Forcing himself to calm down, Pu Pu knew that in this world, there is no pie falling from the sky! If there were, it would only be a discus hitting his head!
"Let's make an agreement first. Our Miao village will not interfere in your fight with them, let alone send people to help you!" Perhaps because he was afraid that he could not resist the temptation of those grains, Pu Pu thought for a while, and then came back.
Added a sentence.
"You help us?"
Xiao Han was stunned, and then he laughed so hard that he almost cried tears of laughter: "The commander-in-chief has thought too much! No matter how bad I, Xiao Han, am, I am still the mighty Wuhou of the Tang Dynasty! Not to mention that I have General Liu by my side! What if?
We even have to seek help from others to deal with a few low-class families, so we might as well just buy a piece of tofu and kill them, because we have no shame in returning to Chang'an anyway!"
"Then what do you want?" Hearing this, Pu Pu breathed a sigh of relief and asked again.
"It's not what I want!" Xiao Han stopped laughing, raised his head and wiped the corners of his eyes and said: "Don't think that I will give it to you for free. You need to exchange for it! And it's not just you.
, Zhuang, Yi, and other brothers who live in the mountains of Lingnan can come to exchange for food. Of course, they can exchange for other things, including money."
"Exchange for something? What to exchange for?" Qipu took a deep breath and said, "We don't seem to have anything valuable here!"
"Yes, who's to say no!" Xiao Han looked at Gupu, waved his hand and said: "Commander, don't belittle yourself, the tie-dyed fabrics from your Miao Village are good things. I saw someone selling them in Jiangnan a few years ago.
The price is even better than Shu brocade!
In addition, I heard Miss Xun'er say that you also have a kind of candy bar here? That is also a good thing! I don't think the commander knows the price of candy in Chang'an now, right? Anyway, this kid is considered a rich man.
But it still hurts to think about the sugar sprinkled all the way when I got married! This shows how exaggerated the price of sugar is!"
"Candy sticks? Is that thing valuable?" Hearing Xiao Han's words, Pupu's thick eyebrows and big eyes immediately showed a trace of doubt. Those long and thin ones, like bamboo sticks, grow randomly in the mountains and are often used as snacks by children.
Can things be exchanged for food?
"precious!"
Xiao Han saw Gupu's doubts and explained to him with a smile: "Moreover, that thing can only grow in hot places like Lingnan. Once it goes to the north, it won't survive! So the commander-in-chief can definitely grow in the mountains in the future.
Plant that thing. It doesn’t matter where you choose it. As long as you are willing to plant it, it will grow! There is no need to take care of it. This is a good thing God has given you!”
After all, Pu Pu was the commander of these twelve villages. Although he was a little excited, he was not encouraged to lose his mind. At this time, he still carefully analyzed the truth and falsehood of Xiao Han's words: "You are right, but
The problem is, the candy sticks can’t seem to be stored at all! In the past, when the children in the village brought some back, they would break down in just a few days, and they would be thrown to the pigs, who wouldn’t even eat them! If this was the case, they wouldn’t have time to transport them out of the mountains.
If it breaks down, how can it be exchanged for money or food?"
"So what I'm talking about is sugar! Not sugar sticks! As long as you make sugar sticks into candy in the village! Then put them in bamboo tubes and seal them. You don't have to worry about them breaking down in a few years! By then, even if they are shipped overseas,
Fanbang, no problem!"
"You still want to make candy? But we don't know how to do it!"
"Haha, you can't, but I can!"
"You can?"
Looking at Xiao Han who was so proud, Pupu fell silent again. Apart from his own village, he really couldn't believe that there were people as selfless and dedicated as Xiao Han in this world!
Therefore, after a long silence, he spoke with difficulty.
"Why?"
"No reason!"
Xiao Han smiled purely and said to Gupu calmly: "Because Lingnan is also a part of the Tang Dynasty, and you are also a part of the Tang Dynasty! Let all the Tang people in the world live a better life. It is for us, the Tang Dynasty, to
The responsibilities of Tang officials."
——————
I don't know how much time passed, but Pu Pu left the room. His back walking in the darkness looked a little desolate.
Xiao Han's performance tonight completely overturned his previous view of the Han people!
He had doubted whether Xiao Han had other purposes, but after hearing that Xiao Han was going to teach the people in the Miao village how to make sugar tomorrow, his suspicion immediately turned into a deep suspicion.
ashamed.
As Xiao Han himself said, except for a few people in the Miao Village today, what else is worthy of his plot?
"Xiao Han, are you really just here to help them?"
Standing at the door of the room, Liu Hongji looked at Gou Pu's retreating back, scratched his bald head, and asked Xiao Han suspiciously.
"Nonsense!" Xiao Han rolled his eyes: "Of course not! I'm here because once Guangzhou City is opened, food from Jiangnan will be continuously transported to Lingnan. Who will I sell to with so much food then?
?”
"Uh...you just said it so righteously, but actually you just want to make a business?"
After hearing these words, Ren Qing's look at Xiao Han immediately became strange. In his dark eyes, there was a bit of disappointment, a bit of anger, and a bit of contempt.
"Of course, it's not just about business." Xiao Han ignored Ren Qing's gaze and laughed to himself.
"What else?" After hearing this, Ren Qing's expression softened a little.
He had just been really moved by Xiao Han's righteousness for the salvation of all sentient beings, because only in that way could he be worthy of what he thought a prince should look like.
"Also... and I heard that the relationship between this Miao family village and those families is pretty good. I'm afraid that when we liquidate those families, they will cause trouble for us! So first, get something to block their way.
Mouth, as the saying goes: The hands of those who eat people are short, and the mouths of those who take people are short! When the time comes, those families who are desperate will not drag the Miao people to become monsters, don't you think?"
"I said? I said!!! Xiao Han! You beast!"
Xiao Han's answer once again broke Ren Qing's fantasy as expected. Xiao Han's majestic figure just now instantly became fragmented in Ren Qing's heart.
All that was left was the image of a profiteer with copper coins on his head and profit on his feet, constantly dazzling in front of him!
"Hey, hey! Lao Ren! Why do you have such an unscrupulous look in your eyes? What are you going to do? Ah! Put down that wooden stick, where is it... ow!"
In the silent Miao village, a miserable scream broke the silence. Liu Hongji grinned widely and watched with joy as Ren Qing filled the village chasing Xiao Han.
"Hahaha, you deserve it! Wouldn't you make up a lie to deceive Lao Ren, the stone in the pit? You have to tell the truth! Hahaha... Huh? Why is your head feeling cold? Is it raining again?"
