Chapter 050: Layout

In the face of the second brother's question, Lu Peng whispered his own proposal, which is now considered a commercial secret of the army logistics, to buy with money to Su Shuang, at that time Su Shuang's eyes were blood-red, the business opportunity is one step, no, even if it is half a step, it is a representative of huge profits, and it is the first hand in competition, with this batch of material procurement, the first step is to lay a good relationship with the current commander of the eight military regions, Zou Jing, as long as he promises profits, then Zou Jing is not in his pocket? At the same time, if the Han Empire adopts this method in the future, its prospects will be infinitely impressive, in fact, no matter in that dynasty, as long as the officials and businessmen collude, it is invincible, that is to occupy the world's business opportunities.

At this time, the first step to lay a good foundation with the armies of various places in advance, then once they implement this strategy, the first thing that comes to mind must be themselves, at that time, just this part, they can make their three brothers rich and rival the country.

"I don't know if the second brother has traveled south and north over the years, and there are stable merchants in Qingzhou?"

Su Shuang patted his chest and said proudly: "Big brother and I have traveled south and north over the years, and we have already formed a business network in various places. There is our merchant in this county not far away, you just say, what do you want me to do? ’

For the first time, Lu Peng heard that his eldest brother and second brother actually had such a complete business network, which was wealth. At that time, without saying a word, he directly ordered someone to bring bamboo slips and make a list of materials needed for the army to the second brother.

This expedition to rescue Qingzhou, the logistics of the entire army were almost covered by Lu Peng, and he knew what was used in the army and what was missing, so this list was very detailed.

Handing over the list to the second brother, Su Shuang couldn't help but smile easily after reading it at a glance: "These materials may be very difficult in the eyes of others, but they are not worth mentioning in the eyes of your second brother." After the two brothers finished talking, I immediately sent someone to arrange this matter. ”

Lu Peng was once again shocked by the energy of his second brother.

Su Shuang saw his third brother's worries, so he said with a smile: "The people in the world are rampant, especially the Yellow Turban Army destroys all over the country, but all they can destroy is the countryside, and they are simply helpless against those capitals and towns, and the fortresses established by those hundreds of years of family families are even more solid, so this Yellow Turban Rebellion is just to make the people suffer, and there is almost no loss to those wealthy clans." Brother, I went to those wealthy families to buy these materials, it was a breeze. Some of these materials are not a problem in the eyes of my brother. Then he looked at the list of substances proudly, and still couldn't help sighing: "There is a third brother in it to do internal response, and my brother I will draw these grain and grass materials around here, there is no long-distance transportation and no consumption during the period, and I have earned an extra two percent for nothing, which is indeed a big business." ”

Then he suddenly lowered his voice and asked Lu Peng: "The world is in chaos, as you said at the beginning, you are about to divide the warlords, but I don't know what you do to arrange the next step, brother?" ”

Lu Peng also straightened his body, and said very seriously to his second brother what he said in the barracks square.

When these words came out, he immediately made his second brother's blood boil. Although he is a businessman, he is a manly man. Creating a foundation is all inherited in a man's blood, especially after Su Shuang knew that Lu Hanqiang was a descendant of Lu Buwei, he was even more concerned about betraying the country. In the future, he will follow his third brother to resell the country, and the two elder brothers who are the third brother will be named liehous.

So he asked Lu Peng with an eager face: "You say, what do you want our brother to do." ”

Lu Peng said solemnly: "I have ordered Zhao Quan to take the 3,000 elites recruited to Zhuojun Savage Valley to sneak up and rest, accumulate strength, and think that it will be the foundation for the future, but this time what I have seized is mostly gold, silver, antique and jewelry, but less grain and grass materials, therefore, please ask the second brother to finish this army supply and trade, immediately go to the Savage Valley, find Zhao Quan, take my tokens, take out those gold, silver and jewelry, and then distribute them to various places to sell, in exchange for grain, grass, knives, guns, armor, etc., and continue to enhance our strength in the Savage Valley." ”

Su Shuang immediately patted the case and said: "This matter will be handed over to the eldest brother and me, and I will do it thoroughly." ’

"There is another point, please pay attention to the second brother, that is, after converting those gold, silver and jewelry into money, you must buy more pig iron and transport it to the Savage Valley for storage."

Su Shuang wondered what was the use of buying so much pig iron for his third brother, pig iron was brittle and unfavorable, and there was no protective effect in building armor, let alone a knife robbery.

"Storing pig iron is not as good as storing betel iron directly. Although it is an official sale in this way of iron, my brother and I still have some ways. "In the Han Empire at that time, salt and iron were monopolized, but pig iron was not among them. Therefore, the pig iron is not only cheap, but also the supply is quite sufficient. However, iron is strictly controlled by the state, which is not only expensive, but also easily unobtainable.

Lu Peng said with a smile: "Second brother, don't worry, this pig iron is in my hands, and it will become real steel in the future, and we will do the most with the least amount of money at that time." ”

Su Shuang's eyes lit up again, and he saw a huge business opportunity again. If pig iron could be turned directly into steel, how could the profit be ten times greater? The world is about to be in turmoil, and good weapons will be indispensable for all princes.

As if he could see his second brother's thoughts, Lu Peng shook his head with a faint smile and said: "This secret is still kept secret for the time being, because it is related to the development of our three brothers' future foundation, and I ask the second brother to forgive me." ”

After thinking about it, Su Shuang understood, and he didn't ask anymore, his third brother could take out the secret recipe of winemaking without hesitation, which showed that his mind was honest, so he was not in a hurry At this time, his third brother must have a complete plan.

"Second brother, this Qingzhou rebellion can be regarded as a complete disruption of a state of the Han Dynasty, and my future plan is to take Youzhou as the foundation, and then condescendingly take Qingzhou directly, and then fish in troubled waters in the warlord melee, take Yizhou, and consolidate the foundation of our future, so this time when buying grain and grass for the army, I hope that the second brother can directly make friends with the wealthy families in Qingzhou as much as possible, and make a good foundation for our contacts in Qingzhou in the future. The second brother may do it?. ”

Su Shuang's blood boiled and said: "The third brother let you go, and there are only two wealthy families, one is the same wealthy family, and they marry and take care of each other, and the second is the relationship of interests, the first one we can't do for the time being, but the second one we have full confidence, the first thing in this issue is that I have mastered the demand for the purchase of grain and grass for the army this time, I can make less money, so that these wealthy families can get certain benefits, and the second one, that is, the wine resources in my hands, in this Qingzhou area, according to the agency system you planned at the beginning." I will directly find a few wealthy families as agents, so that they can become a community of interests with us during the period, and then everyone will become grasshoppers who can't run away from each other tied to a rope, then you say, what else is impossible, Qingzhou, in fact, is no longer the final say of the Celestial Empire, in fact, it is already controlled by a wealthy family, that Qingzhou is too guarded by Gong Jing, but he is just the spokesperson of those wealthy families, a puppet. ’

Since his second brother is so sure, Lu Peng is even more assured. His own grand undertakings will be carried out in the near future.
