Chapter 492: Secret Weapon 5/10]

Duke Wei looked at Zhu Yunmo with a mysterious face and was silent. It was obvious that this kid and that Zhou Heng were both scheming kids. It seemed that he was old and it was time to let the children go and make a try.

The Duke of Wei was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"Okay, then you can let go. If someone dares to hinder or raise trouble, I will help you clear the situation. I want to see who can hinder this matter. This is a major event for the development of Daliang, and I must fully support it."

Zhu Yunmo smiled. Everything today was as expected by Zhou Heng, but there was one last thing, I don’t know how to mention this.

There is really no one to trust in the capital city, that is, Yang Junwei is related to him, but this matter is really a merit. If it can be seen by the old emperor, it is really hard and very dangerous.

At this moment, Duke Wei looked at Zhu Yunmo who was a little stunned and asked:

"According to your plan, it is not easy to build a factory in Fujian to ensure both guards and escort work. After all, Fujian and the capital are far apart from thousands of mountains and rivers. If you are not careful, you will easily cause trouble."

Zhu Yunmo was happy, but he still had a sad look on his face and sighed:

"The guard is easy to deal with. Uncle Huang means to send troops to Fujian to guard and escort matters, so naturally, I have to send people from the capital to do it. There is really no suitable candidate. Uncle Huang means to send one of the five military camps to take charge of this matter, but I am also worried about who took the lead but it has not been decided."

When Duke Wei heard this, he stopped immediately, glanced at Duke Wei's wife, then picked up the wine pot and filled a cup of wine for himself and Zhu Yunmo.

"Of course, I have to send trustworthy people to take responsibility. The relationship between the Five Military Camps is extremely complicated. I have a subordinate in the Five Military Camps. However, this escort officer cannot have a high position, too high position, and too eye-catching, nor can he have no prestige. I think Weijun is the most suitable."

The Duke of Wei was stunned and slapped the armrest of the wheelchair and suddenly became restless.

"No, the relationship between the five military camps is complicated. Weijun was injured there before. If he was asked to lead the team out, would you feel at ease if something happened on the way?"

Duke Wei quickly held down his wife, and Duke Wei understood her mood.

"Weijun is my husband's only grandson, how can he not feel sorry for him? However, he grew up under his wings and had to train. Compared to leading troops to fight, this matter is much safer. Even if he meets bandits on the way, he is not a powerful person. I believe he can deal with it.

Besides, he is about the same age as Yun Mo, and Yun Mo is already on his own. Do you want him to live like this in a daze?

We all have a day old, so the Duke of Wei will naturally spread to him. Isn’t it a joke to gain a foothold without military industry records?"

The wife of Duke Wei wanted to speak but stopped, but seeing that Duke Wei had decided, she sighed and said nothing.

Zhu Yunmo held back his laughter and stood up to salute Duke Wei.

"My grandfather is very wise, and I'm relieved if this matter is handed over to Weijun. As for the team, there is no need for too many people, two hundred are enough. The armor and weapons they equipped with and war horses, the emperor said that they were all re-allocated from the warehouse of the imperial guards.

As for salary, Zhou Heng and I have discussed that it is really hard for these people to work outside. In addition to the normal salary, we have also set up two subsidies.

First, the meal travel allowance, each person has only 200 yuan per day for escort; second, the casualties are provided. Any injured person can receive free treatment from Huichuntang. Those who are disabled or die will be paid ten times the military pension standard."

When he heard this, Duke Wei was stunned. He was a soldier. He had been the one who had led the army. How long did these people have to bargain with the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue every year because of food and money? Naturally, they understood that the difficulty was that even if they could get it, it would not be the full amount. It would be good if they got it 60%.

If Zhu Yunmo said that everything is calculated based on silver and money, the loss will naturally be reduced. Two hundred coins and two hundred people a day will require forty taels of silver to be escorted on this day.

It takes more than ten days to walk from Fujian to Beijing even if you are fast, and this one is 600 taels per way, which is simply outrageous!

As for the pension, the injured were unable to work, the army only gave five taels of silver to settle, and only ten taels of death were lost, which was even a sky-high price.

Although it is an extremely good thing for soldiers, the cost is really too high.

"Things are good things. You can choose people in this way easily, but you can bear such a high cost?"

Zhu Yunmo waved his hand and said in a low voice:

"This thing is not only a huge profit, but the trees in the rubber plantation grow naturally. They are everywhere in Fujian. We just ask workers to cut rubber and collect them, and then process them. There is no cost except labor and transportation."

The Duke of Wei nodded suspiciously, "That's good."

Zhu Yunmo didn't stop at all, and then said:

"Besides, this is also an opportunity to give Weijun a training experience. When this matter is working, I don't want him to be responsible for this matter for a long time. Just leave it to my confidant.

Then we have a bigger plan. The design and manufacture of that thing is the sharp blade of the sharp knife, which is invincible. It can spy on military intelligence, sneak attacks, shoots, invades, and many things can be done. That is what I hope Weijun will do."

When the Duke of Wei was intrigued, he quickly got closer to Zhu Yunmo.

If Zhu Yunmo had said this just now, if Duke Wei had left long ago, he believed that Zhu Yunmo and that boy Zhou must have had other plans.

After all, both of them are extremely good at making money, and they are smart enough, and they are all new ideas.

Just talking about military supplies, it can be said that breaking the barriers that have been over the past decades and it is really not easy for the emperor to pay for money.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Zhu Yunmo glanced at the Duke of Wei and burst into laughter.

"In front of my grandmother, I dare not say that my obedient image will be ruined?"

The Duke of Wei spat and looked at the old and young people. It was naturally the happiest thing to see them talking about.

In her opinion, it is best to have a safe and sound grandson. If you can make a fortune, it will certainly be the icing on the cake.

"Okay, don't look at my old woman like that. I'll go back and rest first. Let's have a good chat with you grandfather and grandson!"

Zhu Yunmo did not try to keep him, and pushed the Duke of Wei out of the flower hall. The maids and mothers rushed forward and sent the old lady back. Seeing that there was no shadow, Zhu Yunmo returned to the flower hall, carefully closed the doors and windows, and then returned to the dining table.

Take out a small drawing from your arms, and the above is the sketch of the flying ball. Although it is a sketch, the layout has an overall shape and is still very complete. A ball floats in the air, and under the ball is a basket.

Looking at such a picture, Duke Wei stood up directly, with suspicion on his face, and stared at Zhu Yunmo with wide eyes.

"What's this?"

"Hot air balloons can fly into the sky. This is what we want to develop. It is condescending. Whether it is bows and arrows or artillery, there is almost no threat to this. It is not necessary to patrol the border at all. It can be seen within ten miles of radius.

Especially when attacking or raiding, the effect is extremely terrible. If you want to throw a cannon or a basin of hot oil in the place where the enemy camp gathers, then ignite the fire, how many people can be injured by the opponent? Even if the well-trained team is in chaos, will the troops be arranged in a mess?"

Duke Wei held the drawings and sent them to his eyes for a closer look.

This time I saw it clearly. This is a ball in the air. If a person can fly into the sky, how can the people on this earth do anything? Needless to say, even if they guard the mountain, they can wait for their work, let alone if they go to heaven.

"This thing is really amazing. What you mean is that all of you is just for the sake of this matter. Is this your most powerful secret weapon?"

Zhu Yunmo nodded and grinned, with the mystery on his face even more.
