Next, under Wang Qian's arrangement, Bai Zhong was familiar with everything in the Lantian camp.

The group of Korean soldiers who surrendered with Ning Teng at the beginning, there are still more than 50,000 people left, and they have been incorporated into the Lantian camp, and Wang Jian gave these 50,000 people to Bai Zhong, not only in charge of the Iron Eagle Ruishi, but also this group of surrendered soldiers.

Bai Zhong arranged these people next and arranged them near the camp of the Iron Eagle Sharps, intending to train them into a low-level version of the Iron Eagle Sharps.

It wasn't until the evening that Bai Zhong left the barracks and went home.

"Big brother, did you bully Sister-in-law Qiu last night?"

As soon as Bai Zhong walked in the door, he heard Bai Lan running over and questioning.

Zhou Yu was embarrassed to say what he did last night, and it was really a little painful, and it was inconvenient to even walk, so he said softly: "Lan'er, my lover didn't bully me." ”

Bai Zhong felt very embarrassed, and gently tapped Bai Lan's smooth forehead: "Knowing that she is cranky, Yu'er doesn't care about her." ”

Seeing that they didn't seem to have contradictions, Bai Lan believed that it was not bullying.

One night, and soon it passed again.

Early the next morning, when Bai Zhong was about to go out, he saw Wu Lu coming to visit him.

"Wu Zhuangshi, I was just going to the ranch to find you."

Bai Zhong said.

Wu Lu smiled: "I also have one thing, I want to talk to General Bai, why don't we go to the ranch?" ”

"That's what I mean!"

Bai Zhong agreed.

The two soon returned to the ranch.

Wu Luo first led Bai Zhong to the vicinity of a cave, and as soon as he approached it, he felt a heat wave rushing towards him, and many people here were busy burning sand and there were many broken glass ballasts on the ground.

"General Bai, we made the glass, but the purity is far less good than yours."

Wu Lu picked up a broken cup placed next to him and said, "You see that's it, we can't make the glass take shape. ”

Bai Zhong took the broken cup, the workmanship was indeed very poor, the surface was yellow, and there were impurities.

As for how to make glass, Bai Zhong has already said everything he knows, Wu Lu's current technology is not up to par, and he wants to ask for help, but he doesn't know how to explain it to them.

"What do you use to make your kiln?"

Bai Zhong thought for a while, and could only ask this sentence.

Wu Luo pointed to the kiln and said, "Use firewood and charcoal." ”

Bai Zhong said: "Will the temperature not be enough?" ”

"What's the temperature?"

Wu Lu asked incomprehensibly.

Bai Zhong explained: "It's just that the inside of the kiln is not hot enough, does Wu Zhuangshi know about something called coal?" Even if it is dug out of the soil or the mountain, the black one, like charcoal, can also be burned, and it will emit an unpleasant smell. ”

Freshly dug coal is not treated, it will have thick smoke and special smells, and it will also pollute the environment.

In the Guanzhong area, as well as the adjacent Shanxi area, Bai Zhong remembered that there were coal mines.

"I know this kind of thing, but it stinks when it burns, a lot of smoke, and General Bai wants to use this to melt the sand?"

Wu Luo had seen coal, and it turned out that this thing was called coal.

Bai Zhong explained: "As long as the coal is washed with water, the smoke and odor can be relieved, but when the coal is burned, it cannot be burned in the pasture, and it is necessary to find a downwind outlet and downstream of the river, where no one lives or moves, and the temperature of the coal burning is higher, and the effect may be better." ”

Even if he didn't have to toss the glass, Bai Zhong planned to let Wulu dig coal.

He had to forge weapons, and the heat of charcoal was not enough, only coal could get the requirements.

Wu Lu thought about it for a long time, clapped his hands and said, "Since General Bai said so, I will let someone dig up those coals and come back." ”

He didn't care about all of that and he didn't care about it.

If the glass can be fired, it will definitely make a lot of money.

In case it fails......

Then fail!

At least showing his face in front of the king, Wu Lu thought it was enough.

Bai Zhong said: "Actually, I want to find Wu Zhuangshi, and there are two things. ”

Wu Lu thought for a while and said, "General, please speak." ”

"First, I want five thousand war horses."

"So many!"

Wu Lu hesitated directly.

He can take out five thousand war horses, but giving them to Bai Zhong will make his heart bleed.

Bai Zhong understood his thoughts, and said with a smile: "I am not a robber, I will not rob the horse of the black strong man, but buy it with money, how much is a horse?" ”

Wu Lu thought that he didn't need to lose blood, and after a while, he said: "For the sake of the general, six thousand dollars a horse, but the general can have so much money?" ”

He remembered that Bai Zhong had only been in Xianyang for more than half a year, and no matter how much he made meritorious contributions, he couldn't afford to buy so many war horses.

Liuli is just a tool for exchanging mutton and grain, not for war horses.

"Nope!"

As soon as Bai Zhong heard the six thousand money, he immediately shook his head, it was impossible for him to have so much money, and said: "But the king has it, Wu Zhuangshi will help me leave five thousand horses, and I will have someone send the money over when the time comes." ”

He trained his troops to help Ying Zheng sweep the six countries, of course, this money was given by Ying Zheng, after destroying Korea, Wang Ben plundered a lot of jewelry and property in Xinzheng, and finally sent it to the palace.

This money was enough to build a cavalry of 5,000 men.

When Wu Lu heard that the king had money, he said unequivocally: "In this case, I will reduce another five hundred yuan, and the war horse will be left for the general, what is the second thing for the general?" ”

Bai Zhong said: "After the black warrior dug up the coal back, I want to borrow your place to build a batch of weapons, by the way, do you have iron ore?" ”

"Of course there is, but it is not used much in Daqin."

"Yes is enough, I also bought iron ore, and I need to borrow a thousand craftsmen, preferably blacksmiths, and I will give the money later, how?"

"No problem!"

Since the king paid for it, Wu Lu agreed.

Bai Zhong was satisfied: "We have a good cooperation. ”

"Happy working together? That's a great way to describe it. ”

Wu Lu laughed, then thought of something else, and said, "General Bai still remember, the last time you asked me to sterilize pigs?" ”

Bai Zhong still remembered this incident and asked, "Wu Zhuang has done it?" ”

"It's done, and it works very well!"

Wu Lu waved his hand, let people drive two pigs over, and said: "After these pigs are neutered, they weigh almost two stones in about half a year, which is very mild, and they grow fat very quickly, and there is no shame. ”

"Pigs grow much faster than sheep, they eat everything, and it's easy to feed."

"Can I replace some of the meat I send to the barracks with some pork?"

He asked expectantly.

In this way, the value of pork is much lower than that of mutton.

Wu Lu is worthy of being a businessman, and immediately wants to control costs and reduce expenses.

Bai Zhong did not refuse this proposal, nodded and said: "You can have half pork, half mutton, I will give Wu Zhuangshi another suggestion, you can teach the way of raising pigs to other people, if you use cheap pork to make money, of course, it is no problem, but it is used to benefit the people, first, you can let the people remember Wu Zhuangshi forever, and second, you can also get the appreciation of the king, killing two birds with one stone." ”

As long as it is related to Ying Zheng, Wu Lu will be very concerned, and Bai Zhong deliberately said Ying Zheng again.

Wu Lu weighed the pros and cons, clapped his hands and said: "The method of raising pigs was taught to me by the general, and tomorrow I will let people teach it to all the people for the benefit of Daqin!" ”
