Chapter 119 stealing money
Why are these Jingzhou aristocratic families so cooperative with Yuan Shu? Didn’t they just see that the Yangzhou aristocratic families had eaten meat? The dazzling fiefdoms and contracts were placed there, and they were innocent. How could they not make people excited?
Otherwise, even if these Jingzhou aristocratic families do not fight Yuan Shu to death, they will not make it easy for Yuan Shu. If nothing else, Yuan Shu can bear it if he causes some trouble in the local area.
After all, Yuan Shu annexed Jingzhou too quickly. The entire Yangzhou developed in just one year, and Yuan Shu's accumulation was simply not enough to manage Jingzhou.
But a great opportunity was in front of Yuan Shu. If he didn't eat, it would not be so easy to eat in the future. So Yuan Shu gritted his teeth and captured Jingzhou while holding on.
If Yuan Shu wants to develop Jingzhou like Yangzhou, he will have to wait for about half a year until Yangzhou can really be self-sufficient and generate a lot of surplus.
Yuan Shu seems to have a lot of money now, but if he really starts construction in Jingzhou like Yangzhou, Yuan Shu will become a pauper in half a year at most.
It doesn't matter if Jingzhou collapses by then, if the aristocratic family and other princes bite back, Yangzhou will be pushed back to before liberation.
Yuan Shu is not short of money now, but he must always ensure that he has enough money in his hands to prevent others from seizing the opportunity to compete with him for capital and break the most critical point of his wealth cycle, and then the entire situation will collapse.
Therefore, for the sake of insurance, Yuan Shu would rather leave Jingzhou there and keep it as it is, while he also has to stabilize Yangzhou.
Yuan Shu swallowed Jingzhou and suddenly felt a little indigestion. From having no worries about money and food before, he was now short of money, food and backbone management talents. He had to let Jingzhou stay as it is for now, just make some improvements and slowly develop.
"Fengxiao, do you think there is any other way to raise money?" Yuan Shu looked at the various information about Jingzhou handed over by Jushu with a headache. He who originally thought he was very rich suddenly seemed to be back before liberation and became a pauper again.
.
Guo Jia took a sip of wine, looked at Yuan Shu's distressed look, and complained: "Master, are you making fun of Jia? You, the best at making and spending money, can't think of a way, so what can Jia do?"
"Speaking of which, my lord, are you a little too hasty? You must know that the rapid development of Yangzhou cannot be copied! The money you invested is almost enough to buy half of Yangzhou. Before, you were only able to do this with the sponsorship of the Yuan family's boss and Dong Zhuo.
Wayward, how can another amount of money fall from the sky now? Unless a mountain of copper falls on your head."
Guo Jia's last words were just unintentional words, but they made Yuan Shu's eyes light up. After a moment of thinking, he said excitedly: "Fengxiao, you are indeed a genius! If we don't have money, why don't we just find copper mines to make money?"
After all, with inflation, it’s other aristocratic families and princes who are losing money, not us.”
The more Yuan Shu thought about it, the more reliable he felt that this method was, and he kept nodding his head.
Guo Jia opened his mouth in surprise: "Hey, hey, my lord, Jia just said it casually, do you take it seriously? Although Jia doesn't know what you mean by inflation, where can there be so much?
Copper mines! Those good copper mines are all in the north, and we can't reach them. Besides, mining copper mines is also very troublesome. The rate of copper production is simply not enough to support our construction of Jingzhou. Wanting to get it is comparable to robbing Dong Zhuo
For money, my lord, you might as well rob another big prince!"
After hearing this, Yuan Shu was stunned again. Then instead of being disappointed, he smiled strangely: "Fengxiao, you are right. We not only want to dig copper mines to make money, but we can also rob them. But robbing the princes is meaningless. We
Go to other countries!”
"boom!"
The wine bottle in Guo Jia's hand fell to the ground, but Guo Jia didn't notice all this and stared at Yuan Shu: "What?"
"Hehe!" Yuan Shu rubbed his hands obscenely: "I have wanted to find something to do with them for a long time, and I just want to use this opportunity to educate them."
The next day, Yuan Shu summoned Gan Ning.
Now that Jingzhou has been won, this guy thought he was going to lose his job. He had been looking gloomy recently, but Yuan Shu excited him with just one sentence: "Xingba, are you interested in going overseas to destroy a country?"
"What?"
With the same words and the same feeling, Gan Ning, like Guo Jia, doubted whether Yuan Shu was joking.
"Ahem!"
Seemingly realizing that he had lost his composure, Yuan Shu coughed and said earnestly: "Xingba, you know about Japan!"
Gan Ning shook his head blankly: "I've never heard of it."
Yuan Shu choked. Did he remember it wrong? At this time, there was no such thing as the Japanese country.
"Well, across the sea in the east of Xuzhou, there are some short people who live in exile like my big man. Do you know this?"
Hearing this, Gan Ning nodded: "I've heard that those dwarves speak a different language than us grown men, but they are said to be very obedient. Some aristocratic families often buy these people as slaves to do some shady things."
"Well, that's right. These dwarves actually come from a group of several large islands opposite Xuzhou. And there are many large villages on it. Uh, no, it's a country."
When Yuan Shu mentioned the village, he immediately realized that he had slipped his words and quickly covered it up.
When Gan Ning saw Yuan Shu trying to conceal his identity, his expression felt a little unnatural. He intuitively told him that the villages Yuan Shu said were true, and that the country was just deceiving him.
"Lord, just tell me! Why do you want me to dominate?" Gan Ning said speechlessly. He was not stupid. He immediately realized that Yuan Shu obviously had many "details" that he had not told him.
Seeing that Gan Ning was not fooled, Yuan Shu scratched his head in embarrassment and simply took out Zhang Dahan's Thirteen States Map and drew a large circle on the upper right side of Xuzhou, where a certain island country was located.
Yuan Shu pointed to the circle and said: "There should be four huge islands here, with a large group of uncivilized aliens on them, so I want to send you to educate and lead them."
Seeing Gan Ning's confused look, Yuan Shu spread his arms and said, "Those islands combined are probably more than half the size of Yangzhou."
"hiss!"
Hearing this, Gan Ning took a deep breath.
Gan Ning also knew how things progressed after Jiang Qin found out about Yizhou.
An island as big as Wujun made the entire Yangzhou family go crazy.
But this time, good guy! Yuan Shu directly drew out an island group that was more than half the size of Yangzhou. Gan Ning's eyes suddenly lit up.
Jiang Qin was promoted to one level by the discovery of the Yizhou capital, from his deputy general to a general in charge of 20,000 naval troops. Moreover, as the only transporter, he also benefited from aristocratic families, although most of them were
They were handed over to Yuan Shu, but there were many left, and they were all swallowed up by his troops. It is said that the navy under his command bought more than a dozen new-type ships, which made Gan Ning very jealous.
Gan Ning suddenly became excited: "My lord, Gong Yi discovered that Yizhou, the capital of Wu Commandery, was promoted to one level and received a lot of benefits. So after taking over this island, can he be promoted to two levels?
"
Yuan Shu was stunned after hearing this, and then kicked him directly: "Get out! I am General Anton, but I am only at the third level. If you upgrade two more levels, you will be at the same level as me! You want to rebel! The most is one level.
, If you don’t do it, I’ll go find Cai Hao!”
Gan Ning did not dare to dodge at all. When he heard Yuan Shu's words, he quickly said with a shameless face: "Fuck! Fuck! Lord, I was joking just now! How dare I be on the same level as you! That old bird Cai Mao is not trustworthy.
It’s best for me, Xingba, to do this kind of thing. By the way, lord, is it true that my promotion to the next level is true?”
When Yuan Shu heard this, he immediately kicked Gan Ning again: "You're a good-for-nothing, you only know how to get promoted! I tell you, if you do this well, I can make you a county prince in the future."
!”
When Gan Ning heard this, he directly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Lord, for the title."
Yuan Shu stared blankly at this stupid fool. It took him a while to react, and he laughed and scolded: "Okay, you Gan Xingba. Go, go, go! As long as you do this well, in the future,
