274 Ready to get started

"How did you come up with that price you just offered?"

After Zheng Xiuyan negotiated with Xu Huabiao here, she was arranged by Xu Huabiao for Zheng Yilin to be sent to the guest house in Luoyang City to rest.

In the study, Xu Huabiao and Bae Joo-hyun, as well as Zhou Jieqiong and Li Ji-en, who had not shown up just now, sat together.

Xu Huabiao asked Pei Zhuhyun with a curious face.

To be honest, don't say that Zheng Xiuyan just heard the offer and became angry, but Xu Huabiao herself was shocked when she heard it.

What surprised Xu Huabiao even more was that Zheng Xiuyan actually agreed......

"Chang'an, Hongnong County, two years of tax income, is probably this number." Lee Ji-eun, who was next to him, interjected.

Xu Huabiao was stunned.

"Two years? Are you sure? ”

"If you don't fight and recover it directly, there will be a surplus of those two years, but if you go through some wars...... Two years or so, maybe almost. ”

Lee Ji-eun said it very seriously.

"So, you guys already counted it?" Xu Huabiao looked at Pei Zhuhyun with a ridiculous expression.

"Yes! It's been a long time ago. When the lord was still in Jiangdong before, we thought about directly sending troops to occupy Hongnong and Chang'an, so that we could have more ......money," Li Zhien nodded.

"When I was in Koto...... Wait a minute, at that time, there will only be you in Luoyang, your sister, Yanxi, and at most one Zheng Caiyan, right? Who gave you the confidence that you can take down Chang'an? Xu Huabiao's face was ridiculous. Do you have someone who can lead troops to battle? ”

"Isn't it what you said, my lord, you might as well make the dream bigger, so that even if it is broken, the fragments will be bigger." Li Zhien looked serious, "I asked someone to engrave this sentence in my study, and I read it every day." ”

"That's a dream, not a pipe dream...... Never mind. So did you not move because you couldn't beat it, or because it wasn't cost-effective? Xu Huabiao already understood, and looked at Pei Zhuhyun, "But didn't you go to Jiangdong with me?" How would you know? ”

"I've seen the information!" Pei Zhuhyun looked serious, "Son, don't you think that I only drink and sleep every day in Luoyang?" ”

“……”

Xu Huabiao was silent.

Actually, it's the default.

"I'm going to say goodbye to my hometown!" Bae Joo-hyun looked angry and ignored by Xu Huabiao.

"So Zheng Xiuyan should also know this?"

"I'm sure she's done that." Bae Joo-hyun nodded, "If it wasn't cost-effective to fight, she wouldn't agree to Li Xiuman's fight." ”

“…… Now the question is, are we sure we are going to send troops to fight Chang'an? Xu Huabiao nodded, and then began to get down to business.

Compared to how much money you get, whether you can beat it down is serious.

"Our latest spy sent back from Chang'an said that within a month, Zheng Yusheng's planned operation against Pei Yongjun will be launched, and by the time we march to Tongguan, it is estimated that the battle in Chang'an City has been basically completed." Pei Zhuhyun said seriously, "When the time comes, as long as we send people to Chang'an just like when you opened the gate of Shouchun City, the lord did, the matter will be solved." ”

"The rest is what we earn?"

"That's it! We can't afford to lose money! Bae Joo-hyun looked serious.

"Well, good. That...... Well, call Hyo-min and Eun-jung. This time, he sent troops to Chang'an and let Enjing lead the troops. Xu Huabiao thought for a while and nodded, "Just let Yun'er take Lin Zhenna and them to help her." ”

"Lord, don't you want to go with you?"

"Me? No need......"

"My lord, you can only show respect for the Son of Heaven!"

“…… Okay. Xu Huabiao thought for a while and nodded, "Then you don't need to let Yun'er bring so many people, me, her, and one more Quan Nara are enough." ”

"Then I'll arrange it on this side?" Zhou Jieqiong confirmed with Xu Huabiao.

"You can prepare properly, don't delay this year's spring plowing because the soldiers go out to fight." Xu Huabiao looked at Li Zhien and admonished.

"This is natural, the lord can rest assured." Lee Ji-eun smiled and nodded.

……

I don't know whether it was Li Xiuman who was in a hurry to take Chang'an under his command, or Han Geng's eagerness to enter Beijing to meet His Majesty, or whether the Son of Heaven finally had the opportunity to avenge the revenge that Pei Yongjun and them drove all the way east, and it was even possible that Zheng Xiuyan guessed their offer before she set off from Xuchang to Luoyang to persuade Xu Huabiao to send troops.

After Zheng Xiuyan got the promise from Xu Huabiao, in just ten days, the materials she promised to give Xu Huabiao as a subsidy for sending troops were successively transported from Yanzhou and Yuzhou to the Tiger Prison.

In this way, the Tiger Prison guard Park Suyan became the captain of the transportation brigade, and began to send her to Luoyang, where there were not many people in the Tiger Prison Pass, and began to hand over the materials sent by Li Xiuman.

In three days, one after another, the materials that Pei Zhuhyun asked for were delivered.

At this time, it is time to implement the troop dispatch plan arranged by Xu Huabiao.

"Mr. Xu is really a trustworthy person!"

In Xu Huabiao's study, Zheng Xiuyan sat on the chair next to Xu Huabiao, and after listening to Park Hyo-min, a member of the military department, report on the marching plan of the soldiers who began to leave for Chang'an today, she thanked Xu Huabiao.

Half a month has passed since she came to Luoyang.

In the past half a month, Xu Huabiao arranged for Zheng Yilin to accompany her basically throughout the whole process.

Of course, to put it another way, "surveillance" might be more appropriate.

Just like what Shen Changmin did in Xuchang back then.

No way.

Although Xu Huabiao likes Zheng Xiuyan very much, it can even be said that before coming to this world, Xu Huabiao's favorability towards Zheng Xiuyan was even higher than Lin Yun'er, but now, after all, she is Li Xiuman's person.

In particular, it is still Li Xiuman's "Xiao He", it is not possible to prevent it.

Recently, Luoyang has just finished the New Year's celebration and entered the spring ploughing preparation stage, and there is a lot of work to be done, which has a lot of things, such as how to dispatch livestock, adjust the military camp, the plan of private farming, and the calculation of next year's crop area......

Wait a minute.

These are all Level 1 Secrets.

In addition to the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Industry and the three provinces, even Zheng Yilin, who is in the Ministry of Rites, may not be clear.

Naturally, it is impossible for Zheng Xiuyan to know.

Although in fact, including Zhou Jieqiong, they don't understand why Xu Huabiao's repeated orders and declarations are first-class secrets.

They don't really have any concept of national strategy, food security, etc......

And accompanied by Zheng Yilin, Zheng Xiuyan basically didn't see anything useful in the past half a month.

There is a kind of "everyone in Luoyang is so energetic!" ".

"Of course, those who promise must be counted. People can't stand without faith! Xu Huabiao smiled and said to Zheng Xiuyan, who had been in Luoyang for half a month and had gained a lot of weight, "So, is Lord Xiuyan going to Chang'an with us, or waiting for us to come back in Luoyang, or is she planning to go back to Xuchang?" ”

"This time, the lord sent me out, just hoping that I could return to Xuchang with General Han Geng. I still can't go back. Zheng Xiuyan looked at Xu Huabiao and shook her head.

“…… I don't understand Li Xiuman, isn't it good for people like you to engage in internal affairs in Xuchang? Let you come out and do these jobs...... Alas. Xu Huabiao sighed softly, "That's okay, the soldiers set off for the western expedition today, and I will leave tomorrow, so you can go with me." ”

"Is that okay?"

"No, you won't go?" Xu Huabiao glanced at the fake polite Zheng Xiuyan.

Jung so-yeon laughed.

"Then Lord Xiuyan, let's go back and rest and prepare first, we will be out of the city early tomorrow morning." Xu Huabiao smiled and said, "I still have something to deal with." ”

"Oh? Need my help? Zheng Xiuyan said very positively.

This half month is the easiest half month since she decided to go out of the mountain to become Li Xiuman's strategist a few years ago.

She's really not used to it.

"Oh, no, I'm just going to meet Kim Jong Kook and say goodbye at the end. Maybe we won't have a chance to meet in the future......" Xu Huabiao smiled.

“…… Kim Jong Kook is still in Luoyang? ”

“…… You still don't know? ”

"I ...... Recently, I basically haven't gone out at the inn. What is Kim Jong Kook still doing in Luoyang? ”

"Oh, wait for spring to come! It's not appropriate to drive him to the grassland in the middle of winter, right? Xu Huabiao asked Zheng Xiuyan.

"This ...... I didn't mean that either. But if it's spring, he's leaving......"

"We're going to Chang'an this time, and it's good to be back before summer." Xu Huabiao smiled and sighed, "I've been ready for half a year." ”

“…… Good work, Lord Xu. ”

"It's nothing, who made me a hussar general appointed by His Majesty? It is also appropriate to show for His Majesty the anger he suffered in Chang'an back then. Xu Huabiao smiled, "Okay, I'll leave ...... first."

"Well, then I'll go back to the guest house first." Zheng Xiuyan hurriedly stood up.
