Sun Wulang and Qingtou squatted under the tree, holding a few cicadas and insects and having fun. When they turned around, they saw Yang Shen leading a few soldiers and driving dozens of sheep in. They got up together and ran over.

Sun Wulang looked around the sheep and said to Yang Shen: "Uncle, why are there so many sheep?"

Yang Shen said: "The Jin people have been away for several months. The people in the nearby mountains drove the sheep into Luoyang City to sell. I happened to meet them and bought theirs. The little sheep and Dong Xian agreed that we can set up stalls in the prosperous city and make some money. Without sheep, how can we do business?"

Wang Xiaoli was reading documents under the shade of the tree. When he heard the movement, he also came over to watch.

After ceremonials, Yang Shen said: "Xiaosheren, I am really lucky today. I bought thirty-eight sheep. With these sheep, we can make some food and sell it in the city. We have to work hard and make some money at least."

Wang Xiaolei said: "Now everything is so expensive, how much does it cost to buy a sheep?"

Yang Shen said: "A 10 jin of money is much cheaper than Kaifeng's price! I have inquired about it. Now, one jin of mutton is on the market, and the meat can make the price of sheep back. Let's buy some mutton soup, braised mutton miscellaneous things, which is purely profitable!"

Wang Xiaoli was stunned for a while before saying, "Then these sheep are about to be nearly 400 jin? Your courage is a little bigger."

Yang Shen said: "The farmer was afraid that it would be difficult to sell, so he didn't want to delay it, so he only collected 350 stagnants. We raised these sheep and sold one or two of them every day, which was a long-term business. In addition, selling mutton soup every day and other foods should be of great interest!"

Wang Xiaolie lowered his head and calculated for a while, nodded and said yes. He just spent hundreds of guan at once, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared. Wang Xiaolie's army did not rob, and there were fewer ways to get money. A few hundred guan was a lot of money. If the business was lost, there would be no cash left in the army. Fortunately, Luoyang was surrounded by mountainous areas, and it was used to raising sheep. The mountainous areas were not damaged by the Jin army, and the recovery was much faster than Kaifeng.

Yang Shen did not notice the change in Wang Xiaoli's expression, but said, "Luoyang is a big city after all. At this time, there are still noodles in the city. I guess we will buy some white noodles and make more food. When it is put out tomorrow, it will definitely be very popular."

Wang Xiaolei said: "Is there any money in the army? The face is not cheap."

Yang Shen said: "There are still some. But if you spend it today, you won't make it back tomorrow, but it's not good."

In this era, noodle was a high-end food, which was different from later generations. It was not easy to grind noodles at this time, and wheat yield was also low. It was not that it was difficult to eat white noodles in cities. Wang Xiaoli's previous life, pasta was the most common food, just like rice, but this era was not. Although historical research has proven that most of the pasta in later generations have existed in this era, in fact, it is only in its prototype. Not to mention craftsmanship, even varieties cannot be compared with the dazzling array of products in later generations. In some remote places, such as Korea and Japan, food has always been a luxury in history. Even in the era of great material richness, they used to use dumplings and noodles to serve.

The same is true in the Central Plains at this time. Although Wang Xiaoli's previous life said that he would not be full if he had no steamed buns, and he could not live without noodles and steamed buns for three meals a day. In fact, this habit was formed for a very short time. White flour became the staple food of northerners, and it was not very long.

At this time, it is rare to sell white flour in Luoyang, and the price is definitely not cheap. Yang Shen really dares to spend it.

Seeing Wang Xiaoli hesitant, Yang Shen understood and smiled and said, "Little Sergeant, you don't have to worry. Although Luoyang City is dilapidated, there are still many rich families. As long as we cook good food, we are afraid that we can't sell it?"

Wang Xiaolie couldn't say anything, so he just nodded and said, "You are right, and you are right. Just do that. Get ready soon today."

Watching Wang Xiaolien leave, Sun Wulang said, "Uncle, look at the little sergeant, I can't trust you."

Yang Shen said: "You are a child, what do you know! As long as you make money, the little servant will be happy!"

After saying that, he ordered the soldiers to drive the sheep into the wing. Choose a fat one and slaughter it tonight and give wine to Wang Xiao hunting several people. The rest of the sheep bones, sheep miscellaneous, sheep blood, etc. must be handled in advance and will be sold tomorrow.

In the past few months, due to the lack of money and food in the army, Wang Xiaolie has made a lot of delicious food in his past life according to his memory to satisfy his cravings. Yang Shen and several chefs have learned it and have always wanted to have the opportunity to show his skills. Since Wang Xiaolie has agreed with Dong Xian, he will naturally not miss the opportunity.

It was getting dark and the army lit a torch, and Yang Shen led his soldiers to work there. While setting up a table, Wang Xiaoli and Jie Linong sat and drank. There was a plate of mutton on the table and a few fruits and vegetables to drink.

As the main general, Wang Xiaoli should pay special attention. He can occasionally improve fire food, but in most cases, what he eats is the same as most people in the army. You must first correct yourself and strictly demand yourself before you can strictly demand the soldiers in the army.

Zhang Jun rolled up his sleeves and took a knife to deal with the sheep's head. This thing was done well, and it was no worse than the lamb. Some of the soldiers were dealing with bones, some were kneading dough, and some were grinding tofu on the side. Commander Yang Shen was very busy.

After drinking a bowl of wine, Jie Linong said: "Xiaosheren, the most important thing in the army is to train and fight, and nothing else matters. Now the army lacks money and food, so it is natural that it is understandable to do some business and make money, but Xiaosheren does not have to worry about it."

Wang Xiaolei said: "That's not the case. What kind of war is needed in the army? It depends on the soldiers. If they want to fight to the death, they must first have enough food and clothing. Only when life is good and comfortable can they be unavoidable. At this time, whether it is training or combat, they can achieve twice the result with half the effort. The first thing we lead the troops is to care about whether the soldiers eat well, whether they wear warm clothes, and then they will say anything else."

Xie Linong said: "Xiaosheren said it well. However, as long as people arrange to take care of such things, why should the generals in the army worry? I don't know how many major issues, but the generals have no energy to focus on these things!"

Looking at the busy people, Wang Xiaoli shook his head: "That's not what he said. People who often say good soldiers love soldiers like their children. Do you think this is just to keep an eye on the soldiers under him, whether they eat well, sleep well, and live well. When they are all relieved, the combat effectiveness of the army will increase. You will gradually understand this principle."

Xie Linong shook his head, obviously disagreed.

Wang Xiaoli didn't say much. Many things take time, but the time is still too short now. In the past two months, everyone has not settled down for a long time, and they have less time to start training, and they have to slowly get started.

Sun Wulang and Qingtou were wandering under the surrounding trees with the light of the torch. Since that day, Wang Xiao hunted and fried the cicadas, which has become a delicacy in the army. Especially Sun Wulang and Qingtou, they went everywhere to find it without any trouble. However, this thing came out at night, and there was no flashlight in this era, so it was not easy to catch it.

The two of them had a dozen, and held them in their hands to Yang Shen. Sun Wulang said, "Uncle, please let the people who burn the fire there help us cook these, okay? This thing is the most delicious and beautiful!"

Everyone was busy at this time, and Yang Shenzheng wanted to divide it into two to use it. However, the two children were well-behaved and he couldn't refuse, so he asked the person who was burning the fire to put the cicada into the fire and cook them.

Soon, the golden cicada was pulled out of the fire, and most of them were burnt. Sun Wulang and Qingtou didn't care and took the skin with their hands to eat. In a moment, their hands and mouths were already black.

After eating, Sun Wulang wiped his mouth and asked Yang Shen: "Uncle, why is there a large piece of white flour over there? "

Yang Shen said: "That's called wake-up noodles. These doughs will be of great use tomorrow! One ball of buns over there is a bun, and the other large ball of fried dough sticks are all very fragrant and beautiful! It is served with tofu brain ground on the other side, which is really a delicious food I have never eaten before!"

These two things were not made in the army before, but they only tried them twice, and neither Sun Wulang nor Qingtou had any good food. After hearing this, he couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Sun Wulang said, "When it's done, can we eat a few bites?"

Yang Shen said: "As long as you can get up, we will go to the city to sell goods before dawn tomorrow, but we will not be able to delay!"

Sun Wulang said: "In summer, you can get up naturally! Uncle, call me when you are leaving."

Yang Shen agreed and touched Sun Wulang's head with his hand. Selling breakfast is a hard work. I can only squint for a while tonight. The stall had to be set up before the city gate was opened. Nowadays, people get up early, and there are many pedestrians on the road before dawn.
