Chapter 308 Xiao Zongqi's Plan

The military salary of the Zhenbei Army has been tight for many years. Even if the crown prince supervises the country now, the household department can no longer be too harsh, and it is impossible to fill up the previous hole at once.

And seeing that it was the end of the new year, any guard had to find a way to raise food and money for the army, including the Guangbao Guard where he was now.

Among the several large guards, only Sui Jin Wei Yin has the most money.

The newly built military houses made every soldier envious.

Xiao Zongqi knew what Sui Jinwei was like before.

He saw with his own eyes that Suijinwei couldn't even pay 50 taels of silver for his salary, and even had people block the gate of the camp. It's only been a year now, and the army's salary is no longer in arrears, and even his wife can buy it to make a big fuss.

If he hadn't become a powerful figure in Guangbao, he would definitely regret it.

Suijin Town can live a good life, except for the military salary of the imperial court, the role of the Song family is the most indispensable.

Song Liyun was the first to sell fur goods for the guard.

"Miss Song, if you want to come to the grassland to buy leather goods, why don't you ask Luo Baihu to issue a warrant, so that the patrol brothers everywhere can help you, so you don't have to worry about it."

Xiao Zongqi led Song Liyun and Song Dekui to the next tent with an amiable attitude.

Wu Dong and the others were stunned. Xiao Zongqi was transferred from Suijinwei. He has always been arrogant, very domineering, and rarely speaks so kindly to others.

Song Liyun didn't want to say that he wanted to go to the Mida River Valley to inquire about his lover, so he could only say: "In addition to buying leather goods, I also want to contact some beef and mutton, and I can buy a large amount of them next month."

When Xiao Zongqi left Suijinwei, the Song family only sold green vegetables and acorn noodles, and resold some leather goods, and did not operate Tianxianglou.

Now that he heard that he wanted to buy mutton, he couldn't help being surprised and said: "The mutton Sui Jinwei wants to eat has its own source, so why do you need to go to the grassland to buy it?"

He also knew about the Wuda tribe, but he didn't know about Zhao Tingduo's marriage proposal.

Song Liyun smiled lightly and said, "I'm currently in charge of Tianxiang Building in Qili County. Tianxiang Building is owned by the Suijin Guard and the county government. The business is good. Fresh mutton is needed every day. The live sheep sent by the guard alone are not enough."

Xiao Zongqi's eyes suddenly burst into a bright light. Of course he knew Tianxiang Restaurant in Qili County, but it was a famous restaurant.

In a blink of an eye, Xiao Zongqi remembered the military newspaper a few months ago, which mentioned that Tianxianglou colluded with bandits and committed the tragedy of Suijin Town.

Tianxianglou was taken over by the Broken Golden Guard!

The cattle and sheep of a Wuda tribe are not enough to sell. How big a way to make money is that?
At this time, Xiao Zongqi's heart was burning hot, and he looked at Song Liyun as if he was looking at the God of Wealth who could turn stones into gold.

The Guangbao Guardhouse is one or two hundred miles away from Suijin Town. Like the Suijin Guard, it also guards the two mountain passes leading to the grassland during the Wu Dynasty.

Similarly, there is also a small market here, relying on the guard.

In Xiao Zongqi's eyes, although the small market is not as good as Qili County, it is better than the dilapidated Suijin Town.

As soon as he arrived in Guangbao, he sold the shop and let his family take care of it.

Not bad, not bad, barely earning more than one or two taels of silver a month.

Xiao Zongqi calculated that he had the cattle and sheep on the Xiaoba grassland in his hands, and if he could get the business of buying mutton from Song Liyun, he would have a good business that would guarantee the harvest in drought and flood.

It is also called Xiaoba Grassland, because it is a pasture, not only the herdsmen of the Wu Dynasty, but also the herdsmen of the Di nationality come here, and the Zhenbei Army patrols all the year round.

It's just that it's cold now, and the herdsmen of the Wu Dynasty have gone back to the mountains for the winter, and there are still Di tribes left on the grasslands. Where there are tribes, there are cattle and sheep...

He didn't think about whether the Di tribe would be willing to hand over their cattle and sheep. Anyway, allowing these barbarians to live in Xiaoba to this day is considered tolerant by the Wu Dynasty.

Otherwise, the person will be left directly to raise sheep for the guard...

Suijin Town and Wuda Tribe are not exactly like this, and they can do the same.

"Miss Song, don't worry, now your Uncle Xiao is someone powerful in Guangbao. From now on, all the cattle and sheep in this atomic area will be mine. If you want it, just say so, and you can come and get it at any time." Xiao Zongqi patted Chest way.

Song Liyun raised her eyebrows. She had heard from Abu that herdsmen basically depended on dairy products for their daily life. Except for old cattle and sheep that no longer gave birth, cattle and sheep cannot be easily slaughtered unless there is enough food.

Now Xiao Zongqi wants to buy all the cattle and sheep of these Di tribes. If the problem of food is not solved, the people of one tribe may starve to death.

It's just that Xiao Zongqi is in the mood for big bags now, so she can't say too much, just nodded and agreed: "Okay, if Tianxianglou needs mutton in the future, please ask Xiao Zongqi for help."

When the man was found, Xiao Zongqi was not in a hurry to return to the guard, but asked the Kun tribe to kill a sheep and cook it in a pot.

In the evening, in the tent specially held for Song Liyun and Xiao Zongqi, a long table was set up, with large pieces of cooked mutton and milk wine piled up on it.

Apart from the two distinguished guests Song Liyun and Xiao Zongqi, Song Dekui and Wu Dong were also sitting with them.

The head of Kunbu is called Balin, and he is in his 30s.

At this time, he took his wife, a beautiful woman, to wait on the guests to eat mutton.

Use a knife to cut the mutton into slices from the bones, and then wrap some dark green grass sauce in a wooden bowl on the meat slices, and you can eat them directly.

Song Liyun tasted this way of eating at the Uda camp at the mouth of the Huangsha River valley.

The beggar said that this is the wild leek flower sauce unique to the grassland.

Salt and tea are precious items on the grasslands, and it is not easy for small tribes to buy them from caravans.

This kind of wild leek, which blooms all over the grassland in August, has a special pungentness, can replace salt, and can also satisfy the lack of vitamins caused by the lack of vegetables.

Every tribe will collect and mash it into sauce during this time, which can be eaten for a year.

It was the first time for Song Dekui to go to the grassland, and he was attracted by the strange food. He didn't need anyone to wait on him, and he cut the meat with a knife.

The headman Bahrain put the sliced ​​meat in front of Song Liyun respectfully, and said in stiff Wu Dynasty dialect: "The fattest mutton is dedicated to the most distinguished guests."

Song Liyun nodded in gratitude: "Thank you for your kindness!"

Bahrain offered mutton to Xiao Zongqi again, with the same rhetoric, and added another sentence: "Xiao Zongqi, I hope you will take care of it in the future!"

Xiao Zongqi laughed: "Don't worry, you just live here, I can help you with food shortages and so on."

Bahrain immediately beamed with joy, and thanked Xiao Zongqi repeatedly.

Song Liyun glanced at him: What does this Bahrain mean? Doesn't he know that Xiao Zongqi is already plotting against him?

After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, Bahrain said what he meant during the conversation.

After all, Bahrain is young and energetic, much bolder than the old man of the Redstone tribe.

When the Mida River Valley was in chaos, he took his family and tribe to Xiaoba Grassland.

This is not only the grassland, but also under the sword of Zhenbei Army.

Bahrain knew that the Wuda tribe, which is now in the limelight, was defeated in the grassland battle and was worse than his current tribe. In the end, it relied on the Wu Dynasty to survive and grow.

He also has the same thoughts.

There are now more than 50 men, women and children in the Kun tribe. If they settle down and allow women to have children, the number of tribes will double in 20 years.
