When he arrived in Xiping, Yang Lin fell ill.
This veteran of the military and horse life, suffered such a big loss in Lingwu, died so many subordinates, and Shuijianling worked day and night, this disease is bedridden.
General Luo Fang, temporarily acting as Yang Linxing's head coach, comforted the tribe, inquired about the enemy's situation, presented to the court, and he did everything he did.
Qin Meng was extremely low-key, and Shangfeng would only respond when he found him when it came to military affairs. All extra words, no words, extra things, no actions.
Even if it is a matter of its own, it is necessary to ask for more instructions and report more, and only start to do it after the peak.
In short, on one principle, do things with their tails clamped. It seemed that a little daughter-in-law had just entered the gate of her in-law's house, showing caution everywhere.
Qin Meng's Jianzi Erying, he also strictly controlled, and asked to be more careful in doing things like himself.
The standard of treatment will not change. But when you eat meat and drink, close the door. Just make a lot of money by muffled voice, don't yell five or six, so that the whole city knows that you are eating out.
Such strict requirements are really hard for subordinates to understand.
During a meeting of officers for discussion, Zhou Lie directly asked this question: "General, we are in Xiping, but we risked our death to save the army in the army. Wherever we put this credit, it's a big deal. Brothers are arrogant. Crazy, there are occasional improper behaviors, this is a fact, but there is no need to suppress it, right?"
Qi Yuan persuaded: "Zhou Lie, how come you have not made any progress after following the general for so long? Commander, all the generals in the Chinese army will be here. In addition to the new defeat, if our department is like a big victory orgy, if you are General, how should you think about it?"
Zhou Lie scratched his head and squatted his mouth and said, "It seems to make sense. That's it, just like the general's request. It is enough to strictly control the subordinates. In addition, the Jianzi Second Camp has damaged many brothers and supplemented the newcomers. , It's always going on, right?"
Qin Meng thought for a while and said: "Don't add it for now, it's not appropriate to make a noise. Sun Mao, Wei Da, and you are the original Xiping garrison system. For all the city defense affairs, you have to work harder. Something is going on. Please consult with General Luo’s licensing officer, so you don’t have to look for me. Xie Yun, Zhou Lie, you two need to take turns to control our manpower, drill, run a few laps in the camp every day, and it’s over. Qi Yuan , Back up the gift, and go with me to see General Huang."
Everyone took their orders to retreat. Qi Yuan prepared a generous gift, followed Qin Meng, sneaked to the Chinese army garrison, met the guards, reported his name, and begged to see Huang Kun.
After a while, Huang Kun went out in person and greeted Qin Meng with a smile on his face.
Qin Meng didn't dare to neglect, he immediately saw the ceremony: "Rely on the front of the palace of the mountain king to join the generals, restraint..."
Before Qin Meng finished speaking, Huang Kun had already arrived in front of Qin Meng, reached out and took Qin Meng's hand, and said affectionately: "How can a virtuous brother be born like this? Could it be that Huang should not be a virtuous brother?"
Qin Meng unconsciously sighed that Da Xi Changru had also spoken like this before, and that virtuous brother, like a father and brother, made people feel warm.
And Huang Kun's tone was so sincere, but how he listened, it smelled of mundane contact.
"This... what is the status of General Huang? The humble position is just a general, why dare..."
Huang Kun said with a straight face: "The virtuous brother's words are wrong. Which one of the father and king's men is not from the ranks of the army? All the top generals are all made with one shot. With the merits of the virtuous brother, I am afraid that the foolish brother will also rely on it in the future. Follow it. Could it be that Brother Xian thinks Brother Yu will not be able to climb high?"
At this point, Qin Meng had no choice.
Qin Meng knelt down on one knee, arching his hands over his head: "Little brother has seen elder brother."
Huang Kun laughed and hurriedly pulled Qin Meng up: "Don't be polite, don't be polite, come and come, virtuous brother, let's talk inside."
Qi Yuan saw Huang Kun drag Qin Meng into the Chinese army camp and waved his hand to follow along with the gifts.
Huang Kun led Qin Meng into his inner room and placed a fruit plate at the reception to entertain Qin Meng.
"Brother Xian, I'm looking for my brother this time, but what supplies do I need?" Huang Kun asked directly.
"Brother, now the army is here, and everyone who needs to be cared for must stretch out their hands to my brother at this time, how can my younger brother stretch out his hands again? Now, there are several things that require my brother's help."
"Haha. There are indeed a lot of people who reach out to Brother Yu, but who is the brother? Even if Brother Yu gives more, who dares to do? In terms of supplies, the virtuous brother can rest assured and allocate to you, there is only more, not less. That's right. , Just now, Xiandi said that he needs Brother Yu's help, I don't know what it is?"
Qin Meng didn't expect to receive such treatment in Huang Kun's place today. The things originally planned seemed to be bolder.
"Brother, let's go to a place with my younger brother, and all the things that asked for my brother are there." Qin Meng said, giving Huang Kun a meaningful look.
Huang Kun had some doubts, but did not ask deeply, followed Qin Meng to the blacksmith team.
Looking at the blacksmith team, Huang Kun smiled and said, "Brother Xian, could it be the saber thing?"
Qin Menggong said sincerely: "Brother, this is one of them. Last year, the younger brother detained the merchant's iron sand. He drove a lot of money in and set up the stall. On that day, he owed a lot of debt."
Huang Kun smiled faintly: "A small matter, all expenses, list items, and report to me. Although Yu brother needs to report to the prince, it is not a big problem, just rest assured."
Qin Meng smiled and said, "I invite my brother to come, because I want to invite my brother to see a new object."
Seeing Qin Meng glance at him, Qi Yuan immediately understood and turned around and set out.
Qin Meng led Huang Kun to a small room with two large iron pots, one with meat stewed in it, and the other with charcoal fire. It's burning with smoke.
Huang Kun looked at the iron pot and said, "Brother Xian, let me see this thing?"
"Exactly! Brother, you'll know in a moment."
Qin Meng asked Huang Kun to sit down and set a small table. After a while, dishes made in iron pots were served.
Huang Kun is a quartermaster of the army, what is delicious and delicious
However, Huang Kun is full of praise for the pan-fried, fried, fried dishes.
"Brother virtuous, such an object, it's so real. I don't know what the virtuous brother wants, but you can say it straight, foolish brother, but he has the ability, and he will give his help."
Qin Meng said that he wanted to use an iron pan to do business and subsidize military swords.
Huang Kun thought for a while, frowned and said, "My brother, this pot is made of iron and involves salt and iron. It must not be controlled by the court. If it is only for military use, even if it requires a nod from the prince, my brother dare to slap his chest and promise to let you open. Do it. But if it involves businesses, I'm afraid that the court is very large, and it may even shock the emperor."
Qin Meng smiled and said, "This matter is easy for my brother. What kind of person is my brother? You must know a lot of important people in the capital. You only need to give the key people the iron pot. It is clear that the iron pot business is controlled by the military. To compensate for the lack of forging soldiers, even if this matter is known to the sacred master, all the ministries in charge only need to say clearly, and it will be safe."
Huang Kun took a deep breath and said for a while: "This iron pot is magical and is given as a gift everywhere. I can settle a lot of criticism. However, if we put aside the business and the army is solely operating, wouldn't the profit be greater?"
Qin Meng secretly admired the fact that there was Lin Kejun before and Huang Kun now. It is really possible to directly capture the essence of business and monopolize the business. It is indeed possible to maximize profits.
"My brother had thought that if the military were to operate alone, the profit would be much smaller."
"Oh? What do you say?"
"Brother, I don’t need to say that iron pots are sent everywhere. If you buy iron pots, these expensive items can be bought by ordinary people? Those who can afford it must be rich and noble. The rich and noble circle is also right. It’s the circle where my brother is. It’s about face and favors. How much profit can I make? Those who really make huge profits are the barbarians. If you sell a pot of twelve golds, there will be people who are eager. My brother and I are the army. Can the people in China do business with the barbarians?"
Huang Kun was dumbfounded, and after watching Qin Meng for a while, he laughed and said, "The virtuous brother's mind is really exquisite. That's right, only private merchants can go barbaric and make huge profits. Just a little, virtuous brother, don't do anything with him. The merchants used to be very close, nothing happened, just take the money, if there is something, just ask the merchant directly."
Qin Meng's heart was agitated. Isn't this an improved version of the so-called temporary worker? It seems that this kind of system is not unique to modern times. The ancients had already made this set perfect.
"Naturally, what you say, you can't hurt your brother, your prince, and your reputation in the Sui army? Brother, there are more than ten iron pots, but you can send it to the generals in the army to stop these people. Mouth, brother is the next step."
Huang Kun laughed: "Brother Xian, you are really cautious in doing things. However, this is in your place, and it is the object you made. Brother Yu takes your things as favors. This is not good, right? ?"
Qin Meng grinned and said, "My brother has to say something like this. Now, I can't wait to shut myself out of the house. All ministries are newly defeated, losing soldiers and soldiers, full of complaints, and nowhere to vent. Here, I have my brother looking up. If you take care of it, it’s a strange thing that you don’t attract people’s hatred. I also asked my elder brother to come forward and speak nice things for the younger brother."
Huang Kun nodded and said: "Well, brother, you are too popular. The prince has invited you to join forces with him, and he has done a lot of work. He will definitely pay attention to promoting. At this critical moment, it is very necessary to be cautious and low-key. Don't worry, if there is a brother, he will be fair to you."
Speaking of this, Huang Kun pondered for a moment, and then said: "If you are gagging people, then be generous. Give all the generals a copy of your war sword here. Under the prince, Ruoxian's brother has a strategy in mind. Not many, mostly rough, ordnance is much better than ceremonies."
Qin Meng agreed, and quickly asked Qi Yuan to prepare and prepare all the things that needed to be delivered. When Huang Kun left, all the messengers were sent to Huang Kun's place.
Not to mention, with Huang Kun's mediation, Qin Meng felt that his situation was much better.
When I see the generals of the Chinese army, they usually have good looks. Even if they don't have a good color, they can nod their heads. It's not like giving you big eyebrows when they are common. (End of this chapter)
