Chapter 756: How about dividing Qingzhou equally?

Following the direction Ye Chen pointed, everyone looked towards the seaside.

"Hiss~"

A large fleet suddenly burst into their eyes, and they couldn't help but take a cool breath.

This fleet is not only big, but also big, hundreds of big ships are connected together, what kind of scene is that?

Even Cao Cao was dumbfounded, the Ye family's fleet was famous all over the world, he had heard of it a long time ago, and he had seen it.

It's one thing to hear it, it's another thing to see it with your own eyes.

Cao Cao had seen Liaodong's fleet when Luoyang fought Dong Zhuo before, and Cao Cao had been very impressed by dozens of big ships at the beginning, but now they are hundreds of big ships.

The level of shock is completely different from what I saw in Luoyang.

After returning from Luoyang, Ye Chen received a large amount of money, and then used half of this money to develop the entire maritime industry, and the other part was mostly used to recruit and resettle displaced people.

If this large amount of money is smashed, a huge fleet will come out.

The ships have also been upgraded, bigger and go further.

"What's the matter, Brother Mengde, this ship is okay." Ye Chen sat on the horse and said dementedly.

Cao Cao came back from the shock, and said with an unnatural face: "Admire, Brother Ye can equip such a huge fleet, I'm afraid it cost a lot of money." ”

"Ugh." Ye Chen sighed and pretended to be pitiful and said: "Don't hide it from Brother Meng De, I actually got two hundred carts of treasures from Dong Zhuo before, and as a result, I smashed all these treasures on the shipbuilding, so that there is now such a huge fleet, and my Ye family's business can be done all over the entire Han Dynasty." ”

Cao Cao's face remained unchanged, but he was shocked in his heart, the treasure of two hundred carts had shocked Cao Cao incomparably.

You know, Cao Cao also got more than a dozen big cars of treasure, that is already a lot of wealth, what is the concept of these two hundred big cars.

No wonder this Ye Chen was able to equip such a huge fleet.

"Brother Ye is so bold, I'm afraid I can make a lot of money on this trip to the south and north." Cao Cao asked tentatively.

"It's all about making some hard-earned money, the sea is too risky, and there are often strong winds and waves."

Of course, this trip made money, and made a lot of money, otherwise how could Ye Chen develop the navigation industry so vigorously.

You know, this nautical industry is not played by ordinary people, and the investment in it is unimaginable.

Today, there are nearly 100,000 workers of various kinds in the shipyard alone.

Feeding these 100,000 people is not a simple matter, not to mention the large amount of materials and other things required for shipbuilding.

Cao Cao was puzzled, he really didn't know about the nautical industry.

"Brother Meng De, how about I help you build such a fleet?"

"Help me build such a fleet?" Cao Cao asked suspiciously.

"That's right, my Ye family likes to do business the most, you can do any business, of course this ship can also be, as much as you want, as long as you can pay for it, I can sell it to you." Ye Chen said loudly.

"If you have money, you can afford to equip such a large fleet." Cao Cao couldn't help but move, such a fleet undoubtedly has a lot of benefits.

But Cao Cao recovered quickly, not to mention how much such a fleet would cost, he would definitely not be able to make it up in a short time, and besides, he still needed to equip the army.

Now his most important thing is to equip the army to fight against Yuan Shao, and the navy will only distract his strength.

Although Yanzhou has the Yellow River passing through it, it is not important to the navy, unlike the Yangtze River.

"Haha, thank you Brother Ye, I will seriously consider Brother Ye's proposal, and when the time comes, I will find Brother Ye, but Brother Ye should stop pit me, and ask for less money."

Cao Cao was not fooled, this was completely expected, Yanzhou did not need ships very much, only a small number of ships were enough.

And a big ship like Ye Chen really didn't need it for them.

However, Ye Chen still continued to flicker and said: "Brother Meng De, although Yanzhou does not need a large number of ships, a small number is still needed, and in the future, hehe, maybe it will be needed, it is better to equip it as soon as possible and train some naval soldiers." ”

"It's really not necessary to feed a lot of shipwrights in normal times, because boatwrights need to eat, and all kinds of tools need to be invested, but you can buy them from us, absolutely at a low price."

"Okay, then it's all up to Brother Ye then." Cao Cao didn't care, he really didn't need any water army at the moment, so he didn't pay too much attention to it.

Seeing that Cao Cao was a little unimpressed, Ye Chen didn't care too much, and when Cao Cao was in need, he would naturally think of him.

Ye Chen came to Qingzhou just to show off his strength and show off his fleet, and now that he has achieved his goal, everything else is easy to say.

"Brother Ye, now that you have a delicate relationship with our Yanzhou Quartet, our two families should still watch over each other, why don't we divide Qingzhou equally?" Cao Cao said.

"Haha" Ye Chen laughed, making Cao Cao and the others puzzled.

This equal division of Qingzhou is not nonsense, and Yuan Shao can't stop the cooperation between the two families.

Cao Cao's vision can be done.

After laughing, Ye Chen said calmly: "I am essentially a businessman, doing business is my hobby and specialty, if it wasn't for others to force me step by step, I wouldn't have rebelled, if the world was peaceful, I would still be a businessman who likes to take risks everywhere." ”

"So, now that I have Youzhou, I still have a few little wives at home, I am very satisfied, and I don't want to fight for any Qingzhou, if Brother Meng De is willing, I can help Brother Meng De take Qingzhou, what do you think?"

Ye Chen's words were extremely surprising.

Ye Chen has no ambitions? Just want to do business in Youzhou?

Whether this is true or false, everyone does not dare to judge it easily.

Cao Cao was also very puzzled, he didn't expect his idea to get such an answer.

"Oh, Brother Ye's answer is very surprising, I am indeed interested in Qingzhou, so I don't know how Brother Ye can help me?" Cao Cao didn't know whether it was true or not, he didn't dare to believe Ye Chen easily, so he said tentatively.

"Of course, you pay and I contribute, do you do business, it's just an equivalent exchange."

After Ye Chen finished speaking, Cao Cao's eyes widened and asked, "This can also do business?" ”

"Stupid, of course you can, and it's a big business, if Brother Meng De intends to do this business, we hit it off, I pretended to send troops to contain Yuan Shao in Daijun, you can attack Qingzhou, if Yuan Shao dares to send troops, I will also send troops."

After Ye Chen finished speaking, he looked at Cao Cao with a smile, waiting for his answer.

"The matter of life and death of a soldier, let me think about it." Cao Cao didn't dare to agree, this matter was very important, and he couldn't judge whether Ye Chen was true or not.

The two discussed other matters again, Ye Chen took the opportunity to promote his own products, and Cao Cao did not agree to Ye Chen except for salt and some necessary things.

After doing a few small businesses, Ye Chen was also very happy, this salt was monopolized by Cao Cao himself, but he knew that if he didn't buy Ye Chen's salt, then he would smuggle it to his own place, so his income would be greatly reduced, so it was better to buy Ye Chen's salt and control the salt in his own hands.
