class skill."
"We who wield knives and sticks are ultimately just roughnecks. Brother Chen's skills, those are truly formidable!"
He smoothly changed the subject, his tone becoming more formal: "Actually, besides getting to know you both, I did invite you here today to discuss a serious matter with Brother Chen."
"Please speak, sir." Chen Wen also put away his joking expression.
"It concerns the procurement of medicines for the army," Nalan Yuan recounted. "Now that the new army is being trained and defenses in various regions need to be strengthened, the consumption of medicines for external injuries and epidemics is enormous."
"Baozhilin's medicines are renowned for their remarkable efficacy. I wonder if you could supply a batch? As for the price, that's negotiable."
Chen Wen immediately nodded: "You flatter me, sir. Protecting the borders and ensuring the safety of the people is our duty. Moreover, now that we are honored by your high regard, our Jing'an Battalion is practically half a member of the imperial court, and we should do our utmost."
"I'll immediately send a message back to the factory and have a batch of medicine delivered as soon as possible!"
"Good! Brother Chen is indeed straightforward!" Nalan Yuanshu clapped his hands and laughed, praising him once again.
After exchanging a few more polite words, Chen Wen bid farewell to Huang Feihong.
Nalan Yuanshu stood at the entrance of the camp, a smile on his face, watching Chen Wen and Huang Feihong's figures disappear around the street corner.
The smile on his face vanished instantly, and his eyes turned cold.
Today's meeting has achieved its purpose.
That Chen Wen looks young, but he's very tactful in his words and actions, knows how to advance and retreat, and is also good at putting on an act.
And then there's Wong Fei-hung, his martial arts skills are indeed quite good, he's a useful person.
Why was he so polite to Chen Wen? It was all for those medicines!
He knew all too well how many lives these things could save on the battlefield, and how many soldiers could be inspired to fight to the death.
The imperial army needs to be trained, and defenses in various regions need to be strengthened.
None of these can be separated from real money and these life-saving items.
What Chen Wen held in his hands was an inexhaustible gold mine.
Unfortunately, the method of making this medicine was too unique, and even the old guys in the Imperial Medical Academy couldn't crack it.
Otherwise, why would there be such a need to go to such lengths to befriend someone and offer them an official position?
Why not just find a pretext and snatch the person and the prescription together? Wouldn't that be cleaner and more efficient?
Unfortunately, it doesn't work!
Chen Wen may look refined, but he's no ordinary person; he's capable of causing such a commotion and subduing someone like Huang Feihong.
Keep him calm, offer him some incentives, let him set up the Jing'an Camp's structure, and get him to produce more medicine.
When the time is right, or when a way to crack the prescription is found —
A barely perceptible glint of fierceness flashed in Nalan Yuanshu's eyes.
At that time, these arrogant merchants who dared to try to curry favor with the powerful and wealthy through some clever tricks will be exposed.
And their so-called militias are nothing but meat on a chopping board.
At least for now, this move is going relatively smoothly.
Chen Wen and Huang Feihong are temporarily in our hands.
Nalan Yuanshu composed himself, stopped thinking about it, and turned back to the yamen, as if the banquet that had just been a pleasant affair had never happened.
the other side.
Huang Feihong and Chen Wen returned to the inn on their own. After walking for a long time, he couldn't help but speak up: "Brother Chen, I understand that you want the name 'Jing'an Camp' to give our brothers an extra layer of protection, making things easier for us in the future."
"But this is ultimately not a long-term solution; cooperating with Nalan Yuanshu is tantamount to seeking help from a tiger!"
Chen Wen looked relaxed upon hearing this, even with a hint of a smile: "Brother Huang, don't worry. Dealing with this kind of person is actually quite simple."
"Whoever tries to take advantage of us, we'll kill them first. Once we're all gone, no matter how cunning their schemes are or how high their official rank is, it's all meaningless."
Huang Feihong's eyes lit up, he felt relieved, and a smile appeared on his face.
He knew that Chen Wen would never truly submit to Nalan Yuanshu.
And judging from this, action is imminent.
"I understand now. In that case, does that mean we don't need to prepare the batch of medicine we promised him?"
"No, prepare as usual." Chen Wen shook his head, "and prepare to the highest standards and with the best quality."
Huang Feihong asked in confusion, "Give it back to him?"
Chen Wen smiled and shook his head: "The medicine is still prepared, but who will receive it in the end—that's uncertain."
Huang Feihong was taken aback at first, then suddenly realized what he meant and couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Great! I'll send a telegram as soon as I get back, telling the factory to prepare immediately, and to get the best!"
