How bold the man is, how productive the land is, the work is done.

"Master, you finally got the job of the governor's envoy, and the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, don't do anything else, I'm sorry for such a good opportunity, people don't have windfalls and don't get rich."

Reminding him to look farther, Li Ran lowered his voice, "Let's form an armed force subordinate to you." ”

Li Xian really felt as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt, and he was petrified for a full ten seconds before he was shaken all over.

"Ran'er, you're crazy! This is a rebellion! ”

“…… You say, "Do you want it?" ”

“…… Want! ”

"That's okay, on the surface, you go to various places to supervise water control and agricultural classes, and secretly, I will help you organize a team of elite soldiers and pull out the kind that can overturn the regular army."

There is a power in the barrel of a gun, and Wu Zetian must be in turmoil when he is the prince, once Li Xian counterattacks the upper position, and there is no hole card, anyone can ride on his head and, can he still live that day?

Next stop, Lanzhou.

The same routine, first sprinkled silver to mobilize the enthusiasm of the local government, organized people to dig the Yellow River, straightened out the ideas, and rushed to the central city of the entire Longyou Road, Liangzhou.

A famous place, about its poems, at least can fill a basket.

Li Ran decided to stay here for a few more days...... He's not a machine, he has to take a shower and make up for the hungry stomach of the past few days.

A few catties of lamb meat were bought at the market, washed and chopped, sprinkled with cumin, and the authentic lamb skewers made Li Xianhui give up all reserve, apparently, she was also hungry.

"Master, Liangzhou guard Wang Haibin asks to see you."

When he was eating happily, Cheng Bo entered to tell him, and after a while, a middle-aged man strode in.

"Weichen Wang Haibin meets with the governor's envoy."

Short and clean etiquette, without any mud and water, obviously a military general but received a civilian position in the history of assassination, and I don't know how Wu Zetian arranged it.

"Lord Wang doesn't have to be polite, come, eat barbecue."

It's embarrassing for the family to eat and hang the guests aside, the basic way of treating people, Li Xian understands.

Wang Haibin was also not polite, grabbed the mutton and ate it, ate the meat, and drank wine, and he had nothing to say.

Li Ran doesn't know much about this person, and there are only a few words in the New Tang Dynasty book, but his son is very awesome, Wang Zhonghe, a famous general in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, but unfortunately he will not be born in a few years, otherwise he will have to make friends and be included in his command.

"Your Excellency, I heard that you are carrying out water control projects in various states, what are you going to do in this Liangzhou?"

After drinking and eating, Wang Haibin expressed his intention, and Li Xian naturally acted according to the plan, and also threw out the conditions for dredging sand.

"It's so good, Liangzhou is vast and sparsely populated, and there is no need to organize the people to be so troublesome, so I ordered the Liangzhou defenders to do the charge d'affaires, as long as the wages are enough, the progress is faster than that of the migrant workers."

"Oh! Lord Wang wants to use the Liangzhou garrison? ”

Li Ran was instantly interested, and asked directly.

The civil and military are not unified, he is a assassin, and the mobilization of the army can be exceeded, besides, the generals in the barracks are not decorations.

"Why not, the border army also has to support their families."

Wang Haibin replied very calmly, for this reason, Li Ran was convinced, it was really a distant place for the Emperor of the Mountain, and it was strange that Wu Zetian did not take over private work in the Luoyang army.

"Okay, according to your intentions, Lord Wang, I will give you an extra fifty percent, which can be regarded as King Luling's sympathy for the hard work of the brothers guarding the border pass."

Li Ran happily took out 15,000 taels of silver tickets, Wang Haibin had never seen such a huge amount of money, and suddenly got up excitedly and bowed to the two of them three times in a row.

"Don't rush to say thank you, I have another personal matter that I need your help with."

Li Ran smiled and raised his eyebrows, "I want to form a big caravan and need guards, can you introduce the top handy?" ”

"Hey, what's so difficult about that, we don't have anything else to say, so there is no shortage of men who play with knives."

Wang Haibin thought it was some trouble, and immediately patted his chest and agreed.

“…… Five thousand! ”

Of course, when Li Ran reported the number, he was instantly messy in the wind.

A convoy of 5,000 people, how dare you say that it is not an army?

“…… You want so many people, do you mean anything else, the goods transported to the Western Regions on the ground in the entire Liangzhou can't be guarded by so many people! ”

Wang Haibin was not stupid, and his expression immediately became vigilant.

"It seems that you don't know anything about my level of tyrants."

Li Ran smiled, "In two months, my goods will be shipped to Liangzhou, you can find all the manpower for me, and when the time comes, you will know if my things are enough." ”

After the voice fell, Li Ran easily invested 10,000 fiat currency in the 'Logistics Information Station Construction' project and unlocked the 'Liangzhou' site.

He built a whole set of industries in Luling, and finally had a place to use.

Two months is the time when Luling's materials are transported to Liangzhou using virtual logistics!

“…… Well, that's a deal! ”

Wang Haibin was skeptical, and for the sake of the silver ticket, he nodded in agreement.

After resting for three days, Li Ran and Li Xian parted ways, and the old man continued to take the silver to scatter money in various places, while he was ready to do private work.

It is impossible to build a strong and powerful army without seeing blood.

Cheng Bo's carefully formed team of henchmen in Luling was pulled out to practice.

"What, young master, you want to kill the horse thief?"

When Li Ran said his purpose, Cheng Bo was stupid.

Isn't it the government's business to clear out the thief? When will it be the turn of private armed forces to intervene.

"That's right, you come and look at this map, everywhere I fence it, there are horse thieves who have haunted it, find them, and kill them all."

Li Ran was serious, and even made a detailed plan, "I will prepare a flintlock pistol for you, and the ammunition is enough, so you don't have to worry about attrition in battle." ”

“…… Young master, it's not a matter of equipment, it's that we are clearing the horse thieves on the ground in Liangzhou, but we can't hide it from Wang Haibin's eyes. ”

"I don't plan to hide it from him, find a legitimate reason, for example, to open up the wasteland to increase grain production, you must ensure the safety of the surrounding area, define these horse thieves as a safety hazard, and the crusade is justified, and his guards just helped us dig the Yellow River sand, so I won't bother to help."

In fact, Li Ran's purpose is much more than that.

"Actually, I deceived Wang Haibin, I said that I would form a guard team of 5,000 people, but I didn't say how many I wanted to form...... At the very least, there has to be a backup, right? One is in the light, the other is in the dark, and there are three nests of cunning rabbits. ”

"From these horse thieves, select the ones who can be Zhao'an, integrate them into a new team, and use them to do unsightly things, for example, their old business, attacking caravans, of course, we also have a way of stealing, and the target is set on my father-in-law's political enemies, hehe, don't you think that there are too many caravans under the command of King Liang to make money in the Western Regions?"

Cheng Bo was speechless for a long time, and instantly felt that most of his life had been in vain.

In terms of playing with people, his own young master is really a first-class expert.

"Yes, young master, I'll do it!"

"Go ahead, give you three days to prepare, and besides, send someone to send me this letter to Cold Spring."

The signature of the envelope is the three words "Li Chongrun"!
