It is easier said than done to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. At first glance, every project carried out by this stall in Wallachia seems to have its own necessity, and it seems that no one can be given up. Anyway, in a hurry, Alexei can't do any of them.
Reluctant to part with it.
As for open source, Alexey has no choice. The only way he can think of is to borrow money, but the attitude of the Prussians is already there. Borrowing money is not easy!
If you can't even borrow money from Prussia, then there's no need to even think about other places. Alexey didn't think of any other way even if he wanted to go bald.
Li Xiao also sighed. In fact, this group of brothers, including himself, are actually not good at business. The reason why he seems to be okay is because he is a time traveler. Without the experience of later generations, he may not be as good as Ah.
Lexie.
It's just that, although the experiences of later generations are good, they cannot be applied to everything. After all, the background of the times is different and cannot be applied mechanically.
Excluding the experiences of later generations, Li Xiao also found it difficult, but he was not without any solution. He thought for a moment and then said:
"If you want to make money, in addition to trying to raise funds, you can only use extraordinary means."
Alexey and Vishnyak were both stunned, not understanding what the so-called extraordinary means were.
In fact, Li Xiao was also very hesitant, because such evil tactics were really bad for character, but now he could only bite the bullet and use it.
He said slowly: "The simplest and most direct way is to rob and take advantage of the Turks..."
Alexey and Vishniak looked at each other in shock, because they really didn't expect that Li Xiao would come up with such a bad idea. Wouldn't this just make them robbers?
Although this is a bit disturbing, if the target of robbery is Turkey, they will not have much psychological burden. The only problem is how to rob!
If two heavily armed groups are confronting each other along the Danube River, and the long front is crowded with soldiers from both sides, how can we steal it? How can we rob it?
At least Alexei and Vishniak could not think of any way to cross the Turkish defense lines and rob the Turks.
Li Xiao sighed, feeling very sorry for the imagination and creativity of his friends. He reminded: "It is indeed difficult for our army to cross the defense line, but we don't have to do it ourselves!"
Alexey and Vishnyak suddenly became even more confused. Are there such good robbers and bandits in the world that they take the initiative to rob and then honor them? Not only have they never seen this kind of pie-in-the-sky delicacy, they have just heard of it.
Never heard of it!
Li Xiao sighed again, rubbed his temples and replied: "In Bulgaria and Turkey, there are a large number of Orthodox brothers who support and sympathize with us. They are the ones we can use to organize and arm them appropriately.
It’s not that difficult to do things in the heart of Bulgaria and Turkey!”
Alexei and Vishniak looked at me and I looked at you, both of them were a little shocked, because Li Xiao's imagination was beyond his expectation, and he let the Slavs and Orthodox Christians in Bulgaria or Turkey cause trouble and rob wealth.
Funding Wallachia gave them the feeling of robbing the poor and giving to the rich.
Yes, you read that right, it is robbing the poor to give to the rich instead of robbing the rich to give to the poor. Why? Probably in the eyes of Alexei and Vishnyak, the Slavic and Orthodox brothers in Turkey have been bullied and live in
In dire straits.
Under such circumstances, if you still ask them to do such a dangerous thing, isn't this pushing them into a pit of fire?
Moreover, with the support of Britain and France, the Turks are becoming more and more powerful. How can we bear to let them, who are almost unarmed, fight against the Turks?
Li Xiao held his forehead and explained helplessly: "Are you mistaken? How can we rob the poor and give to the rich? We are not over-appropriately arming the Orthodox and Slavic brothers who are willing to cooperate with us in fighting Turkish pagans.
Give them the opportunity to protect themselves and assist us in fighting the enemy. We will support and provide them with weapons and ammunition, and even send military advisers to train and guide them on how to fight the enemy... We naturally have the right to share part of the spoils they harvest. With this money
, we can produce more weapons and give them more support, isn’t this something that complements each other?”
Alexei and Vishnyak were speechless for a while. They finally saw how terrible it is when someone is shameless, and they packaged such an evil and shameless thing in such a majestic way. Well, they also kind of liked this tone.
Vishnyak and Alexei asked in unison: "What should we do?"
"It's very simple," Li Xiao said eloquently, "I've almost done the first step this time. On this trip to Ineada, I have already made progress with the more radical and combat-effective Slavic and Orthodox brothers in Bulgaria and Turkey.
Got in touch.”
Alexei and Vishniak were surprised again. They thought that Li Xiao's trip was just to contact Leboeuf to find out what was going on in France. Who would have thought that someone actually went to contact the anti-Turkish Orthodox forces in Turkey?
.
However, this also saves a lot of effort. Now that someone has been contacted, all you need to do is implement it step by step.
Sure enough, Li Xiao continued: "We have reached a preliminary agreement. These Slavic and Orthodox brothers are willing to cooperate with us in taking up arms to attack the Turks. As long as we can provide appropriate military assistance, they will be able to arm themselves soon."
"This is great!"
Vishniak was the first to express his happiness. Having fought in the Caucasus, he knew very well how annoying the resistance armed forces and guerrillas were. They were tortured to the point of death if Paskovich hadn't been tough enough.
The tactics are ruthless enough, but you really can't defeat those moles who are hiding in the dark and shooting black guns.
Alexey still has doubts: "What is moderate support? You must know that we are very tight in terms of weapons and ammunition. If they ask for too much, I'm afraid..."
Li Xiao waved his hand and said: "That's not a big problem. We can support them with the Turkish weapons we captured before. They are familiar with it and it is easy to replenish ammunition."
Well, Alexey and Vishniak rolled their eyes again, because the Turks' weapons are so crappy, it's equivalent to exchanging a pile of scrap metal for free with those poor Slavic and Orthodox brothers.
Gold and silver, this is too shameless no matter how you look at it.
But Li Xiao doesn't think so: "They don't need particularly good weapons. Logistics supplies can give them a headache, and their main targets are Turkish wealthy people. There is no need to deal with them and harass the Turks' logistical lines at all."
