He Gongdao: "How can we go to the king to ask for money? You said you were going to go. Just take out your things once, but they have to eat every day."
Xiang Shaolong said: "The king's general title is also given to your granddaughter. What can I get? Besides, I can't say it anymore? It's just not the time yet."
Duke Heng just refused to comply. Otherwise, he would ask Xiang Shaolong to quickly go to the king to ask for money, or else he would provide more money.
Xiang Shaolong had no choice but to agree to let the ranch provide them with free meat for these three months, and only then did Mr. He give up.
Xiang Shaolong is really looking forward to the performance of this group of female soldiers. After such arduous training, none of them have been eliminated. All the unqualified front-line combat troops have become medical soldiers. His factory wants to hire people, but it seems that he will have to go out and recruit others himself.
If you want to shock people's attention, nothing is more suitable than "split type". Three months of surprise training, and then there will be a "winter fairy tale".
King Qin heard that Xiang Shaolong had gone to test the female soldiers, and he was also very curious and asked Xiang Shaolong about the situation.
Xiang Shaolong said: "The training is very good. I will train for another three months. Then I will ask the king to come and review it in person."
King Qin said: "Okay, I also want to see the beauty of female soldiers. Now the families of these girls hate you, and they paid a lot of money this time."
Xiang Shaolong thought to himself: "If you feel distressed, you can give them money now. It's best to settle the account for your own weapons and equipment."
Seeing that King Qin had no intention of paying any money, he had no choice but to say: "Let them pay some blood, I will pay too! The country now has more places to spend money, and it has to fight again. We need to build again, and as a noble, we should make more contributions to the country.”
All the money has been spent, let’s sell it for a better price. If you ask for money at this time and add trouble to the King of Qin, isn't the money wasted in vain?
King Qin was very happy and felt that Xiang Shaolong was really the most considerate, and his words and actions were the most in line with his wishes.
King Qin originally didn't attach much importance to money, and he himself had no shortage of it, but Xiang Shaolong always advocated the benefits of business to him, saying that money was very important. Now that the country is developing faster and faster, and money is used everywhere, he finally discovered: Money is really a good thing, so he should spend as little as possible.
Three months passed in a blink of an eye. Girls like Ying Ying and Dan'er don't care at all about the huge expenses at home, and only think about becoming generals all day long.
As the military parade approached, they found Xiang Shaolong for final guidance.
Xiang Shaolong was also looking forward to this military parade. He had spent a lot of time on it. When he went to the school grounds for the final rehearsal for the last time, he was also shocked.
The bright red military uniforms stood neatly in a square formation. Xiang Shaolong turned around and asked, "Have you ever seen a military uniform that is red from head to toe?"
Ying Ying said: "Didn't you say the Red Detachment of Women? It's very beautiful!"
Xiang Shaolong was speechless: "Is this what I mean by 'red'?"
But visually, it's really good. After designing the entire military parade steps in detail, he quietly waited for the military parade to begin.
The warm winter sun is not so dazzling, and it shines on the girls' faces. It is really a good weather suitable for a military parade.
Everyone with high status in Xianyang City came, and the lineup was no less than the showdown between Xiang Shaolong and Wang Jian.
The guests who came to watch the ceremony entered the school grounds first and came to their own seats. After standing still, King Qin appeared last.
The King of Qin usually rides on his own chariot, takes the queen, and follows the guards. But this time, Xiang Shaolong designed a unique appearance method for him, which was regarded as a "military parade."
The King of Qin led the Prince, both in military uniforms and swords, riding tall horses, and walked slowly from the gate of the school grounds to the viewing platform.
Opposite the viewing platform, there were twenty square formations wearing red military uniforms neatly arranged. Wherever the King of Qin passed, the soldiers paid attention and saluted solemnly and solemnly.
Xiang Shaolong deliberately designed a few sentences of "Hello, comrades!" and "Serve the people", but finally gave up. He always felt that it was nondescript and seemed to be a spoof of the People's Liberation Army.
The King of Qin stood in the center of the viewing platform, with hundreds of civil and military officials lined up on the left and right.
Twenty fiery red war horses in the distance came to the auditorium at lightning speed. Twenty female generals leaped on their horses and crossed their spears. They wore golden crowns and armor, wore red robes, and held spears. They were going to carry out the red color to the end.
Twenty young and beautiful female generals got off their horses and shouted in unison: "Meet the King!" They were neat, crisp and melodious, and everyone was refreshed.
A young and beautiful woman is good-looking, and coupled with her neat clothes and powerful aura, she is simply a "uniform temptation".
Ying Ying said loudly: "Your Majesty, the Red Detachment of Women has assembled, please review it!"
Originally, Xiang Shaolong designed only Ying Ying as the commander of the parade, and she was the only one present to report. But the other girls firmly disagreed. They had spent their own money and exerted their efforts. How could it be possible if they didn’t show themselves when they showed up? In the end, it was decided that everyone would show up together, and it was Ying Ying who made the report.
The female generals turned around and faced the school field. Ying Ying shouted: "Pacesetters - get in position!"
One hundred pacesetters, holding steel guns, ran to their positions. Suddenly, one hundred steel guns hit the ground at the same time, making a dull loud noise.
Ying Ying said loudly: "The procession, let's begin!" Then the female generals also went to the viewing platform and stood around King Qin, because they still had another task - to be announcers.
"Turn left, move in unison—go!"
Reaching the second pacesetter, "Goose-step!"
Ying Ying was the first to speak, using her clear voice to introduce the formation in front: "The ones coming in front are the formation of Ying Ying, they..." Then she introduced the history of her family and her contributions to the Qin State. How many generals, how many scholar-officials, how many people have died, blah blah blah.
"Look to the right—look!"
The soldiers shouted "One, two!" They shook their heads in unison, raised their hands in salute, turned their heads 45 degrees, and stared at the viewing platform.
Uniform steps, as long as the body is tall, raising hands as high as the height, kicking the legs as high as the height.
Everyone was shocked and felt the beauty brought by neatness for the first time.
King Qin couldn't help but sigh: The singing and dancing in the palace are really nothing to watch, they are weak and not refreshing at all.
When each team comes to the viewing platform, a female general will stand up and introduce the history of the family. This operation made their parents who had suffered heavy losses recently feel that their money was well spent, and also made those who did not participate regret.
Xiang Shaolong has restored everything he can think of and can do in this era, and he can be considered worthy of them. During the whole process, he just stood quietly behind King Qin without making a sound.
This military parade was an unprecedented success. After it ended, everyone felt that they still had more to say.
The King of Qin made all the female generals generals on the spot and inscribed them "Red Detachment of Women" with his royal pen. This officially entered the order of battle of the Qin army.
King Qin quietly asked Xiang Shaolong: "Can you organize another military parade with more powerful male soldiers?"
When Xiang Shaolong heard this, he became addicted to reading and asked, "Who will pay for it?"
King Qin was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you need a lot of money?"
Xiang Shaolong nodded and said: "This military parade is because these girls are willing to become generals regardless of the cost, and the families behind them have invested a lot. If there is a military parade of all military officers, it will be a waste of money and people. You can put these in As basic training for soldiers, we will discuss it later if there are any special circumstances."
King Qin nodded. Now the country spends too much money, so it is better not to waste it as much as possible.
From then on, groups of female soldiers in red military uniforms can always be seen in Xianyang City, led by a female general, strutting through the city, taking care of everything, euphemistically saying they are maintaining law and order.
When Xiang Shaolong met them, they were all confused: Isn't this the scope of the patrol police's work? It’s not the same system as yours. Who has such a big idea? This is all across majors, and it’s a job grab!
Xiang Shaolong didn't bother to pay attention to them, and just told them not to miss their training. After all, the king recognized them and paid them wages, but they couldn't neglect their duties and forget their main tasks.
The public security in Xianyang City has indeed improved. These female generals are showing off their official power because they are not recognized by their relatives. No one dares to act arrogantly in front of them, which makes Duqi Yamen and Duwei Yamen a lot easier.
Xiang Shaolong has been studying Qi State recently. The state of Qi was disliked by other countries for being "cautious about serving Qin", and rarely participated in the joint attack on Qin. Without Tiandan, Qi has nothing to worry about, but after all, it is still a rich and powerful country. It has always been Qin's strategy to make friends with far away and attack close to home. Making good friends with Qi will be beneficial to the process of unification.
Xiang Shaolong has always used paper business to seduce powerful people from all over the world. This time Xiang Shaolong plans to use his refined salt technology to cooperate with Hou Sheng.
Relying on the profits of fishing and salt, Qi became richest in the world and became a powerful country second only to Qin. Due to the geographical location of Qin State, the profit of refined salt in recent years has not been as good as Xiang Shaolong expected. Since it does not produce salt, the cost of purchasing coarse salt is also very high.
Xiang Shaolong also had the idea of a saltwater lake, but in this era, China's main saltwater lakes were all located in ethnic minority areas such as Xirong, making them more difficult to obtain, so the refined salt business was delayed.
Xiang Shaolong has always been interested in the fact that Qi State is located on the seaside and can cook salt by the sea, so he has long had the idea of cooperating with him. The last time he met Hou Sheng in Zhao State, he showed his friendly intentions. Now Xiang Shaolong is preparing to send an envoy to Qi State to lure Hou Sheng with benefits and win Hou Sheng.
Xiang Shaolong reported to the King of Qin his intention to send an envoy to Qi.
The King of Qin was very surprised. Why should such a good person go to Qi?
Xiang Shaolong said: "Now that King Wei's health is deteriorating, Lord Xinling will not be here for long. To stabilize Qi, it's time to make some plans for Wei."
The King of Qin has always been most satisfied with Xiang Shaolong's attitude of being dedicated to the country. He has a keen grasp of the pulse of the six kingdoms and has a well-thought-out plan. He can react immediately to any disturbance, make far-sighted plans and plan the world.
King Qin said happily: "Okay, Shaolong can still make his own decision on the matter of sending an envoy to Qi."
Xiang Shaolong kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
