Chapter 28 People Lighting Wax, Ghosts Blowing Lamps
Chapter 28: People light wax, ghosts blow out lamps
There is no capital and no profit, but there is a way to make money.
Cao Cao was immediately moved. There was nothing to be afraid of if he lost a little. As long as his pockets were filled with money, Cao Cao could do anything no matter how much he lost.
"Brother Yi, stop being so secretive and tell me quickly! So that I can offer advice to Cao Cao. This is another great achievement."
hehe…
Yi Xiaotian spread his hands...
It is a merit, but it is a merit that damages one's moral character.
At this time, Yi Xiaotian stood up, turned his back to Cao Cao and the other three, and whispered four mantras in his mouth.
"Send the seal of the mound, touch the golden talisman, and move mountains and mountains to find the dragon's secret."
"People light wax, ghosts blow out lamps, and explorers fight to find the stars."
"There are countless mercury vessels, utensils for nourishing the light, and dragon towers and treasure halls."
"The sunken coffin, the bronze coffin, don't come near it until it's hard."
After saying this, Yi Xiaotian shook his head and waved his hands, his expression was very complicated, as if he had revealed a secret.
"Brother Hide, I can't tell you the specific strategy, but you only need to offer these four sentences. If Cao Cao can understand the meaning, he will naturally make money!"
Speaking of this, Yi Xiaotian took a step aside...
"Brother Hide, you taste it first, taste it carefully, and let me take a nap..."
While talking, Yi Xiaotian walked out of the wine shop...
call out…
At this time, Cao Cao, Cao Song, and Cao Ren looked at each other.
Without exception, I am pondering these four formulas proposed by Yi Xiaotian...
Touching for gold? Moving mountains and unloading ridges? Inverting buckets? Coffins? Coffins?
This series of words related to "tomb" came into Cao Cao's mind, and in an instant, Cao Cao understood...
Yi Xiaotian is reminding Cao Cao to rob the tomb.
Hey... tomb robbing?
Cao Cao took a deep breath...
It's scary, it's a bit scary, there's a bit of loss, and there are risks, but...it seems like a quick and easy way to make money?
He thought about it carefully. Whether it was the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the conflict between Chu and Han, or the Han Dynasty, whenever a powerful person was buried, a large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, utensils, and even slaves would be buried with him.
And these are related to ghosts and gods. For hundreds of years, few people dared to get involved.
If others don't dare to get involved, that's an opportunity; others are afraid of ghosts and gods, but Cao Cao is not. Others don't dare to rob tombs, but it doesn't mean that Cao Cao doesn't dare. These gold objects and jewelry are hidden in the tombs. With a little effort, you can dig them out for nothing.
.
The more he thought about it, the more enlightened Cao Cao became...
Tomb robbing, fighting, making wealth out of thin air...
…Wonderful, wonderful.
At this moment, Cao Song and Cao Ren seemed to have come to their senses.
"Meng De? What do you think? Is it disrespectful to ghosts and gods?" Cao Ren couldn't help but ask.
"Are there any ghosts and gods in this world?" Cao Cao waved his hand, seeming to be dismissive of ghosts and gods. "Even if there are ghosts and gods, as long as there is something that I, Cao Cao, want to do, they must get out of the way."
"However, if word spreads, it will be detrimental to his reputation after all." Cao Ren was still worried. Subconsciously, he was unwilling to provoke these gods and ghosts!
"How can we achieve great things if we always look forward and backward?" Cao Cao's tone became more determined...
Cao Song nodded.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with making money from dead people."
"Meng De is right. Anyone who does big things can't care about the minutiae."
"What's more, these are troubled times. The princes from all walks of life are competing for territory, soldiers and horses, money and food. The reputation of being a mere tomb robber is irrelevant!"
Speaking of this, Cao Song slowly looked in the direction where Yi Xiaotian left.
"Before, Meng De always said that Yi Xiaotian was a unique man. Although I am grateful for his life-saving grace, I don't believe in a wine shop owner? How can it be so strange? Today, I see that he is indeed worthy of this."
Strange word. What’s more, these are troubled times, and we need to use justice and victory with surprise. Mengde, you have to thank God for sending you such a strange person!"
Cao Song continued to praise Yi Xiaotian...
It is enough and quite positive for Yi Xiaotian to propose tomb robbing.
When Cao Cao heard this, he laughed "haha".
"Father, my son is filial. This tomb robbing and fighting is a huge fortune. This will not only solve our Yanzhou's dilemma of lack of money and food. If we specially set up a team of gold-touching captains to specialize in tomb robbing,
, it will definitely bring a steady stream of wealth to the three armies..."
Cao Cao was very happy and excited...
No wonder he was so excited.
This tomb robbery, at a small scale, is just to make some money; at a big scale, it is related to the military, the governance of the state and county, and even more to Cao Cao's future hegemony.
Tread...
The sound of footsteps behind him gradually sounded, and Yi Xiaotian was back.
"Brother Hiding? What are you talking about? Are you so excited?"
"Ha ha…"
Cao Cao stood up and welcomed Yi Xiaotian to his seat.
"I just discussed it with my uncle again, and I feel that the price of one hundred and fifty gold for the armored horse is still too low."
Cao Cao waved his hand and looked very heroic. "I only calculated the cost before, but I didn't consider that Brother Yi must have spent a lot of time designing these drawings! Let's see, this time the price is 200 gold per set. It's still the same.
I want as much as I want, and I will send someone to deliver the deposit to Brother Yi tomorrow."
ah…
Yi Xiaotian was stunned.
What's going on? The cost of this thing is only 20 gold, I just went to a hut, and you gave me an increase?
Even though it is said that there is no business without treachery, Yi Xiaotian always feels that something is wrong.
He couldn't bear it. Cai Zhaoji was right, even if you were robbing wool, you couldn't just catch a sheep and stroke it. This was a bit inhumane!
Yi Xiaotian looked at Cao Song, who couldn't help but want to lower the price.
Cao Song had a beard.
"Ah Hao is right, two hundred gold is not much, not much. I was negligent before and did not consider my little brother's hard work. I should be punished!"
While talking, Cao Song drank a full bowl of wine as a self-punishment.
I go…
Yi Xiaotian felt that the world had changed.
The arms dealer who is known as the most treacherous will take the initiative to give up his profits. Is this because people are kind-hearted?
"Since uncle said so? Then...then I will accept it?" Yi Xiaotian replied...
Hahaha…
Cao Cao, Cao Ren, and Cao Song all laughed.
Yi Xiaotian sat down again.
This time, Cao Cao and the three of them had a tacit agreement not to mention the tomb robbery or rebellion. After all, it was a matter of Yin De.
And they could also see that Yi Xiaotian seemed to be hesitant about this and had some scruples.
In fact, Yi Xiaotian is still very timid.
Before time travel, I could read "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and have nightmares all night long. Now he instigates others to fight upside down, but don't let Queen Jingjue come to chat with him in the middle of the night. That will attract too many people!
Just click and it will be good. Just click and it will be good.
Another drink…
I drank the first jar of Jiu Niang Spring Wine completely...
Cao Cao seemed to suddenly think of something. "I almost forgot about business." Cao Cao hurriedly ordered, "Brother Ren, go and invite those craftsmen in quickly!"
"Craftsman?" Yi Xiaotian asked subconsciously.
"Yes, haha, they are craftsmen. They are the surprise I brought to Brother Yi." Cao Cao explained repeatedly. "These are the craftsmen used by the late emperor to build Dongxi Tongguiyuan. It took me a long time to invite them to Yanzhou.
A lot of effort?"
Well…
Why hire a craftsman? Is it possible that my brother also likes to garden?
Yi Xiaotian reminded.
"Hide it, brother? In these troubled times, it is not suitable for large-scale construction projects."
"Hahaha..." Cao Cao laughed. He looked at his father, Cao Song, and then at Yi Xiaotian. "Yes, it is not appropriate to carry out large-scale construction in these troubled times, but doesn't Brother Yi want to repair the wine shop? By the way, there is also Yi Xiaotian.
The ten-mile peach forest that my brother has longed for?"
Well…
Yi Xiaotian finally figured it out and realized that these craftsmen were hired by his brother to build the forest for him.
"Brother Hide, you are too polite." Yi Xiaotian felt a little embarrassed.
"How polite is this?" Cao Cao waved his hands repeatedly, "The so-called willingness to admit defeat, news came from Chang'an City half a month ago. Li Jue and Guo Si really started fighting. The entire Xiliang warlords were in chaos, and the culprit was
, just like Brother Yi said...a woman...hahahaha."
Let’s talk about this.
Cao Cao suddenly wanted to laugh. The Xiliang warlord turned a game of Tianhu's chess into a piece of chicken feathers...
He suppressed his laughter.
"Li Jue and Guo Si both have good wives. If it weren't for these two wives, the Xiliang warlords would be monolithic, which would be a real crisis for our Yanzhou! Now it's better, Yanzhou is very peaceful, even if I, Ah Man, make this bet
Even if I lose, I’m happy too, very happy.”
Yo?
Li Jue and Guo Si really fought? Just like historical records, it was because of women!
hey-hey…
Yi Xiaotian couldn't help but have thoughts in his mind.
Sure enough, no matter how strong a brother is, he can't resist the alienation from the pillow wind...
It is very difficult for a man to conquer the world. If a woman wants to defeat the world, she is simply gifted and can easily capture it.
Sure enough, Confucius was right, in this world, only women and villains are difficult to raise.
