Not only him, but the others were basically silent.

Lu Wei glanced at each other with several elders from Xiao Zhong's two families, and finally released a heavy bomb.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if this operation is successful, the city lord will take out half of the spoils and reward them to the soldiers of the three armies. ”

These trophies include the wealth accumulated by Heibozhai over the past few hundred years, the proceeds from the sale of slaves after the war, and nearly 4 million acres of pasture in the Sixteen Plains. ”

"If you feel that you have the ability to operate these pastures, you are allowed to send people to operate them, and if you are unable to do so, the city lord's mansion will sell them with permission. ”

In the past, whether it was to suppress bandits or suppress rebellions, each city lord's mansion would give some loot as a reward, but never half of the proportion.

Most of the people present were stunned for a moment, some people had a greedy look in their eyes, but some people looked at the people of the Xiao family and the Zhong family suspiciously.

An elder of the Xiao family said, "Our Xiao family and the Zhong family will buy the grassland at a fair price. In this operation, our two families will also send many people to help you, and we will not covet any loot. ”

Some people's brains didn't turn around, thinking, will your two families have such good intentions?

Jiang Ning was also stunned for a moment, and then reacted.

The early "kindness" is real.

People did not covet these spoils, but what they gained after the war.

The first is the pasture.

The world's breeding industry and planting industry are also very developed, some people actually breed spirit beasts, and even all kinds of fierce beasts, poisons, and demon beasts, as for the planting industry is even more varied, not only all kinds of elixirs and poisons, only unexpected, nothing can not be done.

However, the ordinary barren people still raise low-IQ cattle, horses and sheep, these livestock will not have a long-term plan, and everywhere they go, they often even eat up the grass roots, so the abundant pastures quickly become deserts, and the various wastelands do not care, and then nomadic to other places. Perhaps after hundreds or thousands of years, some pastures will be restored again, and another barren department will come with a large number of livestock to graze, and after a few decades it will become a desert again...... The wasteland continues to circulate, so that the wasteland is vast and sparsely populated.

This nomadic approach has another consequence.

Often in order to compete for pasture, various desolate tribes constantly launched wars. Of course, the human race is not harmonious, such as the product family system, the slave slave and slave system.

The contradictions and hatred of the desolate race are external, and the human race is internal.

For example, Xia Youliang, he talked to Jiang Ning amiably, but when he reached his realm, there were very few great monks like him. In the wilderness, such scenes are everywhere.

Don't mention the pros and cons of the shortage of people, just talk about the pasture.

After the Heibo people migrated, they were influenced by the human race and changed this nomadic way without control and planning.

They divided the pasture into three major plots, once every three years, grazing in turns, after one year of grazing, two years of rest, the pasture must recover. In fact, this is already a simple way of herding.

When choosing the site of the fort, everyone solemnly considered the influence of the Heibo tribe on the fort, and also went to the edge of their pasture to take a look, and carefully observed it at the junction of the two areas. On one side is a bare mass, on the other side is a long green grass slender vine, faintly there is a smell of wind blowing grass and seeing cattle and sheep.

But it is not the most reasonable and optimal breeding method.

For example, the Dao family is a small family, and even the efficiency of the Daojiabao Ranch is much higher than theirs.

Daojiabao will consciously look for better grass seeds, and gradually improve the grass in that small grassland.

The grazing time is shortened, a large amount of miscellaneous grains and purple reeds are planted, and when they grow tall and strong, they are harvested, and after special treatment, they can be used as the best forage, so that more cattle and sheep can be raised, and the cattle and sheep will be fatter.

The desolate people also know, but most of them don't plow, can't bend down, and don't bother to learn.

The Sixteen Plains are far away from Licheng City, although there are two military forts on the side, but behind it is Shiliang Mountain, where there are many bandits.

It is impossible for Licheng to hand it over to the Youxiong family, but among the families in Licheng, only the Xiao family and the Zhong family have the ability to run the Sixteen Plains.

Permission to run your own ...... That's a polite remark, don't sell it to Xiao Zhong's family, who has the ability to operate, I'm afraid it's a few Qipin families who come over, and if they want to run it, it's very difficult. Unless the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord's Mansion operates the grassland, and in the end, I don't know what kind of foolish accounts I have to make.

The value of sheep is fur and meat, sheep are not too expensive in Licheng, a fat sheep only 20 rings. However, with such a large pasture and the most advanced way of fixed grazing and breeding, how many sheep can be produced in a year?

It is not possible to raise sheep all of them, but also cattle, and the income ratio of cattle will be higher.

and wildebeest.

Ordinary wildebeest is not expensive, like the wildebeest bought by Jiang Ning, less than two hundred rings, it can also carry people to run, can pull carts, and can work, but it is not good to go to the battlefield.

If you can breed a war horse, it is not two hundred rings, and a similar war horse will cost thousands of rings, if you can breed a good horse, it can often reach tens of thousands, tens of thousands of rings. It's not horses, cattle and sheep, but the Xiao family and the Zhong family, and they can also have the technology to raise other livestock with higher economic value. Once nearly 4 million acres of fertile grassland are managed by the Xiao family and the Zhong family, the income that year will be an astonishing figure.

And then there's the fur.

The fur of this world must also be treated with some special methods, otherwise it will be like Jiang Ning's winter in Daojiabao, chopping up the sheepskin and stuffing it into a hemp mattress, and it will not take long for it to become fishy and smelly.

The Xiao family and the Zhong family are both workshops for handling furs, as well as workshops for fur felt carpets.

In order to buy furs, they will also trade with various wastelands, but due to the relationship between people and famines, it is often unequal trade. For example, a cowhide, the price of the Arabe sold to the Arikuma family is often less than fifty rings, and the remaining families in Licheng will spend sixty or seventy ringing coins, which can be a difference of two or three percent, and accumulate it year after year, how much difference is the income?

Destroying Heibo Village, getting such a large grassland, and because of this deterrence, at least in this area of the northeast, the various wastelands dare not take care of them anymore, and the supply of goods is no longer controlled by others, and their workshop profits can undoubtedly increase several times.

If Heibo Village can be taken down, and it can be used as horns with Weishan Fort and Zhuling Fort, the two families will be able to enclose the large Shiliang Mountain behind them, and even use some means to turn them into a training ground for the two families. There are many elixirs in Shiliang Mountain, as well as various demon beasts and fierce beasts, the fur and flesh on these demon beasts and fierce beasts, some can be made into weapons, some can be used for alchemy, some may be made into medicinal materials, and some can be made into rune paper and rune ink...... There are also some loose small spirit veins in Shiliang Mountain, and the cost of developing them for cultivation is too high, and they cannot be cultivated in Shiliang Mountain, but they can be planted with various spirit plants.

If you take Heibo Village, you can use Heibo Village as the center, and use some gentle means to purchase or trade various commercial goods from the surrounding wasteland, and Heibo Village itself will become prosperous.

The Xiao family and the Zhong family were tempted.

As for the City Lord's Mansion, because of the construction of eighteen military forts, the expenditure of the officers and soldiers of the thirty-seven battalions, and the loss caused by the training, despite the subsidies of the imperial court, the finances of the City Lord's Mansion have become more and more difficult, even if half of the spoils are divided, the remaining half is a lot of income, so the City Lord's Mansion is also moved.

These profits are Yangmou, the Xiao family and the Zhong family, and other families will come and try it. If you don't mention the income, if you don't get it right, you will give up Heibo Village in a gloomy way and flee back to Licheng.

After thinking about it, Jiang Ning didn't think about it again.

He turned his thoughts back to the half of the booty.

The elders of the Xiao family said that they would take back the allocated pasture at a fair price. After all, according to Gui, most of them will give a fair price for half of the grassland in the City Lord's Mansion, and the rest will definitely depend on the number of people. But the base of this grassland area is too huge, if Jiang Ning can come up with a good way, it will undoubtedly make a great contribution, and the city lord's mansion will take out an unprecedented half of the proportion as a reward, whatever, it will also be allocated to Jiang Ning thousands of acres of grassland, even if the two families reduce the price, it is also a considerable income.

Slaves and slaves refer to prisoners of war, Jiang Ning subconsciously did not think about it.

However, these two incomes are still far less than the other wealth accumulated in Heibo Village!

Man dies for money, and birds die for food.

There are many yuan stones in Jiang Ning's Na ring, but these yuan stones are not visible at all except for being placed on the spirit gathering plate for cultivation.

It's like when his meridians are injured, he has to think of an idea to go to other county towns to buy healing pills.

If you can win Heibo Village, at least all the cultivation expenses in the past two years will be solved together.

Jiang Ning was tempted.

Not only him, but everyone else was also excited.

Jiang Ning lowered his head, knowing that his own involvement might really make the Youxiong family dissatisfied, and he was still thinking about whether there was any good plan...... And he is no stranger to siege warfare.

More than ten years ago, everyone in Taiping City knew that he was very "smart". That's not called cleverness, it's called precociousness.

However, some demon cultivators in this world also have all kinds of incredible skills, Jiang Ning is afraid that the people in his family will misunderstand and misjudge, he never said anything about the other world, only moderately showed some precociousness, in fact, most of the time he is still pretending to be tender.

The army of the Yue Dynasty besieged Taiping City, and Jiang Ning was very worried, so he went to the command post from time to time to listen to the plans and commands of his grandfather and various generals. He is Jiang Feng's favorite grandson, everyone just thinks he is a smart child, and he is still a child, and they don't care.

Jiang Ning listened a lot, and he secretly ran to the city to watch the two armies fighting, which made him greatly increase his military knowledge. It's just that after Taiping City was broken, he didn't want to think about this past.

Now that the two were contrasting, he still shook his head.

The scale is too different.

Square circle is used for distance, mostly refers to two points, within the radius of a certain point as the axis, or refers to the perimeter.

Put on the perimeter, often the perimeter increases tenfold, and the area can increase dozens of times, hundreds, hundreds of times!

The radius of Taiping City is more than 200 miles, which is nearly four times that of Licheng, but Licheng is squeezed by the mountains in the east, forming an irregular "B" shape, and Taiping City is almost rectangular, so the area of Taiping City is nearly 20 times the area of Licheng.

There are more people, the number of households in Taiping City was more than 30 times that of Licheng, and the number of people in each household is also more, if it is counted by the number of mouths, it may be nearly 50 times that of Licheng.

The Yue Dynasty sent tens of millions of soldiers and horses, and the strength of Taiping City could not be ignored back then.

Jiang Ning's grandfather, Jiang Feng, first cleared the wilderness, and almost moved many people from Taiping Prefecture and even nearby states, as well as a large amount of grain, grass and materials, to Taiping City, once squeezing more than 20 million households into Taiping City. Of course, when facing life and death, Ding Zhuang in every household also had to participate in the war.

Jiang Feng also recruited more than three million soldiers and horses, and asked the various sects of the Tang Kingdom to send a large number of masters, so so many troops of the Yue Dynasty could not capture Taiping City.

It also caused another result, Taiping City was broken, the head of the Jin family gave orders, slaughtered the city, and was later stopped, and Taiping City, including Taiping Prefecture, has not recovered now.

No matter the size of the city, or the size of the army, or the size of the masters, it is not at all easy to compare with the upcoming battle, and it is also impossible to use some of the tactics of the offensive and defensive sides of Taiping City in attacking Heibo Village according to the script.

So Jiang Ning asked a stupid question: "Are there many masters of the Heibo clan?"
