648 Be on guard
Yuejing, LΓΌ Fu.
"Feng Quan, Chen is rich, this task will be handed over to you, if you do a good job, your country will be rewarded."
"Yes, we will do our best to live up to the grace of the country." Feng Quan and Chen Youqian bowed down and retreated.
Lu Zhi was holding a cup of stomach nourishing Coke, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he watched the fat and thin head leave, what he said about the heavy rewards was not a lie, but he had already considered it in his heart.
The treasury is developing very well, and the treasury is becoming more and more abundant, and if nothing else, the imperial court will accumulate huge wealth in the next few years.
This wealth is mainly reflected in two aspects: money and grain, not to mention food for the time being, let's talk about the accumulated silver.
This silver will not give birth to small silver when it is placed in the warehouse, so Lu Zhi is ready to open a bank with a national brand when the time is ripe.
Well, the bank may not be very good, too modern, then the bank, the kind of money that can be able to connect the world.
When the time comes, let Feng Quan and Chen Youqian become shopkeepers, similar to bank presidents and the like, the identities and abilities of the two businessmen are quite suitable, and their status will not be low, and they are finally worthy of their friendship with them for many years.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Bidding farewell to Lu Zhi, the fat and thin head Tuo found a hidden place and began to talk secretly to discuss a specific plan of action.
It is not difficult to sell low-priced grain, anyone can do it, not to mention that they are still professional counterparts, but this matter is worth mentioning by Grandpa Guo himself, which means that the stakes are very high, and they should think about it more.
Hey, selling low-priced grain is a national plan, and the bigwigs in the DPRK who know about this matter are the only ones who participated in the meeting at that time, and the fat and thin head Tuo is definitely not qualified to know the details, and Lu Zhi will not elaborate.
"Hiss~~~" Feng Quan pulled his beard, hissing for a while, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Chen Youqian leaned back in a chair and stroked his belly, obviously brainstorming.
After a while, Feng Quan broke a beard, and he was excited, "Ahem, big fat face, pay attention to the word in business, and sell grain at a low price, this is obviously greasy, not very reasonable." β
"It's just unreasonable, if it's reasonable, what else do we want to do?" Chen Youqian smiled and pretended to pull his beard, "It hurts." β
"Hey, don't worry about that, let's figure out how to make things reasonable."
Chen Youqian touched his belly, his fingers moved smartly, and he actually played on his belly, "Grandpa Fang Caiguo didn't explain it thoroughly, our main task is not to do grain trading, but to explore and hunt for treasures." β
As one of the first people to follow Lu Zhi, Chen Youqian was particularly concerned about this matter and never forgot it for a moment.
"Hehe, okay, as soon as you say that, it makes sense." Feng Quan quickly pulled his beard and pondered it in his heart.
At present, most of the Wu State has been divided between Dayue and Qi State, and it is not difficult to find heavenly treasures in the occupied area of Dayue, in fact, there is no need for Lu Zhi to speak, and the people below have already begun to do it.
But if you want to extend your tentacles further into the Qi occupation area, it will be difficult to achieve, but now that there is a plan to dump low-priced grain, it is much easier.
Feng Quan pulled off another beard, and muttered quickly, "I have been in charge of army logistics all these years, and now I am holding the position of a baggage officer in Golden Scale City, and the flow of food from my hands will not cause too much suspicion." β
Chen Youqian also smiled, "In order to please Grandpa Guo, it seems that there is nothing wrong with us doing something to betray the interests of the imperial court." β
"It's the pole, it's the pole." Feng Quan smiled on his face, "In this way, things will be reasonable, and it will not affect the reputation of Grandpa Guo." β
"That's right." The two glanced at each other, and a thought flashed in their hearts, Grandpa Guo was probably thinking about it too, so he asked them to deal with this matter?
"Grandpa Guo is wise!" Both gave a thumbs up at the same time and shouted praise.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
At the same time, the army of Qi has reached the capital of Wu, and the morale of the whole army is high, and they want to take this city in one fell swoop as a congratulatory gift for the king of Qi to be proclaimed emperor.
It's just that this big city is unusually strong and well-guarded, and the garrison army is the elite of the elite, and it is not afraid of death, so this battle is bound to be protracted.
In fact, after besieging for half a month, the army of Qi not only failed to break through the city and seek benefits, but suffered heavy losses and countless casualties.
On this day, the commander of the Qi army saw that the siege was unfavorable, so he turned to the method of siege and sent envoys into the city to persuade him to surrender.
Hey, this is exactly what is hard and not soft, trying to break the last resistance of the Wu people from the inside, so it is half a month, and there is little success.
It was just that there were no results on the front line, and the rear was also frequent, which forced the Qi army to temporarily put aside the siege and deal with the chaos in the rear.
It is not difficult to understand that the people of Wu who were occupied by the Qi State were unwilling to surrender, and the trouble was full of wolf smoke, and the Qi army could only suppress it everywhere, and there was no time to take care of anything else.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the capital of Wu State, in the north, fifty miles away, in the camp of the Qi army, several generals were eating, drinking, and chatting.
A general held a leg of mutton and nibbled a few bites, and slammed the leg of mutton on the table, "Hey, you said that the banner of our army has been planted in this city, how can these Wu people not be honest." β
The general sitting on the main seat cut off a piece of mutton with a knife, stuffed it into his mouth slowly, and said while chewing, "You said that they are Wu people, since they are Wu people, how can they obey my Daqi's discipline?" β
"The general is reasonable, and I am complaining."
The instability of the rear caused the army to concentrate on the siege, which made the generals extremely irritable, and occasionally someone had to complain.
"It's okay to complain, but you can't be in a mess." The general cut off another piece of meat, "This matter can only be done slowly, take your time." β
Alas~~~ The first few generals sighed almost at the same time, and it can only be like this for now.
"By the way, is there any news from the Yue country?"
As a general, you have to consider the problem holistically, except for the Wu State that is about to be destroyed, the most worthy of beware is Da Yue, which is likely to be the next enemy of Daqi.
One general replied, "There is no news, the army of the Yue Kingdom exercises and patrols every day, and it seems that it does not mean to continue to conquer the city." β
The general bowed slightly, "What about the Yue Imperial Court?" β
"Back to the general's words, it is very calm, nothing abnormal."
"There's nothing out of the ordinary?" The general frowned slightly, and instructed the Wu people to stage a Hongmen banquet, killing the general of the wind was just by the way, and the main purpose was to intensify the contradiction between the Dayue lord and faction and the main battle faction.
Supposedly, this strategy must be useful, but how can there be no anomalies now?
"If you look again, you must listen to more news."
"Yes."
"Come on, pen and ink are waiting, and the general wants to write a letter." No abnormality is the biggest abnormality, the general is extra vigilant, immediately put a book into the book, beware of the top, not to be ignored.
