A coarse cloth is not heavy, but the volume is not small, the Northern Wei Dynasty bartered Zhao Junsheng to make Zhao Junsheng very troubled, even if he used copper coins to purchase goods, he had to drive the carriage over every time.

"If you don't have a coarse cloth, can you use silk? How about a four-foot silk? Zhao Junsheng asked.

The honest man hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Okay!" ”

Zhao Junsheng tilted his head at Pei Jin: "Give him four feet of silk!" ”

Pei Jin took out a four-foot silk silk from the carriage and handed it to the man who sold the piglets, and gave him a handful of copper coins, "These copper coins should be enough to buy your pig cage!" ”

The man took the four-foot silk and a handful of copper coins, and hurriedly thanked Zhao Junsheng: "Thank you, General!" ”

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand and continued to walk forward, Pei Jin beckoned a few soldiers to carry the pig cage containing the piglets onto the carriage, and drove the carriage to follow behind Zhao Junsheng.

Walking on the street for a while, Zhao Junsheng saw a village woman selling chickens, there were more than 20 chicks in a cage, and the newly born chicks were shivering from the cold, all huddled together to keep each other warm.

"This sister-in-law, how do you sell this chicken?"

When the village woman saw Zhao Junsheng wearing armor, wearing a noble cloak, with a long knife hanging from his waist, followed by many soldiers and several carriages, she was a little frightened, and almost bent her waist to the ground: "General, look at it!" ”

"Give this sister-in-law fifty copper plates!" Zhao Junsheng gave Pei Jin an order, raised his legs and continued to walk forward.

Walking along the street all the way, after walking for more than half an hour, Zhao Junsheng and others walked through the streets and alleys of the entire Shanwu County, and bought all the pigs and chickens sold at the stalls on the street and loaded them into carriages.

Pei Jin looked at the more than 100 piglets and thousands of chickens on the carriage, walked up to Zhao Junsheng and said, "Captain, you always pay for the food of the brothers by yourself, even if you have gold and silver, it will be hollowed out sooner or later!" ”

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand: "How can I have so much money to subsidize those bastards?" During these days, didn't Jiao Yunzhe's artisan team make some stoves to sell outside the camp? Unexpectedly, hundreds of them were sold and some money was made! Besides, every time I came to Shanwu County to escort grain and grass, and the generals and officers of the Zhenshu Army asked me to bring some things back for them, and I also made some money, which added up to a lot, and the money I earned was actually earned by the brothers themselves, and Captain Bendu just kept it for them, and now it is also appropriate to use the money they earn to subsidize their food! ”

Pei Jin was deeply admired when he heard this, and bowed his hand: "Du Wei is benevolent and righteous, and his subordinates are respectful!" ”

Zhao Junsheng took Pei Jin and others to prepare to go out of the city and return to Jinling Daying, but along the street he saw a large group of people around the street and discussed, he was curious, and went over to open the crowd and walked to the inner circle to see a bearded and haggard man sitting on the wall, and there was a big ice hockey ball in front of the man, and white gas rose on the big ice hockey ball from time to time.

Someone in the crowd discussed: "Isn't this man a fool, who will buy an ice hockey pucks when he moves out to sell in this winter?" ”

Someone next to him laughed: "It's hard to say, can't there really be a fool who bought this ice hockey?" ”

Zhao Junsheng looked at the man's haggard expression, but it didn't look like he had a mental problem, so he asked: "Isn't there something wrong with your family that needs money urgently?" But you can't just take a hockey ball to set up a stall, this ice and snow, whoever wants to use ice and snow can shovel a lot of it outside! ”

Hearing this, the man looked up at Zhao Junsheng, and got up to make a gesture: "The general's eyes, there is indeed a change in the villain's house, and money is urgently needed!" It's just that the general doesn't know that this ice hockey is not an ordinary ice hockey puck, but my family heirloom! ”

Zhao Junsheng laughed when he heard this, crossed his arms and smiled: "You said that this ice hockey ball is your family heirloom, so what is so strange about it?" If you can show that it's extraordinary, I might consider buying it, and if it's not peculiar, you might as well go home quickly, lest your family look for you! ”

The man thought about it, leaned over and grabbed a stone on the ground and threw it the ice puck, until the ice slag and ice cubes on the ice pucks kept falling, and after a while, the onlookers saw that the ice cubes fell one after another, and the ice balls flashed black metallic lustre.

Only then did everyone understand: it turned out that there was a lump of gold and iron in this ice hockey! But even so, it is just a lump of gold and iron, not gold, and it is not worth much.

The man dropped the stone, sat back in the corner, and said no more.

"There's nothing to look at, it's just a lump of iron balls wrapped in ice, let's go!"

"I thought there was something strange, but I didn't expect it to be like this, hey, it delayed me for a while!"

The crowd of onlookers dispersed.

Zhao Junsheng was also about to turn around and leave, but the part of the ice hockey that was smashed open and revealed a black metallic luster began to emit white gas, and there seemed to be water vapor condensation.

"Huh!" Zhao Junsheng noticed this anomaly, walked to the ice hockey puck, squatted down and looked closely, he found that there was indeed water vapor condensed into water droplets, and the water droplets covered the smashed part and condensed into ice at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It only took half a cup of tea to completely restore the part where the puck was smashed open, and there was no trace of being smashed.

Zhao Junsheng was shocked at this moment, he was sure that the ice hockey was wrapped in a lump of metal, but he didn't know what kind of metal it was, this thing could emit such a strong cold air, it was definitely not an ordinary thing.

"How much do you want to sell this thing for?" Zhao Junsheng looked up at the man and asked.

The man said: "Presumably, the generals also saw that the cold air emitted by this thing was very heavy, and the villain didn't know what it was, only that this thing was handed down from his ancestors." In the winter, of course, you don't need it, if it's in the middle of summer, it must have some effect on relieving the heat, if the general wants, how about giving ten gold? ”

Zhao Junsheng thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "Ten gold is too much, if it can only relieve the heat, I might as well have people collect more ice cubes in the winter and hide them in the cellar, waiting for the next summer to still be used to relieve the heat!" If you are really in a hurry to wait for the first use, I am willing to buy it with hardware, I wonder if you agree? ”

The man thought about it for a while, and finally agreed: "Okay, if you weren't in a hurry to wait for the money, the villain really didn't want to sell this heirloom with hardware!" ”

Zhao Junsheng got up and tilted his head to Lu Xuanbo, who was holding a sword and carrying a blanket on his back: "Old Lu, give him hardware!" ”

Lu Xuanbo took off his coat, took out five gold cakes from it and handed them to the man.

Zhao Junsheng beckoned the two soldiers to carry the ice hockey balls to the carriage with bamboo baskets, said goodbye to the man, and turned to leave.

On horseback, Zhao Junsheng asked Lu Xuanbo: "Old Lu, you have seen a lot in the world, do you know what this big ice hockey is?" ”

Lu Xuanbo shook his head: "The young master really lifted me up, although I have seen a lot of strange things, but I have never seen this thing, I really don't know where it came from!" ”

"Forget it, bring it back first! Even if you don't know if it's useful for anything else, at least it can have some cooling effect in the summer! ”

Two days later, Zhao Junsheng and others returned to the camp in Jinling, and he ordered people to build several rows of pig and chicken coops next to the camp, and from then on the horsemen and coachmen had a new job, that is, harvesting wild vegetables, collecting grain bran and raising hundreds of piglets and more than 1,000 chickens that Zhao Junsheng bought.

After the fishing team set up by Zhao Junsheng moved its position in the past two days, the amount of fishing increased again, and several wagons of fresh fish were transported to the baggage camp every morning, and the generals and quartermasters of the three major battalions also came with grain and meat every day to exchange for fresh fish.

On this day, Jiao Yunzhe, the head of the craftsman team, came to the tooth tent to report to Zhao Junsheng on the progress of the Mo knife construction, and saw an ice hockey ball in the tooth tent, and there was a fire in the tooth tent. Steaming hot, his eyes lit up immediately, he looked excited, and walked to the side of the ice hockey to keep observing.

Seeing him like this, Zhao Junsheng asked out loud: "What, have you ever seen this thing?" ”

Jiao Yunzhe turned around and looked excited: "Captain, there is a book in my house that records a kind of ice ball, which is the same as this thing, this thing is taken hundreds of zhang below the glacier in the extreme north, and it is rumored to coexist with heaven and earth, no one knows how many years they have existed, only that it can automatically emit cold air, and it is the top material for building divine weapons!" ”

"Oh? I bought it with hardware, and you said it could be used to build a magic weapon? But Captain Bendu doesn't know the master of weapon casting, so it's useless to have this thing! ”

Jiao Yunzhe smiled mysteriously: "Du Wei probably doesn't know that there are many talents in our craftsman team, right?" It just so happens that there is such a blacksmith who can turn Du Wei, the piece of arctic cold iron, into a divine soldier! Later, I'll ask him to come over and test your strength and measure your body shape, so that I can tailor it for you! ”

Zhao Junsheng was overjoyed: "Okay, if it can be cast, Captain Bendu will be rewarded!" ”

After more than a month, Zhao Junsheng took the baggage team to send grain and grass materials to Nantian Fort where Hua Mulan was located three times, and Nantian Fort has been calm during this period and has not been attacked by the Rouran cavalry again.

After the turn of the year, the temperature began to warm up, Zhao Junsheng learned from several generals in the Zhenshu army that the emperor changed the Yuan Shenlu under the twelfth edict of the first month, and issued an edict to announce the world, so this year is called the first year of the Shenqi.

The reason for changing the Yuan Shenlu, Zhao Junsheng heard some gossip in the army that the emperor dreamed of a male elk in a sleep, and after waking up, he told Taichang Cui Hao and the national teacher Kou Qianzhi about it.

"Captain, the military master has sent someone!"

"Let him in!"

A soldier walked in and hugged his fists and said, "Captain Zhao, the military lord invites you to go over and discuss the matter!" ”

Zhao Junsheng looked up and saw that it was Wandugui's personal soldiers who came in, so he got up and said, "Okay, let's go!" ”

He followed his soldiers to the tent of the Zhenshu Army, and saw that Wandu Gui was processing the official documents in the army, so he took a few steps forward and hugged his fists and said: "My subordinates meet the military master, I don't know what the military master has to send someone to call his subordinates to come and have any instructions?" ”

Wan Dugui put down his pen and waved his hand to the others in the tent, everyone put down their hands and retreated, and he motioned for Zhao Junsheng to sit down on a horse next to him.

"Junsheng, there's something I think I should tell you! A few days ago, Ben General received news that His Majesty issued an edict to exempt Ba Baye from his crimes, dismissed He Laichao and He Ruoting from their positions, and most of their subordinates were beheaded! ”

Zhao Junsheng's face changed, and he hugged his fists and said, "Military master, why did the emperor do this?" The king of Pingyang can no longer be a director, and Baba Ye has committed a capital crime again, so the emperor doesn't need to be afraid of Babahan's family anymore, right? ”

After thinking about it, Wandu decided to tell Zhao Junsheng the truth, "You only know one, but you don't know the other, if Your Majesty wants to display his ambitions and implement the formulated strategy, he must obtain the support of the ministers of the DPRK and China, this Baba Han did not approve of some of the strategies formulated by His Majesty in the past, and now Baba Han cannot be a director, and the affairs of their family are taken over by his eldest son Baba Pingcheng, in order to save Baba Ye's life, Baba Pingcheng, the elder brother, expressed his allegiance to His Majesty on behalf of the Baba family, and changed the camp to fully support His Majesty, so ······"
