Chapter 784: Building a Money Village in the Northwest
After Ji Ya subdued a group of local forces in the Yunzhong Military Region, she began to rush in the east, west, north and south of the Great Zhou, and all the forces in the Yunzhong Military Region also knew that there was a blonde prince who would dominate Yunzhong County, and there were those who watched and those who disdained. Although most of the soldiers in northern Xinjiang are straightforward, they are not without ambitious people. It's just that when Mo Yunhai designed the military region, he thought of checks and balances, so at present, under the leadership of the Generalissimo's Mansion, the royal family is barely fed and clothed and not a threat.
If Ji Ya, as an outsider, wants to forcibly intervene, she will naturally be backlashed by local forces. Many people contacted the Generalissimo's Mansion, hoping to unite to resist Ji Ya.
Now Ji Ya can control more than 10,000 troops, and they have received a month's salary and food, which is a real benefit. The military region does not pay salaries and food, nor can it block others from fending for their own livelihood. And there are nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses under the Generalissimo's Mansion, no matter what the intentions of these tandem people are, without the support of the Generalissimo's Mansion, it is impossible to compete with Ji Ya. But the strange thing is that for Ji Ya, the Generalissimo's Mansion remained silent, which invisibly weakened the Generalissimo's Mansion's control over the Yunzhong Military Region, and showed a precursor to the entire collapse of this force.
The Yayunle Chamber of Commerce in Huadu is far away......
If Ji Ya is struggling for the country and the world in the north, and Ziyun and Zhuge Leng leave Huadu to join hands in the rivers and lakes, then Haole is to compose his wealth and life in this city of miracles.
Lang Siqi is sitting at the desk of Haole, handling all these things for him, maybe Haole is talented, but a lot of refinement work is cultivated by nurture, and it is impossible to control the entire Chamber of Commerce by relying on his own intelligence alone.
Now everyone is optimistic about the pair of Haole and Lang Siqi, and so is Huaduhou, although in the pursuit of his daughter, Haole's performance is completely simple, but Haole makes him unexpectedly relieved. This kid didn't give his daughter a lot of money, nor did he give her a jewel, but he gave her enough trust, and even participated in the operation of the Yayunle Chamber of Commerce together. There are not no shrewd and capable strong women in Huadu, and virtuous helpers of successful men also abound. But like Haole, there are really few people who don't treat the woman as a vase at the beginning and directly give her a chance to perform.
Huaduhou knows that with the collapse of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the value of his use is getting less and less, and now he can still support his children, but maybe in a year or two, he will be just a worthless bad old man.
Fortunately, I arranged my daughter's side properly, and I believe that even if he loses power, the child will not change face with his daughter, because they are not a simple interest relationship from the beginning.
The people of the Yayunle Chamber of Commerce are also accustomed to the existence of Lang Siqi, because they are not married yet, so everyone only regards her as the most senior manager, belonging to the one and a half between the owner and the chief manager. As for her orders, as long as they do not touch the core of the Chamber of Commerce, they can be executed.
Just then Trench Le came in from outside: "I'm back. β
Lang Siqi stopped the pen in his hand, got up and smiled, "How are things going?" said and walked to the side and poured a cup of tea for Haole.
Hao Le naturally took the tea: "He is willing to pay, but he doesn't pay directly." β
Lang Siqi seemed to have expected it: "Oh, how much is he willing to pay, and in what way?"
The two of them are talking about one of the four giants of Huadu, the ghost god and Bi Yan. He is not only the principal of Lanyi Society and Heping Qianzhuang, but also the president of the Huadu Chamber of Commerce, which is not an independent chamber of commerce like Yayunle, but a consortium of many chambers of commerce, and can be said to be the formulator of the rules of the Huadu business district.
Before, Ji Ya came to ask for help from Trench Le and took away a large amount of cash and grain, although the Yayunle Chamber of Commerce has reached a small scale, but after all, it can't independently support a prince to raise troops, and it is okay to maintain 10,000 people for a few months, but once Ji Ya unifies the Yunzhong Military Region, it will face tens of thousands of people and a county.
So Lang Siqi gave Haole an idea and went to find some sponsorship with Bi Yan. He Bi Yan is a senior in the shopping mall, and he is a smiling tiger, in order to be able to get money from the treasury, he can even run Lang Siqi's father into a flower marquis. Although he usually takes care of Haole a lot, Haole still subconsciously doesn't want to contact him.
And just like that, you have to go to him to ask for silver, and other people's money is not blown by the wind, how can it be borrowed from you for nothing? Maybe it depends on Lin Yue's sake, but isn't this a forced purchase and sale to offend people?
Lang Siqi said no, not only will he give silver, but he will be very happy to give a lot of silver. Although he has talent, he still doesn't know what the biggest business in the world is, not food, nor munitions, but his family and country.
He had contacts with Bi Yan and the princes of Chu, Yue, and Wu, and single-handedly contracted the business operations of these families, just like the craftsmen bought weapons on both sides during the Chu-Yue War, and Bi Yan did not mark the silver, otherwise the soldiers on both sides would find out that they were taking the military salary he issued.
Is the northwest very barren? It can be said that the entire Yunzhong Military Region is not rich, but the northwest also has countless treasures, such as rhubarb, licorice, snow lotus, cordyceps, saffron, and other medicinal materials, as well as various mineral deposits, gold and gold treasures, cattle and sheep skins, and so on. It's just that the perennial chaos has blocked the trade routes, and even those who have merchants can only wander in the north, and the goods that flow to Huadu are not only scarce in quantity, but also high in price. If there is an iron-fisted person who can stabilize the northwest, it is also excellent for the Huadu Chamber of Commerce.
So Lang Siqi asked Haole to borrow money boldly and with confidence, but after making a request, no matter what conditions the other party had, he didn't agree to it first, and said that he would come back to discuss.
Haole went to talk to He Biyan, and the other party was really interested, so he chatted with Haole all morning, and even invited him to have a meal before coming back.
Lang Siqi asked about the way he borrowed money from Bi Yan, and Hao Le replied: "President He is willing to contribute one million taels, but he will not lend it directly to me or my senior sister, he plans to call the other three of the four giants of Qihuadu, each of which will contribute another 300,000 taels, and our Yayunle will invest 100,000 taels to set up a 'Northwest Construction Money Village' with 2 million taels to fund senior sister in the form of loans." β
Lang Siqi thought for a while and muttered: "Qian Zhuang? interesting, in this case, his proposal should be more than just a loan." β
"Yes, what he means is to use the northwest to build a money village in the northwest to connect the northwest and Huadu, set up a branch in the two places, and all the money will help the senior sister through loans, and all the loans will be used to buy materials locally in Huadu. Because of the war, there are more and more nobles who fled to Huadu, they have empty assets, but there is no income in Huadu, if in the name of the master, through the Northwest Construction Money Village to issue 'Northwest Construction Bonds', I believe that they can absorb a large amount of idle assets in Huadu. If you can contact the border chiefs or khans who will only hide gold and silver in the treasure trove through the branch of the northwest, you can also absorb funds from the border people, and then purchase the specialties of the northwest, and revitalize the entire northwest business circle. β
He Bi Yan deliberately proposed Lin Yue, precisely because Lin Yue's ability was big enough and his reputation was loud enough. Among the nobles of the Great Zhou, it is much more reliable than Ji Ya, a mixed-race princess, so that it can not only strengthen the credit of bond issuance, but also send Lin Yue away. In fact, Lin Yue has a lot of pressure on and Bi Yan in Huadu, and they are also the Big Four in Huadu, whether it is the Enchantress Hua Yunfei or Hailong Yuan Lu, or the manufacturing tycoon Craftsman, everyone is in the rules of Huadu, even if they have the ability to make He Bi Yan hurt their muscles and bones, but they are not helpless to deal with Bi Yan, if they are weak in the business circle, they will swallow him, and if they are strong, they will cooperate with him.
But Lin Yue is different, he is a monk who is proud of the world, and he has a big enough reputation, except for three little apprentices, he is basically a lonely person, if he wants to make the flowers change the sky, basically no one can stop him, manpower is manpower after all, and it is impossible to compete with supernatural forces. Therefore, he and Bi Yan have always taken care of Haole, in order to let Lin Yue have a connection with the flowers and not make a fuss.
If this thing can really be done, Lin Yue is bound to help his apprentice stand firm in the northwest, can send away this great god, and can get benefits, and can also connect a new circle of interests openly. He was even thinking that in order to allow Ji Ya to gain a foothold in the northwest quickly, the first few loans could be low-interest or even interest-free.
After thinking about his thoughts for a while, Lang Siqi said: "It's not a bad thing, you go to the craftsman's door tonight and talk to Miss Kou, I'll go back and talk to my father, we have to make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise the senior sister will come to ask for help again." β
Now that Lang Siqi has naturally followed the trench to call Ji Ya her senior sister, everyone has no opinion. Haole nodded, after all, the strength of his own family is not as good as the alliance of various forces in Huadu, and between the opening and closing of the president's mouth is the starting capital of two million taels, and there will be a large amount of idle capital injection in the future, which is much more reliable than the Yayunle Chamber of Commerce to undertake alone.
......
In a flash, it was another month.
In the Manor of Anling Marquis in Yuanzhou, Lin Yue was lying on Ah Yun's lap and eating the fruit she plucked. Although she hinted several times that Lin Yue could stay with her, Lin Yue didn't have such an idea, which disappointed Ah Yun.
At this time, Wu Yanfeng broke in in a hurry: "Lord, the battle through the cloud pass is about to start!!"
Lin Yue immediately got up and asked, "The alliance of the princes has arrived?"
The princes have been in tandem for almost two months, and they have carried out small-scale attacks and defenses in the Cloud Pass before, and no one has suffered at present, both sides claim to be 500,000 troops, in fact, the princes' coalition army is in the early 300,000s. And the Marquis of Shu only had an army of 260,000, and he went out to defend the capital with 60,000, but only 200,000 people were fighting the enemy through the cloud pass.
Although the Marquis of Shu claims to be the king of Shu and serves the king as the emperor, the imperial edict has not yet been issued, and the princes will not recognize it, so the world still calls him the Marquis of Shu.
Although the Marquis of Shu seems to be weak, but the military order is unified and there is a strong city and Xiongguan, and the princes have their own plans, so Lin Yue is not optimistic about the so-called alliance of princes.
Seeing that Lin Yue had something important to discuss, Ah Yun got up and left, and Wu Yan continued: "My lord, this is your great opportunity, you can take the opportunity to let the imperial court issue an order, so that you have the right to act in the Yunzhong Military Region. β
Although the imperial court is controlled by the Marquis of Shu, he is still the lord of the Great Zhou, and the will of the king still has some effect, but the Marquis of Shu is now a lone alliance of princes, and he obviously has the heart to annex the Eight Desolations, so how can he tolerate another town of Haoqiang.
Lin Yue asked, "What if they don't agree?"
Wu Yan smiled confidently: " This is better, you are the former chief soldier of Yuanzhou, our business here is also effective, you can pull up a soldier at any time, and there is such a character as the girl of the shallot leaf rue around the lord, if the court does not agree, we will immediately take Yuanzhou, as a town of princes to respond to the princes' coalition, with your reputation must be welcomed by them, when the time comes, everyone will work together to destroy the Marquis of Shu, you propose to withdraw from the capital on the condition of the Yunzhong Military Region, all the princes compete for the interests of the Central Plains, and will not anger you for the northwest, and then set up a new king and then ask for the will, you are still the lord of the northwestγ β
Lin Yue thought about it in a deep voice, Wu Yan had always said that he would wait for the opportunity, but now that the opportunity has come, the alliance of the Marquis of Shu and the princes is evenly matched, and he is a sudden rise, no matter who he falls to, it is extremely unfavorable to the other party.
On the surface, this seems to be the case, but this is also the vision of Wu Yan, these secular military advisors, in Lin Yue's opinion, whether the Marquis of Shu can win or not depends entirely on Yushan's support. According to their previous theory of small countries and widows, they hope that the world will be disintegrated, rather than having a hegemon who is overwhelming. Since the Shu army occupied the capital, Yushan's power seems to have completely precipitated, and I don't know what to do quietly.
If Yushan feels that Shuhou has no use value, maybe it is really an opportunity. Lin Yue said: "Anyway, we are going to take action, you go to the army first, by the way, ask if there are any people who are willing to go together, I will go to the capital to see, maybe I can gain something." β
"Yes, lord!" Wu Yan's tone was full of excitement, it was finally his turn to show his skills, as for Lin Yue entering Beijing alone, he was not worried. Lin Yue has shown his advanced cultivation, maybe there are still people in the capital who can be his opponent, but there is really no one who can stop him from escaping.
