Chapter 177 The Commercial Kingdom

(Tenth update)

Li Xian generally doesn't bother to pay attention to people who talk like this without thinking—well, Li Xian has also gotten rid of the vulgar taste before he knows it.

But right now, Li Xian has a "smile" on his face, "Yes, it was reckless at the beginning; the correct way should be to submit it to the third division for interrogation, presumably..."

"Ahem..." Wang Chuan hurriedly interrupted Li Xian's words. Back then, if Wang Ming was really handed over to the third division for interrogation, he didn't know how much trouble would be caused.

Wang Chuan paused for a while, "I have received my nephew's wishes. I also heard that there is something called artillery in Anyang. I don't know..."

Li Xian said without hesitation, "Uncle, because of the changes, this year's Industrial Expo will be held in the former Zhongshan County Government Office and outside Dingshan City in a month's time. At that time, there will be not only artillery, but also locomotives, spiritual Stones, weapons of war, steel, sea soul silk, oil products for machinery industry, formed wheels, weapons and armor, etc.

The prices are very affordable. When Li Xian returns to Anyang, he will send invitations to his uncle. "

"Can you tell me the approximate price?"

"500,000 taels of gold for spirit stones, 200 taels of gold for cannons, 100 taels of gold for locomotives, and three taels of gold for a cannonball. The magic weapons of war are captured from Cai Guo. As long as they can be driven away, they will be given away for free. Sea soul silk, weapons and armor Original price of steel and so on.

High-precision formed wheels, steel rings, bearings, etc., start from one tael of silver. "

Wang Chuan listened quietly, and when Li Xian finished speaking, he suddenly asked, "Can I make a reservation?"

Li Xian was taken aback, "Uncle really posed a problem for Li Xian; but since uncle has already asked, Li Xian can't refuse. What does uncle want to book?"

"Cannon, 100 seats, 150 mm caliber. And related shells, locomotives, etc."

Li Xian narrowed his eyes. It seems that the artillery has indeed attracted widespread attention. But he replied: "Uncle, Li Xian doesn't want to go around in circles, the artillery we sell this time only has three calibers: 47mm, 57mm and 105mm.

Good stuff, always keep it for yourself. "

But Wang Chuan did not give up, "Nephew, I can swear that this 150mm caliber will never fire at home, but to defend against foreign countries. How about I join hands to protect the Great Xia Kingdom?"

You said to protect the Great Xia Kingdom, what else can I do, I can't continue to refuse! Li Xian rolled his eyes, he really wasn't the opponent of these old foxes. At the moment, Li Xian had no choice but to let go, but all 150mm artillery can only be used externally, not internally. This point still has to be sworn.

After discussing for a long time, Wang Chuan personally sent Li Xian to the gate in the end. He was so enthusiastic that Li Xian was so terrified.

After coming out of Wang's house, he walked around to Zhang Guang, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs; Zhang Quan shouted happily, "My dear brother, you are here, my brother has been waiting for you for a long time; this morning, my father asked me to come here." Wait here."

Waiting early in the morning? They are all old foxes, Li Xian's heart is churning. "Long time no see, ah, brother Zhang has also reached the foundation building period? It's really gratifying! Waiting for tonight, younger brother toast to elder brother."

"It's easy to talk about, but it's no match for my younger brother. Let's go, my father has been waiting for a long time."

After entering the door, Zhang Yuan enthusiastically recruited Li Xian; after seeing the gift, he became even more enthusiastic. But Zhang Yuan is better than Wang Chuan, Wang Chuan can only negotiate with Li Xian in person; Zhang Yuan pushes the matter to his son Zhang Quan.

Zhang Quan opened his mouth and asked for a large number of bearings, just now, sea soul silk, and even artillery.

Li Xian understands that the current Zhang Quan is serving the First Prince; but the current Anyang County is no longer the Anyang "county" of the past, and is already qualified to do arms trading. Li Xian immediately expressed that he is willing to open the supply to a limited extent. This is not urgent, and we will discuss it in detail tomorrow.

After dawdling for a while, Li Xian finally arrived at the General's house, but Shangguan Yong was waiting at the gate early.

In the end, Li Xian could only sigh with emotion: The wisdom of these high-ranking people is by no means inferior to that of ordinary counselors; it should be said that these high-ranking officials are actually the counselors of the emperor and the country, without the ability, they really cannot sit in this position.

Like Zhang Yuan, Shangguan Guang warmly received Li Xian, and then asked Shangguan Yong to communicate with Li Xian. Now the Shangguan family has taken refuge in the Wang family, or the third prince's faction.

Relying on his similar age, Shangguan Yong finally got straight to the point after talking about a few ordinary words, "My dear brother, there are three princes now. Needless to say, the eldest prince, for his own rights and desires, he caused a disastrous defeat to the Imperial Forest Army and finally ruined Daxia." China's ZTE hope. Therefore, the First Prince is not reliable.

And the second prince, who is the current prince, heard that he was tricked several times by the virtuous brother? How about it, does it feel like playing a prince? "

Li Xian squinted at Shangguan Yong, "I just acted in accordance with the rules and maintained His Majesty's majesty."

"Okay, okay, brother, what is your expression? Brother, you see that the first prince is not good enough, the second prince is not good enough, and there is only one third prince who is qualified to inherit the throne. What do you think?"

"I think you've planted grass in your head, can we discuss the matter of the prince!" Li Xian directly stuffed back Shangguan Yong's intention of soliciting and wooing.

Winning failed! Brother Xian, his brain is turning fast! Shangguan Yong sighed in his heart. Originally, according to ordinary people's thinking, Li Xian would definitely say something like: The third prince has not grown up yet. For this, Shangguan Yong has prepared countless means. But it never occurred to me that Li Xian cut the mess with a sharp knife - we can't discuss this.

After a short pause, Shangguan Yong raised his head and looked at the sun, "Oh, it's already noon, brother, please stay and have some lunch before leaving."

The lunch was very simple, just an ordinary family dinner, quite warm; when it was about to end, Shangguan Guang asked seemingly casually, "I heard that my nephew wants to build a business kingdom? I don't know what kind of kingdom this is?"

But Li Xian understood that this was not a casual question, and he replied cautiously: "Uncle laughed, it was just a little arrogant idea. What I want to build is not a kingdom. The business kingdom is just a slogan. This is an unrealistic existence." , a social structure that exists only in consciousness.

The core of this structure is industry and commerce.

No matter what, everyone cannot do without industry and commerce. Li Xian's idea is that if I can combine businessmen from all over the world to create a prosperous industry and commerce, then maybe it will be a good way out. This kind of business kingdom should be said to be a joint meeting of all businessmen in the world. "

Said so on the surface, but in Li Xian's heart, there are two more words "it's strange". My business kingdom is dictatorship and monopoly business; after all, the slogan of "United Conference" is not bad!

Obviously, Li Xian's statement is still a bit arrogant. Shangguan Guang will not believe it all, but he also believes part of it, because this idea is indeed very feasible. "I wonder if we can become a member of the joint assembly?"

"Uncle was joking. Isn't Shangguan Yong in charge of the transactions between Brilliant Stars Trading Company in the southeast of Great Xia Kingdom and Qi Kingdom?"

"Haha, come, nephew, let's go together."
