"That's right, you can't get much food." Elley didn't understand what Yoo was trying to say.

"Isn't that the end of it?" Liu Cai clapped his hands, "You can't collect much grain, you still have to provide them with food, this in and out, isn't it a loss?" ”

"Hey, yes, why didn't you think of it before?" Erli scratched his hand on the shiny scalp, very puzzled, such a simple truth, it was necessary to be reminded to understand, completely forgetting the pickling work done by the Han people.

This is actually a blind spot in the mind, in addition to farming, the Han people can see the harvest, other such as building and repairing houses, serving the nobles in the banner, handling prey and fish, although these jobs are busy and tiring, but they do not see any output.

Liu Cai deliberately said this, and Aierli was taken by him to lean on his train of thought, and he really gave birth to the idea that since he couldn't grow food, it would be a loss to raise these Han people.

"It's a loss, it's a loss." Ellellidon Footpath.

Since it is not cost-effective to raise Han people, it is better to... Thinking of this, Elley's eyes rolled, "Since Shopkeeper Liu said so, then I'll talk to Amma, just take them all..."

"Don't don't, little prince, if you kill all these people, it will hurt the heavens and the heavens, and the heavens have the virtue of a good life, so it's inappropriate and inappropriate to act like this." Liu Cai hurriedly said that their original intention was not to let the blue flag kill the Han people.

Erli laughed, but in his heart he didn't think so, these Han people are hypocritical, what's the big deal about killing people.

"What does Shopkeeper Liu think should I do? After saying this for a long time, there must be a way. "Erli has also come back to his senses now, this shopkeeper Liu has been rambling here for a long time, he must have some ideas.

"Hehe, the little prince is really smart, so he knows that he can't hide it from you." Liu Cai smiled, "Didn't you buy a few fish skin tartars from the prince and you yesterday?" ”

Yesterday, Liu Cai found Amin in the name of lack of manpower and wanted a few guards, and bought several fish skin tartars, including the Haidong Qing people, if only one person was bought, it might not be so smooth, and there were many people, but it made Amin not suspicious, and the price was not low, fifty catties of fine grain for one person, Amin happily agreed.

"That's right, what's the matter, shopkeeper Liu, do you want to ask for it again?" Elley asked.

"I don't need guards, little prince, we businessmen, it's enough to have the power to protect ourselves, but for others, I really need it, and the more the better." Liu Cai whispered in Erli's ear, "Since it is not cost-effective to raise these Han people in your banner, it is better to sell them to me." ”

"Shopkeeper Liu, you're fine, these Han people are weak, and they are of little use except for farming, what do you want to buy them for, do you want to get them back to the customs to farm for you?" Erli is a little incredible, in his eyes, the Han people who are not very useful, this Liu shopkeeper is actually willing to buy it.

"Farming? Little prince, you think too much, although we have a bit of thin fields in the Guannai, there are enough manpower, but the more I just said, the better. Liu Cai explained with a smile, "Let's tell you the truth, there are many iron-making mines in Jinxi in Guannei, and they are in urgent need of manpower, so buy these people to work, just provide a little food, and let them work day and night, if they can't survive to death, they can buy it again, which is much more cost-effective than recruiting people locally." ”

This reason was finally figured out by Zhiwen, Liu Cai, and Li Dingguo, and it is also in line with the true character of a profiteer.

Sure enough, when Ele heard this, he looked Liu Cai up and down, and smiled knowingly, "Shopkeeper Liu, you are so calculating, I don't know the Han people in our banner, what are you worth?" ”

Liu Cai smiled and stretched out three fingers, "Thirty catties of grain for an adult, the old and weak women and children were originally not going to ask for it, but it is a pleasure to cooperate with Guiqi, so let's do it, ten catties of grain for one, how about it?" ”

This price is the same as the price paid by the mercenaries to insert the Han Department and pull people's heads.

"Thirty?" Elley frowned, "Compared to the fish skin tartar I bought yesterday, it's a lot less." ”

"Little prince, people are different, those fishskin tartars are powerful, how can these Han people compare? Of course, if you still have fish skin tartars willing to sell, then I won't be polite, or fifty catties of grain per person, what? ”

"That's right." Erli silently calculated in his heart that although the price of the Han people was low, it was better because of the large number of people, and selling a batch would be a large amount of grain.

The true price of giving birth to a girl is high, but there are not many people, and it can be regarded as an important combat force, so I am a little reluctant to sell it, but these people are thorns, and it is much more difficult to tame than the Han people.

"Shopkeeper Liu, it's a big matter, and I can't be the master, when Ama comes back, I will talk to him." Elley thought for a long time, and finally said to Liu Cai.

"Yes, the prince and the little prince should sum it up, this matter will not suffer for both of you and me, and please do your best to promote this matter." Liu Cai arched his hand.

"I'll do my best." When Liu Cai turned around to leave, he suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and asked in a low voice, "Shopkeeper Liu, the Han people have thirty catties of grain, and the birth of Jurchen has fifty catties of grain, so how many catties of grain should we, the Jianzhou people of the Dajin Kingdom, be worth?" ”

Liu Cai's face changed greatly, "Little prince, don't joke around, borrow me ten guts, and don't dare to have such thoughts." ”

"Alas, don't be nervous, I'm just curious, I just want to see how valuable our gold people are in your hearts." Elley laughed.

Liu Cai's head shook like a rattle, "Little prince, as a noble person, you are all priceless treasures. ”

No matter what Elle said, Liu Cai said that he would not let up on this topic.

Seeing that it was a little boring, Elley let go of his hand and let Liu go before leaving.

......

"What, they're going to buy people again?" Amin slammed the thick bowl on the low table, looked at Elley and asked.

"That's right, Amma." Elley told Amin everything about his conversation with Yoo Cai that afternoon.

"Hehe, this Liu shopkeeper is not simple, I'm afraid he has long taken a fancy to these Han people in our banner, yesterday he bought a Jurchen, just throwing stones to ask for directions." Amin laughed.

"Huh?" Elli was a little dumbfounded, but he didn't expect that he would just buy and sell some dingkou, and there were so many ways, "Amma, then do we still sell it?" ”

"Sell, if you have money to make money, why don't you sell it, and you can save some food." Amin replied without hesitation, although this time the harvest is not small, but who would be too much, if the money and food are rich, not only will the people of the blue flag be stable, but they can also change some armor and blades to enhance their strength.
