Chapter 71 Liu Che's Layout
It has been two months since Dongfang Shuo came here last time, time is slowly coming to December, and the weather is gradually getting colder.

But for some reason, the first snow in the fifth year of Yuanfeng did not fall for a long time.

Huo Shan was still dressed in strong clothes, the weather was not too cold for him.

He was on his way to the servant, and he was going to receive the horses today.

The soldiers in the Yulin Army have been eliminated, nearly two months faster than he expected, Zhao Ponu and Qimen are desperately tossing.

The nearly 3000 people who were eliminated were also taken over by Xu Ziwei.

Not far from the Yulin Army camp, a new camp was built, named Huben Army, and Xu Ziwei temporarily served as the school lieutenant.

The three hundred Qimen instructors also returned to Huo Shan's side. As for the two hundred who had been following them for the past few months, Liu Che took them back.

The stables in the Yulin army camp were also repaired. Huo Shan went to the eunuch today to find Gongsun He and receive the [-] horses that he had promised long ago.

There are five hundred more people, and naturally one thousand more horses.

It has been a few days since winter, and the caravan is about to start in the spring. This time, I also talked with Gongsun He about the caravan.

Forming a caravan is a trivial matter for this kind of person who has been in the position of a servant for decades. What Gongsun He lacks is just a way.

This time with the caravan was also done in secret, it was a cooperation with Liu Che's Shaofu.

The only personnel were Huo Shan and Gongsun He, not even Wei Qing.

Huo Shan also invited Wei Qing, but Wei Qing was unwilling to do it, the more money the more dangerous.

As for the others, they didn't have the qualifications yet. Even Pingyang wanted to join and make some money for Cao Zong, but Huo Shan rejected him face to face.
This matter made Ping Yang scribble on his ears for several days, but Huo Shan never agreed.

Because in Liu Che's heart, this matter was digging out money that belonged to him, which was a taboo thing.

He doesn't care if your caravan goes by itself, but going with the Shaofu is of a different nature, so it is thanks to Huo Shan that we can go with the Shaofu this time.

You can do it without telling Liu Che, but how can you hide it, Liu Che is not stupid yet.

And this kind of thing can't be done secretly, it must be explained.

Although Huo Shan is the Minister of the Young Mansion, the Young Mansion is still His Majesty's Young Mansion.

So this time, I purchased goods from Shaofu, went with the caravan of Shaofu, and then came back together, and Shaofu had to take a commission.

Although the profit is relatively small, the quantity is large and the safety is greatly increased.

Huo Shan knew exactly what Gongsun He was thinking at the beginning.

It's nothing more than walking with the eldest brother a few times first, and once you get familiar with the way, you can do it yourself.

But he will never get rid of Huo Shan, he wants to do it alone, Liu Che will not stop him, Huo Shan can make his caravan lose money with just one word.

It's the normal operation of those soldiers in the west.

So he figured it out later, hugged Huo Shan tightly, and made a lot of money once he went out. Although it took a little longer, basically three or four years at a time, no one was willing to let go.

As for Huo Shan, he never had this idea. If he could do it, he would follow the Shaofu all the time.

Anyway, there are many opportunities to make money in the future, and there is no shortage of money.

.........

"Zihou met Uncle Gongsun and grandfather."

"Haha, Zihou, hurry up, it's just in time to come, come and taste the old man's tea, which I managed to obtain with great difficulty."

Huo Shan walked over and sat down, Gongsun He handed Huo Shan a cup, Huo Shan took it with both hands, Gongsun He looked at Huo Shan expectantly.

Huo Shan felt something was wrong, but he could only take a sip of the tea handed by his elders.

As soon as it entered his mouth, Huo Shan's expression changed immediately, he turned his head and spat into the teacup, his face wrinkled tightly:
"What kind of tea is this, why is it so bitter?"

It's really not ordinary bitterness, and not only bitterness, but also a strange smell.

Gongsun He first burst out laughing, and then said expressionlessly:
"That brat at home got it, and it cost me a hundred gold for ten catties."

When Huo Shan heard this, his face was extremely exciting, and it was all on his father's head, Gongsun Jingsheng is really a talent.

"I said, why he has been staying in the camp for the past few days and not coming out, it turned out to be because of this, hahahaha!"

In the end, Huo Shan still couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

Both the father and son are living treasures, the son cheats on his father, and his father is very angry, but he also has the meaning of enjoying it, they are two wonderful people.

"Is Zihou here to fetch the horse?"

"Exactly."

"Well, I'll write the warrant for you later, and you can just ask someone to pick it up in Chenghua's stable."

"By the way, what happened to the caravan?"

Huo Shan picked up the kettle next to him, washed a clean teacup, poured a glass of water and said:

"I have already discussed with His Majesty."

Gongsun He immediately asked expectantly:

"What conditions?"

"The goods must be purchased from Shaofu at Dahan's market price, and the upper limit is [-] gold."

"One hundred thousand gold is still available, yes."

Gongsun He nodded to accept it, and then waited for Huo Shan's next words.

"Follow the caravan of the Shaofu, and the Shaofu will charge a shipping fee."

"How many?"

Huo Shan raised his head to look at Gongsun He, and said a number that he couldn't accept.

"Thirty percent."

Gongsun He frowned, but replied within a few seconds:
"can!"

"It's not over yet!"

"and also?"

Gongsun He, an old money fan, couldn't help raising his voice a bit.

Huo Shan nodded calmly:

"Huangzhong and Dunhuang have [-]% of the money. Not only you have to give this money, but I have to give it too. The family will get [-]% and His Majesty will also give you a reward. The Shaofu's profit will be half of the family."

"The caravan of the Shaofu, why give them profits, are they still His Majesty's army, or are they the people of the big man?"

Gongsun He suppressed people with great power, but Huo Shan didn't show any fear at all.

"Don't overwhelm me, His Majesty has already agreed to this matter."

"There must be a reason, right?"

Gongsun He was silent for a while, and finally asked dryly.

"The Shaofu has not run a caravan for three years. The volume of goods this time is very large. The market price of Dahan is more than 50 gold. Your Majesty wants to sell it all at once."

Gongsun He is a little confused, so why don't you take your time?

Gongsun He didn't understand, but Huo Shan knew something based on history, because the Western Regions will still not be peaceful in a few years.

Huo Shan really didn't expect that Liu Che had set his sights on the Western Regions so early, not only did he set his sights on it, but he probably also had some plans in his heart!
"If the goods of 50 gold are operated well, they can be exchanged for three to four million gold. With so much money, you can rest assured that you can travel in the Western Region where there are many countries?
The army of the Han Dynasty must not go out lightly, and the Shaofu cannot bring too many soldiers, so it can only send Huang Zhongyi to go forward. It is impossible for you not to know who is in Huangzhong.

Xiaoyuezhi, Dayuezhi, and Qiang people, except for the Qiang people, they are from all over the Western Regions. They are familiar with the situation, and they are very suitable for guarding caravans.

And Dunhuang is at the forefront of the Western Regions, so it is normal to ask for a copy. "

After finishing speaking, Huo Shan made a calculation in his heart.

[-]% in Huangzhong, [-]% in Dunhuang, [-]% in Shaofu, and half of them will disappear immediately.

The principal of 100 gold, in the most ideal state, will be doubled ten times, 50 million gold, 40 gold will be given to other people, in addition to the principal, 30 gold, if you spend some more on the road, it is estimated that you will have [-] gold left .

This is still the most ideal state, and if everyone can accomplish it, is that still ideal?
And the price is low when the quantity is large. This is the truth that everyone understands. This time there are so many goods, it is already very good to double it by three or five times.

So for the [-] gold, it is almost enough to earn [-] to [-] gold, and maybe you have to pay it back.

Not to mention, it will take at least two, three or four years for this trip.

With a principal of [-] yuan, earning [-] yuan in three years, the risk is huge... Tsk tsk. '

Gongsun He needs to pay [-]% of the [-] principal, and Huo Shan only needs to pay [-]% of Shaofu's [-] principal.

If Liu Che can give [-]% to the two families as a reward, it is already a high incense.

If it wasn't for Huo Shan's request, where did the top soldiers get the rewards, a reward from a high-ranking military official would be enough.

Moreover, this [-]% loss was earned back before the start. Huo Shan and Gongsun He bought Shaofu's goods at the market price of Dahan, not the cost price.

If Huo Shan could figure it out, Gongsun He would naturally be able to figure it out too, but taking money from him was more uncomfortable than killing him.

It can be seen from this that Gongsun Jingsheng's greed is hereditary, but the father and son, one knows what to take and what not to take, and the other is unscrupulous.

After a while, Huo Shan came out from the servant's office, and Gongsun He finally agreed.

But as soon as Huo Shan left, Gongsun He's face became extremely ugly.

In his eyes, this matter was no longer a simple business, it was Liu Che digging his money.

He was very panicked now, he didn't know why he had offended Liu Che, or rather, Liu Che had already set his sights on him.

As for Gongsun He, he was purely scaring himself.

As for Huo Shan, he was also very stressed at this time.

In Gongsun He's eyes, it was Liu Che who was going to attack him, but in Huo Shan's eyes, it was Liu Che who had already started to deploy in the Western Regions.

With so much money, walking on the road to the Western Regions, accidents will definitely happen, even if the countries dare not move, accidents will definitely happen.

And once something happens, the big man will have a reason to march into the Western Regions.

Two years later, the Dawan Bloody Horse Battle due to sweaty horses might turn into a battle for gold in the Western Regions.

As for the millions of gold, compared with the expansion of the territory, it is nothing.

Not to mention, if you kill them and show your power, you can not only get back the money, but also get back more.

Therefore, Huo Shan's pressure came from the pressure of time.

The plan he made for himself was that after the training in the camp was completed, the last step was to go to the Xiongnu for a tour, to forge himself with blood and forge Habayashi.

Then when he came back, he led his troops directly into the battle of Dawan, Wei Qing stared at the Xiongnu, and he calmed down the Western Regions without any worries, and the power of the Han Dynasty rose sharply.

Then looking back, the grandfather and grandson destroyed the Xiongnu together.

But now that Liu Che is starting to plan ahead, a war may break out in the Western Regions next year, and Huo Shan has a sense of urgency.

"Need to speed up."
