Chapter 163 Harvesting food and grass from local tyrants
() Qin Xiaobai suddenly said with joy: "Does the Chinese have a large amount of grain and grass in the village?"
"That's not true. The foundation of the Chinese ethnic group is in Zuli County, and Zuli County was destroyed by the Baima Qiang people. One hundred thousand county residents became refugees. The foundation of the Chinese ethnic group in Zuli County must have been destroyed."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Hua shook his head and smiled bitterly, and then said to Qin Xiaobai: "However, the Hua clan is one of the most powerful clans in Wuwei County. Even if Zuli's foundation is destroyed this time, the prestige accumulated by the Hua clan for many years has not faded."
"And the Chinese are the powerful ones in Wuwei County who are in charge of the distribution of grain and grass. If the lord can afford the price, I can write a letter and the Chinese can help the lord buy grain and grass from the powerful people of Wuwei County at the lowest price.
"
After listening to Hua Lao's words, Qin Xiaobai understood in his heart that after the Hua clan experienced the Baima Qiang rebellion, although most of the clan members were still there and the residual power was still there, if the Hua clan did not recover quickly, this residual power would not be maintained.
How long.
Hua Lao's strategy is a win-win strategy. It gives Qin Xiaobai a stable and reliable channel to purchase grain, and the Hua family can use this to show to the powerful that they are not short of money and Duyun has not damaged their foundation, so as to continue
Maintain your power and speed up recovery with the help of intermediary fees.
As for Hua Lao's strategy, it must be the best strategy. If the classes in Wuwei County and even the world are divided, they should be divided into five classes. Ordinary people are one class, noble families and powerful families are one class, and military officers are one class.
, players are one class, and the royal family is one class.
Among them, there are almost no nobles and royal families in Xiliang, so there are only four classes left: ordinary people, powerful families, military officers, and players.
The grain and grass in the hands of the people are small individually, but they can add up to a large amount. However, to add up to a large amount, they need to cover a large area for trade. Qin Xiaobai's apparent identity is a bandit, so he cannot do this currently, and it is currently prohibited.
Selling grain and grass can only be done privately. The acquisition area is too large and can easily be caught by the government. This approach is not feasible.
Niu Fubian represents the officer class, and Haoyue Guild represents the player class. These two classes have been improved before, one is painful and the other is unstable. Both of them have a common shortcoming, they are easy to be controlled by others.
Finally, there is the powerful class, the so-called landlords, local tyrants, and big families. Even if they are located on the border of Xiliang, it is impossible for the landlords to have no surplus land.
Qin Xiaobai had no channels before, otherwise he would be the first to find these rich people. Now that Hua Lao comes to his door, of course he cannot refuse to accept it. Moreover, Hua Lao seems to have a high status in the Chinese clan. Hua Lao now
He is his subordinate and has a high degree of loyalty. He must have jeopardized the safety of the Chinese people, and Mr. Hua will not cheat him.
Moreover, this is a win-win strategy for long-term cooperation. Hua Lao will not be stupid enough to drink poison to quench his thirst.
But the problem now is that Qin Xiaobai has no money. Don't look at the inventory of one million copper coins, eight thousand taels of gold, and a large box of jewelry, but the total value is only more than three million.
Among them, 600,000 yuan was used to buy the population, and 1 million yuan was needed as working capital to allow Li Wei to trade with the entire Heifeng Mountain. The military ration transaction with Feng Huifeng required at least 500,000 yuan as capital, which cost Zhang Yi a lot of money.
It would cost at least 500,000 yuan to collect silk scraps, and it would also cost money to eat, drink and sleep after the 20,000 refugees immigrated to Wudu Peak, and all kinds of expenses would also cost money.
If you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, Qin Xiaobai really doesn't have the money now to buy the food and grass from those rich people. Even if the Chinese family still has the power to buy the food and grass from the rich people at the lowest price, Qin Xiaobai can't afford it, so he has to
Tell Mr. Hua about his current embarrassing situation...
When Hua Lao heard this, he smiled and said: "My lord, the winter grain and grass in Heifeng Mountain were robbed, and there is a shortage of grain and grass in the mountain. Although Ma Wan and others did not make the return of grain and grass a necessary condition in the treaty, they must have purchased grain and grass through other channels, but
This channel must be shady. Besides robbing and trading with foreigners, how can the bandits have any other channel?"
"Therefore, ordinary bandits must be ignorant of the fact that Ma Wan and others have other channels to purchase grain and grass. At this time, the lord only needs to spread yesterday's peace treaty. The Three Peaks Alliance will not return the grain and grass, and will definitely increase the price of grain and grass.
Stir it to the sky."
"The Black Wind Bandits are not short of money, only food and grass. At this time, my lord, the Chinese people will buy the food and grass purchased from various powerful hands and sell them to ordinary bandits in Black Wind Mountain at high prices, and even to the heads of various small peaks, so that they can make money from them.
With great profits obtained, the worry of food and grass can be solved."
Qin Xiaobai was overjoyed after hearing this. Hua Lao was worthy of being a talent with high potential in internal affairs. What he said was correct. Ma Wan and others also had Han Sui as a channel, but this channel was not visible, and Han Sui was in Jincheng, thousands of miles away.
, going back and forth for at least ten days. He can make great achievements during this period of time.
However, Qin Xiaobai had a doubt, so he asked: "Why didn't Mr. Hua tell Hua Xiong?"
If Hua Lao informs Hua Xiong of this strategy, then all the benefits will definitely belong to the Chinese people, and the Chinese people will definitely be able to regain their original prosperity in a short time.
"My lord is my lord." Mr. Hua seemed to have been waiting for Qin Xiaobai's words. After hearing this, he immediately bowed and said it to the end.
"Hua Lao is my pillar of strength. As he grows stronger in the future, he will never forget Hua Lao's contribution today, and even the Chinese nation." Qin Xiaobai naturally helped Hua Lao up quickly.
Hua Lao's short sentence contains a lot of information, which means that Hua Xiong knows Qin Xiaobai's information. It is not that Hua Lao is asking Qin Xiaobai, the lord of the Hua clan, to help Qin Xiaobai recruit Hua Xiong.
Qin Xiaobai showed his loyalty and smoothed over the little quarrel between the two.
He also pointed out that Qin Xiaobai is his lord. He is helping Qin Xiaobai today. When Qin Xiaobai comes, he will flourish and become a captain or even higher. Don't forget his contribution today.
However, Qin Xiaobai guessed that after all, Hua Lao was old and had always been indifferent to fame and wealth. He wanted Qin Xiaobai to take care of Hua Xiong, Rui'er and the Hua family.
Qin Xiaobai's reply was much more concise and straightforward, saying that he would never forget his and the Chinese clan's contribution today.
When Mr. Hua heard Qin Xiaobai's promise, his eyes filled with tears and he was so excited that he felt at ease.
"Ding, the system prompts that Hua'an's loyalty has increased by ten points, reaching eighty points."
Qin Xiaobai was very happy that after Hua Lao's loyalty reached 80 points, he would never betray easily. He left the construction of the small village and the grain and grass trade to Hua Lao. He felt more at ease, so he asked Hua Lao to write a letter to the Hua family and the grain and grass trade.
The sooner the better.
If nothing else goes wrong, Wudu Peak can at least make a profit of more than 10,000 dan of grain and grass in this big hype. Wudu Peak will not be in danger of grain and grass for at least half a year, so now is the time to go and see the cattle.
