If you want to transport food and wages in, even if it is smooth, it will take at least two or three months without any natural disasters or man-made disasters.

Even if we allocate grain and grass nearby, collect grain and grass from Sichuan, Guizhou, Huguang and Jiangxi, and enter Yunnan, especially the places where they are stationed, more remote places like Tengchong, it may take quite a while.

What's more, the more frequent wars and chaos occur in places, the more remote the place is, the more thieves are crowded, and the more fierce the people are. When retreating, they serve the people, and when advance, they are bandits and thieves, which makes people unable to guard against.

Therefore, when wars occur in southwest border areas such as Yunnan, the most effective way to raise food and grass is to collect grain locally and collect it from the local area.

This is why the court turned a blind eye to the looting of officers and soldiers and wantonly plundering local people's food?

This is also the significance of the Duke of Qian guarding Yunnan for generations!

This is also why the emperors of all dynasties gave the Duke of Qian so much power to control the military and political power in Yunnan?

After all, with the existence of the Duke of Qian and having been operating in the local area for many years, it is necessary to say that the money and grain they have reserved are just that the Duke of Qian has a better understanding of the situation in the southwest areas. Once the grain is collected, it can be targeted and more effective.

Having the military and political power in Yunnan and having such money and grain reserves is also the confidence and strength of the Duke of Qian. This is why it can shock the leaders of the tribes in the southwest?

"Okay, Zhaosun, you go back first, think about it carefully for your father, and then decide what to choose in the end."

"Yes, adoptive father, then Zhao Sun has given up."

At night—

One of the remote courtyards in Juxianju is located in one of the many small courtyards. Compared with the other rooms, there are dim candlelight flashing and swaying. More than a dozen figures are reflected on the sandpaper of doors and windows.

There was also a whispering whisper.

"Dear fellow students, we have found out clearly. General Liu said it well. There are indeed many fellow practitioners living in this Juxianju. Every few days, a small trade fair will be held. There are still three days left before the next trade fair."

"Yes, I found out, but if you want to participate in this kind of trade fair, you need a certain qualification. It is not something that anyone who wants to participate. You must have a certain net worth, or have an acquaintance to introduce or lead. Otherwise, it will be difficult to enter the trade fair, let alone buy the magic weapon and other things you want."

"And, I heard that although the scale of the trade fairs here is small, most of them are strong people from the tenth level of Qi training to the thirteenth level of Qi training. There are few foundation-building cultivators, and they have never even appeared. However, the things inside are very practical, including low-level talismans, pills to recover from injuries, and magic weapons. They are very suitable for us Qi training practitioners in this training task."

In the room—

Everyone from Zixiao's team sat in a circle, while Huang Mingyou, Peng Tongwei and Zhang Jingxiu were in the center. Listening to everyone's narration, the news received from all aspects was different, but overall, they were quite calm.

Gradually, as more and more information was collected, the atmosphere became more and more relaxed and pleasant, especially some of them, who could hardly hide their excitement and their desire for those magical instruments, talismans and elixirs.

Intentionally or unintentionally, more and more people's eyes swept towards Zhang Jingxiu, with eager anticipation in his eyes.

After the last person finished speaking, Huang Mingyou, as the captain, pondered for a moment, organized the language well, and looked at Zhang Jingxiu with a earnest gaze, and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Zhang, this matter depends on you."

"What do you think of me?"

Zhang Jingxiu was confused when asked, with a confusion on his head, and a conditioned reflex. When he saw Huang Mingyou laughing without saying anything, he looked at the others again, and seemed to have thought of something, but he said, "Dear fellow students, I can only guarantee that once you encounter a sudden dangerous situation, you can protect yourself without your protection and rescue. As for contributing things like spirit stones to buy some auxiliary magic weapons, talismans and other items, I can't help it."

This time it was Huang Mingyou and others' turn to be confused, looking at Zhang Jingxiu blankly, where are they?

It's just an answer to the question that is not right-

"Well, Junior Brother Zhang, you may have misunderstood Junior Brother Huang's meaning."

As one of the people who presided over the meeting, Peng Tongwei, who was mature and persistent, reacted first and suddenly said something like this. When Zhang Jingxiu looked at him with a look of inquisitiveness, he continued slowly.

"Junior Brother Zhang, Junior Brother Huang means, can you think of ways, find ways, and get a few places to enter the trade fair? After all, you also understand everyone's situation. Many people are going out for the first time to experience such tasks. Not only does they lack experience, but they also lack physical tools and means to save their lives."

"So, for most of the people in Zixiao team, a magic weapon trade fair like this is undoubtedly an opportunity to make up for their shortcomings and improve their strength as much as possible."

"Also, Junior Brother Zhang, the strength of the whole sect has improved, which means that the overall strength of our Zixiao team has improved. When performing the mission, you will be more sure, and you will be safer, right? At least you can get less unnecessary trouble, right?"

I have to say that in terms of dealing with people, Peng Tongwei, as the eldest brother, is not a little better than Huang Mingyou. His words are very skillful and reasonable, not only letting the other party understand it, but also feeling very comfortable.

Unlike Huang Mingyou, I said it directly to you. I won’t say it if I don’t understand it. I will not say it for now, but I will definitely feel awkward in my heart.

At this time, as Peng Tongwei went straight to the point, Zhang Jingxiu had already understood what Huang Mingyou meant, and even more so, why were the gazes around him full of eager anticipation?

Just like watching a stripped yellow girl looking at herself—

The eyes are burning, making people feel panicked and chilly all over!

Almost instantly, facing such a naked gaze, as soon as Peng Tongwei finished speaking, Zhang Jingxiu raised his hand and surrendered without any hesitation, and immediately agreed.

"Okay, I promise everyone, but can you please stop looking at me with this kind of gaze? I have no interest in men, but I don't have that special hobby!"

"hehe...."

The biggest problem was solved, and my nervous mood was naturally greatly relaxed. When I heard some playful words from Zhang Jingxiu, everyone burst into laughter. At this moment, I suddenly realized that Zhang Jingxiu, who was taciturn and silly, was not so rigid, and had a cute side.
