"Brother Mu, these Tubo people brought a lot of money."
I heard a shout from a Qianjun soldier, and then walked over with a bag in his hand.
When I opened it, I saw that it was filled with gold ingots. A rough estimate would be around forty or fifty taels at least.
As for the purpose, there is no need to guess too much. I am afraid that over the years, the Black Dragon Gang has sold all these people to the Tubo people who paid higher prices.
"The damn Black Dragon Gang dares to collude with foreign tribes. This is a serious crime against the nine tribes. When you go back, you will have to report it to the Holy One!"
Hearing this, Chen Mu sighed softly: "This matter is not related to the Black Dragon Gang. These people can bypass this place so easily, and their trading time seems to last for a long time. Think about Yizhou Mu Neng
Don’t you know?”
Puyang was a little unbelievable: "You mean, Yizhou Mu probably took advantage of the Tubo Kingdom and deliberately allowed them to buy and sell the people here?"
Chen Mu nodded. Without Yizhou Mu to clear the way, how could these 100 cavalry have arrived here late at night?
What is state pastoralism? The people of a state are pastoralists.
"I advise you to write a letter and send it to His Royal Highness, and let him make a decision."
Although he has never been in the officialdom, Chen Mu has always believed that it is still just a circle of interpersonal communication. The Zhou Mu has the military and political power of a state. Now the Yizhou Mu has colluded with Tubo. If he is forced into a crisis, it will be unreasonable.
He threw himself directly into the arms of the Tubo people.
Once Sichuan and Shu fall, the entire Central Plains will be completely exposed.
After listening to Chen Mu's words, Puyang suddenly realized the serious relationship between them.
"knew."
By the time all this was done, it was almost early morning.
Chen Mu led everyone away, and it was a good deal this time. He rescued more than two hundred people, captured more than fifty taels of gold, and had a hundred good war horses.
Gaining so much without any casualties is the most important thing.
The evil forces on the Shu Army's side have been completely wiped out, and now I don't know what is happening with the other two waves of people.
Bajun City Restaurant.
"Damn it! I really want to peel off this Chen Mu's skin. He has wiped out all three of our territories!"
"If you do this, I'm afraid you won't be able to support the gang with just the monthly offerings. You always have many methods, and you are highly valued by the King of Jin. What should we do next?"
At this time, the leader of the Black Dragon Gang also had a gloomy look on his face. You must know that what he did was much more profitable than the other two gangs.
"This person intends to annex you and my three gangs."
"Then...what should we do? Otherwise, we will do it three times without stopping!"
The leader of the Black Dragon Gang waved his hand: "After all, we are from the royal family. Others have returned from Shu County. At least... it is not the time now, but there is no need to worry. Now that boy is in the moment of arrogance. Let's just wait and he will eventually fall."
There are flaws.”
After drinking the last sip of tea, the leader of the Black Dragon Gang smiled slightly at everyone, then turned and left the restaurant.
As for Chen Mu, he arrived at Yelang early this morning.
As the number of people increased, Chen Mu had to use a lot of manpower to build more houses. The back mountain was already an old forest, and the building complex could be expanded directly inward.
The number of people in the village instantly expanded to more than 400, which is already equivalent to a medium-sized town.
But when Han Xiner and Zhang Bowen brought back two more waves of people, the number instantly reached more than a thousand.
So many people are enough to support the needs of employees in textile factories and printing factories.
That night, Chen Mu carried the fifty taels of gold he had seized and followed an iron chain zipline down to the bottom of a hundred-foot cliff.
There is a huge cave at the bottom of the cliff, which is quite large. This was also dug out by General Roaring Chen Mu. It is its lair and the place where Chen Mu hides his money.
The national situation is unstable and there is no telling when war will happen again. Cash is the hard currency.
It was pitch dark in the cave, but no one knew how many gold and silver ingots were thrown into it. When this bag was thrown in, there was only a sound of metal sliding down and clattering.
In the next period of time, Chen Mu planned to stay in the village for a while. After all, these were strangers who did not know the details. He had to be on guard and waited until everything was on track before heading to Bajun to make detailed plans.
Ichiban, how to expand the entire business system to the entire Longxia territory next.
On weekdays, when he has nothing to do, Chen Mu likes to go to the mountains with Zhang Bowen to watch Puyang train at Qianjun Camp.
The training method is really inhumane. Just climbing the cliff with bare hands in the early morning would make people look at it and stop them.
As for Chen Mu, he would learn some life-saving martial arts skills from Zhang Bowen no matter what.
For example, he has a green snake in one hand and one sleeve. He has such a hidden trick that is always useful at critical moments.
"Brother Chen, although it is a just act to eliminate these evils this time, I still have to tell you, be careful of the revenge of those three gangs."
Chen Mu shined a light on a tree and then flew out an arrow: "The soldiers are coming to stop us. Sooner or later we will start a war with these three gangs. But what I care about right now is whether we go to Jingzhou or Chang'an first this time."
Zhang Bowen said slowly: "Although Jingzhou is close, if Brother Chen can create a certain reputation in places like Chang'an, then he can easily win places like Jingzhou and Yangzhou."
Chen Mu nodded: "It makes sense, then, you can go with me this time."
"Well, that place in Chang'an is a place where poor people are destined to die. Not only will they not be able to help Brother Chen, but they will also be harmed."
"Who said that?"
Zhang Bowen paused and said, "When I was twelve years old, I had a divination."
"Damn it, the hexagram says that your boy can become the chief minister of the dynasty. It's not accurate at all. Come with me, I'll feel at ease."
Hearing Chen Mu's teasing, Zhang Bowen couldn't help but wonder if his divination skills were really used to defraud others of their incense money.
"Then...okay."
When he returned to Bajun, Chen Mu began to prepare.
Now that he is the King of Shuchuan, even though he has an empty title, he is still nominally equal to the emperor's brothers and sisters. Even if he meets the prince now, he no longer needs to kneel down and worship.
When heading to Chang'an, the imperial capital, you need to prepare various gifts and pay your respects one by one.
Gold, silver and pearls were probably no longer new in the palace. After thinking about it, Chen Mu started brewing wine on his own again.
It can be seen that what Chen Mu brews now is definitely the best in the entire dynasty. Even if it is paid as tribute to the current emperor, it is not shabby.
In addition, there are also various carefully crafted paintings and poems. This effort took Chen Mu half a month.
The wine and poetry were, firstly, used to win over the royal family, and secondly, they had to be sold. Chen Mu had a feeling that this trip to Chang'an would definitely increase his wealth several times.
