Chapter 324 The poor and the rich

Cao Cao was not worried about Gongsun Zan's rise. Instead, he was as happy as Yuan Shu. Because he also knew that Gongsun Zan's prosperity was entirely dependent on Yuan Shu's own money for assistance. As long as Yuan Shu could not hold on, Gongsun Zan would have to

Finished playing.

Yes, in the eyes of the princes of the world, Yuan Shu was completely wasting money and food and damaging his own capital. After all, people in this era knew very little about business, and only the merchants and aristocratic families in Jiangdong understood what this was about. Other estimates

Only Xun Yue under Liu Bei knew something about this. Even Xun Yu only vaguely felt that there were some problems in it, but did not think about it in detail.

Anyway, it was Yuan Shu's money and food that was wasted. Except for Yuan Shao who was very angry about this, the other princes were secretly happy. Even if Yuan Shu had more money, how many years could he last for so long? It's a pity that Dong Zhuo and the Yuan family have so much money and food.

, were all ruined by this prodigal son.

Except for Xun Yue, who had in-depth research on Yuan Shu, and some counselors and businessmen who were good at business, everyone outside Jiangdong regarded Yuan Shu as a fool who didn't know the importance and spent money recklessly. Little did they know that Yuan Shu was also treating him in the same way.

The princes of the world looked at the princes with the eyes of a fool. Jiangdong's top counselors who barely understood the reason also expressed deep sorrow for these princes. Sooner or later, if this continues, Yuan Shu will be able to "buy" the entire world.

Even if Yuan Shu didn't understand things like economic warfare, he could slowly figure it out. If nothing else, Gongsun Zan is now a typical example. For Gongsun Zan who is used to exchanging money and food from Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu only needs to interrupt the transaction.

Youzhou will be in chaos within half a year at most. If Yuan Shu is secretly scheming, the entire Youzhou may change hands.

Although the Central Plains is now very powerful and prosperous, in fact, less than half of the food in the Central Plains is provided by Yuan Shu. As long as Yuan Shu takes action, it is guaranteed that Cao Cao will die of poverty, and it is estimated that Yuan Shao, a real rich man, can barely survive.

Live, even Liu Bei in Yuzhou can't last long. After all, Yuan Shu can not only stop providing food, but also buy it! With the Yuzhou family's urine, as long as there is profit, they will not care about Liu Bei's life and death. Anyway, it is the food they provide.

Who is selling but not selling?

However, Yuan Shu did not dare to use this method lightly. After all, before he traveled through time, he was just a rich second generation who was just waiting to die, and he only knew a little about these things. People in this era just have a poor vision. In terms of IQ, Yuan Shu can

Far inferior to them. What if Yuan Shu uses it and kills the snake but gets bitten instead?

If one of the opponent's counselors figures out all this, and then draws parallels and comes up with more bad ideas, which in turn deceives him, Yuan Shu will be depressed. Moreover, economic warfare also has some limitations, and it cannot eliminate the enemy.

It can cause some trouble. So Yuan Shu only plans to use it before the final battle, catching the opponent off guard and forcing the opponent to fight with him.

"Sometimes it's really sad to think about it." Cao Cao laughed at himself: "I am so poor here that the people under my command have trouble even having enough to eat. The soldiers can only barely get enough food and clothing. If it weren't for Yuan Jiujiu's kindness as a woman, she would have sold out

I have some food, but I guess the bones under my command are all over the place."

"When my brother's family is short of firewood, he is reluctant to buy it. My niece goes out to collect firewood by herself. Even I don't have many luxuries at home, and I am extremely frugal. But Yuan Gongli is better off. He goes out to patrol with great fanfare. Three thousand

Soldiers accompanied us. After playing all the way in Jingzhou, we were planning to go to Yizhou. The money and food in our hands were so much that it was almost moldy. Not only did we spend money on various things in Jiangdong, we also had spare money to support Gongsun Zan and Lu Bu. It's really irritating that people are more popular than others.

ah!"

Cao Cao really had a deep hatred for Yuan Shu. This was a kind of resentment towards the second generation of rich people. I don’t even dare to buy instant noodles here in a bucket. You are not willing to eat a lot of fish and meat every day. You have a dog.

The monthly living expenses are more than mine. It’s really unreasonable!

You know, Cao Cao's life has been tight since he became a man, and he didn't dare to waste every stone of food. Historically, Xia Houyuan's daughter was kidnapped by Zhang Fei and made his wife because she was collecting firewood outside. You must know that

But Xia Houyuan's daughter! Go to collect firewood in person. You can think about how poor Cao Cao was. He was so poor that he had no choice but to let his soldiers eat human flesh!

As long as he can survive, he will eat human flesh. Cao Cao is so pragmatic and ruthless. This guy is used to being poor. Every time he goes to war, it is not only to grab territory, but also a large part of the reason is because there is not enough food.

, cannot afford to feed so many soldiers. The war can still consume some soldiers and grab some food.

From the beginning of his fortune to the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao was walking on thin ice every time he fought, for fear of running out of food. As a result, he still achieved many victories despite this situation. As a result, in the Battle of Guandu, this guy may have never been so rich in his life.

The battle suddenly disappeared and the result was a disastrous defeat.

Although Cao Cao firmly believes that wealth and money are not the decisive factors in determining victory. Although Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are powerful, they are far less wise than himself. In the end, he will definitely be able to grow up and fight them, and win them.

But in the face of Yuan Shu's behavior of prodigal everywhere, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel very unhappy. A well-fed man doesn't know how hungry a man is! How good you can give me so much money and food. He is such a prodigal, and I don't know what happened to the Yuan family.

He was educated. If I had such a son, I would definitely beat him to death.

Cao Cao was right. After Yuan Feng, who was hiding in the dark, learned of Yuan Shu's behavior, he was so angry that he almost passed out. He cursed angrily every day: "You traitor!"

Yuan Feng can barely tolerate being a prodigal, so why are you enfeoffing him? If you do this, won't the Yuan family's interests be diluted?

If Yuan Shu found out about Cao Cao's sentiments, he would definitely spit on Cao Cao's face. Are money and food saved? They are wasted! I am not so extravagant for enjoyment, but to hide wealth among the people and circulate wealth.

That’s right, that’s it!

Yuan Shu hypnotized himself like this every time, never admitting his selfishness.

In fact, this is indeed the case. Not only did Yuan Shu not lose money during this tour, he actually made a lot of money. He was a living sign, and he promoted it wherever he went. Whether it was the four-wheeled carriage, or the sofas and tea leaves made by Yuan Shu.

, mahjong, etc., have become luxuries that the upper class in Jingzhou are crazy about pursuing.

The words follow the example. The things played by Yuan Shu, recognized as the world's number one dandy, are definitely the best of the best, and they are also a symbol of status. Not only the dandies of various aristocratic families, but also the heads of families such as Kuai Liang and Cai Mao are fascinated by them.

No way, anyone who has ridden in a spacious and luxurious carriage with shock absorbers will not be able to stand the original carriage. Anyone who has drank tea will not be able to stand the beef and mutton steamed buns with onion, ginger and other condiments.

Oh no, tea.

After a tour, countless orders flew into the hands of Cai again, and Yuan Shu made a fortune again. Not only that, Yuan Shu also promoted pork, which was only eaten by the poor in this era, by inviting wealthy gentry from various places.

After being prepared by a chef specially trained by Yuan Shu, the aristocratic families in Jingzhou were satisfied with their food. When they found out later that it was pork, they were all shocked. Next, Yuan Shu removed the fishy smell from the gelding pigs and the benefits of raising pigs in captivity.

, and the methods of making these dishes spread.

There is no way, there are really too few pigs in this era, and most people raise cattle and sheep. Pork is called cheap food, and only the poor eat it. Yuan Shuke knows that raising pigs is much more cost-effective than raising sheep,

Even if pork is not as good as beef and mutton, it is still meat! And there is nothing bad about pork, so Yuan Shu took it upon himself to promote it from top to bottom to change people's prejudice against pork.
