Datang: Angry at Li Er, he still begged me to come out of the mountain

Chapter 39 How about the price of wool?
"You are talking about the state of etiquette in the Central Plains. You have to type out all the etiquette. You are not being reasonable. What etiquette should I tell you? Etiquette means that my fist is hard. I beat you. I will tell you again. You Give me pilgrimage, give me honest tribute, this is etiquette, etiquette is the rules made by the strong for the weak, you are a weak, you can only survive if you surrender to the strong, this is etiquette."

Hearing Jiang Yunqing's words, Du Ruhui felt that his doubts could be cleared up, "So, the purpose of fighting is to beat our enemies to the ground. The enemy we fight is weak, and we are strong. In the final analysis, it is nothing more than profit, so the most profitable thing in the world is war."

"Yes, there are more than just weapons that can kill people in this world. Cattle and sheep will also eat people when they are extremely hungry. Therefore, war is a beast that kills people without blood. It is people who kill people." Jiang Yunqing said sonorously.

Du Ruhui was stunned immediately, looking at Jiang Yunqing with erratic eyes, not knowing what to say.

He felt that what Jiang Yunqing said was very reasonable. Now Datang is the kingdom of heaven, but one day others will use this method to deal with Datang?
"Is there a way to solve this? How to do it?"

Jiang Yunqing laughed and said: "A slap is a candy, starting a war is a warning, and destroying a country is a show of prestige, but after slapping you, I will give you another candy to raise you up, and I will give you another slap when you grow up. Back and forth, just a few years, you can definitely become the richest man in Tang Dynasty."

Du Ruhui's reputation is definitely not blown out, the role model of all scholars, Fang Mou Duan's name is not built, and he was able to participate in the planning of the Xuanwumen Incident, which is as small and broad as the eternal palace change, Zhenguan Shengshi also missed them. The credit of Wenchen.

From Li Er to Miss Wu, these three generations are simply the pinnacle of civil servants and military generals in the Tang Dynasty.

Du Ruhui had roughly understood what Jiang Yunqing meant, but there was still something he didn't understand. "But in a barren land like the Turks, where there are only cattle, sheep, and horses, what are the benefits you are talking about?" where?"

"These are the advantages of a businessman. Believe it or not, if I were to fight, I would definitely destroy the Turks without a single soldier."

Come on, son-in-law, can this cow not be so big, the cowhide will really break, can the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty be inferior to you alone?No matter how capable you are, you can't compare the civil and military affairs of the Manchu dynasty, can you?
If merchants are so useful, is it still necessary to focus on farming and suppressing merchants?Then everyone should be a merchant, so what kind of officials should they be?
"Yun Qing, please stop showing off. Uncle Du is worried. Please tell Uncle Du first what's going on."

"They don't have any culture and beliefs. In this case, these alien races seem to be unified, but they have their own calculations. There are still many large and small tribes on the grassland who did not follow Jali Khan to attack Datang. If the main force is destroyed, the old and weak women and children on the grassland will be in danger, as well as the countless cattle, sheep and horses, and most importantly, how do you deal with the wool on the grassland?"

Du Ruhui thought for a while, and said: "Every spring, wool is trimmed, but the craftsmanship is not enough, not many can be made into felt, and most of them can only be set on fire."

"That's it, you said, if this battle is over, there will be a warning effect, and you say that if I let another merchant go to the north to buy wool vigorously, and you think the Turks will sell it? Woolen cloth?"

Hearing this, Du Ruhui shook his head.

Jiang Yunqing was taken aback, "Uncle Du, is there something wrong with me? You can't buy wool with a penny?"

"Yunqing, I won't talk about it if it's too far away, it's Datang, any big sheep raising family, if you want, I can give you as much wool as you want for free."

Damn, why didn't you say such a good thing earlier?Jiang Yunqing's eyes widened so wide that he couldn't believe it, he could still stretch out his gloves to white wolf?
What does this mean no money?

If there is no cost for these wools, then go to a factory and sell some woolen sweaters and trousers, and you will be rich in a few years.

But Jiang Yunqing still couldn't believe this set of white wolves, and asked seriously: "Uncle Du, you can't lie to me, those wool, really no one wants it?"

"These things, what is there to lie to you?"

"Then you are also an old businessman, and you have a lot of experience. Can you help me find out how much it would cost to transport wool from the northern border to Chang'an?"

Seeing Jiang Yunqing's serious face, Du Ruhui thought for a while and said, "If I bought it from Er Daozi, I'm afraid it would cost four or five yuan a catty, and I can send it back for you directly, and it's all dry wool. , absolutely no moisture."

Four or five pennies?It's all dry and without moisture, isn't this also a free gift?
Seeing the profiteer-like smile on Jiang Yunqing's face, Du Ruhui immediately became anxious, and said, "Don't tease Uncle Du, tell him quickly, how can you make quick money?"

"If yes, you can have connections in the Ministry of War, I guarantee that as long as the war is over, you will definitely make a lot of money."

"Don't worry about this matter. Several of my old friends are in the Ministry of War. As long as your business can make money, they will definitely help me." Du Ruhui said confidently.

"Uncle Du, if this is the case, I think it would be better if you can meet with the Minister of the Ministry of War through your friend, because the advice I give you is enough for you to ask for a seventh-rank official. There are five grades."

"What, a fifth-rank, seventh-rank official?" Du Ruhui wondered if Jiang Yunqing was talking big, but his face was filled with anticipation.

"Now there are countless tribes in the north. If this battle continues, the Turks will definitely become more divided. When the big tribes continue to become small tribes, if Datang can buy wool at this time, those Turks will see The wool that no one wants has become a treasure, and they will definitely fight for the wool. The big tribes will keep eating up the small tribes. Even if they don’t fight, then we will collect 3000 million yuan this year, and we will collect 6000 million catties next year. In the face of such a huge benefit, can you say that these Turkic people can hold back and not do anything?"

"I understand what you said." Du Ruhui nodded slightly, "If wool is valuable, those big and small tribes will use all their strength to compete for grassland, cattle and sheep, it's like fighting among hungry wolves Throw a piece of fat.
