Chapter 535: Secret Transaction
Zhang Yu personally took people to meet Xu You at the gate of Daying.
The Great God of Wealth is here, how can we neglect it.
"Master Xu, I heard your name a long time ago, and we can finally meet each other," Zhang Yu said.
Xu You took it seriously, and stroked his beard triumphantly.
Zhang Yu secretly despised, no wonder Xu You was full of talent in history, but Yuan Shao and Cao Cao didn't like him.
This Yuan Shao is the superior, and Xu You has always been called Yuan Shao Benchu, not the lord, and he is often rude in front of him.
The same is true for Cao Cao, who became even more arrogant after taking refuge in Cao Cao.
He often called Cao Cao to hide from Cao A.
Not at all conscious.
"Haha, Mr. Zhang is really different from other people." Xu You said.
Zhang Yu came to greet him in person, Xu You was a little flustered.
The two entered the big tent.
The two chatted on the road.
After arriving at the tent, Zhang Yu was not in a hurry to talk about business.
"It's rare for Master Xu to come here, how about we get drunk tonight?" Zhang Yu asked.
"Okay, okay, of course, it's just that I still have business to talk about, why don't we talk about business first." Xu You said.
Xu You's mind is still clear, and he knows his mission.
"Okay, then I don't know what Master Xu is here for?" Zhang Yu said.
"You and I are both tired after fighting for so long, why don't we stop fighting?" Xu You asked tentatively.
Zhang Yu laughed, and laughed for a while before saying: "It's not impossible to stop the army, but what benefits can Yuan Benchu give me, now that Cao Cao invaded Qingzhou, I really can't beat Yuan Shao."
Zhang Yu would not be polite, and directly expressed his attitude.
"My lord still has three hundred thousand soldiers,
Even if you can't attack Lord Zhang, it is more than enough to block Lord Zhang's attack. "Xu You said.
Obviously, the two are ready to start a rivalry and strive for the greatest benefit.
Zhang Yu never played cards according to the routine, and he didn't plan to continue testing with Xu You.
Because Zhang Yu already had a rough idea of Yuan Shao's hole cards, and Xu You didn't know his own situation, so it's better to point directly.
"Let's just say it straight. Yuan Shao will never be able to support a two-front battle. Even if he can, he will definitely not be worth the loss. At that time, there is a danger of failure on both sides, and Yuan Shao will be seriously injured at that time."
"So, let's all be quick, I don't know what conditions Yuan Shao can offer." Zhang Yu said.
Xu You is of course a smart person, knowing that it is useless to continue probing, so he said: "Yuan Benchu is willing to buy weapons and equipment from Mr. Zhang to repair the previous conflict. I wonder what Mr. Zhang will do?"
Zhang Yu's eyes lit up. The business he launched has not sold much equipment so far. Now it seems that Yuan Shao may become the biggest customer.
After thinking about it, I also understand that if Zhang Yu is to stop the army, he must give benefits.
Losing money is for giving, it is better to use it to buy equipment.
Zhang Yu asked again: "Of course, but how much does Yuan Shao have to buy? I can't do less, you know, I have lost a lot in this battle."
"Master Zhang, don't worry, as long as the price is reasonable, you can buy more." Xu You said.
Zhang Yu put on the posture of not stalking the eagle if he doesn't see the rabbit, and sat there leisurely, waiting for Xu You to speak.
"Hmph, a businessman who only cares about profit, no wonder people despise him." Seeing Zhang Yu's appearance, Xu You was very unhappy, cursed secretly and said, "How about 50,000 sets of armor and weapons?"
Fifty thousand sets, in fact, is not a small amount, and it will cost millions of dollars in addition.
But at this time, Zhang Yu couldn't spend millions of dollars.
"It's too little, twice as much is barely enough." Zhang Yu said.
"Hehe." Xu You said noncommittally: "One hundred thousand sets, can you get them out? If it takes a year or two, then there is no need for the two parties to trade."
"Don't worry, even if it's too late to call now, I can take off the active military uniform on my soldiers." Zhang Yu replied.
One hundred thousand sets of equipment is not difficult for Zhang Yu, and he can take it out immediately.
"It's really a guy with an eye for money. He can even take off the active equipment. He is not afraid that we will take the equipment and come back immediately. We will see what you can use to resist it." Xu You secretly said.
Even if he really wanted to take off the weapons and equipment of the active soldiers, Zhang Yu would not take off the equipment of the main battle army.
When Zhang Yu created two versions of equipment, the main battle equipment was naturally the best.
And the equipment sold to others is relatively poor, and at the same time, the second-line army and the garrison army use relatively poor equipment.
Otherwise, Zhang Yu has built so many equipment for takeaway, if no one comes to buy it, it is not because a large amount of equipment is backlogged in his hands.
It just happened to be used by the garrison army.
Seeing that Zhang Yu could indeed produce 100,000 sets of equipment, Xu You was secretly delighted. The amount they needed this time was still very large, and 100,000 sets could not meet Yuan Shao's needs.
This time Yuan Shao lost more than 400,000 troops. In addition to the loss of Qingzhou, he lost 500,000 troops.
To equip 500,000 troops, I don't know how much time it will take to build a batch of equipment, but Yuan Shao doesn't have that much time now.
Xu You continued: "Okay, then 100,000 sets of equipment, but it must be traded within half a month, and the price will be calculated according to the price you announced in Jiangdong."
Zhang Yu naturally agreed, one hundred thousand sets of equipment is not difficult for him.
"Master Xu, it's a pleasure to negotiate a deal with you. The 100,000 sets of equipment have been settled in this way. These are trivial matters. I don't know if Master Xu wants to do something big." Zhang Yu said.
Xu You rolled his eyes, and then said: "What big things can we talk about? The 100,000 sets of equipment are not big things?"
"It doesn't count, it doesn't count, it's just a business transaction, it's not a big deal." Zhang Yu waved his hands repeatedly and said.
"Then what can be called a big event?" Xu You asked.
"Important matter?" Zhang Yu moved a little closer, and then said in a low voice, "Military and state affairs can only be called important events, and they should be discussed with Master Xu's status."
Xu You was full of doubts, and then asked: "Master Zhang, please clarify."
"Master Xu, if you want to be the master, then buy 50,000 more sets of equipment. Then I will take off the active equipment and sell it to you. My soldiers and horses have no weapons and equipment, so they will naturally retreat. If both sides can retreat at the same time?"
Zhang Yu chuckled a few times and said, "Yuan Shao wants to retreat the most now, and the credit for this will be all yours, Mr. Xu."
Xu You's eyes brightened, which was indeed a great achievement.
Now that Yuan Shao was in a hurry and wanted to go back and take back Qingzhou, it was naturally the best choice to retreat.
"Buying an extra 50,000 sets of equipment is something that can be done. It's just that I don't have that much money for a while, so I can't get you the money right away," Xu You said.
What Xu You said may be true, but in fact he had his own plan in mind, he was looking for an excuse to go back and take credit for Yuan Shaona first.
If it is done easily, his credit will be small at that time, and if he gets things done through his own "efforts" back and forth, then his credit will be great.
This Xu You has always been a smart person. At the beginning, he had conflicts with Yuan Shao because of self-interest, and later he betrayed Yuan Shao and went to Cao Cao because of self-interest.
Therefore, at this time, he quickly understood that it was a great opportunity to reap benefits for himself.
"Haha, there's no problem with that. As long as the agreement is signed, I'm not afraid that Yuan Shao won't pay back the money." Zhang Yu said.
Xu You immediately found an excuse to go back and report, and assured Zhang Yu that this matter would definitely work. The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms
