    After briefly explaining the special features of the flag, Jin Ge became more and more surprised.  Chengbang and the others seemed to have a lot of fun with the various resources in the Shifang Mountains. No wonder he was told not to be too angry before and that he could guarantee the general resources in the mountains.  "Master, thank you Jin Ge for changing our lives for us incompetent Kuhaha people. We no longer have to be bandits and have our backs stabbed. I can't speak, but I won't take my life away from you, Master."  I'll frown a bit." After the team passed by, Jin Ge suddenly said as he watched Cheng Bang preparing to mount his horse to follow.  Chengbang turned his head in surprise and said: "Are you okay? Okay, don't say anything weird. Why do I want your life? What matters is that you live well. There are a lot of troubles waiting for you, let alone you.  I still have a younger sister to support." Jin Ge laughed and said, "Now, I guess my daughter will support me. As the logistics manager, I have to ask her for my share of the money." "Some bosses like to ask their subordinates.  You can express your loyalty with all kinds of words that make your blood boil. When you really need to put your life on the line, with the words "give it to me", when the boss cares about his own life, his subordinates will scream strangely.  After a while, it depends on the direction of the wind, and it doesn't matter if you don't mean what you say.  But for some bosses, it doesn't matter what you say, just listen to what they say and watch what they do. When the critical moment comes, the boss can be relied on and the subordinates can spare themselves This is the difference.  Why doesn¡¯t Jin Ge understand this?  The group of people I follow now are typical examples of people who do more and talk less.  What I didn¡¯t say is that when the critical moment comes, just don¡¯t give up.  Jin Ge reminded himself secretly.  ¡°Without these few days, he, and the guys who came with him to Yong¡¯an to play as pioneers, wouldn¡¯t know what it means to be a normal person.  How could he be so prosperous in Yong'an before?  Now.  It's not that everyone is letting him, complimenting him, and obeying him, on the contrary, he has been arguing with people about various details of various business arrangements more than once recently.  Several times the two sides argued so hard that they almost started fighting.  When I was a bandit before, how could these people dare?  But this just shows that they regard themselves as ordinary people, ordinary people who can do business seriously, and they are no longer bandits who draw swords against each other.  Such equal treatment.  This kind of normality has not been enjoyed by anyone for a long time.  The news of Shuanghu Banner entering Yongan spread quickly. Perhaps, it was precisely because of the preparations made by Jin Ge a few days ago that everyone is now extremely calmly waiting for Chengbang and the others' actions.  After Chengbang settled down, he and Ye Yichen immediately visited Du Yueru, Mu En and others separately.  Accompanied by them, they also had a routine chat with the head of the Du family.  Originally, the head of the Du family did not really make the appointment to show off his power, and with his kindness, Du Yueru made the atmosphere lively, and it could be said that the guest and the host enjoyed themselves.  In this meeting with the Du family, Chengbang clearly stated that in two days, they would host a banquet for people from all walks of life in Yong'an City at Yongqing Building.  Explain their future business ideas.  After completing these things, Cheng Bang went to have a casual meal with Qin Feng and chat about something casually.  Is this negligence?  Qin Feng didn't dare to think so.  When Chengbang sent someone to send the post, Qin Feng was of course angry. He felt that this guy didn't take him seriously. But when he put Chengbang's information on matters related to Heifeng Village, which is now Black Mountain Fort,  After some arrangements, I suddenly felt that this was not the case.  Whether it's capturing Heifeng Village, cleaning up supplies, or purchasing properties.  It can be said that the order of meeting Yongan's various parties this time has its own ingenuity.  Moreover, Chengbang seems to be deliberately avoiding the conflict between his side and Fengxing Chamber of Commerce This is what he wants to do most now.  Now, on the surface, it seems that the team sent by Fengxing Chamber of Commerce to explore Shifang Mountain encountered an accident.  Then Montenegro helped with the search and rescue and follow-up matters, and that was it.  Chengbang will regard the Fengxing Chamber of Commerce as a partner that they can deal with more in the future, but now it seems that they don't know each other.  If he was serious about negotiating with Qin Feng now, the atmosphere would not be right, and it would not be conducive for him to control the news himself.  Does the other party have an expert¡¯s guidance behind his back?  Or does he himself understand this kind of behavior so well?  Qin Feng thought about the rumors that the other party might be a descendant of a family that had lost power in Chu State, and couldn't help but believe it.  How could a child from an aristocratic family who had not been surrounded by worldly relationships since childhood have such a gentle way of dealing with things?  As for the idea that Ye Yichen was the Qinghe princess of the Yue Kingdom, it was too unbelievable and could never appear in the mind of someone like Qin Feng.  Mu En was the first among all the guests to arrive at Yongqing Tower.  In fact, he came a little too early.  After all, Yongqing House is the largest restaurant in Yong'an, and there is a dinner scheduled for the day before. In Yong'an City, Chengbang's face is not big enough to ask Yongqing House to give them more time.  The people from Heishan Fort arrived at Yongqing Building early in the morning to start setting up.  But after Chengbang, Ye Yichen and the others arrived at Yongqing Tower, theySoon, Mu En came.  Mu En has been running the demon core business for many years. In addition to being proficient in business, he must also have full experience in organizing guild activities and so on.  But as soon as he arrived at the place, he felt that the other party was more knowledgeable than him, and every detail was prepared very properly.  The seating arrangement of the guests was not random at all, and the relationship between each other was also taken into consideration. Of course, it seemed that their source of information was mainly anecdotal information, and some of the information was not very accurate.  As for Mu En, he can still fill in the gaps in this aspect.  The standard of the banquet will be very high, and each guest will also have a small gift, which is produced by the Shifang Mountains of similar value. This time, it is mainly medicinal materials.  Needless to say, medicinal materials, medicines are all based on the quality characteristics of the medicinal materials themselves and are only slightly processed.  Those experienced and powerful merchants who specialize in medicinal materials can easily separate the medicinal materials and analyze their characteristics.  There is no doubt that all medicinal materials are fresh enough and of sufficient quality, without discounts at all.  These are just routine preparations for a grand banquet. This time, Black Mountain Castle obviously does not intend to make it too routine.  They deliberately cleared the middle of the entire grand banquet hall, and all the banquet tables were arranged around the middle space.  At first, Mu En thought they had invited some troupe to perform, but when the people from Black Mountain Castle kept bringing in the prepared things and setting them up, his eyes widened.  "Mr. Mu, I'm so sorry. Everyone here is busy, so I'm neglecting." Chengbang was confirming the dinner arrangements with the store one by one at the back. When his subordinates reported that Mu En had arrived, he hurriedly came out to welcome him.  "Heishan Castle is really a big deal." Mu En praised.  Dealed with several times.  He raised his expectations for Cheng Bang again and again, but always found that he still underestimated him - or underestimated the power behind him.  "After all, we are leading a group of bandits to change careers. We have no sincerity. How can we trust everyone? The people in Yong'an City have taken good care of us. Mr. Mu. Your help is indispensable here." "Master, you are so polite.  It's you who helped me. The demon cores you gave me have made me live very well recently. It would be better if there are still as good things as before. Unfortunately, the local market in Yong'an has never been there.  As it develops, I¡¯m afraid we¡¯ll have to rely on Heishan Fort for help in this regard.¡± Chengbang scratched his head in a way that was unbecoming of his status.  He said with some embarrassment: "What are you talking about? In fact, I would rather hunt monsters in the mountains. After the banquet here, I will get to know everyone, and then I will go to the mountains to continue my experience, and also do some good things on the way.  It¡¯s easy to make a living with money. We need to ask Mr. Mu to take care of us here in Yong¡¯an City.¡±  ." Mu En came here in advance.  Naturally, it wasn't just because he wanted to chat more with Cheng Bang and others.  He has a good relationship with Chengbang, so coming to help is one thing, but more importantly, he wants to talk to Chengbang in private about his needs.  Chengbang has proven time and time again that they have extremely strong control and acquisition speed over the various products produced in the Shifang Mountains. No matter how long they have been in the mountains before, the quantity and quality of the things they have taken out can still be said to be great.  It's thrillingly high.  The set of fire demon cores given to Qin Feng to operate is definitely a rare treasure that has been rare in decades.  With such channels, Mu En can naturally handle some orders that he was unable to handle before.  Mu En handed a bound booklet to Chengbang and said, "These are some needs from old friends and customers from all over the world. See if you can help. I marked some of them.  In order to obtain something special, the harvest may not necessarily be money, but something else" Mu En deliberately turned the book over to a page and ran his fingers across the page inadvertently.  Zhaonan Road.  The Xue family in Jinping Town.  Every year, four kilograms of Xumi dates and twelve kilograms of Qingyang grass of grade five or above are grown.  Water-based demon core, level five or above, sixteen pieces.  If the Yinlan Jiao can be captured and sent to Jinping alive or within one month after death, there are three requirements.  Chengbang took a breath.  Jinping Xue family?  This was the family of Xue Zhen, the general of the Chu Kingdom's imperial guard, not to mention that he also had a minister, three chief envoys, the chief officers of several local elite garrisons, etc.  In the Chu State, the top three sects, they actually offered three required prices for a silver orchid dragon?  The energy of the Xue family, almost every one of these three requirements cannot be measured in money.  If it were simpler to ask them for money, and a request was worth a million, the Xue family would probably feel that it was too easy and simple, and would be relieved.  There are also various other needs written in the booklet, ranging from powerful families in various places to the army of Chu State, Da Nei, and various spiritual sects.  These demands cover almost all types of products: there are monster cores, furs, bones and internal organs of monsters and beasts, there are various kinds of herbs that are plant fruits, etc.There are minerals and some unexplainable strange things, and there are even sects looking for suitable places for their disciples to practice If these lists are purely based on money prices, they are actually not superior to those on the market.  But what's rare is that the quantity requirements are extremely high, or the delivery time requirements are extremely high, or the quality requirements are very strict, which is very difficult to handle. Ordinary merchants will never be able to handle this kind of order.  Some monsters can be said to be rare to encounter, and it is not easy to encounter them only once every ten or eight years.  If he hadn't felt that Chengbang and the others knew far more about the Shifang Mountains than the average adventure team, Mu En wouldn't have bothered to make this booklet for them.  Chengbang said clearly: "That's not bad. If we hunt with a specific purpose, the profit will be much higher than if we hunt casually. Manpower is limited, and the things that can be moved are also limited." Mu En said with a smile: "Yes.  Just because you have such a tone to say these things, Chengbang said, at least it means that some of the things in the list are completely fine.  This made Mu En very happy.  He has a wide network of people in Yong'an City, and he also helped Chengbang and the others with welcome matters.  When Du Yueru arrived, the guests had almost arrived.  As the representative of the Du family, she couldn't come earlier.  This is determined by the family's ostentatious attributes.  When Du Yueru walked into the banquet hall, what he saw was a large group of people surrounding the middle table, pointing and chattering.  "Everyone, do you have anything new?" Du Yueru walked forward with a smile.  I saw the fourth lady of the Du family arriving.  The guests nearby quickly made room for her to walk to the center platform.  At this sight, Du Yueru was stunned.  On a huge platform with about six tables put together, there is a model from Yong'an City to Black Mountain Fort. It seems that it should be fired directly from clay.  Then it was painted with paint, which is a little crude.  However, the terrain conditions along the way were mapped very accurately, which shows that Chengbang and the others have been very accurate and detailed in their mapping of this terrain.  And this is only the part they can show others.  If it is marching and fighting.  If you encounter an opponent who knows the terrain so well in a place like this, you will already lose more than half.  Du Yueru raised his head slightly and saw Qin Feng from Fengxing Chamber of Commerce among the crowd.  Qin Feng's face was solemn, but his expression was actually somewhat relieved.  Probably, he felt that the other party was paying attention to Black Mountain Castle for more than a day or two, and such surveying and mapping could be done.  The manpower, material resources and time invested here are probably several times that of myself. Isn't it normal to defeat yourself?  On the terrain model, white plaster models show Black Mountain Fort¡¯s plans for development along the way.  The original site of Heifeng Village will be almost completely rebuilt. It will be divided into the Black Mountain Fort defense area on the mountain and the business and travel reception area at the foot of the mountain. There will be a simple trading market, a martial arts arena, a warehouse and other facilities.  The outer ring of the entire area is a city wall and moat that are completely outward-facing to prevent the attack of monsters.  The construction of Black Mountain Fort looks like an entire fortress complex, and its defensive power is amazing.  Not only that, Heishan Fort actually came up with a construction plan for a road from Yong'an to Heishan Fort.  This road is not the same as the road that everyone usually takes now to enter the Shifang Mountains. It is a straight path.  We took a much simpler route and went directly through the mountains. Compared with the principle road, we saved at least two days, unless the weather was too bad.  It takes three days to reach Black Mountain Fort, which is a very comfortable speed.  There is a reception station in the mountainous area near Yong'an, and there are also a series of supply stations along the way. The distance and location are very appropriate.  At this time, everyone suddenly understood why Jin Ge hired so many construction teams at once.  Black Mountain Fort, their efforts are astonishingly large, and the construction team of several thousand people is obviously not enough.  If they want to consolidate the foundation of Black Mountain Castle in a short period of time, whether it is the castle defense group or roads, they will basically have to be completed within a year, so their current investment is just the tip of the iceberg.  We are all experts, and after a little calculation, we know that without an investment of more than 800,000 taels, none of this would be possible.  But now, Heishanbao has thrown almost all his family wealth into it, which is only a few hundred thousand taels, less than half of the entire investment.  This is just the cost of construction.  If you include the previous survey costs and the management costs after construction, the total investment may exceed 1.2 million taels.  Black Mountain Castle made such a big move all at once, which really shocked everyone.  Do they really have that much money?  Or are they really confident that they can make that much money in the coming days?  This is a problem shared by everyone.  Of course Chengbang won¡¯t explain that doing this is just part of it.  After hiring the construction team, Black Mountain Fort's own manpower can be devoted to dredging the headwind channel.  They also need to clear a passage from the base of Shifang Mountain to Black Mountain Fort.  The human and material investment in this part is equally expensive.  In addition to daily expenses, as well as the expenses of helping the personnel of Black Mountain Fort improve their cultivation, strength, etc.,It's already more than two million taels.  In addition, there is still a sum of money that needs to be invested in the development of aircraft, which is estimated to be not much less.  The plan was worked out, but Chengbang was really unsure of how to earn and spend three million taels of silver in one year, so he could only take it one step at a time.  Du Yueru was impressed by Chengbang's generosity, but she was a little unwilling to leave such matters entirely to Chengbang and Heishan Fort.  Yong'an City is the territory of the Du family. How can the Du family fall behind others when it comes to building bridges and paving roads?  This road, as well as the bases and markets that go deep into the mountains, all contain huge business opportunities.  Now, Yong'an City is the only city in the world that has not been caught in the flames of war and has access to the Shifang Mountains.  Even if the war between Yue and Chu subsides, Yong'an will still be able to achieve sufficient development by relying on the popularity accumulated during this period, and will continue to be the most important entrance and exit to the Shifang Mountains in the future.  This path will benefit the present and will benefit the future.  The Du family must make this road passable in the shortest possible time.  Although she did not receive the maximum authorization from the Du family, Du Yueru knew that what she was going to say next would definitely be recognized by the elderly in the family.  "Building bridges and paving roads is a great thing. How can we not count our Du family's share? It's really rare that there is such a detailed survey. Black Mountain Fort has already done a great job. This road construction matter makes our Du family a little nervous."  It's a modest effort. The Du family contributes 400,000 taels. "Okay, 40% share," said Cheng Bang's voice from behind the crowd.  Everyone¡¯s eyes immediately focused on Chengbang¡¯s face, who was standing not far away.  "Why are you looking at me? How much trouble will everyone save by building this road from Yong'an to there? I'm just going to collect some tolls for ten years. Except for maintaining roads and bridges, let me get my money back for the rest. Ten  After a year, regardless of whether the capital is fully recovered, it will only cover the cost of the road. " Du Yueru said with a smile: "In that case, how about recruiting enough construction teams to start the construction?  But the faster it is completed, the faster everyone will make money." "Okay," Chengbang agreed immediately.  "Everyone, take a seat first, and we will discuss the specific matters slowly. I also hope that this road can pass as quickly as possible. It would be great if we can all participate in the grand event." Qin Feng sighed secretly.  Chengbang and the people behind him are really smart.  Now even if he doesn't spend a penny, just relying on the survey results and road design plan is enough to occupy a large enough share in this road matter.  Since then, this road has directly tied all the forces in Black Mountain Fort and Yong'an City together, making them prosperous.  It is already too late to move Black Mountain Castle.  The new era of development of Yong'an City in Shifang Mountain has unexpectedly brought a group of bandits who had just transferred jobs into front of everyone.
