Chapter 98 As a fine female matchmaker chooses to farm (47)

  She said before that why the Tartars outside the customs would attack the city every year.

  Because of lack of supplies!

  Now that the materials in the Yanguan market are increasing day by day with her allocation from Nanman and the counties along the way, the Tartars even thought of disguised as the people in the pass to sneak in and trade, which shows that they actually don't want to fight.

  Who would like to fight when there are sufficient supplies in the days of lean and yellow? Even militants have to eat first, don't they?

"In this case, let's set up a large market in the area connecting the inside and outside of the customs, and hold a big market every ten and a half months to facilitate the people inside and outside the customs to trade. Of course, in order to prevent the militants from the traders from mixing in, causing harm to the people in the customs Threats, you can send a firearms battalion team to the scene to maintain order, and when you encounter those who disrupt order, shoot them into the sky as a warning, and if they refuse to obey orders, they will be killed on the spot."

   "That's right." Yan Kejin thought of something with her, "It's not only to scare chickens and monkeys, but also to deter Tartars. Let's see if they dare to invade my big Yanhua."

  The couple met head-to-head and formulated a feasible plan, and Yan Kejin went back to the barracks to convene a meeting with the soldiers.

  Xu Yin took the nanny and others to count the large amount of stockpiled goods in the warehouse, and when the market was set up, they would pull them over to trade.

   It is best to exchange more wool and sheepskins in the hands of the Tartars, and see if we can use the existing looms to spin cashmere yarn to weave sweaters.

   It really didn’t work, so she, a little mechanical expert trained by the systematic skill book, had to modify one.

  Cow and goat milk is also a good nutritional product, but storage is a problem.

   I don’t know if the Tatars have invented the method of making milk powder and cheese. If not, she can help them.

  Xu Yin felt that she could always trust King Jinnan's work efficiency.

  No, the plan for opening the market was only made at noon, and I took my hands down to choose a location in the afternoon.

  The arrested Tartars were sent back.

  Yanguan military camp intends to open a large-scale market, which will be held every five days, and the news that people inside and outside the pass are welcome to come to trade, needs to be spread through their mouths.

   Not to mention the reaction of the Tartars, anyway, the people in the pass were opposed to it after they knew about it.

  As soon as they heard that it was proposed by King Jinnan, who was named the Great General of Megatron, crowds of people came to the gate of the mansion.

   All accused the Tartars of staring at Yanguan, wanting to conquer Yanguan again and again. It was not easy for the soldiers to defend the city. Why did you let them in? Isn't this leading the wolf into the house?

There are also some common people who heard from nowhere that King Jinnan was originally a prince, but was conferred the title of lord only after being deposed by the Holy Majesty. They even felt that Yan Kejin deliberately let the tartars enter the pass, maybe he wanted to take this opportunity to take revenge on the Holy Majesty... In short, the government The noise at the door is like a vegetable market.

  Yan Kejin was well prepared for this, with a tall body and a cool tone:

   "Do you want to live a stable life without war and chaos, or a life of refuge where there will be a wave of battles every now and then, and if you lose, you will be displaced?"

   "Is there even a need to ask? Who wants to leave their hometown and escape?"

   "That's it!"

  Yan Kejin raised his eyebrows: "If that's the case, why do you oppose trade with outsiders?"

   "That's Tartar! Tartar who kills without batting an eye! Isn't letting them in give them a chance to kill us?"

"The bazaar is open to Tartars. It doesn't mean that Tartars are allowed to enter the customs. It just provides a venue for everyone to get what they need. We have the daily necessities that Tartars need, and Tartars also have ours. What both sides want, trade and trade, can alleviate each other's living difficulties, why not do it? The problem you are worried about, this king will solve it. "

   Having said that, he winked at a soldier of the Firearms Battalion.

The soldier stepped forward, showed his improved gun, and fired a shot in the distance, but heard a "bang", the thick coffin board in front of a coffin shop was suddenly drilled in a puff of black smoke. a hole.

  The common people were dumbfounded and fell silent for a while.

  Yan Kejin's cold voice sounded again: "This is a musket, a weapon that is more powerful than a bow and arrow, and a spear. Anyone who dares to disrupt the transaction order can refer to this board for the end."

  That is a thick coffin board. No matter how powerful the arrow is, it can only penetrate a few centimeters and penetrate... That is no joke.

   Now, who dares to say anything.

   Speaking of which, when did Yanhua have such a powerful weapon?

  Not to mention the common people, most of the soldiers in the battalion have never seen the existence of the Firearms Battalion, and only people above the level of the ten thousand commanders knew about the existence of the Firearms Battalion.

   But now, not only the soldiers and common people at the bottom, but also the Tartars outside the pass have heard about it.

   "Is there really such a magical weapon?"

   "Second Prince, this villain saw this with his own eyes, and there is absolutely no falsehood."

  The current King of Tatar has four sons. The eldest prince and the second prince are irritable.

  The third prince and the fourth prince advocated peace talks, and now they are more determined in their choice, and persuaded the Tatar king one after another:

"Father, if Yanhua really invents this kind of extremely lethal weapon, once the war starts, it will be our soldiers who suffer the most. Our family has recuperated for two years before recovering this vitality. We really can't afford another casualty. Ah, I implore Father Wang to think twice!"

"Yes, father, Yan Kejin is a man of great martial arts and good at strategy. He became famous in the battle at Pingheguan five years ago. At that time, he was still a young man. Now, with such a powerful weapon in his hand, how can he fight against him?" Isn't the head given away for free? In Erchen's opinion, since Yan Kejin opened the market and allowed my family to go to trade, it can be seen that he also has the intention of negotiating peace, so it is better to discuss with him."

  The Tatar king looked at his eldest son and second son: "What do you brothers think?"

  How can I see it?

  Before shelving, it was definitely the main battle.

  It’s impossible not to fight, there is nothing to eat outside the pass as soon as winter comes, so how can we survive the long cold winter if we don’t grab some food and come back before autumn?

  Where to grab it? Isn't it just Guannei! It would be even better if we could knock down Yanguan in one go and turn it into our own territory.

  It's a pity that Yanhua's soldiers were not vegetarians, and they were beaten back every time they captured. Going back and forth like this, over and over again, the number of times they fought each other was seventy, eighty or ninety times, if not a hundred times.

   Now, Yan Kejin posted a notice on behalf of the Yanguan garrison, allowing them to go to the market for trade, which is not a good choice.

  Thinking of the supplies they had secretly sent spies into Yanguan City in exchange for the previous few times, the two brothers swallowed at the same time: "Why don't you trust them once?"

  If it was brought up by another Yanhua general, they would only think that the other party deliberately deceived them, trying to lure them into the customs, so that they could catch the turtles in the urn and catch them all in one go, but Yan Kejin is still worthy of trust.

  In this way, the Tatars welcomed the opening of the integrated bazaar of "one family inside the customs and outside the customs" with fear and a little hope.
