Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 316, money-making business
In just over ten days, only more than [-] slaves, Qiao Yong earned [-] taels of silver. He felt as if he had been beaten with chicken blood. There is a more profitable business than this in the world. ?
Salt, tea, horses, and iron are far inferior to this business. He seems to have seen a golden road of golden light, and he seems to have discovered a new continent.

The whole person immediately returned to Datong without stopping, ready to see if he could sell some slaves to the capital. One slave earns sixty taels of silver. This kind of business is really profitable.

"Master Liu, I don't know if you have any grassland prisoners in your hands, I want them all."

When I came to Datong, I still found Liu Yu familiar with the way, and asked again if there were any prisoners.

"No more, I gave you everything last time. The little prince went to Gansu and Shaanxi."

Liu Yu smiled and shook his head. This time he really made a lot of money and made great contributions to defending the city. The above reward orders have already arrived, and he has already recruited people to communicate with fellow Liu Jian. It is estimated that it will be soon. Then you can leave this bitterly cold border town area and transfer to the capital.

The more than [-] captives last time brought him another [-] taels of silver, which is very important. After leaving here, there is no doubt that he will not have a share in the horse market business. If you want to make money in the capital, it is not as easy as in the border town.

But when you arrive in the capital, there are more places that need to use money. It is not easy to manage relationships and socialize in the capital. It is also the same for them who are officials. Difficult to open.

So he is also a little worried now, should he go to the capital? If he goes to the capital, he may not be able to find a real vacancy for the time being. Although it is a promotion, it is better to make a fortune in a place far away from the emperor.

The business of this horse market is very profitable. The worthless horses on the grassland are transported to the silver, and the worthless salt, iron, and tea in the pass are also a waste of money when transported to the grassland. I have been working here for a year. At least one hundred thousand snowflakes can be earned, and a few more years of work will be enough.

"there is none left?"

When Qiao Yong heard this, he was slightly disappointed, and hoped that there would be a few more rounds, so that he could easily earn hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

"It seems that Boss Qiao made a lot of money from the goods last time."

Liu Yu looked at Qiao Yong, smiled and said.

"I am dissatisfied with Mr. Liu. It is true that I have earned some hard money. These goods are still very popular in the capital, so if Mr. Liu still has such goods behind, even if you send someone to contact me, the price will still be the same. I will ask for as much as I have. "

Qiao Yong smiled and said, this matter cannot be hidden from others, and everyone will know it soon, so he has nothing to hide, not to mention that Liu Yu and Master Liu in front of him are not ordinary people, and there are many people in the capital. Contacts, what's the matter, just ask around and you'll know.

"I also want to get the goods, but they have all gone to the west. Where can I get this kind of goods? I want to sell myself for a twenty taels of silver."

Liu Yu smiled and said, it was only [-] captives, and he got [-] taels of silver, so this business can be done.

"Master Liu was joking~"

Qiao Yong smiled and said, feeling a little regretful in his heart, such a lucrative business can only be done once, which is really a pity, after he has tasted the sweetness, he even wants to go to the grassland to snatch people.

"Snatching people on the grassland~"

Qiao Yong's mind suddenly flashed brightly, and he was taken aback by his bold idea.

People from the prairie have always come to the pass to plunder, robbing food, salt, iron pots, and women. As long as they can rob anything, they rob it all. I have never heard of anyone who dared to go to the grassland. Grab those prairie people.

Thinking of this, Qiao Yong couldn't help but shook his head slightly. It was absurd that he would even think of going to the grassland to rob the grassland people.

"Boss Qiao, Boss Qiao, what are you thinking?"

Here Liu Yu saw that Qiao Yong was absent-minded and seemed to be thinking about something, so he shook his head slightly and asked curiously.

"Oh~"

"Sorry~Sorry~"

Qiao Yong apologized with a smile, and then said: "Just now I was thinking in my mind that these two sheep are worth twenty taels of silver each, and I thought that if I went to catch them on the grassland, wouldn't it be a good deal."

"It's just that they have always been the only ones who came to our Central Plains to plunder, but we have never robbed the grasslands, so they shook their heads slightly, which is really a bit whimsical."

Qiao Yong said while laughing at himself.

"Go to the grassland to plunder?"

When Liu Yu heard it, his eyes widened slightly, and he was a little dumbfounded.

"That's right, since they don't come, we can go to them. A two-legged sheep is twenty taels of silver. Some people will be willing to try it on the grassland."

Then Liu Yu slapped his thigh fiercely, and he stood up excitedly.

He is very clear about the situation of these frontier soldiers under his command. Don't look at them as frontier soldiers, but in fact, they are all suffering. Many people are poor and don't even have food, so they come to the barracks to make a living. Eat, at least there is food in the barracks.

The dilapidated military households say that they are them. Whether they are frontier soldiers or military households in the guards, they are all synonymous with the poorest in this era. It is very difficult to marry a daughter-in-law. The children and grandchildren born are all dilapidated military households, who will marry?
A group of bitter people, the poor are dying, so that he can't stand the trilateral system anymore, drink the blood of soldiers, eat the meat of soldiers, and they can't get a few taels of silver at all, which is why he wants to open the horse market up.

Liu Yu stood up, walked back and forth, and quickly calculated in his mind that he would be promoted to the capital soon, and he would go south if he wanted to make money after leaving here, so he might as well make more money while he was here.

For a two-legged sheep with twenty taels of silver, let the people below do it by yourself, and it is enough to give them ten taels of silver. If you get one back, you can earn ten taels of silver. This business can be done.

Qiao Yong on the side looked dumbfounded, he was just talking nonsense, but Master Liu Yu Liu actually took it seriously, how could this prairie man be so easy to catch?

Maybe someone didn't catch him, but his own life was sent in.

"Master Liu, Master Liu, I'm just talking nonsense like this, you must not take it seriously, this has always been the grassland people who robbed us, there is no reason for us to rob them."

Qiao Yong said repeatedly.

"Kou can go, so can I~"

"They can come and rob us, why can't we rob them?"

Liu Yu is already obsessed with money at this time, and he doesn't care about so much at all. As long as he can earn money, he doesn't care about so much. He dares to set up a private horse market, and he dare not do anything, let alone , the looters were prairie people, let alone.

As for what to say, there are people above him. Liu Jian, the chief minister of the cabinet, is a fellow from his hometown, and he is very appreciative of him, and his immediate boss, Ma Wensheng, is even more fond of him.

What's more, Liu Yu has always understood the principle of equal benefit. He opened the horse market, and everyone benefited from it. The eunuchs sent by Emperor Hongzhi did not lose money. Thoroughly.

He is very clear that it doesn't matter what you do, what matters is that you can lead everyone to earn money, make everyone profitable, and distribute the benefits well, so it doesn't matter what you do.

The colleagues around me will live in harmony with me and support me, and the brothers under me will make money, not to mention, everyone is doing it all year round for some white money.

"Here, Mr. Liu, will something happen?"

Qiao Yong still said with some worry.

"Don't worry, what can happen, but can you raise the price a little bit?"

Liu Yu said confidently, and after thinking about it, he discussed with Qiao Yong the price of the two-legged sheep.

"Master Liu, if it is really possible, I can give you another ten taels of silver, thirty taels of silver, as much as you have, both male and female."

After thinking about it, Liu Yu still added ten taels of silver. As long as this business can be done for a long time, among other things, if he can earn more than a thousand taels a month, he can earn tens of thousands of taels of silver. A few thousand, then really make a lot of money.

"Okay, it's a deal~"

When Liu Yu heard this, he immediately laughed happily.

Liu Yu is a group of activists. After negotiating the conditions with Qiao Yong, he immediately called the eunuchs guarding the border town and generals at all levels to a meeting. People divide the silver according to their positions and grades.

Then I told everyone what I had discussed with Qiao Yong. The price of thirty taels of silver immediately made all of these people's eyes red.

Where can I find such a deal?

There are almost no problems. Everyone expresses their willingness to make money with Mr. Liu. Anyway, they don't need to go out to arrest people on the grassland. What they need to do is to maintain a unified caliber and suppress this matter. As for how to go to the grassland to arrest people , Naturally, the following frontier troops will do it.

As long as there are things that can be earned with money, there are people who can do them, and there are ways. After all, there are more ways than difficulties, and nothing is a problem in front of money.

After the meeting, Liu Yu and his superiors quickly spread the news one level at a time, and the defenders in the entire border town of Datong soon knew about it.

……

Above the city gate of Datong, the cold wind howled, the university floated in the sky, and the night was shrouded, but there were still teams of people on duty above the city gate to prevent the grassland people from attacking at night.

"Brothers, come here and enjoy the fire~"

Tang Sandao called over a dozen of his brothers, surrounded by a pot of charcoal fire while warming up, also preparing to tell the big guys about the above things.

"Brothers, just now I went to the meeting at the top, and the top told us a way to get rich, just to see if the big guy dares to do it."

Tang San took a look at the dozen or so people under him, he was considered a small captain, he had no rank, in fact he was about the same as an ordinary military household, but because his ancestral sword technique still had two hits, so Just became a captain.

"Brother Tang, can you give us a way to get rich?"

When Ma Houzi heard this, he couldn't help laughing coldly, he has been a soldier for many years, he has always taken advantage of the superiors, and he has never seen any benefits from the superiors, it is not bad if he does not eat their meat and drink their blood.

"That's it~"

Lei Gong's face, which was as black as charcoal, followed suit.

"Brothers, don't believe me, this time there is really a way to get rich."

Tang Sandao smiled and said, in fact, he didn't believe it at first, he was too clear about what kind of piss the people above were, but this time it seemed to be true.

"Didn't we fight two battles with the prairie people some time ago? At that time, we captured a lot of prisoners, horse monkey, Lei Gonglian, and Cyclops. You all went to clean up the battlefield, and you all captured a prisoner yourself. remember?"

"Remember, of course I remember, don't look at those prairie people who are very fierce, in fact, they are just like that, I knocked his knife away with a stick."

When Lei Gonglian heard this, he immediately smiled and boasted, in fact, the prisoner was injured in his hand, couldn't hold the knife steadily, and was blown away by his stick, and now he has become the capital he often brags about.

"Let me tell you, that prisoner was sold to the capital. Guess how much money he sold?"

Tang Sandao nodded, and then said in a deliberately tantalizing way.

"Sold it to the capital? Those officials bought it to claim credit."

Upon hearing this, the monkey horse said immediately.

"I guess it can be sold for a few taels of silver."

Cyclops is very tall, with only one eye and a scar on his face. He is a ruthless character who kills enemies bravely.

"No, they were sold to those factories and workshops in the capital. Last time we caught all these captives and sold them to those places. One captive can be sold for twenty taels of silver."

"This is how I get rich. The higher-ups here allow us to catch these two-legged sheep on the grassland. As long as we catch one and bring it back, the higher-ups will give us fifteen taels of silver, and the money will be paid on the spot. This is It is something that the President has guaranteed."

Tang Sandao finally confessed and told the matter.

"Twenty taels of silver?"

When Ma Houzi heard this, his eyes widened immediately, and he said, "We caught twenty taels of silver that day."

"Fifteen taels of silver a piece?"

The remaining eye of the one-eyed dragon turned red all of a sudden. Fifteen taels of silver. They are soldiers who work here all the time, and they only have one mouthful to eat. As for the silver, it has long been deducted by the top It's been a long time since they have received any money.

"Is this reliable or not?"

Lei Gong licked his lips, swallowed and said.

"Absolutely reliable~ The higher-ups have already guaranteed it time and again. This is guaranteed by the chief executive himself. He has already spoken. As long as he can catch the two-legged sheep on the grassland, he will pay [-] taels of silver each, and he will not default on the cash. , if anyone dares to deduct, you can go to him."

Tang Sandao said with certainty.

"Fifteen taels of silver ah, if you catch a few, it will be enough for us to be chic for a long time."

The one-eyed dragon's remaining eye shone brightly.

"What do you say, if you want to do this business, let's go to the grassland together. The above also said that as long as you dare to go, you can apply for horses, bows, and armor. These are not problems."

Tang Sandao looked at the crowd and said, he could see that the three people, Ma Houzi, Cyclops, and Lei Gonglian, were very courageous. As long as they were given money, they would do nothing. Say something.

"Go, why don't you do it? Starve the cowardly to death. Fifteen taels of silver. I've never encountered such a good deal."

Cyclops was the first to speak, he was just a prostitute, the kind who fears nothing.

"Count me in, I've been poor all my life, it's rare to have a chance."

Monkey Horse followed suit.

"Count me into one, anyway, it's a cheap life. If you die on this city wall, you will die, and if you die on the grassland, you will die. If you can come back alive, you will go to the red building to find a few sisters who are chic and chic."

Lei Gong said with a slightly excited face.

"Anyone else?"

"Think about it, everyone. We are all military households, the most down-and-out military households. Of our dozen or so brothers, it seems that only three of you, Qin Sange, Li Er, and Wang Shugen, have married wives. And the three of you It’s all about changing relatives to marry a daughter-in-law.”

"Could it be that we big guys will be single all our lives, or we will be poor all our lives?"

"In the past, there was no chance, and we had no choice but to accept our fate. But now, we finally have a chance. Think about it, everyone. A two-legged sheep is worth fifteen taels of silver. I don't know how many there are on this grassland. Men and women both , even children can be considered half price.”

"And everyone knows that the little prince led his army to the west. What does this mean? It means that there is nothing decent on the grassland."

"We can pretend to be prairie people. We don't need to fight hard at that time. Prepare some sweat medicine or something. Find an opportunity to easily get some people back and earn the money."

"The Chinese New Year is coming soon, don't you guys want to have a good New Year as you imagined?"

Tang Sandao looked at the other silent people, of course he knew that these people were afraid, it took courage to go to the grassland to snatch people.

"Brother Tang, count me in. I've done it, mother. I've had enough of a life like this."

Soon, someone said harshly, apparently also moved.

"Count me in~"

Li Er, who was pointed out, said: "I've seen enough of the mother-in-law's face at home. If you want to fight, you will die on the grassland at worst."

"I'm going too~"

Wang Shugen also stood up, thinking that the children and mother-in-law in the family had followed him for so many years and had never had a good day, so he hated him.

As someone opened his mouth, others saw it and joined in one after another, which made Tang Sandao also smile.
