The old fox still remembers that Wang Xuan said that both places can be north and east, but there was no more to say about the two places. But in the old fox's opinion, this undoubtedly represents the special nature of the two places. Wang Xuan "forgot" at this moment, so he couldn't help but try to take advantage of it.

Now that Wang Xuan emphasized this, Wang Ren immediately understood the special nature of these two counties, so he refused to ask curiously: "These two counties are still separated from the king's rule by the Zhendong Hou Kingdom, why do they have to stay alone?"

"It's okay to tell you. There is a huge iron ore, coal mine and other mineral deposits here. If it goes well, the annual iron output in this place can reach 400 times the annual output of Dahan." Wang Xuan said casually.

"How many!" Wang Renhuo stood up from the chair, his speed was not as fast as someone who needed help. His eyes were as big as a copper bell, and he looked at Wang Xuan with horror.

"I said, don't be so excited, okay? I'm quite old, I'm doing something after all." Wang Xuan was afraid that the old man would be excited and immediately comforted him.

"Why are there so many?" Wang Ren sat down slowly, the shock on his face still could not be concealed.

"How is it?" Wang Xuan raised his eyebrows. He didn't know how much Angang produced annually, but it was definitely more than one million tons. By the way, small steel plants with annual output of one million tons are all in the ranks of bans.

"Not much!" Looking at Wang Xuan's indifferent look, Wang Ren really wanted to smash it with an old punch, so arrogant.

"Okay." Wang Xuan waved his hand indifferently, "Why do you say this? The output is related to your Wang family. Try those idle things and talk about your important things!"

"Uh..." Wang Ren smashed his mouth and suddenly felt very pitiful. He felt better than the heads of those aristocratic families yesterday. He felt that he was superior to others. Unexpectedly, he was hit as soon as he turned around. Alas, the situation was still too small.

"So, Zaizhi agreed to help." Wang Ren continued to ask after eased his emotions.

"It's okay, it depends on what you can't afford." Wang Xuan doesn't care about this, and it can be considered a revenue generation. Moreover, relying solely on himself to expand his territory, he really cannot exert all his strength. He can fully mobilize the power of the elite class of this era to maximize his interests. No matter what, he is a vassal state, under the jurisdiction of the Han Dynasty, and has close luck.

"What does my Wang family need to pay? Please tell me clearly. After all, this is the first time to create the world, and I don't understand the key points."

"It's nothing more than cost and benefits. Cost is logistics supplies, equipment loss, war pension, time consumption, and the rest is profit. To meet these two points, it is not a big problem to help without delaying the serious business." Wang Xuan said casually.

"I can bear the loss of materials, equipment, and war pensions from the Wang family. How can I calculate the consumption of this time? In addition, I don't know the benefits, so I can just pay for it. I trust it. The three-year land of Langya County belongs to my Wang family. There are also some other counties in Xuzhou, so it is enough to pay for it." Wang Ren's answer was very straightforward. If he could ask Liu Bei's army to take action, it would be much smaller than that of doing it himself.

Wang Xuan sighed and said to the words "Wang in Langya". He was really not good at asking for a price. He had a detailed talk with Wang Ren, and promised to help build cities, main roads, water conservancy facilities, defensive buildings, large industrial and mining plants and other things. After Wang Ren was satisfied, he took his two grandsons away.

Today, Wang Ren has gained a lot. With Wang Xuan’s promise, it can be said that the founding of the country is almost certain, and he can skip the weakest period and directly enter the stage of rapid development, which makes Wang Ren’s ambition burn one step closer.

As for the efforts, basically, the Wang family has accumulated a total of 80% of the family business over the past four hundred years, but in Wang Ren's opinion, everything is worth it. At least Wang Xuan said that it is a plain, and the area of ​​developed fields is ten times that of the Wang family!

In other words, there is such a relationship, if it were other families, it would be impossible not to say ten times or three times.

Wang Ren, who received a satisfactory reply from Wang Xuan, was very confident. He turned around and started to contact the heads of a large family in Hebei. Not to mention how Wang Ren was pretending and bragging, Wang Xuan also talked to Liu Bei and others on the other hand.

Wang Xuan no longer participated in the specific administrative work. This time he went out to take charge as a regulator, and on the other hand, he also had other plans.

In the small conference room, Wang Xuan said to a group of people responsible for copywriting work in the Northern Expedition: "All the logistics work in this Northern Expedition is contracted to you by the noble families. We only need to specify the time, place, and quantity and types of materials. When it is given, the money will be given, and the punishment will be less than three times."

⊙▽⊙, everyone stared at Wang Xuan in a daze. What's the fucking operation?

Logistics work has always been the most important in a battle. After all, if there is a problem with food and grass, the defeat on the front line is certain. In a battle, the most terrifying tactics have never been water attack or fire attack, but food outages.

Cao, the wife of the maniac who lost food, has a strong say in this regard.

Wang Xuan's decision is tantamount to turning the security of the army into a joke. If nothing is too bad, he will be about to trap the army in destruction.

"I don't agree. Soldiers are major issues of the country. How can we entrust them to a group of businessmen?" Tian Feng jumped up without thinking, his head shaking like a rattle. Although the others here were not as intense as Tian Feng, they nodded in agreement.

Wang Xuan rolled his eyes fiercely, and he knew that Tian Feng was about to jump out, "Yuan Hao, you should be more careful!"

"Can I say such things for no reason?"

Tian Feng looked at Wang Xuan solemnly, then nodded heavily, "Can you!"

"Damn!" Tian Feng's words made Wang Xuan feel heartbroken. No wonder this guy died in prison in history with such ability. His personality is so terrible.

"Shut up." Wang Xuan was also angry, glaring at Tian Feng fiercely before continuing: "For this Northern Expedition, the logistics needs are either within our control or need sea transportation, and there is basically no possibility of threatening the food supply. So I decided to contract it out, which can effectively reduce the consumption of our army and mobilize the enthusiasm of participants. Taking this as an opportunity, in the future, the transportation of less dangerous materials within our army's sphere of influence will be entrusted to merchants to reduce logistics consumption. Only when fighting outside and when it is very dangerous will it be transported by yourself."

After Wang Xuan finished explaining, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. This would be a big problem. Indeed, it is indeed better to hand over the materials to those aristocratic families than to deliver them. As a local snake, they simply do not need to transport many materials and can directly exchange them in other aristocratic families. This kind of convenience is not something that the government can do.

Seeing that everyone was quiet, Wang Xuancai continued: "In addition, it is also beneficial to have merchants follow him. In terms of cleaning the battlefield and seizing materials, merchants have a natural advantage. This Northern Expedition to the grassland will inevitably seize a large number of cattle, horses, sheep and other livestock. There are countless other Hu people's daily necessities. During the battle, our army was unable to deal with these spoils. Most of the time, it was directly slaughtered and dealt with in order not to be reused by the enemy. The waste caused was countless."

"If there are merchants following you, you can hand them over to deal with it directly. Our army only needs to pay money directly from those merchants after the war. This will not only greatly reduce the workload of the combat troops abroad, but also greatly reduce the loss of war. If everything goes well, it is very likely that this Northern Expedition will not only not require a penny, but also a large amount of income to fill the treasury."

"This Northern Expedition will be an exploration, exploring a new path for military-civilian cooperation. In the future, the grassland will not be a border problem, but a landlord used to maintain our army's combat effectiveness and harvest regularly. Well, it needs to be well cared for!" After saying that, Wang Xuan spread his hands at everyone.

A strange silence fell into the hall. Everyone, including Liu Bei, had no idea how to express their mentality at this moment. Excited? Happiness? Not exactly... Although the grassland was suffering from scabies, this thing was as disgusting as a toad, and it was very annoying to bite from time to time.

But Wang Xuan's idea was strange and felt that it might not be impossible to achieve.
