Chapter 77 Partnerships

Wang Huaqiang smiled slightly, raised his head, and solemnly bowed his hand to Han Baohu: "Okay, just do what General Han said, it's just that the amount of 500,000 yuan is not small, how are you going to give it to me, and what business are you going to do?" ”

Han Baohu waved his hand: "This money, I will give it to you after we return to Daxing, you can rest assured, I, Han Baohu, have always done what I say, and I will not pay lip service to the truth, and within this year, 500,000 yuan will be given to you, but it will take a while for me to turn around after I go back, after all, I also have to settle these personal guards first, buy the land, and then I will have the money left for you."

This time, we have taken six or seven hundred thousand dollars from this treasury, and as the emperor is a person, he will not ask about this money, so I plan to use half of this money to settle my subordinates, in addition, my Han family's savings for many years, plus this time the emperor will reward me at least hundreds of thousands of money, and give you 500,000 yuan from it, it is not too difficult to do it, you can rest assured.

As for what kind of business to do, I don't interfere with this, it's entirely up to you. I'm just mentioning a Jianyì, this time Nanchen is extinguished, the four seas are pacified, the emperor and the queen are also getting old, and they will also consider improving their lives, the two saints in the palace used to be diligent and thrifty, so no one dared to be extravagant among the ministers below, but on the other hand, if they opened this opening, the people below would naturally begin to pursue enjoyment.

Daxing City will inevitably have a group of powerful people from Nanchen who will be forced to move in, these people will not necessarily be crowned officials, but they will have money in their hands, and they are used to living a life of fine clothes and food in Nanchen, and it should be unlikely that they will reduce their quality of life when they arrive in Daxing.

So I built yΓ¬ you open a high-end manor, for these people to eat, drink and have fun, in the past Northern Zhou Emperor to deal with the Northern Qi Dynasty people's practice, will take out millions of dollars every year to raise these people, in order to appease the hearts of the people of the Southern Dynasty, but will not let them go back to the hometown of Nan Chen, just like the current Xiao Liang Dynasty clan, belongs to the rich man who has no real power, but has a lot of income, how to please these people, I think you should have a way. ”

Wang Huaqiang laughed, he had already thought about this business idea, in the era before the crossing, all kinds of bathing cities, high-end clubs, and nightclubs have always been the most profitable places, but Yang Jian has always been thrifty, and the nobles and nobles in Daxing City are usually low-key and introverted, and Wang Huaqiang himself does not dare to do this business.

But with Han Baohu's words, it is tantamount to getting a business license to open a red mansion, which is undoubtedly a lucrative business in this era when corruption is legal and even private ministries are allowed.

Wang Huaqiang thought of the pride in his place, and simply said his other idea: "General Han, what you just said is limited to civil officials and scholars, Jiang Zuo has always been romantic, those literati and scholars who have died in the country, and the famous people naturally want to find a place where they can borrow wine to drown their sorrows and be accompanied by beauties.

But generals like Ren Zhong, Fan Yi, and even Xiao Maha and Zhou Luohu like the Southern Dynasties, I'm afraid what they need is a place where they can ride horses and hunt, and express their depression in their hearts. ”

Han Baohu patted Wang Huaqiang's shoulder with satisfaction: "I will leave all these business matters to you, you just need to divide half of the money you earn with me, and if Wang Shiji wants to trouble you, you tell me, I will also help you out of the 500,000 yuan you are given." ”

Wang Huaqiang nodded, compared with the 500,000 direct monetary aid, this umbrella is what he needs more now, the eldest brother is dead, and his father's health is so bad, he is really worried that as soon as he goes home this time, Wang Shiji will come to the door to forcibly seize the family property with the halo of destroying Chen Gongchen, and he is obviously in vain on the road to seeking official positions this time, if it is not for Han Baohu as a backer, then it is really a loss to his wife and soldiers.

Han Baohu looked at the sky and said: "The time has passed, Xiao Maha has been tossing for a long time today, and he has to cook a meal for Chen Shubao, which can be regarded as fulfilling the righteousness of his courtiers, hum, it is really hypocritical, if he really wants to be loyal, why not fight with all his strength on the battlefield." I heard that Lu Guangda fought to the end, and even after He Ruobi left the battlefield, he also captured more than 1,000 soldiers of our army.

It wasn't until Chen Shubao's armistice edict arrived that Lu Guangda wept bitterly, dismissed his troops, disarmed and surrendered, as a soldier, this is what he should do, not like Xiao Maha who did nothing on the battlefield, but after being captured, he had to show his loyalty. ”

Wang Huaqiang sighed: "General Han, don't you know, this Chen Shubao fornicated with Xiao Maha's wife before the war, that is, Ren Zhong's granddaughter, this matter is well known to everyone in Nanchen Senior Officials, and Xiao Maha can't raise his head because of this, I think it's not easy to do what he does." ”

Han Baohu was stunned for a moment: "There is such a thing? Damn, Chen Shubao is too talented, if he, Chen Guo, is not dead, it is really unreasonable. But this Xiao Maha is really a soft egg, the hatred of killing his father and the hatred of taking his wife are all incompatible, he can still bear it, if he wants to change me, he will kill the slut first, and then turn against his mother, this is what the husband does! ”

Wang Huaqiang laughed, which can be regarded as agreeing. He paused and said, "General Han, since Xiao Maha has also met with Chen Shubao, I will take him back to restore his life." As for the sentence that General He asked me to bring to you, it was said that it was a favor today, and he would repay it every day, how do you plan to reply? ”

Han Baohu said coldly: "Is he competing with me, or do you think that I, Han Baohu, have taken his first credit." I have made this matter very clear, Han doesn't feel that he is wrong, and if I do it again, I will still do it. You go back and tell General He, just say that Han Baohu already knows, there is nothing to say, if he wants to repay the favor, it is best to repay the favor to the emperor, and His Royal Highness the King of Jin, it was the emperor who gave him the opportunity to go south. ”

Wang Huaqiang secretly said in his heart, this Han Baohu is so powerful, a pun, which not only reminded He Ruobi, whether it is himself or He Ruobi, he is just the emperor's general, and if he continues to make trouble, it will only hurt the emperor's face. There is also an implicit threat, He Ruobi disobeyed the military order of the King of Jin and went to war without authorization, once this matter is big, I am afraid that Yang Guang, the king of Jin, will treat him first.

Thinking of this, Wang Huaqiang smiled and said, "Then I'll take Xiao Maha back to recover my life." ”

Han Baohu nodded: "Well, you can keep my general order first, if you want to find me in a hurry in the future, you can send someone to see me with this thing, I have already said hello to the main hall, you can take Xiao Maha away when you go." By the way, Gao Xi Gao Servant may come tomorrow, and if he wants to ask you about some details of this battle, you can answer truthfully. I still have some business, so I won't go with you. ”

Wang Huaqiang hooked the corners of his mouth: "The last general knows how to speak." Take care, General! He saluted Han Baohu, turned around and left.

Wang Huaqiang returned to the main hall and saw that Xiao Maha was already standing outside the hall, and Han Shige was guarding him with three or four guards. I saw Xiao Maha standing with his head held high, looking up at the moon in the sky, his expression was full of endless vicissitudes and loneliness.

Wang Huaqiang stepped forward quickly and said to Xiao Maha: "General Xiao, are you done?" Can we hit the road now? ”

Xiao Maha didn't look at Wang Huaqiang either, and said proudly: "The old man's wish has been fulfilled, even if he dies now, there is no regret, you can take my head now." ”

Wang Huaqiang was slightly stunned and said, "Why does General Xiao think that we are going to kill you?" ”

Xiao Maha turned his head and looked at Wang Huaqiang, his eyes were like electricity: "The generals who have always died in the country will not die on the battlefield, but will also be killed in the market, even if I have been defeated and captured, I have no thoughts of life, and the reason why I did not rush to death on the battlefield is to see the emperor for the last time."

Now that my wish has been granted, what are you waiting for? Could it be that you are preparing to behead me, General Lu, General Fan, Shi Zhongshu, and Shen Zhongshu outside the noon gate tomorrow, and hang their heads on the head of the Vermilion Bird? ”

Wang Huaqiang smiled: "Although I am only a small member of the army, I dare to say that with the sage and benevolence of our current Great Sui Emperor, it should not be like this." The emperor governs the country with benevolence, and has always admired loyal ministers and martyrs, and the world has been pacified, and he wants to set a positive example for his courtiers. After all, General Xiao is loyal to Chen Guo, and this time he will not forget the righteousness of the monarch and ministers, so he will not be in danger of his life. ”
