The goods in the fiefdom were not expensive - merchants who came from far and wide brought in a large amount of goods, which led to a general reduction in the price of goods.

Qu Laohan first went to the door of the plaque that said 'Quyang Merchant Square', and easily sold a few bags of grain brought from home - this Quyang Merchant Fang is a chamber of commerce directly under the jurisdiction of the Hou Mansion, and has always purchased unlimited quantities of grain from the farmers in the fiefdom at market prices.

The grain would be collected in the Hou Mansion and sold for a profit in a famine place, or stored in a granary for a rainy day.

Qu Laohan pulled two feet of linen cloth again - the New Year is about to begin, and now that life is comfortable, he has to pull a piece of cloth home and let his mother-in-law make two new clothes, so that the surrounding neighbors can see that our family is living a good life.

Qu Laohan counted out a dozen iron coins from his pocket, put them on the counter, and rolled up the two-foot linen cloth and carried it on his shoulder.

Qu Laohan also worked as a part-time worker in a textile factory in the industrial park, and saw the spectacular scene of hundreds of hydraulic spinning wheels operating at the same time, and knew that this cloth was easy to produce.

That's why these fabrics are sold at such low prices.

Qu Laohan hesitated for a moment, then went to the meat market again, looked at the pieces of meat steaks on the board, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva subconsciously - thinking about it, it seems that he hasn't eaten meat for a long time.

This is not good in the fiefdom - the forests have been reclaimed into farmland, and the pheasants and hares that used to be occasionally hunted are nowhere to be found, and the most you can eat on weekdays is voles.

If you want to eat a lot of meat, you can only come to the market to buy it.

After hesitating for a long time, Qu Laohan was cross-minded and instructed the meat seller to cut two pieces of black pork, pay the money, and carry them on his shoulders.

A few hours later, the peasants who had come with Qu Laohan gathered again, and when they looked closely, they all had more or less something in their hands.

"Did you see Yoko-chan?"

Qu Laohan smiled: "See, he is white and fat, and he eats better than his old man at home!" ”

All the farmers were envious, and one of them slapped his thigh violently, and was angry: "That damn boy in my family was kicked back by his master in less than a month, saying that he didn't know enough to read...... I'm mad at me! ”

"To have the opportunity to recognize words is a great blessing for the little lord to give us farmers!"

"If the academy re-enrolls students next year, I have to let him apply again! If the master takes him home again, I'll beat his ass!" ”

Qu Laohan smiled innocently: "My little yoko said - the academy recruits people every year." ”

Everyone was overjoyed, and some of the children who had not had time to register this year were also very excited.

In the midst of laughter, the group left Quyang City and returned to the farm......

For the people in the fiefdom of the three counties, this year's cold winter is destined to be a comfortable winter.

……

Xiong Wuliang is also very comfortable now-

Having just returned from the camp of the Quyang New Army and seeing the training of the soldiers of the New Army, Xiong Wuliang was very satisfied with Shaohu's way of governing the army.

When Shao Hu was a partial general in Yue State, he had an excellent reputation among the soldiers - now he personally commands an army, and Shao Hu still adheres to the principle of advancing and retreating with the sergeants.

Even in the cold winter of the month, Shaohu is also wearing a full set of armor and practicing on the school field with the soldiers of the three armies.

With the main general like this, the morale of the Quyang New Army is naturally like a rainbow.

"Xiaoyi! Go and make me a fire! Xiong Wuliang rubbed his hands, his face turned white from the cold.

10,000 soldiers were training in full gear, and naturally they didn't feel cold - Xiong Wuliang, who stood on a high platform to review, was a little miserable from the cold.

Ji Yi hurriedly followed the sound, and when she saw Xiong Wuliang's miserable appearance, she couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckling.

Xiong Wuliang glared at Yi Yi viciously.

Ji Yi took a thick mattress, wrapped Xiong Wuliang tightly, and sent Xiaobai to the kitchen to bring a large pot of water.

Two soldiers brought in a heavy copper furnace and soon lit a charcoal fire.

To light charcoal indoors, of course, the windows must be opened - Ji Yi opened a small crack in the window, and then set the kettle for boiling water on the copper stove.

After a while, the house was as warm as spring, and Xiong Wuliang was even a little hot wrapped in the mattress.

Xiaobai diligently took the tea, and the jade wrist of Xi Yi flew through the operation, and soon the room was filled with a faint fragrance of tea.

Xiong Wuliang sighed comfortably: "Xiaobai, you go to the study and find Uncle Qu to bring me what I want." ”

Xiaobai agreed, and ran out of the door.

Xiong Wuliang smiled, and when he saw that the minor who was in the way had gone out, he took the opportunity to rub oil on Xiaoyi......

Ji Yi's little face was flushed, and she glared at Xiong Wuliang with disgust, but she didn't resist, but took the latter's hands in her arms and warmed Xiong Wuliang's hands.

After a while, Xiao Bai ran back again, holding a roll of paper full of words in his hand, handed it to Xiong Wuliang, and said crisply: "Uncle Qu said that there is only this volume today." ”

Xiong Wuliang leaned back on the recliner, took a sip of tea comfortably, opened the roll of paper, and shook his head and read.

On this paper, what is written is the latest news from the Qin State!

With Xiong Wuliang's strong support, the 'Jijun Rebellion' of the Qin State finally broke out!

In real history, Yingzhuang coerced some ministers and nobles to attack Xianyang, but Wei Ran led troops to guard Xianyang and thwarted Yingzhuang's conspiracy.

It only lasted two months.

And this time, Xiong Wuliang provided strong support to Yingzhuang, and Yingzhuang also began to prepare for the plan early...... As soon as the incident started, tens of thousands of rebels were quickly armed!

The rebels stormed Xianyang, Wei Ran and Huayang Jun Qirong, Jingyang Jun Yingfu, and Gaoling Jun Yingkui fought to the death together, plus the Qin army Qin Wang in various places, which barely held on.

In the first battle of Xianyang, Jingyang Jun Yingfu and Gaoling Jun Yingkui died in battle; Huayang Jun Qirong was seriously injured...... In real history, the future 'four nobles' of the Qin State actually fell three.

Wei Ran mobilized the border Qin army to defend, thinking that he could finally quell the chaos, but he didn't expect that Yingzhuang had a lot of wings, and he actually commanded the rebels under his command to fight with the Qin army, and at the same time fought and retreated...... Everywhere Yingzhuang went, he plundered money and sent it to the state of Chu in exchange for more ordnance and food, and organized more troops......

All of a sudden, a planned 'palace change' that ended quickly turned into a protracted 'civil war'!

Xiong Wuliang looked at the battle report sent from the Qin State with relish, and sighed sadly: "The Qin State is so miserable!" ”

With the support of Xiong Wuliang's unsparing arms sales, Yingzhuang actually coerced nearly 100,000 rebels back and forth, and fought with Wei Ran and Bai Qi.

Qin suffered a civil war with heavy casualties.

Anyway, I can't see Yingzhuo's face in the house these days...... The last time Xiong Wuliang saw Ying Zhuo was three days ago, and he was obviously thinner than at the beginning, and he looked very haggard.

Xiong Wuliang held the battle report sent by the Qin State and sighed: "Although this Yingzhuang doesn't have any city government, as a general, he is still a bit level." ”

"In the face of Wei Ran and Bai Qi joining forces, they have actually struggled to support it for so long."

"It shouldn't last long, though...... More than 10,000 people were killed by Bai Qi, how can this be beaten? ”

Xiong Wuliang shook his head and sighed again and again, obviously cherishing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to bleed from Qin Guo...... Now that Yingzhuang is about to fail, the entire Chu State seems to be the most uncomfortable in Quyang Hou Xiong Wuliang......
