Chapter 23
Ye Xun eats the marrow to know the taste. The mental method in this Sunflower Treasure Record makes him feel more and more mysterious in it. At the same time, he also wants to restore the man's body as soon as possible, so he should practice as soon as he has time, but he also knows that the speed The truth is that it is not enough, each practice is just enough, but even so, after the practice, he still has boundless energy.

After finishing speaking, he ignored the two little girls, sat cross-legged on the seat, and then closed his eyes.

In the eyes of the two girls, Ye Xun's behavior was really strange. They were originally sold to Li's mansion, and Li Ruzhen went to war before the training was completed. It's just that the younger sister of the two little sisters is very aggressive and often refuses to obey discipline. They were locked up by the housekeeper of Li's house, and they were going to give them a good education.

But he didn't expect Ye Xun to send people to ransack Li's mansion at this time, and he didn't expect Liang Zhen to take the twins back in order to please Ye Xun.

The family members of the two sisters were all killed by the Tartars, so they hated the Tartars very much. When Liang Zhen and the others robbed the Li family, they were pretending to be Tartar rebels, which made the two girls think that Ye Xun was a Tartar.

These two young ladies, the younger sister is aggressive, but the older sister is very timid.

Seeing that Ye Xun stopped talking to them, the two little sisters crouched in the corner and couldn't stand it any longer. After all, it's not summer yet.

The younger sister glanced at Ye Xun for a while, and seeing that Ye Xun remained still like an old monk in meditation, she gritted her teeth and pulled her sister onto Ye Xun's big kang.

In the north, if there is no kang in the house, it is impossible to survive. The fire below is burning vigorously, and the kang quilt is spread on the top, so it is very comfortable to lie on.

After tossing around for most of the night and being frightened, they finally couldn't stand it anymore, and the two young ladies didn't dare to use Ye Xun's quilt to snuggle together, and fell asleep without knowing it after a while.

Ye Xun, who seemed to be in meditation with his eyes closed, showed an imperceptible smile at the corner of his mouth.

At dawn, Ye Xun, who had completed his work, walked towards the city alone. Liang Zhen and Zhang Qi wanted to follow, but he drove them back to rest.

Knowing that they won 500 taels of silver, these two guys were so excited that they stayed up all night. Ye Xun even pointed at them to contribute, so what if they don't rest well?
It was already dawn, and the general on duty at the top of the city saw Ye Xun coming alone, so he hurried over to pay his respects.

This is a hundred households. Ye Xun remembered that his surname seemed to be Xiang, but he forgot the specific name.

After nodding and saying hello, Ye Xun, accompanied by Xiang Baihu, began to patrol the city.

"Is there still meat and food? Remember, the soldiers and the common people must be fed, and no one can skip it."

"Don't worry, father-in-law, whoever dares to withhold the meat and grain rewarded by the brothers at this time, even if the father-in-law doesn't say anything, the villain will also peel his skin."

"This is the best way, and there will be money donated by the squires in the future, which cannot be deducted either."

Ye Xun came to the side of the city wall while instructing, and looked far into the distance. Since the sky was not completely bright, he couldn't see the Jurchen camp.

Today is the most critical day. If those herbs don't work, then we must face a tough battle. Now it seems that the morale of the army is fine, but after all, there are too few soldiers who can fight, and it is impossible for those who are like wolves and tigers Tartar opponents.

Accompanied by Xiang Baihu, Ye Xun took another look at the firearms and other defensive equipment placed at the top of the city.

Ye Xun remembers reading on Baidu that the reason why firearms in the Ming Dynasty lagged behind the West was mainly in ironmaking. Nowadays, many long and short systems and artillery are made of pig iron, and the barrels and barrels must be refined wrought iron and Steel will do.

Ye Xun has never studied iron smelting, but he still admires the wisdom of his ancestors. He believes that as long as time passes, wrought iron or refined steel can be smelted.

On the day of Ye Xun's rebirth, most of the defensive equipment on the city was used. Fortunately, the Jurchen army was scared away by Ye Xun, so the soldiers and civilians collected a lot of arrows and other equipment from the city. As for the gunpowder, there is no shortage, because Tieling It was originally a guard, and for the needs of war, a gunpowder workshop was built here.

Although the cannon bird system was not satisfactory, but last night's Shenhuo Feiya and Zhentianlei, coupled with today's sight of Shenjijian and Baihu running together, all made Ye Xun sigh at the wisdom of the ancestors .

Ye Xun couldn't help but secretly made up his mind that after the Jurchen army withdrew, he would vigorously develop firearms.

Now in Liaodong, the Ming army is far from being the opponent of the Jurchens in field battles. If the firearms can't keep up, then they will never be able to defeat the Jurchens, and Ye Xun can only watch history repeat itself.

Unknowingly, the sky has completely brightened, and the quiet Tieling City has also become noisy.

After the city gate opened a gap, dozens of knights rode out. This was the first batch of scouts to leave the city. If the Jurchens did not come to attack, there would be a second batch later.

Ye Xun was talking with Xiang Baihu at the top of the city, when he heard the sound of horseshoes in the city, not long before he saw Li Rulong striding up to the top of the city with a smile on his face.

Ye Xun knew that this guy was here to share the spoils, but after all, it was also your old house, so why are you so happy?Besides, the old slave's army is still watching outside, are you really not afraid at all?It didn't look like this yesterday!

"Good morning, Eunuch Ye! I just went to your house, but I didn't expect you to come out so early."

There was still some distance away, Li Rulong greeted loudly.
Seeing Li Rulong gloating at his misfortune, Ye Xun suddenly understood why the Li family chose him as a substitute for the dead. The big family employing people really has its own uniqueness. This guy really has a way to kill.

While sighing, Li Rulong had already come in front of him. After bowing and saluting, he lowered his voice and said, "Eunuch, don't worry, everyone is under control. I guarantee that there will be no leaks. Please tell me what to do next."

Ye Xun squinted at him, there was something in this kid's words!What's the matter, what evidence do you want to leave behind so that you can blackmail me in the future?

As if feeling Ye Xun's displeasure, Li Rulong's expression froze, but then he said: "If my father-in-law wants to get rid of future troubles forever, I will do it in the end."

Ye Xun smiled suddenly, and motioned Li Rulong to follow him to the city wall, looked at the gradually clear outline of the wilderness mountains in the distance, and said: "The silver harvested yesterday is still being counted, and it is estimated that it will not be less than 50 taels. I need this money, but it belongs to your Li family after all, you can send people to move to your house tomorrow!"

"By the way, another notice is issued today, telling the rich gentry and merchants in the city that each family must donate more than a thousand taels of military pay, otherwise the army will no longer be responsible for their safety."

Hearing Ye Xun's words, Li Rulong couldn't help being overjoyed. Although he wanted the money very much, he never thought of taking it alone, because he also knew that he couldn't eat it by himself, but he never expected that Ye Xun would give it to him.

Turning his head, he suddenly realized that this Eunuch Ye thought the food was too ugly and was waiting for him to take the initiative to offer it.

If this is the case, it will be easy to handle. When the money is in hand, take out 10 taels and give it away. Are you afraid that this little eunuch will be dissatisfied?
Greed has confused Li Rulong's mind, so that he didn't notice the murderous intent in Ye Xun's eyes at all.
