Cao Cao left the tavern, immediately went back to the mansion, and called Guo Jia over as soon as possible.

As soon as Guo Jia walked into the meeting hall of Cao's mansion, he heard Cao Cao say urgently: "Fengxiao, you pass on my order to stop the conquest of Xuzhou immediately." ”

Guo Jia was stunned for a while before he reacted and asked puzzledly: "Prime Minister, why is this?" After returning from Wancheng, we immediately prepared to attack Xuzhou, not only the strategy has been decided, but even the grain and grass are ready, and the order is suddenly revoked, I am afraid that the soldiers will be resentful! ”

Cao Cao told Guo Jia what Chen Yang said, and he said: "Now Xuzhou is not in a hurry to fight, the most important thing for us at present is to reserve grain, this year's spring will be dry, the crop harvest will be reduced, and the price of grain will definitely soar." ”

When Guo Jia heard this, his reaction was exactly the same as Cao Ang's just now, and he said with a smile: "It's only spring now, and the weather is very good, how can there be a big drought?" It's the prime minister who is overly concerned. ”

Cao Cao shook his head and said very firmly: "You just do what I say, even if there is no major drought, there will be no mistake in stockpiling more grain." ”

"The matter of Wancheng, the shopkeeper Chen is like a god, since this is the case, I believe him again, I hope I am not wrong."

"Go and prepare now, and make no mistake!"

With that, Cao Cao left the meeting hall.

Guo Jia stood in place with a confused face, what is the shopkeeper Chen?

After returning from Wancheng, it was not the first time Guo Jia had heard Cao Cao mention this person.

"Could it be that behind the prime minister, there are other masters who can't give him advice?"

Guo Jia muttered in his heart, and suddenly his eyes lit up, because Cao Ang was also in the meeting hall, he hurriedly asked: "Zixuan, you just went out with the prime minister, and when you came back, you vetoed all the previous decisions, what did you do?" ”

Cao Ang shook his head and said: "It's just to see a tavern shopkeeper, that person not only said that there was a big drought this year, but also said that Yuan Shu would be the emperor, do you think it's possible?" ”

Guo Jia smiled: "Yuan Shu is called the emperor? Unless he is a fool, it is simply impossible. ”

Cao Ang said again: "However, Fengxiao, you should do what your father said, this is already a military order." ”

Guo Jia nodded and agreed, and then, he suddenly saw the wine bottle that Cao Ang was holding.

For a while, Guo Jia felt that the wine worm was in his head, and he smiled and said: "Zixuan, this is your fault, and you won't tell me if you have wine." ”

Cao Ang held the wine bottle and retreated again and again: "This is just ordinary wine, it's not delicious, I'll go back first." ”

Guo Jia is definitely a higher-ranking drunkard than Cao Ang, and he smiled: "If it's ordinary wine, why are you so nervous?" ”

He suddenly stepped forward and was about to grab the bottle again.

The two tugged for a while, and in desperation, Cao Ang could only share the bottle of wine.

"It smells so good!"

"Good wine!"

As soon as the cork is opened, the rich aroma of wine penetrates into the nostrils.

This distilled liquor has a high degree of content.

On that day, Guo Jia and Cao Ang were both drunk and unconscious.

——

Chen Yang sent Cao away, and his tavern quieted down again, so he simply closed the door and went back to sleep.

At present, there are not many liquors, and if you want to make a fortune, you have to prepare a large amount of liquor, mass produce it, and then sell it in limited quantities to raise the price.

But the money is already enough, so he doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking for the time being, and Chen Yang is not in a hurry, he first goes to buy the raw materials for bartending, and then hoards a batch of wine of this era.

The next morning.

Chen Yang didn't open the door, and walked directly to the market in Xudu, it was not the first time he had walked around the city center, this time he had money, so he had the confidence to go directly to the shops and not have to patronize those street stalls.

It's a pity that in the Three Kingdoms era, if you have money, you may not be able to buy what Chen Yang wants, and after shopping around, he only bought a lot of wine and asked people to send it back to the tavern.

Chen Yang also wanted to buy some honey for blending, but there were very few people who knew how to keep bees in this era, and he could find a little last time, but he couldn't find it again this time, and he was disappointed.

However, it can be regarded as the road to the sky.

Chen Yang inquired in the market for a while and learned that there was a farmer on the outskirts of the city who could raise honey and bought them a large jar of honey.

The traffic in this era is also inconvenient, and on the way back, Chen Yang rested while walking.

This body is too weak, holding only a few catties of honey, and before he has walked long, he is so tired that he is about to lie down.

"No, I can't walk anymore, I'm going to work out tomorrow." Chen Yang sat down helplessly to rest.

There was also a small river ahead, and he washed his face with the cold river water, which made him feel a little more comfortable.

At this time, Chen Yang saw a farmer driving sheep, walking in front of him with three sheep, and walked to the mountainside next to him.

Halfway up the mountain, the sheep suddenly stopped, each licking a fist-sized stone, relishing it.

"Uncle, your sheep are so strange, how can they eat stones and not leaves?" Chen Yang asked with a smile.

"You don't understand this."

The farmer was idle, and he said, "Sheep like to eat salt, and these stones have a little salt on them, so they like to lick them." ”

Salt?

Chen Yang is also familiar with history, in ancient times, salt was not only a necessity of life, but also a seasoning monopolized by the government, and basically only large families could afford to eat it.

Poor people are reluctant to cook with salt.

Curious, he picked up a stone, wiped it clean and put it in his mouth to taste it, and quickly spit it out, it was really salty, and there was salt in it.

"Young man, although this stone has salt, it can only be eaten by sheep, and we will be poisoned if we eat it." The farmer said.

Chen Yang didn't respond to his words, he quickly picked up several stones, washed them in the river for a while, and found that they all had white crystals on them, and sure enough.

"Good fellow, if I'm not mistaken, there's a salt mine here, and I have a hunch that I'm going to get rich again!"

Chen Yang was excited in his heart, but he was calm on the surface.

There is definitely a salt mine here, and the ancient people did not know how to purify coarse salt, and it was of course poisonous when used directly for cooking.

Chen Yang is different, as a traverser, he knows everything.

After Chen Yang put away the stones, he suddenly didn't feel tired, ran up the mountain, and continued to pick up the stones for inspection.

It won't be long before Chen Yang can be sure that the stones on this mountain are salty, and they are a proper salt mine.

"But how do I get my hands on this mountain?"

Chen Yang felt that this was a difficult question, and said to himself: "Lao Cao should be able to help, right?" ”

"Forget it, don't care about this for the time being, there will be a way in the future, it's a big deal, give Lao Cao a few more clever plans to exchange this mountain back, and no one can stop me from getting rich."

"From now on, that mountain is mine."

He declared his sovereignty in this way.

Next, Chen Yang picked up the honeypot and rushed back to the city of Xudu.

However, he just walked into the gate of Xudu.

Chen Yang suddenly heard a coquettish voice behind him.

"Front, get out of the way of me, I'm killed, Miss Ben won't pay!"

Then, a fast horse rushed in from outside the city, and the knight turned out to be a heroic beauty.

Many pedestrians on the street seemed to be accustomed to this, and the moment they heard the sound, they dodged one after another.

"Damn, help!"

As soon as Chen Yang turned around, he saw a horse crashing into him, and he was immediately frightened.

He was about to dodge, but the horse's speed was so fast that he was too late to come to his side in the blink of an eye......
