Chapter 850: Returning Home

After bidding farewell to the old general Zhao, Feng Junhou finally ended his days of seeking pleasure and left Jicheng to go to Pingxiang.

Along the Tongwei River, the road is very easy to walk.

After all, Pingxiang and Jicheng have been very closely connected in recent years.

There are countless caravans of business trips to and from each month.

Most of the wool produced in Pingxiang has to pass through Jicheng, and then send it to three directions in Jicheng, Hanzhong, Guanzhong and Liangzhou.

At the same time, all kinds of materials transported from Shu also had to pass through Jicheng and then be sent to Pingxiang.

Therefore, this road along the two banks of the Tongwei River is extremely important.

In recent years, the school captain's office has also specially transferred the engineering battalion, and at the same time recruited a large number of Huyi manpower to expand and repair this road.

At the same time, a large number of Hu Yi laborers who rebelled against the Han Dynasty and were captured at the beginning were also thrown in.

For Feng Guiwang, in terms of infrastructure, what he lacks now is not basic planning and grassroots foremen, but a large number of labor.

The thirst for labor, Feng Ghost King is forever endless.

Other people's families just want those laborers who can farm, and later they developed to Hu Nu who can weave at most, but Feng Ghost King is different.

He wants everything.

If you don't know how to farm, go to the construction site, go to the mine, as long as you have hands and feet, there is always a place for you.

Even children, that is a possible reserve naturalized Hu people.

Read a few more a, o, and e, read a few more sentences of "The descendants do not seek summer, and the Yi does not mess with China", and then speak a plausible Xia Luo Yin: "I am a Yongliang person......"

Wouldn't that be a big man's people?

This expansion is supported by an adequate food supply.

This is also why Feng Yong, even if he is obviously in the case of sufficient staple food, still has to let the second lady of the Xu family try his best to open up the wasteland and do a good job of preparing for the waste and storing grain.

Walking on this avenue, Feng Yong's group has many people, even if you want to keep a low profile, it is difficult.

Even if the banner is not raised, as long as the business travelers on the road have a little vision, they all know that it must be the car of a big man in the school captain's mansion, and they have taken the initiative to avoid it.

Zhang Xingyi lifted the corner of the curtain and looked out.

I saw people and cars coming and going on the road, all of them walked in groups, and few walked alone.

If you don't look at anything else, just look at the ox carts, horse carts, and donkey carts, and you can know that most of these caravans traveling in groups have heels.

Because ordinary people can't save so many cows, horses and donkeys.

Even now with Longyou, at the same time, the Yueshan side has begun to sell large livestock.

However, except for the large livestock used for farming, such as cattle, which are specially rented by the government to farmers, the rest is basically still in the hands of large households.

For those who mainly farm, cattle are more expensive than horses.

A considerable part of the cultivated land in Shu is paddy fields, and horses can't go down to pull plows.

What's more, although the eight-ox plow was launched for those families, a part of the hidden population was liberated.

But the oxen they are going to use...... That's a lot more than it used to be.

That is to say, before the head of the cangtou Qianshou had the habit of pulling a plough without using oxen, and using people to pull the plow.

In addition, Feng Yong's ranch opened up in Hanzhong from the beginning, as well as the large-scale development of Yueshan later, can provide a relatively stable channel for large-scale livestock sales and leasing.

Therefore, the contradiction between supply and demand between ploughing cattle and arable land has not been exacerbated.

As for now, the three places of Hanzhong, Yueshan, and Longyou can supply cattle.

However, the family with a cow, even if it is no longer a village tyrant, is at least still the top family in the village.

As for those who can use oxen to pull carts and transport goods, there is nothing else to think of except the family and the powerful.

Even if a rich man with thousands of acres of fertile land in the local area really wants to take out a few cows, pull so many goods, and walk such a long way, he can still feel distressed and bleed.

Among these people, the more special thing is that there are some Hu people mixed in those caravans.

Zhang Xingyi knew that these Hu people were basically transformed from the Hu tribe who originally went to Qishan to help transport grain to the school governor's mansion.

Originally, it was because the Yunnan horses in the hands of the Xinghan Society could not leave Qishan in winter, so the school governor's office asked the Hu people to go to Qishan to transport their own rations.

Later, the school governor's office singled out some of the tribes that passed the inspection, issued them qualifications, and asked them to help transport supplies.

Of course, there is a reward afterwards.

This is regarded as the benefit issued by the school captain's office to the tribes that first attached to the Han Dynasty.

In the later stage, the foundation of the school captain's mansion became thicker and thicker, and many Hu people began to look down on this profit.

They either open pastures to exploit labor to earn surplus value, or let their tribesmen participate in righteousness, and sell their lives to earn a future.

The dark-hearted one directly treated the clansmen as laborers, packed a part of it and sold it to Feng Ghost King, earning the first pot of gold as quickly as possible, and at the same time earning the favor of Feng Ghost King.

Then find a way to clear your name.

Transporting supplies to the Captain's Mansion was one of the back roads left by King Feng Ghost for this small group of Heart Black Qu Shuai.

Although at first glance, the profit is not as much as that of the smart people in front of them.

It is a long-term livelihood, as long as the school captain's mansion still needs to transport materials every day, then they can always live on this.

As long as they are proficient, even if King Feng Ghost doesn't care about Longyou in the future, can the government really change someone else?

It is related to the supply of materials in the army, and the rules in the army are that it is better to use new than to be familiar, and no one will move until they are forced to do so.

After all, this is a matter of life in the army.

It really happened that something went wrong, and it was going to lose my head.

Of course, if the Han can control Liangzhou in the future, then this channel will only last longer.

But if the Han loses Longyou......

Feng Ghost King said: It's not my territory, what do I care?

Even if I want to take care of it, then I have to agree with Wei Thief, right?

So everyone must work hard, don't let the Wei thief make a comeback again, otherwise the good days will be gone, then you can't blame me!

Zhang Xingyi looked at the Hu people outside who were bending over to his side, knowing that this was their honor salute to the Captain's Mansion, so he turned his head and smiled:

"Now the school captain's mansion is really prestigious in the eyes of the Hu people in Yongliang."

Hold the section to protect, sort out its grievances, follow the line when the year is old, ask about the suffering, send the post to pass the movement, make the Qiang outside the Saiwai Yi the eyes and ears of the officials, and ride ten thousand horses out of the fortress to chase the captives.

The hundred years of Qiang chaos in Liangzhou have gradually made people forget the majesty of the former Han Huqiang captain.

After the first battle of Xiaoguan, the land of Yongliang finally ushered in an extremely strong captain again.

The thieves are bold, and the Hu concubines are served.

Feng Yong, who was lying in the car without showing his face, looked at the beautiful woman smiling, and couldn't help but feel a little impulsive in his heart:

"Do you want to see how famous you are?"

Zhang Xingyi blinked: "What do you mean?" ”

Feng Yong didn't answer, and commanded directly outside:

"Someone."

"What does the prince command?"

"Pass the order, raise my banner."

"No!"

"The prince has an order, raise the flag!"

"The prince has an order, raise the flag!"

……

The sound of orders came down wave after wave, and in the sound of whining horns, the banner of Feng Zi was soon raised at the front of the team.

The merchant on the official road was like a frying pan, and suddenly the people called the horses to neigh.

The caravans, which had already taken the initiative to avoid the distance, stopped directly on the side of the road, allowing the team holding the banner of Feng Zi to pass them, and then dared to move forward again.

Many of the Hu people who originally held their chests and saluted directly prostrate on the ground.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Xingyi kicked him dissatisfied, "It was you who said not to disturb the people under the banner, now look outside......"

Feng Yong laughed: "It's almost time to Pingxiang, and if you hide the banner, I'm afraid that the sergeants from the Captain's Mansion will be sent out to surround it." ”

"I don't want to be a captain who is surrounded by my own soldiers as an unknown enemy."

Although Pingxiang had already been informed, the township pavilion system rebuilt by Feng Yong himself also played a warning role in many cases.

In particular, Pingxiang, as the seat of the Qiang's school governor's office, has deliberately set up many villages and dock forts on its periphery, which are used for early warning.

As long as there are more than a certain number of teams and enter a certain range around Pingxiang, they will be targeted by these villages and dock forts.

If the team fails to prove their identity in time, the readiness system will kick in.

This can be regarded as a way to hide troops from the people.

Sure enough, not long after, the front of the team slowed down, and then Feng Yong saw a group of more than a dozen cavalry next to the official road turning around and running in the direction of Pingxiang again.

They should have been preparing to come for interrogation, just in time to see the team playing the banner, and after contacting the team's leading officer, they are now returning to Pingxiang to report the news.

Feng Yong looked at their distant backs and nodded slightly, quite satisfied.

Because this is the realm that has entered the official guard, there should be news in advance.

Zhang Xingyi stuck to Feng Yong's side, followed his gaze, and naturally saw that scene.

She couldn't help but say with some surprise:

"Why haven't I seen anything like this after I've walked so many times before?"

What's even more strange is that why he is in charge of the secretariat and doesn't even know about it?

She looked at Feng Yong with an inquiring gaze.

"Cough, this, it's about the city defense and military, and Sanniang is in charge of it......"

Feng Junhou's eyes flickered.

Zhang Xingyi sneered, and then kicked him hatefully: "Eccentric!" ”

Feng Junhou let out an "oops" and was kicked out of the car by this kick.

Then he turned over and got on his horse very slowly: "Speed up!" ”

"The prince ordered, speed up!"

"Speed up!"

The whole team began to trot.

It's just that the students who are at the bottom of the queue are not as experienced as these guards, and they are not from a specialized military background.

This one was unprepared, and the team scattered all at once.

"Hurry, hurry! Urgent acceleration. ”

Zhang Yuan hurriedly formed the team, and at the same time secretly complained in his heart:

"The mountain chief also said that his performance was good and he had passed the assessment, but he didn't expect this trick to ......"

He wasn't afraid, but these juniors who came out of the academy were a little unbearable.

The eccentric Feng Guan got the specific location of Feng Junhou, calculated the time, held a child in one hand, and stood at the gate of the school captain's mansion waiting for his own Ah Lang to return.

Feng Junhou, who was riding on a horse, rolled off his horse and ran over as soon as he saw the two little people carved in pink and jade at the gate of the mansion:

"My little darling, you want to kill me!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hands to pick up his children.

Ah Worm watched the tall man pounce on him, and felt that it was not safe to stand at the feet of Ah Mu, so he subconsciously wanted to hide behind.

Shuangshuang looked at Feng Junhou vigilantly, and then suddenly shouted "hey, hey, hey", stretched out his little short legs, and kicked a few times, preventing Feng Yong from getting close to him.

"It's the end of the calf!"

Feng Junhou slapped his thigh and said to his own fine gentleman, "I'll just say it, this time, the child won't recognize me again." ”

Guan Ji pursed her lips and smiled, pulled Ah Worm out, and lifted Shuangshuang again, making her stand on tiptoe and no longer able to kick out.

"Ah worm, Shuangshuang, call your lord."

Ah Worm glanced up at his mother, then at Feng Yong, and then at the door of his own mansion behind him, and was not angry.

Shuangshuang was straightforward, pointed to the lieutenant's mansion behind him, and said in a milky voice:

"Adults are ...... inside"

No way!

Feng Junhou's eyes widened all of a sudden, and he stared at Guan Ji tremblingly.

You mother-in-law, how long have I been gone, you dare to ...... An dare?!

Love is a light......

When Guan Ji heard Shuangshuang's words, she subconsciously wanted to laugh, and then forcibly held back, and then looked at Feng Junhou's wonderful expression, and couldn't help it anymore at the moment, "plop".

What the hell are you laughing at?

And a smile?

If I hadn't been able to beat you, believe it or not, I'd have drawn my sword on the spot and splattered five steps with blood right now?

"I'll talk about it when I get home."

Feng Junhou gritted his teeth, snorted, and stepped across the door, but heard someone behind him say:

"Worm, Shuangshuang, remember me? Come and call my aunt ......."

Hearing Zhang Xiaosi's voice, Feng Junhou's anger suddenly vanished.

It was Guan Ji, who saw Zhang Xingyi getting out of the car, and her eyes narrowed slightly.

The former little lady of the Zhang family was already known as a flower and a moon.

Now, after more than three months, it is even more amazing than before.

The face was radiant, and there was no trace of the fatigue of the journey at all.

"First, let's go back to the house first, what are you doing standing at the door?"

Feng Junhou swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said dryly.

"Okay, let's go, come, sister, let me hug the worms, I'm about to kill them."

Zhang Xingyi didn't seem to notice the faint murderous aura in Guan Ji's eyes, and walked inside with a worm in his arms.

At this time, Feng Junhou was even more sensitive than the woman who solved the case, and he only felt that his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

Careless, careless!

The group stepped into the backyard, and suddenly pointed to a large stone at the door and shouted, "My lord." ”

Feng Yong looked at Guan Ji in astonishment.

Guan Ji smiled faintly: "The concubine is afraid that the children will forget what the adults say, so they will let them shout at the stones every day, but they have never thought about it, but they are used to it." ”

"Flutter...... Haha......"

When Zhang Xingyi heard this, he stumbled with laughter on the spot, and almost threw the worm in his arms to the ground.

"Be careful!"

Feng Yong hurriedly stepped up with an arrow and took the worm.

Then he said to Guan Ji with a dry smile: "It's good, it's good, at least I haven't forgotten how adults call ......"

"Ah Lang is making fun of the concubine."

Guan Ji smiled softly.

It was night, and Feng Junhou could not be at peace for a moment.

Early the next morning, Ah Mei came in with toiletries to serve, but saw Feng Junhou sitting on the edge of the couch, his eyes glazed, his face was blue, and his eyes were black, like a corpse without energy.
