Chapter 269: Resonate
"Praise the county lord, don't think too much." Leaving the Jade County Lord, who seemed to have lost his soul, left directly.
Li De returned to his accommodation, and the courtyard was full of people.
"Brother Li, you are back, how can so many people arrange for you to take the idea?" Cheng Zhijie said immediately.
"Call our guys over and look into it." Li Dedao.
Soon, Cheng Zhijie called Xiongkuohai, You Junda and others to the house to discuss things.
"Now let's talk about it, I plan to open a workshop here, I hope everyone can help, the land is fenced, and it is not far from the northwest barracks."
When a workshop is set up in a poor mountainous area, everyone is a slurry, and they don't understand what kind of business they want to hear.
"Now that I have the capital, I plan to do leather business, animal husbandry and trade logistics here."
"The leather business is good, the cost of purchasing leather is low, and animal husbandry is unique, but what is the trade logistics?" Xiong Kuohai said curiously.
"There are merchants, there is circulation, isn't it a caravan?" Cheng Zhijie said suddenly.
Everyone looked at Xiang Li De, and Cheng Zhijie's words were naturally ignored.
"That's right, the general meaning is almost the same, we are engaged in commercial trade, reselling goods and responsible for transportation, I want to build a post station express along the way between Chang'an and the northwest, and we will do the whole collection of goods on this road in the future."
You Junda began to think about it, and said with his fingers: "Brother Li means that in the future, all the goods from Chang'an to the northwest will be transported by us?" ”
"Whether the specific monopoly of the transportation business of this line needs to rely on strength to speak, although the northwest line of businessmen seeking profit is dangerous, but for the sake of interests, some people are still willing to take risks, I think there can be a healthy competition."
"Although Lao Cheng doesn't understand these things very well, I know that if anyone dares to make a big deal about our goods, I, the pioneer, will definitely destroy them." Cheng Zhijie said domineeringly.
"The momentum is commendable, our main task now is to expand the caravan, the existing horses are definitely not enough to support the monopoly demand of this line, we must expand the manpower as soon as possible, and we must be bold and careful people to join."
"Brother Li, I don't know if I can recruit friends from the rivers and lakes." You Junda asked.
Li Dexin said that the people in the rivers and lakes are all people who do not obey discipline, if they participate in their own caravan, will the business not be done, the goods will be taken away by them first, and then he will start a business and not rebel.
"You have seen the horse bandits you met when you were in a hurry, if there is no protection from the Lord of the Jade County, we may not be able to get out of trouble unharmed, as for the personnel of the caravan, they must need to be experienced in a hundred battles, and the number of goods will expand several times after the expansion of the caravan, and the personnel management is also extremely strict, I think the hired personnel should be cautious."
As soon as You Junda heard it, he knew that the people in the rivers and lakes would definitely not be good, he actually knew that those people were unreliable at some times, and they would fight for their lives as thieves, and it was really difficult to estimate how far they would do if they gave people their lives.
"Do you look down on the Jianghu people?" Zhang Chuchen suddenly spoke.
"Naturally not, my lady used to be the head of Shituo Village, and besides, you see that the brothers around me are heroes and heroes, how can you look down on them." Li De immediately explained.
Zhang Chuchen's chivalrous tenderness, he would rather offend the villain than offend the woman, this must be explained.
"Then your requirements, bold and careful, wouldn't they be very in line with the requirements." Zhang Chuchen questioned.
"You can't say that, meeting the conditions is one thing, do you want the brothers in the rivers and lakes to change their living habits and adapt quickly, we transport goods are not going to go back."
Zhang Chuchen wanted to say something, but at this time, Xiong Kuohai had already understood, so he said: "What Brother Li said is reasonable, Miss Chuchen is a temperamental, but running a caravan is not so simple. ”
Zhang Chuchen didn't speak, she still felt that Li De didn't look down on them, and she said it nicely, but she didn't believe it.
Xiong Kuohai naturally knows Li De's thoughts, the people You Junda can bring are nothing more than friends in the cottages in the rivers and lakes, if they rob the rich and help the poor, they will be good hands.
Let them guard the caravan, but things are not easy to say, once they encounter a strong enemy and they have no relatives and no reason, who will be stupid enough to stay and wait for death.
On the other hand, if the people with military registration who participate in the government soldiers, even if they are not enemies, they will fight hard, they are guarding their own livelihood and responsibility, even if they unfortunately die, Li De will not treat their families badly.
If he was given a choice, he would also insist on not using people in the rivers and lakes.
Zhang Chuchen and Li De are just a battle of will, and women will inevitably sometimes get into trouble with others because of a few words, and he completely ignores them.
"Okay, there are a lot of things to do after returning to Chang'an this time, and someone needs to keep an eye on you here in the Western Regions who is willing to stay." Li De asked.
"Walk the horses and graze, let me stay."
Cheng Zhizhi took the initiative to ask Ying to surprise a few people, he is usually very slippery, and he can't imagine Qingfu in this northwest place.
"In the future, the horses used in the caravan will depend on you." Li De directly agreed.
"Brother Li, why don't I stay." You Junda said.
Li De was a little hesitant, the people around him were the two he trusted the most, what if they all stayed in Chang'an City in the northwest.
"I believe that Lao Cheng is capable, and Junda has other arrangements to go back to Chang'an with me."
You Junda definitely can't stay here, relying on the luck and wit of the Great Demon King Cheng to deal with the affairs of the northwest.
"I want to stay too." Wei Chi Jingde suddenly spoke.
"Brother Jingde, you don't want to take refuge in the king of the backers, do you?" Li Dedao.
Li De knew that Wei Chi Jingde wanted to serve the imperial court, and he wanted to win a good background with his own force, although he had no chance to go to Liaoxi to fight, but it was also a good way to join someone else's account.
"Horse bandits are rampant at the border pass, my lieutenant Chi Jingde and his reckless man can't completely eradicate this calamity but is willing to contribute, if there is a chance, it is not impossible to be a soldier in the northwest, but I stay mainly to help the caravan clear the threat."
Wei Chi Jingde is a bloody man, full of enthusiasm, yes, but the requirements for the Ming Lord are still very high, if it was changed to before, maybe it would be good to just throw himself into the army, but now he has a much broader vision, and he also has some expectations and plans for his life.
It is not impossible to serve as a soldier in the northwest, and it is necessary to understand the situation here before making a decision.
"Well, I respect Brother Jingde's choice and hope that everyone will have a good home, if you want to leave, I will bless you, and the friendship will last forever." Li De said with emotion.
"Friendship lasts forever." Xiong Kuohai immediately followed.
Li De suddenly found that the emotions in the room set off the atmosphere, and it resonated carelessly.
