Chapter 113: Continuing to Trap (Debt Repayment 9/394)

My conscience, dogs don't eat!

After choking Zhu Zhanji back with a sentence, Yang Shaofeng continued: "By the way, just now Timur revealed a news on the wine table, and they plan to wait for the weather to warm up, and then send people to continue north across the grassland to see what else is over there." ”

Zhu Zhanji was stunned and said, "Go north again?" Now that their ties with the border cities are getting tighter and tighter, I'm afraid that if Arutai wants to move north, those herdsmen won't agree, right? ”

Yang Shaofeng sighed and said: "The so-called bustle of the world is all for profit, and the world is bustling, all for profit." Where can you go to catch a laborer and come back, you can exchange it for five taels of silver, and you won't go if you change it? ”

Patting his head, Yang Shaofeng couldn't help but mock: "Of course you don't have to go, His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun, who has more than five taels of silver for a casual meal, how can he run to arrest people for five taels of silver."

However, if you allow the people to catch a laborer and give five taels of silver, then there must be people among the people, do you believe it or not? ”

Seeing that Zhu Zhanji was still a little suspicious, Yang Shaofeng explained: "Twenty yuan can buy a big fat chicken, you know this, right?" One tael of silver is a thousand dollars, and you can buy fifty of them, and five taels of them can buy two hundred and fifty of them, and you can eat one a day, which is almost enough to eat for a year.

It's just the price of just a laborer, what if you catch a few more? If you act together with your own clan and neighbors, you will catch more laborers, and this silver will be more, if one person can catch a few laborers, you can eat fat chicken every day for a year!

Think about those bachelors who can't marry their daughters-in-law, and then think about those who can't survive, if they are given war horses and swords, they still care about life and death? ”

Zhu Zhanji sighed and said: "You think it's good, but you forgot one thing, ordinary people don't have many opportunities to ride a bull, let alone ride a war horse to fight?" You're not giving them a chance to earn money, you're sending them to their deaths! ”

Yang Shaofeng spread his hands and said, "It's just a metaphor, what are you doing so seriously?" Anyway, I just want to tell you that the Tatars sent a small force of men north, probably to see if there were any people further north, and then to catch the laborers. ”

Zhu Zhanji said: "Then do you want to give them some of the books in Ouchi?" According to the book, under the rule of Meng Yuan, there were still many small countries in the far north, let them catch them? ”

Yang Shaofeng said: "Let them find it themselves." How many years have it been since Meng Yuan, who knows if those barbarians have moved away, and what the situation is over there. So it's better to let them explore the way, let's find a way to send someone to sneak in, and then get the latest map.

In addition, this also has an idea, I plan to test and test a few of them tomorrow, if it can be done, if Your Majesty wants to use troops against Mobei in the future, it is estimated that it will become more convenient. ”

Zhu Zhanji suddenly asked curiously: "What do you think?" ”

Yang Shaofeng put on a smiling appearance of the Buddha, and said unfathomably: "The Buddha said, don't say." ”

Zhu Zhanji snorted and said, "Then you continue to pretend to be a ghost." What about Halloween, though? We should be able to rush back in time, but what about this gift? ”

Yang Shaofeng suddenly scratched his head and said, "You prepare for me first, my head hurts now." ”

Lin Tang, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke: "I still have a few good old ginseng sticks at home, when I go back, let Lin Yu bring you a five-hundred-year-old one, and send another eight-hundred-year-old one next time." At the very least, you won't have a headache for three years. ”

Yang Shaofeng winked at Lin Tang and said, "I'll think about it slowly, this old ginseng belongs to my father-in-law, and it's not good for you to take it out." ”

What should I do if my fiancΓ©e loses her family? Waiting online, it's urgent......

But after thinking about it, Yang Shaofeng felt that he was also quite a loser, and the money he earned in the border city was basically smashed into the construction of the city and the construction of roads.

However, the effect of smashing blood to repair the cement and gravel road is indeed obvious, at least the snow on the road is easy to clean, unlike the snow on the dirt road once it melts away, it is all kinds of mud, even if you want to clean it up.

After the roads were cleared, all kinds of grain, salt and iron and other materials could be transported from the Great Wall in a steady stream.

Then Yang Shaofeng found Timur and others to drink.

After three rounds of drinking, Yang Shaofeng said with a smile: "Brother Lao, what do you say about the road through Wanquan Right Guard in this city?" ”

Timur's face was full of envy, and he said, "God!" In the winter, a few snows cleared up quickly, and I thought you were prepared, so it was cleared up faster.

Now that this snow came so suddenly, and it was still cleared so quickly, it was not easy. The road is indeed excellent. ”

Yang Shaofeng hummed and said: "So, this time my brother has a way to make a fortune, and I plan to take my brothers to do it together, and I will make some money for my family when I go back."

You discuss with your master, and after you go back, you will also discuss with the princes of your family, and everyone will build a city in their own tribe when they go back, and then I will build a cement road to go over, and then it will be much more convenient to transport materials or come and go? ”

After pacing a few steps after getting up, Yang Shaofeng stretched out his hand and gestured: "You see, these roads are connected to each other, or not in series, they all lead to the border city alone, so is it convenient for everyone to travel in the future?" If the young people of the clan are willing to come to the border city to work, wouldn't it be better if we could get some carriages and let them come in the morning and return in the evening?

What's more, when the road is repaired, I can organize a group of merchants and let them go to you with the needles and threads needed on the grassland, and I will collect a wave of taxes on this side of the road, and you will collect another wave on your side, as long as we discuss it in advance and leave room for those merchants to make money, they will not object. ”

Yang Shaofeng's words fell, but Timur and the others hesitated.

Yes, now that Daming has allowed the border market, even the control of salt and iron has been relaxed, everyone's life is much better, and these top bigwigs have also enjoyed a better life, and the relationship with the border city is also as good as honey blending oil.

But what if one day Da Ming turns his face? Or, what if one day, the people of their respective tribes plan to start a war with the Ming Dynasty?

When the time comes, this road will not only bring convenience, but also very likely to be the army of the Ming Kingdom, and everyone likes the silver of the white flowers of death, but they also have to have a life to spend it!

After pondering for a long time, Timur laughed and said: "I can't give Brother Yang a clear answer to this matter for the time being, why don't I wait until I go back to understand the Taishi and discuss it?" ”

Seeing that Antai and the others also nodded in agreement with Timur's statement, Yang Shaofeng couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, brother, I'm not as bad as you think." ”

After turning around the four of Timur, Yang Shaofeng said with a smile: "If you are worried about what danger this road will bring to the grassland, in fact, you don't have to.

Think about it, even if you build a city or build a road, if you want to go, who can stop you? And this road is not easy to build, but it is very easy to destroy.

Of course, I'm not reluctant to do this, and the brothers went back to discuss and see if they could get it. ”

Timur's heart moved, and he smiled: "If my master agrees to build a city and build roads, then this expenditure?" ”

Yang Shaofeng waved his hand and said with a smile: "You come out of the laborers, the craftsmen and masters come out from my side, the sand and stones are not valuable, you can dig anywhere, so you can dig this thing, and the cement is mine."

In short, after this road is built, there will be one more way for everyone to make money, and life will be better, isn't that reasonable? ”

Siqin pondered for a long time, and said with a smile: "Brother Yang's idea is good, but this grassland is not as good as the Ming Dynasty, and the herdsmen don't have much money at all except for cattle and sheep, so is it difficult for them to exchange cattle and sheep for things?" ”

Yang Shaofeng shook his head and said, "How troublesome is that?" A bag of needles and threads doesn't cost a few pennies, can the herdsmen still be able to collect a few catties of wool to cover the account?

That's why I'm thinking of building another city on each of your pastures, so that the herdsmen can directly drive their cattle and sheep over and sell them for money, so that we can collect a wave of commercial taxes when the herdsmen sell their cattle and sheep.

And don't the herdsmen have money in their hands? When the time comes, whatever they want to buy, they can buy it directly in your city. ”

Timur hesitated and said: "Brother Yang, don't blame me for speaking ugly, this has a border city, and if you build a small city, why do you expand the border city?" Isn't that redundant? ”

Yang Shaofeng shook his head and said, "Naturally, it's very different.

The border city is a huge city, and the border market trade is also for large trade, so will those herdsmen drive one or two sheep to the border city?

But when the city is built on your pasture, it will be very different, and the herdsmen can sell a sheep if they want to, even if it is slaughtered and cut and sold, so the scale of the city on your side is not large, and it is mainly carried out in small and even micro commodity transactions. ”

Timur was even more moved, and after glancing at the three of them, he said to Yang Shaofeng: "I can only say that I will try my best to facilitate this, but I dare not guarantee whether it can be done." ”

Seeing that the three of them nodded in the same way, Yang Shaofeng said with a smile: "I believe that your Taishi and the three princes of the Warat Department can see the benefits here, as for the risks they will worry about, I said just now, if you want to leave, no one can stop you, especially the cavalry, isn't the biggest benefit that comes and goes like the wind?" ”
