Lee Kuan Yew, the prefect of Jinyang, stood in the lobby of the prefect's yamen with a disdainful face, looking at the three baskets of instant noodles, "A group of mud-legged people, toasting without eating and drinking, without giving some color, will not be obedient." Chu Guo was in trouble, everyone was still thinking about themselves, and they didn't know how to take the initiative to contribute. ”

Under the hall, Huang Daya and others hurriedly nodded yes, and the personal master on the side said: "The master is right, it's really a group of ignorant mud legs, the country is broken, how can the family still exist." ”

Only a few conscientious hunters who were born in commoners secretly thought in their hearts: Speaking of money and food, the prefect has a lot of money in your family, thousands of acres of fertile land, and I haven't seen you take the initiative to donate a grain of rice.

"Okay, put away these noodles, and the official will enter the palace tomorrow. You and others paid close attention to the grain merchants in the market, collected all their grain, and raised grain and grass for the army as soon as possible, so as to regain the lost territory as soon as possible. Lee Kuan Yew commanded.

It turned out that the court officials of the Chu State had made a decision, that is, to gather the troops gathered from all over the country and send them to the north to fight against the Qi and Jin countries. Even if they fail to recover all the country, they must fight so that the two countries do not dare to invade again.

The 50,000 army of the Chu State needs not a small amount of grain and grass, plus the Chu State has been supporting the front line, consuming a large amount of money and grain, and the shortage is huge. The Emperor of Chu had to ask the ministers to come up with an idea of deciding on grain and grass, and the ministers would not harm their own interests.

The price of grain in Jinyang City was relatively stable, and few homeless people starved to death, so the ministers of the family who did not want to contribute money and effort made the decision to hit the heads of the grain merchants and farmers among the people. No one will care at all, the reason why there is no major riot of displaced people in Jinyang City is because of the supply of low-cost and limited noodles at the Meiweixuan Noodle Restaurant, as well as the strategy of exchanging clover for food and providing food at a low price in Du Le's restaurant. Although these grains are limited, they are constantly supplied, but they are all brought by Du Le from another world.

In this case, the representatives of the big families in the imperial court, the big officials simply and rudely believed that it was precisely because of the abundance of grain among the people that the grain hoarded in their homes could not be sold at a high price. Not many people are concerned about the turmoil in this country for nearly half a year, large tracts of arable land in the north have fallen into enemy countries, the total amount of grain in the country has become smaller and smaller, and new grain will not be harvested until next year.

What the court of Chu thinks, Du Le doesn't care, but it can't be tolerated if he takes my property so nakedly.

Düle's response was simple. I am not short of money, and I do not rely on the government of your Chu State. Big deal, I'm closing the store and closing it! Anyway, the business of Fuyong City has been on track, and there are a lot of gold coins that have been earned recently, and there is no shortage of gold coins now. Not only will the noodle restaurant be closed, but the restaurant in Yan Fu will also stop providing low-cost grain and stop buying clover. Anyway, I have a mountain villa, and there is no shortage of clovers on the other side of the mountain, so I hired people to go into the mountains to collect them. All the restaurants have raised their prices, which is in line with the market.

Not only that, in order to reflect the so-called revenge, Du Le also asked Yan Fu to secretly find people, spread the government's plan to seize grain, and induce the displaced people to attack the grain merchants, and even the government. Let the Emperor of Chu sitting in the Golden Palace feel the power of the troubled times.

asked someone to send a letter to Zhao Quan, Xiao Duocai didn't have to go back to the noodle shop, and together with the housekeeper, moved most of the people in the manor to the newly bought mountain land and established a new manor. Taking advantage of the increasingly chaotic Chu State, he secretly recruited displaced people, trained young and strong, and slowly increased the strength of Du Fu. The industry in Jinyang City is on the surface, and Du Le is ready to give up gradually.

The day after the noodle shop was searched, rumors began to circulate in Jinyang City that the government wanted to take food and prevent the displaced people from living. At first, no one believed it, but when more and more private grain merchants sold their grain to the government because of the low price of grain and became military rations, while the grain merchants with a housekeeping background sold grain at a higher and higher price, more and more people could not buy food, and the porridge shacks for the relief of the displaced people could no longer see a grain of rice, and the rumors became credible facts. …,

Jinyang City gradually filled the air of despair, on the other hand, the senior officials of the Chu State court who were also in Jinyang City still continued to maintain a luxurious life, Zhumen wine and meat stinked, and there were frozen bones on the road. At this moment, the displaced people began to gather in piles and whispers.

After Du Le ignored the development of the situation in Jinyang City, and gave instructions to close the noodle restaurant, raise the price of the restaurant, and stop buying clover, he began to teleport on both sides again, and got busy.

Under the leadership of Liao Bingkun, the instant noodle factory carried out production and processing in an orderly manner. Although Du Le did not accept Li Ze's funds, thanks to the hot sales, Du Le was still determined to invest more money to expand the scale of production, and the new assembly line was also in close contact.

In fact, except for a slight shortage of manpower, the company has no major problems in other operations. Because the decision-making was already decided, Du Le's work was particularly easy, and he only kept an eye on the flow of accounts and supervised the production of the factory in his free time.

Du Le's approach is to fully delegate power, and since he has handed over the matter to them, he trusts his subordinates and believes in their abilities.

It's just that there are some things that can only be done by him alone. For example, customize a batch of swords.

However, in modern society, it is generally impossible for ordinary civilians to customize a batch of firearms and weapons. Even in the United States, which is highly developed and has a rampant number of guns, it is not possible, let alone China, where private ownership of guns has always been prohibited. It stands to reason that swords are also controlled items, and if you want to customize a batch of swords, Du Le has encountered a big problem.

However, there are strict provisions of the law, and there must also be loopholes in the law.

If you type custom swords into a search engine, you can find a whole bunch of specialized manufacturers.

On the Internet, I contacted a hardware mold factory in Fuyong City, Du Le contacted the merchant in the name of buying a batch of ancient knife crafts, and the number of orders was 50,000 steel knives, and the material requirements must be steel, hard and durable is the most important.

Unexpectedly, the merchant's price almost scared Du Le to death, and the wholesale price of each steel knife was 350 yuan, with a minimum batch of 500. In other words, if Du Le wants to get the amount he has booked, he has to prepare more than 10 million Chinese dollars?! There was no way, so Du Le had to ask how much the solid iron knife cost. Fortunately, the price of nearly a meter-long iron knife is not very exaggerated, 50 yuan a piece, 1000 batches. At this price, Du Le is still acceptable.

After much deliberation, Du Le decided to adjust the number of orders: 500 steel knives, 2,000 iron knives, and a batch of two-meter long spears. The head of the spear is made of iron, and the price of the spear is relatively cheap, and the wholesale price is only 10 yuan a piece, and Du Le asked for 10,000 pieces.

Getting such a large order, the merchant was naturally very happy, promising to complete it according to quality and quantity, and asked Du Le if a certain company wanted to shoot costume films, whether he needed to engrave patterns on the knife, or what special tricks were needed to grab the head.

It's really sleepy and someone sent a pillow, Du Le saved a lot to explain, followed the words of the merchant and said yes, and said that the quality must be good, not sloppy.

The total value of 375,000 orders is a big order for a small factory. Dooler asks for delivery as soon as possible, preferably no more than a month.

The hardware factory immediately said that the approximate delivery time could be one month, and if the sample was confirmed, the factory could even complete all the goods within two weeks, but such a large batch of goods, delivery may be more critical, and asked Du Le how to receive the goods.

Du Le said that this is not a problem, he has a warehouse in Fuyong City, and after inspecting the quality, it will be sent directly to his warehouse, and the whole transaction can be completed.

Through a third-party intermediary, Du Le paid a deposit of 10,000 yuan in advance. Then he asked if he could see a sample tomorrow afternoon, and he was in a hotel in Fuyong.

After getting the exact answer, the two parties agreed on a time and place, and Du Le went offline and turned off the computer.
