A group of cavalry, leading a group of farmers, is moving forward quickly.

Follow the river, all the way forward.

Ashina was riding on a horse, and his face became solemn and nervous.

Ashinakehu, as soon as he heard this name, he knew the Turkic nobles, but now, he was just a small guerrilla general.

However, being able to avoid several purges and still serve as a general shows that this is not simple, and it also shows that the other party's loyalty to the country is still very high.

The ones that are not tall have already been killed.

Along the way, although he did not encounter any resistance, he could not take it lightly.

Occasionally, some savage tribes have also been exterminated.

And among this group of people, there were several old men in coarse cloth clothes, just like ordinary old farmers, their faces were full of mulberry and their faces were serious.

"Stop!"

Suddenly, a kind voice rang out, and everyone quickly stopped.

Several old men dismounted, and then dug up the dirt from the ground with their hands, holding a hand of black dirt that was still a little wet.

"This ...... This...... It's a fertile land. The old man said excitedly, and put a small piece of clay in his mouth and tasted it.

"It's a waste to be a ranch here, it's a waste." Another old man said.

"I really didn't expect that the so-called ancient cold land would have such a rich place."

"This is simply a gift from God to our Great Zhou Kingdom."

“……”

The old men were excited.

This land is really wonderful!

With this land, your children and grandchildren can rest and recuperate!

"Masters, how is the land here?" Ashina asked.

"Good, good, good, this place can be reclaimed for tens of millions of acres of fertile land." An old man held his beard, and did not dislike the dirty hands on his hands, and said, "Here it is, camp!" Along this river, the land will be cultivated tomorrow. ”

"Yes, with this place, Da Zhou will not worry about not eating and drinking in the future." Another old man sighed and said, "If we had come here earlier, we would have been able to eat new wheat this year." ”

"It's a pity, but with these wheat fields, we don't have to worry about eating."

"Yes, don't worry, don't worry."

“……”

A few old men were happy.

For the future, there is a lot of hope in my eyes.

"Isn't it possible for us to eat wheat in the future?" Ashina asked.

"In the future, let you eat every day, until you are tired, if the land here is reclaimed, a harvest can be used for Da Zhou for a year." The old man said with a smile.

"That's really good!" Ashina was overjoyed.

What did I do when I went south to hunt straw mushrooms in the past?

Just to have a hot meal!

Nomads don't farm, they only graze, and they envy the wheat of the farming people.

Now, the Great Zhou has begun to grow wheat in the country, and when the land here is reclaimed, the national strength of the Great Zhou will be even stronger.

The people hurriedly set up camp in the area.

Then, he began to look around.

The next day, men with hoes and shovels began to dig the land.

This is a fertile land, and although the environment is a little harsh, what is it for those who were once precarious?

At this time, there are still some wasteland clearing teams that are heading to other places.

We must open up this rich land out of wasteland.

Cheng Chubi didn't go out again, Chai Lingyu's labor date was getting closer and closer, and he had to be by his side all the time before it could be feasible.

And Cheng Chubi was very helpless, in the past few days, Chai Lingyu let his henchmen go to Cheng Chubi's couch, and almost squeezed Cheng Chubi dry.

However, this situation was very popular in ancient times.

In ancient times, there were maids in the room, and when the hostess was not in good health, such as the eldest aunt, such as being pregnant, the girl had to accompany the male host.

However, what Cheng Chubi didn't know was that those were not girls in the room, but Chai Lingyu's sisters.

Chai Lingyu naturally understands, although she is now the empress of the Great Zhou, the number of the royal family is too small, even if she is a slave, she can only give Cheng Chubi a few children at most.

There are too few heirs for a prince, which is quite bad for a country.

Therefore, Chai Lingyu can only make this decision.

These days, Cheng Chubi is a groom almost every night.

On this day, after waking up, Cheng Chubi walked slowly to the main hall of the palace.

I saw that at this time, Xiao Ruyi commanded a group of people who were carrying boxes of things out of the treasury of the palace.

"Huh?" Cheng Chubi felt a little puzzled and walked over.

When the soldiers saw Cheng Chubi, they hurriedly saluted.

Driven by curiosity, he opened one of the boxes.

I saw that inside the box, yellow-orange-orange-yellow-orange-orange, there were pieces of gold nuggets.

That's right, it's a nugget!

"Xiao Ruyi, what are you doing here?" Cheng Chubi asked.

"The money given to the merchants, which has been squeezed for several months, is now being paid all at once." Xiao Ruyi said.

"Huh?" Cheng Chubi was very puzzled, what the hell is this, so many boxes of gold are needed?

Although Da Zhou is quite wealthy, there is too much gold, right?

"Raising soldiers and raising soldiers is relying on money, how can you raise soldiers without money? And now we have to increase the construction, and the cost will naturally be more. Xiao Ruyi looked at Cheng Chubi, and his face was a little weird.

Don't you know that most of the gold of the Zhou Kingdom has entered the treasury of the Tang Dynasty? Especially those Hu merchants, they don't want other metals at all, and they want gold trading by name.

The Great Zhou Dynasty is in ruins, especially grain, cement, and soybeans are all to be purchased from Datang, and there are also some Datang commodities.

Of course, these things are handled by the Ministry of Commerce, so Cheng Chubi doesn't know much about it.

"Hey, the purity of this gold is very high, what did Yu'er do? If you follow me, why don't you learn to be smarter? Tell them first, pay for it in a few days, and bring these things back first. Cheng Chubi said.

"This ...... Not okay? Xiao Ruyi said.

"What? I don't listen to me? I'll teach you a good lesson tonight. Cheng Chubi's eyes widened, it was really against you.

"Phew!"

Hearing Cheng Chubi's words, Xiao Ruyi showed a hint of shyness.

"By the way, find some craftsmen, I have something to arrange for them." Cheng Chubi looked at the gold, and his saliva flowed.
