MTL - My Parents Are Omnipotent-Chapter 326 rush to the capital
Whoever earns money can earn money, let Ye Anlan send people over to do business, at least the disabled soldiers of Dingbei Army can be resettled.
Of course, Bai Qingzhi would not distribute all the profitable businesses in the Northern Territory to Ye Anlan. Before Ye Anlan and Xie Yuan, there were also merchants in the Northern Territory who devoted all their wealth to supporting the Dingbei Army against the Hu people.
These people are not as mercenary as ordinary merchants. They don't just think about earning money from the northern border, but every year they make money, they will donate more than half of it to support the soldiers of the Dingbei Army.
Although their wealth is not as powerful as the rebels like Ye and Xie, and the help they can give to the Dingbei Army is very limited, but they have such awareness, Bai Qingzhi will not colden their blood.
He roughly told Ye Anlan about the situation in the northern border, and then listed the businesses that could be divided, and asked Ye Anlan to choose one to do.
However, to his surprise, Ye Anlan didn't choose what he wanted to get from the items he gave.
She rejected Bai Qingzhi's proposal, and did not go into any profitable business in the northern border.
"You should leave these to others." Ye Anlan smiled and pushed the booklet back to Bai Qingzhi, "I have better business."
She asked Bai Qingzhi, "Salt in the northern border is very expensive, right? So are cloth, cotton and average-quality fur."
Bai Qingzhi was stunned, "Miss Ye wants to do salt business with the northern border? Even cloth, cotton, and fur business?"
Ye Anlan nodded, "There are few high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen in the northern border. There is not a big market for luxury goods here. Instead, they are the most basic necessities of life. But anyone who can breathe, no one can avoid worrying about these four things."
The grain production in the northern border is very low now, but this is not because the land in the northern border is not fertile enough.
In Ye Anlan's previous life, before the end of the world, none of the provinces and cities that overlapped with the northern states had such a low grain output.
Ye Anlan doesn't make black-hearted money, so naturally she can't make a lot of money by importing food, but if the price of food is too low, then the little money she earns will most likely not be enough to subsidize her carriage and guard money.
And she also has a wish, that is to let as many people as possible eat and have enough food.
To do this in the ancient times when productivity was low, she could not cherish herself and focus only on developing the farming and breeding industries on her own land.
She briefly shared her experience in farming and breeding with Bai Qingzhi, and then stopped him from taking small notes when the other party was in a hurry to find a pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
"You can send people to Ye's territory to study systematically. In addition to agriculture and breeding, our construction, manufacturing, water conservancy, education, and medical care... also have something to learn from."
Bai Qingzhi nodded repeatedly.
In the past, in order not to be suspected by the Tian family, he did not dare to blatantly reach out to manage the government affairs and people's livelihood in the northern border, but now the situation is completely different from before.
In order to allow the Dingbei Army and the people in the northern border to live together, Bai Qingzhi can't care about other insignificant things now.
Anyway, he has already colluded with the rebel party for military supplies before. Can the royal family and powerful officials let his family go because he continues to avoid suspicion in government affairs and people's livelihood?
Obviously, that is impossible.
Bai Qingzhi, who had risked everything, was not as restrained as before when doing things.
He quickly finalized the list of people who would follow Ye Jiajun back to Ye's territory. Because Ye Anlan was in a hurry to go to the capital, this group of people not only inspected and studied, but also shouldered the important task of negotiating specific cooperation matters with Ye.
As for Ye Anlan, she directly left this matter to Pei Huaiyu and others to take full responsibility.
Under Wen Liuniang's skilful disguise, the huge team that returned to Xie's and Ye's territories did not appear to have changed in any way.
Ye Anlan, Yang Xiaotao, Zheng Fengshou, Wen Liuniang, Li Jing, Changan and others who are most concerned by other forces have all disguised themselves.
The missing Ye's personal guards and Li Jing's bodyguards were filled by reserve soldiers brought by Ye Anlan.
The reserve soldiers of the Ye Family Army who pretended to be civilian husbands before were filled by the entourage of the Dingbei Army.
These people returned to Xie and Ye's territories along the same route, while Ye Anlan and Li Jing disguised themselves as two caravans and a family of northern aborigines traveling with escorts under the cover of the Dingbei Army, maintaining their security. The distance that can echo each other goes straight to the capital.
Ding Beijun and Bai Qingzhi have a special status and reputation, and the customs clearance documents issued by them are more effective than those issued by the imperial court and any rebel army.
Ye Anlan and the others set off from the northern border, and at all the checkpoints they encountered along the way, they did not give the northern army a little favor. The biggest difficulty they encountered was that they were asked to pay tribute several times by the various rebels guarding the city.
Those who dare to do this are basically those who are close to the capital and have someone behind them.
Of course they didn't want to offend Ding Beijun and Bai Qingzhi, but because the other party was out of reach and would not pose any threat to them for a while, these people were reluctant to let go of the three pieces of fat in their mouths.
If it wasn't for the "guards and bodyguards" that Ye Anlan and the others carried with them, they would be extremely difficult to mess with at first sight. If they were really anxious, they would probably snap them in a fit of anger. These people would not just knock It's a fool's errand.
Of course, Ye Anlan who was ripped off did not suffer any losses. Those who dared to ripped her off all "returned" the gold and silver that was ripped off with double the principal and interest that night.
People who don’t know the information will probably think that they are really merchants who do business along the way, and they are the kind of merchants who have made a lot of money.
After driving for a long time, Ye Anlan and the others finally came to the junction of the territory of the rebel Wang family and the old Zhou dynasty.
The Wang family is a rebel force stronger than the Xie family and has a vast territory. Because it borders the counties and counties that the old dynasty Da Zhou can still control, the Wang family has often been sent by the Da Zhou army to conquer these years.
However, the Great Zhou Dynasty, which has rotted to the root, refused to equip the soldiers with complete armor and weapons. Even the original good horses in the army were taken out and replaced with poor horses, and even the most basic three meals a day were only Give the soldiers at the grassroots level mildewed rice bran.
For a team like this, it is useless for gods to parachute to be generals, let alone those in charge of commanding them.
After being defeated by the weak and the strong by the Wang family several times in a row, the royal family and powerful officials of the Great Zhou finally corrected their attitude towards the Wang family.
They no longer regard the Wang family as a vulnerable vagrant bandit, and they no longer think that the Wang family will be completely defeated by them as long as they move their little fingers.
