Chapter 251 Routine(1/2)
"If the price is right, our border troops will naturally need it."
Qian Shuisheng agreed directly without thinking, and asked with a smile: "I just don't know how you are going to sell it, Mr. Zhou?"
Zhou Chen licked his lips after hearing this:
"Haha. My adults want this number."
Said,
He slowly stretched out a palm and spread out three fingers among the dozen generals in the camp.
Looking at this gesture, Qian Shuisheng looked as usual:
"Three million taels is not bad"
"Thirty million."
"."Qianshuisheng.
Zhou Chen broke the silence with a dry laugh, with a smile in his eyes:
"Elder Qian, the Yunqi bomb is very expensive to make. Even the cost of three million taels cannot be recovered."
The camp fell into silence. Qian Shuisheng stopped talking, but his eyes calmly swept across the rest of the people.
"Alas"
A brief silence was followed by a sigh. A middle-aged woman wearing armor sighed with a hint of teasing in her tone:
"Mr. Zhou, we and the 300,000 border troops are fighting a bloody battle here in order to regain Beifeng. The imperial court will not arrange reinforcements. Now even the ordnance has to be purchased privately by us. Aren't we afraid that the soldiers will feel cold?"<
/p>
Zhou Chen glanced back at the woman.
He, Zhou, thought he was already very thick-skinned, but this woman simply lost it.
After a moment of pause, Zhou Chen's mind was racing with thoughts, and he was smiling but not smiling:
"Well, elder sister, what you said is a bit too much. My lord does not serve in the imperial court. The Yunqi bombs for this trip came from his private inventory. How can it chill the soldiers on the border?"
Speaking of which,
Zhou Chen stood up straight, cupped his hands and cupped his hands towards the sky, and said loudly: "On the contrary, it is precisely because I am worried about the country and the people, and worried about the lives of the 300,000 soldiers under Beifeng City, that I let Zhou
I came here to ask you, I hope you can understand my thoughts."
The middle-aged woman snorted coldly.
And at this time,
General Hou, who had a scar on his face, suddenly chuckled sadly:
"So, Mr. Zhou is not an envoy of the imperial court?"
If you are not an envoy of the imperial court, you will not have that layer of skin as a talisman. If I kill you and settle the score in the future, it will be a personal conflict at most, not a righteous dispute.
Zhou Chen cursed secretly in his heart when he heard this, stared at the person who made the noise, and said word by word:
"This old man, Zhou, is just a mouthpiece for my family. His life is cheap. It should not be compared to the lives of all the famous families, let alone these 300,000 soldiers."
Don't do this to me. It doesn't matter if you kill me, but without the Yunqi bombs, can you defeat the hundreds of thousands of troops from the barbarians who occupy an absolute position?
General Hou narrowed his eyes, revealing a hint of murderous intent:
"Mr. Zhou, it's true that you will die for justice."
"Okay."
At this moment, Qian Shuisheng interrupted General Hou's words again, and turned to Zhou Chen with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, if we agree to the conditions of Mr. Qian, how will Yun Qitan be handed over? And in what way?"
Pay the price?"
"Elder Qian, just do it."
Zhou Chen felt slightly relieved when he heard this, cupped his hands, and said with a smile:
"For the delivery of Yunqi bombs, you can set a time, and then my master will arrange manpower to deliver them on time."
"Chi"
With a low laugh, the young female general Liu Mei said with a bit of sarcasm: "Mr. Zhou, even a white wolf with empty gloves needs to have a limit. How can we trust you credulously? If the Yunqi bomb is fictitious, the property of our frontier army will not be
Did you trick me away in vain?"
Zhou Chen had already thought about this and said without hesitation:
"The Yunqi bomb has been supplied to your army two times before. Those of you who have seen the real thing must also know that the structure of the Yunqi bomb is not stable and cannot be stored in Xumijie. If your army is willing to send elites
Go and get it, my lord can provide your army with a hiding place for Yunqi bombs."
"."
The young female general sneered: "It's so snowy outside, why send an army to escort? Do you think the barbarian wolf cavalry wandering outside is blind?"
Zhou Chen spreads his hands like a bachelor:
"Since your army is unwilling, then arrange for a high-level cultivator to go with Zhou to pick it up. This way, the possibility of exposure will be smaller. There are three delivery methods to choose from for your army."
"This is not expressed in advance."
Qian Shuisheng's eyes were full of thought, and he asked calmly: "So Mr. Zhou, how are you going to take over the payment for the goods I'm waiting for?"
Zhou Chen grinned and raised his hands upward again:
"My lord has said that he does not want land deeds, shares in the Chamber of Commerce, or any deed certificates related to Northern Industries. He only accepts cash banknotes or training resources. Of course, if your army is willing to sell military equipment, my lord is willing to use
Purchase at a premium of five times the market price.
After the words fell, there was a brief silence.
The expressions on the faces of a dozen commanders with heavy troops became a little strange.
The amount of information in this statement is quite large.
No real industry
The Tian'an Chamber of Commerce in the Prime Minister's Office and the Royal Chamber of Commerce in the imperial court have been yearning for their northern border in recent years. Now that there is such an opportunity to intervene in the northern border market openly, it is impossible for the people behind Mr. Zhou not to seize it.
It’s not that I don’t want it, but the person behind Mr. Zhou can’t want it.
Even if you let your cronies put their names on things like real estate, and you don't participate in the management and only accept annual dividends, every time you deliver benefits, there is an additional possibility of exposure.
Time passes minute by minute,
Qian Shuisheng's eyes looking at Zhou Chen became half-smiling:
"Can I ask, why does your family not want real estate in the north?"
Without thinking, Zhou Chen directly followed Xu Yuan's instructions and said directly:
"My family cannot bear the responsibility for the outflow of strategic resources such as Yunqitan."
"."
The originally tense atmosphere in the camp gradually relaxed with these words, and many generals even had a faint smile on their faces.
Well, it seems that the person behind Mr. Zhou this time is a senior official of the Prime Minister’s Office who resells supplies.
If you have power in your hands, you will naturally make the best use of it. If you don’t use it, it will expire and become useless.
Empty the public house and feed the small family.
Many of the formations in Xiangguo Mansion are ahead of the entire Great Flame, just like the original Ghost Mist formation.
Although Gewuyuan was strictly guarded, it was eventually resold at a high price.
But that's not what makes them happy.
Since the person behind Mr. Zhou is reselling privately this week, it means that the other party does not dare to publicize it and can bargain on the price, and there is a lot of room for bargaining.
Qian Shuisheng's old face trembled and he smiled:
"Mr. Zhou, thirty million taels is not a small number. Could you please wait outside the account for a while? We need to discuss it."
When Zhou Chen heard this, he cupped his fists and raised his hands, and looked at Qian Shuisheng and smiled:
"In that case, I will wait for the good news outside the tent."
After saying that, Zhou Chen walked out of the camp under the attention of a roomful of strong men.
"."
When the curtain fell, the originally relaxed atmosphere in the camp suddenly became solemn, even chilling.
Qian Shuisheng, who was sitting in the main seat, narrowed his eyes and suddenly sneered:
"Who do you think is behind Mr. Zhou?"
"It shouldn't be Lou Ji and Zong Qingsheng."
The scar-faced man spoke out: "They have no children and are all loyal to Xu Yinhe. Moreover, their positions are too high and they are unlikely to betray the interests of the Prime Minister and the government."
The entire Prime Minister's Mansion belongs to them, they can just ask for whatever they want, and there is no need to use such methods to gain profits.
