668 , The Throne
When Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin came to this small town in the northwest, they did not hide the fact that they were rich at all, and they deliberately showed a very generous look.
When they said they wanted to spend some time to repair, a family even quitted their own family for them, and then the whole family lived at a relative's house, just because this could make a lot of money from Ren Xiaosu.
Seeing that the two of them looked very easy to talk, the neighbors immediately brought food to Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin, and even killed one of their chickens, stewed them and sent them to them.
Ren Xiaosu refused everyone, and then paid at the door, and brought it into the house for Yang Xiaojin to eat.
Not to mention, the local chicken soup in the mountains is indeed fragrant.
After closing the door, Yang Xiaojin said while drinking chicken soup: "Are you planning to tell them that you are very rich, and then you will destroy all the horse bandits here after they do it?"
Ren Xiaosu looked out from the crack in the door. Many refugees from the town outside were quietly talking about it not far from them. He said, "You have seen it too. If there are so many people in them, if we want to kill directly, wouldn't they run away? We won't catch them all over the mountains and fields. Just two people, it would be great if they could catch one fifth."
Yang Xiaojin asked with a smile, "Didn't you agree to claim to be a sibling before? Why did you suddenly change your words?"
"I'm thinking that we are not like brothers and sisters, what if it's said that the brothers and sisters are wrong," Ren Xiaosu muttered.
Yang Xiaojin raised her eyebrows, and according to the implication, she was more like a couple: "I didn't promise you anything."
Ren Xiaosu looked at her: "I've vented my anger on your behalf to Qinghe University. You said that the person you like is not a flower in the greenhouse, so I killed so many bandits, and then said that I'm the person you like."
"Wait," Yang Xiaojin heard about this for the first time. She paused for a long time before saying; "I said it casually, it was clearly me that you liked first."
Ren Xiaosu smiled honestly and said, "Everything is the same."
Yang Xiaojin found that Ren Xiaosu is usually shameless, but he just keeps his mouth and acts as cowardly as ever.
"They don't know what we are doing now, and I'm afraid they won't do it for a while," Ren Xiaosu thought for a while and said, "But I always think this town is a bit strange, and it doesn't look like a bandit."
However, at this moment, a group of people came back outside the town, and all the refugees in the town rushed up: "Leizi, I heard that you took people to the north to do business with the people on the grassland. How about it? Have you gained anything?"
Su Lei smiled and patted the fur he carried on his shoulder: "Look, what is this?"
Some refugees saw the shiny fur and their eyes turned green. Some people wanted to touch it, but Su Lei and others avoided it.
Su Lei laughed and scolded: "This is the goods that the financial owner gave us to credit, and that is the hero on the grassland. If you touch it, you can't afford to pay for it."
Although Ren Xiaosu was closed in the room, he could hear the movement outside clearly: "Prairie? Xiaojin, do you know about the grassland? You have never had any contact with it before."
"The grassland is quite chaotic, and nomadic people are fighting and killing themselves. Occasionally, they will go south to plunder factories or refugees near the 176 barrier, but they rarely come further south," Yang Xiaojin thought for a while and explained: "But the tribes on the grassland have not been to the Central Plains for several years, which almost everyone has forgotten them. Moreover, there are no powerful military armed forces on the grassland, and they should still be in the era of cold weapons. The guns are only in the hands of a few people, so it is not scary."
"Then why didn't the Central Plains fight them down?" Ren Xiaosu asked in confusion. Judging from Yang Xiaojin's words, the combat power of the grassland people seemed to be very weak.
"It's not easy to fight," Yang Xiaojin shook his head: "Not to mention the fact that the environment is not suitable for the local environment and the terrain are not familiar with each other, the main reason is that the cattle, sheep and horses there have evolved very strongly. When they come to the Central Plains, they can still fight, but the people in the Central Plains go to the north and they want to hide, but the consortium cannot catch them at all. Unless there is a consortium willing to fight with them, otherwise this is a thankless thing."
Ren Xiaosu understood that on the one hand, because the nomadic peoples have strong mobility, the armored traveling army in the Central Plains has only an average of 60 kilometers per hour when they are dead. However, the nomadic people have exploded in minutes, so it is still easy to run.
On the other hand, there are no resources on the grassland, and the biggest resource is beef and mutton. Since there is no big threat on the grassland, there is no need for everyone to mobilize their troops to target the northern grasslands. It would be not good if other consortiums take advantage of the situation.
"However," Yang Xiaojin changed his tone: "The Central Plains has been restricting orders to sanctions on the north, and prohibiting everyone from selling arms to the north, so as to avoid any new problems."
Ren Xiaosu asked in confusion: "I understand this, but they don't have tanks and armored vehicles. If they give them guns, they can't make any trouble. Don't they say that the age of firearms is the end of cavalry?"
"No, this is a misunderstanding of many people," Yang Xiaojin explained: "In fact, in human history, among the top ten powerful empires, a small part of the cavalry empires in the Firearm Age. They dragged artillery to capture cities and land, and the enemy had no way to do anything. Later, the cavalry was eliminated because the mobility of horses was compared by modern technology, but if the horses also evolved, no one knew what the result would be before they were beaten."
As Yang Xiaojin said, if the grassland people now have hot weapons, they are not sure whether they can fight anyone, so there is no need to continue discussing.
I heard someone outside say, "Lei Zi, the goods you bought before are sold out, do you seem to have sold them?"
Su Lei smiled and said, "That's of course, and the hero on the grassland is very grand."
"So that's the case, you can take everyone to make money," a sharp voice shouted: "It's not easy to be a bandit, so why not follow you Su Lei to do business."
But Su Lei smiled and said, "Li Mazi, what did you say when you asked you to join the gang before? Didn't you say that doing business with the grassland people is unreliable? You also said that they have no money and are savage. Now, it's a bit too late to join the gang?"
"Lei Zi, you can't say that. We all grew up in the same town. Wouldn't you just give everyone a hand?"
Su Lei replied calmly: "No."
Finally, there was a good way out, and Su Lei did not allow anyone in the town to ruin his business.
