Chapter 237 is playing silver

In Gubei Village, the lights were brightly lit, and in the Sihai Warehouse, the two gangsters who had sutured the wounds to the last batch of wounded soldiers were so tired that they sat on the ground. They thought they didn't know what evil they had committed, so they were caught in the Hekou Fort to study medicine, and asked them to be a veterinarian who treats animals in the future.

Dr. Liu, who taught them to sew threads with knives, looked young and had extremely superb medical skills. They learned carefully later. After all, no one wanted to continue to be a wandering doctor who traveled from village to village, and he was deceived.

"Thank you for helping you two doctors."

Just as the two were thinking about how to escape in the future, a circle of wounded soldiers saluted them, which immediately made them come to their senses. Looking at the sincere gratitude on the young faces, the two old fried dough sticks had some different emotions in the center. They had been walking in the world for so many years, but they were still treated with this kind of enthusiasm.

"Everyone, you are polite. This is the duty of our doctors. Everyone lie down and rest well, don't collapse the wound."

Liu Suifeng, not far away, looked at the two gangsters and could not help but nodded. These two gangsters were wandering doctors walking around the countryside under Shenmu County. Although they also cured diseases and saved people, they were not much different from gangsters. After Yang Dayan arrested them, the two of them had many bad ideas to escape, but after being caught and beaten a few times, they became honest.

Liu Suifeng was not very fond of these two gangsters with some incorrect minds, but the Gao Baihu said that he was not ignorant of his mind, and it was somewhat reasonable to listen to it. So he patiently taught them some medical skills. As a result, he found that these two people were really learning about medical skills, which made him feel a little better.

This time, Gubei Village was going to fight. After Madam Mulan returned to Hekou Fort, she brought them all with her, saying that she could fight him and help him treat the wounded. Although Liu Suifeng agreed, she didn't expect anything. But she didn't expect that these two people would really help. At least those not too serious knife wounds and lacerations were handled well.

"You have done a good job this time. I will discuss with Gao Baihu to let you stay in the clinic."

"Thank you, Dr. Liu."

When the two doctors in the martial arts world saw Liu Suifeng coming, they were overjoyed and could stay in Hekou Castle to continue to study medicine and become a serious doctor. They did not want to escape. After all, although the Gaobaihu heard the famous one, the place in Hekou Castle was the most peaceful place they had seen in recent years.

"Doctor Liu, how are the situations of these wounded soldiers?"

"Don't worry, eldest lady, except for a dozen people who have injured their hands and feet, nothing else is wrong. As long as you have a good rest, you will be fine."

Liu Suifeng had seen wars when he was young. The thing he had most effort was to amputate more than ten injured soldiers. Fortunately, the eldest lady was well prepared and prepared all kinds of injuries and anesthetics. However, no one was in pain because he couldn't stand the pain.

"Thank you, Dr. Liu."

"You are polite, my elder sister, this is Liu's duty."

Liu Suifeng really didn't think he had made much effort this time. The Gao Baihuo had already written the nursing methods in the wounded barracks, and asked the eldest lady to form a female medical staff. The cloth strips cooked with boiled water, alcohol for disinfection, etc., all of which opened his eyes and were deeply inspired.

While talking, outside the Sihai Freight Barrier, a friend's shout suddenly sounded, "Grandpa is back, all the thieves have been caught!"

At the gate of Nancheng, when Gao Jin came back, the entire Gubei Village was cheering. Everyone knew that after winning the battle, the 1,500 thieves were wiped out in half a day, so no one had to live a life of worry.

Fortunately, the city of Gubeizhai is big enough. The abandoned houses and captured tents are enough to allow the prisoners to live in.

In the light of the fire, the prisoners from thieves and bandits cleaned up dilapidated abandoned houses and houses, and no one wanted to escape. They just wanted to clean up the place and then have a good sleep.

The captives were divided into different areas, and the soldiers of the Camel City were next to the bandits, and the servants of the generals were arranged in a dilapidated house near the Sihai Goods Store. However, no matter how dilapidated it was, it could still block the wind and snow. In addition, the coal stove was well-bred, which was warmer than the tents they had when they marched.

The news that Gao Yanluo allowed the families to pay ransom and save themselves. Sha Dediao had already told the seven servants that no one had any objections, and even breathed a sigh of relief. It was better to have money than to die. As for whether the master family was willing to pay the money, they knew in their hearts that as long as Gao Yanluo didn't speak loudly, the family was willing to pay for them to redeem them.

You should know that it is not easy to train heavy armored cavalry like them. The master has already spent a lot of money, so it would be fine if he died in battle. Since he is alive, he is naturally willing to pay some money to redeem them. This is more cost-effective and time-saving than spending a lot of money to cultivate new ones.

"You guys tell me first, how much money can your families pay?"

Sha Dediao looked at the heads of the family and said that on the way back, he went to get close to Gao Yanluo's companions, and finally found out that the person in charge of the money in the Hekou Fort was the Madam Mulan. He heard that he was a very difficult master to deal with.

A few servants looked at me and I looked at you, but no one spoke first. To be honest, they were captured alive again. They were unsure of how much money the master was willing to pay.

"You guys just quote a price, so I can bargain, right?"

Sha Dediao became anxious. The ransom is not a trivial matter. If the two sides cannot reach an agreement, or if they have reported the number here and don’t recognize it in Camel City, it would be a waste of work.

"I guess our master will pay at most fifty taels, and there will be no more."

In the end, Commander Jiang said, "A heavy armored cavalry is worth fifty taels of silver, so you know that the full war armor costs about the same price. No matter how hard they do, they can't be worse than the animals!"

"Yes, fifty taels, not more."

With this price, the other heads of the family also shouted that if they went higher, the master might not be willing to redeem people. Everyone knew that Gao Yanluo would never return their war armor and weapons. When they returned to Camel City, the master would have to buy them another one, and the in and out of the house would be a hundred taels of silver.

"Okay, I understand, then we'll kill fifty taels, not more."

Sha Dedia nodded, just have a number, so he knew how to bargain. If he was Gao Yanluo, the ransom would definitely not be reduced. The Madam Mulan heard that she was a more greedy person, so he had to cheer up and deal with it.

In the Sihai Warehouse, Gao Jin first visited a circle of wounded soldiers, especially the eight young and old soldiers who had broken hands and feet and could no longer go into battle. He made a promise that as long as they were willing, the Sihai Warehouse and Hekou Fort would leave them a position in charge. As long as they worked hard, it would be fine to support the whole family.

When the war ended, casualties were inevitable. The backyard of the Sihai Cargo Store was the place where the soul stopped. This time, nearly 40 people died under Gao Jin, most of whom were young and strong from Gubeizhai and Hekou Fort, and more than ten people died in the servants and the sword and shield team.

"Manager Hou, this pension must be implemented as soon as possible. Is the money in the warehouse enough now?"

"Grandmaster, there is not much money left in the warehouse, but there is no shortage of supplies. I think it's better to send the real thing directly."

Hou San said from the side that he knew that Gao Ye had said that those who died in battle would be given 20 taels of silver, and his relatives and family members could receive a monthly silver until their children could support themselves. There were fifteen young and strong people who died in battle in Gubei Village. This was the expense of 300 taels of silver. In addition, those who were alive would also have to be awarded silver. The remaining silver in the warehouse was not enough to pay at all.

Gao Jin frowned. The reason why he insisted on issuing silver was that he hoped that the people under his rule would be accustomed to using silver and money to circulation. Besides, the Sihai Goods Store controlled the distribution of materials in the entire Gubei Village. If the pension silver was continued, it would eventually be circulated back to their hands. However, for those young and strong families who died in battle, getting pension silver and physical goods was different.

"First give the pension silver, and then talk about other rewards."

"Yes, Grandpa."

Hou San nodded. Since the Grand Master made the decision, he could only bring out all the remaining money in the warehouse.

When he returned to the second floor of the Sihai Goods Store, Gao Jin finally met Mulan, but at this time Mulan was asking Zhang Jian for advice on what the market is for the heavy armored cavalry in Camel City.

Since he had invested in Gao Jin, Zhang Jian had no other thoughts, not to mention that he knew that the Mulan lady wanted to talk to Sha Dediao about the amount of ransom. With the intention of making things difficult for the bastards, he knew everything and almost explained everything about the servants in the general's sect clearly.

"Master, all the servants of the generals are fat sheep, so the ransom cannot be lowered."

"That's right, don't I leave the bargaining matter to you!"

Looking at Mulan, who seemed to be shining in her eyes, Gao Jin laughed dryly. Mulan would definitely be much better than him to talk about it himself.

"Brother Gao, aren't you afraid of offending that eldest son when you do this?"

Fan Xiu'an spoke upside him. Now Gao Jin is regarded as his real person. After all, this time the Fan family caravan helped to send weapons and a large number of supplies to Gubeizhai, not to mention that Fan Xiu'an also brought all the two hundred horse teams under him. Although he did not go into battle, he was used to force the surrendered generals and the soldiers of the camp. Therefore, Gao Jin did not hide some things from Fan Xiu'an, and even asked Fan Xiu'an to help him come up with an idea.

"Brother Fan, what do I think I should do?"

Du Hongyu only gave one hundred households an armour, but after the battle, Gao Jinhua had to spend at least three to four thousand taels of silver. Those who were injured and injured had to be compensated, and those who were alive had to be rewarded. Otherwise, who would be willing to fight to the death next time he encountered a war?

Gao Jin didn't think Du Hongyu would be willing to take out this money. If he didn't make up for it from those who were in charge of it, he would become a pauper.

"It's a matter of asking for a ransom, but Brother Gao might as well say hello to the eldest son first."

Fan Xiu'an is a businessman. He has always been versatile in his work and does not offend people easily. To put it bluntly, Gao Jin is to be the lonely minister of his Du family. There is no possibility of reconciliation with those generals in the Camel City. It is not that Gao Jin must kill the people completely.

"Then let me listen to Brother Fan."
