Steel Dynasty - Chapter 938

[Chapter 933 Submission]

“Mercenary company, what is this?”

In the early morning, a prominent headline in Qingzhou Daily attracted the attention of businessmen.

Since the surrender of Japan and the influx of industrial products from the Chongqing Kingdom into Japan, they have not been so excited for a while.

“Mercenaries, soldiers who fight for money, trained mercenaries will be able to be hired by anyone, and even participate in wars for huge rewards. From today on, businessmen will be able to hire these special soldiers to protect their overseas trade , or even hire them to participate in wars for commercial interests. The only taboo is that mercenaries and their employers cannot harm the interests of the Chongqing Kingdom, otherwise they will be regarded as traitors…”

In a shop located on the commercial street, Dai Zixing said Supervise his subordinates to clean the bicycles they bought yesterday, while reading the newspaper that was just delivered.

With the popularity of newspapers, newspapers in Qingzhou now have newspaper subscription services. As long as you pay twenty silver dragons a month, you can read a month’s worth of newspapers.

This small amount of money is naturally nothing to a big businessman like Dai Zixing. For him, it is really a good deal to learn about important events in the Great Yu Kingdom for only twenty silver dragons.

“What a pity. It’s probably not our turn to intervene in this mercenary company.” After reading the newspaper, Dai Zixing picked up a cup of tea and drank it.

Next to him is his nephew Dai Hui. Since he became successful in Qingzhou, his old family members have gone to Qingzhou to join him. This has made him quickly become the person with the greatest say in the family from an inconspicuous figure in the family.

“Why? Nowadays, besides the Ding family, the richest people in Qingzhou City are our Dai family, right? As for Zhu Wuliu, he’s still not that good.” Dai Hui looked like he was scorning the world.

“Hui’er, don’t say this nonsense, otherwise outsiders will laugh out loud. Both the Ding family and the Dai family are just minor players in Qingzhou. The really rich ones are the royal relatives who do business with the Chamber of Commerce. Since the incident with the Cao family, the emperor has obviously relaxed the control on the royal family, and seems to have the intention of balancing the power of private businessmen, so it is impossible for this mercenary company to turn to us, it will only be a relative of the emperor. “Dai Zixing took everything. See clearly.

Dai Hui sighed deeply and said angrily: “If the Merchant Council wins, will our country of Chongqing look different?” As

soon as he finished speaking, Dai Zixing immediately looked nervous and looked around. After finding no one nearby, he said angrily: “Hui’er, if you are still so arrogant, go back to Chang’an next time. Is that what you should say? Now that the country of Chongqing is prospering, it is not the turn of this kind of thing.” Heresy is rampant, and today my uncle will tell you that if the merchant council wins, the country of Chongqing will be in ruins. “

Dai Hui was sweating on his forehead. He was also talking out loud for a moment. When he came to his senses, his back was soaked with cold sweat.

“Uncle, it’s the child’s fault. Uncle, please don’t drive me back to Chang’an. I won’t dare to do it next time.” Dai Hui said hurriedly.

Dai Zixing calmed down a little and recalled that he left his hometown and came to Qingzhou to make a living. At that time, he was running for the wise Shenwu who was the current emperor.

In fact, it was his choice at the time that led to his current position in Qingzhou. He earned his first batch of money from casting cement pipes, and then received generous reports from supporting the Northern Expedition. From then on, he had the capital to build everywhere. The factory does business.

It can be said that his glory was based on the prosperity of Qingzhou.

“Businessmen pursue profit, but business is also ethical. Business has no national boundaries, but businessmen have their own monarchs. Without the strength of the country, no matter how much money we make, it will eventually fall into the pockets of others. Do you understand? “Dai Zixing lectured.

“Yes, uncle, my nephew has remembered it.” Dai Hui said respectfully.

While the two were talking, a voice suddenly came, “What Brother Dai said is absolutely true. The Emperor has his own considerations about this mercenary company. If he doesn’t leave it to you and me, businessmen, it is natural that this business is for the long-term stability of the Chongqing Kingdom.” Some things can be done and some things cannot be done. This is the way to do business.”

Hearing this voice, Dai Zixing breathed a sigh of relief and said, “Ding Wu, you have been eavesdropping.

” It’s Ding Wu. He said doubtfully: “I just passed by, and I was just impressed by Brother Dai’s eloquent remarks.”

Dai Zixing smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter if you listen. The emperor has always understood me, Dai, as a person. He won’t Indiscriminate.”

Ding Wu shook his head. He really didn’t hear Dai Hui’s rebellious words. He said, “I’m too lazy to listen to what you said. This time I came here for Japanese business.”

Dai Zixing .

His eyes lit up, and he said, “Maybe your business has also suffered a setback.”

“Yes, although Yamada Nobunaga has surrendered now, the territory of Japan is not peaceful now. The riots have not subsided, and only a few ports are safe. , so the mercenary company came out at the right time. I want to hire a team of mercenaries with Brother Dai to protect our caravan in Japan. “

” This is okay.” Dai Zixing nodded slightly, as the saying goes. The profits are the same. Now if you want to seize the Japanese market, you must use some extraordinary means.

…

When Qingzhou was causing trouble due to mercenaries, Zhu Sansi was not idle. In the vast snowfield, he and two Daur people arrived at a tribe in the mountains and forests after a day’s trek.

This tribe has a population of only a few thousand, and they live in tents made of animal skins. All men, women and children wear fur clothes and have dark and thin complexions.

When they arrived, Zhu Sansi had already learned that the middle-aged Daur man was called Guda, and the tribe he led them to this time was officially the tribe where the Daur headman belonged.

“General, come out.”

After arriving at the outskirts of the tribe, the Daur soldiers in the tribe blocked them from the tribe with bows, arrows and long hair. They had been waiting for communication between Guda and the headman.

If all goes well, the Daur people will return to Dayu and become border residents of Dayu, and they will also get a supply line.

“Mr. Zhu, this is our Phuket leader. He said that we will only believe you as long as you make a blood alliance with us.” Guda said seriously.

Gao Yingfeng curled his lips. He was about to express his disdain for this tribe when Zhu Sansi stopped him.

Although the Daur people are small in number, they are very familiar with this place and they need someone to provide stable help here.

So, he said: “Of course, you can use the enemy’s blood donation as a witness.”

After that, he asked someone to bring Vasily over.

Seeing Vasily, the leader of Daur showed a satisfied look. He drew out his short knife and suddenly slashed Vasily’s arm.

Then he asked the tribesmen to fetch two bowls of wine and drop Vasily’s blood into the wine.

Zhu Sansi took another bowl and the two of them drank the wine at the same time.
