Chapter 285 The Imperial Court's Big Purchase!

Chapter 285

After arranging things in the southwest, Wang Chong went to see his uncle Wang Gen alone.

"Chong'er, Li Qingyou, the chief of military affairs of the Imperial Army in the palace, has come to see me. He wants to buy your Uzi steel sword!"

The first time he saw Wang Chong, Wang Gen immediately cut to the chase.

"What?"

Wang Chong had just stepped into the hall, and when he heard these words, his face was filled with astonishment, and he was stunned. Immediately, an indescribable ecstasy swept over like a raging wave, completely submerging Wang Chong.

Li Qing has it!

Hearing this name, Wang Chong knew that the thing he was most looking forward to had happened.

Court procurement!

Even without relying on the memory of his previous life, Wang Chongtian still deeply knows what this name means. In Datang, Li Qing's name is only associated with one thing, that is procurement.

Regardless of whether it is Zhang, Lu, Huang, Cheng, the great swordsmith families in the capital, or the sword towers and sword shops in the capital, once it comes to the procurement in the imperial army, the military chief named Li Qingyou is personally responsible for it.

This point, Wang Chong has heard the head of the Zhang family say it several times.

However, for Wang Chong, this name also has a special meaning that only he himself knows.

It was Li Qingyou, the chief of military affairs of the palace, who dominated the entire Middle-earth world in his previous life, and the largest purchase of Wootz steel in history.

Although that procurement case failed due to various reasons, it will always be engraved in history.

Calculated in terms of time, such things should take one or two years to happen under normal circumstances. Wang Chong is not at all surprised that this matter will happen earlier.

The only thing he didn't expect was that this matter would come so soon.

In two days, he sent a message to the Zhang family in the capital, making an exception to let them expand from a few Uzi steel swords a month to thirty, with the purpose of expanding their influence in the Forbidden Army.

And the ultimate goal is to go to Li Qingyou, the military officer of the Imperial Army who is in charge of purchasing ordnance in the palace.

As long as the military officer who holds an important position in the imperial army sees his own Uzi steel weapon,

Wang Chong believed that he would definitely win his favor.

If it weren't for his special love for Wootz steel weapons, Li Qingyou wouldn't have spent so much energy and cost in persuading the imperial court to purchase Wootz steel.

However, Wang Chong did not expect that Li Qingyou's actions would be so fast. It was only two days ago that he had already started to act and found his uncle Wang Gen.

"Hahaha, I really didn't expect it, this is really a surprise!"

Wang Chong clenched his fists fiercely, feeling extremely excited.

Wootz steel is very valuable and can bring great profits. But this profit is also limited. "Things are rare and expensive." Although Wang Chong sold weapons worth two hundred thousand taels of gold to the commander of the imperial army, for ordinary people, this was something that they would never dare to look like in their entire lives.

But this kind of weapon can only sell one a month. And it won't necessarily appear in the future.

Wang Chong basically needs a year to earn two million taels of gold, and what Wang Chong lacks most now is time.

There is nothing faster than selling to the court to get money!

Not everyone can buy a weapon with 200,000 taels of gold like the Commander of the Forbidden Army, but the court is different, the potential of the court is almost unlimited.

In Wang Chong's plan, the best seller of Hyderabad ore is the imperial court!

However, this time must be grasped. It was too early, Wutz Steel was worthless, and the imperial court might not be able to buy it, nor could it afford to sell it at a price.

And now is the best time!

"Prince, please be polite."

Under the guidance of his uncle Wang Gen, Wang Chong met the famous military chief Li Qingyou in the "Qunyu Restaurant" in the west of the city.

"Master Li is polite."

Wang Chong laughed, and while talking, he sat down opposite Li Qingyou with a dignified and generous expression.

Li Qingyou, the chief of military affairs, was definitely an existence in the Tang Dynasty who never saw the end of the dragon.

His scope of activities is basically in the palace, and his actions are extremely low-key. Even if he goes to those swordsmith families to take them, he will come and go in a hurry, and often there is no time for a stick of incense.

Although Wang Chong had admired his name for a long time, this was the first time he met him in his life.

"Master Wang should have already told you, right?"

Li Qingyou's acting style is quite straightforward, as soon as he is seated, he immediately cuts to the chase, explaining why he came:

"The imperial court wants to purchase a thousand Uzi steel weapons from your son!"

"Hehe, since Mr. Li is so forthright, let me just say it, I can't do a thousand Utz steel weapons!"

Wang Chong spread his hands and said with a smile.

"Oh, why? Is it because the price is too low?"

A light flashed in Li Qingyou's eyes, no surprise:

"With all due respect, it is impossible for the imperial court to purchase the same as the young master's sale outside. Twenty thousand taels of gold is not cheap."

Indeed, based on the market price of Utz steel weapons that Wang Chong currently has, the price of a weapon of 20,000 taels is indeed very low. However, the court procurement market has always been like this.

"Hahaha, Lord Li misunderstood."

Wang Chong laughed:

"It's not that I don't want to, it's that I can't sell it at all."

"Oh why?"

"Because I only have a hundred ingots of Utz steel in total."

Wang Chong laughed.

From Aluojia and Arroyo, Wang Chong only got three hundred jun in total. Li Qing has a thousand ingots here, how can he have so many?

No matter how high Li Qing's price was, he couldn't afford it.

However, Wang Chong asked Li Qing to come here, not to talk about this.

"Hehe, with all due respect, the reason Mr. Li wants these Utz steel weapons is because he wants to form an army of Utz steel weapons? But, is a thousand weapons really enough?"

Wang Chong laughed.

The people of Tang Dynasty are really very smart. Zhao Fengchen, the commander of the forbidden army, mentioned to him more than once, what would happen if he could form an army with Utz steel weapons.

The same is true for Li Qing's purchases now.

These people realized the military value contained in the sharpness of Utz steel almost at the first sight.

And the big cannibals of the future will do just that.

Anyone who sees Utz steel weapons can almost immediately realize the huge military use contained in it.

"this……"

Li Qingyou was stunned for a moment. He just wanted to buy a batch of weapons to try in the Forbidden Army first, but he really didn't think about it.

"Hehe, Mr. Li, if you want to form an army with Utz steel weapons, a thousand people are definitely not enough. Moreover, the price of twenty thousand taels of gold is indeed a bit low. However, if you can advance me eight hundred For the cost of 10,000 taels of gold, maybe within five years, I can find a way to get a weapon equipped for an army of 10,000 people. Even, even if it is the price of Utz steel weapons, I can give you some discounts, reducing it to 10,000. Ten thousand eight thousand taels."

Wang Chong said.

On the side, Wang Chong's uncle frowned slightly. But Li Qingyou's eyes lit up. Wang Chong's mention of 10,000 Uzis steel weapons was second, but Wang Chong's mention of the price of 18,000 taels of gold attracted his attention.

"Is eight million taels of gold enough?"

Li Qing has a way.

An ordinary sentence, when it fell in Qunyu Restaurant, was loud and full of arrogance, and even Wang Chong couldn't help but look sideways at it.

"It's really rich!"

Wang Chong was filled with emotion.

This is the difference between the chief military officer of the palace and the general aristocratic family.

Eight million taels of gold is also a huge sum of money for the aristocratic families in the capital, which is unbearable.

But for the military chief of the Imperial Guard who often makes large purchases, it's really drizzle.

As the Chief of Military Affairs of the Forbidden Army, Li Qingyou relied on the entire Tang court behind him.

This is the difference brought about by different weight classes.

Wang Chong felt more and more that his plan and rules were correct.

Li Qingyou reached an agreement with Wang Chong almost as quickly as possible, and took the opportunity to ask Wang Chong to write down his promise on the document.

Empty words are unsubstantiated, and documents are trustworthy.

Li Qingyou is almost used to being the chief of military affairs.

"Chong'er, why did you agree to him, wouldn't we lose too much?"

Coming out of the Qunyu Restaurant, Wang Chong's uncle Wang Gen finally couldn't help saying. The current Wang family is prosperous and all are prosperous, and all are damaged.

Although it was Wang Chong who suffered the loss, Wang Gen would never think that this matter had nothing to do with him.

"Hehe, uncle, people are coming to your door. Do you think we can still refuse?"

Wang Chong laughed.

"this……"

Wang Gen was stunned. If it was Li Qingyou, he didn't have to care about it at all, he just refused. But Wang Gen knew in his heart that the one standing behind Li Qingyou was the Holy Emperor.

This is also the reason why Wang Gen didn't say a word the whole time in the restaurant.

"Hehe, uncle, don't worry. We won't suffer at all in this matter!"

Wang Chong comforted with a smile.

He knew what his uncle was struggling with. Li Qing had found his uncle Wang Gen instead of himself, or his uncle Li Lin in the Imperial Army, just because he wanted to lower his price.

Uncle is entangled for this.

But Wang Chong was different, he was very open about this matter.

"Five years! Who knows what will happen in five years?"

Wang Chong said words that only he could hear, and he was filled with emotion.

With 10,000 weapons in five years, even Li Qingyou may not realize what the deal he just concluded with himself means.

A lot can change in five years.

If the catastrophe didn't happen within five years, if he was still alive after five years, maybe he would complete the deal with Li Qingyou...

Shaking his head, Wang Chong quickly came back to his senses.

"Eight million taels of gold, the Lion City in Jiannan will cost at least three to five million taels of gold, and the rest can be used to carry out my next plan."

After bidding farewell to his uncle Wang Gen, Wang Chong felt his heart fluctuate as he looked at the sky.

The Lion City in Jiannan is a bottomless pit. Before him, Datang had never had the practice of privately building a city. In terms of one person's ability, this is still too strenuous.

But in Wang Chong's mind, the Lion City is by far the most important to him. No matter how much it costs, he will carry on.

This is also the reason why he must ask the military chief of the Imperial Guard to pay several million in advance. Various barriers, defenses, food reserves, and even weapon repairs...

There are too many things involved.

Five million taels of gold may not be enough!

However, such a sum of money should be able to almost achieve the desired effect. Next, it's time for another thing.

That matter is also urgent!
