Chapter 0054: Eternal Problem

There is a fief, and there is a status.

But this is not what Qin Zichuan wants.

He asked for the head of Xiang Shang of Jieli Khan.

Blood debt must be paid with blood!

"Your Majesty, I don't know how much money the household is going to give us? How many soldiers and horses do the Ministry of War give us? ”

Qin Zichuan asked His Majesty Li Er.

Although the surviving people of Youzhou were placed in Chang'an, this is not their home after all.

Although the Turkic armies retreated, who knows when they will return?

Now the frontier is his fiefdom, and he wants to rebuild the frontier.

All this is inseparable from money!

"Your Majesty, now that the treasury is empty, there is really no way to come up with money."

Tobe Shangshu said with a sad brow.

"In the first battle of Weishui, more than half of my Tang Dynasty soldiers were killed and wounded, and I really can't draw extra soldiers to the king of the Northern Tang Dynasty."

Li Jing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, also complained on the side.

As their words fell, a feeling of being deceived instantly spread in Qin Zichuan's heart.

You say give me money, give me soldiers and horses, feelings are empty promises!

"Your Majesty, the people of Youzhou are placed in Chang'an, how can they survive without money? My fiefdom has no soldiers and horses, so how can the country be guarded? ”

Qin Zichuan held back the anger in his heart and asked His Majesty Li Er.

"It's not that I don't want to give it to you, it's just that the treasury is empty. If nothing else, let's just talk about the problem of the horse's hooves, and I have to spend a lot of money every year. ”

His Majesty Li Er said with a headache.

"I can fix this."

Qin Zichuan said disdainfully.

Worn horseshoe?

Is this a problem?

"Can you really fix it?"

His Majesty Li Er's eyes suddenly lit up, and he stared at Qin Zichuan and asked.

The problem of horse hooves wear and tear has always been the key to restricting the Tang cavalry.

Not only are tens of thousands of horses lost every year, but military spending has increased greatly.

However, Qin Zichuan actually said that he could solve the problem of horse hoof wear, and the faces of the surrounding ministers were full of disbelief.

Although Qin Zichuan tried his best to turn the tide in the frontier, this solution to the problem of horse hoof wear and tear cannot be solved by fighting and killing.

It's a brain.

Looking at the entire Tang Dynasty, countless young talents and court ministers can't solve it, can Qin Zichuan solve it?

Facing everyone's questioning gaze, Qin Zichuan secretly cursed in his heart, "Turtle." ”

But he didn't immediately say how to solve the problem.

What is the difference between not pretending to be B and salted fish?

He not only has to pretend to be B, but also slaughters His Majesty Li Er.

gave Lao Tzu a fiefdom and a name, but he didn't want to pay a penny, it really hit his grandmother's house.

"Your Majesty, I wonder how much money the household department is willing to pay to solve the problem of horse hoof wear?"

Qin Zichuan asked unhurriedly on the side.

Hubu Shangshu was very tough, and still said that he had no money.

It's not that he picks it, Datang really has no money at this time.

"The treasury is really empty, I paid out of my own pocket, 10,000 yuan."

His Majesty Li Er gritted his teeth and said bitterly.

10,000 guan is a drop in the bucket compared to the military spending on the worn horse's hooves.

Although Li Jing, the secretary of the Ministry of War, has a long face, he also knows that the treasury is really empty.

"Fifty thousand."

Qin Zichuan despised His Majesty Li Er fiercely in his heart, and said without hesitation.

"No, it's too much, I really can't come up with that much money."

His Majesty Li Er immediately shook his head and said.

"Thirty thousand, no less."

Qin Zichuan was determined.

"King of the Northern Tang Dynasty, can you solve the problem of horse hoof wear? Otherwise, you are guilty of deception. ”

His Majesty Li Er pulled his face and asked very unpleasantly.

"The problem of horse hoof wear is a piece of cake for me. As long as His Majesty's money is in place, any problem can be solved. ”

"Your Majesty, there are still tens of thousands of people who are homeless in Chang'an. The fief of the minister is at the fingertips of the Turkic iron horseman, and the minister really needs money! ”

Qin Zichuan immediately played the emotional card and complained to His Majesty Li Er.

"Okay, 30,000! But you have to give me a satisfactory answer. ”

As soon as the matter of the fief was mentioned, His Majesty Li Er was embarrassed.

As the king of a country, he actually rewarded the white armor general with a desolate land, not a single soldier, not a single question.

Wouldn't it make the world laugh when it was spread out?

So he couldn't wait to block Qin Zichuan's mouth.

Compared with the problem of horse hoof wear, let alone 30,000 guan, if it can really be solved, 300,000 guan is worth it!

"The minister is willing to make a military order, if the problem of horse hoof wear and tear cannot be solved, His Majesty can dispose of it at will."

Qin Zichuan said confidently.

"Don't talk nonsense."

Qin Qiong hurriedly scolded on the side.

Military orders are no child's play.

If Qin Zichuan really can't solve it, wouldn't he lose his life?

"Your Majesty and the ministers don't seem to believe me! How about we make a bet? ”

Qin Zichuan gave Qin Qiong a reassuring look and said to the people around him.

"How to bet?"

Eldest Sun Wuji was the first to ask.

He would rather believe that Qin Zichuan killed Jieli Khan than that he could solve the problem of horse hoof wear.

Killing requires hands-on.

This solves the eternal problem, and you need to rely on your brain!

Since ancient times, military generals have been reckless, and the problem of using their brains still needs to be done by Wenchen!

Otherwise, what is the use of asking them to be civilians?

"If I can solve the problem of the wear and tear of the horse's hooves, Your Majesty will give me 30,000 yuan, and you will give me 10,000 yuan. If I can't solve it, I'll give you double, and give Your Majesty my head! ”

Qin Zichuan said proudly.

"If the King of the Northern Tang Dynasty can really solve the problem of horse hoof wear, why not send you 10,000 yuan?"

Eldest Sun Wuji said without hesitation.

"Although Fang is not a rich man, he can still get 10,000 yuan."

Fang Xuanling said with a smile.

"Du is also willing to take a look."

Du Ruhui echoed on the side.

"How can this kind of good thing be without my demon king of the mixed world, I bet on the king of the Northern Tang Dynasty to win!"

Cheng Yanjin said and reached out to hug Qin Zichuan's shoulder.

Qin Zichuan suddenly felt the urge to beat people.

Lao Tzu, the king of the Northern Tang Dynasty, is penniless, and you are dignified Lu Guogong and I are robbing money.

What a bandit!

"I bet on the king of the Northern Tang Dynasty to lose."

The big black-faced lieutenant Chi Gong's gong-like voice sounded on the side.

The rest of the ministers all bet on Qin Zichuan to lose.

And the honest and honest Qin Qiong refused to gamble.

Qin Zichuan immediately blossomed when he saw it.

The treasury of the Tang Dynasty is empty, but this group of court ministers have money!

Since the court does not give money, then take a fortune from the ministers.

The little abacus in Qin Zichuan's heart is not an ordinary 6.

"Why do ministers wear shoes when they go out?"

Qin Zichuan forcibly held back the excitement in his heart and asked in a deep voice.

"Of course you have to wear shoes when you go out, otherwise your feet won't wear out?"

Yu Chigong pulled his big black face and asked very unpleasantly.

If Qin Zichuan hadn't become famous in the Frontier, it is estimated that he would have picked up Qin Zichuan and beaten him.

What does such a mentally retarded problem have to do with the age-old problem of hoof wear?
