"By the way, there is also the bamboo you explained to us that we have successfully planted, it is purple bamboo, and after it survives, it is like alfalfa grass, and it reproduces very quickly, and now it has formed a small forest." Anno suddenly remembered something and spoke.

"Oh? Yes, the bamboo forest is very important for us in the future, try to expand its scope, as big as it can be, not too much. Huo Gang said very simply.

"Yes!" Anno also agreed directly, to be honest, some of Huo Gang's behaviors made Anno not understand at all, and he still knew a little bit about buying grain, after all, grain is the biggest hole card in these years, and he is not panicked when he has food in his hand, such as agriculture has been a very important position in the Central Plains since ancient times.

But like bamboo, white stacks, Anno doesn't know what these things can do, and slag, Anno doesn't know what Huo Gang wants to do at all.

However, he could only agree to such a thing, because at present, Huo Gang has done many things beyond his imagination.

The role of bamboo is indeed very important, because it can not only be used to make furniture, build houses, etc., its natural bamboo pipes can be used as good natural pipes after special drying, which is difficult to find in ancient times.

And it can bend, which other materials can't do.

So these things have a great use, in the Western Regions this is a rare thing, that is, the spiritual spring water can make these bamboos survive, although the purple bamboo itself can be relatively cold-resistant, but bamboo needs water, too arid places can not be.

"I'm not going back, I'm going straight to Yumen Pass." Huo Gang thought about it, walked directly to Hongyun's side, turned over and got on the horse, and then spoke.

"The general will not rest for a day before leaving, Chief Zheng has left exchange personnel at Yumen Pass, I will first send someone over to inform the other party, let him go back and inform Chief Zheng, it is not too late for the general to rest here for a day." Anno spoke.

"No, I still have something to explain when I go back, we are short on time now, and we can't delay any day." Huo Gang shook his head.

"Yes! Congratulations to the General. Anno rushed Huo Gang on the horse and bent down.

Huo Gang did not hesitate, directly turned around and galloped towards Yumen Pass in the direction of the river.

By the time the sun had passed noon, Huo Gang and they appeared at Yumen Pass, and along the way, Huo Gang found that the rivers on both sides were not far from each other, and the roads that had been detected before had been re-planned.

There were constantly horse-drawn carriages going back and forth between Yumen Pass and Yangguan on the road, so along the way, Huo Gang could see several horse-drawn carriages traveling in pairs, pulling wood, charcoal, or other things.

When these people saw Huo Gang, although Huo Gang didn't stop his steps, and he didn't even look at them, these people still bent down and saluted Huo Gang's back.

By the time Huo Gang returned to Yumen Pass, Wu Ping and the others had already come out, and it should be that the people on the city gate saw Huo Zheng's banner from afar.

"General." Wu Ping saluted Huo Gang for the first time.

"Mr. Wu, please get up, everything is okay at home?"

"General rest assured, everything is fine at home." Wu Ping smiled and straightened his body and said.

"That's good, Wang Shan, you go and inform Zheng Ning's people now, let him go back and tell Zheng Ning to come to Yumen Pass immediately, we have business to discuss." Huo Gang said very simply.

"Yes." Wang Shan immediately turned around and explained, and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy behind Wang Shan saluted Huo Gang first, and then immediately turned over and galloped away.

"Who is this kid?" Huo Gang asked with a smile.

"Back to the general, it's that kid from my family." Wang Shan scratched his head a little embarrassed, "I asked him to follow me, mainly as a messenger, after all, the young man is in good health." ”

"Haha, okay, as long as you think you can, but some important news, he has to be steady." Huo Gang laughed twice, now they are too short of people, so some children have also played an important role.

"General rest assured, if this little rabbit cub dares to delay a big thing, I will personally break his leg." Wang Shan immediately said with a serious face.

"Okay, I'm not asking you to break your leg, the son is not the godfather's fault, you have to teach everything that should be taught before he makes a mistake." Huo Gang waved his hand.

"Yes."

"Is there anything important for the general to explain to us when he comes back this time?" Wu Ping took over and asked.

"Well, I'm going to buy a lot of grain from Zheng Ning's side, Wang Shan, what's going on with the war horse?" Huo Gang turned to Wang Shan.

"Back to the general's words, all our current horses have been gathered, and according to what the general said, they all drink horses with the water of the Drinking Horse River, and the time of each batch of drinking is recorded." Wang Shan immediately said seriously.

"Well, when we traded with Zheng Ning, we gave their war horses no more than thirty days to drink the water of the Drinking Horse River, understand?" Huo Gang said seriously.

In fact, all the water sources near the entire Yumen Pass can be said to have the effect of spiritual spring water, but other people don't know, like Zheng Ning, the people of their caravan, they only come to drink once in a while, and they can't feel that this is normal.

These war horses are controlled by Wang Shan, and these old pawns Huo Gang are still very relieved.

"How much is the general going to sell to them?" Wang Shan immediately asked.

"There is no limit, and we all want food, the more the merrier." Huo Gang said very simply, "But based on what I negotiated with the other party before, two-thirds or one-half of the war horses will be replaced by war horses, and the rest will be exchanged for grain." ”

"General, why do you want so much food? We don't seem to be short of food right now. Wu Ping said with some doubts.

"No, we're starting to run out of things right away." Huo Gang smiled and said.

Because Huo Gang is ready to start playing with money, and in this era, food is money, and with food, Huo Gang's money can be completely circulated in the territory, and at the same time, the entire territory can become more prosperous.

……

Just when Huo Gang was about to trade, Li Er, who was far away in Chang'an at this moment, received another secret letter, but this time this secret letter was not from An Xinggui, but from the Li family in Longxi!

After reading the contents of the secret letter, Li Er's whole expression instantly became strange, because he was angry about this matter just a day ago, but the next day he received another secret letter without saying anything, and the content of this secret letter made Li Er a little unsure of what to say.

After pondering for a while, Li Er spoke: "Chang Lin." ”

"Your Majesty." The middle-aged eunuch immediately walked out quietly from the side and bowed.

"You go out of the palace to pick someone into the palace, take him to the Liangyi Palace, be careful, don't let anyone know."

"Yes!"
