Chapter 124: The Thief and the Thief
At noon, the Huns and the Chinese each ate their own food.
Meng Tian looked at Fusu, who was sandwiching meat for Xiao Han, and said, "Thief and thief! ”
Fusu smiled proudly, Xiao Han was too clever today.
Xiao Han held the bowl and asked quietly, "General Mengda, have you deployed forces against their base camp?" ”
Meng Tian pulled his face: "Military secrets, don't ask!" ”
Xiao Han stuck out his tongue and smiled embarrassedly, it is estimated that there is, and he doesn't plan to enter the Qin History Research Institute, what is it for?
Fusu took another chopstick of meat and said, "Come, eat more, I'm waiting for you to send a message in the afternoon!" ”
Xiao Han happily caught it, Fusu was so good to her, and all she gave her was good meat.
Eating and eating, Meng Tian let out a long sigh. The two looked at Meng Tian curiously, what's wrong with the general?
Meng Tian said: "What a good way to transmit information, it's a pity that it was revealed to them, and we can't use it in the future, you talk about it, what a pity!" ”
The two of them let out an "oh" clearly, it turned out to be for this matter.
Xiao Han said: "It's okay, it's okay, we can think of other tricks." ”
Fusu said: "For example, ......"
Xiao Han said: "For example, the combination of the length of the whistle you said, such as the change in the color of the smoke, pass it from station to station, and it must be faster than a horse." Even I said that singing can be reused. Who stipulates that the sheep on the grassland can only be herded in one tone. We define a meaning for each tone and we can reuse it. ”
Meng Tian's eyes lit up, really, why didn't he think of it before?
"Little Han girl, how do you use the color of smoke to send a message?"
Xiao Han thought of fireworks, but there was no gunpowder at this time, how to say it? She thought for a moment and said, "This can find those alchemist warlocks." They sometimes find that some things emit white light, some emit purple light, some blue light and green light, and put these metals and combustible substances together, and the smoke and dust may be different colors. When a soldier in the distance sees a different color, he understands what is happening, so that the message is indeed transmitted much faster than a horse. ”
Fusu said excitedly, "Is it the same as the mineral powder you found in the pharmacy?" ”
Xiao Han shook his head and said, "No, some of my things are also metal, but that is the color before burning, and the color I am talking about is the color that only appears during the burning process, this has to be tried the same, and it will be recorded after the trial." ”
Meng Tian nodded, he knew which direction to work into. The first is to find a warlock, the second is to find the metal that can be found, and the third is to take the trouble to experiment and take the trouble to take notes.
Fusu said excitedly: "I think this is very interesting, I'll try it when I go back to Xianyang." ”
Xiao Han pouted disapprovingly: "Don't play, eldest son, this is dangerous." Warlocks, they're already experienced, you can't. If you break your appearance, you won't be handsome! ”
Fusu was depressed.
Meng Tian laughed, this pair of thieves and thieves is too interesting.
After lunch, negotiations will begin.
The knot is more than the reins and eats more. I thought that the mutton would not taste good if it was neither roasted nor cooked, but I didn't expect the chef of the Fusu family to fry the mutton so tender. He took the first bite and was fascinated by the taste, and felt that no amount of food was enough.
Mao Dun looked at this foodie with disdain, and he probably couldn't even pretend to be stupid in the afternoon negotiations.
The leader of the Lan clan is very regretful, he regrets that their strength is still too weak, if they were stronger, they would have set foot on Xianyang a long time ago, and all the good things in the world would have been enjoyed.
What the leader of the Huyan clan thinks is that in fact, it is not bad to belong to one country, end the state of war, communicate with each other, and grow together.
Tou Manshan Yu sighed: I can't stay here for a long time, it's food now, if the beautiful women wait for them at night, won't these people be able to get it back?
………
It's time for everyone to sit together and negotiate again.
There was the smell of tea wafting on several cases, and the people who were full were a little drowsy. After drinking another cup, he began to eat.
Meng Tian still had a dark face and looked at the person opposite coldly. Xiao Han remembered a sentence: "The king of heaven covers the tiger, and the river demon of Pagoda Town."
As soon as Fusu beckoned, Mu Mu and Meng Tian's personal soldiers brought in some things from outside the tent. They were placed on several cases in the same way for the Huns to see. There are rich and luxurious lacquer boxes, deep and dignified black pottery, delicate kitchen utensils, fresh and full grain, jujubes and walnuts, as well as fabric samples from Xiaohan shop, tie-dye, printing and dyeing, as well as a few delicate leather goods and wooden furniture.
When they retreated, Fusu said, "There are many things we can use for exchange, and these are just a few of them. I said that we will help the herders of the grassland to solve their livelihood problems, and this is not a lie. Whichever option you choose, you and other ordinary herders can get these good things through your own labor. ”
Tou Manshan Yu looked at the calico and was fascinated, his Wuzhu loved beauty the most. She must have been very happy to wear such a floral dress when she couldn't wear leather clothes in the summer.
I prefer kitchen utensils, and I don't know what these complicated things are used for?
Hu Yanshi looked at Tou Manshan Yu and boldly asked, "Is it that if we agree to cooperate, the people who teach us to learn will also teach us to make these handicrafts?" ”
Mao Dun glanced at him dissatisfied, there are not no craftsmen on the grassland, as long as they think well, they can do it.
Fusu nodded and said, "As long as the two sides cooperate well, there is nothing wrong with this." It's just a matter of taking it one step at a time. Of course, if your ministry can be a county in China, it will be a country, and everything is easy to say. ”
Lan looked at Fusu vigilantly, and it was the most unacceptable plan for him to be integrated into one country.
Tou Manshan felt that it was time to speak. "After a morning of arguing and a day of thinking, we agreed that we could reach an agreement, but we would make some adjustments to the limits of each plan," he said slowly. ”
Fusu nodded, as long as the attitude is good, the adjustment can be listened to.
Tou Mandanyu said: "Our opinion, let people teach our herdsmen to learn the trade, this is a good thing, you can send people to teach, we can send people to learn." However, teaching farming must be in a place where there is land to plant, so it is impossible to the north of Yinshan, let alone the north of Yangshan, and even more so north of the desert. ”
Fusu smiled, this guy is very cunning! If it is not north of Yinshan, it can only be south of Yinshan, if the Huns are entrenched in the south of Yinshan, can't they point to the Yellow River at any time and approach Xianyang?
He said gently but firmly: "It is absolutely not possible south of Yinshan. Otherwise, there is no point in our negotiations. If there is a place for farming, it is easy to solve, you can send people to give them a lot, let them farm with our farmers, and do everything for a few years. They learned the skills and went back. The conditions from the north of Yinshan to the south of Yangshan are almost, but farming is not absolutely impossible, what has not been opened is raw soil, and it has begun to come out, and it is ripe soil to plant a few stubbles. ”
Xiao Han snorted: "Moreover, the soil quality of that place is actually better than the soil quality of the skin, burning a stubble of grass and wood ashes, and then applying some cow dung, it is very good land." And the food with a long growing period tastes better. ”
Fusu answered: "Let Miss Xiaohan say this, I don't want to give you such a good land." Or, General Meng Tian, we cancel the second plan, right? ”
Meng Tian nodded solemnly. His task in the afternoon was basically to watch the pair of thieves and mothers-in-law perform.
The leader of the Huyan clan was a little anxious, and further north was the north of Yangshan, where he really didn't want to go!
The leader of the Lan clan calculated this account, is it worth it to retreat to the north of Yangshan with a thousand horses and five hundred cattle?
The scene was quiet for a while, and everyone was thinking in their hearts.
Tou Manshan Yu finally opened his mouth and said: "Don't rush to cancel the second plan first, aren't we discussing?" I think the number of animals you want is too much, can you reduce some of them, to be honest, we can't explain this amount when we go back. In addition, herders, like farmers, depend on the weather for food, and their incomes are also very unstable. Speaking of which, only by giving people a way to live can the world be peaceful! ”
Fusu and Meng Tian looked at each other, and these people could finally speak well. Let's move on!
The leader of the Huyan clan replied: "We are right, this amount is really difficult to explain when we go back. I have an idea, can the eldest prince take a look? ”
Fusu nodded and said, "I would like to hear about it." ”
The leader of the Huyan clan said: "Many people can't accept this statement of paying tribute to be a vassal, if it is considered a war reparation, then we will pay it, but can it be counted in the account of trade?" Our horses, cattle and sheep are sold cheaper, and your things are more expensive. So that you will not suffer, and we will be able to give an account. ”
The leader of the Lan clan "snorted" hatefully, this thing with his elbow facing outward!
The Knot of the Qiu Lin Clan looked at the leader of the Huyan Clan a little blankly, and he didn't understand what he meant for a while. How is this account calculated?
Meng Tian and Fusu's eyes lit up, this is an idea, then the rest should be a matter of number and location.
Fusu said: "This is a way to solve the problem, I don't know what Tou Manshan thinks?" ”
Tou Manshan looked at Hu Yan's pig teammates with dissatisfaction, to be honest, he blamed others, and he himself had no better way to make the Huns not scold him.
He said helplessly: "The number can be talked about again." ”
Fusu nodded and said, "Okay, this idea has been established, what about the location you chose?" ”
Tou Manshan looked at Lan's family and hoped that he would give him a suggestion. He now felt that Huyan guy was no longer reliable.
However, the leader of the Huyan clan did not have this kind of consciousness, and his thinking just now was recognized by both sides, and he was very encouraged. He looked at Touman Shan Yu and said, "Shan Yu, let's still choose the north of Yin Mountain, right?" ”
The leader of the Lan clan has not yet calculated whether a thousand horses and five hundred cattle are worth it or not, and this account is too difficult to calculate. He worriedly said to Tou Man Shan Yu: "Shan Yu, you say, I see the various plans are almost the same, and I am carrying it on my back, and it is better to buy it than to sell it." ”
At this time, he thought clearly, and he said in a loud voice: "I think we are north of Yin Mountain, the grass there is better, and if there are hundreds more, there will be hundreds more!"
Mao Dun can't wait to catch him out and beat him, this foodie, how many hundreds of heads are you understand?
Tou Manshan bit his lip and looked into the void worriedly.
Fusu and Meng Tian waited patiently.
Xiao Han simply put the brush up, saw which hair was not smooth, and used his fingernails to pluck the hair down one by one.
The giant Ruan Weng Trong, who had been a guest for a long time, clenched his fists in boredom, and everyone next to him could hear the sound of his bones.
Finally, Tou Manshan Yu said, "It's just north of Yin Mountain." The number of animals is indeed too much, can it be reduced? ”
Fusu thought for a moment and said, "Yes." What do you mean, General Meng? ”
Meng Tian thought for a moment and said, "Three thousand five hundred horses, one thousand eight hundred cattle, and one thousand sheep. ”
Fusu nodded. The general made a big deal, and the replacement of cattle and horses for sheep was indeed a very sincere concession.
Touman looked at his own people around him, this is indeed a big concession. Do you still disagree?
Mao Dun sighed heavily, his grandmother's, if you want something, you have to make people appreciate it, what kind of world is this?
Seeing that everyone had no opinions, Tou Manshan nodded and said, "Okay!" But I have one condition. ”
Fusu raised his hand generously and let him speak.
"In addition to us sending people to learn how to farm, I want Daqin to send blacksmiths, carpenters, and lacquerers to the north of Yinshan to teach us skills, as well as people who dig wells."
When Meng Tian heard this, he gave Fusu a wary look, Fusu smiled knowingly, and said: "This has to be done step by step, and it depends on whether the process of our cooperation is smooth." I'll ask someone to help you create the text first, I think you all have some heroic deeds that need to be passed on from generation to generation. The reason why we have such a heritage in China is that we developed it early, and secondly, we are good at accumulating and learning from the sages. For nomads, it would be a shame if something happened like a wind blowing away a handful of sand. ”
The leader of the Lan clan looked at Fusu vigilantly, he was very resistant to Chinese culture.
Maudun nodded, he felt it made sense. The defeat in this battle was that the weapons were inferior to the people, and the knowledge of the war was inferior to the people, and those things were all learned, and they were obtained by inheriting them first and then studying them. If you want not to suffer losses in the future, you have to study hard.
The leader of the Huyan clan also nodded, and he also thought it made sense.
The Knot of the Chulin clan scoffed at the matter, and he felt that none of them were as tempting as the cattle and sheep.
Tou Manshan did not give up, he said, "Creating words, well, this is what we need." Can you send us the man who digs the well first? ”
Fusu and Meng Tian looked at each other, and with the well water, there was no need for them to run around committing crimes, but it was not impossible. Thinking of this, Fusu nodded and said, "Yes, but you have to keep them safe." Every two months, let them go to our army camp south of Yinshan to show their faces, let us know that they are still alive. ”
Touman nodded. Fusu was too despised of people, he had no interest in the lives of craftsmen, he really wanted to dig wells to solve the problem of drinking water for people and livestock.
Now that the matter is now, it is time to talk about the details of cooperation. Fusu took a few of Xiaohan's records and looked at them, and suddenly realized a very serious problem, it was too difficult for the Huns to keep their promises. What to do?
He looked at Meng Tian and stopped talking. Meng Tian understood and said loudly: "We've been talking for a long time, let's take a rest first." In addition, if there is anything inconvenient for outsiders to listen to, you can communicate it separately. We'll talk again in half an hour. ”
