Chapter 108: Fujian's Harvest
Listening to Yang Chendong's idea, Wang Zhen also felt his eyes light up, "Yes, this is a good way, but he will come back eventually." Thinking that this was not a one-time solution to the matter, Wang Zhen shook his head lightly.
"It doesn't matter, every day he leaves counts as a day, and when he returns, who knows what the situation will be? If you really think of other ways at that time, you just have to think of other ways. After all, if you move him now, there are too many implications and too many troubles. Yang Chendong said with a very jealous look.
These words hit Wang Zhen's psychology, and he was also afraid of Yu Qian, otherwise with his means and power, he would have attacked this person a long time ago.
Thinking that there is indeed no better way at present, and it can be regarded as a way to alleviate the cost of people first, Wang Zhen nodded at the moment, "Okay!" That's how it goes. ”
The atmosphere of the second formal meeting between the two sides was much better than the first.
When Wang Zhen decided to inject two million taels of silver, he completely stepped onto Yang Chendong's boat, the difference is that he is the one who is on the boat, which is equivalent to putting his life in the hands of the other party, but he doesn't realize it.
Wang Zhen finally left Yangjiazhuang satisfied, and soon after, Yu Qian and Xisheng were transferred out of Beijing, and at the same time, two million taels of silver were also sent in batches to the newly opened Tianwaitian Trading Company, and there were already piles of dazzling commodities here.
There are a lot of goods in the sky, and they are still being transported from the Red Castle. However, when it was in business, it was always said to the merchants from all over the world who came to purchase that it was out of stock, so that it gave people the feeling that they had to adopt a limited sales method.
The original intention of the so-called limited sales is to fool consumers who are ready to start quickly, otherwise there will be no more; It means that the supply is not enough... the meaning of being robbed madly; It is also limited to how much can only be sold per day.
For example, glass is sold for only 1,000 pieces a day with a 6 by 6 area. The price is based on the highest bidder, whoever gives the highest price will sell these things to whom, as for the others, wait for tomorrow please be early.
There are also glasses, perfumes, toilet paper and other items, which are limited every day, so that the demand is always the majority, and the goods are indeed very few, which has caused everything to become a sought-after goods. And all this follows the principle of bidding, the highest price wins.
It's more like a mirror of gods, it's not just a limited edition, but a piece that will only appear in three days, for this reason, I don't know how many businessmen have broken their heads, and there are also many people who have a relationship with the Yang family, and things that go through the back door happen from time to time.
Since ancient times, those who sell goods have been based on the ability to sell, and even the more they sell, the better, but those who come to get the goods have always taken more and the lower the price. But when it came to the outside world, it was indeed the opposite.
Do you want goods? Then pay a high price.
Do you want more? Not only is there no slight discount on the price, on the contrary, your price may be more, and it is not impossible to monopolize it, then you need sufficient funds to do it.
To say that the hand of playing outside the sky is hated by many businesses, but there is nothing to be done. Outside the sky, you will always see the figure of Dongchang and Jinyi Wei Fanzi, if someone dares to make trouble, then they will be arrested immediately, and it will not be much more than the hard-earned money, which is not to think of it.
The merchant didn't dare to make trouble, so he could only play by the rules of the outer heavens, which caused a large amount of gold and silver to flow into Yang Chendong's hands, and his funds became huge. Nowadays, when receiving goods from Tianjin Wei Port, the receiver also has to bear the errand of delivering silver. It's a real pleasure.
There are also some businessmen, they see that the sky is so profitable, so they have other thoughts, thinking that they will also get a boat to walk on the sea, although there are some risks, but once successful, bring back the goods of the foreign Yi, it will definitely make a windfall!
But how did they know that the sea area belonging to Daming had been occupied by Yang Chendong, and those merchant ships that went out to buy goods were often intercepted by the navy of Kaohsiung as soon as they went to sea, and then they were taken down with the silver, so it was really a profitable deal. This is the only one, I don't know how much Yang Chendong has earned.
In fact, the order to blockade the sea area was given by Yang Chendong, but the executor was not Kaohsiung himself. Dealing with those unarmed and powerless Ming Dynasty merchants, Kaohsiung had long lost interest and handed over these things to his deputy Yue Guang. And he and Leng Song were together, discussing the attack on Lukang.
After capturing Qishan and solving the threat in the southwest rear of Chichicheng, the new army of the Yang family successively captured Alishan and Yushan, occupying most of Taichung, and compressing the opponent's forces near Taichung, and Lukang became the first military fortress facing the front line.
Lukang Harbor. It is the largest port in the entire Xiaoliuqiu country, where the terrain is excellent, the coastline is also very gentle, and a large number of ships are properly parked. In addition, its geographical location is backed by the Xiaoliuqiu Sea, which makes it difficult for others to make a surprise attack here, and it has become a natural harbor base.
As the highest naval officer of the New Army, Kaohsiung has long coveted this place and wants to take it for himself.
If it weren't for the lack of manpower, I'm afraid I would have made up my mind a long time ago. Now that Deng Maoqi of Fujian was killed, the rebel army there was also suppressed by the Ming army, and Leng Song, who could not fish in the water, had to lead people back to the Chichi City, which also strengthened the military strength in the city.
During the trip to Fujian, Leng Song's harvest was still very large.
The 100 Leng Feng and 500 auxiliary soldiers fought successively, but in the end, no one was killed in the battle, and only seven people were injured, which was still not seriously injured.
There were no casualties in themselves, which was naturally due to the fact that the training was more hard and strict. After several months of hard work, the results are also gratifying, bringing back more than 150,000 people of the Ming Dynasty, and the gunpowder and other resources grabbed are countless.
With the addition of these Han people, the problem of the source of soldiers has been alleviated to a certain extent. After another cautious and strict assessment, among which He Yang, Song Dacheng and other instructors did not dare to have a trace of water release, every auxiliary soldier who wants to officially become a member of Leng Feng must go through both physical and cultural tests, and only if the results are good can he become a regular soldier.
It's just that there are too many people to be selected, and the large number of auxiliary soldiers has made the number of people who have passed the assessment this time more than the sum of the previous times, and more than 600 people have passed the final test.
After some discussion with Leng Song, Kaohsiung expanded the army, forming a total of twelve companies, each with a strength of 100 people. The men were divided into four battalions, two each for the Navy and six for the Army.
Leng Feng has been expanded, Kaohsiung and Leng Song's vision and heart have also been relaxed, and they have targeted Lugang, they want to solve the problem in Taichung at one time and hit the first Shang dynasty hard.
Once you have the goal, the next step is all kinds of investigations, all kinds of infiltration. According to what the Sixth Young Master taught, before every battle, the mature performance is to understand everything about the enemy clearly, if there is enough time, it is best to tell who the commander of the other party is? It is necessary to understand what kind of character it is and what kind of fighting style it may adopt, and only in this way can you achieve the greatest victory at the minimum cost.
Yang Chendong's words have always been regarded as a truth-like existence in the new army. Investigation began immediately, and plans for the attack on Lukang began to be further contemplated.
......
Xisheng is gone, and Yu Qian is also gone.
Among the Jingshi, Yang Chendong seemed to have settled down a lot because of the departure of the two, and all he saw was the guests and visitors of the Immortal Residence and the merchants of the outer heavens.
For these things that have been prepared for a long time, Yang Chendong does not pay much attention for the time being, he knows that as long as everything goes according to plan, it is certain to make money, and it is also certain to have enough popularity. Even if you don't have to think about it, then the next thing is to solve the people who have troubled him.
In the study of the sixth young master of Yangjiazhuang, there are three pieces of paper, which are three documents sent by the Security Bureau. They are the relevant news of Yu Qian, the left attendant of the Ministry of War, Jinyi Wei Qianhu Xisheng, and Sichuan Daoyu Shi Shenyou.
What Yang Chendong didn't expect was that Wang Zhen not only got Yu Qian and Xisheng who had promised him out of Beijing, but also Sichuan Dao Shenyou, who returned to Beijing to report on his work, also blasted out of Beijing.
"These two are talents, they should be kept and sent to Chichicheng City. Tell Kaohsiung and Leng Song, arrange for people to keep an eye on them for twelve hours, they can go to see everything, but they just can't leave, and they can't do anything. After handing over the information of Yu Qian and Shen You to Hu Mang, who was standing in front of the desk, Yang Chendong's face became fierce, and he looked at the information recorded on the last piece of paper and said: "As for this person, it was solved on the spot, but it must be clean and neat, and no one should be allowed to see the slightest problem, can it be done?" ”
"Yes." Hu Mang replied excitedly, then leaned forward and asked tentatively, "Young Master, can I personally take action in this matter?" ”
"Nope." Yang Chendong shook his head categorically, "You are the person next to Young Master Ben, everyone knows that if you disappear at this time, it is inevitable that some people will be suspicious." In this way, the matter is left to the group of Dao Xiao to do, don't they shout every day that there is nothing to do? If things go wrong this time, then go back to Chiji City to be an auxiliary, and if you want to enter the cold front, you need to face a more difficult and strict assessment. ”
Seeing that Yang Chendong said it so simply, Hu Mang knew that the opportunity to get over it didn't exist, so he immediately replied uprightly, "Please rest assured, young master, things will be done beautifully." ”
