An army of more than 2,000 people was killed, perhaps it is not a "big deal" for the current "big man"; But this is a team to escort supplies to the capital! Gotta give me some reaction! Wu Shangui told you, it's really not, uh, it's still a little, a month ago, the Northern Capital sent a team of more than 5,000 officers and soldiers, and then there was no more; Went back shortly after. In this regard, Wu Shangui said that this operation was too sassy and could not be understood; These messages were all collected by Lin Youfu.

More than two months have passed since the last battle, and the captives have built more than a hundred miles of roads in the canyon, cement, or homemade, hehe... It's only five or six meters wide. This is fast or slow, Wu Shangui doesn't understand, more than 1,200 people are dead, and there are more than a thousand people who are running.

The captives were now at peace, and after a month's work of building the road, they were suddenly gathered; Why? Send money! I can be full and rich, and I can be restless! What is the purpose of being a soldier, it's not a mixed meal, and now the food of a soldier is not fragrant! At the end of the year, they can make ends meet when they are fighting, and for many local officers and soldiers, the military is nothing.

A few days ago, the money was sent again, so that now many prisoners now have the idea that it is good to be able to work for a long time

Actually! Regarding the matter of giving money to the prisoners, Lin Pingzhi has been chattering in Wu Shangui's ear, and Wu Shangui has not paid much attention to this. The prisoners took up a lot of Wu Shangui's manpower, and now the minions under his command did not have a high level of education, and the newly sent slaves had to be trained. There are also a lot of homeless people who come to take refuge because of Wu Shangui's fame, why do some homeless people come to take refuge, hey have you seen the bandits who built bridges and repaired roads, and; The one who sends the money, that's the most important thing.

For the displaced people who come to take refuge, Wu Shangui is willing to build the road, so he arranges to repair the road, and the land in the hair pot that wants to farm is cleared by himself, of course, the land rent is still collected, and the first year is five layers, don't think that Wu Shangui is black-hearted, and the displaced people who come to take refuge drag their families and bring their mouths are nothing; The seedlings and rations are all Wu Shangui is out, and Wu Shangui knows about the promotion of rice and the fight against rice, and it is only the first year, and it will have to be lowered in the future. Not only that, Wu Shangui also built a place at the foot of Houshan Mountain. In primary school, whether it is the children of the homeless family or the little minions of their own family, they all have to go to school there; Mandatory.

Wu Shangui took the time to teach every day, and the first batch of Yili was naturally indispensable, Lin Pingzhi was caught, and this kid was much stronger than his own minions after being converted.

As Wu Shangui's fame gradually grew, the caravans did not appear to be the first iron, not only that, but at the foot of the mountain were also spontaneously built by merchants to build a small market, and the scale seemed to be expanding; The robbery was no longer possible, and it was changed to collect protection money and taxes.

Some businessmen also followed the "road repair team" to repair the inn to that, why, some people in the road repair team are rich, but there are five taels per month, not to mention that there are some small stewards who are generous?

There is also a reason why the bazaar at the foot of the mountain can be built, and when the road is built for dozens of miles, there are merchants who are inquiring about what it is, how much it costs, etc. Then the minions at the bottom reported to Wu Shangui, and then Wu Shangui rolled his eyes, and built a small building similar to an office "building" at the foot of the mountain, about four floors.

Not only that, but he also put porcelain tiles on the canvas, which was white, and the floor was supplemented with porcelain tiles; The windows are covered with green "glass"; This thing is self-made, and Wu Shangui naturally fooled it out after someone made it, even if there was systematic information, Wu Shangui only made it like this.

Then he explained to the guard's minions, and if a merchant asked, it was like and that and that, and then, the current bazaar was achieved.

And for the businessmen who come and go, that small building looks strange, so I won't comment on it. Cement-glass and other things are good, and things called "tiles" can also be tried in a batch.

In terms of price! Wu Shangui ordered a ton of cement and a ton of grain, and he didn't know if it was black or not, and he didn't know how many tons it was; The cement is more than the grain and the weight is understood by yourself, and the glass is even more casual to come to a square ten taels, I don't know how big, isn't there a pattern? Tiles are five taels a piece.

In short, it is just to open your mouth, cement is not sold for silver, it must be food, in short, it is love or not, it doesn't matter whether people and businessmen can stand it or not.

As for how not to engage in glass and cement through ancient society, so many predecessors of the same type walked out of the way he must not learn to learn. The seniors didn't have any information to look at, and there was no system for exchange, and they were all the ways that the generations of traversers had worked hard to lie down. But often practiced, without a system, Wu Shangui has nothing to do, and he dare not deny the hard work of his predecessors.

-------------------------------------

At the end of August, the reaction to the imperial court and the northern capital; Wu Shangui has been confused. No, for the two messengers in front of him who claimed to be the northern capital, Wu Shangui wanted to complain a little, the uncle was here to recruit An. When I saw Wu Shangui, I didn't even introduce myself, so I just said a sentence; The king is willing to be an official.

Shouldn't a few more groups of officers and soldiers be sent to send experience? Why did you come directly to Zhao'an, it's not feudal at all? They are not "ancients" at all, they should not be forced, and the leading generals are greedy for life and afraid of death, and they are incompetent, resulting in heavy losses for officers and soldiers. Wait for the officer/general to gather the troops and horses, and then the murderous will come... Do you send experience?

And the one who claims to be just a guard, isn't your eyes too blatant? This king is still there, don't keep looking at the sisters-in-law and waist of this family, okay.

As for how to directly recruit An, Wu Shangui returned after complaining in his heart; No, I prefer to rebel. Wu Shangui said in his heart, if you pull it directly, I won't talk to you anymore.

And Liu Rong didn't care about such an answer, he became a thief; There's nothing wrong with saying that you like rebellion. Yes continued to ask; What is the king's demand, the official is the chief historian of the Zhenbei Wangfu; If the king has any conditions, the official can bring them to convey. The posture is very bottom, this one is talking about later.

Wu Shangui was shocked, I said that I was going to rebel, shouldn't you be scolded as an official? I didn't look like I was going to make a fuss, I didn't see that he Wu Shangui wanted to make a fool of himself. Then he made a ruthless look and said; The king is very interested in the territory outside the canyon [north].

And Liu Rong continued; I don't know if the weapons in the king's hands are willing to sell, and the North Wangfu of my town is willing to buy them at a high price. As for the plain outside the exit of the canyon in the north, the king of Zhenbei has long lost his right to tax, and the fertile land has almost been occupied by the family, so you can grab it if you have the ability. Maybe you can make a fuss with that piece of land, and I thought about it in a flash.

And Wu Shangui has a feeling of thunder, not to mention this ability to change the topic; Didn't the ancients look down on things like "odd Y skills"? how to react so quickly; Needless to say, if the other party has the heart, he must have touched his own territory.

Wu Shangui knows that he is not a high-IQ talent, and the reason why he has analyzed so much from just a few words is that he has watched too much of Gong Dou or something, spy movies and television and the like! And he is not in his position, he is not in politics, he didn't understand it in the past, but now reality forces him to understand it.

Wu Shangui didn't care if the other party didn't answer his question positively, who knows if he would fall into the pit if he continued to force it. I didn't want to continue to talk lightly, so I waved a little sister-in-law and said a few words. Then the sister-in-law reluctantly untied the small revolver on her waist and handed it to Wu Shangui.

And Wu Shangui didn't care that the two goods were still watching, put the small revolver into the box, put some bullets, and then said; It's not easy for the two of you to come here, and here's a small gift, so please give it to the king of Zhenbei for the two of them. Then the two of them who were stunned by his commotion put the "gift" on the table and ran away. As for the gifts of these two, what do you want to do! I haven't seen you give gifts?

-------------------------------------

Liu Rong looked back at the small building that was gradually moving away, riding on his horse and thinking about how to report this matter to the king of Zhenbei. Whether it was to see an opportunity to exterminate this group of bandits or to recruit them, he didn't do it.

As early as when he received the news, the king of Zhenbei reacted to this matter, first sending 5,000 soldiers and horses, intending to exterminate this group of bandits; But as the defeated soldiers who ran back were interrogated more and more, and then the soldiers and horses were brought back, Liu Rong was secretly sent to deal with the matter. And Liu Daba was also sent together; Then there was the covert march.

As early as three days ago, Liu Rong rushed to the county town near the canyon with more than 2,000 soldiers and horses, and then met with the spies sent in advance.

According to everything the spies said, Liu Rong confirmed what the defeated soldiers said about pop and boom, a weapon with great power and a long range.

Liu Rong's heart was hot at that time, if the king of Zhenbei had such a sharp weapon, the unification of the world was not just around the corner. Then he calmed down again, it was impossible to rob, more than 2,000 horses were defeated in less than a quarter of an hour, and I heard the defeated soldiers say that if it wasn't for the other party's intention to kill, it is estimated that not many people would survive, as for sending a large army, 510,000 is already the limit of the king of the north of this town. Not to mention how many people on the other side didn't hear out, the spies didn't think about going to find out the news at night, but they were inexplicably discovered before they got close.

If you can't rob it, you can only recruit it, but unfortunately the other party is also a master who can't get in the oil and salt

Holding the box in his hand, he may be able to imitate it, Liu Rong thought.
