Xuanmen Xiaoguo Shi is divination again

Chapter 491

"Wow, my lord, it's still raining today—" the young man pawed at the ridge of the roof pretending to be surprised, "You're not afraid that the fat little Xuetuan's fur will get wet and he won't be able to fly .”

Master Mu could not help but smile when he heard this: "You shouldn't have told me that, you have to be brave and tell Xue Tuan in front of it."

"Don't dare, don't dare, don't dare," Mo Junli waved his hands in horror, "I'm afraid it will get angry, and when I'm not prepared, it will squat on top of my head and throw something that shouldn't be thrown."

For example, this kid has leftover, moldy cuttlebone octopus (cuttlefish bone, bird calcium supplement), or simply used his hair as a toilet.

——This is not acceptable, he has a slight cleanliness fetish, and he doesn't want to be shaved bald.

"Look at how promising you are." Mu Xici smacked her lips in disgust, and the boy followed her disgust and climbed up the pole on the spot: "Well, I'm not promising."

"After all, I'm just a person who eats soft rice - whoever eats soft rice is naturally worthless." Mo Junli propped his head and smiled playfully, "My lord, I'm hungry, beg for food~"

"Okay," Master Mu raised his eyes coolly, "It's raining today, and the leftovers in the small kitchen of Xuanzhong have accumulated for two days, and it seems that I haven't had time to throw them away—"

"I'll get you some here, do you want it?"

"Come on, why don't you have something fresh?" The young man sniffled pitifully, "It's so cold..."

The little girl tilted her head in response: "Then shall I make you something?"

Looking at the half-grown girl holding a paper umbrella in the yard, Mo Junli suddenly thought of the bowl of milk cake that was so sweet and greasy three years ago that it was so earth-shattering, that both humans and gods were angry, and that even real dogs would not eat, and subconsciously trembled shaking again.

The cooking skills of his little master...

It's definitely not that he deliberately disliked it, the key point is that the food made by his little girl is really not for people to eat——

The young man covered his face with trembling hands, and tentatively and hesitantly said: "How about...the leftovers?"

Mu Xici was silent for a moment when he heard this, and almost threw the gauze-piercing paper umbrella in his hand as a sword.

——She thinks this old thing is tired and crooked and wants to die.

Mo Junli saw the little girl's increasingly gloomy face through the rain and fog, and surrendered without hesitation.

He lowered his head and arched his hands, and the edge of the bamboo hat knocked against the green tiles of the roof, making a half muffled sound, the movement passed through the rain curtain and clearly reached the little girl's ears.

"I was wrong, let's talk about seriousness." Mo Junli quickly confessed his love, and the smile on his face also subsided slightly.

Master Mu slightly lowered the edge of the umbrella after hearing this, and the satin cloak that was stained with autumn rain was slightly darkened.

"Is everything settled?" Mu Xici quietly twisted his cuffs, "What requests did your Majesty make?"

"—Ceding the land, paying tribute, withdrawing troops, or something else?"

"That's all, it's not too different from what you just said." The young man lowered his eyelashes and bent his eyes, "The envoys of Hanze knew that they were wronged this time, so they happily gave up the two border towns—"

"The city is very small, and it can't catch up with half of our Qianjing, but it is better because of its large population and prosperous business."

"I think Ye Tianlin ordered this matter in advance, and those two cities made them worth a million taels of gold." Mo Junli pouted as he said, "The new Hanze Lord is really stingy." ghost."

"In addition, Qianping's soldiers and horses must be returned to Yanguan, and Hanze must compensate for the war damage and consume a total of 500 million taels of silver."

"——The old man was stuck with the bottom line of their Hanze treasury, but unfortunately the two cities were worth tens of millions of taels, and only 500 million taels were left. The problem is not too big."

"At the same time, they have to pay us one million taels of silver every year as an annual tribute."

"However, the old man didn't ask for their money, and changed it to something else for the New Year's tribute." At this point, the boy's tone paused slightly.

He raised his eyes to look at the girl in the courtyard, and smiled quietly: "A Ci, guess what the old man asked them for?"

"War horse, basalt," Mu Da Guoshi blurted out without thinking, "and saltpeter mine!"

There are many mines and pastures in Hanze. All the horses bred are fat and strong, with high explosive power and endurance. They are the best choice for military | horses;

——Especially for defensive fortifications such as city walls and watchtowers, based on this, supplemented with plaster and rammed earth, the strength of the city walls made in this way is infinitely higher than that of ordinary brick walls.

With these mines, the city wall of Yanguan can be made stronger and higher by several degrees.

As for saltpeter, the purpose of this thing is even more obvious.

Sufficient horses, stronger walls, plus gunpowder...

The little girl's fingertips trembled uncontrollably, and the ecstasy welling up in her heart made her eyes blush uncontrollably.

With these things, Qianping's military strength will surely rise to another level.

At the same time, this also means that they will have greater capital and stronger power to end this world of great controversy as quickly as possible!
The faster this turmoil is quelled, the fewer soldiers and people will die in the battle.

This troubled world is doomed to be unavoidable, and all they can do is to resolve this doomed battle as soon as possible.

"Yes, our national teacher is indeed very intelligent." Mo Junli hooked the corners of his lips, and praised his girl, and a slightly nasty smile floated from the bottom of his eyes, "A Ci, I will talk to you again." You said something funny."

"When the old man agreed that they would exchange those two small cities for tens of millions of taels of silver, Hanze's group of envoys, except for the saint from Northern Xinjiang, were as happy as sunflowers in full bloom."

"They must have thought that they took advantage this time - after all, the corner of the two cities is not good, there are no good fields and pastures, and there are no useful mineral deposits."

"They probably think that there are only a bunch of low-level merchants there, and they are not worthy of their attention." The young man raised his chin again, "Compared with these two small cities, it may be the war horses and ore that make them feel distressed. "

"Actually they were dead wrong."

"In this game, it is clear that we have made a fortune." Master Mu took the young man's words unhurriedly, and there was a little more cunning in his almond eyes, "Actually, how can the million-year-old tribute No."

"For us now, those two cities are more important."

Hanze in Northern Xinjiang will become their vassal state of Qianping in less than five months, and it will be completely reduced to the boundary of Qianping in a few years. It just sounds better.

But those two border towns with quite a population are different from Sui Gong.

They originally belonged to Hanze, even if they were ceded to Qianping by someone else, the eyes of the people in Hanze would unconsciously focus on them.

The people in the city will personally experience the difference between Qianping and Hanze, and then intentionally or unintentionally convey this difference to their compatriots in the past.

They will become the most typical and vivid examples of a place, and just putting them there is the best proof.

They will quietly arouse people's yearning for a stable life in Qianping.

——Thus, step by step, dismantle the walls in people's hearts.
