The emergence of a rifle can be said to kill two birds with one stone. On the one hand, it can arm the shepherds, and on the other hand, it can also take the opportunity to resurrect the military weapon outside the pass.

The scale of the new army in Zhenguo should not be expanded for the time being. It is not that Zhenyuan Kingdom is afraid of being criticized, but that Ye Chunqiu is more than incompetent than indiscriminateness.

There are completely two systems inside and outside the pass, selling guns to the shepherds. Ye Chunqiu had doubts before, but after weighing the pros and cons, he finally made a decision.

The inner city is overcrowded and there are no foreign enemies, which leads to internal conflicts, so it is understandable that the court has put their swords into the warehouse.

The situation outside the pass is completely different. For these herdsmen who do not have an advantage in numbers, external troubles are the fundamentals.

When people are outside the pass, their greatest threat comes from foreign races, and what they can rely on is their own compatriots. Just like ordinary people who meet fellow villagers in the pass, they often become more friendly when they meet fellow villagers, but here they feel more friendly when they meet fellow villagers.

When facing this vast world and this vast grassland, everyone will inevitably feel timid, and therefore it is easier to get together.

Each pasture will become a stronghold for the Han people in the future, and each of them will guard their cattle and sheep with their own guns. The Qinglong is a distribution center for cattle and sheep, and at the same time provides various supplies to all pastures.

To put it bluntly, Qinglong is a market for herders, and the business bank replaced the functions of the government and became the organizers of a village or a ranch. They used their interests to attract people in ragged underwear to come here to break out a world. They would also defend the fruits of the ranch without doubt. If necessary, once they encountered a great enemy, the Zhenguo Mansion could recruit these "cowboys" who released horses in Qinglong, gather together and smash all the invaders.

When people are on the pasture, there are no Four Books and Five Classics anymore. They only have wildness and human instincts, and the fittest survives.

Those who are poor in equestrianism and are even timid and afraid of things will be immediately rejected by the team they are in and ridiculed and ridiculed. Therefore, everyone here will work hard to learn to release their wildness.

Ye Chunqiu felt that he was cultivating a new nation, and a great Han nationality that was still connected with the blood of the Han Dynasty in the pass, but was not bound by the Four Books and Five Classics. Once upon a time, his ancestors were not like this hundreds or thousands of years ago? During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, countless people flocked out of the pass, using the horse-huns’ best riding and shooting, and knocked the Huns all over the ground for teeth. There was no so-called swords and guns here, but only the competition for nature.

So at this time, Ye Chunqiu looked at his uncle, and while having a headache about the little emperor missing, he had an idea. He said to Sun Qi: "Uncle, the civilian cars in the pass should be reduced in price."

"Hmm?" Sun Qi looked at Ye Chunqiu in confusion and said, "But now, the sales of civilian cars are still good, why bother..."

Ye Chunqiu shook his head, with a bit of cunning smile on his face, and said, "Take the opportunity now, lower the price and let more people buy it. If you buy a car, you need to buy a horse. We can earn money immediately. As long as the horse price remains high, it will be more profitable. At that time, there will only be more people leaving the customs. And the more people out of the customs, what do you think will happen?"

Sun Qi said: "This...it's better to make it clear."

Ye Chunqiu said: "Things are always connected with each other. Once a large number of people leave the customs, the manpower will be insufficient for farming within the customs, and the price of manpower will increase dramatically. Just like in the past sedan chairs, who is willing to spend money to hire so many people to carry sedan chairs and rent land? Then the gentry will inevitably have to use carriages to replace travel and livestock to replace manpower to farm. In this way, will our cars be sold more and more? Are our cattle and horses more and more expensive? Are there more and more people coming out of the customs and other pastures?"

Sun Qi took a deep breath, but this nephew was still looking at the problem thoroughly. At present, the foundation of Zhenguo Mansion is in Qinglong, and the foundation of Qinglong now seems to be a transaction of cattle and horses and a ranch. If the transaction of cattle and horses and a prosperous ranch, one must maintain the horse price and ensure that there is a continuous demand for cattle and horses outside the pass. At that time, there is no need for Zhenguo Mansion to threaten and induce whips and carrots. Those profit-seeking merchants will naturally instigate countless young and strong people to come out of the pass.

More importantly, these young and strong men became herders and earned money from the pass, but their consumption was in Qinglong. Under this huge consumption demand, various necessities for people's livelihood, such as riding guns, stirrups, tents, salt, and even soap beans and clothing, could be expanded here. Qinglong could use the shepherds to vigorously develop industry and commerce, becoming a manufacturing center and a commercial center for cow and horse trading.

Of course, the shepherds who come out of seclusion are the better.

If you figure this joint out, everything will make sense.

Sun Qi smiled knowingly and said excitedly: "I will ask the Investment Promotion Office to draft a charter. Now there is no hurry. The horse price is already high anyway. When the horse price drops a little, then the car price will drop sharply. We must make more people able to get on the car."

Ye Chunqiu couldn't help but feel cold and handsome. Sometimes, his uncle actually has a sense of humor.

only……

Ye Chunqiu immediately sighed and said, "Everything here is about to be on track now. What I am really worried about now is the news from Your Majesty. This Majesty is really not worry-free. Well, he actually ran out, but where did he go? According to his temperament, he should have been out of seclusion. Could it be that he had some danger? Alas... He is really like a child sometimes."

Speaking of Zhu Houzhao, Sun Qi also sighed that since Ye Chunqiu received news from the pass that Zhu Houzhao had sneaked out, people almost made people look through the Qinglong, but there was still no trace of Zhu Houzhao.

Sun Qi naturally knew the pressure on Ye Chunqiu. At this time, he couldn't help but frown and said, "Now people have been sent to search everywhere. I guess there will be a result soon. And didn't Qian Qian come out with His Majesty? With Qian Qian here, he will never encounter any danger. As long as he is out of the way, we will always have the trace of His Majesty. Now, have people sent to inform the brothels and inns? I believe there will be news soon, so don't worry about Chunqiu."
