On March 6, Feng Youcai first went to the grain store in Ningxia Prefecture, looked at the grain inventory, learned about the sales of grain, and then collected the silver and filled the warehouse with grain. As for the salaries of the soldiers stationed in the local area www.biquge.info the thousands of households Zhanlong received silver from the grain store and distributed it, and the grain store just kept an account, and Feng Youcai had records of how much silver he took away and how much grain he put down. Now there are fewer and fewer displaced people recruited from Ningxia Mansion, and it doesn't matter if Feng Youcai has it, anyway, there will be displaced people every year, and it is better to choose to be strong, and it is better to be short than indiscriminate, and if it is too late, spring ploughing will not be able to catch up, and it will be recruited to feed, so the enthusiasm is not great.

Arrived in Xi'an in the afternoon, Xi'an's sales situation is obviously better than Ningxia, mainly because the population here is large, but the land concentration is also large, there are many poor people, Feng Youcai's grain store has been taking the low-price route after opening to Xi'an, so the sales volume soon occupied the largest share of the Xi'an grain market, especially the preferential policies for military households and soldiers, for the grain store to bring a large number of stable customer base.

It's just that the Xi'an market can lead 100,000 taels of silver with Feng Youcai every month, of course, Feng Youcai's low food cost is a big reason, but no matter how low it is, it takes a process to exchange it for silver. At present, this is still just opened, and if the surrounding market is opened again, the income will be greater.

In order to obtain greater profits, Feng Youcai urged Lu Buqian to speed up the pace of opening a grain store. Originally, it was planned to open three stores in Luoyang, Linqing and Kaifeng this year, but now Feng Youcai asked Lu Buqian to open these three stores in the first half of the year. With less than 4 months to go, it's definitely intense.

"Young master, your changes are too fast, how can you ask for such a request, these 3 places are so far away, it is not a short time to go back and forth, it is too difficult to complete in the first half of the year, let's do our best, it will be very good to be able to open Luoyang." Lu Buqian begged for mercy.

"If it really doesn't work, Luoyang and Kaifeng will be opened in the first half of the year, and Linqing will be opened next year, but it will be opened to Tongzhou and Jinzhou in the second half of the year."

In order to make Lu Buqian open a grain store faster, Feng Youcai synthesized 5 senior merchants as his subordinates, ensuring that each grain store had 1 senior merchant as the shopkeeper. Liu Gui also synthesized 5 high-level spies and 10 high-level spies, and asked him to establish intelligence points along with the grain store, and each intelligence point was responsible for 1 senior spy.

With personnel and no shortage of money, Lu Buqiang first sent people to the above-mentioned cities to buy houses, establish strongholds, and then establish grain stores.

Feng Youcai is also in a hurry, it is 1617 now, the war with Houjin will expand next year, and the battle of Salhu in the spring of the next year will be completely defeated. Next year, the military headquarters is likely to transfer personnel from Ningxia Town to support the Liaodong front, and this is a great opportunity for itself, and I hope to seize it, so we must open grain stores to Jinzhou and Tongzhou, and to open intelligence points to Jinzhou and Tongzhou. If you don't open a grain store in advance, you won't have time to open a grain store at that time. Considering this, Feng Youcai said: "If it is really difficult, you can first send someone to buy a house in the few cities I said, and I will first set the system exit, so that it will be convenient for me to go when I open a grain store in the future, otherwise, I will not have time to open a grain store after next year, that is, no matter how close the two cities are, it will take a few days to ride a horse." ”

"Young master, then this is much simpler, we can take our time and strive to complete this task in the first half of the year. After all, buying a house and opening a grain store are two different concepts. Lu Buqian said.

"At the same time as buying a house, an intelligence point should also be established."

"Yes, young master, there is no problem at all." Liu Gui said.

"In this case, it is better to buy a house in Huai'an, which is very prosperous, and if we want to control the price of grain in the entire north in the future, we will definitely set up a grain store in Huai'an." Zhang Wei said.

"Young master, don't worry, in this way, I will buy a house in all the cities that need to open grain stores, and you will set a safety point whenever you want."

"Then it's up to you, just tell me the addresses of the houses in each city at the end, and tell me in advance if you are short of manpower."

"Yes, young master."

Zhan Hu asked: "Young master, now there are not many homeless people, and we have all selected the qualified ones, what should we do next?" ”

"Feel free to do this, if there is a suitable one, we will accept it, if there is no suitable one, forget it, we can't raise some waste."

"Yes, young master"

Liu Gui and Lu Buqian also knew that the young master's time was very urgent, and they also knew that the young master's big plan, if they wanted to control the Jiangbei grain market, they had to open grain stores in these cities, and the grain stores were very important to the young master; Although it is very difficult, we still have to try our best to complete this task, and now there is no shortage of people, no shortage of money, but lack of time.

In Xi'an, the silver taels after sales were taken back into the system, and the warehouses were filled with grain. After explaining the things that should be explained, he returned to the Senhe Office through the system exit. Now Feng Youcai doesn't dare to stay outside for too long, it's still important to have his own base.

After returning to the Thousand Households, Zhang Wei told Zhang Yang about his trip.

Zhang Yang thought for a while and said: "I don't have any ideas where I go to the Zongbeili tribe, the young master will go and bring people back in a few days, the main thing over there is to rob cattle, sheep and horses." I have some ideas about opening a grain store, and I just mentioned setting up system exits in those cities, which is a good idea, why didn't I think about it before? Young master, you can set up system exits in every big city and border city, and set up intelligence points in the local area, and when we start an incident that day, the young master can directly lead the troops over, disintegrate the enemy from the inside, and easily occupy the city, so that the casualties on both sides are small, we can win easily, and we can occupy the whole country in the shortest possible time, which avoids major turmoil and preserves the vitality of the nation as much as possible. ”

"I also think it's a good way for you to say this, I just thought of building a grain store quickly, I didn't think of it, I made a mistake, but it's not too late, so let's sum it up, let's see if it's appropriate for us to set up system exits in those cities, and the distance between each other should not exceed 500 kilometers, so that it is convenient for me to go, or it is not good to leave for too long every time."

"Okay, young master, then I'll take a good look at it, and see if it's good to set up exits in those important cities."

Feng Youcai was very excited, in this way, it would be much more convenient and easier to occupy the whole country by himself, and it would also reduce a large number of casualties.

Four days later, Feng Youcai came to the Zongbeili tribe again, at this time the surrounding Mongol tribes had been cleaned up, and the captured cattle, sheep and horses were also on the way to Hexi District. After Feng Youcai came, he put other materials into the system, and the soldiers and others were also included in the system, canceled this exit, found a hidden cave in the mountains to the east and set it as an exit, and then returned to Qianhusuo.

Feng Youcai thought, how many times a year to clear the Mongolian tribes here, as long as they dare to graze around again, every time they wipe out, I believe that they will never dare to graze around here in the future, besides, this is not a place with abundant water and grass, and the Mongolians will not fight desperately with themselves for this broken place. It became a buffer zone between their own territory and the Mongol tribes.
