It's a busy autumn and a harvest season.

This year's climate is exceptionally good, the sunshine is sufficient, it will not be warm or cold, there are no floods and hail, the wind and rain are smooth, and all tribes have ushered in a bumper harvest.

The various crops in Peach Blossom Garden are growing very well, especially the rice, the yield is amazing, and the production here alone is enough to feed all the people of Chaoge for two years.

After Xia Zhi and his party were exterminated, not only were the tribes overthrown and the materials plundered, but the still living population also became the slaves of Chaoge.

Just after this war, the population of Chaoge officially exceeded 10,000, and Xia Ye also became a 10,000-strong chief.

On the summer solstice, they also managed the farmland and planted crops, and after the defeat, all of them were cheaper in the summer fields, but although they had a lot of grain in reserve, they would not have it next year.

It's too far to send people to farm, and the gains outweigh the losses!

"That's why I want to spare their lives, only collect taxes!"

Xia Ye sighed, why is it so difficult to be a good person?

The seeds that Elena contributed were also harvested, and what surprised Xia Ye the most was that there were potatoes and peppers in it, and as for the tomatoes, they had already been eaten.

Since it was the first year, there were too few seeds, and the natural yield was not much, so Xia Ye tasted it, and after a while, he kept all the seeds.

As long as you wait for three years, these crops can be widely used and eaten by ordinary people.

"This is the last batch!"

Xia Frog personally escorted the convoy and delivered the harvested grain: "Hurry up and check, I still have to go to eat!"

"Don't worry, I'll tell the cook to make you some more!"

Elena quipped.

"Don't bother, I'll just go to the cafeteria and eat!"

Xia Frog doesn't matter, even if it's Chaoge's canteen food, it's extremely delicious.

Crunch!

Several carriages drove in, with wooden cages on them, stuffed with chickens and ducks, and seeing this scene, Xia Frog was a little distressed.

"Aren't they going to be slaughtered?"

Because he often comes to Chaoge, Xia Frog knows that the most important thing in Chaoge is poultry.

"Most of them are male, and a small number of old hens that don't lay eggs very much, and it's a waste of food to raise, so they have to be eliminated!"

Elena explained, a smile on her face, she never dared to imagine that chickens and ducks would have too many conditions to slaughter and clean up.

This is clearly the prosperity of the times!

"It's too extravagant!"

Xia Frog sighed with emotion and decided to add an extra chicken leg today.

"By the way, do you want to raise chickens?"

Elena remembered what Natsuno had told her.

"No, I don't have that much food!"

Xia Frog shook his head, Xia Ye said before that Chaoge was responsible for providing feed, but the distance was too far, and too much manpower and material resources were spent.

"You can raise maggots, if you have time, go to Lu Niang to learn it!"

Elena proposed.

"What does Natsuno want?"

Xia Frog was taken aback, this is the secret of making a fortune, and it will definitely not be handed over to others easily!

"I don't want anything, it's just that the big chief sees that your tribe is developing too slowly and wants to help you!"

Elena explained.

"That's right!"

Xia Frog showed a self-deprecating wry smile, he was so poor, there was no secret treasure worth Xia Ye's coveting, no, there was still the same.

Looking at the departing summer frog, Elena shook her head, this girl was too proud, Xia Ye thought she would take the initiative to ask how to raise chickens, but who knows, an autumn will pass, and people are stunned and don't speak.

"The Great Chief is so generous!"

"Yes, if I were me, I would never be willing to give away the secret recipe!"

"This is the vision and the pattern!"

The female executives have discussed this issue for a long time, and in general, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, because Xia Ye invented Songhua eggs and salted duck eggs, which are two goods that are easy to transport and do not have to worry about breaking.

Xia Ye wants to be a producer and distributor, not just a seller of eggs, to earn a large price difference, that is called Meizizi.

When all the rice and millet were loaded into the granary, and late autumn was coming, Xia Ye finally took the caravan to the capital of Zhao after Zhao Lianyu's third letter urging him to leave quickly.

After a long journey of more than 20 days, Xia Ye stood under the city gate of Handan.

"It's majestic!"

Friday tilted his head and was dumbfounded, the city wall of Handan, twenty-one meters high, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is towering into the sky.

"If you want to take this city, you will have to kill a lot of people!"

Jiaduo gave an evaluation with her professional vision.

The gates are vast and wide, like the mouths of ancient beasts!

A team of guards in bronze armor inspect passing pedestrians and carriages.

Because of the harvest festival, a lot of outsiders have come to Handan recently, so there is often a lot of traffic in front of the city gate, but the order is orderly.

Locals walk through the small door on the right, while out-of-towners line up for inspection.

After waiting for half an hour, it was the turn of the Chaoge caravan.

"When entering the city, you have to pay a poll tax, a knife coin per head, if you have goods, you also have to collect a commodity tax, and livestock must pay a mule and horse tax!"

A long and boring introduction.

Several professionals have already gone to check it out.

"It's so dark!"

Why should he give them money when he was not happy on Friday, and he just entered the city? He hadn't forgotten that he had paid more than 1,000 dollars for the toll alone.

Even if Chaoge is rich, he can't be so bad.

"I knew I wouldn't come a long time ago, and I didn't have a good impression of this Handan at all. ”

Woad angry.

"Hey, it's okay to be dissatisfied, complain quietly!"

He scolded and stared at Friday, "Do you not exist for me?" And what the hell is this wild man? Isn't he a slave? Why does he look like a caravan leader? And the tribal language is very slippery!

Even the long looked at the caravan without a trace, the one wearing the blindfold was obviously the owner, but it didn't matter, he didn't wear a family emblem, he didn't hang a flag, he looked like he came from a small tribe, so he didn't care, so he could ask for more taxes.

"Wait, what's going on with these alien women?"

Shi Chang frowned.

"Look, those two chicks have so big breasts!"

"yes, bigger than papaya!"

"I really want to rub it!"

The guards muttered, and their eyes almost fell on Izumi Miko and Rem, because they were not only beautiful, but also had big breasts.

"Chief, come and see!"

The guard in charge of inspecting the goods had a solemn face and reported to the chief.

"What's wrong?"

Shi Chang sniffed and looked at Xia Ye, this person really has no emotional intelligence at all, it's all at this time, why don't you stuff some red envelopes, I want to give you accommodation, there is no excuse.

"It's all goods I don't know!"

The guards looked confused, Songhua eggs and salted duck eggs, the names should be some kind of poultry eggs, but the number is too much.

"How many years have you been saving, just waiting for the harvest festival to make a lot of money, right?"

Looking at the several carriages covered with thick thatch and stuffed with eggs, Shi Chang was speechless, the number was at least thousands.

"Soap?"

Shi Chang picked up another wooden box and tried to open it, but was stopped by Friday.

"Don't move at the end, it's for your nobles!"

"How expensive is it?"

Shi Chang snorted, but did not make a rash move, but walked to another carriage.

"There's a blank slate!"

Guards report.

"Open!"

Shi Chang ordered.

"They won't let it!"

The guards sneered, these dirt buns have really never been seen on the market, do you think you can avoid inspection by saying a random name?

"You regret it now, and you can't rush it!"

Shi Chang entered the sentry next to the city gate and went to report to the city guard, and soon, the city guard walked out with a pair of eyelids that had not yet woken up.

"Whose cargo are you?"

The city guard asked.

"Homemade!"

Answered on Friday.

The city guard's face turned pale, and he snatched the whip from the guard's hand and whipped it fiercely towards Friday.

Swish!

Jiaduo draws his sword.

The whip was hanged.

"Enemy attack!"

Shi Chang immediately shouted, and the guards were wound with bows and crossbows, swords and guns unsheathed, and surrounded them, and even the crossbow carts behind the city gate were aimed at Xia Ye and his party.

"How daring, dare to draw a sword at me!"

The city guard was furious.

"You did it first!"

Woad retorted.

"A wild man is also worthy to talk to me? I didn't cut off his head on the spot, it's already merciful!"

The city defense officer felt that Xia Ye was humiliating himself by letting a wild man talk to him.

"Beheading, you can try!"

Xia Ye sneered.

"Huh, are you threatening our chief?"

Shi Changle and sneered.

"You don't know which small tribe you came from, look up, open your eyes wide, this is Handan, the capital of Zhao State, a big tribe with a population of one million!"

"Who do you say is Dog's Eye?"

Woad was angry.

The female warriors surrounded her, trying to protect Natsuno, but he pushed them away.

At this time, the big chief naturally wants to stand up.

"Hey, you're very bold!"

The city defense officer and his entourage admired Xia Ye's courage.

Because of this unexpected conflict, many people gathered to watch, and the caravan behind was also blocked.

"It's not worth it to surround a wild man and start a conflict, right?"

"This kid is brainless!"

"Too young to know what to do. ”

The onlookers are not optimistic about Xia Ye, even if you cross the river dragon and come to Handan, you have to coil it.

"Okay, I'm too lazy to bother with you, 50,000 knife coins, take it out, go into the city, or get out!"

The city defense officer offered a price, he just asked, 'Whose goods are this', it is a customary black word, those caravans of big clans know that Xia Ye can't answer, plus the temptation of Shichang, let him be sure that this caravan is a small tribe to try their luck and want to make a lot of money.

Every year, such caravans were not uncommon, so he opened his mouth widely.

"Hey, 50,000 knife coins, Chief Zhao is really black!"

Not to mention the onlookers, even the guards felt that the chief bit too black, this was not eating meat, but to swallow the other party whole.

"Your Zhao Kingdom's taxes are really heavy!"

Xia Ye smirked.

"If you can't pay it, just get out!"

The city defense officer clasped his hands to his chest, so he could take a moment, waiting for Xia Ye to beg himself in a low voice.

"Inferior people don't deserve to enter the main city!"

Shi Chang's tone was full of condescension, no way, surnamed Zhao, that is, confidence.

"Jiaduo, take the money and give it to him!"

Xia Ye didn't want to be watched and be embarrassed for nothing.

"Humph!"

Jiaduo moved a box and threw it at Chief Zhang's feet.
