~~~~~~

As soon as Liu Ruyi's words came out, everyone couldn't help but whisper again.

Business opportunities?

What is a business opportunity?

If you can buy and sell money, that's a business opportunity!

And these words came out of the mouth of Qi Guogong and his old man, so can this matter still be run away?

Liu Ruyi was not in a hurry, but was patient, and looked at the reactions of all the wealthy businessmen in the venue with a smile.

There is a saying in later generations, 'Opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared!' ’

At present, Liu Ruyi has put the opportunity in front of these wealthy businessmen, whether they can grasp it depends on their courage and courage!

Henan is the heart of the Central Plains, although over the years, natural disasters and man-made disasters, people have been displaced, and wounds on all sides, but the land of the Central Plains is a treasure given to China by God!

Since ancient times, the Central Plains has been in turmoil, and the world will be in chaos!

The Central Plains is prosperous, and the world will be prosperous!

It is no wonder that the ancients said 'chase the Central Plains', 'win the Central Plains', and 'those who win the Central Plains win the world!' ’

At this time, although the Central Plains has been devastated, after all, the land is still there, although the population is withered and the displaced people are everywhere, but after all, the roots are still there!

The main reason for the formation of the chaos at the end of the Ming Dynasty was that natural disasters and corrupt officials destroyed the granaries of the Central Plains, so that the people had no food, no drink, and could not live, so they naturally rebelled!

Otherwise, if the Central Plains is stable and connects Huguang and Jiangnan, the imperial court will have enough financial resources and manpower to resolve the chaos in eastern and northwest Liaodong, and even if it is not good, it can also drag the current situation and maintain stability!

The so-called 'after the great chaos, there will be great governance'!

With the turbulent waves set off by Li Zicheng in the Central Plains, a new round of political reshuffle is about to begin, but Liu Ruyi has enough strength and confidence to laugh the most in this entanglement of interests!

"Qi Guogong, we are willing to follow Qi Guogong to the death! It's just that we are stupid, and we don't know the general strategy of Qi Guogong for a while, and I ask Qi Guogong to solve our doubts! ”

"I implore the Duke of Qi to solve our doubts!"

Everyone couldn't help but get up one after another and bowed their heads at Liu Ruyi!

Liu Ruyi smiled slightly, "It's very simple!" Only four words! That's the land, the food! ”

After a pause, Liu Ruyi's eyes swept over everyone with a smile, and explained: "In the past few years, although the Central Plains has been affected by drought and thieves, the land is full of devastation! But the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse! The Central Plains region, full of plains, fertile land, since ancient times, is the first granary of my China! Moreover, the Central Plains region, backed by the Yellow River, has an abundant water system! The drought may continue, but with the effort, these are not a problem! ”

Seeing that everyone had already reacted a little, Liu Ruyi continued to explain: "The so-called people take food as the sky! Food is the root of all problems! Only by solving the most fundamental problems can we have the mind and ability to solve the following problems! I know that you will definitely say, Grandpa Guo, food has been sluggish in the past few years, and it is not profitable to do this! Hehe! Otherwise, I don't want to explain anything, now, I only have one sentence, those who can do their best to make this happen will definitely receive the most favored treatment from my Colored Stone Army! ”

Hearing Liu Ruyi's words, everyone whispered again, and even Xiao Mowen frowned tightly.

Although Liu Ruyi said it easily, who of these wealthy businessmen and tycoons present did not understand the situation of the Central Plains at this time?

Luoyang, Kaifeng, near these big cities, as well as the eastern Henan region, are slightly better, but the western Henan and southern Henan regions can be described as thousands of miles of red land, and there are no people for hundreds of miles!

As a result, most of the businesses of these wealthy businessmen turned their targets to Gyeonggi, Huguang and Jiangnan, and many people simply gave up the Central Plains!

After all, no one, you just have the best things, so no one buys them?

It's not possible, you can't count on doing business with Li Zicheng, right?

Looking at everyone's nervous appearance, Liu Ruyi smiled and beckoned to Zhang Laocai.

Zhang Laocai hurriedly walked to Liu Ruyi's side and said respectfully: "Grandpa Guo, do you have something to order?" ”

Liu Ruyi whispered a few words in Zhang Laocai's ear, then clapped his hands, signaled everyone to be quiet, and said with a smile: "Everyone is my elite talent in Shandong, presumably, the vision will not be bad!" Hehe! Ruyi is about to go on the expedition, and the military affairs are busy, so I won't accompany you here! If you have the will or the idea, you can negotiate with Lao Zhang! I will entrust him with carte blanche to handle this matter! ”

After Liu Ruyi finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass, signaled to everyone, drank it all, and then strode out of the tent in a chic manner!

Only everyone was left stunned!

Zhang Laocai's face turned blue and white for a while, but after a while, he came back to his senses, understood Liu Ruyi's intentions, and instantly radiated, "Everyone, everyone, Grandpa Guo has already said clearly, let's guys, if there is anything, you can sit down and discuss!" However, Grandpa Guo also said that time is pressing, only tonight! If you are still hesitating, after tonight, Grandpa Naguo and I, Lao Zhang, will not wait......"

**************************************************************

Finely broken snowflakes fluttered from the sky and fell on the face, a burst of coolness!

The night was already dark, and the entire camp was covered with a layer of snow white, but the cold wind that had been continuing had stopped, and the chill had stopped for a while!

Liu Ruyi strolled quietly in the light snow, with a big hand, casually playing with the falling snowflakes, but there was a light smile on the corner of his mouth.

No matter what era it is, there are always very few people who can break through the limitations of the era itself!

But for the sake of the long-term, for the future, for the sake of continuity, and for the sake of stability, Liu Ruyi had to be patient, like a small horse-drawn carriage, dragging these people hard and trying his best to move forward!

Although this will consume a lot of Liu Ruyi's strength, in the long run, such benefits are also obvious!

For Liu Ruyi, the Central Plains battle, against Li Zicheng, Liu Ruyi really doesn't have much pressure!

Compared with the Huang Taiji and Dolgon brothers of the Emperor of the Emperor of the First Emperor, Li Zicheng is a rogue after all, although he is also a dragon and phoenix among people, but at the root, he has fallen to the inferior!

It's actually a very simple question!

It's like building a building, if the foundation is not firm, even if your building is high and fast, as long as there is a gust of wind, the storage will even bring up the roots!

War, in the final analysis, is fighting for the population, weapons, and financial resources!

Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if Liu Ruyi has not yet gone to Luoyang, Luoyang City has been lost, then Liu Ruyi can still defend Kaifeng and compete with Li Zicheng again!

Because, Liu Ruyi can afford to lose, Caishi Army can afford to lose, and Shandong can afford to lose!

Liu Ruyi's careful planning in Shandong over the years is not just talking!

But on the other hand, Li Zicheng, can he afford to lose?

In the end, Li Zicheng seized the opportunity to grow to the current scale in one fell swoop, and coerced nearly 500,000 exile troops to besiege Luoyang!

But when Li Zicheng captured the capital division and fought a decisive battle with Wu Sangui at Shanhaiguan, he was defeated by the Manchu Qing Dynasty in a battle, and he had no strength to resist and fight back!

Why is that?

In the past, the Wandering People's Army fought against the Imperial Court, due to various historical reasons, factional battles, and the various armies of the Imperial Court wanted to exchange the merits of the Wandering People's Army for personal interests, just like a few people, working together to tease a wolf cub to find fun!

But when the wolf cub suddenly grew up, fierce and mighty, these people suddenly found that they couldn't beat the wolf cub, and they had to flee for mercy!

But a wolf is a wolf after all, and suddenly encountered a tiger in Liaodong, relying on his momentum, fighting a battle, suffering a loss, and having a long memory, he no longer dared to provoke this tiger!

This is raising tigers for trouble, reaping the consequences!

Taizu said, 'It is advisable to chase after the poor with the remaining bravery, and not to sell the name of the overlord!' ’

A lesson for the predecessors, a teacher for the future!

Liu Ruyi came from this bloody storm, and he deeply understood that the kindness to the enemy is the cruelty to himself!

Enemies, irreconcilable contradictions, then completely destroyed from the flesh!

And this time, the main reason why Liu Ruyi took such a painstaking effort and spent so much effort to plan the Central Plains battle situation was to make himself stand more stable!

After all, a military victory can only maintain temporary stability, but the victory of economy, commerce, agriculture, population, and culture can ensure that Liu Ruyi will firmly control every piece of land he occupies!

However, for these things, Liu Ruyi doesn't have so much energy, and he does it himself!

The war is imminent, Liu Ruyi needs to do a good job, that is, to lead the Caishi Army, achieve a victory, and firmly hold the overall situation in his own hands!

As for these trivial things, Liu Ruyi simply let go and let those who have the ability to do it, and make the best use of their talents!

After all, with the butcher's knife in hand, Liu Ruyi is not afraid, someone dares to make a moth under his nose!

****************************************************************

At this time, the controversy in the big tent has also entered a high ~ tide!

Although Liu Ruyi has already expressed his attitude, the chaos and complexity of the Central Plains still make these shrewd wealthy businessmen and tycoons argue endlessly, and it is difficult to make a decision for a while!

For them, they are more willing to invest their silver in Shandong, Jiangnan, Huguang, ocean-going trading fleets, and those bright and higher return industries!

If it was the battle of the Central Plains, Liu Ruyi asked them to help the army with money, they would definitely not hesitate, but if the industry was also with the army, this would ......

In this world, after all, not everyone has the vision and courage of Lu Buwei and Hu Xueyan!

Even Xiao Mowen fell into deep hesitation at this time!

"Lao Zhang, you tell me the truth! What is Ruyi's intention this time? Can this trade be done? Xiao Mowen pulled Zhang Laocai to an unobtrusive corner of the big tent and asked in a low voice.

Zhang Laocai was a little speechless, but Xiao Mowen's status was too respectful, and he didn't dare not answer, and sighed: "Xiao Gong is confused!" Grandpa Guo's meaning is already so clear, then you must not hesitate! You think! Grandpa Guo has come all the way, which time, he has cheated us, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Grandpa Guo is our God of Wealth! At this time, according to your identity, you should support Grandpa Guo, so that Grandpa Guo's plan can be implemented smoothly! If you hesitate like this, it is very likely, yes, you will disappoint Grandpa Guo, let, let the eldest lady also disappoint! ”

Xiao Mowen frowned tightly, "Lao Zhang, let me think about it, let me think about it......"
