    Lu Chao quietly read the latest issue of Dahan Weekly. Sitting opposite him was the smuggler Guo Yun. Of course, his identity was no longer a secret to Lu Chao.  ¡é¡êFor this spy from the National Security Bureau of the Han Dynasty, Lu Chao could tolerate him breaking into the house. In Gou Yi's view, this was indeed an incredible thing.  This issue of the newspaper published a special report on the celebration of the Han Dynasty. "The celebration alone cost half a million taels of silver. You are really very generous." Lu Chao said sourly.  "The general may not have noticed the contents of the previous issues of the newspaper." Guo Yun smiled and pointed at the stack of newspapers he had just brought over, "Actually, this celebration did not cost the court a penny.  Come on, the cost of selling the naming rights and advertising space is not only enough to cover the cost of this time, but also a huge savings." "Oh?" Lu Chao flipped through the newspaper below, glanced at it, and said with a smile, "Gao Yuan still has it.  They are really good at plundering, but these businessmen are actually willing to spend the money of this rip-off?" Guo Yun rolled his eyes, "This is not plundering. In our Han Dynasty, as long as you pay the full amount of taxes and fees according to regulations, no one dares to do so.  Go to these businessmen to extort money. This is a trade, you agree with me. " "This is really strange. You spend so much money just to put up a sign there?" Lu Chao said sarcastically, "Just put up this sign.  Can it take his business to the next level? " "That's exactly the reason." Guo Yun nodded: "In our country, we encourage free trade. There are many competing companies and workshops in an industry. If you  If you don't want to let people know about your company and workshop, who will buy your products? Even Wu's Liquor Industry, the leader in the domestic wine industry, is facing a lot of challenges now, let alone other industries.  But Da Qin is very different." "What's the difference?" Lu Chao felt a little unhappy when he heard the arrogance in Guo Yun's words.  "How about giving an example?" Guo Yun smiled: "General, let me take the military industry you are most familiar with, such as arm-shaped crossbows. Now Daqin can also produce them, although the quality is not as good as ours.  It belongs to the Han Dynasty, but in the Qin Dynasty, the official craftsmanship camp is responsible for producing arm-length crossbows. No matter good or bad, no matter the cost, it is the industry of the imperial court, right? But in our Han Dynasty, these weapons have now been privatized.  , what the bosses are thinking about all day long is how to reduce costs while ensuring quality, because the reason is very simple, the military will only want you if you have good quality. If the quality of everyone involved is similar, then it will naturally depend on who you are.  The price is even lower. In the words of our king, only with competition can we make progress, so in addition to maintaining quality and reducing costs, our military workshop must also find ways to come up with some new products to attract the attention of the military.  , Otherwise, just wait for it to go bankrupt!" Lu Chao gritted his teeth and frowned.  The reason is very simple and can be explained as soon as it is explained, but there is no way to do this in Qin State.  Even in areas under its own control, it is impossible to open up ordnance to private production.  Isn¡¯t that going to cause chaos in the world?  "The same thing is promoted. In Dahan, there are many people doing this in every field. Then whoever has new technology will naturally make a fortune, and whoever can reduce costs will naturally occupy the market. If  Everyone is similar, but it depends on whose product can be deeply rooted in people's hearts. When people want to buy this kind of thing, your product will naturally come to mind, so this advertisement is naturally indispensable. "  Guo Yun said with a smile: "Like Cangzhou Shipping Company, the inland states and counties used to be not very familiar with what they do, but now he spent a lot of money to buy the naming rights for the celebration, and in an instant the name became known throughout the country. This is it."  That makes sense." "Is this shipping company very profitable?" Lu Chao asked.  "Of course, there is gold everywhere overseas. Once our fleet goes there, it won't just be picked up casually!" Guo Yun replied smoothly. As soon as the words came out, he suddenly realized something and immediately closed his mouth tightly.  Lu Chao smiled and did not continue talking about this issue. Right now, he simply did not have the strength to think about the navy issue. It would be useless even if he tried to find out something from this guy's mouth.  "I need gunpowder. I need the grenades you produced." Lu Chao threw away the newspaper in his hand and said to Guo Yundu.  Guo Yun shook his head: "General Lu, I'm afraid I have no way to solve your request. To be honest, our National Security Bureau has been under a lot of pressure by smuggling these ordinary ordnance to you, especially the pressure from the military. Opposite you  Commander Xu has written to the king many times, strongly requesting to stop this kind of tiger breeding operation. Therefore, it is impossible for us to achieve your request for the two types of weapons you are requesting now. Even if our National Security Bureau dares to do it,  We can¡¯t pass the military level. You must know very well that without the secret cooperation of the top military officials, we would not be able to transport even a single crossbow arrow.¡±bsp; "I need them." Lu Chao insisted: "Although I used some methods to pry over a few skilled technicians from Maowei, the quantity produced is insufficient. And if I want to capture Xianyang City,  A large number of these weapons must be needed, otherwise my army will bleed into a river of blood under the city of Xianyang without making any progress. All I need is the amount required to conquer Xianyang. I think you should have a way." "This, I have.  I can only go back and report to my superiors first. As for the outcome, I have no hope. General Lu, for such a weapon, I advise you to make plans early. It is better to seek help from others than to ask for yourself. I don¡¯t think the superiors will agree to sell it to you.  Such a weapon." Guo Yundao.  "The superiors may not approve it, but I believe you will find a way." Lu Chao winked, and Gou Yi immediately walked over and placed a deposit certificate from the People's Bank of China with a large denomination in Guo Chao's hand.  In front of the cloud.  "This is an anonymous deposit certificate. As long as anyone holds this deposit certificate, they can withdraw money from any of your banks." Gou Yi said: "Mr. Guo, this money is enough to last you the rest of your life."  Live a life that most people can't even imagine." Guo Yun smiled and gently pushed the deposit certificate back, "General Lu, you didn't use this money to buy these things, you came to buy my Guo Yun's head.  "My salary is very generous, which is enough for me and my family to live a comfortable life. I will report your matter to you. As for how to do it, it is not my decision." "Whether it is successful or not,  This order belongs to you." Lu Chao said with a smile: "It's my reward for bringing you so much food and weapons for me over the past two years." "You don't need to thank me. In fact, you know me very well.  I'm just following orders. In my heart, I wish that Da Qin would be finished soon. "General, this won't work for us Han." I said goodbye.  Guo Yun walked away with a puff of his sleeves.  Gou Yi was extremely angry and held the handle of the knife heavily with his hand.  "This bastard is really hateful. He really doesn't know what is good or bad." Lu Chao took a deep breath, "Is this an official of the Han Kingdom? Gou Yi, haven't you always been curious about why I like to chat with him?  "Yes, it's just a character after all." Gou Yi nodded.  "It's true that he is a minor character, but from his mouth and from these most ordinary things, I can get the most realistic situation of the big man and the reasons for some things that we can't imagine, such as the Han Dynasty.  A celebration. From our point of view, this is Gao Yuan's reason for plundering the people's wealth, but from this person's mouth, we get a completely different version.  Yixie said fiercely.  Lu Chao couldn't help but laugh, "Han businessmen are really rich. They took out tens or even millions of silver, and they still blinked. This weekly newspaper also published a piece of news, Gao Yuan used  A complete set of weapons was sold for more than one million taels, and it was also bought by the owner of the Cangzhou Shipping Company. Is it really so profitable to do shipping? " "General, what are these shipping companies doing?  Robbery!" Gou Yi whispered: "I got some news from Cangzhou. After these shipping companies went to sea, they went to the lands of those Fanyi barbarians, burned, killed and looted, and then used all possible means to rob them.  Transporting the goods back to the country is a robber. It is a business without capital, so it is naturally very rich. " "It cannot be said that it is a business without capital. Those ships still have to invest a lot of money in robbery.  , let alone so far away from his own country? Some time ago, it was reported in the newspaper that the Han Dynasty had acquired a territory called Fusang overseas. Gao Yuan divided it into four counties. Since it could become a county, the territory would not be the same.  Smaller." Lu Chao raised his head and closed his eyes, "The gap between us and Han is getting bigger and bigger." "General, you" Gou Yi looked at Lu Chao.  "Do you think I'm a little scared or timid?" Lu Chao said.  "Yes!" Gou Yi nodded.  "Are you not afraid? Han, my enemy, is getting stronger and stronger. However, being afraid does not mean that I dare not do it. I wonder what Gao Yuan had at the beginning. In more than ten years, he has been able to achieve what he is today.  , I have watched this person grow up, do I still know how talented he is? What he can do, I can naturally do, not to mention, my current starting point is much higher than his original starting point.  All I need is an opportunity." "Of course the general can do it." "By the way, how did you do the thing I asked you to do?" "General, how did you do with the child we found?  The prince's appearance is very similar, and the woman was indeed sent away from the palace that year.??Come.  I had it all arranged, and the woman knew what to do.  " "Very good, I am going out for a trip next, and this woman and child will also go with me.  " "Is the general going to see someone?  " "Of course, I have to meet a very important person, so you should follow me to meet him.  Lu Chao said with a smile.
