Hexi, at a large bazaar organized by the Republican Army, this bazaar brought people from several nearby tribes. In fact, the tribes have become relatively loose. Because many people have their own pastures, the areas where they live are more dispersed. But they may have more sheep and cattle. Because the cattle and sheep captured by the Republican Army were sold to them on the spot, and these herders provided food, horses, and what they could.

But relatively speaking, they still need more things, for the simple reason that they don't produce them themselves.

"Five, five tickets. Otherwise, not sold. A Hun man shook his head with a sheepskin and said. The merchant smiled helplessly, and had to reach such a reasonable price.

Tru saw such a scene and was very satisfied. Because one sheepskin is worth such a price, if it were the previous one, they would have had to spend five sheepskins, and they might not have been able to return the five tickets. And five tickets, you can buy a lot of things, a bag of salt, an iron pot, these things, in the opinion of the Huns, they need fifty sheepskins to get.

The price is relatively fair, and it is a lot. However, the price of a large-scale acquisition is not such a price. It will cost a lot of money, and the price will be more favorable. But in general, the herdsmen got more benefits, and the goods were complete and the quantity was sufficient, which was the best bazaar that the Hun herdsmen felt. Some of the Huns sang and danced in the bazaar, and they used this way to show that the bazaar was very satisfying to their needs.

In fact, at first the Huns were very worried that they would be deceived again, and usually, they would trust some merchants who were constantly on the go, or Hu merchants. The reason is that they have already gained the trust of the Xiongnu herdsmen, but the price they need to pay is too great. As for the bazaar, they just came to see it with the attitude of giving it a try.

The Xiongnu herdsmen have long been in a state of doing business at a loss, and it is precisely because they are too sincere that they never make a price, and in such a situation, their situation becomes extremely different and unfavorable. Because they have been deceived many times by the Han merchants in the south. This time, they were forced to come to the market.

But this transaction, their situation has become very good, the main thing is that they recognize a new thing, paper money, the republican dollar. Before the start of the market, Tru specially gathered the main leaders of various tribes together, explained in detail the role of the republican yuan, and let them trade boldly, and the standard of trading is the republican yuan, which is an important measure to prevent unscrupulous merchants from disrupting the market market. Moreover, all market stalls must be clearly marked with prices and sold according to the actual price marked, otherwise, they will be found out by the military police and cleared at the same time, so that the whole market transaction will become extremely fair, which is something they never thought of.

That's where the fairness of the first place became. Sometimes, they may not be able to get an iron pot for fifty sheepskins, but now, they actually get five republican dollars for the price of five sheepskins, and they go to the place where the iron pot is sold, and they can buy the iron pot they want the most for only two republican yuan, and many herdsmen feel too surprised. Because the prices are very fair. They bought iron pots with all their money in one go. Tru persuaded him several times, but it didn't have a very good effect, and the herdsmen had too much time to be deceived. They never dared to believe that the price of iron pots could be so cheap.

For the first time, the herders believed in this magical currency in their hands. Some people knelt down and bowed down. The merchants, however, were not at all surprised by this, because the herdsmen could not have imagined the speed and scale of the production of iron pots in the Republican-controlled areas.

Of course. Herders have other products that attract their attention. For example, the iron wheel. Stirrup. Horseshoe, these things are the most needed things for herdsmen, and many daily necessities they have never seen before, such as simple telescopes and mirrors. These things are far beyond the imagination of the herdsmen, who have no idea of such things. What kind of miraculous methods did those Han people use to do this? Even if they were to explain it, it would be difficult for them to believe such a situation.

In short, among the herdsmen, the republican yuan, the republican banknotes have been accepted. They never imagined that such a paper money would make them so smooth, and the paper money would be exchanged in large quantities. The bazaar still continues, and the trade between herdsmen and Han Chinese, most of them are wool, leather, cattle, sheep, and horses are still regarded as military supplies, and only a small part is traded, but they are not good horses, they can only be used to pull carriages, and the turnover is not too large, after all, the current horses are mainly used for military purposes.

Even so, the bazaar was very successful, because it met the needs of many people to the greatest extent. And make their situation the best advantageous. This has served the purpose of the Republican Army.

Bazaars, to a large extent, play a role in stability. If there were no bazaars, they would not have been able to stabilize in time, and the next step would be for the republican army to relocate the commercial banks, because the herders had accepted such a situation, and in such a situation, it would be much more beneficial for them to achieve such a state.

Li Jiazhuang, War Department.

"The merchants of Hedong are very active, and they are constantly involved in this situation, so that their situation will become extremely favorable, and in this situation, their development will be even greater, and such a situation is the most favorable situation for them." Jia Xu said.

"Hmm. In this way, it can be regarded as achieving our goal, and only by achieving such a goal can our situation be further developed, which is the most favorable situation for us. Shang Wu said.

In addition, Ma Heng also mentioned in the telegram that he hoped to use some of the beef and mutton they had just collected to make canned food and improve the situation of the front-line soldiers, after all, our food supplies are really poor. If you eat it for a long time, it is easy to catch fire. Although drugs continue to be developed, the taste of food is a long-standing problem. Jia Xu said.

"Well, I think we should do that, our soldiers should not only be fed, but also well-fed, and what are we attacking the west of the river, and the edge of the loop? It's not for a bite to eat, since we have such conditions, we must actively improve such a situation, otherwise, we wouldn't have done such a thing at all. Shang Wu agreed. Jia Xu nodded in agreement. If this kind of food works well, they will also promote it to the private market, so that people can store a lot of food, and in the event of a famine, there is no need to be afraid.

Increasing crop yields per mu is also a method, but this method requires long-term scientific experiments, and only in this way can their food rise to a better state, which may be the only way they can solve the food crisis at present, and such a solution is practical. Because according to their calculations, the IRA has already done such experiments. They keep the pressed biscuits they make in a very harsh environment. If such an environment can be withheld, the shelf life of food will be greatly improved, and the food crisis can be dealt with.

Of course. It's even better with meat. At the very least, they have a lot of ability to deal with such a situation. This is their most advantageous position.

"Is there any movement in terms of military operations?" Shang Wu asked Jia Xu.

"The cavalry regiment's attack is very smooth, fortunately they have troops to follow behind, and for the time being, we can ensure that we have a supply line to maintain, but the problem is more difficult, because of the problem of a large number of prisoners of war, if these prisoners of war can not be dealt with thoroughly and properly, it will form a great disadvantage for us, and this situation is still very troublesome for us." Jia Xu said worriedly.

"It's a big problem, it's a big problem, these people, most of them are prisoners of war, and we don't have a lot of pasture to give them, but if they are released, it will cause a lot of trouble. This will allow the other party to form combat effectiveness to a greater extent. After all, they can provide enough troops, and that's the last thing we want to see. Shang Wu said.

"It seems that on this issue, I think we should talk to the other party about it, maybe this problem will be solved. Most things will be much more favorable. Jia Xu said.

"Hopefully, in this way, our affairs will be properly handled, after all, it will help us a lot. We can't settle them, naturally, we can hand them over, it's a burden and a nuisance. Shang Wu said.

Shangwu doesn't have much pasture to allocate for the time being, at most he gives them some freedom, if they can get the Hetao area, it is estimated that this problem will be solved, but unfortunately, the Hetao area is outside their supply line, they are at most touching it, and then retreating. Otherwise, they really can't do anything like that. The balance of offensive supplies has long been reached the limit, and negotiation is their biggest hole card.
