Chapter 428 Guards
Bodyguard?

Xie Jue narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Su Yue groaned, and said to Xie Jue, "You mean the same as Xiao Tang?"

"It's different, I don't want to be his subordinate, I'm your bodyguard." Ling Chuanye continued to smile innocently.

Xie Jue's eyes narrowed into a line.

"You are my friend, not anyone's subordinate. If it wasn't for you, we wouldn't be able to escape this time." Su Yue said with a serious face, "It's okay if you don't want to eat free time and do a job, but, You are no one's slave!"

Ling Chuanye looked at her, thinking that when she was recuperating in the Hou's mansion, she would chat with him when she was free. He occasionally said that he actually didn't want to follow his father's path.

My father wholeheartedly wanted to be a samurai, and believed that a samurai was a glorious ancestor who could clear up the grievances of their clan.

But he thought it was just a change from one kind of slave to another, slightly more respectable kind of slave.

He doesn't want to be that kind of person, that kind of person who has everything in the hands of others, has no freedom of his own, and whose life and actions are controlled by others, completely incapable of autonomy...

He didn't want to live like that.

Unexpectedly, she always remembered...

However, this time, it was his own choice. As long as he can be by her side, what's the point of being her slave?
Xie Jue glanced sideways at Su Yue, his eyes were full of tenderness and pampering, and when he raised his head again, it became deserted again, and said to Ling Chuanye: "You have made the first effort in passing that cave this time, General Zhao said Now, we can't ignore your credit. We will also share with you the things in the cave. If you want to withdraw at one time, I will give you 30 coins now. If you want to invest in that port, then you can Withdraw [-] guan first, and then you can withdraw [-] guan every year."

With so much money, you are still Mao's guard, hurry up, what should you do with the money after revenge!
Ling Chuanye raised his eyebrows at him and said with a smile: "That's it, I'll leave those with the girl. When I need them, I'll ask the girl for them. Usually, I have a guard's salary, which is enough."

He only mentioned the passage to save Su Yue. Besides, it was not because of his strength that the intricate hole could pass through. The most important contribution was Xie Jue's alertness and judgment, as well as the strength of those guards.

(God knows how regretful he was when he was in the cave. If he had known how dangerous it was down there, he would rather take Su Yue up the mountain than that cave!)
Therefore, he never thought about sharing the treasures in the cave at all.

However, now that Xie Jue and Zhao Hao wanted to share it with him, he would not refuse, and it happened to be Su Yue's private house.

He also heard some sayings in the Hou Mansion, such as that a woman's dowry is her own, and married women also have to rely on money.

But guards still have to be done!
Looking at Ling Chuanye's smile, Xie Jue's eyelids were twitching, and he suppressed the anger in his heart, nodded and said, "So, Yue'er's subordinates also have their own guards, and Yue'er pays his own salary. You follow their orders."

"Okay!" Ling Chuanye smiled brilliantly.

"Then, it's not too late." Xie Jue twitched his lips and pointed to the outside.

What are you waiting for?Go to the study!
Ling Chuanye snorted, blinked at Su Yue, then got up, took the porridge bowl from Bai Lu's hand, and walked out quickly without any hesitation.

Xie Jue took a deep breath, put his hands on the kang and tried to get up.

"Third Master." Su Yue grabbed him lightly, and called out worriedly seeing the pain in his eyebrows.

With such an injury, can't you rest?

Xie Jue's anger dissipated instantly, and he turned his head and smiled softly at her and said, "It's okay, I'll go and lie down after we've settled the matter."

The voice paused, and Xie Jue continued: "Today's matter is a little urgent. If we don't handle it well, Zhao Hao will be passive when he goes back."

Su Yue's brows twitched slightly, and said in a low voice, "Duke Zhen?"

Xie Jue hummed, and said in a low voice: "Do you still remember the terrain of Yanzhou I told you about? If Zhao Hao can control Wucheng and Jinzhou Yanzhou, then we can also open one in the inner bay of Yanzhou The port, the terrain here is remote, there are few people and the land is barren, as long as Zhao Hao can clean it up, then it will be much more convenient for us to bring grain from the south, the grain of Song Dynasty cannot be collected and transported wantonly, but there is a lot of grain in Jiaozhi."

The port in Yeluqi is convenient for access to Beirong. Although it is not far from Song Dynasty, after all, there is a Yanshan Mountain in the middle. In terms of road and convenience, it is still not as good as the inner bay port of Yanzhou.

He specially came to Jinzhou this time, apart from looking for Shi Jingtian and looking at the commercial routes of Aye City, he mainly wanted to visit Yanzhou from here.

When the first prince was still there, he also had the idea of ​​reclaiming wasteland in the sixteen prefectures of the border, in order to ensure the ration needs of the frontier army, so at that time, he specially sent people to re-explore some places.

It’s just that those people reported at the time that most of the sixteen prefectures along the border are high mountains and desert grasslands. The food in the country is very limited, but the manpower required is huge, which is not much worse than the cost of transporting food from the south.

At that time, the discussion was put aside, and even those maps were discarded.

It's just that he was already six years old at the time, but he became interested in those maps. Before the prince ordered them to be destroyed, he had seen them for fun. What impressed him the most at that time was the coastline of Yanzhou.

After traveling the sea for many years and seeing too many ports, he realized that it was an excellent port, and after hearing Ling Chuanye say that Yeluqi built the port, a route was formed in his mind.

The two ports on this side of Yanzhou and outside the pass happen to be symmetrical across a bay.

Not to mention the convenience of transporting grain from the south, if the inner bay port on the Yanzhou side can be established, then horses and other goods traded from Beirong can be boarded at the outer port and then disembarked directly at the inner port. Even the capital of the country couldn't find it, so it was sent directly to Zhao Hao's elite troops.

But to achieve this, not only in opening up wasteland and building a port, but also in subsequent transportation, in addition to manpower and confidentiality, all must have the full support of the frontier army.

He said that opening up wasteland was to test Zhao Hao's attitude, and that the Yeluqi port also depended on Zhao Hao's determination, and finally, Yanzhou port was mentioned.

At that time, Zhao Hao's expression was deep, and he nodded after pondering for a while.

Then I mentioned some things that I hope he can help.

As soon as those things were said, he understood that Zhao Hao was going to seize power from Lord Zhen Guo.

Taking advantage of the fact that the Beirong people are ready to move this time, and taking advantage of the war that will inevitably come next year, he will completely control the power of the frontier army in his own hands.

Zhao Hao can make such a determination, he is naturally obliged to help, but those things are all rushed.

No matter how painful it is, he will endure it.

That bastard Zhao Hao, why don't you hold back!
After thinking about it carefully, Su Yue realized how important Xie Jue was talking about.

This is tantamount to building a new Tianjin Port, forming a corner with Liaodong Bay. In this way, not only can the trade with Beirong and Korea be opened, but also materials from the south can directly enter the border state.

The most important thing is food!
In this battle in the previous life, the frontier army suffered heavy losses because of insufficient military rations, and in the war ten years later, even the soldiers broke through and entered, and the military equipment and military rations also accounted for a large part of the reason.

In his previous life, it was Zhao Hao who fought alone and supported him at the border. No matter how brave and skilled he was, he couldn't turn the tide.

And now...

Su Yue's eye sockets were a little wet. This was the second time that she felt sincere joy at being reborn.
