Even if they save money, Beidi County's soldiers and refugees need to consume 20,000 kilograms of grain and rice every day. Ten thousand kilograms of grain and rice are only enough to last for two months. Adding in the eight thousand kilograms that were brought in secretly before, it is still enough.
Three months.[.
Jia Rong looked at Mi Zhu next to him and said, "Brother Zizhong has been working hard. Please rest early. I still have some things to deal with. If Brother Zizhong needs anything, please ask."
He led the soldiers to patrol the city and looked at the smiles on the people's skinny faces. Jia Rong returned to his residence with satisfaction. After running around for days, he could finally relax. He originally wanted to take a nap, but he didn't expect this.
I fell asleep directly until the second riri and the third pole.
After a simple breakfast, he walked around the city and returned to the prefect's mansion. Now Jia Rong's public support rate in Beidi County is very high. Wherever he goes, he can hear the enthusiastic cheers of the people.
"Brother Zizhong will definitely be a fierce general if he goes to the battlefield." Jia Rong said to Mi Zhu who had just finished practicing martial arts in the courtyard.
Mi Zhu's skills are indeed not bad, his steps are steady, his arms shake vigorously, and the gun blossoms burst out. From his moves, it is not difficult to see the excellence of this set of marksmanship. Each link is linked, and it can be regarded as an upper-level marksmanship.
, coupled with Mi Zhu's years of training, he has become a master of marksmanship.
After hearing Jia Rong's praise, Mi Zhu felt a little proud and said with a smile: "You can't stand up to the level of elegance, so Zhiyuan made a joke."
After chatting for a while, Jia Rong turned the topic to the food problem in Beidi County, "Brother Zizhong shipped ten thousand stones of grain this time, which can only solve Beidi County's food supply for two months. When will Brother Zizhong be able to transport it again?"
Food and fodder coming?"
A look of embarrassment flashed across Mi Zhu's face, "Zhiyuan doesn't know how difficult the road is today. Xiaoxiao is raging in the Han Dynasty. I brought a thousand private soldiers this time and still can't deter those desperadoes."
Jia Rong frowned, thought of something, and said with a smile: "Brother Zizhong, what's the problem? I can send the sergeants in the city to follow you all the way, so that those young people don't dare to cause trouble again."
Mi Zhu was overjoyed, "Are you serious about this?"
Jia Rong nodded affirmatively and said immediately: "But there are conditions for sending sergeants from Beidi County to follow."
"Brother Zizhong is responsible for the daily expenses, food and lodging of these sergeants, and an additional employment fee will be given to the prefecture." Jia Rong continued.
Mi Zhu readily agreed. This time, a thousand soldiers were accompanying him, which cost a lot of money along the way. Moreover, how could the soldiers be compared with the tigers and wolves of Beidi County?
After a conversation, the two parties agreed on the price, and everyone was happy. Jia Rong easily solved the problem of feeding a thousand soldiers, and Mi Zhu promised to bring more grain, rice, and thousands of stones.
A good war horse is worth thousands of gold in the Central Plains, while a stone of grain and rice is worth a thousand gold. Mi Zhu made a lot of money this time, and Jia Rong didn't explain why he was currently short of grain and rice, and nearby counties couldn't borrow it.
, and with ten thousand stones of grain and rice, we will definitely be able to overcome the current difficulties. There will be many places where Mi Zhu can be used in the future.
People feel refreshed when happy events happen. Jia Rong smiled and talked in Mi Zhu's ear for a while. Mi Zhu followed Jia Rong excitedly and walked towards the craftsman's workshop.
Looking at the two people walking away, Zhang Li shook his head for a while. Jia Rong didn't look like a governor at all. Unless he had some momentum during the war, he usually did some unreasonable things. Sometimes he was a rogue and sometimes a scoundrel, but sometimes he was still there.
He did things that he could not refute.
Jia Rong took Mi Zhu through many checkpoints and entered the craftsman's workshop. Mi Zhu sighed: "The defense of the craftsman's workshop in Beidi County is too tight." Jia Rong smiled and did not answer.
Looking at the rows of stoves beside a huge pool, and hundreds of blacksmiths working hard to forge iron together, Mi Zhu was also shocked. Mi Zhu was very puzzled that a craftsman's workshop was worth spending such a huge amount of money.
Blacksmith Liu heard the news of Jia Rong's arrival and hurried over. Although Beidi County was in urgent need of food a few days ago, the food in the craftsman's workshop had not changed. These blacksmiths were very moved and worked even harder while forging iron.
Jia Rong looked at Blacksmith Liu who was covered in sweat and said, "Go and bring the things I asked you to forge a few days ago to the room."
In the craftsman's workshop, Jia Rong's special room, Mi Zhu studied the item repeatedly for nearly half an hour before returning to his seat. Mi Zhu was involved in a wide range of business fields. After careful observation, he discovered the extraordinary features of the item in front of him.
.
"The master's craftsman's workshop is really full of talents. A small plow can be transformed so perfectly. It can really be called the first craftsman's workshop in the Han Dynasty." Mi Zhu exclaimed.
Mi Zhu calls Jia Rong brothers in private, but still calls Jia Rong Lord in public. Mi Zhu, who is cunning and cunning, doesn't want to be caught by Jia Rong.
Jia Rong will signal Liu Tiejiang to go down, and then start discussing with Mi Zhu. Jia Rong does not want to bargain with a businessman in front of his subordinates, which will affect his image of being wise and tall.
After just a short discussion, Mi Zhu jumped up, slapped the table and shouted: "No, no, this price is unacceptable."
Jia Rong looked at Mi Zhu with a smile, as if he was convinced.
After just a cup of tea, Mi Zhu lowered his head and said, "Okay, let's just follow what Zhiyuan said."
Jia Rong's condition was very simple. He asked Mi Zhu to build a grain and rice store in the city, and the price would be determined by the prefect's office. At the same time, Mi Zhu took out another five thousand kilograms of iron, which was reduced to one thousand kilograms of iron after Mi Zhu's bargaining.
Jia Rong clearly remembers the beginning of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, when Liu Guan, Zhang Taoyuan, and businessmen Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping funded Liu Bei's iron kilograms. Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Sword, Zhang Fei's Zhangba Snake Spear, and Liu Bei's double-stranded sword were all made of iron.
, I thought that iron iron would not be a rare item, so I tried to get 5,000 jins for fun.
Unexpectedly, Mi Zhu's reaction was huge. The weapons of the Han Dynasty can be made of iron. They are all fine weapons. They are made of black iron. The word "treasure" must be added in front of them. They are made of meteorite iron. That is
A peerless weapon, the Qingzhi Sword in Jia Rong's hand is made of meteorite iron. It cuts iron like mud and blows hair off.
Bin iron is also known as jing iron. Although it is far inferior to the bin iron after the Tang Dynasty, it is the best weapon made by the Han Dynasty. After all, black iron is hard to find, and meteorite iron is extremely rare.
Mi Zhu was also quite resistant to building a grain and rice store in the city and having the government set prices. Business families like Mi Zhu had their own grain and rice stores in various places, but the prices were set by themselves.
It is normal for merchants to join forces to hoard grain and raise grain prices, which is the so-called difficulty in making money for the country. This move by Jia Rong undoubtedly violated the interests of merchants.
Secondly, Beidi County is located in a border county, and wars often occur, so it is unwise to invest here.
Unable to resist Jia Rong's temptation, Mi Zhu finally agreed.
Jia Rong's "original" was also bought by these things. If Beidi County had sufficient financial resources, it would definitely not sell it at such a low price. The first pot of gold from the time-travel was obtained.
However, the wisdom of the ancients cannot be ignored. In the era before trademark registration, just counterfeiting was enough to cause Jia Rong a headache, and selling it to Mi Zhu was a last resort.
Mi Zhu hurriedly left Beidi County on the next day with the drawings and samples of the plow.
The operation of the craftsman's workshop is very smooth. The craftsmanship of these blacksmiths may not be the best in Han Dynasty, but no one is born as a master craftsman. Jia Rong's series of reward systems make these blacksmiths work hard to build weapons in the workshop every day.
These blacksmiths learned blacksmithing in order to support their families. Now they can get promoted on the basis of supporting their families. How can they not work hard?
Jia Rong often came to the workshop when he had nothing to do and chatted with the blacksmiths. Over time, these blacksmiths lost their previous restraint when facing Jia Rong. Jia Rong often asked some blacksmiths with good blacksmithing skills to talk about their blacksmithing experience.
Share it with others.
The ancients emphasized that their skills should not be passed on to others, and they were still a little resistant at first, but Jia Rong's reward system included this: "Those who are good at making weapons and are willing to tell their blacksmithing experience will receive a merit and be rewarded with a lot of money! The premise is that they do not repeat themselves with others.
And it is considered useful by most people." Seeing other blacksmiths receiving a constant amount of money, how could the others not be jealous, so the good habit has been maintained.
Today, Jia Rong came to the craftsman's workshop as usual. Looking at the shirtless blacksmith who kept hammering with the hammer, Jia Rong nodded approvingly. As long as the craftsman's workshop continues to operate like this, some high-level blacksmiths will emerge from these blacksmiths in the future.
Even a master blacksmith wouldn't have any difficulty.
Liu Tiejian followed Jia Rong all the way to the cabin dedicated to Jia Rong. Liu Tiejian was no longer as busy as when the workshop was just beginning. He usually followed these blacksmiths to forge and exchange experiences. He walked around in the workshop and smiled all day long.
Full of faces.
Jia Rong motioned Liu Tiejiang to sit down at the bottom, and handed a piece of rice paper in his hand very heavily to Liu Tiejiang's hand.
Liu Tiejiang figured out the pattern on the rice paper that Jia Rong gave him last time after studying it. He couldn't help but be impressed by Jia Rong's ingenious design. From then on, his eyes towards Jia Rong were full of admiration.
Liu Tiejiang carefully opened the rice paper. Jia Rong's painting skills are still very good. A three-dimensional object with a thick circle at the top and a flat ring at the bottom appeared on the paper. After careful inspection, it took about a cup of tea. It was still the same as last time.
His brows were furrowed.
After all, Tiejiang Liu is just a blacksmith. If you are a knowledgeable person in the army, you can see the extraordinaryness of this thing at a glance. If you want to increase the strength of the army, you need not only hard training, but also sharp weapons.
Powerful auxiliary items, can an army of one million people armed with thick wooden sticks defeat an army of one hundred thousand soldiers armed with steel and swords?
What is drawn on the paper is the stirrup. Don't underestimate such a small stirrup. If the ancient cavalry was a tank, then the saddle can be called the cannon on the tank. With it, the cavalry will become what the infantry can never do.
A nightmare beyond.
