Mao Mao's father, Song Dakang, took the stage to accept the award with Mao Mao, in addition to a certificate written by the school and several sets of stationery, Xiaobei nine also took out a prize.

All the children who participated in the competition had all, and the prize was very single, money.

According to Xiaobei's words, it is useless to give other things, it is most practical to give money, everyone likes to buy what they like, if you don't plan to buy things for the time being, the money can be saved in the bank, or given to your parents.

Sure enough, Xiaobei's prize was the most popular, and the children clamored for Xiaobei to eat together at night and then go back.

There is still a long time before the time to eat, and on the one hand, the children's enthusiasm is retained, and on the other hand, there is time between dinners.

After some discussion, the nine people decided to 'work' directly in the academy, find Mao Mao's father, and Huanghuang's father, and talk to them about cooperation, and then they were able to finalize the plan to arrange short-term idle personnel.

Mao Mao's father, Song Dakang, was very nervous, afraid of revealing his stuffing, and when he met Xiaobei Jiuren, he looked around, and did not see the two people he might meet before, so the psychological pressure was much less, so he was not afraid that one of the other two people would have a problem.

Thinking of Huanghuang's father coming, Song Dakang knew that maybe he didn't need the other two people, the other two people had a limited role, and they were also assisting him in raising dogs, and now there were other large livestock breeders, and it was no problem to match with his dogs.

Looking at the nine little guys sitting on the opposite side with undiminished smiles, Song Dakang felt a lot of feelings in his heart, and thought silently. Little guys, you only know how to be happy now, how do you know how much thought Xiaobao and Juan Juan put into it for you?

I thought that I was good enough for the children in my family, and even a girl like Mao Mao spent money to hire someone to train her, or to cultivate a table tennis ball that seemed useless.

But compared to Xiaobao and Juan Juan, it seems that what he has done is still much worse, yes, a lot, and he puts his father's love on the bright side. When I found someone to accompany Maomao to practice, I also said to my daughter that if I didn't study hard, it would be a pity to be a father.

In the future, I want to learn, learn how Xiaobao and Juan Juan treat their younger brothers and sisters, it is nothing more than a little effort, raising children must be well raised, usually raising dogs also know patience training, children should pay more, not good to throw to the teachers of the academy.

"Hello. Song Dongjia, we came to you to negotiate a deal with you. "Xiaobei didn't know that the person in front of him was deliberately found by his brother and sister.

Xiaoyuan, they also don't know. Ever since they had been emotionally affected by only talking about working together for a few days, their older siblings had been thinking about how to divert their attention, so they had to casually say that there was a table tennis match today last night, and then a series of accidents would wait for them to meet.

Song Dakang took a deep breath, nodded, and looked at the door behind him, and saw that there were still no other two people, and after determining that the cooperation must be based on himself, he sat on the broad chair opposite Xiaobei. The cushion under the butt is as comfortable as the sofa, and you can lean against it.

With his hands on the armrests, Song Dakang also showed a professional smile and said, "I guessed the content of part of the cooperation, do you need to let me send the dog to the area that our army has occupied and ruled?" ”

"Would you like to have something?" Xiaobei didn't say anything about cooperation right away.

"Is there any wine?" Song Dakang is really welcome, he knows it. If you change a third-grade official to sit in front of you, you won't be so relaxed, of course, people may not be able to prepare a comfortable chair. Maybe it's a little maza or something, and then they sit high up, looking down at themselves, looking for pressure to be exerted during the negotiation process.

If it weren't for the worry in my heart and the fear of being recognized, there would be no pressure on the people of the Zhang and Wang families, not that I was disrespectful to others, but that the people of the Zhang and Wang families would feel too intimate.

Xiaobei was very generous: "Okay, there is white wine to drink this year, you sing, it feels stronger than red wine, don't drink too much." Shall we have some red wine? ”

Becky's last inquiry was to the other eight siblings, she was the most fond of wine, and since you got drunk once a year ago, you found it very interesting to be dizzy, and wanted to take two sips when you had the chance.

"Let's just drink juice and bring a little bit of wine jīng's shancha juice." Xiaohai didn't agree to his sister's request to drink red wine, usually his brother and sister gave a ration, and he could only drink two taels of wine in ten days, and he was not allowed to exceed half a tael at a time, this requirement was much stricter than drinking carbonated drinks, and the inner courtyard of the family did not dare to disobey.

As for liquor, unless you are sick and need some kind of medicine to mix it, you can drink it, but you can't drink that kind of disease specifically for the sake of drinking liquor, and the disease can be born if you don't want to be born.

"Okay." Xiaobei compromised, when he was outside, he had to listen to Brother Xiaohai's words, and Shancha drinks were fine, but he couldn't get drunk, so if he wanted to get drunk, he couldn't fit his stomach unless he was pushed to death.

Someone brought Song Dakang wine, as well as beef jerky, and ate it while talking, and the atmosphere of the negotiation was very relaxed.

Xiaobei took a sip of Shancha juice and said: "We have two ways to cooperate, one is to buy all your dogs directly, but I don't estimate that you will sell them, so we will provide you with a second cooperation plan, you use your dog as a shareholder, and we will pay other expenses, manpower and material resources, and dividends when the time comes." ”

Song Dakang didn't drink, and nodded directly: "I agree with the second option." ”

"So how many shares do you want? Do we need to give a statistic first? "Xiaobei and the others are not ready, such as the size of the pasture, where it is located, what is the growth of suitable grass, other follow-up protection measures, etc.

Therefore, Xiaobei and others discussed well, listened to Mao Mao's father first, saw if the other party had any reasonable suggestions, and then negotiated the increase or decrease in accordance with the conditions proposed by the other party, so that their side could be more active.

Song Dakang picked up his wine glass, took a sip of white wine, and inhaled. said: "It's really bigger than red, I didn't ask for it, you say how to cooperate, I will cooperate, even if you say to give my dog to you for nothing." ”

Xiaobei choked for a moment, licked her sweet lips, and kindly asked, "You're not afraid that we will lie to you?" What if you lose money? ”

"Don't be afraid." Song Dakang shook his head: "The two families of Zhang and Wang, the family is big, and they don't look down on me for this small business, you talk to me about cooperation." It's just thinking about making a little money for yourself, and you won't focus on me in a pit. I don't know how much space you want to occupy, but I know you need to be clear, and all the businessmen you work with are doing well. ”

"That'...... So we're an agreement? How do you feel a little uncomfortable? What kind of negotiation is this? It seems that we have to add the details as soon as possible, you can rest assured, we will not take advantage of you, cooperate normally, and calculate each other's pay and income.

If later we find out in the contract. If we suffer a little loss, then it will be cheaper for you. If you suffer a loss, you can change the contract again, and the money is earned from others when we work together, not from the collaborators, otherwise the money is not big enough. ”

Xiaobei looked at a few other people, and everyone felt that there was really nothing like a negotiation, just like chatting, one party had no conditions. One party has to take into account the interests of the other.

Xiaobei How did they know that the order Song Dakang received yesterday was not to discuss the details of the negotiation with Xiaobei and others, otherwise there would be two uncertain consequences, one was that Xiaobei and the nine people won the negotiation, and then they were full of confidence; The other is that the thought of negotiation makes me even more irritable.

Zhang Xiaobao is so good at psychology. can't tell which point he will gravitate towards, he won't gamble, he must let his younger siblings win a project comfortably.

There were three of them in cooperation before, if they didn't meet by chance. Then there will be other backhands soon, anyway, today, Xiaobei needs to travel on the road that meets again and again, and there are no accidents.

At the same time, the matter of surplus labor was arranged, and if the nine little ones in the stands had not been inspired by the conversation of the three people, there would be another person who would inadvertently enlighten them.

For Zhang Xiaobao, it is much more difficult to arrange a series of things than it is for him to negotiate with his younger siblings, encouraging education is the right way, and suppressing children is sometimes necessary, but at the same time, it is necessary to create opportunities for children to build confidence, which is actually a disguised encouragement education.

Xiaobei and they are in their brother's 'deception', making their own choices among countless accidental inevitabilities.

Kept in the dark, they began to chat with Maomao's father, waiting for Huanghuang and his father to come so that they could sign a simple agreement together, and then let people write down the details and everyone sign the contract again.

It didn't take too long, Huanghuang's father was called, along the way he already knew what happened, he didn't take his son's childhood sweetheart partner very seriously, the child is still young, not sensible, maybe it will change when he gets older, who can decide the future.

But he really hopes to cooperate with Zhang and Wang's family, and then his cattle and sheep will get more benefits, but he has no bottom about the negotiations he will face, how much benefit should he seek?

The people I want to talk about now are nine children, I have never seen them, I heard others say, they are very smart, but I think I will definitely not be able to get around myself during the negotiation, do I take this opportunity to take advantage of more?

I'm afraid, their children can't get around themselves, and after signing the loss-making contract back, their brother will deal with him personally, even if he doesn't modify the contract, it is estimated that he will want to make money in this transaction, who knows how many means Xiaobao has? No matter how detailed the contract is, it can't seal all the loopholes, right?

Struggling in his heart, Huanghuang's father rushed all the way to the place, and was just invited into the house, Mao Mao's father Song Dakang hurriedly stood up and said to him enthusiastically: "Li Xiaogang, you can nod your head if you come in time, I just said, I don't mention any conditions, I believe that the Zhang and Wang families will not act badly."

Now that you're here, hurry up and sign with me, set the initial intention, and then wait to get rich, Xiaobei They want to make a big deal, yes, you drink some wine first, this wine is good, the more you drink, the more sober your head is. ”

It was Huanghuang's father who was called Li Xiaogang by Song Dakang, and he was still thinking about what to do before he came, and when he heard what his old friend had known for many years, he understood it thoroughly.

The other party does not allow him to negotiate conditions with Xiaobei Jiuren, and he wants to be the same as the other party. Directly agreed, but after so many years of understanding, the other party must not be talking nonsense, and guarantee that there is something wrong in it, but it is not good to say it now.

Especially when he said that he let himself drink, the more he drank, the more sober he became, he was saying to himself, don't be confused, is it Xiaobei that they want to directly annex their own property? The kind of force?

No, Xiaobei, they are not short of money. What's more important is that I didn't do anything wrong, I donated all the money that should be donated, and the roads that should be repaired were also repaired, and I didn't bully people at ordinary times, let alone buy and sell.

If they blatantly rob it, their brothers and sisters will not agree.

Thinking in his heart, Li Xiaogang was pressed to another chair by Song Dakang, and handed over another glass of wine, without any suggestive expression on his face. It's just that when the wine is handed over, it is sent heavily, and the power is transmitted to Li Xiaogang's hands.

"Taste it. Let everyone wait for you, it should have been punished, for the sake of you coming over as soon as you know the news, I will respect you, and I will cooperate more in the future. Song Dakang joked with a smile again.

Li Xiaogang nodded vigorously, signaling the other party to understand, don't toast, don't eat, eat and drink.

Drinking all the wine in the cup in one sip, and exhaling a long breath, Li Xiaogang turned to Xiaobei Jiuren. said with a smile: "It's the same as Dakang said, I came here to sign, press the handprint, and let you bother with the rest." ”

"You can talk about the conditions." Xiaobei kindly persuaded.

"My condition is unconditional, can't I trust others, can't I trust you? Don't say it's cooperation, even if you just ask me for some livestock, I'll send it to you right away. Even the forage is built. Li Xiaogang was no longer entangled in the content of the negotiation, and the whole person became relaxed.

"All of them are so easy to talk to, okay, let's draw up a contract. When the time comes, let you see, which place is not good, let's change it, it's not a big deal, let's go to India and raise livestock in the original place where many cannibals were born, and the grass over there is good.

If you find that the yield of beans, wheat, and rice on a certain piece of land is much higher than that in China, you can also grow one kind, and then you can squeeze oil and make wine, and ship it back at a price similar to that of the local area, and the profit will be great, because there is no tax. ”

Xiaobei looked a little embarrassed when he saw that people didn't mention the conditions, so he introduced a few more sentences.

As soon as she introduced, Li Xiaogang became interested and asked: "Xiaobei, if you ship it back, there will be a lot of freight, right?" ”

"Not much, go to the river first, just downstream, and then go to the sea, a boat does not need too many people to be busy, a round trip is nothing more than a delay of some time, soybean oil and wine are stored for a long time, will not spoil. In fact, as long as the rice and wheat are not immediately hulled, it is no problem to put them for two or three years at will, and there is no need to use special storage methods.

You need Datang's things over there, as long as you are not in a hurry, you don't need to use land transportation, just a little bit of daily necessities, and a boat can load a lot. We have steam engine power.

And even if we don't want to transport, the ships have to go in a row, and we all listen to our brothers and sisters, whether it's Duoshi or a bunch of countries like India, we try to use water transportation. ”

Xiaobei solved a contract problem and was very happy, so he revealed more content that ordinary people can't understand.

"That ......"

"What more do you ask? Sign the contract and you're done. Song Dakang looked at Li Xiaogang and asked, and said with a slightly impatient look.

"I don't ask about contracts, I want to know more about what I don't know. Can you get in touch with what they said? Knowledge, listen and watch more, think more, right, Xiaobei, your wine is really delicious. Li Xiaogang glared back at Song Dakang, and then asked with a smile at Xiaobei.

He did report the intention of listening to more key news, but he didn't know that Xiaobao and Juan Juan wanted people to open a ranch over there, let alone that it was tax-free, as for why it was to strengthen water transportation instead of land, he had to ask again.

Xiaobei didn't answer Li Xiaogang's words immediately, beckoned, called the inner courtyard serving next to him to his side, whispered a few words, and then nodded to the inner courtyard, turned around, and showed Li Xiaogang a bright smile, and said, "Okay, ask, I asked Dongsheng just now, do you know what you can say and what you can't say." ”

At this moment, both Song Dakang and Li Xiaogang liked Xiaobei from the bottom of their hearts, don't look at people laughing, do things very steadily, and don't even taboo themselves as two outsiders, and frankly say that she has to ask the inner court first if she has something, which means that she exposed the fact that she is also controlled.

Ordinary children are not like this, take the subordinates of the family out, not to mention take the initiative to ask the subordinates what they can say and what they can't say, even if the subordinates remind them they will be unhappy.

"It's a pity. It's not good to be raw. Li Xiaogang muttered very quietly.

When Song Dakang heard this, he shook his head, and said in his heart that you can't teach as well as others, do you know what happened when I came to talk about cooperation? I'll tell you when I get back, so that you can see for a long time.

"Don't you want to ask, now ask." Song Dakang also wanted to hear it, but he didn't think about what to ask.

Li Xiaogang pondered, he had to think about it, he couldn't ask directly about military operations, and he couldn't ask about Datang's logistical shortcomings. That wouldn't make it possible for others to think about it anywhere else.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Xiaogang asked, "Why don't you use the land route?" Isn't it easy to get to polyphagia from the previous Turks? Then there were many cannibals who built roads for the convenience of the army when they circulated their own goods and ruled. ”

"What do you use to transport it by land?" Becky asked rhetorically.

"Cattle." Li Xiaogang replied happily.

Xiaobei waved his hand: "It's better to use livestock for transportation than for farming, our domestic logistics are not enough, and we have to send them out?" Boats are much more convenient, and you can't use them to farm, right? The ship can't reach any of the other side in the country, right?

Transporting livestock by land to that side is no problem in terms of the use of logistics resources, and no one can find fault with it. Correct. Yes, that's according to the distribution of all resources in the country. It will inevitably lead to the problem of unreasonable allocation of transportation and labor resources, right? ”

Li Xiaogang looked at Xiaobei in surprise, and then turned his head to look at Song Dakang, who was also surprised, the two of them were very clever and thought of one thing at the same time, is it a child in front of them? The words that come out of your mouth are too scary.

Regardless of what they thought, Xiaobei continued: "There are two other problems, in fact, it can be said that there is one problem, that is, the advantage of using ship transportation is that it can train captains and crews, as well as the development of shipbuilding.

After they get stronger. Being able to build a better ship, being able to travel a boat farther, and being able to reduce mistakes when it is done earlier, skilled workers are a precious existence in any industry.

The following is another major problem, we have livestock on land at any time, but it is difficult to walk on land, there are mountains, water, swamps and so on. In the future, when we invade other places, oh no, when we conduct commercial and military exchanges with other places in the future, we will need more of a navy. Wrong, it is the support of the marine transportation industry.

My brother and sister said that there are many places where the land is not passable, and it is all seawater, so don't you think about the future now? For example, the seeds that my family sent people to bring back from far, far away places are only a small part, and they have also crossed the sea, and it is very cold.

If our fleet is strong enough, we can go directly through a sea and get there, bring more things back, and even send people there to rotate and develop, stay for a year or two and come back, not only to gain knowledge, but also to train people. ”

Song Dakang and Li Xiaogang were already stupid, nodding their heads again and again, as if the students were listening to the teacher's lecture, and for a moment, they chose to ignore Xiaobei's age.

It turns out that a water transport involves a lot of things, and the height of the station is really different, and the angle of considering the problem is also different.

Could it be that Xiaobao and Juan Juan usually indoctrinate these things in their younger siblings? I'm not afraid of tiring the child, such a calculation, many officials in the imperial court can't think of it, right?

"That'...... So why not let people stay elsewhere for a few more years? As you just said, using boats regularly can promote the development of the shipping industry, and wouldn't others have a better understanding of the local area if they stay in other places for a few more years? Song Dakang followed up and asked.

"I'm afraid of dú lì, I took a boat for a few months to pass, a group of people in the past, in fact, called colonization, they have been in local time for a long time, and the relationship between the local aborigines is better, and they have obtained some of the technology of the Tang Dynasty, and they will inevitably feel that it is not cost-effective to listen to the words over there so far away, and on impulse, they dú lì."

Becky explained.

"If you dare to dú lì, you will fight." Li Xiaogang said fiercely.

"Idle? Giving others a chance to make a mistake is itself making a mistake, and the improvement of the system is actually to reduce the possibility of people committing crimes when they face temptation, right? You can't always try to make others realize.

Just like the matter of loans, I have already asked people to investigate just now, Song Dongjia can actually borrow money from the bank, and the share is quite a lot, even if there is no collateral, you can directly borrow up to 4,000 yuan.

Why? Just because he started to invest money in the Chaoyang operation many years ago, he relied on him to build bridges and repair roads. According to my brother, a person with a sense of social responsibility has a certain credibility in his own right.

So I've always wanted the local businessmen to prop up the academy and then give them benefits. Now it looks like an exchange of interests, and after a long time, it will gradually develop a habit. I am sad for businessmen who are not willing to spend this money, but I can't catch them and punish them, they are not wrong, I can only induce businessmen to invest money through other benefits. ”

After Xiaobei said this, he remembered that some local businessmen said that he would not spend money on the school, and sighed like an adult, his face full of helplessness. Although when she sighs, it makes people feel cute no matter how she looks at it.

Song Dakang and Li Xiaogang looked at Xiaobei's cute appearance, but they were not happy at all.

Li Xiaogang drank another glass of wine and said indignantly: "Some businessmen are just ignorant, they only consider that the court has set a rule, they don't break the rules, as for paying more, that's not good."

According to me, it's stupid, Dakang invests money in the school, he really likes children. I voted, too, but I don't like kids. I only like my children, and I invest money to show off. Let others see, I do a big business, do a good job, I have money, you say that you make a lot of money, and you return home, don't you give others some benefits?

The rich people in the village also know how to build a good house, I make money, and I invest some money in the school. Isn't it better to be praised by others than just repairing a house for yourself? I don't even talk about loans, I just say that I give money to the school, and one day something happens to my family, who takes my benefits and can't do anything? ”

Replaced by Xiaobei nodded, Xiaoyuan and they were just as surprised, people's ideas are too simple, I will spend money to let your child go to school today. Tomorrow my child falls and you have to carry it back for me, you owe me, it's a typical idea of coercion and revenge, but you say he's wrong. He's really right, because he gave favor first, and you get benefits from others, but you can't repay them?

A simple exchange of benefits in social behavior, simple, real, and always working. That's why people hate ingratitude and revenge.

"Okay, I support you to continue to think like this, you know the problem of colonization, what else do you have to ask, there is no such shop in this village after this village, we can't tell you every time."

Xiaobei asked Song Dakang and the others again, they are in a good mood today, talk about it more, as long as they don't tell the things that really need to be kept secret.

"I'm gone." Song Dakang didn't think much, he was a little more 'stupid' than Li Xiaogang. But he caught up with the good times, and his little dog in another era was long gone.

"I have." Li Xiaogang sat upright: "What I ask is, you only consider the situation of colonial rebellion, so what can you do to prevent man-made rebellion in far away places, and to achieve greater benefits there?" ”

"Huh~? It involves the research and application of science and technology, and now you see a ship with a steam engine, and in the future, there will be not only a ship, but also ...... What else can't I tell you, anyway, if you want to go there from Datang in the future, it won't take a few months, just a few days.

The length of the colonist's stay in the local area depends on the time of travel between the two places, the gap between the military technology of the colonial side and the military technology of the Tang Dynasty, and whether there is a comprehensive foundation for social development at that time, including the monetary system. ”

Xiaobei explained again that she actually wanted to say more, but she remembered this, she usually listened to her brothers and sisters talk like small talk, but in fact, if you listen carefully, there are many meanings in it.

Li Xiaogang was hearing what was better than the boat, when suddenly people went around, it was very uncomfortable, but he accepted it, obviously the words he was going to say were not suitable for him to hear.

Looking at the wine in the wine glass, Li Xiaogang shook his head: "I have no problem, since it is a cooperation to open a ranch elsewhere, do you need how many people do I need?" They all have a business in their home. ”

Xiaobei didn't answer immediately, but got together with others to discuss in a whisper, a quarter of an hour later, when Li Xiaogang was a little confused, Xiaobei sat down again, and said: "No, we can't occupy too many resources, our identity doesn't allow it, what we can do is to go over first and give others a sample, but we can't monopolize it." ”

"And what else do you need us to do?" Li Xiaogang wants to take a closer step to get a good relationship.

"You guys? You raise livestock, right? Xiaobei asked, and when he saw the other party nodding, he said happily: "Yes, it's really good to raise livestock, ...... tomorrow No, tonight, you call your breeding technician over and come to my restaurant, I have something for them to do. ”

"What about me?" Song Dakang asked.

"You...... You raise your dog well, it is estimated that there are still three months, or about five months, your family can just let the dog breed again, don't be afraid to spend money, I will give it to you, the more dogs, the better, people can't be busy after all. Xiaobei gave Song Dakang instructions again.
