~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the last book, it was mentioned that Colonel Demir, the city defense commander of Belgrade, and his old boss, planned the "Encirclement and Suppression of Porega" - according to the rebels foraging along the river, they set up a bureau, and they wanted to be afraid in the West Morava River. Porega, gather and wipe out most of the rebels in Nis.

This game is completely reasonable, and Demir also applauds the old boss.

DeMille brought 300 veterans and 700 new recruits. Although the number of veterans was small, in the Colonel's eyes, the city defense battalion remained the same.

With this glorious team, the colonel continues to guard his cherished Belgrade.

The old man brought 700 veterans and 1,800 recruits, ready to return to the capital, Kragujevac.

The old man's method is very tricky. He doesn't say anything nonsense, just let a veteran claim three recruits, and bring two recruits if they are not enough. Just bring two or three recruits and don't lose them. Whether or not to teach the registration experience is optional.

They are ready to rush to the capital to serve the motherland.

In order to speed up, Colonel Demir and his old boss, looking for the ship owner in Novi Sad, are going to pack a few big ships.

Here in Belgrade, the ship owner of Novi Sad also has a business point. Now the two cities are the representatives of good neighborliness and friendship, and they are the first cities to try out.

A young man first gave the colonel a military salute, and then turned to the master:

"General, where are you going?"

I heard that there is a charter business, and the ship owners are also very happy. This young man immediately came over and asked. Seeing his skillful salute and listening to his style, he should have been a soldier.

The old man took a look. The shipowners were two brothers, both veterans. One of them, a little older, was missing a hand. It was the younger one who came to consult.

"Where can I go to Kragujevac by water?"

Turkish generals don't know much about waterways, so they need to consult first.

"If you go to Kragujevac, a 3,000-ton boat will not be able to pass through Batocina, but a 1,000-ton boat will be able to cross the entire Great Morava River."

"General, how many people do you have? Besides people, what else do you need to bring?"

This shipowner is particularly good at talking. When old Carl, the military god, went down to the grassroots, he was the wounded soldier he encountered. With new nursing care, his arm was saved. He also lamented that the nursing was not earlier, if his brother's hand could also be Hold on, that would be great.

Now that I am a ship owner, that is, a front-line salesperson, the advantages of being able to chat are reflected:

His relationship with various shipowners is a life-threatening friendship. After all, he is looking for a living on the water, and there are still many gangsters in the river. He also has a good relationship with the shipyard. When he arrives at various piers, not to mention, it is a relationship of back and forth.

"2,500 people are the general equipment of soldiers, nothing else."

The old man didn't want to talk too much about him, but this question was necessary and had to be answered.

"In this way, General, you don't have to look for them one by one. I will find you 12 thousand-ton passenger ships, all of which are two-tiered. Each ship transports 210 soldiers and their salutes. It may be a little more compact, and it is a bit hard for the soldiers. "

"Is it a soldier? It's nothing to suffer at all. It's only when you're on the battlefield. It's nothing."

"Yes, General, you are a general in a hundred battles, and you know the suffering of the battlefield very well."

He immediately saluted again, and after praising the general, he asked again:

"General, I will help you find a ship. You give me 2 Rhein shields for each ship. As for the specific troop transportation cost, you can discuss it, or I can help you. Look... ·"

"Okay, I'll give you an intermediary fee of 30 Rhein Shields. The specific troop transport fee will be unified according to your price. You have to be quick, you can get it in an hour, 5 minutes late, deduct 1 Rhein Shield, and every three minutes in the morning, I will Add an extra Rhine shield. By the way, what's your name."

Of course the old man knew his tricks, but he was in a hurry, so he had to be quick. And at this level, you have to ask the name, it is not good to treat passers-by A, B, C.

"Okay, General, my name is Wayan, I'll do it for you right away."

He can't ask the general's name either, it doesn't matter anyway, it's not wrong to call him a general.

The owner of the ship, Wayan, called his brother who had lost a hand:

"Maric, if the business is successful, you can ride to Smederevo and tell them about the 2,500 recruits, and see if there is any new business to do."

Maric is just an ordinary person. Compared with Wayan, his social skills are far worse. Therefore, although he is an older brother, he is only his younger brother.

Wayan ran over and shouted:

"Brothers, big business is coming, chartered ships, high price, short time, the extra cost of each terminal this time, it is estimated that it will be much less. This is a troop transport ship, haha."

After listening to him, several shipowners understood, of course everyone would like it.

The business of chartering boats is the most profitable, although the price is slightly lower, and the trouble is the least. It’s like the taxi has a free driving fee. The chartered boat includes this fee. If you can bring a few people back, it will be extra money.

So, Wayan immediately settled with the owners of these 11 thousand-ton ships, and brought 11 people to the general's place. Well, in half an hour, he could earn 10 more rhine guilders.

"General, it's settled. Same as mine, the shipping fee is 60 Rhein Shields."

Then these veterans and new recruits crowded into the 12 double-decker passenger ships like chasing ducks.

Of course, these are all ordinary passenger ships, but there are no chairs, tables, etc., just rows of armrests. Everyone can sit or stand, depending on their mood.

The old man looked at these ships, looked at these active owners, looked at these crew members, and sighed again. Since he came back to Belgrade and Novi Sad, he didn't know how much he sighed.

The same sky, or even the same kind of person, the other side is developing so well, but the side of my own is still regressing and declining. What is going on?

Watching everyone get on the boat one after another, Maric rode on his horse and rushed towards Smederevo.

"General, if you have other business in the future, you can also come to us."

In the small hall outside the cab, Wayan came up and took the initiative to talk to the old man in a pleasing tone.

"Which part do you mainly do?"

"General, in the city cluster centered on Novi Sad, we all have passenger ships and cargo ships sailing. Of course, the size of the city is different, the number of shifts is also different, and the size of the ships is also different."

He saw the old man staring at the river and other ships in the front and back. He knew that the old man had something on his mind, or it was about these ships. He continued to expand and say:

"Upstream along the Danube, we have Sombor, and Osijek. Well, Osijek is a city on the tributary of the Drau River."

"Down, to Banstadt - you said Pančevo, Smederevo, of course Belgrade is also our focus, along the Sava River, to Shabac, and for freight, a little bit further up ."

"Where's the Great Morava? Where do you go?"

the old man asked casually.

"General, in the Morava River Basin, we can only drive to Batocina, and further upstream, our thousand-ton ships can also drive there, but there are too many checkpoints along the way, and business is losing money, so these routes have not been opened for the time being. "

"Below Bartochina, is there no checkpoint?"

"Yes, but we paid a little extra and got it done. General, to be honest, your tax rate is much higher than Austria's."

He looked at the general and said cautiously:

"General, let me say something, don't be angry."

"You said, I listen, what's the point of being angry, isn't it just making money from various checkpoints along the way?"

"General, you paid a lot of money, but it's a pity that it all fell into the hands of the people below. Your Turkish Governor's Palace didn't receive much money, and you killed the entire market."

He paused and said:

"General, think about it, we don't do business, so what if the tax rate you charge is higher? We in Austria have a relatively low tax rate, but the market is getting bigger and bigger, and the tax collected above is still increasing."

Everyone knows this principle, but how to implement it is a difficult problem.

This fleet of 12 thousand-ton ships, mighty and mighty, went down the Danube River, of course, they also greeted you along the way, otherwise, any city will praise you with artillery.

When I got to Smederevo, I took a break and added some food. The Austrian kindly asked if I wanted to buy some guns and ammunition.

Well, the old man thought that when the soldiers were transferred, those small groups of people who made troubles would not be able to distinguish themselves, small groups formed a group, and the idea of ​​attacking the city defense army, and they were cruel and bought guns and ammunition.

Major Richter smiled. The price is the same as Jovanovitch. The key is to save on shipping. It's for Jovanovitch, but the CIF price. For this old man, it's only FOB, FOB to CIF. For one price, the profit is much higher.

These more than ten large ships drove forward from the city of Smederevo for another four or five kilometers, and turned into the Great Morava River.

Here in Pozarevac, I received a fee, but I didn't dare to collect the private money. After all, this is a military ship, and there is a major general in charge of it.

"Wayan, you are very deep, you can handle this troop transport."

The official of the tax card was very familiar with Wayan and joked.

"Well, don't talk nonsense. Brothers, we are in serious business. We didn't have a relationship, we didn't say hello to the leaders, and it wasn't as you imagined. I have no background in the military, and I'm not familiar with your military."

"Just pretend it for me. You have something to do with it. In the future, you can take this road often, and we can contact more."

"Let's put it this way, brothers, it's definitely not common to transport troops. This time, I can't honor you guys. Next time, I'll make up for it."

"Wayan, you are slapping your brothers in the face. These fees are for those scumbags. You, we can't charge them any more."

"Brothers~www.wuxiaspot.com~ I don't agree with these words. You also have a family and a family, old and young. In order to serve the empire, you can't let your wife and children eat chaff. Come back to me. Give the red envelopes again, it’s hard to deal with people with too many eyes now.”

Then, in the Grand Prana, in Svilainac, and in Batocina, this important checkpoint, all the way through.

Of course, these places are also places to eat along the way, and the outposts have been opened in advance, and the administrative leaders have also come.

Anyway, the singing and dancing are peaceful here, and the cities along the West Morava River and the South Morava River have not suffered a few waves of raids like the cities along the banks of the West Morava River and the South Morava River.

Along the way, the old man and Wayan also had a good chat. After all, Wayan could talk and took the initiative to solve problems for the client; the old man had a lot of things in his heart and needed an audience.

"General, Turkey and Austria, since the two countries have signed an agreement, there will be no wars in the next few years. I think you can send a few of your family's juniors to Novi Sad to learn about Austria, military politics and industry. Direction, your family must develop."

After chatting on the road, Watts also knew that the old man's family, called Bellat, was a scholarly family.

In the Berat family, he was the first soldier to serve in the army. In his fifties, he was officially appointed as the Chief of the City Defense Staff and Deputy Commander of the Serbian Governorate. There is also a son, nearly 30 years old, with the rank of lieutenant colonel, and several nephews, all of whom are still young, lieutenant-captain.

In the administrative system, there is a congressman, in Belgrade, there is a sheriff, a retired major, and in Kragujevac's police system, he is the third-in-command, but he is going to be the first-in-command in a smaller city.

Wayan deliberately pretended to be embarrassed. The feeling is that although I have known you for a while, I admire you very much and always want to do my best for you.
