The meal lasted for less than twenty minutes before Otomo Ryoji left in a hurry.
He didn't say anything to Gao Shaoyi, he just took away the banknote Gao Shaoyi put on the table.
After all, I still can't stand the temptation of this banknote.
Money can make a fool of himself, but what about the little prince of Dongdi Kingdom? In the eyes of Otomo Ryoji, that guy's life is only worth 800,000 silver coins.
Gao Shaoyi remembered hearing a saying before.
Second-class people have to do everything by themselves, and even if they are exhausted in the end, they won't be able to accomplish much.
The first-class people only need to select the corresponding people and let them work on this matter, and then they can have a good rest. For example, at this moment, a troublesome matter is left to Otomo Ryoji.
Of course, Gao Shaoyi may not necessarily put all the burden on him. He also has to train an assassination team. If this guy fails, Gao Shaoyi will not be able to let his woman marry him even if he risks the world's disapproval.
Dongdi Kingdom.
Although the two of them just slept together at night and did not engage in any other substantive behavior, Gao Shaoyi was very chauvinistic and had long regarded Princess Wen Ning as his own.
After hurriedly marching all the way to the military camp, several regiments of the suppression army had been formed.
Nearly 40,000 troops began training in three training camps.
The ammunition consumed every day is an astronomical figure. Fortunately, Gao Shaoyi asked people to build several large warehouses. The warehouses were filled every day when he left. Except for his own guard squad and absolute confidants, no one else could.
Anyone who violates this rule will be shot without mercy.
Kill kill kill!
The playground was filled with cries of death. A week ago, these people were farmers and craftsmen in the surrounding area, but now they have become soldiers of the anti-insurgent army.
The daily staple food is white flour steamed buns and rice, accompanied by pork stewed with vermicelli, and each person has a can of beef every day.
Even in their wildest dreams, they had never thought of such a meal, so they all worked hard during training and must not let the good food from the Marquis go to waste.
"Master Marquis, two days ago you said you would bring out weapons. I have made an appointment with everyone. Do you want to go take a look?"
Liu Shan walked in from outside and happened to see Gao Shaoyi.
The two of them agreed that day to sell some of the older rifles.
Of course, that is also relative to the weapons of the Suppression Army. The rifles used by the imperial guards of the Daqian Empire today have almost the same functions as those used by the Suppression Army except that they do not have bullet buckets.
.
Of course, they are also standard weapons of Western countries, but they have not yet become popular in the Daqian Empire.
Many armies used matchlocks, and some even used broadswords and spears.
Although the Daqian Empire has more than two million troops, if we talk about the new army, they are only those under Li Hongtang.
"I won't go. Just tell me how the discussion went."
Gao Shaoyi was too lazy to deal with the dealings with arms dealers and left it all to Liu Shan. This was mainly because he was too discerning now to have the time to do business with these arms dealers.
"This kind of rifle without a bucket is imported from abroad for 140 imperial coins and equipped with 300 rounds of ammunition, but it has basically been used. What we sell is brand new and the price is also 100.
Forty imperial coins, if it continues to rise, I’m afraid the sales volume will be small.”
Liu Shan took out another rifle.
“How many people have thought about buying?”
If the quantity is too small, Gao Shaoyi is really unwilling to do this business, but Gao Shaoyi understands another truth, that is, there is strength in numbers.
If the Daqian Empire relied on itself, even if it tried its best, it might not be able to get it back on the right path. But if so many brothers worked together, it might be different.
"A total of four warlords are ready to buy, including the imperial court, and the number purchased is 36,000."
After listening to Liu Shan's answer, Gao Shaoyi made some calculations in his mind. If all transactions were completed, this would be more than five million imperial silver coins.
According to the monthly expenditure of 500,000 imperial silver coins, it can support the suppressing army for more than ten months.
You only need to pay more than 500,000 merit points.
"This is not bad. Just trade with them quickly, but it must be cash. No one can lend it on credit. No matter what kind of background they have, we are the only ones here."
Gao Shaoyi is very clear about these gentlemen in the Daqian Empire. If you dare to give credit to one of them, then no one else will be willing to pay. In the end, he will only have a pile of white notes in his hand. .
"Don't worry, Mr. Hou, I, Old Liu, also know what kind of things they are. I won't give them a word less. These guys want to eat free at our place. They are really wishful thinking."
Liu Shan said with a smile.
"Wait a moment, and a team of people will be sent out later. Each house in the capital will send a box."
There is no way to advertise in this era, but the dignitaries in the capital are the stars of this era. With a box of ten rifles, the entire capital can only hold five or six hundred rifles.
People are all prone to comparison. If Mr. Zhang's family has a new rifle but Mr. Wang's family does not, then where should Mr. Wang's face be placed? They will have to try their best to find someone to buy it.
And many people are military generals. As long as they see the benefits of this rifle, they will definitely find a way to buy it. Then we will be able to make more money. This is regarded as the advertising fee we pay.
"Master Marquis, you are really smart. You must have understood the human nature of these people in the capital. No matter what, you have to have thirty or forty nursing homes. If some of them have new guns, the rest will Those people will also find a way to do it."
Liu Shan admired him to death. No matter what he did, Gao Shaoyi was one step ahead of them.
"Each gun has a specific number. Let me write it down. If something happens in the future, we can investigate it."
Gao Shaoyi suddenly thought of another thing. Who knows what the capital will be like in the future, but it will be beneficial to write it down early.
"Over there in the imperial city?"
Liu Shan thought about the biggest boss in the capital. You have already given gifts to the noble officials below. Why don’t you give them to the imperial city?
"I sent 300 of them, just to say that our army to suppress the captives is limited in strength, and the money was squeezed out of our mouths..."??
