"Mr. Zhen? If you don't arrange the caravan matters, what's wrong?" Fang Zhiwen frowned, subconsciously gave in to the side, and stood on the side wind, saving him from being harassed by the fragrance from the opposite side. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, there were indeed men with makeup and powder, which became even more serious in the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

Mr. Zhen was a little stunned for a moment, and then understood the meaning of Fang Zhiwen's subconscious small movement. It was a little unnatural, and the movement seemed a little twisted or called "timid!", and he hated chills again! Fortunately, the light here is not very good. If this guy blushed his cheeks, it would be really...

"General Fang, those kung fu have their own arrangements. As the leader, you don't have to do it yourself. I want to thank the general and apologize. I shouldn't have doubted the general just now, so I'm going to take the wrong steps. Don't blame General Fang!"

"I understand, is there anything else?" Fang Zhiwen held Xiangxiang's little hand that was pulling her cuffs, not letting her cause trouble.

"This..." Mr. Zhen hesitated to look at the delicate young player standing beside Fang Zhiwen and only reaching the height of Fang Zhiwen's shoulders, a little hesitant.

"But it's okay."

"This time, General Fang was very grateful and dared not deceive the general. The caravan transported five thousand three yellow crossbows and a large number of crossbow arrows. As for the buyer's identity, Yan really didn't know. Now he had to go back to Shitai first and wait for the buyer to contact him."

Fang Zhiwen was very interested in this mysterious buyer. The power used by the Sanhuang Crossbow during defense is definitely greater than that during the attack. Could it be that the rebels purchased it to defend the city? It was exactly the same as the target of the Jiangxia rebels when they were sent to Pengze. If Lujiang also joins the rebels and takes the opportunity to take down Jiujiang, they can use the Yangtze River and the strong city to defend. If they become thieves, they will not be far from destruction.

"That's right, we'll go to the front line of the stone platform, but we won't enter the stone platform. Can you send you outside the city?"

"Thank you so much for General Fang. I'll ask General Fang to take care of the goods. I can't repay the kindness of saving my life. I feel that there is some wealth in my family, and I will definitely repay you at that time."

"Haha, how can Mr. Zhen Er want to repay me?" Fang Zhiwen pulled the corner of his mouth and asked carelessly, making Mr. Zhen Er stunned on the spot immediately.

"This... how about the reward for ten thousand gold?" After a moment of stunned silence, Mr. Zhen immediately answered, very cheerful. He spoke up for ten thousand gold, which is one million taels of silver. The price of this reward is quite good, but Fang Zhiwenzhi is not here.

Fang Zhiwen shook his hand: "I'm not short of money."

"This..." Mr. Zhen hesitated. He couldn't figure out what Fang Zhiwen wanted to do. After all, Fang Zhiwen had never clearly expressed his identity. He just said that he was a general in the Han army. If he didn't know Fang Zhiwen's background, he naturally could not judge Fang Zhiwen's purpose.

"I heard that the Zhen family is a giant merchant in Jizhou. There are caravans from the Zhen family from north to outside the Great Wall, south to Jiangdong, and west to Liangzhou. I wonder if this is the case?"

Mr. Zhen nodded proudly and said, "Although it is a little exaggerated, the Zhen family's business is indeed spread throughout the Thirteen Prefectures of the Han Dynasty."

"Very good. I want a promise from the Zhen family. I wonder if it is OK?"

"What is the promise?" Mr. Zhen frowned. As a businessman, he naturally knew that promises should never be easily agreed to.

"Young Master Zhen, don't be nervous. I have never told you my identity. I am a general in Yuyang, who also manages Miyun Fortress. Miyun Fortress has a population of tens of thousands, but it is located in the Miyun Mountains and is not suitable for farming. Therefore, it lacks food all year round. The promise I want is that the Zhen family will provide me with enough food for Miyun Fortress under the premise of being able to do so. Of course, I will purchase it at the market price. However, Miyun Fortress is located in a remote and poor environment, so I hope to use cattle, sheep, fur and other materials to barter. I wonder if it is feasible?"

Fang Zhiwen did not expect the other party to fully agree. This "enablement" and "enough" were definitely a serious promise, and the grain was the hardest hard currency at that time, so he just offered a price to wait for Mr. Zhen to bargain. As long as the Zhen family could promise to provide food for the Miyun Fortress and establish a channel for bartering, it was somewhat a supplement to the Miyun Fortress. In any case, the Zhen family's grain would definitely not be more expensive than the players.

"This... Yan didn't dare to be the head of the Zhen family, but Yan could agree to the general's request. The shops under Yan's name would definitely do their best to provide food for Miyunsai. However, before that, Yan would first build a shop in Miyunsai, which requires the general's care."

Fang Zhiwen frowned slightly. Is Zhen Yan's answer a little tricky? How many shops will be under his name? How much grain will be in operation? These are all unknowns. He agreed happily and quickly, and don't just make a thousand-eight-hundred-stone stone to fool himself.

Fang Zhiwen mainly wants food to raise troops. The troops in Miyunsai are all cavalry, each soldier is three kilograms of grain per day and horses each thirty kilograms of grain. However, two-thirds of the grass can be used here, but it is impossible to carry so much grass when fighting in winter. Therefore, the nomadic peoples have very poor continuous combat capabilities in winter, and this is the reason.

If you want to support 30,000 cavalry, the grain required every year is about 2 million stones. The current price of grain is 100 ounces per stone, which is one tael of silver, which is not expensive. However, when the Yellow Turbans are in chaos, the price may rise to 10,000 ounces per stone. Therefore, a stable supply of grain is very important. If not, then reserve enough food. The problem is that all players are predicting the uncertainty and the food is hidden tightly. The grain supply channel that Li Xueyin has established now is actually very bare. Therefore, Fang Zhiwen needs a channel that can supply a large amount of food so that he can store a large amount of food himself.

After such calculations, you will understand why in reality, Cao Cao could not afford to support cavalry? At that time, Dong Zhuo tried his best to collect money, but after Dong Zhuo died, where did the money go? The truth is that he raised so many cavalry and spent all the money to buy food.

The same is true in the game. In the end, the economic scale must be the economic scale. Although the player's city can provide certain resources, it is definitely not enough to support a large number of cavalry. As for infantry, it is relatively economical. Therefore, it can be foreseen that even in large-scale wars in the future, cavalry will still be a precious and powerful force.

Mr. Zhen Er was also a smart man. When he saw Fang Zhiwen's expression, he understood what he was worried about and immediately spoke: "General Fang, the grain he handled in his industry exceeds one million stones every year, and he will definitely give priority to Miyunsai."

Fang Zhiwen's expression then calmed down and said with a smile: "I have 10,000 cavalry in my hand, and I consume a million stones of grain every year. You have to pack your food for me."

"Since that's the case, let's give it to the general. When I hand over this batch of goods at Shitai, can I go north with the general?"

Mr. Zhen was very handsome and quickly agreed, which surprised Fang Zhiwen. His thoughts just now seemed a little too petty. Unexpectedly, this sissy was very refreshing. And looking at his expression, he seemed very concerned about how he could report to Fang Zhiwen.

Of course, Fang Zhiwen didn't know that the cattle and sheep fur in his hands also had great value in the hands of the Zhen family. The Zhen family has various workshops that can deeply process cattle and sheep fur to obtain higher value. This is the advantage of the industrial group. Now that the fierce battle in the north is in full swing, the supply of cattle and sheep fur in the Zhen family is already in short supply. Now with Fang Zhiwen's barter, the Zhen family not only does not lose money, but may not even make a big profit.

However, Fang Zhiwen was a little unhappy with the following sentence. Although Mr. Zhen's decisiveness and sincerity just now slightly changed Fang Zhiwen's view of him, getting along with this "spicy" man is always uncomfortable. If this guy really follows north, wouldn't he cause trouble for himself? But he is also trying to provide food to himself. Can't he refuse? For the sake of the great cause of food, he gritted his teeth and endured it!

"Okay, just this batch of goods doesn't matter?"

Mr. Zhen second smiled nicely: "I didn't need to come with this batch of goods in person, but I wanted to see the situation in Jingnan and Jiangdong, so I just came over there. Who knew that such a mistake had happened? Jia Fu told me just now that thanks to the general, he not only saved our lives, but also found the spies in the caravan. Speaking of spies, I dare to ask the general, why is Yi Ren interested in our caravan? Is it just for this batch of bows and crossbows?"

Fang Zhiwen curled his lips. This matter was probably a big system mission, otherwise the players would not know about it, and they would not have invested in attacking Huangyazhai. If we look at it this way, the buyers of this group of crossbows must be from the Jiangxia rebels. But they did not expect that it was their own ally Shanyue people who blocked the weapon delivery channel.

"Isn't this enough? The value of these crossbows is enough to make them take risks."

Mr. Zhen sighed without hesitation and looked at Fang Zhiwen deeply. He knew that Fang Zhiwen's words were perfunctory. In fact, he had some speculations about this matter, but he just wanted to hear Fang Zhiwen's thoughts, but he couldn't do anything if Fang Zhiwen didn't say it.

After all, I first showed my distrust in the hall just now. If I want to regain Fang Zhiwen’s trust, I cannot just talk about it, but do it in a real way. Food! Fang Zhiwen needs food. What he implies is that even millions of stones is still far from enough. This can be used, but it still needs to be discussed whether this Fang Zhiwen is worth investing.

From a personal perspective, Mr. Zhen Er is naturally very grateful to Fang Zhiwen. Moreover, the ancients pursued loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness as the foundation of their own life. Mr. Zhen Er is also a person who is knowledgeable about learning and rationality, so he naturally also admires these, but when it involves the interests of the family, he cannot mix personal grievances into it.

"Haha, so much like a retreat..."

"Mr. Zhen, so you are here, oh? General Fang is here too. I wonder what the two of you are talking about?" Mr. Zhu Qi suddenly flashed out of the gate of the courtyard and began to call Mr. Zhen intimately, but the words in his mouth were really annoying.

Fang Zhiwen didn't even look at it, nodded slightly at Mr. Zhen, gently pulled Xiangxiang, who had already fallen down. The two of them went down the stairs and quickly disappeared into the night.

"Sir! Mr. Zhen, such a rough man is not worth making friends. Let's go back. Let's talk to me wherever you go in the future. This is not very safe."

Mr. Zhen shook his head secretly, turned around and walked towards the inner chamber.

[We need to shift from the single-handed model to the community of interests. This is a necessity for the development of every force. Some people say that the protagonist developed too much outside the Great Wall in the early stage, with 10,000 or 20,000 cavalry, which was not fast at all. It took only two years for Mongolia to unify the northern desert. The protagonist struggled on the Great Wall for two years and only destroyed one Wuhuan movie, which was really slow.

Then I’m asking for votes! Dear everyone, don’t be stingy with the votes in your hands! If you don’t support me, how can I get the motivation? Haha, thank you!]
