The compound of Yanzhou's treasury is full of winter military uniforms.

Of course, there was no cotton in this era, and the so-called winter clothes were made of thick cloth woven from hemp.

More than a dozen quartermasters were busy counting, recording, and putting them into storage.

This is the last need for the army to go on the expedition, so Cao Cao took Cheng Yu over to inspect.

Previously, Mrs. Bian's younger brother was in charge of the military quartermaster, but the guy made a lot of money by himself, so that although Cao Cao didn't kill his head after finding out, he was sent to the army to work as a coolie, and as a result, the house that he worked hard to repair was cheaper than Liu Ping.

Cao Cao did not dare to be careless, so he personally picked up the recorded bamboo slips and asked a quartermaster: "Have all the county winter clothes been handed over?" ”

The quartermaster lowered his head and replied, "Returning to the envoy, except for Shanyang County, all counties have been paid. ”

"Why Shanyang County?" Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, his tone filled with annoyance.

Letting peasant women make winter clothes is a kind of labor, and every county has a task, although Shanyang County is in charge of Liu Ping, but this is a military need, and there is no exception.

The quartermaster was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and said in a trembling voice, "Yes...... It was ordered by the eldest prince, and he said...... He said that Shanyang County was exempted from hard labor ......"

"What a guts! Is the labor service exempted when Cao Ang says it will be exempted? Does he still have me as a father in his eyes," Cao Cao was furious, slammed the bamboo slip in his hand to the ground, and roared: "Summoning him to me."

Winter clothes were made to order according to the number of sergeants, and the lack of a county supply meant that thousands of sergeants would wear single clothes to fight with him.

After a while, wearing a single coat and talking about war, they all froze to death.

Everyone at the scene, except for Cheng Yu, was so frightened that they all knelt on the ground and trembled.

Another herald went to Cao Ang's mansion to deliver a message.

The more Cao Cao thought about it, the more angry he became, among his children, he loved Cao Ang and Cao Jie the most, but now it's good, Cao Jie stole his official seal and falsely passed on military orders, Cao Ang actually made his own decisions and was exempted from labor in Shanyang County.

These two are simply lawless.

He suddenly remembered that Cao Jie pretended to pass on the military order and let Yecheng pick mulberry leaves was also sent to Shanyang County, which was the territory under Liu Ping's control.

It seems that these three people are really complicit.

Not long after, the herald came back to report: "Back to the envoy, the eldest prince accompanied Liu Ping to Shanyang County early in the morning, I don't know what happened. ”

"What are they doing in Shanyang County?" Cao Cao pondered, and stretched out his hand to beckon Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu was deeply trusted, and he knew everything that happened in the Assassin's Mansion, he pinched his beard and muttered: "This is picking mulberry leaves again, and it is also exempting peasant women from labor, it seems that Ping Gongzi didn't listen to you, and he is still continuing to raise his silkworms." ”

Previously, Liu Ping wanted to pick mulberry leaves to ask Cao Cao for help, Cao Cao thought that Liu Ping was short of money, and told him seriously, how much money can you make by raising silkworms?

So he drew a large sum of money from the overstretched military salary and rewarded him, so that he would not be troubled by these details.

For this reason, Cheng Yu, who is in charge of internal affairs, has been distressed for several days, and now that he is so short of money, he is too kind to treat this prince.

Unexpectedly, it seems that after Liu Ping took the reward, he did not stop, and ordered the peasant women in Shanyang County to help him raise silkworms, which caused the peasant women under his rule to have no time to make winter clothes.

Cheng Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, people say that birth determines a person's vision, and this statement is true.

A small guy, even if he is in a high position, he still can't change his true nature of greedy for small money.

It's just that it is too undeserved to delay military supplies for a little money.

Cao Cao also recognized Cheng Yu's judgment that Liu Ping was continuing to raise silkworms, nodded and said: "This Ping'er is too worry-free, the three of them are working together, and they treat me as an outsider." ”

When he said this, he was inexplicably sour.

The most favored pair of children, one did not hesitate to pass on military orders for Liu Ping, and the other was exempted from labor under Liu Ping's rule, both of them carried his father behind his back for Liu Ping, making his heart how cold and cold he was.

And he suddenly remembered that he had vaguely heard his wife inadvertently say that Cao Ang had also touched his mother's own money, which was confirmed at this time, which made Cao Cao even more unacceptable.

Self-money is the last guarantee for a woman's life, no matter how much Cao Cao is short of money, he has never beaten his wife's idea of self-finance.

But Cao Ang actually moved, how could he not be angry?

He thought in his heart, it seems that the investment is not small, it doesn't matter if the money is lost, but Ang'er's identity is sensitive, if he loses all his mother's body and money, if it spreads, won't he become a laughing stock in the world?

What qualifications does this kind of loser have to cultivate himself as a son of the world?

"Let's go to Shanyang County and see how much money those two guys have left."

"No, I'm going to get ready." Cheng Yu responded.

Assassination history travels, you need a certain guard of honor.

"What can you see when you go with great fanfare? Let's go to the two microservices, "Cao Cao wants to pay a private visit to the microservice, go deep into the people to grasp the first-hand information, and then teach these two guys a good lesson."

As for Cao Jie, he was being punished at this time......

……

The two of them looked for two sets of ordinary businessmen's clothes to change into, but no one was alarmed, rode two thin horses, and went straight to Shanyang County.

When I entered the boundary of Shanyang County, I reached the edge of the city, but I found that I didn't meet a few people.

It is said that there are a lot of displaced people in Shanyang County, where have they gone?

With doubts, the two entered the so-called county seat, where there were a lot of people, and they all seemed to be rushing in one direction.

Don't look at the fact that this place is so close to Yanzhou, Cao Cao and Cheng Yu are also here for the first time.

Cheng Yu grabbed an elderly farmer and asked, "This old brother, where are you going?" ”

The old peasant gasped and said, "Go to the government office to get my old wife and daughter-in-law paid." ”

"Wages?" Cao Cao couldn't help but interject, pointing to the hurried crowd and asking, "What salary?" Are these people all going to get paid? ”

The old farmer simply stopped, and said with a little pride on his face: "I see that you are from other places, you don't know yet, two months ago we came here a goddess girl, recruited the peasant women of the county to raise silkworms and brocade with her, and promised to give each person a salary of 1,000 yuan per month."

How can anyone be paid for servitude? We didn't dare to believe it at first, but we didn't expect that the goddess girl would do what she said, and she would fulfill it today, and two members of my family went to work, and they could receive a salary of 4,000 yuan. ”

The old farmer was obviously afraid that he would not be able to receive it if he was late, so he hurried away after saying these words, leaving Cao Cao and Cheng Yu standing on the spot.

It was only natural for the government to requisition peasants for hard labor, and they had never heard of paying them.

"What the hell are these two boys up to?" Cao Cao was secretly angry in his heart.

He allocated money from such a tight military salary to reward Liu Ping, and Cao Ang did not hesitate to use his mother's own money, is it just to pay peasant women wages in the name of raising silkworms?

It's really a cheat.

Are these two guys crazy or stupid?

Also, who is the so-called goddess? Is it a festival?

No way, Jie'er is grounded at this time.

With a head full of fog, the two followed the flow of people and came to the empty field in front of the official office.

I saw that the peasants had formed a long queue of people, and a table was set up in the middle, and a scribe was looking through the roster, and those who turned it up went to the two soldiers in the back to collect the money.

Behind the soldier lay a few empty boxes.

In the distance, Cao Ang and Liu Ping looked at it calmly, not distressed at all.

As soon as Cao Cao saw this, he was angry and couldn't wait to catch these two guys and kick them immediately.

These two losers used Lao Tzu's money to buy people's hearts, they really didn't feel distressed, but Lao Tzu was distressed.

There's not much left of that.
