Chapter 919: Brilliant Hanwei (43)
It is naturally impossible to hand over the city to the Eastern Army, which is equivalent to putting a noose around the neck of the army of the Qin State. The first negotiation between the two sides naturally broke up unhappily.
"Brother Gao, it's impossible for the Qin people to give us Huancheng, why do you still insist on it?" Ning Xin was a little confused by Gao Yuan's toughness, as she was well aware of the inside story of the Eastern Army, the current Eastern Army maintained a large number of troops in two directions, in fact, it was just a reluctance, as the saying goes, it was a swollen face and a fat man.
"I didn't expect that the Qin people would use the large land of the Wei people as a bargaining chip." Gao Yuan stared at the map, with a look of amazement on his face, "This is a land that spans thousands of miles, in order to take these lands, the Qin people don't know how much blood they shed, but they spit it out without hesitation, this determination, it is admirable, and it also makes people suspicious!"
"Is the eldest brother worried about swallowing these lands and making enemies with the Wei people?"
"The Wei people are not a problem, they have no capital now, they are just struggling to survive. Even if the Qin people don't destroy him, after I take the Qi State, I will naturally swallow him when I look back." Gao Yuan said: "I'm not worried about the Wei people, I'm worried about the purpose of the Qin people doing this."
"It's nothing more than letting the Wei people contain each other with us, we take the land of the Wei people, the Wei people will definitely not believe in us anymore, and then the Qin army will attack the Wei State, and our intervention will be reduced, after all, we must be regarded as buying the stolen goods, so we naturally hope that the owner will disappear." Ning Xin said with a smile.
"That's the first thing!" Gao Yuan shook his head, "Dig a little deeper, I doubt that the Qin people will make a major strategic change in the future, and their target is the Zhao State."
"It's not easy to swallow Zhao Guo in one bite, right?"
"We swallow this large piece of land, it is not easy to digest him, and we also have too many internal affairs to sort out, after Dai Yan is self-reliant, it is not an easy thing to stabilize a country, plus the affairs of the Qi State, the Qin people are sure that we are unable to interfere in the war between them and the Zhao State, so we will do so. If they go all out to deal with Wei, we will definitely take action, because Wei really doesn't need to fight, but if they fight Zhao, we will definitely sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. The Qin people are quite confident in themselves!"
"Since the eldest brother has touched the pulse of the Qin people, why don't we follow his line?" Ning Xin asked puzzled.
Gao Yuanha laughed, "I am very greedy for this land. Moreover, it is also good to let the Qin people fight with the Zhao people. It doesn't matter who wins or loses, I'm happy to see it happen."
"In that case, why do you have to go to the city?"
"I'm asking for a price, and he will definitely pay it back on the spot!" Gao Yuan smiled, "They dug a hole, and I jumped in without saying a word, so naturally I have to ask them for some compensation. It's definitely not possible to get something else, and it's always good to get something else. Let's say, get some money."
Ning Xin laughed out loud, "Look at you like this, you really look like a rich man in the countryside."
"When I was a child, I always dreamed of becoming a rich man! Make a cup of tea every day, sleep on a recliner, and sit next to a few beautiful women, or beat your legs, or fan, and be happy? Now it seems to be much better than a landlord, but he is not as good as a landlord." Gao Yuan was very distressed." If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, the county guards, and the generals from all walks of life only know how difficult it is to reach out and ask for money, but they don't know how difficult it is to make some money. It is said that Wang Wuyan's hair is about to turn white, I, but even my heart is dripping blood. If you can catch a little, you can make a little profit, this must be Jicheng, but it is a lot of expenses."
"Wang Wuyan is coming to Jicheng soon, I'm afraid that you will cry again." Ning Xin couldn't help but smile every time she saw Wang Wuyan's bitter gourd face.
"Jicheng has become like this, it will take time to restore its vitality, but it must be the former capital, as long as we are careful, it should be quite fast to recover. Besides, the two sons of the Tian family, don't they still want to send money?" Gao Yuanyi stretched out his hand and took Ning Xin into his arms, "Forget it, I've been messing with Fan Sui, an old fox for a long time, and my mouth is dry, let's go relax."
Ning Xinqiao's face turned red, "What are you doing?" It's a big day."
Gao Yuan coughed dryly, "What don't you do, what don't you do, the main thing is that there are too many palaces in this palace, you have taken a look at that one, let's go and take a look now?"
"I won't go!" said in his mouth, but he was hugged by Gao Yuanqiang, and his legs were already moving.
Fan Sui left the palace and was still accompanied by infantry to the post house.
"Infantry General, it's still early, I want to take a walk in this Jicheng, I don't know if there is anything I need to pay attention to?" Fan Sui asked.
The infantry smiled, "Since Fan Xiang has Yaxing, it is naturally possible, and now Jicheng is also too peaceful, and the law and order are acceptable, but now Jicheng is not as good as before, it is still very deserted, only South Street is still lively. There are also a few restaurants that have opened, so Fan Xiang might as well go and have a look."
"Very well, infantry general, can you accompany me for a few drinks?" Fan Sui said with a smile.
"Where did Fan Xiang say it, Fan Xiang came from afar to be a guest, I am the master, and I should be the one who invites you." The infantry laughed, "But Fan Xiang, the most famous thing in Jicheng is Xianyun Tower, where is it unaffordable."
"The name of Xianyun Tower, although I am far away in the Qin Kingdom, I have also heard of it, and I heard that this has nothing to do with the high capital governor?" FAN Suidao.
"Fan knows very well about my family governor, and it is said that the first Xianyun Tower opened in Liaoxi City, and it was indeed planned by my family governor, but although this Jicheng Xianyun Tower adheres to the consistent strategy of Xianyun Building, it has nothing to do with my family governor." The infantry accompanied Fan Sui, chatting while walking and walking, and the infantry talked with Fan Sui with great interest about the founding process of Xianyunlou.
"Don't ask for the best, but ask for the most expensive!" Hearing the words of the infantryman, Fan Sui couldn't help laughing, "This is a wonderful saying, but it fits the psychology of some people."
As the infantry said, South Street is much more lively than other places, not only is the street full of people, but the shops are basically open, but compared to other places in Jicheng, it is much more dilapidated, the houses are low, and the streets are much narrower.
"The Qi people attacked Jicheng, the damage to Jicheng was great, especially when they retreated in the end, they swept Jicheng again, the more prosperous area of Jicheng is the most affected place, but this South Street, most of the poor people are inhabited, are some bitter haha, but because of this, they have avoided the poison of the Qi people, after the war, here is the fastest place to recover." The infantry explained. The restaurant here is not big, but most of them are some characteristic gadgets, and the restaurant restaurant is also aimed at the common people, but it is a road of small profits and quick turnover, and the taste is very local, and it is not good to go to the elegant lobby, but for those of us who are from a bitter background, it is extremely delicious."
Fan Sui laughed, "Fan Mou is also from a humble background, but he is also quite good, General Bu's words are right in my arms, hey, what are you doing there?"
The infantry looked around and saw a lot of non-commissioned officers dressed in the uniforms of the Eastern Army lined up in a neat queue, crowded in front of a shop, although crowded, but very orderly.
"Let's go, let's see." The infantry didn't know what was going on there, his face was slightly gloomy, and he strode over, and when he saw this, he was dumbfounded, and this was actually a haggis noodle restaurant.
Reaching out and pulling over a soldier, he asked, "Why are you all crowded here?" Isn't there something special about this haggis noodle restaurant?"
The soldier turned his head and glanced at the infantry, but this time he saw the iron foot of the infantry, he didn't recognize the infantry, but he knew this iron foot, he was surprised, but he snapped his feet on the ground, put his right hand into a fist on his left chest, and gave a military salute to the infantry, "General Bu, this haggis restaurant is an authentic Jishi City flavor, the brothers have been away from home for a long time, and they have found this hometown style haggis noodle restaurant, so they all crowded here to taste it."
"Oh, Stone City-flavored, it can't be fake, right?"
"How could that be? We won't be able to distinguish the taste of this hometown."
When the infantry heard this, they were also interested, and turned their heads to look at Fan Sui, "Fan Xiang, this haggis noodle restaurant was opened by someone from our Jishi City, with an authentic grassland flavor, why don't we have a fun here?"
Fan Sui nodded slightly, but in his heart, he was shocked at this time, not for anything else, just for these soldiers of the Eastern Army without the supervision of the commander, in front of a small noodle restaurant, there was actually a neat line, this small noodle restaurant was very small, crowded so many people, the long line stretched out on the street, but there was no chaos at all, which shocked Fan Sui, the military discipline of the Qin people is known as the strictest in the world, but Fan Sui knows that it is only for the battle and the barracks, The arrogance of ordinary soldiers is enough. The Eastern Army was able to extend discipline beyond the barracks, and this alone was enough to make Fan Sui vigilant.
This trip to South Street was not unjust, just this point, Fan Sui felt that it was worth it, and after he went back, he wanted to have a good talk with the generals of the Qin army.
"Brothers, let go, the infantry general has also come to eat haggis noodles." The soldier shouted. At this shout, all the soldiers immediately turned their heads, and the iron foot soldiers were famous in the Eastern Army, and they were the idols in the minds of many soldiers.
"Fan Xiang, please." The infantry stretched out his hand, "If the infantry comes alone, then they will also have to queue up, but Fan Xiang is a distinguished guest, and the infantry will be touched, so there is no need to queue."
Squeezing into the store, the infantry saw at a glance that the boss and a few guys were sweating profusely, "The king is lame!" He cried out in surprise.
"General Step!" The boss heard the shouts of the infantrymen, raised his head, and couldn't help but be taken aback, "You, why are you here?" The lame king hurriedly ran from behind, rubbing his hands on the apron, and reached out to knock on a table, "Brothers, give way." A few soldiers of the Eastern Army who were eating noodles walked to the side with bowls.
"General Bu, you sit, and this guest officer, sit, sit!"
"Cripple Wang, didn't you open a teahouse outside Jishi City, why did you come here?" The infantry asked curiously.
Wang lame smiled, "Yes, the teahouse is still open, mother-in-law takes care of it, over the years, haven't I been a shareholder of the four seas trade, but also made some money, this time our army to Jicheng, I thought that this brother is far away from home, must miss the hometown flavor tightly, so I ran over, you see, this business is very good."
"You're really business-minded!" The infantry praised: "Look at you like this, you can expect to get rich!" How much does this haggis sell for a bowl?"
The lame king smiled, "One penny of silver!"
"What?" The infantry was stunned, "I said Wang Cripple, you are making black money, in Jishi City, a bowl of noodles is only a dozen yuan, you sell it for a penny!" Beware of the trouble that the Inspectorate comes to you."
Wang Cripple immediately called out to hit the sky, "General Bu, this is the flavor of our hometown, all the materials, I got them from Jishi City, the cost of this road is terrible, I am still a shareholder of Sihai Commerce, put away the money, they are really ruthless, calculated, I really can't make much money."
Fan Sui over there was also surprised when he heard that a bowl of noodles cost a penny.
The lame man over there continued: "Besides, the salary of our Eastern Army is so high, we can still afford to eat a bowl of noodles for a penny of silver."
"Yes, yes!" The soldiers crowded into the small shop all chimed in, "General Bu, money is not a problem, it's rare to have a hometown meal!"
The infantry smiled and spread his hands towards Fan Sui, "One is willing to fight, and the other is willing to suffer." R1152
