In fact, the poorer you are, the more business opportunities there are because there are too many gaps. In places that are truly wealthy, it is difficult to do business because the competition is more intense.
Sangkun said: "That's very good. Is there anything you need my help with?"
Ouyang Feng said: "It is impossible for me to trade with every herdsman for large quantities of goods. It is best for me to trade with you, the leader. As for the price at which you sell the goods later, I don't care."
Sangkun was overjoyed. No matter how ignorant and barbaric he was, he still knew the principle of plucking the feathers of wild geese. This was just to stuff money into his hands.
Ouyang Feng learned about the situation of the grassland in detail with Sang Kun and knew that the grassland area was very vast. The Kele tribe alone was no smaller than the entire Xixia. Temujin's Qiyan tribe is still further north, and there is Jamukha's Zataran tribe further north.
Temujin and Jamukha were both adopted sons of Wang Han, which is equivalent to both Anda and Sangkun, and they were famous on the grassland.
There is also a very powerful tribe to the west, the Naiman tribe.
The Naiman tribe was located in the north of Western Liao. They once submitted to Western Liao and later accepted the canonization of Jin.
Although the Kelie tribe is very large and borders most of the northern border of Xixia, Ouyang Feng's Baituo Mountain is in the northwest of Xixia and borders Xiliao, but is closer to the Naiman tribe.
Ouyang Feng had no interest in going north to see Temujin. He didn't come to the grassland to cuddle up. Moreover, Temujin was not someone who could give up the conquest with just a few words from others. There was not even a soft-hearted person in Mongolia. Those who help them expand are friends, and those who hinder their expansion are enemies.
Ouyang Feng just wanted to cultivate a few opponents for Temujin, and the Kele tribe was the best choice. Although they are still very close now, as Temujin becomes increasingly powerful, a falling out is inevitable.
Now Wang Han is more powerful, but Ouyang Feng believes that even with his participation, they cannot leave Temujin behind. I just hope that as Temujin becomes stronger, Wang Han's advantage will not be lost too quickly.
No one can stop Temujin's rise, and Ouyang Feng thinks he does not have that ability. Moreover, Temujin’s golden family, whose descendants are all heroes, is really difficult to suppress.
What Ouyang Feng has to do is to enhance Wang Han's strength and make it more difficult for Temujin to unify the grasslands.
After all, what I experienced was a martial arts time travel, not a historical time travel. I still wanted to focus on the martial arts world, and I had no interest in personally participating in the struggle for world supremacy.
Ouyang Feng continued: "I live at the foot of the Qilian Mountains in the west. If the leader is interested, you can send someone to my place to have a look first. My place is well connected in all directions, with everything from the southeast to the northwest. It is not less prosperous than Jiangnan. It can be called the Western Region. A pearl.”
Sangkun's heart was moved. This man looked grand and spoke wonderfully, but he didn't know his true story at all. What he heard was false, and what he saw was true.
There are constant battles on the grassland, and the area is vast and sparsely populated. This is also one of the reasons why this place is very poor. No one wants to come here to trade, and it is not safe. Now that someone has arrived, there is no reason to give up.
Suddenly, Sang Kun actually sent a team of twenty people to take a look at Ouyang Feng's lair.
Ouyang Feng smiled and nodded.
Ouyang Feng went all the way west, instead of turning south and entering Xixia territory, he went straight to the Naiman tribe.
Sangkun's people are led by a man named Kuo Kuo, who is Sangkun's crony and has a flexible mind. Seeing that Ouyang Feng was about to enter the Naiman tribe, he felt suspicious.
The Naiman tribe and the Kele tribe have always been at odds with each other, and they often plundered each other. I don’t know if Kuo Kuo is afraid of danger or if Ouyang Feng is colluding with the Naiman people. He strongly advises Ouyang Feng to go south into Xixia and avoid entering the Naiman tribe. He says that the Naiman people are barbaric, greedy and unscrupulous, and have no faith. If they enter, there will be danger. Danger. @ESSENTIAL\/SHUKEG·No mistake first release~~
How could Ouyang Feng be frightened and determined to cross the Naiman tribe and return to Baituo Mountain?
Ouyang Feng originally wanted to lure out the nobles of the Naiman tribe in the same way as he lured out Sangkun. Unfortunately, things went against expectations. The border line between Naiman and Xixia is too short, and it is on the edge of Naiman. There are no powerful people here at all, they are just ordinary herdsmen, and Kuo Kuo is constantly urging them. , they quickly returned to Xixia without encountering any trouble.
But it doesn’t matter, the future is long, the northern land is vast, and there are plenty of opportunities.
Once entering the territory of Xixia, it is very different from the grassland. Although Xixia is also very poor, it is far better than the desert. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 220: Meeting Sangkun
At least there's a decent town already. Especially here, it is close to Baituo Mountain in Ouyang Feng, and the economy is relatively good due to the influence of Shuangqi Town.
After climbing the White Camel Mountain, Sangkun's team was even more shocked by the magnificent castles. Relying on the steep terrain of Baituo Mountain, Ouyang Feng's palace is both majestic and well-proportioned, with luxury and solemnity.
Kuokuo was sent here by Sangkun not only because of his trust, but also because he had seen the world and was not an ordinary country bumpkin.
But looking at Ouyang Feng's home, it is no worse than the palaces of the Jin and Song Dynasties. It is even worse, let alone remote Mongolia. Comparing Wang Han's tent with Ouyang Feng's, Wang Han can only be regarded as a country bumpkin, while Ouyang Feng is the real rich man.
The mountain is dangerous, easy to defend but difficult to attack. The guards are all covered in cold clothes, with scimitars hanging from their waists, holding repeating crossbows, and they are very disciplined.
Every time Kuokuo passed a checkpoint, his heart suddenly trembled, thinking to himself: "Can the elite Mongolian soldiers break through the defenses on this mountain?"
Ouyang Feng asked Kuokuo and his group to spend one night repairing at Baituo Villa, and then sent someone to take them to Shuangqi Town the next day.
Xiao Zhenping received Ouyang Feng's instructions and took them to see what it means to be bright and green, and what it means to be drunk and drunk. Eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, nothing bad. After playing for ten days, they realized the charm of Shuangqi Town in attracting visitors from all directions.
All kinds of rare treasures can be seen here. The granary is filled with grain, and the arsenal is filled with armor, bows and arrows.
I also saw overtime work in the factory, with weapons, daily necessities, and luxury goods being shipped out constantly.
Xiao Zhenping said: "It doesn't matter if you want something that we don't have here. We can purchase it for you and buy it for you, no matter what you want."
Kuokuo was deeply shocked. Everything here was something he had never heard of before. The wealth here was something he had never dared to imagine. It was a completely different world.
Ouyang Feng is really a big benefactor. He is far richer than Wang Han.
Kuokuo reluctantly left this paradise and went back to report to Sangkun.
Ouyang Feng is quite a homebody. He rarely leaves home for so long. He is a family-oriented person. Correct update @And the family members are not used to not seeing Ouyang Feng for so long. Both the elder and the younger miss him very much.
Ouyang Ke will inherit the White Camel Villa in the future, and Ouyang Feng will never let him become a playboy.
There is no explanation of Ouyang Ke's martial arts talent in the original work, but it is obvious that he is far inferior to Ouyang Feng. It may be that he really has poor talent, or it may be that Ouyang Feng took too much care of him and left him with a lack of training.
Ouyang Feng is extremely strict with Ouyang Ke. He can be stupid or stupid, but he must be self-disciplined.
In his previous life, he was not so attentive to his son Xie Wuji. Firstly, it was his first time becoming a father and he had little experience. Secondly, his wife Lu Zhiqing was an excellent mother, and she played a vital role in Xie Wuji's training.
But Ouyang Ke is different. Although the original work doesn't say it clearly, it can be seen that neither Ouyang Feng nor Ouyang Ke's mother is qualified. Of course, Ouyang Feng is not a good person in the original work.
Now Ouyang Feng feels that he is not a good person, and his personal ethics are lacking.
People are most afraid of temptation, whether it is power, profit, or sex. Those who can withstand temptation are saints. Human nature is most afraid of tests.
What is even more fearful is that one does not distinguish between right and wrong, regards obeying the law as useless, regards breaking the law and violating discipline as ability, and is complacent about getting away with it, and even shows off.
The basic values are distorted, and the result is profit-seeking, laughing at the poor but not at prostitution. Everyone is looking for shortcuts, and no one is willing to keep their feet on the ground.
As for his daughter Ouyang Yao, Ouyang Feng still followed the attitude of a girl who should be pampered and doted on her. She wanted to practice martial arts or study literature, whatever she wanted. The emphasis was on guidance, but he never forced her.
But as a mother, Harleen still attaches great importance to Ouyang Yao's education. She had a low status to begin with. Although Ouyang Feng had never looked down on their mother and daughter, a concubine was a concubine. If her daughter could no longer please Ouyang Feng, she would have nothing. She was still pointing at her daughter to serve her food. How could she let Ouyang Feng treat her so wantonly?
Reyi has not had children in these years, but with Ouyang Feng's love, she is not anxious.
Li Jingwen has always been the hostess of White Camel Villa. Although she and Ouyang Feng are considered uncle and sister-in-law, everyone close to them knows that they are having an affair, so they are still in love. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 220: Meeting Sangkun
She is in charge of everything in White Camel Villa.
Not long after Kuokuo left, he wrote back to Ouyang Feng, wanting to buy his bow and arrows.
Li Jingwen was very puzzled by Ouyang Feng's trip to Mongolia, especially when he brought back a group of envoys to visit Shuangqi Town.
In Li Jingwen's eyes, the Saibei Desert was a barbaric land with nothing but poverty. Xia was already backward enough, and that place could no longer be described as backward. It was simply a restricted area for civilization. Sangkun only purchased weapons and could tell that the place was barbaric.
Ouyang Feng said: "First, the poverty of the entire grassland does not mean that they have no purchasing power. The tribal leaders there are still very wealthy. Second, they have frequent wars and need supplies for fighting. They need very little. All soldiers prepare their own weapons for the battlefield, otherwise they will need more. This is why I let them visit our weapons reserves. We have been producing day and night over the years, and there must always be an outlet for consumption, and they are the most suitable buyers. .”
Li Jingwen rolled her eyes and said, "Can we use these weapons to help with security?"
Ouyang Feng paused and was speechless. This sister really never forgets her brother.
Ouyang Feng said: "I have weapons, does he have anyone?"
Li Jingwen wanted to say: "He has no one, but we have people in Baituo Mountain."
