The Pension Plan Expands from the Three Kingdoms to the Heavens

Chapter 203 Zhuge Liang: "Brother will lead you to join a group!" Qingzhou Family: "Reliable!"

Zhuge Liang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after seeing the situation in Yuan Jun's camp.

joke!

If these 10,000+ soldiers of Yuan, who are going crazy with hunger, are allowed to attack Leling City, even if Zhuge Liang thinks that Tai Shici and others have the upper hand now!
He didn't think that the small town of Leling could face this group of Yuan Jun who were thinking about cannibalism!
We are almost starving to death, why not give it a try? If Wen Chou and Yuan Tan were to have a last-ditch fight, even Tai Shi Ci would not have a big advantage!
Of course, this move can be regarded as hurting the enemy and hurting himself even more. You must know that even if Leling City is captured, there will be a more magnificent and solid Nanpi City behind it. Yuan Tan is not willing to do it just for this. A small Leling is risking its life with others!

Guo De handed a letter from Guo Tu to Yuan Tan who was full and full of food and drinks. The letter described the introduction to Ge's Trading Company and the agreement between him and Ge Ming.

After eating and drinking enough, this famous young man who had returned to his noble demeanor showed a habitual expression of disdain when he found out that Ge Ming was originally a merchant.

However, he was considered scheming and soon regained his formulaic smile.

Yuan Tan still has some political acumen, knows the priorities of things, and understands that the Geshi Shipping Company is indeed the logistical lifeline of his army!
He first pretended to praise Zhuge Liang, such as being loyal to defending the country, and being chivalrous and courageous, and then he used his identity as the eldest son of the Yuan family to assure Zhuge Liang that his request would be fulfilled!

In addition, he began to draw pictures to him of becoming an official and rising to great heights!He even said that when the matter is finished, I, Yuan Tan, the eldest son of the Yuan family, will personally promote you!From now on, your Ge family will no longer be a businessman, but a big family in Qingzhou!

In short, it just means the same thing. If you transport food to me, I will guarantee that you will be promoted and make a fortune, and that your family's chickens and dogs will ascend to heaven!
And he kept hinting there, please deliver more food and grass to me, this little food and grass is not enough to eat!

And here Zhuge Liang was secretly happy, but he showed a look of embarrassment on his face, directly expressing that now the wind is tight and the task is heavy!

Because the Liaodong Navy was at war, its inspections on the rivers became more and more strict!
Even if he has some connections in the Liaodong Army, the risk of being escorted one after another is too high!

The two discussed it, and finally Zhuge Liang said that he still had time and ability to use his fleet to directly deliver half a year's food to the army!
This risk will be reduced after Yuan Tan captures Leling City!
However, the risks of this plan are still relatively high, and it will take some time and manpower to raise merchant ships and establish relationships.

Yuan Tan thought for a moment and realized that the tens of thousands of stones of grain transported from Qingzhou this time would probably be enough to feed the army for about a month.

There should be no problem with the time. He discussed it with Wen Chou.

Both of them felt that this method was good. If they brought the food and grass at once, they would be sure to take over Laoling City within half a year, so Yuan Tan asked Guo De to bring a letter to Guo Tu and asked Guo Tu to do so. Tu here will do their best to help Ge's Ship Company and strive to raise enough food and fodder for the army for half a year within a month!

When Guo Tu got the letter brought back by Guo De, as a counselor's instinct, he was actually a little worried. After all, enough food for the army for half a year would require at least more than 100 million dan. Does Guo's Shipbuilding Company have such a size? Moreover, Ge Ming was a little worried about giving so much food to him!

Although Guo Tu didn't speak, his eyes still changed a little. Smart people always understand smart people.

Zhuge Liang could see the hidden danger in Guo Tu's heart at a glance, but he did not directly persuade him, but deliberately changed the subject and asked.

"I don't know, Mr. Guo, about the sale of salt at Ge's Shipping Company!"

At this time, Guo Tu remembered that the Ge family still asked him to buy and sell salt goods, not to mention that the Ge family's shipyard and shop are still in Qingzhou. If you run away from the monk, you can't run away from the temple!

He immediately said to Zhuge Liang with a pleasant expression.

"Don't worry, Ge Lang. If you work for me and the eldest son, it will be easier to negotiate!"

Guo Tu didn't lie. After Yuan Tan left, he was basically the top leader in Qingzhou.

In this era, due to the slow development of productivity, most of the salt manufacturing industry was operated by the government.

Even in the era of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Sang Hongyang, the imperial censor, implemented the government-run policy of salt and iron during the era of Emperor Wu, completely turning salt production into a state-owned industry and prohibiting private salt production among private individuals!

It immediately brought a huge amount of salt profit to the court at that time, and provided a large amount of money and food for Emperor Wu to attack the Xiongnu!

Although after the Eastern Han Dynasty, aristocratic families emerged and the people were allowed to make salt, but their size and resources determined how their salt production could compare with the government?
Guo Tu notified the Salt Department of the state capital and issued a letter asking them to sell a large amount of official salt to Ge.

At this time, Guo Tu approached Ge Liang and asked in a low voice, "Ge Lang, can you really make a lot of money selling salt in Liaodong?"

"This is natural. People in Liaodong are already boiling saline-alkali soil to get salt!"

This is a traditional method of making salt in the Han Dynasty, which is to boil the soil in the saline-alkali land and filter out the salt. However, this kind of table salt not only has many impurities, but also contains heavy metals. It is considered a kind of poisonous salt!

But in this world where the average life expectancy of ordinary people is less than 30 years old, what is the difference between eating poisonous salt and not eating poisonous salt!

Guo Tu’s eyes suddenly lit up!
Zhuge Liang is so smart. When you see Guo Tu like this, you know that this guy wants a piece of the pie!

He asked deliberately immediately.

"Could it be that Mr. Guo is also interested?"

In this way, the two successfully conducted a wave of PY transactions, and Guo Tu opened the entire official salt warehouse in Qingzhou to Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang purchased a large amount of official salt at a cost price that was half a percent lower than the market price, and the price difference was Guo Tu's share.

In this way, Military Advisor Guo Tu got himself a big business without spending any money!

This business acumen will probably be very prosperous in the shopping mall in future generations!
To be honest, Guo Tu himself is not short of money, but in this world, who would think too much money!
If you don’t want it yourself, you can leave it to your family!

Just when Zhuge Liang started to buy salt in large quantities, news spread in Qingzhou that Ge's Shipping Company had a big deal, and it had already established a relationship with Guo Tu. As long as you participate, you can expect money to fall from the sky!
Suddenly, Ge's Trading Company was crowded with people, and many aristocratic families in Qingzhou sent their disciples to Ge's Trading Company!
After asking, I found out that they were preparing to transport salt to Liaodong, and then Zhuge Liang's rhetoric about the lack of salt in Liaodong that Zhuge Liang told Guo Tu somehow spread to the ears of these aristocratic families.

After hearing this, these aristocratic families slapped their thighs one after another!
Hey!
I said so!
The sales of salt in Liaodong have gone crazy in the past four years. It turns out there is a salt island!

Later, they inquired and found out that Guo Tu had already made an agreement with Ge Ming, the son of the Ge family, and now they have successfully formed a team and are preparing to take the official salt from Qingzhou to Liaodong to make a fortune!

Now they are angry!

What do you mean, little brother, he has salt in Guo Tu, but I have no salt!

They all ran to Zhuge Liang to make trouble, because they were just salt and wanted to become an official!Don’t you just want to become a noble family?
Tell me!

I guarantee that everything will be properly arranged for you!

Who is Zhuge Liang? Immediately said that such a big matter, I, a small businessman, must not be in charge!
So I pulled Guo Tu on!

When Guo Tu heard this, he was stunned!

What's the matter?

What's causing the storm in the city? I just want to make some extra money while transporting food and grass!
Zhuge Liang, on the other hand, is possessed by the movie king, and he seems quite aggrieved, but I don’t know that!
After checking the source of the news, the two found out that the news was leaked by Guo Tu's nephew Guo De when he was drunk with a Qingzhou family. They immediately called Guo De for questioning.

Guo De was also confused. He had indeed drank that day, but did I say that?
Didn't I say that?

Why can't I remember, did I lose my memory!
Seeing Guo De's useless look, Guo Tu also blew his beard and glared angrily. In the end, he had no choice. Now that the news had spread, Guo Tu didn't dare to eat alone. Although he was now the top leader in Qingzhou, he still couldn't do it. How dare you casually offend so many Qingzhou families!

He immediately invited all the heads of aristocratic families in Linzi to come to his mansion to discuss how to divide the cake!
When the Qingzhou family saw it, even Guo Tu came forward. It seemed that the news should be true. In this way, Zhuge Liang, Guo Tu and the Qingzhou family talked for a whole night, and finally reached an agreement and formed a group to Liaodong copy. Fuck TND hard!
