Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 285 Big Dog, Kill It!

Although Xiahou Dun was worried about Cao Cao's situation, Lu Yan's attitude finally made him temporarily compromise.

"What does this little pressure mean to Boss Cao?"

Lu Yan knew how difficult it was for Boss Cao to start a business in the middle and early stages of official history, and these difficulties are now a piece of cake for Cao Cao.

So people, if you don’t force yourself, you will never know how tough you are.
Outside Pengcheng, Lu Yan observed the situation of Pengcheng with binoculars behind a hidden hillside quite far away.

Xiahou Dun was very curious, why did Lu Yan always point the long barrel at the enemy?

Moreover, they are still far away from the enemy army, and people look like black spots, so how can they observe the enemy's situation?

After hesitating for a long time, Xiahou Dun finally came to Lu Yan's side driven by curiosity, and asked, "Well, Changsheng, what is the use of this thing in your hand?"

Lu Yan put down the binoculars, glanced at Xiahoudun, and replied calmly: "It's for observing the enemy's situation."

"How does this thing observe the enemy's situation???" Xiahou Dun's head was full of black question marks, and he really couldn't imagine how this iron rod could observe the enemy's situation?
Lu Yan was not petty either. He handed the binoculars to Xiahou Dun and said, "It's called a binoculars. You point the big head at the distance, and the small head at your own eyes."

Xiahou Dun took the binoculars suspiciously, and then did as Lu Yan asked.

"Aww!!!" As soon as he put it in front of his eyes, Xia Houdun immediately sat down on the ground in fright, and couldn't help but groaned, waving his hand and about to throw the telescope out.

Lu Yan didn't stop Xiahou Dun's actions, but just said teasingly: "A telescope is worth ten thousand gold, you can throw it out and have a try."

"Ah!?" Xiahou Dun suddenly withdrew the hand holding the telescope, and after realizing it, he hugged the telescope firmly in his arms.

"I am immortal. I just saw those people." Xiahou Dun stuttered a little, because he didn't know how to describe the scene he just saw.

"Seeing those people seems to be much closer to you, isn't it?" Lu Yan explained for him.

"That's right! That's it!" Xiahou Dun nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, looking very funny.

Lu Yan replied: "With it, you can observe the enemy's situation at close range."

"And I can find the enemy first, and then arrange it calmly, waiting for the enemy to fall into the trap I planted!" Xiahou Dun took Lu Yan's words, and then played with the telescope, feeling a little bit fond of it.

"That's right!" Lu Yan nodded in agreement, then stretched out his palm and said, "Give it back to me."

Xiahou Dun turned a blind eye to Lu Yan's request to return the telescope, but asked Lu Yan instead, "Uh Changsheng, how much of this do you have?"

Seeing Xiahoudun like this, he wanted to ask for it.

"The workshop tried its best to make two." Lu Yan said, barely maintaining a calm expression on his face.

Xiahoudun also knew the scale of Chenliu's workshop, and he asked a little bit dumbfounded: "No way? Is this thing really so precious?"

"It's a treasure!" Lu Yan nodded seriously.

"You just said. There are two?"

"The other one is for Mr. Cao."

Lu Yan's words made Xia Houdun's bright eyes gradually dimmed, "Oh, such a precious thing, what a pity!"

"What a pity? If you want it, you can go back to the workshop and recreate it." Lu Yan's attitude suddenly changed drastically.

"Really?" Xiahou Dun was aroused by Lu Yan, and asked with bright eyes: "When will it be recreated?"

"That's it." The corner of Lu Yan's mouth curled up slightly, and he thought to himself, "I'm hooked! It's time to kill the dog again!"

"The workshop is short of manpower. If you want to make another one, it will be very difficult if you don't have it for a year and a half!"

"Is there still a shortage of people?" Xia Houdun was stunned and asked, "Then keep recruiting!"

"I don't have any money, I'm living a life. Don't say anything!" Lu Yan shook his head and sighed.

"Lack of people, lack of money?" Xia Houdun suddenly realized, patted his chest proudly and said: "It's easy to say, many of the servants in a certain family are craftsmen, I will send you 1000 servants, and then subsidize the expansion of the workshop by [-] gold. how do you feel?"

"Boss is big!" Lu Yan gave a thumbs up, praised, and then suddenly remembered something, and said, "Oh, by the way, if Miaocai, Zixiao, and Zilian want it, they can also book in advance. Just like yours."

Lu Yan knew that Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Cao Ren and others were all related to the chamber of commerce. After all, the current president of the chamber of commerce was Cao Hong. If they didn't join in, Lu Yan would find it strange.

Cao Hong has made a lot of money these years, and these brothers are naturally rich as well.

Killing them, Lu Yan did not have the slightest psychological burden.
"Okay!" Xiahoudun smiled cheerfully and asked, "But let's talk about it first. The first telescope built later must belong to me!"

Lu Yan patted his chest and said, "It should be so!"

Inadvertently won a few more big orders, Lu Yan was very happy in his heart.

But after calming down from the joy, Lu Yan said to Xiahou Dun again: "Yuan Rang, there is something you must remember."

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Lu Yan's face was extremely solemn, Xiahou Dun also put away his smile and asked.

"The telescope must not fall into the hands of the enemy!"

Xiahou Dun lowered his head, looked into the binoculars, and said, "Don't worry about Changsheng, the mirror exists when people are alive, and the mirror is destroyed when people die!"

"En." Lu Yan nodded, took back the telescope from Xiahou Dun, and continued to observe the situation under Pengcheng.

"Should I say Peng Cheng is strong or Chen Deng is awesome? I really didn't expect that he could hold on for such a long time."

Lu Yan was thinking about the strategy to defeat the enemy, suffering from too few soldiers in his hands, and felt that a clever woman could not cook without rice.

At this time, Xun You, the military adviser who had been watching silently by the side, seemed to have a weak sense of presence.

After he glanced at Xiahou Dun who seemed to have the four characters "I was slaughtered" engraved on his forehead, he cupped his hands and said to Lu Yan: "Lu Hussar, I think that if our army can contact Chen Deng, Let’s cooperate from the inside and the outside, maybe there will be some chances to defeat the enemy.”

"But how can I get in touch with Chen Deng?"

"Tomorrow, let's charge for a while and tell Chen Deng that we have troops outside. With his wisdom, he should be able to see our intentions."

Lu Yan frowned lightly, thinking it was a good idea, "Okay, then I'll listen to you."

After finishing speaking, Lu Yan suddenly asked Xun You: "Gongda, are you interested in telescopes?"

The corner of Xun You's mouth twitched, and he thought, "Do I look like a fool like Xiahou Dun?"

"I'm sorry, all the money in You's family has been used to buy books."

Lu Yan nodded, expressing his understanding, but thought:
"I'll get some literati coquettish things when I go back, and see if you guys will be fooled!"
