Chapter 544: The development of the Trade City is changing every day

In these years, there is no such thing as marriage leave, and Li Deyi has to continue working on the second day of his wedding. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoHe is responsible for training a new group of cavalry to prepare them for future battles. In the future, the Dingbei garrison will inevitably go north to the grassland, all the way to the city of Tongwan, and completely destroy the Tuliao State.

The grassland battle is not as good as that of the pass, and it must rely on a large number of cavalry. The total number of cavalry in the Dingbei garrison regiment is only 4,000, which is not enough at all. If you want to fight under the city of Tongwan, you must have at least 20,000 elite cavalry.

What's more, Li Deyi's plan for the future battle is not just as simple as attacking and destroying the Tuliao State. He planned to kill the wolf beasts of the Tuliao tribe one by one, in order to avenge the crimes they committed against hundreds of millions of ordinary people. On the grassland, after the Tuliao State was destroyed, the wolves and beasts of the Tuliao tribe could flee in all directions, hide in the depths of the grassland, wait for the Dingbei garrison to retreat, and then slowly rise from the new.

Since Li Deyi has decided to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots and eliminate the future troubles forever, a large number of cavalry must cooperate and carry out a protracted pursuit to exterminate the Tuliao tribe.

The elite infantry of the garrison regiment is enough to defeat the Tuliao Kingdom, and what he needs to do now is to train enough cavalry to ensure that he can hunt down and kill all the Tuliao wolf beasts.

After three years of development, Dingbei Horse Farm now has 65,300 horses of suitable age, which is enough for Li Deyi. Li had to train his foot soldiers into cavalry.

On the first day, two thousand elite infantry soldiers were to be selected first, and Li Deyi planned to train two thousand cavalry first, and then slowly expand them. Although his plan is grand, it still has to be implemented step by step. Zhu Biao and Liu Ying followed behind Li Deyi throughout the whole process, acting as his little followers.

After the two thousand elite infantry soldiers were selected, they were to be sent to the cavalry battalion in Dingbei Horse Farm. Stay there, get along with the war horses day and night, first get acquainted with the nature of the horse, and then slowly start to practice riding.

The cavalry training of the Dingbei garrison regiment is different from other cavalry in the world, and the cavalry of the garrison regiment does not need to practice cavalry archery, and they have "gold brick stunts", so it saves a lot of trouble.

After sending the foot soldiers to the horse farm, there was no need for Li De to teach them from time to time, there were elite cavalry of the garrison regiment stationed there, and there were veterans who were specially used as instructors, so they would naturally train these 'recruits' on how to get along with the war horses and how to ride horses. After a while, when these foot soldiers can run on horseback, Li Deyi will go over and teach them to ride horses and slash and smash bricks with horses. Finally, they are trained to charge the wall-mounted assault that is unique to their garrison regiments.

In the next morning, Li Deyi took Zhu Biao and Liu Ying and rushed straight from Dingbei Racecourse to the Trade City.

After three years, this trade city has become a first-class prosperous place.

There are many wealthy merchants here, and there are shops everywhere, and the shops that Li Deyi originally built have long been sold out. In order to meet the world's wealthy businessmen who continue to come to the trade city to set up shops, the old doctor Sun has added the trade city several times. Today, the annual rent of shops collected by the Dingbei garrison from the trade city alone is as high as millions of silver coins.

This trading city has now become the largest horse market, salt market, and leather market in the northwest. In order to develop cavalry, the Dingbei garrison has always monopolized the horse market, exchanging a large number of tea with the Yi people for horses, and strictly prohibiting others from interfering. Due to the ruthlessness of the killing of the Dingbei garrison, although the interests of the horse market are huge, the wealthy businessmen only dare to look at them, but they dare not stretch out their hands.

That Deputy Head Li doesn't care which family you are behind you, he says that he will slaughter. It's not that there are no wealthy businessmen who want to take the lower-level route, buy off a few low-level officers, and quietly and secretly sell war horses. But it's a pity that the military regulations of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment are like iron, and the soldiers have a very high sense of honor, so they can't look down on the money sent by those wealthy businessmen.

After using ruthless means to deal with a group of black-hearted wealthy merchants who wanted to meddle in the horse market, the rest of the merchants no longer dared to fight the idea of the horse market.

After a few turns, Li Deyi suddenly found that the hardest money in the trade city today is not a silver coin, let alone a money, but a bill used for the bidding of wealthy business members when he established the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce.

The Dingbei Chamber of Commerce bill, which represents a standard of goods, has now become the most popular pass money in the trade city.

Each year, after the auction closes, the value of these notes increases significantly. Now, with the increasing prosperity of the trade city and the escalation of the war in the world, the value of these bills has increased year by year.

Nowadays in the trade city, it is often a big deal of millions of silver coins, so many silver coins have to be pulled by a dozen large carriages to be transported, so it is extremely inconvenient, and it is also quite unsafe.

But the ticket issued by the Dingbei garrison regiment was much more convenient. The note is now extremely valuable and has a stable exchange. With the strong combat power and reputation of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment as a guarantee, no matter when, as long as you take this bill and find the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment in the trade city, it will be cashed out to you immediately.

The leather armor and leather shields, hardwood bows, and other things that were cashed out of this bill were hard currency. For example, today's war is endless, the leather armor and leather shield made by the Dingbei Garrison Craft School are of high quality and are welcomed by all walks of life. Even the Tuliao State, before fully retreating from the grassland, liked to use the leather armor produced by the Dingbei Garrison Regiment to equip the cavalry of the capture army.

Therefore, the wealthy business members of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce often use these bills as temporary collateral to temporarily offset the payment. Later, when a silver coin is shipped, it will be exchanged back.

This greatly facilitated the trade between the wealthy merchants of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce, and attracted the covetousness of many people.

Seeing this situation in the trade city, Li Deyi suddenly thought about it.

During the three-year war abroad, many later wealthy merchants and wealthy families who did leather goods and salt businesses tried their best to inquire how they could join the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce.

But Li Deyi was not there, and no one dared to open his mouth to agree. Even many people who went to the three generals failed to join the chamber of commerce.

In the past three years, the first group of wealthy businessmen who joined the Chamber of Commerce really felt the power and benefits of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce. These wealthy businessmen with membership status are now walking the world, and no matter where they go, they are looked at by their peers and eagerly stammered.

Since all the goods of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment are only sold to the members of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce first-hand, they are equivalent to the exclusive agents of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, monopolizing the two most profitable businesses at present.

No matter how big a merchant wants to get a piece of the pie, he can only talk to the members of these chambers of commerce, because the Dingbei garrison group only does business with the members of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce, and only the members of these chambers of commerce have goods in their hands. If you want to talk to the Dingbei garrison group about business, you are not qualified if you don't have a membership of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce.

It is also very convenient for these members of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce to do business. The members of the chamber of commerce often exchange information and complement each other, which allows them to smoothly unite and drive up the price, make one big deal after another, and make extremely good profits.

In just three years, the net worth of many wealthy businessmen has more than doubled. You must know that the previous family business, but they spent decades of hard work in the north and south, overcoming many difficulties, and finally earned it.

The relationship between businessmen is very real, whoever has money, who has the way to make money, who has a noble status. The members of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce, the original few wealthy businessmen, have now become top merchants, with a very high status, and it is rare to see them in ordinary times.

Now, within the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce, the highest status is the old lady Gong. This old man is worthy of a lifetime of traveling south and north, and he has seen a lot of things. When Li Deyi said the condition of asking for protons, the old man of the palace didn't even think about it, and directly sent all his three favorite grandsons to the Dingbei garrison regiment.

Now, two of the three grandchildren of the old man Gong have become second-class soldiers. One likes to fiddle with some strange things because he was a child, and after being injured on the battlefield and retiring, he was sent to the Dingbei Craft School by Li Deyi, who was the master of the Craft School.

After returning from this expedition, the two grandsons of the palace master made great achievements, and with it, the status of the entire palace family in Dingbei County has been greatly improved.

The Gong family was also completely recognized by the Dingbei Garrison Regiment, and deserved the treatment that all second-class soldiers and military dependents should have.

With this layer of military status, the status of the old lady of the palace can be said to have jumped up. This made all the other wealthy businessmen envious, and they all wanted to find an opportunity to send their grandchildren to the Dingbei garrison.

It's a pity that the opportunity is gone. The official recruitment conditions of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment were extremely strict, and it was impossible for their grandchildren, who were accustomed to luxury, to be selected. And now, Li Deyi no longer asks them for protons. The rest of the members of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce were about to regret it, and they hated that they were reluctant to let their children and grandchildren suffer and lose that great opportunity in vain.

After Li Deyi walked around the trade city for a while, he was discovered by the families of several wealthy businessmen and quickly reported it.

Not long after, all the wealthy businessmen of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce came to the trade city to welcome the God of Wealth. Li Deyi is now in the hearts of the wealthy businessmen of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce, and he is the living god of wealth.

The wealthy businessmen of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce suddenly gathered in the trade city, and even the most noble palace old man hurried over, which caused the rest of the wealthy merchants in the trade city to look sideways, thinking that something big had happened.

"Who is that young man? Why is the old lady of the palace so respectful to him? A wealthy businessman asked Lu Yuanwai, who was sitting opposite, puzzled. After this wealthy businessman surnamed Lu made a fortune, he spent money to buy a casual job outside the staff, which can be regarded as improving his status. This kind of idle job appeared in the last years of the Ping Zhou Dynasty, when the imperial court finances were tight, and the last emperor of the Dou family began to sell this kind of idle job in order to collect money, which could be bought as long as it cost money. At the beginning of the Ping and Tang dynasties, in order to solve the financial problems, Li Shiluan followed this system. This system was also followed by the Pingming Kingdom.

Lu Yuanwai hurriedly stretched out his hand to cover the mouth of the benevolent brother in front of him, and said in a low voice: "Silence! You don't want to die. 'That young man', that's what you can say?! He is the deputy head of the Dingbei Garrison Regiment! On the same day, the Dingbei garrison regiment returned from a great victory, and I once saw this deputy regiment commander on the street. ”

The wealthy businessman was suddenly frightened, and he sat on the chair for more than an hour before he woke up.

A group of wealthy businessmen from the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce welcomed Li Deyi to the hall like stars holding the moon, and respectfully invited Li Deyi to take a seat.

Subsequently, a group of wealthy businessmen elected the old man of the palace as the leader and asked him to speak to Deputy Head Li on behalf of the members.

Now Li Deyi's power is rising, especially after defeating the Tuliao State and killing the Tuliao Emperor with his own hands, he is even more "prestigious" in the whole world.

When these wealthy businessmen of the Dingbei Chamber of Commerce saw Li Deyi, they trembled and didn't dare to raise their heads at all, let alone speak. Therefore, everyone simply elected the old lady of the palace who had a grandson serving in the Dingbei garrison regiment as a representative to talk to the deputy regiment commander.

The old man of the palace is now a military family member of the garrison regiment, and his treatment is naturally different. As soon as Li Deyi saw the old man of the palace coming over to speak, he stood up first and gave a military salute.

At this moment, all the wealthy businessmen present were red-eyed, but there was no way, who made himself short-sighted, and his children and grandchildren were not angry.

Master Gong hurriedly turned sideways, saying that he didn't dare.

Li Deyi: "Old man Gong doesn't have to be too humble, your two grandsons are very promising, and this time they have been fighting abroad for more than a year, and they have made great achievements." If I make another meritorious service, I will be promoted to a first-class soldier in the future, and I will inevitably enlighten him personally. ”
