    "Haha, I need 500,000 taels of silver a week, and I'm just out to deceive people. The price is really not low, but I can still afford it. I can see that the people here are all  He Nu has worked hard, and there is no problem with the money or anything else. The most important thing is to put it into use as soon as possible. Now that this thing is made, what do you think I will use it for?" Li Cong looked at Bai Er and said, this  At that time, the two people had already walked out of the place where they had been. When the few Bai Er's followers heard what Li Cong said, they all hurried out one by one. Although they were all people who had taken the genetic medicine, they  Sometimes it is better not to know something. The best way to keep a secret is to know as few people as possible. They are all people working below. Without them, there will be nothing wrong. So  They all understood what their situation was, and it was better not to hear such words. It was a conversation between high-level people, and people below them had better not listen to it. Bai Er was also puzzled when he heard Li Cong's words,  Aren't these things meant to create magicians? The idea of ??creating magicians is naturally an invasion of the Magician's Guild. It can be said that so far, the only mysterious place on the entire continent is the people of the Magician's Guild.  , if they were not well-organized and if magicians were too rare, people from the Cao Family Trading Company might have been able to sneak in. Now those who sneak in are doing things for servants, but there is no news at all.  .

    "Boss, I don't quite understand what you mean. Didn't you tell me before that our development in all aspects has encountered a bottleneck? We have no way to expand. The only way now is to deal with magicians  The people from the union have taken action, but there is an iron rule in the magicians' union, that is, if you are not a magician, no matter how smart or important you are, you are still a peripheral member, and you will never be able to enter their core area. Is it possible now?  Did it change to another purpose?" Bai Er's mind was also spinning very quickly, but he still felt that the gap between himself and Li Cong was too big. He didn't know what Li Cong was thinking.  .  Just like the base in front of me, when I first listened to Li Cong's idea, my first thought was that the boss's mind seemed to be abnormal. He actually thought about creating a magician. Is this possible?  Does it come out in batches?  If this is the case, how can the magician unions of the four empires be on an equal footing with the royal families of the four empires? Look at the magicians outside.  Who doesn't point his nostrils towards the person in front of him? For them, he is an absolute noble when he is born. Even those in the royal family are not in their eyes. Why?  There is only one reason, because he is a magician.  There are few magicians in the world. Just one reason is enough. As for other things, there is no need to say them at all. This is where the domineering power of magicians lies and the source of their confidence.

    "Haha. In fact, you should be able to guess it, but if you haven't guessed it, it's okay for me to tell you. As of now, our Cao Family Trading Company has reached a bottleneck just like you said.  , many times the expansion we want to continue is either inappropriate here or not right there, and I also feel that the people below are also a little confused. They have all worked hard for the future of the Cao Family Trading Company, but now they have  They have reached their goal, and even exceeded it a lot, so many people don't know what to do. What I have to do now is to give them a direction. Although the main power of our Cao Family Trading Company has also extended to the county seat.  Wait for some places, but generally speaking, some of the forces in this county are very large, and they are all local and powerful. Looking at them individually, they are not very good, but if they all  If they unite, even some large forces in the province are probably not their opponents. After all, they are all local snakes. But if we can organize it and unite these scattered things, I believe it will be a win-win situation for all.  The Great Empire is also a big impact, but you can't just talk to people about it. You can only talk about it after people on both sides have a relationship. It's not that easy for ordinary people to have a relationship with them.  It's easy, but if a magician appears at your door, it's completely different. Who doesn't want to have something to do with a magician? Even if you see a magician once, it's something you can praise, let alone  People are coming to your home to make friends with you, which makes you so happy that you can't find yourself anywhere." Li Cong expressed his inner thoughts.

    Bai Er on the side digested this thing as quickly as possible. It took about five minutes. If Wu Zuoxi came, this time might be shortened a lot, but Li Congfeng couldn't  Putting all the apples in one basket, Wu Zuoxi has now entered the core level, even better than people like Bai Er.It's better. Many large-scale decisions are made by him, so Li is never ready to leave this matter to Wu Zuoxi. Although there is no sign of going against him from now on, this situation in society  It's hard to tell. If you give everything to him, the power this guy can control will be great. People have their own desire for power. If this really grows, if  If it is not pruned properly, a certain tragedy will definitely happen. What Li Cong has to do now is not to give Wu Zuoxi that chance and not allow such a person to rebel against him. Of course, Li Cong also hopes that Wu Zuoxi will not have this idea in his life.  Yes, otherwise you can¡¯t blame yourself.

    Bai Er quickly understood what was going on. It turned out that Li Cong wanted to use these fake magicians to become a stepping stone for major families and tie them all to the chariot of the Cao family business. In this way, the Cao family  The people in the commercial bank will lose part of their profits, but they can also quickly separate their own people. Now they are in great need of people. If they can hand over some less important transactions to these people.  If there is another magician as guarantee, there will definitely be no problem.  It's just that when Bai Er looked at Li Cong, he felt that he had seen him somewhere before, like a wild beast.

    "Boss, only you can think of this plan. If this thing can really be accomplished, our power will be more rapid and deep in the major empires. By then, in addition to some of our superficial powers,  Some secret forces will also develop, and sometimes these forces can help us a lot. For example, a capable person in a county is nothing, but if they all gather together, they will probably be the county magistrate.  We won't offend them easily. What do you mean is that we want to develop some unofficial forces? Use magicians as a cover to connect people and create an underground network that can compete with the government?" Bai Er was thinking at this moment.  Li Cong's plan was told in full, and these things were compiled bit by bit.  It can be said that if all Li Cong's lies are fulfilled, it will definitely bring the Cao Family Trading Company to a higher level. Sometimes it is these forces that don't look very good, but if they are all connected,  , this is a huge cake, and now Li Cong has set his sights on this huge cake.  But before that, we still need to control the costs. Looking at the account books in Baishuili, Li Cong also felt that the cost of this base was a bit high. Although the future future is very bright, if he can control it a little bit,  if.  Still relatively good.

    "Basically, the entire plan is what you said, but there are some areas that need to be treated differently. It must comply with some local laws. If it cannot comply with some local trends, our plan may fail.  Yes, sometimes these things are very important. By the way, tell me about the situation here. If it is mass production, how long will it take to provide me with the first batch of magicians? What I want is just now  That kind of thing, I can't tell that it's a man-made magician, and I'm sure the people in the Magician's Guild won't be able to tell that either. How much money has been spent on this one since it came in? I have to have a certain understanding in my heart.  Numbers, you have to know that we will definitely train a large number of magicians in the future, and we must conceal the identity of a magician for them. Now it can be said that not a single magician appears in the entire empire in a year. It is very difficult.  It is difficult to find out. If so many of us appear all at once, it will also arouse others' suspicion. If someone is interested in investigating, this matter may be exposed at any time. By then, our Cao family  The trading houses will have fun. At that time, the magician unions of the four empires will all look at us. No matter how we explain it, it will have no effect. I feel that their combat power is stronger than that of the four empires. This war  In the future, we won¡¯t be afraid of the people from the four empires, and they will understand our power, but we still have to be more careful about the Magicians¡¯ Union.¡± Li Cong thought of some of the horrors within the Magicians¡¯ Union.  Characters, I am actually a little scared in my heart. These guys are like dragons but not their tails. Who knows their true strength? Some of them have not appeared in society for a long time. This one  His hidden strength is very powerful.

    When it comes to spending, Bai Er is not someone who has never seen money before. From the time Li Cong started doing business to now, we have never seen how much money there is. Every first-level manager of the Cao family firm has hundreds of billions in his hands.  The money is flowing, and now he has trillions of money in his hands, but this plan is so money-consuming, something he did not expect. He first took out an account book, first of all, there were more than 300 people here, each  The salary given to them by Moonlight is 30 million taels of silver. After this money is given to them, they do nothing and have to give their families a mobile phone.Sometimes the cost of things will increase. Just like this month, the money spent on them alone is 40 million taels of silver. When Li Cong saw this number, he felt that it was nothing. He still spent this little money.  It's affordable. You have to know that the frontline costs this amount of money almost every day. Now here it's still as much money as a month. Besides, these are all for magic apprentices. None of them are simple figures. There are 100,000 people.  Only one of them will come out. It's okay for such a person to give others a relatively high salary. If he gives people a salary of an ordinary person, it would be strange if they don't leave. But what Bai Er said next made Li Cong no longer have it.  With this thought, he also felt that spending money was really powerful.  This is the first time that Li Cong feels that spending money is a problem. This has to catch up with Xiao Ao who used to make money.

    This magic apprentice will not become his original self immediately after drinking those potions.  They still need to transform their bodies, which takes about two months, because their bodies are just magic apprentices, and they can only sense some magic elements, but what does the magic elements look like when they flow in their bodies?  They don't know that this all needs to be improved by some medicine, even some things from Warcraft.  In this month, they have to drink various drugs about 60 times. Each time these drugs cost 200,000 taels of silver, these 60 times are equivalent to 12 million taels of silver. This is just one person.  Knowing that there are more than 300 people here, this adds up to 3.6 billion silver, which is also a monthly expenditure.  Just now, I felt that 40 million taels of silver was nothing at all, but now the 3.6 billion taels of silver can no longer be treated as nothing. Even Li Cong felt that the expense was a bit excessive. It¡¯s not that he felt bad about money, but  Because the number of people is too small, one person costs tens of millions of taels of silver on average.  In the training camp of the warriors, seventh-level warriors may be trained, but here comes a fake magician. To be honest, if there is a fight, that seventh-level warrior can kill these 300 fake magicians.  Kill them all without breathing.  But thinking about the social effects of those magicians, he felt that this matter was not impossible.  There seems to be no problem for these fake magicians to do things that seventh-level warriors cannot do.

    This was just the beginning, and what happened next was even more serious. The potion they drank cost 500,000 taels of silver per bottle. If they went out to travel around the world, each of them would have to carry at least 20 bottles.  , otherwise people might find out. This is another 10 million taels of silver, and they have to send a team to cooperate. The expenses of these people are quite a lot. It¡¯s all a matter of calculation.  Li Cong felt tired. It can be said that the price of each fake magician was more than 50 million taels of silver. Originally, Li Cong wanted to produce it on a large scale, but now it seems that it is no longer needed.  Just use these 300 to test the water first. Oh my god, this is 15 billion fucking dollars. If you pull them all, how much will it be? This plan of yours has not brought you any benefits yet.  Well, all the 15 billion silver has been spent. Such an investment method is probably the only one who has such courage. It is estimated that even if the emperors of the four empires were changed, they would never spend so much money to complete such a project.  A thing with no prospect at all. Of course, if this thing is done well, Cao's Commercial Bank will rise to several levels in the future. Li Cong directly shelved his expansion plan. We must see  The effect can only be continued to increase. Li Cong is going to ask Bai Er to quickly put these hundreds of people into practice. Otherwise, even if there are so many losses, the experiment will have to be shut down immediately. It is really too big.  It costs money and I can¡¯t afford it.

    "Bai Er, I didn't expect that it would be so difficult to implement this plan now. If it were in the past, I guess the silver issue would have been no problem, but now our war is not over yet, and people from the other three empires are only superficial.  They are frightened by us. If they don't take other actions, our Cao Family Trading Company will have no problem supporting this research. But if we fail on the battlefield, it is estimated that the other three empires will quickly freeze us.  In some industries in various countries, if this happens, we will lose our source of income. The large amount of money we earned in the past cannot be moved around casually. It is like a river. If it flows every day, we  You can't see anything if you pull some out casually, because you can replenish them quickly. But if the river is not flowing, this will not be so good. Maybe if we pull out some casually, our lives will be ruined.  But it is really difficult, so you must be cautious. The development here is good. We will see what kind of people these people can help us contact later. We will release ten people every year and let them work in different places.  The four empires applied for magicians to be photographed, and the others just pretended to be the magicians. Anyway, the magicians¡¯ union thought they were geniuses.No one will impersonate them if they are discovered.  There was nothing we could do but silence them all.  "Li Cong had a trace of judgment in his eyes. There is nothing that can be done about this. When a superior has a certain situation, what he needs to consider every day is how to let his people die and help him keep the secrets. Even though he is  I don't like doing this, but I have no other choice.

    Hearing that these people might be silenced if possible, Bai Er also felt uncomfortable. These people themselves regarded them as their treasures, but they thought of the best interests of the Cao family firm.  It doesn't matter anymore. Each of these people are like this. Even if they are silenced, it doesn't matter. The magic apprentice seems to be a high-ranking person in society, but he is involved in a large organization like the Cao Family Trading Company.  , their lives are nothing.  Next, the two people talked about some other things, all of which were improvements to this research base. Some of the methods Li Cong proposed were also practical, such as letting these researchers have a professional title instead of simply  Such a big pot system allows them to form their own group on a small scale.  Let them be responsible for the public relations project, and besides, they must be given some financial assistance, such as rewards or something, although it is impossible for them to go out.  But the construction on this island must start quickly. At least it must be a good town.  Otherwise, if the scientists here stay for a long time, some bad things will happen. If these people become insane, it will be their biggest loss. I don¡¯t want such a situation to happen. All of these are  It is something to pay attention to.

    On the frontline battlefield, everything this time was basically over. In one night, everything was completely different from yesterday. 1.2 million troops of the Royal Guards Cavalry Corps were captured, and 130,000 people died.  270,000 people were injured. It can be said that this legion has been disabled, and the remaining people are of little use. Other legions also came out to help, with more than 500,000 casualties, and millions of people were killed.  Prisoner, the Crown Prince himself was injured, one of his arms is probably broken, but it doesn¡¯t matter. People like the Crown Prince can get all kinds of good elixirs. These things are not useful to others.  It was possible that he could only drag his mutilated limbs for the rest of his life, but for this person, it was fine. On the third day after the injury, someone from the capital sent medicine over, but what followed was still  There is another imperial edict. The general meaning is that the imperial court feels that the prince's health is not very good, so there is no need to continue to stay on the front line. It is better to return to the capital. The second prince in the capital has already made preparations.  Coming here, he will serve as the new marshal to lead the three armies. For the prince, this is worse than having both of his arms broken. This news is the most fatal news for him. This second prince  He has always been a powerful figure in the army. There is nothing that can be done about it. There are not many brothers who know military affairs. The second prince is the only one who has some ability. The others are not good at all. The emperor is called  He came as a last resort.

    The prince knew that he had failed this time. After returning to the capital, he would definitely not be the same as before. His failure this time could be said to be a miserable one. It pushed him to be on the opposite side of most of the gentry.  Because a large number of the young masters of the Southern Empire have died, most of them are their most beloved sons or grandsons. No one wants such a result. Of course, the people from the Cao Family Trading Company must be  They really want this result. In their opinion, some things are like this. This can also make the people of the Cao Family Trading Company better prepared. The head coach of the Southern Empire has not come yet. After this failure, they are even more prepared.  will not come out easily, and the Cao Family Trading Company does not have the ability to attack. The war may enter a certain stalemate stage. Without the transportation of airships, it will take the second prince of the Southern Empire a week at the earliest to reach the front line.  Come on, the Cao Family Trading Company can quickly transport more than 2 million troops to the front line during this period of time, which can make itself stronger. Although there is still a huge gap with the Southern Empire, but no matter what  , this disparity can already be reduced a lot, and most people in the Southern Empire can know that the Cao Family Trading Company is also strengthening its own. Of course, the Cao Family Trading Company has also launched a redemption policy. These are those prisoners of war.  , you can all use money to buy them back.  If they were ordinary soldiers from the past, they would naturally not be able to sell them.  The Southern Empire will not buy them back, and the Cao Family Trading Company will not sell them. There is a reason for this, but these people are different. These people are all from rich families and can sell them for money.

    For ordinary soldiers, when they are defeated, they no longer have ordinary identities. They can only beReally listen to the instructions from above and become a slave.  The court here won't pay them any money. Besides, even if they are willing to pay them, the Cao Family Trading Company will not sell them back, because when they go back, they may put on military uniforms and so on and they may immediately have combat effectiveness.  , this is absolutely not allowed for people from the Cao Family Trading Company, and for people of this era.  Prisoners of war are of no use at all. Those who died on the battlefield can receive the best treatment, but those who surrendered have no one to care about them. The Cao family business will spend money after every war.  The money bought those people back, but people from the four empires felt that the people in the Cao Family Trading Company had something wrong with their brains. How could they do such a thing.  Could it be that his brain is rusty?  These people all have some feelings of failure. What role can they play?  Of course, this is what Li Cong said. No one can understand things on the battlefield better than prisoners of war. They cannot continue to go to the battlefield for the time being.  So they can go to the military academy, inside the school.  They can teach the recruits everything they know. They are the most competent officers, and Li Cong often tells his men that staying alive on the battlefield is the most important thing, and other things are just a cloud.  It's bullshit about killing one's life to achieve righteousness. Everyone is dead. What's the use of victory? Even if it's a failure, as long as people are or, they can make up for it in the future.

    But the people of the Royal Guards Cavalry Corps are completely different. Even if the Southern Empire Court does not come up with the money, their families will definitely come up with the money. Of course, there will be many of them.  As the eldest son, these people had the right to inherit in the past. Now that something happened and they became prisoners of war, they will naturally have no right to inherit after they return. However, the people of the Cao Family Trading Company will definitely not let them just like that.  If they are depressed, there will definitely be some way for them to regain control of the family. Even if they cannot become the heirs, they can still create a huge wave in their family. By then, everything will be over, Nan  Of course, the empire cannot see Li Cong's sinister intentions. These families will definitely buy back their own people for their own face. Of course, they don't buy them back and use them as good people, just to gain face.  That's it, and what the Cao Family Trading Company didn't expect was that they all started bidding one by one. Why did your young master bid 700,000 taels of silver? How come this one in mine only cost 500,000 taels of silver? This  What means?  Do you people from the Cao family business look down on people from our family?  Why are people in our family cheaper than people in his family?  Does it feel like we are inferior to their family?  The young master in our family is not as good as the young master in their family?  Things like this made them almost fight one by one. Of course, Li Cong didn't know about these things. These are all things later.

    Such things as redemption have not happened before, but they did not redeem them like this when they redeemed them. Generally speaking, for example, if there was a war between the Southern Empire and the Northern Empire, all the prisoners of war from the Northern Empire would also have to be redeemed.  He was brought to the Southern Empire and sold, and the price was the price of a slave. It couldn't be much more expensive. The current redemption surprised everyone in the Southern Empire. Everyone knew about the Cao Family Trading Company.  Many people can make money, but they never expected that they would earn as much as they do now. Each of them clearly marked the price for each person. These young masters used to often buy and sell people in the slave market. They have never  None of them thought that one day they would become the target of being bought and sold. Some of them were not even willing to go back to their homes, because they knew that if they went back, they would not have the same life as before.  You know what it is like to be abandoned by your family. Even if you live in a family, your life will be different from the past. Many people may not be able to stand the oppression and become different from normal people.  Because they are very aware of this, some of them don't want to go back, but now there is no other way. They often make passive choices.  Just like now, this matter is not up to them.  It is impossible to keep that, because you are a man of shining gold, and you can sell it for at least 50,000 taels of silver. You have captured more than a million people and hundreds of billions of silver. Isn't this money profitable?

    Just like a young master from the Earl's Mansion, it is his lifelong wish to go to the battlefield, which is different from those at home.  There is not so much intrigue in his mind, and the affairs of these people make him look very uncomfortable. Although he is the eldest son, he is a person with a low status in the family, but because he has his father  As long as his father is still there, his status will not change.  His father will also consider things for him, that is, let him have a good experience on the front line. After returning with this resume, he will take over the title of earl. Who knew that something like this would happen now?Love, he is the same as most people, what he thinks in his heart is that he would be better off dead.  He still remembered the situation at that time. Many people didn't know what to do. There were airships everywhere in the sky, and the things on the ground were surprising. He could actually kill dozens of people in a minute.  Such a thing directly killed his war horse, and then he no longer had a war horse.  This can only be followed by everyone else's escape. The cavalry all know that as long as they lose their horses, their fate will not be very good. The result is exactly the same as he imagined. They all  He was driven into a large flat land, and the tens of thousands of troops from the Cao Family Trading Company around him captured these people and treated them as prisoners?  This is the most shameful thing for him, but he has no other way, even if he wants to die, it is impossible.

    After he was defeated, he went to the military camp of the Cao Family Trading Company, where he saw many things that he had never seen before. Of course, they would not get those powerful weapons. The work they did every day was  Strengthen the external fortifications, but there is nothing else. The food is still very good. Not to mention that I am the son of an earl, even if I am the young master of a duke's family, it is nothing. They all have to eat honestly.  It's a little better than soldiers, but it's different here. There's no noodles at all. All they eat are white flour steamed buns. The fine clothes and fine food in the capital seem to be too far away from them.  Eating this food and pickles also feels delicious. Compared with those who are already dead, my life is already very good. At least my head is still on my head, right?  However, their food is still not enough compared to the people in the Cao Family Trading Company. The people in the Cao Family Trading Company eat meat buns and even meat soup. I heard that they have stipulated that everyone must have some food every day.  Half a pound of meat is eaten, and it must be eaten, otherwise the physical strength will not be able to keep up. It is said that these things are purchased from the occupied areas of the Southern Empire. Many merchants in the Southern Empire specially provide them to the Cao Family Trading Company.  They all forgot that the army sent pork. This army was at war with the Southern Empire. In their eyes, it seemed that they had accepted the rule of the Cao Family Trading Company. They forgot that they were a Southern Empire.  of people.

    These are nothing, the most important thing is the redemption policy created by the Cao Family Trading Company, which makes me feel like an animal. I have been to the slave market in the capital many times, and I didn¡¯t expect that I would be able to do it.  Isn't it surprising to become a person like those slaves? He had thought about this before, but he felt that after his family lost its power, he was made like that by His Majesty the Emperor. Absolutely  He didn't expect that it would be the people from the Cao Family Trading Company who made him what he is now, which made him feel so embarrassed. He saw that several people around him were the same as him, and they must have the same thoughts as him. They  He would not believe that one day people like him would become slaves. He would never dream of such a thing. But now it is a fact. He is priced at 1.5 million taels of silver. This money is nothing to him, that is, one year.  It's just pocket money. In fact, he feels uncomfortable in his heart. Is he worth that little money?  He saw the old housekeeper in his family. The old housekeeper was his father's confidant. His father must have asked him to come here this time. His mother left early and his father had always been taking care of him. It seemed that the people at home must also be here.  Knowing that he was defeated, he would definitely not have a good life after he returned. However, he thought about the officer from the Cao Family Trading Company who would find him one day. The words of that person were still in his mind. Did he talk to that person before leaving?  Can someone please contact me?  It will definitely be difficult to go back by yourself. If you can cooperate with that person, maybe everything will not be like this. The power of these people combined is not small.

    One day, as soon as he finished his work, an officer from the Cao Family Trading Company came and said the following to him: "You know you people won't have a good life even if you go back. Your family members  , your friends, even your wives and children will not treat you the same as before. Do you know why? It is because you have become a prisoner. In this society, prisoners have no status.  Do you still want the kind of life you had before? If you do, our people from Cao's Commercial Bank will help you. People here are in the same situation as you, and their lives will definitely be difficult after they return.  I don¡¯t know if you have thought about it. If you all unite, you will become a big force. What we do is to give you a platform. You can unite through us. Two useless people are nothing.  Yes, but what about twenty? Who will bully you? You can help one person gain status first, and in exchange he will help you later.Yes, if this happens, there is at least half a chance that you will be in the same position as you are now. Besides, our Cao Family Firm will still have our people on your territory. If we want to do something, we won¡¯t.  If there is a problem, it can be solved with help. I wonder if you have this idea?  "The man's words appeared again, and he was really tempted. Many times, such things are very attractive, especially for a prisoner like himself.
