Liu Tao's words were really constantly impacting the three views of these people in front of him. They didn't even expect that war could be viewed as a business. However, Liu Tao's analysis of the pragmatic and implicit statements sounded very reasonable.

He didn't say it clearly, but everyone could hear that Emperor Wu of Han used to be overly pursuing and even not pragmatic, but ended up being majestic for a while, but the people's livelihood was withered.

"That brother... If you attack the Hu people, how should you fight?" Zhang Fei was quite straightforward and asked when he thought of it. Fortunately, he didn't say the word "Huns".

"There are some ideas, the question is, is it too early to say this now?" Liu Tao cursed, "We have only one enemy at present, and only one, that is, the Yellow Turban Thief who is in trouble. For the others, you can think about it yourself, how to be pragmatic and purposive. If you figure it out, talk to me in private, and it doesn't matter if we discuss and discuss it."

"Indeed, let's not talk so much nonsense. Five hundred people are reorganized, and there are a lot of follow-up things... By the way, leggings seem to be a bit insufficient..." Lu Yan echoed, and then remembered something.

"You can let the soldiers prepare by themselves. If nothing else, do you need to prepare your leggings specifically?" Jian Yong felt that there was no need to be so anxious.

Listening to the two of them, Liu Tao was actually a little dazed.

After traveling through time, I realized that people of this era were actually ready to gait leggings. Before that, he thought this was a special technology of our army.

Think about it, if horses are said to be cars of this era, then it is definitely not something that everyone can afford to buy and maintain. Most of the time, the people rely on their own legs. Especially those soldiers, if they do not have leggings, they will travel hundreds of miles a day. How is this possible?

Just say that the soles of the shoes are not thick enough, especially the straw shoes, which wear faster when fully armed. Fortunately, the official road is like a forest, and it is not even a road to the official road, so it is simply tossing. Fortunately, most soldiers already have thick calluses on the soles of their feet. In other words, officers like Liu Tao are not obviously able to travel with horses.

Leggings, let alone the army, there are many people in the people who will harness their leggings themselves, which is not a rare thing. But this way, Liu Tao is a little unhappy, but he lacks the opportunity to show off.

What Jian Yong and Lu Yan said was really Liu Tao’s fault. No one expected that five hundred people would join the army suddenly.

Since we are recruiting, we must always have equipment, weapons, armor, etc. There are some spare parts on the baggage, but leggings... Isn't there five hundred soldiers who have no spare parts? Not to mention, these five hundred people also need one spare part?

Finally, the discussion came out. I had some ‘extra money’ before, so I bought some cloth from the cloth dealer to make leggings.

"Canshan, why do you feel more and more like a housekeeper recently?" Liu Tao couldn't tease him. Since Lu Yan became this military advisor, his stinginess has become increasingly stronger.

"The entire army's expenditure is with me. Although there is support from the Zhen family now, who can guarantee that it will stop suddenly? In order to prevent it, the more materials, the better, and the less expenditure, the better." Lu Yan shook his head. Since he became this military advisor, he realized that the military's civil service was full of things.

That is, so many military officers have come to help recently, otherwise the military affairs of these 5,000 people would definitely be forced to death.

"There is no need to think so much. As long as we can win battles, Zhen will not give up on us. Just as I said to you before, this is actually part of the transaction and is pragmatic. For Zhen, we are part of the transaction, and Zhen is part of the transaction to us, which is called win-win." Liu Tao whispered.

"Can this still be like this?" Lu Yan didn't expect it. If he thought about it carefully, it seemed like this.

What the Zhen family needs is that Liu Tao helps them restore public order in Zhongshan. After all, they can't even go home now. At the same time, their business is food, and it is their urgent need to resume production as soon as possible.

Then there is naturally the development of the Zhen clan, for example, the few people who have entered the army now. Although they are just sidelines, if Liu Tao develops well in the future, he may not be able to increase his bargaining chips. Of course, there is another reason, that is, Zhen Yi and his sons are still young.

"Businessmen are pursuing profits, but because they are pursuing profits, it is sometimes more convenient than talking about feelings. As long as you can make them profit, you won't worry about their betrayal unless someone bids a higher price." Liu Tao shook his head.

There must be some Yi Shang, but like this, the merchants developed from a large family have more benefits. For example, Yuan Shao became the overlord of Hebei, and they could marry Yuan Shao and marry Zhen Luo to Yuan Xi. When Cao Cao came, Yuan Xi had not died yet, so he married Zhen Luo to Cao Pi again.

In Liu Tao's view, Zhen obviously belongs to the kind of businessman who values ​​interests.

"Oh..." Lu Yan nodded mutely, not knowing whether he understood it. But what is certain is that what Liu Tao said today did have a great impact on his three views.

Many things have never been thought about from this perspective before. After changing the angle, it seems that many things have become simpler. At this moment, it seems like I have discovered a new world, or if the child discovers a new toy, he immediately goes to his room for a while, thinking that he has to record it.

"Is this an epiphany?" Liu Tao sighed a little, "After that being said, Lu Yan has changed a lot recently..."

When Lu Yan met, he should have been a Confucian scholar, gentle or elegant. He seemed to be always slow and calm, and he felt calm and steady in everything. If he didn't look at his age, sometimes he really felt that he was older than his.

As a result, after contacting him over the past few months, his personality seems to be getting more and more reckless. It may be that his military life cannot be so leisurely, or that he may have too much work and he cannot deal with it slowly.

So his thinking began to develop towards the military and his personality began to approach the soldiers. The shadow of the past seemed to become increasingly weaker.

"If you continue like this, Lu Zhi won't chase me for thousands of miles with his knife, right?" Liu Tao was a little suspicious. According to his understanding, Lu Zhi should hope that Lu Yan will become a gentle and gentle literati, but he turned out to be a qualified officer.

It shouldn't be that bad, right? At least Lu Yan has become pragmatic, which is the most rare thing. Moreover, the character he has developed over 20 years is not something that can change by changing. He can't do it himself, let alone him?

After thinking for a long time, Liu Tao seemed to realize a problem: Lu Yan ran away, who will do the subsequent work? After looking at Lu Yan's room, he couldn't help but wonder... This guy didn't do it on purpose, right?

Seeing a few people joining the army, holding documents, they came to me like this... I couldn't help but sigh: Canshan has really learned bad things!
