Shuhan

Chapter 183 Drive away wolves and sow discord!
Jingzhou.

Nanyang County.

In the lobby of Wancheng government office.

Liu Chan sat on the main seat, and under it, all the generals and advisers knelt down one by one.

Xu Shu, Fei Yi, Dong Yun, Guan Xing, Zhang Bao, Pang De, A Huinan
Among the civil servants and generals, there is an envoy dressed in brocade clothes standing at the moment.

"General Yangwei Zang Ba sent you here?"

Liu Chan was on the main seat, expressionless, just looking at the expressions of the envoys under the hall.

"It is my lord."

In front of everyone, he was not timid at all, he just smiled and said: "My lord sent me here to discuss the business alliance. If you want to do business in the Wei country, the business alliance will get [-]% of the income!"

Seven or three open?

In the hall, Ah Hui could not sit still.

"Why is it only [-]%?"

He snorted coldly, and said: "This business alliance is led by His Highness, you are just paying for the road, [-]% is too much!"

The messenger smiled and said, "It's not [-]%, but [-]%!"

Seventy percent?

A Huinan immediately stood up.

"This fucking [-]%?"

The envoy Zang Ba nodded and said: "Although it is to buy road money, the business alliance can do business in Wei State entirely because of my lord. If there is no endorsement from him behind, can you wait for the business alliance merchants to enter Wei State? If the Lord bears such a risk, of course my Lord will account for [-]% of Wei's business trip!"

"impossible!"

Ah Hui snorted coldly, he knew the benefits of this business alliance.

Seventy percent?

Then Zang Ba doesn't want to eat his mouth full of oil?
They fiddled with life and death, but they could only drink soup?
"I'm afraid it's not the general who is in charge here?"

Envoy Zang Ba turned his head to look at Liu Chan, bowed his hands in salute, and said slowly: "Only with such a share, my lord is willing to cooperate with His Highness. If not, my lord will not earn the money."

Liu Chan's expression was very calm.

"It's not impossible to open seven or three times, but"

Liu Chan took a deep look at the messenger and said, "Maybe the goods I want will be delivered?"

It doesn't matter if you are doing business in Wei State, you can make money or not.

The main reason is to be able to separate Cao Pi and Zang Ba, causing civil strife in Wei.

Second.

It is to get what Liu Chan wants through Wei Guo's business.

For example, military supplies such as war horses, ironware, beef tendon, grain and grass.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, with my general's endorsement, all important items such as horses, food and grass can be delivered."

Zang Ba's cooperation with Liu Chan is undoubtedly smuggling and betraying the country.

However.
This country of Wei is not owned by him. If he has money but doesn't make money, isn't that stupid?
"Since it's going to be opened seven or three times, after entering the Wei Kingdom, your master will be responsible for the caravan guards. If there is any loss, it will also be credited to your master."

It's going to be seventy-three, right?

you can!

Bring me everything I want.

You are also responsible for the caravan guard. If there is any loss, it is because of your disadvantage, and I, Liu Gongsi, will not take the blame.

"This"

There was hesitation in the messenger's eyes, but after a while, he still nodded.

"This request, I can still make the decision."

"very good."

The smile on Liu Chan's face was finally revealed.

"This month, ten caravans will enter the Wei Kingdom, transporting Shu Brocade, Shu Salt, Porcelain, and Glaze. These ten caravans will bring back five hundred carts of grain and grass."

A caravan of fifty cars is not too big, but it is definitely not too small.

Moreover, the things that Liu Chan transported, whether it was Shu brocade, Shu salt, porcelain, or colored glaze, were all high value-added products, and the profits they could get were enough to make Zang Ba eat a lot.

Ten caravans?

Five hundred carts of grain and grass?
The Crown Prince of Hanzhong acted vigorously and resolutely.

Not just talk, but direct action.

"I do know about the Shu Brocade and Shu Salt. Isn't this porcelain pottery? There is no shortage of it in the Wei Kingdom. There is no huge profit when trading here. Why did you choose this thing?"

Liu Chan smiled lightly and said, "My porcelain is neither earthenware nor lacquerware. Your Excellency will know the difference once you look at it."

clap~
Liu Chan clapped his hands, and immediately a waiter stepped forward and entered with a bottle of amphora.

"what?"

Zang Ba's envoy's eyes showed astonishment.

"This artifact is so beautiful."

In this era, the craftsmanship of porcelain was extremely rough, and the carcass was hard. There were only two kinds of celadon and black porcelain, which were relatively monotonous.

But at this moment, the porcelain in the hands of the waiter is green and verdant, the glaze is smooth and pleasing to the eye, and the shape is beautiful.

There are also flowers and trees engraved on it, Zang Ba's envoy saw it, and couldn't put it down.

"I don't know how much this porcelain can be sold after Wei Guo."

The envoy estimated one or two in his heart, and said, "Compared with ordinary lacquerware and porcelain, it is ten times more expensive, oh no, more than fifty times!"

Even in the troubled times, Wei Guo did not lack rich people.

This porcelain is so beautiful that even in Luoyang and Yecheng, there is no shortage of nobles to buy it.

"How much is the daily output of this porcelain? This product can be used for long-term business."

The envoy's reaction was within Liu Chan's expectations.

"The output is not much now, and it can supply a caravan for a month."

The output is so low?
A look of pity appeared on the messenger's face.

"However. If Wei Guo's business route is opened up, I might as well send more people to produce this product."

Seeing that there was still room for tact, the envoy Zang Ba nodded heavily, and said: "The nobles of the Wei State will love this product. This porcelain will not be short of sales in the Wei State. As much as there is, we will produce as much."

clap clap~
Liu Chan clapped his hands a few more times, and another row of waiters came forward with a group of glazed objects.

Bead lamps, bead screens, chess pieces, tent hooks, pillow tops, etc. dazzled Zang Ba's envoy.

"These objects are colorful and beautiful; the quality is crystal clear and dazzling, how can colored glaze make these objects?"

If it is said that the nobles of the state of Wei would like the porcelain in front, then they would love this colored glaze object!
Liuli is more precious than jade, such a beautiful thing, Zang Ba's envoy can already imagine that if this thing is sold to Wei State, it will look like the nobles will look after it.

"This thing can also be mass-produced?"

Liu Chan shook his head and said, "The colored glaze must be mass-produced. I found the colored glaze mine, and then the artisans sculpt these objects, and the output is extremely limited."

Glass mine?
"It's a pity. If it is mass-produced, the caravan will only sell this item, and it will make huge profits."

Hearing this, Liu Chan didn't take it seriously.

Things are rare.

When this glazed object is everywhere, it is worthless.

The so-called colored glaze is just glass.

For glazed glass, stone is used as a substance, nitrate is used to blend it, reefs are used to forge it, and copper, iron, and lead are used to transform it.It can't be made without stone, it can't be done without nitrate, it can't be refined without copper, iron, red lead, and it will be born after three combinations.

Although Liu Chan doesn't know how to make glass, he still has a general knowledge.

Moreover, in the Han Dynasty, the method of making glass had already appeared, but the glass produced was not good-looking and not clear enough. Liu Chan used the knowledge of later generations to improve the method of making glass, and this was the product.

The same is true for porcelain.

Among other things, in his previous life, Liu Chan watched a lot of Jingdezhen documentaries, and he still knows how to make this porcelain.

Merchant and merchant.

Naturally, there must be something for businessmen.

Shu brocade is like this, and Shu salt is like this.

This is especially true for porcelain and colored glaze.

Using these low-cost items to exchange for Wei's war horses, military rations, and ironware can also drive Wei's monarchs and ministers apart, causing civil strife.

Even if it is opened seven or three times, he will definitely not lose money in this business!
of course
This first time in business was the running-in period between Liu Chan and Zang Ba.

So he didn't ask for those more sensitive items.

For example, war horses, horse breeds, armor, weapons, etc.

He wants food!

Presumably, after these ten caravans entered Wei State, the profits they gained would definitely make Zang Ba deeply involved.

Money is a bastard.

But money is loved by everyone.

Especially with the money that is like mountains of gold and silver, Liu Chan doesn't believe that Zang Ba, the leader of the army, can resist this temptation!

"How about these ten caravans, can your general eat them?"

Zang Ba's envoy smiled lightly and said, "Let's say it's ten, it's a hundred, it's not a problem."

Cao Pi is now mainly wooing the land of Qingxu.

No one is in charge of the camp, he dare not go to punish him, he is just a businessman, how dare he come to cut off the riches of the land of Qingxu?

"it is good."

Liu Chan took a deep look at the envoy, and then said: "If you want this merchant to last for a long time, I have a few words, and I want you to bring them to General Yangwei for me."

With a few words?

"Your Highness may wish to speak clearly."

Liu Chan didn't hide it anymore, and said straight to the point:

"Although your lord occupies the land of Qingxu, which makes Cao Pi fearful, but the land of Qingxu has been in the hands of the Cao family for more than 20 years, may your lord really control the land of the two prefectures?
On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore and sleep!
With Cao Pi's temperament, he will take the initiative against you sooner or later, and next year, he will use Jiangdong as an excuse to quell Jiangdong, and requisition your master. At that time, how will General Yangwei respond? "

how to respond?

The messenger fell silent.

The land of Qingxu is a domestic trouble in Wei.

After Cao Pi is firmly established as the king of Wei, he will definitely have to free up his hands to deal with it.

As a competitor, how could Liu Chan watch Wei's domestic troubles being put down?

Naturally, he wanted to block Cao Pi.

"Why does Your Highness teach my master?"

Zang Ba is willing to cooperate with Liu Chan, to a large extent, because of Liu Chan's ability.

He was able to take root in the land of youth, relying on his own vision!
During the Yellow Turban Uprising, Zang Ba was subordinate to Tao Qian.Later, Zang Ba collected troops in Xuzhou, and together with Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li, etc. gathered the army. Zang Ba was the commander-in-chief, stationed in the Kaiyang area, and became the overlord of his own side.

Later, he joined forces with Lu Bu and led troops to help Lu Bu. After Lu Bu was captured, Zang Ba knew the current affairs and recruited Wu Dun, Yin Li, Sun Guan, Sun Guan's brother Sun Kang, etc., and was reused by Cao Cao. he.

Zang Ba is a fool on the fence, he will fall to whichever side is stronger!
In less than half a year in Jingzhou, Liu Chan defeated all the heroes and took over the nine counties of Jingxiang. How could he not be surprised by such power?
Build a good relationship now, and if he really wins the world in the future, Zang Ba can be regarded as an early investment.

And the reason why the emissary asked this question was because Liu Chan's ingenuity had already become famous all over the world.

Such a fierce person, who can speak up for his master, must have a solution to the problem!
Liu Chan looked at the messenger's expression, smiled slightly, and said:

"I really have the method. In terms of general situation, you will not disobey Cao Pi, but don't lead your troops to leave Xuzhou; build high walls and accumulate food widely to wait for the right time.

Secretly, you can communicate with Jiangdong Sun Quan and lure him to attack Hefei. At that time, Cao Pi will definitely have something to ask for your master Yang Wei, and he dare not directly attack. "

"Your master is not the only one who is powerful in Qingxu Land, you can let them join the business alliance together and form an interest group. Once the power is strong, Cao Pi will not dare to do it. This is the way for you to survive."

After hearing Liu Chan's words, the emissary immediately bowed his hands and said sincerely: "Thank you for your advice, Your Highness. The villain will definitely tell my Lord face to face."

"very good."

If Zang Ba could listen to him, Cao Pi could not say that he had come to plot Nanyang.

It's hard to protect yourself!

"It's not too late, the villain will leave."

Regardless of whether it was about the business trip or what Liu Chan just said, after Zang Ba's envoy had heard it, he couldn't help but go to report to Zang Ba.

Maybe, because of this matter, the master of his family could really occupy the land of Qing Xu, like Sun Quan in Jiangdong, and become the overlord of one side!
After the envoy left, Ah Hui said immediately from the side: "Your Highness, opening every seven and three, is it too much? The business of Shu brocade, porcelain, and colored glaze is making a lot of money every day, and every seven and three openings are really cheap for them. "

Liu Chan looked at the way Ah Hui murmured his money, and said angrily: "I can't bear to bear children, I can't catch wolves, and mere petty profits, what is it? If you can take the land of the thirteen states into my hands, don't say seven Three splits, ninety-one splits, it's not uncommon!"

A few days ago, Ah Huinan learned about army logistics from him.

Know the importance of food and military resources.

After knowing the benefits of the business alliance, I couldn't stand it immediately.

But now after hearing Liu Chan's words, he doesn't argue anymore.

Anyway
As long as His Highness makes the decision, it must be right!
There must be a deep meaning, he Ah Hui just learn it.

"gentlemen."

Liu Chan fixed his eyes on Xu Shu.

"The ten noble families, have you found a handle?"

The matter of Zang Ba can stir up internal turmoil in Wei.

We will not be afraid of external worries for a short time.

This internal trouble, he, Liu Chan, must get rid of it.

The outside must be safe first!

He, the headmaster of the Martial Arts Hall, naturally wants to follow through to the end.

"The officials who were sent to measure the land and organize households were injured by the bandits, but even so, the land measured was far more than the amount reported by their ten families."

Assault and kill officials?

Liu Chan's eyes narrowed, and the murderous aura emanating from it, even a veteran in the hall, couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

"Assaulting and killing officials is an unforgivable crime!"

Liu Chan originally wanted to order to eradicate all ten noble families.

But he, Liu Gongsi, was kind-hearted and decided to give them another chance.

"Ten days later, the Shangmeng will distribute the dividends for the first time and show them the benefits. If these ten noble families still don't know how to die, then I, Liu Gongsi, can only give him a ride."

"Ten gentry families are indeed too many. If there are two or three families left, it will be easy to deal with."

Liu Chan just shook his head with a sneer, and said: "The ten noble families are not difficult to deal with, it just depends on who to choose to deal with."

Who is it?

Ah Hui got up immediately and said: "This matter, it will be fine in the end."

How could Ah Huinan refuse the opportunity to make meritorious service?
Zhang Bao and Guan Xing's people also stood up to fight.

"You have misunderstood me. The gentry in Nanyang is deeply rooted. To deal with the gentry, the gentry can only deal with it."

You have won the benefits of the business alliance and boarded my Liu Gongsi's pirate ship. It is time for you to work.

With the blood of my colleagues on my hands, I, Liu Gongsi, dare to use you!

The gentry in Nanyang is monolithic, how dare I, Liu Gongsi, use you and other gentry?
Drive away wolves and tigers, and use their strength to fight.

kill.
Sometimes you don't need to do it yourself.
