Chapter 183: Wu Hui's Ambition

In an agrarian society, ploughing cattle and horses are all strategic resources, and all forces have tightly controlled them in their own hands, so how can they be given to other forces. To put it mildly, if it were two hostile parties, these things would not be bought with money at all.

Not to mention, today's Huashan Army has no money at all! Even if you want to buy it, it's unlikely that you can buy it.

In the land of Guanzhong, there are not many cattle and horses, and it is unlikely to be obtained from south to east. To the west and southwest, and most importantly to the north, these things can be obtained.

But the southwest is the land of Liang Yining Sanzhou, which belongs to Jiangzuo! This kind of thing, they don't have enough for their own use, and it is basically unlikely that they will sell it in Guanzhong, unless Li Xin has become their own person.

To the west, there are cattle and horses in these places in Liangzhou and Qinzhou, but now that they are occupied by the enemy, how can they let the Huashan army buy these things.

The only remaining possibility is the Northland, where the Hu people live! Moreover, at this time, it has not been unified by anyone, and the only one who is more powerful is still the acting king Tuoba Shiyigan, but he has no grudge against Guanzhong, and he is relatively far away.

Therefore, that place is the most likely place for the Huashan Army to obtain cattle and horses! But the problem is that it is too far away from Guanzhong, and all kinds of ethnic groups live together along the way, and large and small forces are mixed in it. Even if you get a batch of cattle and horses, if you don't send a large army to pick them up, you can't bring them back.

Of course, the most important thing is that the Huashan army has no money, and at this time, he doesn't want to use the army to rob those Hu people's things. After all, it is already difficult enough for the army to defend alone, and it has not been repaired much, so it is really not appropriate to dispatch it at this time.

Now Wu Hui actually said to himself that he had a way to solve this problem, which was really beyond Li Xin's expectations. Of course, if the other party really has a way to get a batch of cattle and horses for himself, it will be a great thing. After all, it means that you don't have to spend too much money to get the most out of it.

"The grass people have their own methods, but there may not be too many horses, and they are mainly ploughing cattle. Moreover, the total number cannot be too much, and the grass people's ability is limited, so I am afraid that they can only get about 200 heads at a time. Wu Hui said ominously.

Hearing this, Li Xin knew that he had some secrets of his own, and obviously, he didn't want to let himself know. It's nothing, if he really has this ability, I'm afraid he is also a person with some means! This is the guy he eats, how can it be easily revealed.

"If you can get two hundred cows at a time, it will be a great achievement, and when the time comes, how about I make you an official?" Li Xin didn't delve into it, and after thinking about it for a while, he said.

People do things for themselves, so they have to give a little benefit! Otherwise, who will help themselves? Since the other party has solved a big problem for himself, that official position still has to be given.

"General, the grass people don't know how to govern the people for the officials, and put the villain in the officialdom, I'm afraid that I will mistake the general. The grass people heard that the general had taken the power of salt and iron back to the government, and I wonder if the grass people could participate in it? How about these cattle and horses as the price of the salt and iron tickets? Hearing this condition, Wu Hui hurriedly shook his head and said.

Hearing his thoughts, Li Xin couldn't help but look at him twice. In these years, although the status of businessmen is not as low as it was later, it is not so affordable after all.

A great opportunity to be an official is in front of him, and ordinary normal people probably know how to choose, and it is really strange that he would rather be a businessman than an official.

Of course, Li Xin does not discriminate much against businessmen, after all, his values are different. Others may not understand Wu Hui's thoughts, but he can understand three points.

This Wu will dig out his mind to get out of the bandit village and return home, so naturally it is impossible to sit and eat empty. He used to be a businessman, but now he is going back to his old job. What to do to make the most money, of course, is still a matter of salt and iron.

In the past, these two things were controlled by the big surnames in various places, and although his Wu family was a little powerful, he was not strong in this regard. So, for many years, I was able to do other things to make a living.

But now it's different, after the production of salt and iron is returned to the government, anyone can do this, which makes Wu Hui see the opportunity. A shrewd businessman is always able to find a way to make money at the first time.

Compared with the old business, these two things are much faster to make money. However, today's Wu family is not as good as in the past, and if they want to take out a batch of grain in exchange for salt stamps and grain stamps, it is almost impossible. I'm afraid that's the idea he would come up with to exchange cattle for tickets.

If you can successfully participate in this, then it will be just around the corner for the Wu family to return to its old prosperity. There is no need for many cattle, as long as the first success is achieved, the first pot of gold is in hand, and then you can make money, isn't this what businessmen are best at.

However, Li Xin still underestimated the ambition of this Wu Hui.

"Cattle and horses are very important, and I also ask the general to give the grass people the right to do cheap ~ things, so that they can succeed. If the grass people complete the task, can they do things for the Huashan Army in the future and be responsible for some material supplies? After sneaking a look at Li Xin's expression, Wu Hui continued.

Li Xin, who originally wanted to promise him, swallowed the word "promise" back after hearing this. Silent, looking at the man in front of him steadily, there was silence in the room.

"This guy has a big appetite! It seems that this is a desire to be an imperial businessman? Li thought confidently.

Imperial merchants, in ancient times, were merchants who specialized in royal trading and were responsible for supplying things to the royal family. Ordinary people can't do this kind of thing, but once they get this qualification, they can almost be said to have won an iron rice bowl. As long as there are no problems in the middle, you can basically make a lot of money.

Although the Huashan Army is not considered a royal family, if it is replaced by any force, this causal relationship is also valid. The fact that these people in Huashan Army eat horses and chew is enough to feed many people.

And Wu Hui at the bottom was a little uneasy at this time, and he didn't know if Li Xin would agree to himself if he put forward this condition. If you don't agree, it's fine, just don't cause trouble for yourself.

He put forward this condition, of course, with his own ideas. Along the way, by chatting with the accompanying Huashan soldiers, he learned a lot about the Huashan Army, and naturally learned more about the Huashan Army.

In his opinion, although the scale of today's Huashan Army is not very large, its potential is not small. In addition, now that it occupies the land of Guanzhong, as long as you work together, it will definitely grow stronger and stronger in the future.

At this time, I would rather lose some money, first have a good relationship with the Huashan Army, and get these supplies in my hands. In that way, when the power of the Huashan Army grows larger and larger in the future, the benefits he will get will be more and more.

This is a matter of vision, a shrewd businessman can not only see the immediate benefits, but also take a long-term view. The gains and losses for a while, it doesn't matter, the important thing is the future! Wu Hui is obviously such a businessman, so he will put forward conditions at this time.

Of course, he knew that with the current situation in the world, it would be very difficult for him to get a batch of cattle and horses. But do business! If the money was so easy to make, I'm afraid everyone would do it. Therefore, in order to make the Wu family prosperous again, he decided to give it a chance.

Just when he was waiting a little flustered, Li Xin behind the long case finally spoke.

"I can't agree to you for the time being! I haven't seen what you're capable of, you need to prove yourself! Whether it's salt or iron, or supplies, or even the biggest thing, I can get you involved, but the problem is that you have to show me that it's worth it! Do you understand what I mean? Li Xin said lightly.

Hearing this, Wu Hui couldn't help but be a little disappointed, but he was still very happy. After all, although Li Xin did not directly agree to his conditions, to a certain extent, he has already partially agreed.

As long as he can get this thing done, he will be able to gain his trust, and the next things will naturally be much easier.

"General rest assured, the grass people know what to do! Grass people retire! Wu Hui hurriedly said, and then respectfully withdrew.

Soon after he left, Li Xin called Tu Qi over.

"You send someone to check and see how he accomplished this. If the process does not harm our interests, then let him go! Everything is only observed in secret, and when I come back, I will report back to me in detail! Li Xin confessed.

He was eager to see what kind of means this person had used to solve the problem, and if it was really done well, then it was okay to agree to his conditions. Moreover, he can give him more benefits, as long as it is beneficial to the Huashan Army.

After Wu Hui went home, he stayed for three days, and then went out again. Li Xin didn't care about him for the time being, and concentrated on all the things under his rule. Now that November is over, there is still a month to the end of the year, and in the blink of an eye, the ten years of Yonghe will pass.

Li Xin began his own inspection in accordance with the usual practice, and this time the inspection was mainly carried out by garrisons in various places. At the same time, by the way, I personally escorted some supplies to them, such as some food, some thickened quilts and the like.

Fortunately, the Huashan Army had already made preparations, so they were relatively well prepared for these winter clothes, and after the autumn, these warm clothes were distributed. Among them, the defenders on the various lines of defense were the first to be supplied, because these places were mostly in the mountains, and the temperature was relatively cooler.
