Chapter 144: Talking about business
Xia Jingming came to Chen Guo for many purposes. For Bai Che, every purpose is uneasy and kind, and he needs to be cautious. For Xia Jingming, the most important purpose is to take away the border map, and the rest can be ignored.
Du Ruo looked at Bai Che: "Is this going to war?" β
What does Xia Jingming want to do with the border defense map.
For war.
Now the diagram is in hand.
Is war still far away?
Bai Che: "Hmm. β
Du Ruo: "I think war is inevitable, so I don't want to say that everything will be fine and the world will be peaceful forever." Otherwise, let's do business. β
Bai Che: "??? β
Honeysuckle: "......"
What business do you two have to talk about?
It's better to be in love.
Phew.
What are you thinking?
In an instant, Du Ruo had already thought about the matter, straightened his expression, and negotiated with Bai Che: "As soon as there is a war, the imperial court will be very short of money, and it will cost money to recruit soldiers, buy horses, weapons and equipment, grain and grass, etc. I can contribute a part of the money, on the condition that I become a salt merchant specially approved by the imperial court. β
The imperial court forbade the sale of illicit salt.
Smuggling salt is too dangerous.
Salt and profiteering.
Once you become a salt merchant licensed by the imperial court, you don't have so much trouble, and you can make money much faster.
At that time, there will be no need to worry about the officers and soldiers tracking down, hiding and hiding, and there will be no need to bribe anyone through connections.
The war between the two countries was something that Bai Che had long predicted. He has been preparing for this, calculating day and night. Therefore, as soon as the war should be spent, he would have already completed the accounting.
Him: "At least eight million taels." How much can you come out? β
Du Ruo Weiton.
Eight million taels ......
A lot more than she expected.
Her: "On the merits, I don't think this number is reasonable. β
If you have a doubt, speak up.
She shouldn't be wronged.
Even though Bai Che is the fiancΓ© of his friend.
Even if he is famous.
Bai Che didn't hide it, and said his thoughts: "My purpose is not just to defend the land and make it difficult for Xia Jingming to advance an inch. Instead, let the Xia Kingdom no longer have the strength to start any war in my lifetime. So the wear and tear is more. β
If it is only barely held, the enemy retreats.
It will come back in the future.
Another round of disaster.
The fight is endless.
Suffering to the living.
What he wanted to win was that from now on, the enemy would not dare to gather troops and troops under the city.
Rather than simply defending every city.
Only in this way can he resign with peace of mind.
Go with honeysuckle.
With her flowers before the moon.
Two-lodging amphibious.
Du Ruo hesitated, the number was much more than she thought. If she agreed, she would really be bankrupt. Her: "I can give half of it." But I want a fifty-year concession to sell salt. β
Du Ruo added: "If I die, I have the right to transfer this right to others. β
Until the expiration of the term.
In case she dies in a few years.
You may not be able to get it back.
It's a big loss......
Allowing her to transfer power to others is a good deal.
Bai Che: "Okay. β
Deal.
Du Ruo has always been thoughtful, and he is used to thinking of danger in times of peace, even if he heard Bai Che agree, he couldn't completely put his mind at ease: "The affairs of the court are very complicated, now you talk about it, and in a few years, maybe someone else will be in charge of the government." β
Du Ruo: "Suppose you are deposed. β
Du Ruo: "How to continue to fulfill the promise." β
Bai Che: "......"
She was right.
It is impossible for him to be the one who is in charge of Chen Guo's state affairs.
It can't be him for fifty years.
Once he leaves.
The trees are scattered.
His promises could be reversed by those in power. What he said didn't work......
Bai Che: "I swear by my life. β
Du Ruo: "......"
What do I want your life for?
Can I eat and drink?
She was helpless.
Never mind.
If you really lose, it should be ...... It should be regarded as contributing to the country. Doesn't it mean that the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband?
Honeysuckle pushed Bai Che to the door and closed the door neatly: "Nerd, it's time for you to go to sleep." β
Bai Che: "......"
In the room.
Honeysuckle pulled Du Ruo to sit down, "I drove Bai Che away, you tell me quickly, what is Bai Che's plan with Chen Xianxi, causing you to be ......in danger" She understood it just now, and she didn't know what had happened.
Du Ruo said something about it.
Honeysuckle's eyes widened: "It turned out to be acting, I'll just say, why did you go with Chen Xianxi." When I first saw it on the street, my first reaction was, I was blind. I was in a trance. β
No wonder Du Ruo was obviously not moved.
But he was intimate with Chen Xianxi.
