Lin Ziran has always boasted of his extraordinary concentration.
Lin Ziran could express his indifference to all the conditions offered by various vassals and towns to win over him, regardless of whether it was the territory of three counties or even the county governor.
But the Jian family threw out 5,000 men, equipment and 1 million yuan in military expenses.
Lin Ziran was really tempted.
This is the equipment for five thousand people, including guns, artillery and ammunition.
Not to mention one million Hang Yuan.
When Lin Ziran heard these conditions, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva!
Although he had a lot of money, he also spent a lot. He thought it was trivial to pay tens of thousands of dollars, and he could tolerate a few hundred thousand, but when it reached a million, Lin Ziran couldn't bear it anymore.
But even though he swallowed, Lin Ziran still held it back.
This money is very hot and difficult to handle.
Lin Ziran was silent, and Jian Liangzhi opposite him also picked up a teacup and drank tea.
Although Jian Liangzhi didn't have many contacts with Lin Ziran, he thought he knew a little about Lin Ziran. He knew that this person seemed cautious, but as his father said, his caution was only because the benefits were not large enough.
As long as the profit is large enough, Lin Ziran is very likely to take the risk.
It's not just Lin Ziran, in fact many people will be like this.
There is no one in this world who cannot be bribed. If there is, it is only because the conditions for bribery are not high enough.
With the equipment of five thousand people plus one million constant yuan, not to mention Lin Ziran, even the Jian family before moving into the county town would have to be tempted.
Although the Jian family seemed to be powerful before the army started, they had to pay a heavy price in order to win over many generals and to keep Feng Haozhong and others neutral.
Just the amount of money given away under various names is enough to amount to millions.
And this does not include initial war expenditures.
In order to raise an army to seize the position of county governor, the Jian family spent money like water in the beginning, almost completely wiping out the accumulation of the past ten years. However, they could only raise millions of constant yuan.
After all, the Jian family did not have their own territory before, but only had a greater influence in the military. Although they had an industry, they did not make much money. More importantly, they had to maintain personal connections and influence in the military.
, there are too many places to spend money on weekdays.
It was only after he defeated Cheng Lingfeng and moved into the county seat that the Jian family's financial crisis was relieved.
After directly taking control of the county governor's house, they not only controlled taxation, but also controlled many official industries. The Jian family used various methods to raise a lot of military expenses in the past period of time.
Just by copying one item, the Jian family gained millions in financial income.
So the Jian family is not short of money now.
Otherwise, Jianming Gang would not have just used millions of dollars and many weapons to hit Lin Ziran.
Although the equipment of one million Heng Yuan and 5,000 people is still a big number for the current Jian family, they can still take it out, and as long as it is worth the money, they will not feel heartache.
But such a huge amount of money is an extremely huge amount for a newly emerging local vassal town like Lin Ziran.
Jian Liangzhi knew very well that even if Lin Ziran ignored people's livelihood and ransacked Lianguan County, he couldn't expect to get millions of dollars in a short time. Even if he was given a year, he might not be able to get so much money.
Soldiers nourish the army.
Even if Qingshan Oil Company under Lin Ziran makes money, it will probably take several years to earn more than one million!
In this case, he is not afraid that Lin Ziran will not be tempted!
Both sides fell into a brief silence.
After more than ten seconds, Lin Ziran spoke again: "Brother Jian, you are really generous!"
Jian Liangzhi smiled and said: "Although this money is a lot, if it can allow Brother Lin to fight side by side with us, it is not worth mentioning!"
This is true, spending more than one million yuan to get reinforcements of thousands of people, this business is not a loss.
Lin Ziran shook his head and said: "If you say you don't want to take the money, you must be lying, but Brother Jian, you also know that I only have so many people under my command, and they are newly organized troops. If I really want to pull them out, I'm worried
There’s no going back!”
Jian Liangzhi said: "Brother Lin is overly worried. There are only five or six people in your department. Once such a huge force goes south, who dares to underestimate it?"
Jian Liangzhi naturally knew that most of Lin Ziran's troops were new recruits.
It only took a few months for Lin Ziran to rise to prominence. It didn't even take a year. It only took a few months for Lin Ziran to rise rapidly and expand his army. It takes only a few months to build a strong army. This is not true.
Possible things.
However, the Jian family doesn't care if the people under his command are new soldiers!
As long as Lin Ziran agrees to join the Jian family's camp, thousands more people will come in an instant. Even if these thousands of people are weak in combat effectiveness, as long as they are pulled out, even if the enemy despises them, they will still have thousands of troops.
.
This is enough to contain thousands of enemy troops for the Jian family.
that's enough.
Lin Ziran heard Jian Liangzhi's words, but still shook his head: "Now that Lianguan County is unstable, the Guang'an people in the north can threaten the Nanguang defense line at any time, and Pingdan County in the west has fallen into the hands of Guang'an. If I lead the army south,
, this Lianguan County will fall into the hands of Guang'an!"
"I'm afraid there's no other way to go south!"
Although the money was very tempting, Lin Ziran still chose to refuse.
What Lin Ziran and the others need most now is time!
Time to train your troops!
Showing weakness to all parties, or even hinting at surrender, is to dispel the wariness of various vassals and towns against themselves, so as to obtain a relatively relaxed development environment.
Once he leads the army south now, the new recruits under his command will probably collapse even on the march south, let alone a large-scale war.
It is not in one's own interests to change plans and join the war early.
Seeing Lin Ziran like this, Jian Liangzhi frowned slightly.
But he did not continue to persuade.
He knew very well that it would be difficult to be convinced by someone like Lin Ziran or his own father.
When his father wanted to start an army, many people tried to dissuade him, but his father still insisted on going ahead.
After all, this Lin Ziran is still a similar person to his father.
They must have made a decision, and unless there is a major change, don't expect them to change their minds.
Jian Liangzhi said: "Brother Lin is worried, I can understand it, but the previous one is still valid!"
Lin Ziran said: "Neutral?"
Jian Liangzhi said: "Yes, as long as Brother Lin remains neutral and does not participate in it, I will give you these 100,000 Hengyuan immediately!"
Lin Ziran smiled: "I agree to this!"
As long as he is not allowed to send troops south or fight with others, everything else will be easy to deal with, let alone getting money.
The most important thing is that this is also consistent with his predetermined plan.
He originally intended to be neutral.
After Jian Liangzhi left 100,000 yuan and left, Lin Ziran wondered if he could also ask Feng Haozhong and Li Kun to get some neutrality fees?
