Zang Ba is gone? ”

When Gan Shi heard the report from Chang Xuan, he was a little disappointed and a little nervous.

"Divine envoy, Zang Ba's thief is not only gone, but he also put down his words and says that he will have nothing to do with Taiping Dao in the future, he is rebelling!"

Chang Feng's eyes showed a fierce light, and he waited for Gan Shi to give an order, and he was ready to lead people to hunt down Zang Ba.

Rebel? Gan Shi couldn't help pouting in his heart.

You Tarzan thieves still have the face to say that others have rebelled.

"Let's go, let's go, General Tiangong has a word first, since he has decided to break off with Taiping Dao, as long as he doesn't play the banner of the Yellow Turban Army in the future, whether he lives or dies, it has nothing to do with me.

By the way, General Chang, what is your decision? ”

Chang Feng immediately bowed and said, "The villain has long hoped to follow Lord Yiming, and I also asked the divine envoy to introduce the prime minister of Ma Guo for me!" ”

Gan Shi touched his beard and said with a smile, "Okay!" Then ask General Chang to count the heroes who are willing to go out of the mountain to join the Prime Minister of Ma Guo, and in a few days General Chang and I will go to see the Prime Minister of Ma Guo first, and the rest of the people will come out slowly. ”

"I don't know... What official position did the Prime Minister give us? Chang Feng asked impatiently.

Gan Shi's heart was a little unhappy, and he comforted him, "General Yichang's ability, coupled with so many sergeants, I expect that there will be a position of military commander." ”

"Is it just a military horse?" Chang Feng frowned and said, "If you can't be the captain, the villain hopes to be a county order!" ”

Gan Shi immediately sensed Chang Xuan's ambition.

Jun Sima is the official of Qianshi, and the county order is only 600 stones.

The reason for choosing the big and the small is because they do not want to be subordinate.

After all, the military Sima is under the command of the commander in the army, and the county order is a hundred miles of marquis.

These thieves...

"I want to come to the Malaysian Prime Minister's Congress to consider it." Gan Shi appeased, and when Chang Feng went out, his face suddenly became serious.

It seems that the camp owner has to make some preparations.

- Plains Country

Mi Zhu sat on the ox cart, looking at the plain county town that could already be seen from afar, and the stone in his heart couldn't help but let go.

Behind his ox cart was a long line of grain carts that stretched so long that there was no end in sight.

A group of samurai on horseback caught up, led by a young man of about twenty years old, who pulled his horse and shouted to Mi Zhu, "Brother, the front is Pingyuan County, we have finally arrived." ”

This young man is Mi Fang, the younger brother of Mi Zhu.

Maybe it's because of his youth, maybe it's because he doesn't have the pressure of running a family business, and Mi Zhu, who likes to make friends with celebrities on weekdays, is different, Mi Fang likes to dance with guns and sticks more, and therefore, when he learned that he was going to escort a large amount of food this time, he volunteered to be the captain of the escort team.

"Zifang, you go to the rear and take a look, don't let anyone be left behind."

"Brother, don't worry!"

Mi Zhu's grain team is so huge, Ma Qiang has already gotten the news, he smiled and led a group of people to greet outside the city, Mi Zhu saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

"Zizhong, you're making me wait so hard!"

Ma Qiang said, his nose was a little sour.

If it's a little late, Ma Qiang will have to go to the big clan to borrow (qiang) grain.

The days without food are too sad.

Thanks to Cao Cao's help, he quickly helped Ma Qiang run down the Taicang of the Plains Country and was damaged and exempted from all the procedures for military transportation, otherwise Ma Qiang would have a headache What to do with the next batch of military rations.

I have to say that Cao Cao when he was young was still very righteous! I never say a word when I ask him for help.

"Let the minister of the country wait for a long time, forgive the sin, forgive the sin, this time Zhu transferred one million stone grain from Xuzhou, Yangzhou, and Yuzhou, and another three million stone has been ordered, and it will be sent here within three months!"

"Good! Wow! Zizhong has worked hard all the way, go, follow me into the city! ”

At this time, the price of grain was about 300 yuan per stone, which was slightly more expensive than in previous years, mainly because of last year's military disaster and the Xiliang War, which made the grain price unable to fall.

Although Mi Zhu said that he could get tens of millions of stone of grain, that was only if Ma Qiang had enough money.

Ma Qiang, of course... No.

Although after two major robberies, Ma Qiang's cash in his hand was as high as 140 million, but Ma Qiang scraped a lot and spent more money, just the tens of thousands of people spent tens of millions of wasteland costs, as well as those schools, roads, etc., Ma Qiang only left 20 million to the bottom, and gave Mi Zhu 60 million money for procurement.

Mi Zhu waved his hand and promised to let Ma Qiang use 60 million yuan to purchase 120 million grains, which is considered 4 million stones, as for the 60 million... Naturally, it will not be Mi Zhu's burden, but Ma Qiang promised in the name of the minister of the plain country to return 70 million yuan or equivalent goods and grain after a year.

It's a low-interest loan.

Speaking of which, Ma Qiang seems to have been borrowing money since he started....

How many people can Ma Qiang raise with these four million stone of grain, according to a soldier's annual ration of forty stones, these grains can support Ma Qiang to raise an army of 100,000 for a year.

It is worth mentioning that all these grains are millet, that is, corn, and Ma Qiang only learned in this era that because millet is easier to preserve, most of those grain merchants are engaged in millet business.

According to Mi Zhu, as long as it is properly preserved, corn can be stored for eight or nine years, while rice can only be stored for four or five years.

For ancient times, when transportation was difficult, the easier it was to preserve, the more suitable it was for long-distance transportation.

Ma Qiang had food in his hand, and his heart was not panicked, so he took the Mizhu brothers to visit the soon-to-be-built school and the plain ancestral hall.

"This is the Plains Temple, you see, the one on the left is called Valhalla, which is prepared for the soldiers of the Plains Kingdom, so that future generations can remember that this peaceful day was not easy to come by.

On the right is the Purple Light Pavilion, which is prepared for me to be a famous person in the Plains, so that future generations can admire the demeanor of the sages.

As for the middle one, it is the main hall, the top is the ancestral hall of the monarchs of the plain country and the nobles of the horses, and the lower part is the tablet of the people. ”

Looking at the renovated Plains Temple, although the Mizhu brothers were amazed, Ma Qiang could see that they didn't care too much about it in their hearts.

Also, this thing is to let the people spend less money, and by the way, it is used by the horse nobles.

"Let's go, let's go to the academy and have a look."

Ma Qiang took the Mizhu brothers to a mansion that was slightly smaller than the Pingyuan Temple just now, and said, "This is my Pingyuan No. 1 High School in the future, which can accommodate 30 classes and more than 1,000 people!" ”

Ma Qiang pointed around and said, "Although there are no students yet, after the primary and junior high schools in various places are built, this place can be a big man for me, a plain for me, and a steady stream of talents!" ”

Mi Zhu was extremely interested in this, and asked, "Dare to ask the Minister of State, what is the plan for this primary school and junior high school?" ”

Ma Qiang said the preliminary idea: "Each township pavilion, according to the number of household registration, set up one to three primary schools, each county set up a junior high school, Pingyuan County added a high school, now with Zizhong, you transport food, I am ready to exempt all primary school tuition, public expense study!" ”

Ma Qiang's pole can be regarded as running directly into a harmonious society!
