Chapter 92: The Bazaar
“…… Cutting down thieves and rebelling will be a strange strategy; Entering the seal and exceeding the position, it is allowed to be honored. The old land of Heyang is the key point of the north gate, but it has a false record and is not prepared to defend it...... Kaifu Yi and the three divisions, Xuchang, Pingdong, and Shaoxun, the military towns of Yuzhou, were loyal and virtuous, both civil and military, and made decisions in the midst of the ten thousand armies, stood up in the heavy city, carried out the punishment of the wilderness, and finally raised the prestige of the great country...... It can make the military of the two states of Yu and Henan to be the governor of the festival, and lead the north Zhonglang general to Zhenheyang, hoping to personally mention the righteous brigade and go straight to the city...... Yu Xun is still the same, and still gives 5,000 households. ”
Before leaving Luoyang, the angel went to the camp to preach the edict and add an official to Shao Xun.
After sending the angel away, Shao Xun frowned, and breathed a sigh of relief after a while.
Fortunately, the Son of Heaven was measured, and he did not let him supervise the military of several states.
Lao Tzu doesn't want to be promoted now, and he messes around all day long.
The military positions of the governor of Sizhou have only been received by Sima Yue, which is to treat me as Sima Yue.
After putting away the edict, Shao Xun groaned.
The imperial court did not explicitly order him to rule where, so it would be good to continue Xuchang.
Now only the three counties of Henan, Shangluo, and Xingyang in Sizhou are in the hands of the imperial court, and Hongnong is only one county in Yiyang.
Considering that it was destined to fight with the Xiongnu in Hongnong, Heyang and other places in the future, it was appropriate to take Xuchang, which was located in Yingchuan, as the place of governance.
Now he is a serious warlord of Heluo, with 18,000 standing troops, nearly 10,000 government soldiers, more than 30,000 Tuntian troops, and 30,000 vassal soldiers.
The imperial court had probably given up on breaking the Xiongnu siege of Luoyang, and entrusted everything to him.
Anyway, Wang Mi probably didn't want to come to Luoyang, after the construction of the three cities of Heyang was completed, the direction of Hanoi turned dangerous, and the princes of Gon were lying flat and rotten.
As for the Son of Heaven - this edict has nothing to do with him, it must have come from the Tai Pavilion and used the Great Seal of the Son of Heaven.
After the Battle of Xin'an, his current situation is almost the same as when Sima Yue imprisoned him. It seems that there is freedom, but in fact, there are not many people's hearts.
But it still can't be taken lightly.
Every once in a while, "loyal ministers" are like leeks, always able to grow a stubble, although the growth is getting worse and worse. But as long as the officials are still moving, and there are scholars from other places entering Beijing to serve as officials, the Son of Heaven can always fool some people to work for him.
That's it for now.
Shao Xun knew very well that his foundation was not the righteousness of the imperial court, but the soldiers who dared to rebel with him and the Yingchuan clan who were deeply bound to him.
On 15 November, he led his troops south through Yique Pass and arrived at Xiangcheng.
……
In the snow, the bazaar is open again.
As the station of the left battalion of the silver spear, Xiangcheng County has long since come out of the bottom valley of the Eight Kings Rebellion and Wang Mi's entry into the Kou.
The seven counties of Xiangcheng are also places where Shao Xun controls more deeply.
The existence of 6,000 families in the Zuoying camp of the silver gun has greatly prospered the local economy, and in addition to the population who have moved from Hebei and Luoyang to the south, after a thorough investigation, there are nearly 17,000 households and more than 90,000 people.
If you count the hidden population of the scholars, it is certain that it will exceed 100,000 - in fact, there are not many scholars in Xiangcheng, and they have all been slowly rectified.
With such a large population and several years of peace, after two consecutive years of good weather, the market of Xiangseong-gun has regained considerable vitality.
On this day, Zhou came to the bazaar early in the morning.
The eldest son of thirteen years old and the second son of eleven years old held their heads high and followed behind their mother.
As the sons of the Silver Spear Army, the status of the two teenagers in the countryside has risen, and the children of the ordinary Tian Shefu family surround the two all day long, led by them, like the kings of the children's group.
It is not surprising that this is the case.
The Silver Spear Army is a recruit, the income is good, there are also booty rewards for fighting, and the fields allocated by the family are the best, and wealth is slowly accumulated.
Half-grown child, which one doesn't call hungry all day? Following Da Ji and Xiao Ji, he can eat from time to time, so he naturally follows them.
This is how the world is.
The news of Chen Gong's class had already spread back to Xiangcheng County, and Zhou decided to kill an old sheep in the family and reward his husband. It just so happens that the Chinese New Year is approaching, and the remaining mutton can be left for the whole family to eat in the first month - uh, in fact, the silver gun Zuoying will stay in Heyang this year, and Zhou's news is obviously wrong.
And after killing the sheep, it is natural to add that the Zhou family is here to buy sheep today.
"Guangcheng Ju, has been born for a hundred and fifty days, can live on his own, no longer breastfeeding, come and see." In the bazaar, a bearded man shouted vigorously.
Behind the big man sat a few people, and there were two large carts with hay piled on them.
In the haystack, the bow tip and the hilt of the knife are faintly exposed. People who have passed by have turned a blind eye, and they can go out to do business without a bow and a knife in these years? It's so normal.
Zhou stopped, looked at the livestock surrounded by the fence, and asked, "How do you sell lambs?" ”
"Two hundred dollars a piece." Seeing that business came to the door, Dahan was overjoyed and said in a loud voice.
"Can you live?"
"Don't worry." The big man patted his chest and said loudly: "All foals and calves have grown for one hundred and fifty days, and lambs have grown for sixty days. ”
"It's too expensive." Zhou shook his head.
"Is this still expensive?" Dahan hurriedly said: "The foals and lambs on the Xiangcheng Princess Village are all famous breeds in Runan. Look at this lamb, it is born with good milk, and it grows big, and it can even be raised as a breeding sheep when it is bought. ”
"It's expensive, one hundred and fifty dollars, I'll buy two. You can't sell it anywhere else, you can only sell it in Luonan and Xiangcheng. Zhou counter-offered.

Dahan hesitated.
They came in the middle of the night, and not a single animal has been sold. Many people just look at it and don't buy it, which makes people irritable. But this woman wanted to buy two, which shows that she has a lot of money.
Moreover, they are right.
If you go somewhere else, you won't be able to sell it.
First of all, the people have no money, and secondly, those households are mostly dependent on the dock fort and manor, and they don't have so much freedom, and many things are not up to them.
Larger estates tend to be "closed-door", with their own craftsmen who prepare all kinds of supplies, and most of the necessities of life can be traded within the estate.
There is really no one, and there is still a communication between the neighboring dock forts and manors.
These estates are either in-laws or trusted allies who have been proven over the years, and have long been accustomed to helping each other.
Although livestock is in short supply, and there is a shortage of any manor, they may not be able to knock on the door of those manors - maybe Princess Xiangcheng can, but they really can't, and they are afraid of being hacked.
The seven counties of Luonan and Xiangcheng are different.
There are a large number of people in these places who are not attached to any dock forts or estates, especially the families of the silver spear army and the government soldiers, and they are relatively wealthy, so they are given the opportunity to trade for profit.
"One hundred and fifty dollars is too little, at least nineteen." Dahan said.
Zhou shook his head and said, "One hundred and fifteen." ”
"One hundred and eighty-five, it can't be less." Dahan said again.
"One hundred and sixteen, no more." Zhou calmly bargained.
At the same time, her eyes were still sweeping over the large livestock.
The bullock that the family ploughs the fields was bought from someone else, and she is already a little old and injured, and she has been thinking about buying a new cow for the past two years.
But a good ploughing ox costs more than 3,000 yuan, which is too expensive and unnecessary. It's better to buy a calf, go back and ask someone to help tam it, and slowly take the place of the old cow.
"Still want to buy cows?" Dahan kept staring at Zhou, and when he saw her looking at the calf, he was a little surprised, and said: "This cow was born in the first month of the year, and it has been three hundred days long, and it can be used as a breeding cow, but it is not cheap." ”
The foals, calves, and lambs born in the lunar month and the first month of the month have always been valued by people - I don't know if there is a scientific reason, but the price is expensive anyway, and they are often raised as stallions, cattle and sheep.
A person passing by next to him, hearing the words of the big man, immediately smiled, and said, "You stupid man, don't you know the lady of the Ji family?" Last month, an auxiliary soldier returned from Heyang and brought back a few silks, which was the reward for the beheading of Ji Shichang of the Silver Spear Army. ”
When Dahan heard this, he was in awe and said, "It turned out to be the family members of the military academy under the Taibai tent, and they were disrespectful." ”
"Have you heard of Taibai too?" Passers-by asked.
"You old man, why do you look down on people?" Dahan said angrily: "Back then, I wanted to join the Silver Spear Army, but people thought I was too gangster, so I didn't accept it." Otherwise, this will already be an official, so why work hard? ”
There were a few people next to him, who laughed when they heard it.
"If it weren't too white, I am afraid that this bazaar would not have been built." Someone sighed.
"In the past few years, how many Luoyang people have come to Xiangcheng for refuge? It's not too white, not to mention that the people of Luoyang came to take refuge, and the people of Xiangcheng also had to run south. ”
"Why did Taibai go to Chen County? Why don't you stay in Xiangcheng? ”
"My son will be seventeen next year, see if I can send it to the Silver Spear Army. They don't want veterans, they only accept new people, and my son might be recruited. ”
"Die, just that kid in your family who can be blown down by the wind, can you still enter the Silver Spear Army?"
The crowd burst into laughter again.
Seeing that there were more and more people, Zhou was a little impatient, and said: "One hundred and seventy yuan, two, I will buy it sincerely, and I can't give a sentence." ”
"One hundred and eighteen." Dahan was puzzled: "The livestock on the Xiangcheng Princess Village is not cheap to buy. ”
Zhou insisted on one hundred and seventeen.
The two argued, and finally in the long sigh of the big man, it was sold for 177 yuan.
Da Ji and Xiao Ji hugged the lamb and followed behind their mother happily.
The acquaintances I met on the road all cast envious eyes at them.
became a silver spear army, ate and drank without worry, and the life of his family is getting better and better year by year, which is really enviable.
However, in the final analysis, it is still Chen Gong who is powerful.
In the early years, the Xuchang shogunate also came to Xiangcheng to recruit troops, so it would still be Fan Yang Wang Yu as the governor, right? It's a pity that I didn't get a few back in the end, and most of them don't even know where they died.
People are more angry than people.
Chen Gong is a god who came into the world, God has given military strategy, and he uses soldiers like gods, and he is naturally invincible to fight with him.
The king of the Sima clan still forgot it, and led people to the dead end all day long, which was too far behind Chen Gong.
Unbelief? Duke Chen asked the princess of the Sima family to give birth to a son for him, but King Fan Yang didn't even have a daughter until he died, and the winner was different.
The cold wind howled and rolled up the snow on the ground.
On the northern horizon, an army looms.
