Zhang Chu decided to meet Zuo Liangyu, and the people from the Bureau of Statistics immediately became busy, and the location of the meeting made them think a lot. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info It is necessary to make it easy for both parties to meet and ensure safety. The final location was chosen in an inn in Kaifeng City, this matter Yu Chunguang is not suitable to come forward, and he has nothing to do with Yu Ji Commercial Bank, so he must ensure the safety of Yu Chunguang and the Commercial Bank.

Zuo Liangyu didn't care much about the meeting place, Kaifeng City was still very safe for him, and the thieves had not been able to threaten Kaifeng so far.

Under the introduction of Ma Wanli, Zhang Chu finally met Zuo Liangyu, the future warlord of the late Ming Dynasty, Zuo Liangyu was only a dozen years older than Zhang Chu at this time, and was transferred back to Henan from the bloody battlefield outside the Guan, ready to open a new chapter in his life. The whole person looked high-spirited, coupled with the burly figure and handsome face, Zhang Chu immediately felt that his appearance was crushed again.

Wang Jijie and Zhang Chu stood in front of Zuo Liangyu, and Wang Jijie's standard businessman appearance appeared on this occasion and did not attract more attention from Zuo Liangyu. However, Zhang Chu was so young that he mixed with a big businessman like Ma Wanli, which made Zuo Liangyu look at him a few more times. Zuo Liangyu saw Zhang Chusheng's white and pure sven, but between his eyebrows, he inadvertently revealed a killing aura, which was a temperament that only people who had seen blood on the battlefield had. should not have appeared in this kind of businessman's child, Zuo Liangyu increased his vigilance against Zhang Chu.

"Everyone, it's rare to have such a good opportunity for everyone to get to know each other." Ma Wanli saw that the two sides were just observing each other and did not speak, and the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he immediately spoke out to solve the siege.

Zhang Chu and Wang Jijie met Zuo Liangyu and entered the inn together to discuss the transaction.

Samples of weapons and armor were brought in, and Zuo Liangyu carefully examined them one by one, and his eyes couldn't help but glow. He crawled out of the pile of dead on the battlefield and understood the importance of a sturdy piece of armor and a well-made sword.

Zhang Chu is very confident in his goods, these things are made in Zhongyang in the style of official and military armor, but in the production process, the steel made from the blast furnace, the tools driven by water power and the new process are not only beautiful, durable and durable, but also the production cost is greatly reduced. Zhang Chu also prepared to adopt the production method of the assembly line of the garment factory in later generations, which reduced the cost and did not require the technical level of a single worker. If a lot of them are sold, they will be able to solve the employment problem of many disaster victims.

Zuo Liangyu looked at it for a long time, then suddenly turned to Zhang Chu and Wang Jijie and asked, "Where did you get these armor and weapons?" ”

"We have always produced coal and iron in Shanxi, and these things are made by the hungry people in our organization." Zhang Chu replied calmly.

"Don't you know that the court is not allowed to make armor privately? I will deliver you to the government to punish you for your sins. Zuo Liangyu said sternly.

"Now the government still has the heart to take care of these things. Even if you send us to the yamen as a lieutenant, we will break a little money, and we will come out again in a few days. In that way, General Zuo lost an opportunity to strengthen himself, and a military general could only wag his tail behind the civilian officials and beg for mercy. Zhang Chu was unmoved and said very calmly.

"Hehe, I'm just kidding, since you two dare to come to see me, you won't be afraid of this." Zuo Liangyu saw that the intimidation failed, so he took back his words.

"Of course we know that the general is joking, and with the wisdom of the general, he will definitely not do such a stupid thing. Now that there is such a dispute today, the smoke is everywhere, and it is a good opportunity for the military generals to come forward, why don't the big husband take advantage of the situation and fight him to worship the marquis, it is better than being called by those useless literati. ”

"What's in it for you?" Zuo Liangyu understands that businessmen can't afford to be early, so it's better to ask these things to understand.

"This can make money. We can now hire homeless people for very low wages, and some even give them food, so although the price of selling these things to the generals is low, we still have some profits. In addition, we also want to connect with the general through this transaction and make a more profitable transaction together. Zhang Chu's words were still unhurried, but they had a stronger attraction to Zuo Liangyu.

"And a more lucrative deal?" Zuo Liangyu asked eagerly.

"Of course, what is most lacking in Shanxi now, what is most lacking is grain, if the general can sell us grain, wouldn't it be a big fortune." Food was the most precious thing in Shanxi at this time, the hungry people could live with food, and the righteous army could pull up the team when they had food. Even many soldiers in the official army were in a state of underfed.

"But I don't have any food in my hands." Zuo Liangyu thought to himself, just the little food in my hand is not enough for my soldiers to eat, so there is surplus food misappropriated.

"The general is the general of Henan soldiers and horses, and it is normal to collect grain from the locality, as long as you don't do things too much, it will not be too difficult for those landlords and squires to sell grain to the general cheaper." Zhang Chu was empathetic and came up with ideas for Zuo Liangyu. In fact, now the official army is not as good as thieves, and in the end, whether Zuo Liangyu goes to buy grain or rob it, Zhang Chuke has no ability to care.

"But now that the thieves have occupied the ferry, how can you transport the grain to Shanxi?" Zuo Liangyu still knows the war situation in Shanxi. Although Zhang Chu said it well, how to transition the mouth is a difficult problem.

"Then it's up to us. We make money, and we make money from this channel. "Zhang Chu looks like this is my way to make money, and I can't tell others.

"You have a connection to thieves?" Zuo Liangyu pressed forward step by step.

"There are some things that can't be said in too much detail." Zhang Chu acquiesced in Zuo Liangyu's statement.

"Hehe, I didn't expect Boss Zhang to be so young and so sophisticated." Zuo Liangyu slowed down his tone and said with a smile. He knew that these two people were not only connected to the thief, but also very close, but there was no way to do it. To pursue Zhang Chu and others is to give up their chances for promotion. He didn't want to nod to those civil officials for a few taels of silver.

"Everybody gets rich." Zhang Chu's face also returned with a smile, and he ate Zuo Liangyu's expression.

"Everyone is rich, and we will be able to make everyone rich if we cooperate with each other in the future." Ma Wanli, who was next to him, finally found an opportunity to interject.

Ma Wanli has been listening carefully to the conversation between Zhang Chu and Zuo Liangyu on the side, and he found that Zhang Chu used his friendship with the thieves to transfer goods through the thieves' control area is indeed a great opportunity to make a fortune, if the thieves do not let them go, the previous Jin merchants are afraid that they will not be able to do business, and if they want to cross the Yellow River crossing in the future, they will have to rely on Zhang Chu and others. The severance of transportation will raise the price of goods in both places, and those who can get by will of course become a cornucopia.

Zuo Liangyu excused himself for convenience, and found an opportunity to pull Ma Wanli aside and said: "I think the business that these businessmen in Shanxi are talking about, I think it can be done, how about you and I cooperate to make this fortune?" ”

"That's good, we take a little risk, and the benefits we get are completely enough for the general to train the troops." Ma Wanli also hoped in his heart that he could facilitate this deal, so that everyone would be tied together, not only would the business of weapons and food be profitable, but also the sale of salt would be more secure.

Ma Wanli relayed Zuo Liangyu's words to Zhang Chu, and Zhang Chu happily agreed. (To be continued.) )
