"Sir, this is the last course."

The servant put the last dish on the table.

"This is the donkey meat we have killed."

"Donkey?" Ziyou put down the chopsticks in his hand and asked in surprise.

Donkeys at this time were not as common as they were in later generations. Donkeys are mainly produced in the Western Regions and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, although there are also traces of donkeys in the Central Plains countries, but they are extremely rare. A large number of donkeys flowed into the Central Plains or Zhang Qian of the Western Han Dynasty came back from the Western Regions and opened up the Silk Road, so a large number of donkeys were introduced.

Today's donkeys are not as lowly as those of later generations, and often only the powerful can have them, and some people even keep donkeys at home as rare animals. During the reign of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, donkeys became the pets of the nobles, worth no less than horses, and caused scramble and grabbing. The reason is that Emperor Ling was tired of court life and wanted to have fun, so he chose four white donkeys to pull the cart and gallop around the palace to play. The emperor liked donkeys, and the ministers followed suit, so a "donkey fever" was formed.

It's just that Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty has nothing to do because he is idle, and now donkeys are really scarce items, and raising donkeys on a large scale is a matter of the Han Dynasty. Although donkeys are not as good as horses that can be ridden on the battlefield, they are more cost-effective than horses in terms of transporting goods. First of all, donkeys are easy to feed, donkeys can endure coarse food, heavy burdens, and more importantly, the price of raising them is lower than that of horses, and some small donkeys can carry quite tall people. The average donkey can carry a weight of up to 100 kilograms, and there is no problem in walking the mountain road for five to six hours in a row.

"Yes, we caught it by chance from the wild, and it happened that Mr. came, so I thought of offering him something unusual to eat." The little guy said.

Ziyou, as the boss of their net, their subordinates naturally want to express their hearts. Shao Siming looked at the donkey meat on the table with some surprise, she had only heard of donkeys, but she had never seen them, let alone eaten them. Shao Siming picked up a piece of donkey meat with chopsticks and put it in his mouth and chewed it, feeling the taste of donkey meat carefully.

"How many donkeys did you catch this time?"

Ziyou didn't have the heart to eat at the moment, he didn't expect to be able to surprise himself with a meal. At present, most of the troops rely on manpower or horses to transport grain and grass. The former is too expensive, and the latter is too laborious to raise, it is better to hand over these horses to the Qin army and expand the cavalry, and the general cavalry can reach one person and two horses, which is considered a top match. And the cavalry of the Yulin Army has reached one person and three horses, which makes the original Qin State not many excellent war horses even more insufficient to supplement the cavalry, not to mention the need for horses for logistics and transportation.

But now with donkeys are different, donkeys are more cost-effective than horses in both breeding and use, and mules crossed by donkeys and horses have a natural advantage in transporting grain and grass. Now there is also a shortage of war horses within the Qin army, and the main horse farms of the Seven Kingdoms are not only those of Qin, but also those of Zhao, and in history, Qin State also solved the problem of war horses after conquering Zhao State.

If you find a donkey now and cultivate it slowly, within five years, the Qin army's logistical grain and grass transportation will be able to be replaced by donkeys or mules.

"We captured five heads this time, it is said that a Hu merchant came to Xinzheng to do business, brought two donkeys to transport goods, and then because of an accident caused the two donkeys to run away, Hu Shang did not find it, just a few days ago we were encountered by the killer who came back from the mission, and he was caught back because he thought it was strange." The little guy said.

"How many are left?" Ziyou asked.

"There are four left, two males and two females. We're going to breed donkeys like this, and then we can use this as a gimmick. The little guy said. Donkeys are now cherished poultry, and ordinary people may not be able to see them, let alone eat donkey meat.

"These two donkeys have taken good care of me, and I can't let them have the slightest surprise, and I will have the four donkeys taken away when I turn around. You have done great deeds this time, and I will report to the king and reward you. Ziyou said solemnly.

"No, the villain will go and talk to the shopkeeper."

When the little guy said that he was about to go out, Ziyou stopped the little guy

"This donkey that I have now killed has left me some meat, and I will take it with me."

"No."

The little maid pushed the door and left the private room, and Ziyou also picked up the chopsticks again, picked up a piece of donkey meat and put it in his mouth. As the so-called dragon meat in the sky and donkey meat in the ground, this is a rare good thing.

"It's a pity that such good meat has been ruined." Ziyou swallowed the donkey meat and smacked his tongue and said.

As a traverser, if nothing else, this is definitely one of the best in terms of picky taste. For donkey meat, the chef of Ding Xianglou has never seen it, and he doesn't know what to do with it, so he can only treat it as if it was like other meat, and after it is cooked, he put on all kinds of condiments and serve it to Ziyou.

Shao Siming heard Ziyou's words, looked at it, his eyes were smart, as if he was saying that it was so delicious, how could you say that it was a waste.

"That's something you haven't eaten better, and tomorrow at noon, I'll cook you a good donkey meat." Ziyou said with a smile, just kidding, as a crosser who came from later generations, it is still simple to get a meal of donkey meat, the simplest donkey meat hot pot is enough, and there can be no more donkey meat fire.

Shao Siming nodded.

While Ziyou and Shao Siming were still enjoying the food, Flame Spirit Ji, Snow Maiden and Mo Crow had already touched the gathering place of this group of rangers with a group of killers, and looked at the camp established in front of them, and Mo Crow looked at the two aunts and grandmothers beside him. Although Flame Spirit Ji and Snow Maiden are good and don't have to worry about their lives, as a loyal subordinate, if these two aunts and grandmothers are injured or something, Mo Crow feels that this is his own dereliction of responsibility.

There was a slight music in the camp, and the Snow Maiden closed her eyes and nodded slightly

"This is Korean palace music, although the performance technique is a little green, but it is definitely Korean palace music"

"These rangers don't look simple, although their costumes are no different from ordinary rangers, but their behavior is not ordinary rangers, but more like specially trained magnates. And some people wear accessories that are not something that ordinary people can wear. Ink Raven looked at the rangers in the camp ahead and said.

As a killer, Ink Crow's instincts tell him that these people are some very valuable prey.

"These people's accents are Xinzheng accents. The rangers with a Xinzheng accent from other places are so particular about their behavior and service equipment, and there seem to be only so many people in the whole of Korea. The old Korean nobility that ran away in the cleaning. Flame Spirit Ji said, raising a pinch of flame in her palm.

At the beginning, the Qin army received an order not to let go of any powerful people, but after all, these powerful people have been rooted in Korea for a long time, and they are not stupid. In order to prevent themselves from being wiped out and the blood ritual is cut off, they will hide a line, and if the real family is destroyed, this hidden line will inherit the tasks of sacrifice, revenge and revitalization of the family.

"I'll take someone in and see if I can get some information." Ink Raven said.

Snow Girl and Flame Spirit Ji didn't rush to go this time, these rangers are all men, and the two of them are too eye-catching to enter. Ink Raven led the two killers through a disguise and then approached the camp.

After approaching the camp, Mo Crow found that these people were very lax, it could not be said that they were completely unguarded, but it could only be said that the vigilance was not even as good as the bandits in the mountains, and the three of them easily blended into these people's camp.

At this time, a young man in the camp was playing Korean palace music on the guqin. Mo Crow listened carefully to the tune and found that this was Ji Wuye's favorite song at the beginning, as if it was telling the meaning of national hatred and family hatred, and finally the success of revenge. And the reason why Ji Wuye likes this piece is because he thinks that hearing the first half can make him think of the pleasure of destroying Baiyue and himself as a general, and the musicians in the general's mansion at the beginning only played the first half every time he played this song.

As the young men played, some people in the camp let out a cry, their faces covered with tears, and as some began to cry, they also led others to cry. Mo Crow looked at these people with disdain, although some people in the camp were really sad and weeping. But more people just follow the trend, only hearing the cry but not crying.

The people around Mo Crow looked at Mo Crow indifferently and reminded in a low voice

"Brother, hurry up and cooperate and cry twice."

Mo Crow glanced at the little fat man who was dressed as a ranger next to him, and the little fat man was still indifferent when he saw Mo Crow, thinking that he had met some honest person, and reminded him in a low voice

"It's not the first two days this time, you don't want to cry and no one will talk about you. I've heard that the only surviving big man in our Korean clan is also here. If you want to have a good position after the restoration of China, now is a good time to perform. ”

After speaking, the little fat man suddenly burst into tears, crying very realistically, as if his own father was dead, and the whole person trembled from crying. The little fat man's moving cry naturally attracted the attention of the people around him. Seeing this, the ink crow also hurriedly hid his face and cried.

Suddenly, the entire camp was filled with the sound of crying, and the Snow Maiden and Flame Spirit Ji who were outside the camp were slightly stunned.

"What did the crow do?" Snow Maiden asked in a whisper.

"I don't know, maybe it's because I saw Mo Crow, the number one groom of the Qin royal family, these people were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy." Flame Spirit Ji smiled.

The sound of the guqin in the camp stopped, and so did the crying of the crowd. The little fat man next to the crow wiped the tears from his face and whispered to the crow

"Brother, how was I crying?"

"The emotions are real, and the crying is moving." Ink Raven gave the praise of a professional killer.

"Of course, I thought about it just now, my lord who does all kinds of evil, this old thing has enjoyed enough by himself, and he was directly killed by Qin Jun, leaving some money and giving it to his eldest son, and he didn't give me a piece of gold cake!! I'm so miserable!! The little fat man said through gritted teeth.
