0342 Marquis the Stealer

Outside the city of Qinzhou Prefecture, a team of chariots, horses and packers gathered here in an endless stream. The officials of Fuzuo Prefecture also came out of the city one after another, busily recording the people and goods teams gathered from the four fields.

Li Tai and Li Xian, along with several noble villagers in the prefecture and county, sat under a makeshift pergola outside the city walls, chatting about current affairs while admiring the busy scenes of the people in front of them.

"Although the long history has been in the town for a short time, it has repeatedly performed virtuous deeds, and its voice has spread in the township, so there is a grand occasion of today's order and the masses!"

A villager who had not been seated for a long time in the shed saw that there were still people and goods crowding outside, and he couldn't help but secretly congratulate himself that he had made an early decision and set off in advance, so that he could sit here at this time, admire the fatigue of others, and sigh with emotion, and did not forget to pat Li Tai on the back.

Li Tai knew where these people were actually from themselves, bustling and profitable, but he was also very happy to hear this sycophant, smiled and waved his hand and said: "In the hometown of Shangyi, the masses are loyal and diligent and admirable, how can the reputation be monopolized by me alone!" ”

While speaking, a state official hurriedly entered with a book in his hand and said to Li Tai respectfully: "Long history, the raw cooked leather has been fully approved, and it is only waiting to be loaded and shipped." ”

"The cream and paint wax have also been collected!"

For a time, the state officials who were responsible for the overall planning and inventory of various materials entered the house one after another, which made Li Tai very happy, and he couldn't help but feel that the material reserves in Longyou Township were indeed abundant, and they actually met the miscellaneous military supplies needed by tens of thousands of troops in such a short period of time.

But it is probably because of this that the villagers are so enthusiastic about this opportunity and rush to fight for it.

Of course, these military supplies are of great value, but their value is mainly reflected in the war, but under the governance of the Longyou Metropolitan Governor's Office, there have been few large-scale wars on this side.

Many people have lost the value of these materials produced by many families, and if they want to monetize, almost every local household has them, and no one will buy a bunch of useless things to put at home, and the market farther away cannot be reached.

Sell and can't sell, lose and reluctant, so often can only be piled up at home to accumulate dust and stale. Now that the state government has borrowed these materials, they will be returned one after another in a short time, and they will also be given priority for trade, which is undoubtedly a great good news.

They themselves have a very strong trade demand, and they can also take this opportunity to exchange their old materials for the latest production of the government. Taking a step back, even those later promises were painted cakes, but the camels that were delivered as collateral on the spot were always real.

Therefore, people with a little wealth in Dafanzhou County do not want to miss such an opportunity. Even if others are hesitant, when they see that everyone is so enthusiastic, if they are not active, they will not be gregarious enough.

Hearing that all the material shortages had been replenished, Li Tai asked Li Xian to order his troops to cooperate with the state soldiers to collect the materials for easy escort, and discussed with the state and county officials in this shed to draw up the first list.

When it was learned that the government had stopped storing materials, there was a lot of discussion outside the city for a while, and some of the heroes who had just arrived suddenly shouted dissatisfied, and those who had already been delivered couldn't help but be happy. Sorrow or joy, to name a few. But before the official list was announced, their respective emotions were still somewhat restrained.

Soon after Li Tai came to Qinzhou, he had little to do with the people in the state, so he was not subjected to any requests and harassment, and the compilation of his list was nothing more than to summarize and sort out the names of all parties, arrange them in order according to the number and time criteria, and soon compile this list. And this list, to a certain extent, also represents the freshest rural situation in Qinzhou.

There are more than 30 powerful portals selected in the list, all of which are familiar surnames, and some even have several families in one family. This is not all of Longyou Haoqiang, it is only a part of the distribution around the Tianshui Closure City.

Li Tai wrote the voucher on the spot and distributed it to the selected heroes one by one.

With this certificate, they will be able to travel freely on the trade routes west of the Longyou River for a period of time to come, and enjoy the benefits of commerce and trade. Of course, the certificate has not yet officially taken effect, and the materials must be transported to Weizhou and checked by Duguxin before it can be counted.

The people who received the voucher were smiling, and they couldn't help but imagine panning for gold on this Silk Road trade route in their minds.

More than 30 vouchers were quickly distributed, and those who received them were naturally overjoyed, while those who were excluded were disgruntled and refused to leave.

Not to mention the missed opportunity to make profits in the first wave of merchants after the trade route was opened, it also cost a lot of transportation costs to transport these materials from the township to the state city!

They are not stingy and refuse to borrow, but they are lagging behind others because of the distance, so they have to bear such a price, and it depends on the proud ostentatious show off of those pioneers, which is difficult for anyone to accept.

Li Tai is also prepared for this, that is, to buy these excess military supplies directly, on the one hand, to supplement the lack of storage in Qinzhou's arsenal, on the other hand, the battle of Yubi in the second half of the year will also make the situation in Guanzhong unprecedentedly tense.

Because the price he offered was quite fair, and the transport had been brought over, if it was shipped back to his hometown, the loss would undoubtedly be greater, and it would not be in vain to sell it on the spot at a good price.

Although there is a shortage of all kinds of military materials in the state warehouse, there is still a lot of surplus in money and silk and other items.

Only Huangfu Mu and other government officials were a little crying and laughing, they only felt that Li Tai's operation was a bit excessive, either they would borrow all of them, or they would buy them all, why did they just borrow such a large amount of materials from the families, and then they had to use the treasury savings to buy the same goods at a high price? Is this something that a normal person can do?

However, seeing that Li Tai had mobilized all the accumulated materials of the people in such a short period of time and completed an almost impossible task, these people also admired this and did not dare to say anything. Even if something is unreasonable, there is no need to force perfection.

Li Tai is always not good to tell them carefully, the previous loan is to facilitate me to use the official workshop under Qinzhou to pay off the debt, after all, as long as the Silk Road trade is prosperous, that is, the product is king, of course, you need to build a production base in Longyou. He is not greedy now, and in the future, after the establishment of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, this place in Longyou will also be assigned to Yuwendao's family.

As for the latter deal, it was for the second half of the year to make a war fortune, and my big brother poured out of the nest to brush me with a big rocket before he died, how could I miss it? It's not the same thing at all, how can it be mixed up!

After a few busy days, he finally gathered the materials before Li Xian's team started. Li Xian's men and horses are responsible for the protection of their peers, and there is no need for the state government to send additional personnel.

The powerful people who borrowed materials from the government were also responsible for sending their respective shares to Weizhou, and the creditors seemed to be really aggrieved, but they happily drove the camels on the road one by one, without complaining at all.

After Li Tai sent this huge logistics team away, he was also relieved, and he only felt that the burden on his body was lighter.

He worked hard to ensure that the logistics of the Western Expedition army were worry-free, and he was even more Xiao He than Xiao He.

Although it is said that most of his efforts are still used to hollow out Longyou's public and private property savings, but the old saying is good, the hook thief punishes the thief of the country, he has worked so hard, if Yuwentai does not seal him as a founding marquis, it will be really a bit stubborn.

Not to mention that Li Tai was thinking about what step he should be promoted to after the war, this peculiar and bloated team led by Li Xian marched west along Weishui, and the news spread quickly, and it didn't take long to arrive at the Weizhou camp.

"My lord, what a joy! Li Changshi came back to report that all the materials needed by the army had been prepared, and they would arrive in Weizhou in a few days! ”

Li Tun had just received a report from the messenger from Qinzhou, so he went straight to the big tent in the camp with a happy face and reported to Duguxin.

Dugu Xin was also overjoyed when he heard this, and Yang Kuan, who was discussing with him, smiled at him with envy: "Congratulations to the Duke of Hanoi, what a happy son-in-law!" Watching him calmly solve hometown feuds and old grudges before, he already felt that he was ingenious. Now he is more able to complete almost impossible tasks in his job, such a good talent is rare in the world, and Hanoi Gong is also a discerning ......"

After Dugu Xin heard this, the smile on his face became even happier, and he took the letter sent by the messenger and carefully browsed it, still happily entrusting Yang Kuan to receive this batch of personnel and materials on his behalf, and he got up and went to the private account under the pretext of excuses.

As soon as he returned to his living tent, the smile on Dugu Xin's face suddenly disappeared, and he frequently clapped his hands and said in a muffled voice: "This kid, this kid can really do great things and do great evil, and staying in a short time will almost overturn the order of Qinzhou that I have worked so hard to build!"

Needless to say, Li Xianhe is the leader of the border group and a high-level wolf, how can he easily introduce him into the realm! Send a message to Qinzhou quickly, and let him come to see him as soon as possible! ”
