Chapter 250: A Huge Deal
Soldiers can be trained first, but the problem of equipment must be solved as soon as possible, even if it is a black-armored Xuanqi, without corresponding equipment, the combat power will immediately drop a lot.
And now looking at the entire Liaodong, the only one who has the ability to help solve this problem is Li Cai and Li Da Shopkeeper!
After the meeting was dissolved, Shang Ji immediately summoned Li Cai, the chief treasurer of Liaodong County, the Zhen family's firm.
"Grass man Li Cai, meet the general!"
As always, Li Cai put his posture very low, and his attitude was more humble and humble, but Shang Ji did not dare to despise it at all.
The famous Zhen family did not rely on a Zhen Ji, today's little Lori, to support the field, it is not so much that Zhen Ji has made the Zhen family, but that the Zhen family has made Zhen Ji.
Zhen Mi was able to be selected by Yuan Shao, the overlord of the north at the time, as a daughter-in-law, her beauty was only an insignificant part, and the support behind the Zhen family was the most important reason, and Emperor Wei Wen Cao Pi was the same.
Although Li Cai is not the Zhen family's own family, he can be the treasurer of Liaodong County, and he must be the henchman of the Zhen family. Shang Ji, the leader of a small warlord who supports the army, is not capable of despising him, let alone asking for help today.
"Shopkeeper Li, please get up!" Shang Ji took two quick steps and personally helped him up.
"The prosperity of Xiangping City depends on the full support of Shopkeeper Li!" Helping Li Cai up, Shang Ji said with a smile.
Li Cai groveled, with a face full of flattery: "The general is mighty, he broke a million thieves in a war, he is really a genius who is not born, and the grass people should be congratulated as the general!" ”
As he spoke, he took out a few pieces of beautifully printed gold paper from his sleeve: "Just a small gift, a little bit of the heart of the contemptuous business, please accept it with a smile!" ”
Shang Ji took a look and found that there were two big Chinese characters written in the middle of each one, "Ten Thousand", and there were words on both sides such as "Wuji Zhen's, redeem the ticket when you see it".
Shang Ji knew that this was a silver ticket issued by Zhen's own family, and for the time being, the reputation was still quite strong, as long as there was Zhen's firm, it could be passed.
Such a stack, Shang Ji said that there are twenty sheets, this Li Cai is really atmospheric, the meeting gift starts directly with 200,000 gold, and ordinary people must be directly stunned!
Shang Ji smiled, calmly accepted the silver ticket, and said with a fist: "Thank you for your support, and thank you for the contemptible representative of the soldiers under your command, thank you to the shopkeeper Li!" ”
Li Cai's attitude became more and more humble, and his head was about to hit the ground, and when he heard this, he immediately panicked and said: "The general tortures the grass people, and he is only polite, and the right should be a little bit of contempt for the bloody soldiers!" ”
Li Cai is not afraid of Wang Tong, for a remote county guard like Wang Tong who has nothing to do with and has no backing, the Zhen family has a hundred ways to kill him!
However, Li Cai was extremely afraid of Shangji.
In the past few days, what Shang Ji has done Li Cai is vivid, breaking Xianbei, imprisoning Wang Tong, seizing military power, one by one, all show that Shang Ji is not a person who likes to abide by the rules.
And Zhen's chaebol is most afraid of unreasonable reckless people, so Li Cai's posture in front of Shang Ji is extremely low, for fear of angering Shang Ji and killing him directly with the army.
At present, the Liaodong Zhen clan is in the situation of Xiucai encountering soldiers, and can only pray that this soldier is not an arrogant and unreasonable soldier.
Last time, Wang Tong convened all the families in the city and the Zhen firm to raise funds to expand the army, and the Zhen firm also symbolically donated 50,000 gold, and this time, it was 200,000 gold as soon as he made a move, and the specific gap can be imagined.
"Shopkeeper Li, I will summon you this time, I still have something to ask for!" Shang Ji went straight to the point.
"General, please speak, but wherever there is any grass people who can serve, the grass people will definitely die!" Li Cai's expression was firm, and his tone was sonorous and powerful, as if he was really a person who was anxious for justice and righteousness.
Shang Ji waved his hand and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Li doesn't need to be like this, speaking of which, this is also a good thing for Shopkeeper Li!" ”
Li Cai was silent, who knows what kind of good thing Shang Ji said? It's not like he's never seen a good thing to ask you to pay millions of dollars for labor and military expenses!
"Shopkeeper Li, do you know how many Xianbei we annihilated in the first battle a few days ago?"
"Haha, the general is brave, he killed the thief chieftain, and he annihilated 700,000 thief troops in one fell swoop, such a grand event is known to women and children in Liaodong, and the general's prestige has spread all over the world!" Li Cai smiled all over his face and said to Shang Ji.
"Yes, fortunately, thanks to the soldiers' lives and the brave generals, they were lucky enough to defeat the Xianbei army. Counting the loot I deposited with your account before, I now have a large number of surplus war horses in my hands! ”
Li Cai's spirit suddenly perked up when he heard this, he could be the big shopkeeper of Liaodong County, he was naturally not a stupid person, and he immediately understood what Shang Ji meant.
"General?" Li Cai asked with some hesitation, if it was really as he thought, it would be a good thing for Zhen's firm!
"Not bad! Ben Jiang really wants to sell a batch of redundant war horses now, I wonder if you are interested in taking over? ”
Talking about business, Li Cai suddenly perked up, the whole person seemed to be a different person, his momentum changed in vain, and he asked loudly: "General, I don't know how many war horses the general wants to shoot?" What are the qualities? ”
"400,000 low-grade war horses, 100,000 medium-grade war horses!"
"Shhh
Even with Li Cai's knowledge, he couldn't help but gasp, he knew that Shang Ji would definitely gain a lot of money, but he didn't expect to gain so much!
"What? Can't you eat it? Seeing this, Shang Ji immediately asked a rhetorical question.
"Eat! Absolutely worth eating! Li Cai's face turned red and shouted excitedly.
This transaction is completed, and the money that was given to Shang Ji just now can be earned back dozens of times more immediately.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Cai asked a question that should not be asked in his capacity: "General, there are so many war horses, doesn't the general leave some for his own use?" ”
Shang Ji smiled faintly when he heard this, and asked rhetorically, "How do you know that I didn't leave a spare?" ”
"Ahem, ahem!"
Li Cai suddenly choked when he heard this, his eyes almost popped out, and he looked at Shang Ji in disbelief.
Shang Ji left 40,000 lower-grade war horses, 100,000 medium-grade war horses, and 60,000 high-grade war horses, and a good horse and above were not sold.
In Shang Ji's planning, the future Xiangping City must have 200,000 regular elite cavalry and 100,000 special cavalry. It's not that Shang Ji doesn't want to build more, the key is that the cavalry costs too much, and even if Shang Ji has just reaped a huge amount of money, he can't bear this huge expense.
"Shopkeeper Li, he will be a rough man and doesn't like to beat around the bush, just say it directly, how much money can you pay to buy this batch of goods?" Shang Ji sat on the first place and asked Li Cai.
Li Cai lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "Seven and a half million!" The contemptuous firm paid 7.5 million for the acquisition! Twelve gold for each low-grade war horse, twenty gold for each medium-grade war horse, and finally make up a whole number and give the general 7.5 million gold! ”
"Good! Shopkeeper Li is really a happy person, let's do what Shopkeeper Li said! ”
Shang Ji stood up and said.
The price given by Li Cai is higher than Shang Ji expected, although it is one percent lower than the current market price, but the difference between wholesale and retail prices Shang Ji can still figure out, this price is already quite favorable!
