Chapter 0054: Eventful Spring
After solving the player's matter, Zhang Yuan directly hung a video on the forum, marking "Death to the one who provokes me!" ”。
Soon, the video screen was pushed to the homepage, and the click-through rate reached more than one million in less than a day, ranking only behind the huge battlefield video screen of the historical plot mission.
Now, the forum completely exploded, and after watching the ins and outs of the video, some scolded Zhang Yuan for being extremely cruel, leaving no room for anything, some called haode, and some played soy sauce for maintenance. Anyway, Zhang Yuan is completely famous this time, and some players who originally had the idea of playing Xihe Town, Shili, have to measure whether it is worth it.
Zhang Yuan hung up the video screen, and then ignored it, as long as he carefully hid his identity in reality, at this time, his force value has reached the strength of becoming a partial general, with the improvement of force value, the pattern is naturally higher, everything tries not to attract attention, now how much ability to protect himself and his own achievements, there is no need to keep a low profile, occasionally high-profile, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Of course, if it's too arrogant, it will still be struck by lightning.
Hanging the video screen is to discuss haode with Qian Tian and them, because this is not only a kind of propaganda for Zhang Yuan's own reputation, which can attract capable players to take refuge, but also a kind of propaganda for Xihe Town, attracting players with financial resources to invest in Xihe Town, and then add a thruster to Zhang Yuanshili.
When Zhang Yuan returned to Xihe Town, Xihe Town was busy at this time.
There is a small stone mountain area, or stone slope, in the upper reaches of the Daxi River, where the stone built by Xihe Town was taken for the expansion of Xihe Town. At this time, Qian Lao organized more than 300 young people to mine there, and rafts on the Daxi River continuously transported stones down.
Xihe Town was not expanded on the basis of the original, at that time, considering that there was not so much time for expansion, it was decided to build a new town above Xihe Town, saying that two is actually only one, they are connected by the Great West River, and the distance is less than two hundred meters away, and they can support each other at any time, and strike with bows and arrows, without threat.
The new Shangxihe Town was established very quickly, and in this half a month, Qian Tian recruited skilled aboriginal stonemasons, as well as designers in reality, and the transportation was extremely convenient, and there was no shortage of manpower.
"Huh? Guo Ya, what happened? "I just came back, and I didn't even have time to rest, so I was pulled by Guo Ya again.
Looking at Zhang Yuan's funny expression, Guo Ya pursed her lips and showed a smile: "There are a lot of things!" ”
"It's been an eventful spring, I haven't had anything to do before, and now I don't even have a chance to rest!" Zhang Yuan said speechlessly.
"Boss, you are already very relaxed, in the past half a month, the most tired is us, recruiting people, as well as recruiting aboriginal life professionals, organizing handicraft factories for preliminary processing of furs, establishing equipment manufacturing factories, and conducting scientific breeding training for herdsmen, etc.!" Guo Ya spread out her palms and counted them one by one.
There are really a lot of things in the past half a month, and every day the opportunity is busy with their feet on the ground, although there are more and more employees, but the career is also bigger, and their supervisors are more tired.
"So I'm the boss and you're the employees!" Zhang Yuan was in a good mood, showed a hint of a smile, and said humorously.
The profit earned in half a month is so high, it can be said that it is the most in the current game, and the development should be one of the fastest.
All this made Zhang Yuan satisfied, but he also knew that the development and growth space of Xihe Town was not very large, and Qian Tian had already begun to prepare for industrial transformation, after all, the transportation industry of "Expedition" was very underdeveloped, and the reason why the war horse business was so popular was that players could take advantage of the convenience of taking the post station and quickly appearing in any city.
But with the increase of lord players, the windfall profits are still the same, but the total number of war horse resources is so much, and there will definitely be insufficient points at that time, and there will also be wars, which further reduces this windfall profits.
"Now it's time for you, the boss, to solve the problem! One of our medium-sized caravans in the grassland was robbed, and we lost one-third of our finances, which is estimated to bring you more than 10,000 taels, that is, more than 1.2 million RMB! And the intangible loss caused by wasting time is even more, and it is estimated that the minimum is about 100,000 taels! ”
"Going to the grassland is three times the profit, and coming back to the war horse business of more than 30,000 taels can reach about 180 taels per horse, that is, a loss of about 100,000 taels. In addition to making favors, connections, purchased slaves or resurrection flags, these losses are incalculable! Guo Ya said.
"What? Which tribe did it? Zhang Yuan bounced up, his face was pale, and he was furious, the loss of tens of thousands of RMB from the Black Jiao incident had already made him feel pain for a while, but compared to this time, it was a small thing.
'One million dollars, nearly 10 million losses, Nima! When the money of labor and management is picked up, right? Tired and tired for half a month, it seems that I have made a lot of money, but I have invested it all again, and I haven't really received a dime!!! Zhang Yuan's heart spurted wildly.
If he doesn't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive, his good life is all counting on "Expedition".
Just like knowing that players will be unable to help but stretch out their hands sooner or later, Zhang Yuan knows that doing business on the grassland will be robbed sooner or later, and windfall profits are also accompanied by risks, don't look at the fact that he has earned more than 50 million or hundreds of millions of transactions in half a month, but he will also lose money at any time.
But when he thought of more than one million, equivalent to one-fiftieth of the net income in this half a month, Zhang Yuan still felt extremely painful, if he or Qian Tian they spent it, it would be fine, but they were robbed, and they really dripped!
"Because the intelligence network has only just begun to prepare, and even the director has not been recruited, I don't know much, I can only judge from some information obtained from the business, it may be the hand of a medium-sized Jurchen tribe of more than 3,000 people nearby!"
"Medium-sized tribes? What kind of cargo was that medium-sized caravan carrying? Zhang Yuan thought calmly and asked.
"Very common things, salt, tea, and grain! It's all a big deal traded by the steppe tribes! Guo Ya asked suspiciously, after all, she had never been in contact with the military, so she couldn't see through what this had to do with being looted.
Seeing this, Zhang Yuan explained: "The grassland tribes are not short of war horses and livestock, except for horse thieves who specialize in plundering, or the caravan guards are too weak, and they bring enough money, otherwise they can pay it back, and they will not loot!" One is that the casualties are not clear, and the other is also for long-term consideration, if the merchants are all killed, where will the necessities of life such as salt, tea, and food come in the future? Is it possible that tens of thousands of people die every year and can't fight grass and valley? If this is the case, I am afraid that it will not be a few years before all the grassland tribes will be wiped out. ”
"You mean they're so poor that they can't even afford anything? Impossible, such a big tribe must have a lot of livestock! Guo Ya said in surprise, even she couldn't believe it.
"Well, it should be that the poor can only rob it! Don't look at the fact that his tribe has a large population, but if other big tribes transfer the harm to him, he can only choose to give in in the face of extinction and hunger. However, they choose to transfer the loss to us again, killing people and goods, and they really do not deserve sympathy! Zhang Yuan said coldly, he has no way out of this matter, and the quiet in "Expedition" is a slow death.
"Poor man, there will be something to hate! It really doesn't deserve sympathy! Guo Ya sighed, in the end, they are the innocent victims, if the second offender does not take revenge, it is really brainless.
"Well, no matter, it seems that the grassland has begun to be unstable! In the future, it is better for them to form a large caravan and reduce the volume of goods by half! "Zhang Yuan sees the overall situation more deeply than Guo Ya.
Unlike the interior of the Han Dynasty, the grassland was composed of five small caravans, consisting of more than fifty elite soldiers and a strong force of a hundred strong guards.
Such a liliang was completely unnecessary in the Han Dynasty, but it was not strong in the grassland, but it was enough to protect the goods that were not valuable.
But he didn't expect that there were still grassland tribes attacking them, Zhang Yuan had to deduce, that can only show one problem, some tribes are already poor and their lives are worthless, and they are willing to lose their troops for the sake of that poor goods.
"Large caravans? Then our profits will be much lower again! And if you bring less than half of the goods, I suggest adding light and easy-to-carry luxury goods, otherwise the development will inevitably slow down! Guo Ya said.
"This is something that can't be helped, the grassland is going to be chaotic, I don't know how big this turmoil is, but it won't be small, and it's better to reduce profits than losses! If you are a luxury, you and Qian Tian will discuss, and I have no opinion on safety. Generally speaking, there is not much danger in the case of large caravans now, and if no one disrupts it, this chaos will only occur among small and medium-sized tribes! ”
After explaining, Zhang Yuan came to the barracks.
Asked to call Ba Dinghan and other centurions, and when everyone arrived, Zhang Yuan opened his mouth and asked, "At present, how many people can we use?" ”
"In addition to Liliang, who has to guard Xihe Town, you can draw out three hundred elites composed of strong soldiers in a hundred battles, and if necessary, draw retired soldiers from the caravan, and you can also draw two hundred elite ......!" Zhang Guan Li Dai said.
At this time, Zhang Guan and Li Dai officially became the chief instructor of Xihe Town, specializing in the training of soldiers in Xihe Town.
Since the business is on the right track, the Liliang of the army is also improving in an all-round way, with more than 10,000 aboriginal employees, of which more than 2,000 are non-commissioned officers, and more than 300 are non-commissioned players. Moreover, in order to be able to improve their strength, Zhang Yuan even let them enter the 'secret realm' for training, otherwise with the first tenfold profiteering, and then more than three times the war horse and salt business, his profit in half a month may be even higher.
"Don't need too much, choose the most elite three hundred people! This time, let's go to the real fight! ”
"Ding, enter the battlefield, and before the war is over, neither the dead player nor the aborigines can be resurrected!"
Zhang Yuan thought about it for a while, at this time it was an eventful spring, the safety of Xihe Town was the first priority, and he didn't think that the opponent was so strong that he wanted him to pull up all the well-trained teams.
