Chapter 207 Conditions
"Seriously, is there enough food in your city now?"
As soon as Lu Zhi heard this, he immediately became excited and asked.
"Of course it is natural. Even if the army of 300,000 people is maintained, it can be maintained for a period of time."
Qin Shuo nodded and said affirmatively.
Now the army's salaries are indeed not enough. Although Lu Zhi has a lot of gold in his hands, there is no way to use it.
Nowadays, those grains are either very expensive, or even ridiculously expensive, or they simply cannot be bought, and no one is willing to sell them, but hoard them.
"If I can really do this, I can even promise you one more condition. The current food in our army is not enough, and I want to buy it from you now."
Lu Zhi said, and took a sip of the tea on the table.
This tea was actually given to him by Qin Shuo. He didn't like it very much at first. But over time, he liked it more and more.
But after asking the price, he was discouraged, and finally Qin Shuo took the initiative to give him a few pounds.
"To be honest, there are already 100,000 units of grain on the way, and it is estimated that we can reach here within three days."
I heard that I also took a sip of tea and said something that made Lu Zhi
Shocking news.
"You've already figured this out, and now I'm just taking advantage of the opportunity to come to support. By the way, I'm selling it. You think of my white line food, it's really a good calculation."
Lu Zhi laughed, but was not angry.
"If you want to eat, there is no way. After all, the economy is too much to develop a site, and I have no choice. Just for those soldiers, I invested a third of the tax."
Qin Shuo sighed and said.
"You really have some ruthless soldiers, and you actually waste one-third of the tax on the soldiers. What should your people do?"
Lu Zhi said after hearing this.
"Let's not talk about this for the time being, it's just that you have promised me, General Zhonglang, to fulfill a condition for me."
Qin Shuo didn't tell the truth. Although Shuobai County has a lot of tax revenue, it is more business penetration. Now, many large industries in Yangzhou already have Qin Shuo's tentacles.
In comparison, those taxes are really just some small heads, not to mention there is a steady stream of loot, which can be used to support wars.
"Tell me, under what conditions?"
Lu Zhi asked.
"Help me make one thing in front of the emperor, that's all..."
Qin Shuo said
road.
In fact, this was the last time Qin Shuo asked Yang Xu to do it, but Yang Xu didn't do it well. Qin Shuo now wants to ask Lu Zhi again.
"This, your mind is not small."
After Lu Zhi heard Qin Shuo's words, he also sneered at Qin Shuo.
He naturally saw that Qin Shuo's intentions were impure, and as a loyal minister of the Han, he also had some disgust for this kind of thing.
"As long as the adults agree."
Qin Shuo didn't care about Lu Zhi's eyes and said.
"Can I still refuse to agree now? It's just that you'd better put away your little thoughts. If it's just for making money, then there's nothing to do. If it's for rebellion, this old man is the first to refuse."
Lu Zhi's expression changed and he said.
"This is natural."
Qin Shuo nodded, clasped his fists and said.
But he didn't think so in the bottom of his heart. Lu Zhi won't stay in this position for long, and it is estimated that he will be replaced by Huangpu Song in the future. Naturally, there is no way to take him.
"That's good, you're ready, we'll leave tomorrow."
Lu Zhi nodded, waved his hand, and signaled Qin Shuo to step back.
...
This time, Qin Shuo can be said to be facing Zhang Jiao directly. In his previous life, Qin Shuo didn't say it was an opportunity to face Zhang Jiao directly.
have once.
The Battle of Guangzong can be said to be a turning point in the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but it didn't happen in June, but from August to October this year, and now it's only June.
Moreover, the leader of the Battle of Guangzong was also Huangpu Song, not Lu Zhi. The point is that Lu Zhi was detained in Beijing in June, otherwise the fight might have already started.
Huangpu Song also said later that in fact, the victory of the battle of Guangzong was still due to Lu Zhi's layout.
At the beginning, Lu Zhi was defeated by the Yellow Turban soldiers, and he had no choice but to retreat to Guangzong, otherwise there would be no Guangzong battle.
"What are you thinking? You can't beat my dad. My dad still has a secret weapon that hasn't been used yet."
Looking at Qin Shuo who was contemplating, Zhang Ning, who was beside him, also said, swearing.
"How do you know we can't beat it? You didn't expect any accident?"
Qin Shuo glanced at Zhang Ning next to him and snorted.
"What else could happen? You don't know how powerful that secret weapon is. Once you use it, you little officers and soldiers will be finished. You should join this girl as soon as possible. If this girl is in a good mood, estimate
Ji can also make you my little slave and kowtow to me all day long. "
Zhang Ning has also gotten to know Qin Shuo recently.
It didn't even bother to talk about it.
During this time, she also saw the difference in Qin Shuo. He seemed to be a very different person, at least not as abominable as the officials she had seen before. Comparing the two, Qin Shuo seemed much cuter.
If Qin Shuo knew what Zhang Ning's heart was thinking, he would probably say something with a smile, all thanks to his peers.
"When you talked about washing feet, I suddenly remembered. It seems that I really haven't washed my feet for several days. Then you can be a foot-washing maid for me tonight. This is a gift to you."
Qin Shuo gave Zhang Ning a cold look and said.
"Are you sleeping in a dream and haven't woken up yet?"
Zhang Ning glanced at Qin Shuo and said.
"It's fine if you don't wash, but you won't have anything to eat tomorrow."
Qin Shuo opened his mouth and said, there is no Geneva Convention right now, and you should treat prisoners kindly, not to mention that Zhang Ning is not a prisoner, she should be regarded as a spy, the kind that can be directly killed.
Qin Shuo also asked Zhang Ning why he was in the army, but she was always vague, as if there were some secrets, so she couldn't ask.
"I'll tell you one last time, you'd better tell what you know honestly, otherwise, absolute sister will have your good juice to eat."
Qin Shuo said.
