Li Yuan's riding skills were not good, and the horse he rode was not as good as the Artekin horse ridden by Li Feng, so his speed was much slower, and by the time he arrived, the battle was already about to start outside the city gate.

Li Yuan shouted in a hurry: "Wait." ”

Guo Jianzhong was greatly relieved when he saw Li Yuan coming, and at the same time glanced at Li Feng in fear, saying that this prince is arrogant and domineering, and it seems that it is far more than the degree of arrogance.

For the sake of an inconsequential soldier, he actually had to do something to himself, a three-grade fellow soldier. This kind of behavior is heroic in the eyes of Xiaobing, but in Guo Jianzhong's opinion, it is unattainable, and no matter how you look at it, it is also heavier for him.

Li Feng glanced at Li Yuan coldly: "What's the matter?" ”

Li Yuan saw that Li Feng's face was full of murderous anger, and said in a low voice: "Brother Huang, how can you say that he is also a fellow acquaintance of Yulin Wei appointed by his father, you arrested him, and his father's face is not good-looking." ”

"But he killed me alone."

"Shall I compensate for it? A hundred taels? A thousand taels is enough. ”

The salaries of the officials were quite high, but a thousand taels of silver was also a lot of money for them, enough to compensate the life of an ordinary defender.

In fact, if Guo Jianzhong kills a person in the capital, let alone a thousand taels, there is no need to give a hundred taels, the class gap is too big, and there is really no comparison.

Guo Jianzhong looked at Li Yuan gratefully, and then looked at Li Feng in awe, because he knew that if Li Yuan didn't come, Li Feng would really arrest him and put him in prison.

It stands to reason that one thousand taels should be content, but Li Feng remained silent, turned his head and asked, "What other relatives does he have?" ”

"Liu Sigang has a wife, and his wife has not been pregnant for a long time."

"I'll calculate for you if Liu Si doesn't die, his future salary, and the child's upbringing. Liu Si opened one tael of silver a month, and there were other miscellaneous fee subsidies, which were fifteen taels a year. ”

Guo Jianzhong shouted: "Impossible. ”

"How can't it be."

"Ordinary defenders in the capital can only get fifteen taels of silver a year, how can someone in Youzhou get fifteen taels."

Li Feng said coldly: "You mean to say that my Youzhou garrison is not as good as your capital garrison?" ”

Li Yuan knew that Li Feng was sitting on the ground and raising the price, and he didn't want to listen to Li Feng's calculations, so he simply raised the price: "Brother Huang, is it okay to have five thousand taels?" Even if he lived to be a hundred years old, he would not earn five thousand taels. ”

"Give five thousand taels to her family, and I want him to offer incense and bow down."

Guo Jianzhong was furious: "Impossible, Lord Wang, you still kill me!" ”

"Then take a step back and offer incense."

Guo Jianzhong pondered for a moment and nodded.

After the matter was dealt with, Li Feng asked the body to be carried back, and then asked the reason for the incident.

Li Yuan and Guo Jianzhong had lost their temper, and briefly explained what had happened, Li Feng looked at Guo Jianzhong's unconvinced face, and smiled: "Do you think that if you are a big man from the capital, you can command my soldiers?" Let them serve you to eat and clothe? ”

Guo Jianzhong had the heart to refute, but when he saw Li Yuan's eyes on him, he chose to shut up.

"Lord Wang, I have been running all the way, hungry and thirsty, and I asked the prince to provide us with some food."

"I said, you are responsible for yourself, Youzhou did not prepare your meal."

"But we're going to eat."

Li Fengqi said: "How do you eat in the capital?" Why did you forget it when you got to Youzhou? ”

"We are ...... in the capital"

Guo Jianzhong suddenly understood, Youwang wanted them to spend money in Youzhou, but they didn't bring any money with them all the way, how could they eat without money?

Guo Jianzhong told Li Feng about their difficulties, and Li Feng laughed: "I feel that you came to Youzhou to eat pretty food?" Don't you have horses without money? ”

In fact, Li Feng started with the idea of this horse, although Youzhou is close to the grassland, but the good horses have been picked up by Anxi Military Town, and most of the remaining crooked melons and cracked dates are also unusable.

The horses used by the defenders of Youzhou now are really not successful, and before Li Yuan came, Li Feng was having a headache where to get a good horse.

Then I saw Yu Linwei's horses, which were carefully selected and excellent breeds, which were stronger than those in Anxi Military Town.

So Li Feng moved the idea of letting them use horses to pay for food, but he didn't think that these people were used to the uncle in the capital, and they killed people by commanding them, but fortunately, things are back on the right path.

Guo Jianzhong heard that Li Feng had hit the idea on the war horse, and exclaimed: "Lord Wang, this is Yu Linwei's horse?" ”

"I don't care whose horse you are, if you want to eat, you either pay for it, or take something out to pay off the debt, I don't pick anything here, it's valuable."

The most valuable thing for these Yu Linwei is the war horse, followed by the armor on their body, but no matter which one it is, it is something that they stand up to save their lives, and they must not sell it for a bite to eat.

"Lord, is it okay to make an IOU, when we return to Beijing, we will ...... immediately"

"Youzhou is a small place, there is no arrears, and if you don't change it, you will be hungry, and I have no obligation to take care of your meals."

Li Yuan really couldn't stand it, Li Feng even wanted to pit Yu Linwei's war horse, this was too unpleasant.

"Brother Huang, can I pay for them?"

"Yes, as long as you have money, you look at them one by one, you must not be able to eat coarse bran and rough rice, you have to eat fine grains."

"How can two thousand people eat two thousand taels a meal, it's six thousand taels a day, and there are accommodation fees, two thousand good houses with beds and quilts, it's not too much to charge you one thousand taels a night."

"Coupled with these war horses, they can eat more than people, according to the standard of war horses, three times as many as people, this day is eighteen thousand."

"It has to be added up, exactly twenty-five thousand, we are brothers, I won't round up with you, you just give me twenty-five thousand a day."

Li Yuan almost vomited blood, 25,000 a day, what kind of production capacity is so made?

Guo Jianzhong was so angry when he heard Li Feng's nonsense that he just wanted to refute it and was pressed back by Li Feng.

"General Guo, you are a soldier, if this is a wartime expense, it will be more than this number a day."

Li Jianzhong nodded, the consumption in wartime is much greater than in peacetime, and it is not an exaggeration to spend 25,000 people a day, but this is not the case in peacetime.

But Li Feng didn't give Li Jianzhong a chance to refute at all, and immediately said to Li Yuan: "Look, I didn't cheat you." Besides, it's hard for you to come here, why don't you have to have a good time here with my brother for a few days......"

Li Yuan's face was frightened: "General Guo, the matter of food expenses, you and King You'll settle it slowly, and the palace will not be involved." ”

After saying that, Li Yuan rode away, he was really afraid of Li Feng and wanted to escape from here quickly.

Li Yuan left, Li Feng looked at Guo Jianzhong, and smiled: "We have a replacement price here, a horse can be exchanged for a mule, walk with a load, and you can farm when you pull it home, and you can get it with one stone." ”
