"Because, the merchants' armed forces are carefully calculated. Don't look at them transporting a lot of supplies here. Most of these things can be sold. I checked the warehouse yesterday, and there are still silk, tea, old-fashioned The flintlock, these things, can we use them in war?" The lieutenant asked back.

"Well, these things are definitely not used for fighting." The second lieutenant replied.

"Yes. I think those damn businessmen are already thinking of trying to touch the people of Dawan." The lieutenant said contemptuously.

"How do you say it?" the second lieutenant asked the lieutenant.

"When I went to inspect the prisoners of war yesterday, I remembered that some people from the Western Regions who could understand our language were taken away by those businessmen. They said that it was their spoils of war. I plan to use these people to reflect The information we should have obtained, at the very least, we should know what we should know, but we didn’t expect it. The businessman actually thought of going ahead of us. Damn it.” The lieutenant cursed loudly.

"Perhaps." The second lieutenant didn't know how to explain it himself.

"Perhaps, they are trying to figure out how to make money. The military supplies brought in are getting less and less↓ food, and they even stuffed away all the medicines except ammunition. All the goods brought in are old-fashioned flintlock guns. They want Sell ​​these old-fashioned weapons to the Dawan people. Silk, tea, these are things that only the upper class of the Dawan people get, and now they have it." The lieutenant said dissatisfied.

"Okay." The second lieutenant said at this time.

"I know, at this point, we shouldn't go on," said the lieutenant.

"However, these merchants are not here to fight at all, they are here to do business, to do business, and this is what they care about every day, they can put military supplies at the end to transport, if they can, they can't wait to build the railway to Come here and do business directly with the Dawan people." The lieutenant said dissatisfied.In his opinion, the businessmen's armed forces have a big flaw in this Mazha Mountain battle, that is, their combat effectiveness is average, and their organizational ability is not as good as that of the army. The most important point is that the businessmen have a lot of decision-making power in the command.This made the lieutenant very dissatisfied.

"Okay. What we came here to observe is not to cause trouble. We have nothing to do with these things. There must be reasons for these businessmen to handle this matter." I understand why the higher authorities can't spend more money to completely eliminate the Dawan people. The Dawan people's combat effectiveness is very weak, and they can completely ignore them. With only 1 troops, they can quickly occupy this country. In that case, Military merit is absolutely indispensable.The second lieutenant thought about it, and then went straight to sleep.

Southern Xinjiang.

"The contract must be signed in the language of the state of Qin, otherwise we will not approve it. We will establish a training base in the border area between our state of Qin and your Yuezhi people. You can buy weapons and equipment. We will provide training and some logistics guarantee materials , we can subsidize a batch of you, but you will need to deal with the vast majority of the following.” Wang Ben said to a Yuezhi person sitting in front of him.

"In addition to our cooperation, there are other things. We can buy enough weapons and ammunition for you. In addition, there are other materials to help you train and defeat the Parthians. Then you can do business. These I It doesn't matter, I will provide the goods to you, and you can sell them, that's all." Wang Ben said.

"We can't understand the characters of the Qin Dynasty, and I can only read very little. Me." The Yuezhi people looked at Wang Ben and said.But Wang Ben hesitated.

"No matter what, I only want to make money, and help you fight the Parthians. As for other things, you can exchange good things from the Parthians. In short, things are still beneficial to you. Sign this contract, then we can start these things quickly." Wang Ben said to the other party.The Yuezhi people looked at the contract and hesitated.

"Crack." Wang Ben patted the table at this moment.

"Hurry up. Otherwise we will start a war with you." Wang Ben looked at the other party impatiently.The chief of staff at the side looked at Wang Ben at this time, he couldn't imagine that Wang Ben would directly threaten the other party.

"Okay. Okay, I'll sign it, I'll sign it." As he spoke, Yuezhi signed his name on the contract.Wang Ben took it over and looked at it.

"Sign it in our own words, otherwise it will be invalid." Wang Ben said impatiently.

The Yuezhi people looked at Wang Ben nervously, and then had to write their own name crookedly. After Wang Ben took it over and looked at it, he nodded and turned to leave. The Yuezhi people waited for the Qin people to ask them what to do next.

"Now the Yuezhi people have a contract. With this, we can make a big splash." Wang Ben excitedly said to his chief of staff.

"It's just that we don't know when the Yuezhi people will give us money. We can only grow if we earn the first step of money. Otherwise, we will have big problems if we randomly mobilize an army." The chief of staff worried Speaking of.

"Yeah." Wang Ben nodded.

"I'll solve this matter. Just report the situation here to the staff. They will solve it. As for the salary for the first step, you and I have to come together. The money is not worth it. Small." Wang Ben said.

"Well. I'm also worried. If the Yuezhi people can't come according to the contract, I'm afraid we still don't have enough money." The chief of staff said to Wang Ben in embarrassment.

"If it's not enough, it's not enough, let's talk about it first." Wang Ben left without caring.

In the city of Changsha, Chu State.

"This is the news we have heard from the nobles of the Chu Kingdom." Xiang Yan was very anxious, and handed several letters to Xiang Liang.Xiang Liang checked quickly.What he saw was that the nobles of the state of Chu were arresting people in various places and transporting them to the state of Qin.Because of the lack of people, population trading can bring great benefits.

"When did this happen?" Xiang Liang asked anxiously.

"I just received it not long ago. It should have happened when you were doing business for the first time." Xiang Yan speculated.

"The state of Qin is going to empty out the population of our state of Chu," Xiang Liang said.

"But there is no way. Without these people, we would not have the first capital. Now, we must stop the population business and transfer it to other directions." Xiang Yan said decisively.

"It's just, not yet." Xiang Liangyi said.

"Why?" Xiang Yan asked.

"Our funds are not enough. The most important thing is that we have no projects to do at present. Although we have a commercial organization, business cooperation with Qin people and business is not our specialty. In this way, we can't do it naturally. Start business quickly." Xiang Liang said.

"Yeah. But the business of this population can no longer continue." Xiang Yanyi said.

"If things go on like this, the population loss of Chu will be extremely serious. This will be very bad for us, no, absolutely no." Xiang Yan said.

"It's not as good as this. Let's continue the population business. We will change the merchant ships of Rongguo, and then go south to find people overseas. In this way, the population will be replenished." Xiang Liang said.

"Well. It's just a matter of concern, and the time can't be delayed for too long." Xiang Yan said.

"It will be fast. However, if the tariffs between nobles and merchant ships cannot break through these tariff barriers, it will always be difficult to carry out business. These nobles are difficult to deal with." Xiang Liang said worriedly at this time.

"This matter, I think, I will go to the son to solve it. If this matter can be resolved, the problem of Chu State will not be big. Everyone has a way to survive. This also gives us an important opportunity for Chu State .” Xiang Yan said.

"Yeah." Xiang Liang said.

"I will buy ships from the people of Qin. However, I have a suggestion. If we do business, it will definitely not work. Why don't we find a few businessmen to help us do it, and let them do it according to their own ideas. If so, the business they do is the business we want to do, I don’t know, what does the general think?” Xiang Yan asked.

1961 The Purpose of Going West

The confluence of the western plain and the eastern mountains of the Korean peninsula.

The flag of Yan State on a fortification of Yan State is flying, the weather is clear, and there was a heavy snowfall here not long ago.A Yan soldier stood on a high lookout post to check the surrounding situation. He kept checking the surrounding situation with binoculars.But nothing.The soldiers of Yan State kept rubbing their hands and exhaling because of the cold.

"This damned broken place, these Goguryeos deserve to die." Inside the fortifications, an officer of the Yan Army cursed loudly.

"All the men are going to die, and the women are going to be killed by us." A veteran of the Yan Army said obscenely.

"Hehe." The other soldiers gathered around the fire also laughed.

"Look at you, you're so promising, you can't move your legs when you see a woman. Damn it." The officer said angrily.

"Hehe." The old soldier rubbed his nose and laughed sheepishly.

"Damn it, you are still embarrassed. Last time, you caught a Xiao. Damn it. After I finished it, how long did you do it, and the brothers behind were almost suffocated. You are still embarrassed." Officer scolded.

"Hehe." The old soldier couldn't help laughing.

"Sir, it's really meaningless to go on like this. Let's go out and look around, let's talk about it. We don't have much supplies. The brothers who sent the supplies originally came once a month, but now it's okay I haven't seen them once for a month and a half." A Yan Army soldier with the rank of corporal said dissatisfiedly.

"Yes. It is indeed." The officer looked at the people around him, and then at the mixed dough balls baked on the stove.This thing is simply not edible, and their supplies have not been seen for a month and a half.Originally, one month's food was enough.Now it's been half a month longer, and they can only mix the wild vegetables around them with their last bit of food to make something like this.This food is very unpalatable, but I am very hungry, so I can't eat it.

"It's just that when we go out, there are Goguryeo people, and they keep attacking us. They are all around us. We can't see them, but they can see us. If this goes on, it won't be good for us." The officer worried Speaking of.

"Sir, we don't go far away, we are just around, and there are some people around, we can take these out." A second-class soldier suggested.

"Besides, we come back during the day, and we are not afraid of the enemy's sneak attack at night. If we gather together and act together, then they will have nothing to do with us." Another soldier suggested.

"Yeah." The officer nodded.
