Lin Qiao'er didn't understand the meaning of these two stones, but Liu Ziqiu said this, so she followed Liu Ziqiu's words and asked, "What is missing?"

"For the lack of people, there is a lack of people who turn ore into pig iron," Liu Ziqiu slapped his face violently, as if answering Lin Qiaoer, and as if he was talking to himself

As an ace special soldier, Liu Ziqiu has the right to transform guns and daggers and other cold weapons by himself, and after four years of military career, Liu Ziqiu not only learned various killing techniques, but also skillfully used various machine tools, and he even learned jīng secret casting, but only could not smelt iron ore into iron

Lin Qiao'er saw the anxiety on Liu Ziqiu's face and blurted out: "Didn't you say that Lord He is a talent, King?"

Because He Chou had made Ruyi Che, Fan Lihua hated him deeply, if it weren't for Liu Ziqiu, considering that he was a person who made machinery, he would have been executed a long time ago, Liu Ziqiu also asked He Chou, He Chou claimed to be able to refine pig iron and iron, but today he was too excited, and he actually forgot about this stubble, and after Lin Qiao'er reminded him, Liu Ziqiu suddenly realized, nodded again and again: "I'll leave this matter to He Chou, Qiao'er, thank you for reminding me, I want to reward you well."

Lin Qiao'er winked playfully and said, "What reward does the king want to give to the slave?"

If it was before, Lin Qiaoer would definitely not dare to talk to Liu Ziqiu like this, and now she took the initiative to make a joke, it means that she has let go of her heart knot and said goodbye completely, Liu Ziqiu was also very pleased in the past, took Lin Qiaoer into her arms, attached it to her ear, and whispered: "I want you tonight"

Lin Qiao'er waited for this sentence for a long time, but when she really heard it, she was a little flustered and shirked: "My lord, I'll let people invite Lord He."

Since that night when he was drunk, Liu Ziqiu has figured out a lot of things, and several maids have been added to the palace, all of whom are young and beautiful Xianbei girls, most of whom are fair-skinned Xianbei women, tall and plump, so in the Great Sui Dynasty, many people with status and status like to raise Xianbei concubines, called white slaves, Liu Ziqiu raised a few Xianbei women at home, of course, not for his own pleasure, but to take care of Lin Qiaoer's mother and son, Liu Ziqiu is still quite machismo, since he is ready to accept Lin Qiaoer as his own woman, he will not let Lin Qiaoer continue to do rough work

"Don't worry, let He Hou come over tomorrow, I want you now" Liu Ziqiu is not only machismo, but also very domineering, he does not allow Lin Qiao'er to dodge at all, bows his head and kisses it, one hand has already untied Lin Qiao'er's clothes, and the room is boundless for a while

Half an hour later, Lin Qiao'er's body shook violently, her white skin became crimson, and Liu Ziqiu's movements became faster and faster, accompanied by a low roar, and the two hugged each other tightly without speaking

Lin Qiao'er closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, silently recalling the taste just now, she never thought that doing this kind of thing would have such a comfortable feeling, in the past four years, Lin Qiaoer has experienced many men, but these men have only brought her only forced and humiliated, and she has never had a pleasant feeling, this is the first time she has been satisfied, from psychological to ** satisfaction

Liu Ziqiu's shadow appeared in front of his eyes, and his voice, voice, and smile were so clear, which made him feel a little guilty in his heart

Suddenly, there was a sound of gentle footsteps outside the door, a crisp female voice came in through the crack in the door, Lin Qiao'er opened her eyes, casually agreed to two words, and the footsteps gradually walked away, they were talking Xianbei words, Liu Ziqiu didn't understand, and asked softly: "There's something outside."

Lin Qiao'er smiled: "It's Xiaolian, she came to say that dinner is ready"

Xiaolian is also one of those Xianbei girls, this Chinese name was given to her by Lin Qiaoer, Lin Qiaoer took this name and had another meaning, in fact, she wanted to hint to Liu Ziqiu that although her body was contaminated with mud, her heart was still as pure as a lotus, and she was elected to the government with the appearance of a Xianbei girl. Seeing Lin Qiaoer and Liu Ziqiu close the door, Xiaolian understood what they were doing, but Xiaolian didn't dare to stay away, and she kept standing outside the door and listening, until there was no movement in the middle of the night, she didn't ask each other, in fact, dinner had already been prepared

It's okay not to mention dinner, but Liu Ziqiu really felt hungry in his belly, but the Xianbei words that Lin Qiao'er and Xiaolian said made him think of another thing: Xihai County is composed of many different tribes, each with its own language and living habits, even in the Tuyuhun period established by Murong Fuyun, it can't be called a real country, at most, it can only be counted as a tribal alliance, if he wants to enter the Central Plains, he must have a strong backing, the tribal alliance is obviously not, in addition to the establishment of a standing army, such a military means must also be through cultural transmission, Xihai County into a whole

The men, women and children of various tribes were busy grazing horses and sheep, and were busy fighting for better pastures, which made Liu Ziqiu think of establishing a standing army; During the outing, he accidentally discovered coal, which made Liu Ziqiu feel the possibility of obtaining high-quality steel; A short Xianbei dialogue made Liu Ziqiu discover the importance of promoting culture, many things are actually only in a thought, and the key to whether you can grasp it lies in whether you have ulterior not

……

On the evening of the same day, in the courtyard of the Liu family in Changshan Village, Gao Xiu'er, Li Jing, Wei Zheng, Hua Yun and Xiao Dapeng gathered in the hall, some of these people were in Yuhang, some were in Yanguan, and some were in Changshan

After everyone sat down, Wei Zheng looked at Li Jing, and Li Jing was not humble and said: "I just received a letter from the Xie family, from today onwards, they will only bear the food and salary of the 1,000 soldiers stationed in Moling, and will not provide other support to Changshan Village, what do you think about this?"

Xiao Dapeng secretly glanced at Gao Xiu'er and said indifferently: "What's the big deal about the Xie family, without their support, our Changshan Village is still thriving."

Hua Yun frowned and said, "Without the support of the Xie family, Yingyang Mansion can't afford to raise the extra two thousand people."

Xiao Dapeng never had a good impression of Hua Yun, and snorted coldly: "If you can't raise it, don't raise it, what's the big deal?"

Wei Zheng looked up at everyone and asked, "What is your opinion?"

Gao Xiu'er didn't speak, just shook her head slightly, and Hua Yun sighed helplessly

Li Jing said with regret on his face: "In this case, the two thousand soldiers have only one way to be dismissed."

In Changshan Village, Hua Yun and Xiao Dapeng each have a force, Xiao Dapeng is in charge of Changshan Carriage and Horse Travel, Hua Yun is in control of two thousand government soldiers, and some of the guys in Changshan Carriage and Horse Traveling are also government soldiers, so the strength in the hands of Xiao Dapeng and Hua Yun should not be much different, as for the three thousand private soldiers, they are actually in the hands of Li Jing and Wei Zheng, this is the power that really belongs to Changshan Village, and now they have been begged for a thousand people by the Xie family, and the remaining two thousand people are even more important

Although these two thousand soldiers and horses are not under the direct command of Hua Yun, they are also the men and horses of the second brother Liu Ziqiu, and now they are forced to be dismissed because they have no money, which makes Hua Yun feel bad, and got up and said: "Then what else is there to discuss, Hua Mou said goodbye first."

Looking at the back of Hua Yun leaving in a hurry, Xiao Dapeng was slightly smug and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, Brother Li, there is still something to do, and I will leave first."

In fact, everything is running normally, but Xiao Dapeng has been coveting Gao Xiuer's beauty, but he can't get it, so he asked someone to get two beauties from Jiangdu, and he was in a hurry to go back and enjoy the chat.

As soon as Hua Yun and Xiao Dapeng left, only Gao Xiu'er, Li Jing and Wei Zheng were left in the hall

Gao Xiu'er said at this time: "Brother Li, Mr. Wei, according to you, do you have any problems with Brother Hua and Brother Xiao?"

Wei Zheng thought for a while and said: "Hua Yun has always been loyal to the imperial court, but he is willing to raise three thousand private soldiers in the name of Yingyang Mansion for the sake of the lord, and he should be able to fight for it, but Xiao Dapeng's attitude I always feel that it is not right."

Liu Ziqiu wanted to take advantage of the chaos in the world to start a new secret, only Gao Xiu'er, Li Jing and Wei Zheng knew that many important matters were discussed privately by the three of them, and there was no need to invite Hua Yun and Xiao Dapeng to discuss together, but Changshan Village has always received the support of the Xie family, which is something that several of them know, and now the Xie family has stopped aiding, according to common sense, these two thousand people and horses can't be saved, and there is no reason to hide it from the two of them

What's more, the north has been in turmoil, and the war may spread to the south of the Yangtze River at any time, at this time, soldiers and horses are indispensable, with enough soldiers and horses to retreat, they can protect themselves, they can chase the Central Plains, Wei Zheng, Li Jing are all smart people, naturally they refuse to let go of this great opportunity, they have already discussed with Gao Xiu'er, not only will they not give up these two thousand men and horses, but they will also try to expand the scale, and now Hua Yun is unwilling to give up these two thousand soldiers and horses, but Xiao Dapeng doesn't care, who is public and who is private, it can be seen at a glance

Li Jing also nodded and said: "What happened when they came over, my brother and sister should still remember Xiao Dapeng's bad conduct, and Li felt that he was no longer suitable to be the chief treasurer of Changshan Carriage and Horse Company."

Thinking that when he was exiled to Changshan Village, the second uncle Xiao Xin took a lot of care of himself, Gao Xiu'er was a little soft-hearted, shook his head and said: "Forget it, Xiao Dapeng is young after all, it is inevitable that there will be some out-of-the-ordinary moves, and if we give him another chance, let's discuss first, to keep the two thousand men and horses, and even continue to expand the army, where will the food and salary come from."
