Section 51 Knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger
After 30 years of life, it is the first time I have heard people praise him as a talent. Although the current situation is quite dangerous, the sentence "You are a talent" is still a little heart-pounding.
But Guan Cheng on the side didn't give Duan Rong any face, and directly pointed at him to disdain the Taoist lord, what kind of talent is this kind of bad goods. ”
"Zifeng, you can't say that." Cai Ji said and summoned everyone together, "There is a way that everyone has their own strengths, and it was Duan Cao Peng's high remarks just now that made this government think of a new way of wealth." ”
"Could it be that Fu Jun really plans to sell copper coins to Samhan?" Tai Shici, who had not participated in the discussion, frowned and asked. Tai Shici, who had been in Liaodong for a while, also knew that although the Sanhan people were good at forging, they had always used the five-baht coin of the Han Dynasty because of their lack of copper. If he acted like Duan Rong mentioned before, he would really be able to buy a large number of supplies from the Sanhan people. Just exchanging goods with the Yiren with a small amount of money will damage the prestige of the Han Dynasty. Thinking of Cai Ji asking Guan Cheng and others to rob the Sanhan tribute ship before, Tai Shici always felt that Cai Ji was deliberately targeting Sanhan.
In Cai Ji's opinion, since the ship has been robbed, there is no need to worry too much about things like face. How to accumulate wealth in the shortest possible time is the most important problem for her to consider at the moment. With such thoughts, Cai Ji nodded happily at Tai Shi Ci, "Brother Ziyi didn't say it, this mansion does have this intention." Not only that, but the government also plans to find the first business to do in the country of Gayage. ”
"What! Gaya! ”
Hearing Cai Ji's decision, this time even Guan Cheng and Zhang Qing were stunned and exclaimed. Guan Cheng, who directly commanded the robbery of the tribute ship, reminded Cai Ji even more humbly, "My lord, we just robbed the tribute ship of the Gaya Kingdom. How can I go to Gaya to do business again? ”
"yes. The little lord is a matter of importance. Don't act recklessly because of petty gains. Zhang Qing also followed and persuaded him. In Zhang Qing's opinion, Cai Ji's command of the pirates to rob the tribute ship was enough for the sword to go sideways. If you go to Gaya to do business again, it will be really arrogant and almost crazy!
However, in the face of everyone's unanimous opposition, Cai Ji did not waver. Maybe selling copper coins was the inspiration Duan Rong gave just now, but picking Gayakubu as the first sea transaction partner was something she had already calculated. Therefore, at this time, Cai Ji gave up his hand and confidently analyzed to everyone, "Gentlemen Mingjian, it is precisely because the tribute ship of the Gaya Kingdom has been robbed by our army, so the Gaya Kingdom will not be able to exchange tribute this year. If Dongnae sent merchant ships to trade at this moment, wouldn't it just solve the urgent need of the Gaya. On the other hand, the other three Han city-states and the four Han counties all have tributary treaties, and Dongrae's rash transaction may not be recognized by the other party. ”
"That being said, we have robbed the ship of the Gaya Kingdom after all. Running to do business now is not a self-defeating net. Zhang Qing frowned and shook his head.
"No, no. At the moment, the Gayasa don't know that we robbed the tribute ship, no, the Gayas, they don't even know that the ship was robbed. After all, the sea route is dangerous, and it is not surprising that one or two sea ships sink in the face of strong winds and waves. When Cai Ji said this, he looked around at the four people present, and said with a slight smile Of course, this is just speculation in this mansion. After all, going to Gaya is a risk. It's up to you to see if you dare to bet on this. ”
"Dare! Why don't you dare to make a lot of money. Lord, let the last general and his brothers go to Gayage. "The light man of the single body took the head and hugged his fist and asked for his life. In his opinion, the end of the robbery of the Donglai Navy was very clean, and it was impossible for the Gayagar Kingdom to get the news. After listening to Cai Ji's reasoned and well-founded analysis, Guan Cheng felt that this was indeed a good deal with no losses.
Compared with the eager Guan Cheng, Tai Shici and Zhang Qing are much older and more stable. However, although the two of them did not nod in agreement, they did not continue to object. Seeing this, Cai Ji knew that Tai Shici and Zhang Qing were actually a little excited, and now they just lacked a fire. Thinking of this, even if Cai Ji opened the shabu to Guan Cheng, you didn't look like an envoy. If you lead a team to the country of Gaya, the people of Gaya will have to be attacked by pirates. ”
When Guan Chengben Cai Ji said this, he couldn't help touching his chin full of scumbags and smiled embarrassedly, "Hehe, the lord didn't say it." The last general is a pirate. ”
"Therefore, the government must send a dignified person who is well versed in business as a righteous envoy to lead the caravan." When Cai Ji said this, he turned his gaze to Duan Rong to the side.
Duan Rong, who was originally shrunk in the corner, watched his nose and nose, and saw Cai Ji's gaze, and couldn't help but secretly complain. I thought to myself, why did I talk so cheaply just now, and why did I go to Sanhan to sell copper coins. This is good, it seems that not only do you have to help this girl sell the stolen goods, but also have to go to Gaya to sell copper coins for her. And listen to what the pirate said, it was the tribute ship of the Gaya country that the Dongnae naval army robbed this time. Well, the front foot robbed other people's boats, and the back foot went to other people's territory to make money. This Xiao Cai Fujun is really more of a bandit than a bandit, and more of a profiteer than a profiteer. However, Duan Rong also admitted in his heart that Cai Ji's analysis just now was still very accurate. Unless there is ironclad evidence in Gaya to prove that it was the Dongnae naval army that robbed the tribute ships, the other party really would not refuse to trade with Dongnae.
Just as the so-called capital will take risks if it has 50 percent profits, if it has 100 percent profits, it will dare to trample on the laws of the world, and if it has 300 percent profits, it will dare to commit any crime, even at the risk of being hanged. Although Marx said this more than 1,600 years later, human greed is the same at all times. Therefore, even if he knew that it was dangerous to go to Gaya Kingdom, Duan Rong was actually a little ready to move at this time.
Just when Duan Rong was conflicted in his heart, Cai Ji took a step ahead of him and asked Duan Cao Peng, this is a big deal, who do you think can take on this big responsibility? ”
As soon as Cai Ji said this, the eyes of Guan Cheng, Tai Shici and others all focused on Duan Rong. Sure enough, Wufu's gaze was much more powerful than that of a girl like Cai Ji, Duan Rong subconsciously touched the skin that had just been in contact with the blade, and finally gritted his teeth and clenched his fists and agreed, "Rong is willing to give it a try." ”
"Duan Cao Peng, this matter is quite dangerous." Cai Ji reminded with a pretended hesitation.
"The prince also said that the Gayajun did not know that it was the Dongnae naval army that robbed the tribute ship. Even if the Gayas, what if they are gone. We don't admit it. Duan Rong responded confidently.
Duan Rong's posture that I am the Heavenly Empire, and you can do anything to the barbarians, made Cai Ji look quite satisfied. So she had to ask Duan Rongtan inch by inch, "I don't know if Duan Cao Peng has a sea boat on hand?" After all, the Dongnae Navy had robbed at sea, and it was inconvenient to go to Samhan as a caravan. ”
Duan Rong saw that Cai Ji wanted both people and boats, although he had a feeling of being squeezed to death, but after thinking about it, it was not a good thing to use the boat to run the business. As far as the current situation is concerned, at least Duan Rong would not dare to board the Donglai Naval Army warship. Whoever is next to the black-faced man with a fierce face will cut off his head when he is unhappy. Therefore, Duan Rong readily agreed that Dao Rong had two sea ships available for dispatch. I don't know if it's enough? ”
"Gaya is a small country, and I can't trade much goods at one time. Two sea vessels are sufficient. Cai Ji nodded with satisfaction.
Seeing that Cai Ji and Duan Rong had already finalized the matter of going to sea and trading with the Gaya, Tai Shici still frowned and asked Cai Ji if the Daofu Jun planned to use the copper coins hoarded in the county treasury to trade with the Gaya? ”
"Nope. Anyway, the money in the treasury is just a rusty spot. It's better to ship it to Samhan for some food. Cai Ji said and glanced at Duan Rong meaningfully. The latter immediately bowed his head weakly.
"Keci heard that most of the copper coins hoarded in the treasury were low-quality small coins. Would the people of Gaya really take such a small amount of money? Tai Shi Ci asked worriedly.
"Brother Ziyi is too worried. The government only sells copper coins, not uses them to buy goods from Gaya at face value. As for whether the Gaya Kingdom bought these copper coins directly as currency or returned to the furnace to recreate them, it is none of the matter of the government. Cai Ji spread his hands and said innocently. Of course, deep down, she still hoped that those city-states in Sanhan could directly use the currency of the Han Dynasty, which would help Donglai control its economy in the future.
However, Tai Shi Ci heard that Cai Ji said that he would not deceive the Sanhan people with a small amount of money, so he nodded reassuringly and did not raise any objections. In fact, Tai Shici, who is the lieutenant of the county capital, also hopes that the county government can store more grain and grass for the expansion of the army in the future. And Duan Rong, who lowered his head, almost gave Cai Ji a thumbs up after listening to Cai Ji's explanation. The idea of using copper coins as a commodity trade was a way for Duan Rong to come up with for a long time. He had also mentioned this matter to his father Duan Kui before, but he never wanted to be directly refuted by his father. Obviously, Duan Kui, like the late Cai Taishou, was a little reluctant to put those copper coins in the treasury.
Thinking of his father's previous reaction, Duan Rong couldn't help but say to Cai Ji with some concern, "Fujun, it's not a problem to get off the boat and people right now. But it is not easy to transfer a large amount of copper money out of the warehouse. ”
"What's so difficult about this, wouldn't it be enough to directly order the formation of a caravan to go to sea." Cai Ji said disapprovingly.
Duan Rong saw that Cai Ji didn't understand what he meant, so he further explained, "Fu Jun doesn't know anything. My father and Guan Juncheng were more conservative, and Rong was afraid that they would not allocate a large amount of copper money for us to go to Samhan to buy goods. ”
"I see. Duan Cao Peng can rest assured that you only need to arrange the sea ships and manpower. As for other matters, the government has its own arrangements. Cai Ji nodded confidently to reassure Duan Rongdao.
If it were in the past, Duan Rong would never have been able to settle the stubborn old man in his family. But after tonight's experience, Duan Rong seems to have developed a sense of trust in Cai Ji psychologically. So at this time, he didn't say a word and gave up his hand. ”
Cai Ji saw that Duan Rong finally had the consciousness of a partner, so he asked him to discuss with Guan Cheng and others about the issue of escorting the sea in the future. In this way, it was not until the ugly time that someone drove Duan Rong back to the city.
And Duan Rong got out of the water village and got into the carriage that Cai Ji had prepared for him in advance, only to find that the clothes on his back had inadvertently been soaked with sweat. Thinking of his previous experiences in the big tent, Duan Rong was really scared and excited. What I'm afraid of is that as long as I am careless just now, my head may fall to the ground. I was thrilled that in the end, not only did I return the whole body, but it was a big deal that I had never thought of. However, what shocked Duan Rong the most was Cai Ji's amazing appearance tonight.
To be honest, Cai Ji has always been a puppet in Duan Rong's eyes. There was a time when Rong even sympathized with this little Cai Fujun. After all, at her age, she has reached the age where ordinary people can talk about marriage, but now she is wasting her youth with the false name of being too guarded. However, after this night's fright, Cai Ji's image in Duan Rong's heart has changed dramatically.
Hijacking ships, selling stolen goods, and kidnapping tickets, where are these things done by an orphan girl in her teens. But that little Cai Fujun did it one by one without any scruples. Not only that, but what she did was supported by a group of martial artists. Thinking of Tai Shici and the others standing behind Cai Ji, Duan Rong felt that the night wind of July was blowing on his neck with a sharp blade-like chill. In today's troubled times, what is the most important? Money? Right? Neither. In this troubled world, it is the most real to have soldiers in your hands! As long as there are soldiers, money and power are at your fingertips. On the contrary, without soldiers in hand, money and power will become in the pockets of others at any time.
Judging from tonight's posture, Duan Rong roughly estimated that Cai Ji would be able to mobilize at least seventy percent of Donglai's troops, including the navy. In contrast, the troops that the Duan family could control were only Zhuang Ding in Zhuangzi and the 1,000 men and horses left by Chen Duwei before. However, considering that Chen Duwei's old department was not strong, and he was a mother with milk. So if something really happens, these old soldiers can't be counted on.
Something big? Something big will happen?! Duan Rong was taken aback by the thought that suddenly popped up. But he had to think about the possibility of his father Duan Kui and Xiao Cai Fujun turning their faces. After all, judging from Cai Ji's appearance tonight, this woman is definitely not a puppet person. If this happens, what should be done? Do you want to tell your father about tonight? Or do you choose to join forces with Cai Ji?
And while Duan Rong was sitting in the car and thinking nonsense, Cai Ji was also discussing Duan Rong's expression just now with Tai Shici and others in the big tent of the water village. Obviously, although Duan Rong and Cai Ji have reached a consensus, in the eyes of Zhang Qing and others, this Duan family man is still an unreliable person. No, Zhang Qing was the first to say to Cai Ji, "Little lord, you shouldn't have talked so much with Duan Rong just now. ”
"Governor Zhang thinks Duan Rong will tell his father about tonight's incident?" Cai Ji asked rhetorically with his back hand.
Zhang Qing nodded wordlessly, indicating that he was very worried about this matter. Tai Shici on the side also looked solemn. As for Guan Cheng, seeing that both of them were not at ease with Duan Rong, they also sank their faces, or they would stop the kid surnamed Duan. ”
However, Cai Ji waved his hand to stop Guan Cheng, and then looked up at the white belly that was slightly exposed in the sky, and said leisurely, Now it depends on Duan Rong's own choice. However, I think it's not a good thing to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger sometimes. ”
