Three Kingdoms: Liu Bei seeks the master and seeks to conquer the world

Chapter 193 Attracting Investment and Investment, Zheng Ping and Mi Zhu discuss the situation

Cao Song was suspicious: "Liu Qingzhou wants to welcome the emperor into Qingzhou?"

Although Liu Bei is the shepherd of Qingzhou, Cao Song doesn't think Dong Zhuo can be defeated.

At the beginning, he was unwilling to support Cao Cao because he didn't want to lose all the money he had accumulated through hard work and greed because of Cao Cao's pursuit of Dong's name.

Cao Song is sober in the world, and if he wants to satisfy his addiction to being an official, he just needs to spend money to experience it.

Loyalty?Kuangfu Han Dynasty?
Only fools take it seriously!
In the past, I didn't believe that Cao Cao had the ability to fix the Han Dynasty, and now I also don't believe that Liu Bei has the ability to fix the Han Dynasty.

Subconsciously, Cao Song guessed that Zheng Ping and Cao Cao had the same purpose in the past.

It's for my own money!
As soon as Cao Song's small eyes moved, Zheng Ping had already guessed Cao Song's state of mind at this time.

If you want to cheat Cao Song's money, you can't do it without some hard goods.

Zheng Ping nodded and said: "Your envoy does have this idea, that's why he chose a site to build a new city."

"I don't know if the old lady has ever heard the rumors that Liu Shijun of Qingzhou secretly hid the Jade Seal of Chuanguo?"

Cao Song was taken aback, and his eyes became more suspicious: "Could it be that the Chuanguo Yuxi is really in the hands of Liu Shijun?"

Zheng Ping shook the feather fan lightly, and his tone became a little more "dignified": "Naturally it is true!"

"In the old days, with the support of the envoy, Uncle Gan joined Yuan Shu to attack Dong Zhuo, and Yuan Shu's general Sun Jian obtained the Jade Seal of Chuanguo in Luoyang City."

"This Jade Seal of Chuanguo was originally the destiny. The destiny let Sun Jian, who was begging for Dong, get the Jade Seal of Chuanguo. The purpose was for Sun Jian to use the Jade Seal of Chuanguo as a name to attract Chang'an soldiers and civilians to rebel against Dong, and then kill the country's thieves, so as to return our Han family to a bright future."

"However, Sun Jian gave the Jade Seal of the Nation to Yuan Shu. After Yuan Shu got the Jade Seal of the Nation, he became even more proud and conceited. He even used the Jade Seal of the Nation without authorization to distribute the Heishan bandits. Such a perverse move naturally aroused the wrath of the sky."

"That's why Shijun defeated Yuan Shu in Fengqiu City, and got this Jade Seal."

"The Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom is ordered by the heavens. The envoy who has the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom in his hand will definitely be able to win Dong Chenggong and welcome the emperor back to the east. This is the real reason why the envoy wants to build Guanggu City."

Zheng Ping has a destiny and a wrath of the sky, and he is serious about it.

Cao Song was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help thinking about the trade-offs secretly.

a long time.

Cao Song frowned and said, "I heard that Liu Shijun and Lu Shangshu have turned against each other. I don't know if it's true or not?"

Zheng Ping laughed loudly: "Old Grandpa, this is just a trick to make Jun and Uncle Zigan both bright and dark, and use it to deal with Dong Zhuo."

"If it weren't for this, how could the envoy firmly believe that he can welcome the emperor back to the east?"

"If not, why would I consider how to profit from the construction of Guanggu City?"

"Although I am Qingzhou Biejia, I am also the son of the Zheng family in Beihai."

"As the saying goes, fat water doesn't flow to outsiders' fields. This money can be earned by Zheng, why should it be cheaper for others?"

Cao Song was gradually moved: "If you want to make a profit, you should naturally use the land title deed, especially the land title deed near the emperor's palace is the most valuable."

"Liu Shijun must avoid suspicion. He must not build a palace now, but my nephew is from Qingzhou, so he must know the location of this palace."

"As long as you buy all the land deeds around the palace, after the emperor moves the capital, the princes, nobles, officials and officials can only buy the land deeds from your nephew."

"These people are not short of money!"

"Its profit is more than a thousand times and a thousand times!"

Zheng Ping couldn't help but secretly marvel.

Cao Song deserves to be a person who can get away with a lot of money after being embezzled.

Greedy ink is Cao Song's method of accumulating primitive money, and Cao Song's greatest ability is to be good at exchanging benefits.

It is estimated that Cao Song, who spent money to buy the Taiwei, must have used the Taiwei to seek more benefits for himself.

Seeing that Cao Song took the bait, Zheng Ping quickly got up and thanked him: "My nephew, I would like to thank the old lady for her advice. My father and Mr. Chen Liuwen Li are meeting friends in Linzi City recently. If the old lady is interested, you can go to Linzi City for a while."

"My little nephew won't bother you much."

Cao Song didn't want to stay either.

After Li sent Zheng Ping away, Cao Song's small eyes changed instantly: "Ah De, get rid of the alert servant and go to Qingzhou immediately, and make sure to find out what Zheng Xianmou said today."

"If the Zheng family in Beihai starts to buy land, they will pay back immediately."

Cao De wondered: "Father, why don't you just ask Zheng Ping where the emperor's palace will be planned?"

Cao Song sneered: "This Zheng Xianmou's words are covered up in ten or eight sentences. It is credible but not completely trustworthy. If he tells the old man the wrong position, and then he goes to buy the most profitable position, the old man will lose money. Money has to thank him?"

"He is from Qingzhou. The income from selling land must be due to his political achievements. The old man spent a lot of money to buy an ordinary land deed. Isn't he so happy?"

Cao De was even more puzzled: "Then what if this Guanggu City itself is a lie? If Liu Bei doesn't build Guanggu City by then, wouldn't we lose even more?"

Cao Song stroked his short beard, and taught, "Ah De, you need to learn to look at the world's situation when buying and selling land deeds. The rumors in the market are not groundless, and Zheng Xianmou also admitted the matter of passing on the imperial jade seal."

"In addition, Yuan Shu suddenly withdrew his troops and went north to compete with Yuan Shao. All these things point to Chuan Guo Yuxi."

"Liu Bei won the Jade Seal of Chuanguo, no matter whether he is self-reliant or really wants to be a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty, he will move the emperor's capital to Qingzhou."

"Only in Qingzhou, Liu Bei can obtain the greatest benefit!"

"The old man is just against you becoming an official, not against you thinking about the general trend of the world."

"If the Cao family wants to inherit, they must learn to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and don't put themselves in danger!"

Paused.

Cao Song said again: "Xuzhou is not very stable anymore, Tao Qian transferred all the soldiers and horses to Pengcheng, Xiapi and Guangling."

"This old man has been coveting the old man's money all the time, but he didn't dare to steal it openly because of his face."

"If he is unfavorable in the battle in Xuzhou, he may directly send troops to ask for it."

"Now the northern part of Langya Kingdom is actually under the jurisdiction of Qingzhou Mu. You go to the northern counties to buy some houses and transfer some of the money."

"Let's wait for the opportunity to decide whether to invest money and food in Guanggu City."

outside the manor.

Zhuge Liang lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then said, "Brother, Cao Song is too cunning to believe your lies."

Zheng Ping didn't take it seriously: "Ah Liang, if Cao Song was too stupid, he wouldn't pay attention to Guanggu City."

"The art of falsehood and reality is essentially deception, deceit, and lies."

"And the more cunning a person is, the harder it is to see the truth from the truth."

"Because cunning people think too much!"

"The cunning rabbit has three caves. Cao Song is also worried about whether his wealth in Langya Kingdom will be affected by Xu Yuyang's war."

"As long as Cao Song finds out that Qingzhou seems to be more stable than any other place, he will transfer money to Qingzhou."

"However, to transfer this money to Qingzhou, it is still the most beneficial to buy a house land deed."

"Then Guanggu City must be the focus of Cao Song's attention."

Zhuge Liang suddenly realized: "So, my brother's original intention is not to let Cao Song buy the land deed in Guanggu City, but to let him transfer the money to Qingzhou."

"As long as the money arrives in Qingzhou, even if Cao Song doesn't buy the land deed in Guanggu City, he will use the money elsewhere."

"What really attracts a rich man like Cao Song is that Qingzhou is more stable than other states!"

"And Qingzhou is full of waste, and there is a shortage of money and food in various places. This will also allow the wealthy from other places to see opportunities to make profits."

Zheng Ping shook his fan and laughed loudly: "Ah Liang has a deeper understanding of this method of gathering wealth."

There were no bank notes in the Han Dynasty, and naturally there were no bank note shops with cash custody services.

Even a wealthy businessman like Cao Song hoarded his money at home.

But if you want to do business in another place, you have to load your money into a car and move together.

When a family needs to be relocated in the event of a war, it is also necessary to transport the money away.

However, if a rich man like Cao Song, who can carry hundreds of carts of money, would be easily robbed by bandits if he moved frequently, he would also spend a lot of money on the way.

Therefore, a stable environment is very important.

No one wants to move their family business frequently!
Since ancient times, the most basic thing for a region's economy to be improved is to have money!

As long as there is money, even if it is a three-free poverty-stricken county, there is a chance to turn it into a prosperous capital.

If there is no money, it will be difficult to develop even a resource-rich place.

And at the end of Han Dynasty.

The most direct way for Zheng Ping to have money in Qingzhou is to let rich people migrate to Qingzhou!

But why do rich people come to Qingzhou?

The key is to pursue profit!

As long as the interests are enough and Liu Bei can protect the interests of this group of people, he will naturally let these rich people come to Qingzhou with their money.

After leaving Cao Song's manor, Zheng Ping brought Zhuge Liang to Donghai Kingdom.

Going south to "attract capital", naturally the Mi family of the East China Sea cannot be missing.

Mi Zhu is not only the object of attracting capital, but also someone Liu Bei is very grateful to.

For this reason, Liu Bei also specially gave Mi Zhu the quota of Maocai.

There are fewer than 20 Maocai quotas per year, which are much more precious than Ju Xiaolian.

Mi Zhu also readily accepted Liu Bei's kindness!
A Xuzhou Biejia appointed by Tao Qian, and a Maocai recommended by Qingzhou Mu, Mi Zhu could clearly see the benefits.

Knowing that Zheng Ping visited in person, Mi Zhu made a special trip back to Qu County from Tancheng.

Although there is Mi Fang in Qu County who is in charge of Mi's family business, but Mi Fang's vision is too narrow, and she often only sees current interests but not long-term interests.

Therefore, when it comes to important matters, Mi Zhu has to personally intervene.

"The envoy really wants to build Guanggu City?" After getting the answer from Zheng Ping's mouth, Mi Zhu's tone was a little more surprised.

But soon, Mi Zhu had some guesses: "Xianmou wants Mi to take the lead and lure wealthy businessmen from Xuzhou to Guanggu City to buy land title deeds?"

Zheng Ping chuckled: "Brother Zizhong speaks quickly, I'm not polite anymore!"

"The powerful gentry in Xuzhou all know Brother Zizhong's business vision."

"But I don't need brother Zizhong to take the lead. Instead, I need brother Zizhong to try his best to cover up the fact that he went to Guanggu City to buy the land deed."

Mi Zhu understood: "The more I cover it up, the more they will be interested in Guanggu City."

"In addition to the fact that I have sponsored Liu Shijun many times, they will conclude that I have obtained secret information."

"But Xianmou is so deceitful, isn't he afraid of causing trouble in the future?"

A well-known wealthy businessman in Xuzhou like Mi Zhu went to Guanggu City to buy a land deed in a secretive way, just like "there is no silver 300 taels here, and Ah Er next door never stole it."

The more you hide, the more curious you become.

Zheng Ping shook his feather fan lightly, and said in a calm tone, "As long as Guanggu City really becomes the third imperial capital of the great Han, it will not be a lie."

"They can only thank me for giving them a chance to make their family rise!"

Zheng Ping and Mi Zhu were discussing with each other the ways of proving business, while Zhuge Liang listened quietly from the sidelines.

Zheng Ping has advanced cognition beyond a thousand years, combined with the characteristics of this era to think, and Mi Zhu is proficient in the business operation of this era. This discussion confirmed that Zhuge Liang was eye-opening.

Zhuge Liang is already extremely talented, and he can draw inferences about other cases with a little mention.

What Zheng Ping discussed with Mi Zhu greatly expanded Zhuge Liang's knowledge.

After discussing until the evening, Zheng Ping and Mi Zhu finally ended the topic.

"Brother Zizhong, do you have any ideas about the general trend of the world?" Zheng Ping changed the subject, and his tone became a little more serious.

Mi Zhu suddenly shuddered.

Although it was not the first time that Mi Zhu had met Liu Bei and Zheng Ping, Mi Zhu had never really discussed the general trend of the world with Liu Bei and Zheng Ping.

It's not that I don't want to discuss it, but that the relationship is not in place.

After all, Mi Zhu is the leader of Xuzhou, rather than serving under Liu Bei like Zhang Hong and Zhang Zhao.

Whether it is Mi Zhu selling grain and grass on credit, or Liu Bei calling Mi Zhu a talented person, it is just the exchange of interests between the two parties.

Mi Zhu did not fully support Liu Bei like Zheng Ping spent all the financial resources and contacts of the Zheng family in Beihai to support Liu Bei.

But now, since Zheng Ping brought up this topic, it meant that Liu Bei and Zheng Ping were ready to truly regard Mi Zhu as a trusted person.

Mi Zhu's face was also solemn.

For Mi Zhu, it is very important for the family to change from a tyrant in the East China Sea to a real noble family.

Mi's rise in the East China Sea was thanks to the Yellow Turban Rebellion that destroyed the powerful forces in the East China Sea, allowing Mi Zhu to take advantage of it.

However, the general trend of the world, the long-term must be united.

Once the troubled times are pacified, the Mi family is still just a wealthy Donghai aristocratic family. Even if they have hundreds of millions of wealth, they are just fat in the eyes of the powerful.

If the wealth is not matched, there will be great disasters.

"The Lord Shaoguo is suspicious. There are treacherous ministers controlling the government inside, and ministers outside who refuse to attach themselves. The big man is already on the verge of collapse."

Mi Zhu carefully chose his words, observing Zheng Ping's expression while expressing his views on the general trend of the world.

"Even though Shijun Liu occupies the land of Qingzhou, there is Yuan Shu in the south who is still ambitious, Yuan Shao in the north, and Xu Yu in the north, all of which have their own selfish motives."

"If Dong Zhuo imitated Wang Mang and abolished the emperor and established a new dynasty, Liu Shijun gathered soldiers from various clans in the name of the clan, and he could also follow the example of Emperor Guangwu to support the Han Dynasty and reproduce the nine tripods of the Han Dynasty."

"But now that Dong Zhuo is coercing the emperor to order dissatisfaction, even if Liu Shijun has great ambitions to help him, he will suffer from his reputation."

"There are rumors in the market that Liu Shijun stole the information to pass on the jade seal of the country, and it seems that he has the heart of disobedience."

"Even if the rumors only stop with the wise, those who have different intentions will definitely use it to make trouble."

"As long as Liu Shijun has any intention of sending troops, he may be deemed to have the intention to seek power and usurp the throne. Even Tao Shijun in Tancheng will be suspicious of this."

"I don't know how Liu Shijun in Qingzhou will respond?"

　There are still 4 monthly tickets left. Readers, do you still have tickets?

　　Kneeling and begging.
