[Chapter 174 Zhennan Pass]
? Mulanyue closed the alliance channel, found Mu Guiying, and told Mu Guiying exactly what Ouyang Shuo proposed just now, hoping to hear Mu Guiying’s opinion.
After Mu Guiying finished listening, she remained silent.
Obviously, this question is also a dilemma for Mu Guiying.
According to her original intention, she naturally hoped that Mulan Town could operate independently.
However, the reality is that due to lack of funds, the development of Mulan Town is slow, and her energy is too involved to concentrate on military affairs.
After a long time, Mu Guiying looked at Mulanyue and asked leisurely: “Xiaoyue, let me ask you, how much trust do you have in your brother Wuyi? Besides being an ally, do you have other feelings in it? Mulanyue
was taken aback, not understanding why Mu Guiying asked such a question.
Fortunately, she has always trusted Mu Guiying. Even though she felt strange, she still answered seriously: “Brother Wuyi is not only an ally, he is also a brother. Although he is not a real brother, Xiaoyue can feel that brother Wuyi treats me well. The concern is sincere.”
Mu Guiying nodded, noncommittal, “Then let me ask you again, how do you think about the future of Mulan Town? We are in the same Lianzhou Basin as Shanhai County. One day I will face it.”
“To tell you the truth, I have thought about this problem too. Sister, you already know that my parents will be separated from me for a long time. The reason why I want to maintain the operation of Mulan Town is to wait until The day my parents come back, let them be proud of me. As for the future, integrating into the Shanhai County system is the best choice. However, before integrating, I want to use my own ability to run Mulan Town well.” Mulan Yue said Reply.
Mu Guiying nodded and said: “Then I understand. In this case, I agree to allow Shanhai County to open a branch of the Four Seas Bank in Mulan Town. In this way, I can also devote more energy to suppressing bandits. The territory has cultivated an elite army to guard Zhennanguan.”
Mulanyue was overjoyed, “Okay, then I will tell Brother Wuyi.”
After receiving Mulanyue’s affirmative reply, Ouyang Shuo got up and went to Yingyou’s next door. office.
“Brother!” Yingyou hurriedly got up and asked Ouyang Shuo to take a seat.
After Ouyang Shuo sat down, he talked about Mulan Town, and then said, “Yingyou, what I mean is to transfer Yang Yun back from Beihai Town and send her to Mulan Town. What’s your opinion?”
Cui Yingyou After pondering for a while, he said with a smile: “I think it is feasible. Yang Yun participated in the establishment of the Four Seas Bank throughout the whole process, and has a clear understanding of the operation of the bank. In addition, during this period of time, she presided over the Beihai Town branch of the bank, and accumulated a lot of grassroots With
experience, I should be able to do the job.”
“Okay. Then, in the name of the Finance Department, send a letter to Yang Yun, asking her to rush back to the base camp to report on her work immediately after handing over the work in Beihai Town. As for the successor in Beihai Town, the Finance Department Just draw it up.
”
“Understood.” Yingyou nodded, and then asked: “Brother, how much reserve do you plan to allocate to the branch in Mulan Town?”
Ouyang Shuo had already prepared a draft for this question, “Over there in Mulan Town , if the reserve fund is too small, it will definitely not work. The first fund is set at 2,000 gold coins, which is all the liquidity we can use now. This fund should be able to last for a while, and we will add more when the economy is affluent in the future Invest.”
“I agree.” Yingyou is also from a business family, so she naturally knows that once the bank has a firm foothold, it will be a sharp weapon for attracting money, and the initial investment will reap rich returns in the future, so it is natural to support it.
…
At two o’clock in the afternoon, Wang Yuanfeng, the commander of the Shenji camp, brought three crossbows with three bows and eight bullbeds, and teleported them to Luofeng Town.
After sending Wang Yuanfeng away, Ouyang Shuo turned and returned to the Lord’s Mansion.
At four o’clock in the afternoon, Yang Yun returned to Shanhai County and rushed to the lord’s office to report on her duties immediately.
After Yang Yun’s routine work report was over, Ouyang Shuo reminded him: “Mulan Yue, the lord of Mulan Town, is my friend. The opening of a branch of Universal Bank in Mulan Town this time is a normal business activity. When you arrive in Mulan Town, you must remember You must maintain absolute neutrality, and you must not intervene in the economic affairs of Mulan Town, let alone in the territorial affairs of Mulan Town. Do you understand what I mean?”
The Four Seas Bank is a sharp knife, if the person who holds this sharp knife cannot keep a clear head and has a little evil thought, he may cause endless disasters and make it difficult for Mulanyue to do so.
Ouyang Shuo naturally trusted Yang Yun, but because the matter was so important, he still worried about it.
Yang Yun nodded solemnly, and said in a deep voice: “Don’t worry, my lord, I understand what to do.”
“That’s good.” Ouyang Shuo waved his hand and said, “Okay, all that needs to be said has been said. There is no time Morning, go to Director Cui and see if Director Cui has anything else to tell you. Tomorrow morning, I will personally send you to Mulan Town to take up your post.”
“Yes!” Yang Yun responded, got up and said goodbye.
The next morning, Ouyang Shuo took Yang Yun to Mulan Town through the teleportation array.
Yang Yun didn’t really take up the post alone. Besides her, the Finance Department also selected two capable salesmen to serve as Yang Yun’s assistants.
As for the preparatory work of Mulan Town Sub-branch of Sihai Bank, Mulan Town is responsible for the preparatory work, including the selection of grassroots clerks.
Mulan Town Teleportation Formation, Mulan Yue and Mu Guiying had already been waiting here.
After the meeting between the two parties, Ouyang Shuo introduced each other in turn.
If the Four Seas Bank wants to gain a firm foothold in Mulan Town, it must have Mulanyue’s support. There are many opportunities for the two parties to deal with each other, so Ouyang Shuo naturally wants to match them up.
Ouyang Shuo left Yang Yun and her two assistants behind, and discussed with Mulanyue the preparations for the Four Seas Bank branch. Accompanied by Mu Guiying, he walked out of Mulan Town and headed for Zhennan Pass.
Zhennanguan is located 20 kilometers south of Mulan Town, firmly guarding the only passage from the Lianzhou Basin to the hinterland of Guangxi, and is now occupied by a group of bandits.
Looking from a distance, in the middle of the canyon, which is nearly 50 meters wide, a majestic pass stands towering.
The entire checkpoint, after years of baptism, left mottled traces.
Zhennanguan is divided into the main gate and the east and west side gates.
The main level is 20 meters high and 30 meters wide, all made of huge stone masonry.
Below the checkpoint is the only door opening, ten meters high and eight meters wide.
There are three city gates arranged in the gate opening, all of which are closed.
The main level extends to the east and west sides, sticking to the cliffs on both sides without any gap.
The extensions on both sides are slightly lower, only fifteen meters high.
There is a side door on each side, six meters high and four meters wide, for people and goods to enter and exit.
“General Mu, do you know anything about the bandits occupying the checkpoint?” Ouyang Shuo asked Mu Guiying on the way back from Zhennan Pass.
These bandits are a hidden danger after all. Ouyang Shuo planned to cooperate with Mulan Town to eradicate them, and Mulan Town will be responsible for guarding them.
Mu Guiying shook his head and said, “Just now you also saw that our meticulous work has no way to get close to Zhennan Pass. Once we get in, we will be exposed to the guards at the pass.”
Ouyang Shuo nodded and asked “Then, what do they rely on for their livelihood? Why didn’t they go out to plunder. Especially Mulan Town, right under their noses, hasn’t they been harassed?”
Mu Guiying frowned, and said, “This is also a It’s a place that makes me feel strange. According to my guess, first, when they occupied Zhennan Pass, they probably stockpiled a large amount of supplies in the pass, enough for them to enjoy for a long time. Second, there are still people coming and going at the pass at ordinary times. Bandits use this to collect some transit fees, but they can still make a living. Therefore, they hide in the customs and rarely go out to plunder. After all, bandits are also human, and they are not willing to take risks when they have no worries about their livelihoods. If you go out to plunder, you will bleed to death.”
Ouyang Shuo nodded, agreed with Mu Guiying’s speculation, and said with a smile: “From this point of view, these bandits are definitely not a mob. Their leader is not simple. Not only is he clear-headed and far-sighted, but he should have a high prestige among bandits.”
“How do you say?” Mu Guiying was a little curious.
“Think about it, as you said, most bandits are happy to be content with the status quo. That’s because many of them are desperate and forced by reality, so they fall into bandits. Their purpose is to mess with the status quo. They don’t want to starve to death. Of course, this group of people are unwilling to take risks. However, bandits are bandits, and among them, there are also a group of villains, who are cruel by nature, or are thieves, or are abandoned by sects. Annihilation, taking pleasure in plundering and killing people. Such a group of villains would not be willing to stay in the pass and enjoy a peaceful life. The leader of the bandits can subdue this group of villains, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com Restrain them from leaving the customs, tell me, does this leader have a high prestige?” Ouyang Shuo explained.
Mu Guiying nodded in agreement.
“So, for the sake of long-term planning, it is the best policy to find a way to eradicate these bandits. Otherwise, if one day, the leader can’t suppress these villains under his command, it would be a waste of time. For Mulan Town , is a ticking time bomb, which may be detonated at any time.” Ouyang Shuo reminded.
“I understand. Next, Mulan Town will intensify its investigation on the Zhennanguan Shanzhai, and strive to find out their details in the shortest possible time.” Mu Guiying’s face was serious.
“If you need support from Shanhai County, just ask.” Ouyang Shuo promised.
“Definitely.”
When the two returned to Mulan Town, Mulanyue was still discussing related matters with Yang Yun.
Ouyang Shuo did not stay too long in Mulan Town, and temporarily handed over the 2000 gold coins he brought to Mulan Yue for safekeeping.
After the bank is built, Mulanyue uses the player’s storage bag function to melt the gold coins and deposit them in the bank’s treasury.
Immediately, Ouyang Shuo returned to Shanhai County through the teleportation array.
