Chapter 347: Legacy
In this way, the exchange of interests between the two parties is reached.
Yang Feng gave his salt works and iron ore revenues to several members of the Anxi Army in exchange for them reserving the position of guard and capture for himself.
But that's not all.
There are also such as deterring the Grolu people, ensuring that the exiles are provided here first, in fact, the main force of the Tang Dynasty's immigration to the Western Regions is the exiles, and the taxes are used for their own use, there is nothing to say about this, the Jiedu envoys were originally their own taxes for their own use, and even purchased armor and weapons from here at military expense, anyway, they also have a share in the money, and there is also Yang Feng gave several generals an Arab horse, although these generals have such war horses, but one more BMW horse is still the most popular for them. In this way, everyone is basically happy, at this time, the little income of the broken leaves, it will not cause too much worry, after all, this place is different, if you want to remember, you have to see if you have the confidence to hang alone, and then say that the Anxi army does not provide military supplies to the broken leaf defenders, this is already sorry for the three thousand lonely soldiers, and they want too much, it will be too chilling.
In short, the exchange of interests was reached.
Immediately after eating and drinking, Yang Feng led Li Siye and his daughter Li Xiu......
This girl is sixteen this year, she was born in Qiuzi, her biological mother is a concubine, but because she follows Li Siye most of the time, she has been favored since she was a child, and this year, the Jiangmen girl does not have so many rules, not to mention that she was born and raised in the Western Regions, so she can not only ride a horse and shoot arrows but also make a horizontal knife, not to say anything about martial arts and the like, but also not a weak lady, otherwise it would be impossible to ride a horse and follow him to break leaves.
One more point.
According to Chen Quan's gossip, Yang Feng's deity seems to be with this Li Xiu......
"It's a legacy!"
Yang Feng looked at Li Xiu's back and muttered to himself.
The latter glanced back at him, and his pretty face turned red again.
Yang Feng immediately urged forward.
"Sister of the Li family, do you want to change to a faster way to get to Broken Leaves?"
He leaned over and said.
Li Xiu bowed his head and was silent.
"If you don't speak, you agree!"
Yang Feng said and took the reins in her hand.
Behind him, Li Siye snorted coldly, and his eyebrows stood up instantly.
Yang Fengcai doesn't care about this, what if I'll soak your daughter in front of you? As soon as he urged the horse, in Li Xiu's exclamation, he led her to accelerate forward immediately.
Later, Li Siye was so angry that he roared angrily and hurried to catch up, but after all, he was still a step slower, and after turning a mountain, he was stunned to find that at the end of the mountain road was actually a small wharf, a slender boat docked, Yang Feng, who had already arrived there, stopped, turned around and looked at him with a provocative smile, and then directly hugged Li Xiu off the horse, put it on the boat in her exclamation, and then jumped on the boat to open the penny......
"Deputy marshal, subordinates have taken the first step!"
Yang Feng shouted proudly.
The boat was moving rapidly along the mountain channel nearly ten feet wide, propelled by the current.
"Mah, this bunny is kind of interesting!"
Li Siye laughed instead of being angry in the back.
He watched Yang Feng and his daughter disappear into the river bay in front of him in a blink of an eye, and at this time, four other small boats of the same kind came slowly from the river bay supported by several soldiers.
"Vice Marshal, shall we also take a boat?"
Chen Quan, who was beside him, said with a smile.
At this time, Yang Feng was holding a light boat among the green waters and green mountains, carrying Li Xiu who was sitting in the bow of the boat, and walked through the mountains at a speed of more than fifty miles per hour.
"You're not coming to see me, are you?"
Yang Feng asked suddenly.
"Phew!"
Li Xiu returned a word.
"I know you're angry with those women, they're just slaves!"
Yang Feng said.
"Phew!"
Li Xiu returned him a word again.
This guy simply walked across from her, and the small wooden boat was immediately pressed to the bow of the boat, and Li Xiu, who was sitting on this thing for the first time, screamed in fright, and hurriedly moved back, and then Yang Feng sat down opposite her with a smile, and Li Xiu turned his head with a red face.
"A good thing for you!"
Yang Feng propped up his right hand and put his left hand behind his back and said.
Li Xiu ignored him.
Then his hand turned, and then reached out in front of her and unfolded.
Li Xiu exclaimed.
Because Yang Feng is an ice rose in his hand.
"Open your hands."
Yang Feng said.
Li Xiu opened her hand with a surprised face, and just when the ice rose fell into her palm, Yang Feng's hand suddenly flipped over, and grabbed her little hand at once, Li Xiu blushed and hurriedly pulled back, how could she pull it out.
"You let go, let it be seen!"
She said in a soft tone.
"Someone else sees? Who's here? ”
Yang Feng said speechlessly.
As he spoke, he had to hug people.
"Don't, don't!"
Li Xiu dodged weakly.
"Just hug, hug, you know? At the beginning, I almost died in the stone country, I was injured and escorted by the big cannibals, and I was about to die on the road and was thrown on the side of the road by them, at that time I was full of you, thinking that I would be separated from you from heaven and man, but fortunately I was rescued by the immortals and taught immortal arts, so I finally came alive and escaped from the enemy, and I have been waiting until now I can finally see you again, can't I hug it? ”
Yang Feng said shamelessly.
Li Xiu hesitated and lowered his head.
Yang Feng quickly threw the penny away, stretched out his hands and pulled her into his arms, unceremoniously held the pretty face, and the mouth was directly suppressed, Li Xiu was almost stupid, but he didn't expect her sweetheart to directly change her style, and she was stunned to see his lips printed on his lips, and even the tongue tried to move forward.
That's when ......
"Bang!"
A bang.
The boat shook violently.
The two screamed at the same time, Yang Feng quickly let go of his mouth and turned around, the wooden boat that no one controlled was crashing into the shore, and Li Xiu also came to his senses and pushed him away with a red face. Fortunately, it was hit in the mud and sand, and if it was about to hit the stones, the boat would definitely be broken, and Yang Feng was relieved to check that there was no water Yang Feng sighed a sigh of relief, laughed in Li Xiu's hateful gaze, picked up the penny and bracled off the riverbank, continued to go downstream, and soon drove past the intersection of another tributary, and then the river widened but the number of beaches was dense, and he didn't have the energy to tease Li Xiu so he could only concentrate on driving the boat, until he stopped near a small pier in front of the mountain, waiting for Li Siye and others behind to catch up.
"This is your iron ore?"
Li Siye didn't care about his daughter's problem, and looked ahead with a shocked expression.
A small boat docked next to the pier in front, two wooden booms stood, and a group of sturdy bearded women easily pulled the iron chains, lifted hundreds of pounds of cowhide bags full of crushed ore from the carriage, and then turned the boom, pulled another iron chain and put it on the boat, and after putting four such leather bags in a row, the small boat left the dock and sailed downstream. The other boat quickly waited for it, and at the same time threw the empty leather bags of the dock, which were loaded onto the empty four-wheeled carriages, and drove along a road marked by a different soil from the surrounding soil to a mountainside a dozen miles away, where a large speck of green could be seen, and even wooden houses could be seen around the spot.
"Look at this!"
Yang Feng smiled and handed over a brass pipe.
"What is this?"
Li Siye was stunned.
"My subordinates make their own clairvoyant mirrors, so they can see farther."
Yang Feng pulled away and said.
Of course, he can't pull down this kind of thing, but it is not disclosed at present, but he just experimented and burned a few transparent lenses, and then let him destroy the facilities together, this thing is too dangerous to get out under the current situation, there will be countless hungry wolves staring at him, enough for him to make a few telescopes, he built a total of twenty such telescopes, one for each of his six battalion commanders.
"How many good things do you have?"
Li Siye said in shock as he looked at the iron mine that suddenly approached in the telescope.
He was also shocked by the mines.
Hundreds of strong men on this mineral are using pickaxes to open pieces of ore, and then those bearded women use small hammers to crush them, put them in wooden trays to carefully select the high iron content, and send them to the leather pockets of those carriages, at least a thousand bearded women are laughing and working there, many of them obviously have big bellies.
"I've got you!"
Yang Feng said generously.
"Go back and bring one each to the Jieshuai and Cheng Shuai of the North Garden, and if there is a Huren caravan to bring good glass in the future, I will make a few more!"
Then he said.
There are still ten left, and he is going to give one to Li Longji, and then one to each of the hearty Jiedu envoys such as Guo Ziyi, and An Lushan will be spared, and he will determine the bad relationship between him and An Lushan from now on.
After seeing the mine, Li Siye and him continued to move forward by boat.
Although the distance from Atami to Broken Leaf was two hundred miles, and it took a whole day to ride a horse, and the horses had to be half exhausted, it only took two hours to go down the waterway, and they had reached the dock outside the city before dark.
And Yangfeng's steel base is here.
Li Siye didn't care much about his iron-smelting blast furnace and wrought iron furnace, mainly because he couldn't understand it, and the iron-smelting of the Tang Dynasty was originally the same small blast furnace, what shocked him was the miraculous hydraulic forging hammer, a thick iron plate cast out was placed below, and the forging hammer continued to rise and fall with the rotation of the water wheel driven by the water flow, and then the thickness of this iron plate continued to decrease with its ups and downs, and soon only half of the original was left. The craftsman in charge took a special ruler and clamped it to see the thickness, and gave it to the little apprentice with satisfaction, who then sent it to another slightly smaller forging hammer, the hammer head and anvil of this forging hammer are curved, the iron plate is placed in the center, and the hammer head is smashed into a heart guard, which is then handed over to the bearded girl next to him, who begins to skillfully pedal the grinder with his feet, the grinding wheel made of natural stone begins to grind the burrs on the edge, and the burr is then handed over to another bearded girl who uses a finer stone grinding wheel for polishing.
"It's called assembly line production!"
Yang Feng proudly picked up the heart shield and said.
