Chapter 555: The Third Way
"Lord Wang, little Lord Wang, this is Hai Dongqing, who was originally the guard of my caravan." Zhiwen introduced to Amin and others.
"Hai Dongqing?" As soon as Dajib saw the outfit of the big man in front of him, he knew that he was not a Han, and when he heard the name, he was not only more certain, but also saw some clues, "I don't know which tribe you are?" β
Hai Dongqing looked at Zhiwen and saw that he nodded slightly to him, so he replied sullenly, "Ye Hebu's." β
"Yehebe's!" Erli was so young that he couldn't help but exclaim, wasn't Ye Hebu already destroyed by their Jianzhou Jurchen, how could there be anyone, and he was mixed with the Ming Kingdom Jinyiwei, and only then did he have a little understanding of the horror of Jinyiwei.
"Oh!" Elley then exclaimed, "A few days ago, your trading company asked me to buy a few raw Jurchens, I'm afraid it's because they're from Yehe, right?" β
Hearing the words "Born Female Truth", Hai Dongqing's face twitched slightly, but he still endured it and nodded.
"Your young proprietor is really good to you." Dajibu said, Bian and Wuda looked at Zhiwen deeply, it seems that Hai Dongqing has been following this kid for a long time, and Jinyiwei has already snagged the people of Ye Hebu, so the picture is not small.
Amin was not surprised, it was normal for Jinyiwei to have this means, what he paid attention to was what Zhiwen said when he introduced Hai Dongqing, I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, "Wait a while, young owner, you just said that this brother was originally a caravan guard, that means that it won't be in the future?" β
"Hehe, the prince is really wise." Zhiwen smiled, the path he wanted Amin and them to take was neither north nor west, but the third road, the same road as Hai Dongqing, "Hai Dongqing, tell the prince what you want to do in the future." β
"Yes, Childe." Hai Dongqing bowed slightly, and then said one by one, "Gongzi said, after leaving the blue flag, I and the other clansmen in the caravan will set up the Yehe mercenary group, march to the northeast, enter the dense forest of Dongjin Mountain, and then use this as a base to recruit people with lofty ideals and find trouble with the Jianzhou Jurchen, during which the food and ordnance needed will be provided by the caravan." β
"When you go to Dongjin Mountain, isn't it a wilderness... Human. Under Hai Dongqing's gaze, the last few words were almost inaudible.
Dajibu and Wuda also frowned, don't look at the fact that they used to enter Dongjin Mountain from time to time to plunder the Jurchens of various tribes, but they all knew that it was indeed difficult to survive compared to the territory laid down by the Jin Kingdom today.
When Amin heard this, his heart moved, lurking in Dongjin Mountain, waiting for an opportunity to harass all parts of Jianzhou, it was indeed a good idea, not only did he not have to travel a long distance to migrate, but he could also fulfill his long-cherished wish to take revenge on Huang Taiji, and if he had the opportunity, maybe he could fight back to Hetuala.
"Young proprietor, I want to ask, Brother Hai Dongqing said that the caravan provides food and ordnance, but really, what does the mercenary group mean?" Amin doesn't care about the hardships of Dongjin Mountain, the conditions when he was a child are not much better, the key is that it is not easy to obtain food in that kind of place, and there is no way to talk about blades and armor, which is also the reason why the Jurchen has been beaten by the Jianzhou Jurchen and can't raise his head, as long as these two problems are solved, he has the confidence to break his wrist with Huang Taiji.
"Lord Wang, let me explain," Zhiwen replied, "Hai Dongqing didn't make it clear just now, food and ordnance, and caravans are not provided for free, so you have to exchange things for them." β
"Take something in exchange, what is it, Dongzhu ginseng Ula grass?" Elley asked, and he naturally remembered what Liu Caichu had asked for when he dealt with him.
"These things can be self-contained, as long as you can find them, we will accept them, but, little prince, have you forgotten the most important things?" Zhiwen asked rhetorically.
"Oh! You're talking about people. It dawned on Elley.
"That's right," Zhiwen replied, "compared to ginseng Dongzhu Wula grass, although the price of people is lower, but it is better than the quantity, isn't it, and it is much easier to catch people than to find those things, isn't it?" β
"What is the price?" Amin asked.
There is a door, Zhiwen said secretly, as the leader, Amin, began to ask the price.
"It's still the same as what was said before, Hai Dongqing's Ye He mercenary group is also at this price, and the Han people have thirty catties of grain each, and they are born... The fifty catties of the tribes in Dongjinshan are provided that they are alive and not dead, but in view of your long-term activities in Dongjinshan in the future, I do not recommend that you exchange the people of the Dongjinshan tribe for food. Zhiwen replied.
"Han Chinese? Where are we going to find Han Chinese for you? Elley asked.
"Cut!" Hai Dongqing snorted, "You don't have it, won't you go to Hetuala, Shengjing, and Liaoyang to find it?" β
"It's... What do you meanβ" Elley choked out speechless, finally knowing what Zhiwen wanted them to do.
Amin didn't make such a fuss as Elley, he had already seen Zhiwen's intentions.
And Zhiwen is right, since he wants to operate in Dongjin Mountain, he naturally can't provoke those natives anymore, so as not to be attacked before and after, Amin understands this truth, not only can he not provoke, but he also has to find a way to absorb these people to continuously increase his strength.
"That's a little missing, isn't it?" Now Amin is concerned about how much food Zhiwen can spend on him to sell his life, "I'm afraid the young proprietor doesn't just want us to save the Han people?" β
He knew that the chips in his hands in the future would never be only Han Chinese.
"The prince is really powerful." Zhiwen praised it slightly, and then asked Ai Erli, "Do you still remember, a few days ago, you asked Shopkeeper Liu, what about the price of Jianzhou Jurchen?" β
Seeing Ai Erli nodding, Zhiwen continued, "At that time, Shopkeeper Liu didn't dare to answer your words, but now I can answer you, the adult men and women of the Jianzhou Jurchen are all eighty catties of grain per person, which is the price of a living person, unlike the Han people, we also accept the head of the Jianzhou Jurchen, thirty catties of grain each." β
In order to encourage Amin and them, of course, including Hai Dongqing, Zhiwen can be said to have made a lot of money.
"Hehe, the young proprietor is really willing, our Jianzhou Jurchen is also valuable, right?" At this time, Zhiwen's intentions were already very clear, that is, they wanted them to kill each other with the Jianzhou Jurchens, and Dajibu was somewhat resentful and dissatisfied with this.
"Brother Dajib, it's time to go, do you still think you're a Jianzhou Jurchen? Even if you think so, will Huang Taiji approve of it? Zhiwen seemed to be a gentle sentence, and these people with blue flags present were so choked that they couldn't speak, they were about to be regarded as rebellious, and then they called themselves Jianzhou Jurchen, isn't it a bit stupid.
Of course, this does not include Amin, who values the interests rather than the Raushzi clan.
