In the evening, Fei E and the other four old friends sat in the restaurant next to them for dinner.

What I drank was the Hongluoxiang brought by Boss Gu.

The atmosphere is definitely not as warm as before, but it is still with joy.

Although there is still a little panic and uneasy in this joy.

After three rounds of drinking, the spirit of drinking surged up, and everyone's speech became more and more open.

"Oh, I was blackmailed for 2,000 taels of silver today. I feel sorry! It's all my profit for a year!" Boss Gu said lamentingly.

"Just blow!"

Boss Wang gave him a blank look, "Your silk has always been selling well. Who believes that you don't have an income of 20,000 or 30,000 taels a year?"

"Not that much! Really!" Boss Gu shook his hands repeatedly, looking serious.

But no one believes this.

But it is someone else's business to make more money and no one else can control it.

But Boss Zhu next to him smiled, "I think this time the Shiwei people are a bit weird!"

"Oh? Why is it strange?" Fei E asked while drinking.

"They seem to have suddenly become a different person, not as arrogant as before, nor as violent as the legendary ones." Boss Zhu said: "Do you know how much money they have asked me?"

"You have so many carriages parked in the large yard behind, so I'm afraid you'll have to spend two or three thousand taels?" said Boss Wang.

"Wrong!"

Boss Zhu said: "They only need five hundred taels of silver for me."

"How could it be!?"

Fei E was immediately dissatisfied, "I gave 1,000 taels... Lao Zhu, your business is so big, why is it only 500 taels?"

"Stop making trouble!" Boss Wang said thoughtfully at this time: "Old Zhu, what do you think?"

Boss Zhu said: "I think they have some understanding of each of our industries. They basically charge according to the size and size, and even charge according to the quality of an operation!"

"Hey, why don't you say they are like tax collectors in the court?" Boss Gu sneered, "How do these barbarians understand these?"

"No, it's really possible!" said Boss Zhu, "Otherwise, how do you explain that they only asked me for five hundred taels of silver?"

"Uh... this is pretty good." Boss Wang also agreed: "Didn't you react? This time, their attitude was a bit stiff, as long as you pay the money honestly, they did not act rudely at all! And they left after receiving the money, without any harassment, and no snatching anything."

"Is it because the Shiwei people suddenly went crazy?" Boss Gu sneered: "No matter what, it is such an act of snatching our wealth, which is done by barbarians!"

"Anyway, I think they have changed a little bit." Boss Zhu sighed.

"If it's all like this, is there anything wrong with it?" Fei E said with a smile after eating a piece of meat.

"Look! You think so, I don't know how many people think so!" Boss Wang gently patted the table, "If they change, then it will be dangerous for our Dakang!"

"We are doing business here, whether it is Dakang or Shiwei, just let us do business well." Boss Gu didn't care, "They have become better, I dare to open the business to their four capitals!"

Shiwei has four major cities, namely Shangjing, Zhongjing, Zuojing and Youjing, both of which are "big cities" with a population of more than 300,000.

There are many rich and nobles living here, which are very wealthy as legendary.

Unfortunately, for various reasons, Dakang merchants could not enter directly.

If the Shiwei people made more changes to the businessmen, then the Dakang merchants would definitely be willing to do business there.

In order to make money, they are brave enough to be as big as they say.

Boss Zhu smiled coldly when he heard this, "You have to remember clearly. If the Wei people became rich because of your help and had more various supplies, then after they arrived in Jiangnan, when they controlled everything, can your wife, daughters, grandchildren, and your property still be preserved?"

Boss Gu was speechless.

Fei E next to him remembered his family, they were in Shandong!

Once the Shiwei people broke through the defense line in western Liaoning this time, they could directly attack Hebei and Shandong in the next step!

This is absolutely unacceptable to Fei'e!

With the character of Shi Wei Manzi, he entered that flower world. How could he be as restrained as he is now?

"You said, this time the Wei Wei won't succeed?" Fei E swallowed and asked, "The defense lines of our Jinzhou City, Ningyuan City and Shanhaiguan are as solid as a slap. They can't beat them, right?"

“This is not necessarily.”

Boss Zhu, who was passionate just now, sighed: "If the Shiwei people have made great changes, they will definitely not only treat us. It is very likely that they have made a lot of preparations for the siege."

Boss Gu said: "I thought they were here to blackmail once, and then pretended to be in the city of Jinzhou, so I went home happily!"

"I hope that the powerful Jinzhou city defense can make them retreat!" Boss Wang said, "If it doesn't work... it will be troublesome! Without Dakang confronting them here, the Liaoxi Corridor has become their pocket. What is the meaning of existence for those of us who do business here?"

Boss Fei E and Gu immediately took a breath of air conditioning.

yes!

Originally, it was just a place where the two countries had a good time to do business.

If Jinzhou City is lost, it will become the territory of Shiwei State. They are doing business in Shiwei, so how can they get it?

...

While several bosses were talking, they crossed the Linghe River and built a camp around the Linghe River.

Yelu Feiyang, the third prince of Shiwei, is discussing matters with a group of generals.

Sitting on his left was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a mighty appearance, bright eyes and a very calm demeanor.

The second person was a man in his thirties who was very majestic and had calluses on his hands, and he was obviously a long-time general in the army.

The third one was a short man, who was in his forties and had a fierce face. Even if he was silent, he seemed to exude a cold breath.

The fourth one is that he has a little thin figure, a very dark skin, and looks a little weak.

The last one was tall and burly, and was even taller than the other tallest ones here. He was wearing only a single dress and was covered in bulging muscles.

As for the group of people on the right, there were his cousin Yelu Anxiang, his most trusted military advisor Han Mu, and several aides who were good at setting up formation strategies, two of which were scholars from Dakang.

Gao Du, an aide who had just walked in, took a list and said: "All the shops and shops in the nearby town gave donations as required, totaling 835,200 taels of silver."

"so much?!"

Zupuguz, who once followed Yelu Anxiang to Dakang, exclaimed: "With so much money, even if we spend one or two years this trip, we don't have to worry about insufficient military and pensions!"

"I want to tell me that since we are going to attack Jinzhou City, why do these merchants do?" The short man snorted coldly: "Catch them all, and don't squeeze every drop of oil dry, and don't let them go... In this case, it will be at least 30 to 50 million taels of silver? Not only can we deal with the expenses, but the cannon fodder servants will also have as much as they want. Without us urging them, they can come by themselves!"

"You are afraid to take a picture!"

Wu Lizhen, the first on the left, scolded: "Are you questioning the decision of His Highness the Third Prince?"

The short man was the commander of the Wild Wolf Army in Shiwei's army, named Erqian. He was cruel by nature and was often ordered to wipe out the tribes that were disobedient and resisted Shiwei.

Any small tribe that was suppressed by him can be described as "nothing can be born".

So on this grassland, the evil name of this Erqin's photo was very popular.

But no matter how cruel he was, he did not dare to be arrogant in front of Wu Lizhen.

Because Wu Li Zhen was the only marshal of Shi Wei, not only did he work hard and made great contributions, but he also used his troops in a superb way. He also took photos of the 50,000 iron army in his hand.

This is the case on the grassland. Who has the greatest ability and speaks louder.

Therefore, when I heard Wu Lizhen scolding, I took a photo and did not speak wildly again.

Of course, not everyone thinks so.

Lu Tushu, one of the same generals, said, "The more money, the better. If we spend 20 million taels of silver, we can smash Jinzhou City just by using money."

"It's easy for you to say. How can so many people work hard?" Yelu Feiyang said: "It is the maximum limit for us to recruit 150,000 subordinate troops. If there are too many, we can't stand it ourselves, and there will be huge troubles to control it."

"Well, the third prince is talking about it." Han Mu, the first aide, said: "Now our headquarters has only sold 70,000 troops. If they come 200,000 to 300,000, there are some things that are hard to say."

"What's wrong with it?" Erqian left a photo and smiled faintly: "Let them go to attack the city and consume it. Anyway, they are so poor that they have only one life left. If you capture Jinzhou City and Ningyuan City, what do you want? Silver, women, food, jewelry, weapons... Thinking about these, I'm drooling, let alone these poor people!"

Although Shiwei already has four cities, most Shiwei people are still living a poor life.

As long as a nation that does not farm and lives on God, there will be great risks.

Often a blizzard will cause a large tribe to collapse.

Therefore, our Chinese nation is very great. We have chosen a difficult path from ancient times to the present - relying on ourselves.

This is how farming is, and so is development.

After being abandoned by the polar bears, the same is true for us to grit our teeth.
