As soon as Zhu Gaochi entered the door,
He started yelling and complaining.
It's just that Su Yang used it too hard!
Originally, Prince Yan's Mansion had reserved some food and grass for the three guards to train.
This batch of grain and grass was not the one used by Guo Zi and others to plunder the people, but was exchanged by the Yan Palace for snowflakes and salt from the grassland barbarians.
I originally thought that this batch of supplies would be enough for the three guards to survive this winter.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, he would be completely eaten by three guards!
Zhang Yuzhu Neng saw that there was no food to cook, so how could he succeed, so he asked the Yan Palace for food.
After Zhu Di learned the news, he was dumbfounded and immediately sent the prince to Xishan.
I wouldn’t know if I didn’t check it out. I was really shocked when I checked it out!
No wonder the food is consumed so quickly. It turns out that the food for the three guards has increased several times compared to before!
Especially the five thousand elite soldiers who were the first to receive military training were not only served with white flour, steamed buns and rice every meal, but also had one meal of meat every day, which could be said to be full!
Damn it, five thousand soldiers are eating and drinking, how much is the loss?
Is Su Yang training troops?
You are raising pigs!
Zhu Gaochi immediately became furious and asked Zhang Yu, Zhu Neng and others why they gave such good treatment to the five thousand soldiers.
As a result, Zhang Yuzhu was able to directly block him by saying, "This is the young master's arrangement."
In desperation, Zhu Gaochi had no choice but to run to Su Yang shamelessly.
"My ancestor!"
"I really can't keep eating like this!"
"Prince Yan's Mansion will be completely empty by you!"
Big Fatty cried anxiously, as if Su Yang didn't agree and would immediately jump off the top of the mountain.
Su Yang curled his lips disdainfully when he heard this, "How can you raise elite soldiers without money or food? Why did you go there so early?"
Zhu Gaochi: "???"
Am I crazy?
what does it mean?
Who do you look down on?
Does Prince Yan’s Mansion have no money or food?
Besides, you are also from Prince Yan’s Mansion!
Big Fatty smiled bitterly and shook his head. He forced himself to hold back the anger in his heart and explained patiently.
"Young man Su, you also know that the imperial court has cut off the supply of grain and grass to Beiping Mansion, so food is very scarce now!"
"Earlier, with the salt refining technology you gave me, Prince Yan's Mansion could also use the salt to trade with the grassland barbarian tribes in exchange for some grain supplies."
"But now that the cold winter is coming, these tribes are unwilling to change life and death. They also want to keep food for the winter!"
"Although salt is a commodity in short supply on the grasslands, too much has been poured out in a short period of time. Those grassland tribes have eaten salt, and now it is no longer in short supply, so this path is considered dead!"
Zhu Gaochi cried with runny nose and tears. He felt so miserable that he just hugged Su Yang, his brother-in-law, and cried bitterly.
"You don't know!"
"To solve this food problem!"
"Prince Yan is about to turn his hair gray from worry, and Master Daoyan has been unable to sleep for several days."
"But it just happened that at this time, the three guards ate up all the food supplies. So what should we do next?"
When Su Yang heard this, he still didn't take it seriously and continued to huddle under the quilt with his head exposed.
"I can tell you, the treatment of those five thousand elite soldiers will never stop!"
"They now have to undergo physical training every day, which consumes a lot of energy. If they cannot get nutritional supplements in time, they will only weaken and die. By then, let alone elite soldiers, they will be worse than ordinary soldiers!"
"As for the issue of food and grass, this shouldn't be something I should consider, right? Back then you took me captive to the Western Mountains to train your troops. Now I have trained elite soldiers, and my combat power is far greater than before, but you told me that I have no food. This The problem is with you, not me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yang retracted his head into the quilt and made his attitude clear.
Are you kidding? He is not the counselor of Prince Yan's Palace. The lack of food in Prince Yan's Palace has nothing to do with him!
That bitch, King Zhu Laosi of Yan, had previously kidnapped him and sent him to the Western Mountains to train his troops. Su Yang has not yet settled this debt with Zhu Laosi!
Even if he, Su Yang, froze to death from starvation and jumped from the top of the West Mountain, he would not open his mouth to help Zhu Laosi solve any problems!
Seeing Su Yang's lazy look, Big Fatty simply used his trump card - cry.
As the saying goes, a child who cries gets milk.
Zhu Gaochi immediately began to cry loudly, shouting words such as "Why is my life so miserable?", "No one cares about King Yan when he is crazy", "I might as well just die" and other words. Listen to Su Yang was so annoyed that he wished he could beat this fat guy.
At this moment, the little girl suddenly appeared at the door.
Previously, Su Yang was busy training the new army. Because she was too bored, she often went down the mountain to the Xishan Village Workshop.
After going back and forth, I actually made a lot of good friends, so I often went down the mountain to play with them.
Of course, there are soldiers following her secretly, lest Princess Anle make any mistakes.
When Zhu Wanqiu came back and saw her eldest brother's appearance, she was immediately dumbfounded.
Big Fatty didn't expect that the little sister would come back suddenly, and he was stunned for a while.
Ahem, that’s so embarrassing!
The little girl was always smart, and she figured out what was going on in a blink of an eye.
Something must have gone wrong. The eldest brother came to my husband for help, but he was not willing to take action.
When she thought of this, the little girl also cried, and she sat at the door and cried loudly.
As soon as he heard Zhu Wanqiu's cry, Su Yang immediately became anxious, got up from the bed and rushed to the little girl's side.
"Xiaowan, what's going on?"
"I...I saw my eldest brother crying...I want to cry too..."
Oh my god, she is indeed my own girl, she is so good!
Zhu Gaochi quietly gave Zhu Wanqiu a thumbs up, then opened his mouth and was about to let go of his voice to cry, but Su Yang covered him.
"Okay, okay, isn't it just a matter of food?"
Su Yang felt helpless and took his little wife into the house.
"Ms. sir, just help me."
"You, you, there's really nothing I can do about you!"
Su Yang sighed and looked at Zhu Gaochi with an unkind look.
The big fat man laughed twice and looked at Su Yang expectantly.
Su Yang was too lazy to talk nonsense to him and pointed directly at the coal stove in the corner.
"What do you think of this stove?"
Big Fatty: “???”
stove?
How about it?
What can we do?
Isn’t it just a novel coal stove?
Big Fatty was a little dumbfounded. He carefully observed the stove, but couldn't figure out why.
"Su Yang, this stove is just a...stove!"
"Do you think those prairie barbarians will want this stove if they sell it?"
Hearing Su Yang's words, Big Fatty fell into deep thought, but then he shook his head.
"This iron stove is made of iron after all, so the price probably won't be cheap. Those Mongolian barbarians probably won't buy it, right? Just build a stove..."
"The Mongolian barbarians live in grass and grass, so they can't just build a stove wherever they go, right? It would be much more convenient if they had this iron stove."
Su Yang said calmly, "Also, this stove is not only very convenient to carry, but it can also be used for heating, barbecue and even cooking. There is a lot of dried dung from cattle and sheep on the grassland. Throw one or two pieces of dried dung in and they can cook a meal." It’s so convenient!”
"In addition, the anthracite reserves are almost gone, and it's time to put it on the market. Aren't the Mongolian barbarians afraid of the cold? The place where they live is colder than the Ming Dynasty!"
After listening to Su Yang's explanation, Zhu Gaochi's eyes suddenly lit up!
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that!"
"Su Yang, Su Yang, you are so smart!"
Su Yang found the blueprint of the coal stove and threw it directly to Zhu Gaochi.
"Hurry up and get out of here with the drawings, and don't bother me if you have nothing to do!"
"Hey... Okay, come back if you have something to do!"
"???"
