Chapter 500: Eunuch Huangs advice (fourth update, asking for diamonds)
Outside Chang'an City, inside the Royal Navy Barracks of the Tang Dynasty.
Luo Zhang's speech won warm praise from everyone, and also gave all the Royal Navy officers a sense of belonging. They felt that as long as they were a member of the Royal Navy of the Tang Dynasty, there was nothing to fear, and this place was theirs.
Home, their home is here, they are not afraid even if they die, their family will be properly taken care of, and they will not die in peace!
Eunuch Huang did not leave after delivering the things, but sat at Luo Zhang's table. He came today to represent His Majesty, so he naturally wanted to attend the banquet.
But what he didn't expect was that he would see such a scene, which shocked him deeply! At the same time, he also felt very gratified. He had watched Luo Zhang grow up step by step. Luo Zhang was able to do what he does now.
Luo Zhang did it all by himself, without relying on anyone!
Now, Luo Zhang has finally grown up, and he is happy for Luo Zhang!
There is always a banquet in the world. The banquet was held in a lively manner. Luo Zhang asked Yan Lailou to drink ten carts of six thousand kilograms of wine. As a result, people holding wine jars could be seen everywhere in the military camp.
The soldiers were soundly asleep.
Even when they fell asleep, there was a smile on their lips, a smile that came from the bottom of their hearts.
Luo Zhang is naturally not drunk. If he were drunk, today's drama would not be good. He has more important things to do!
After sending away some of the family members who wanted to send his children to the military camp today, Luo Zhang hurriedly came to Eunuch Huang. There were too many people just now, so he inevitably failed to take good care of Eunuch Huang. Now he wanted to say hello to Eunuch Huang.
have a drink.
As soon as he sat down, Eunuch Huang smiled and said, "Are you done?"
Luo Zhang smiled bitterly and said: "I'm done! This kind of thing is enough once. I won't do it in the future. It's too tiring!"
In front of Eunuch Huang, Luo Zhang naturally didn't need to pretend, he showed his true nature freely and freely!
But Eunuch Huang likes this about Luo Zhang, he is unpretentious and sincere!
"I'm impressed by your performance today. I didn't expect you to do this, but it was done well, wonderfully, and authentically! Even I want to see how your head grows, and you can actually do it.
Come up with that...hero monument!"
"Once this monument is erected, I'm afraid many people will imitate you, and it won't work if you don't!" Eunuch Huang said with a smile.
Luo Zhang rolled his eyes and said: "I'm afraid that instead of imitating me, you're just scolding me for not doing much!"
"Whether I scold you or imitate you, you were the first to do this. Whenever I mention this heroic monument, I will mention you. How do you think those soldiers will treat you? What you did this time is not good for you.
It has a hundred benefits and no harm!" Eunuch Huang analyzed it to Luo Zhang.
After hearing Eunuch Huang's words, Luo Zhang's eyes lit up. He hadn't thought much about it before. He just wanted to give the spirits of the dead soldiers a home, give the living people a sustenance, and give encouragement to those soldiers who were still fighting.
I didn’t expect that there were such huge benefits behind this matter.
Eunuch Huang's meaning is very obvious. Whenever the soldiers see this heroic monument, in addition to being grateful to their superior officers, they will also feel grateful to him.
Not to mention the Tang Dynasty, even the Han Dynasty did not have such a thing. No one would consider them as the lowest soldiers. They often died in battle and only received a document and a little money to send home, and then there was nothing more. It would not happen at all.
Think about what life will be like in the homes of those dead soldiers, whether your mother will be supported, whether your wife and children will be taken care of, and you won't think about how the family will collapse if the pillar of the family dies!
But things are different now. Luo Zhang caused this, and those commanders had to consider this, and all this was because of Luo Zhang!
This is also the reason why Luo Zhanghui said and scolded him. As a result, military expenditures will increase a lot, and various statistics will also be very cumbersome, which will also increase a lot of expenses!
Originally, there was no need to pay for these expenses. They were all Luo Zhang’s expense. If you don’t hate him, you’d be a ghost!
Luo Zhang doesn't care about this at all. Anyway, now he doesn't have to worry about too many debts, and he doesn't feel itchy when there are too many lice! Hate as much as you want, he won't lose a piece of meat!
However, for Eunuch Huang to say such heartfelt words to him, it can be seen that he is sincerely doing it for his own good. Naturally, Luo Zhang cannot be too presumptuous about this!
He bowed to Eunuch Huang and said, "Thank you so much, Eunuch Huang, for the tip. I understand!"
"Well, well, I've been here for a long time, and I have to go back to restore your Majesty's life! You still have something to do, so I won't disturb you anymore!" Eunuch Huang said with a smile.
"Congratulations to Eunuch Huang!"
After sending Eunuch Huang away, Luo Zhang indeed had something to do. In the Chinese army's tent, a group of heads of major families were sitting around a long table, waiting for Luo Zhang. Everyone had their own purposes.
, with your own thoughts!
When Luo Zhang came in, everyone's eyes turned to Luo Zhang who walked into the tent!
Being watched by so many people, Luo Zhang had a smile on his face, cupped his hands in front of everyone and said, "I just sent Eunuch Huang away, and I kept you waiting for a long time. Do you mind?"
When they heard that Luo Zhang was going to see Eunuch Huang off, everyone's original resentment was extinguished.
They are accompanying Eunuch Huang, what can they say? Could it be that you shouldn’t accompany Eunuch Huang, you should accompany us!
If anyone dares to say this, he is afraid that he will be impeached by everyone. Eunuch Huang represents His Majesty. If you ask Luo Zhang not to accompany Eunuch Huang to accompany you, are you more arrogant than His Majesty? Are you not seeking death?
"Why are you here today?" Luo Zhang walked to the main seat and sat down and asked.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one spoke, they were all waiting for others to speak first.
Seeing that no one was talking, Luo Zhang smiled again, "Isn't there no one talking? No one is talking, so I can only see the guests off."
After Luo Zhang finished speaking, he stood up as if he was really going to see off a guest!
"Master Luo, please don't, there is something wrong, we have something to do!" The head of the Xiao family spoke first.
Here, the person with a higher status and status is probably the head of the Xiao family!
The other major families are also powerful, but the Xiao family is a top family, the first family in the south of the Yangtze River. Naturally, he came with a huge mission this time. Connecting the north and the south has always been what the Xiao family wants to achieve.
, but it has never been successful.
It was the Xiao family who strongly supported the building of sea-going ships before. However, contrary to expectations, the sea-going ship built by the dockyard company failed, causing the Xiao family's plan to run aground!
It wasn't until Luo Zhang's Royal Navy of the Tang Dynasty defeated the Japanese and even came back unscathed that the Xiao family saw the light of day!
If we can get help from Luo Zhang Haijun, many of the Xiao family's industries in Jiangnan will be able to develop further, and even grow in Chang'an. It can be said to be a good thing that kills two birds with one stone!
Hearing the head of the Xiao family speak, Luo Zhang paused, sat down slowly, picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip and said, "Since the head of the Xiao family said something happened, let's talk about it."
"The main reason I came here this time is to discuss with you your shipping matter!" said the head of the Xiao family.
"We too want to discuss shipping goods with the Luo family!" Everyone felt that someone was taking the lead, so they naturally did not dare to fall behind and spoke one after another.
"Freight? Okay, that's a good thing. Just bring whatever you want to ship, and we won't charge you a penny more!" Luo Zhang said with a smile.
"Well, Master Luo, the goods of our big families are not comparable to those of small merchants. We often need a ship or even several ships of goods at a time! How can the price be the same as that of those small merchants?" The big families
The family spoke.
"Oh, the price? This is troublesome. I have always been fair. Since the price is like that, why do you have to be special? Then people will say that I don't have a bowl of water that is fair. Then my reputation will be terrible.
It's bad. In the Tang Dynasty, if a person's reputation is bad, no one will believe me anymore, so I'm sorry, everyone!" Luo Zhang said apologetically.
"No, Master Luo, I have something to say!"
"Yes, Master Luo, we have something to discuss!"
"Master Luo, aren't you just afraid that this matter will be spread to the mouths of those small businessmen? We can promise not to tell anyone." The head of the Xiao family said.
"Yes, we promise not to tell anyone!"
"That's right, whoever says go is a fool!"
Luo Zhang was amused by these words, but still did not compromise!
Chapter completed!
