Chapter VIII Purchasing Grain and Recruiting Troops

After receiving the assistance of the lonely family, the refugees were settled, and five million taels of silver were needed to fill the treasury, and Yang Ying no longer had to tighten her belts to live like she had no money.

With the capital to operate, Yang Ying began to plan how to make money. In the era when martial artists are respected, if you want to make money, you must grasp the hobbies of this group of people, and martial artists must like martial arts cheats, wine, and then there are beautiful women, and it is easy to make money if you grasp these well.

Martial arts cheats are personal secrets for others, and all family sects and gangs are strictly guarded, as long as they are leaked, a disaster will occur, and large and small grievances come from cheats. According to this situation, Yang Ying plans to build a store specializing in selling cheats, with different degrees and different pricing, and collect the world's cheats and sell them.

For wine, it is better to brew, maybe it can't make any good wine, but spirits are very simple, just ferment the grain, and then distill.

As for the rest, Yang Ying didn't have any ideas.

So he asked Xiao Lizi to find some loyal palace maids who could write and started the journey of copying.

After that, it is necessary to store grain, in troubled times, there must be a large amount of grain, and Yang Ying has no way to buy grain, so he thought of the lonely family, as a gate valve, there must be a way in this regard, and then he brought some guards to Dugu's house.

Seeing You Chuhong again, still hunched over and coughing from time to time, Yang Ying stepped forward and gently helped You Chuhong into the main house, "Grandma, you can rest well when you are sick, you don't need to come out to meet me"

"Hehe, you are the emperor after all, this respect should still be there, let's say, what's the matter with this time" Although she knew that Yang Ying had come to her for something, she didn't have a trace of impatience.

"You can't escape your old eyes at all"

"I want to buy a large amount of grain, if the Great Sui can't sell it, I can sell it in other countries, two or three percent higher than the market price."

"If you buy grain, the Dugu family has business names in Daming and Dasong, I guarantee that I can buy enough grain, is buying grain to prepare for future food? It's good to prepare early."

"It's not just reserve grain," Yang Ying paused, and said, "I plan to make wine."

"I'm afraid I can't make much money from such a high-priced grain brewing"

"I'm going to make spirits." After thinking about it, he said with some uncertainty, "The wine I make should be two or three times stronger than the one on the market." ”

"Oh, Your Majesty, you can still make such a spirit," You Chuhong's eyes lit up.

"I know a recipe, it should work,, hehe, I'm not so sure" Yang Ying concealed something.

At this time, Dugu Feng was wearing a samurai costume and carrying a sword, and rushed in, "It's really hot to death, which of you wants to make wine, I want to taste it first" said while wiping his sweat.

Looking at the pretty woman in front of her, her face was flushed because of her martial arts practice, and she looked charming.

"We haven't started yet, so now we have to prepare"

"I'll help you with what to prepare"

Now that there is free labor, Yang Ying also has a lot less trouble, "I need some craftsmen and winemakers, and I need to get some food"

"Where to brew"

"Let's go to the palace where no one is, it should be safer there" Yang Ying originally planned to be outside the city, but he set up the palace for secrecy.

"I'll go to the palace to find you when I'm ready tomorrow," Dugu Feng said arrogantly.

This is how the matter of wine and grain is finalized.

When I returned to the palace and found Xiao Lizi, I saw that copying martial arts cheats had begun. Just watched these palace maids copy quickly, and thought that the same kind of martial arts should not be too much, and there was still a certain scarcity to sell at a good price, so the palace maids stopped.

Hurry up with a copy of the cheats, I always feel that something is missing, and I can't think of it for a while, so I don't think about it again.

"Xiao Lizi, after the cheats are ready, find a shop in the capital, and see how they are sold first" After speaking, he added: "The place where we buy cheats is called Wuxing!" Go ahead and get ready now."

"By the way, go find Li Jing and Qin Qiong, I have something for him to do"

After a while, Li Jing and Qin Qiong arrived, watching them hook shoulders from a distance, talking and laughing.

"I've seen the emperor"

"I'm relieved to see that the two of you get along well, I have something to do with the two of you now, the refugee problem should be dealt with, I hope you go to the refugee camp to recruit some young soldiers, or I'll go with you"

When they arrived at the camp, these refugees were not crying and noisy as they had just seen them, but they were sitting in a daze, their clothes were disheveled, their faces were covered with dust, and their eyes were empty and lifeless.

Yang Ying looked very uncomfortable, so he asked the guards to gather these refugees in the front square. Many people were indifferent to the soldiers' shouts and urgings, only a few people dragged their steps to Yang Ying, and a young and somewhat clever guy stepped forward and asked respectfully: "This uncle, what do you command?"

Yang Ying looked at him and didn't speak. After waiting for everyone to gather, he said loudly: "I am Yang Guang, Emperor of the Great Sui"

After speaking, I saw that those refugees were a little stunned at first, and they instantly felt that they didn't know what to do, and they looked at each other with some horror, but the young man immediately knelt down: "Long live the emperor, long live, long live", and the others also quickly knelt down and shouted.

Looking at these refugees, Yang Ying said indignantly: "Seeing you like this, I am also very heartbroken, you are my people of the Great Sui, I did not protect you well, it is my fault"

Hearing this, the refugees were a little incredulous, and raised their heads to stare at Yang Ying, "But is all this just my problem, is it just that I failed to protect you?" After a change of breath, he said again: "Do you resist in the face of the enemy, do you just let others slaughter, even if there are more enemies in number?"

"We don't have weapons, we haven't killed anyone," whispered from nowhere.

"It's not an excuse that no one has been killed, it's just a sign of cowardice, only a coward would watch his loved ones being slaughtered and remain indifferent"

"Are you cowards," Yang Ying shouted.

"We are not cowards" Some young people were angered by Yang Ying.

"Again, are you cowards?" "We are not cowards"

"Then should you protect your loved ones" "Yes"

"Well, in order to protect our relatives and protect our land, we must bravely take up arms and fight to the death against the enemy, exchange our lives for the lives of our relatives, and now we must unite to protect our relatives, defend the land, and defend the Great Sui"

"Protect your relatives, defend the land, and defend the Great Sui" was full of momentum in the square for a while, and everyone was enthusiastic.

"Now, I will allocate you wasteland, and there are houses for you that no one lives in, do you have to protect your home and fight for your relatives in the future?"

Li Jing and the guards echoed: "Fight! War! War! ”

Refugees also shouted: "Tremble, tremble"

"Okay, now General Li Jing and General Qin Qiong want to recruit soldiers, and those who are willing to be soldiers will sign up."

Seeing that the young man was going to sign up, he waved at him, and he immediately trotted over.

Yang Ying saw that he was more pleasing to the eye, a little flexible, and clever, so he said: "You will follow me in the future, I will sometimes let you do it, and you will be rewarded if you do it well."

"Thank you, Emperor" The young man hurriedly knelt down and said.

"Get up, what's your name?"

"Back to the emperor, the villagers call me Ergou, I haven't seen my parents since I was a child, I grew up eating dog milk when I was a child, so I call Ergou" After speaking, Ergou's eyes were red.

"Ergou, do you have anything to do in the future?" I almost laughed out loud when I heard the name Ergou, but I held back when I saw his sad appearance.

"I want to be a rich man in the future, so that future generations will not go hungry, and let my parents leave me to see that I can live well without them."

"Anything else?"

"If I have the ability, I will definitely give the orphans a home," Ergou said firmly.

"I didn't expect you to have a lot of ambitions, follow me and work hard, I believe you can achieve it"

I didn't expect that today's recruitment was still very smooth, and more than 9,000 people were recruited.
