I’m The King

As night fell, the city of Yingchuan County was brightly lit. Tan Feng stood on the tower, gazing at the star-like lights extending from under his feet to the distance, from here to there.

"Did you see it? There is Yingshui City." Raising his hand, Tan Feng pointed to the distance. Above that direction, there was a bright light towering high in the night sky, which was higher than the lights in other places. Out a big chunk.

"It's hard to imagine that this is actually the front line of the confrontation between the two armies." Mr. Zhao shook his head. "If you are a newcomer, you would think this is a city."

Tan Feng smiled and said: "In the past, there was a huge wilderness in the middle. It was a perfect battlefield for the two armies to confront each other. But now, this place that should have been a battlefield has become a bazaar. That long dark place is the Yingshui River. We are on this side of the river, and they are on the other side of the river."

Mr. Zhao turned his head, looked at Tan Feng's angular profile, and said thoughtfully: "If you build a bridge over the river, you will almost never distinguish each other."

Tan Feng laughed loudly, "Don't tell me, a businessman from Han Dynasty really came to me and asked to build a bridge over this river with private funding. Do you want to know why he did this?"

"Is it necessary to say?" Mr. Zhao also laughed, "This person must have a background in Han, and he has built a bridge. There is nowhere to think that it will be more convenient for them to fight over when there is a war in the future!"

"Wrong!" Tan Feng shook his head and said, "The two sides really want to work. There is a bridge and no bridge. Is there a big difference? Mr. Zhao, you are not a member of the army, and you don't know much about war, right? "

"Oh. What does this businessman want to do? Build a bridge, but it costs a lot of money! Does he want to be a good man?" Mr. Zhao said in a bit of surprise.

"He doesn't want to be a good person!" Tan Feng sneered. "He wants to make money. He came to tell me that he has already negotiated with the Han country. As long as I agree, he will be able to build a bridge over the Yingshui River. Here. A reinforced concrete bridge costs five hundred thousand taels of silver."

Hear this number. Mr. Zhao was obviously taken aback, "So expensive?"

"Yes, mainly because steel is too expensive."

"How does he make money at such an expensive price? What do I use to make money? I drive this mountain, and I plant this tree. I want to go through the mountain and stay to buy road money?" Mr. Zhao jokingly said.

Tan Feng smiled and said: "Mr. Zhao got the right answer. He just wants to set up a card on the bridge and collect money at both ends. Mr. Zhao knows how much people flow between the two sides in a day? How many carriages are moved by boat every day? This person brought me a piece of statistical data, which really surprised me. It is said that these businessmen really do everything in order to make money. This person brought his river plan to the Yingshui River. It lasted a full month. Just to count people, vehicles, and goods stranded on both sides of the strait. According to this person’s statistics, if he was allowed to build the bridge, he would be able to pay back in just two years. Then, It’s a pure profit. He promised to give me 20% of the profit every year. I believe that he promised the Han army may also be the same amount."

"Five hundred thousand taels, pay back in two years. If it is Han's latest steel-concrete bridge construction technology, a bridge can be managed for at least dozens of years. After this calculation, it is a lucrative business. The only risk is the war between the two countries. , He may lose money, but as long as the current model exists for a few years, he will make a steady profit. They all say that the Han people are good at doing business, and they are really powerful." Mr. Zhao said.

"I was really moved. There is no bridge between the two countries. For the war between the two countries, there is not much difference, but the profit of 20% is a huge number for me. But thinking about it, I still give up. Now." Tan Feng shook his head.

"Why give up? So, isn't it a two-sided thing." Mr. Zhao said in a puzzled way.

"Mr. Zhao think about it again, shouldn't this trouble you?" Tan Feng smiled.

Mr. Zhao was silent for a moment, "I understand, political reasons, without this bridge, you can still withstand the pressure from Xianyang, but with this bridge, I am afraid that the voice of doubt from Xianyang can crush you. ."

"Yes! Sometimes, you may not be able to do the right thing." Tan Feng shook his head regretfully. "If there is a dividend of tens of thousands of taels of silver, I can train an extra army."

Mr. Zhao was silent for a moment, and suddenly said, "General Tan, can you introduce this businessman to me?"

"Why not?" Mr. Zhao said with a smile: "Since there is such a high profit, this is a good business, why not do it? The mountains and rivers in our great Chu are crisscrossed, but for this businessman, there are many business opportunities. !"

Tan Feng laughed blankly and shook his head. After a while, he said, "Mr. Zhao is not in a bar among the drunken men. What you value is the businessman's technology to build a bridge across Yingshui!"

"I want technology. This is not something money can buy, but making money is also very important. If fish and bear's paw can have both, wouldn't it be wonderful?"

"No problem, this businessman is still in Yingchuan now, and he hasn't given up his mind. He comes to pester me every few days. I am a little annoyed by him. If you can take him away, it will help me a lot. "Tan Feng smiled. "But if you can take him away, it's not for me. He is a native of Han, Mr. Zhao, I want to say first, you can't be strong. This man is also a well-known businessman in Han. And the Han people are the most protective of shortcomings. If such a person disappears here, there will be trouble, you know, who is garrisoned on the other side?"

"Of course there are two consensuals in this matter, but since Han people can sell everything as long as they make money, I think I can convince him. By the way, who did you just say is the garrison? I really don't know."

"In the past, Yingshui City, opposite, was stationed with the Chinese army camp of Xu Yuan, commander of the Northern Field Army of the Han Kingdom. In the small Yingshui City, tens of thousands of Han people were squeezed into, but now, there are only more than 10,000 soldiers left on the opposite side, the highest. The military leader is just a division commander, but this person is very famous, his name is Ye Feng."

"Ye Feng? The lofty brother-in-law?" Mr. Zhao was slightly startled, "So how old is it to bring an army of ten thousand people?"

"In the Han* team, young generals abound. Of course, this kind of relationship is indispensable for Ye Feng to come up. Speaking of which, this person is also related to you Chu people!" Tan Feng laughed.

"Are there relatives?" Mr. Zhao said in a bewildered manner: "Ye Feng comes from the Langya Ye family. How is it related to Da Chu? As far as I know, there is no record of intermarriage between Langya Ye family and Chu people!"

"This generation is there." Tan Feng said: "Ye Feng's wife is Qiao and her name is Qiao Rongniang. It's your Chu people. It's no secret that the major general's heart is about a beautiful woman, and the story of saving the United States from thousands of miles is now Han is compiled into a storybook and sung!"

Mr. Zhao looked at Tan Feng not as if he was joking, he couldn't help being a little embarrassed, hehe and he laughed a few times: "Is there really such a thing? That is really worth listening to, but I want to come, there is only such a dude , Can you do such a thing? Some people dare to do it, and you won’t be hacked by Gao Yuan alive. It’s also weird, Gao Yuan allows them to spread this kind of decent thing in the Wang family?"

Tan Feng smiled and shook his head. For this woman, Han Guo used their elite action team from the National Security Bureau. Gao Yuan was really precious to this little brother-in-law. Of course, the version circulated outside was of course Ye Feng’s hero saving the United States and rushing thousands of miles. , But satisfies the heroic plot of ordinary people. In terms of decentness, Tan Feng doesn’t think Gao Yuan would value him much. The newspapers also reported that he was pursuing Hubu Shangshu for salary. The guy who wrote this story is now known as Han Guo, so I don’t see Gao Yuan think of him. Up. After thinking about it, my mood suddenly became heavy again. Although both sides are brightly lit, there is still a very significant difference, that is, on the opposite side, and there are densely moving fire lights, which are when pedestrians are walking. The lanterns of Han, there is not a city that implements a curfew policy, even if it is a city on the border like Yingshui, it seems that the opponent’s defense is very lax, but if you think about it, it’s not the same. A confident performance?

The gap between the national strength of the two sides is getting bigger and bigger, and even if Qin is really chasing after him, I am afraid it is too late. Fan Xiang is changing the dynasty, and there is a lot of resistance. Now there is the trouble in Shu County. I am afraid that the situation is even more difficult. Tan Feng has already submitted a letter, suggesting that Fan Sui must do his best to put out the rebellion in Shu County, because Tan Feng has seen from the inside. The shadow of the intervention of the Han people, and Zhou Liang’s thousands of soldiers buried in the canyon is too strange. Zhou Liang knows ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ With this talent, he would never enter Biandanya in such an inexplicable way. Jedi.

Mr. Zhao noticed Tan Feng's sudden and uninteresting attitude, and said, "General Tan, I have disturbed the general for a day today. I am really tired. I want to go back and have a good rest, so I'll leave. "

Tan Feng came back to his senses, "Mr. still accustomed to living in the post house?"

"People who have been away for many years can live there. What's more, your post here is much stronger than other places. You should leave tomorrow, but now it's still a few days of interruption. "Mr. Zhao smiled.

"It's okay!" Tan Feng waved his hand.

Where can Mr. Zhao who returned to the post house sleep? These days in Yingchuan, he has indeed confirmed the Shoufu’s judgment on Tan Feng. This person is indeed talented, but he is not easy to control. Say he is loyal to the State of Qin, but his attitude towards his proposal is ignorant. Say that he is unfaithful, what he did in Yingchuan, but he is really doing his best for Qin, a very complicated person. Chu Guo wanted to recruit this person, but he had to be cautious.

After writing this letter, I brought up my pen and wrote another letter, but it was about the bridge. (To be continued)
