Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 180 Order Negotiation 1
Everyone exclaimed again, they didn't expect that Gongsun Xu would really agree, [-] war horses, if the real people let Yuan Shu get them, and Gongsun Xu sent someone to help him train the cavalry, I'm afraid they won't be able to come out. In two years, there will really be an organized cavalry under Yuan Shu's command.

At this moment, Cao Ren was regretting why he hadn't been the first to stand up. He really didn't expect Gongsun Xu to be so generous.Cao Ren is confident that among the representatives, no one understands military affairs better than him, and no one understands the importance of cavalry better than him.

However, Yuan Shu's subordinates took this sweetness away just like this. Now Cao Ren can't wait to go up and fight with Ji Ling and the others, and then grab the amount of [-] war horses.

However, you can’t be the number one, but you can be the second. Just when Cao Ren was about to speak, Gao Lan on the table next to him shouted loudly: “General, I can also accept the general’s invitation on behalf of my lord.” Request, however, I would like to ask the general, if it is possible to increase the transaction amount of war horses."

Of course Gongsun Xu understood that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were the richest brothers. At this time, the two giants agreed, and Gongsun Xu was basically at ease. Gongsun Xu had to consider Gao Lan's request.

However, in order to distinguish the difference between the first and the second, Gongsun Xu couldn't give the same amount.

"The total number of horses cannot exceed [-]." Gongsun Xu looked at Gao Lan with a disappointed look on his face, but he continued: "However, I can guarantee that there are [-] horses. They must have been on the battlefield .”

Hearing that there were [-] war horses, Gao Lan immediately replied from worry to joy: "Thank you, General."

As soon as Gao Lan sat down, Cao Ren immediately stood up and said: "General, please see that my lord fought side by side with the general to conquer the Yellow Turban. I hope the general can also increase the amount of war horses. My lord will definitely All the gold, silver and food will be cashed in according to the requirements of the general."

Gongsun Xu nodded and replied: "In terms of age, I have to respect General Cao Cao as an uncle. Since Uncle Cao trusts me so much, how can I not give him face? Well, the horses can be traded for [-] horses, and the rest Let's talk about it, okay?"

Cao Ren immediately replied happily: "Thank you, General."

Then, Cao Ren sat down and said to the two teenagers behind him: "Our cavalry can be formed. Now, Miaocai and Yuanrang are too excited to die."

While the representatives of other princes lamented that Gongsun Xu had negotiated an order for [-] war horses at once, they also deeply regretted that their actions were not timely enough. Others who wanted to buy war horses from Gongsun Xu rushed to the first place The one who grabbed the back stood up and expressed his willingness to comply with Gongsun Xu's request.

Gongsun Xu looked at the crowd and said with a smile: "The discount can only be given to the top three, but don't be discouraged, I will not treat you badly, and my military advisor Guo Jia will talk to you about the next thing. He is solely responsible for the matter."

After finishing speaking, Gongsun Xu announced that the banquet would continue, and everyone had to continue drinking and eating. In the distance, Sun Ce grabbed Zhou Yu and asked, "Why didn't you tell my elder brother just now?"

Zhou Yu smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? With your friendship with the General, are you afraid that the General will treat you badly? If there is no accident, we can get three thousand to four thousand horses. If you want more, it will be useless." , we don’t have that much money now.”

Sun Ce could only nod his head in agreement when he heard this. What Zhou Yu said made sense. Even if Gongsun Xu's camp gave him [-] horses, Sun Ce would not be able to spend so much money. Even if he could, the Jiangdong soldiers would basically be poor. I'm wearing pants.

In another place, Guo Jia shook his wine glass at Gongsun Xu, and the two nodded tacitly. At the same time, Guo Jia did not forget to give Gongsun Xu a thumbs up, as if to praise Gongsun Xu's wonderful move.

Perhaps, others will ask, wouldn't it be a loss for Gongsun Xu to sell so many war horses at once.However, there is one thing they don't know.

Gongsun Xu was able to use the gold, silver, grain and grass provided by the princes to take down Hetao within half a year. At that time, most of the cattle, sheep and horses of the Southern Huns would fall into Gongsun Xu's hands. Only the horses, Gongsun Xu calculated, at least , he can also get 50 horses.

For this aspect, Gongsun Xu has long been experienced. When he attacked the eastern part of Xianbei, Gongsun Xu made a fortune. Most of the cattle, sheep and horses in the entire eastern part of Xianbei became Gongsun Xu's pocket. In this way, if you have the ability, you will have money and countless cattle, sheep and horses.

At that time, Gongsun Xu got nearly 70 horses and 300 million cattle and sheep. It was with these gains that Gongsun Xu had the strength to stabilize the eastern Xianbei and Sanhan areas that had just been taken down.

It was also based on these foundations that Gongsun Xu established his own horse farm. Now, Gongsun Xu has a horse farm in Youzhou, Bingzhou, Liaodong, and eastern Xianbei, almost all of which benefited from the Eastern Expedition. Therefore, Gongsun Xu That's why he dared to take everyone's orders so boldly.

Perhaps, in this business, Gongsun Xu will lose a lot, but compared with what he can get from the Southern Huns, the losses of Gongsun Xu can almost be counted as a fraction, but well, these things, I am afraid Few people can figure it out, and when they figure it out, things are basically finalized.

The business negotiations are basically finalized. What Gongsun Xu cares about is actually the business of the war horse. For the rest, the needs of other princes will not be too much for the time being.

For example, military supplies such as blankets, armor, weapons, etc., those produced in northern Xinjiang are indeed much better than those in the hands of other princes, but these are all related to military secrets, and it is impossible for Gongsun Xu to sell them in large quantities.

Even if it is sold, it is only a part of defective products or eliminated items, especially weapons and armor. In the past two years, the level of iron smelting technology and forging technology in northern Xinjiang has been greatly improved, and the armor and weapons in the army are constantly being updated. .

This caused a lot of obsolete military supplies to pile up in the warehouse. If they were not disposed of in time, most of these military supplies would have to be remelted. However, pure remelting is a waste, and Gongsun Xu was very reluctant.

In order to seek greater benefits, Gongsun Xucai focused his business attention on these obsolete military supplies. Although they are obsolete military supplies, the quality and level of these military supplies are comparable to the best military supplies in the hands of other princes. The supplies are almost the same, even those of Gongsun Xu are stronger.

No way, who told Gongsun Xu to play tricks with Emperor Hanling? In order to support the Eastern Expedition, Emperor Hanling ordered to relocate half of the best blacksmiths and blacksmiths in the capital to Youzhou. A small part of the science and technology of the entire Han Dynasty was sent to Gongsun Xu.

Later, after Han Lingdi died of illness, no one cared about this matter. Gongsun Xu took over all the families of these craftsmen and let them settle down in Youzhou completely. After several years of development, the craftsmen under Gongsun Xu The quality and quantity of teachers have been greatly improved.

Last time, when Yan Liang and Huang Zhong led people to escort Dian Wei back, they also attacked Dong Zhuo's troops. While rescuing some refugees, Dian Wei and Zhang Jai, who were smart, deliberately attacked the escorting craftsman's troops This time, Dian Wei and Zhang Jaw brought good luck to Gongsun Xu again.

It can be said that in terms of technological level, Beijiang has already stood at the forefront of the world, and the technology of the entire Dahan has been taken up by Beijiang. This is also the main reason why Gongsun Xu dared to sell military supplies. If you have nothing to do when you have nothing to do, you can shoot the army's things. Isn't this just shooting yourself in the foot? No matter how stupid people are, they can't do this kind of thing.

Seeing that many people are not happy because they didn't get too much advantage in the war horse business, Gongsun Xu will naturally not let these people feel that they are treating each other more favorably. Moreover, Gongsun Xu really can't make any more concessions when it comes to war horses. Otherwise, in the future The war horse business cannot be done.

Hunting can increase the interest of these representatives, Gongsun Xu cleared his throat again and said: "Are you all worried about not being able to buy a large number of war horses?"

Many people looked at Gongsun Xu with wide eyes. They hoped that Gongsun Xu would let go, but Gongsun Xu said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, selling so many war horses at once has actually exceeded Beijiang's expectations. The war horse business really cannot be compromised. Otherwise, my cavalry will become infantry."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the tent immediately burst into laughter. Gongsun Xu did not forget to be humorous at this time, which was very effective in mediating the atmosphere.

At this time, Sun Ce stood up holding his wine glass and said, "The general is joking, even if the general's cavalry becomes infantry, the combat effectiveness will never decrease."

After finishing speaking, Sun Ce drank the wine in his glass and sat down. Gongsun Xu also smiled and said: "Second brother really knows how to flatter, haha. Everyone, the business of war horses is basically like this. If you feel that you have not seized the opportunity If so, let me give you another message."

Everyone pricked up their ears and waited for Gongsun to speak again.

Gongsun Xu deliberately paused for a moment and then continued: "Besides the war horses that the Central Plains does not have, there is one more thing in Northern Xinjiang, which is the best in the world. Everyone, have you ever seen the armor and weapons of Northern Xinjiang soldiers?"

As soon as Gongsun Xu said this, everyone in the tent immediately caused a commotion. They did not expect that Gongsun Xu would sell armor and weapons. The quality of armor and weapons in Northern Xinjiang was indeed the best in the world. None of these generals knew.

When Dong Zhuo was conquered, the weapons in the hands of the Youzhou Army were generally able to cut off the opponent's weapons at once, and even cut the opponent in two. There is nothing to say about the quality, and the defense is definitely the best in the world.

Such good weapons and armor, Gongsun Xu actually planned to sell them. They couldn't figure out if Gongsun Xu was a bit confused. Could it be that Gongsun Xu got a little carried away after he just started the war horse business, or that Gongsun Xu also Is it just that I said the wrong thing for a while?

Everyone is discussing, if what Gongsun Xu said is true, then they will definitely make a lot of money this time, but will Gongsun Xu really do this?
