Early the next morning, Bai Qianye and the others got out of the carriage to bury the pot to cook, a kind of woman had already eaten enough dry food, and finally could eat a good meal, seeing this situation, Jiang Shan smiled slightly, didn't say anything, but turned away. m.
After a while, Jiang Shan came back with more than a dozen wild meats of all sizes in his hands, and Yeji was drooling when he saw it.
"Childe, look at your craftsmanship", Ye Ji looked at Bai Qianye pitifully, Bai Qianye also smiled helplessly a few times, then set up two fires with Qin Qiong and began to barbecue.
"Everyone, it's so elegant", the mercenary captain came over with a few people, and when he saw the barbecue pile, his brows furrowed, "Childe, shouldn't we be on the road?"
Bai Qianye smiled and handed the mercenary captain a chicken leg, "Don't worry, anyway, we are the employer, we will give you commissions on a daily basis, and we won't miss you, don't worry, my friends around me suddenly feel that the environment here is good, and they were in a hurry a few days ago, and they all ate dry food, and there was no oil and water in their stomachs last night, so it was very difficult to fall asleep, and I must eat something good this morning, no way." ”
The mercenary captain was stunned, and when he saw the two people on the side, Ye Ji and Ji Xingkong, who were dealing with the rabbit legs in their hands, smiled bitterly, and then sat down cross-legged first.
"I don't know where our crescent caravan has traveled before, I don't think I've heard of your caravan before. ”
Qin Qiong replied casually, "We, we were the caravan of the Great Song Dynasty before, and it was a small caravan, and it was not a big family, or it was not even a second-rate family of the Great Song Dynasty, so we could barely eat together." ”
"However, our son's popularity is really good, and he has a lot of friends to help, so he is still living a peaceful life. ”
"Not long ago, there have been rumors on the mainland that the war between the East and the West is about to start again, our son thought, if this is a war, what is the most valuable?"
The mercenary captain frowned, "What is worth?"
"You still need to ask", Qin Qiong pursed her lips, "It must be food and weapons and equipment, these two things are the most valuable." ”
In normal times, because there is no war, some works of art, clothing, fabrics and the like are high-priced goods, but once a war starts, only food and weapons and equipment are hard currency, and nothing else works. ”
"So, our son is popular, and he also has some friends in Daqin, so he is going to do this kind of business, this is also the first time to do business from Daqin to Dahan, and I have observed you in the mercenary union for several days, and found that your strength and reputation are good, so Gongzi also plans to hire you." ”
The mercenary captain looked grim, clasped his hands into fists, and nodded to Bai Qianye, "Then I still have to thank Gongzi for his trust." ”
Bai Qianye smiled slightly, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." ”
The mercenary captain looked back at the three carriages, "I don't know if it's convenient or not, can Childe reveal whether these three truckloads of goods are food or weapons and equipment?"
Qin Qiong's expression was grim, his brows furrowed, and he was about to speak, but Bai Qianye smiled, "Weapons and equipment, the weapons and equipment of the three major trucks, are all new combat equipment of the main force of the first line of Great Qin, but it is not fully equipped yet, I bought it through a friend's relationship, and it is not worth much." ”
The mercenary captain nodded, "If it's weapons and equipment, and it's a big road commodity with this kind of common equipment, it's really not worth much." ”
"That's right, it's a loss of money to go on such a trip", Bai Qianye had a bitter face, "If I didn't go to Dahan and get a lot of food, I wouldn't be able to go this time, that is, I didn't want to run empty, so I got some weapons and equipment, and as long as I can earn back the travel expenses in Dahan, I will be satisfied." ”
"Haha", the mercenary captain laughed a few times, "Childe is a very good business acumen, and the idea of trading weapons and grain between Daqin and Dahan is really very good." ”
"That's right", after Bai Qianye handed the mercenary captain a chicken leg, he asked casually, "Big brother captain, this is the first time we have taken the trade route between Daqin and Dahan, and this Yingtian City will also be a place where we will often pass by in the future, can you introduce us to this Yingtian City, it is best to tell us some unspoken rules, otherwise you will accidentally violate it one day and cause trouble,
We ourselves are confused and don't know what went wrong. ”
The mercenary captain's brows furrowed, he blinked, and sighed softly, "Actually, Childe has already violated the biggest unspoken rule of Yingtian City by ordering not to enter the city yesterday." ”
Bai Qianye's eyebrows raised, "Oh? Then let's ask the captain's eldest brother to tell us about it, and we will remember it in the future, right?"
Qin Qiong and Mei Niang glanced at each other, and they thought in their hearts that they had finally begun to enter the meat drama.
Bai Yiyi and Ji Xingchan and others dressed as men with makeup, it is really difficult to speak at this time, after all, the mercenary captain is an old fritter and has rich experience, don't be caught dressing as a man, this is troublesome. But everyone smiled slightly in their hearts, no matter whether what the captain said was true or false, it was finally about to start.
No matter what happens, the most feared thing is to keep silent and not speak, as long as you speak, whether it is true or not, you can always see a lot of clues.
"Let me introduce Yingtian City to Gongzi first", the mercenary captain paused, thought for a while and said, "The Yingtian City that we can see now is actually rebuilt later, and the earliest Yingtian City was destroyed many years ago. ”
"Defeated?" Qin Qiong asked in surprise, "Such a majestic city has been defeated?"
The mercenary captain nodded, "It seems that you are indeed from the Great Song Dynasty, and you don't even know the history of Great Qin." At the beginning of the founding of the Great Qin, the territory was snatched from the Han Dynasty, and of course the Han did not allow it, so in the years that followed, there were many major wars between the two countries, both openly and secretly. ”
"These are also one of the few countries that often fight in the Eastern Alliance, so in this constant military competition, these two countries have significantly improved their military strength and are the first in the Eastern Alliance. ”
"After the end of a war between the East and the West a long time ago, when all countries were about to take a breath, the Great Han actually launched a blitzkrieg against Great Qin. ”
At that time, Daqin didn't expect that the Great Han would attack him at this time, and the whole country was preparing to recuperate, so it could only turn to a comprehensive defense after the surprise attack of the Great Han. ”
