Chapter 433: The Change of History

The office of the joint firm is easy to find, and everyone knows it. You don't even have to ask anyone, just walk down the main street and you can see the two-storey boxy building at a glance. When I came downstairs, I got off the horse at the door, and immediately a small guy stepped forward to greet him, which was very polite. He didn't ask who you were at all, and asked with a smile: "The guest officer is here to do business?" Or is it a search for someone? ”

The red lady took out Chen Xie's seal, handed it to the little servant and said, "This, you take it to the chief here." ”

The little girl didn't say anything, let people serve the red lady's horse, and invited her to go in and sit down to serve tea, and then go in to report. The red lady sat there, looking around, this kind of place is the first time to come, curiosity, everyone has it. After looking at it for a while, a middle-aged man hurriedly came out of it, walked up to the red lady, and said respectfully: "Qin Ke, the shopkeeper of the Kaifeng Office of the United Firm, didn't know that the master mother had arrived, and he missed the welcome, and he hoped to forgive his sins." ”

This is not to blame for the shopkeeper Qin, the seal thrown out by Chen Xie is not trivial. To put it mildly, this seal appears on the territory of every joint firm, and it is the same thing as the supreme indication. The person who can appear with a seal is not the master mother but the master mother. Even if it is the main mother, she may not be able to take out this seal. This thing, when you are lucky, the shopkeeper Qin can see it once or twice a year. That's still Chen Xie's trouble, at the end of the year, he directly threw a seal to Liu Qing, and asked him to go to seal it when the shopkeeper Qin saw it once or twice.

The red lady is stupid, and her heart says how can she become a housewife? But she didn't know how to explain it, so she could only continue to say, "I need some carts and horses and food." Can you do it? ”

Shopkeeper Qin smiled slightly and said: "In Kaifeng, the master mother opened her mouth, except for the palace and the official office, other subordinates can get it for you." ”

The red lady was secretly surprised when she heard this, and secretly said that this bastard's subordinates really dare to say it. Immediately sneered: "I want 20,000 catties of fried noodles, a bag for every ten catties, and another 200 carts, and the corresponding livestock are ready, when can I get it?" ”

Shopkeeper Qin listened to it and groaned slightly, then said, "Mastermother." The subordinate asked. Where are things delivered? Do you need a human escort? ”

The red lady was really speechless when she heard this, and thought about it: "You have prepared the things and manpower, and I will lead the way back." ”

The shopkeeper Qin said: "In this way, it will only take three days." The master mother and stay first. The subordinates will handle it. ”

Chen Xie didn't know. He has completely changed the trajectory of the red lady's life. This will make him in Shenyang City, and there are a lot of things to do. The wind and snow stopped, but the temperature unexpectedly warmed up quickly. It's already the beginning of February. This kind of thing is not surprising. The warmer temperature brought a lot of trouble, and the road after the snow was muddy, which caused a lot of difficulties for the movement of the army. In particular, logistical pressures have increased dramatically.

There is also a problem, which is the scattered Manchurians. If these people want to survive, their homes will be occupied, and they can only rob what they have not eaten. If one or two people go to rob it, they will be sent to death. Therefore, gangs of robbers, large and small, have appeared, frequently attacking transport convoys.

These teams of robbers who aim to survive use guerrilla tactics are really annoying. Over the course of three days, they attacked the convoy more than 30 times, an average of more than 10 times a day. Although there have been no cases of convoys being hijacked, this kind of thing is still annoying.

If the rear is not quiet, it will be difficult for the front to continue the offensive. Chen Xie ordered He Xian's cavalry to immediately go out and sweep the transportation routes. At the same time, it is required to speed up the laying of tracks and increase the number of cantonment points along the roads. These things have not yet come to a conclusion, and Chen Xie has to see Zu Dashou again. This guy has never had an accurate score in his heart, and hopes to reach a verbal agreement with Chen Xie. Delineate a sphere of influence for future survival.

Zu Dashou set out from Guangning, crossed a section of grassland, and came to Shenyang, this way was very easy, and the Mongolians on the grassland were not as arrogant as before, and they all hid far away.

Seeing Chen Xie, Zu Dashou spoke very directly: "Sihua, the overall situation in Liaodong has been decided, and it will be calm in three or five years at most, what should I do in the future?" Please also teach me. This is very polite, in fact, Zu Dashou at this time was very anxious, he had resisted many times and did not go to Beijing. In the second year, he ran away with Guan Ningjun, and these old accounts have not been settled. Settle accounts after the autumn, and everyone will be worried.

Chen Xie had already had a case, and when he saw him directly, he said very simply: "I plan to play His Majesty, the Mongolian tribes have always been difficult to train, and if you want to completely solve this problem, you have to build a city and garrison on the grassland, open border trade, and use interests as bait, and you can assimilate in less than fifty years." Saying that, Chen Xie took out a map, pointed to a location on it, and said: "Tongliao, the geographical location is extremely important, and when our army marches north, your department can take this as the foundation." ”

Zu Dashou's face became very ugly, this place looked too biased, and it was really not a good place to stay. Chen Xie knew what he was thinking, so he asked Wuyunna to bring a coat, put it on the table and said, "Look at this." ”

Zu Dashou didn't know why, so he reached out and wiped it, it was made of wool, and the unexpected thing was that the wool didn't pierce his hands. Wool is a thing that is definitely not good for weaving cloth directly, and your skin that can be pierced by wearing it is full of red dots. Chen Xie smiled: "Put it on and take a look." ”

After Zu Dashou put it on, he was indeed very comfortable, but it looked a little weird, and it belonged to the characteristics of Dengzhou Camp. The dress is very warm, and it is not so bloated compared to the cotton coat of the Dengzhou camp.

Chen Xie said again: "In the future, when doing business with the Mongols, you have to look at this thing." This is made of wool, and the sheep raised by the Mongols are sheared and sold to you in exchange for the necessities they need. Do you think that with such a thing in storage, the Mongols can get the living materials they want by shearing sheep, and if they can't fight a war, will they still come to rob it? ”

Zu Dashou subconsciously shook his head, he didn't know what "sheep eat people" was. I never thought about how vicious Chen Xie's trick was. Chen Xie continued: "I plan to open a woolen mill in Shenyang, and the woolen products that are compiled will be sold to the people of Taixi, which can be exchanged for a large amount of silver taels. The cost of transportation, if you take the sea route, is almost negligible. A boatload of woolen textiles can be exchanged for about half the weight of silver. Do you think this trade can be done? ”

Zu Dashou's breathing became rapid in an instant, and his mind exploded. This wool is simply a waste of waste in the Mongols. Now that waste can be exchanged for tea, salt, ironware, and grain, the Mongols must not go crazy? What kind of war are you fighting, with this thing you can make the Mongols obediently herd sheep.

Zu Dashou didn't think so deeply, Chen Xie wouldn't tell him, in the future, the Mongolians will raise sheep, and one day Chen Xie will be unhappy and stop collecting wool. The consequences? This is called the economic lifeline, and the Mongols will have to be obedient when the time comes. Ten or twenty years from now, this generation of robbers is dead and old, can the next generation still expect them to rob with knives?

"I Daqing" made a lama and a maasant, and it was abolished for the Mongols, and that thing can't be eaten, how can it be as realistic as wool? Lama and Ma's teaching this thing, Chen Xie is also ready to play, this is called a two-pronged approach. But not now, not yet.

"Sihua, what do you mean, will we cooperate in this business in the future?" Zu Dashou didn't think that his family would eat alone, and he didn't have that thought. Chen Xie gave him a sip of soup to drink, and he was very satisfied. There are so many people and so many sheep on the grassland, sharing their own interests, and having a place to settle down.

"After entering Tongliao, first build roads, build cities, buy and sell things, and set up a joint-stock company, Guanning Army accounts for 30% of the shares, Dengzhou Battalion accounts for 30%, and the remaining 40% is of other use. The responsibility of the Guan Ningjun is to defend this place and protect the safety of the entire line of communication. When it comes to buying and selling, there are some people on both sides, so it's okay, right? ”

Chen Xie actually doesn't need to be so polite, there are many ways to kill Guan Ningjun. The problem is dealing with this kind of thing, which is always a very troublesome thing. It will be difficult for Guan Ningjun to pose a threat to Chen Xie in the future, so why not use them to do things? It's better than bothering to find someone else to make it ready-made, right? Zu Dashou is a warlord, not those civilian officials, and the way to deal with him is simpler. As long as you cooperate with each other, you will be able to gain a foothold as quickly as possible outside the gates. Besides, in this day and age, the north has never been the focus of Chen Xie, and the south is where Chen Xie wants to rob. The sea is the future!

Just give some benefits to Zu Dashou, you can make people feel at ease and work hard, what's wrong?

Zu Dashou said in a low voice: "Sihua, can you tell me, who will the remaining forty percent give?" Chen Xie smiled: "What can't be said about this?" Twenty percent is used to attract investment, and two percent are reserved for His Majesty. With these two percent, it is hundreds of thousands of benefits every year, and His Majesty will not embarrass you and me. ”

Zu Dashou's bones are relaxed, and his feelings are to pull the emperor into the water? He didn't know that it was not the first time that Chen Xie had played this trick, in the years, wearing a royal hat in everything would make it a lot less troublesome.

After sending off Zu Dashou, who returned satisfied, Chen Xie fell into new confusion. History has changed beyond recognition at this time period. "I Daqing" is a grasshopper after autumn, and it has been jumping for a few days. The chaos in the Central Plains, there is no containment outside the border, Hong Chengchou and Sun Chuanting join forces to destroy them sooner or later. The Songjin War in history cut off the last bit of field strength of the Ming army, which led the thieves to become bigger. Otherwise, there is really nothing to do with Li Zicheng.

History has changed, how to change in the future, Chen Xie unexpectedly didn't think about it. There is only one general direction, and one step at a time counts as one step. In fact, aren't all those great men in history advancing in exploration? Chen Xie finally opened the plug-in, so he was naturally more confident and could guide Daming to a completely different path.
