Chapter 543 - Making Money and Earning Fear

In the following days, Chu He practiced mercenaries during the day, and taught Dafeng to learn overlord marksmanship at night, the progress of the two was visible, after Chu He's most severe training, the entire temperament of these thousand mercenaries changed, and they became one, as long as they appeared anywhere in Warsaw City, everyone could recognize at a glance that this was the mercenaries of the Dafeng mercenary group.

To put it simply, these mercenaries have a temperament, a military temperament, or the military temperament from the urban era of Chu He.

Of course, with the change of this temperament, their strength is also changing, many of them have been stimulated to their potential, and their strength has greatly improved, and as they have gained benefits from it, these mercenaries have been more attentive when training.

Chu He was a little lazy, sitting in the pavilion drinking tea, Dafeng hurriedly walked in from the door, with a wave of his hand, followed by six female mercenaries who had consciously retreated.

Dafeng walked into the pavilion in a strong robe, with a look of indignation, and shouted at Chu He: "Chu He, I will train them to the death according to your training syllabus, but no, their strength is improving too slowly, and they can't be compared with your group of people at all, and many people already have a grudge against me." ”

Chu He retracted his feet, frowned, and said: "These people, there is no need to explain, they were all eliminated and driven out of the Dafeng mercenary camp, paid enough salaries, and still had resentment, helping them to be promoted is just to better serve the mercenary group in the future, not to owe them." ”

Yes, no mercenary group can guarantee that as long as they join, they can help them improve, like the promotion of mercenaries, they are all obtained on the iron-blooded battlefield, after a few escapes from death, these people should know how much it will be difficult to become stronger, Chu He gives them to them, they can get it, if they don't give it, do they still want to rob it, it's ridiculous.

Dafeng said with some reluctance: "Do you really want to drive it away, these people are good, and they can make our Dafeng mercenary group stronger." ”

Chu He shook his head and said: "No matter how powerful it is, if you can't obey the order, it will become a scourge in the future, those who betrayed at the beginning, Dafeng, don't you remember?"

When Dafeng heard this, his face turned cold, and he said, "Of course I remember that a few days ago, some of them wanted to come back, but I refused. ”

Chu He said: "Dafeng, you are actually not suitable to be a regiment leader, your ability is a little worse, I think, you should find a deputy regiment commander, the two of you can divide the labor, one inside and one outside, you take care of the outside affairs, I think it's pretty good, spicy, tough, barbaric-----"

"Fart, am I so bad?" Before Chu He's words could be finished, he was interrupted by the woman, and his face was already red.

Chu He laughed and said, "Actually, these words are to praise you, a woman, it is quite remarkable to be able to do this." ”

Dafeng said: "You can't hear me, which woman is like me, can she still get married, Chu He, I am really a little anxious now, I want to improve the overall strength of our Dafeng mercenary group as soon as possible, and then go to the mission, otherwise so many people are raised every day, even if there is more money, I can't stand it." ”

"Sharpen the knife and don't cut firewood, Dafeng doesn't need to worry, as long as all these people are trained, no matter how dangerous the task is, it won't be a big deal, and besides, I've walked around in the past few days and found a temporary source of money. ”

Dafeng was stunned for a moment, and asked happily: "What is it?" Our Dafeng mercenary group was so poor that rats were too lazy to come, what other financial resources do they have?"

Chu He smiled: "The weather is so hot, I think those rich people must have a great demand for ice----"

"This won't work. Before Chu He finished speaking, Dafeng had already said: "This business has already been done, Warsaw City is a hot furnace city, this season of the year is too hot to work, the demand for ice is indeed very large, there were several business groups in the past who wanted to do this kind of ice business, Chu He, do you know how far away from the nearest ice peak in Warsaw City, about more than 1,500 li, even if you use the fastest speed, it will take more than five days, the ice cubes are easy to melt, even if it is well preserved, when you return to Warsaw City, there is not much left, this is a loss-making transaction." ”

Chu He didn't continue, but just shouted towards the door: "Bring the water." ”

A female mercenary carried a wooden plate, brought a plate of water and put it on the table, Chu He waved his hand to let him retreat, and took out a bag from the ground, this bag contained saltpeter, which was still Chu He had nothing to do, accidentally discovered, and finally asked to know that there are two barren mountains behind the ancient castle, both of which belong to the Dafeng mercenary group, but there is no way to grow crops in this barren mountain, and it is used in the field training on weekdays, which is really not of much use, but Chu He found a large amount of saltpeter on this mountain.

Chu He grabbed a handful of saltpeter powder from the bag and sprinkled it in the water of the wooden basin, the wooden basin immediately changed, there was water vapor, and then slowly, the water began to cool down and become thicker and thicker, forming ice fragments, in Dafeng's stunned eyes, a basin of water turned out to be really ice, when she reached out to touch, the cold was overwhelming.

"What's going on, what's going on, Chu River, how can the water turn into ice?" Dafeng asked in shock.

Chu He put the bag in front of her, she grabbed a handful, put it between her nose and sniffed, and exclaimed, "It's a little pungent, it seems to be saltpeter powder." ”

Chu He nodded and said: "Yes, it is saltpeter powder, saltpeter powder can melt water and turn ice, and I found that there are a large number of saltpeter in the two barren mountains behind our ancient castle, which is enough for us to use." ”

It is precisely because of saltpeter that this barren mountain will not grow a single grass, and it will also cheapen the Dafeng mercenary group, otherwise something of a little value will not be let Dafeng get, but no one thought that this would be a treasure trove.

Dafeng stood up all of a sudden and shouted loudly: "Okay, great, I'll immediately send someone to deal with it secretly, if we can really make ice, then this hot season, we can make a lot of money." ”

Chu He still wanted to explain a few words, but looking at Dafeng's eager face, he didn't bother to say anything, anyway, she still had Tong Lao and Wang Lao by her side to help, some details of the problem, the two old men should consider it, anyway, this kind of business will not last long, it can make a fortune, and it will also reduce the financial pressure of the mercenary group.

Although Chu He gave a lot of things, but now the mercenary group has no income, and it is estimated that Dafeng is also anxious, and it is always comforting to have money to make.

Or really in a hurry, Dafeng moved quickly, on the grounds of training, sent three thousand mercenaries out to get saltpeter, and then the saltpeter piled up into a mountain, and in a small courtyard in the middle courtyard, there was a bluestone pool, which was all cleaned at this time, and then introduced clear water, sprinkled saltpeter, and then the next day, the whole water had formed a big ice cube.

The ice, after being divided, was sent to the ice cellar, and then in the afternoon, several shops on both sides of the castle entrance, one of the small shops, had hung a brand new sign, and there were only two words on the signboard: "Ice room." ”

On this hot day, the power of ice is too great, the opening of the ice room has attracted a lot of attention, after all, during this time, the Dafeng mercenary group has been in the limelight, Warsaw City, almost everyone knows, no one knows, unlike the quiet of the past, the current gate of the Dafeng mercenary group is full of many people.

These people are either martial artists who come to participate in the assessment and want to enter the Dafeng Mercenary Group, and there are also those sent by various mercenary groups to monitor every move of the Dafeng Mercenary Group, anyway, with the existence of Chu He, a king-level master, no one dares to despise the Dafeng Mercenary Group in Warsaw City, at least the Tianhu Mercenary Group next door, their people no longer dare to show off their strength at the gate of the Dafeng Mercenary Group.

"In such a hot weather, the Dafeng Mercenary Group actually has cold ice for sale, is it impossible?"

"How is it impossible, you look at the ice room, it is all high-grade cold ice, and the price is very cheap, it is really incomprehensible?"

"It's so fucking cool, I can't wait to stay in the ice room all day and not come out, it's too cool, buy it, buy it for Lao Tzu, buy it all back." ”

"Transporting ice from a cold place, but the cost is not small, the ice of the Dafeng Mercenary Group is sold so cheaply, won't it be a loss?"

How can it lose money, this is simply a business without capital, or no one thinks that people can actually make ice, or on this hot day, the opening of the ice room is just a day of transmission, the next day, the ice room has been surrounded by water, in this season, the consumption of ice is too great, even if those big families have money, there is no place to buy it.

"Song family, ten cars, the ice here, we have it all. ”

"Bullshit, what about the Song family, my Sima family wants it all, how much do you have in the store, how much do we want, all of them will be increased by ten percent, how about it, how much money is more than whom?"

Well, in fact, compared to such a bookless transaction, the price offered by Dafeng is not cheap, and ordinary civilians can't afford it, but for the family, money is not a thing at all, in this hot day, as long as there is ice to cool down, you can cool down when you sleep, no matter how high the price is, they are willing to buy it.

One pool is not enough, then dig one more pool, every three days, there will be a field training, three thousand mercenaries like ants moved to get saltpeter, all turned into ice, but no one thought that those ice, from saltpeter, but not overnight sneaking in, there are more and more, Dafeng doubled the manpower, and it is difficult to stop all the people.

Then I don't know what's going on, the ice-making pool was discovered, and there was a saying outside, saying that there was a piece of land in the Dafeng mercenary group, and there was a cold spring mouth, and all the water that came out would freeze, well, such a miraculous thing spread more and more, and finally it became true, which made Chu He cry and laugh.

If it was before, I am afraid that someone would have come to the door to rob this cold spring and rob the ancient castle station of the Dafeng mercenary group, and even heard that the Canadian Council was moved, and I couldn't wait to take back the ancient castle that was not eye-catching and thrown to the Dafeng mercenary group, but now, with the existence of a king-level master, the council does not dare to mess around openly even if it is moved.

Dafeng was excited at the same time, but also frightened, when there was no money to make before, she was afraid, but now that she has made money, she is even more afraid, it is really because there is too much money, the ice made by this is simply in short supply, in order to be able to pick up the goods in advance, these rich people, constantly increasing prices, seem to care about money at all.

This is simply a daily gold fight, and the income makes Dafeng frightened.

"Chu He, the six great families of Warsaw, have already sent people over to discuss, and they are willing to buy our ancient castle at ten times the price----"

Chu He waved his hand and said: "It's almost, anyway, it won't be long before the weather will turn cold, and there will be no need for ice at that time, there is no need to pit people and make enemies again, tell them, don't sell it, this is the base of the Dafeng mercenary group, how can you sell it?"

Dafeng's face was bitter, and he said: "But the pressure they gave was too great, in the past few days, there were more than 100 people who were stopped at night, and if this continues, we will all become frightened birds." ”

Chu He thought for a while and said, "I'll think about it again, Dafeng don't worry." ”
