Kai Fu Han

Chapter 340 Anzi
Liu Xinqi understood that Yu Jin wanted to exchange these old and weak people for supplies, but he did not want to ruin his reputation.

"This is not difficult. The general only needs to promise to the rebel brothers: after this war, whoever wants to take their families back, our Xinghan Alliance will definitely send their families back immediately?" Liu Xinqi promised.

"Is it absolutely true?" Yu Jin asked in surprise.

Doesn't this mean that Yu Jin can use the temporary ownership rights of these old and weak people to exchange for food, weapons and other materials from the Xinghan League.

"There is no doubt about this, and I can give you a letter to prove it." Liu Xinqi promised firmly.

From frugality to luxury is easy, from luxury to frugality.

When the time comes, it will not be up to these rebel leaders to decide whether the families of the rebels who have become accustomed to comfort will be willing to return to the war-torn land.

"This puts me at ease. The alliance leader keeps his word, so there is no need to establish written evidence. I believe in the alliance leader. But 3% is too little. Even if we leave the old and the weak to you, we still have [-] people. [-]% The quantity is far from enough." Yu Jin began to bargain.

After thinking about it, he also knew that Liu Xinqi planned to use himself to consume the Kingdom of Jin, and planned to take the opportunity to get more.As long as we have the sophisticated weapons and sufficient supplies of the Xinghan Alliance, and without the burden of the old and the weak, I believe it is still possible to survive this wave.

And written evidence, in this troubled world, if you want to regret it, written evidence is worse than toilet paper.

"It's not like all 3 of you are unarmed, at most [-]%. Our Xinghan League's steel production is limited. It's impossible for me to produce as much as you want." Liu Xinqi replied.

If you want a horse to run, you won't be able to do it if you don't give it grass to eat.

"Except for a small part of the weapons we have obtained from you, which are quite sophisticated, the rest are defective products captured from the Puppet Qi army. They are useless against the elites of the Jin Kingdom." Yu Jin cried sadly. He said, as if he had been greatly wronged.

"In this way, you are indeed at a great disadvantage when facing the Kingdom of Jin. Then we will squeeze in a little more, up to 16%. It is really impossible to have more. But you must add all males under 30 years old, over [-] years old and all Give all women to our Xinghan League." Liu Xinqi demanded again.

"How is this possible? Many of the backbones and generals in the army are over 30 years old. If we leave it to you, our rebel army will be paralyzed." How could Yu Jin agree?

According to Liu Xinqi, the rebel army may not even have 5000 people left.

"Yes, we are both over 30 years old. Shouldn't we also go to Penglai?" Yang Jin also disagreed and asked a question that Liu Xinqi could not refute.

"It's because I didn't think carefully. Then we will return the old and weak soldiers who are over 35 years old and under ten generals to us. Other requirements cannot be changed." Liu Xinqi said again.

Liu Xinqi used a strategy called the "anchoring effect" here.

The anchoring effect was proposed by a Nobel Prize winner in economics. I can’t remember the specific name Liu Xinqi, but I can still remember the general meaning: The anchoring effect means that people are susceptible to first impressions or first information when making judgments. That is, the initial anchor is dominated by the initial anchor as a reference point for adjustment, but due to insufficient adjustment, the final judgment is biased towards the anchor.

For example: there will be two prices on the clothes tag, the recommended retail price and the actual retail price. The recommended retail price is the anchor, making people feel that the actual price is not that high.

Starbucks also sells mineral water, not the aristocratic Baisuishan water, but Evian water, which is more expensive than Baisuishan. It costs 22 yuan a bottle. Although it cannot be sold, this water is not for sale, but for giving. The user price is anchored. If a bottle of mineral water costs 22 yuan, a cup of coffee at 30 yuan will be more acceptable.

Many gyms also use this method to apply for fitness cards. A half-year membership costs 3000. If you apply for a year, it only costs 4500. It is estimated that many people will choose to apply for a year, because at 3000 for half a year, you can save 1500 if you apply for a year.

The conditions Liu Xinqi proposed at the beginning were difficult for Yu Jin and Yang Jin to accept. They will feel much better after taking a step back.But if Liu Xinqi had proposed from the beginning that "veterans over 35 years old and under ten generals" would be handed over, the two of them would definitely not agree.

The retirement age of Zhao soldiers is 60 years old, and they are in their prime at 35 years old and are the main force in the army.

Yu Jin and Yang Jin listened to Liu Xinqi's request, looked at each other a few times, and finally Yu Jin said: "In addition to food, if you can equip all our remaining soldiers with the excellent swords of your Xinghan Alliance, we will agree. Your request." "Half knife, half gun." Liu Xinqi replied.

The steel used to make one knife can be used to make five to ten gun heads, but knives are not much more lethal on the battlefield than guns.If they are all equipped with swords, Xinghan Alliance will suffer a big loss.

Yang Jin nodded slightly towards Yu Jin.

"Plus enough food to feed our rebels for a month." Yu Jin added more.

"Deal!" Liu Xinqi stood up and opened his arms.

"The leader is awesome!" Yu Jin stepped forward and hugged Liu Xinqi, which was considered an agreement.

"Be prepared, let the old and weak rebels who are about to go to the Xinghan League go to the seaside, and our ship will come to pick them up." Liu Xinqi explained: "Weapons and food will be shipped with the ship at that time."

"it is good!"

After several people discussed some details, Liu Xinqi and Zhou Xinyuan took Wu Chengye out of the county government office.

Liu Xinbao stayed with the guards from the Military Intelligence Department and Liu Xinqi to assist (supervise) Yu Jin and Yang Jin in streamlining and reorganizing the rebel army.

……

After returning to the residence arranged by the rebels for the Military Intelligence Department.

After the three of them randomly found a room and entered, Liu Xinqi said, "If you agree to work for our Xinghan Alliance, I will allow you to join the Kingdom of Jin."

"Okay, I agree." Wu Chengye agreed readily. As long as he could visit the Kingdom of Jin and go home, he could do anything he wanted.

"You can't just say yes." Liu Xinqi said again: "You have been in Xinghan League for a long time. You should have heard many rumors about me and know that I can understand people's hearts."

"I've heard of it all." Wu Chengye replied, already aware of what was going to happen next.

"Well, you swear, don't try to get away with it, I can feel it." Liu Xinqi reminded.

Wu Chengye's face was solemn, without the crispness just now, and tangles began to appear on his face.

Liu Xinqi did not rush, but waited patiently.

Wu Chengye is a smart man, has his own beliefs and persistence, and is not easily influenced by other people's words. This is why he insists on escaping again and again.

Smart people are often paranoid and can only rely on themselves to convince themselves.

Fortunately, Wu Chengye finally made the choice Liu Xinqi wanted to see: "I, Wu Chengye, voluntarily join the Xinghan League. The emperor is above and the queen is below. I swear in the name of the ancestors of the Wu family to be loyal to the Xinghan League and abide by it." Alliance rules.”
