Chapter 28 The puppet plan
This is inconvenient to explain the beauty of the newcomer. (I hate the river crabs so much!) After dawn, Zhou Shixiong took Li Jie's hand and came out to pay homage to the elders. Ruan Phuket's name changed from godmother-in-law to mother-in-law, and Zhou Shixiong spared no effort to grasp his relationship with Ruan Phuket.
"Mother-in-law, the child wants to go to Lang San Mansion after a while. After the goods are purchased, Sanniang will go with her mother-in-law first and build the warehouse." Zhou Shixiong tried his best to make mistakes in the title, or You Min knows the rules, and when he enters the door, he ranks it according to the order. You Min is an aunt and so on. As for the future wife, the title of mistress is hers.
Guan Chongguang toasted Zhou Shixiong last night, and gave him a thick letter and disappeared. Zhou Er transported a batch of weapons as Zhou Shixiong's request, and escorted the slaves to Zhoujiazhuang as soon as it dawns. The demand for manpower in the new camp exceeded expectations, and the slaves who had just been sent back were sent back not long ago. The auxiliary camp looked a little bit, and they had to stay in Zhoujiazhuang for the time being to continue polishing.
Zhou Shixiong arranged for Zhou Wu to reopen the transportation team and wrote to Hu Guangli, asking him to organize a batch of goods in Nanning Mansion for the opening of the Langshan Mansion Goods Store. After a busy schedule, breakfast ended. Ruan Phuc Ah Jiang continued to visit Zhoujiazhuang with several women, while Zhou Shixiong met Chen Yongfu again in the study.
"Chen Qianhu, didn't you rest well last night?" Chen Yongfu's eyes were covered with bloodshot, and he could tell at a glance that it was a sequelae of insomnia.
"Zhou Qianhu stops laughing at me. After reading those treasure knives, it would be strange if I can sleep!" Chen Yongfu touched the single knives hanging around his waist. It seemed that he had already raised his dressing change.
"Since Chen Qianhu is satisfied, our transaction is settled." Zhou Shixiong's request had already been said in Zhennan Pass that this batch of single-handed funds were considered as payment for the goods. Neither party had mentioned anything like a contract document, and this kind of thing could only be understood by one's heart.
"If there is anything that Zhou Qianhu needs help, just send someone to say it, and I will ensure that I will do it beautifully." Chen Yongfu left happily. In addition to the general manager of Zhoujiazhuang, Zhou Si had another identity, the head of business in Guangxi. She is very famous and is actually only responsible for handing over to Chen Yongfu, reselling the goods from Lang Sang Mansion to Chen Yongfu, and then purchasing the goods from Pingxiangzhou from Chen Yongfu.
Zhou Shixiong was stingy than Huang Cheng'en. Huang Cheng'en gave Chen Yongfu 20% of the profit, while Zhou Shixiong only gave 10% of the profit. However, Zhou Shixiong took out what Huang Cheng'en didn't have, which was what Chen Yongfu needed. Even if the price was lowered, Chen Yongfu was still happy to trade with Zhou Shixiong. In fact, he charged both ends, but Zhou Shixiong asked him to stand on the side of the Zhou family when there was a conflict between the Zhou and Huang families, and this was what he bought with the profit.
With Zhou Shixiong's official position and strength alone, Chen Yongfu is not qualified to charge him. Therefore, Chen Yongfu was not dissatisfied with any dissatisfaction, and Zhou Shixiong also got what he wanted.
After solving commercial problems, Zhou Shixiong began to train a new batch of elephants. There were originally one hundred elephants transporting goods in turn, and this time, one hundred elephants were expanded, so that the elephant team would participate in the transportation every time.
Zhou Shixiong trained the auxiliary barracks and the elephant team in Pingxiangzhou, and Guan Chongguang expanded the Jinyiwei and auxiliary barracks in the new camp. Both of them were waiting for news about Ruan Phucbao.
Nong Xiaogao used ruthless actions to plot against his two uncles and completely grasped the power of the Tayy tribe. However, Nong Xiaogao was not happy for a few days. The Beijing, Nong and Chinese coalition forces led by Nong Phucbao appeared near the territory of the Tayy tribe and issued an ultimatum to Nong Xiaogao, and chose one of them if they were to fight or surrender!
Nong is more efficient than anyone else. This battle is not easy to fight. Guangyuan's army was wiped out. How much combat power can the temporary strengthening of men have? It is not easy to surrender! It is inevitable to cede land, but how many villages can fill the appetite of the three families? I'm afraid that the entire Dai tribe will not fill the full if it is sent out!
When he found that he was unable to save the danger of extermination, Nong Xiaogao naturally thought of asking for help from his backer. So Nong Xiaogao found his daughter Nong Fangcao and handed her a letter. "Fang Cao, take this letter to Xuan Guang Mansion to ask for Lord Nguyen Phucshou and ask him to take action. No matter what, it must be done. The survival of the Taiyi tribe of Langsan depends on you." Nong Xiaogao handed the letter of help to his daughter Nong Fangcao, which was the last way he could think of.
"Don't worry, my daughter knows what to do." Nong Fangcao is only sixteen years old, has an ordinary appearance and a very good figure. She is a famous flower in the Daiyi tribe. However, because her father has no children, he raises her as a boy and has a decisive temperament.
It has been ten days since he secretly sent off his daughter. Nong Xiaogao has made the worst plan in his heart. Since the three tribes besieged the Daiyi tribe and the Guangyuan army's defeat has spread, and those with eyes in the Daiyi tribe can see it. The Guangyuan army has not come back, only the clan leader and his personal guards wander in front of everyone. The leaders of each village have joined the army to fight, and the dragons have no leader to do anything. In addition, in the face of the pressure of the three tribes, the Daiyi tribe is unprecedentedly united.
Although Nong Xiaogao did not receive any news from Nguyen Phuc, Nguyen Phucbao received it. Two days ago, Nguyen Phucbao sent someone to send a letter to Nguyen Phucbao, asking him to explain why he had to attack his vassal, Tayyen clan. Nguyen Phucbao studied this letter for two days, but he did not expect how to respond to Nguyen Phucbao's criticism.
"My husband, why not pass the letter to my sister-in-law, she will definitely help you solve this problem." Li Xiu knew her husband's level and proposed a feasible solution. Ruan Phucbao had no good solution, so he could only send someone to send Ruan Phucshou's letter to Zhoujiazhuang.
Ruan Phuc Ajiang received a letter from his elder brother and asked Zhou Shixiong to discuss it. She knew how to deal with Ruan Phuchou's troubles. As long as the problem of the Tayy tribe was quickly solved, Ruan Phuchou would have to suffer a loss. To achieve this, Zhou Shixiong's help is very important.
"Zi Qi, what do you think?" He handed over the letter from Ruan Phuc and Ruan Phuc to Zhou Shixiong. After he finished reading it, Ruan Phuc Ajiang asked.
"Mother-in-law, let me say that if you have anything to do, the child must do whatever he can." Zhou Shixiong did not intend to bargain. Striking the Daiyi tribe was the primary goal. If the coalition forces returned in vain due to other reasons, it would have a great impact on his next plan. Now he suffers some losses and finds a way to make money back in the future. If the Daiyi tribe escapes this danger, the new camp will have to deal with the threat of the Daiyi tribe for a long time.
Ruan Phuket admired Zhou Shixiong's reaction very much. He had already thought about it and would convince his elder brother to fully support Zhou Shixiong's business in Lang Sang Mansion. After saving the negotiation process, the two began to discuss the issue of Zhou Jiazhuang's troops. Zhou Shixiong pulled the wrench and pointed, "Mother-in-law, Zhou Jiazhuang can produce 300 cavalry and 2,000 infantry and 300 crossbows. If the uncle can send the help of the navy, my people can directly land on the nest of Nong's efficient, catch him off guard and capture Nong's efficient alive!"
"Ziqi, if Nongqi is solved, what do you plan to deal with the Dai tribe?" Ruan Phuket Ajiang had no idea about military affairs, but she believed that an army that could destroy 5,000 enemy troops should be fine to deal with a small town. With the help of his elder brother, it would definitely be foolproof. So, she wanted to talk to Zhou Shixiong about what happened after the war.
"Of course, the Daiyi tribe has to stay. The current situation is that we have the opportunity to divide the Daiyi tribe, but it is difficult to digest it in a short time. If one is not handled well, it may turn from good to bad at any time. Whether it is me or my uncle, it is okay to take the Daiyi tribe's land, but it can be sold if there is no one to farm. But the Daiyi tribe's population is difficult to deal with. The Nong tribe and the Chinese tribe have a large population, so they can disperse the Daiyi tribe's population into their own tribes and use marriage to slowly assimilate. My uncle and I don't have this condition and cannot use this method."
"According to what you say, wouldn't it be cheaper for the Nong tribe and the Chinese tribe?" Although Ruan Phuket Ah Jiang was a former princess, he had never really handled government affairs after all. He simply understood the annexation of ethnic groups as if it was finished if it was won. Zhou Shixiong didn't think so. He knew that the various tribes of Jiaozhi were used to using force to compete for land population between tribes. The losers not only lost their land but also became slaves, driving them to the winners. But this normality is unstable. Slaves want to escape every day, and slave owners are worried about slaves running away every day, like animated cats and mice, there is no end to the cycle.
"Mother-in-law, I have an idea. After seizing the high efficiency of Nong, I will also support someone to be the leader of the Daiyi tribe. As long as this person is obedient, all the Daiyi tribes are uncles." Zhou Shixiong's move is called cutting off the firewood from the bottom of the pot, which is better than annexing the Daiyi tribe.
"It's all my uncle's, what should you do? Do you want nothing if you work hard?" Ruan Phuket smiled. This little slip-on said it nicely. It seems that he is waiting for the eldest brother to bargain!
Zhou Shixiong had to do this, and he was not qualified to compete with Nguyen Phuo for control of the Tayen clan. Without Nguyen Phuo's help, even if he destroyed Nguyen Phuo's nest, he would not have been able to support puppets to control the Tayen clan. Because he had no status. No matter how bad Nguyen Phuo is, he will be the prefect of Lang San Prefecture, and of course the boss of Lang San Prefecture. As long as the power of the Nguyen Phuo in the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty did not have any problems, no one could threaten Nguyen Phuo's status in Lang San Prefecture.
With the name of Nguyen Phuc Bao, the policy of supporting puppets to control local areas can only be realized. The thing about Dayi must be the right time, place, and people, so that it will belong to the banner of some people and serve their interests. Zhou Shixiong had no foundation in the Northern Vietnamese Dynasty and was born with thin relatives, so it would be useless even if he could fly.
"With my mother-in-law here, I don't think my uncle will treat me badly." Zhou Shixiong certainly knew what to say, so Xiaoxiao flattered Ruan Phoenix Ah Jiang, which made Ruan Phoenix happy. Zhou Shixiong took the opportunity to propose, "Mother-in-law, the Lang Sang Mansion is in chaos during this period, so don't rush back, stay in Pingxiangzhou for a few more days." Ruan Phoenix Ah Jiang thought for a while and agreed to Zhou Shixiong's proposal.
Afterwards, Zhou Shixiong and Nguyen Phuc Ah Jiang wrote letters to inform the officials Chongguang and Nguyen Phuc Bao, asking them to cooperate to complete the plan. Zhou Shixiong, the candidate of the puppet, suggested using Nguyen Phuc, the younger brother Nguyen, who was captured. After this guy became very honest, those who didn't know him thought he had changed his personal life. His previous recklessness and irritability disappeared, and he was as gentle as a pet.
The new slave brought the news that the entire Guangyuan army was wiped out to the first group of prisoners, and Nong Xiaozhi was even more careful. He even drove away his former personal guards and did not allow them to appear by his side. His fear of death was undoubtedly revealed. Zhou Shixiong also suggested using this guy because he was afraid of death.
ps: Isn’t it just a drink? I don’t give a single red ticket. You are too much~~~~~~~~~~ I’m going to ask for red tickets!!!
