In Luoyang, only the Zhao family army led by Zhao Hanzhang, Zhao Erlang's Nanyang army, and Beigong Chun's Xiliang army remained.

Zhao Hanzhang saw that Zhao Erlang was having fun here, so he simply asked Wang Zhen, who stayed in Nanyang Kingdom, to temporarily take over the responsibility of the county guard, and then let Zhao Erlang start to select his elite soldiers.

"You pick a thousand people first, you have to practice every day for these thousand people, and the rest will guard Xin'an."

Zhao Erlang: "Where is Xin'an?" ”

"Xin'an is not far from Luoyang, it is a small county town, I asked, there is no county order there, I will send a county order there, what about you, just station troops in Xin'an, and help with Gucheng and Luoyang." Zhao Hanzhang beckoned to him and asked him to look at the map, "Chen Wu's beggar army is here, Beigong Chun is stationed in Luoyang, if the Xiongnu want to go south, they must pass through Gucheng, and if the Nanyang King of Xianbei and Chang'an comes, they must pass through Xin'an County, and both of you are the vanguard of Beigong Chun." ”

"And Luoyang is the gateway to the Central Plains, if Xianbei and the Xiongnu go south, if they bypass Luoyang, the battle line will be lengthened, they will not have enough food and grass, and it is very likely that Luoyang will cut off the back road, and we will close the door and beat the dogs." The more Zhao Hanzhang said, the more he felt that it was best to let Beigong Chun guard Luoyang.

Her eyes were shining, "Last year, Liu Yuan bypassed Luoyang to fight Yuzhou, if it was Beigong Chun who guarded Luoyang, Liu Yuan would either be surrounded and killed by us in Yuzhou, or, he could only flee east, go to Yanzhou, and go back through Jizhou." ”

It's a pity that it was the king of the East China Sea who defended the city, so he just sat and waited for Liu Yuan to face Gou Xi, and he was blind to such a good time to expel the Huns.

Zhao Hanzhang only regretted it for a moment, and then returned to the topic, "After going to Xin'an, you not only have to train the troops, but also learn to garrison the troops, Xie Shi still follows you, if you don't understand, please ask Mr., you know?" ”

Zhao Erlang nodded, "Sister, I will be a soldier, just farming, I also followed them to farm when I was in Xiping, I will plant wheat and cut wheat." ”

Zhao Hanzhang glanced at him approvingly, "This time Tuntian is not only farming, but also has to build roads." ”

Thinking of the official road situation back to Luoyang through Gucheng this time, Zhao Hanzhang looked disgusted, "There are potholes and dust, fortunately, we have ox carts in addition to horses, otherwise the carriage will have to be turned over faster." ”

Let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about repairing the road first.

She said: "The official road from Xin'an to Luoyang will be handed over to the soldiers of your Nanyang Kingdom to repair." ”

Zhao Erlang didn't know the sinister, so he responded in one bite.

When Xie Shi knew that it was over, he looked at Zhao Erlang wordlessly and asked, "Erlang didn't ask the envoy for something?" ”

"What do you want?"

"Ask for money!" Xie Shi said: "Don't you need money to build roads?" ”

Zhao Erlang said straightforwardly: "My sister has no money, and today's dinner has begun to mix wheat bran into the cakes, and the baked cakes are not very delicious." ”

"......" Xie Shi said tiredly: "Build a road, ask for money!" ”

Zhao Erlang waved his hand indifferently: "I have money, use mine." ”

He turned his head and said to Zhao Cai: "Go and get my money box." ”

Zhao Cai glanced at Xie Shi and turned around to get it, but he didn't give it to Xie Shi, but opened it in his arms for Xie Shi to see.

Xie Shi saw that the gold and silver bills in it were mixed with some silver ingots and copper coins, and he knew that this was the pocket money he had saved himself.

Xie Shi waved his hand, asked Zhao Cai to put it away, and asked, "Erlang, where do you have so many loot?" ”

Not to mention the house shop, he still robbed, oh, he collected a lot of pearls, gems, gold and silver utensils and the like.

Zhao Erlang said: "I'll give it all to my sister." ”

Xie Shi: "...... That's it, I'll ask for money. ”

Zhao Hanzhang finally sat down at the table, holding an abacus and calculating against the ledger.

Fu Tinghan, who was approving the official document on the side, heard that the sound of the abacus was getting quieter and sparser, so he raised his head and glanced at her, "Is the gap big?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang sighed with the account book, "The main thing is that there are too many people to support, and I don't know if it's fortunate or unfortunate, if Fan Ying and they bring back 200,000 people, I don't think they will be able to support them." ”

100,000 people is just her limit, and she has to search to maintain it.

Fu Tinghan flipped through it, took out a few pieces of paper and handed them over, "Chen County sent it, you may be able to be happier when you see it." ”

Zhao Hanzhang stretched out his hand to take it, and above was the list of armaments given by Zhao Ming, Yuzhou was operating normally, and the two iron mines were produced, so they could supply armaments.

"Replace the damaged weapons in the generals and give them to the blacksmith to smelt and make agricultural tools," Zhao Hanzhang folded and glued the pieces of paper into the recorded account book, and then sighed with his chin propped up.

Fu Tinghan took the time to look up at her and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"I'm thinking about money." She said: "I was just trying to figure out where to get the money, and then I found that there were only three places where I could get the money. ”

Fu Tinghan raised his eyebrows.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "One is the Liangjiang area, which has always been stable, and it is the land of fish and rice, and I bought a lot of grain from there last time; The second is the area south of the Yangtze River, where there is a corner of peace, and I have been talking about the grain and cloth there for a long time; ”

When Fu Tinghan saw her stop, he asked cheerfully, "What about the third place?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang moved his eyebrows towards the north, "The Xiongnu and Xianbei, how many good things Liu Yuan has scavenged from the Central Plains over the years, the scholars of Liangjiang and Jiangnan have actually always admired the nobles of the Central Plains, if they can buy those things back and go to the south, I don't know how much grain and cloth they can exchange for." ”

Glass is very profitable, so Fu Tinghan has made a lot of glass in the past two years, in order to support the cost of Zhao Hanzhang's army.

It can be said that the most profitable industry under Zhao Hanzhang's name is the glass workshop, whether it is a businessman or a scholar, or even an ordinary person, it seems that it is difficult to resist the transparent and exquisite glass products.

Zhao Hanzhang said: "I think, the Huns and Xianbei people are also difficult to resist the temptation of Liuli." ”

Fu Tinghan: "In addition to money, what you lack most should be horses." ”

"That's right," Zhao Hanzhang patted the table and said, "It's a horse!" It is a pity that the Huns and Xianbei people are very wary of us, and hardly sell stallions to the Han Chinese. ”

Every time I buy a horse, I buy it back either a stalled horse that has already been castrated or an inferior stallion that I have spent a lot of money to buy.

Zhao Hanzhang was afraid of a bunch of inferior horses.

Every time she urged the horse farm to go out, Wei Matou asked her to stall the horse, but she was saddened.

Fu Tinghan: "Didn't you ask Wu Erlang to follow the envoy from Bingzhou to Jinyang?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang said: "It's not enough to rely on him, I want to cultivate a smuggling gang that digs into my corner." ”

Fu Tinghan paused for a moment before she realized what she meant, "You mean, you want someone who is not discovered by you in the eyes of the other party, digs into your corner, and takes advantage of your interests to cooperate with the other party?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang nodded.

Fu Tinghan's back stiffened, and he looked at her, "Who?" ”

Zhao Hanzhang looked at him.

Fu Tinghan: "...... Why me? ”

"I don't need you to come forward, just borrow your name and use it, just show it occasionally, and these things are naturally done by the people below."

Fu Tinghan: "For example? ”

"For example, Fu An." Is there anyone better than Fu An to show Fu Tinghan's identity?
