This asking price is a bit high. It is equivalent to selling the head of a Hou Jinjun for two hundred taels of silver, which is four or five times the imperial head reward.
Li Weida did not comment and looked at Geng Zhangguang and Geng Zhanghua.
Geng Zhangguang said: "We need at least level ten, is Mr. Huang sure?"
"First give twenty pairs of fine iron chain armor as a deposit, and one month later the tenth level will be delivered here."
The naughty Huang Yi estimated that Mr. Geng had brought ten or twenty servants equipped with iron armor, so he reported this number in order to take off all the clothes of those servants.
Seeing Huang Yi agreeing so readily, the Geng brothers looked at each other again, both showing excitement.
They didn't doubt whether Huang Yi was bragging at all, because the ninety-seven real young Tatar heads had been seen with their own eyes.
The two brothers knew in their hearts that if they could get another tenth-level real slave, plus the ninety-seven real Tatar heads that they had already obtained, this contribution would not only restore their father's official position, but also allow the relevant civil and military generals to be promoted. Lord.
The benefits here are huge!
To be on the safe side, Geng Zhangguang emphasized: "Make sure the slaves are young and middle-aged!"
Huang Yi said confidently: "Make sure every head is backed by the Hou Jin Army's waist card!"
"Deal!" Geng Zhangguang shouted, then reached out and gave Huang Yi a high-five.
Geng Zhanghua also stepped forward and high-fived Huang Yi three times.
Of course he realized that Geng Zhangguang was going to keep the armors of his servants, but he didn't feel much because these armors didn't cost much money in the first place.
But he pulled Geng Zhangguang over and reminded him: "Brother, we can only get seventeen pairs of armor at the moment!"
"Don't you and I also have a pair of iron armor?"
Geng Zhanghua also likes weapons and armor. His and Geng Zhangguang's armors are carefully made by master craftsmen. They are of high quality and are absolutely exquisite.
This is in line with common sense. The governor's son, that craftsman dares to slack off?
Who cares about the materials and labor hours used to make armor for them?
The quality of the products made by master craftsmen is of course top-notch!
He was a little reluctant to part with it and said weakly: "Give him our armor too?"
"The iron armor is worth the money if it is given to a hero like Huang Baihu who dares to fight against the Jian slaves and Tatars! What is the use of keeping it for us?"
"Yeah! I listen to you, but what's missing?"
"It doesn't matter!"
Geng Zhangguang clasped his fists at Huang Yi again and said, "Huang Baihu, one of our brothers' armors is worth as much as two pairs of armors on the market. Are you..."
After time traveling, Huang Yi's strength increased by at least two or three times, he also grew long black hair, and he also had sharp ears and eyesight.
Huang Yi could clearly hear the whispered conversation between the two brothers just now, and he immediately expressed his stance:
"Just nineteen armors. Don't worry, you two. As long as I'm still alive, there's no chance that the heads of slaves I'll bring you will be less than ten in a month."
Geng Zhangguang and Geng Zhanghua became even more convinced when they saw Huang Yi's confident expression.
They both bowed deeply and said, "We are waiting for good news!"
Huang Yi returned the greeting and said: "You two are welcome. The reason why we must get the iron armor first is because basically everyone in Jiannu is equipped with two layers of armor. If my men and horses are at a disadvantage in terms of equipment, casualties will increase."
Geng Zhangguang and Geng Zhanghua both nodded and said, "Huang Baihu doesn't need to explain, we can understand this!"
After the conditions were agreed upon, of course the delivery would be on-site. Manager Li ordered the guys to transport refined iron and grain from the warehouse in Zhangjiakou to deliver the goods here.
Geng Zhangguang immediately asked his servants to take off their armor and sent two people back to Zhangjiakou to pick up their armor.
In order to save time, Huang Yi suggested that Butler Li directly use the 120 large trucks he carried to load the goods, and took out a list and asked him to help purchase the supplies listed on the list.
Huang Yi is still prepared to spend all his gold and silver treasures to buy as much supplies as possible. If other supplies are enough, he will use all the remaining gold and silver treasures to buy refined iron and wheat.
This is already the second transaction. The two parties are familiar with each other and have trust in each other, so the delivery is relatively smooth.
The specific work is done by the clerks and servants. Li Weida, Geng Zhangguang, and Geng Zhanghua still accompany Huang Yi to drink tea and chat.
After about two or three hours, Li Si'en came back happily, and as expected, he brought Huang Yi's hundreds of official certificates.
This shows that the civil and military generals in Zhangjiakou have been fed by merchants for a long time.
Huang Yi knew it was interesting, so he immediately pulled Li Sien aside and gave them both a large silver ingot.
These two ingots are official silver, each ingot is twenty-five taels, and they are heavy in the hand.
The annual salary of a county magistrate is only fifty or sixty taels of silver. Li Sien got fifty taels of silver for doing some tricks, and of course he was very happy.
Not only him, Huang Yi also exchanged Tatar heads for a lot of grain and steel. Zhi, Yong, Shuang, Quan, Zhang Dong, etc. who participated in the transaction last time and Lan Jinkui and Qi Xiaoshan who participated for the first time. , He Jiye, etc. are all smiling.
It's just that they have a little doubt in their minds.
Why did the master agree to get a level 10 real slave?
Is it easy to get the heads of Jiannu? Where to do it?
During this period, the master and Hedanbaat'er led thousands of troops to kill several Mongolian tribes in succession, but they never saw a single slave!
Why do you dare to guarantee it?
This is the benefit of foresight!
How could Huang Yi talk empty words? He had already thought about it.
Last year, it would have been extremely difficult to remove the slave's head.
But this year is completely different.
Tens of thousands later, the Jin army entered the pass. One after another, Niu Lu and Jia Lahui, who robbed large amounts of gold and silver treasures, livestock, and people, sent some armored men to escort the looting results back to Liaodong.
The banner owners of the Jiannu who entered the customs must also send messengers to contact Shenyang to deliver gold and silver treasures to their homes.
During this period, there were many remaining Jiannu slaves who heard that the brothers who had entered the customs were robbing a lot of money, and took the initiative to come in groups.
Huang Yi has a telescope. How many real slaves did the Hou Jin Army have in total? It is absolutely impossible to exceed 30,000.
The route from Gyeonggi to Shenyang does not go through Shanhaiguan and takes the Liaoxi Corridor, but instead goes around the eastern foot of the Yanshan Mountains. The distance on the map is more than two thousand miles. If you walk or ride a horse, it is probably no less than four thousand miles.
Huang Taiji also has to communicate with Shenyang regularly. With such a long journey, who can ensure the safety of the messengers, messengers, and sentry horses?
Huang Yi chose to wait and wait in the areas of Da'ankou, Longjingguan and Hongshankou, and specially selected a few slave-building teams to ambush. As long as they succeeded two or three times, the deal would be completed.
Of course, the key to success is not only the telescope, but also the fact that he has the Hu Xiaochuan brothers, Chalahe, Gerda, Langha and other eighteen infantry combatants whose combat effectiveness is not weaker than that of Jiannu. The cavalry battle completely crushed the Mongolian armored knights who built the slaves.
have to! Originally, not all of them were armored knights, but after acquiring nineteen pieces of armor from the Geng family, the number of armored warriors under Huang Yi's command reached thirty.
Why did he become an armored warrior again?
That's because after intensive training, Yao Yongchao, Huang Daquan and other Han people were able to fight against the Jiannu infantry. They could only ride horses and did not have the ability to fight on horseback.
Huang Yi planned to take thirty-six men, seventy-two horses, and half a month's supplies to the place where slaves must pass through outside Longjing Pass to fight guerrilla warfare and ambush for a few days.
If you are lucky, you can complete the task on the same day and evacuate the battlefield without anyone noticing.
When going to a strange place to fight guerrillas, it is not enough to just have a telescope. It is best to find a reliable guide.
The Li family business has business all over the country, and there must be a lot of resources that can be mobilized, so Huang Yi clasped his fists at Li Weida and said:
"Can you please help me find a guide who is familiar with Da'ankou and Longjingguan areas? I will pay a high price, and the trip will last for up to thirty days, and I will give you thirty taels of silver!"
Before Li Dongjia could speak, Yang Shihu, who was standing aside, said in a daze: "Sure enough, I will be given thirty taels of silver for being a guide for only thirty days!"
Huang Yi said solemnly: "It's absolutely true, but if the guide is not familiar with the terrain at all and leads us around randomly or blindly and makes a big mistake, not only will we not get any money, but we will also have to keep our heads!"
Li Si'en smiled and asked Yang Shihu, "Do you want to earn these thirty taels of silver?"
Yang Shihu saluted respectfully and said: "Please do it, sir!"
