25: I am a legitimate businessman
A temporary passage was left in the middle for the workers to use for mining, but these roads will all be blocked tomorrow.
Everyone was working with great enthusiasm.
Han Huohuo checked the dense forest nearby; it was full of potholes, so it was clearly not reliable to run up the mountain from the dense forest.
Worried that the soldiers might shamelessly use fire attacks, Han Huohuo also had the workers cut down all the dry grass near the camp and chop down all the trees that were close by.
Then, a large amount of water was taken from the well and put into huge wooden barrels. This water was for emergencies and could be used to put out fires at any time.
A few hours later.
The camp's fortifications were basically completed.
On a Stone Mountain, three sides were cliffs, the surroundings were completely cleared, and an indestructible camp was revealed in the middle.
The gate faced the only road up the mountain and was covered with abatis.
The only drawback of this small hillside was that the slope was not steep enough, and rolling stones could not be deployed. Han Huohuo did not have the work to make rolling stones at the moment. He did consider it, but in the end, he had no choice but to give up.
There was no regret; he did what he could with the conditions he had.
When the arrangements were almost complete.
Han Huohuo opened the forum and contacted Wang Dali.
"Dali, I'll teach you a way to make money, do you want to hear it?"
"Huh? Da Ge Han, of course I want to make money? Tell me, how do I make money?"
"Brother, your front line is the most forward, so you have the most authority to speak. Didn't you observe the military camp opposite? This information is intelligence! You can sell intelligence!"
"Ah, intelligence can also be sold?"
"Of course! In this world, intelligence is the most valuable thing! How can you easily tell others? You have to pay."
"......But, how do I sell this intelligence? I'm not very good at talking either."
Han Huohuo had contacted Wang Dali before and knew that this kid was probably semi-illiterate and didn't understand the economic benefits involved. He was well-prepared and chuckled.
"Brother, I'll help you write the intelligence in a while. Don't sell it too expensively. The key to this thing is quantity and satisfaction. Five pieces of wood per copy is enough, otherwise people won't buy it."
"Oh, Da Ge, you're even helping me with this? You're truly my family!"
Wang Dali was extremely moved.
Han Huohuo quickly sent a prepared piece of intelligence to Wang Dali: "Take a look and see if the content is correct. If there's no problem, you can start selling it. It's okay, I'll be your shill and guarantee you sell it!"
Wang Dali took the intelligence and looked at it. The content was very detailed, describing the types of soldiers, formations, and attack methods of the soldiers. The soldier types were definitely correct, but there were some skills that he didn't even know, but Han Huohuo did. Da Ge Han was truly amazing.
And then there were a few sentences about strategies to deal with them at the end.
".....Because all the soldiers are infantry, the primary defensive weapon is the abatis. A camp with abatis and a camp without abatis are two completely different states. This is an essential defensive facility......"
This was Han Huohuo's private addition, of course, it sounded absolutely reasonable.
Wang Dali finished reading Han Huohuo's military treatise and was utterly impressed. Da Ge not only knew how to write but also how to analyze the battle situation. After reading it, he was already a little excited and was about to look online to find out where to buy abatis.......
"Brother, hurry up and sell the intelligence first, and then talk about earning resources."
"Okay, Da Ge, I'll go sell it right away."
This guy was quite honest and immediately went online to sell it, but everyone was half-believing and only a few people traded and bought a few copies.
Wang Dali was not famous, and many people hadn't even seen it!
Han Huohuo also pretended to buy a copy.
"Ah, Brother Dali, I remember your camp is in the front row of the Ten Thousand Mountains, only you can see the soldiers' large camp. This intelligence is too detailed, I have to thank you for selling such important intelligence."
"Da Ge, you're too kind!"
As soon as Han Huohuo spoke, the whole network was instantly in an uproar. No one cared what Wang Dali said, but Han Huohuo was different.
The Hero who wiped out the Barbarians, the scumbag who specifically bullied old ladies and was irresponsible, how famous was Han Huohuo.
Everyone looked over one after another.
"Huh, isn't this Han Huohuo, who only likes old ladies? He says this intelligence is reliable?"
"Don't talk nonsense, Han Huohuo is a Boss. He was the one who got rid of all the Barbarians back then."
"Even the Boss thinks this intelligence is very valuable?"
"It's only five pieces of wood, you'll know if you buy a copy and check."
"That makes sense!"
Everyone was discussing inside.
With the endorsement of Han Huohuo, the intelligence was selling like hotcakes in no time!
Although a piece of intelligence was only 5 pieces of wood, there were a lot of people! Wang Dali's hands were sore from collecting money. While putting money into sacks, he was also profusely grateful to Han Huohuo. This Da Ge was truly righteous!
Actually, Da Ge also knew about this intelligence, and this intelligence was written by Da Ge for me, but he didn't sell it himself, but let me sell it. Where can I find such a good Da Ge?
He had never met such a kind person in his life.
Tears were about to flow out.
Han Huohuo didn't sell it, of course not because he was so kind. This guy was thinking far ahead. His camp was deep inside the mountains and he couldn't see the soldiers' large camp at all. Who would believe him if he went to sell intelligence?
Information is very developed in this world, and Wang Dali's exact location can be found with a little effort. That is definitely a front-line camp, genuine. The reliability of this intelligence is greatly improved!
Moreover, Han Huohuo didn't plan to make this money. He wanted to make the money later.
In a short while, countless people had finished reading the intelligence and started looking for abatis all over the world.
Of course, Han Huohuo was not the only one who had the abatis blueprints.
But the production was almost filling up the camp, and only Han Huohuo had a large amount of stock now, because Han Huohuo had a lot of wood, and the workshop had been working hard to produce, and his workers had been collecting wood day and night before.
The first supplier is definitely Han Huohuo.
Han Huohuo doesn't need other resources, he needs black stone too much now.
He put the abatis up for sale, one abatis for one black stone.
Everyone was confused when they saw this trading condition.
Very few people collected black stone. Seeing Han Huohuo's strange demand, everyone went crazy. Many Lords who had black stone near their homes quickly sent workers to collect it.
Han Huohuo thought for a long time and finally figured out one thing: if he were to collect black stone by himself, how much could he collect?
The Black Stone Mines are so scattered, and the difficulty of collecting is as great as ascending to heaven!
Recruiting soldiers requires black stone, and upgrading the Mecha Workshop also requires black stone. His own black stone will never be enough, so he must mobilize everyone in the Ten Thousand Mountains to dig black stone for him!
Originally there was no opportunity, but taking advantage of this crisis, this matter became feasible.
So he didn't want anything, only black stone.
The coal miners of the Ten Thousand Mountains quickly began to act. Anyone who found black stone near their homes all started mining together.
His biggest bottleneck in development, black stone, was brutally broken by Han Huohuo in this way.
Although there were also many Lords who had abatis blueprints, the market was still in short supply. Exchanging with other resources was more expensive. It was better to collect black stone. One black stone could be exchanged for one abatis!
One hundred pieces of wood on the market could only be exchanged for one abatis.
However, collecting one black stone was only equivalent to the time it takes to collect fifty pieces of wood.
In other words, Han Huohuo's abatis were half the price of others, the only difference was that they had to be traded with black stone.
Who could resist this temptation!
Putting the abatis into automatic trading, Han Huohuo didn't care anymore. Anyway, he told Liu Long to work overtime to produce, and the workshop almost smoked from working so hard.
Arriving at the workshop first, Han Huohuo encouraged Liu Long, who patted his chest and declared that he would definitely complete the task.
Just then.
Gou San suddenly came from outside, poking his head in and asking, "Liu Long, have you finished making that fish hook for me?"
Liu Long frowned and threw a fish hook to Gou San from the workbench behind him: "Okay, don't bother me these two days. I have a very important task and don't have time to deal with you."
Gou San took the fish hook with a smile.
"Ah, King, you're here too?"
This guy only realized that the Boss was also in the workshop after getting the fish hook, and immediately became nervous.
"Gou San? What do you want Liu Long to make you a fish hook for?"
"K... King... I don't know... you're here too, I just wanted to go fishing, it's nothing."
