Liyang Fangcheng is divided into five squares, because of the arrival of the prince of the Western Wei Dynasty and a number of powerful and high-ranking officials, the soldiers who were originally stationed here have gone to camp outside the city.

Gao Zhongmi, the newly promoted Taiwei Gong, was arranged to live in the Nanfang District, and when Li Tai entered the city, the curfew had already begun, and there were few pedestrians except for the guards of the forbidden army patrolling back and forth in the streets.

The group walked through the streets and alleys, and soon came to Gao Zhongmi's residence, a three-room military house, and more than a dozen forbidden army armor soldiers were stationed in front of the door.

Probably Yu Wentai was also worried that Gao Zhongmi was not worthy of the position, and was wiped by the envious, jealous and hateful Beizhen generals who came to the door and wiped his neck.

Gao Zhongmi was still waiting for Li Tai to dine together, and when he saw him coming, he also beckoned the new chief Shi Nianhua to sit together, and treated him much more politely than the previous chief Shi Heland, after all, this Nianhua had a really strong network in the Western Wei Dynasty.

After the meal, several people sat down to greet each other, and Li Tai was also observing Nianhua, if this new long history is not easy to get along with, then Gao Zhongmi, the captain, will be even more uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Nianhua, a young man, has a very good personality, speaks and behaves politely, and can be polite and respectful to Gao Zhongmi, the boss.

After chatting for a while, Li Tai yawned again and again, and he was indeed tired after running around for days. When Gao Zhongmi saw this, he waved his hand and let a few people disperse to rest.

There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the next day, Changshi Nianhua first sent Gao Zhongmi out of the house and went to Daxingtai to discuss the affairs, and then returned to the house to sit down, and read the scroll in detail after the big reading and the etiquette related to the Taiwei Mansion.

Not long after, Nianhua suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves galloping outside the door, and he was surprised in his heart.

At present, the crown prince and Daxingtai are both in the city, and the vigilance is strict, and non-public governments are not allowed to ride horses in the city. Hearing the sound of the horse's hooves approaching, Nianhua hurriedly got up and walked out.

Seeing the appearance of the person who came, Nianhua strode forward and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Brother Huibao, and he missed the distance." Brother doesn't go to the government to discuss matters, why are you here? ”

"Why is Nian Da in Captain Gao's residence?"

Some Hui turned over and dismounted before entering, and was stunned when he saw Nianhua.

After hearing this, Nianhua said: "Brother Yue Qian, I was exempted, and I had to give the history of the Taiwei Mansion, and follow the Taiwei Duke to participate in the big reading." ”

"It turns out that you are convinced, and time flies so fast. Don't be surprised that the former is always with him in his ministry and has no time to visit diligently! ”

When Hui heard this, he sighed with emotion, handed his mount to the attaché, and then went to the house with Nianhua, and casually asked how he was doing.

After entering the room, Nianhua invited some Hui to sit down, looked at him and said cautiously: "Taiwei Gong has entered the mansion early in the morning, what is the matter with Brother Huibao's visit?" If it doesn't matter, Brother Rong will go to tell the captain later. ”

"I'm not looking for the captain, I'm looking for his subordinate Li Boshan. I know that Boshan entered the city last night, let him come to see him! ”

When some Hui said this, his face was full of anger: "I thought he was shrewd and sophisticated, but he still misjudged people's feelings. Since he did not go to me, I came to him. ”

When Nianhua heard this, he was a little nervous. Before he took office in the government, he also inquired about Gao Zhongmi's personal affairs, and learned that people at that time were quite critical of Gao Zhongmi's theft of high positions.

At this time, when he saw some of Hui's menacing visits, he subconsciously felt that he was afraid that he was coming to provoke.

After a little silence, Nian Hua stood up from the seat, first waved to some Hui Shen, and then said in a deep voice: "My brother has been away from the world for a long time, and there are many things in the world. Fang Jinjin has entered the WTO and assumed his new post, and his mood is trembling, and he is afraid that he will lose people's hopes.

Although I don't know how deeply entangled my brother is, I still have some affection in front of my brother to take matters seriously. If the elder brother thinks that he can make up for this matter, please do not disturb other members of the house. ”

When Shu Hui heard this, he couldn't help but look at Nian Hua with wide eyes, and only laughed after a while: "Nian Da, you have been in the mansion for a short time, and you don't have a deep relationship with that Li Boshan, is it worth wasting affection for him in front of your hometown?" ”

"The same house is in the same thing, it is the same fate. If it's just a distraction, I implore Brother Hui Bao to be forgiving. If the involvement is too deep, I would like to take the liberty of arbitrating the matter in the hope that it will be resolved in a good way. ”

Nianhua said again.

When Shu Hui heard this, he clapped his hands and laughed: "I often hear people say that they are honest and pure, and have a benevolent demeanor, listening to your words, the rumors are indeed true!" Don't worry, I am not enemies with Li Boshan, he can enter the customs safely, or take advantage of my protection. ”

Nianhua was still skeptical, but he still raised his hand and ordered his entourage to go and invite Li Tai to come.

Li Tai was tired for many days, and he slept soundly and sweetly, and waited until someone knocked on the door before waking up. Upon learning of some Hui visiting in the early morning, he washed up hastily and then went out to meet him.

And in the house, he first saw Nianhua secretly glaring at him, and was curious, and turned his head to see a number of Hui Zheng sitting in the hall with a straight face, so he entered the front and said with a smile: "The account book is 15,000 styles, and the staff has been sent to Beihuazhou before the trip, so that the king can be checked after returning or not." ”

"I have already met on the road, don't worry about you. Now I ask, Li Lang, what do you mean by this? ”

Some Hui's face still did not improve, and he raised his hand and slapped a roll of paper on the case: "Could it be that in your opinion, I am just a layman who covets the current floating goods, and I am not worthy of being a friend who has a long-term relationship?" ”

Li Taijin took a look and found that the scroll of paper was the dividend plan he had planned before, and it also included the bill of goods provided by Jingzhao County.

"I have always been grateful to you to know Boshan. Therefore, when the homework is profitable, it is necessary to rush to perform. Love is true and not false, and it is by no means ashamed of words. Make you believe in me, enrich personnel for my use, and deserve to be rewarded! ”

He smoothed out these accounts and pushed them back in front of several Hui, and said: "A month ago, the township group was suffering from food, and asked me for help, stealing water in the garden for many days, and it took ...... time and labor."

"The reason why I bought a house in Luoshui is only because Li Lang is alone, and I tell my family to obey everything, are they ......?"

Some Hui opened his mouth to interrupt Li Tai's words, and his face sank.

"That's not true, the villagers are very cooperative, so I am especially emotional, I must do my best to show a little."

Li Tai pointed to the bill again and said, "If there is only one family in the household, I may not give the goods." However, all the soldiers and the population are dependent on the side for food, and it is immoral to steal others to enrich themselves. I implore you to smile and accept it, otherwise I may not have the face to go in front of the court in the future. ”

"Fengye is a good car, who doesn't like it? But I don't need to steal your intelligence to feed my family, and I don't want to take it all! ”

A number of Hui still put out the bill, and took out a piece of dry cake and put it on the table: "This is the military ration you made for the Wuxiang County and Township Regiment?" I tasted it in the Taishi's house before, and I was indignant that Li Lang was hiding his secrets, so I came to see you first when I didn't have time to go to Daxingtai.

Can this kind of food be continued to be made? This winter, I will leave the country to hunt and attack Jihu in the Northern Regions, and I especially need this kind of food to supply the soldiers. Luodong is doing your best to use it, and the materials required are spent in my household, can I achieve the constant supply of food? ”

When Li Tai heard this, he realized that some Hui had come to find his point, picked up the piece of cake and knocked it with his hand, and then said with a smile: "You will not mistake the king's army!" ”

Some Hui were overjoyed when they heard this, and motioned for Li Tai to come in and sit down, picked up those bills and stuffed them into Li Tai's arms: "A little floating goods, it is convenient to buy my military and political affairs." If Li Lang shirks it again, it means that he thinks I don't deserve this long-term help! ”

Hearing some Hui say this, Li Tai could only smile and put away those bills, and then pull them up, which seemed hypocritical.

"If I hadn't seen Li Lang's homework in person, I really didn't know that there were so many ingenious miscellaneous industries in the world! No wonder when the army was stationed in Shayuan, Brother Heba wanted to enter my account and take people! Although I don't know the depth of your wisdom yet, just a few of them are amazing enough! ”

Seeing that Li Tai had put away the bill, as if he had a matter on his mind, his demeanor became relaxed and cheerful, and he said with a smile: "The food of the Wuxiang County and Township Group has long attracted the attention and discussion of the people in Jingyuan. Such a beauty industry should be bigger and stronger. All families raise armies, each has an urgent need, if they all enter my house to buy, the materials will always be used by me. I also see the wisdom of the wise, with such a clever plan, what does Li Lang think? ”

When Li Tai heard this, his eyes lit up.

It's not that he doesn't have the idea of making this cause bigger, but those military leaders who support their own troops are inevitably arrogant, and they are far less convenient to deal with than the government that does things and has some regulations.

It is really harmful for him to provoke too many such disputes over money alone. The shelter that Hobatsheng was able to provide him was no longer long-term. Even if the industry grows bigger, it will inevitably be taken away by others.

But now that some Hui has taken the initiative to bring it up, the situation is different. Although a number of Hui in history was not a long-lived person, it could at least provide him with a few years to strengthen himself.

If he can't keep his property in a few years, then he will be too wasted. It's not a matter of money or money, and I'm afraid that my life will be in jeopardy.

At present, the production process of compressing military rations is still very cumbersome and crude, and there is still great room for improvement. Processes such as ramming cakes can be replaced by hydraulic machinery such as water mills, saving some labor and improving efficiency.

However, winter has already fallen after the Great Reading, and most of the Kansai rivers are frozen, and temporary production can only be maintained by manpower. It is only in the following year that further expansion of production capacity can be considered when the water power becomes more vigorous again.

Li Tai told some Hui his calculations, and he was not in a hurry, after all, he would be very busy in the future, not only to preside over the expansion of the household in Beihuazhou, but also to guard against Jihu entering the winter raids.

"But you can pay a deposit first!"

When a number of Hui said this, he saw Li Tai looking at him with strange eyes, so he smiled dryly: "I also heard Brother Heba tell you about your deeds of fighting the countrymen. ”

Li Tai also laughed after hearing this, his operation in the township had already made his name a little stinky, and everyone was more or less afraid to engage in any pre-sale business with him.

But the military leaders of Beizhen are still an undeveloped virgin land, and since some Hui took the initiative to ask for help, he could also let him operate it and borrow his capital to make profits.
