There's something wrong with this guy

Chapter 113 Trading
Dan Liu also seems to be interested in pointing Xi Huanyan, and will analyze with her the characters and behaviors of these people, as well as his own coping methods and communication methods.

Once, Xi Huanyan asked, "Does Aunt Dan feel tired? Dealing with so many people makes me worry about this and that."

"Why are you tired? The purpose of my dealings is to achieve my goals. What makes me tired should be spending a lot of time on useless people and things and getting nothing."

"That's true, but what if the necessary communication partner is someone you don't like or hate?"

Danliu said patiently, "Dongjun, I want to say that you can be happy or angry, but you can't. There is no one who is absolutely above everything in this world, so you have to guard against villains and people's hearts, even if you hate him. You should also give due respect to the person, but you can choose whether to pay a certain price to change the 'necessary communication object' into an 'unnecessary communication object', no one is irreplaceable."

Xi Huanyan realized something, "If you can't change yourself, you can change the environment you face, right?"

"You can also think so." Dan Liu laughed, "Awareness of the world is a kind of knowledge, understanding of human relations is a kind of maturity, knowledge of the world is not so sophisticated is a state, in fact, with Dongjun's status, you can make the communication you have to deal with There are very few targets. If there are any, they are probably above the duke class, or people who hold your handle.

You are already standing on the clouds, if there is such a person who threatens you, its destructive power will be so great that you will fall into the mud, so I sincerely hope that Dong Jun has an indestructible heart, unrivaled strength, and There is a pair of insightful eyes. "

"I have benefited a lot from Auntie Dan's words. I am not in the world, and I still need the advice of the elders."

Dan Liu's eyes were softer, "The matter on my side has come to an end, Dong Jun might as well go and purchase materials with Ting Hua, his side must be very interesting."

Tinghua had to go out of Jiyanhai, or even out of Tongzhou, to get in touch with raw material sources and material merchants. He pulled up a team of cavalry, and he had just brought back the stretched sand, and he would set off again soon to find other materials. .

Xi Huanyan went with him. If you say that Danliu's side is a scheming battle, Tinghua's side is full of open and dark arrows and pure malice. Along the way, he encountered robbers and black shops all over the place.

Tinghua taught her to distinguish slang words, told her what kind of routes would have a high chance of encountering robbers and horse thieves, took her to deal with low-level vulgar businessmen, and explained the almost despicable methods they would use.

She experienced good, evil, right and wrong at various levels around Danliu and Tinghua, and gradually became familiar with the world and the world, and her mood became more relaxed.

After a lot of experience, there are only so many things about people, and there are only so many things about living.

It was half a month after all the materials were collected, and the main body of the workshop was also completed. Although Bu Cao didn't ask for a delivery time, she didn't want to delay, and asked Dan Liu to notify the manpower to be in place.

This time, two stewards, five guards, and ten apprentices were recruited. Xi Huanyan summarized the process of making lenses into five steps, and every two apprentices learned one step. In the name of Zhen Ge Fang, he is invited to select five students in the Shennian branch to teach clairvoyance and sacrifice lenses.

These people have learned their own skills, and they can work proficiently in less than a month.

Xi Huanyan didn't want to do repetitive work, so with a flick of her hands, she assigned the task of making lenses, practiced exercises by herself, watched the snow, and spent the winter day with hot milk.

Xu Shi couldn't see her being so comfortable, so Bo Cao came to her secretly, "Dong Jun, stock up on the raw materials for the perspective mirror."

"What happened?"

"Alas." Bo Cao slapped his thigh, angry and resentful, "As soon as the border war stopped, the Imperial Palace called for the creator of the thunder cannon. Of course we don't want to hand it over, but Yu Yazi talked to the lord, and the lord will let go." Signs, we are currently negotiating the terms of the exchange with our Liu Cao, and the addition of the perspective mirror to the list of imperial military aids has also been added. If the exchange goes smoothly, there will be an order of 20 to [-] in Zhen Gefang. "

Xi Huanyan was silent when he heard the words, and Bao Cao had no choice but to explain, "This is how things in the officialdom are. After all, Tongzhou is part of the empire, but it is not under the rule of the emperor's palace after all, so we are not allowed to have things in our hands that the emperor's palace cannot control. Weapons, not to mention the imperial palace, other dukes can't see that we have such powerful weapons as mine cannons, so it's a helpless move."

"I see."

This incident made her sensitively aware that Yu Yazi might want to exchange the few lives she had left for the interests of Tongzhou.

After seeing off Book Cao, Xi Huanyan went to Bingshan Mountain, and Yu Yazi polished weapon parts in the underground workshop, as usual.

"Why are you here? It's snowing a lot outside." Yu Yazi straightened up, rolled a cigarette and lit it habitually.

"You voluntarily go to the imperial capital?"

"Xiao Dongjun's news is very good." She took a puff on her cigarette and said with a smile, "Of course I would like to go, I don't have any materials here to spoil."

Xi Huanyan nodded, "Tell me the day you leave, and I'll see you off."

Yu Yazi knocked off the soot, turned around and went to take out the tin box in the corner, "I happen to have something for you."

She held out a small box, which was a soft and elastic transparent thing, "It's called Diyun, no matter how much you toss it, it will return to its original shape. I was excited for a long time when I first got it, and thought it could be used as a weapon, but it's a pity I still can't find a suitable way to use it, you are excellent in divine sense, maybe you can use divine sense to change its character."

".Thank you." Xi Huanyan didn't understand why she was so open-minded, as if the hardships that fate imposed on her were insignificant.

If it were her, she would try every means to get rid of the power that could restrain her, let alone sacrifice her freedom or life for some reason, oh no, she could sacrifice for Xingjin, but only once.

From a personal point of view, if Yu Yazi was involuntary, based on the friendship of a half-teacher, even if his own people were slight, he would argue with Xingjin, but if she was voluntary, then there was nothing to say.

Xi Huanyan went back and told Danliu and Tinghua the news, telling them to step up their search for new manpower and hoard raw materials.

Sure enough, in less than half a month, Bo Cao brought definite information, and Tongzhou and the Imperial Palace negotiated back and forth, finalizing the terms of the transaction——

Granted the commanding authority of the Red Dingshan Imperial Army to the Duke of Xingjin, officially conferred the title of Marshal of Zhengxi, and was fully in charge of the military affairs of Tianhuo Dao.

Promise to accept three military equipment quotas submitted by the same state.

"Apparatus rather than auxiliary equipment is equivalent to selling any type of knife to the empire. The empire must buy it, but we can't be too wicked. It is best to use these three places properly, which can have a good impact on the finances and reputation of the same state. , so this time we will finalize the perspective lens first, and we will talk about the rest later.”

After Bo Cao finished speaking, he stretched out two fingers, "A perspective mirror costs two thousand."

"Isn't it going to be one thousand ones? It doesn't matter if you mention it, as long as the volume exceeds [-], it will easily reach hundreds of millions."

"It's more than [-]. We are chasing closely, and the quantity of goods has been determined with the empire."

Bo Cao took out a contract, which clearly marked 18 perspective mirrors, 400 million.

Xi Huanyan was neither overjoyed nor sad, "When will Yu Yazi leave?"

"The emperor's palace dispatched troops from Gaozhou to pick them up, and they will leave in about five days."
