Chapter 62: Troop Numbers

About an hour later, Lu Hong and Gao Yuan walked out of the Taishou Yamen, Gao Yuan's face was calm, but Lu Hong was a little uneasy.

Standing in front of the gate, Lu Hong looked at Gao Yuan: "Tell me, what does Taishou mean?" Did you say yes or didn't you say yes?"

Gao Yuan took the reins of the war horse from Yan Haibo's hand and said with a smile: "Uncle, don't worry, Lord Taishou naturally agreed."

"Since you agreed, Weishenme won't sign this contract?" Lu Hong was puzzled.

"Didn't Taishou-sama say that? In the evening, the eldest prince will invite us to dinner."

"What's the mystery here?"

"Taishou-sama must have agreed, but he thinks we are giving us less shares. Uncle, think about it, Lord Wu's wine has an annual income of 1,000 guan in Fufeng County, and if it is spread out in the whole county, it will have an annual income of more than 100,000 yuan, but what if the shares are more than 100 percent? That's 200,000!" Gao Yuan raised two fingers, "Two hundred thousand guan, for Lord Taishou, it is also a large amount."

"That's too little? Taishou-sama is a dry stock, huh? If you don't worry about it at all, you can get more than 100,000 yuan a year, this, this ......"

"Lord Taishou's idea is not unreasonable, he is a dry stock, but without his support, we don't want to get out of Fufeng County, even if we give him two percent or more. I think Lord Wu will definitely agree. When we made this contract, we didn't expect that the profit would be so big, and the money would be less, and Lord Taishou wouldn't care, but now that we have such a big profit, it almost solves the most difficult financial question for Lord Taishou, how can Taishou not have a reason once and for all?" Gao Yuan said: "Uncle, don't worry, the signing is certain, it depends on how big Taishou's appetite is."

"So that's the case, if you are not satisfied with the fact that there are too few shares, you can just say it, why bother with so many twists and turns?" Lu Hong shook his head, "Almost scribbled me around. I thought I was too reluctant to do it!"

"This is the genius of Lord Taishou, he is the head of a county, and he is embarrassed to bargain with our subordinates? He still wants this face, the eldest prince comes forward, it represents his meaning, he can advance and retreat freely, even if there are some unpleasant things in the future, he can also get out of the matter." Gao Yuan haha smiled, turned over and got on the horse, "Uncle, let's hurry up and find a place to stay, the shoes and socks are wet, the feet are soaked in the water is really uncomfortable, it has been a long time, it is not good for the body, let's live first, and then soak the feet in hot water to go to the fatigue!"

Lu Hong nodded, "A simple thing, it has to be so complicated, it seems that I am really not suitable for business, you are right, let's find a place to live first, go to the tired, these days, but tired. Let's go, go to Ruyi Inn!"

Put a pair of soaked white feet in the hot water, Gao Yuan couldn't help but moan comfortably, in comparison, Lu Hong is not much better, these days, every time he falls into the mud, Gao Yuan will go down to help push the cart, even if the feet are wearing sturdy cowhide boots, they have been soaked in water, so I think that those soldiers who are only wearing cloth shoes and only wrapping some thatch on them are afraid that it is even worse.

"Uncle, are you familiar with the eldest prince? What kind of person is this?" Soak your feet in the hot water and enjoy the comfort of the heat, Takato asked.

"Taishou has a total of two sons, the eldest is called Zhang Junbao, the second is called Zhang Shubao, the eldest son is thirty-one years old, and the second son Zhang Shubao is similar to you, it is strange to say, Taishou can be regarded as both civil and military, he can lead the army to fight, he is majestic, and he manages the people's livelihood when he gets off the horse, but he is also in order, but these two sons are like dividing Taishou into two, the eldest son is good at plotting, and now he is the right-hand man of Taishou, and the second son Shubao is strong in force, and he has been in the army since he was a child."

"Two sons, which one do you like to deal with?"

"Naturally, it's the second son, the second son has a short temper, but he is a typical martial artist, a character who has a intestine to the end, if he doesn't like you, then he won't give you a good face, but the eldest son is incomprehensible, he seems to be polite to everyone, but he doesn't dare to let people get close." Lu Hong said with a sense of emotion, "Gao Yuan, Taishou asked the eldest prince to talk to us, you have to deal with it carefully."

"I know!" High and far-reaching." But uncle, you still have to get closer to the eldest prince, I'm afraid that if you keep this position too much, you will definitely be the eldest prince in the future, lay the foundation early, and talk better in the future."

"I also understand that Lord Taishou has conquered this country, and if he wants to defend it, he naturally has a person like the eldest son, and the second prince is more suitable to be a military general who charges into battle." Lu Hong nodded, "It's just that the eldest prince is really not easy to make friends."

"As long as my uncle follows, I will definitely be able to!" Gao Yuan smiled. If you are a human being, you will have weaknesses, or good fame, or good power, or good money, or lust, as long as you have the heart, you will definitely be able to grasp his weaknesses and make an appointment with the problem."

Lu Hong looked at Gao Yuan and said with a smile: "Gao Yuan, what is your weakness?"

Gao Yuan made a sudden break in his heart and looked at Lu Hong, "Uncle, you grew up watching me, what are my weaknesses, you are not clear?"

"I used to know very well, but since you've healed from your injury, it's like a completely different person, and sometimes I really wonder if you're still not the Takato I knew before?" Lu Hong shook his head.

It's not the same as before! Gao Yuan secretly said in his heart, "Uncle, this time I was injured and couldn't move in bed for so long, my nephew thought a lot, every time I think of those ridiculous things in the past, I feel a little embarrassed, my uncle has taken care of me for so many years, I do my best, I can't help my uncle, but also make trouble for my uncle, this time I am lying on the bed, I have learned from the pain, I have made up my mind, after the injury, I must be a new person, and I can do something for my uncle to repay my uncle's care over the years. Uncle and nephew have grown up!"

A sentence that the nephew has grown up, but it made Lu Hong sigh with emotion, "Zida Quanxia will be very pleased to know that you are so good now, in the past few months, what you have done has not impressed me, but also made me happy, my hard work over the years has not been in vain, Gao Yuan, you and your eldest brother must support each other in the future and break out of the world."

"Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely do my best to help my eldest brother." Gao Yuan is definitely authentic.

"Okay, okay, I'm relieved!" Lu Hong said happily, "With your help, your eldest brother will definitely be able to make great progress, Gao Yuan, we are helping the wind, three hundred soldiers are indeed a little less, after going back, I am ready to recruit the five hundred soldiers of Fufeng, with Wu Kai's income, I can also afford it, you used to say those things, I thought about it carefully, very right, I used to be a miser, I just wanted to earn a family business for your eldest brother, but I didn't think that it was better to earn a family business for him than to earn a career for him."

"Uncle is right to think so, the eldest brother has a career, are you still afraid that he will not have a family business? The bigger the career, the bigger the family business. Taishou can fight from an ordinary soldier to this point, so can't the eldest brother weishenme?" Gao Yuan said with a smile.

"I don't dare to think about it if I want to do it too much!" Lu Hong shook his head again and again, "Taishou is an outlier, and it is in a chaotic world, now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do it. Gao Yuan, the newly recruited 200 soldiers, I am going to organize them all under your command, you train them well for me, and you will train them like your current 100 soldiers, rest assured, this time I will pay you in full."

Gao Yuan was happy in his heart, but there was a hesitant look on his face, "In this way, Zheng Xiaoyang and Naha will not have an opinion, right?" They're your old subordinates, uncle!"

"If you don't mention them, I'll be annoyed when you mention them!" Lu Hong's face showed dissatisfaction, "The two of them have been leading the army for so many years, and they are not as good as you when you first joined the army, seeing the hundred soldiers you trained, and then looking at their subordinates, it is simply a heaven and an underground, how can I rest assured that the newly recruited soldiers will be put to them, just let them train me half as well as you have, I will thank God!"

"Uncle, don't worry, since my uncle gave me two hundred soldiers, I will definitely train an elite for my uncle." High and determined.

"That's it!" Lu Hong said: "This time Fufeng suffered a catastrophe, many people died, but there were a lot of strong people who escaped from the sky, these people, no worries, and bent on finding revenge for the Donghu people, just recruiting, after going back, taking advantage of this little time before the New Year, we will immediately finalize this matter, and after the New Year, you can take them to Curie Pass. Where did you take them to, far away from the county seat, it won't be so eye-catching, after Zheng Xiaoyang and Naha come back, I will pay them full salary, and then give them another little more, and they will be satisfied, these two people have no ambitions, just mess around."

"Uncle is right! Although they are not of great use, they are old brothers after all, and they should not be treated harshly, maybe they can't fight, but they are used to maintain law and order, and it is still good to keep them."

The two were talking, but the water was a little cold, Gao Yuan wiped his feet dry, grabbed his shoes and walked over, squatted in front of Lu Hong, and intimately wiped his feet clean for Lu Hong, Lu Hong squinted slightly, and enjoyed Gao Yuan's service very much.

There was a soft knock at the door.

"Come in!" Gao Yuandao.

Yan Hai** opened the door and walked in lightly, "Lord County Lieutenant, Gao Bing Cao!"

"What's the matter?" Takato asked.

"Bing Cao, everyone is coming to the county town for the first time, and they all want to go out for a walk, let me ask Bing Cao, can you?" Yan Haibo asked cautiously.

"What's not to do?" Gao Yuan waved his hand, "Go, go, yes, Haibo, take ten yuan for the brothers to go shopping, see if there is anything you are satisfied with, and buy it, it's rare to come here, by the way, don't forget the brothers at home."

"Thank you, Hyoso!" Yan Haibo was overjoyed, "How dare you forget your brother at home!" If you come across something good, everyone will have a share."

"Go, go, go!" Gao Yuan waved his hand.

Seeing Yan Haibo happily walk out, Lu Hong said: "You are generous, but I won't give you this ten yuan of money."

"What can they buy, it's just some gadgets, spending a little money, but it can make them feel that we care about him, this deal, it's worth it!"

"You can associate anything with buying and selling now." Lu Hong Daxiao Road.
