Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if it provokes other forces, but if the black caravan offends the people of the Guanghua Army, and the common people want to deal with the black caravan, can they also help the black caravan suppress the common people? This is absolutely unjustifiable.

Moreover, the last one has some dangers. What Wang Yuyan is talking about is all the industries of the black caravan, and no one knows how many industries the black caravan has. In case the black caravans smuggled while opening shops, taverns, casinos, and so on in the Gwanghwa Army, the number of these commercial industries was too small, but if the number was large, it would be a waste of a lot of tax revenue!

Zhou Boluo pondered for a while, took a deep breath, and said very seriously: "Since Miss Wang said that I am a refreshing person, then I am not a mother-in-law. The three conditions put forward by Miss Wang are actually not excessive, and it is okay for me to agree, but there must be prerequisites. ”

"Oh, Zhou Xiaoxianggong, you said before that you don't know how to be a mother-in-law and mother, but now there is another premise, isn't this a mother-in-law and mother?" Wang Yuyan said with a smile.

"It's not called mother-in-law, it's just caution. If my mother-in-law and mother were mother-in-law, I wouldn't have said that I could agree to Miss Wang's three conditions. Zhou Bo said with a smile.

"Well, the slave family is willing to listen to what kind of premise Zhou Xiaoxianggong has. Wang Yuyan said indifferently, as if he was in the clouds, as if he was arrogant, and he seemed to be absent-minded.

Zhou Bo said: "Miss Wang's first condition is completely fine, no matter how many goods Miss Wang needs to store in the Guanghua Army, I will guarantee their safety." As for the second point, I am only responsible for ensuring that Miss Wang's caravan will keep you safe in the face of external threats, and if it is the incident provoked by Miss Wang's caravan, then I am not responsible. ”

Wang Yuyan smiled lightly and said, "Zhou Xiaoxianggong is really a person who is good at details." ”

Zhou Bo smiled and said: "Where is it, there is just a benchmark principle." I wonder if Miss Wang can agree to come down?"

Wang Yuyan said: "Since Zhou Xiaoxianggong has already said it, the slave family naturally has to obey. ”

Zhou Bo breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "As for the third condition, I can exempt Miss Wang from all taxes on the property that you personally manage. As for the fact that it only bears the name of Miss Wang, but it is someone else's property, it is not among them!!"

Wang Yuyan smiled, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Okay, the slave family also agrees." ”

Zhou Bo has a better and better impression of Wang Yuyan, it is rare to meet such a heroic woman in ancient times, he showed a sincere smile and said: "It seems that Miss Wang, you are really not allowed to shave your eyebrows, so bold, more courageous than men." ”

Wang Yuyan suddenly sneered and said: "Zhou Xiaoxianggong, if it weren't for the fact that you occupied the Guanghua Army, do you think the slave family would agree to these conditions? To put it bluntly, we are just using both sides, and if anyone makes the other party unable to get benefits, I am afraid that this cooperation will deteriorate." ”

Zhou Bo looked at Wang Yuyan, and there was a coolness in his heart, what a sharp little lady!

"As Miss Wang said, it is true, it is just a deal between you and me. But please rest assured, Miss Wang, I can do what Zhou Bo says, and I will never break my word. Zhou Bohui said with a serious face.

"That's the best, everyone knows it. Wang Yuyan's face was still cold, and the previous pure and beautiful appearance was swept away, revealing a big big sister.

She paused, and then said, "At the end of next month, does Zhou Envoy Jun have any goods to faint to the north?"

Zhou Bo shrugged his shoulders, looked helpless, and said: "Now that the Guanghua Army is poor, naturally there is no goods. And I didn't have time to go anywhere else to buy goods during this time. In this way, this time Miss Wang's caravan ran to the merchants, so I will come back with more goods from the north, and I will buy some goods from the north, and then resell them. ”

"In a word, the slave family will give Zhou Xiaoxianggong a discount for buying northern goods, and the slave family will not talk about anything with Zhou Xiaoxianggong anymore, anyway, the price given by the slave family is the lowest price of our caravan, and Zhou Xiaoxianggong will not buy it when the time comes. As for the deposit, the first time in order to show sincerity, the slave family will not accept the deposit, and the goods can be bought and sold on the spot. Wang Yuyan said unhurriedly, as if a strong woman was commanding her subordinates.

Zhou Bo looked at Wang Yuyan, thinking that such a beautiful and beautiful person as the other party should be a simple and beautiful character, but he didn't expect it to be so thunderous, much more powerful than Li Xiaoyu. However, he didn't pay much attention to these trivial matters, and now Wang Yuyan does not charge a deposit, and also promises to give himself a discount, which shows that the cooperation has been reached.

"In this case, thank you Miss Wang. I wish Miss Wang's caravan a smooth sailing this time. Zhou Bo said in a calm tone.

Wang Yuyan sighed softly, his expression returned to the weak and pure demeanor he had before, and said: "In the future, the caravan will have someone contact Zhou Xiaoxianggong, and Zhou Xiaoxianggong doesn't need to worry about it. It has been two days since the slave family came to this Guanghua army, and it is really a barren place, since the cooperation agreement has been negotiated, the slave family will leave for Xiangyang today. ”

Zhou Bo smiled and said, "Isn't that inconsiderate hospitality?"

Wang Yuyan smiled lukewarmly and said, "Has Zhou Xiaoxianggong ever entertained the slave family?"

Zhou Bo said again: "Since you say that, then you have to make amends to Miss Wang another day." ”

Wang Yuyan smiled lightly, then stood up, didn't say anything more, turned around and walked towards the second floor of the inn.

At this time, the one-eyed wolf came over and said to Zhou Bo in a somewhat cold tone: "Zhou Xianggong, are you satisfied now?

Zhou Bo arched his hand to the one-eyed wolf and said, "Thank you so much." However, I am sure that it will not be long before your caravan will no longer lose money, and it will definitely make more money than before. ”

"It's not up to you to decide, we eat this bowl of rice, relying on heaven and earth and relying on relationships, and many things are inaccurate. Since the girl in our family promised you, we have no choice but to do it, and now I only say one word to Zhou Xianggong, we are already sincere, and I hope Zhou Xianggong will not play any more tricks. The one-eyed wolf said without saying anything.

"You can rest assured at this point, I am by no means that kind of person, not to mention that this is completely harmful to others and not to themselves, who will do it?" Zhou Bo said.

After coming out of the Qing'an Inn, Zhou Bo and Li Xiaoyu returned to the Yamen. Although the cooperation with the black caravan has been reached, Li Xiaoyu is not happy at all. Zhou Bo knew that this little lady had a stubborn temper and couldn't stand the slightest embarrassment, so he didn't say anything.

After arriving at the Yamen, Zhou Bo asked Li Xiaoyu to find Li Xuzhong.

Li Xiaoyu thought that Zhou Bo would comfort herself a few words, she made those people in the black caravan laugh yesterday and today, she was not doing things for the Guanghua Army, she couldn't have not said a good word afterwards. When she saw that Zhou Bo ignored her, she suddenly stopped pinching her heart, snorted angrily, and then rushed out of the door.

But after a while, Li Xiaoyu still found Li Xuzhong.

Li Xuzhong was still helping Zhang Luo arrange in the county school, but after being called by Li Xiaoyu, there was still a lot of dust on his body, sweating profusely, and looking dirty.

Li Xiaoyu led Li Xuzhong to the front of the lobby, didn't say a word, turned around and was about to leave.

Zhou Bo immediately shouted, "Xiaoyu, what are you doing?"

Li Xiaoyu pursed his lips and said unhappily: "I have nothing to do with it, I have to go back and sign the title deed!"

Li Xuzhong suddenly scratched his head, and this eldest lady didn't know who he was provoked again! But he was a prescient person, so of course he wouldn't intervene at this time.

Zhou Bo smiled and said, "Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you, who made you angry?"

Li Xiaoyu turned his head, looked at Zhou Bo and snorted and said, "Those people in the black caravan are so bad, I have suffered so much anger, Zhou Yuanjun, you don't comfort me at all." ”

Zhou Bo sighed and said, "Xiaoyu, look at you, the child has a temper again, isn't there? What is there to be angry about? You should think so, the black caravan has already compromised with us, and from now on, we must rely on the territory of our Guanghua Army to run the business." As an official of the Guanghua Army, they don't want to look at your face in the future, right?"

Li Xiaoyu was stunned, and felt that what Zhou Bo said was very reasonable, and when the black caravan came to the Guanghua Army territory to do business, she would have a chance to take revenge! Thinking of this, she was in a better mood and walked back to the lobby slowly.

Zhou Bo immediately beckoned Li Xiaoyu and Li Xuzhong to sit down, he first briefly described the success of the black caravan's cooperation to Li Xuzhong, and then said:

"Although the successful cooperation with the black caravan means that our Guanghua Army will have a lot of financial revenue. It's just that the black caravan runs for a long time, and it may take several months to go back and forth. What's more, the black caravan is only responsible for helping us buy and sell on our behalf, and it is naturally good if we have goods for them to take to the north to sell, but if the black caravan brings back the goods from the north, then we are also responsible for selling them ourselves. ”

Li Xuzhong and Li Xiaoyu both listened carefully to Zhou Bo's words. Li Xiaoyu suddenly said: "So, we also need to form our own caravan now, responsible for reselling the goods brought back by the black caravan from the north to other places in the south of the Yangtze River?"

Zhou Bo nodded and said, "That's right." Although this matter is not too urgent, the preliminary preparation must be full. Li Xuzhong, Li Xiaoyu, both of you are locals, and you naturally know the situation of some local vendors best, so you should contact some people with business experience during this time. ”

Li Xuzhong asked: "Zhou Yuanjun, since it will take more than half a year for the black caravan to run the business, let's contact the merchant now, isn't it too early?"

Zhou Bo smiled and said, "It's still early? I can tell you, it's not early at all." Even though we have now found merchants who can help us sell goods, you must know that we are buying and selling goods from the north, and we are not allowed to sell them openly in the market. Therefore, the person who sells it must have connections and channels, and know the rules and regulations. Therefore, immediately gather the businessmen and ask them to hurry up and get through the relationship. ”

Li Xuzhong suddenly realized, and said again and again: "I see. ”

Li Xiaoyu nodded and said, "Well, I must do my best." ”

Zhou Bo said again: "After summoning the merchants, Xiaoyu, your Civil Affairs Department will set up an official business name in the name of the government, and you can just take the name of the business name yourself." Then this official business will be under the jurisdiction of your civil affairs department, and if it grows in scale in the future, you can set up a trade department, and hire another official to manage it!!"

Li Xiaoyu was excited, there were only a few people in his Civil Affairs Department, but now there is another business name to govern, so his power is getting bigger and bigger. She nodded again and again and said, "I understand, I'll come up with a nice business name tomorrow!"

Zhou Bo continued: "In addition to this matter, there are two other things to arrange. The first is iron ore mining, and the second is that I want to set up a military academy in the barracks outside the city. ”

"Military Academy, what is this?" Li Xiaoyu's eyes widened, and he looked puzzled.

"Is the military academy an academy for learning marching and fighting and arranging formations to defend against the enemy?" Li Xuzhong asked cautiously after some thought.

Zhou Bo nodded with a smile and said, "Li Xuzhong, what you said is right, that's exactly the case. ”

Li Xiaoyu was immediately surprised: "However, where did you come from to ask a teacher to teach you to learn this military knowledge? Moreover, now that marching and fighting and arranging formations to resist the enemy are all the experience accumulated by the soldiers themselves on the battlefield, everyone is very different, how should we train our subordinates?"

Zhou Bo said "um" and said, "Xiaoyu, what you said is good, it will indeed be a little difficult. However, the military academy I want to set up is only responsible for teaching some basic military arts, mainly for training middle and lower-ranking officers in the army, but for training senior generals. As for the high-ranking generals, as you said, Xiaoyu, they can only be tempered according to the experience that everyone has accumulated on the battlefield. ”

Li Xiaoyu was slightly happy when he heard Zhou Bo praising him, so he said again: "Zhou Yuanjun, when you said that you want to train middle and lower-level officers and only teach the basic art of war, do you want to teach them to learn the Art of War?"

Zhou Bo smiled and said, "You also know the Art of War?"

Ancient people were not as developed as communication education in the 21st century, but they didn't know the names of any books, especially when Li Xiaoyu was still a girl, it was really a miracle to know "The Art of War". Even though Li Xiaoyu's father is an old master and has a lot of books at home, ancient military books are not as readable as famous books in the 21st century, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get their hands on them.

Li Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Of course I know, my uncle used to be a general, and he had the book "Sun Tzu's Art of War" at home, and then the uncle went to the war, and all the books in his house were moved to my house. ”

"And what about your uncle now?" Zhou Bo asked.

"Uh...... I don't know, I haven't heard from me for more than ten years, and I don't know how it's going now. Li Xiaoyu said with some sadness.

"I see. That's fine, the military academy just needs "The Art of War", so please donate this book. Zhou Bo said.

Li Xiaoyu said: "Okay, but I can't guarantee that this book is still there." ”

"The Art of War" is known as one of the three major books on the art of war in the world, even though it is still studied by senior military academies in the 21st century. Of course, Zhou Bo did not expect the military academy he established to cultivate talents who were proficient in the "Art of War", as long as he could understand the "Art of War" one or two.
