Chapter 356: Each family is out of the house
Li Yu's last words finally understood everyone present, and everyone was in a state of shock for a while, among which Cheng Huailiang shouted loudly: "Liulang, if you had said this earlier, wouldn't we understand, why do you still say anything about coinage?" ”
Li Su couldn't cry or laugh after hearing this, he wanted to explain this matter more clearly, so that they could all understand how to make money, but he didn't expect Cheng Huailiang and these martial artists to only make money, as for how to make money, they didn't care at all, everything was arranged by Li Su, but this also made Li Su a little complacent, it seems that his credit has been recognized by the brothers in the palace.
"Liulang, since the Wa Kingdom is next to me, then I will immediately write to my grandfather and ask him to let us stay here for a while longer, and then lead the army to the Wa Kingdom and take their silver mountain into our hands!" At this moment, Li Yexu also stood up and said that his grandfather Li Jing was the vice principal of the military academy, so he naturally had the power to decide whether they would go or stay.
However, after hearing this, Li Su shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "Brother Yexu, although all the brothers here are brave and brave, and all of them are talented generals, but you all know the situation here, even if you want to attack the Japanese State now, there are really no soldiers available in your hands!" ”
Li Su is not lying, when he went to Silla, he only had 15,000 slave catchers in his hands, and later borrowed 20,000 from Zhang Jian one after another, but after destroying Baekje, the 20,000 people were returned one after another, and only the 15,000 people were left in his hands, and now they are guarding Samhanju, and Cheng Huailiang and they are now serving as generals in this army, so they all know that Li Su is telling the truth. After all, Sanhanju has just been pacified, and the 15,000 people alone are already very reluctant. Not to mention being sent out to attack the Wa Kingdom.
Thinking of this, Cheng Huailiang and the others were also silent for a while. Although they are all confident that they are good generals, no matter how good a general is, it is useless to let him command without soldiers under his command, and they can't let them kill the Japanese country single-handedly, right?
Seeing the people who couldn't think of a way for a while, Li Su laughed secretly in his heart, and coughed to attract everyone's attention, and then he spoke: "Brothers, everyone knows the situation here, and I really can't mobilize manpower." But I've thought about it these days, and I've come up with a way to do it, but I need your support. ”
As soon as he heard Li Su say this, Li Jingye, who was most familiar with him, rolled his eyes, seemed to have guessed something, and immediately stood up and said: "Liulang, don't sell Guanzi, since you announced the matter of gold and silver owned by the Japanese state, you must have thought of a way." As long as we can do it, we will never shirk! ”
Li Jingye's words reminded Cheng Huailiang and the others, and they all stood up to express their positions, and at the same time laughed and scolded Li Su and played with them. And Li Su also smiled when he heard it, and said loudly: "Everyone, in fact, it's not me who sells it. It's just that this matter does need everyone's help. ”
When Li Su said this, he stopped and glanced at the people in the hall. Then he spoke: "Most of the brothers are behind the generals, and there must be a lot of generals at home. In addition, the elders of the brothers' family have served in the army for many years, and there must be a lot of old subordinates of the year, these people must have been unsatisfactory after they quit the army for various reasons, so I want you brothers to go back, and gather the generals of the family, as well as the veterans who have been discharged, how many can be, and then send them to me, presumably there will be at least tens of thousands of troops by then, with these people, it may be slightly insufficient to destroy the Japanese country, but it is still very easy to occupy the silver mountain near the sea. ”
After Cheng Huailiang and the others heard Li Su's words, they all looked at each other, no one expected that Li Su would actually hit the head of their family's subordinates, and even those veterans who had retired from the army did not let go, which could be called a scrape. But if you think about it carefully, this is not a good way, the family is also raised, they are originally for the sake of the family, as for those veterans, there are indeed some unsatisfactory times, if you spend money to invite them, not only can you help them solve the problems in life, but also can give full play to their strengths, it can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Seeing that Cheng Huailiang and the others were still thinking about the gains and losses of this matter, Li Su suddenly said again: "Brothers, there is only one silver mountain in the Japanese country, although we are all brothers, but we also have to settle accounts, so I have to talk to the front, if the silver mountain is knocked down this time, then it will be divided according to the proportion of each family's troops, which family has more troops, and which family has the best quality of soldiers, then you can occupy a larger share!" ”
Hearing Li Su say this, Cheng Huailiang and the others couldn't help it anymore, and they all agreed to this matter, and at the same time made up their minds to write a letter to their families tonight, so that the family could prepare as soon as possible, and strive to recruit as many people as possible before everyone.
After talking about such an important matter, Cheng Huailiang and the others were a little absent-minded, so the banquet ended hastily. But the next day, they all came to the door again, and with the help of Li Su and Chang'an's communication system, they helped them bring a letter to their home, and as for the content of the letter, they could guess it without reading it.
relocated the people, transferred the Silla army, organized Kunlun Nu to train troops, and then persuaded Cheng Huailiang to send them. This is a series of things that Li Su did after arriving in Siyu City, except for the first thing, the other few things are all to deal with the Wa State, although Li Su is using the silver mountain of the Wa State to lure Cheng Huailiang and them to send troops, but in his heart, he is not satisfied with just occupying a silver mountain, and if he wants to fight, he will fight and draw, procrastination is not his style.
The relocation of the people in South Korea went very smoothly, and Wang An was in charge of this matter at first, and then after getting on the right track, Wang An and Lu Hong began to travel back and forth between Dengzhou and Si Xuan, helping Li Su to organize the conquest of grain and grass materials for the Japanese State.
The bustling port of Dengzhou is filled with ships that come and go, each loaded with a full load of goods, and there are also a number of special ships that carry people, which are fixed between the two ports and generally set off as soon as they are full.
It's just that compared with the past, Dengzhou Port has been busier these days, mainly from the news from Si Yu City across the sea, the local people in South Korea have been moved to North Korea, China and South Korea by His Royal Highness King Qi, and now South Korea has been completely open to Tang merchants, that is to say, factories that could not be set up in South Korea before, such as shipyards, steel mills, weapons factories and other heavy industries, can now be opened.
As soon as this news came out, many factory owners were red-eyed, especially the businessmen who used to run steel mills, although there are also minerals such as coal and iron around Dengzhou, but the output is not very much, but there are a lot of coal and iron mines found in Andong Metropolitan Protectorate, so the steel mills in Dengzhou generally use raw materials transported from the other side of the sea, and now if the steel plant can be moved to South Korea, it will be much closer to the source of raw materials, so that a lot of transportation costs can be saved.
Therefore, during this period of time, the owners of the steel mills in Dengju City have gone to South Korea to conduct field investigations, and even some of them have begun to transport people and materials to build factories there. However, the fastest action is still the steel plant under the name of Qi Wangfu, the construction of Nanli Prefecture has already begun, and even coal and iron ore have been transported from Andong Prefecture to South Korea, as soon as the factory is completed, it will be able to start making steel immediately.
After all, steel is not the main industry of Dengju, so the storm is not too big, and although South Korea is completely open, the local people are all gone, so if you want to build a factory there, you have to relocate some workers, which is naturally nothing for steel mills close to the raw material production area, but for other industries, it is not very cost-effective.
However, the merchants in Dengzhou were destined to be happy, because they soon found that the Qi Wangfu began to purchase a large number of various materials, from grain, canned food to weapons and armor, all of which were among the purchases, which immediately caused countless merchants to go crazy, desperately urging the factories under their names to produce goods, and even wished to let the workers stay in the factories for twelve hours a day, after all, for them, time is money now.
However, some businessmen with a keen sense smelled a familiar smell, as if His Royal Highness King Qi had been buying supplies as he was doing now when he did to Silla and Baekje. And some people with good intentions found that after these materials were purchased, they would be loaded onto ships and sent to Sixian, which caused many people to speculate, is His Royal Highness King Qi going to do something again?
It was also in this busy atmosphere that Wang An returned to Dengzhou with a fleet from Si Xuan, this time he mainly came to transport a batch of weapons that had just been cast, to arm the Kunlun Nu army transported from the south, these Kunlun Nu after Zhou Long's training, although the overall combat effectiveness is not too strong, but the victory is fierce in battle, if it is placed on the battlefield, it is a batch of excellent running ashes.
After Wang An got off the ship, he took the train from the port directly into Dengzhou City, and then found Zhao Fu to hand over the paperwork, and then didn't even drink a sip of tea, and immediately went to the place where the weapon was stored to inspect it again, until he found that the weapon met the requirements, he finally put his mind at ease and ordered the people in the warehouse to take care of it, and then he returned to his home next to the Qi Wangfu.
Wang An is the prince of the Qi Palace, and he can count him as the highest grade in the entire Dengzhou except for Li Su, so Li Su built a mansion for Wang An, and the location is next to the Qi Palace. Wang An has only one wife, Cui Yu's cousin, and his son Wang Guo runs a plantation in Taiwan, and his daughter-in-law and grandson also go with him, so there are only Wang An and their old couple in the house.
However, what Wang An didn't expect was that there was already a helper waiting for him in his house, and as soon as the old man saw Wang An, he immediately knelt down and shouted: "Mr. Wang, help!" (To be continued.) )
