Chapter 447: A million is not easy to deceive
Chapter 447: A million is not easy to deceive
In the early dynasty, after Li Longji received the news of Jili Prefecture, with the support of a number of ministers, he issued a new decree.
Mobilize guns and cannons from the arsenal and send 3,000 gold guards to the steppe for training, which is the place left behind after the Turkic retreat.
Zhang said that he was particularly happy, because the guns had always been in the hands of Zhang and Wang, and he tried several times to figure out how to make them, but to no avail.
In addition, the reason for his opposition last year was not recognized by the emperor, and he did not dare to propose to take the control power of the arsenal to his side again, and it seemed that the emperor trusted Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan more.
This time, he strongly agreed with the emperor's issue, because he heard that the manufacture of guns is very troublesome, and for every qualified gun made, there will be about five unqualified guns, and the craftsmen gathered by the Zhang and Wang families are trying to refine the thing called lathe.
Three thousand gold guards, it is inevitable that it is impossible to take only three thousand guns, and there may be useful or bad ones on the way, at least four thousand, thinking that the pressure on the Zhang and Wang families will be very great, and then there is that cannon, the cost of the cannonballs is not low, if the Zhang and Wang families cannot provide enough ammunition, they will have a reason to fight for power.
Standing there, thinking about happy things in his heart, Zhang Shuo couldn't help but show a smile on his face.
Yu Wenrong, who is not dealing with it, is worried, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are not used to Zhang Shuo, their own side will inevitably be wooed, do not expect the two to stand on their own team, at least let the two know that they and others do not pose any threat to them.
Gao Lishi's ability to observe words and expressions is not small, and when he saw the smile on Zhang Shuo's face, who was closest to him, he bent down and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the ministers are very happy to hear Your Majesty's proposal." ”
Li Longji's eyes also scanned back and forth between the courtiers who could be seen, and he didn't miss Zhang Shuo's expression, and his face couldn't help but be gloomy.
I secretly thought to myself, 'I don't know when, the people from Xiaobao and Juanjuan's master will fight, I'm worried about it, but there are still people thinking about infighting?' Xiaobao and Juan Juan are so sensible, not to mention supporting, but also expecting the two of them to have problems, their hearts can be punished'.
As soon as he thought of this, Li Longji was even more annoyed and said that this person used to think it was not bad, but why can't he see the heat more and more recently?
"Lux, do you have any news about Zhang Tingshi and Wang Joins the Army in Jili Prefecture recently?" Li Longji decided to let the people of Zhang Shuo's faction be aggrieved, which can be regarded as beating and beating, if he still doesn't know how to advance or retreat, he must make a move next.
Gao Lishi replied with a clear heart: "Your Majesty, Xiaobao and Juan Juan know that the Turks are retreating northward and Japan is going to participate in the maritime expedition. ”
Gao Lishi said this, Li Longji seemed to have really not read Gao Lishi's family letter, and said happily: "That's good, the two of them have also worked hard, I heard that the two of them personally arrived at the junction with Silla, I hope there will be no danger." ”
The ministers really thought that the emperor didn't know the specific situation just now, but as soon as they heard the emperor say that the two of them arrived at the junction, they immediately understood that the emperor was pretending, how could he know the situation there without reading the letter? Heard? Listen to whom?
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, the two of them went over in person, but Xiaobao didn't want to solve the problem by means of war, and the minister felt that with Xiaobao's action, the matter of Silla could be solved, and maybe there would be an unexpected situation."
Colliers didn't get specific news from the letter, but he knew that his godson would not do it, and once he did, Silla could only wait for bad luck, and Xiaobao's methods were unusual.
Zhang Shuo also restrained the smile on his face at this time, he heard the meaning of the emperor's words, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were still busy with the Tang Dynasty, and they didn't have any thoughts about the two of them, and they couldn't do small actions that they shouldn't do, otherwise it would be easy to put what the two of them did on a certain person, such as being assigned to Jili Prefecture.
Li Longji seemed to feel that the blow was not enough, and asked again: "Lux, how many ordnance and ammunition are in the arsenal now?" ”
In addition to Gao Lishi, Li Longji, and Zhang Zhong, the other courtiers really didn't know about this problem, because it was said at the beginning, it was in charge of the emperor, and the people of Zhang Wang's family assisted in management, and it did not go through other departments, and the Ministry of War and Zhongshuling could only stand aside.
One by one, their eyes were looking at Colliers, trying to get a detailed data from his mouth.
"Your Majesty, the minister just went to count it yesterday, and now there are 4,000 pistols, 6,000 single-shot spears, 1,500 semi-automatic guns, 200 boxes of pistol ammunition, 500 rounds per box, 400 boxes of general-purpose rifle bullets, 800 rounds per box, 150 towed artillery, 3,000 shells, 15,000 grenades, and ...... mines."
The number of the same weapons was reported, which made everyone stunned, even if they knew that the arsenal controlled by the Zhang and Wang families was very powerful, and they knew the power of the new weapons, they couldn't think of how they could build so many.
Zhang said that the pressure is even greater, for a person, the things that he doesn't know are the most terrifying, Zhang Xiaobao and the relationship between the emperor and the emperor seem to be too close, close to the extent that they are closer than the prime minister, to say that they are favored ministers, the two people are not the kind of people who rely on the emperor's favor to do things, their own strength is there, if you want to say that you can be a minister, many times it is not a gift of the monarch and the minister.
'Do you want to secretly remind Silla of the situation, Zhang Xiaobao is going to use a trick. Zhang Shuo, who felt the pressure, moved his mind, and as soon as this thought came out, he was pressed down again, forget it, I believe that the Silla people also know what Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan's methods are.
It's better to be honest, otherwise it will be known by the two of them, and it will be easy for them to kill Hanyuan Hall on a whim one day, and shoot themselves a few times in a row, well, it's easy, Xiaobei and a few people dare to carry the main book of the Ministry of Works, not to mention their brother and sister.
This family is not normal, I don't know what compromise is, and I don't know the rules to do things.
The ministers had their own thoughts, and for a while the Hanyuan Hall was quiet.
Li Longji saw that his goal had been initially achieved, so he spoke again: "Three thousand Jin Wuwei entered the grassland this time, one is to represent the place where the imperial court received the Turks, second, to check the terrain and make a detailed map, third, to strengthen the proficiency in the use of weapons, and fourth, there are too many wolves on the grassland, clean it up, and then find other animals, let the people of Fengzhou follow, make canned food, and bring it back to the capital to taste with you." ”
"Your Majesty Xie" The ministers hurriedly thanked him, and the process of making canned food from Zhang Wang's two families came out, but the recipe did not come out.
"So, let's disperse." Seeing that no one proposed anything new, Li Longji left a sentence and left in his way.
The ministers looked at each other, and they also rushed back to their respective offices, but they knew in their hearts that the Turks were about to end, and the three thousand gold guards, equipped with good weapons, plus the hot air balloon patrol above, were likely to directly hit the Turks by surprise.
Changfeng Pavilion, built near the river, set three floors, the water of the mud river can be seen gurgling and flowing, and there is a river breeze to remove heat.
As with other restaurants, the higher the local area, the more expensive the food and drink, especially the rooms facing the river, which are out of reach of ordinary people.
Li Dong recruited people from other forces on the third floor near the river, and they originally planned to come tomorrow, but who knew that today's foreign affairs of Zheng Zheng Building arrived, and he also said that he wanted to give himself a wealth and nobility, no matter what the other party planned, the proper etiquette should still be done.
So it was temporarily advanced to this evening, such as the people of Zheng Zheng Construction Group who wanted to threaten themselves, and they also had a few more helpers, so as not to fall into disadvantage.
In a room on the third floor, more than 20 people sat at three tables, some of them were obviously listless, as if they had just come out of the place of the hook fence, and if they looked carefully when walking, they might be able to see a certain person with weak legs.
More than 20 people gathered here, drinking tea non-stop, there was no dish on the table, and after waiting for half an hour, I saw Li Dong, who came back from outside and met the people of Zheng Zheng Building, accompanied the people of Zheng Zheng Construction to talk and laugh and walk in.
Finally waited for more than 20 people to get up one after another to say hello, their eyes looked at the people who came from the Zheng Zheng building from time to time, if it was just a force to build a house for others, so there was no need to pay so much attention, the problem was that the people who came here knew who was behind the Zheng Zheng building, and they couldn't pay attention to it if they didn't want to.
After a lively greeting, everyone sat down again, and the guys in the restaurant hurriedly served cold dishes and wine, so that people could eat first.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Li Dongjia has already introduced me, I am the foreign affairs of Zheng Zheng Construction Group, Zhang Tie, but you must not know why I came here today, I wish you a prosperous business and a wealth from all over the world."
The outsider sent by Zheng Zheng Construction filled the wine with the men in advance, and said to the people sitting in a noisy manner, and drank the wine in the bowl in one gulp.
When the others saw that they had already drunk, they also drank a bowl with them, burped, knowing that Zhang Tie still had something to say, and their eyes were all on Zhang Tie's body, waiting for him to speak.
Zhang Tie put down the bowl, picked up a cucumber, chewed it twice in his mouth, and shook his head slightly, obviously the taste of this cucumber cold dish in Changfeng Pavilion couldn't get into his mouth.
Li Dong didn't make any comments on this matter, since they were from the Zhang and Wang families, the things they had eaten were naturally better than Changfeng Pavilion, and the water clouds and the blue sea and silver sand were not decorations.
Reluctantly swallowed the cucumber, Zhang Tie put down his chopsticks, saw that it meant that he didn't plan to continue eating, looked at it twice with a smile, shook his head slightly, and said: "There are fewer people, let's do this first, and after letting the owners know, we will find more people to cooperate." ”
Hearing that he was talking about business, more than 20 people also put down their chopsticks and 'pricked' their ears, for fear of missing a key matter.
"That's right, Zheng Zheng Construction wants to cooperate with you to build a road from Jili Prefecture to here, the total amount of money is estimated to be 11 million, and each family can take out a little bit, and the road can be repaired."
Zhang Tie casually said a number from his mouth.
This number frightened the people present, 11 million yuan, each family takes a little, how much is a point? If it is evenly divided, it seems that it is not enough to sell all the transactions, and it is difficult for the strong?
Without waiting for someone to bring it up, Zhang Tie continued: "It's not an equal share, so the money you have in flow must not be enough, right?" ”
Everyone nodded one after another, knowing that Zhang Tie was giving face to himself and others, otherwise, not to mention that there was not enough liquid money? It's just that the family is bankrupt and can't make it up.
"So, Zheng Zheng Building takes more points, just take 10 million yuan, you share it, take a total of 1 million yuan, if the money is pressed on the goods, you can find other people to join in.
You may have to ask, why do you want to build roads, it's not a secret, my little son has taken a fancy to several specialties of Silla, and wants to make the trade bigger, and at the same time, there will be new specialties in Jili Prefecture in the near future, and they want to sell to Silla, and they planned to use ships directly, but then they were afraid that you would not see the benefits, so they united to secretly obstruct it, so they came to seek cooperation and take land transportation. ”
Zhang Tie's words revealed the fear of the more than 20 people seated, which made Li Dong and the others feel a lot better, it seems that the people on their side are still very strong together, even Zhang Xiaobao will be afraid, this is a recognition.
"Okay, a million runs, we can join forces, and we can ...... You can ...... You'll have to do your research. A person was just about to agree, but when he saw Li Dong giving him a look, he hurriedly changed his words, and the words made people feel awkward.
Li Dong opened his mouth at this time and asked: "Zhang Foreign Affairs, the road, what is it like?" When I take out the money to build the road, what will I get in return? If it's just convenient transportation, IMHO, it's not cost-effective, even if there is no new road, we will find a way to transport goods back and forth by land, so why spend an extra penny? ”
The others also suddenly considered this problem, nodded secretly, and stared at Zhang Tie's body again.
Zhang Tie smiled slightly, and said: "It is said that the Li Dong family is cautious, and when I see it today, it is true, indeed, if it is only used for transportation, it is not worth building this road, I have a plan here, you can take a look, and you will see it when the time comes." ”
