"Let's turn the cottage upside down, it's almost three feet to dig into the ground, and the money and property that are found are all here, please take a look." Today, the infantry of Panshi Fort performed very well, and Shi Jin was also in a good mood, it was rare that he did not speak seriously with a straight face, and made a joke.

So many Dong Ce didn't bother to look at them one by one, so he smiled and said: "Just say how many, so many copper coins, let the official count them one by one?" ”

This is also meant to be a joke in it, and of course not a reproach.

"There are more than 20 pieces of cloth, more than 430 taels of silver, not a cent of gold, not to mention jewelry, the most is money, drink, more than 600 catties! I can't count many. Zhou Zhong replied with a smile.

Fang Cai Shi Jin was talking, but at this time he answered, and he was inevitably suspected of stealing the words in front of Shangguan, and it was taboo to put it in another place, but now that the Rock Fort has not been established for a long time, the relationship between people and people is still simple, and Dong Ce and Shi Jin also know his flying and jumping temperament, and no one takes it seriously.

The seizures from Bai Mazi's house plus the silver coins found from all over the cottage amounted to more than 2,500 taels of silver, 346 taels of gold, a number of other jewels, and 600 catties of copper coins. Dong Strategy made a slight estimate, and the more than 600 catties of copper coins were almost equivalent to more than 100 taels of silver, and it was estimated that it would not reach 200 taels.

If gold is also converted into silver, then not counting the materials such as jewelry and silk, only cash, the income of this trip is nearly 8,000 taels of silver!

And if you count those jewels and everything, then there is no doubt that it is more than 10,000 taels!

Quite a lot! It can even be said to be a shocking benefit, who would have thought that a mere cottage could hide such a big benefit?

But Dong Ce was also relieved when he thought about it, Hutou Cottage, hundreds of horse thieves in the heyday of Bai Mazi's subordinates, for a long time, were also a big force within a radius of 100 miles north of Datong Town, that is, the idle military fort, hundreds of officers and soldiers, and they were not their opponents. After more than ten years, it is natural to be able to accumulate these wealth.

However, Bai Mazi is also indispensable, this one is really wealthy.

After checking these belongings, Dong Ce left Wang Tong behind, Wang Tong needs to sort out all these belongings, and then classify them, pack them and seal them, and at the same time prepare enough carriages for tomorrow's transportation. This is not an easy guy, Dong Ce left Wang Tong Pontus's family to him.

At this time, Wang Hun and Yelu Lihe also came back, the two of them shouted, the excitement on their faces had not yet subsided, his horse, his armor, and the weapons in his hands were all dripping with blood, obviously Fang Cai had made a fortune. Especially Yelu Lihe, the thick and heavy cooked copper shovel in his hand was covered with a thick layer of blood, which was also mixed with white things, and I don't know if it was brain.

Before they could catch their breath, Dong Ce ordered both of them and walked to the east of the village.

Their destination was a horse farm.

The horse farm is not in the cottage, after all, to raise so many war horses, you need a large area of land, and in the cottage, there are so many families, where is there such a large area to raise horses? Therefore, the horse farm is a separate village, in the east of the cottage, across both sides of the river, the length and width are about 50 zhang, the area is not small, almost one-third of the size of the cottage.

On all sides of the racecourse, fences were built instead of walls of earth and stone. The fence is made of a large wood five or six feet long, the thickness of the bowl mouth is sharpened and driven deep into the ground, and the gap between the two big trees is three inches wide, this width, not to mention tigers, wolves and wild bears, even older children can not drill through.

This is also to prevent the fierce beasts in the mountains from rushing in to harm those war horses, after all, in the eyes of horse thieves, war horses are also extremely valuable.

On this point, the views of the officers and soldiers and the horse thieves are also the same. The traditional horse breeding land of the Central Plains Dynasty was available in the Ming Dynasty, but this territory was able to provide hundreds of thousands of war horses for the imperial court in the Tang Dynasty, and now? Not to mention hundreds of thousands, I'm afraid that tens of thousands are difficult, and it is estimated that thousands of horses are about the same. In the Chongzhen period, the Ming Dynasty's horse politics almost collapsed, and the war horses in the army, if you count on the supply of the imperial court, it is a dream, even if it is a military town close to the horse-producing land such as the northern land of the nine sides, the war horse is also extremely scarce.

Shi Jin and Zhou Zhong knew very well the importance of war horses, so after defeating the horse thieves, they sent someone to take over the horse farm as soon as possible.

When Dong Ce came over, it was getting late, and there were already a lot of torches lit in the racecourse, and the lights were bright.

The first and second killer teams are responsible for guarding the racecourse, the first killer team is always Zheng Fakui, and the second killer team is a veteran who followed Dong Ce to kill thieves outside Shili Fort.

Dong Ce slowly drove forward, and they followed along to explain, after all, they came early, and they basically figured out the details.

Except for the south side, the other three sides of the stable, at a distance of a foot from the fence, are all built stables, which look a little old and quite old. Dong Ce found a random place, turned over and dismounted, and walked in. After entering, he looked around and nodded.

The stable was very spacious, the roof was high, the space was large, the floor was very clean, and there was a drinking trough on the wall facing the entrance door, and the floor was covered with thick and fluffy hay, which was quite pleasant to look at. And this hay may have just been replaced, and it doesn't smell like rot.

The horses were tied to the pillars, as if they were frightened by the sudden influx of strangers, and moved their hooves with some uneasiness.

"When the subordinates searched this horse farm, they caught two horse thieves who had come in, and they were working in this horse farm. The subordinates waited for the trial, and they said that the hay had been changed the day before yesterday, and it was all newly brought grass from the mountains. Zheng Fakui gave his tongue, so he said more along the way.

Dong Ce nodded and didn't say anything.

Walking around this stable that is more than ten zhang long, Dong Ce also has some feelings. When it comes to taking care of war horses, to be honest, in Dong Ce's opinion, the horse thieves seem to be doing better than their own families.

It's not that the family members don't care, it's just that they have just been a family member for a long time, but I'm afraid that they have never been in contact with war horses before this, and their habits of war horses are far less familiar than those of these horse thieves, and they are not so thoughtful about taking care of them.

This is something that can't be done, who calls himself to rise too fast, his foundation is too shallow, and there are not many professionals under his hands? If Bai Tianfu was born in a family like Bai Tianfu, needless to say, such people under his hands would definitely grab a lot of them.

Dong Ce then thought that this was also a good opportunity, since there were some of the horse thieves who were captured who specialized in doing things here, then after returning to Rock Fort, they could also build such a horse farm, and someone would take care of it, and they would choose people from among those horse thieves. Anyway, after accommodating this batch of war horses in the Tiger Head Cottage, the number of war horses owned by Panshi Fort is also very large, and such a special horse farm is needed.

In this way, the work of the family can be reduced, the only thing to worry about is whether these captives are loyal or not, if they use people who should not be used, these war horses are poisoned, and they all die overnight, then they really can't cry. It took about a quarter of an hour to look at the entire horse farm. In fact, according to the specifications of nearly 200 horses in this horse farm, this horse farm is still not big enough, and it is not enough for these horses to walk the bend. But horse thieves don't walk horses in the horse farm, there is a lot of space in the valley, and horses can be walked around the horse farm, so why do you have to crowd in the horse farm?
