Financial issues are Hu You’s most headache now. He didn’t find rock salt before, so he had no choice but to tighten his belt and live. Now that he has discovered something like rock salt that is more expensive than gold, Hu You has no reason not to turn it into real gold.

You should know that the Central Plains is in chaos now, coupled with the economic invasion of the Ningnan Empire, the prices of the Mandala Empire are soaring every day. It is difficult to live without money.

The issue of purifying salt is a very small matter. Zhu Daneng and Zhe do not want to go, some people are willing to go. This does not require any profound skills, as long as they are loyal people.

Hu You joined the army for two years, and maybe he can't do anything else. There are still a few loyal people. According to Hong Xian.

After three days of preparation, the first batch of salt finally came out successfully. Now the samples are placed in Hu You's military tent. The white salts are transparent, which makes people feel comfortable. These are all money.

"Sir, they are really the same." Zhebe grabbed the salt and sighed.

"It's not only the same thing to look at, but also the same thing to eat." Hongye brought the wine and food. Today's salt is a good day. Everyone has worked hard during this period. Hu You want to comfort everyone. He specially told Hongye to find a way to make a simple banquet, which is a small meal.

"Everyone, let's try the skills of the female military advisor today." Hu You smiled and called everyone to sit in. These dozen people are Hu You's core team. Yu Luoya, Long Xiyu, and Song Qingshan are not listed here. They have new joining and have not achieved any results yet and cannot be recognized by everyone.

There were two maids who were not maids, Han Yu and Fan Meng. These two beautiful medical soldiers were transferred to Hongye by Hu You, and served as secretary in the Military Committee, specializing in organizing documents within the legion. Because of Hongye's relationship, they can now be regarded as confidants in Hu You's group.

With these two beautiful girls on the table, the atmosphere became much warmer. Hongye is Hu You's woman, and Zhu Daneng and his gang dare not tease her, but they didn't care so much about Hanyu and Fanmeng. They were all old acquaintances, and they were happy and drank some wine. The mouths were not in the door. Those very yellow and violent words would be vomited from time to time, making the two women coquettish.

"Sister Hongye, look at them, they are really worse than the other." Hanyu lay on Hongye's shoulder, acting coquettishly and refusing to support her.

Because Han Yu is relatively cute and her face is prone to blushing, everyone likes to fight her the most.

Hu You next to him smiled with a drunken smile: "Oh, who bullies our little Hanyu? Tell me, I'll help you deal with them."

Hanyu pouted and said, "It's your worst."

"That's it. General Hu You is the worst. I saw him secretly glance at Han Yu's chest just now." Fan Meng, who was on the side, also reported Hu You's evil deeds.

Seeing that he was being pulled up again, Hanyu quickly fought back: "Zhen Fanmeng, he is going to die, and he is talking nonsense. General Hu You is peeking at you, not peeking at others."

"Oh, Xiao Hanyu is jealous." Fan Meng finished speaking in a bad mood, turned around and ran away.

"Hmph, stinky Fanmeng, let's see how others deal with you." Hanyu waved her little fist with a red face, and started to make a joke with Fanmeng.

"Hahaha" a group of men burst into laughter. Although the food was light and the wine was thin, everyone was very happy to eat.

Hu You raised his arms and said, "We have entered a brand new era now. Come, let us raise our glasses and wish tomorrow a better place."

"We want to toast too." Fan Meng and Hanyu, who were laughing, also ran over.

"Dry"

Zhu Daneng wiped the wine stains from his mouth and said, "Hahaha, I was so happy today. Unfortunately, Hou San was not here and there was no such thing as a quarrel, which was a bit unsatisfactory."

Hou San was sent by Hu You to pick up Lu You. Now that the cave city has been decided, it is time to develop a large number of weapons and equipment.

"Hou San is coming back soon?" Hu You threw a peanut into his mouth. In front of these old brothers, he never put on any bad airs. He was still the same as before. Unlike some people, who had some power in their hands, they looked into the sky.

"It's almost there, it should be five or six days before we can come back." Zhu Daneng said. Although he and Hou San kept quarreling every time they sat with him, in fact, their relationship was pretty good. If Hou San had anything to do, Zhu Daneng would definitely be the first person to draw his sword, and the same goes for the other way around.

Hu You nodded and said, "When he comes back, let's have a good meal and help him clean up."

Zhu Daneng clapped his hands and said, "Okay, I still have a few bottles of good wine, and I'll bring it to you when the time comes."

"Then I'll have a chicken."

"I'm out of peanuts"

"I'll go out"

I screamed like a group of people. The conditions in Dongwang City are extremely poor, and sometimes you may not be able to sell things if you have money.

"Hey, Fanmeng, Hanyu, what do you do?" Hu You smiled and turned to look at the two young girls. There was no KTV or singing and dancing here, so you can only use these two girls to have fun.

"We have nothing." Hanyu said with a pair of watery big eyes.

"That's right, your general drinks, but lets us young women give something. Isn't this bullying? General Hu You is the worst and always wants to attack us Hanyu." Fan Meng has a relatively outgoing temper and dares to say anything.

"Oh, why are you talking about her again? Sister Hongye, look at her, you always bully her." Hanyu nodded violently at the beginning, agreeing with Fan Meng's statement. Who knew that Fan Meng's words changed, and then pulled her up again, and screamed in a coquettish manner.

Hongye smiled and waved her hand and said, "Don't call me, I'll ask your General Hu You to help you stand up."

"Sister Hongye is bad, you bully him too." Hanyu said, turning his big eyes, came to Hu You's side, and shouted in a sweet voice: "Brother Hu You, you see, they all bully Hanyu."

Hu You laughed so hard that tears were almost falling, and he sucked in a voice that was about to die, "Don't call me brother, I'm just a legend."

After the meal, Hongye served tea for everyone and took Hanyu and Mengfan to sit down quietly. After eating and laughing, it was time to talk about some serious business.

Hu You took a sip of tea and looked around everyone and said, "Now we have salt, and the next thing is the problem of selling it. Everyone talks about how we should sell this salt so that we can get what we need."

Zhu Daneng suggested: "Sir, what we lack the most now is food and weapons. These two things are available in Baohuai City. We might as well take them there to sell them."

Kochis said, "I don't think it's good. Baohuaicheng has never had any friendship with us. City guard Maze was originally greedy. If he found out that we had a lot of salt in our hands, it might cause some bad water to us."

Kochis has been with Sumadal for a long time and has a deep recession about this human nature. He knows the truth that every man is innocent and bears a treasure. Since Hu You successfully helped him cure his wife Li Yulian's illness, he has been tragic about Hu You, and naturally he thinks about Hu You in everything.

Hongye also agreed with Kochis's opinion: "General Kochi makes sense. With our current strength, it is best not to let others know that we have salt, otherwise we will be in trouble."

Harrison said domineeringly: "He will fight, and we have 50,000 soldiers now. Are we still afraid that they will not succeed?" Now he has 15,000 troops in his hand, and has got rid of his identity as a slave camp. The suppressed blood in his body has revived again. He is the master who even dares to fight his superiors. Don't look at him being silent and silent, his temper is not very good.

Hu You waved his hand and said, "As sooner or later, we will have a battle with Baohuai City. He doesn't care about our salt, I still care about his iron ore.

But now is not the time. War requires money. We have no money now and can only develop the economy. We must develop Dongwangcheng in a short period of time.

Now the population of Dongwang City is too small, only 20,000 people, and the military and civilian ratio is seriously insufficient. This is not conducive to the replenishment of our military source. My ideal is to develop the main city of Dongwang City into a large city with a population of at least 300,000, and the surrounding area of ​​Dongwang City into a large economic zone with a population of over one million. Only in this way can our army be replenished with resources including the military source. At that time, it is not Ma Ze who came to us, but I want to deal with him."

No one expected that Hu You had already made such a big plan in his heart. A large economic zone of over one million can make people excited just by thinking about it.

"But sir, how do we develop the economy? Is it so difficult to rely on salt alone?" Hanyu asked weakly. She couldn't get into the military affairs before, but she was very interested in this economic issue. Girls like to go shopping and buy things, so naturally they have some say.

Hanyu’s problem is also a question that people who sit in their hearts think. Everyone can speak big words, and even if they blow the sky through, it’s nothing great. But just talking, that’s useless. The key is the word “do”, which is actually following the original.

Hu You said: "It is of course impossible to rely on salt alone. We must combine multiple economies to achieve it. Yu Luoya is now trying to plant the animal grass. If he can succeed, then we will take a route of combining multiple economies in the future by raising and selling horses as the leader."

Zhu Daneng asked, "Sir, I'm not pouring cold water on you. What if Yu Luoya's grass cannot be planted or planted, it is not as good as he said, and even if I can't raise a horse?"

Zhu Daneng's words were only in Hu You's team. If he was in another place, he would definitely not dare to say it. The boss just said that he would take horse raising as the leading industry, so you said that horses might not be able to be raised. Wouldn't that slap the leader in the face? The so-called leader is always right, and you should go up to difficulties if there are difficulties. If the leader likes it, just say it is OK, and if it is not OK, it is OK if it is not OK. If the subordinates are not convinced.

Hu You is here to open up the road of communication. He is not only not disgusted with Zhu Daneng's words, but also very happy. Zhu Daneng was born in a noble family and has a little understanding of the economy. He is not pouring cold water on it, but telling the possibility of this.

There is no absolute in everything, and failure can always exist before it is done. Every time you do something, you must not only consider its success, but also consider failure.

Hu You nodded and said, "Zhu Daneng said it very reasonably, and I have also considered this issue. Success is not inevitable. Although I am very confident, I should succeed. If raising horses is not good, everyone should not worry. We still have a way out. Don't forget where Hu San has gone."

Zhu Daneng's eyes lit up and he blurted out: "Are you talking about selling weapons?"

Hu You raised his thumbs up and said, "Smart, I'm not in vain to grow fat."

I believe everyone who lives in this process knows the skills of Master Luyou. Iron ore is produced in Baohuai City, and raw materials are not a problem. This is a path that will inevitably be achieved.”

Hongye frowned and said, "But selling weapons is a very dangerous industry. If the empire traces it up, we will be in trouble."

Hu You nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I ranked this after raising horses. Valencia now ignores us, but no one can guarantee when he thinks of us again. Although the empire is now in chaos, it has not reached the level of total chaos. In these aspects, we still have to be careful. The lower the key, the more beneficial it is to us."

Hu You said here and looked around everyone. The reason why he used the matter of selling salt to tell the issue of horses and weapons was to strengthen everyone's confidence and give them a look that they can have.

Like success, loyalty is not inevitable. Everyone has the right to yearn for a good life. When loyalty is given, they will never get rewards. They always have to have a banquet and have to make up for things. More and more, and those loyalties will slowly disappear. Just like that joke, you can't even eat, so why do you ask others to love you?

"Okay, let's get back to the topic and come back to the issue of selling salt. This is our starting capital. Only by selling salt and getting money, other things can we develop. Whether it is raising horses or building weapons, it is empty talk without money."

"General, where do you plan to sell salt? Are we going to open a store or something? If that's the case, I can be the store manager." Hanyu came out from behind Hongye and said in a sweet voice.

It seems that it is right to transfer them back to the military headquarters. The troops below will soon undergo large-scale and strict military training. If the two of them are still in the troops below, they may not be able to laugh at this time.

Hu You smiled and said, "It's OK to be a store manager. But it's not now. In the near future, I have no plans to open a store. The reason is not in line with our current situation. I want to make a big deal at once."

Zhu Daneng asked: "Sir, do you want to be a big business? The amount of salt is very small. Who are you planning to sell a large amount of salt to?"

Hu You smiled mysteriously and said, "I'm going to ask you this, who do you think can consume a lot of salt?"

"Ask me?" Zhu Daneng frowned. The amount of salt is very small, and it takes a lot of people to consume it. Where is the most people?

Zhu Daneng suddenly thought of a place - the Western Mad Wolf Legion. The Mad Wolf Legion has 200,000 permanent troops, and Lenata has a good relationship with them. Anyway, they always use salt to buy, so who should I buy it?

"I understand." Hu You smiled and said, "I plan to pull 10,000 kilograms in advance and talk to them."

"Ten Thousand Jin" heard Hu You's words, everyone was sitting in the air. The Crazy Wolf Legion only had 200,000 people, and 10,000 kilograms of salt was just a chat. How much does it really cost? A month's supply of 100,000 kilograms? Pickle them all into salted fish?

"Boss, isn't ten thousand pounds a little too much?" Zhu Daneng asked weakly. He knew that Hu You had put his ideas on him again this time.

Didn’t Hu You put his ideas on Zhu Daneng? Lenata last time proposed to get along with him, but he refused. This time he pulled salt over, Lenata might not necessarily give him such face. What Hu You thought of Lenata’s cousin Guan Tianyu, who was Zhu Daneng’s fiancée, asked Zhu Daneng to talk about Passing Guan Tianyu, and then asked Guan Tianyu to talk about Passing Renatta, and then he could start this business.

Hu You said with a smile on his face: "Not much, not much, ten thousand pounds are just the demand of the Mad Wolf Legion for two months, so how can it be considered too much?"

Zhu Daneng's face was bitter: "But the salt used by the Mad Wolf Legion is offered by the Emperor, so they may not necessarily need our salt."

Hu You laughed and said, "That depends on your ability. Lenata counts, but you must have a way out for your cousin."

"General, what is my sister-in-law?" Hanyu asked with confusion.

Hu You explained: "Zhu Daneng's wife is Lenata's cousin, and his wife's sister is sister-in-law. Are not cousins ​​cousins ​​sister-in-law?"

Hanyu giggled: "It's not the general, you've made a mistake. My wife's sister is the sister-in-law, and my wife's sister is the eldest aunt."

"What is it?" Hu You said with a wicked smile.

Hanyu thought Hu You didn't hear clearly, so he raised his voice and shouted, "It's my aunt."

The military tent suddenly became quiet, and everyone held back their laughter and watched Hanyu not speak.

"What's wrong with you?" Hanyu looked at everyone with a blank look on her face. She didn't feel that she was saying something wrong.

Hongye glared at Hu You fiercely, pulled Hanyu and said a few words in her ear.

"Ah!" Hanyu's face turned red and she stomped her feet without hesitation, and turned around and ran out of the military tent.

"Hanyu, why are you running so fast? Did your aunt come here?"
