Chapter 831: The Death of Change (1)
When the people who responded to the post station rushed to the trapped place with the sleigh, Su Jin and Yeli Duanyun were sitting at the entrance of the cave eating the charred hare, and the two were fighting hand-to-hand in the cave when the hare was roasted, and it was almost a quarter of an hour when Yeli Duanyun was unable to support and call for mercy.
A quarter of an hour is only half an hour converted into modern time, but Su Jin, who has experienced a hundred battles, is naturally more than enough to deal with this chick, and the time is too long for a hare grilled on the fire, so that it is burnt, but the two of them eat very sweetly.
The receiver arrived, everyone rested for a while and then went on the road north, the line was far away, Yeli Duanyun sat on the sleigh and still looked back, in the hole of the simple hiding place, it was the place where he changed from a girl to a real woman, Yeli Duanyun decided, in the future, he would often come here to see and commemorate his first time.
Although the snow is thick, the sunny day after the snow also makes the thick snow melt quite quickly, especially this is the Gobi wilderness, gravel and gravel account for the majority, the temperature rises quickly under the sunlight during the day, and in less than a few days, the knee-deep snow melts almost away, and the melted snow soon penetrates into the gravel without a trace, and within a few days, the wasteland becomes dry brown again.
Everyone started from the first post station, a journey of fifty miles a day, traveled for five days, and finally completed all the routes they traveled, and there was no one on the way, and not a single ghost shadow was seen, which made Su Jin very satisfied, and the two countries of Song and Xia complied with the peace agreement, and used this wasteland as a buffer zone, and did not send personnel to garrison; And this place is really not suitable for garrisoning, there is no river for hundreds of miles, and the gravel and gravel all over the ground are really difficult to walk.
Compared with the three post stations built by Su Jin, the two post stations built by the Yeli tribe are much simpler, it may be that the nomads are not good at building, they just circled the fence and set up a few tents and it was over, although Su Jin said that the money for the construction of the post station would come out by himself, but the party people are not so particular, you just give him a mountain of gold, and he will only cause a pimple of, teaching people helplessly.
After the Tianti Mountain Canyon in the southwest of Liangzhou, further northwest is the desert, along the edge of the desert to the north across Liangzhou to the Yeli tribe fiefdom; Although it is difficult to part with the honey oil blended with Yeli Duanyun, when he arrived at Tianti Mountain, Su Jin still decided to go home.
After marking the route along the way, and all the major problems are correct, the transaction between the two parties can proceed smoothly; Although extremely reluctant, but Yeli Duanyun was helpless, the two sides agreed that Su Jin first ordered the convoy to transport the grain to the main village of the Yeli tribe, and then followed the herdsmen of the Yeli tribe to drive the horses to the south, and the returning cart could also be loaded with water, grain, grass tents and other things to be eaten on the road.
On the night of parting, Su Jin and Yeli Duanyun lingered in the tent all night, Su Jin's body was bitten by Yeli Duanyun rows of tooth marks, tears, sweat and unknown water made the two of them wet; In the early hours of the morning, Yeli Duanyun took a bath with Su Jin, and the two hugged each other and whispered, and they were reluctant to go north and south.
Su Jin was very conflicted, and he didn't know why he was so open. Dang, it is unimaginable in the future generations, he only had the school flower in his eyes back then, as a college student who looks handsome and has a sense of humor, some girls will secretly send Qiubo some hints in his words, but he regarded it like a mustard back then; Now in this dynasty, how did he give up such an unswerving good quality and become a love for one.
Like Yeli Duanyun and Li Ahri, one is the female leader of the Yeli tribe, and the other is Li Yuanhao's beloved daughter, no matter what, he can't marry them, but he has a bad relationship with them, and he really has no clue how to deal with them in the future. It is easy to eat and wipe clean, pat your ass and leave, but this prodigal son's behavior seems to be somewhat irresponsible.
On the way home, Su Jin made up his mind that everything was decided by the will of heaven, if Li Ahri and Yeli Duanyun were willing to follow him regardless of their identity, of course they would not refuse to come, and if they were unwilling to follow them with their self-respecting identity, then they would give up.
Half a month of preparation, the first transaction between the two sides went quietly and smoothly, only Li Chong, Pan Jiang and a few henchmen around Su Jin knew about it, Li Chong was originally worried that Su Jin would stab Lou Zi, when Su Jin quietly told him that this matter had been approved by Zhao Zhen, Li Chong realized that Su Jin had already arranged all the back roads.
After the first battle in Weizhou, Pan Jiang was promoted to the deputy commander of the Jingyuan Road Deployment, and concurrently served as the commander of the Weizhou Deployment, which can be described as the time when the scenery was prosperous, all thanks to Su Jin's support, twice followed Su Jin on errands, and both times were afraid of a section at night, and the situation has been promoted to three levels in the next year, and the official residence has been promoted from the position of a fourth-grade military general, which is also a miracle in the promotion of military attaches in the Great Song Dynasty.
All this is due to Su Jin, Pan Jiang is naturally desperate for Su Jin, when Su Jin's grain transport team set off, Pan Jiang also mobilized the army to make a feint to make a levy, to cover a large number of grain trucks to go out, which can be described as extremely shrewd.
The first batch of 5,000 war horses and 350,000 stone grain transactions were completed on February 20, 5,000 war horses were directly driven to the horse farm in the south of Longshan Mountain to be kept in captivity, because the pasture was not completed, this batch of dirty and thin horses can only be kept in captivity, Su Jin ordered people to feed and add concentrate, after a month of recuperation, the horses' appearance has changed greatly, become oily and slippery, and the muscles are also strong, and the only thing needed now is to be stocked after the pasture is built, and train their running ability.
In May, the second batch of 5,000 war horses was also completed, 10,000 horses chewed day and night is really not a small amount, calculated that these two transactions have cost nearly 700,000 yuan, in such a consumption even if each horse has a profit of fifty or sixty yuan, this 10,000 horses can not make a few dollars, although on the one hand, he smuggled war horses for the needs of the Song army, but Su Jin has not yet been noble to the point of fat public damage to private interests, so Su Jin decided to go back to the capital, he wanted to talk to Zhao Zhen about the conditions.
One is the price at which the imperial court buys these horses, and the other is the subsidy for the forage that these horses are kept in captivity, as long as the imperial court is willing to give money, it is easy to say anything, even if it is to help the imperial court keep them in captivity for a lifetime.
One day in mid-May, Su Jin rushed back to the capital, and before entering the capital, Su Jin felt that the atmosphere in Beijing was completely different from that in the past; In the past, when entering Beijing, as long as the news of returning to Beijing was public, Fubi Ouyang Xiu would definitely come to greet him, and there were always a few officials and colleagues of all sizes who came to greet him, and the scene was also lively.
But this time, in addition to the chariots and horses of their own domestic servants at the gate of the city, only the steward of the Yan Mansion was waiting here; Su Jin thought about it and understood the truth, last time Fu Bi Han Qi and others went to congratulate Hu'er on the full moon, and the change he talked about to pull himself in, he didn't agree, he offended them, and now they naturally think that they are not friends enough, and it is reasonable not to come to greet them.
Su Jin was a little melancholy, he still took his feelings too seriously, in fact, in the officialdom, he didn't care about his friends and relatives, some just complemented each other's interests, if you are useful to me, I will bird you, if you are useless to me, I will not give you a good face; Even if he is a famous general respected by later generations, he cannot get rid of the utilitarian heart; Once he saw it through, Su Jin was also relieved.
There were no relatives in his house, so Su Jin only went home to rest for a while, and then went to Yan Mansion to meet Yan Shu first.
It was in the afternoon, Yan Shu got up from a nap, and was sipping this year's new tea in the hall, when he heard that Su Jin was coming, he was busy asking Su Jin to come in; Su Jin ordered the people to bring the large bags of gifts brought to the flower hall and set up a full table, and said with a smile: "How is Lord Sansi doing?" These are the local specialties that Biyun and their friends collected in the northwest, what kind of mountain ginseng and wolfberry and other things, Lord Sansi smiled and accepted it, this is their filial piety. ”
Yan Shu smiled and said: "Naturally, they are going to be accepted, they are okay in Gyeongju, how is my nephew Hu'er?" ”
Su Jin said with a smile: "One has already germinated in the lower teeth, and Biyun also taught him to learn the language, teaching Master Sansi's 'Helpless flowers fall, déjà vu Yan returns'." ”
Yan Shu laughed and said, "Nonsense! How can a six-month-old child learn this, this is also too anxious. ”
Su Jin smiled: "Let them go, anyway, it's not a big deal to revolve around a child all day long; Hey? What about the rich guy? Why didn't you see him? Isn't he here seven or eight out of ten days? ”
Yan Shu's face changed, and suddenly a cloud shrouded him, and he said angrily: "Don't mention him, the old man was angry when he mentioned his name, he wanted to come, how could the old man let him come to the door." ”
Su Jin said suspiciously: "What's the matter?" Why is Sanji-sama indignant at him? ”
Yan Shu looked at Su Jin and said: "I'm afraid you don't know yet, a few of them are making too much trouble, and the court is stirred up by them, and they don't listen to what the old man says." ”
Su Jin was shocked: "How can this be? ”
