Seeing that Fan Yongdou said bleakly, Hong Chengchou's face softened, "Your loyalty, this official and Master Fan see it in their eyes...... Tell me then, then, of the negotiations with the south. ”

Fan Yongdou breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let the two adults know that we will send someone to the south to contact after the armistice and peace talks between our dynasty and the Yixing dynasty." ”

"Hmm." Hong Chengchou replied noncommittally.

"The Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce agreed that the Chamber of Commerce would come out to the General's Mansion to ask for a request and send sailors to the relevant waters to suppress the bandits, but it was just ...... They put forward a condition. ”

Fan Yongdou hesitated for a moment and looked at Hong Chengchou.

Hong Chengchou sighed again and gestured to continue.

"The condition is that our DPRK must allow the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce to open money banks and free trade in the state capitals of our DPRK."

Hong Chengchou and Fan Wencheng glanced at each other, then frowned and said, "Ridiculous." Why didn't they allow the northern merchants to go to the south to open money banks and trade freely? ”

Fan Yongdou hurriedly said: "Lord Hong, the other party also agrees that we will go to Jiangnan to open a money village and free trade. ”

Hong Chengchou was stunned for a moment, and said with a frown: "So, are you forcing the official and Lord Fan to agree?" ”

"I don't dare!"

Fan Wencheng said leisurely: "Mutual trade, and also said that it is possible to open a money bank, but the matter is big and it must not be reckless." ”

Hong Chengchou also echoed: "This matter must be presented to the emperor, and the emperor will decide." ”

Fan Yongdou secretly scolded in his heart, these two old horsemen still have to ask for their own situation, such a little thing, and they still push back and block.

scolded in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "There are pirates in the waters, and the goods cannot be supplied on time, which is related to the errand of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the two adults also know how much goods need to be delivered every day." If the waters are not quiet, I am afraid that there is an errand assigned by the emperor by mistake. ”

Fan Wencheng scolded: "Are you using the emperor to persecute this official?" ”

"This is something you would never dare...... However, I really can't help it. Speaking of this, Fan Yongdou took two steps forward and said: "Two adults, we have already negotiated with Jiangnan businessmen, and all the money houses opened by the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce in various prefectures and counties in our dynasty have our shares, and they account for sixty percent, and we account for forty percent...... In this way, every time a money bank is opened, two adults can account for one of the dry shares, without the need for two adults to pay money, every six months, the dividends will be sent to the government on time ....... ”

Fan Wencheng and Hong Chengchou looked at each other.

Hong Chengchou said: "There are thieves rampant on the sea, and the imperial court should have provided shelter, but there is no sailor in the imperial court, and the imperial merchants have to undertake the errands of the internal affairs office, which is indeed difficult...... The official thinks that the imperial court should still support the emperor and businessmen to save themselves, what does Master Fan think? ”

Fan Wencheng nodded and said: "What Lord Hong said is reasonable, although the two countries are hostile, but the civil trade court has never banned it, it is all for the sake of livelihood, for the official, should be the master of the people, this official agrees with Lord Hong's advice." ”

When Fan Yongdou and the other eight people heard this, their faces were full of joy, and they bowed to Fan and Hong and thanked them again and again.

Hong Chengchou said solemnly: "Mutual business is mutual business, you must not be mixed with spies, if this is the case, don't blame the official and Lord Fan for being ruthless." ”

Fan Wencheng also said: "Silver has to be earned, but loyalty to the emperor must not be less." ”

Fan Yongdou and other eight people should be again and again.

Hong Chengchou said leisurely: "Then the two million taels of silver that the imperial court wants from all the virtuous people to donate...... ”

"The two adults can rest assured that within five days, the money will be handed over to the household department."

Fan Wencheng and Hong Chengchou laughed.

Fan Yongdou and other eight people also laughed together.

For a while, everyone was happy, and there was a litter of snakes and rats alive.

……。

Wu Zheng's training has entered the final stage at this time, that is, the bayonet fight of three defenses and one stab and the multi-person fight of three people back to back.

On the first day of bayonet training, Wu Zheng specially lectured the soldiers, "...... Twenty days of training, I am very satisfied, let's put it this way, the degree of satisfaction, beyond my expectations, you deserve to be the elite among the ten thousand...... I think you yourself are feeling it now, and you have become ...... different from before. ”

All the soldiers stood with their heads held high in a calm manner, and when they heard Wu Zheng's praise, everyone had a confident smile on their faces.

Yes, they're really different.

If they were an elite team before Wu Zheng took over training them.

Well, now they are already the elite of the elite, and they are tiger ben.

It's not that Wu Zheng has a powerful art of gold counting, but that Wu Zheng taught them the honor of soldiers and how to maintain their honor.

If before they were in pursuit of individual prowess, now they have built up the power of the team.

"In the last ten days, we have to train bayonet skills, but this is certainly not something that can be practiced in ten days, I can only teach you the method, after the thirty days of training, you need to perfect and improve in actual combat, and then summarize a set of effective bayonet skills for the soldiers you will bring."

"But before I train in bayonet skills, I want to tell you about another way to defeat the enemy and at the same time effectively protect yourself and survive the battlefield."

"You all know by now that the cooperation between comrades and comrades on the battlefield is very important, but what you certainly haven't realized is that there is one more important thing ......."

"That's trust!" Wu Zheng shouted loudly, "That's trust!" In previous battles, a bold and strong soldier could rely on the bravery of one person, with one enemy to three, or even one against five, and he was often surrounded by soldiers of similar strength, because the weak and slightly cowardly soldiers could not keep up with their pace, so the circle of warriors was fixed, and ordinary soldiers could not enter this circle. This is the so-called gathering of things by likeness and people by groups. These warriors don't need the help of ordinary soldiers, because ordinary soldiers can't help them on the battlefield, and even drag them back ....... ”

"But now it's different. No matter how fast a man runs, he can't shoot a bullet, and no brave soldier can stop a bullet. When you're in danger, a soldier you once looked down on may be able to save your life with a gentle pull of the trigger with your finger. You are equal in this matter. Therefore, please trust your comrades-in-arms, because on the battlefield, they are your most reliable shield and guarantee of survival. ”

Wu Zheng's words caused a lot of repercussions, and the soldiers couldn't help but look at their comrades-in-arms around them.

Wu Zheng stretched out his hand and pointed to a half-person-high wooden platform in the distance that had just been built and said, "It's not the norm to temporarily add training today...... Each team has twelve people, six people on the stage, six people under the stage, the person on the stage falls backwards, the person off the stage is responsible for catching him, then rotates, and finally the teams cross rotate. ”

"Captain of the fourth team, first demonstrate."

"Yes."
