Liu Feng just asked the questions he was concerned about, while Xu Tian thought that this was an assessment of Liu Feng's position as an aide. He was naturally solemn in his heart.

However, he went to Hanzhong two years ago and lived for several months. But after all, some things have changed over time.

For example, let’s talk about war horses. As an official who manages baggage, Xu Tian is Xu Zheng’s younger brother, of course he knows that Jingzhou is currently short of horses. Not to mention Jingzhou, there are few horses in the south of the Yangtze River.

Nowadays, war horses can only flow from Liangzhou to Hanzhong, and then reach Jingzhou, Yizhou and Jiangdong.

This involves countless interests, and horse dealers account for the second place, while the one who takes the majority was Zhang Lu, the prefect of Hanzhong. With this trade route, Zhang Lu made a lot of money.

Zhang Lu had a grudge against Liu Zhang, Yizhou, and war horses could hardly flow to Yizhou. Therefore, war horses were the most expensive in Yizhou. The second was Jiangdong, because war horses were often bought by Jingzhou Liu Biao when they passed by Jingzhou. Few people could sell horses to Jiangdong through Jingzhou.

Therefore, the war horses in Jingzhou are the cheapest among the three southern regions.

But the cheaper is only relative. Two years ago, each war horse required six gold, but now in Xiangyang, it has been sold for ten gold.

After pondering for a moment, Xu Tian sorted out what he knew and told Liu Feng.

Of course, Liu Feng felt disappointed. He now had a huge sum of one thousand gold and was ambitious to buy hundreds of horses to stock up, but he didn't expect that he could only buy one hundred war horses with a thousand gold.

Thinking of this, it is completely unrealistic to spend all the gold to buy a war horse.

One thousand gold must be turned into ten thousand gold, one hundred thousand gold.

Although Xu Tian next to him was the younger brother of a logistics officer, Liu Feng did not expect him to help achieve this feat of increasing his property tenfold.

If I had this ability, I would have been looking for other ways long ago and would not seek refuge with him.

If you insist on handing over impossible tasks to him, it is a embarrassment to him. It is a taboo to rule his subordinates.

In the past three years, Liu Feng studied Han Feizi, Zuo Zhuan, Liu Tao, etc. for no reason.

"You should be in charge of finance in the future." It was also considered that he had some understanding of Xu Tian's talent. Considering that he was Xu Zheng's younger brother, in charge of money was a family tradition. Liu Feng told Xu Tian.

"Don't let the Major General down." Xu Tian was shocked and immediately raised his fist.

"Yes." Liu Feng nodded, no longer talking to Xu Tian, ​​but looked up at the West.

To make money and buy horses, you need to take it slowly, so let it be aside. Now recruiting troops is the top priority. This time, going west is the direction that Liu Feng specially chose.

Liu Fengke has never forgotten that there is a small famous general in Dengjia Village.

It has been three years since Gan's warning. Liu Feng had never contacted Deng Ai, but the bamboo slips and meat were personally investigated by Gan himself for a while and sent someone to send him there.

After not seeing each other for three years, the boy should be full of talent and has been eating meat all year round, so he looks very tough. Although he is only about ten years old.

Liu Feng was extremely looking forward to Deng Ai.

It doesn’t matter if you are younger, as long as you have a good mind. Children in this era are in charge of their families at a very young age. There are so many people who get married at the age of thirteen, and they can still bear half of the sky at the age of ten.

With this extremely strong expectation, Liu Feng and others walked fifty miles outside Dengjia Village.

It is no different from the memory of three years ago. This area is full of two days, and the people live a life of farming at sunrise and returning at sunset.

"Major General, there are 130 families in Deng Village and 235 strong men. If they can go smoothly, they may recruit more than ten soldiers." Zhang Dao said softly. He knew today's destination, and of course he had studied it carefully.

"Set up a camp here, and you can handle the next thing yourself. I'll go to the village first." Recruiting soldiers is of course important, but for Liu Feng, Deng Ai is more important, let alone someone under him, so there is no need to do it yourself. Liu Feng ordered Zhang Dao and immediately rode his horse towards the village.

Riding on the dark cloud horse, he walked slowly for a while. Liu Feng found the yard in his memory.

Three years ago, the rich family was mottled, but three years later, it was still ragged.

After smiling, Liu Feng stepped forward and knocked on the door three times, then quietly waited for the master to come out and open the door.

Not long after, a beautiful woman opened the door from inside. She had fair skin and a straight face. She had a hint of weakness all over her body.

"I haven't seen you for three years, how about you?" Liu Feng smiled and raised his fist to Deng.

Looking at the Liu Feng in front of me, who looked very similar to the one I remember, but did not seem to be the same person, Deng Shi was a little dazed and took a closer look, then she realized that the person she remembered had grown up.

I was just a teenager back then, but now I am a young man.

Looking back at that time, this person changed the fate of their mother and son. Since then, Deng Ai has studied daily and has meat to eat. Because he is healthy, he can help nearby families herd cattle to supplement their household income.

The lives of their mother and son are getting better and better day by day.

After a moment of trance, Deng showed a happy smile, bent over and saluted, "So it's the Major General."

"Madam, please get up." Liu Feng said with a smile with a smile.

Deng raised his waist as he spoke, looked at Liu Feng, and smiled apologetically, "I haven't seen you for three years, and the major general is very different from the past, so the little woman was stunned for a moment. Please don't blame the major general."

"It was the fifteenth year and the eighteenth year. It was the time to grow up. It was normal for the wife to not recognize her for a while, so why would I be surprised?" Liu Feng naturally would not blame Deng for some trivial matters.

As he said that, Liu Feng looked into the yard and asked anxiously: "Where is Deng Ai?"

"He is grazing cattle for other people's houses outside and will not come back until noon. The major general comes in first." Deng shook his head and said, then invited.

Liu Feng smiled awkwardly when he heard this, and was in a hurry. He forgot about Deng Ai's attempt to herd cattle.

Although I haven't seen Deng Ai and his son in recent years, Liu Feng has paid a lot of attention to them. He knows their family background and knows that Deng Ai is herding cattle for life.

Liu Feng not only did not stop this matter, but was happy.

The so-called poverty produces great talents. Deng Ai, in history, once let people go cattle, planted fields, worked as a minor official, and a minor official. He has not been used for more than ten years.

It is those years that have tempered Deng Ai's character and made his character extremely tenacious.

Therefore, Deng Ai's grazing cattle for people, and suffering is not a bad thing but a good thing.

"I'm nagging about my wife." Liu Feng smiled and raised his fist.

"How can you say that you are nagging when you are here? Please ask the Major General." Deng smiled slightly, missed his body and gave up his way to let Liu Feng enter.
