Abnormal Three Kingdoms

Chapter 9 New Ways
"My lord, what are these utensils used for?" The steward had ordered people to send those utensils into the warehouse, and came to Chu Nan to ask.

"Salt making." Chu Nan didn't hide anything, and he might have to take care of these things in the future.

"Salt?" The steward looked at Chu Nan unexpectedly. The sale of salt and iron has always been controlled by the imperial court. Although the imperial court's decree cannot reach Xuzhou now, within the territory of Xuzhou, this thing is also managed by the government office. It does not have a certain relationship. Really unable to do it, he hesitated and said: "My lord, although this salt is a good deal, if there is no relationship with the government office, it may be difficult to make it."

Chu Nan's eyes fell on the steward.

Air Luck 89 (30 can be withdrawn)

Chu Nan narrowed his eyes slightly. After meeting so many people, this is the only one who can extract his luck. Although he can't extract all of it, part of it is enough.

extract!

Chu Nan subconsciously chose to extract, and his luck instantly changed from 106 to 136.

Because the other party is living on their own?
Chu Nan made a note of this possibility, then looked at Chu Rong with a smile and said, "Today, I just received the post of Jincao. These utensils are still in storage, and they will come in handy soon."

Originally, I wanted to get through the relationship with the Mi family, but it is obviously impossible now. Now that I have the position of Jincao, I don’t have to worry about it. Jincao is in charge of the salt and iron trade. He can start making refined salt, which is one of the few useful knowledge he brought from his previous life.

If he mixes gunpowder, it will not work out, and it may not be very useful in this era. You must know that the power of gunpowder in the early stage is not very powerful, but refined salt is fine.

"Son, you..." Chu Rong looked at Chu Nan with some surprise. As a servant of the Chu family since the time of Chu Nan's father, he naturally hoped to see the Chu family flourish. Although Jin Cao is just a Li Cao, He doesn't even count as an official, but this is considered half a foot in the official career, not to mention that Jin Cao is still a Lie Cao who holds some real power.

Regardless of how much money Chu Nan can make, he is only a merchant after all. No matter how much money he has, let alone the current world, even in the peaceful and prosperous times, it is a matter of a word for the government office to deal with him. Now that Chu Nan has entered the officialdom, he is in many In people's hearts, this position is different.

After a moment of surprise, he hurriedly said, "Congratulations, young master."

"It should be congratulations." Chu Nan felt a little helpless in his heart. He didn't know when it would sink when he boarded Lu Bu's boat. Strictly speaking, this matter is really not a happy event. just do.

"Uncle Rong, go and call the servants at home. I'll explain something." Chu Nan thought for a while, wondering if his guess was correct.

"Let's go now." After knowing that Chu Nan was an official, Chu Rong was obviously in a good mood, agreed, turned and left, and after a while, he summoned the six servants at home.

It is better to say that they are servants than hired workers. The Chu family is a family of merchants, and the generation of Chu Nan has declined. Therefore, after the death of Chu Nan’s parents, Chu Nan dismissed unnecessary maidservants and unusable servants in order to save money. Yes, those who stay are able to work, and now Chu Nan agrees with this approach after taking over.

After all, there are not many resources in hand now. If you don't want to sit and eat, you have to spend your money wisely. Therefore, although the Chu family is big, except for Chu Rong who is in charge of the affairs, the other six in the family are all able to work.

Chu Nan looked at the six people, and there were high and low fates, the high ones were five or six points, and the low ones were only two or three points, but they could more or less extract some luck.

These people are members of the Chu family, and they depend on Chu Nan for their lives. They are connected by luck. To a certain extent, Chu Nan can control their fate.

After thinking about this, Chu Nan felt a little happy, not only because he got so much luck, but more importantly, he finally understood where the luck that was added after Lu Bu's luck came from.

He is the lord of Xuzhou now, and he is connected to thousands of people's lives. The luck of these people is naturally connected with him, and can also provide him with majestic luck. Therefore, although Lu Bu's fate is only more than 70, he can have such a huge fortune. Luck also makes sense.

If I enter the officialdom, if I am lucky enough to be in charge of the people's livelihood, will I also be able to obtain such a huge amount of luck?
Although he didn't really want to defect to Lu Bu, this incident did open a new door for himself.

This kind of favor is a bit big!
Thinking of this question, Chu Nan felt a little helpless. He didn't think he had the ability to reverse Lu Bu's fate, but since he owed favors, he would naturally have to pay them back. In the end, he could only sigh helplessly. This matter could only be one step ahead Look one step further.

"Everyone, I have been running around with me in the past three months, and I have done a lot of dirty work. Now I am lucky enough to be appreciated by the court, and I have found a job as a cao. The family is also considered to be more prosperous. In the past few days, everyone Rest for a day, and then each of you will go to Uncle Rong to collect a hundred dollars, which is my thanks to everyone for the past three months." Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Chu Nan put aside the thoughts in his heart and said to them with a smile.

No matter what, I have taken a step forward in this world this time. The future fortune and misfortune are still unknown. Even if these people around me are not very capable people, they have to win over them, at least with ease.

"Congratulations, Patriarch, thank you for the reward!" The six of them were overjoyed when they heard the words. They helped Chu Nan with their work, and Chu Nan was paid for it, which was a matter of course. To them, it was quite a lot, but it was nearly a month's wages, so they were naturally overjoyed, and at the same time, their recognition of Chu Nan was naturally higher.

Chu Nan found that after making this decision, everyone could extract a little more Luck, from three to five points less, to seven or eight points more.

After making this discovery, Chu Nan's understanding of luck has increased, and he didn't say any more at the moment. This luck may also be related to these people's recognition and gratitude for him.

After encouraging everyone, Chu Nan asked everyone to disperse.

"Uncle Rong, you also get two hundred dollars."

"My lord, I haven't done anything, but this money is useless."

"Sigh." Chu Nan shook his head and said, "If these six people are compared to soldiers in the army, Uncle Rong, you are the general of the three armies. How can you say that you haven't done anything. Now that your family is not rich, Uncle Rong is certainly not too small."

"This...thank you, young master." Chu Rong nodded and accepted Chu Nan's kindness without further words.

However, Chu Rong did not mention any extra luck. It is obviously not because Chu Rong's recognition is not enough, but his recognition has reached a limit, and it is impossible to greatly improve it because of this matter, but Chu Nan will not Therefore, I regret that Chu Rong has come to help him in the past three months, taking care of the housework, and others have rewarded him. If he didn't, it would be chilling.

At the moment when Chu Nan was separated from Chu Rong, his luck suddenly increased a lot, and his fate also increased. He has to try other uses of this luck...
