Chapter 34 Business
Bai Qi stopped Cheng Chumo, who wanted to rush over, and looked at Situ Hao with playful eyes: "Situ Hao, who gave you the guts, a small businessman, who actually dared to meddle in the affairs of the Tang military?" ”
"Master Hou, you misunderstood! What Ziping wants is only the civilian part of the output, as for what the money is used for and how to do it, Ziping will never interfere! Situ Hao stood up and replied respectfully. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Bai Qi squinted his eyes and looked at Situ Hao, his mind turning. In this era, Situ Hao, as a businessman, does have advanced business tentacles. It's just that he took too big a step, not to mention that Li Shimin would not agree, and he would never do it. The R&D funds of the Weapons Development Department of the Cloud Breaking Army can only be provided by the Datang military itself, and must not be stained with other elements, which is the most basic requirement for the protection of military secrets!
The development department is now only dismantling the useless part of the research and removing the military part, selling it to businessmen to recover the cost. This is the practice in the early stage, and after the Datang tax comes up, the civil part will be gradually separated and independent in the later stage, but the core research results will never be sold, such as the development of the hydraulic machine tool in the deep hydraulic workshop.
Of course, when these research results are replaced by more advanced ones, they can be considered to be sold to other countries in exchange for some benefits for Datang!
Bai Qi shook his head: "Situ Hao, for the sake of you being a friend of Yan Fatzi, and you have also done some beneficial things for the Tang Dynasty military, I will not talk about this matter to the outside world, and you should not have such thoughts anymore, otherwise you will really become a dead local tyrant!" He walked over and patted the pale Situ Hao: "You tell me, who told you this advice?" ”
Situ Hao's face was like a blank piece of paper, he was patted on the shoulder by Bai Qi, and sat on the chair with a snap, he turned his head and said to the old man behind him: "Uncle Long, go back and remove the new shopkeeper Wang and send it to the Hou Ye's Mansion!" ”
"Yes, young master!" Uncle Long bowed and retreated, leaving a family member, and then took the others and hurried back.
"Well, so we can talk about other things." Bai Qi returned to his seat with a smile, and at the same time silently persuaded the fierce and vicious Cheng Chu to sit back, looking at the young rich second generation slowly, thinking in his heart.
The first time I met a fool from Datang, I am still a rich second generation, I am sorry for myself! Bai Qi roared wildly in his heart, but his face was as calm as water.
Situ Lao Ghost is a well-known rich man in the Tang Dynasty business circle, with various businesses including restaurants, brothels, and dart boards at hand, and he is the leading business boss in Chang'an, and he is also rarely famous in the south. When he was in his forties, his eighteenth concubine gave birth to a son, and on the same day she named him Situ Hao.
Now Situ Hao began to slowly take over the family business, and the shopkeeper Wang was introduced by an acquaintance when he was in Luoyang at the beginning of the year.
"Ziping, go back and let your father check the accounts of this year!" Bai Qi said as he drank tea.
Situ Hao's body trembled, and he didn't know if he was trembling with anger because he was betrayed by someone he trusted, or because he was trembling with fear because of what happened. He gritted his teeth and said, "I still remember the appearance of the widow who recommended the shopkeeper to me at that time, and I will definitely find out that guy when I go back!" ”
Bai Qi sighed softly, looked at Situ Hao thoughtfully, and did not make a sound. For a while, the living room became quiet, and even the people outside carefully slowed down when they passed by, and the sound of Cheng Chumo drinking tea in the teapot was particularly loud.
"Ziping thanked Master Hou!" After a long time, Situ Hao stood up, bent down with his fists and said to Bai Qi, who was sitting on it: "Ziping was confused for a while, he was confused by outsiders, and he almost did something harmful to my Datang, please punish Master Hou!" ”
Bai Qi squinted his eyes, looked at Situ Hao, and suddenly laughed happily. Cheng Chumo looked at Bai Qi's sincere smile from the side, and his heart couldn't help but tremble, every time a madman showed this kind of smile, it meant that someone was going to be unlucky!
Bai Qi walked in front of Situ Hao, grabbed his hand, helped him up, then patted him on the shoulder, laughed and said, "Ziping, you are also bewitched by traitors, how can this marquis punish you?" Come, I just want to ask someone for help, and it's best if you come! ”
Bai Qi took Situ Hao's hand, and without saying anything, he took him and Cheng Chumo through the pavilions and came to a very large house. Pushing open the room and stepping inside, I saw three rows of large cabinets placed in the room, and there was paper pasted in front of each cabinet, on which were written things that Situ Hao and Cheng Chumo had never heard of, such as "Britain, the United States, the Arctic, the Azera Continent" and so on.
Cheng Chumo and Situ Hao curiously stepped forward to open the cabinet, took out the large piece of wood inside, and fiddled with it for a long time, but still didn't know what it was for.
Bai Qi smiled and led the two of them through the cabinet and walked to the back, only to see a huge sand table on the ground, on which there were hills, rivers, forests, deserts, plains and glaciers and other terrains, and on both sides of the sand table, there were two golden boxes on each side. When the box is opened, it contains models of cavalry, infantry, archers, and other troops.
Cheng Chumo somewhat understood, but he still didn't understand why White Chess wanted to bring Situ Hao here, because it is also a military secret here.
Situ Hao also looked at Bai Qi with some puzzlement and said, "Master Hou, why did you bring Ziping here?" ”
"That's the business I'm going to talk to you about." White said talkatively, pointing to the entire sand table, then took out a model of a soldier from the box and put it on the sand table, and said: "This kind of game, I call it a war chess game!" ”
The war chess game is actually an idea that suddenly came to Baiqi when he created the Cloud Breaking Army and designed the first sand table, which was used to cultivate the military ability of officers. He has seen the military strategies and marching methods of this era, and he admires Li Jing's military acumen very much, but when Li Jing's generation goes, who will take over?
It is undeniable that in the future, there will be some famous generals such as Liu Renliang and Xue Rengui, but on the whole, they are no longer as good as today's generation. So, since one general is not as good as Li Jing, will the brainstorming of three, or even more, be worse than Li Jing? After all, three stinkers are better than Zhuge Liang!
Of course, what is given to Situ Hao will not involve real military aspects, and all the sand table maps, most of the troops, will not exist in reality. For example, the sandbox map will follow the maps of various games that appeared in the later generations of white chess, as well as maps that combine a single terrain or multiple terrains; As for the types of troops, in addition to the existing infantry and cavalry, it also includes most of the arms that appeared in later generations, such as the air force and artillery, which people in this world could not understand.
Those sand tables that are really used for military purposes, and truly record the terrain of the surrounding countries and the territory of the Tang Dynasty, as well as the models of the actual combat arms, have been sent to the palace and the staff headquarters of the Cloud Breaking Army, where Cheng Yanjin sent people to guard them closely, and it is estimated that they are now studying them.
"Master Hou, this is ......" Situ Hao pointed to the sand table, his face full of doubts, and Cheng Chumo over there had already begun to put a cavalry in the sand table, playing with great interest.
Bai Qi handed a thick book to Situ Hao, with the words "Instructions for the Rules and Calculation Methods of War Chess Games" written on the cover, and he also opened another box and began to play with Cheng Chumo.
Situ Hao flipped through this manual, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became, the more he looked at it, the more fascinated he became, he really couldn't imagine a simulated map, plus less than a hundred troop models, there are so many ways to play, it can be said that the longer a game of war chess is played, the more the weather, the morale of the soldiers, etc., the greater the change, really like the battlefield, ever-changing, very test people's intelligence and patience.
Raising his head, Situ Hao looked at the sand table, when the two armies were clashing with each other, constantly entangled in a small sand table, he suddenly said: "General Cheng Xiao, use cavalry and machine gunners as cover, immediately withdraw the artillery to the high ground next to it, and carry out indiscriminate three-dimensional bombardment of the enemy army!" ”
Cheng Chumo glanced at Situ Hao, and then did as he said, and sure enough, he wiped out a large wave of white chess!
Bai Qi raised his head and glanced at Situ Hao, and said with a smile: "Ziping has already read the manual, what do you think?" ”
"Master Hou, how to do this business?" When it comes to business, Situ Hao has completely changed as a person, which makes Cheng Chumo can't help but take a look at it.
"I want to build a war building in Chang'an City, which is specially used for war chess games, and war chess competitions will be held in it from time to time." Bai Qi poured tea for everyone from the table next to him, took a sip, and continued: "The ordinary sand table is sold with a set of class models, and the more advanced sand tables, such as the map sand table with a mix of multiple terrains such as the Azela Continent, and the more advanced classes, need to have a certain permission to buy. ”
"Permissions?" Situ Hao's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something.
Bai Qi smiled: "That's right, the permission is based on the membership level, and the member is based on his consumption in the war chess!" At the highest level, you will be able to directly purchase all types of sand tables and class models in the Warbox! ”
Situ Hao's eyes lit up completely, he looked at Bai Qi with admiration, and exclaimed: "The battle tower will face the rich children in Chang'an City, and it is really good to earn their money!" ”
Bai Qi smiled, yes, those gentlemen in Chang'an, all of them are very rich, and they pretend to be poor, so that the moldy copper coins in the warehouse can be taken out to bask in the sun, which can be regarded as making some contributions to the Tang Dynasty.
Bai Qi took out a heavy contract from the drawer, handed it to Situ Hao and said, "Ziping, the contract is here, you go back and take a look, if there is no problem, sign it later!" ”
Situ Hao glanced at the contract in his hand with wide eyes, and then blinked: "Master Hou, do you know that I will come?" After saying that, he shook his head in disbelief, he arrived in Chang'an yesterday afternoon, and he didn't even know his itinerary today, how could this little marquis know!
Bai Qi smiled and didn't answer, would he tell Situ Hao that this business was approved by Li Shimin, and the contract was also seen by Li Shimin, and twenty percent of the income in it was for himself, and the other forty percent of the income was from the inner government? It is estimated that when he said it, Situ Hao was immediately frightened and rushed out of the door, and he never dared to sign this contract again!
