The Reborn Wife is Farming

Chapter 1325 Extra Story Looking at the World (3)

Xiaofu was afraid that the little leopard would lose his money, so he personally helped calculate the cost of recruiting troops.

——He doesn't have much money!

Xiaofu has spent a lot of money in the past three years, and he is only at a slight disadvantage against several little princes, half of which depends on his own mind, and the other half depends on money.

The prince has power in the palace, he has money, they use their power to bully him, and he throws money back.

The palace servants in the upper study and the imperial dining room have all accepted bribes from him.

Fortunately, he is really rich, with a monthly bill of twenty taels, coupled with the returns from investing in Haimao, Pearl Sea Market, etc., as well as his mother's distressed support from time to time, the most important thing Xiaofu lacks is money.

But there is no shortage or need for him to use in this way.

What's more, it has become a practice for the children of the three families to do charity. Every year, he also has to donate part of the money to the person in charge of Baoxiong Academy to help poor students study.

So Xiaofu found that he seemed to have become poor after such a struggle.

In order to prevent the little leopard from wasting his money, he carefully found an abacus to help him calculate the cost of recruiting troops.

Then the two children discovered that they were so poor, and with so much money, they could only form a team of less than 500 people.

The cost of hiring soldiers and buying horses. They are the chief guards. These people are all from the army and know all about it.

Xiao Fu stared at the cost of the one hundred horses and said, "I don't think you should buy so many horses, and weapons, armor, food, etc. are not included."

The little leopard snapped his fingers, and said without tears: "If you count those, then I can't even afford to hire two hundred people..."

In fact, hiring people is not expensive, what is expensive is equipment, such as horses, weapons, armor, military uniforms, and food and grass consumed.

Little Leopard looked at the number on the paper, which was enough for a family to be rich for ten lifetimes, and found that he couldn't even hold a team of 500 people.

He sighed: "No wonder the father and mother often say that war hurts the people. We have so much money, let alone ordinary people."

Xiao Fu tilted his head and asked, "Then do you still want to grab the land?"

The little leopard slapped the table and said, "Yes!"

"Since we can't afford to hire 500 people, let's just hire 40 or 50 people, so that the funds will be more abundant."

Xiao Fu twitched the corner of his mouth and asked, "And then go to fight in groups?"

There are forty or fifty people, every year before the village fights for water, there are hundreds of people fighting, so are you going to grab the territory and fight the world, or are you going to fight in groups to play house?

Qi Haoran, who was about to persuade his son when he walked to the door, twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard the words, turned around and left. He only has the ambition to hire forty or fifty people. Are they still afraid that he will make a fuss?

Let them make trouble.

Xiao Baozi said confidently: "Even if there are only forty or fifty people, I can crush foreigners. If you don't believe me, just watch."

Of course Xiaofu didn't believe it.

The little leopard made an ambitious plan: "Know yourself and the enemy before you can win a hundred battles. I am still young, and I have been planning for eight or nine years. After I have figured out the foreigners thoroughly, it will be easy to conquer them."

Little Leopard also wrote a letter to his brothers to seek their support. Of course, besides spiritual support, the most important thing is financial support.

Xiaobao couldn't help laughing when he received the letter from his cousin, and said to Little Bear, "Little Leopard is really ambitious, but I don't know if he can still remember what he said today after eight or nine years."

Children always have many dreams, but they may not be able to realize them all when they grow up, but Xiaobao encourages this, so he wrote back to Xiaobaozi with a good temper, saying that he really wants to go to the West in the future, and he will use his brother's Supporting some of his property in name.

Xiaoxiong rolled his eyes and said that he must persevere in order to understand foreigners. The first thing to do is to learn their language, characters, understand their culture, and know the relationship between countries...

Seeing that he wrote so specifically, Xiaobao couldn't help but startled, and asked, "Are you really planning to use troops against Xiyang?"

Little Xiong said solemnly: "People don't offend me, so naturally I won't offend them, but I still have to take some precautions. Pedro has dominated the waters around Guangzhou for more than ten years, and as far as I know, the waters around India The coast is also gradually being controlled by Westerners, which shows their ambition."

"There are more and more foreigners coming to Daqi, and Daqi has a vast land and resources. Even a seven-year-old little leopard looks down on foreigners. It can be seen how different their lives are from Daqi. Do you think they will be willing to look at Daqi people?" Are you wealthy and comfortable, and you yourself suffer?"

Xiaobao gradually became serious.

Xiao Xiong continued: "Even though the western side is not as good as my Daqi, it still has strengths in weapons such as cannons and muskets, and the opponent's ships are far stronger than our Daqi. If the opponent uses ships to transport soldiers in Daqi If we exchange fire with us on the ground, Daqi will definitely suffer a huge loss."

"so……"

"Since Little Leopard is determined, it is better to let him prepare early. Although he is young now, he will grow up one day," Little Xiong said flatly: "If the Western countries really have conflicts with me, Daqi, then they will The battlefield should be moved to the west, although the distance is far away and the supply is somewhat difficult, but the impact on the people of Daqi is the lowest, and the loss is the lowest."

Xiaobao was silent for a while, and asked: "Will the Western countries really turn against me?"

Little Xiong twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "Britain, France and other countries have been strongly demanding that we give them a place for their fleet to dock. Not only the judicial power, but also the taxation are all managed by themselves. To set up a piece of land to establish another country, and some officials in the court still think that it is only a small area, no matter whether it is a gift or a rent, so as to make the Western countries surrender..."

Little Xiong curled his lips and said, "Tell me, do they have ambitions? Will they be tempted to attack me one day?"

It’s not that Xiao Xiong doesn’t care about face, and the “money oppression” from a young age let him know that the most beautiful thing is profit. For them, the leased land required by Britain, France and other countries is not even the size of a small village, which is so small that it can be ignored. However, For some countries in Europe, such a small area may be a country.

The most important thing is that Xiaoxiong has been educated by Qi Haoran and Mu Yangling since he was a child. The idea of ​​"national sovereignty is inviolable" is engraved in his bones. Let alone the area of ​​a small village, even a step of land will not be allowed. .

Back then, in order for my father to fight back the lost land with Da Jin, the border was moved by inches. Why should the descendants of them give or rent out the land?

If you want to dock a ship, you can, just like all passing ships, you have to go through inspections and queue up to enter the port. If you want to engage in privileges, there are no windows.

Little Bear guards against the Western countries, and encourages his younger brother to study and understand the Western Ocean, so as to prepare for future wars.

But the little lion and tiger head got excited, and expressed their willingness to fight with him with their younger brother, and immediately sent a box of silver notes.
