[MTL] I Built a Territory in Ancient Times

Chapter 58

58. Chapter 58

In Ming Yu's mind, eagerly waiting, half a month later, Ming Yu finally waited for the news of the return of the caravan.

It has to be said that their first westbound journey was indescribable, but fortunately, they lived up to the heavy trust and finally completed the task explained by Ming Yu.

Ming Yu finally waited for the caravan to return from the dusty place ten miles west of Liangcheng.

There were carts full of cargo, and horses pulling the cart, covered in dirt and dust. Although they were all dirty, they were still able to tell that they were more than a circle bigger than the horses they brought out.

The group almost burst into tears when they saw Ming Yu. After going out for so long, they finally came home to see someone they knew, and they suddenly had emotional sustenance. The excitement was unparalleled.

Bua Tan took the lead in dismounting and gave a big gift to Ming Yu, "My lord, the villain lived up to his trust, and finally fulfilled the request of the lord."

Ming Yu hurriedly took two steps forward, lifted Bu Atan, and patted his shoulders. "Okay, very good! The king is already relieved enough to be able to return safely. Did everything go well this way?"

Ming Yu's caring words made Bua Tan extremely grateful, "Thank you for your concern, my lord, everything is fine, although there are some problems. It was as good as it was supposed to be, but with everyone's help, we finally got through the difficulties."

It is impossible to say that there were no difficulties along the way. From big bandits to small thieves, not to mention the sinister environment and harsh climate. Fortunately, everyone did not give up, united as one, and helped each other. It is very satisfying to have such a result.

Buatan pointed to the horses behind him and said, "My lord, please take a look, these are all good horses in the Western Regions, and two of them are called rouge horses. If it hadn't been according to the method that the lord said, I'm afraid someone would have hit us long ago."

Ming Yu followed his hand and looked over, and there were indeed two horses that were tall and strong, if they weren't covered with mud Covered by ash, others can see the horse's steed at a glance.

Ming Yu stepped forward, nodded repeatedly and said yes, with incomparable joy in his eyes. Looking at the dozens of horses in front of him, he seemed to see the development potential of the future horse farm. Give him a little time, and his horse farm will have infinite possibilities.

Dayan was short of horses. Because there were no good horses, the number of cavalry was too scarce and could only be used for small-scale operations or raids. The iron cavalry against the Suixi country can only resist with the flesh and blood of the infantry, so every time it takes on a tough battle, the casualties of the Dayan garrison are a terrible number.

The Suixi Kingdom relied on the cavalry to show off its might, and many times bandits bordered, but Dayan dared to be angry and did not dare to speak. Why? Isn't it just that there are no good horses? In a few years or even more than ten years, he Mingyu will change this status quo, and he will rely on these horses in front of him.

"My lord, the villain specially brought back two people for the lord. I hope the lord can use it." Bua Tan said.

"Bring back two people?" Ming Yu wondered, who would Buatan bring back on purpose?

Bua Tan nodded and smiled: "They are from the country of Wan, called Chi Zhe and Agapa, and they have been raising horses for generations in their families, and they are very good at raising and training horses.

In fact, along the way, these horses are also thanks to their care. "

Speaking of which, Buatan's caravan was able to gather so many horses, and it all depended on these two to deal with it. The brothers Chizhe and Agappa were arrested because they offended the nobles. The team passed by, and Bua Tan accidentally heard the two people's life experience, so he kept his mind.

Thinking of the task of buying horses that Ming Yu gave him, they were not familiar with each other, and their understanding of horses was not very thorough. , it is the lack of such good horses in the team. If I can give a little favor and rescue these two people to earn the caravan, it will be much easier to get the help of these two people when it comes to buying horses. When

he thought of it, he did it. Bua Tan bribed the responsible official with a blue and white porcelain vase, and easily rescued the two. The two were grateful to Dade, and they did everything for them wholeheartedly. These horses were selected by their hands. It's a good horse. The two brothers have no relatives. No, they came with the caravan when they came back.

Bua Tan's words made Ming Yu really surprised. Because it is a horse from the Western Regions, its living habits are completely different from those of Dayan. I am afraid that if the horse is brought back, no one can take care of the horse, which is a bit difficult. Fortunately, Bua Tan is careful , thinking of this, now that Bouatan brought him two ready-made ones, why didn't he make him happy?

"Is this true? It's great, this is the kind of talent that this king lacks. King Buatan will give you a great credit. Ming Yu stroked his palms and smiled.

Chi Zhe and Agapa had already stood up at Buatan's signal, knelt down towards Ming Yu, and said in less fluent Chinese, "Your Highness, please be safe. "

They are sinners who were made slaves, and Buatan bought them as their masters. However, Buatan said that their masters were the princes of the Great Yan Kingdom, and respectable nobles. They had never heard of them. However, there is also a country called Great Yan, which is far to the east, and Buatan and the others came from there.

They worked for Buadan's caravan, and the people in the caravan treated them well and did not treat them as slaves in the slightest. These oriental people, whose faces and words are very different, speak and act modestly and politely, which makes them deeply curious about the distant eastern country.

So what kind of person will their master Wang Ye be? At first, they were very uneasy. However, seeing Ming Yu's modest demeanor and kind smile, their hearts finally calmed down. No wonder, with such a master, the people in the caravan will be the same as the master.

Ming Yu smiled and got them up, "You know how to keep horses?" The

two looked at each other and nodded.

They don't know anything else. There is no problem in raising horses. It is also because the horses raised by their brothers were taken care of by the nobles and wanted to take them by force. Only then did they impose charges on them, and they were regarded as slaves. A Tan's caravan passed by and rescued them, they were probably already...

"Very good, from now on, this king will hand over these horses to you, and you will raise horses for this king. I will treat you badly." Ming Yu said.

Let them raise horses, which is their job. The two nodded vigorously at the same time. It is right for them to do things for their masters. They are very lucky to be able to raise horses and do familiar things. They believe that they will be able to raise the best and strongest horses for the prince.

Ming Yu was very happy, looked at the red-robed army and the guards guarding the caravan, waved his sleeves, and said loudly: "Everyone has worked hard, this king has set up a banquet, and I will take care of everyone tonight. Drunk not returning."

"Promise!" Everyone happily agreed. The atmosphere suddenly reached its peak, and it was affirmed by the prince. The fatigue of the past few months was swept away, and all of a sudden, the energetic spirit was restored.

Tonight is destined to sing and laugh, and gongs and chips are staggered. Ming Yu has never been so happy today, and he was very drunk that night. Almost all the people at the banquet were drunk, and the banquet gradually disbanded until dawn.

When Ming Yu woke up, the sun was already in the west. After drinking the hangover medicine and hangover soup brought by Qingping, Ming Yu's headache after hangover was relieved. I didn't expect this hangover medicine to work so well.

Qing Ping rubbed his temples for him with understanding, and said angrily: "Look at you, drinking so much, it must be uncomfortable now?"

Ming Yu laughed, "Isn't this happy, Qing Ping, you Do you know, I have horses, my horse farm will be built soon, those horses are good horses, and soon I will have more horses, they will become war horses, compared to the horses of the barbarians No less, they will carry the soldiers on the battlefield, fight side by side with the soldiers, and let the enemy flee."

Thinking of this day, Ming Yu couldn't help laughing, the more he thought about it, the more he laughed. happy. Qingping's movements were gentle and yet firm, and the right massage made Ming Yu narrow her eyes comfortably.

"Okay, I got it. But does the lord know that General Xie has been waiting for you for a long time?" Qingping pursed her lips and smiled.

"Ouch! General Xie is here? What is he doing here?" Ming Yu straightened up and asked with a frown.

Isn't this a well-intentioned question? Qingping remembered the hangover medicine just now, thanks to General Xie. Then he smiled and said: "I don't know, but General Xie should be concerned about His Highness."

If he believed this, he would be a ghost! Take care of yourself, hehe! It is better to say that he is concerned about these horses, thinking of the original promise. Ming Yu grimaced and hummed, this Xie Yixiu was running too fast, right? How come other things are not so positive?

"Debt collector." Ming Yu muttered, "You just said that this king is still drunk."

Qing Ping laughed, "The servant said it, General Xie said it, and he will wait until His Highness wakes up."

Ming Yu raised his forehead, Xie Yixiu's purpose of coming here is obvious. He really is the master who doesn't see rabbits but not hawks. The caravan just came back yesterday, and he's here to collect debts today. whispering sound! The horses he brought back haven't even warmed up yet!

Come on, there is no way to avoid it, so I can only face it.

Ming Yu went to the front hall to meet Xie Yixiu after washing and changing clothes. After waiting for half a day, Xie Yixiu's face was still calm.

Seeing Ming Yu, they sat down with each other after bowing. Xie Yixiu looked at Ming Yu, because of the hangover, Ming Yu's face was pale and tired. Xie Yixiu frowned slightly in an inexplicable mood.

Yesterday, he heard that the caravan sent by Ming Yu had returned and returned with a full reward. Ming Yu set a banquet for them to catch the wind and dust. At the banquet, drinking and socializing were inevitable. Ming Yu woke up today and was afraid that he would have to endure hardship.

Anyway, I am not at ease in the army. There are special hangover medicines in the army, which are very effective in relieving the headache and brain swelling after a hangover. It is better to send some to Ming Yu to prevent him from suffering. He came here early, and all the way, there was a worry in his heart that he didn't even know about, and it was not until he saw him that his heart relaxed a little bit.

When he saw Ming Yu sitting down and rubbing his temples with his head supported, he was obviously a little uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but blurt out, "Your Highness, drinking hurts your health, it's better to drink less in the future."

Ming Yu scolded in his heart, hum! Fake kindness, knowing that this king is suffering from a hangover today, still came over to collect debts early in the morning?

Ming Yu waved his hand and said with a smile on his face, "No problem. General Xie is really well informed. The caravan just came back yesterday. Are you coming to ask for a horse today?

" ? Only then did I remember the original agreement, but at this time it was difficult to say what I had come to say that was not the case today, so I could only remain silent.

In Ming Yu's eyes, Xie Yixiu's silence was like a tacit agreement, Ming Yu pouted, "? ? Xie Yixiu
readily agreed, and the two of them walked together with their own guards. Those horses were kept in the guard camp outside the city, because Ming Yu was still a little unwell, so he The carriage was prepared, and Xie Yixiu rode with him.

The horses had already been cleaned and cleaned, and they were grazing leisurely at this time. Bu Atan really knows how to handle affairs, and every horse he selected has smooth fur. , Strong and powerful, with a smooth waist and sturdy limbs, it is completely incomparable with Dayan's pony.

Even Xie Yixiu, who was used to seeing good horses, couldn't help but get jealous.
