Chapter 611
Wei Yuan didn't know about the decree of the Tang Chamber, and even if he knew, he wouldn't take it to heart.
Just like when he became the Dingxi Regional Commander from a commoner, this Azure Void, this position of second-rank Regional Commander was fought for by himself, not by anyone's reward.
Now Azure Void has begun to expand slowly, and there are countless things for Wei Yuan to do. Just sending people to explore the surrounding terrain is a huge workload.
Not to mention going far, just exploring more than a hundred miles outward, expanding from more than 400 miles to 600 miles, the increase in this area is already a terrifying number.
Now that there are enough people, based on the principle of not letting people be idle, Wei Yuan organized 300,000 people to prepare to reclaim another 2 million mu of land. After the reclamation is completed, there will be 8 million mu in total.
Since Wei Yuan decided to sell silk, ten days passed in the blink of an eye. The chambers of commerce transported the silk in stock to Azure Void one after another, but there was less than 1 million catties that could be transported.
The masters of the chambers of commerce were naturally helpless. As soon as they returned to Azure Void, they poured out their bitterness, complaining about what kind of coercion and inducement they had received, etc. But how could such rhetoric deceive Wei Yuan? At a glance, he knew that someone had received benefits and then sold the goods to the other party.
However, such things were also within Wei Yuan's expectations. He had already recorded all the masters who violated his orders, and those with particularly serious circumstances had already been excluded from subsequent plans.
At this time, the 50th weaving machine workshop had been built and tested successfully, and began to produce brocade. After Wei Yuan inspected all the workshops, he called a halt to subsequent plans and transferred all the cultivators back to the weapon forging workshop to continue producing infantry cannons and cannonballs with all their strength.
Fifty brocade weaving workshops can produce nearly 20,000 pieces of brocade a day, which is enough to support the next step of the plan.
Previously, Wei Yuan found that he had ignored a problem, that is, the brocade shop and the forces behind the brocade shop would definitely not sit still and wait for death. They would definitely try every means to resist and struggle, and might jump over the wall in a hurry, triggering another battle.
And although the Rain Country was repelled at this moment, Azure Void's strength was also greatly consumed, and there were no strong enemies around, so it was in a state of being fat but not strong. Wei Yuan felt that perhaps someone wanted to jump out and reap the benefits again.
Subsequently, Wei Yuan received news that the Shaman tribe's caravan had arrived.
Wei Yuan had already calculated the time. When the caravan sold the silk back to the Xu family brocade shop, he had already notified Tianyu to come and collect the goods. During this period, the workshops built in the early stage had produced 800,000 pieces of machine brocade one after another, plus the stock from the previous period, Wei Yuan was prepared to give Tianyu 1 million pieces.
In just three months, Tianyu had expanded like a balloon. His physique had grown at least twice in all aspects. Now he was two heads taller than Wei Yuan, and Wei Yuan's head couldn't even reach his pectoral muscles.
Such a huge Tianyu was carried down from the car by eighteen Shaman girls. Wei Yuan looked for a long time and asked suspiciously: "Where are you hurt? None of the five legs are broken, right?"
Tianyu said lazily: "These little beautiful Shamans will be my hands and feet in the future. They are even more intimate than my own hands and feet. Let me show you what the life of a rich Shaman is like."
As he said, Tianyu gave a demonstration. I saw him open his big mouth, and a Shaman young woman next to him immediately poured a vat of body-tempering medicine into his bottomless mouth.
Tianyu chewed with a clicking sound, and fire kept spraying out of his nostrils. It seemed that the medicinal power of this vat of medicine was quite strong. Subsequently, Tianyu's aura began to climb slowly, and his cultivation actually began to rise just like that.
As soon as his aura moved, Wei Yuan found that Tianyu was already a mid-stage Dharma-form big Shaman! This cultivation speed was chasing Wei Yuan.
And there was a wisp of dry and desolate aura in his aura, which did not look like the aura of this world. So Wei Yuan asked: "Have you already been to the Desolate Realm?"
Tianyu nodded proudly: "That's right, not only did I successfully enter, but I also established a small source land there. It's a pity that I can't tell you much about the situation in the Desolate Realm, otherwise you would understand how genius I am to be able to establish a source land at this time!"
But looking at Tianyu's hemiplegic appearance, Wei Yuan couldn't connect him with the word "genius" no matter what.
"Did you bring everything?"
"5 million catties of thunder sand, 5 million catties of gray stone, not a single bit less. There were too many goods, and I was exhausted from moving this trip." Tianyu complained. Although he was moved by the beautiful Shamans, his body was not tired, but looking at so many goods, Tianyu felt tired in his heart, so he felt that he had also exerted great effort.
Wei Yuan said: "I have prepared 1 million pieces of brocade for you. In terms of quality, my brocade is much better than those old brocades of the Xu family. You sell this batch of brocade for 20 taels, don't add a single tael. Sell as much as you can, and I will give you 500,000 pieces in a month, and the price will be pressed to 15 taels."
Tianyu looked at Wei Yuan deeply, pondered for a moment and said: "We have some land here suitable for planting mulberry, do you want to rent it? The elders are worried that your silk here will not be enough." The elders of the Desolate Ancestor tribe are quite far-sighted... Wei Yuan complained in his heart, and then said: "Aren't you afraid that I won't return it after renting?"
Tianyu grinned and said: "Actually, my suggestion is to buy it, it's not much more expensive than the rent. The environment where our tribe lives daily is drier than ordinary Shaman domains, which is more suitable for human offerings to live. You can buy some offerings to plant mulberry and then regularly produce offerings."
Wei Yuan became serious and said: "Human sacrifice is my bottom line, I will never send any person to your altar!"
Tianyu was a bit disapproving: "Aren't there few offerings you sold to us? Besides, even if you don't sell, there are plenty of people selling... Alright, alright, I won't say it. It's fine if you don't want to give offerings, just pay some brocade as tax according to the land area every year."
Wei Yuan looked at the direction of that piece of land, which was a full 3,000 miles away from Azure Void, and the location was very strange, very close to the Lei Ze tribe.
"This piece of land shouldn't be yours, right?"
Tianyu chuckled and said: "I said you would see it, the ancestor didn't believe it! Hey, ancestor, you lost, remember two great-great-grandsons! After I go back, I will pick!"
The face of the Great Desolate Day floated from the void and said angrily: "You have no choice! Whichever one I give you is which one!"
Subsequently, he turned to Wei Yuan and said seriously: "Strictly speaking, that piece of land was originally ours, but later it was snatched away by the Lei Ze tribe for more than half. It is very suitable for human offerings to live, so everyone is fighting for it. If you are willing to send troops, I can block the Ghost Shaman of the Lei Ze tribe for you. After occupying it, all the human sacrifices on it belong to you."
"How many people are on this land?"
"Probably 200,000, maybe 300,000, it's not very clear."
!
"Good, then take an oath!"
The Great Desolate Day appeared in his entire figure, with a solemn expression. Just after saying "Ancestor Shaman is above", he was interrupted by Wei Yuan, and then Wei Yuan handed over a thick notebook, which was full of dense terms.
Wei Yuan said: "This is a new type of oath I researched. Just drop a drop of blood and sign a true name. The content of the oath is on this page, and it has been filled in by itself."
The Great Desolate Day took the thick oath text and actually sat down to read it page by page carefully. From this, Wei Yuan saw that the rough appearance of this old Shaman was all pretended.
Even though he read extremely fast, he watched for a full quarter of an hour before finishing it. Tianyu only read three pages and felt dizzy, so he put the book aside.
Finally, the Great Desolate Day finished reading and said: "It's not bad, it's just a bit wordy, and there are no traps. You human, you are quite honest."
Wei Yuan smiled and said: "The days ahead are still long. I can cheat you once or twice, but can I keep cheating you? As long as it is discovered once, our relationship will be over."
"Makes sense!" The Great Desolate Day signed with blood and handed the oath back to Wei Yuan. Wei Yuan also signed with blood, and then said: "The faster this batch of brocade is sold, the better. It is mainly to block the Lei Ze tribe's sales channels. From now on, let them not be able to sell a single piece of brocade!"
Tianyu nodded, and then discussed some details with Wei Yuan. The next step was the long cargo handover and transfer.
Wei Yuan returned to Azure Void in advance, summoned several close and reliable caravan masters, and ordered: "I will give you 100,000 pieces of machine brocade, and you will sell them in your own shops in the eight counties. The price is always one tael of immortal silver lower than the current market price, and each merchant is limited to selling 100 pieces per day. Make the momentum as big as possible, so that everyone knows that we have cheaper and better brocade here."
A master said: "Powerful! In this way, we can use a very small amount to block their shipment channels. It's just that we need a large amount of brocade to maintain this price in the future. Do we have so much?"
"You don't need to worry about this, just find a way to block the shipment of the Ningzhou brocade shop in the recent two or three months."
Three months later, the Ningzhou brocade shop couldn't sell a single piece of brocade.
