The empress is also very hot today

Chapter 23 Direct Logistics
Shangguan Yuce heard a new term: logistics.

However, as the center of power in the imperial court, Taichang, such a big man, although he had never heard of this awkward word, he could still hear some tricks, and immediately asked in a low voice.

"The logistics mentioned by Qing Wan is a bodyguard company? But although the northern border here is not too far away from Kyoto, it still takes a full three days' journey without sleep and rest, and the speed of the bodyguard journey will definitely not be so fast. It is estimated that it will take half a month to go back and forth... If you hire these escorts, it will be very valuable."

But Ran Tong shook his head.

"Uncle Yuce, after all, the bodyguard company is an outsider, and the nature of security is not guaranteed. Qingwan is going to set up a logistics outlet by herself, only responsible for the material trade between you and me, and does not care about any other matters for the time being. If Uncle Yuce is worried about changes along the way If there is any loss, Qing Wan can guarantee the whole process, and as for the transportation personnel, my brothers here can guarantee the safe arrival of the goods."

Shangguan Yuce pondered for a while, Sikong Qingwan's proposal was somewhat beyond his expectation, he set up his own bodyguard company with his own efforts, it would indeed save time and effort, and since they are all his own people, there is no need to be afraid of mistakes in the process.Moreover, Shangguan Yuce did not suffer any loss from the description, this girl had already paved the way for him before she put forward this opinion.

He only needs to be responsible for purchasing the things needed by the northern frontier in Kyoto. The transportation and security work are all contributed by the northern frontier, but he can get some rare things here safely and worry-free. There is a lot of publicity in Tiangong Pavilion, these things that no one has seen in Xunri will surely attract the favor of many dignitaries.

It belongs to lying down and making money.

Shangguan Yuce shook his head with a wry smile: "Qingwan is thinking too unreasonably of Uncle Yuce, don't worry, I will also arrange escorts for the responsibility of transportation security, but the transportation process and the time required to go back and forth will take six months at the fastest. Day, without special storage methods, food items, I am afraid they cannot keep fresh..."

"Don't worry about this, Qingwan has her own way."

Soon, the meeting came to an end.

Before leaving, Shangguan Yuce also took a long list of items from Ran Tong for this official transaction.

"Rice, wheat, and other grains are 100 dan each.

30 dan each of pork, beef or poultry, eggs and meat.

Vegetables, fruits and a series of soft 500 Dan.

"

He lowered his head and took a rough look. Although there were many things on the list in Chapter 1, for him, all of these things were some cheap grains, which were sold in major markets in Kyoto, and there was nothing difficult to obtain. things.Although this amount is quite large, the money spent is not as high as the price of a pencil, provided that the pencil can cause a good response in Tiangong Pavilion.

What is required on the second page list is a bit more difficult.

"Iron material.

steel.

resin.

Linen.

wood.

silk.

"

Moreover, the amount needed was huge, causing Shangguan Yuce to frown, but he didn't ask any further questions, he put away the list and prepared to leave.

When the carriage was about to leave, Ran Tong came over again, followed by the scar-faced Chen Gang and several brothers behind him.

"Uncle Yu Ce, these people are my trustworthy right-hand men, and they are all highly skilled in martial arts. They will accompany you back to Beijing. After you go back to purchase, they will be responsible for bringing back the supplies."

Shangguan Yuce glanced at the group of tough men on horseback, and couldn't help swallowing, especially the scarred face in the front, Shangguan Yuce was particularly impressed by the fierce appearance of this man.

"Then Qingwan, Uncle Yuce is going back now. If the few items you gave have a good response in Tiangong Pavilion, then I will also ask you brothers to bring a list of what I want when they return. "

"That's natural, happy cooperation, Uncle Yu Ce."

The two said goodbye briefly, and Chen Gang went with Shangguan Yuce.

Seeing the convoy getting further and further away, Zhang Peng who was beside Ran Tong approached.

"Miss, is it safe for you to let my elder brother follow?"

Ran Tong smiled and said: "It's okay, I believe big brother, I did intend to let you go with me at first, but I have other things for you to do."

After a pause, Zhang Peng seemed to have thought of something, and asked cautiously and softly.

"What the eldest lady said, are you planning to annex the two villages in the northwest?"

Ran Tong turned his head in surprise.

"Second brother actually counted this matter?"

This Zhang Peng was able to guess Ran Tong's next plan. It was true that she hadn't expected it. It seemed that she needed to raise this character who served as a military adviser in the bandit village to another level in her heart.

After receiving Ran Tong's affirmative reply, Zhang Peng also seemed a little excited. After all, this Sikong Qingwan in front of him is the official lord of the entire northern frontier, and all the land here belongs to her, the only bloodline of King Kaixun, but now On this land, there are still two forces floating outside.

The four bandit villages, the Scarface gang on their own side, and the Fatty gang who just swallowed them before, have all formally surrendered to Sikong Qingwan.

There are only two villages left in the west and north.

How can a dignified lord of a territory tolerate two bandits who are self-proclaimed kings on his territory?

"Miss, which one are we going to attack first? When will we attack?"

Relying on Sikong Qingwan's support, not to mention laying down two strongholds, if you let Zhang Peng take over the Mahayana Dynasty now, it is estimated that this man will also carefully consider the possibility.

"What about the second brother?"

"I suggest going to the North Machete Gang first, because apart from the fat man in Nanshan, the butchers on the west coast of the four villages are the hardest bones to bite. Persimmons are soft to pinch. Compared with the North Machete Gang simple."

"Then do as the second brother said, and you will gather the brothers from tomorrow." Ran Tong chuckled: "Be sure to kill them at noon!"

Lunch time?

Zhang Peng is a little concerned about why Ran Tong let them kill them at this time, but Ran Tong has always had his own unique insights and plans. Even if he guessed all night, it can only be counted as her next plan. I can predict what this young lady is going to do, probably only the gods in the sky.

"Tomorrow at noon? Well, listen to the eldest lady. At noon tomorrow, I will take my brothers and promise to kill them by surprise!" Zhang Peng held a steel knife and sharpened it.

"Yes, when the time comes, let the brothers take out the steamed buns in their hands and starve them to death!"

"Ok?"

Zhang Peng staggered and almost fell.
