Liangshan Boli is not a person who is not familiar with Wu Yong, such as the three Xiongs of the Ruan family, and Coco calls Wu Yong Mr.

But unfortunately, none of the three heroes of the Ruan family are here today. And one of them went to the west, and two others to the east.

The officers and soldiers conquered Liangshan, and gathered many local ships in one go, all of which turned into black ashes in the sea of fire. However, the population of Liangshanbo has suddenly increased several times, and this ship is not suitable for use.

Yes, Liangshan himself can also make some small boats, but the cottage is only based on the old age, although there is a lot of wood on Liangshan, it cannot be dried in the shade, and it cannot be used for shipbuilding. If it is made of wet wood, not only will the hull be heavy, but the buoyancy will be drastically reduced, and the life span will also be greatly reduced. Lu Qian sent the Ruan brothers to other counties to buy some existing ships for use.

"The student has no plan, dare to ask Yu Hou how to deal with it?" Wu Yong still has two wit, and he knows that now is not the time to get to the bottom of it, but just to express the doubts in his heart.

Lu Qian laughed, invited everyone to sit down in the righteous hall, and then spoke: "Let these people be of the same heart as my brother, in my opinion, we need to start from both soft and hard." The hard part is to tattoo the words on the face, and they cannot be allowed to disobey. "According to the values of later generations, such an act is humiliating and humiliating, but in the current time and space, it is still 'taken for granted'.

"And the soft place is not to deceive others and ease each other's emotions; Good food and hospitality, enough to manage the pipe, rely on its mouth and stomach, and need to attract the coveted of this generation; If you allow five of the money to be sent home, you will have to send a lot of money to get the trust of their families, so that they can be believed. "This kind of thing doesn't need to be done in a short period of time, it needs to come one by one, as long as the actions of the cottage are seen by everyone, so that they believe that the cottage has not broken its promise, then it's okay.

"The officers and troops are so defeated, and the eyes are on the heads of the lieutenant generals and officers and soldiers, what are the small soldiers below?" If the officer surrenders to the thief, he can still pursue his family and implicate the family. And what about the creeps? The law is not responsible, does the public know?

"There were six or seven hundred forbidden troops in Jeju, and no less than five hundred surrendered the army. Nearly half of them have dependents in Tokyo, and some people ...... in Yingtianfu, "The government can't hold it accountable at all." As long as Lu Qian can ensure that the cottage money and food, the monthly payment is not bad, even if these people are unwilling in their hearts, with the passage of time, they will all give up.

"Yes, the King of Heaven gave a heavy gift today, and Lu could only accept it with a cheeky face."

Lu Qian explained to Chao Gai with a smile that there was a great shortage of money in Liangshan Zhai at the moment, and then he would pay Wu Yong's hand to signal him to take a break.

However, although such an act can be contained, it is too long and extravagant. It is also necessary to use the Dafa of complaining about grievances, and will point the finger at corrupt officials and corrupt officials, local tyrants and inferior gentry, so that the brothers can have the same mind, but it is just more than a month, and I believe that people's hearts are at peace. Lu Qian told Chao Gai and Wu Yongdao the so-called grievance Dafa, and then said the words that gathered the hearts of the cottage people that day, which provoked Chao Gai to applaud repeatedly.

Listening to Yu Hou's words, it made Chao Gai's heart happy. Liangshan is full of really good men, and he really deserves to 'do the right thing for heaven and eliminate violence'! ”

Lu Qian shook his hand, "When today's son is mediocre, the court is dark, and the world is dirty, Lu Qian can't stretch his ambitions, and he can't show his talents." I can only write these eight big words, talk about my heart, and wake up. These words are very much to Chao Gai's appetite. In the original book, Chao Gai did not allow the indiscriminate killing of innocents, Ruan's three heroes went down the mountain to rob the road, and heard that there was no murder, and the merchant gang was frightened by the momentum of Sanruan, so they left their cars and luggage, and fled for their lives, so they were overjoyed and said: "I will be sent to the cottage, and we must not hurt anyone." ”

Although the value of the future life is viewed, it is quite ridiculous, do the goods of the merchant gang deserve to be robbed? But in the green forests of the Water Margin world, such an act is already standing out from the crowd, like a white crow born in the dirty darkness of the world.

At noon, Lu Qian held a banquet in the Broken Gold Pavilion to entertain Chao Gai and his party. There are no chefs on the mountain, such as banquets, just some boiled meat, then stewed fish and chicken, etc., plus some vegetables, fruits and wine, and that's it.

But as soon as Chao Gai entered the table, his eyes were nailed to the table, and he was reluctant to leave. Wu Yong on the side also gasped!

But there was a big bucket on the table of the broken gold pavilion, which was full of snow-white refined salt.

There is also a small dish on each seat, which is half full of refined salt, and a small bowl with green onions, ginger and garlic, and the last plate of soy sauce and vinegar. But it was a large piece of boiled beef, mutton and pork on the table, and if anyone felt that it was tasteless, they just cut the meat and dipped it in condiments to eat. Lu Qian also smiled and said before, this is an interesting story he heard from an old soldier in Bianjing, that the barbarians on the northern grassland eat like this, and it is even suitable for eating meat.

But Chao Gai has already understood, and I am afraid that this banquet also has a mystery.

"Haha, the king of heaven is really happy. So I won't be vain. Heavenly King, how about looking at Du Xueyan? The finest refined salt eaten by the rich and noble? In fact, in Lu Qian's eyes, the snowflake salt at the moment is far inferior to that of future generations.

Chao Gai had already calmed down at this time, "Marquis Yu, please tell me directly." ”

"It's easy to say. Lu had a wonderful method in his early years, and he could make five taels of snow salt from one pound of coarse salt, although it was costly, but it was acceptable. I am willing to cooperate with the King of Heaven today and sell it to the King of Heaven at five times the price of ordinary salt, and how the King of Heaven will deal with it after that, I don't want to do it with me Liangshan. ”

If Lu Qian wants to win people's hearts, he also needs to recruit the homeless people outside, recruit the poor people outside, train strictly, and even build weapons and iron armor, warships and crossbows, which cost a lot of money and food.

He must have mixed in with this private salt trade.

But he didn't compete with Chao Gai for business, Chao Gai's original business was only low-grade coarse salt, although the amount was large. Lu Qian set his eyes on the high-grade refined salt, which benefited him more, but he did not have any conflict of interest with Chao Gai.

Now the official salt in various places is not less than 25 wen a catty, but the private salt only costs 10 wen a catty, and the quality is much better than the official salt. There is the sand and stones in it, and it is far from being crazy about official salt.

However, the finest refined salt, such as the high-grade pool salt, or the green salt from Xiqiang, is more than 100 yuan per catty.

Lu Qian used the price of five or six yuan per catty to buy coarse salt from Chao Gai, which was wholesale, and naturally it was not as cheap as ordinary people. And the cost is far from as he said, not counting labor and firewood, ten catties of coarse salt can produce seven or eight catties of snowflake salt. and then sell it to Chao Gai at a price of fifty yuan a catty, Chao Gai Xu can't sell this snowflake salt at a price of more than 100 yuan a catty, but it is not difficult to sell this snowflake salt at a price of more than 100 yuan a catty, but it is not difficult to sell it for 100 yuan a catty.

Because there are rich and noble families in the Great Song Dynasty, they are not short of money, but they lack eye-catching goods.

Whether it is the high-quality pool salt or the green salt from Xiqiang, there are a few of them. At present, this snowflake salt is salty but not astringent and bitter, the taste is very positive, and the appearance is excellent, this is the first-class refined salt.

Chao Gai didn't think about it, so he agreed. This kind of high-grade salt, not to mention being transported eastward to Bianjing, is sent south to Suzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Jiankang and other places, which is also in short supply.

"So good. Heavenly King, please drink this cup to the fullest. ”

"Please."

During the whole process, Chao Gai didn't mention Wang Lun, and Lu Qian didn't mention Wang Lun, just like neither of them mentioned Song Jiang, they knew each other. Song Jiang couldn't hide it from Lu Qian and the others in the previous matter, and he wouldn't hide it from Chao Gai. Otherwise, today's five major ships of heavy gifts would not be something that Chao Gai could prepare in just a few days.

Lu Qian didn't tell Chao Gai about the sugar, maybe Chao Gai would think of something when he saw the white sugar suddenly popping up on the market. But eggs can't be put in one basket, Lu Qian's impression of Chao Gai in his heart is very high, but this is not enough for him to entrust everything.

These two lines were the main sources of money that Lu Qian needed to train troops and farm in the early stage, and when he was unable to formally argue with the Zhao Song family, or when he went to the Wa Kingdom to dig gold and silver mountains, Lu Qian had to firmly grasp the financial route.

Well, that's what he thinks right now.
