Chapter 557 The New General

Zahegan is still a prisoner now.

He and his subordinates were shackles on their feet. They did not affect their work, but could prevent them from rioting.

Zhahegan was brought over and walked very slowly. When he saw Xiao Jingcheng, he did not dare to show any arrogance because it was Xiao Jingcheng who captured him.

Xiao Jingcheng asked him to sit down and asked someone to bring him a bowl of milk tea.

The tea leaves were brought by Xiao Jingcheng, the milk is from the grassland, and honey is added, which is very sweet.

I wish I could eat the bowl together.

They had no grains to eat, so they were very greedy for tea from the Central Plains. Unfortunately, tea is very expensive, and the people of Liang always extorted.

It's rare to drink all year round.

"...Your wife and son are okay?" Xiao Jingcheng asked him.

Zhahe fucked his body slightly stiffened, and he was very worried that Xiao Jingcheng would let his wife and children go to Liang Guo as hostage.

"She is in a bad state, the child cannot leave her mother, and the child has not been weaned yet." Zhahegan was a little nervous and spoke anxiously. She even stood up and took two steps towards Xiao Jingcheng.

Xiao Jingcheng's personal soldiers immediately drew their swords and scolded them.

"Don't worry, I have never made any decisions about your family." Xiao Jingcheng said lightly, "Your wife and children are all saved by this conscience of the king, so we are considered a bit destined."

It’s hard to solve the problem of tying together.

Xiao Mingyu, who was standing beside him, was speechless about this.

"...Princess Chengyang, she is the commander's consort." The personal soldiers explained to Zahegan.

Zhahegan then realized it.

Seeing that people on the wasteland did not understand the political tactics of the Central Plains, and gossiping would only scare Zhahegan, Xiao Jingcheng decided to gossip straight to the point.

"I'm asking you to come for two things." Xiao Jingcheng said.

Zhahegan obeys the orders respectfully.

"I will return all your tribes and cattle and sheep, and then set a pasture for you. If other tribes come to your pasture, it will infringe on your interests. You can ask the Baiya Town garrison to drive them away.

However, I also have a request: the court wants to meet the governor and governor here, and I want you to serve as the governor and governor of the court. If you guard this place, you may do it?" Xiao Jingcheng asked.

Xue Mei told Xiao Jingcheng that later generations had a good political system for remote places, called "autonomousness".

The remnants of the Huns were used to manage this land and manage the remaining remnants.

They were counted as Liang, but Liang would not send troops to control them.

What Liang State had to do was to open a business road in Baiya Town so that more people, even Chu and Qi, would come here to do business.

After hearing this, Xiao Jingcheng thought this idea was good.

It happened that the court asked Xiao Jingcheng to select a general in governor.

It seems that it is not suitable for anyone to choose, so it is better to choose a tied job.

Xue Mei also said that in the history of later generations, there were indeed Turkic people who surrendered and controlled the Turkic people in turn, and they did better than the Central Plains people.

He is young, but he is not stupid.

He could become a minister of Liang State, and he had surrendered; at the same time, he would also become the manager of this land and let the flames of war be extinguished.

"I... can I be the general of the governor?" Zhahegan was surprised and happy for a moment, and was unbelievable, "I will definitely live up to the general!"

He was very good at it, without any awkwardness.

Xiao Mingyu looked around, a little disdainful, and thought to himself: "Traitor."

Xiao Jingcheng has no prejudice against Zhahegan.

Only he knew how difficult life was in the wasteland. Only by being able to make a way with the court, communicate with each other, and have the skills to work together with his subordinates to survive.

Zuhegan has learned to pickle bacon and make fur with nitrate. What he needs most now is to turn the skills that the princess has given them into a tool for eating.

You cannot live in peace with the people of Liang, and you cannot cross the barrier of Baiya Town. These crafts are small crafts and are of little use.

As for "traitors" or something, Zhahegan doesn't care at all. He just wants his family and his subordinates to survive and fill his stomach.

"It's good if you agree." Xiao Jingcheng was rarely kind, "Since that's the case, the sheep oil and butter you made will be given to you, as the reward for your work this time."

Killing: "..."

What does he want that oil?

The beef and mutton that the Huns usually ate was very greasy and there was no need to add oil.

When the princess asked them to stand up, they all thought the princess was going to take it back to the capital.

When the weather is cool, butter and lamb oil are as white as condensed fat, and are particularly fragrant and easy to carry.

Zhahegan never thought about what to ask for. The prisoners have food to eat, and can they still need rewards to help with the work?

It is already grace to not kill them.

"Master, we don't want this." Zhahegan Road, "Let's give it to the princess."

"The princess gives you a reward of 5,000 kilograms in total, you can make a deal with this prince." Xiao Jingcheng pointed to Xiao Mingyu next to him.

Xiao Mingyu cleared his throat and nodded after rushing to the slaughter.

Zahegan knew him because he had also helped slaughter cattle and sheep, and was often by the princess's side.

"How...trading?" Zahegan was confused.

"It depends on what you need." Xiao Mingyu said lightly, "I have three things to trade with you: wheat rice, tea leaves and cloth."

The dry eyes lit up: "Really?"

"certainly."

"Then I'll change!" He said immediately, and after he finished speaking, he remembered that he didn't know the conditions yet, "How to change?"

"Merry rice is the cheapest. You can change to a bag of twenty kilograms of oil, but I only have fifty bags. The cloth is a little more expensive. If you change to a piece of cloth, it is the coarse cloth you wear. Of course, tea is the most expensive, 200 kilograms of oil to a kilogram of tea." Xiao Mingyu said.

His wheat rice is the rice from the previous year, which is not valuable; and his cloth is also a relatively durable coarse cloth. If he brought silk, the Huns would not want to wear it, and it would easily get worn out. Only the coarse cloth is wear-resistant and used.

And tea is not a good tea.

In short, if it is the price of Central Plains, all Xiao Mingyu's things need to be increased fifty times before they can be exchanged.

Zhahegan but was stunned.

He didn't know how to count, but he was very excited and said to Xiao Mingyu: "I will change, I will change it! I will go to find the princess! The handsome man, let me find the princess."

"What do you want to do with the princess?"

"The princess can do it, I won't." Zhahegan Road.

Xiao Mingyu: “…”

Xiao Jingcheng: “…”

This is not a fool.

Xiao Mingyu told him that he could calculate for him. However, Zhahegan's expression was very embarrassing. His eyes were telling Xiao Mingyu that he didn't believe it.

Xiao Jingcheng wanted to be this middleman, but he still stammered and refused to agree.

He believed in Xue Mei, and only Xue Mei would not cheat him.

Finally, Xue Mei came.

She helped settle the accounts and exchanged for Zahegan to fifty bags of wheat, sixty pieces of coarse cloth, and five kilograms of tea.

When I came to the thorn, I had shackles on my feet; when I went back, I not only took off the shackles, but also brought rich supplies back, and my whole body was filled with joy.

He was sixteen or seventeen years old, and he was only so happy when his son and wife survived.

With these mari and b, there will be fewer tribes who starve to death and freeze to death this year. He will also hide his own privately for his son to ensure that he can survive this winter.

It's so happy to work together.
