Chapter 256: The Gift
"Father-in-law, there are a few Mongolians outside the door who ask to see him, and they say that they are giving gifts to his father-in-law."
Listening to the guard's words, Ye Xun was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, it must be Altan who came, because he had never dealt with other Mongols, he came just in time, and he was about to look for him, so he ordered the guards to invite Altan in.
In a short time, I saw Altan, dressed in Mongolian clothes, striding in, and several Mongolian warriors carrying a huge box behind him.
Seeing this scene, Ye Xun couldn't help but smile, it is certainly happy for someone to give gifts, but such a big box is definitely not filled with gold and silver jewelry, so what will it be?
"You guy, come on! What else to give? Are you afraid that I won't entertain you? ”
Altan touched his chest with his hand, bowed down, and said: "Come to see your father-in-law, how can you come empty-handed, I didn't know what my father-in-law liked before, but after I knew, I did it immediately, and asked my father-in-law to smile."
Listening to Altan's words, Ye Xun wondered in his heart, what he liked, how could he know?
At this time, I saw Altan order his subordinates to put the box in front of Ye Xun, and then open it, but saw that it was not gold and silver treasures, but a little girl who was sleeping.
Seeing this scene, Ye Xun couldn't help but be stunned, and his questioning eyes swept to Altan, and said, "Who are you?" ...”
"I heard that my father-in-law has always wanted this girl, so I went to invite her over, and my father-in-law was relieved that the person was not injured, but just fed some drugs to prevent her from crying"
Looking at Altan's expression, Ye Xun suddenly understood that this girl was a big jade!
said that he wanted Da Yu'er, it was just a bad taste of Ye Xun, that is, he wanted to use it to disgust Huang Taiji, but he didn't really want this girl at all, but he didn't expect that because of his joke, Altan really got people.
Ye Xun knows Da Yu'er's background very well, so what kind of gift is this, it is obviously a big trouble, and it is a more fatal kind.
But the person has already sent it, that is to say, this trouble has to be accepted, and if it is not accepted, it must be accepted.
smiled bitterly: "Da Yu'er, right!" We really have to thank you, you all know what I want."
Altan didn't look at Ye Xun's expression at all, and said complacently: "As long as the father-in-law likes it, the villain will give anything to the father-in-law."
Ye Xun now has the heart to pinch him to death, but he still has to pretend to have a relieved expression on his face, and said: "It's hard for you, this love book has been written down by my father-in-law, and there will be a reward in the future."
Altan is waiting for Ye Xun's words, what he wants Ye Xun knows, but he also knows that Ye Xun can't help him with all his strength at present, but it doesn't matter, as long as there is this favor, it will be easier to open his mouth when he looks for Ye Xun in the future.
Ye Xun asked Altan to wait, took Da Yu'er out of the box, and then turned back to the back house and handed it to the Hua sisters.
The two young ladies couldn't help but be stunned when they saw Ye Xun hugging such a small girl back.
Hua Rui said directly: "Brother Ye, you don't really like little girls like the legends outside, right?" Oops! ”
Before he finished speaking, Ye Xun shuddered in his head, only to hear Ye Xun exhale angrily: "You little girl is really underwhelmed, you don't know who I am?" Hurry up and get some cold water to wake her up, and I'll talk to you again."
Ye Xun left after speaking, and he still had to discuss the matter of grain and grass with Altan.
Back in the living room, Ye Xun didn't go around in circles, and directly proposed to Altan that he wanted to buy cattle and sheep on the grassland.
Altan thought for a moment and said: "Don't tell my father-in-law that the Mongolian tribes closest to Liaodong were all affected by the white plague last winter, and this time is the breeding period of livestock, I am afraid that there is no surplus livestock to sell to you, if it is farther Horqin Department, maybe it is about the same."
Speaking of which, Altan himself is a little unconfident, because Da Yu'er was snatched by him from the Horqin Ministry, there is no impermeable wall in this world, if the Horqin Ministry knows that Da Yu'er is here in Ye Xun, it would be strange if he was willing to sell cattle and sheep to Ye Xun.
How can there be such a thing?
Ye Xun is also a little stupid, the Horqin Department and the Jurchen have gone the closest, and now they have made such a thing, is the Horqin Department willing to help him? However, it quickly reacted that crises are often accompanied by opportunities, and it would not be a good thing if you could contact the Horqin Department through Da Yu'er.
Thinking of this, Ye Xun changed the topic and said with a smile: "Altan, you can't be a horse bandit for the rest of your life, right?" You also know the situation on my side, and I will definitely not be able to help you ascend to the position of tribal leader now, so what are your plans next? ”
Altan perked up, in fact, he also came for this matter, and said busily: "The villain has thought about it, if the father-in-law doesn't dislike it, the villain wants to stay with the father-in-law first, I don't know if the father-in-law is willing to take it in?" ”
Ye Xunxin said that he thought about it with Lao Tzu, nodded and said: "Now there are many Mongolian people who have fled to Tieling, and I am also looking for someone to manage them, if you want, manage them for me first!" But there is a condition, this is not a grassland, everything must be according to the customs of our Han people, if you can accept it, you will stay, and if you can't accept it, you will be sent away."
After listening to Ye Xun's words, Altan was first happy, and then became a little uncomfortable, and said in his heart that this is a place for you Han people, but if you want the Mongolians to change their customs, it will be a little difficult, and you don't want us Mongolians to become Han Chinese, right?
In fact, Ye Xun fought this idea, Liaodong is vast and sparsely populated, and requires a lot of labor, the Mongolians live by grazing, and now they came to Tieling because they can't go on, and when the days are good, or there is a letter from the grassland, these people can't tell when they will return to the grassland again, and the food and other materials that were put on them before are no different from meat buns beating dogs.
Seeing Altan's embarrassed face, Ye Xun continued: "We Han people have a saying that we Han people follow the customs of the locals, and there is no free lunch in this world, you think about this matter first, I will never force it."
In fact, in Liaodong, many Mongols have been completely integrated into the Han Chinese, such as Man Gui, and Qi Bingzhong, who just came from Daning with Ye Xun, are all serving the imperial court as Mongols, and there are also many Mongolian warriors in the Tieling Army.
Altan understood Ye Xun's intentions, and after pondering for a while, he finally nodded and said: "Father-in-law is loved, if Altan refuses to resign, he doesn't know how to lift, father-in-law rest assured, I will definitely manage the clansmen well."
In fact, the main reason why Altan came to Ye Xun was that the living space of his gang of horse bandits was getting smaller and smaller, and at the same time he lost the assistance of the Jurchens.
And if Altan doesn't show up, Ye Xun will give this task to Qi Bingzhong, after all, he is also a Mongolian.
Now the three major battalions in Tieling are named after the three characters of fen, brave, and loyalty, and soon Ye Xun will set up another Mongolian battalion, and even the name has been thought of, and it will be called the battalion with the word "Cheng".
