Hu Laosan is quite happy now.

As an emerging profession in Wanghai City: a steam car driver, Hu Laosan is very comfortable every time he sees the envious eyes of the people around him.

The steam car is now the hottest thing in Wanghai City, and the steam car driver is naturally very popular with the Wanghai people, and the driver must choose from the sergeants, and the priority is given to the sergeants who were craftsmen before, Hu Laosan happens to be one of them.

Hu Laosan is quite satisfied with this job, all he has to do every day is to obey the order and drive the steam car to the designated place, in addition to this, he needs to report the condition of the steam car every day, which is very simple.

Just now, Hu Laosan sent a cart of coal to the dense forest transfer station, and now he is rushing back, at the end of the day, Hu Laosan almost has to run two or three times on Nanshan Road, two trips at least, three trips at most.

"It's a pity that the adults said that alcohol is not allowed." Hu Laosan touched the Moro fruit wine in his arms, this is his last pot, Hu Laosan is addicted to alcohol, every time he eats in the past, he has to pour a few sips, but later after the strict order, Hu Laosan no longer dares to drink during the day, only after dinner can drink a little.

This kind of unbelievable order was naturally given by Lin Bei, because once Lin Bei saw a sergeant drinking when he was adding coal to the steam engine, Lin Bei had a word in his mind at that time: drunk driving, so he gave this order, he was afraid that the sergeant would drive the steam car into the ditch.

The order was issued, no matter how ridiculous the sergeants thought, they still needed to be respected, anyway, Hu Laosan did not dare to disobey, for the current Wanghai people, Lin Bei is really like a god, they only know the dragon god, not the Son of Heaven.

Some coal was added to the steam engine, and Hu Laosan's face was a little blackened by the coal fire. Hu Laosan didn't mind, carefully dug out the cinders from it, and then put them into the wooden basket on the side, these cinders are to be used to make cement, not wasted, this is not an order from adults. Rather, some craftsmen sued them.

After getting the coal and covering the stove with iron sheets again, Hu Laosan's work was almost completed, and the coal in the stove was enough for the steam car to run to Wanghai City.

Suddenly, Hu Laosan blinked, and then quickly unscrewed the valve of the steam engine, which slowed down the speed of the steam car, because he saw a large number of beasts lying on the road in front of him, and these beasts were quite large. There was also a single horn on his head, lying on the road, almost occupying the road.

"So many rhinos? How did you get on the road? Hu Laosan was very puzzled, and at the same time a little anxious, so there was no way to make the steam car pass.

"Hahaha!!" Hu Laosan shouted, wanting to drive the rhinoceros away from these roads, and the rhinoceros herd hummed and looked at the steam carriage. Finally sensing the threat, several rhinos stood up. I walked to the side of the road and lay down again, but I really made room for a steam car.

The steam car slowly drove past the rhinoceros herd, Hu Laosan held the spear, and his palms were covered with cold sweat, for fear that these big guys would crash into the steam car. However, when the steam car drove by, the rhinoceros herd did not move, and it seemed that they had just come to bask in the sun on this road, and did not want to cause trouble.

As a true believer of Lord Ryujin.,And it's also a very plain sergeant.。 Hu Laosan naturally had to report this situation, and at the same time, when he encountered a steam car on the road, he would tell other drivers that there was a rhinoceros in front of him, and drive carefully

Hu Laosan's reminder was very effective, at least the steam car from Wanghai City to the dense forest transfer station did not have an accident, and then, Hu Laosan returned to Wanghai City.

Hu Laosan was about to report the matter to his Shangguan, but he saw the figure of Lord Longshen at the city gate, and he quickly stopped the car

Lin Beizheng was talking to Zhen Ping about the price of cement, the price of the bicycle was 300,000 gold, but the price of cement was at least ten times higher, Lin Bei's price was 5 million catties, and this price was unbearable for Zhen Ping.

"My lord, that's a lot of money." Zhen Ping was very embarrassed, after Lin Bei carefully explained the use of cement, Zhen Ping actually felt that cement was valuable, but Zhen Ping was not Zhen Rong, so he had to bargain.

"Is that still high? The cement method is simple, as long as you Zhen knows the method, you can make mountains of cement in a few days, and sell it to those strong and powerful at that time, and the return will be higher. ”

"Having said that, my Zhen clan can't come up with so much gold, what if it's like last time? How about I, Zhen, bring some people to the Central Plains for the adults to make money? ”

"People need it, money needs it, and besides, it's better to buy it with iron money."

"Iron money" Zhen Ping was speechless, now the money is worthless, but the iron money is too heavy, and Zhen Ping hardly brought it on the boat.

"What do you need iron money for?"

"Molten Iron Makes a Blade"

Zhen Ping was even more speechless, this adult's thoughts were really strange.

Just as he was talking about it, Lin Bei heard a voice calling him, and when he looked down, it was a sergeant: "What's the matter?" ”

Hu Laosan hurriedly saluted: "My lord, the villain just drove back from the transfer station in the dense forest, and saw some rhinoceros lying on the Nanshan Road, blocking the road, and the villain was afraid that something would happen, so he came to inform the adult." ”

"Oh? And what else is there? What is the number of rhino herds? ”

"About hundreds."

So much? Lin Beike remembered that the rhinoceros herd was not a group of beasts, so Lin Bei couldn't figure out why they went to the road, and thought for a while: "You go to He Ming and ask him to send some sergeants there to drive the rhinoceros herd away, and in addition, let He Ming also inform the steam driver to be careful of other beasts on the road." ”

"No"

After Hu Laosan left, Lin Beicai said to Zhen Ping: "How about the mention I just had?" ”

"My lord, I haven't brought the iron money now, how about I bring it for my lord next time?"

"That's right," Lin Bei said after groaning, "You Zhen should have a lot of ships, right?" ”

"Your Excellency is saying that you will pay for the money by boat?"

"Of course, you brought more than fifty big ships this time, although they are smaller than the big ships in my Wanghai City, but they are barely enough, so I allow you to use the ships to pay off your debts, and one ship will be converted into ten thousand gold? How is it? ”

Zhen Ping was dumbfounded: "My lord, I don't have many Zhen clans with this kind of big ship. The cost alone is tens of thousands of gold, and 10,000 gold is absolutely impossible."

"So expensive? Isn't it just some wood planks? 10,000 gold is cheaper for you. Lin Bei's voice was louder than Zhen Ping's.

Zhen Ping thought that Lin Bei really didn't understand, so he said patiently: "My lord, this kind of big ship is already the largest ship in the Central Plains, and it is not easy to make it, and a ship can really be worth 100,000 gold." ”

"Then you actually ran away with nearly five million gold. You're a tyrant enough, and you're not afraid that I'll rob you. ”

Zhen Ping naturally didn't understand what a local tyrant was, but just listening to the meaning and knowing it was not a good adjective, and said with a wry smile: "The villain can trust the adult." ”

Lin Beixin said that even I couldn't trust myself, but having said that, Lin Bei really couldn't pull his face to grab Zhen's ship, so he said: "Okay, a new ship can be worth 100,000 gold, but this is an old ship, and the old is not as good as the new." Let's get a 50,000 discount, how about 50,000 gold? ”

Zhen Ping gritted his teeth: "Ninety thousand gold, the other can only be worth forty boats, and I need to bring back other boats." ”

"Sixty thousand, no more."

"Eighty-five thousand gold"

"Why are you like this? 11,000 is coming, what is 5,000 gold? Let's take a median value, 70,000 gold. Okay, that's it. Forty ships, right? A total of 2.8 million gold, your Zhen still owes me 2.2 million gold, now, let's talk about giving me Wanghai City to get people. ”

Zhen Ping's brain was dizzy, he actually sold the boat like this? And also owed more than two million gold debts?

Lin Bei's mouth fluttered: "Let's follow this time, 300,000 gold to buy 2,000 people." One hundred and fifty gold per person, wow, this price is really too high, you Zhen has to make crazy money, the current homeless people in the Central Plains are not worth much. A dough cake can make them follow, Zhen Ping, you really make a lot of money. ”

"Two million two thousand gold, that's more than seven times, almost eight times, three times eight is twenty-four, even if it's 25,000 people, if you pull 25,000 more people over in the Central Plains, it's a flattening, but this time you can't come once in three months, it's shipped once a month, so it has to be transported for two years, Zhen Ping, do you think my algorithm is right? Arithmetic is still qualified, right? ”

Zhen Ping nodded subconsciously, and then felt that it was wrong, it was too wrong, but Lin Bei laughed: "Okay, since you also agree, then let's make an agreement, win-win, right, it must be a win-win." ”

Cement must be very valuable, but Lin Bei has already made up his mind to give cement to the Central Plains for free, and now he can make a lot of money from Zhen's and pit Zhen's forty big boats, Lin Bei is very happy.

Zhen smiled bitterly for a long time, and then admitted it, he thought about it carefully, in fact, Zhen didn't lose much, as Lin Bei said, now there are too many displaced people in the Central Plains, and you can buy a life by giving a dough cake, what Zhen needs to do is to transport people over, and then take care of some food during the period, a dime, the only thing to pay may be forty big ships, but as long as there are people, ships can be built sooner or later, and the most important thing in the Central Plains now is the homeless.

"Adults do know how to do business, and villains are ashamed of themselves." Zhen Ping said with a half-truth compliment.

As a merchant family, Zhen's status is actually not high, and there is no leader like Lin Bei who can pull down his face to talk about business with Zhen, but Zhen Ping came to Wanghai City twice, both were received by Lin Bei, and the business was also discussed by Lin Bei, Zhen Ping was very keenly aware that this Lord Dragon God did not look down on businessmen, and it was very pleasant to do business with Lin Bei, so Zhen Ping didn't mind complimenting Lin Bei.

"This Ryujin-sama is really good." Zhen Ping once again said to himself in his heart, he didn't have much contact with the Yuan family, so Zhen Ping felt that the Zhen family should actually have a good relationship with this dragon god lord, not the fourth world and the third prince, but unfortunately, this is just Zhen Ping's own thoughts.

Lin Bei was happy, and accepted all the compliments to Zhen Ping, and then thought of one person, so he asked, "By the way, how is Zhen Ding now?" ”

"The clan brother has already returned to the Zhen family, and now my Zhen family has moved the family business away from Wuji and went to Luoyang City, and now the situation in Luoyang is uncertain, and the patriarch is considering moving to Nanyang County." Zhen Ping did not hide Zhen's movements.

"Nanyang County? Oh, but now where Yuan Shao is? ”

"Exactly, the family of the fourth generation and the third prince of the Yuan family, the protégés and former officials are all over the world, and the patriarch thinks that there will be more stability."

Lin Bei looked at Zhen Ping and said with a smile: "I'm afraid it's more than that, right?" ”

Zhen Ping's heart froze, and he forced a smile: "Why did your lord say this? ”

"Didn't you Zhen think about supporting a hero? Ascend to the throne of the Son of Heaven? Your patriarch Zhen Rong is optimistic about Yuan Shao, right? Lin Bei then shook his head: "But it's a pity, Zhen Rong's vision is not very good." ”

"Why?" Zhen Ping asked casually, and then he felt speechless, smiled awkwardly, and then said simply: "Please let the adults know." ”

Lin Bei came casually, "Yuan Shao is a very timid person who is scheming and indecisive; In addition, Yuan Shao is a man who is wide on the outside and taboo on the inside, and he is not a good lord, even if Yuan Shao can win the world in the future, the first one to open the knife is you Zhen, because you Zhen is too rich. ”

The first few sentences that Lin Bei said were Cao Cao's evaluation of Yuan Shao, and the rest were summed up by later generations, especially Cao Mengde's evaluation, which hit the nail on the head, Yuan Shao is also because of this character, even if he sits on the land of several states, he can only defeat Cao Cao in the end, oh, and finally there is one more point, Yuan Shao is a person who can't afford to lose, Cao Mengde and Liu Bei both belong to the type of repeated defeats, but Yuan Shao will collapse as soon as he is defeated, and there is no heart to recover, if Yuan Shao is not born well, this guy is not even a green onion.

Zhen Ping and Yuan Shao had almost no contact, so they didn't know much about it, but Lin Bei's evaluation made Zhen Ping attach great importance to it, and secretly thought that he would write back to inform Zhen Rong when he went back, and after having this idea, his heart settled down a little, looking at Lin Bei, Zhen Ping suddenly asked, "What about the adults?" What do adults say about themselves? ”

Zhen Ping was quite curious.

Lin Bei was also stunned by Zhen Ping's question, evaluating himself? (To be continued......)
