But Ming Cunyi had a strong sense of resistance, and Gao Yue understood that his relationship with other party items in Gyeongju, Liufu, Dongshan, and Namsan was not good.

So Gao Yue carried forward the skills of the "political commissar of the Tang Dynasty", and said to Ming Cunyi bitterly: "You go to Gyeongju, Lingzhou, Xiazhou and other places to buy horses, and if you buy them, not only can you make meritorious contributions to the border army, but I can also give a part of the war horses to your sister light tribe to strengthen your strength." It is people who have grudges, what is the matter with war horses? When the war horse flows into the hands of other parties, you become weak when the other party grows stronger, and when the war horse comes into your hands, the situation is reversed, why not? In addition, the money and goods that are paid to you are 5,000 yuan as a deposit, and when will the remaining half of the money and goods be repaid? You take the camel and horse merchant who accepted the deposit, lead the purchased war horse, and return to the Wushi Post in Jingzhou, and I will pay off the full amount of the money. ”

Gao Yue's idea was to let the camel and horse merchants in the northwest border first recognize our Wushi Post Station in Jingyuan Town, and then I would set up a mutual market in this place to attract the Dangxiang tribes from all over the country to come to this market according to the fixed season, so that there was no need to buy the expensive Hui horses, and the same was true for the Qiang horses with the Dangxiang.

To put it mildly, Ming Cunyi finally agreed, but he also said that it was very difficult to buy 500 horses for 10,000 yuan, and 20 yuan for each horse. Because the price of the horse market in the entire northern land has been abnormalized by the market horses of the Tang Dynasty every year, even if it is a horse that has fallen from the party, it now costs thirty or forty yuan a horse.

"Okay, then you can bring me three hundred horses." Gao Yue thought about it and lowered the conditions.

Because it is much better to open up the war horse market of the party item than to be subject to the Hui people.

After sending Ming Cunyi away, Gao Yue returned to the middle hall of the public party and asked the chief bookkeeper Liu De's room about the recent buckwheat harvest.

"Quite impressive." After Liu De's room finished speaking, he handed over the inventory book to Gao Yue.

"Well, with a well-developed method of ditch irrigation and water production, coupled with effective fertilization, the flowering and fruiting in the buckwheat fields are fast and good. At this time, the food reserves of the soldiers in the camp throughout the winter are also abundant. ”

In addition, the monk Mingxuan was also very powerful, he simply demolished the Alanta Temple that was originally on the edge of the Gechuan River, and sent the excess timber and things to the Fang Market in Jingzhou City to sell, getting 300,000 yuan, and brought dozens of temple households, all of them moved to Baili New City, and set up a small temple.

With the approval of Gao Yue, the new Alanta Temple was erected in the lower reaches of the Daxi River, and a large field was granted (at the moment, the land price in Yuanzhou was very cheap), and Mingxuan also specially made a water pipe, using the water power of the river, and rumbling every day to help the Xincheng and Meiqing tribes grind the grain. In the end, Gao Yue took out half of the 3,000 yuan that Xiao Yi had given him before, and handed it to Ming Xuan, asking him to buy excellent crop seeds, "to Shang and Jin Erzhou (now southern Shaanxi) to buy brassica." ”

The so-called brassica is what later generations called rape. Since the Tang Dynasty, there have been many plantings in the north of the Han River, but the use - as Ming Xuan's very puzzled words said, "Isn't it to grow vegetables and herbs in the temple?" ”

Originally, there were three kinds of brassica, namely cabbage, mustard and cabbage, of which the cabbage type was not introduced into China until much later, and the brassica that the Tang Dynasty usually called "resembles cabbage" was the first type. But brassica, like cabbage, belonged to the "leafy vegetable" at that time, that is, people ate its leaves, but brassica was neglected, and it was not clear that it could be used to extract oil, and the most common oil-extracting crop at that time was sesame instead of brassica.

So Gao Yue told Ming Xuan about the use of brassica, and Ming Xuan happily accepted it.

Recently, in the military tun of Baili New Town, winter wheat has also begun to sprout.

How happy Gao Yue's heart is, he used to be a famous Confucian official in the Jingyuan camp, and finally had to be angry under the Zhongshu Gate, and the camp was abolished when he said that he would be abolished, and now he has the title of Yushitai, and he has the order of the imperial court, and the emperor escorts, he is the largest in this "one acre and three points of land" in Yuanzhou, and everything is much smoother, the only thing to worry about is to straighten out the relationship with the outside world.

What made him even happier was that the letter came from the Shengping Fang in the capital with a delivery shop before:

Yun Shao'an gave birth, Gao Yue became a father, and he was a chubby boy.

Gao Yue sat in front of the bookcase at this time, wrote the word "Jing" vigorously on a piece of hemp paper with a pen, and named the child "Gao Jing" according to Wei Gao's previous words.

Next, Gao Yue held up the word "actually" and showed it around, and he couldn't even hold back his laughter.

When the officials in the middle hall of the public hall saw this word, they were all extremely puzzled.

Or Liu De Room said, today's inspection has been completed, and everyone can go home.

Just when Gao Yue had just put this piece of paper into the seal and was about to hand it over to the famous officials to send to the Xincheng Station, there was a request from someone outside the door to see the Lingtai Order, and this person had not yet held the name tattoo.

"Who will be looking for me at this time?"

"Shed!"

This title was Gao Yue's long-awaited appearance, and he saw a young man in Mai under the hall step forward and shouted to himself.

"It's the beginning, it's the beginning!" Gao Yue and Liu Demuro were very overjoyed, and hurriedly pulled Liu Bi's sleeve, and the three of them were so excited that they couldn't speak.

Kaixian is the old name of Liu Pi (the word Taichu), he swallowed the relics of Chang'an, extorted 200 yuan from Ximing Temple, changed his name and lived in seclusion in Fengxiang's Famen Temple to continue studying, and learned that Gao Yue served as the Lingtai order of Yuanzhou, so he hurriedly came to see.

"Well said." Gao Yue immediately promised to give Liu Pi twenty guan run family money, let him stay in the new city temporarily, "I will write you a good solution and family statement immediately, and then give you twenty yuan in Taichu ten days later, you take my family letter to Chang'an by the way, and hand over the family letter to my mother-in-law, and then the capital Taofen shed will be handed over to you at the beginning of the year to take care of." ”

"What about Wei Chang?" Liu Pi asked, it should be Li Wei (Zi Weichang) who is in charge of the shed now.

Now Taofen sheds collect "shed money", which is enough to hold itself, after all, it has become famous in the past two or three years.

"You and Wei Chang are in charge together, who will keep the election first and expire immediately, or who will pass the ministry subject first, and then I will do my best to help you." Because now, even if Gao Yue wants to take Li Wei or Liu Pizheng as his assistant, he still needs them to be sued first.

There are no wine restaurants in Baili City, so Gao Yue entertained Liu De and Liu Pi in his own residence after the public house.

All dishes are prepared by Shuangwen and Zhi Hui.

In fact, it is very simple and simple, mainly buckwheat pasta, and it is eaten with lamb and chicken.

When Zhi Hui came out with a food plate, Liu Bi hurriedly saluted her, and Zhi Hui was surprised to return the salute.

It turned out that Liu Pi saw that Zhi Hui was already wearing an ordinary skirt, an ivory comb and a hairpin (this was given to her by the hostess), so he thought that she was already a concubine at the head of the shed.

After understanding in his heart that it was a misunderstanding, although he didn't say anything to Liu Bi (Liu Deshu and Shuangwen didn't say it), the master Gao Yue was a little embarrassed, and Zhi Hui also lowered her head and put the food plate on her chest, and hurriedly turned behind the screen without saying a word.

After the banquet, Gao Yue continued to try his best to check the old document book under the lamplight: he hoped to find the traces of Cai Fonu's father, whether he was dead or alive, and where was he now? Helong, Ganzhou, Shazhou, or more distant Xizhou, are the people in the Tang family, or have they been submerged in Xifan?
