Chapter 171 The main business (continued)

Huaihuang Dongkuo, Mashibian, Wubei store, Yu Dou and his followers are inspecting goods. Only those with licenses (licenses) can enter and trade in this place.

The goods they inspected were all kinds of weapons and armor.

Yu Dou ordered three hundred collars, armor, and martial arts corresponding to three hundred people here, and the price was not cheap.

Not to mention the Sky Thunder that only "certified holders" can buy (there are restrictions on quantity), no matter how expensive it is, you have to buy some.

In addition, the "rest settlement fee" after the death of a person (betted in the money house) and the cost of hiring personnel, the sum of it is a huge amount of money.

If these investments are regarded as principal, the profit earned after trading can be several times.

The premise is that "buying and selling" are done.

Yu Dou and his followers carefully checked the weapons and armor, and did not dare to be careless. After all, they spent a lot of money, not rags picked up by the roadside.

Some followers saw the scene of armor trading for the first time, and they were uneasy.

If armor was a forbidden item in the past, how could it be sold as a commodity? But now, I don’t know if the court is short of money or doesn’t care, so it has become a relative armor in the border area and has been lifted.

In this way, the armor will inevitably flow into the people in large quantities, which will lead to a sharp decline in public security situations in various places.

The robbers who block the road have armor, horse thieves who are wandering around, and armor. Those strong sects who live in clans must stock up on their own privately and use them if necessary.

And those poor grassland tribes will also get some armor and rob the border areas in the future, becoming more and more fearless.

How can this last?

Of course, the caravans who enter the grassland to do business and teams like them always need to have armor to protect their bodies so that people can be more determined.

Perhaps, the court made such a decision by weighing the pros and cons.

Before he knew it, half a day passed, Yu Dou was busy and finished inspecting the goods with his followers. Then he locked the wooden box, sealed it, and locked it in the warehouse of the Wubei store.

This is a rule. Even if the government sells armor, it is not allowed to be wandering around the city.

So after each caravan buys armor here, unless he takes it out immediately (out of the city), he must be locked in the warehouse of the martial arts store.

It's considered a deposit, no charges are available for the time being.

After Yu Dou and his entourage finished their work, they went out, but they saw the sun setting and the day was about to pass.

He walked on the street, looking at the passers-by, and then looked up at the scarlet sunset, full of confidence.

In the long-term development of border trade, it is of course very profitable to do business, but how can there be robbery and huge profits in catching slaves?

The Turks were just Rouran's slaves back then. If the Turks were all focused on doing business, how much money would they make? Can they buy most of the grassland?

But the Turks chose to rebel and fight. Once they won, they had everything!

Therefore, Yu Dou was not satisfied with being a rich man. It happened that the court implemented various new policies to survive the grassland. So he rode the wind and pulled up a team of hundreds of people to go deep into the grassland, and robbed those tribes that did not surrender.

After plundering property, the livestock was directly resold to the "our tribe" grazing nearby, and the women and children were brought back.

Beautiful, healthy women keep them, others, and sell them to the merchants.

This is Yu Dou's business, which is his main business. He has been doing it for a year last year and has gained a lot. He has made money back with capital and profits, and continues this year.

He understood that "Yamen" was actually a short time ago. The newly opened business names and new tribes will sooner or later become familiar with each other.

He is not greedy for the commissions that the Teenager matches up the business, but wants to develop connections, build credit, and make his reputation as soon as possible.

We must not only become "one of our own people" with the tribe chief, but also form friendships with various businesses to make others believe in their abilities and credit.

In this way, he led his team to wander on the grassland. When he was looking for a target, he could ask for useful information from other tribes.

As long as you can be well-informed, you can come and go freely whether it is a sneak attack, retreat or break through.

Moreover, there are many tribal chiefs I know, and after robbing on the grassland, it is convenient to resell livestock nearby.

Otherwise, if you encounter a strange tribe temporarily, the other party will be wary of it. It may not work if you want to get close to it, let alone "selling stolen goods" and inquire about the news?

After returning from the robbery and returning to the border town, you have to sell the prisoners at hand to the store. If you are old friends with the shopkeeper of the store, it will always be much more convenient and you can get rid of it as soon as possible.

After all, I have to eat and drink every day, which is also a expense.

In addition, he has a military position. If he can be well-informed and obtain key news, he will have the opportunity to make great contributions. If he makes great contributions, he will be promoted.

The key news can be that the Turkic officials went to, or that the Turkic people were gathering...

This kind of news is very important and precious, but it cannot be bought. If you want to rely on continuous investigation to obtain it, you may not be able to hear any sound of the wind even if you run away.

Therefore, Yu Dou should use the tribes grazing around the grassland to pay attention to the wind and grass movements on the grassland.

The "main business" he planned for himself was to lead the horse team to wander around the grassland, rob and catch slaves, so as to continuously accumulate funds and expand the team.

By the way, he spyed on all kinds of information. Once he found an opportunity, he would attack the Turkic tribe, kill several high-ranking officials, chiefs, and make military achievements.

Strengthen the team, accumulate funds, and make military achievements as much as possible. The relationship with various tribes becomes stronger and the reputation becomes more and more popular, so he can move towards the next goal step by step.

There was a sound of wheels next to it, but a convoy slowly drove towards them, passing by them, and walking forward.

These carriages are all four-wheeled chariots, with cavalry guards, and according to the banner, they are vehicles in the army.

Yu Dou was a general of the Chu army with titles, so the army was well-informed. He knew that the passengers on these carriages escorted by soldiers were probably here to do something.

In short, it is "coronavirus". During the day, it is said that you have to look at the stars at night.

Yu Dou thinks that these people probably look at the trends of mountains, rivers, and Feng Shui treasure land.

Similar teams not only moved around Huaihuang, but also visited other border towns.

So Yu Dou felt strange, what did the imperial court send so many people to the border to do?

Geometric... Could it be that it is to choose a site for the imperial tomb?

Or should I dig out the ancestral tomb of the Turkic Khan and practice witchcraft?

Yu Dou quickly remembered the situation on the Turks.

Two years ago, the Chu army defeated the Turkic army and killed many important Turkic figures, which led to the Turkic not daring to come to the southern grassland easily afterwards.

Later, sporadic news came one after another. It is said that the Turkic Mu Khan Khan passed away not long after, and I don’t know if he was angry after learning about his defeat or died.

After Mugan Khan's death and his brother was killed by Yu Dou, many conflicts arose in the Turkic country about whether the new Khan's candidate was to be the father who died or the brother who died or the brother who died.

Therefore, the Turks had no time to take revenge and had no intention of making a comeback. Last year, the Chu army attacked Qi, and the direction of the grassland was quiet.

Yu Dou didn’t know if there was a new Khan in the Turkic country now, nor did he know if there was a new Khan, he would be able to convince the public.

But it can be confirmed that after the previous war, the Turkic side suffered a series of defeats, which made the other side suffer and did not dare to make a big attack.

Therefore, the court took advantage of the other party's fear of invasion and rebuilt various border towns and began to advance towards the grassland.

This is inevitable that their minions will charge forward, so the court has sold out even the armor and the sky-blasting thunder. If they do not seize this opportunity, they will definitely regret it in the future.

As he walked, the entourage who had concerns asked, "Boss, sooner or later, the imperial court will sell armor like this, and it will flow into the people in large quantities. Isn't that important?"

"Of course it's important." Yu Dou replied, looking at the other party: "Since ancient times, the government has not allowed the people to have armor."

The follower wondered: "The court still..."

Yu Dou smiled: "The reason is very simple. The purpose of banning armor is to prevent human rebellion and rebellion. Today's official army has magical weapons and is not afraid of this, so it opens the armor ban on the border."

"If those local snakes dare to rebel and cause trouble, what if everyone has armor? When the official army comes, they will not be able to stop them and will definitely die of their whole family."
