Worried that Xu Feng would make a mistake in his affairs, Shi Bin personally went to inspect the places where the Yuan people who decided to stay lived on the fourth day. Among them, there are Yuan people who disguise themselves as Song people, and there are real Song people. A piece of true and false, there is really no difference at a glance from a distance, unless you get close to talk to it, you can know who is the Song people and who is the Yuan people.

Shi Bin was very satisfied with this situation, because he did not think that the Yuan nobles would lower their identities to verify the true identities of these sloppy refugees. Even ordinary officials have to look at it from afar and deal with it twice.

"Xu Feng, you did a very good job." Shi Bin said with a smile, "But it's best to arrange these disguised Yuan people farther away, if you can't do it, then arrange our Song people on the periphery as much as possible, so that the nobles of the Yuan people can't find them if they want to." ”

"Yes, my lord. Someone will be sent to do it. Xu Feng replied immediately. At the same time, he waved his hand to find a person and ordered him to take someone to carry out Shi Bin's order.

Then Shi Bin went to look at the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled, but found that although they were all old, weak and sick, they were all red-faced. This situation surprised Shi Bin a little, so he asked, "Xu Feng, why are they so happy?" ”

"Lord Wang, there are two reasons why they are so happy. One is because they have cattle and sheep again, and they have enough food. The other is because although the people they care about live in the Great Song Dynasty, they are actually not far from them, and the key is that those people can still live well. In this way, they will naturally be happier. ”

"There will definitely be some of these people who have said something, but there doesn't seem to be a good way to stop them." Shi Bin was a little worried.

"Lord Wang, this kind of thing can't be hidden for a long time, so there's no need to worry about it, as long as you don't show your stuff in front of those Yuan nobles who came over."

understood that this kind of thing was indeed as Xu Feng said, and it was impossible to cover it up for a long time, at most it was just to fool those powerful people, so Shi Bin stopped worrying about it after just giving him a little advice.

Sure enough, as Batu said, just after arriving in March of the tenth year of Xianchun (1274), a group of Yuan nobles came to Jizhou and asked to see Shi Bin. Seeing that Shi Bin is already familiar with this kind of thing, not to mention that he has already been fully prepared? Therefore, a few grassland men with five big and three rough were standing in front of Shi Bin, and he didn't think it was a big deal. One of the guys who likes to have angry eyebrows is a short-tempered and hairless monkey in Shi Bin's eyes.

Of course, these people are nobles after all, even if Shi Bin doesn't look up to them very much in his heart, but he still has to do superficial work. For example: drink a cup of West Lake Longjing, eat a good meal, and give some 'small gifts' that they still like. As the saying goes, 'eating people's mouths are short, taking people's hands short'. After Shi Bin did this, those few Yuan people and nobles felt that they had fallen into the trap, and they didn't know how to say many words that they had thought about before they came.

Seeing at a glance that his method was effective, Shi Bin certainly had to make good use of this opportunity. "A few Yuan friends, the widow and your Emperor Dayuan are righteous brothers, this time you suffered a heavy snowstorm in the north, and many herdsmen ran to our Great Song Dynasty to take refuge, which cost us a lot. There are 30,000 stone of grain, 30,000 cattle and sheep, and countless people's biological resources. To be honest, if you don't look at your brothers, you will still be a widow..."

Although they knew that Shi Bin must have exaggerated the amount, they also knew that the cost of disaster relief was definitely not small, so several nobles just nodded their heads in gratitude and did not raise any doubts.

The 'hairless monkey' suddenly spoke: "His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Weichen Agula wants to go and see my Dayuan's people, and then discuss the matter of reward with the prince. ”

"Well, okay. Xu Feng, take a few adults of Agoura to see their people. Shi Bin smiled.

Soon the Agoura saw their people, but they were not very happy, for they were all old, weak, sick and crippled, and were not wealth at all but a burden. At this point they regretted it, regretted coming to see these herders.

When he was regretting it, Xu Feng said, "Ladies and gentlemen, how is it?" There are still 30,000 people here, and my lord has given them 5,000 breeding cattle and sheep, and when these cattle and sheep give birth to cubs, it should be enough for them to live. In the meantime, I am afraid that you will have to bear their food, clothing, and shelter. ”

Agoura obviously didn't believe this, and asked, "Lord Xu Feng, are all those who escaped here?" ”

"Yes, it's all here." Xu Feng said very 'sincerely'.

"Are they all such old, weak, sick and disabled?" Agoura asked bitterly.

"It's them."

"Impossible! Our tribes have lost nearly 300,000 people, and there are at least 100,000 young and strong people in the middle, even if the losses are heavy, it is impossible to have only 30,000 old, weak, sick and disabled left! Agoura yelled angrily.

"Lord Agoura, please pay attention to humility, this is the Great Song, not the Great Yuan. I am speaking to you on behalf of the King of Chu. Xu Feng said calmly.

Being reminded like this, Agoura had no choice but to swallow this breath and ask Xu Feng to take them to see Shi Bin again.

Seeing a few bitter gourd faces, Shi Bin smiled secretly in his heart, but his face was still very normal, and he asked very 'concerned': "A few adults, what's wrong with you, why are you sad?" Why are you not happy to see your people? Don't you blame me for not giving them a good meal? ”

Asked like this, of course, several Yuan nobles said again and again that Shi Bin had given a very good relief, and they were grateful. It's just that after the polite words were spoken, Agoura said on behalf of everyone: "We are grateful for the help of the prince for helping us to help the victims, but there is one thing that I have some doubts, and I ask the prince to help solve it." ”

"Speak, this king listens."

"Lord Wang, our tribes have lost a total of nearly 300,000 people this time, of which 100,000 we can be sure that they are dead, but there are still more than 100,000 who should not be dead, because they are coming to the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun. Although it is not as rich as the south of the Great Song River, it should not be a problem to feed more than 100,000 people. However, just now, Master Xu took us to see only more than 30,000 old, weak, sick and disabled, and at least 100,000 of those 300,000 were young and strong. ”

"Agoura, what do you mean?" Shi Bin's face suddenly turned like black iron, and he asked coldly, "Do you suspect that the widow slaughtered your Yuan people?" ”

"No, no, no, the King of Chu misunderstood. The prince and my Emperor Dayuan are sworn brothers, how can they slaughter the people of my Dayuan? ”

"And what do you mean by that? Agoura, you'd better make it clear to me, how can you talk nonsense like this again, and blame the king for not being emotional! Chop off your head and weigh it, whether there are six and a half pounds! Shi Bin said viciously.

"Lord Wang, I mean to ask Lord Wang to help us find those people of Dayuan who have been scattered all over the country and return them to us. If the prince helps us a lot, we will be rewarded. Agoura swore by it.

Although I hate the evil look on this Agoura's face, I also admire his shrewdness and speaking art, but Shi Bin is not so easy to deal with. After Agoura finished speaking, Shi Bin also complained of bitterness.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you hand-shaking shopkeepers who sit and count money don't know the hardships of this king, and they are official documents all day long, how can you have the energy to help you find someone? How much more will this king find those who are young and strong, who have hands and feet? It's really powerless! ”

Who is Shi Bin? Who would dare to disobey his words? As long as he gives the order, even a grasshopper won't want to escape! Therefore, none of the nobles in the house believed Shi Bin's nonsense.

A few people only thought that Shi Bin did not see their 'sincerity' and shirked it, so after some discussion, they said that as long as Shi Bin helped them find a young man, they would give back two Mongolian horses. To be honest, this price is quite tempting to Shi Bin. Although Mongolian horses are not the best horses, they are adaptable, easy to raise, and a good military horse after domestication.

Xu Feng, who discovered this situation, suddenly spoke: "Lord Wang, my lords, do you still need tea?" ”

Hearing Xu Feng's words, Shi Bin immediately sobered up and said with a smile: "Okay, Xu Feng, you go and get two pots of good tea, and I will continue to talk with you later." ”

Now Shi Bin's plan is to never hand over a Yuan Ren Qingzhuang. Agulaken offered two Mongolian horses for the price of one Yuan person young and strong, and the actual value is probably that five Mongolian horses are not as strong as one Yuan people.

However, it can't seem so unreasonable, so Shi Bin said again: "To be honest, the king is very impressed by the condition you offered, Agoura, but he doesn't know what to do." It's a bit unattainable to work for the sake of two horses. ”

"Lord Wang, it's better to think about it first, and we'll talk about it later, how about it?" Agoura suggested.

Shi Bin was eager to do so, and immediately agreed. As soon as a few Yuan nobles left, Shi Bin immediately said: "Xu Feng, it seems that their population has decreased sharply, and the strength of the tribe has been greatly hit, and they are not far from being swallowed by others. ”

"Lord Wang, this is definitely the case. I don't know what you're going to do? Do you fool them and not give them back, or do you exchange some of them for Mongolian horses, or whatever? ”

"Aren't you afraid that the widow will return all the young and strong people for these Mongolian horses?" Shi Bin said with a smile.

"The prince has never been far-sighted, he shouldn't be so short-sighted, hehe." Xu Feng said with a smile, "What's more, with these good herdsmen, they are afraid that there will be no high-quality military horses?" The prince must know which is more important. It's just that the balance may have to be carefully considered. ”

So Shi Bin's thinking began, and it didn't take long for Shi Bin to say: "Xu Feng, the widow remembers that we have hidden nearly 100,000 yuan, right?" ”

"Yes, it's 100,000 yuan. Among them, 50,000 are young and strong, and 50,000 are their relatives and friends. ”

"I want to give back 20,000 to Agoura, 10,000 young and 10,000 young relatives and friends. But I want 40,000 Mongolian horses. What do you think? ”

"20,000 yuan? Lord, isn't this a bit much? Ten thousand may be better, fifteen thousand at most. After all, professional cavalry is not easy to cultivate. Xu Feng said with a frown.

Hearing the words 'professional cavalry', Shi Bin immediately realized that he had just made a big mistake, and immediately said: "Xu Feng, you are right, such a professional cavalry is too difficult to cultivate, and it is difficult for my Great Song Dynasty to cultivate. It seems that you can't be so young and strong, and you can't lose big because of the small. Then there are three to four thousand young people, and one young man has three Mongolian horses. For the more than 30,000 old, weak, sick and disabled, I also want 5,000 Mongolian horses. ”

In the blink of an eye, Shi Bin became a sophisticated businessman, which made Xu Feng very happy and surprised, and at the same time relieved.

Then Shi Bin met with Agora again, and the conditions were: one Yuan man was young and strong and had three Mongolian horses, and more than 30,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people also had 5,000 Mongolian horses as rewards.

In the eyes of several people, this condition is simply forcible seizure, but there is no other way but to pinch their noses and admit it. After all, one more person has more power. Even if the old, weak, sick and disabled can't fight, they can do logistics and graze.

In order to make those powerful people more comfortable, Shi Bin generously said: You can bring back the more than 30,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people first, and then settle the bill when the first batch of 100 young people are sent back. It's just that he also said that this kind of help to find Yuanren Qingzhuang will only last for three months, and he will no longer help after three months.

Three months has been very happy, because even if Shi Bin doesn't agree to send one person back, the Agoura and the others can only stare dryly. Don't think about using force in front of this evil god, whoever dares to use it will kill himself.

So after hearing Shi Bin's words, several people pretended to be very happy, squeezing out a smile to express their gratitude, and Shi Bin was also very 'sincere' to express his condolences, and the two sides were 'harmonious'.
