There is one thing that Qin Cang pays special attention to, that is, he would rather sell knives than armor.

Armor is one of the most important tools for grass people. With armor, people dare to fight from above; With armor, a weak country also dares to provoke a strong one.

The surrounding countries are basically competitors, how can they give authority to human beings with their hands.

Eyes turned to Xinanwei. Xinanwei was officially listed as a county today.

This new, very late, but fast-growing city has now set up a county seat and built a city wall next to Lake Sin'an (the lake where Chabala is home). Its population has exceeded 3,500 people. Of these, more than 1,600 were Han Chinese, while the remaining 2,000 or so were heavily sinicized Tatars, 60 percent were from Desheng County and Chizhou, and 40 percent were Chabala and his people.

In addition, nearly 30,000 Tatar herders are active in the vicinity of Xin'an County. For these people, Xin'an County is not managed in principle. They set up seven reclamation sites in the three directions to the left and south of Xin'an Lake, and cultivated a total of 14,000 acres of land on this vast land. The rest of the land is left to the herders to determine themselves.

In principle, every time Xin'an County expands and cultivates, it will buy land from herdsmen who are grazing on this land, and the price is quite high, so Lao Chabala has become the richest man in Xin'an County by relying on this! Of course, the hedonistic Chabala also has his own business.

Chabala and his children were engaged in two businesses: one was sheep shearing and selling bacon and bacon; The second is a leather workshop they run next to the river. The leather products produced by this company, called Henan Tannery, such as belts, armed lanyards, leather cases and other items are very recognizable in the surrounding area, and can be regarded as local star products.

But in any case, Xin'an County was established so quickly because the threat of Mengus was getting more and more serious. The central government invested a considerable amount of financial subsidies in Xin'an County, and did not hesitate to build a beautiful star-shaped fortress in Xin'an County. Even the prefectural order was the son of a martial artist, and the purpose was to prevent Mengus from going south again.

I have to mention that Qin Siliang was stationed here, and his son Qin Wa became a county magistrate in Xin'an County after completing his studies. Regarding the name Qin Tile, I don't know how many times several mentors have persuaded him, but Qin Siliang just refused to let go. is a good reader, and he took this strange name. Qin Siliang insisted that his son's name was cheap and easy to support, and Qin Tiles could only let him go with the wind. Who made Qin Siliang his father?

Speaking of Mengus, we have to mention what I have seen and heard in the Gudil Department in the last month.

Little Harachi Mustafa became more and more delicate, and went about causing trouble like a little savage. Samaren was involved in a lot of energy by this bastard boy. However, Mingus of the Isthmus of Perekop once again gathered strong troops and went north, and with his ruthless style, he defeated several tribes in one fell swoop, and damaged the vitality of the Gudil tribe.

At this time, although the Gudil tribe also regained a city and killed Mengus's brother, it was rather to help Mengus consolidate his power.

The Gudil tribe was clearly defeated. So the question of Samaren's unsuitability to govern was raised again by the elders.

The Gudil Department was in turmoil.

So after the herdsmen's autumn harvest was over, the town of Shine became more prosperous. Coal, a resource that has not been able to get rid of until now, has immediately formed a huge industrial chain in Chizhou and other places. After the sulfur contained in the coal is also taken out, the sulfur resources of the territory are basically no longer purchased from outside, which objectively reduces the expenditure of the territory.

Chizhou tried to replace the sulfur and coal in the Chizhou iron mine, and about three or four percent of the sulfur could be cleaned up, which not only reduced the blacksmith's forging and cleaning process, but also caused the price of sulfur to drop sharply.

In the town of Shine, more than 3,000 Tatar men and 5,000 women gathered on this coalfield. They discover that life can also be different from wandering around. They set up their tents here, carrying hoes and shovels every day to pick up coal from fixed mines, then put it in baskets, and finally send it to the unified purchase point to collect money.

Although the price is not high, for the Tatars, this daily wage adds up to a considerable amount. And the Tatars found that in the town of Shine, they would have a better experience than the previous boring life.

They go to bed in the morning, dig coal from noon to afternoon, and when they get the money in the evening, they usually go back to the place that sells barbecue or Han Chinese food to have a full meal, and then bring some leftovers to their families. The richer ones will go to the newly built bars every once in a while.

So Zhang Qi's plan came true. These Tatars quickly entered the trajectory of urbanized life, and the ubiquitous Han culture allowed them to learn Chinese and live like a Han Chinese.

The language of the Han people, the official positions of the Han people, the food of the Han people, the residence of the Han people, and even the slang of the Han people swearing became popular.

The Tatars settled in smaller, more dispersed families. The originally large cattle and sheep were sold to other people or grazed by other people in the family. The Tatars spontaneously formed the city in the town of Shine.

The cinders, together with the lime, fill in the paved road from the town of Shine to the connecting port. It only takes two and a half hours to ride a horse to reach the connecting port. This economic path was embraced by many Tatars, because they loved the money-making black gold to death.

Connecting ports began to expand one after another. The farmland stretches inland, and a few villages stand tall on the vast grasslands with hedgerows. A cavalry regiment of 300 men was stationed at the port of Liantong. They are responsible for hunting down any thieves who interfere with the invasion of the connected port.

The eight o'clock in the middle of town began to strike. As soon as the sun rises in the center, the bell rings to remind the workers that it's time to get to work. The Han people came out at dawn in the morning, so they also jokingly called this kind of eight o'clock, which means that there is no time clock for eggs.

Here, no one loves the town of Shine.

......

Bakhchisaray Khan Palace.

Haji Gelley had another fulfilling day.

It is said that the ships of the Han people have reached the bay, and it is only a matter of time before they attack the Duchy of Theodosius. And the building materials for the construction of the Khan's Palace, which he urgently needed, were already on their way to Bakhchisaray.

Haji Gelley is satisfied. The little wolf is very ambitious, but also very well-behaved.

"My noble Khan, the night is coming." The Greek priest walked in with a smile. The reason he said that the night was coming was because of Haji Glei's night blindness. This old man, who is over forty years old, really has no way to take the night.

"Yes! Night is coming. It's time for me to rest, too. Haji Glay smiled and got up.

Who knew it would be at this time! Two messengers, covered in blood, came to Haji Glay.

"The hosts! Mengus has raided our tribe! ”

Haji Glay and the Greek priest were stunned.

"Yes, night is coming! But I'm not here to rest! Haji Gelai's anger threw the whole of Bakhchisaray into chaos.......
