Satin porcelain, please send it along. I don't care whether the business of the two of you brothers is profit or loss in the future. "Since filling up the old fourteen without a trace, no one can say anything.

Who knows if the business plan proposed by the old fourteen was decided by him in a moment of foolishness? I don't know what the result will be. Even if I leave a mess, I, the father, can take care of him. As for the rules of the ancestors, can he still not know? There are no express regulations, so the old fourteen likes to mess around, so let him do it.

Ming Ye was overjoyed, and bowed to salute: "Thank you, Father!"

Although the emperor said that he would not participate in everything, Ming Ye had already made up his mind that it would be fine if the business was not successful. If he could continue to do it in the future and make a profit, he would still have to take the share for his fourteenth brother in the end. Only half of the time should be filial to the father.

The fourteenth brother is not by Father's side, and now the father can still think about Fourteen, but the king's heart is unpredictable, and no one can guarantee what will happen in the future with such a holy favor. Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king, he can see clearly, so he will be careful and never make a wrong step. Since the fourteenth brother can't think of this, then as an older brother, he should think more rationally for him.

This matter has passed the emperor's mouth, and it is considered to be a clear path. In this way, others will not dare to say any bitter words.

At this time, Ming Ye didn't know how far-sighted his decision was. In the future, when Mingyu's caravan grows bigger and bigger, its profits will even be envied by the emperor, let alone other people. However, in the name of the emperor, it is impossible for other people to intervene even if they are jealous.

And when Mingyu's wings gradually matured and he established a firm foothold in Liangzhou, no one dared to move the slightest bit. Because of Ming Yu's strong support from behind, he is firmly seated on the crown prince's position, and no one among the many brothers can shake his position.

Xu Wen finally cleared up most of the doubts, and it was almost past noon. Qingping urged several times to pass the meal, but they were stopped by the two people who were talking, and finally waited for the two to talk. When it came to an end, Ming Yu asked Ming Yu to talk about it after dinner.

Ming Yu had no choice but to pass on the meal, and invited Xu Wen to eat with him. Xu Wen couldn't shirk it, thinking that he would have to discuss something later, so he agreed with kindness. These days, King Duan has not put on any airs, and Xu Wen is also at ease. The two of them get along like a teacher and a friend, and they complement each other.

The two rushed through the meal and discussed some details. This matter could not be completed overnight, but because Xu Wen had never heard of Ming Yu's plan, Ming Yu had to spend more time explaining it for him.

Not long after, it was reported that it was General Ji You who asked to see him.

Kiyu? Ming Yu was taken aback, didn't General Ji go back to the Red Robe Army for reinstatement? Immediately, he came to his senses, thinking that the matter he had given to General Ji last time had been settled, so he hurriedly ordered someone to come in.

Ji You took Cao Jian into the house to meet King Duan. Ji You followed the prince for a while, but he was not as reserved as Cao Jian who had just arrived in front of Ming Yu. , the above has already explained the dispatch of Ji You and Cao Jian to the Duanwang Guard Camp for training.

"It's only been three months?" Ming Yu looked at the transfer order, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. What can the three-month professor teach the people below? The time is too short, he originally thought that he could be seconded for a year or so.

Ji You has black lines all over his head, three months is not a short time, if it is longer, he would not want to come.

"Your Highness, if you are sent, just ask, we will do our best." Ji You said with his hands clasped.

Ming Yu nodded. He also heard some rumors about this General Xie. He heard that this person is very lonely and arrogant. People, Ming Yu pouted. He made this request at the beginning with the attitude of giving it a try. If he agreed to it, it would be considered as a face to him. Anyway, after three months expired, he could have the cheek to borrow someone again!

He stood up and said with a smile: "I still have to trouble General Ji and General Cao. Our training base has already been almost built. It is better to hit the sun if we choose a day. Why don't we go there together to see the situation and decide what to do next?"

He and Xu Wen had almost discussed it. It was still early, and anyway, he was thinking about the training base, so we happened to go to have a look together.

When Xu Wen heard this, he was also full of curiosity. He heard Ming Yu say that it would take two to three months for the common people to be trained into a soldier, but he didn't believe it. I really want to see what the training base that Ming Yu is talking about looks like

How could Ming Yu not know, and he didn't intend to leave Xu Wen, Ji You and Cao Jian naturally obeyed, so Ming Yu ordered people to prepare a light car and set off immediately.

The training base is ten miles outside Liangcheng, next to a village called Baicun.

These days, there is a strange thing that the people of Bai Village talk about. Every day before dawn, when the cock crows, a group of people will run around the road in front of the village, and when they come back, the sky is already slightly bright.

At the beginning, the common people didn't know what was going on, and all the curious people in the village came out to watch the excitement. Later, it was like this every day, rain or shine, so it was nothing unusual. All they knew was that this group of people had passed by the village, and they It's time to start a new day of work.

Later they also learned that this team seemed to be a royal guard from the court, and a military camp was set up on the back of a hill across their village.

18. Chapter 18

The villagers also don't understand, shouldn't the army that protects the prince protect the prince? Why are you stationed outside the city? However, it is not their turn to intervene in these major matters. Since they were stationed here, people who look like generals have come to them to buy some eggs, chickens, ducks and livestock.

The villagers have never dealt with such high-ranking officials. The chickens and ducks they managed to raise and all the eggs they laid were stored. The family members were reluctant to eat them, so they sold them in the city, and then bought some for home use. . They are closer to Zhuoliang City, and their conditions are better. They can also have a little surplus food to raise some livestock, which can improve the living conditions of the family. I heard that some remote places can't even support people, how can there be any spare energy to support other people

The general's surname was Mo, and it was Mo Jiang. After he said his future intentions, the villagers discussed a lot, and couldn't make up their minds for a while. They are generals sent by officials, and I heard that they are still from the capital, if they don't follow their wishes, it may bring some disaster to their Bai village. But if they agree, what if the money they give is too low, or they simply renege on the debt? Seeing that autumn is about to enter, it is time for families, big and small, to buy some things to keep out the cold. In this way, how can we collect all the money

The villagers looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one dared to say yes. Mo Jiang looked at Cunzheng, who also had a perplexed look on his face.

Mo Jiang was also surprised, what's so embarrassing? Aren't all these things of the villagers going to be sold? What's the difference between selling to them and selling to the city? What's more, they don't need the villagers to go all the way to the city to sell it. This is a good thing that can't be asked for. Why do these people still look reluctant

If His Highness hadn't told you that the meals of the soldiers in the base must be a combination of meat and vegetables, so what nutrition should be followed? How could he make such a trip and come here to discuss with the villagers, just because he was afraid that the people below would not be able to do things well? .

Originally, they could also go to the city to buy these things, but after thinking about the daily consumption of the soldiers, it would take time and effort to buy these things every time they go to the city, so they might as well go to a few nearby villages to buy them. If the cooperation is good, One thing does not bother two masters, and long-term cooperation in the future can also save a lot of trouble.

"Is there something difficult for the villager?" Mo Jiang simply asked openly.

"This..." The villager thought for a long time before he hesitated and said: "The life of the villagers is also very tight. There are not many people in the village for the things you want, General. I still have some eggs in my house. I will take them now." Come out and hand it over to the general."

Muramasa gritted his teeth and said this ruthlessly, thinking that he could get rid of these people by losing something. It's just that he doesn't know if they will be satisfied. If they take it by force, he can only try his best to say something good to save the villagers from losing a little.

There aren't many things he wants to buy in the village? This made Mo Jiang wonder. He had inquired a long time ago. Most of the poultry eggs in the city were sold by the villagers around here. He came here specially to collect them. How could there not be many

Mo Jiang looked at the vigilant expressions of the surrounding villagers, and after a little thought, he had already understood, and with a slight smile, he already had a plan in his mind.

At this time, the younger generation of the villager Zheng's family had already brought a basket of eggs, and the villager took it, twitching his face, and handed it to Mo Jiang with great reluctance, "General, this is a little wish from us, I hope you can accept it."

Mo Jiang smiled and said: "Cunzheng, I am here to buy things. You have to count a basket of eggs so that you can buy them at the price you sell in the city." After finishing speaking, he called the soldiers behind him to count up the quantity.

When the villager held the copper coin in his hand, he couldn't believe it. He didn't expect that they really came to buy eggs, and they paid 10% more than the price in the city. This is much more cost-effective than taking them to the city. Think about it, it will take a lot of time to transport these things to the city, and they may not be able to sell them all after entering the city. Selling it really saves a lot of things.

The thoughtful villagers rolled their eyes, who is not selling it to? then hurried back
