It is impossible to say that there is no collusion between officials and businessmen in these years, otherwise, why are the transactions of people such as Zhou Feng and Cao Da so big, they must have something to do with it.

But at this time, there are generally two kinds of collusion between officials and businessmen, one is dominated by officials, and businessmen are just their servants, commonly known as tool dealers.

There is also a kind of similar to Zhou Feng and Cao Da, who give some filial piety every year, but if something happens, they have to go up and down.

No matter what it is, there is no spirit of contract in between, and officials can do nothing after taking the money, and they can even step on your feet, just because the difference in status between the two sides is too great.

It is precisely for this reason that Zhou Feng and they are respectful of this deal, not to mention this great cause of raising horses, which is the most failed government affairs done by the Ming Dynasty, you must know that this is a product of the struggle between the DPRK and China, and their backers dare not touch it, let alone them.

But they don't really want to withdraw their shares, after all, many of them already have a relationship with the dental industry.

Therefore, they finally chose to sign a statement with Guo Dan, stating that all matters related to the contracting of horse breeding had nothing to do with the dental company and were Guo Dan's personal actions.

And Cao Da also demanded that not only should it be publicized, but also stamped with the seal of the government, after all, it is not a legal society now, and without the credentials of the government, anyone can overthrow it at that time.

Guo Dan agreed "helplessly".

This official seal is not a problem, because he wants to operate the emperor's money, so Wanli will naturally ask for exclusivity, not to mention the official seal, the emperor's seal.

After the negotiation, Zhou Feng and the others comforted Guo Dan before leaving, the passing year is not good, but the matter has come to this, don't think about it, carry it alone.

"Why is Madame looking at me like that?"

As soon as they left, Kou Zhuansha appeared beside Guo Dan and looked at him with a very strange look.

Kou Zhuansha said: "You are really panicked, but it is really powerful, if I didn't know in advance, I'm afraid I will be hidden by you." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Guo Dan hurriedly arched his hand and said: "In front of Madame, the little brother doesn't dare to be arrogant. ”

Kou Zhuansha also bowed: "I can't lie like you." ”

Guo Dan waved his hand and said: "Mrs. is modest, I think that Mrs. used a piece of paper to make her husband ugly, but now I think about it, I feel very embarrassed." ”

Kou Liansha's face suddenly flushed, but remembering that Guo was pretending to be stupid at that time, it was indeed very funny, and he pursed his lips and said, "That's why you lied to me first." ”

Guo Dan looked up and sighed: "But it's a pity that the credit is all in vain, in the end, I was still recognized by my wife, why is it so difficult to find a beautiful and capable woman!" ”

Kou Zhuansha rolled her eyes slightly, and said, "Don't think about who will raise you now, think about how to raise this horse first." But don't say I didn't warn you, this horse is not so easy to raise, and the people would rather pay taxes for the rations, and would rather be slaves and maids than raise horses. ”

Guo Dan was surprised: "It's really fake, you're too exaggerated, don't scare me." ”

Kou Zhuansha was stunned and said, "Don't you even understand?" ”

She thought that Guo Dan must have understood it clearly, and discussed it with the emperor.

Guo Dan shook his head.

Kou Zhuansha was surprised: "If you don't understand, you dare to agree, it's ......." ”

She was speechless.

Guo Dan said with a simple face: "I just didn't expect it to be so serious." ”

Kou Liansha looked at him and said, "Did you mean to scare me?" ”

"Of course not." Guo Dan said: "I really don't know, but it doesn't matter, my philosophy is that as long as you lose a piece of money there, the sweat and blood BMW can be used for barbecue and food." ”

......

The Yanagi family.

"Grandpa, it seems that Zhou Feng and they don't plan to participate."

"If it were me, I wouldn't dare to participate."

Liu Zongcheng shook his head, and said with emotion: "That's fine, if he wants to play like this, then we can save our hearts, we don't have to fight with him anymore, we can't afford to play!" ”

Liu Chengbian said: "What does grandpa mean, Guo Dan didn't accidentally unveil the list?" Is it intentional? ”

Liu Zongcheng said: "Eighty percent yes, if he was so confused, he wouldn't be able to have today, but he pretended to be confused but it was very tight, and we let him be deceived before." ”

Liu Chengbian nodded slightly, and said: "But Sun Er still can't figure out what kind of benefits are profitable here, even if you can make some money, compared to the risks, this is definitely not cost-effective." ”

Liu Zongcheng frowned and sighed: "I can't figure it out either!" ”

......

Penal Department.

"It seems that this is a long time ago between Xing Anbo and Guo Dan." Sun Rufa frowned.

"That's even better." Huang Daxiao said with a smile: "I don't believe that Guo Dan has the ability to operate those ten abandoned pastures well, as far as I know, those ten ranches were originally four large pastures, just because a lot of fertile land was occupied by others and changed to cultivated land, which was divided into ten pastures, if Guo Dan can really use those lands If he can raise a considerable number of good horses, I have nothing to say." ”

Li Zhi said: "But this son is cunning and changeable, and we have also suffered losses at his hands, so we still have to be cautious." ”

Huang Daxiao said: "Of course, but Xing Anbo has already said that everyone can supervise it, and if they want to cheat, it is impossible." ”

.....

About Guo Dan's accidental unveiling, it quickly spread, and everyone talked about it, but almost everyone's opinion is the same, Guo Dan is dying!

Many people who have a good relationship with Guo Dan can't help but sigh, a wise man must make a mistake if he thinks about it, and this loss may be fatal.

After all, Guo Dan is just a businessman, although he can be said to be a brocade guard now, but even so, he can't withstand any wind and rain.

Judging from the evolution of the horse breeding system in the Ming Dynasty, this can not be said to be a huge pit, it is simply a crater, according to the policy of the early Ming Dynasty, the people of the whole country have to raise horses, but it didn't take long for the people of the whole country to try their best to avoid the responsibility of raising horses, no one wants to raise horses, and the people and herdsmen are going to perish, which can only be raised by the state, and the country is not good at raising, in other words, private contracting is to die.

There was no way, who let Guo Dan be so careless, so on the second day, he followed Xu Mengxi to inspect the ten ranches.

The ten pastures are concentrated in Wuqing and Xianghe counties on the edge of the capital, because this is just an attempt, so they are all pastures near the capital, and this is indeed fertile water and grass, flat terrain, suitable for raising horses, the royal horse farm is on this side of Sanhe County.

When Guo Dan came to the last horse farm, he realized that this was really a crater!

"I said Xinganbo, how do I feel that I have been deceived." Guo Dan said extremely depressed.

Xu Mengxi said: "Why do you say that? ”

Guo Dan glanced at Xu Mengxi, and saw that he was still stunned, and he had the urge to beat people, and said: "Your copywriting is quite decent, use 60,000 acres of land, raise 1,000 horses, and give a subsidy of 1,000 taels every year." ”

Xu Mengxi immediately said: "But it's not bad at all, if you don't believe it, you can send someone to measure it, and the conditions I give are really the best, the annual forage tax for each horse in Taifu Temple is only one or two, I really give it all to you." ”

Guo Dan was angry and said: "I know, I know, but the problem is that you write on it is a fertile land for water and grass, but you see, the edge of each horse farm is full of high-quality fertile fields, and the grass in the middle of the horse farm is not good, and it is fragmented, this east piece, west piece, and the side is all arable land, the horse is like being in prison, and you have to come to a sudden brake when you run two steps, not to mention that the horse can't stand it, and people can't stand it!" Let's walk around this circle, and the horses we see are only two or three hundred, and none of them are first-class horses. ”

Xu Mengxi sighed: "You don't know, it turns out that these lands are horse farms, but later... Alas...., so when you let the horses go in the future, you have to be careful, don't step on those crops, the owners of the land are all relatives of the emperor. ”

"Then I'll have to hire a man from each horse to watch over it." Guo Dan smiled as he spoke: "Money is not a problem? That's really wonderful, for the price you gave, if you don't lose money, I'll chop off my head, double it, and see if it works. ”

Xu Mengxi sighed: "Actually, I am willing to double it for you, and the Taifu Temple can also take the money, but the problem is that others will not agree!" ”

"If you don't say yes, forget it." Guo Dan waved his hand and said: "You should ask another smart person for this deal, I can't do it." ”

Xu Mengxi hurriedly said: "You have already unveiled the list, how can you regret it, this is not good." ”

Guo smiled and said: "I didn't sign a contract with you, I'll go and tell Your Majesty, I just accidentally ripped it off, and I did my best, this deal is really undoable, I believe Your Majesty can understand." Uncle, having said that, you are clearly lying to me, whether you can raise it or not, I don't believe you don't know. ”

Xu Mengxi's expression was a little embarrassed, but he was more afraid, with Guo Dan's relationship with the emperor, maybe he could really get out, and those officials were also going to target him, taking 10,000 steps back and saying, even if Guo Dan couldn't get out and tied up to death, he couldn't draw it, so he could only persuade him with good words: "Of course I also know the difficulties in this, if it is easy to do, it will not become like this, so I am looking for you, you are so smart, there must be a way." ”

"Don't say that." Guo Dan said angrily: "You can't even meet the most basic conditions, how can I think of a way, you can't expect me to get into a one-inch-high hole, it's impossible." ”

Xu Mengxi was anxious and said: "Guo Dan, if you regret it, my Xu family will be finished, I did this at the beginning, but I was all counting on you, you can think of a way." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly had a feeling of being deceived, because when they were talking, Guo Dan was very cheerful, and he said that the rotten and bloated operating mechanism of the imperial court, if it was changed to a private person, he would not lose anything, which made Xu Mengxi full of confidence, and the price he gave now was really without a little water, he never thought that Guo Dan would regret it, this is really a cheat.

Guo Dan said impatiently: "Let's go, let's go." ”

"You can't go!"

Xu Mengxi grabbed Guo Dan.

Guo Dan wanted to cry without tears and said: "I need time to find a way, but don't think about it here, I panic when I stand here." Alas... What a sin this horse farm! ”

"Figured out? That's okay, that's okay, let's go. ”

Xu Mengxi hurriedly pulled Guo Dan out of here.

Guo Dan looked at the anxious appearance of the old fox, and the evil breath in his heart finally came out, how could he be comfortable, and said in his heart, but don't blame me for being ruthless, if I didn't push you into a desperate situation, how would you be willing to carry this pot for me and Your Majesty, and if you are in a hurry, you will be avenged, hehe......
