Tian Feng's submission made Yuan Xi's mood excited for several days, which made Zhen Mi, Hongxiu, and Hexiang, who slept with him at night, surprised, and sometimes even needed Hexiang and Hongxiu together to barely cope, as for Zhen Mi, although Yuan Xi had this intention to sleep with him in his heart, he never mentioned that Zhen Mi's status in his heart was not Hongxiu, and Hexiang could be compared.

The day after Tian Feng returned to Yuan Xi, he immediately went to the General's Mansion to ask Yuan Shao for his guilt, and after a conversation with the minister, he immediately returned to work in the General's Mansion, and was much more low-key, and did not say those impulsive and ugly words, which made Yuan Shao really happy, not only the official was reinstated, but even gave a lot of rewards, Tian Feng could not go to Youzhou with Yuan Xi, Yuan Shao would not allow it, Yuan Xi was not willing, Youzhou was only his starting point, Sizhou was the foundation, and there must be a minister of his important in this Yecheng.

It seemed that they were gradually calming down, time passed slowly, and unconsciously, the army of the Iron Guard Battalion had expanded to 10,000 people, which was very fast, exceeding the number he originally requested, and at the same time, the recruitment of troops also stopped immediately, Yuan Xi is no longer only one Iron Guard Battalion and one unit, but also re-established the Blood Tiger Battalion and the Nutao Battalion, which were led by Tie Xianhu and Yuan Ping respectively, the Blood Tiger Battalion is actually the first battalion with a different name, and the Nutao Battalion is completely cavalry, and it is the heavy armored cavalry specially ordered by Yuan Xi, Things are getting a little too busy, especially Yuan Ping is also the military secretary, and Nu Tao, as well as logistics, one person is in charge of three positions, and there is no time to rest at all, Yuan Xi can only let Frustrated Hu temporarily violate the filial piety system, officially put him on the right track, brought him into the big camp, and took over the logistics.

And the number of Zhang Nan's black devils has exceeded 300 people, not only all over Yecheng, but also began to expand outside, an extremely terrifying intelligence network was slowly formed, not only Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan, there are people with black devils in the general's mansion, and even many ministers' mansions, although the status is still very low, unable to contact the core, but this is indeed an excellent start, for example, Yuan Xi still knows for the first time that the antique and serious guy who judges this appearance has a little wife in the flower building outside, but one dare not take it home, This made him snicker for a long time.

The four continents are stable, the civil strife has subsided, the three brothers of Yuan Xi are doing their own things, they have no time to fight, even Tian Feng is not looking for trouble, Yuan Shao's life is extremely comfortable in an instant, and the inertia and desire in his heart are like the water of the Yellow River, which began to expand rapidly, and it was out of control.

First of all, the expansion and rebuilding of the General's Mansion, the General's Mansion was already very large, but Yuan Shao's words, immediately asked to double the land, and immediately millions of dollars were used, and the scale was completely towards the Luoyang Palace of the year, although the trial and Xun Kan tried their best to prevent it, but it was useless at all, the mighty project began immediately, and it was Yuan Shang's person who managed the project, and the ministers in the palace Feng Ji, Yuan Xi knew from the secret spy that Zhang Nan planted in Yuan Shang's mansion that Feng Ji actually withheld one-third of the money privately, In addition to taking a part of himself, all the others were given to Yuan Shang, so that he could recruit soldiers and horses, and win over the scholars and officials in Yecheng, saying that here, there is also a part of Yuan Xi's reason, there is no impermeable wall in the world, Yuan Xi because of the rapid expansion of the army because of going to Youzhou, although it is a matter of course, but Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan are indeed a little red-eyed, after holding the envy in their hearts, they have asked for a conscription order from Yuan Shao, and immediately began to expand, Yuan Shang has the project of expanding the General's Mansion, and Yuan Tan has the name of holding a birthday for Yuan Shao, The two are evenly matched.

In addition to these, the beauties from all over the country are also constantly paying tribute, which can cause a lot of turmoil in the inner house, the angry Liu family has killed several people who don't know the height of the sky, and often raised their dissatisfaction many times in front of Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang, but what can their sons say? can only be comforted, promising that as long as they are there, Liu's status will be absolutely unhindered.

More than a month has passed, and Yuan Shao's birthday is gradually coming, but Yuan Xi really didn't have time to pay attention to this at this time, only to see him holding an account book in his hand, with a look of surprise in his eyes, frustrated, Liu Quan, and Hou San, who managed the account room, all stood aside helplessly.

"More than 10,000 gold, plus the 2,000 gold given by the General's Mansion, as well as the eldest brother and the third brother promised to give me 5,000 gold, there is only so little left" Yuan Xi looked at Hou San, his face was hard to see, there were only 4,500 gold left on the account book, which may still be an unimaginable number for ordinary people, but for him, it is too little, the Iron Guard Battalion, the Angry Waves Battalion, the Blood Tiger Battalion, the Military Division, the Black Devil, and the personnel over there in Gaolan, add up to at least tens of thousands of people, and in many places, it is not just a matter of eating.

Hou San, who was in charge of the money, suddenly said with a bitter face: "Childe, the small one is already very provincial, but some time ago, Steward Liu took away 4,000 gold, and then took another 1,000 gold, and the Tiewei Battalion took 6,000 gold, as well as the communication needs of the son, preparing a birthday gift for the lord, etc., there is really no money."

Yuan Xi's eyes froze, Liu Quan's money was for the black devil, this was what he ordered, Zhang Nan would never use it indiscriminately, his secret spy organization did spend money like running water, although there were only 300 internal personnel, but there were indeed thousands of external personnel, otherwise it would not have developed so fast, let alone the huge results it has today, but what is going on with the Iron Guard Battalion, Frustrated Hu came over this time to ask for money, at least 10,000 gold has been given over there, that is, it is no problem to feed an army of 20,000 or 30,000.

Yuan Xi couldn't help but look at Frustrated Hu, because he was the current chief bookkeeper of the Iron Guard Battalion, managing logistics such as money, grain and grass.

"Xueping, although the Iron Guard Battalion is expanding now, even if it is 10,000 people, it should be completely enough," Yuan Xi asked.

Frustrated Hu smiled bitterly and said: "Childe, if it is an ordinary soldier and horse, there is no problem with this money at all, but the Blood Tiger Battalion formed by General Tie and the Angry Wave Battalion of the Fifth Prince are not ordinary soldiers, they are treated very well, they have a meal of meat every day, and they have to kill more than a hundred heads a day, of course, this is nothing, the more important thing is the purchase of equipment, crossbows, heavy armor, bows and arrows, war horses, and weapons made of fine iron, they are simply huge gold-swallowing beasts, dissatisfied with Childe, and now I only have more than a thousand gold there, It's not that Lord Tian is using his position to help secretly, but the hooves really can't hold on."

Yuan Xi frowned, this was his negligence, it is true that in the past month, the three battalions of Iron Guard, Nu Tao, and Blood Tiger have indeed purchased a lot of equipment, but this is necessary, otherwise why would he divide two battalions, although Yuan Shao gave them a conscription order, he did not promise to train them all into elite soldiers, but only issued rations for the number of people, as for the rest, he has to figure out his own way, after all, Yuan Shao himself still has hundreds of thousands of troops to raise.

"Childe, don't worry too much, it was originally too much equipment consumption, but now it has gradually stabilized, the equipment of the second battalion of Nu Tao and Blood Tiger is enough, what they need now is hard training, honing actual combat, as long as there are two thousand gold, they can support it for half a year, and it can be completely stable until Childe arrives in Youzhou" This is, Frustrated Hu comforted softly,

Yuan Xi nodded, looked at Hou Sandao, and said, "Immediately transfer two thousand gold."

"No!" After Hou San just answered, Liu Quan suddenly stood up and said helplessly: "Son, I still need two thousand here."

"What?" Yuan Xi's pupils shrank.

"Yes, news came yesterday that it has expanded to Wei County" Liu Quan said with a wry smile, he was the only one other than Yuan Xi who knew about the existence of the black devil, and he was also the only person who had direct contact with Zhang Nan.

Hearing this, Hou San became dissatisfied, "Then if this continues, there will be no money in the mansion at all, how to ensure the life of the son and his wife, and how to prepare for the birthday gift of the lord?" ”

Yuan Xi stood up and fell into deep thought, even if he didn't have the two thousand gold that Zhang Nan needed, this money was not enough, after all, the situation in Youzhou was not clear, and he had to be fully prepared, this is really in response to the words of his previous life, fighting wars, money, and logistics, it seems that now he can only borrow money.

"Liu Quan, carry the car, I'm going to Zhen's mansion," Yuan Xi said softly.

"No," Liu Quan immediately responded.
