Upon hearing this, Xiaojing's parents were obviously moved.

Nuo Erliang also took out 35 taels on the spot: "I don't have any rice in my hand, as long as you are willing to let Xiaojing serve as a soldier, the 35 taels will be regarded as compensation for you."

Before seeing her, Xiaojin's parents agreed immediately.

The next step is to go to Xiaobao's house.

As soon as she saw Nuo Erliang, the expression of the old lady in Xiaobao's family changed, and she saw her grandson smiling. Looking at Nuo Erliang, his eyes were full of vigilance.

The old lady asked Nuo Erliang behind Xiaobao: "Why did this military master come back with my grandson? Did my grandson do something wrong?"

Seeing the attitude of the old lady, Xiaobao hurriedly smoothed things over: "Grandma, this is the "450" ​​general of our Qin State. He was the one who saved me and Xiaojin on the road just now, otherwise I would have been beaten to death by that lame man with a bald head. gone."

When she heard that Nuo Erliang had helped her a lot, the old lady's attitude changed obviously, "So that's the way it is, I was a little rash in my words just now, don't mind."

Nuo Erliang shook his head, and turned to talk about the purpose of his trip.

As soon as she heard that Xiaobao was going to join the army, the old lady's face changed slightly. The eldest in the family was still in the scientific examination and hadn't married yet, and threatened that if he failed the scientific examination, he would not marry a wife.

If Xiaobao is allowed to join the army, how will the family pass on the family line.

"Little Treasure is still young, how can he serve as a soldier and fight in battle? What if he accidentally offends a nobleman or dies on the battlefield?"

Xiao Jin's mother sneered: "Xiao Bao is still young, how old is Xiao Jin, but he is a year or two older than Xiao Bao, and Xiao Jin has already joined the army, why can't Xiao Bao go!"

"It's not that I want Xiaobao to go, it's just that he really isn't expected to be a soldier, I'm afraid..."

The old lady paused for a long time, then continued: "Your Xiaojin can go, don't take my Xiaobao with you.

When Xiao Bao heard this, he tightly squeezed the corner of his clothes.

He knew that if he persuaded his old lady, his desire to join the army would definitely come to naught.

Sighing lightly, Xiaobao said with a sense of loss: "Grandma, there are so many people in the family waiting to eat, if I go to join the army, I still have 30 taels of monthly money, so I can help the family solve their problems." I should do it."

While speaking, he took out his precious jade ring finger from his bosom, looked at it reluctantly, and gritted his teeth just as he was about to pass it to the old lady.

"You take this, and take a look at this if you want me."

The milk doll below bit her finger, and looked up to see that several people were about to snatch the jade wrench from Xiaobao's hand.

"Hey, this is for grandma." Xiao Baoyan hinted insincerely.

The old lady was a little bit reluctant, and opened her mouth, just about to say something.

Xiao Jin interrupted directly, "Old lady, I will take care of the baby when I'm by my side, so don't worry."

The old lady understood, and her complexion improved, "Okay, then let you go."

Seeing that the old lady had already agreed, and she had no regrets, Nuo Erliang hesitated for a while, then took out 35 taels of silver from his pocket and handed it to the old lady, "This is a reward for joining the army. I didn't bring 30 catties of rice with me, so I changed the city." I'll give you a thousand five taels of silver!"

30 catties of rice cost more than 30 taels of silver, the old lady accepted it happily, but glanced at Xiaobao with some reluctance.

Xiaobao also understood that the 15 taels of silver was paid by Nuo Erliang himself, so he quickly thanked him.

"I don't have much money, so I can only solve the urgent need. You don't need to thank me. If you really want to thank me, thank our general." Nuo Erliang said.

Xiao Bao frowned, bit the corner of his lips, pulled Xiao Jin and said: "Okay, we two will fight the enemy bravely after joining the army, thank you General."

On the same day, Zhao Ze received conscription statistics. There are more than 3,000 people in Jinzhou City who want to come to participate in the music.

There are more than 1,000 people in Jieshou area, and 4,000 people in Yuyangdu......

There were nearly 10,000 people on the first day, which was more than Zhao Ze expected.

However, thinking that all countries are recruiting soldiers to fight wars in recent days, the people are struggling to survive, food and clothing have become problems, and being a soldier has naturally become the first choice today.

That night, Zhao Ze received news from his subordinates in Xianyang.

It is said that the iron ore in the west of Liaoning has been successfully transported to Chu Ziban, the prince of Chu.

When dealing with Chu Zilan, Zhao Ze used the name of the merchant "Zhao Zhe".

Qin State is rich in iron ore, and Chu Zilan intends to train his own elite soldiers. Of course, this weapon cannot be taken from the treasury.

They can only secretly come to Qin to buy them.

After Zhao Ze heard the news, he immediately pretended to be the merchant "Zhao Zhe" to talk to Chu Zilan.

The purchase of iron ore in large quantities is likely to arouse suspicion, and in addition, Qin does not sell much iron ore to the outside world.

After the fight, he took advantage of the fire and robbed, asking for 70 million taels directly.

Of course Chu Zilan didn't agree at first, but this was almost half of his net worth.

70 million taels, this is not a small number.

Of course, Zhao Ze couldn't give up this opportunity. Seeing that he didn't want to cooperate, he already knew that he secretly recruited troops as a threat.

5.4 If it is discovered this time, it will be scratching your head.

Chu Zilan could only agree to cooperate, and of course Zhao Ze also promised him some benefits.

After receiving the money, Zhao Ze handed over 50 million taels to the imperial court, and he took the remaining 20 million taels without using it privately, and used it all to invest in the Qin army.

With the money, Zhao Ze boldly asked Nuo Erliang to recruit 70,000 elite soldiers for him.

Adding that they now have 50,000 people, there are a total of 120,000.

Dealing with the 140,000 Guishuang army is nothing to worry about.

Ten thousand elite soldiers were recruited that day, and then they began to consider expanding the barracks. .
