Ma Fu needed to provide Jing Ning with 30 spears, 50 knives, 30 bows, 3,000 arrows, and 20 good horses every year. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info spears are traded for two taels of silver each, three taels of knives, each bow is equipped with 100 arrows, a total of five taels, and good horses are subject to the situation, twenty taels of knives and fifty taels.

In other words, Jing Ning spends at least 760 taels on the purchase of weapons every year, not counting the food and salary issued to the soldiers, as well as the expenses on weekdays, as well as military uniforms.

Raising private soldiers is something that almost everyone with some rights will do, especially Jing Ning, who is sick. Rich people want their lives, and their lives are the most precious, so when he first knew that Jing Ning had private soldiers, Ma Fu was not surprised.

Jingning did not have many private soldiers, only one or two thousand. The first is that there is not enough hidden space here, and second, there is no reason to expand it at the moment. Therefore, Jingning's expenses are not too big.

It is precisely because of this that Ma Fu feels strange in his heart.

"Young Master Jing, you say."

"I don't need you to provide weapons, but you have to provide fifty horses a year, and a geographical map." Jing Ning said lightly, "Map, where you went, draw it for me, and the price of the sycophant will not change." Promise this, and the glass is up to you. ”

Speaking of which, Jing Ning's request is really not high, Ma Fu muttered in his heart, and he didn't dare to follow for a while.

If you don't need weapons, you need horses, as long as you have brains, you can guess that Jing Ning is going to expand his troops.

I like beauty, but I have to have that life to enjoy.

Ma Fu's mind was spinning, but he didn't dare to delay, Jing Ning's temper was not good, others heard about it, but he really felt it.

"Xiao Gongzi Jing, yes. It's just ......" Ma Fu continued with difficulty: "Geographical map, this will take time, I'm afraid I won't be able to get it out for you in a short time." ”

At this time, Liuli went to the garden under the guidance of the maid.

Jing Ning can be regarded as working Liuli, although this kung fu is of other uses. Liuli is wearing a special costume produced by the Embroidery Pavilion, since the Tea God Festival, Liuli has become a celebrity, how many talented businessmen want to share the Spring Festival with it, and how many have been rejected.

The face is like a hibiscus, the lips are like a little vermilion, the skin is whiter than snow, the waist is unbearable, and the goose egg face is shy, which is really pitiful for me.

Liuli had a faint smile on his face at this time, and Ma Fu's eyes have straightened since Liuli came in.

Jing Ning didn't take a second look at Liuli, and waved his hand directly, "You take it away, and it will be delivered tomorrow." ”

"Hey! Good! ”

O General...... There is no map like that of a merchant on the foot.

***

When Qi Lin arrived at Jingfu in the evening, a carriage happened to pass by her.

Inside the car, through the flying window cloth, Liuli saw a figure walking outside, and a pair of plain white hands clenched the handkerchief in his hand.

Now whether it is Qi Linwan or Lin Wan, there is no need to report when entering Jingfu, and you can go directly to Jingning.

Qi Linwan was informed by the housekeeper and found Jing Ning in the garden.

"No, here's for you." Qi Linwan directly handed over the jade pendant that she had played all the way to Jing Ning, and she kept one herself.

Jing Ning could see at a glance that it was a pair, and his face not only softened.

"By the way, who just came?" Qi Lin didn't miss the carriage at night, Jingfu was in the deepest part of the alley, there was only Jingfu, and the carriage must have come out of Jingfu.

Jing Ning replied lightly, "It's just a business partner." By the way, Lin Wan, Qin Lou came to me a few days ago to discuss your cooperation with his accessories store. ”

"Oh?" Qi Lin was not surprised, the business of the Embroidery Pavilion is good now, and the business of the accessories store will not be bad, and those who buy clothes will always buy some new accessories to decorate their clothes.

"I don't know what Qin Lou said?"

The previous cooperation between Qi Linwan and Qin Lou was to evenly distribute half of the embroidery pavilion on the second floor, with customized clothes on it, and selling jewelry next to it. Before, Qin Lou meant 30 taels per month, but after negotiation, it became 20 taels per month, no more, no less.

The business of the embroidery pavilion is good, and it is inevitable to expand the store, and Qin Lou has some thoughts and normal.

"Qin Lou means that in this case, he can give you the second real estate, and the silver is lower than the market price, but correspondingly, his jewelry is consigned to you."

"What about the rent?"

"10 taels a month."

"Hey, he's better at bargaining than I am. It's not impossible, and he doesn't have much to occupy. ”

"By the way, I came to you today to tell you, let's go to Qingcheng tomorrow to have a look."

"Okay."

Li Mansion in Linxian County

Li Cheng directly occupied it and said fiercely: "What did you say?" ”

Qi Chenglong's face was not good-looking, "Then Lin Wan said directly, what is your Li Mansion, and you also want to trade with them." Moreover, the embroidery pavilion is not without a good supply of fabrics, so there is no need to change people! ”

Li Cheng's face was gloomy, Qi Chenglong might exaggerate, but no matter how exaggerated, the main meaning would definitely remain the same.

Their Li family's shop is not big, but it is not small, and if the embroidery pavilion dares to say such a thing, it must have the life to bear!

"Second Master Qi, this matter is troublesome to you, you go back first, thank you, I won't wash you today."

After Qi Chenglong left, Li Cheng's face immediately became calm, and at the same time, a man in black walked out of the inner room.

"Steward Jing, what you said is really right, although Qi Chenglong is cunning, he can also do face kung fu, but this time he is directly full of lies."

Jing was expressionless, "That Qi Chenglong has a grudge against Lin Wan, so he will naturally say this." What my master means is that there is no need to cooperate with Qi Chenglong in the future, and he has an idea over there. ”

Li Cheng smiled and replied: "Then thank you to your master, by the way, the hundred military uniforms he needs have been prepared, and it will be interesting to see when the housekeeper will come to pick it up." ”

"Tomorrow."

On the other side, Huangfu in Huaying County

In the study, Huang Ming was checking the new batch of jade, and the housekeeper walked in with a letter.

"Master, there's a letter from Qingshan County."

At the same time, Qingzhou Qingcheng, after many days of training, the pastry chefs finally made the same cake and milk tea as Baihualou after spending a lot of flour, milk and tea.

Everyone was a little nervous, there was a big cake in the lobby, and every master in the hall held a plate and fork in his hand.

A rich master took a knife and cut it a few times, and then divided it evenly among everyone.

Everyone looked at the cake in their hands, and after a while, they forked it with a fork and put it in their mouths.

Time was silent for a moment, and then a cheer rang out!

"Success!!"
