Chapter 166: Chaos
"I've been talking for a long time, I want us to cooperate with you in acting."
Liu Feng showed a fatherly smile, "Okay, there is no problem at all, but what are the benefits of this for us?"
He was not against cooperating with the other party. Anyway, as long as Jiangzhou got it, it would be fine. However, if you don’t take the opportunity to bite the meat like this, you feel sorry for yourself if you don’t take the opportunity to bite. In addition, both sides are originally hostile, either you die or I die. It doesn’t matter if you offend me a little more ruthlessly.
"What benefits do you want?"
Li Jun looked alert. He had seen the lion in front of him, for fear that he would make any unreasonable requests. You should know that in order to redeem him, the power behind him was greatly damaged.
"I want pig iron! At least 20 million kilograms."
As soon as this said, Li Jun's legs became weak. Even if he was mentally prepared, he almost knelt down. The annual output of the entire Daganchao pig iron was only 60 million kilograms, and you would have to ask for one-third of the opening?! This is no longer a lion's opening, but a Taotie opening.
He asked for a price everywhere and paid the money on the spot! In order to be able to leave this ghost place early, Li Jun finally chose to compromise. However, 20 million was impossible. The final agreement was 2 million kilograms, and he paid for this batch of iron ore privately because the court could not help him pay.
"Captain Liu, I hope this is our last transaction! Now that things have been negotiated, we should not meet again in the future."
Li Jun looked at the "Liu Taotie" in front of him very seriously, and it would be best not to see him again in his life.
"Whatever you want, as long as I get what I want, you can go back."
Although he only got 2 million kilograms, Liu Feng was in a good mood. After all, even if he only got 10,000 kilograms, he would have made money by himself.
He was originally planning to invite Wen Di, the envoy to send money, but he declined, and Liu Feng did not force him to do so.
"Captain Liu, Jiangzhou is ready. When will you lead your troops here?"
Before leaving, Wendi did not forget to ask, and the subtext was to urge Liu Feng to complete the transaction as soon as possible so that he could take the second prince away.
"It's soon, it's soon."
Liu Feng said perfunctorily.
Because these days, I am mainly busy with the matters in the north, so I haven't decided on sending troops to Jiangzhou. After all, Jiangzhou is located in the west of Jizhou. If you want to go to Jiangzhou, you have to pass Chen Sheng's territory. Whether to fight or use the passage, you need to discuss it carefully.
After seeing off Li Jun and the others, Liu Feng went to the pig farm without stopping. Today, 100,000 young pigs were put into the pen. The first thing to do was castrate the little boar, otherwise it would be difficult to deal with when the piglets became bigger.
After the piglets are castrated, the secret that the meat will become delicious when they grow up. Except for Liu Feng, no one has discovered it yet, so many people are a little strange about his spending money on building pig farms and raising pigs.
In their opinion, it is better to have 100,000 cattle and sheep than to have 300,000 piglets.
The location of the pig farm was built outside the city, and a total of twelve pig farms were built, and a large number of people were recruited for this purpose.
In order to teach these people the castration techniques, Liu Feng also asked the Jinyiwei to arrest an old eunuch who was engaged in this area to teach and answer questions.
At the beginning, everyone was very discriminatory about learning this. After all, it was too shameful. When they returned home, they were embarrassed to tell their family that they were learning the "dragon-slaying technique".
After a period of study, people in pig farms now have enough theoretical knowledge, and only practice is left.
"Meet the lord!"
When Liu Feng rode his horse to a pig farm nearest to Yecheng, the manager inside immediately came to greet him with his subordinates.
"All up, have you counted the number of piglets?"
Liu Feng turned over and got off the horse, walked in, and at first glance, the pigpen was covered with white piglets. When he came here, he heard the humming sounds of piglets from afar.
"I have a clear look. Most of them are just less than a month old, and there are some piglets over a month old."
The manager hurriedly said that being able to become a manager of a pig farm is outstanding in pig farming.
"Then start castration. After castration, pay attention to the hygiene of the piglet's wounds and do not get infected."
"yes!"
The manager quickly responded.
Under his arrangement, servants who had learned enough theoretical knowledge walked towards the pigpen with dragon-slaying swords.
Because the taste here is really not very good, Liu Feng just took a random walk and left. He didn't know much about raising pigs anyway, and he couldn't help much even if he stayed. Just leave it to professionals.
Not long after, shrill sounds of pigs came from the pig farm.
As soon as he returned to the mansion, a Jinyiwei hurriedly came forward and presented a secret report to Liu Feng, "Report to the Lord, this is an urgent report just sent back from the north."
Liu Feng took it and opened it and frowned. The 500,000 Northern Wei army finally headed south to Jizhou.
"It's coming so fast!"
He put away the secret report and immediately asked the Jinyiwei to summon his subordinates to discuss the matter of defending the enemy.
These days, many military captains have been transferred back from Ningyang, Panhe by Liu Feng. After the personnel gathered, the conference hall was almost full of people, most of whom were military officers wearing armor and covered in evil spirits.
Because Liu Feng had not arrived yet, everyone gathered together in small talk.
"The lord is here!"
With a loud shout coming in from outside, the hall suddenly became quiet and everyone stood one by one according to their position.
"Meet the lord!"
When Liu Feng walked in, the civil servants and military officials in the room immediately saluted loudly. After a moment of scruple, they knelt down, which was quite as impressive as a small court.
Looking at the dozens of people below, Liu Feng felt a sense of satisfaction. These were his team. He raised his hand and said, "You don't have to be too polite, get up."
After everyone in the hall stood up, Liu Feng said to the direction of the gate: "Carry things in."
As soon as he finished speaking, four big men with a huge back and waist walked in with a huge sand table.
Liu Feng walked to the sand table, then picked up some flags and inserted them in four positions, saying: "Just just got the news that the 500,000 Northern Wei army had divided into four directions and headed south to Jizhou."
On the sand table, four small flags were inserted in the four places of Beim Prefecture, Gaohe Prefecture, Xiapei Prefecture and Anhe Prefecture. These four places are all places bordering Chongzhou. Among them, Beim Prefecture and Gaohe Prefecture are nominally still under the territory of Ganchao, but these two places have become chaotic places. The Ganchao defenders, chaotic forces, and rebel forces in the prefecture city each occupy a piece of land, while Xiapei and Anhe Prefectures are Chen Sheng's sphere of influence.
