Chapter 6528 Transaction
When a small local lord like Bi Laoliu heard that a large-scale locust was about to rush over, he made a quick decision to directly wrap up the core population and run away.
Anyway, I don’t have a big heart. There is a village that has thousands of people who can’t make it. Central Asia is going to cause a locust plague. So why don’t I quickly turn from farming to nomadic people to avoid disaster first, and I have to fight to the death here?
slip!
In short, after receiving the news, the veterans of the ninth-level title established a fiefdom and were basically disbanded within a few days. After all, it was issued by the official and a notice was printed. If you don’t run away at this time, you will not be able to escape. When will you really wait for the locusts to come, you can’t even run away.
This scene made the Central Asian family very depressed. They actually wanted to run away, but they couldn't. If they had the ability to run hundreds of thousands of people and run away, they really dared to do this. The problem was that they had the ability to run hundreds of thousands of people and move homes, they had already used it. Not to mention that just organizing hundreds of thousands of people to run away, the materials and resources and manpower needed to be prepared in advance and the resources and manpower that were allocated were not something that the Central Asian family could take out. It was impossible to run away. Let's bear it.
Shi Min's beat was finally unable to survive. Zhang Fan of Hanoi's Zhang family was gentle and just beat Shi Min to death.
There is no way, the three major families of Zhang, Wang, and Wenxi Pei were squatting along the Persian Gulf. The Feng Shui of this place is very good, but this place is a must-pass for locust plagues in East Africa.
Especially after the super locust plague, the locusts evolved to the point where they were too lazy to detour and flew directly from the Red Sea. The first stop was the Persian Gulf. Therefore, every time a super locust plague occurred in East Africa, the Persian Gulf would suffer a heavy blow.
Moreover, because the locusts in the super locust plague forcefully cross the Red Sea, the hunger problem will become extremely serious. The locusts that just passed by, let alone crops, even wood and weaker chickens will chew on them, which will fully highlight what omnivorous creatures are. In short, the locusts that just flew past the Red Sea will have amazing combat power, and hunger drives them to eat everything in front of them.
So after receiving Shi Min's notification, the polite Zhang Fan couldn't help but take action.
There is no way, at most, the families in northern Central Asia are super locust plagues passing through the border, and dozens of aristocratic families are collectively affected by billions of locusts. The three Persian Gulf families are the main forces of locusts. As long as the locusts cross the Red Sea, they will be the first stop to do these three.
No matter what these three families plant, if hundreds of billions of locusts pass by, there should be only stones left in the local area. Others that can be eaten and those that can be bitten by locusts will basically be gone.
So the gentle and elegant Zhang Fan was desperate. He had no idea after hearing it. There was nothing else in his mind except the word "self-destruction".
What does it mean that hundreds of billions of locusts may pass through my fiefdom?
Is this a fucking transit? He wants to knock on the bones and suck the marrow of our Hanoi Zhang family and eat them all!
Although Shi Min was beaten, he really could understand Zhang Fan. This is a family of the Three Dukes and a wealthy family for many generations. Zhang Fan's good temper may be included in history books, but understanding is useless.
"All the young and strong people in our three families will cross the sea to fight against Kushan. Is it possible to occupy a piece of land in the local area? Anyway, it is the worst, but being beaten to death, which is much better than starving to death." Zhang Fan watched Pei Mao carry out the last round of struggle, and Shi Min, who was beaten three times, sat opposite the three people with a bruised nose and a swollen face, watching the real leaders of the three families communicate.
"If we gather all the young and strong people, we can probably get more than 100,000 yuan, but this is only one wave. And even if we practice, most young and strong people are not qualified. In addition, we don't have enough armor and fight across the sea, and I'm afraid we won and can't stand it." Wang Bin said with a little despair.
"Well, after the East African locusts are diverted in the Persian Gulf, most of them will still arrive in Kushan, so even if you attack the coast of Kushan and take down some parts of the west coast of the Indian Ocean, it will not solve the problem." Shi Min said carefully.
The patriarchs of the three great tribes all looked at Shi Min fiercely when they heard this. Damn, I couldn't help but want to kill Shi Min.
"The best way now is to use the bunker, Wubao, and lentiled buildings like the earth and stone enclosed buildings. Our family has done the first wave of testing. The large-scale East African desert locusts have very high combat power. When they are hungry, they can even chew wood." Shi Min shrank down and then spoke cautiously, "It's okay if you don't say it, it's okay if you don't say it, and it's not okay if you say it."
"Is there no good way?" Pei Mao said crazy. After leaving the Central Plains and entering Central Asia, they heard that the Pei family was suddenly opened up and promoted to heaven. Their five sons performed more amazingly than the other, and they successfully built a wealthy family for Pei family. After a few years, the Pei family, which was originally unstable, can now be on par with the real Dingsheng wealthy family.
Originally, the three Persian Gulf families had an elite force just because they came. The Zhang family of Hanoi and Wang family of Shanyang needed to transform the family status from a normal system to a military aristocrat, give the Pei family face and let the other party stay with the last seat. As a result, after a few years, the Pei family really took this position firmly.
As a result, the locust plague came before this happy life was enjoyed. Moreover, it was a locust plague of this level. Pei Mao felt that he was really going crazy!
"It seems that there is no good way at the moment. Strategic weapons such as Seraph Ring cannot be used." Shi Min lowered her head and said, "I can only withstand it. This year the locust plague is destined to be launched. I can't stop it. I can only wait for the subsequent treatment to avoid it happening again."
"The population of our three families is more than two million. No matter how you think we can handle it, you are not afraid to tell you the truth. The food stored in our three families is not enough to supply so many people in any case." Zhang Fan looked at Shi Min with a cold expression.
Unlike the Yong family, which has only tens of thousands of people and is backed by a black soil that is backed by a port of unfrozen. There is no problem of reclamation. The three Persian Gulf families are only enough for the population they bring. The rest need to be continuously reclaimed. In fact, the major families in Central Asia are basically the same.
This is why the Yang family said that it was difficult to gain something, but after so many years of land reclamation and continuous population purification, the core area of the Central Asian family has basically stabilized. This is why Chen Xi asked his middle-level generals to come here to study, because at this point in time, he could really learn a lot.
"Unlike those aristocratic families in the north, those people will be able to transport grain from New South Wales at least to bear the loss." Wang Bin said with a dark face.
The distance between these three families is too far, so far that they can't be transported, or the loss cannot be afforded.
Before leaving, Shi Min was hit hard by the heads of the three families, and even several places were cracked, but the anger was not eliminated and the problem was not solved.
"What should I do now?" Wang Bin half closed his eyes, his slightly exposed eyes were a little unconscious, and he just looked at the coastline from a distance.
"Stop pretending, there is only one way now." Pei Mao said with cold eyes, "The problem is that how can we pass the Chen Hou's level?"
"If you don't do this, we have to die, let's do it." Zhang Fan exhaled and said, "People always have to survive to have a future. You two families do it directly. I wrote to Chen Zichuan and took all the responsibility. If something really happened, I will accept the beating and punishment. If you die, you will help my brother."
Wang Bin and Pei Mao looked at each other and nodded.
The next day, Kushan received news of grain collection at the ports on the west coast of the Indian Ocean, and the price given was much higher than the travel price. More importantly, the current collection was completed and there was no limit on grain collection.
The local merchants quickly dispatched after receiving the news and began to hoard grain and tried to sell it to the Persian Gulf. About thirteen or fourteen days later, a merchant who had smuggled with the Han family in the Persian Gulf tentatively transported a ship of grain. After successfully receiving the current payment of goods of 5 times the current price, the merchants on the west coast of Kushan began to dispatch on a large scale.
"There is not enough money, so sorry." The three families quickly consumed all their gold, silver, and copper coins. Unless these smuggling merchants were so awesome that they could hook up with the Han Dynasty, it would be impossible to accept the exchanges in Chen Xi's hands.
It’s not that these smuggling merchants think there is something wrong with Chen Xi’s redeem tickets, but that they cannot conduct large-scale smuggling with the Han Dynasty. Otherwise, they would also accept the retention rate of the Han Dynasty’s redeem tickets.
Therefore, when the three Persian Gulf companies said that the cash payment was not enough, the grain merchants prepared to cut off the transaction without hesitation, but then the three families took out information to offset the payment.
After all, when it comes to this point, time is money. At the latest, the second round of locust plagues should take off from East Africa. This time the scale is completely enough to directly hit the Red Sea. There is only such a short time difference. The three families dare not delay at all. Even if they take out banned materials, they have to transport Kushan’s food and grass to their own warehousing.
As for whether he would be investigated and killed directly afterwards with banned materials, Zhang Fan, as the head of the family, had already written a letter of love, and at that time he would die.
Anyway, if you don’t change it, you will die more. Zhang Fan might even die. It would be better to change it. Maybe you can handle it. After all, you are in a hurry to be in power, and Chen Xi is still reasonable in some matters.
It is impossible to drag it. At this time, you must exchange the food and grass as quickly as possible. Otherwise, the locusts that cover the sky and the sun will rush to the Persian Gulf. Even if the greedy Kushan grain merchants do not realize that these locusts can rush to their Kushan, they will probably take it as a matter of course to start the price.
Everyone is not fool, okay, so it is absolutely worth it to be as fast as possible now, even if it is a so-called low-priced sale, under the premise that time is money now.
"Don't be so damn." Pei Qian said with a smile, "Those who can do such big business and smuggle are all backstages. Although we can't afford to pay, it doesn't mean we don't have other materials to exchange. Bartering is also a way of thinking, right?"
"Silk and porcelain are also hard currency." Kushan grain merchants said that Kushan did not lack food, and the advantage of ripening three times a year was too obvious. In addition, the low castes were not considered humans, and the food and grass of the Kushan Empire were never a problem, so grain merchants didn't care why the three Persian Gulf families had to buy grain on a large scale. For them, it was profitable to sell it.
No one would think that the grain merchants collected the grain. Sorry, these grains and grass are all theoretical inventory of Kushan. Why did Xun Qi make the Fire Dragon burning warehouse at that time? It was because this matter was a common case in Kushan and it was not an accident at all. Most of the middle-level bureaucrats knew it.
It is because of this idea that the grain in Kushan is not easy to sell, because they are selling grain, and they don’t know who to sell it to. I feel that every country has grain and is not short of grain.
But even so, if the lower castes should eat grass leaves, they still have to eat grass leaves. Even if the country does not lack food, even if some of the stored food and grass are broken, it is not the turn of the lower castes to eat rice!
Pei Qian looked at the ugly face of the Kushan grain merchants and was very helpless. Apart from the people who were eating, the top silk and white porcelain had long been sold to Rome for various things, so how could they be kept until now?
"It's not those things, but information." Pei Qian said with a dark face.
"The information is not worth much." The Kushan grain merchants had no interest in the information on Pei Qian. Pei Qian felt that his blood pressure was rising. There was no way. He was really defeated. He had thought about various situations, but he never thought that this would happen.
"The country kings behind you need it. This is a customization process of special talents from nothing to something. It contains important talent architecture logic and the thinking process of how to train a certain talent from nothing to something." Pei Qian said coldly, and the grain merchant was stunned.
Even if you have never been exposed to some things, you can tell how important this kind of thing is just by listening to a name. For example, the technical ratio of space elevator construction and related materials is something that you must try as long as you are still a normal person and know that you have the opportunity to get this thing.
The guy who can be a dog for the king of the country still has some eyesight and does not have a pure stupid person. So when Pei Qian spoke, the grain merchant restrained his indifferent expression and looked at Pei Qian with a little hesitation and solemnity.
"How do we verify the authenticity of this information?" the grain merchant asked with some concern.
Pei Qian tore a stack of information from the middle in front of the grain merchant. If you find an internal energy and leave the body, you will give this half to the person who understands it. He will tell you the answer. Although half is missing, some things can be understood by professionals. Pei Qian threw the upper half of the information to the grain merchant.
After the grain merchant took it, he had almost no hesitation and asked the internal energy that had always protected him to leave the body and take this information back to the local area, go to Gujarat to find a professional person to confirm.
Less than a day later, the inner qi that had left before, which flew back with information, brought three inner qi out of the body, one of which was the great nobleman of Gujarat, Ahmada, the younger brother of Gujarat who went to participate in the Nordic War.
"We want the information, what do you want? Do we need our Kushan to provide shelter?" Ahamada looked at Pei Qian and said.
"We need seventy ships of food and grass, mainly refined grain." Pei Qian looked at the four internal energy leaving their bodies without any panic. The Yang family sent King Xiang back, so as long as the group of people on the other side dared to rob, Pei Qian didn't care about taking action.
"There are too many. If your data has a more accurate description, a complete and systematic cultivation method, complete infantry exercises details, pattern comparison, and secret medicines needed in the cultivation process of elite backbone, then the seventy ships are not a problem. Although this data is worth it now, it is not such a value method!" Ahmada shook his head and refused.
The three Persian Gulf families are not crazy. Although they have decided to exchange certain information for food, they will not produce the most core information. However, even the old version of the information will also contain an understanding and view of the talent structure. This way of thinking is actually the most important part of talent development. Ahamada can recognize this, so he flew over directly.
"Are you a Bei Guiren?" Pei Qian saw Ahamada's head shaking and realized that the other party was not a Nan Guiren. Nan Gui shook his head and agreed. He couldn't help but be surprised. Can Beigui take out so much food? This is too nonsense.
"No, I am a Kushan." Ahmada said with a smile, "There are too many seventy ships. What you want is too urgent. If you don't have to hurry, I can collect it for you, but it is impossible for you to collect it this month. In fact, you can't find a second Tuban that can get more food and send it to you at such a time."
Gujarat is in the westernmost part of India in later generations, and has two major ports, which is convenient for smuggling. Therefore, Ahmada is not joking. In this time, only Gujarat can collect all the food and grass for them. Other states, just sending the food and grass to the port, has exceeded the time.
"If there is more complete information, can you take out seventy ships of food and grass?" Pei Qian frowned, and he also realized that time was too tight.
"If there is the complete set of information I mentioned before, I can lead troops to rob the navy's reserve grain and grass for you and send it to you." Ahamada said very calmly, leaving Pei Qian with nothing to say.
"Seventy ships of food and grass can be eaten, and they will not die." Pei Qian was silent for a while and said. Although Ahamada did not explain in detail, he had already made a briefing. If you want to do seventy ships according to quality and quantity at this time, don't think about it. Moreover, I am the only seller, and what I give is the real price.
