Zhong Hao can actually sell soju in the city of Linzhou by himself, but the profit is not as lucrative as the silver star and the city in Western Xia. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Selling soju to those Western Xia merchants here in Linzhou, I'm afraid that most of the profits will be made by those party merchants.

And to trade with the city of Yinxing in Western Xia, I am afraid that Zhong Hao's conditions will not be met, there is not enough force to guarantee, I am afraid that it will be difficult to do business, and there may be a lot of harassment and looting by the Xia army and the Tibetan tribe along the way.

Moreover, even if you go to Silver Star and City, it will be difficult to get the war horse you want, because you can't get out. Western Xia did not allow war horses to be exported to the Great Song Dynasty, just as the Great Song Dynasty did not allow iron weapons to be exported to the Western Xia, and this kind of regulation on the official face was very strict, and the enforcement was still very strong.

Therefore, the war horse needs to rely on the caravan of the Yang family and realize it through smuggling. In fact, there was a lot of smuggling trade between the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia, and it was repeatedly banned in the border areas. Of course, if you want to do the smuggling trade on the border, you need to have enough energy to buy off the defenders of Western Xia in order to transport the horses out of the Xia realm, and Zhong Hao is not capable of doing it now.

Besides, in fact, Zhong Hao and Yang Wenguang are in the soju business, making money is secondary, and the main thing is to establish close ties with Yang Wenguang.

Therefore, Zhong Hao happily offered Yang Wenguang a preferential condition of 55% of profits.

Yang Wenguang saw that Zhong Hao happily gave the condition of fifty-fifty percent of the profits, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately made a cooperation agreement with Zhong Hao.

Zhong Hao and Yang Wenguang discussed the details of specific cooperation, how much soju Zhong Hao can produce in a month, how much the Yang family caravan can sell at a time, how to manage the accounts, etc., all discussed in detail.

Zhong Hao put forward a request for some war horses, and wanted the Yang family caravan to help him get more as much as possible. As for the money for the war horses, it is deducted from the profits of the shochu trade.

Yang Wenguang said: "How much does this war horse Zhong Hao want?" ”

"This ...... Three hundred horses would be fine! Zhong Hao plans to train the three hundred soldiers selected by his Jingqiang Village into cavalry. The cavalry of the Great Song Dynasty was established, and a cavalry commanded 300 people. The three hundred soldiers of Jingqiang Village can just get together a cavalry command.

Of course, if you want to train a commanding cavalry, these three hundred war horses are far from enough. It's not that with a war horse, a warrior can quickly become a cavalryman. A qualified cavalryman is very laborious and materially difficult to train, and it takes a long time. To train a qualified cavalryman, you need at least two or three war horses. Because in cavalry training, there will inevitably be a large loss of war horses. And cavalry training takes a long time to form real combat power. Training cavalry is costly.

Zhong Hao doesn't have enough capital to train really elite cavalry now. He just planned to let the three hundred soldiers in Jingqiang Village have some mobility, even if they were infantry with better riding skills, and when a small group of men and horses of the Xia army came to harass and plunder, it would be good to be able to resist it.

Yang Wenguang pondered for a moment and said, "Three hundred horses is not much, but there is no problem." However, it is impossible to transport it out of the summer realm at once, and it must be transported out several times. ”

Zhong Hao said: "This is not a problem, the little nephew has thanked Uncle Yang Shi!" ”

Zhong Hao's current 300 soldiers are still very lacking in training, and they can't reach the stage of horse training for the time being, so the demand for war horses is not very urgent.

Now the 300 soldiers in Jingqiang Village are formulating a training plan and conducting queue training according to the discussion between Zhong Hao and Cui Feng. The soldiers of these chamber troops and prison battalions not only have poor combat effectiveness, but also have quite poor discipline. Zhong Hao and Cui Feng trained them in the queue to strictly enforce their discipline and execution, starting with the basics.

Zhong Hao remembered that he really didn't have a candidate who knew how to train cavalry, so he planned to mention it to Yang Wenguang to see if he could provide him with some support. In fact, not only cavalry training, but also infantry training, Zhong Hao did not have the manpower to understand the Xia army and have experience in this area. Although Cui Feng has trained regimental training in the stone unloading shed, those trainings are all local skills, and those training experiences are only suitable for dealing with bandits who occupy the mountains as kings, and I am afraid that there is no experience for dealing with Xia Jun.

Zhong Hao opened his mouth and said: "The little nephew still has a reluctant request, can Uncle Yang send a few experienced people to the little nephew to help train those soldiers in Jingqiang Village." The little nephew's subordinates really don't have the manpower to fight against the Xia army! ”

Yang Wenguang listened to it and said easily: "This is easy to say, there is no problem, my Yang family has nothing else, there are still people who have fought with the Xia army, yes, I will send you a few more capable people over in a few days to help you train your subordinates!" ”

"That little nephew has thanked Uncle Yang Shi!"

Yang Wenguang waved his hand and said with a smile: "What is the politeness of your own family!" Let's stay for dinner today, let Zhong Rong treat you well, and you brothers have a few cups of drink! ”

"No need, Uncle Yang Shi is polite!"

Yang Huaiyu stepped forward and pulled Zhong Hao and said, "Little brother finally met Brother Zhong, I can't let you leave like this, let's talk about wine and talk about it today!" ”

Zhong Hao had no choice but to stay.

……

At noon, Yang Wenguang set up a banquet in the state government to entertain Zhong Hao, and after three rounds of wine during the banquet, Yang Wenguang left, leaving the space for Zhong Hao and Yang Huaiyu.

A few glasses of soju went down, and he was a little drunk, Zhong Hao also let go of his arms, and chatted with Yang Huaiyu all over the world. In later generations, Zhong Hao lived in the era of developed network information and explosive knowledge and information, and naturally knew far more things than Yang Huaiyu. Zhong Hao casually told an anecdote, and Yang Huaiyu was stunned. After a lot of nonsense in the sea and the sky, Yang Huaiyu's admiration for Zhong Hao is like surging water, endless.

"Brother Zhong's knowledge in his chest is really profound, and the younger brother is really sincere in his worship, and I will ask Brother Zhong for more advice in the future!"

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, Zhong Rong's knowledge and experience in the army are many times that of my brother and mine, how inferior my brother is in this regard, when our brothers are free, communicate more!"

"Well, my brother can't ask for it. Come, Brother Zhong, little brother will toast you again! "Yang Huaiyu is young, and when he is in his youth, he likes this very strong soju very much, and he can't drink it enough.

Zhong Hao and Yang Huaiyu chatted not quite speculatively, and when they heard Yang Huaiyu's words, they immediately raised their glasses and Yang Huaiyu and said: "Okay, let's drink this cup together, come, drink to win!" ”

Zhong Hao and Yang Huaiyu drank a few more glasses, and as they became more and more drunk, they resolutely refused to drink. Although Zhong Hao let go of his arms today, he is still a little measured, so naturally he can't get drunk in this Linzhou Prefecture, otherwise he is afraid that he will leave an unstable impression on Yang Wenguang in the future.

Yang Huaiyu was drinking, but he kept inviting to drink, and said: "Brother Zhong, you and my brother are talking about wine today, and the conversation is strong, so naturally you have to get drunk and rest, Brother Zhong, you won't drink it, it's too disappointing!" ”

Zhong Hao had no choice but to say: "Brother Zhongrong Xian, you and I have been here for a long time, and we will get drunk another day, today's eldest brother is really too strong to drink, and he can't drink anymore!" ”

Yang Huaiyu heard Zhong Hao say that the coming day was long, his eyes flashed, as if he thought of something, he didn't persuade Zhong Hao to drink together, and said in his mouth: "Yes, you and my brother will come to Japan for a long time, and they will conspiracy to get drunk in the future!" ”

Zhong Hao smiled: "Okay, okay, another day, the eldest brother will definitely sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman." ”

"Well, it's a deal!"

"It's a deal!"

Zhong Hao suddenly remembered the eldest brother Zhong Cheng he met when he was in Yidu County Prison, and according to Han Hu, Zhong Cheng was now in Yang Wenguang's personal army. Zhong Haoda had been wanting to ask Yang Wenguang about Zhong Cheng's situation yesterday, but he never found a chance to speak, and when he remembered it, he asked Yang Huaiyu: "Can Brother Zhong Rongxian know a military man named Zhong Cheng, it is said that he is in Yang Shishu's personal army!" ”

"Ah, there is such a person, this guy is not only bold in fighting, but also has some literary talents, which is quite appreciated by his father! What's the matter, Brother Zhong knows him? ”

"Ah, it's here. He is a brother I met when I was in Qingzhou, he is quite bold, and we have a very good relationship! ”

"Then I'll have someone call him to meet my eldest brother!"

Yang Huaiyu asked people to withdraw the banquet, let people serve freshly brewed tea, and sent a long entourage to find Zhong Cheng.

Zhong Hao and Yang Huaiyu drank tea and waited for Zhong Cheng.

Qingzhou has been separated for more than a year and a half, and Zhong Hao is really looking forward to meeting Zhong Cheng, a rather bold big brother. When Qingzhou separated, I really didn't expect the two to meet again in Linzhou. Zhong Hao sighed in his heart: The wonder of this encounter is really a bit wonderful.

Remembering the sound of footsteps outside the door, Zhong Hao stood up when he heard it.

Zhong Cheng heard Yang Huaiyu shouting at him, he didn't know what was going on, and he was thinking about it in his heart! As soon as he entered the house, he suddenly saw Zhong Hao, and couldn't help but be in a trance, thinking that he had seen it wrong, and couldn't help but rub his eyes vigorously.

Zhong Hao stepped forward with a bear hug and laughed: "Big brother, it's me, Wenxuan." Haha, I miss me! ”

Only then did Zhong Cheng know that he really had to see Zhong Hao, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, grabbed Zhong Hao's shoulders hard, and said with a smile: "Why is it Wenxuan, why are you here!" Haha, I can't imagine that our brothers can meet again in Linzhou! "Among the four irons in life, squatting in prison together is one of them, Zhong Cheng is still very grateful to Zhong Hao, and the two are really close friends.

Zhong Hao smiled: "It's a long story, but the eldest brother makes it easy for the brother to find!" ”

At this time, Yang Huaiyu saw that Zhong Hao and Zhong Cheng were reunited, and he must have a lot to say, and said at the moment: "Old Zhong, you don't have to be on duty in the afternoon, I'm in charge, let you take half a day off, and chat with my brother Zhong in the afternoon!" ”

Zhong Cheng remembered that Yang Huaiyu was still beside him, and hurriedly saluted Yang Huaiyu: "My subordinates have seen the young general, uh, isn't it okay for my subordinates to leave without reason?" "Since Zhong Cheng came to Linzhou, he has been quite cautious and conscientious. At this time, seeing Yang Huaiyu giving him a holiday, he felt a little embarrassed.

Yang Huaiyu scolded with a smile: "Let you take a holiday, what's wrong, besides, it's not really a holiday for you, you still have a task, you have to accompany my brother Zhong this afternoon!" ”

"That subordinate thanked the major general!"

Zhong Hao and Zhong Cheng have been separated for more than a year, and they have a lot to say, so they will say goodbye to Yang Huaiyu immediately.

Yang Huaiyu knew that they would reunite after a long absence, and he would not keep them at the moment, so he let them take care of themselves.

There are more than 120 miles from Linzhou City to Jingqiang Village, and it takes more than half a day to ride a horse. At noon today, Zhong Hao didn't plan to rush back to Jingqiang Village today, and he just had time to go to the restaurant to talk to Zhong Cheng.

"Why don't you go to the restaurant where the younger brother stays together and have a good time, how about it?"

"Very good!"

Zhong Hao took Zhong Cheng to the "Quanfu Restaurant" where he stayed last night, and asked the restaurant owner to send a few small dishes and two jars of rice wine. Zhong Hao and Yang Huaiyu drank a little too much at noon, although in order not to get drunk and make a fool of themselves in the state government, they left some amounts, and those with high degrees couldn't drink it, but rice wine with no degree was still okay.

When Zhong Hao and Zhong Cheng came in, Ke Yao was sitting in the guest room in a daze. Zhong Hao patted his head before he remembered that there were still people in the house. At the moment, I shouted to the shopkeeper of the restaurant, and opened another room for Ke Yao, so that Ke Yao could live, so that there would be no room at night, and it would be as embarrassing as yesterday. Besides, Zhong Hao plans to sleep with Zhong Cheng tonight and talk all night, but it is not convenient for Yao to be here.

Although the guest room was opened, Ke Yao did not leave, insisting on serving Zhong Hao and Zhong Cheng to drink, saying that this was the responsibility of the maid.

Zhong Hao was really not used to the servant girl serving by the side, and besides, he was chatting with Zhong Cheng, but it was inconvenient for Ke Yao to be around, so he persuaded Ke Yao to go back to his room.

"Come, big brother, a toast to our brothers to be reunited in this northwest frontier!" Zhong Hao poured rice wine into the cups of the two and held them up to Zhong Chengdao.

Zhong Cheng also raised his glass and said: "Meeting old acquaintances in a foreign country is also one of the four joys of life, our brothers are reunited here today, the eldest brother is really happy today, come, brother, do it!" ”

"Big brother made it easy for me to find it, now it seems that the eldest brother is mixing well, and sure enough, with the ability of the eldest brother, he will come out wherever he goes!" Zhong Hao said with a smile.

Zhong Cheng waved his hand and said, "It's not good to talk about it." After Zhong Cheng finished speaking, he asked again: "Big brother, you are really good at mixing with your brother, you have become a guest in General Yang's mansion!" Brother, how did you come to this land west of the river? ”

Zhong Hao listened to Zhong Cheng's questioning, and immediately told him what had happened to him in the past year and a half.

When Zhong Hao said that he was kidnapped by Erlong Mountain and Han Guang was killed by Gu Laosi in order to save himself, Zhong Cheng couldn't help but mourn: "It's a pity Brother Han!" ”

Zhong Hao hurriedly said: "Gu Laosi, who killed Brother Han, was killed by Brother Cui who unloaded the stone shack, and it can be regarded as revenge for Brother Han!" "Actually, I have been asking Cui Feng to help find Su Yuefei's whereabouts, and Zhong Hao will definitely only kill Su Yuefei to get revenge on Han Guang. But now, in order to comfort Zhong Cheng, Zhong Hao naturally won't mention Su Yuefei's escape.

"Alas, then Brother Han can rest in peace."

Zhong Hao told Zhong Cheng about being appreciated by Fu Bi and Fan Zhongyan and coming to Tuntian in the northwest.

Zhong Cheng sighed: "Big brother, I have long seen that my brother is not a thing in the pool, but now he is young and he is alone, and it is limitless in the future!" ”

Zhong Hao smiled bitterly: "The little brother's ability is limited, what can he talk about!" After the eldest brother came to Linzhou, what was the situation, it was quite powerful to get mixed with General Yang's personal soldiers so quickly. ”

Zhong Cheng said with a smile: "What's so powerful, it's nothing more than that when the thief came, he sacrificed his life to fight!" When Zhong Cheng told Zhong Hao about his experience after coming to Linzhou, he also told Zhong Hao. (To be continued.) )
