After the two allies met, they looked at each other tacitly. Ma Di gave Shao Ge a look that could only be understood but not explained. The latter understood instantly and waved his hand:
"Warriors, with swords in hand, follow me; kill Wei Gou and be free!"
"Kill Wei Gou and be free!"
"Kill, kill, kill!" Everyone raised their weapons in response.
Shao Ge led everyone to the market, first blocked the four exits, and then rushed in fiercely, shouting loudly: "Everyone, hold your heads in your hands and squat on the ground!"
"Those who don't squat will die! Those who move will die!"
As soon as these words came out, the crowd exploded instantly, and there was a sudden uproar in the market. Countless men and women from the three tribes screamed, and they all squatted down, revealing Qiyana who was pretending to be Ma Su in the middle.
Qiyana waded through the crowd and trotted over. Her youthful body bumped into Ma Su, barely stopping her body.
You don't need to look to know that she did it on purpose.
Ma Su was too lazy to care about a little girl and raised his eyes to look at Zhang Xiu who was walking closely behind.
"Where is Xu Miao?"
"I didn't see it." Zhang Xiu spread his hands and looked confused.
Seeing that the two of them were safe and sound, and there were no signs of fighting in the market, Ma Su was a little confused.
Could it be that Xu Miao didn't come?
impossible!
He must be coming.
But why didn't he take action?
Shao Ge was also a little confused and ordered his surroundings: "Search around and arrest any suspicious persons immediately. If there is resistance, shoot without mercy!"
Hundreds of warriors followed the order, picked up everyone from the ground, and started investigating.
Not long after, three warriors and four warriors came to report one after another: "Your Majesty, no suspicious person was found."
Shao Ge nodded and looked at Ma Su.
Ma Su pinched his chin and pondered.
Where did Xu Miao go?
Could it be that the old guy saw through at a glance that the "I" in the market was pretending, so he had a premonition that something was not going to happen, so he greased the soles of his feet and ran away?
Humph, old fox!
You can run fast!
Ma Su stopped worrying about Xu Miao's problem and ran directly to the palace with Shao Ge to take stock of the harvest.
This stay lasted ten days.
A lot has happened in the past ten days.
The first thing to do was to withdraw the Ling Qiang troops. Shao Ge also withdrew the 30,000 Qiang troops stationed on the southern border and deployed them to the north to form a posture to resist Wei.
The second thing is that Ma Su carefully explored the background of all the princesses in Erhe and found no abnormalities.
They are all very cooperative.
The third thing is to take stock of all the properties in the palace. Of course, all the Shaodang Qiang's properties are too numerous to complete at one time, so we only took stock of some major assets that are easy to take stock of.
At this point, Ma Su had a preliminary understanding of the basic situation of Shaodang Qiang.
It can only be said that the Shaodang Qiang are indeed the richest tribe among the Qiang people. Last year alone, the Shaodang Qiang sold 10,000 horses, 10,000 cattle, and 50,000 sheep. If the total income is converted into large amounts of money, it is about
Reached a staggering billion.
On average, the per capita annual income of each Qiang person in the tribe is 5555.55 yuan.
This amount of money may not seem like much, but it is already more than ten times the per capita annual income of the people in central Sichuan. Even compared with the people of Wei State, it is probably at least twice as much.
Moreover, this huge sum of one billion is only the income of Shaodang Qiang for one year.
No wonder the former Qiang King Erhe was content with the status quo all day long and did not want to make progress, so he only knew how to hang out among the beauties in the harem that approached three figures.
Which Qiang king could withstand such a wealthy life?
Dominating the Xiqiang and resisting the Wei state will not allow you to enjoy the natural pleasure of life.
For every Qiang king who burns Qiang, the questions they think about every day are always the same: it’s time to reward (tribute) some big money to the powerful Wei State in the north to buy a safe place; it’s time to fight with the poor and fierce country in the south.
It’s time to do some business with the Lingqiang people at a loss, so that they can make some money and buy safety; it’s time to do some business with the countries in the Western Regions to the west, and make a lot of money from them to enrich the treasury; it’s time to do some business with the Shenlang Qiang people in the southwest
After a war, the Shenlang Qiang with only 120,000 tribesmen dared to provoke the powerful and wealthy Shaodang Qiang. There is nothing to say. I will beat them to death!
In the process of taking inventory of his property these past few days, what Ma Su saw most were gold, silver, jewelry and Shu brocade, as well as boxes upon boxes of rare treasures. The boxes containing the jewelry were covered with dust.
There is only one reason why they are dusty.
Shaodang Qiang is so rich that there is no shortage of money!
Ma Su, a mathematical genius, made a rough estimate and found that the total assets in Shaodangqiang's warehouse were around 10 billion.
There is no doubt that the first thing that needs to be done is to keep all the money for yourself.
But, how to keep it for yourself? How to transport this huge sum of money?
This stumped Ma Su.
Transporting it away in an open and honest manner will definitely not work. Not to mention whether Shaoge and the Qiang people will object (they will definitely oppose it fiercely), the storage location is also a problem.
Due to the long distance and some inconvenient reasons to disclose, the money cannot be transported back to Chengdu. It cannot also be transported back to Xi County, the frontline of the confrontation between Wei and Shu.
After thinking about it, there is only one most reliable place to store it, which is Xianling Qiang Axiu's place.
However, whether Axiu will take advantage of his wealth and take Ma Su's treasure as his own is also a question that has to be considered.
According to the information that Ma Su has learned so far, the Xianling Qiang are very poor, the living conditions of the tribe are particularly poor, and there is a huge need for funds everywhere. Although Ma Su has become rich, he should give some support to the Xianling Qiang. But it is not possible to save the emergency.
If all the tens of billions of assets are divided among the poor, it will only give each Xianlingqiang clan member an extra fifty thousand yuan.
Just barely enough to build a nice house.
The nature of their poverty will not change,
Therefore, there are three top priorities.
The first is to deeply control the Shaodang Qiang and resist the possible revenge of the Wei State. The second is to come up with a reasonable excuse to take away the money. The third is to make A Xiu die devoted to him and never change her heart, and then deposit the money in her
There.
Ma Su nodded and had a rough plan in mind.
He is no longer a completely straight man, he knows how to win over the strong women of this era, and that is to firmly support her and support her behind her back.
In addition, create a highly intelligent multifunctional toy to tightly bind her body and soul, making her willing to become a slave to her emotions.
The whole plan is complicated.
It can be condensed into four words: embroidery plan.
Condensed into one word: Gan!
After making up his mind, Ma Su immediately sent someone to invite Axiu to come over.
Five days later, Axiu, accompanied by a group of warriors, arrived at the Shaodang Qiang Palace holding a tender, pink, fat baby waiting for feeding.
As soon as they met, he pushed the fat doll into Ma Su's hand, squinted his bright eyes and said with a smile: "He's cute, isn't he?"
"is yours."
Ma Su was so frightened that he jumped up and threw the fat baby out.
Fortunately, Axiu was quick and raised her hand to catch the fat baby, and then looked at it with resentful eyes.
Ma Su scratched his head and stood aside awkwardly, at a loss.
This fat baby really frightened him.
It had been less than a month since he last left Xianlingqiang. Before that, he and Axiu hadn't seen each other for more than a year.
Could it be that it was the last time I left Xianling Qiang...
The truth should be this.
Ma Su calmed down quickly and stared at Fatty carefully, but found nothing similar to him.
Unexpectedly, the embroidery plan was completed before it even started. No wonder the last time I threaded the needle and thread, it felt silkier than before.
