Chapter 1136 Preparation(1/2)
They started talking about things after three rounds of wine, but at Xu You, they finished a jar of wine, and they only talked halfway through the serious matter.
Seeing that Wu Niu Introduction Fee was so interested, Xu You also became interested.
He patted Wu Niu and said affectionately:
"The leader of the Wuniu, in fact, besides the war horse and the big black cow, you have other ways to get the wool from me."
"And, what else?"
Wu Niu and the translator were both a little confused.
In addition to horses, cattle and sheep, there are only horse manure, cows, and sheep manure. Does the Han man in front of him also need the feces to burn the fire to keep warm?
"There are still people."
Xu You smiled and subconsciously rubbed his hands, "Now we need a lot of labor, uh, labor."
"labor force?"
"Yes." Xu You nodded, "For example, the pasture here needs people to help raise cattle and sheep, the workshop needs handymen, the mine needs miners, and we need a lot of people to work."
The two of them didn't understand what a handyman or miner was, but they still could understand it if they needed to work.
But when Wu Niu saw his eyes lit up:
"Is anyone okay?"
When talking about this, Xu You became much more skilled:
"It depends on which type it is. Our staff are mainly divided into two types."
“Which two?”
"The first type is labor, which is actually like the sheep slaves in your tribe and the slaves you captured. We are just young, strong and young, both men and women, and we don't have to do anything."
Wu Niu nodded: "I understand."
How could you not understand?
In the tribal disputes on the grassland, if any tribe is really annexed by others, the ones who can survive in the end are basically young and strong.
For the winners, the elderly, weak, sick and disabled have no other use except wasting precious food.
Even in many cases, if the tribe of the victor is insufficient for food, even the young and strong men will be killed, leaving only livestock and women.
"A healthy slave, I can give half a war horse a price, ten wool!"
"If you can introduce others to sell slaves, every time they sell me a slave, I can also give you another piece of material for free."
When Wu Niu heard this, his eyes were straightened.
The translator couldn't help swallowing.
Isn't this more profitable than introducing a war horse?
It is difficult to find a war horse on the grassland. Who are the two legs dissatisfied with the ground?
Xu You saw their expressions, smiled with satisfaction, then took a sip of wine and continued:
"Of course, we also know that everyone is on the grassland to survive better."
"So we have prepared a second situation for everyone on the grassland."
"That is, if you can persuade other tribes to come and surrender to us."
As he said that, he stretched out two fingers, "In this case, we will count on everyone's heads, regardless of age."
Wu Niu's eyes became even straighter.
"Can the old man?"
"Yes. As long as someone on the grassland cannot survive, he will come to join us on his own initiative, and he will be counted as inside."
Xu You talked happily: "As long as people who come here are willing to obey the arrangements quietly, whether they are grazing on the grassland or working in the workshop and mine."
"Not only have food and clothing, but also wages, monthly payments! Whether it is to make money or grain, it is easy to say."
"There are such good things?"
Wu Niu thought to himself, if this is the case, then I wouldn’t have surrendered to the Han people directly!
Xu You seemed to know what he was thinking:
"The leader of the Wuniu, this is naturally a good thing for the tribe tribes. But you have to understand that what we want is those who are willing to obey our arrangements peacefully."
"So at that time, the tribes in the tribe will definitely be disbanded."
"We can arrange for those leaders to have food and clothing, but at the same time he will lose the power to issue orders to the tribes."
Wu Niu was stunned and then said another sentence.
The translator translated:
"Then no one would be willing to come and surrender."
Xu You shook his head: "That's not sure."
When they really can't survive, who can make them survive will be the real leader, right?
"The Wuniu leader just needs to spread the news."
Although Wu Niu couldn't understand the reason, this matter did not harm him, so he nodded and agreed.
Maybe if anyone who ate sheep manure would really be willing to bring people over to surrender?
Then he can make a lot of money in vain?
Compared with Wuniu, the translator thinks more.
When buying and selling slaves, do not be the old, weak, sick and disabled, but taking the initiative to surrender can be considered in it.
Even if there is a leader who doesn't want to be a human being, wants to take a loophole and pull his subordinates over to sell people, he will be stuck at the threshold of the elderly, weak, sick and disabled.
Will there be a leader who doesn’t want to be a human being?
Judging from the translator's experience of living on the grassland for so many years, there are no such leaders, but they will definitely not be rare.
So I don’t know whether the Han people set this rule, whether they are experienced or thoughtfully, and can think about this level in advance.
Two days later, the rest of the Wuniu tribe really came to Pingcheng Quochang through the Yamaguchi and began to transport supplies like hills happily.
When entering the mountain pass and preparing to leave Pingcheng, Wu Niu turned around and took a deep look at the new city behind that had not yet been completely built.
During these two days, with the help of Xu You, he roughly visited Pingcheng, and at least he learned about some of the situation.
As Xu You promised, the lives of the Hu people living around Pingcheng are really much better than those on the grassland.
Thinking of this, Wu Niu suddenly said to the translator:
"You said, if we do what Lord Xu has taught, will we no longer have to worry about it?"
When the translator heard this sentence that was insane, he was a little confused.
I heard Wu Niu continue:
"Even if you can't survive on the grassland in the future, you can lead your tribe members to come here to join Lord Xu."
Although you will lose the power of the leader at that time, you will also receive compensation, right?
No wonder!
Wu Niu felt that he finally understood what Lord Xu said, "That's not sure."
After all, when there is no way out, the most important thing is to survive.
It turns out that he had thought of this level for a long time.
After hearing the leader's words, the translator realized that the leader was speechless with such thoughts.
But I remembered the thick exquisite wool materials in Xu You’s hand, countless grains, snow-white salt, and the clear snow-fire...
The translator swallowed:
"My lord is right. This time, we are at least one step faster than others. As long as we can further gain the trust of the Han people in Pingcheng, we will no longer have to worry about the clan members being frozen to death."
Wu Niu laughed: "That's right, so we have to hurry up and take advantage of the news that others have not yet learned, and find a way to persuade other tribes to come to Pingcheng to exchange things."
When Wu Niu's troops gradually disappeared from the mountain pass, two people were standing on the walls of the flat city, watching them leave.
"They are the farthest places this year, and I don't know if they can help us spread the news."
Xu You breathed out a breath and said to a young man beside him.
This young man has a straight figure and is wearing a thick and long military coat.
The coat was not buttoned, and the cold wind blew by, and the corners of the military coat on its calves were lifted from time to time.
He wore cowhide boots, wore trousers unique to the army, and a cowhide belt that was wide on his waist.
If you wear a military cap from later generations on your head, it would be a young and promising warlord leader who made those little Bourgeois who dreamed of returning to Shanghai.
The only drawback is that this young man has a slightly sinister face that makes people dare not get too close to him.
Xu You is older than the other party, but he also dares not look down on this young man.
To be continued...
