There is also a gold-selling cave in Guiyang Prefecture.

Huajianlou is the most famous one.

Jiang Jinjiu, a businessman from Liangzhe Road, has a unique vision. When everyone thought that the newly emerging Guiyang Prefecture could only be regarded as a poor place, and opening a gold sales cave of this size would inevitably end up with no underwear, he

But they invested heavily here.

Not to mention ordinary oirans, there are also Yangzhou Shouma, and there are several of them in this Huajianlou. And each one is good at different things, some are good at dancing, some are good at music, and some are good at poetry and songs.

Something that can make men shy away.

These people are worth a lot of money. If you don't have dozens of dollars to meet them once, you can't even think about it.

If you want to stay overnight, it's not enough just to have money, you have to be willing.

As soon as Huajianlou opened, it was immediately crowded with people.

People who think Guizhou’s roads are poor are dumbfounded.

But Jiang Jinjiu made a lot of money.

There are so many big dog owners on the roads of Guizhou.

These people are basically the tribal leaders who used to occupy one party. As long as they are quick to seize the opportunity, they can basically protect themselves and their property. The accumulation of several generations or even more than ten generations has allowed them to

Has countless wealth.

Moreover, they also took the express train of the Federation.

Because many people believed in Xiao Cheng or admired Xiao Cheng, they invested part of their property in some of the Federation's businesses. They paid no attention to anything but paid dividends. After a year, they made a lot of money.

If you have more money, you will naturally have to spend it.

Places like Huajianlou are their biggest gold sales cave.

Here, jaw-dropping scenes of rich fights often occur.

Of course, it’s only limited to here.

Xiao Cheng was happy to let these guys spend their money here, since he imposed heavy taxes on places like Huajianlou anyway.

The more you spend, the more Huajianlou earns, and the more the government gets.

The big business owners have gained face, the government has benefited, and Huajianlou has gained a reputation, which has also indirectly promoted the development of the local economy. Everyone gets what he deserves.

Marshall pushed open the door and went out, stood on the edge of the railing, stretched, and looked back at the room. The red sand tent was full of spring, and he couldn't help but smile.

What kind of showmanship does not sell oneself?

It's just that the money is not available.

Huajianlou, the top banker, was captured by him yesterday, but it only cost him 10,000 yuan.

Ten thousand guan, for ordinary people, they would not be able to earn that much in their lifetime.

For Marshall, it was a huge sum of money a few years ago. If he was asked to pay for a prostitute, he would definitely not do it. With this money, he would rather build a few more pairs of armor, some swords, guns, and some crossbows.

, after all, life is more valuable than enjoyment.

But now, ten thousand yuan is just a small amount of money to him.

In the past three years, Mahubu has made a lot of money by raising large livestock.

Cattle, horses, donkeys, mules, etc., the Mahu tribe who are not good at farming but good at breeding, sell their cattle and horses to Guizhou Road, basically selling as much as they have.

Especially horses that can be used as war horses, the price has always been high.

The war horses produced in Xuzhou look unattractive. Compared with the tall horses in the north, they are not worth mentioning. They are probably a bit smaller. However, this kind of horse has an advantage that the horses in the north cannot compare with, and that is its amazing endurance.

.

Northern horses are suitable for sprinting over short distances, while Xuzhou horses are best suited for long-distance running.

More importantly, Xuzhou Jingcao horses are not like northern horses, which are a bit too delicate.

A war horse is now sold for hundreds of dollars in Guiyang.

And it was only this year that it started to be sold on the market. In the past, it was always controlled by the government.

The six forbidden armies on the Guizhou Road need a large number of war horses, because according to the wishes of the pacifier Xiao Cheng and Xiao Futai, each cavalry in the army must have at least two war horses.

Once this requirement came out, the cavalry of the six armies combined would need at least tens of thousands of horses to meet the requirement.

Although it was a collective purchase, it was still the Mahu Department and the Nanguang Department that made a fortune.

Especially the clan leaders of the two clans made a lot of money.

Because all war horse transactions are controlled by them.

Ma Xie is now completely devoted to Xiao Cheng.

With Xiao Cheng's current strength, he would have forced the Mahu Department to pay tribute to war horses to Guizhou Road every year, but he would never have dared to say a word and would have just offered the horses obediently.

After witnessing Luo Piao's demise and Wu Dabang's death in battle, Marshall already suffered from Guizhou Road phobia.

Sheng Lu from the Nanguang Department is similar to him.

These two are already prepared for heavy bleeding.

Unexpectedly, what they were waiting for was a fair deal.

This is very surprising.

In the past three years, everyone in Xuzhou has been focused on the breeding industry. Except for the prominent figures like them who have made countless money, the ordinary clan members are now relatively wealthy.

The thatched houses of the past have been replaced by blue brick houses, and the tattered clothes of the past have long disappeared. During the holidays, people can still wear their treasured silks to show off. As long as this continues for a few more years, every family will

It is not a dream to wear silk every day.

After walking down the stairs and coming to the courtyard, he saw many people coming out of another building one after another. These were the guards who had followed him to Guiyang this time. To these people, he had always been

Very generous.

Not counting his expenses last night, his guards together spent thousands of dollars.

This time Ma Xie came to Guiyang Mansion in response to Xiao Cheng's invitation.

Generally speaking, Marshall was actually mentally prepared for it.

Xuzhou has been separated from Guizhou for three full years. This situation will definitely not last forever. This time, I am afraid that they will be officially taken back.

Before this, Marshall had also communicated with Sheng Lu of the Nanguang Department. Now both parties no longer have any objections to Ren Bao's complete submission to Guizhou Road, including their ethnic groups, who have also gone from the initial resistance to the current

Can't wait.

There is always a comparison in everything. Compared with Dong Kui of Yi Niangbu who fled to Weining, they can be considered extremely lucky.

In the great battle three years ago, almost all the Shimen tribe was wiped out. In the end, only Dong Kui of the Yi Niang tribe fled to Weining. After receiving the support of Liupanshui Gao Yingxiang tribe, he gained a firm foothold, but the Guizhou Forbidden Army did not

Attack them again.

Dong Kui aggressively recruited the dispersed tribesmen of the Shimen tribe, and his strength grew rapidly for a while. He led his troops to counterattack many times. However, after being attacked head-on by the Guizhou Forbidden Army time and time again, they finally stopped and switched from attacking to attacking.

Defense.

But unlike Mahu and Nanguang, who lived a comfortable life, Dong Kui's life in Weining was extremely miserable.

Gao Yingxiang just regarded him as a barrier. When Dong Kui desperately launched an attack on Guizhou Road, he gave him whatever he asked. Once Dong Kui was unable to reach him, Gao Yingxiang immediately changed his face.

Dong Kui's treatment was like playing with lanterns for fifteen miles, which was getting worse every day.

Nowadays, many ethnic groups can hardly even guarantee food and clothing.

Weining has too many tribesmen from the Shimen tribe, but there are more than a dozen different tribes under the Shimen tribe. At the beginning, everyone was able to work together in the same boat, but now, in order to compete for the few resources,

They are already fighting endlessly among themselves.

As the new leader of the Shimen tribe, Dong Kui cannot make a living without rice, so it would be great if he can ensure that his tribe does not go hungry.

Dong Kui naturally knew that continuing like this was not an option, and asked Gao Yingxiang for help many times, but now Gao Yingxiang was also in trouble.

The situation in Dali is getting worse and worse.

The anti-high voices are getting louder and louder, and riots have broken out in many places. Behind these riots, more or less the powerful figures in Dali can be seen, and in some cases, the shadow of the royal family can even be seen.

The rebellion dealt a heavy blow to the domestic economy. Gao Yingde was so busy that he had to quell the rebellion, restore the economy, suppress political opponents, and suppress the royal family. He was so busy that he could hardly breathe.

If three years ago, Gao Yingde still had the courage to fight Xiao Cheng on the road to Guizhou, but now, he just begged Xiao Cheng not to fight him.

To this end, Gao Yingde also put in a lot of effort.

Not only did he send envoys to make friends with Xiao Cheng, but he also sent many envoys to Bianliang. They tried their best to flatter him and made the officials in Bianliang City smile with joy.

Of course, what Gao Yingde wanted was just one thing, and that was that Dali and Song Dynasty should always be good neighbors and friends and help each other.

This is what he thought.

But Xiao Cheng didn't think so.

In Xiao Cheng's opinion, this fruit, which has been cultivated for several years, is finally ripe and ready to be picked.

As for the interactions between the officials in Bianliang City and Dali, and those declarations, what binding force did they have on Xiao Cheng?

Just find any excuse and start a war.
