When Ximen Wangfu selected ten large boxes full of the captured loot and entrusted Xue Zilong to present them to the Hou Ye's Mansion, Xiao Ye was in the backyard of the Jin family's shop in Gujiabao, enjoying Jin Sanniang's service.

The Tile Thorn tribe was directly defeated, and the tribes scattered on the grassland fell to the wind, and also sent Xiao Ye a large amount of precious raw materials, which surprised him very much.

Nearly 100,000 captives, this number is enough to make Xiao Ye unable to sleep, so he was sent to the "little black house" by Ximen Wangfu, and the total number of men, women, and children under his own command is less than 30,000.

Of course, Xiao Ye knew that this was the custom on the grassland, if it weren't for the fact that a large number of Tile Thorn people had surrendered to the tent of the elders under Ximen Wangfu, he could be sure that on the grassland to the west, Ximen Wangfu would not have left a single Tile Thorn tribe.

The Mongols on the grassland dealt with the internal fighting, Xiao Ye didn't want to pay attention to it, and he didn't bother to pay attention to it, in his opinion, except for the Yi tribe other than the Ming Dynasty, what does it matter to him whether he lives or dies, it is best to be like cattle and sheep, and continue to provide him with raw materials for pills.

For cattle and sheep, will people who want to eat meat have mercy, no kidding. If it weren't for the feelings of his subordinates, his indifferent eyes would have been aimed at Gansu Town.

The junior powerful pills that were used to control the commanders and even chiefs of those border barracks were quickly distributed, and they could also improve the combat power of these soldiers, killing two birds with one stone.

The main raw materials are available, plus the herbs trafficked by the merchants, the precious Dingyan Pill, he doesn't mind giving it to Jin Sanniang and Xiaomei, and as a result, he gets a greasy flattery from a master and a servant.

In the early morning, in the warm bedroom, the two fine naked bodies in the bed of the fire kang were attached together, Jin Sanniang lay on Xiao Ye's body with a pink face, enjoying the throbbing of the two together, and the cherry hummed softly in her little mouth, trying to provoke the thunder fire of this little man again.

Xiaomei was tossed apart by Xiao Ye last night, and now she is still sleeping with her head covered on the kang opposite, only Jin Sanniang's resistance is stronger, and after resting for half a night, she once again stuck to her husband.

There is a way that the fragrance of flowers is no more than wild chrysanthemum, Xiao Ye, who has taken strong pills again and again, is now not only physically strong and terrifying, but even that little Xiao Ye has grown up completely, and the combat power on the bed sheet made him leave the Hou Ye's Mansion to go out for military affairs, and the three women in the Hou Mansion all breathed a long sigh of relief, hoping that he could stay here with Jin Sanniang for two more days and be defeated.

Of course, after a long time, the women will be bored, and Xiao Ye asked himself if he would not let the backyard catch fire.

"Xiao Lang," the murmured hint made Xiao Ye have to open his eyes, hug the woman with silky skin, and plug his big mouth hard.

Lu Nianshan was ambushed, Jiang Jie was cut off, how was the town of Gansu shaken and panicked, Xiao Ye was not in the mood to look at that kind of intelligence, that is, the more than 1,000 border soldiers brought back by Yang 18, which made him happy for a while, there were more than 300 gunners in it, which just supplemented Hao Yongliang's artillery team.

The handling of the latter hand, that is, the families of these border soldiers are slowly transferred, which needs to be handled by Wang Ziliang.

The only bad thing was the news that Yang Eighteen brought back, which made Xiao Ye speechless, and his subordinates directly injured and released the foreign affairs deacon of Ning Wangfu, and cut Jiang Jie without concealment.

There are a lot of lice on the body, and that's it.

Fortunately, this is the grassland, and there is Ximen Wangfu in front of the top tank, even if the prince wants to retaliate, he has to be careful, Xiao Ye is not afraid of those assassin killers, and the soldiers in the guards are all over-spirited.

Half an hour later, with Jin Sanniang humming coquettishly, Xiao Ye once again relaxed his body, lay on the kang and let Sanniang wipe his sweat stains with a towel, and lazily closed his eyes to rest.

"Hey, it's almost noon, you haven't gotten up yet, those guards outside are all laughing," Wearing a short silk shirt, Jin Sanniang was tired, and while carefully wiping the embarrassing part, she urged Xiao Ye to get up, she made up for sleep beautifully.

She already knew the five kinds of pills in Xiao Ye's hand, but taking out any of them could set off the madness of the merchants, and it would also attract greed within the side wall, but she heard Ai Lang say that the raw materials were complicated and the preparation was not easy, so she also dispelled the idea of selling them out.

As long as she can get a little bit for her own family, her status in the family, I'm afraid even Baoliang will have to lift her shoes.

"Well, don't worry, you come with me to the Shi family's shop in the afternoon, there is an auction there, see if your Jin family is interested," snorted quietly, Xiao Ye's big hand touched the concubine's slippery thigh in the quilt.

"Dirty, I'll wash it later," holding Xiao Ye's hand through the quilt, a trace of worry flashed in Jin Sanniang's eyes, and said with a forced smile.

The rain and dew that Xiao Ye gave her from time to time didn't make her stomach react at all, even Xiaomei didn't move, which made Sanniang very depressed, and secretly went to Liu Yi several times, and the Chinese medicine was scared.

"Ah, you said auction? What's the auction? In a flash of thought, Sanniang reacted, threw the towel aside, got into the quilt and lay on Xiao Ye's chest, and her nose almost poked Xiao Ye's eyes.

"You money fan," patting the woman's fat porcelain buttocks, Xiao Ye smiled and pointed to the teapot on the kang platform, and saw the slippery woman get up and pour warm tea and serve it in front of her.

Half leaning on the cushion and drinking tea, Xiao Ye hugged Jin Sanniang and said slowly, "From here to the north, every two hundred miles, the logistics team is building a stone fort, which is a little smaller, and it can accommodate a hundred young craftsmen and a hundred sergeants,"

"There are five small stone forts, and the farthest is the Zabkhan River, which used to be the territory of the Vaspurs,"

"In these small stone forts, there will be a mill, in which the stone mill and the stone castle will be sold, and the merchant will win the highest bid,"

Seeing that Jin Sanniang was not very interested, Xiao Ye continued, "Where these stone forts are built, there are ore veins not far away, and the prospecting team has already explored them, otherwise I wouldn't have built the stone forts in vain,"

These words made Jin Sanniang's eyes widen suddenly, "Xiao Lang, can my Jin family buy it?" How many can you buy? ”

"Of course, a powerful businessman, my Hou Yefu is happy to save trouble, and it is best to trade in kind," with Xiao Ye's nod, Jin Sanniang couldn't lie down, called Xiaomei, got up in his clothes and pulled Xiao Ye to take a bath in the outhouse, and the beauty plan was also constantly staged.

Ximen Stone Fort, on the southernmost hill of the fort wall, which is known as Hou Ye Stone Fort, a team of black-clothed guards patrolled staggeredly, leading to the top of the big slope leading to the entrance, eleven guards were like wooden stakes and pestles there, only sharp eyes swept around.

The inner fort under the mountain is basically completed, and compared with the two outer forts that have not yet been completed, there are not many people in the inner fort, but the sergeants patrolling back and forth inside are continuous.

In the courtyard of the official room, Xin Rulin was sitting with a few stewards, drinking bitter tea and discussing a matter, which made them very distressed, and even in the courtyard next door, the intermittent sound of leather whips in the military law room was not bothered.

By the Spring Festival, the merchants sent various gifts to Hou Ye, and the official room will give corresponding gifts according to the price, which are basically items of equivalent value, but now they have more than a dozen young women who are smart.

A woman who can write and draw, or can play and sing, looks like a first-class person, which is very uncommon here, if you want to say that the Hou Ye ordered to deal with it, it must have been snatched up by the officers, and exchanged it with military merit and capital; However, Xin Rulin and they were disappointed.

These so-called Yangzhou thin horses, with their small feet, directly made those officers of all ranks who were looking forward to marrying stunning beauties give in and politely refused the kindness of the official room.

"No, just send it down one by one according to the merit book, and see if they dare to resist the kindness of the Hou Ye," a steward put forward a bad idea.

"That's okay, you take one back first, pay the money to choose someone, and the credit in the credit book can be owed first," Some people disapprove of this kind of strong approach, and the small-footed woman is not welcomed in the northwest.

"If you can't do it above the centurion, you can also do it, or the sergeant with military merits will also be summoned, designated from top to bottom, and then report to the Hou Ye to give an extra dowry, it should be okay," the brain-hungry steward hit the sergeant with his idea.

Let the family spend a lot of money to buy a woman first, and then put a bride price on it? His words made everyone speechless. When did the Hou Yefu do loss-making business, first of all, the account office did not nod.

It's evil, and now I don't want to give it to the beauty, it's just, it's a big appetite.

Only Xin Rulin knew in his heart that the rumor that Hou Ye could accumulate to a stone fort according to his military merits had had his own plans since he was implemented on Wang Dali and Yang Shiba, whether it was a thousand commanders or ordinary sergeants.

Who doesn't want to have a good family business when they can't hold knives and guns? Everybody wants to.

"Forget it, don't do this and let outsiders laugh at it," Xin Rulin shook his head, thinking about the scene when Xiao ran to his house at night a few days ago and gave him a beauty, it was a wry smile.

Xiao Ye didn't like the small-footed woman, and he had heard about it for a long time, so it also affected the eyes of his subordinates. But you can't return these women, you still can't throw them away, at least now there are too few people under Hou Ye.

"Slap, slap," the sound of the whip in the military law office next door suddenly aroused Xin Rulin's interest, "That, who is on duty in the military law room this month?" ”

"Oh, it's Centurion Shang'an, I'm going to be transferred to Fort Talon in a few days," said a steward with a grim face, taking out a booklet from a drawer and flipping through it.

"That's right, that's okay, go and invite him over, well, I have something good to look for him," Xin Rulin's eyes lit up, and he put down the teacup with a smile.

In the early spring, when the cold wind gusted, Shang An, who was still wearing a thin military uniform, greeted the guards at the gate of the courtyard, and stepped on his boots and came to the office, "Xin Xiucai, what's the good thing to find me, I'm busy,"

This arrogant guy, only Xin Rulin knows, is a fox general under the Hou Ye's account, he has a very bright brain, and on the surface he does seem to be an honest and responsible hunter, but he has won or lost many times with other guards, and he has a lot of silver tickets in his pocket.

"Hehe, Shang An, hard work, come, sit down and drink a cup of tea first, warm up," smiled and waved his hand, Xin Rulin beckoned Shang An to sit down.

"This, thank you Xin Xiucai," looking at the teacup on the coffee table, Shang An looked at Xin Rulin suspiciously, this Hou Ye's staff, he couldn't afford to provoke but was not afraid, but he didn't know what idea he was branded with.

"What, Xiucai, you still have something to say, I'm stupid, I can't turn around," Junhan didn't want to drink tea with Xiucai, this is a truth since ancient times, Shang An, who was sitting in the chair, felt panicked in his buttocks.

"Well, that's the case," Xin Rulin straightened out his thoughts, "Your military law room, what's going on today?" ”

"Oh, that's the case, it turned out to be Xiucai's ears, blame me, blame me, you must pay attention next time," Shang An, who suddenly realized, laughed, with an apologetic look on his face, but he scolded directly in his stomach.

"No, it's not," Xin Rulin shook his head, "Captain Shang's enforcement of military discipline is also a spur to us, and there is no reason to blame,"

"What did the tortured sergeant do not discipline for?"

"Hey, it's a trivial matter, the soldiers in the Galen barracks, drinking and running outside the knife barracks to make trouble, yes, the centurion who stayed behind with the knife directly sent a soldier to overturn the tartars of the two teams, and now it is estimated that there are still a few lying in the infirmary,"

"According to Hou Ye's military law, if you make trouble for no reason, you will be punished with twenty lashes, fined half a month's salary, and those who are tortured and screamed will be doubled, and the fight is not over," Shang An said indifferently, if he encountered a provocation, even if he carried the whipping and took out the silver, he would have to beat it first, anyway, Hou Ye's never fined food. A few mouthfuls of the family are hungry.

"Centurion? Plus a team of sergeants, twelve people," Xin Rulin's eyes quietly flashed a glimmer of light, and his face sank suddenly, "This whipping is still a little lighter, the existing foreign enemies are around, and the Hou Ye does not dare to slack off when he concentrates on military affairs, and they still dare to drink and make trouble?" ”

Damn, this show is going to stir up trouble.

"What's that, a non-worthy sergeant, not on duty," Shang An chuckled in his heart, and said curtly, if this guy muttered in the ear of the Hou Ye, the big guy's life would not be easy in the future.

"That's it, those twelve people will be fined one hundred taels of silver, and the money is not enough to keep accounts, and they will be deducted in the future," Xin Rulin snorted lightly, "Let them go to the backyard of the Shi family's shop, and each of them will take a woman home, it is better if they don't have a family, so they will get married,"

Oh, my grass, and this good thing, Shang An's face changed a few times, and he suddenly remembered something, and suddenly grinned, laughing badly, "This, this, good, good, just do what Xiucai said, let them have nothing to do, and their subordinates will retire,"

Seeing that Xiucai's face was pale, Shang An hurriedly got up and ran, for fear that Xin Rulin would suddenly change his mind.

"According to the usual practice, each person has a bride price, and let them receive it from the Shi family's shop," a good steward shouted loudly in the back, causing the official room to burst into laughter.

With the continuous war on the grassland, more and more women from various tribes have been sent, and it is easy to pick a woman for the sergeants and craftsmen who want to start a family at the age, and they can line up according to their military merits and ranks, and Xiao Ye will also generously send a dowry, although it is only a few catties of refined salt and a few pieces of cloth, but the human touch in it is unforgettable for every sergeant.

After lunch, the sky was gloomy and the cold wind was howling, but in the living room in the backyard of the Shijia shop, it was already crowded with all kinds of merchants, although there were many people in the living room, there was not a single person who laughed loudly, and they were all talking in a whisper.

The merchant made profits, so they had to be the earliest after receiving the notice, but Xiao Ye walked into this living room almost an hour late.

However, these shrewd businessmen found that after not seeing each other for a few days, the young "Hou Ye" who walked in a tiger's walk had an inexplicable deterrent power when he raised his feet and waved his hand, and a faint pressure spread out in the living room during the walk, enveloping all around.

For this hundred-household officer with more than 8,000 regular troops, and it was on the grassland, the Ming Dynasty could not control it, and the fear in the hearts of the merchants can be imagined, especially his retribution-loving temperament, even if these merchants spoke loudly, no one dared to touch the mold.

On the long kang, Xiao Ye and Jin Sanniang sat next to the window, drinking tea and eating dried fruits and melon seeds, and on the other side sat Li Xunwu, who had a calm face, was lying on the kang table flipping through the account book, and on the wall behind him, there was a big map hanging on it, which marked the specific locations of the five small stone forts.

The shopkeepers of the Liang, Zhai, Wang, Li, and Fan families, as well as Jin Baoliang with a smile on his face, plus they were allowed to bring in a deacon each, almost crowded the small living room.

Sitting on the small chair opposite, if you want to see the faces of Xiao Ye and the three of them, you have to tilt your neck, but despite this, no one feels that they have been faced, but they are all very excited.

The people who can sit here mean that they have entered the eyes of the "Hou Ye", not to mention making a fortune in the future, and the profits of the long stream of water are inevitable.

Wang Gui, the current shopkeeper of the Shi family's shop, likes barter, and even useful information can be exchanged for silk cotton coats, glass and other commercial goods, which makes the businessmen who chase profits not like it.

The shopkeepers of the three shops outside the shop, Huang, Wang, and Tian, but they didn't even let the door in, uh, this Tian family, hehe, it's really hard to say, it depends on the second lady's means.
