Of course, Yuchi Gong and Qin Shubao didn't know what Zhang Feng was up to.
They only thought that something had happened on the mountain.
After all, it was a barren mountain. It had only been a month, so it was natural that there would be problems. Not to mention, this kid was so eager for quick success.
Yuchi Gong stroked his beard. Zhang Feng couldn't help but shudder when he saw the fleas on his beard. He swore in his heart that after these three left, he would definitely take a good medicinal bath.
These fleas, this person was really something. There were so many fleas, but he was still alive and well?
He hadn't been squeezed dry?
Yuchi Gong naturally didn't know what Zhang Feng was thinking. He stroked his beard and said, "Feng Zi, is there someone on the mountain causing trouble? If that's the case, I only need my two sons to go to your Academy. If anyone dares to cause trouble, they'll all be thrown off the mountain. How about that? "
Damn it, what kind of people were they?
Beating people up for no reason?
Zhang Feng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No one is causing trouble in the Academy. But you know, to build an Academy, money is needed everywhere. Old Chen and the others know my situation best. If it weren't for Lao Li's little help, the Academy might have gone on strike!"
"I understand. You're short of money!"
Cheng Yaojin's eyelids twitched.
He glanced at Yuchi Gong and Qin Qiong, then looked at Zhang Feng, who was pretending to be poor. The corner of his mouth twitched. You're short of money?
He knew that he didn't pay a single cent for the construction of the Academy. Instead, he made a lot of money. The Emperor paid for the land, which was equivalent to giving it away for free. Previously, the Emperor paid for the land, but in the end, he returned a lot of money. Didn't this money end up in his pocket?
Moreover, the Crown Prince was basically supporting the construction of the Academy.
You paid for it?
But Cheng Yaojin didn't dare to say that. He also wanted to see how Yuchi Gong and Qin Qiong would feel after knowing that they had been defeated.
As expected.
Qin Qiong cupped his fists and said with an expression of being stunned by Zhang Feng's words, "Little friend Zhang Feng is truly noble and a role model for my generation. It really makes me feel ashamed. If you lack food, then I really can't take it out. But if you're talking about silver, as long as you need it, it just so happens that the copper coins in my storehouse are about to go moldy. I'll find someone to send it to you on another day, immediately!"
Zhang Feng's eyelids twitched.
Is the money in the treasury moldy?
How much would that cost?
He hurriedly cupped his hands and sighed with emotion, "Elder Brother Qin is still the best! Then, I'll thank you here! "
"Wait!"
How could Yuchi Gong sit still?
However, before he spoke, he looked at Cheng Yaojin. That meant …
How would Cheng Yaojin know that he would be caught in the crossfire if he just sat there and didn't speak?
He could only say, "Lao Tzu isn't like the rest of you. I estimate that 500 dan of food and fodder have already been transported to Xiao Mountain!"
When Zhang Feng heard this, he grabbed Cheng Yaojin's hand excitedly.
"Elder Brother Chen! You're really the savior of my college! I represent White Deer College to thank you for the food. When my college is completed, there will definitely be a place for you on the Merit Monument! "
When Cheng Yaojin heard this, he stroked his beard and laughed loudly as he stared at Yuchi Gong. "You're still the best. Good, good, good. When the food from the south arrives, I'll think of a way to get some for you."
Yuchi Gong was infuriated!
He clenched his teeth and slammed the table. "I don't have any food, but I heard that Feng Zi is looking for skilled craftsmen? I happen to have such talents under me. If you need them, I'll get them for you tomorrow. Is five thousand enough? "
Zhang Feng was stunned.
Five thousand people?
Do you think I'm a charity hall here?
Raise five thousand people for you?
Although he didn't know what these people under Old Yu did, these five thousand mouths needed to eat ah! After calculating, Zhang Feng still gritted his teeth and said, "Although …"
Seeing Zhang Feng's ugly expression, Yuchi Gong gritted his teeth again and said, "Along with them up the mountain were Old Man's ten thousand coins and some silk brocade!"
When he heard this, Zhang Feng immediately squeezed out a smile.
"Oh my, Elder Brother, you're still the most practical!"
"Alright! Just based on your words, even if you want me to sacrifice my life, I won't hesitate! "
Yuchi Gong felt the pinch. Moreover, the five thousand people under him were all skilled in construction. When there was a war, it was fine because they were all treasures. Whether it was blacksmiths or carpenters, they were all experts. There were even top craftsmen. However, when there was no war, they had to spend a lot of money and food to raise them.
Normally, it wasn't much.
Every mouthful of food was a matter of money.
However, there was no other way now!
Yuchi Gong was already eating porridge every day. Where would he have the money to raise people?
However, after being provoked by Cheng Yaojin, he instantly thought of this idea. It just so happened that Zhang Feng was short on manpower and he couldn't afford to raise them. Didn't they happily reach an agreement?
After they drank another bowl of wine, Zhang Feng asked, "Oh right, may I know why you brothers are here this time?!"
"… …"
