The establishment of a gang is more complicated than getting married, and the bare ritual is very complicated. So when I was busy on this day, even though Zhao Yuan was very skilled, he was very tired after being busy on the day. He didn't want to move while lying on the bed.

There is a first time in everything, but Zhao Yuan never expected that there were many etiquettes for getting married yesterday, and there were many etiquettes for establishing the gang today. However, thinking that the iron blood sect had finally been established through hardships, I felt a little relieved.

"My leader, are you so tired?"

Cang Wushuang said with a smile, sitting next to him, reaching out to gently pinch his shoulders.

Zhao Yuan lay on the bed, as if he had no bones all over his body, and said, "I only now know that the leader of the gang looks high and actually is very tired. Just like being this emperor, they say that all over the world is the king's land, and the boundaries of the land are the king's ministers. In fact, after I took this throne, I realized that being an emperor is not as good as an ordinary person, so now I regret it. If I had known it would be better than to be this sect leader, so I will take you with me and find a quiet place to point out that life is like a fairy couple is enough!"

Cang Wushuang smiled and said, "It's a pity that you have already boarded this ship now. You can't just continue rowing. If you abandon the ship halfway, it won't work!"

While speaking, they slightly condensed their internal forces between their fingers and massaged Zhao Yuan. After the last dual cultivation, their internal forces had already been somewhat integrated. Doing so will not only prevent Zhao Yuan from rebounding its internal forces, but will instead reduce the effect of reducing fatigue.

Zhao Yuan turned over and hugged her in his arms. He smiled and said, "My husband has worked hard for a day today. So should I reward him well at night?"

Cang Wushuang's pretty face turned red and she said, "Go to find my sister,"

Zhao Yuanqi said: "Why do you take the initiative to drive your husband out?"

Cang Wushuang said: "You are not blamed, you... I was so troubled last night, go quickly! Let me have a good rest!"

Zhao Yuan stood up, sighed, and said, "Okay, I'll go find Zhiqing."

Zhao Yuan left the yard and came to Liu Zhiqing's room. When he entered the room, he found that there were a few side dishes and a pot of wine in the room. He smiled and said, "How did you know I was coming?"

Liu Zhiqing smiled and said, "My wife, I counted my fingers. Of course I knew you were coming, so I prepared the wine and food. Is this explanation satisfactory?"

Zhao Yuan sat next to her and smiled and said, "Mrs. I am satisfied no matter how I say it, but I am really hungry. I only drink and eat less food at night."

Liu Zhiqing said: "So I have prepared a few plates of fresh side dishes for you. Apart from that, this wine is rice wine, and there is no alcoholism."

Zhao Yuan said: "It's better to be considerate, come on, eat together!"

Liu Zhiqing nodded, picked up the wine pot and poured the wine for Zhao Yuan, and said, "What are the plans for me next? Although Xuandao Hall has surrendered now, Xuandao Hall is only in the Suzhou area. Taihu Lake is so big. After the Five Lakes Gangs were wiped out, many gangs took the opportunity to expand and their power should not be underestimated. In addition, a lot of gang expenses are actually supported by the imperial court, but even if the imperial court's expenditure is not endless, we still have to have our own industries."

Liu Zhiqing had managed the Liu family. After completing the infrastructure of the Iron Blood Sect, she became the position of the chief internal affairs manager. The gang members spent a considerable amount of money every day, and the gang members' food, drink, defecation, etc., all of them required money.

The Iron Blood Sect is actually the Iron Blood Sect of the Jinyiwei. In the early stage of construction, the Jinyiwei paid through hidden channels and used a lot of money. Now that the Iron Blood Sect has been established, it is natural that you have to find a way for yourself. If you are not economically independent, you will always be subject to others.

How could Zhao Yuan not understand this truth? He was silent for a moment and asked, "I have thought about this. In fact, running a gang is like running a business. You must have your own products and sales channels. So what do you think we should go next?"

Liu Zhiqing said: "The so-called relying on the mountains and eating the mountains and water, the Iron Blood Sect can only rely on Taihu Lake. I have sent someone to talk about it before, and then I have talked with Mr. Feng Bingcun in detail. I think we must first obtain the right to transport water on Taihu Lake!"

Zhao Yuan followed Liu Zhiqing's wishes and gently knocked on the dishes in his hand, then slowly said: "I think we can divide it into three steps now!"

Liu Zhiqing said: "Those three steps, let's hear it?"

Zhao Yuan said: "The first step is that I ask Wugang to investigate the gang forces around Taihu Lake and the water forces controlling Taihu Lake. Then, whether it is grabbing, grabbing, or negotiating, we must firmly control the surrounding areas of Taihu Lake and surrounding waters in our own hands. First of all, we must establish our unique status in this area."

As Liu Zhiqing said, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and water to eat water. Since the Iron Blood Sect wants to establish itself in this area, of course, it must firmly control Taihu Lake in its own hands. No matter what method is used, Besides, the Iron Blood Sect was originally established, and never thought of rising through peaceful means.

Liu Zhiqing nodded and said, "What about the second one?"

Zhao Yuan said: "After controlling this water area, it means levying protection fees on passing ships. This is the practice of many gangs. This fee must be levied. The amount can be small, but it cannot be avoided. Even if it is a penny."

Liu Zhiqing thought for a while and said, "I probably understand what you mean. You do this to make people know that I, Iron Blood Sect, are the only overlord of Taihu area. The purpose of the expropriation is actually to look at them on the surface, and the amount of expropriation depends on us!"

Zhao Yuan praised: "It is indeed worthy of the helmsman of the Liu family. This is indeed the meaning. The real purpose of collecting past protection fees from them is to tell them that this area is the territory of my Iron Blood Sect. The only one who can collect protection fees for passing ships from them is my Iron Blood Sect. As for how much it is charged, it depends on my mood."

The purpose of collection is not to collect how much money or how much money it needs to be earned, it is just a manifestation of a force.

Liu Zhiqing said: "What about the second point?"

Zhao Yuan said: "The collection of protection fees is indeed an income. As the saying goes, water can carry a boat and can also overturn it, so it can only be low but not high. This can ensure that the ship is willing to take this waterway. In other words, it is called small profits but quick turnover. Therefore, to make money, we have to have other methods, such as forming a fleet! This fleet can be controlled by ourselves, or other ships can join, and then formulate a unified price regulation for different cargoes and distances of transportation to avoid vicious competition. Needless to say, our own ships, for those franchised ships, we only need to charge an administrative fee, and at the same time, they can also exempt their protection fees. In short, open prices and ensure transparent fees. Merchants can pay a certain amount of money to ensure that the goods are delivered completely. To make money, it is not about forced buying and selling, but openness and transparency. To put it bluntly, it is about standardizing the transportation of the Taihu area."

At this time, I don’t expect that there will be supervision agencies such as the Price Bureau after hundreds of years. Therefore, even if the tolls or protection fees or transportation fees are different in the same area, the gang is stronger, so the protection fees will naturally be high. This situation will make the merchants have to pay high tolls after the goods are transported out. However, the hard labor paid by the transported ships cannot make money that match their own labor, which makes them miserable.

The purpose of the Jinyiwei is to let the Iron Blood Sect control the area of ​​Taihu Lake. As for how to control it, he didn't say it. What Zhao Yuan thought about was that deterrence and Huairou coexist. The Iron Blood Sect should maintain sufficient deterrence in this area to ensure that all forces of all places are in line with the Iron Blood Sect's leader and dare not make small moves privately with the Iron Blood Sect's back. On the other hand, it is to create a stable business environment and there are many ways to earn money, but hard-working is definitely the stupidest way to do it.

Liu Zhiqing looked at Zhao Yuan in surprise and said in surprise: "You actually know these things, I always thought..."

Zhao Yuan held the wine glass and drank it all in one go, laughing and said, "Did you always think your husband is just a reckless man who can only fight, kill, kill?"

Liu Zhiqing said: "Indeed, I really look at you with admiration today. Well, let me guess, I think another purpose of your fleet is to want the imperial court's orders?"

Zhao Yuan laughed and said, "Correct, we have a ship, and we can ensure that our ship can only transport the goods smoothly. There is no reason why the court does not leave it to us."

Liu Zhiqing said: "But if that's the case, there will be many gangs we have to deal with."

Zhao Yuan said: "Yes, so this can not be completed in one or two days. In order to ensure the smooth flow of the route, we have to explain to many gangs. This can be carried out simultaneously. In addition, this is also an idea. It is not easy to complete, and it has to be done step by step. As for this third point..."

As soon as he said this, Liu Zhiqing raised a finger, pressed Zhao Yuan's mouth, and said, "Let me guess, well, my husband is planning to have his own industry? Since there is a fleet, then all goods from all over the world can be shipped, so of course these goods can be sold by themselves. Why just behave as errands?"

Zhao Yuan laughed and said, "That's true to me, my wife!"

In fact, for a gang, especially in Taihu Lake, the biggest income is protection fees, or forming fleets to monopolize water transportation. In this case, water transportation is the main mode of transportation. After all, it has the functions of transporting large quantities of goods, small manpower, and safety.

Controlling the water transport of Taihu Lake and levying protection fees on passing ships to ensure their transportation safety in Taihu Lake area is a source of income. Another is to form a fleet, accept the task of transporting goods from the court, and the cargo transportation of merchants along the way, etc. It is like setting up a transportation company, which can also transport people in addition to transporting goods. Third, after your own transportation network is connected to all kinds of people, the goods transported will naturally be available from all over the world, so of course you can open a store and sell these goods by yourself to make profits.

Liu Zhiqing said: "Of course, but it will take a lot of time to complete these three."

Zhao Yuan said: "Now is more time for us? If we are entrusted by others, we will be considered as a benefit to others if we can complete it."

Liu Zhiqing nodded and said, "Okay, I'll find Wugang tomorrow and let him first investigate how many gangs there are in this Taihu area, and then actually control which gangs there are in each waterway. If they can surrender, the conditions for accepting us will be better. If they are stubborn and stubborn, then only my husband and sister will take action. Even if they use force, they must ensure that they follow my iron-blooded sect leader, and even if they are orally convinced, they will be successful."

To complete the three plans mentioned by Zhao Yuan, the most critical point is to ensure that the entire Taihu area is controlled by the Iron Blood Sect, even if it is powered by force.

Zhao Yuan said: "Then there is Mrs. Lau. Okay, now we won't talk about state affairs, we only talk about the wind and moon!"

Liu Zhiqing smiled and said, "What kind of romance or not? We are all married."

Zhao Yuan said: "Can't you talk about Fengyue after getting married? Besides, getting married is just a reason to give each other a legitimate reason to sleep on the same bed. What's more, are there any other outsiders here?"

Liu Zhiqing glanced at him and said, "You are not a man. Now I want to drive you back to my sister."

Zhao Yuan suddenly cried and said, "Madam, please spare me. I am a self-reliant. Now I can command the entire Iron Blood Sect. The Iron Blood Sect is my leader. As a result, I was disliked by the two ladies the next day. The second lady drove me to the eldest lady. The eldest lady dared to go to the second lady. In the end, there was no way to sleep in the study. If it was spread, it would be very unfavorable to my identity as the leader of the sect. There would be any prestige there in the future. It is said that this wife is the husband's leader and I cannot correct the husband's leader. Then, in this iron blood Sect, how can my sect master convince the public?"

Liu Zhiqing was a little amused and said, "I just talk about it. Who said I would really drive you away? Then I know that there are a lot of wrong reasons. Well, my dear husband, how do you plan to correct your husband's leadership? I will obey the order."

Zhao Yuan said a little thief: "Don't worry, don't worry, eat first. What if the wine and delicacies prepared by the lady personally do not finish it? Otherwise, wouldn't it be disappointing to my wife's wishes!"

Liu Zhiqing said: "You only have sweet mouth. Eat quickly."

As he said that, he picked up the chopsticks and picked up the dishes for Zhao Yuan.

Zhao Yuan was eating the dish and said strangely: "By the way, where is Shi Yin?"

Liu Zhiqing said: "Let Wan'er take her to bed. Aren't you coming tonight?"

Zhao Yuan smiled and said, "Mrs. I'm still thinking carefully. Now I'm full of wine and meals. That husband wants to revive his husband's principles!"

As he said that, he picked up Liu Zhiqing in the waist.
Chapter completed!
