Section 28 Seven Rank Official Horse Week

Is there really a lot of food in Datang that you can't eat it all? Ma Zhou never thought so, he sat in the camp and calculated the amount of grain entering the grassland, and the amount of grain that entered the grassland happened to be almost the same as the yield of barley grown by the herdsmen themselves, which required extreme depth into the lives of the herdsmen to arrive at the most accurate figures.

In the past few years of coming to Yinshan, his time has not been wasted, from the beginning of living like a walking corpse to later starting to cheer up, this time is not long, Chang'an's reckless behavior almost sent him into the eighteenth layer of hell, if it were not for a long letter from Mr. Yun Ye, Ma Zhou just wanted to live like a wild man, and never return to Chang'an in this life.

I don't understand why I degenerated from a hero who asked for the people's lives to a filthy person who betrayed his teachers and friends in an instant, Ma Zhou asked himself, he didn't have those evil thoughts in his heart, why did everyone say that he was wrong?

Land annexation has been a cancer on the dynasty since ancient times, why can't it be touched? The rich get richer, the poor want to be poor, even if the Tang Dynasty is the fish of the Northern Underworld, it will one day be carved up by those nobles, don't get rid of the moths, and want to fly 90,000 miles? Dream on!

Mr. Li Gang, Mr. Yuan Zhang, Mr. Yushan, Mr. Lishi, Mr. Yun Ye, you are all wise among people, how can these crises escape your eyes, why do you keep your mouth shut?

Mr. Yun Ye wants to expand the territory to satisfy the desire of the people of the Tang Dynasty for land, this is to quench their thirst, why doesn't the wise gentleman understand?

Ma Zhou thought that before he walked out of Chang'an, he had a crown full of Jinghua, and the noble sentiment of the people was alone and haggard, but he did not expect that in the past few years in Mobei, the noble sentiment was quickly overwhelmed by busy things, and he did not participate in the military when he joined the army, and he had 7,000 herdsmen under his jurisdiction. How difficult it is to bring all of them under the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

Today, Ma Zhou does not have a knife in his hand, so there is no deterrent effect on those herdsmen, and this is a place that worships force. In many cases, he has little to do with the herders.

After reading the sage books for many years, he hated killing and brutality very much, and wanted to use the sages to influence the herdsmen, but he didn't want to recall the final result.

Fortunately, he is still smart, and he can't convince these people by force, so he uses wisdom to impress them, fortunately, it has some effect, but when wisdom turns into naked deception, it makes Ma Zhou sleep.

The tent is not good. It is too cold in winter, it is better to build a house with mud and grass, so that in winter it will not be frozen to death, wool is useless, just take scissors and cut it, make a roll, give it to the merchant, and you can exchange it for some grain and linen back. Spirits are a good thing and a hassle to make. So it's very expensive, good things are generally very expensive, one cow can be exchanged for one jar, the court is merciful, two cows can be exchanged for three jars, or it is better to trade with the imperial court......

Ma Zhou soon became the most popular man on the grassland. Because he can always take the waste that the herdsmen don't want to give them back food, cloth, salt, iron pots, wool, shear the sheep and grow them back. It was the sheared sheep, the whole body was red and ugly, the horns, the tendons, the horsetail, those merchants wanted to die, the herdsmen didn't know what these things were for, but Ma Zhou knew, so he firmly believed that he would go to hell one day.

This year is good, the tower under the Yin Mountain, Mobu, finally will no longer plant barley, and start to raise sheep with all their might, very good, Ma Zhou took a red pen and crossed out these two tribes on the map, and there is no longer a threat to the tribe, just a flock of sheep.

Ma Zhou's brows suddenly furrowed, why was there a cry from the little junior sister outside? Who can bear to make her cry with such a baby bump? Pushing away the paperwork on the table, Ma Zhou came out of the tent, only to see Lao Sun hugging the little sister and comforting him, but the little sister was crying unrelentingly, and her voice was very sharp.

"Mr. Sun, the little junior sister has always been well-behaved and never cries, why are you crying so sadly today?" Ma Zhou didn't ask if it was okay, but when he asked, Yun Du cried even more miserably, and stretched out his little hand to Ma Zhou to hug him, not Lao Sun to hug her.

Taking Yun Du from the helpless old grandson, he saw that her white little face was covered with tears, this was really sad, listening to her keep calling Daddy, Ma Zhou's heart was full of sourness.

Lao Sun told Ma Zhou about the cause and effect, and immediately blew him up, the little junior sister is not messing around, but doing business, the noble daughter of the Tang Dynasty, asking for two cheap slaves would be so humiliated, it is really unreasonable.

"Lao Fu, Lao Lu, you guys, go to the Aries Department, the Black Sheep Department, and the heads of the Sanhua Department and call me over, I want to see how many heads they have and dare to humiliate Twilight like this."

Lao Sun didn't have time to persuade, so he saw two old servants hurrying to the river to find someone, Ma Zhou hugged Yun Du into the tent, took some cheese for Yun Du to eat, and sat behind the case by himself, waiting for the three leaders who didn't know what to do.

After a while, three Tubo people wearing sheepskin jackets walked in with a smile on their faces, and when they saw Ma Zhou with an angry face, they were stunned for a moment, and then they smiled and saluted Yun Dui, they knew very well who was the most valuable person in this tent.

"Where's the person my little sister wants?" Ma Zhou's voice was slow and deep.

The three Tubo people glanced at each other, very puzzled, and didn't understand what Ma Zhou was saying, so the head of the Sanhua Department asked in a low voice: "I don't know who the little lady wants?" ”

"Do you remember how many big dogs you gave my little sister the year before last?" Ma Zhou is also very strange, looking at the appearance of the three people, he doesn't seem to know, isn't it these three?

"Remember, remember, I don't know if the little lady is still happy, if you like it, I'll send someone to send some more." The head of the Sanhua Department was very proud, he only gave eight big dogs, but he didn't expect Mrs. to give back three jars of spirits, and five iron pots, although there is no shortage of this thing in the tribe, but now as long as he works here, he can always be courteous, he cares about this the most.

"The little lady wants Danzhu's wife and children, you can send them over, do you know that there are still those Tubo people on this day?" Ma Zhou is very sure that it must not be these three people who make the little junior sister cry, because as a familiar person who has dealt with Datang all the year round, he clearly knows which people in this land cannot be messed with, and naturally he will not offend the little junior sister for the sake of two cheap slaves.

The head of the Aries Department said: "A few days ago, a large group of people came down from the snow field, they came from Tuyuhun, all of them were samurai, and just now someone asked me who gave the big dog to a little girl, it was very vicious, Sanhua was not there, I said I didn't know, they asked when they saw the Tubo people, I was about to report this matter to the army lord, but I didn't expect you to ask." ”

Looking at these flattering Tubo people, Ma Zhou felt proud from the bottom of his heart, these people are the result of his efforts in the past three years, they are all unruly heroes, and in just three years, they have been trained by the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty into what they are now.

The war between the Dongnu tribe, the Yangtong tribe and the Songtsen Gampo continued, and these original Tubo nobles could only flee in all directions, avoiding the war, and they didn't know what benefits they gave Jieli back then, but they actually agreed to settle down in the grassland, and now the Tang Dynasty has become the owner of this land, and naturally needs to re-take refuge in the Tang Dynasty, which is more docile than the Turks on the grassland.

A large group of Tibetans is coming? Ma Zhou didn't laugh, he was a group of poor people who had come to escape the war, and it seemed that he needed to consider whether to take in these new Tibetans.

"Ma joined the army, no, the person the little lady saw was definitely not an ordinary person, Lao Sun and I are also a person who has seen the world, I can be sure that that person is a big nobleman and a noble man with extraordinary skills."

"The nobleman?" Ma Zhou looked up at Lao Sun, and then at the Sanhua Department who nodded frantically in agreement, and handed Yun Du to Lao Sun, he was going to see what kind of person could make Lao Sun, who was accustomed to seeing nobles, so evaluated.

Lu Dongzan is completely unclear now, what is Datang doing here? Let all the Turks in the steppes go to graze? That's what they've been doing for generations, is it really okay to provide food without restrictions?

Jiannan's tribe got food, which proved that their ability to resist disasters was stronger, this belongs to the enemy, his thoughts just now were really ridiculous, and he thought of countless ways to make Datang suffer dumb losses in an instant.

Smart people always think more than others, the emperor of the Tang State is a wise and martial emperor, not an incompetent person, what he can think of, he must also be able to think of it, seeing the countless goods in the Nai Ri market, he is really a little confused.

One after another may have been overturned by him one by one, but he didn't expect that on the first day he met the Tang people, he encountered such a problem, which aroused the arrogance in his chest, and the idea of going to Chang'an to see it became stronger and stronger.

"Who are you? Of that tribe? Why are you here? A very rude voice came. Lu Dongzan was a little displeased, this kind of condescending tone, Songtsen Gampo would not use it for himself.

In front of him was an official, Tang Guo's, Lu Dongzan looked at his green robe, stretched out a hand and naturally pulled Ma Zhoupao aside, continued to look at the linen cloth on this stall, stretched it out with his hand, and even counted the warp lines on the linen, fifty-seven pieces of linen cloth per inch are the best linen, and there are only forty-five of these linen cloths, which are not good goods.

"I am determined to join the army, Ma Zhou, dare to ask who your Excellency is? Don't make mistakes. ”

Lu Dongzan said with a smile: "Go and inform Hou Gong, the head of the Dingxiang Army, and say that the Tubo Great Minister Gar and Dongzan Yusong are ordered by Tubo Zanpu and Songtsan Gampo to go to Chang'an of the Tang Dynasty to meet His Majesty the Tang Emperor." ”

"I must have documents to enter me, this is the law of the Tang Dynasty, how can you be an exception to the Tubo Minister?"

"You're a magistrate?"

"Exactly!"

'How many official positions are there?' “

"Seven pins!"

"The little officials dare to stop the prime minister from asking for official documents?"

"Stop you, Jiupin is enough, I am the lowest official here, I can only come to inspect it in person, which is already exceptional!" (To be continued......)
