Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

C337 Long Journey



C337 Long Journey

Not even waiting for the two of them to bid.    

    

On the contrary, it was Xiao Yun who bid first!    

    

Moreover, this price was the kind that they were unable to refuse.    

    

They originally wanted an armor, but when they saw this long saber, they only wanted one.    

    

Even if they saw this meat patty, they still felt that as long as they could obtain the right to purchase it from the Xiao family's restaurant, it would be enough.    

    

But they never thought...    

    

Xiao Yun had given them such a huge number!    

    

Just how much did he need to pay for it?    

    

The two generals could not think of anything.    

    

Xiao Yun looked at them, speechless.    

    

He just smiled.    

    

Then, he walked around the table twice.    

    

Then he said: "For the northern expedition, we need people, troops, logistics... Also, there is also the guarantee of support from the side, at least enough troops to be on standby. If anything happens at the front line, you can immediately respond, and rescue should be needed "    

    

Speaking up to this point, he paused for a moment.    

    

Then he said, "You should know that my parents were unable to save them in time. They died on the battlefield, and no matter what the Xiao family did, it didn't matter. His Majesty will give us sufficient forgiveness because... our Xiao family is loyal to him! "    

    

The two old generals couldn't help but tremble.    

    

These words were the truth!    

    

In the current generation of Xiao family, Xiao Yun was the only one.    

    

Besides his eldest son, all of Old Devil Xiao's sons had died on the battlefield.    

    

And the eldest son had also heard that his heart was filled with anxiety, and he could no longer give birth to a child.    

    

In this huge family business, there was only one heir...    

    

There were even fewer widows!    

    

If Xiao Yun died, the Xiao family would be gone.    

    

If this wasn't considered the loyalty of the entire family, then what was?    

    

Xiao Yun said, "As for what exactly happened at that time, I don't have the ability to know now. There were very few people who knew about that incident, and after so many years had passed... Those who died, those who fled, those who hid. They could not find it anymore, so they could only put it aside for the time being and not bother about it. The only thing I can do is to prevent this from happening to our Xiao family once again. This point... Do you understand? "    

    

The two old generals nodded their heads heavily.    

    

Yang Shuo sighed and said, "I don't know what happened that year either. We are the Prosecutor's Office. What we need to do is to defend this land. As for what happened at the front line, we really have no way of knowing."    

    

Xiao Yun nodded and said, "This is also one of the reasons why I want to trade with you. The water at the border is too deep. It is complicated. There are not many people I can trust. For now, I can only transfer people from the Prosecutor's Office. Of course, this isn't for free. "    

    

He turned to look outside the door.    

    

Then he shook his head.    

    

Then he continued: "The matter of the northern expedition was personally approved by His Majesty, and this matter was decided. His Majesty will have sufficient compensation for anyone who was transferred. But not only that, I will also do my best... Compensate anyone who is willing to help our Xiao family. "    

    

"To tell you the truth, this expedition to the north is not just an act, but an actual achievement! We will never forget anyone who is willing to pay for this achievement. We will get enough benefits from them. "    

    

"Achievement or something..."    

    

Yang Shuo smiled awkwardly.    

    

It was impossible to not want credit.    

    

Even though they had already reached the limit of the military.    

    

But who wouldn't want to have more credit on them?    

    

What did soldiers rely on to survive in the court? It wasn't a political achievement, nor was it a fine article, but it had to rely on actual battle results to speak!    

    

Whoever contributed more would have a strong backbone.    

    

This was a principle that had never changed since ancient times.    

    

Xiao Yun grinned.    

    

He knew that the two of them had agreed.    

    

Then he waved his hand and said, "The deal is done. Let's have a meal and have a good sleep. I have to hurry tomorrow."    

    

Yang Shuo was stunned for a moment and quickly asked, "You haven't told me what we should do."    

    

Xiao Yun said, "The superior to the subordinate, everything comes from the supervision. People will only do what you do to supervise them. They will not do what you want them to do. But the transaction is a matter of the same level, even if you are high and mighty generals. But I am also the master of Xiao family's workshop, the only Saint Grade in Qin Country. And the most important thing in trading is mutual trust. The trust that I, Xiao family's workshop, have accumulated over such a long period of time... It won't be bad. You guys have been sitting in the position of the Supporting Occupation Division for so long. Your reputation won't be bad either, just like how you won't suspect that I will give you armor with poor workmanship when the time comes. It's the same for crude longswords, and I also won't suspect that you are providing for the northern expedition... There is no need to hide anything. This is a fair trade. "    

    

The two old generals looked at Xiao Yun seriously.    

    

Pei Donglai said directly, "There's no need to eat. Since you are rushing tomorrow, you should rest early. We also have some things to do, so we will leave first."    

    

After saying that, the two of them really left.    

    

They didn't even leave behind a certificate for their transaction.    

    

But they both knew that the other party wouldn't lie to them.    

    

Xiao Yun really liked this kind of trust that was based on character.    

    

Wait. The two generals left.    

    

Only then were the people outside permitted to enter.    

    

Hong Xiluo looked at the back of the carriage and couldn't help but sigh, "To be able to get two Great Generals from Qin Country to come here personally, Young Master Xiao is indeed extraordinary."    

    

Old Man Ma couldn't help but twitch his mouth.    

    

The ones who knew Xiao Yun was extraordinary the most were merchants like them.    

    

What he said now was simply flattery.    

    

Of course, what Hong Xiluo was more concerned about was what the two of them were here to discuss with Xiao Yun!    

    

It might be a business matter. After all, who wouldn't want the things in Xiao family's workshop?    

    

But there was another possibility.    

    

It was about the northern expedition!    

    

Currently, the biggest problem in Qin Country was the northern expedition.    

    

It could even be said that the biggest problem in the entire continent was also the northern expedition of the Qin Country.    

    

Not to mention them.    

    

The people of the Northern Wei probably already knew about it by now.    

    

But whether they believed it or not?    

    

It was another matter.    

    

After all, the northern expedition sounded more like a fantasy.    

    

Xiao Yun kept quiet about what had happened before.    

    

He did not respond to Hong Xiluo either.    

    

He invited everyone to have a meal.    

    

Then, he went to sleep with the bonfire in the hall.    

    

That night seemed normal.    

    

But who knew how big the decision was!    

    

The next day, the merchant group continued on their way.    

    

This time, they left much faster.    

    

The troops that had been suppressed for two days immediately fired at full speed, as fast as lightning.    

    

They ate well on the way and lived well. Their speed was beyond their imagination.    

    

After a few days, not only were they not tired, they were even more energetic!    

    

Xiao Yun did not complain about suffering anymore. He cooperated quite well along the way.    

    

If Qing'er was by his side, he would probably go around and make some local specialties.    

    

Of course.    

    

If Qing'er was not injured, Xiao Yun would not run out and walk this way.    

    

Time flew by.    

    

The destination was still ahead.    

    

Hong Xiluo and Xiao Yun had gotten closer these days.    

    

There were some things that he would never say to outsiders, especially some things related to the Sun Moon Country.    

    

He also told Xiao Yun.    

    

In the form of chatting.    

    

Hong Xiluo's idea was very simple.    

    

In the future, Xiao Yun would be a member of Hong family. Whether he returned to Qin Country or settled down in Sun Moon Country, this was something he should know.    

    

Whatever he needed to avoid, what he could do, he needed to make his own judgment after he understood this country.    

    

Old Man Ma was also more direct.    

    

Everything in Molan Country was open and honest, as if he was afraid that Xiao Yun would not know.    

    

This was because Xiao Yun would be an important partner of Molan Country in the future.    

    

It would be even higher and more important than this.    

    

"How far is it?"    

    

The tiredness of the journey finally showed on Xiao Yun's face.    

    

"Young master, at this rate, we will arrive in about ten days' time."    

    

"It has been more than a month..."    

    

Xiao Yun let out a long sigh.    

    

The matter of the northern expedition should have already begun.    

    

It was now considered to be the deep winter, and it was the most suitable time.    

    

At least... Qin Country should drag the northern Wei into the abyss of war during this winter!
