Chapter 353: Plan Ahead
Xu Xinsu knew that Guo Zhiyuan couldn't treat himself badly, but he didn't expect that he would be a million taels of silver tickets as soon as he made a move, so he was also a little stunned by this million taels of silver tickets at first, but he quickly calmed down, Guo Zhiyuan is definitely the most generous person he has ever seen, how many people in this world can throw out a million taels of silver tickets without blinking? Now Guo Zhiyuan put forward two choices for him to choose, although he doesn't know whether Guo Zhiyuan can make money by saying this chili pepper so magically, but he recognizes Guo Zhiyuan, as long as he follows Guo Zhiyuan closely, he is not afraid of not making money!
Thinking of this, Xu Xinsu no longer hesitated, gritted his teeth and pointed to the chili pepper on the table and said: "Then choose 30% of the equity of this chili pepper!" ……”
Guo Zhiyuan's eyes flashed, he was indeed testing Xu Xinsu by doing so, because he had a very important but dangerous task to be handed over to Xu Xinsu, Xu Xinsu was able to make such a choice in the face of so many silver tickets, which not only shows that he has a long-term vision, but also shows that he is a person who can withstand the temptation of money, such a person Guo Zhiyuan dares to reuse!
Seeing that Xu Xinsu really didn't disappoint himself, Guo Zhiyuan laughed happily and said, "Okay! I was not wrong! I promise Brother Xu, you will not regret the choice you made today, and you will definitely get much more than this million taels of silver tickets in the future! ……”
Speaking of this, Guo Zhiyuan suddenly put away his smile, pushed the one million taels of silver tickets in front of Xu Xinsu again, and said with a serious face: "But you still accept this million taels of silver tickets, I have a major matter for you to do, I don't know if you are willing?!" ……”
Xu Xinsu was shocked again, what kind of big thing does it take a million taels of silver? And Guo Zhiyuan said it so solemnly, this matter is obviously not something that can be done simply, should he accept it?
If it was before, Xu Xinsu would probably hesitate for a long time, but Guo Zhiyuan's attitude of throwing a million without changing his color made him very heartbroken, and it was worth his life to follow such a talent! Therefore, Xu Xinsu only hesitated slightly, then stood up and hugged his fist towards Guo Zhiyuan and said: "Your Excellency, you just have to order, and if you are willing to go to the soup for your adult, you will not hesitate!" ……”
This is equivalent to Xu Xinsu expressing his allegiance to Guo Zhiyuan, Guo Zhiyuan was also overjoyed, and laughed: "If Brother Xu helps me, it will be like a tiger with wings!" I think about this matter, only Brother Xu is the most suitable person, but you still have to think about it, this matter is not trivial, if I say it, you will not be able to regret it! ……”
Xu Xinsu chuckled in his heart, Guo Zhiyuan wouldn't want to rebel, right? This is a head-killing deal! But after thinking about it, he felt that it was nothing, when the maritime merchant was a business with his head pinned to his waist, and the corruption of the current court would naturally not give him any sense of belonging, but what he had seen and heard in Dongfan in the past few days made him feel that Vientiane was renewed, vibrant, and completely different from the desert island in his impression.
Thinking of this, Xu Xinsu was a little excited, patted his chest and said: "It is Xu's honor to be used by adults, and he will fight for his life next, and he will never live up to the trust of adults!" ……”
Guo Zhiyuan tried several times, Xu Xinsu has also expressed his loyalty and determination, he naturally has no need to sell Guanzi anymore, and said solemnly: "I have forbidden the sea for many years, closed and self-guarded, the saint and the princes of the court are only concerned about the inland, I don't know that the sea is already in danger, the people of Daxi come from afar, eyeing my China, although I am humble and light, can not share the worries of the court, but also have to take precautions, now my Fujian sailors have been weak for a long time, the armament is relaxed, if there is chaos at sea in the future, I am afraid that it is not enough, although my China is rich and rich, But in terms of ship strength and artillery, it is far less than the Daxi people, only the master Yi is long to control the country, Brother Xu is bold and careful, good at dealing with the Daxi people, so I want to ask Brother Xu to secretly buy Western artillery, ships, if you can get its design drawings is better, if you meet a skilled craftsman or retired officer and gunner who is good at making artillery and ships, you must spare no expense, and hire them to Dongfan, it is a great achievement! ……”
Guo Zhiyuan has such an idea for a long time, although he has modern knowledge beyond this era, and Zhao Shizhen, a master of firearms, has also recruited a lot of skilled craftsmen among the new immigrants, but if it all depends on his own research and development, after all, the speed is too slow, and there is not much time left for him, and it is only a dozen years since the Sino-Dutch naval battle that occurred in history in 1624, and the Sino-Dutch naval battle seems to be a victory for China, but in fact, the price paid by the Ming Dynasty is much heavier than that of the Dutch. And history doesn't know if it will change because of his little butterfly, so he must take precautions.
Although he also told Li Dan and Li Jin that they were trying to get a firearm from the Daxi people when they were trading with the Daxi people, but there has been no progress, think about it, Li Dan's temperament is too strong, and Li Jin's bones are too soft, they are not suitable candidates, this time Xu Xinsu can get so many foreign crop seeds from the Spanish maritime business, but Guo Zhiyuan sees hope, but he and Xu Xinsu have not been friends for a long time after all, so they decided to hand over this important task to him after repeated temptations!
Xu Xinsu thought that Guo Zhiyuan was rebellious and self-reliant, but he didn't want him to say such impassioned words, which made him more and more heartbroken about Guo Zhiyuan, and his mood was agitated: "Adults are worried about the country and the people, and they are far-sighted, which is really the blessing of my Ming Dynasty!" In the next is not talented, I am willing to attach the adult to the tail, and I will never give up! ……”
Guo Zhiyuan was still a little worried about whether Xu Xinsu was reliable, and the reason why he gave him a thirty-percent share of chili pepper was also to tie him and himself together with interests, so that Xu Xinsu would do his best for himself, but now it seems that he is too worried, patted Xu Xinsu on the shoulder and exclaimed: "Okay!" Good! Brother Xu has this determination, this matter will be done! When our Daming gunboat is mighty at sea, I will not forget Brother Xu's achievements today! ……”
What Guo Zhiyuan didn't expect was that his plan to take precautions had not yet been fully launched, and the big fat meat of Dongfan had already been targeted. Especially during this period of time, Shen Yourong was ordered by Guo Zhiyuan to vigorously crack down on smuggling ships in the coastal waters of Fujian, and also touched the interests of many people, these people have a grudge, and naturally they will retaliate against Guo Zhiyuan!
