I'm playing tricks in Daqin

"Wait?"

"What? You're not satisfied with cutting off your left hand, okay, I'll chop off your right hand right now!"

"Forget it, you can't eat your hands, what's the use of holding them, Ma Minjun, let's go, the orphanage is about to start construction, and there are still many things to be busy."

Ma Minjun, who didn't like Lentibu at all, didn't even look at him, and followed him away, leaving Lundib alone gnashing his teeth.

After lunch, Ling Kongzi was about to take a nap, closed the door of the study, and lay leisurely on the soft couch.

Ling Kongzi had just closed his eyes and felt sleepy when he didn't know who knocked on the door.

"you are?"

Zhang Jinying hurried up and handed Ling Kongzi his business card, "Hi, I'm from a brick kiln, and I want to tell you about our blue bricks."

"we do not need."

"I know, you will definitely reject me when I say this, but since I can come here and recommend it to you, there must be a reason."

"We have special supplies, so we don't need to look for them."

"What about the price? I can guarantee that the price offered by your supplier will not be as good as mine."

Zhang Jinying looked at Ling Kongzi firmly.

"We have been cooperating for a long time now, and there have been no problems, so we have not considered changing suppliers yet."

"Well, Master Dao, please give me some more time, what I say next will definitely be beneficial to you."

Zhang Jinying's swearing appearance made Ling Kongzi feel at a loss. He didn't know what Zhang Jinying's real intention was. He had already made it so clear. Zhang Jinying was still insisting on it, so Ling Kongzi suddenly became curious.

"I think what I just said has been very clear. I wonder if there is anything else you don't understand?"

"Let's talk about business, I want to say, no matter who your regular supplier is, we can discuss it, first listen to our products, if you think my products are really not satisfactory, then I will give up gone."

Ling Kongzi nodded helplessly, it seemed that if he didn't finish speaking, he wouldn't be able to sleep this afternoon.

"Then tell me."

Ling Kongzi was going to give him half a stick of incense. If Zhang Jinying still wouldn't move him within this half stick of incense, then he would have nothing to say.

"That's right, the biggest advantage of our blue bricks is actually the quality."

Zhang Jinying paused for a moment, and Ling Kongzi quickly guessed what he wanted to say next, and the quality must be bragging.

"Our quality is actually average."

Zhang Jinying continued.

Ling Kongzi used to drink water from a teacup. Hearing what Zhang Jinying said, he almost didn't choke himself. He looked at him in confusion, "What is average quality? Are you sure you just said average quality?"

Ling Kongzi doubted his ears a little bit. Are you sure that the quality he said just now is of average quality?

If you were an ordinary person, regardless of whether the quality is good or not, you must say that your quality is good.

"Yes, that's right. What I said just now is that the quality of our green bricks is average. I will tell you everything. Because the quality of the green bricks is average, the cost is low."

Zhang Jinying looked at Ling Kongzi seriously.

Ling Kongzi laughed loudly, so there are still such stupid people, "You are really ridiculous, can quality be considered an advantage in general? Are you really stupid or do you think I am a fool?"

Zhang Jinying also smirked a few times, "I knew you would laugh at me. In fact, things are like this now. If the quality is too good, the cost will be high, and then your profit points will be very little, and Others don’t know whether something is good or bad, they only care about the price, and the competition is so fierce in the market now, if you don’t fight on price, how can you replace your competitors?”

What Zhang Jinying said is true. Ling Kongzi has been having a headache before, how can he lower the price and expand profits, but he has never had a reasonable method. What Zhang Jinying said just woke him up. It turned out that it was the cost. There was a problem.

"Oh?"

Ling Kongzi suddenly became interested.

"We have to find a way to save money from the source. Although the quality of our blue bricks is not very good, it is not bad. I can use my personality as a guarantee for this. Don't worry."

Ling Kongzi nodded, signaling Zhang Jinying to continue.

"As long as we can reach a cooperation, I will give you a high kickback at that time. Of course, if you have money, you have to put it in your own pocket."

After Zhang Jinying finished speaking, Ling Kongzi was a little moved, "Are your blue bricks the same as ours? Are you sure there is no problem?"

While Ling Kongzi wanted to make money, he was also worried that the quality would not be up to standard. Then he would really lose his wife and lose his army.

"Don't worry, the blue bricks provided by the previous suppliers are actually not much different from ours, but they earned all the money themselves, and let you make a little money. I came here with sincerity this time. I hope We can benefit together in the future.”

After speaking, Zhang Jinying took out a thick envelope, and he stuffed it to Ling Kongzi. As the leader, Ling Kongzi naturally shied away for a while, "Zhang Jinying, it's wrong for me to do this, and I can't make mistakes."

Zhang Jinying knew that Ling Kongzi was talking ironically, so he stuffed the envelope in Ling Kongzi's pocket, and then pretended that nothing happened, "I think you must be a smart person, there must be no need for me to do everything in this." More to say, only the two of us know about this matter, and the meeting was a bit abrupt just now, these are just small thoughts, as long as we cooperate, everything that follows will be the basis for our future cooperation."

Ling Kongzi accepted Zhang Jinying's red envelope, and his heart was already in turmoil. However, driven by desire, he was also a little worried, worried that all this would be like a castle in the air. After all, the previous partner had cooperated for so many years, and there was no problem at all. When you find a partner, you must first give an explanation to your superiors and subordinates, and secondly, you must give an explanation to the outside world.

"Can you really guarantee that your things will not have any problems?"

Ling Kongzi is still a little worried, making money is naturally the main thing, but he doesn't want to waste all his hard work just because of the money.

Zhang Jinying nodded, "Don't worry, there must be no problem. We have cooperated with others many times. If I hadn't heard from friends that your price is high, I would have thought our price was high. If you switch to our blue bricks, your price will be reduced by [-]%, of which [-]% will be given to you, don’t you really feel attracted to such benefits?”

It seems that Zhang Jinying came prepared, he even learned about the situation in the market in advance, Ling Kongzi nodded, "You are right, I am tempted, I naturally want to earn this money, but I have to Repeatedly make sure that there is no problem with your blue brick, I don't want you to drag the back."

Ling Kongzi straightened his chest, patted his chest and promised, if I remember correctly, this is Zhang Jinying's promise several times, "Don't worry, I can guarantee that the quality of my blue bricks will never show any problems. Question, if something really goes wrong, you can ask me."

Ling Kongzi nodded, he touched his pocket, it was bulging, and he was very satisfied, "Okay, hurry up and supply the goods, I'll take care of it here."

After seeing off Zhang Jinying and calculating his own gains for a while, Ling Kongzi's face beamed with joy.

Nowadays, a lot of bricks and stones are needed to strengthen the various shops. Not only the doors and windows must be sealed with green bricks, but even the walls are at least two layers of green bricks to strengthen the houses. Difficult.

"Ling Kongzi, you made a lot of money this time."

The sudden voice from behind scared Ling Kongzi almost to his knees.

"Second, Second Senior Brother, you, why are you here?"

"You really don't want me to come? It's my job to transform all the shops into street forts. Do you dare to cut corners and plan to kill me?"

Ling Kongzi didn't say anything and didn't expect that he was so unlucky that he was caught right after he got a chance to make money.

"How can it be, Second Senior Brother, no matter how poor the quality of the green bricks is, they are still green bricks, and they are stronger than adobe. Besides, it's hard to say whether those street fortresses will be used at that time. Forget it, as long as we can survive, why should we have trouble with Yin Zi?"

Seeing that Wu Yuguang stopped talking, Ling Kongzi naturally understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "Zhang Jinying said that the profit will be [-]%, of which [-]% is for you."

Chapter 709

"It's my honor to work for the second senior brother. Naturally, I can't ask for money, but there are still some brothers below who can't keep their mouths shut if they don't give money."

Wu Yuguang had long understood that Yao Sixiao was the most important thing in Tianshi's heart. If he went through the formal process, Yao Sixiao would definitely be the one to succeed him in the future.

Wu Yuguang forced Ma Chuan'an to marry his daughter to him in order to use the name of the Marquis of Wenyang to draw Jiugui from the former Tang Dynasty to his side and strengthen his own strength.

Unexpectedly, stealing a chicken would not lead to loss of rice, Ma Minjun did not marry, and he became the most wanted criminal in Jinghuai County in a daze. Before the rebellion, he was not allowed to appear in public, and he would become a laughingstock in the church. Now there is a chance to make money , naturally can not let go.

"Money is a good thing, but you have to remember that quality should also be paid attention to."

"Yes, second senior brother, don't worry, at most it's a little bit close, and there will never be a big problem."

While talking, Ling Kongzi smiled and handed over the benefits he had just obtained.

That's what he said, but he didn't think so in his heart. If Wu Yuguang didn't know, it would be fine. Now that Wu Yuguang knows, he has swallowed up all the benefits of the green brick business. Isn't his busy work in vain?

Anyway, I still need wood and stone, so go ask Zhang Jinying, as long as you can get money, who cares about the quality.

To put it bluntly, even if the street forts that cut corners were breached one by one by the Qin army due to quality problems, the unlucky people guarding the street forts would die inside.

They are all dead, who knows whether the street fort was destroyed under the onslaught of the Qin army, or because of quality problems?

Tianshi could never have imagined that the street fort strategy they worked so hard to lay out was directly turned into a tofu project because of some people inside.

At this time, he was looking at a large open space in front of him with a mocking face, a big battle was about to be staged here.

"Village chief! Something is wrong, Xiahe Village has surrounded us with more than 1000 villagers!"

When Gao Zhonghong heard this, he immediately set up his crutches, "It's unreasonable, you dare to provoke us openly, do you really think we are easy to bully? Call our people to go out and fight together!"

Even though Gao Zhonghong is already in his sixtieth year, he still looks hale and hearty, walking even faster than the young people in the village.

"I come!"

Gao Zhonghong beat the drum himself to boost morale. The people in the village heard the sound of the drum and gathered at the gate of the village in a short while. waiting outside.

"Hey, I heard that you led your villagers to surround my village? You old guy, you don't honestly enjoy farming at home, you come here to find trouble."

Gao Zhonghong waited for Li Daze dissatisfied. The two villages have always been incompatible, but now because of some farmland ownership issues, it is more like a needle point.

"Who are you scaring? Since you are here today, I must show you some color. Let me tell you, you Gaojia Village people are not our opponents at all. We have more than 2000 people."

Hearing that Xiahe Village had finished speaking, Gao Zhonghong hurriedly turned his head to look at his people, and found that most of them were old and weak women and children. The men had all gone out to work, leaving only some who could not do heavy work.

"Village chief, why don't we give in? After all, we don't have an advantage in numbers."

"What nonsense! Although we are not their opponents, our momentum must not lose! Do you want Shimokawa to ride on our heads all the time?"

After being scolded by Gao Zhonghong, one of the villagers became honest. Gao Zhonghong knew that the most important thing for them at this moment was to work together, so he turned around and encouraged the villagers: "Everyone listen to me, I know that you are afraid Yes, but thinking about how we have been bullied by Xiahe Village these days, can you swallow this bad breath?"

The villagers of Gaojia Village exchanged with each other, and some people raised their fists and responded angrily: "Even if you fight to the death today, you don't want to take this bad breath!"

"Very good, take up your weapons now, take what you have, even if we fight to the death today, we will not let the people of Xiahe Village look down on us, we are determined not to spoil them! We have to prove it with actions, we It's not easy to bully!"

After Gao Zhonghong said this, the villagers in Gaojia Village raised their hoes or shovels one after another, some young children held rolling pins in their hands, and everyone had more or less weapons in their hands.

The village chief of Xiahe Village took a look, and originally wanted to scare them, but he didn't expect that the villagers of Gaojia Village were already ready to fight. In this case, he didn't need to talk nonsense.

"Folks, today we will deal a heavy blow to the villagers of Gaojia Village who don't know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth! Let them realize that whoever dares to oppose us in the future will seek their own death!"

After speaking, the villagers of Xiahe Village rushed into Gaojia Village like a swarm, and the two sides immediately fell into a scuffle.

They were not well-trained soldiers at first, but when they mixed together, they desperately hit with hoes or hammers in their hands, and some even drew circles in the air, without hitting the opponent's vitals at all, they were hit on the head with a hammer .

The villagers who were beaten red-eyed began to fight desperately. Some felt that the weapons in their hands were not useful, so they rushed over and threw them on the ground, and then pressed them on their bodies and began to scratch their faces with their fingernails. It's all bloodstains.

The women wrestled together, screaming endlessly. They tore each other's hair. Pieces of hair and blood could be seen on the ground. Some women slapped each other hard, while others bit their teeth and feet Kick, there are all kinds.

Even so, the villagers of Gaojia Village suffered from the small number of people.

The villagers of Xiahe Village looked like hungry wolves. The men were strong and powerful, and they kept waving the hoes in their hands. Some of them beat the villagers of Gaojia Village rushing forward with sticks.

"Village Chief, our people have suffered a great loss! They are not their opponents at all!"

Gao Zhonghong stood behind anxiously. He saw the villagers of Gaojia Village being beaten up one by one by the villagers of Xiahe Village. , and even some eyes were swollen like eggs.

Even so, these people are still desperately resisting them.

"Damn it, it's really deceiving!"

Gao Zhonghong was furious, so he grabbed the pitchfork from the villagers next to him and prepared to fight in person, but was persuaded by the villagers to come back.

"Village Chief, you must not take risks!"

Everyone saw that he was old, so how could he fight in person?

"Today I have to set an example for everyone. I made the villagers stand up and resist. Now that we are being beaten and retreating, I must rush forward to cheer everyone up!"

Although this is a matter between two villages, the situation at the scene is no more serious than that on the battlefield. Everyone is really red-eyed. Several villagers have been beaten to death on the ground, but the more this is the case, the more these people become It is to fight them desperately, as long as they enter the boundary of Gaojia Village, the villagers of Xiahe Village cannot go out at will.

This is the obsession in the hearts of the villagers of Gaojia Village. They must do their best to guard their homes.

Therefore, Gao Zhonghong rushed up to fight Xiahe Village himself. The village head of Xiahe Village saw it and rushed in himself. He and Gao Zhonghong tore up, and the people on both sides worked harder.

The two sides have been confronting each other for nearly two sticks of incense, and more than half of the villagers in Gaojia Village have been injured. They were originally old and weak women and children. Some mothers did not hesitate to fight with their lives in order to protect their children.

The messy scene was full of screams, crying of children, and blood all over the place.

In the end, Gaojia Village was not Xiahe Village's opponent. The two of them fought against each other, even if they tried their best, they were not opponents at all.

"Village Chief, let's retreat quickly, people will die if this continues!"

Several villagers escorted Gao Zhonghong to retreat. Gao Zhonghong couldn't swallow this breath at first, but seeing that many people could no longer hold on, it would be meaningless for him to hold on any longer, and it would only increase casualties.

"Tell the folks that we will stop fighting."

After speaking, the villagers of Gaojia Village were about to retreat, but the people of Xiahe Village saw that they had the intention of retreating, and instead chased them relentlessly. Just like this, Gaojia Village has already retreated a long way.

"Okay, let's stop chasing."

The village head of Xiahe Village watched with satisfaction that Gaojia Village, who had been beaten so embarrassingly, began to retreat, and finally wiped the sweat from his head. They also suffered heavy losses in this battle. It's not that Gaojia Village can't bear it, and they don't know how many casualties they will suffer.

After all, it was an armed fight between two villages, not two armies. After one side voluntarily surrendered and retreated, the other side would not pursue. The "battlefield" gradually calmed down, and not only Tianshi, but also Li Wei.

"Your Majesty, I didn't expect the Qin people to be so fierce."

Li Renhe said with emotion.
