"I said it, but it doesn't mean I want to buy it for you at this price." Chen Xi was completely cheating. The price on the book was too low even for Chen Xi. It was too low.
"Is this the cost?" Yuan Shu asked after a while. It was probably the first time he had seen Chen Xi's attitude. As for the price, Yuan Shu knew it, and the price was indeed lower than imagined.
"Well, this is a cost-effective cost. It is impossible to ship the goods to you at this price." Chen Xi said with a dark face. It would be great if it could be explained as cost. At least if it is explained as cost, it will qualify for a percentage increase.
.
"Okay, I won't make it difficult for you. According to the price above, plus 10%, I will take the supplies." Yuan Shu was also rational. He did not argue with Chen Xijian and let others make nothing. Yuan Shu couldn't say it, let alone
What's more, even if the price is increased by 10%, Yuan Shu will not lose money.
Yuan Shu is second-rate, but Yuan Shu is not mentally retarded. He also knows certain facts very well in his mind. If he can get good goods cheaper and in a timely manner than elsewhere, that is a good thing.
As for the money the other party made in this process, that was the other party's ability, and the price of the roster he got now was a true reflection of Chen Xi's strength.
"..." Chen Xi originally thought that Yuan Shu would most likely act recklessly at his place today, or even roll around on the ground. For this reason, Chen Xi also thought about how to deal with Yuan Shu's next reaction, but he didn't expect Yuan Shu to be so rational.
They all found it a bit incredible.
"Well, since I've seen it, I won't say it anymore. It's 10%, 10%. To be honest, Yuan Gongli, it seems that we are all confused by your second-rate appearance. We have forgotten that you have another one.
Identity." Chen Xi said slowly after a while.
Yuan Shu laughed loudly when he heard the words, while Chen Xi squinted his eyes. After all, Yuan Shu was once a prince. Although he was a prince who accepted the Yuan family's territory and achievements, it was indeed prosperous when he was in his hands.
To that extent, Yuan Shu should not be a simple second-hand person.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this. It's pointless. Help me give Yuan Xiansi a message." Chen Xi saw Yuan Shu's expression and knew what he was saying. The other party may not admit it, so he changed the topic. In the future, he only needs to remember
, Yuan Shu is paranoid, but Yuan Shu is either mentally retarded.
"What are you talking about?" Yuan Shu looked at Chen Xi who looked calm and said. The other party asked him to say something so solemnly. It must not be a simple matter. It should be said that it will definitely affect the fate of the Yuan family in the future. Well, that's it. What the other party said
, will affect the fate of the Yuan family.
"The place where they built the city is over the mountains to the west. That place is a good place, but please remember that no matter how good the place is, you need strength to hold it. If you can't hold it, then everything is nonsense." Chen Xi felt that it was still a lie.
It is necessary to remind Xun Chen and others.
Chen Xi estimated that if nothing unexpected happened, Xun Chen, Xu You and others should have discovered the huge potential of the Eastern European plains by now. Even if it has not yet been developed, they may have some guesses, and may even have entered the stage of measurement, but some
Things still need to be informed.
Chen Xi had some ideas when he asked the Yuan family to travel west from Northern Xinjiang. Xun Chen's wisdom, his determination in judging matches, and Xu You's resourcefulness. When these three are combined, they will inevitably find a suitable place.
Stay here instead of going to Congling to meet Zhuge Liang.
Of course, they will still meet, but their roots will definitely not stay in Congling. Their choice will be more difficult, but broader. Chen Xi can guarantee this, and there are not many places suitable for the Yuan family all the way west, and Chen Xi's impression
The most profound place is later Yekaterinburg, one of the industrial bases of the former Soviet Union.
As places that can become industrial bases in later generations, it can be said that they are the best areas in the agricultural era. There must be sufficient water flow, and thus there will be fertile soil of sufficient scale. Similarly, there will also be a large amount of minerals. Such places were generally used in ancient times.
It is called the Land of Longxing.
In particular, the minerals in that place are basically open-air, and the quality is very good. Coupled with the quite good land resources, Chen Xi estimates that if the Yuan family discovers it, there is a great possibility that they will build a city there as their own.
foundation.
After all, even Chen Xi has to admit that the place is actually very good. It is better than the Congling base he chose in terms of resources, land, etc. Of course, the advantage of the Congling base is that it is a transportation artery and is adjacent to Anxi in the west.
, facing Guishang in the south, it is considered a strategic location.
Occupying that place would be of considerable benefit to the Han Dynasty in their attack. However, although the current location of Sizhao City occupies a large amount of resources, it is essentially not conducive to the development and communication of the Han Dynasty. It is a place suitable for cultivation and rest.
By the way, Li Tiao and Xue Shao led Baima Yicong before, which can be regarded as completely determining the location of Sizhao City for Chen Xi. Indeed, as Chen Xi estimated, the Yuan family's Sizhao City was successfully built on the location of Yekaterinburg in later generations.
.
Of course, Chen Xi didn't need to think about what happened next, he could basically determine it.
It was nothing more than crossing the Ural Mountains to determine what the situation was like in Eastern Europe, and then successfully identifying the vast granary. Then secretly began to gather people and strength, waiting for its rise. To be honest,
Chen Xi was very happy to see this idea from the Yuan family.
Ambition and other things, for Chen Xi, who takes the world as his goal and manages Chinese civilization, the bigger the better. For a family like the Yuan family who wants to engulf the Eastern European plains and lay the foundation of their own empire, Chen Xi is eager to come to the
indivual.
The question is, the Eastern European Plain is a pit, and it is a pit that Chen Xi needs to remind the Yuan family. Otherwise, if they really open up the place, the Yuan family not only fails to defend it, but also allows Rome to occupy it, and the Yuan family has no way to solve it, then
It's really a sinkhole.
Compared with Chang'an in the Central Plains, the distance from Eastern Europe and the distance from Rome to Eastern Europe basically determine the scale of troop deployment of the two empires, so Chen Xi had to give some tips to the Yuan family to avoid leaving any trouble.
"What does this mean?" Yuan Shu looked at Chen Xi and frowned. He could hear the kindness in Chen Xi's words, but he didn't understand what Chen Xi meant at all.
"I don't mind that your Yuan family is big-hearted, and I don't mind that your Yuan family wants to make a big news, but what should I say? Considering that we all have the same culture and race, and are the same ancestors, let's put it this way, Sizhao City will go west
It will be very dangerous after passing there, because we are getting closer and closer to Rome." Chen Xi looked at Yuan Shu gently and said.
"Rome?" Yuan Shu showed a rare solemn look, and then smiled, "The Yuan family is not mine now, and young people can solve their own problems. What's more, compared to me, maybe the obvious
Si is better at this."
"Please help me close the door to the study. There are some things I can only say to people like you." Chen Xi sighed and said to Yuan Shu. He could not imitate Yuan Shu's free and easy attitude.
Yuan Shu glanced at Chen Xi unhappily when he heard this, but ran over to close the study door, then came back to his position, and then looked at Chen Xi, "If you have anything to say, just say it, I want to hear it too,
What on earth would the so-called No. 1 civil servant in the world say?"
"Actually, I'm quite conflicted. On the one hand, I hope that you will grow beyond imagination, but on the other hand, I feel that if you grow so much, you will inevitably become a replica of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period." Chen Xi sighed and said, "Do you think that I will start a new era?"
After this era, the final result has been determined, and even the future results have been determined."
"Isn't that inevitable?" Yuan Shu folded his arms and said with a sneer, "It goes around and over and over again! This is the general trend of the world."
"Well, the wheel of history keeps spinning, but it keeps moving forward." Chen Xi said distressedly, "I have been working hard to maintain the balance of the entire social class, to share the interests as much as possible, and to make this kind of
Stability can last longer, but how can I put it, now, I feel that even though I have done so much, the result has not changed."
Yuan Shu curled his lips in disdain when he heard this, but before he could speak, Chen Xi continued to talk to himself. It was obvious that Chen Xi really needed an audience. Li You, Jia Xu, etc. are really very understanding of people's hearts. Chen Xi said this
Once, they were able to react so much that Chen Xi couldn't continue talking.
"I sometimes think about what I need. After thinking about it for a long time, I find that apart from what I have now and the ideals I pursue, I actually don't need anything else. It's equivalent to saying that I am pure now.
It is the pursuit of ideals. This state should not be the state of human beings." Chen Xi said with a little helplessness.
"Originally, I thought that by relying on my own efforts, I could unify the Central Plains as much as possible without sacrificing its potential, and lead the Central Plains on a new path. I would be very excited when I achieved it, but how can I put it..."
Chen Xi reached out and picked up a book from the side, "Yuan Gongli, there is only one month left for the world to be completely unified, but I am not excited at all."
"..." Yuan Shu frowned after hearing this.
"Obviously everything I once hoped for is being achieved, but I don't have much sense of accomplishment. On the contrary, because you and other aristocratic families are about to go abroad according to the plan, I have doubts about the future." There was an indescribable expression on Chen Xi's face.
Lost.
"Obviously, I have actually strengthened this country. To put it bluntly, I have done better than those who came before me. This era is indeed a good era for the people, at least compared to the past, but I don't know why.
After the troops were mobilized to Nanyang and the order for the transportation of the required supplies was issued, all I felt was confusion." Chen Xi looked at Yuan Shu and said.
