Chapter 93 Pack up all the fireworks and take them away
"Son..."
Du Yinyun folded her hands on her legs and sat upright in the carriage. At the same time, she looked at He Yunxiao with a little worry. Based on her understanding of He Yunxiao and her sister, something was going to happen soon.
as expected.
When He Yunxiao heard that Xiubao was going to join the army, he was stunned for a moment, then fell into thinking, and then sighed: "Yinyun, how much money can our Daqi Bank use?"
Not only Sister Du, but He Yunxiao also knows the character of Xiangbao. Xiangbao is not a commitment-paranoid like Chu Chu who "can't keep up with her promise", but she is a very independent girl who is good at calmness.
What Fan Ziruo can say must have been carefully thought through by her smart mind.
In other words, she often "keeps her word."
Since she said she wanted to "join the army for her husband," there was a high possibility that she would go.
Du Yinyun looked at He Yunxiao with beautiful eyes. She liked her son very much, and she liked him even more at this moment.
"After the war between Qi and Yan, many merchants were in bad business, and many people chose to exchange their silver because of the war, instead of converting their silver into gold and silver coupons for consumption. Before the war, the young master could use about five hundred thousand taels, but now..." Du Yinyun was a little bit
He pursed his lips guiltily, as if he was sorry for He Yunxiao.
"Now, the young master can only use 150,000 taels."
He Yunxiao stretched out his hand, held his little maid in his arms, and gently comforted her: "This is not Yin Yun's fault, Yin Yun, don't blame yourself."
Du Yinyun had mixed feelings in her heart, including the grievance of feeling sorry for He Yunxiao, but also the joy of being comforted by He Yunxiao.
She ventured to say: "Sir, can you hug Yin Yun more in the future?"
He Yunxiao felt happy when he heard Sister Du say this.
This seems to be the first time that Sister Du has taken the initiative to make a request to him! Sister Du finally has her own opinion in front of him!
"What else do you want from Yin Yun? Just ask! I promise you everything."
"No need, I wish you could hug Yin Yun more." Sister Du said weakly.
He Yunxiao was ashamed. He thought that the phonology could be independent, but he didn't expect that it still couldn't.
After sending Sister Du to Daqi Bank, He Yunxiao stayed to discuss with her the purchase of military supplies. Since he wanted to do military service, he might as well go to the Ministry of War to get a token to form an army, and then bring the people from the Dagger Gang and
The weaklings go out of the city together and follow the Chu family army to do military exploits. After all, the Chu family army is also the protagonist's father's army, so there is no need to worry about its combat effectiveness. Just support yourself and pick up the mistakes.
He Yunxiao hasn't had time to see the Dagger Gang yet, but according to his estimate when he left, the Dagger Gang should have a hundred people at this time. Assuming that these people are going to follow him out of the city to join the Chu family army, he must help them solve the problem of weapons and equipment. This
It's a lot of money.
On the second floor of Daqi Bank, the female president, Sister Du, waved away the maid on standby, then sat next to He Yunxiao and served him personally.
But Sister Du's housework skills were zero. He Yunxiao didn't dare to let her do anything, so he just pulled her to sit down and talk.
"Can't buy it?" He Yunxiao looked at Du Yinyun in surprise.
"Young master, I don't know. The sale of armor and other protective equipment has been banned by the imperial court. Even now, it is a prohibited item and cannot be purchased. War horses and other military supplies have long been requisitioned by the imperial court. Now you can only buy swords and spears, but they are very expensive.
"
Dynasties in the Cold Weapon Age could not ban weapons, but they often banned armor. In this era of cold weapons, where one sword is almost fatal, having armor that cannot withstand weapons will make a qualitative difference in the combat power of both sides. Everyone will kill the opponent with one sword. I
Having armor that can withstand a few swords means that I can kill several times more enemies than myself.
In other words, He Yunxiao, who numbered hundreds of men, had no armor and had zero defense. Even if he was highly skilled in martial arts, rushing into the Yan army's formation would be the same as surrendering.
"Can I buy arrows, crossbows, grain, and shovels for digging?" He Yunxiao thought for a moment and asked.
"Can."
"Okay, I need a hundred crossbows and a hundred shovels each, and prepare enough food for a hundred people and ten days for me. Two thousand arrows. By the way!" He Yunxiao suddenly had an idea, "Can I buy fireworks?"
Du Yinyun nodded doubtfully, "Okay."
"Can the craftsman who makes fireworks be purchased?"
"This... can also be..."
"Buy! I want the best craftsman in the city. It's best if he's young and capable and can ride a horse."
Although Du Yinyun didn't understand what her young master was planning, she still nodded and said, "Okay."
…
After He Yunxiao saw off Sister Du, he went straight to Fan Mansion.
After all, Hong She was just a maid, and her level was not high enough. She would not have been exposed to the Chu family's army secretly discussing such confidential matters.
Fortunately, Yin Yun was a member of the Chu Family Army, otherwise he would not have had the chance to prepare in advance.
He Yunxiao did not doubt that Xiubao would tell him about joining the army, but it was just a matter of time.
In the morning, He Yunxiao returned to Fan Mansion's study.
The weak treasure is indeed still there, but the books in front of him have been changed from martial arts novels to various military books.
"Weak treasure?"
He Yunxiao poked his head out of the door.
Fan Ziruo panicked, cleared the table, and said calmly: "Why is the young master here again?"
He Yunxiao walked into the room and said dissatisfiedly: "Why don't you call me husband, madam? Calling me 'gongzi' is too foreign."
"Husband."
"Gone?"
"It's your husband who came to see Zi Ruo."
He Yunxiao sat next to his weakling and said in a strange tone: "I saw something was wrong with my wife this morning. I asked Miss Du on the way to the bank and found out that my wife had a rough heart and disliked her husband for being vulgar."
Fan Ziruo blushed rarely.
She hesitated and said: "No..."
"It's not what? I think it is."
"Zi Ruo wants to wait until he learns the art of war before discussing it with her husband. The art of war is profound. If Zi Ruo can't learn it, then he won't cause trouble to his uncles."
He Yunxiao pretended to be angry and said: "Then you will study for ten days and a half, then you will talk to me after ten days and a half?"
Fan Ziruo said seriously: "I originally planned to talk to my husband in the afternoon, but I didn't expect that my husband would come in the morning."
He Yunxiao was stunned, "Afternoon? This afternoon?"
"Um."
"You, have you read all these books?" He Yunxiao pointed at the two piles of military art books on the desk.
"No." Fan Ziruo said embarrassedly.
He Yunxiao breathed a sigh of relief. They had a meeting last night and today Xiaobao finished reading the art of war. That is too exaggerated. Geniuses don't do this.
Fan Ziruo continued: "There is still half a book left."
She waved the book in her hand.
He Yunxiao's eyes widened. He read all the art of war books in one night. Then he sighed like a scumbag and had nothing to say.
"Why do you sigh, husband?"
"Babies born from weak babies must be very smart." He Yunxiao said with certainty.
Fan Ziruo was embarrassed by He Yunxiao's unusual compliment and could only say: "As long as your husband likes it, that's fine."
He Yunxiao put away the idea of joking, looked into Fan Ziruo's eyes and said, "When do you plan to go?"
Fan Ziruo also looked into He Yunxiao's eyes. He never asked her why from the beginning to the end, he just kept asking her what to do. This was a rare kind of trust.
Fan Ziruo likes this kind of spiritual happiness the most.
"My father said that the day after tomorrow, the Qi army will leave the city to attack the Yan army. If we go out at that time, the Yan army will not be able to take care of us, so it will be safer."
He Yunxiao said: "Okay, let's go together."
Fan Ziruo's eyes were full of smiles, as if this trip out of the city was just an ordinary outing. In other words, with He Yunxiao, she was not afraid at all.
