Chapter 1397: Selling Materials (2)

"Then why do they say that? Isn't it uneasy and kind? Zhou Wen asked, did he think that the two majors would kindly remind everyone. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Dio smiled: "They are indeed kind, you must know that in foreign countries, no one will care how many servant soldiers you have, but in China, armed soldiers who have more than the number of personal guards are rebels and want to raid their homes and exterminate their clans." ”

"Those two majors are reminding us that it's best to have only one hundred or three sets of weapons, otherwise the adults will be in trouble."

"Ah, there is such a rule? What about the other minions? Zhou Wen, Sun Jie, and Zhao Hu were all stunned, they never knew that the empire had such rules.

Dio said with a relaxed expression: "It's very simple, just explain to the outside world that they are slaves' entourage, after all, slaves are private property, and Huai will care how many rich people you take out?" ”

"Besides, the status of a servant soldier is just an armed slave, and they are all the same."

Hearing this, everyone was relieved, anyway, slaves are just a name, and it is impossible for outsiders to know that adults don't regard them as slaves at all.

As for the extra weapons, everyone doesn't care, Xianjie's words express everyone's thoughts: "Those weapons can be thrown away and sold, anyway, after handing in the original inventory weapons of the Fifth Brigade, what we have now are all rags captured on the grassland, and there are not many good ones at all." ”

After Dio finished saying his opinion, he asked Zhao Hu for instructions: "My lord, what do you think about it?" ”

Although I know that everyone will definitely agree with my opinion, I have to ask for instructions, and it is a taboo to be a subordinate.

Zhao Hu nodded and said: "Each person will leave two mounts and about two months of grain and grass, and one hundred and three sets of sabers and bows and arrows for weapons, and sell the rest, and this matter will be left to you." ”

"Yes, my subordinates will definitely sell this batch of materials at the best price."

After Dio received the order, he immediately began to assign tasks: "Sun Jie, you take someone to the city to inquire about who needs our supplies nearby, and automatically inquire about information every place in the future, after all, we can't just sell in one place, and one place alone can't absorb so many of our materials." ”

"Zhou Wen, you take someone to pick two of the best war horses for each of us to stay, and I will be responsible for counting the materials."

Hearing Dio's departure, Zhou Wen pulled Liu Bin and left.

Sun Jie was also busy immediately, and the forgotten Locke and Luo Fei could only follow Zhao Hu as a guard like the black wolf.

In this way, Zhao Hu, the ticket person, began to sell materials while walking.

Among Zhao Hu's batch of materials, the war horses are the best to sell, these war horses carefully selected from hundreds of thousands of horses, the fools can see that the imperial military horses are simply worlds apart from them.

Dio only slightly revealed his intention to sell the war horse, and the local nobles, merchants, and military officers rushed to buy it, and the price of a hundred gold coins a horse was not countered at all, and looking at the looks of these buyers, it was as if the price was a white inspection.

If it hadn't been for the early indication that those two horses were gifts to the marshal, and if it weren't for the fact that there were no prominent nobles in these border provinces, these twenty horses would have been forcibly bought by the magnates long ago.

Seeing the excitement of these buyers, Dio knew how much gold money those smugglers who had prominent status and smuggled back and forth between the steppe and the empire, and even regretted that his offer was too low, but now that the price had been shouted, changing his words was tantamount to slapping himself, so he could only grit his teeth and admit it.

When the local garrison got the news and came to the door, most of the more than 60 war horses that were taken out for sale were long gone, and the local garrison originally wanted to buy all the remaining more than 2,000 war horses in one go, but Dio refused.

First, the military's procurement personnel not only offer low prices, but also ask for kickbacks, and second, there are a large number of powerful people who have rushed to the news, waiting to buy, and it is better to offend the military procurement personnel than to offend so many powerful people, after all, they are only temporary guest businessmen.

Most of the people who snapped up the war horses were officers and nobles, and the people who snapped up the giant carriages were all merchants, and the prices of these carriages were a little more expensive than the war horses, one sold for one hundred and five gold coins, but Dio was very unhappy with this price, because in the prairie, the price of this carriage was definitely several times more expensive than the war horse, and he didn't expect this carriage to be so worthless in the empire.

And the third value is the furs that were originally bought by the first man, but Dio didn't care about it, and was going to sell them all at once to the merchants.

However, Zhou Wenna has completely belonged to the nature of women, and with the ability to surprise men, he easily divided the fur into three, six, nine and so on, except for leaving a few super furs to prepare as gifts, the others are all sold according to the grade, and the gold coins obtained are not known how many times higher.

In this regard, Dio has only the upper hand.

As for those surplus weapons, there is really no way to do it, and it is completely sold to a weapon shop at a low price like scrap metal, which is equivalent to making a transaction of pocket money.

Among these materials, the most worthless, and the one that cannot be sold at all is grain and grass.

In fact, it's not that it can't be sold, but the price is equal to half selling and half giving away, not even one-third of the market price, and Diou, who is reluctant to be so cheap, has to leave ten carriages to carry his people for two months, and the rest is all for nothing.

Anyway, it's not worth much, so it's better to expand the popularity of adults.

Sure enough, as Dio thought, most of the poor people in Vincy knew that there was a philanthropist named Zhao Hu.

Zhao Hu's sales of materials all the way, of course, reached the ears of the generals who knew her in the Wenxi Provincial Garrison Division, including the commander of the First Brigade, who smiled indifferently.

They don't care like this, first, they don't think that Zhao Hu's batch of materials can be exchanged for how many gold coins, and second, gold coins are not what they general-level officers are pursuing at all.

In this way, Zhao Hu and his entourage sold materials everywhere without any hindrance, and when they left Wenxi Province, Zhao Hu's ticket was like heaven and earth compared to leaving the barracks.

With ten carriages and 1,500 horses, Zhao Hu and his entourage, walking on land, not only will no longer attract attention, but also the speed is much faster.

On the way, Dio secretly told Zhao Hu a number: 756,710 gold coins. That's enough money to fill a huge wagon.

Hearing this number, even Zhao Hu, who had owned a large amount of gold coins, was also taken aback, just such a simple sale of materials, he got a month's military salary equal to a regular division, is business really so profitable?

Zhao Hu kept in mind that business could obtain a large amount of funds, and Zhao Hu, who had been the logistics chief of the army for more than half a year and managed the expenses of various trivial affairs in daily life, did not have a sense of money as before.

Even a saint, as long as he serves as a grassroots logistics chief for a period of time, he will also understand the importance of money.

Zhao Hu, who understands this, also understands that he doesn't know anything about the means of capital operation and investment, although Dio seems to know a little about capital investment, but he is better than himself, so Zhao Hu did not hesitate to directly hand over so many gold coins to Dio for management, anyway, if he wants money, he will just take it with Dio.

Dio, who accepted the order, did not shirk, he had already positioned himself as Lord Zhao Hu's housekeeper, and it was his task to help the Lord manage assets.

Zhao Hu's ticket took a cart of gold coins and quickly left the boundary of Wenxi Province, and then with the greatly slimmed down team and the certificate issued by the lieutenant general division commander, Zhao Hu's group of people could finally enter the city to stay.

However, Zhao Hu still attracted the attention of the world, think of a small major, with one hundred and thirty guards and nearly six hundred followers, not only everyone has two tall horses, but also ten huge horses to carry personal belongings, and what is more advantageous is that he directly charters the best and largest hotel accommodation in the city, if you are a land snake, what would you think of this major?

Therefore, the powerful people who came to the door in an endless stream made Zhao Hu look haggard.

And Dio, in the busyness of ushering in the send-off, wanted to slap himself, who told him to propose to go to the city to stay in order to sympathize with his own adults?

Why remind everyone that they don't have to care about money at all, so that everyone decides to go to the city?

Knowing that the adult is a subordinate of the shirt, it is absolutely impossible for him to live in a luxury hotel, and other people can find a place to nest casually, this is not a trouble that he found, who else can find it?

Although Zhao Hu has repeatedly said that he has no prominent status, the magnates do not believe that a major with no background can bring so many people into Beijing to wait for the canonization of the territory so ostentatiously? "You must know that even if the most oily and watery major officer is in the territory, the annual income is not enough for him to pay for a night's accommodation."

Because of such a misunderstanding, it wasn't until Zhao Hu looked tired and took out the reasons that he was tired from the journey and the time was pressing, that he shirked the banquet invitation of the magnates.

When night fell, everyone could finally take a breath, and Dior, who was already slumped in the chair, said guiltily to Zhao Hu, who was pinching his eyebrows: "My lord, I'm sorry, I didn't expect to attract so many people." ”

The black wolf, who had been hiding and had not come out to breathe until now, couldn't help but snort at Dio to express his dissatisfaction.

Zhao Hu shook his head and smiled helplessly: "It's not your fault, I asked to charter the hotel." ”
