It wasn't until Qi Haoran led the person out of sight that Luo Zhan retracted his gaze, straightened his back, and his personal guard looked at him worriedly. Except for the chieftain and the priest, the second son never bowed to anyone else.

  Luo Zhan went back to the table and sat down, and asked, "Do you think Prince Rong would believe what I said just now?"

  The guard said thoughtfully: "King Rongjun is a smart man. He only listens to our family's words, and I'm afraid not to believe it, but what the second son said is the truth, but I'm not afraid to investigate."

  The Xixia people do often invade them, and the Luodian is indeed divided into two factions. One group advocates requesting the imperial court to garrison troops, and the other wants to build a guard army by himself. As long as Rongjun Wang is willing to send someone to Luodian, he can find out.

  Luo Zhan shook his head and chuckled: "I'm talking about rice seeds, do you think he would believe that the rice seeds came from us?"

  The guard is confused.

Luo Zhan sighed: "This is the greatest sincerity we have shown. If they don't believe it, what are we going to do to impress them? Just now, he only asked for a thousand dendrobium rice seeds, how much land can a thousand dendrobium grow? Obviously he doesn't believe us yet."

   The guard lowered his voice and said, "Do you really have to take out the iron and silver from the county..."

  Luo Zhan sighed and said, "Don't say it again." Why did the chieftain and others firmly oppose asking the imperial court to garrison the army, because they were afraid that the imperial court would discover the silver and iron minerals in the county and take away the minerals?

  The people in the county are in hardship, how do the chieftains and the elders of the clan rely on them to support them? Isn't that the silver and iron?

After all, this is the precious thing they can get. Because the yield of this kind of rice seed is good, Luo Zhan was full of confidence before coming here. condition.

  Luo Zhan actually has other options. After all, Qi Haoran doesn’t pay attention to this kind of grain, and he has someone else to recognize the food. But after seeing Qi Haoran himself, Luo Zhan has doubts about the feasibility of the second option.

At this moment, Xu Zhizheng followed closely behind Qi Haoran and said, "My lord, why do you only need a thousand dendrobium rice seeds? That's only enough to grow about 10,000 mu of rice fields, not to mention other places, Guangju Prefecture will be Not enough points."

  Qi Haoran hummed: "How many rice seeds can Xiao Luodian produce? And didn't you say that you haven't determined whether the rice seeds are stable? Do you dare to use them to sow the people, and if the harvest fails, you will feed the people?"

Xu Zhi didn't dare to speak, and Qi Haoran said, "Give the rice seeds to the princess, there are people under her who specialize in these experiments, and after confirming that the rice seeds can be planted, they will be promoted. Now there are corn and dry rice No. 1. As long as you are diligent enough and there are no corrupt officials, the people will not starve to death.”

   "Yes, it's because the lower officials didn't think carefully." Seeing that the prince's face was flat, Xu Zhi asked curiously, "Then prince, do you want to promise Luo Zhan to send troops to enter Luodian?"

  Qi Haoran glanced at him and said, "Luodian is my country in Great Qi, do you need your Lord to agree to him, the imperial court can't stop it, Luodian can't stop it, the court doesn't let it, Luodian can't ask for it."

  Xu Zhi stood there blankly and watched Qi Haoran walk away.

   Qi Haoran gave his son to Mu Yangling when he went back, and turned to find Mr. Qian to discuss.

  The fact that Xixia people can enter from Luodian is a very dangerous thing for Daqi, and he has never noticed this before.

Mr. Qian looked at the map for a while, and said, "My lord, there is only one path from Xixia to Luodian. You also said that Luo Zhan said that the path can only be passed by two people in parallel, and food, grass and luggage cannot go there at all, and from When Luodian came out, there was only a small mountain road, and the mountain road was rugged, and it was difficult for Xixia to attack on a large scale from there."

"But it's a loophole after all," Qi Haoran said, "If the opponent sneaks into the Luodian like ants moving troops, hides in the mountains and forests on both sides, and then takes down the Luodian in one fell swoop, and uses the Luodian as a supply to attack Lingnan, do you think we What are the odds of finding out about military intelligence?"

  Mr. Qian pondered.

Qi Haoran said: "You also said that there is only one mountain road from Luodian, and there are no villages and towns along the way. As long as they hide in the mountains and forests, our scouts are mainly distributed in the Wumeng area, and they will not pay attention to this side at all. Once they're done with their troops..."

  Mr. Qian shuddered when he thought of that scene, and said, "We will set up a garrison in Luodian!"

Qi Haoran nodded, "Yes, I would rather spend a bit more than leave such a big gap for Xixia." He took a pen and drew a point on the map, saying: "Since the garrison has been set up in Luodian, it is better to do more. To improve it, I want to set up a post here as a channel for the rapid delivery of secret reports, only six hundred miles of urgent military intelligence reports can go here."

  Mr. Qian looked at the point on the map in amazement, "Your Highness, isn't this in the deep mountains and old forests?"

  Qi Haoran nodded, "But when Luodian came out and passed it, Wumeng also went through here when he went to the capital. We just need to move the point slightly inward to avoid the sight of ordinary people."

  Mr. Qian pondered, in this way, the expedited military situation of more than 600 miles in the entire northwest region will pass through here, and the speed will be greatly accelerated when special personnel are specially assigned.

   As long as it works properly, even if the northwest is far away from the capital, it will always be under the control of the capital.

   "Just like this, the cost is probably not small..."

   Qi Haoran also held his head with a headache, yes, money is always a problem.

  Qi Haoran sighed and said: "I mentioned this in advance, and it doesn't have to be done now. First, the garrison of Luodian will be settled, and if the military situation is to be unimpeded, the road to Luodian must be repaired."

   Mr. Qian couldn't help but said, "It takes money to build roads."

  Qi Haoran glared at him and said, "Master knows you want money, this master will come up with a solution, you quickly draft a book, sort out what we just said, and send it to the capital tomorrow."

  Mr. Qian breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He was really afraid that Qi Haoran would leave the money-making to him.

   The next day, Mr. Qian handed the book to Qi Haoran, and Qi Haoran turned around to hand it over to the guard. Mr. Qian widened his eyes and said, "My lord, this book..."

  Qi Haoran then remembered that he hadn't copied it yet, so he coughed lightly and said, "Okay, let someone go to the barracks and let me know. I'll be training as usual today, and I'll go and copy it."

  Mr. Qian wrote the general papers for him, and he copied them and handed them in. Didn’t he think about money and forget them today?

  Fortunately, he didn't submit it, otherwise the elder brother would not be able to hide it even if he wanted to help him hide it. This document had to be screened by the courtiers. Those people's eyes are very sharp, and whether his handwriting can be seen at a glance.

  Qi Haoran took a pen and copied it. After reading it through, he made sure there was no problem, and then handed it over.

   Qi Haoran just wanted to go out to the barracks when he met Luo Zhan who was visiting at the door. Qi Haoran couldn't help raising his eyebrows, but Luo Zhan knew his whereabouts well, and even knew that he didn't go to the barracks today.

  Luo Zhan wasn't in a hurry, but he couldn't help but wanted to inquire about the news. Qi Haoran didn't give him an answer yesterday, whether he was willing to send troops there.
