2128 Redemption

"Hehe, it costs 500,000 taels a week, and it's just going out to deceive people. The price is really not low, but I can still pay the price. I can see that everyone on your side is He worked hard. There is no problem with silver or anything. The most important thing is to put it into use as soon as possible. Now that this thing is made, what do you think I will use it for?" Li Cong looked at Bai Er and said, this At that time, the two of them had already walked out of the place where they were just now. When Li Cong's entourage heard Li Cong's words, they hurried out one by one. Although they were all people who took genetic medicine, Sometimes it’s better not to know some things. The best way to keep secrets is to know as few people as possible. They are all people who do things below, and there is nothing wrong with them without them, so They all understand what they are doing. It’s better not to hear such words. Those are conversations between high-level people. It’s better not to listen to people like them. Bai Er was also puzzled when he heard what Li Cong said. Don’t these things create magicians? The idea of ​​creating magicians is naturally an invasion of the magicians union. So far, there is a little bit of mystery in the entire continent that is the people of the magicians union. , If it weren’t for their tight organization, and if the magicians were too rare, the people from the Cao’s House of Business would probably have been able to get in. Now all those who got in were doing some subordinate things, but there was no news at all. .

"Boss, I don’t quite understand what you mean. Didn’t you tell me that we have encountered a bottleneck in all aspects of our development now? We have no way to expand. Now the only way is to deal with the magician. The people of the union have started, but the magician union has such an iron rule, that is, if you are not a magician, no matter how clever or important you are, you are a peripheral person who can never enter their core area. Is it now? Was it changed to another purpose?" Bai Er's mind also wandered around very quickly, but he still felt that the gap between himself and Li Cong was too much, and Li Cong didn't know what he thought. .Just like this base in front of me.When I heard Li Cong's idea at the beginning, my first thought was that the boss's brain seemed to be abnormal. He actually thought that he could create a magician. Can this be produced in batches?If so.How could the magician guilds of the four empires be equal to the royal families of the four empires.Look at the mages outside.Those who don't turn their nostrils toward the person in front of them are born to be an absolute nobleman.Even those in the royal family are not in their eyes, because of what?There is only one reason, because people are magicians, rare magicians in the world, just one reason is enough, as for some other things, there is no need to say, this is where the domineering of the magician lies. , Is also the source of their confidence.

"Hehe, in fact, you should be able to guess, but if you didn’t guess, it’s okay if I tell you. So far, our Cao’s firm is just as you said, we’ve reached a bottleneck. In many cases, the expansion we want to continue is either inappropriate here or there is something wrong, and I also feel that the people below are also a little confused. They are all fighting for the future of Cao’s business, but they are all now. It’s reached their goal, and even exceeded it a lot, so many people don’t know what to do. What I have to do now is to give them a direction. Although the main force of our Caojia Commercial Bank has also reached the county seat Wait for some places, but generally speaking, some of the forces in this county are very large. They are all local stocks that have strength. They are not very good when viewed individually, but if they are all If we unite, even some large forces in the province are probably not their opponents. After all, are they all local snakes, but if we can organize and unite these scattered things, I believe it is for all The great empire is also a big shock, but you can’t just come to talk about it with others. It’s only after the people on both sides have a relationship that you can talk about it. It’s not easy for ordinary people to have a relationship with them. Yes, but if there is a magician at your door, it will be completely different. Who doesn’t want to have a relationship with a magician, even if you see it once, you can praise it, let alone others. I'm going to come to your home to make friends with you, so I can't find myself in the north." Li Cong said his thoughts.

Bai Er on the side digested this thing in the fastest time, but it took about five minutes. If Wu Zuoxi came, this time might be shortened a lot, but Li Cong did not pursue it. Putting apples in one basket, Wu Zuoxi has now entered the core layer, even better than the people like Bai Er. He makes many large-scale decisions, so Li never I am going to continue this matter to Wu Zuoxi. Although there is no sign of opposition to me from now on, this matter in society is difficult to say. If I leave everything to him, then this guy will The power that can be controlled is much greater. People have their own power. If this is really grown, if it is not properly pruned, there will definitely be a certain tragedy. Li from now on What he did was not to give Wu Zuoxi the opportunity and not allow such people to rebel against him. Of course, Li Cong also hoped that Wu Zuoxi would not have this idea for the rest of his life, otherwise he could not be blamed.

Bai Er quickly understood what was going on. It turned out that Li Cong wanted to use these fake magicians to become the stepping stone of the big families, and tie them all to the chariots of the Cao family business. In this case, the Cao family The business people will lose part of their profits, but they can also quickly separate their own people. Now they need people very much. If they can hand over some less important transactions to these people.If there is another magician as security, then there is definitely no problem, but Bai Er saw Li Cong's eyes and felt that he had seen it somewhere, like a beast.

"Boss, this plan is only you can think of. If this thing can really be done, our forces will penetrate more quickly in the empires. At that time, besides some of the superficial forces, There will also be some secret forces developed, and sometimes these forces can help us a lot. For example, a capable person in a county town is nothing. But if they all gather together, it is probably the county grandfather. You will not offend them easily. What do you mean is that we are going to develop some unofficial forces? Use magicians as a guise to build bridges. Make an underground network that can compete with the government?" Bai Er is now Li Cong's plan was told to all.These things have been compiled a little bit.It can be said that if all this lie of Li Cong is completed, it will definitely bring Cao's House of Commerce to a higher level. Sometimes it is these forces that look bad.But if you link them all together, this is a huge cake. Now Li Cong has set his goal on this huge cake, but before that, I still have to control the cost. Look. Li Cong also feels that the cost of this base is a bit big while looking at the ledgers in the second hand. Although the future is very good, it would be better if he can control it a little bit.

"Basically the whole plan is like what you said, but there are some areas that need to be treated differently, and it must conform to some local laws. If we can't follow some local trends, our plan may die. Yes, sometimes these things are very important. By the way, tell me about your situation here. How long will it take to provide me with the first batch of magicians if it is mass-produced? What I want is just now. That kind, I can’t see that it is a man-made magician, and I believe those in the magician’s union will certainly not see it. How much money has been spent on this one since I entered it, I have to have some in my heart. Count, we must know that in the future, we will definitely cultivate a large number of magicians, and we must conceal the identity of a magician for them. Now the entire empire can be said that there will be no magician in a year. It’s difficult to come out. If we show up so many all at once, it will also arouse others’ suspicion. If someone is interested in investigating, this matter may be exposed at any time. At that time, our Cao family Business firms can have fun. At that time, the magician guilds of the four empires will all look at us. No matter how we explain it, it doesn’t matter. I feel that their combat power is stronger than the four empires. This war After that, we won’t be afraid of the people of the four empires and they will understand our strength, but we should all be more careful about the wizards’ union.” Li Cong thought of some horrors within the wizards’ union Characters, I am actually a little scared in my heart. These guys are not seeing the end of the dragon. Who knows their true strength, some people have not appeared in society for a long time, this one This hidden strength is very powerful.

Speaking of the issue of spending, Bai Er is not someone who has never seen money before. From the beginning of Li Cong's business to the present, I have never seen how much money. Any one of the first-level managers of Cao's firm has hundreds of billions in hands His money is flowing, and now he has trillions of money in his hands, but this plan is so expensive but he did not expect something. He first took out a ledger, first of all, there are more than 300 people here, each Moonlight’s salary was 30 million taels of silver. After the money was given to them, they would not do anything. They had to give them some things for their family. Sometimes the cost would increase, just like this month. , The money they only have is 40 million taels of silver. Li didn’t feel much when he saw this figure. This little money was still spent on his own. You must know that the front lines are paid for this money almost every day. It’s still a lot of money for a month. Besides, these are all magic apprentices. They are not simple characters. Only one out of 100,000 people will come out. Such people give people some relatively good salary. It's nothing, if they don't leave if they are paid ordinary people's salary, it's only strange that they don't leave. It's just that the things that Bai Er said next make Li never have such an idea, and he also feels that spending money is really great.This is the first time Li Cong feels that spending money is a problem, and this will have to catch up with Xiaoao, who was a silver eater.

It’s not that this magic apprentice can become the same immediately after drinking those potions. They still need to transform their bodies. They need about two months, because their bodies are just magic apprentices. They can only sense some magic elements, but they don't know what magic elements flow in their bodies. They all need to be improved by some drugs, even some monsters.They had to drink various drugs about 60 times during this month.These medicines cost 200,000 taels of silver each time. These 60 times are 12 million taels of silver. This is just one person. You must know that there are more than 300 people here.This is 3.6 billion silver.This is also spent in one month.Just now I felt that 40 million taels of silver was nothing at all, but now that 3.6 billion silvers can't be regarded as nothing, even Li Cong felt that the cost was a bit too high.It's not that I feel sorry for the money, but because the number of people is too small. On average, a person costs tens of millions of taels. This may be a seventh-level fighter from the training camp on the fighter side, but here Just came out a fake magician. To be honest, if you really fight, that 7th-level warrior can kill all these 300 fake magicians without breathing, but he can think of the social effects of those magicians. It feels that this thing is not impossible. What a seventh-level fighter cannot do, these fake magicians seem to have no problems.

This is just the beginning, and the next thing will be even more serious. The potion they drank was a bottle of 500,000 taels of silver. If they went out to walk the rivers and lakes, each person had to carry at least more than 20 bottles. Otherwise, it might be seen by people. This is another 10 million taels of silver, and they have to send a team to cooperate with them. These people spend a lot of money. Li Cong feels tired. It can be said that the price of every fake magician is more than 50 million taels of silver. Originally, Li Cong wanted to produce it on a large scale, but now it seems that he doesn’t need it anymore. Just use these 300 to try the water first. Good guy, it’s a damn 15 billion silver. If you get them all, how much is it? My plan hasn’t brought me any profit yet. Well, all of the 15 billion dollars have gone out. It is estimated that this kind of investment method is that I have such courage. It is estimated that they will never spend so much money to complete this after changing the emperors of the four empires. This is something that has no prospects at all. Of course, if this thing is done well, Cao’s House of Business will go up several steps in the future. Li Cong directly shelved his expansion plan and must see it. Only when the effect is reached, Li Cong is going to let Bai Er put these hundreds of people into practice quickly, otherwise, even if the loss is so much, the experiment will have to be closed immediately. It is really this experiment too. I can't afford it if I spend money.

"Bai Er, I didn't expect that this plan would be so difficult to implement now. If I thought that the silver issue would be fine before, but now our war is not over, and the people of the other three empires are just superficial. I was frightened by us. If they don’t do anything else, it’s no problem to support this research. Our Cao’s firm will have no problem. But if we fail on the battlefield, it is estimated that the other three empires will quickly freeze us. In some industries in various countries, if we do this, we will lose our source of income. The large amount of money we have earned in the past cannot be arbitrarily moved. This is like a river. If it flows every day, we I can't see anything if I take out some randomly, because it will be added soon, but if the river is not flowing, things will not be so good. Maybe if we take some randomly, our life But it’s really difficult, so we must be cautious. Your development here is good. Later, we will see what kind of people these people can help us to contact. Ten people are released every year, and they are The four empires applied for photos of magicians, and the others would just pretend to be the first. Anyway, the Magician Union thinks that they are the number one in the world, and no one will pretend to be them. If they are discovered, there is no way, only It’s to kill them all." Li Cong had a trace of identification in his eyes. This is also impossible. When a superior person sometimes needs to consider how to send his own person to death, to help himself keep the secret Save it. Although I don't like to do this, I can't do anything but this.

Hearing that it is possible will kill these people, Bai Er also feels uncomfortable in his heart, these people themselves are regarded as treasures, but think of the highest interests of the Cao Family Commercial Firm.This is nothing more.These people are all like this one by one, even if they are killed, it doesn't matter. The magic apprentice seems to be a high class person in society.But it involves a large organization like Cao's Commercial Bank.Their lives are nothing.The next two people talked about other things, which were all improvements to this research base, and some of the methods Li Cong proposed were also practical.For example, letting these researchers have a professional title, instead of a simple system of just such a big pot meal, allows them to form a small group of their own, and let them be responsible for the public relations project. Besides, they have to give them some Financial assistance is only possible, such as rewards. Although it is impossible for them to go out, the construction of this island must also be quickly started. At least it must be a good town. Otherwise, If the scientists here take a long time, some bad things will happen. When the time comes, these people will be mentally disordered, which is their biggest loss. I don’t want such a situation. These are all Need to pay attention.

On the front-line battlefield, this event was basically over. In one night, everything was completely different from yesterday. 1.2 million Royal Guard Cavalry Corps troops were captured and 130,000 deaths. People, 270,000 people were injured. It can be said that this legion has been beaten and disabled, and the remaining people are of little use. Other legions have also come out to help. More than 500,000 casualties have been killed and millions of people have been injured. Prisoner, the crown prince himself was injured. It is estimated that one arm has been broken, but it does not matter. People like the crown prince can get any kind of good medicine. These things are not for others. Possibly, it can only be dragged with his mutilated limbs for a lifetime, but for this person, it is fine. On the third day of the injury, someone from the capital brought the medicine over, but it was still a return. There is another imperial decree, which basically means that the court felt that the prince’s health was a little bad, so there was no need to stay on the front line. It would be better to return to the capital. The second prince on the capital was already prepared. Coming here, he will serve as the new marshal to command the three armies. For the prince, it is better to have both arms broken. This news is the most deadly news for him, the second prince. He has always been a figure in the real power in the army. This is no way. There are not a few people who know military affairs among their brothers, so this second prince is a little capable. Others are not good at all. The emperor is called He was forced to come.

The prince knew that he had been planted this time. After returning to the capital, he would definitely not be the same as before. This time his failure can be said to be a miserable loss. He pushed himself to the opposite of most gentry. Because the Southern Empire’s princes and buddies have died so many, most of them are their most beloved sons or grandsons. Such a result is not wanted by anyone. Of course, the Cao’s family members must be Those who want this result very much. In their opinion, some things are like this. This can also make Cao’s businessmen more fully prepared. The coach of the Southern Empire has not yet come. After this failure, they have even more It won’t come out easily, and the Cao’s family firm does not have the ability to attack. The war may enter a certain stalemate. Without the transportation of airships, the second prince of the Southern Empire would have to be on the front line at the earliest. Here, this Cao family firm can quickly send more than 2 million troops to the front line through this period of time, which can make its own strength a little stronger. Although there is still a huge gap with the Southern Empire, no matter what. , This disparity can be reduced a lot, so that most people in the Southern Empire can know that Cao’s family firm is also strengthening itself. Of course, Cao’s family firm also introduced a redemption policy. This is the prisoners of war. , You can all take money to buy them back.If the ordinary soldiers in the past were naturally unable to sell them, the Southern Empire would not buy them back, nor would the Cao’s family firm sell them. There is a reason for this, but these people are not the same. Now, these people are from the rich and can sell money.

For ordinary soldiers, when they are defeated, they will no longer have those ordinary identities. They can only obey the instructions above and become slaves.The court here will not give them any money.Besides, even if they were willing to pay the money, Cao's family firm would not sell it back, because after returning home, wearing a military uniform or something might immediately become effective.This is absolutely unacceptable to the people of Cao's Commercial Bank.And for people of this age.Prisoners of war have no effect at all. Those who die on the battlefield can be treated the best, but those who surrender have no one to care about them.Every time the war is over, the Cao’s house will spend money to buy those people back, but the people in the four empires feel that the Cao’s house’s people have a problem with their brains. How could they do such a thing? Is your brain rusty?These people all have some emotions of failure. What role can they do?Of course, this is what Li Cong said. No one can understand things on the battlefield better than the prisoners of war. They cannot go on the battlefield for the time being, so they can go to the military school. In the school, they can Everything about me was taught to the recruits. They are all the most competent officers, and Li Cong often tells his men that it is the most important thing to live on the battlefield, and everything else is a cloud. What kills you? , That's bullshit, people are dead, what's the use of victory, even if it is a failure, as long as people are or, they can make up for it in the future.

But the members of the Royal Guard Cavalry Corps are completely different. Even if these people are not paid out by the Southern Empire, their families will definitely pay out. Of course, there will be many of them. The eldest sons of these people used to have inheritance rights. Now something has happened and they are prisoners of war. After going back, they will naturally have no inheritance rights, but the Cao’s family members will definitely not just let them. Depressed, there will definitely be some way for them to regain control of the family's rights. Even if they can't become the heir, they can make a huge wave in their family. By then everything will be over, Nan Of course, the empire did not see Li Cong’s sinister intentions. These families would certainly buy their people back for their own face. Of course, they didn’t buy them and use them as good people, just to save face. That's it, and what Cao's firm did not expect is that they have started bidding one by one. How can your young master bid 700,000 taels of silver? Why is my family only 500,000 taels of silver? What means?Do you guys from the Cao family firm look down on our family members?How can we make our family cheaper than his family?Does it feel like we are inferior to their family?Our young master is not as good as their young master?This kind of thing almost made them fight one by one. Of course, Li didn't know about these things from here, and these were all later things.

Such things as redemption did not happen before, but they did not redeem it like this when they redeemed it. Generally speaking, for example, the Southern Empire had a war with the Northern Empire, and all the prisoners of war from the Northern Empire were also required. They were brought to the southern empire and sold at the price of slaves. It is impossible to be much more expensive. The current redemption has surprised all the people in the southern empire. Everyone knows the Cao family firm. The people who will make money will make money, but they didn’t expect to make money like they are now. They all give people a clear price. These young masters used to buy and sell people in the slave market. They never thought that one day they would become the object of being bought and sold. Some of them were not even willing to go back to their homes because they knew that if they went back, they would not have the same days before. A person who knows what a person abandoned by a family is like, even if they live in a family, those days will not be the same as before. Many people may not be able to stand the oppression and become not a normal person. Because they know this very well, they all don't want to go back, but there is no other way. They often choose passively.Just like now, this matter cannot be decided by them, and it is impossible to keep it, because you are a shiny gold, and you can sell for a minimum of fifty thousand taels of silver. This captured more than one million people. Hundreds of billions of silver, don't you make this money?

Just like a young master from the earl's mansion, coming to the battlefield was his lifelong wish, different from those in the family.There is not so much intrigue in his mind.The things of these people made him look very uncomfortable. Although he was the eldest son, he was a person of low status in the family, but because he had the support of his father.As long as his father is still there.There will be no change in his status.His father will also consider things for him, that is, let him practice on the front line, and when he comes back with this resume, he will replace the earl.Who knows that something like this is happening now. He is the same as most people. What he thought in his heart was that he might as well die as he was. He still remembered the situation at the time, and many people didn’t know. What should I do? There are airships everywhere in the sky. The kind of things on the ground is surprising. He can kill dozens of people in one minute. Such things directly killed his horses. Without the horse, this can only be escaped with everyone. The cavalry knows that as long as they lose their horse, their destiny will not be very good, and the result will be exactly the same as he imagined. Yes, they were all driven into a large flat land, and the army of tens of thousands of Cao's houses around them took them as prisoners.This is the most humiliating thing for him, but he has no other way, even if he wants to die, it is impossible.

After he was defeated, he went to the barracks of Cao’s business, where he saw many things that he hadn’t seen before. Of course, they wouldn’t get those powerful weapons. What they did every day was Strengthen the fortifications outside, and there is nothing else. The food is still very good. Not to mention that you are the son of an earl. Even the young master of the duke’s family has nothing to do. They all have to eat honestly. Something better than soldiers, but it’s different here. There is no miscellaneous noodles at all. What they eat is buns with white noodles. The rich food in the capital seems to be too far away from them. Eating this food and pickles also feel delicious in the world. Compared with those who are already dead, my life is very good now, at least my head is still on my head?However, their food is not enough compared to the people in Cao’s house. The people in Cao’s house eat meat buns and even broth. I heard that they have stipulated that everyone must have it every day. Half a catty of meat must be eaten, otherwise the physical strength will not keep up. It is said that these items were purchased from the occupied areas of the Southern Empire, and many merchants in the Southern Empire gave them to the Cao's business. The army sent pork, they all forgot. This army was fighting with the Southern Empire. From their point of view, it seemed to them that the rule of the Cao's House of Business had already been accepted. They forgot that they were a Southern Empire. Of the people.

These are nothing. The most important thing is the redemption policy created by the people of Cao's Commercial Bank. This makes me feel like a livestock. I have visited the slave market in the capital many times, but I didn't expect that I would also do it. Isn’t it surprising to become someone like those slaves? He thought of this thing before, but he felt that after his family had no power, he was made like that by the Emperor. I didn’t expect that the people from Cao’s House of Commercial Bank had made him what he is now. How embarrassed he was. He saw that several people around him were the same as him. They must have the same thoughts in their hearts. I would never believe that one day he would become slaves. I would never dream of such a thing, but now it is true that he was priced at 1.5 million taels of silver. This money is nothing to me, that is, one year. That’s all for his pocket money. In fact, he is also uncomfortable in his heart. He is worth that little money?He saw the old housekeeper in his family. The old housekeeper is his father’s confidant. This time he must have been let by his father. His mother left early, and his father has always taken care of him. It seems that the family members must also be Knowing that he was defeated, he would not have any good days after he went back, but he thought of the officer from the Cao Family Commercial Firm who found him one day, and that person’s words were still in his mind. Can someone contact me?It must be difficult to go back by yourself. If you can cooperate with that person, maybe everything is not what you are in front of you, and the forces of these people are united.

One day, when he had just finished his work, an officer from the Cao’s family business came and said something to him: “You know that even if you go back, you don’t have a good life, your family members , Your friends, even your wives and children will not treat you the same as before. Do you know why? That’s because you have all become captives. In this society, captives have no status. Do you still want the same days as before? If you want, the people at Cao’s Commercial Bank will help you. The people here are in the same situation as you. They will definitely have a hard time after they go back. I don’t know if you have thought about it. If you guys are united, this is also a big force. What we do is to give you a platform. You can unite through us. Two useless people are nothing. Yes, but twenty? Who will bully you? You can help a person get a status first, and in exchange, he will help you later. In this way, at least half of you will be with your current status. Almost, besides, our Caojia Commercial Bank will still have our people on your site. If we want to do something, there is no problem. It can be done by helping you. I don’t know if you have this idea. What?" That person's words appeared again, he was really a little tempted, many times such things were very attractive, especially for prisoners of his own rank. (To be continued...)
