"This thing is a treasure." Shangwen said.

Others don't know the purpose of this whale, but Shangwen is very clear about the purpose of this thing.In the Atlantic, the profitability of whalers was second only to those of merchant ships.The economic raw materials produced by whaling are unimaginable.Shangwen suddenly felt that he had found an economically profitable project, which was a major discovery for Shangwen.

"So, how did you catch these whales?" Shang Wen said looking at the whales.The prospects for whaling were exceptionally broad.

"This gentleman seems to be interested in this big fish. No, goldfish," said the old man.

"Yes." Shangwen nodded, how could Shangwen know.The old man was talking about goldfish, not the whale that Shang Wen said.

"These goldfish were dragged back from the reef by us. For some reason, those goldfish would crash to death." The old man said.

"When we encounter such a situation, we will drag back those big fish that have been killed. These big fish can burn a lot of fat. These things are enough for us to use." The old man said.

"En." Shangwen nodded.

"That's true. By the way, old man. Can salt be dried here?" Shangwen asked.

"I'm afraid it won't work. The waves here are very big, and there are only a few days every year. But it's only enough for our village. If there is more, we will replace some daily necessities." The old man introduced.

"Oh." Shangwen nodded.

Through chatting, Shang Wen further understood the local economic situation. This is a fishing village.People here rely on fishing for their livelihood.The salinization of the land here is too severe, and it is impossible for them to obtain their annual harvest by farming, and fishing has become their main income.

The Qi people along the coast still haven't developed enough of the sea.Just look at the whaling.Their method of whaling is very old and full of luck.These things can't yet form a strong commercial factor.Shangwen decided to make a change.

In the Kingdom of Chu, private soldiers of nobles are recruiting a temporary army.This army was made up of slaves, prisoners.

"Hurry up, come out." The private soldier smashed some slaves with the butt of his gun.These slaves were beaten passively.

"Hurry up." The private soldiers drove the slaves away.The nobles need to cobble together an army to go to the rescue of their ever-cutting army of logistical supplies.However, the country of Chu cannot mobilize more power for the time being.So these slaves became the last wounds of the nobles of Chu.

"I really don't know. What's the use of these large troops." A young Chu army officer said with one foot on the chariot.

"What's the use of these slaves? If we want to use such an army to fight, it's better not to have one." Another officer said with a whip.

"Okay. Brother." Said the young Chu army officer.

"It is simply impossible for those noble lords to send more people. Use these slaves as you like," the young officer said.

"During the war, give them some weapons and let them rush over and get shot, get shot." The young officer said.

"It is said that those Qi people don't have many weapons. If we fight like this, I think we slaves can get some cheap money." The young officer said.

"Well. When will we set off?" the officer asked.

"I don't know. It depends on when the noble master gathers these slaves. After that, we can start off. Just wait." The young officer said.

"En." The officer nodded helplessly.Slaves were gathered from all over by the private soldiers of the nobles.Many of them had their hands tied, and some of them still had dirt on their legs.Apparently they were taken from the fields.The nobles who were short of soldiers could only concentrate the recruitment of soldiers on the slaves.

On the farmland of the nobles of Chu State in the south.A thug was walking back and forth with a wooden stick.

"Have you heard? The boss told us to arrest all those strong men. Then send them all to the north to fight." The big hand holding the wooden stick said to another well-dressed thug at this time.

Not far away, a slave with a barrel bent over and listened to the conversation of two thugs.

"Send them to fight, who will grow this land?" Another thug asked curiously.

"Who will plant, of course those women will plant. They are the only ones to plant. We don't need to look carefully." The thug with the wooden stick said.

"No. Dude, you have to watch it carefully." Another thug said with a smile.

"Yes. You have to watch carefully." The thug with the stick said with a smile.

The slave with the barrel in the distance knew that he had to leave here quickly.Because it is no longer possible for him to get useful news from the other party.However, he knew a shocking news.That is, the noble plan to gather all the males.Become a new army and send it to the front.Thus.Their chances of escape are slim.The army on the battlefield is extremely strict.Escaping from there was obviously impossible.After hearing the news.The slave left here immediately and quickly.He wants to act as soon as possible.

This news is too important to them.If slaves want to escape, they must do so as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to escape.Once gathered in the army, it is difficult for their lives to be in their own hands.

1546 a good card

"My lord. This matter." Li Xin stood aside respectfully. He didn't know how to explain such a thing in his jurisdiction. The robbers actually robbed King Qin.When I heard about it.Li Xin's back was soaked.

"Have you found out?" King Qin didn't look at Li Xin.

"Not yet." Li Xin replied truthfully.

"Your local military chief is doing very well." King Qin said angrily.

"Your Majesty, the general is guilty." Li Xin bowed his head and said.

King Qin didn't speak.Meng Tian at the side saw that Li Xin was in trouble, and for King Qin, this matter was indeed very annoying.The robbers even snatched something and took it to King Qin's head.According to King Qin's disposition, I'm afraid these robbers are dead.

"Your Majesty, it is difficult for General Li to maintain such a large jurisdiction, and I hope your Majesty will forgive General Li." Meng Tian said from the side.

"En. Tell me." King Qin gave Meng Tian a chance to explain the situation.

"Your Majesty. Although the northern border is smaller than the southern border, it is still a large place. And our army is very weak. In addition, the police and security forces in Xinzhou have not long been established. In addition, they are eager to seek money. .” Meng Tian analyzed.

"So, this directly led to the occurrence of such a thing." Meng Tian tried to keep his words to a minimum, in order to leave enough space for King Qin to think about this matter.

"So, the law and order is so poor that the robbers can openly rob the train. I have heard that it is not once or twice. Judging from the winter of robbery, it has been several times." King Qin said loudly.

Hear here.Li Xin was covered in cold sweat.Such a thing, Li Xin did know.To be honest, Li Xin didn't treat this matter as a big deal.

"Meng Tian, ​​don't speak good words to him. I know very well." King Qin said angrily.

"Think about it. You, Li Xin, are the highest military officer in this place. Your own logistics supply line is this railway. This railway is your lifeline. You have never heard of such a thing happening on your own lifeline. , did not take any measures." King Qin said angrily.

"How did you fight, Li Xin?" King Qin said loudly.

"Your Majesty. Last General. Damn it." Only at this time did Li Xin realize that he had really done something wrong.Qin Wang was not annoyed by Li Xin's poor security.It was Li Xin's reaction.Li Xin didn't even know to protect his logistics supply line.An important guarantee for the Qin army to gain a firm foothold is this railway line.What Li Xin did was really careless.

At this time, Meng Tian knew that he could no longer help Li Xin.Li Xin has made a big mistake.After replacing a large amount of military equipment, the Qin army became more and more dependent on logistics. Once the logistics supply line is not cut off, the consequences will be unimaginable. If there is not enough storage of materials, it will be difficult to persist until the day when the reinforcements arrive .This is a low-level mistake that a military commander should not make.

But this error.Li Xin committed a crime.This made Meng Tian on the side unable to refute King Qin's accusation.

"Guilty, guilt can't resist such a big mistake. The widow ordered you to wipe out the robbers here in a short time. You will take up your position temporarily, and the widow will find a more suitable person to replace you." King Qin Said angrily.Meng Tian looked very helpless, because he really couldn't help.

Xianyang, Qin State.Monty is doing his monthly State of the Union address.

"I know that everyone has been concerned about the issue of high tariffs imposed by Chu State. Chu State's high taxes have already affected our celebration." Meng Yi said while looking at his speech.

"The taxes levied by the people of the Chu country are paid by the people of the Qin country in a disguised form. It is very unfair to us." Meng Yi said.

"Yes. It's not fair." The Qin audience shouted loudly.

"We will take punitive measures against the Chu people." A Qin person shouted loudly.

"Let's fight, let's fight. Let's fight." The other Qin people shouted loudly, provoking Chu.The Qin people naturally thought of going to war, and the aggressive character made it difficult for the Qin people to swallow this bad breath.
