Chapter 28: Yuan Shu Becomes Emperor
A pot of fish soup was wiped out by them like this, Xun Yu was still a little unsatisfied, but he was embarrassed to let Chen Yang make it again.
"Shopkeeper Chen, before I came, the prime minister told me that if the salt mine is real, he can give you all the mines, and he will also give you a team of 3,000 people to guard this mine, what do you think?" Cao Cao said suddenly.
"A team of 3,000 people, Lao Cao, what you said is true? Not kidding me? Chen Yang asked in surprise.
He never thought that he could also lead the army in ancient times, and Prime Minister Cao Cheng was so generous, which made him a little unbelievable.
Chen Yang looked at the environment near the salt mine for a while, this mine is not too high, the terrain is flat at the foot of the mountain, it can be built into a military camp, and it looks quite good.
It's just that Prime Minister Cao Cheng not only sent the mine, but also gave it away, Chen Yang still couldn't believe it, and looked at Lao Cao suspiciously.
"Of course it's true."
Cao Cao laughed and said: "Although the prime minister has never seen the shopkeeper Chen, he already knows that your ability is extraordinary, in fact, doing so is also a kind of wooing." ”
Chen Yang asked: "In terms of military salary, how to calculate it?" ”
Cao Cao said solemnly: "Naturally, it is given by the prime minister, you only need to lead the army and dig salt mines here." ”
"If anyone dares to come to the idea of attacking the salt mine, you can transfer the three thousand soldiers at will, you are their general, and they are also the foundation of your protection of this salt mine."
Cao Cao is willing to do this, still because he sees Chen Yang's potential and is willing to invest.
And as he said, it's a way to woo.
The salt mine is very important to them, and they also need to rely on Chen Yang's wine to make a lot of money.
Considering these two aspects, Cao Cao felt that it was worthwhile to give Chen Yang an army of 3,000 men to garrison the salt mine.
When Guo Jia and Xun Yu saw this scene, they were a little envious, Shopkeeper Chen could be so appreciated by the prime minister.
After listening to Lao Cao's words, Chen Yang thought for a while and said, "Okay, since the prime minister believes in me so much, I want this army, and I promise not to disappoint you." But I made it clear in advance that I was only responsible for the safety of this salt mine, and if you want me to go on the march or something, you should not look for me. ”
Cao Cao smiled again: "Of course not, there are generals Cao Ren and Xiahou to fight, so you don't need Chen's shopkeeper." ”
As he spoke, Cao Cao looked back at the guards next to him, and said, "Ye Shun!" ”
As soon as the voice fell, a tall general came over, knelt down and said, "Here!" ”
Cao Cao said again: "From now on, you will follow Shopkeeper Chen and obey Shopkeeper Chen's orders. ”
"Yes!" Ye Shun nodded and said.
In this way, he was summoned by a general, and there were 3,000 soldiers who could be transferred by him at will, Chen Yang felt that it was too unreal as a dream.
"Only some of them were brought out today, and after tonight, all the soldiers will be stationed here and obey the orders of Shopkeeper Chen." Cao Cao added.
"Lao Cao, you can help me thank Prime Minister Cao." Chen Yang nodded with satisfaction.
Cao Cao smiled: "Shopkeeper Chen, you are polite, since we choose to cooperate, these are what we should do." Another thing, the wine has spread all over Xudu, and the salt mine has also been obtained, so when should the wine be sold? ”
Chen Yang thought for a while and said, "Just tomorrow." ”
Cao Cao was satisfied: "Cheng, I'll let Xiao Cao help you, with him, you can sell it at a good price." ”
After the banquet in the palace and the publicity of the Sima Family Restaurant, whether it is in the circle of nobles or the circle of commoners, they all know the existence of this kind of wine.
As for how to sell the wine, Cao Cao didn't ask, and he didn't worry, no matter how the shopkeeper Chen tossed, anyway, with Cao Ang by his side, those scholars would not give Cao Ang face, and they couldn't suffer a loss.
In this way, the matter of the salt mine was decided, and Ye Shun and other soldiers were temporarily stationed here, and then according to Chen Yang's request, a salt factory was built nearby.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Chen Yang was worried about Zhang Chunhua at home, so he proposed to go back to Xudu first.
After entering the gate of Xudu, Chen Yang separated from Cao Cao and the others.
Cao Cao and the others went back to Caofu first, and they were busy in the salt mine for an afternoon, and they still had a lot of official business too late to sort out.
"Report!"
At this moment, outside Cao's Mansion, a fast horse suddenly ran.
"Report to the Prime Minister, urgent military order!"
After the knight stopped, he turned over and dismounted, knelt in front of Cao Cao, took out a strip of cloth full of words, and handed it to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao opened it and took a serious look, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and he was surprised: "Fengxiao, I just got the news that Yuan Shu is called the Son of Heaven and is the emperor in Shouchun!" ”
"What?"
Hearing this, Guo Jia was even more shocked, he didn't care about any etiquette, and snatched the piece of cloth directly from Cao Cao's hand, and looked at it over and over again.
This is not fake, Yuan Shu is really the emperor.
Let the shopkeeper Chen be right again!
Cao Cao and Guo Jia's hearts were like a stormy wave.
How is this possible?
Could it be that Chen Yang can really predict the prophet?
"Yuan Shu is the emperor, I am convinced by the shopkeeper Chen!" Guo Jia said with a sigh.
Xun Yu on the side was puzzled at first, and then said in surprise: "Prime Minister, before this, Shopkeeper Chen has bluntly said that Yuan Shu will be the emperor?" ”
Cao Cao nodded solemnly: "That's right! Before the battle of Wancheng, it was also Chen's shopkeeper who said that Zhang Xiu would surrender first and then rebel, and now Yuan Shu was called the emperor, so he was right. ”
"Is Shopkeeper Chen an immortal? It also makes him right! ”
Xun Yu had completely forgotten his disdain for Chen Yang, and said in shock: "Shopkeeper Chen is definitely an immortal talent, he is like a god, and the prime minister must take it for his own use!" ”
Guo Jia also nodded and said: "That's right, the prime minister has the assistance of the shopkeeper Chen, so why worry about big things?" ”
"It's a pity that I still owe Shopkeeper Chen a mansion, and I regret not being at the beginning!"
Thinking of the bet with Chen Yang, Guo Jia regretted it, he knew that the shopkeeper Chen was so powerful, what else to bet on?
Cao Cao smiled: "Fengxiao, you can't regret your bet." ”
Guo Jia smiled bitterly.
Afterwards, Cao Cao immediately called all the strategists over and gathered them in the hall of Cao's mansion.
Yuan Shu called the emperor This is a big deal, and Cao Cao, as the prime minister of the Son of Heaven, naturally he will not leave it alone.
Through discussions with many strategists, Cao Cao decided to use the order of the Son of Heaven to gather the princes of the world to jointly conquer Yuan Shu.
But this time, as Chen Yang said before, there are not many real corresponding.
Yuan Shu and Gongsun Zhan were fighting each other, and neither responded.
Liu Biao and others in Jingzhou all stood still.
Only Jiangdong Sun Ce was willing to send troops and cooperate with Cao Cao, because Sun and Yuan Shu had a feud.
In addition, Liu Bei, who has always been personally called the Han Dynasty, also responded to Cao Cao's order.
However, Liu Bei's soldiers and horses were so small that they were almost negligible.
This world is no longer completely the world of the Han Dynasty.
Despite this, the banner of the Han family still has a little bit of appeal, and no one dares to openly oppose Han.
Therefore, Yuan Shu became a traitor and remained the common enemy of all princes in the world.
Regarding the matter of Yuan Shu becoming emperor, Chen Yang still didn't know.
After returning to the restaurant, Chen Yang went to find Zhang Chunhua as soon as possible, and the two got tired of it for a while, and then he went to Hua Tuo to learn the five poultry operas.
Now Hua Tuo is living in Chen Yang's tavern, and for this ancient super miracle doctor, Chen Yang can't wait to keep him by his side forever.
You must know that in ancient times, there was a lack of medicine, and the medical conditions were extremely poor, and any cold could kill someone.
To have a miracle doctor by his side, Chen Yang couldn't ask for it.
Before you know it, the night passes.
It is impossible for the Sima family to make trouble again, and tonight is very peaceful.
