Northern Dynasties

When Yu Wentai heard this, his expression became even more joyful. He pointed at Yu Jin who was sitting next to him and laughed loudly: "The general thought he had a plan and invited good help, but he didn't expect to cause trouble, right? This kid is clever. Ying Shanzuo, don't take his words as a joke, if the food and drinks are not provided, my family's guests will not leave easily!"

After hearing the words, Yu Jin also twirled his beard and said with a smile: "It is precisely because I know that Boshan is interesting and refined, so I invite you to help. Things in the world, only love is precious, humble and mediocre, luck is inevitable, and jealousy is inevitable. How dare you cherish things to cover up your ugliness and harmonize people's feelings!"

A couple of relatives complimented each other in the hall, and Li Tai, an outsider, seemed a little embarrassed.

After a while, Yu Wentai signaled him to stand up, looked him up and down, and while motioning him to sit down, he smiled again: "I haven't seen you for a few months, the heroic spirit is renewed, the youth of glory, the fearlessness of age, it's really impressive. envious."

Sitting at the side, Yu Jin saw Daxingtai's undisguised admiration for Li Tai, so he smiled and said: "Li Lang should grow up with children for several years, and his demeanor will be even better. Huli Shaojun, who has a lot of expectations. But now he is still alone, is he arrogant and unwilling to give in, or is he already engaged in a marriage contract in Dongzhou Huli and unwilling to betray others?"

Li Tai also doesn't remember any old marriage agreement with him, and Li Zhusheng and other family members didn't mention it to him. After hearing the words, he replied: "I used to live in the household, but I was just frivolous and stubborn. He was reprimanded by his parents for damaging his family reputation, and only after becoming righteous did he restrain his old ways and change his past mistakes, and he became a bit vulgar, and there was no good relationship to bear."

After hearing the words, Yu Jin smiled again: "In that case, then you have to look carefully and be brave when you see it! It's lonely and brave to be proud in things, and happiness is when the yin and yang are in harmony. The family is harmonious and the heart is happy. In the Qing Dynasty, if there is a good woman in the household, there will be no worries..."

"The general taught him these things, but he was too worried. This kid seems to be open-minded, but restrained inside. Because his lost family is still uncertain, so he swallowed his words."

Before Yu Jin finished speaking, Yu Wentai interrupted, with a slightly unnatural expression, and after pondering for a while, he said to Li Tai: "Don't feel that the general's gossip is bothering you. Marriage, starting a family and starting a business are also the virtues of benevolent elders. But since you have a heart, you don’t have to succumb to the opinions of others. Although the characters in Kansai are simple, there is no lack of such things as enlightenment and elegance. We can see."

Seeing Da Xingtai interrupting his words, and talking about his personal problems to Li Tai in such a serious manner, Yu Jin suddenly realized that what he said was a bit redundant, so he laughed dryly to cover up the embarrassment in his expression .

Li Tai is not an idiot, after listening to Yu Wentai's words, subconsciously came up in his mind that last year, he and Cai You had dinner at Yuwen's house with Cai You on the way back to him. Some words.

At that time, he thought that it was Cai You who was greedy for him, and felt a little baffled by some of his words, but now, he felt that Cai You was greedy for him because he might be mistaken, and it turned out that there were other people who were really greedy for him.

After hearing what Yu Wentai meant, Li Tai felt secretly refreshed.There are no other messy calculations, but I am secretly pleased that you, a stinky black otter, are not exempt from Lao Tzu's charm, and you still plan to give me a soft meal.

...

But after this ecstasy, he felt a little unhappy, what is fate when it comes?Lao Tzu has grown into a tall man now, he has both the motivation and the ability to do business, and occasionally has a relatively hot demand. Isn't this called time?

As for saying that I am not in the mood to get married without seeing my father, this is just an excuse to decline others.His old man is just lost, not gone. He can't stop marrying all his life because of this, and that would be even more unfilial.

But now these words are borrowed by Yu Wentai to restrain him, which makes him a little uncomfortable.

It means that in Yu Wentai's heart, he does not belong to the first sequence of marriage wooing, just wait a little longer, my little cabbage hasn't grown up yet, the next crop, the next crop may be your turn!
Although Li Tai doesn't regard his feelings and life events as solemn and precious, he is ready to sell them for a good price at any time, and it's not too late to engage in love after he becomes famous.

But when he realized that he was really being picked and weighed by others, and he was not too eager to buy it, he still felt more or less frustrated in his self-esteem. I have betrayed my love and my soul. Are you afraid of dirtying your hands? ?
If you don't shout "Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi", think I have no temper, right?
Although shouting is not allowed, Li Tai did have some conflicting and rebellious thoughts in his heart.Of course he knew in his heart that it was normal for Yu Wentai to have such thoughts out of consideration of the pros and cons and the balance of the situation.

But I came to your house to have a soft meal with a bowl on my back, did I listen to your reasoning?What's more, you have so many daughters, and when it's my turn, there are still a few mouthfuls of food left!
Putting aside these distracting thoughts, what really made Li Tai feel a little sense of crisis was Yu Wentai's desire to control him and control his life in this matter.I can't marry anyone other than your daughter, can I?If it's not my turn, I have to be a bachelor all the time?

Although it is said that there is a lot of inner drama at the moment, Li Tai really feels the irresistible strength hidden by Yu Wentai under the appearance that he is getting closer and closer to him.

Regarding issues related to his own interests, as well as his future and destiny, Li Tai really couldn't relate to the idea of ​​a worker slave like "Daxingtai is not easy, the girls are still young, you have to bear with it, better days are to come" .

Therefore, after all, people still have to be self-improving, relying on others' favors and nepotism, don't worry about having enough food and clothing, do you want to eat leftovers?

He cleared up his mood a little bit, and stopped worrying about these miscellaneous thoughts. When Yu Wentai asked about the current business situation of Sanfang City, he answered it seriously.

When he heard that Li Tai had raised thousands of troops to guard the various places in just half a year, and the key point was that he hadn't added the slightest burden of money and food to the Bafu, Yu Wentai smiled again, and asked with a smile: " According to your opinion, if we add [-] troops to Dongxia Prefecture, how many years will it take to operate?"

Of course, the [-] men mentioned here cannot be the Zhuxiang regiments and field soldiers that Li Tai hastily recruited in Zhufang City, but the elite armed forces of the Sixth Army of the Bafu.

Although the combat effectiveness of elite troops is considerable, the cost of raising an army is also high. Not to mention the supplement of armour, staff and equipment, the food consumption of troops alone is an astonishing figure. If there is a high-intensity battle, the consumption will double again.

...

When Yu Wentai asked this question, it was obvious that the situation had improved this year and the replenishment of troops was going well, so he actually had some ideas of opening up a new front in northern Shaanxi and pointing his troops at Jinyang.

After pondering for a while, Li Tai shook his head and said, "Beizhou's wilderness has not yet been eradicated, and the people's sentiments have not yet been settled. Once disturbed, it will collapse. Last year, the high bandits suppressed the Hus in Lishi, Shilou and other places, and there were many Husbands. I fled to Hexi and hid in the wilds of Dongxia Prefecture. There may still be turmoil this winter, and the ministers will work hard to prepare for it. After this winter, the situation is bound to improve in the coming year. It is still not possible to permanently station an army and control Jinyang remotely."

After Yu Wentai listened, he nodded thoughtfully, and there was no great disappointment in his eyes, but he looked at Li Tai and sighed: "The thief is fierce, and it may not be able to end in one lifetime, Er Cao Shaoliu It’s not that there is no room for meritorious service. Boshan, although you are a latecomer in today’s class, you can be said to be a pioneer in the younger class. Inheriting the past and ushering in the future, you have a lot of responsibility!”

This is true. Of course, Li Tai's current status is not as good as these Beizhen heroes, but in this world, except for the Yuwen family's dragon-slaying team, there is really no rising star who can overwhelm him. his head.But when the next generation grows up, the regime of the Yuwen family is not far from death.

Several people chatted in the hall for a while, during which Yu Wentai still did not take the initiative to talk about the wages owed to Fangcheng. Instead, he asked how much food and silk supplies the Metropolitan Water Administration could deliver to the Bafu this year. It can be seen that after the extravagant spending at the beginning of the year, the current The Bafu's finances are a bit stretched again.

Luoshui has gone through a series of rectifications, and various water conservancy projects such as canals, weirs, and tunnels have been gradually integrated. Otherwise, Li Tai would never be able to support the nearly ten thousand Fangcheng troops with the resources in the countryside.

Li Tai made some calculations in his mind, and gave a price of [-] shi for grain and [-] horses of cloth, which can already be compared to a whole year's money, grain and taxes for a large county in the pass.

He can still cover up the affairs of the Three Defense City, but the official documents of the Metropolitan Water Administration are clear and clear. Even if Li Tai uses the canal alliance to switch from left to right, big accounts can't be fooled.

After all, it has been more than a year since the test method he proposed before, and it is difficult to hide any big moves within this charter, so it is better to tell the truth.

This can be regarded as shooting himself in the foot, but without the foreshadowing of these previous suggestions, he might not be able to achieve his current position.

When Yu Wentai heard this number, his eyebrows and eyes were also quite happy, and he made another request: "All the grain and silk of the administrative office will be converted into grain cakes for supply, and they will be transported to the Taiwan government before winter."

"If all the food and cakes are made, I am afraid that the loss will not be low. This autumn's state of Damin can be seen. At the end of the year, the grain will be cheap and the labor will be expensive. The administrative office itself is not enough to use it. If you make more cakes, you still need to work hard. Minjia."

The so-called folk house is naturally Li Tai himself, but with a business-like attitude, the cost still needs to be clearly stated.Our two families don't talk about each other, so you can pay what other people pay.

Yu Wentai didn't care about these details, and nodded after hearing the words: "Yes, this autumn, the grain and millet will be transported thickly, and some fine materials must be dumped for future use. Dushui should take advantage of the water conservancy and should not be idle. The villages in Huazhou All the harvest this autumn will be used to make cakes, and both the public and the private will be responsible for the consumption.”

Of course he also knew that Li Tai was the largest military ration supplier here, but even if all his assets and business were confiscated, he still had to hand it over to others.

It's not that he hasn't tried Taiwan's own production, but the cost is higher and the efficiency is lower.Simply leave this matter to Li Tai, after all, this kid is not easy, and it can be regarded as a reward for his hard work.

But Li Tai didn't see it that way. Since Xin Wei last year, his family's military ration orders have been in an endless stream, and he really doesn't want to deal with such a small profit order from the Taifu.

Yu Wentai was obviously occupying his productivity, so he could only take advantage of the situation to increase the price and increase the burden of supporting the military leaders, so as to make up for Li Lan.After all, I have become a supplier certified by Bafu, and you will be happy if you spend a little more money.

It's just that Guanzhong couldn't make up for the gap in productivity brought about by the increased demands of the Overlord's Mansion. It seems that we have to add a Buddhist ritual activity of grinding noodles and tamping cakes to the followers of Jihu in Luochuan Temple.

He wasn't worried about the adverse effects of this technology if it entered Jihu. If you want to make a big military ration, you must have so much food first.If you don't take off all your pants, you have to go out without wearing them!
