Yang Dong smiled slightly and nodded imperceptibly.
"It is understandable that the Doulu clan needs to survive. As a bystander, I also want to do my part."
As he spoke, he waved the fifty-thousand-tael bet certificate in his hand in front of Douluo Kuiran's eyes.
"This is five hundred thousand taels of silver, is it enough?"
Hearing "five hundred thousand taels", Doulu Oiran's pupils couldn't help but shrink. But when she heard that this was just a certificate, a hint of disdain flashed in her eyes.
"May I ask, Master, did you place your bet outside? Is the person who opened the market a person named Er Mazi?"
"That guy is short and thin, his face is pockmarked, and... he looks very vulgar!"
Yang Dong nodded slightly and said, "Yes, it's him."
When Douluo Oiran heard this, a nervous look suddenly flashed across her beautiful cheeks.
"Sir, I would like to advise you to find this Ermazi as soon as possible. Maybe the other party will return part of it because of your family background..."
When Yang Dong heard this, he didn't panic at all.
Are you kidding me? I've already got my principal back, why are you so panicked?
"What do you mean, Miss Doulu? This voucher is clearly written in black and white, and it also has the signature of their Xu Mansion. Why can't I get it back?"
Hearing this, Douluo Oiran frowned slightly. She even doubted herself at this moment. Did she choose the wrong target? This mysterious young master feels like he doesn't have enough brains.
But the next second, she came back to her senses.
Because since the other party can accurately tell the Doulu clan behind him, he cannot be a fool.
In this case, why is he so confident that he can get the money back? Even the Sun family in the capital cannot do this in Youzhou, unless... the other party's background is deeper than that of the Sun family!
But...how is this possible?
If he had a deeper background than the Sun family, why would he come to a cold and war-torn place like Youzhou? Shouldn't they go south?
Doulu Oiran was a little unsure of Yang Dong's identity, so he had to persuade him:
"Sir, I would like to advise you that the Xu family is deeply rooted in Youzhou and may be far more difficult to deal with than you imagine."
"Although I know that you have an extraordinary status, as the saying goes, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. If you want to get back the money on this certificate, it may not be easy."
When Yang Dong heard this, he smiled slightly and said:
"To tell you the truth, girl, I don't take the Xu family seriously. If girl doesn't believe it, are you willing to take a gamble?"
"What do you want to bet on?"
Douluo Oiran's eyes flickered, and a playful look flashed in his eyes.
"It's very simple. If I can get back the money on the certificate, the Doulu clan will establish cooperation with me. I may... need your power."
"Five hundred thousand taels of silver?"
Douluo Oiran's eyes turned slightly, and a look of contemplation appeared on his cheeks.
But within a moment, her eyes regained their clarity.
"If you are really sincere, the Doulu clan will naturally be willing to do your best for you."
"Okay, with your words, I feel relieved."
Yang Dong nodded slightly, looked deeply at Doulu Huakui, and suddenly chuckled:
"To show my sincerity in cooperation, I give the girl a piece of information for free - be careful of the people around you."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the audience.
Just yesterday, Yang Dong had contacted Captain Ma Bufan.
When leaving Beijing a few days ago, Yang Dong and Ma Xiaowei left the capital one after another, first and then secretly.
The people of Youzhou in the north are fierce and fierce, and they have been rich in elite soldiers and generals since ancient times. Captain Ma was blessed by Yang Dong's ability. He was marching and recruiting brave men along the way.
As a result, in just over a month, the number of soldiers and horses of the Yongwu Army in Youzhou has exceeded 3,000.
And this is also the current limit of the number of people that the brave army can afford.
In fact, Lieutenant Ma had approached Yang Dong more than once, hoping to lower the treatment standards of some brave soldiers.
Because now the wages of the Yongwu Army are more than twice that of the Zhou Army, and they are never in arrears!
Not only that, the food standards of the Yongwu Army were much higher than those of ordinary armies of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Not only do they have an adequate supply of food and grass, they can even drink broth every ten days.
Yang Dong even imitated the military construction of later generations and created a military merit system. Anyone who achieved military merit would receive money and even the opportunity to be promoted.
When he said a few simple words to Captain Ma, he was shocked. Captain Ma immediately followed the ideas provided by Yang Dong and localized the various systems of the Yongwu Army.
And the benefits of this are obvious. It is no exaggeration to say that today's brave army is united by one thousand people. It can be called an elite force.
Of course, building a brave army in this way is not without its shortcomings. Especially in terms of the number of soldiers, with the investment of brave troops, the number can be expanded by two to three times.
But Yang Dong always believed in one sentence, that is, it is not the number of soldiers, but the quality.
Therefore, the current maximum carrying capacity of the Yongwu Army is only 5,000 people. Recruiting three thousand people in Youzhou is already the limit.
However, with these three thousand elite soldiers, Yang Dong can show off his talents in Youzhou. And this is where his greatest confidence lies.
Unfortunately, even with these three thousand elite troops, it would be difficult to have a strategic impact on the entire battle between Dazhou and Houjin.
In addition, Yang Dong also established a professional scout battalion in the Yongwu Army.
He used Xichang's intelligence channels and integrated the scout battalion with them, thereby re-establishing Youzhou's intelligence network.
Although the intelligence network is still in the growth stage, if Yang Dong is determined to check something, he can still get some information.
For example, the Doulu Oiran standing in front of him at this moment was the first time he used the power of the Yongwu Army Scout Battalion.
As a result, the performance of the scout camp made Yang Dong extremely satisfied, and even exceeded his expectations!
For example, for the Doulu clan, he has basically mastered most of the situation.
The Doulu clan was originally a royal tribe of the grassland barbarians. But later, due to changes within the Hu people, the Doulu clan was expelled.
Later, the Doulu clan came to Donghu, but they were still marginalized. Now they can only live on the border between Dazhou and the grassland, which is an extremely barren land.
Therefore, some members of the Doulu clan often couldn't survive and sold their children to Dazhou.
And this Doulu Oiran actually has another identity, that is, the princess of the Doulu clan.
After her father passed away, she single-handedly reunited the Doulu clan that was about to disperse.
For the sake of the continuation of the Doulu clan, she even took the initiative to come to Dazhou and entered Yanfang Tower.
Some people died, but not completely...
