After marrying a concubine, I have the ability to read minds

Chapter 319
"Have you seen Daxing's glass cousin?"

Shi Yan immediately took out a delicate mirror from her pocket, and used the mirror to admire her prosperous beauty, "You mean this?"

The eldest prince raised his eyelids, and then hummed, "I think this should be a pretty good business. What kind of distributors did Prince Yu recruit at the beginning, one agent for each region, cousin can try to be our Beiliang The sole dealer, a mirror is ten taels of silver, within two years, my cousin will definitely make a lot of money."

"Then what if Prince Yu wants to exchange our cattle, horses and sheep?"

The eldest prince said: "Then give it to him~ The price of the livestock sold to Daxing has nearly doubled, it's because you made a profit, okay?"

Shi Yan twitched her lips, Daxing tried to do business with Beiliang before, but the emperor was afraid that his good things would be captured by Daxing, so he kept blocking the border and prohibited doing business with Daxing.

Therefore, war horses, cattle and sheep have always been a specialty of Beiliang. Occasionally, the brave will secretly trade with Daxing people through special channels. If he buys a mirror from Daxing and trades it for silver, no one in Beiliang may say anything, but If cattle, horses and sheep were exchanged, it would take less than two years, two months, and the Shi family would probably have to exile the whole family.

Can only come quietly!
The carriage quickly arrived at the gate of the city. Because of the care of King Yu, Shi Yan and his party were released from the city without being checked. When they reached a sparsely populated place, the First Prince and Shi Yan made a disguise, and the carriage changed horses. Heading towards Youzhou City.

……

In Youzhou City.

The dark guards rushed on without stopping and finally arrived at Youzhou City before dark.

In the King of War, it was said that someone from the emperor asked to see him and immediately had the hidden guards brought into his study.

"Brother Huang, do you have something to order?"

The dark guard immediately took out the token and the map: "The emperor wants you to go to the place marked on the map as quickly as possible. There are [-] horses and [-] cows here. You have to find a way to get these cows and horses away quietly." return."

Zhan Wang: "Huh?" Going to drive cattle and horses on Beiliang's territory, you still have to do so quietly, what's the matter?
The dark guard explained: "King Yujun and the Young Patriarch of the Shi family reached an agreement to exchange [-] war horses for Prince Beiliang, and one horse can be replaced by two cows.

The Young Patriarch of the Shi Family can take away the Eldest Prince at any time. This location is a private ranch of the Shi Family. First, take these as the sincerity of the Shi Family. Yes, just pay off the cattle and horses and return them. "

The King of War understood after thinking about it. This is probably to prevent problems before they happen. In case the emperor of Beiliang backtracks, they can at least get the supplies traded with the Shi family, and the prince of Beiliang returned to Beiliang safely. There will definitely be a bloody storm!
"Well, you go to rest first."

Looking at the state of the dark guard, he was exhausted, and if he didn't rest, he would probably pass out.

The dark guard quickly thanked him, and a soldier arranged a place for him and served him meals. The dark guard fell asleep after taking a hasty bite. The horse galloped quickly and found a place called Gas Lake according to the route on the map.

No matter how careful the light cavalry team of nearly a thousand people was, the noise would not be too small, so Zhan Wang ordered his men to wait two miles away from the pasture, while he led a small group of people to the pasture.

There are patrolling wolf dogs in the ranch, and Zhanwang didn't come to rob the horse farm, so he let the dog bark twice, and then attracted the guards on the horse farm.

"Who is here? Why are you wandering outside our ranch in the middle of the night?"

The King of War immediately took out the token in his hand, "Young Patriarch has an order, take me to see your steward."

With the help of the light from the torch, the guard saw the pattern on the token, immediately put down his guard and put on a respectful face, and took a group of about ten men to the steward's residence.

The person in charge came out with his clothes on, and when he saw the token, he respectfully asked: "I don't know why you came here?"

"Young master ordered us to take away all the cattle and horses in the ranch, and please cooperate with the steward."

The king of war thought that the person in charge would definitely stop him, but he didn't. He just found a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, dipped the token in red mud, printed it on the paper, and asked the king of war to write down the number of cattle and horses he took away, and Sign the date, and let people go to the pen to drive cattle and horses.

The steward kindly reminded: "It's okay for horses to run hundreds of miles in two hours, but those cows have good stamina but slow speed. How do they move?"

Zhan Wang waved his hand: "It's okay, if you can't walk fast, just go slower, we will treat it as herding."

He found the leading horse among these horses at a glance, tied a rope around the neck of that horse, then turned on the horse, and walked back with these horses.

After reuniting with the remaining soldiers, the King of War handed over the top horse to Chen Rong: "You take the two teams to send these horses back, and the rest drive the cattle away."

Chen Rong knew that his prince had always been one-sided, and his decisions would never change. Moreover, these six thousand horses must be brought back to Youzhou safely. In the eyes of the common people, cattle are more important than horses, but in the eyes of soldiers like them, Horses are more important than themselves, and no one should be lost.

"Subordinates obey."

Turning on the horse, two teams of the thousand-man light cavalry came out. These people surrounded the horse, and under the leadership of Chen Rong's leading horse, they went straight to Youzhou City.

The King of War did not delay, he also surrounded the cattle together to prevent them from getting lost, and then drove the cattle on the road.

Because all the horses on Chen Rong's side were fast enough, they entered Youzhou City before dawn.These horses, which looked very strong at first glance, were brought to the camp of the Northern Army.

After Chen Rong counted the horses, he found that there were more than 600 adult horses, more than 300 foals, and dozens of pregnant mares. Those who had run for most of the night with their cubs and hens would be tired, and they even invited a veterinarian who specialized in caring for war horses, and then they had a busy meal.

However, no matter how busy they are, everyone is happy in their hearts. The thousands of fine-bred war horses are obviously different from the war horses in their camp. With these horses, they can breed more and better ones. War horses, in the future, I will never worry about my own horses not being able to outrun the people of Beiliang.

On the other hand, Zhan Wang encountered some small troubles.

Comparing with horses, the speed is really too slow. It was almost dawn, and they only walked a third of the distance, and they would occasionally meet a few herdsmen from Beiliang on the way.

Those people always looked at their group with very strange eyes. Fortunately, there were not many people on the other side, and there were enough people brought by the King of War, but no one stepped forward to question them.
