"For Mr. Lou's Qi Guo project. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Our opinion is still to maintain the original conditions. White looked at the project report in his hand and said to Lou Jing. Lou Jing just came in with the attitude of giving it a try to see the attitude of Qin Guo Wenyang Bank, if they can change, it is best, if not, it is good to give it a try. That's what Lou Jing thinks.

"Oh. That's right. Lou Jing said with some disappointment.

"But there's always a turnaround." At this moment, Bai Fang took out a telegram and said to Lou Jing. Lou Jing looked at White Fang with some surprise, he didn't know what the other party meant by this? Is there really a turn for the better?

"Just before we could get it, we received a telegram from headquarters. The telegram ordered us to make some concessions on the railway project. Meng Lin on the side said to Lou Jing.

"Concessions?" Lou Jing was a little puzzled, he didn't believe that the people of Qin would make concessions so easily, without the drive of great interests, the people of Qin would take the initiative to make concessions, such a thing, Lou Jing couldn't think of it.

"I'm a little skeptical that this is not true." Lou Jing shook his head and said. He was still skeptical.

"That's the way it is." White on the side sees that the other party does not believe it, and only needs to make a further explanation.

"We need a big project at our headquarters, and we need far more money than we could have imagined, so we can't afford to invest more money in your project." White explained.

"So, here's the turning point in this matter." White waved his hand and said that his body movements showed that he was helpless, and that he wanted to do the project, but had to make some specific compromises. After all, such a project is not at your fingertips.

"I'm still a little confused." Lou Jing shook his head and said. He didn't know what kind of plan Qin Guoren had, and he didn't know either, Qin Guowenyang Bank didn't give an inch before, why did he make such an adjustment all of a sudden, what the adjustment was, why he did it, he didn't know, the specific reason, he didn't know, in such a situation, it was easy to make mistakes, he didn't want to cause huge risks because of such mistakes, which he couldn't bear.

"Well, okay. Here's how it works. Meng Lin on the side saw that the other party was very puzzled, so he had to explain in person.

"We need more money at our headquarters, and as a result, we have very little money in our branches. We can't take full responsibility for this project, after all, the capital investment in the railway was very large from the beginning, and our branch could not share such a large amount of money. I think Mr. Lou should be very clear. Meng Lin explained.

"So, we're willing to work with other banks, and we're willing to make some concessions in terms of specific shares. Then we work together on the project. Meng Lin said.

"To be honest, we are not willing to give up on such a project, after all, this project has a very promising future and is very profitable. Everyone needs railways, travel, transportation of all kinds of materials, and so on. We all need that. Meng Lin explained. Both Bai Fang and Meng Lin saw this project, and they hoped to win this project, after all, after winning this project, they would be able to bring great benefits, and their position could be further promoted, and such an investment would become a typical investment plan, and they would leave their own glory in the financial history of Qin.

But now, with a message from headquarters, it is impossible for them to do so. Because the headquarters needs to draw a lot of money to complete a project that they don't know about, so they have a lot less money, which is the most difficult fact for them to accept, and they have to concentrate their funds to select the best project to invest in, after all, they don't have much money. And the railway project of Qi is the best project in this one.

"Oh. I see. Lou Jing nodded, indicating that he understood, although he didn't know what the big project in Qin Guo was, but he knew that now things had taken a turn for the better, and this turning point was just around the corner, and it was up to him to grasp it. So, I want to know, who will you Wenyang Bank work with? You know, at present, the major banks seem to be short of funds? Lou Jing looked at the two of them and said.

"It's not that important, it's important, I want to know, what does Mr. Lou plan to do?" At this time, Bai Fang looked at Lou Jing and asked.

"Me. I do not know. Lou Jing shook his head and replied.

"However, I want to hear your opinions, after all, for such a project, our Tian Group of Qi is the initiator." Lou Jing emphasized at this time that he had to emphasize such a fact, so that the people of Qin understood that they were the most important part of building a railway in Qi State.

"Well, we understand this, so we hope that your Tian Group can cooperate with our Wenyang Bank, and the best thing is that in terms of joint ventures, we can become partners or become shareholders of Tian Group. Then, all you have to do is give us a commission and we'll be able to solve the problem. Dealing with those banks. After all, it's what we do best, we're banks, they're banks, we're investing, they're investing, we know what the other side needs. We'll do the work. If you can give us a specific mandate, I think we can do it well. "White put forward its own conditions.

"Hmm. How many shares do you plan to hold? At this time, Lou Jing raised the most critical question. The issue of the occupation of shares, how many shares does the other party need.

"We only need forty-five percent. We can only contribute 500,000 gold. White made his own terms. As long as the Qin people take out 500,000 gold projects, they can get 45 percent of the shares. This made Lou Jing feel that the people of Qin really knew how to do business, and he didn't know if it was the pragmatic spirit of the people of Qin who made them so concerned about business.

"No, there are too few funds. I think it's very inappropriate for you to have such a small amount of money and yet such a large percentage of the shares. Lou Jing shook his head and said.

"Hmm. I wonder what Mr. Lou's wishes are? White asked with a smile.

"You should have 30 percent of the shares, which is the maximum amount we can come up with. In terms of funding, we hope that you can provide 800,000 gold. Lou Jing said unceremoniously.

Hear such an answer. White and Meng Lin couldn't help but look at each other, and they thought it was impossible. The conditions offered by the other party are simply unacceptable to one's own side.

"We have to take 45 percent of the shares, and in terms of funding, we can make concessions, and we can provide 600,000 gold." White said.

"This, too little." Lou Jing refused.

"I think the price is reasonable." Meng Lin persuaded.

"Our Wenyang Bank wants to cooperate with the bank to solve the railway problem of your Qi Guotian Group, if we Wenyang Bank takes the lead, I think this problem can be solved very well, after all, everyone only needs to contribute a small part of the capital, you can solve this problem, although the income is less, but the capital problem, you have solved. As for the benefits, we can all persuade these things. Lobby them. Meng Lin said.

"Hmm. You're right. Lou Jing nodded.

"At this point, there is no more suitable bank for your Wenyang Bank." Lou Jing nodded and said.

"That's right. Forty-five percent of the shares is not much. Meng Lin continued.

"If you do, you're going to give each other some shares, so we have less shares. We should have at least 30% of the shares of the Tian Group. At the same time, your shares in Wenyang Bank. I think it should be controlled at thirty-five. The two of us must join forces, so that we can further agree to such a distribution plan. Lou Jing thought about it and said. He knows. Tian Group has a very tempting thing in its hands, this thing, is their shares, these shares represent the future has the right to speak in the holding of Qi National Railway, at this point, it is impossible for Tian Group to keep most of the shares, the greatest possible thing to keep is only the right to speak in future decision-making, this right to speak, need to remain in the hands of Tian Group.

"Okay, we promise this, we Wenyang Bank can also make some concessions, but we must keep the shares at 40%, and at the same time, we can make further concessions on the capital contribution, and we can contribute 650,000 gold." Meng Lin decided.

"Hmm. OK. The rest of the shares depends on how you Qin people solve it. We will leave the matter of funding to you. But before, I think that we still have a problem that you need to solve. Lou Jing thought about it and said.

"What's the problem?" Meng Lin asked. White frowned, he was really worried that the other party made some unreasonable demands.

"Listing, the shares of our Tian Group must be listed, and I think that our Tian Group should be handed over to you to be responsible for the specific operation." Lou Jing said.

"I think you have experience with that, and I think you should be able to do that." Lou Jing said with a smile.

Meng Lin and White looked at each other. They also know that the listing is of great significance, which is of great help to them to recoup their funds, but the other party's listing, how to go public, this involves the regulatory level, and they are not too sure that they will be able to go public.

"We need to think about how to solve this problem. But I think the problem should be well solved. Meng Lin thought for a while and said.

"Hmm. I hope to be able to complete such a project as soon as possible. I can write the power of attorney to you. But this is what I need you to be able to do. Lou Jing emphasized.

"Okay, we need to talk it over. This matter can be entrusted to us. Meng Lin said with a smile.

"Okay, I'll prepare a power of attorney." Lou Jing said with a smile. The construction of the Qi railway cannot be delayed any longer. If it drags on, it will be extremely disadvantageous to Qi Guo, but I thought that I could solve the financial and railway technical problems of Qi Guotian's group. This is a good thing for Lou Jing, for such a project, he personally exhausted himself, and felt that his spirit was about to be exhausted.

And then, White and Meng Lin will be busy. After all, they agreed to each other's request. If they don't, they'll be in a very bad situation.

Inside the General Staff of the State of Qin.

"Their plans are good, but they can't keep up with each other's changes." Wang Jian said angrily. The General Staff received a new telegram from Wang Ben's department, because this telegram was inadvertently detained for some time for unknown reasons. And the General Staff has already planned according to the content of the original telegram.

Wang Benbu and Li Xinbu controlled the Yue clan and the Dawan people to attack the rest country respectively by capturing slaves and trading slaves, and the general staff also adjusted according to this line of thought. But what I didn't expect was that when I was adjusting, I actually received a telegram from Wang Benbu, saying that the direction of the Yue's attack had changed, and the direction of their main attack was the Mauryan Dynasty in the south, although the Qin State did not have much information about the Mauryan Dynasty, and could not understand the specific situation of the Peacock Dynasty. But a change in the direction of the attack will have a big impact.

"Let's think about the impact of this change in direction, we definitely can't let the Yue people continue to attack the Sabbath Country now. It was also stated in the telegram. The strength of the Yueshi people is not enough to fight head-on with the resting country, and although they have a certain topographical advantage, they themselves do not know how long such an advantage can be maintained. Yang Duanhe persuaded him.

"Hmm." Wang Jian nodded.

"It's come to this, and I can only find a way to make up for it. The choice of the Yue's offensive direction is obviously the practice of dodging a strong enemy. Wang Jian said disdainfully.

"But there's no way, if it were us, we'd make that choice, but that's it. The pressure on Li Xinbu is very great, whether they can withstand the attack of the cavalry of the rest country. You know, the territory of Dawan is all plains, there are very few mountains, and the mountains are only close to our side, such terrain is conducive to attack and not conducive to defense, although we have also taken offensive means, but if the retaliation taken by the country of peace is extremely bloody and cruel, I am worried that the people of the country of Dawan will turn to the country of peace, in this case, the pressure on Li Xinbu will be very great. Wang Jian said worriedly.

"If we use landmines, will we be able to relieve this pressure?" Yang Duanhe offered advice at this time.

"It would take a long time and require a lot of supplies. I'm worried that I won't be able to make time. You know, that is a plain terrain, the cavalry can attack wantonly, and if you build a fortress, it will take a lot of time and materials, and it is difficult to say whether it can achieve the expected effect. Wang Jian shook his head and refused. For the placement of a large number of mines, Wang Jian also thought of it. However, he is concerned that the placement of the minefields may not be as effective as expected, because defense alone will not solve the problem.

"If we send troops to fight, logistics supply is a big problem, although Li Xin sent a telegram very optimistically explaining their situation, but still can't be optimistic about this matter." Yang Duanhe said.

"It's a bit tricky. Our strength is very limited, don't look at the survivability of the Hun cavalry, but without logistics supplies, they will be defeated by the other side. Unfortunately, our logistical capacity is very weak. Wang Jian shook his head and said.

"The only solution is to solve the problem of transportation, and then we can further penetrate into the territory of Dawan country. But now we don't have a single railway. Without railways, there would be no way to provide sufficient material guarantees. The engineering troops are now scattered, and it will take some time to assemble, and most importantly, to build. The attitude of Dawanguo, their attitude is very important to us. Wang Jian emphasized.

"I think the only way is to tell the Ministry of Defense, and then tell the Prime Minister's Office, and let them imagine a way, if they can solve this problem, it will be very beneficial to us." Yang Duanhe proposed.

"Hmm. Tell the Prime Minister all the details of what we have gotten. Let the prime minister think of a way, the most important thing is the logistical supply role of that military railway. Wang Jian said.

The Qin army was equipped with a large number of firearms, and the firepower of the Qin army far exceeded that of any army of this era, but this also brought a serious problem, that is, the Qin army was extremely dependent on logistics supplies. The slightest lack of logistical supplies would have led to a slight setback in their offensive forces. The solution of the Qin army was to build a railway, relying on the strong and favorable transportation guarantee of the railway to complete their logistical supply. And Li Xin's troops were already far away from their railway transportation supply points, and the farthest away troops of the Qin army were in Li Xin's department. This is also where the staff is most worried.

The report from the General Staff was quickly forwarded to the Prime Minister's Office. Meng Yi also thought that this matter was very important, so he personally sent it to Shang Wen.

"What should I do?" Meng Yi asked directly as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Hmm." Shang Wen looked at the report. Carefully study what the report mentions.

"What do you think is the key to stabilizing the Great Wan Kingdom?" Shang Wen opened his mouth to ask Meng Yi, and he continued to study the study.

"I think it's the railway. The problem in southern Xinjiang is not very big, and there is still a railway, but the problem in northern Xinjiang is the biggest, and there is no railway in northern Xinjiang, and logistical supply is already difficult. "Meng Yi's time has come.

"General Wang Qian's analysis is very correct, all the problems lie in the logistics supply, if there is a railway, our army can be quickly transported to the north through this railway, and even to the territory of Dawan State. We were also able to organize our defenses quickly. And sent the Hun cavalry to launch a favorable attack. As long as we continue to wage a war of attrition, I believe that with the strong strength of the Qin State, we will definitely be able to solve the greatest threat of the Sabbath State. Meng Yi waved his arm and said. For the Sabbath Country, the people of the Qin State have long wanted to do it. Because the Qin newspapers continued to report on this resting country, the Qin newspapers called the resting country the hegemony of the Western Regions. And Qin's trade with the Western Regions has been carried out a lot, and the Hegemon of the Western Regions has had a great impact on Qin.

"Hmm." Shang Wen just snorted. To solve this problem, Shang Wen did not have a good solution for a while.

"The railway is easy to repair, and as long as our Qin government encourages it, it will definitely be able to be built at a very fast speed." Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.

"As long as the policy in this area is issued, it is fine." Shang Wen continued.

"But, rest of the country, how can this dilemma be solved? General Wang wrote his opinion very clearly in the report, and I think this point should also be worth our attention, what is the attitude of the people of Dawan, you know, the buffer zone between our Qin State and the rest country is this Dawan country. Shang Wen said to Meng Yi.

"Judging from the current situation, we Qin people are obviously not ready to fight a big war. We need time, we need to accumulate, so we need the Dawan people in front of us more than the rest of the people, if we can't effectively win over the people of the Dawan country, what kind of situation will arise? At this time, Shang Wen asked.

"The Dawan people may become a tool of the people of the rest country against us." Meng Yi said.

"Yes, that's the last thing we want. Once such a situation is formed, we will be extremely passive, and the construction of railways is one thing. On the other hand, I think the biggest key is how to win over the Dawan people, we have to give the Dawan people a sense of security, let them know that with the Qin people behind, they Dawan people are safe. I've seen reports like this before. It is said that the continuous attacks of the people of the rest of the country have caused the Dawan people to be very afraid, and if we Qin people adopt a wrong method at this time, it will spread the fear progressively, and at that time, the Dawan people will make their own choice. Shang Wen said worriedly.

"We have to figure out a way, we can't just look at it." Meng Yi said to Shang Wen.

"Hmm." Shang Wen nodded.

"You say, Dawan is still semi-nomadic, semi-fixed way of living, that is to say, most of them are still nomadic, but there are also some fixed cities, is this the case?" Shang Wen thought about it at this time and asked Meng Yi such a question.

"yes. Indeed, they had a large number of slaves gathered. Therefore, a certain number of cities are needed to defend them. This is more advanced than those savage Sabbatarians, who still use nomadic cavalry units, and in my opinion, the Dawan people are much more advanced. Meng Yi said.

"If there are towns in this Dawan country, we can rely on the railway, connect these towns, and then concentrate on defense." Shang Wen said one of his thoughts.

"Defense is naturally concentrated and defense is best. Especially with the rail connection, centralized defense can solve a lot of problems, and towns can provide us with a lot of markets. Shang Wen thought for a moment and said.

"But how did these areas develop into towns?" At this time, Meng Yi asked a key question.
