Chapter 440 What is it to spend a few more stinky money?
Chapter 440 What’s the point of spending a few extra dollars?
On the coast of the East China Sea, it belongs to the western Liaoning state.
Gongsun Kang, Yuan Shang, and Yuan Xi seemed very nervous...always paying attention to the movements of Cao Jun.
"Report...Cao's army has withdrawn and has withdrawn to Yecheng. They have no intention of our land in western Liaoning! Great joy, great joy!"
Several scouts hurried over and told Gongsun Kang the great news...
For a time, Gongsun Kang, Yuan Shang, and Yuan Xi all looked very excited.
The alarm that threatened them, the terrifying Cao Cao, was lifted...
It seems...it's time to have a banquet to celebrate.
Cao Cao used the actual situation to show Gongsun Kang that as long as you behave, I will not beat you.
Just as Yi Xiaotian reminded in his bag, Cao Cao retreated like this...
Sure enough, the shrewd Gongsun Kang had other ideas...
In fact, to put it simply, this is the trade-off and game between Cao Cao, the Yuan brothers and Gongsun Kang. Gongsun Kang is afraid not only of Cao Cao, but also of the two Yuan...
After all, Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi still have thousands of cavalry in their hands, and they are not vegetarians.
After all, the Yuan family has been in the north for many years, and their roots are intertwined. The four generations of the Yuan family and the three princes... disciples and former officials are all over the world. Gongsun Kang is not willing to repeat the tragedy of his uncle Gongsun Zan being beheaded.
"Gone, really gone?"
Gongsun Kang kept asking...as if making final confirmation!
"Reporting to the general, Cao's army has really withdrawn... leaving only a small number of troops stationed in Wuhuan, determined not to invade our western Liaoning territory."
The scout explained in detail.
Suddenly, the original deep light in Gongsun Kang's eyes suddenly became a little sharper.
Previously.
When Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi came to defect, Gongsun Kang realized that this would very likely lead to the death of tigers at the front door and wolves at the back door. However, due to the situation, he still generously took in the two Yuan.
But now the situation is different. After Cao Cao expressed his attitude and Cao Cao withdrew, Gongsun Kang felt relieved...
Er Yuan has no value anymore. Not only is he worthless, but he is a threat, a huge threat.
just in case…
The day they turn their backs on guests, the consequences will be dire.
In fact, this worry is not unreasonable, Yuan Shang does have such thoughts.
that's all……
In the seemingly calm land of Liaodong, undercurrents suddenly surged. The Yuan family and the Gongsun family, who had their own hidden agendas, were secretly planning a big game to eliminate each other.
…
…
"There are still a few days until we reach Youzhou."
Cao Cao's army retreated very quickly and could almost reach Yecheng before winter.
Along the way, he always asked Cao Ren next to him the same question...
What Cao Cao mentioned in his words was not the final destination Yecheng, but...Youzhou!
As for the reason, Brother Yi is still in Youzhou. It seems... he has been working on the wool processing factory for a year, right?
"Brother, we will arrive in Youzhou in half a month." Cao Ren replied...
"Have you done everything I asked you to do?" Cao Cao seemed to suddenly think of something and asked proactively...
Cao Ren thought for a moment and immediately thought of what the elder brother was referring to...
"It's all done!"
Cao Ren explained repeatedly. "Brother, don't worry. According to your instructions, our remaining troops will collect all the wool in Wuhuan and then send it to Youzhou and Brother Yi's wool processing factory..."
Hearing this...Cao Cao nodded heavily. "Well done..."
As he spoke, he touched the woolen sweater he was wearing and felt the temperature inside, "This woolen sweater is an artifact. In this increasingly cold winter, its role is no less than that of a hundred thousand soldiers!"
Huo…
Cao Ren was slightly shocked. The eldest brother dared to compare a hundred thousand soldiers. In fact, in the final analysis, they were just a small piece of clothing...
"Brother, you must be serious!" Cao Ren waved his hand, somewhat disbelieving.
"That's true?" Cao Cao pointed to the woolen sweater Cao Ren was wearing, "You are so blessed that you don't know how to be blessed... Just think about it, last year, the year before, the year before that... we didn't have this woolen sweater at that time.
, every time we fight in winter, not less than 30% of the soldiers will freeze to death, and more than 30% of the soldiers will suffer from frostbite... What about this time? Let me ask you, during the one and a half year campaign against Wuhuan, did any of our brothers fall ill due to the cold wind?
Frozen? Is there anyone who got sick from the freezing cold?"
call out…
When Cao Cao said this, Cao Ren really came back to his senses.
Speaking of which, Liaodong is much colder than the Central Plains, but... thousands of tigers and leopards are stunned, not a single one has frostbite or frostbite... The cold-removing jiaoer soup and dumplings of the Medical Department certainly contributed, but it seems that... they can't be wiped out.
Destroy the effect of this woolen sweater!
Hey... Put it this way, this woolen sweater is really worth a hundred thousand soldiers.
"oh…"
Suddenly, it became clear to Cao Ren. "Brother, I finally know why you accepted all Wuhuan's wool and gave it to Brother Yi. I'm sorry... is it because Brother Yi wants to buy Brother Yi's sweaters in large quantities?"
"
"Ha ha ha ha…"
After being pointed out by Cao Ren, Cao Cao stroked his beard and laughed. Not only did he not mind, but he was very happy.
etc…
Cao Ren seemed to suddenly think of something, and he hurriedly asked.
"Brother, Brother Yi's wool doesn't cost a penny, and the price for hiring female workers is also very low... If so... isn't the cost of Brother Yi's woolen sweater very low? Why would Brother Yi give such a high price?
?A woolen sweater...is ten times more expensive than silk!"
There is nothing wrong with what Cao Ren said...
Cao Cao personally set the price for the sweater. In fact, he didn't know it. He just compared it with the best cotton, silk, silk... and added several times the price.
It seems...it's really a bit more than the cost.
but…
"What's this?" Cao Cao waved his hand. "Brother Yi helped us pacify Wuhuan. I can't think of anything to reward him. All I have left is this wool and this high purchase price... As long as Brother Yi is happy
, It’s nothing to spend a few more stinky money! Even if our military budget is tight here, we can still squeeze it out!”
Let’s talk about it here.
Hahaha...Cao Cao smiled lightly and spoke with great meaning.
"Zixiao, we want to fight for world hegemony. Brother Yi never skimps on tips and tricks. Brother Yi loves money and wants to be as rich as the enemy. Why don't I, Cao Cao, help him? Hahaha..."
In a word, Cao Cao's eyes raised...
He turned back to look towards Liaodong and Liaoxi, then turned around and looked at Youzhou not far ahead.
For a moment, I was very much looking forward to the situation in western Liaoning and... to visiting Brother Yi's current wool processing factory...
Is it time for the remnants of the Yuan family to have a fight with Gongsun Kang?
Brother Yi's wool processing factory...how far has it grown in one and a half years?
