Chapter 113: Dancing Knife (May 26)
A business negotiation ended in a friendly and harmonious atmosphere.
In the end, the goods on Huaxia's side were divided equally by the Fei brothers, which could be used as payment for food, and Duanmu Ci did not ask for cash for the extra part, but submitted a bill of goods to the two, which was listed for what Huaxia could use at the moment.
For example, wine and spices.
The Fei brothers didn't mention how to prepare when they went back, and said that after the two left, standing at the gate and looking at the backs of the two waves of people leaving, Duanmu Ci suddenly said: "You say, the incident of the horse bandits last time, will it be related to this city lord?"
Yang Pingwei was stunned for a moment when he heard this, his eyes flickered a little, and then he smiled again, and said: "So what? No, so what? As long as he can bring benefits to Huaxia, then he is a close friend of my Yang someone; if he dares to hinder my Great Huaxia's footsteps, I can't say that Yang can only 'take revenge'!"
“... It doesn't matter who is behind the scenes, it can be Fat Biao, Fat Money, Bai Jia... Or someone else, we've got the final say!"
"Just see if it's good..."
"Those brothers who died in battle, they must have thought the same thing under the Nine Springs, right?"
"The lord is wise, he will not let them down!" Duanmu Ci saw that Yang Pingwei was a little unconfident in the end, and hurriedly boosted, "They will get the treatment they deserve!"
Yang Pingwei was happy at first, and then realized something, glanced at Duanmu Ci speechlessly, and said, "Why should Brother Duanmu be like this, will Pingwei be this kind of person who doesn't care about the overall situation?"
"Hehe... This time I'm a villain! I hope the main thing is not to blame!" Duanmu Ci admitted very freely, he was afraid that Yang Pingwei might guess that Fat Biao might be related to the last robbery incident, so that there would be branches, if he guessed wrong, it was okay, if it was really Fat Biao's instigation, he was really afraid that Yang Pingwei would be angry and faint, and make some unwise moves.
Now it seems that Duanmu Ci knows that he thinks too much, so he also apologizes to Yang Pingwei very happily.
"Alright, let's not talk about it... I won't go to the city to choose a location for the office, hey, I guess I'll have to grind my tongue all day today. Yang Pingwei said helplessly, and then quickly squeezed out a smile on his face, and laughed out loud: "Hahaha... It's a great honor for you to come here..."
Duanmu Ci was stunned for a moment, and then reacted instantly, is this someone coming again?!
......
Since the caravan left, the landing site in the northern part of the wilderness has not been idle, and the mixed docks that were originally improvised are no longer what they used to be, and the area alone has expanded tenfold.
In addition to the wharf, the houses and warehouses are also under construction in an orderly manner, and the preparatory goal is that the houses can supply 1,000 people to live in, and the warehouses can hold 10,000 bags of grain and all kinds of miscellaneous things.
Of course, this is only the first phase of the goal, and if there is any future development prospect here, additional investment is inevitable.
And at the landing site - because it is not under the rule of Huaxia for the time being, so Li Kang did not name this place - in the south, west, and north, Yao Fei will also build a fortress defense circle to prevent the barbarians in the north and the sinners in the east of Hedong, but due to manpower, the progress is slow.
Fortunately, there is a big river connected with Shennong Town here, and the contact is convenient, and the boat can go back and forth in 15 days, whether it is to report news, goods, or people, you can directly drive the boat down the river and go directly to the 'mainland'.
And, they've already done it.
In a large tent at the landing site, Feng Wenhan and Yao Fei sat opposite each other, and on the table between the two, an opened letter was being placed.
Yao Fei's loud voice immediately confirmed this.
"Hahaha... Lord Yang really wants to get it! This trip has gone so smoothly, according to the letter, a batch of gold and rice (100 bags of fat biao, 50 bags of fat money) will be shipped here immediately!"
"Hehe... I'm not at all surprised that they were able to exchange goods for food so quickly. Feng Wenhan smiled indifferently and said, "There are 16 large and small countries in the Hedong region alone, and it is impossible for nothing to happen without a little dirty! Think about the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Three Kingdoms Period, the Sixteen Kingdoms Period, the Northern and Southern Dynasties Period, and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms Period, and think about the chaotic history of the countries of Europa that the lord told us, all of them show that the more countries there are in the same region, the more frequent wars will be, and there will be no peace at all.
And war often means chaos, chaos breeds careerists, and it also brings a huge consumption and demand for armaments.
As for the few truckloads of ordnance they brought, no one wanted them, although war also means that there is a shortage of food, but there is always a shortage of them, isn't it?
Besides, we don't look like small merchants who only buy and sell one ticket, and they still expect a steady stream of weapons from us!
Moreover, except for ordnance, all other goods are high-quality goods, and just doing business is enough for a group of people to make a windfall. ”
Listening to Feng Wenhan's words, Yao Fei was not overjoyed, but frowned, and he said in a deep voice: "Although your words are very reasonable, I always feel that something is wrong?
"Of course it can't be that simple!" Feng Wenhan drank the wine he brought along with the letter, burped comfortably, and said, "You must know that as mentioned in the letter, there are only two families who provide food this time, and both of them are surnamed Fei. ”
"So what?" Yao Fei wondered.
"How?" Feng Wenhan sneered, "Although Fat Biao is the city lord, the Fat family is only one of the forces in the City of Atonement, and he can't even be the first in name, so others will sit and watch so happily?
As for the Bai family behind Fat Money? They are just using each other, and the benefits we give are not enough for the Bai family to stand up and support the fat money, at most it is to ensure that the fat money can eat the share that they get safely. Besides, isn't there an agent in the City of Atonement that is supported by other big families? No one likes those who break the rules!"
Although he didn't understand it very well, Yao Fei still had an unclear feeling, and when he looked at Feng Wenhan who was sitting opposite him and was chatting eloquently, he always felt more connotative and in-depth than before.
"Look, the wonderful is still to come, and I don't know how Duanmu will choose. Feng Wenhan looked outside the tent and said quietly.
"It doesn't matter how he chooses, I only know that as long as anyone dares to mess around, he will be hacked to death!"
With a "rub", Yao Fei pulled out his saber and danced straight in the tent.
It was "Storm Knife" that danced!
