Chapter 500: Cao Cao has no food

Looking at Yuan Lian's extremely resentful eyes, Zhen Yi smiled and said: "Yuan Gong, I am a businessman, I am in business, I am willing to buy and sell, there is nothing to complain about!" You see, I don't just have food, I have armor and arrows, and even weapons! If Yuan Gong wants, I can give it to you at the best price! You must believe in my sincerity! ”

Damn it, let your sincerity go!

Regarding what Zhen Yi said, Yuan Lian really didn't want to believe the punctuation.

But when he heard that Zhen Yishou actually dared to sell him armor, arrows, and weapons, Yuan Jian finally determined one thing.

Zhen Yi dared to sell food in front of him, absolutely at the behest and permission of Lu Bu, otherwise, how could Zhen Yi have such courage to even sell armor and arrow weapons to himself?

This temperature is really true!

On the surface, he doesn't accept himself, but secretly he sends people to do business with him and make a lot of war money, this kind of person is simply amazing!

Yuan Jian inquired about the price of Zhen Yi's armor, arrows, and weapons again.

As a result, to Yuan Lian's surprise, the price of armor, arrows, and weapons was still very expensive, but this price was definitely within Yuan Lian's psychological tolerance, and it was even a little low.

This, how is this possible?

Is this what a profiteer should do?

Suddenly, Yuan Jian found that he seemed to be unable to understand Lu Bu.

However, in the end, Yuan Jian still couldn't be sure, so he could only wait until he went back to ask Yuan Shu for instructions, and then made a decision.

Then Zhen Yi told Yuan Jian that it was not impossible to buy armor, arrows and weapons, but at that time, it would not be possible to trade them with money.

It must be traded with items such as pig iron or horses, otherwise, they will be refused to be sold to Yuan Shu.

This is Lu Bu's original intention.

After all, the big money is in Lu Bu's hands, and it is not very useful.

Rare items are the most important thing!

You know, Lu Bu is in control of the largest gold and silver mines that have been discovered and mined in the world so far, is he a person who is poor in money?

……

Soon, Yuan Jian went back with the first batch of 100,000 catties of grain.

Before he could pay, Zhen Yi happily asked Yuan Jian to transport the grain away.

He was not afraid of Yuan Lian's debts at all.

If he dares to repay the debt, the lord must have a way to make him repay it tenfold and hundredfold.

Seeing that Yuan Shu really came back with food, Yuan Shu couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Well, although the final price of the deal made Yuan Shuzhi frown.

But Yuan Shu thinks that this price can buy grain, and Lu Bu has been quite kind.

After all, what he did to Lu Bu at the beginning was even more excessive.

When Yuan Shu heard that he could even buy armor, arrows, and weapons from Lu Bu, he was immediately overjoyed.

Oh quack!

Is this true?

Yuan Shu has really coveted the armor, arrows and weapons used by the people's soldiers for a long time.

I've always wanted to get it, but I've never had a chance.

But now, Lu Bu is actually willing to sell to the outside world?

The price is still so low?

Yes, Yuan Shu felt a little expensive, but Yuan Shu didn't feel expensive at all, but felt very cheap!

Yuan Jian thought it was expensive, compared to ordinary arrows, armor and weapons.

For the armor, weapons and arrows used by the people's soldiers, it can only be said that they are very cheap.

It seems that Lu Bu is really interesting.

I can't say it, after repelling the alliance between Cao Cao and Liu Bei, I must give Lu Bu a big reward.

Then, Yuan Shu immediately sent Yuan Jian to set off, taking the iron ore, horses and other items that Lu Bu wanted, to exchange for Lu Bu's arrows, armor and weapons.

……

Yuan Jian found Zhen Yi, Zhen Yi really believed his word, and exchanged arrows, equipment and weapons for Yuan Jian according to the price agreed in advance.

However, when Yuan Jian saw the quality of these arrows, equipment, and weapons, his nose was almost crooked.

"Zhen Gong, are you kidding me? Is this what you mean by arrows, equipment, and weapons? The quality is also poor, isn't it? This is not the equipment and weapons that your army is equipped with at all? ”

Zhen Yi blinked his eyes and said, "Yes, if it's the weapons and equipment that our army is equipped with, do you think I can get it?" If it was really weapons and equipment equipped in the army, do you think the price would be so cheap? ”

said it so reasonably, Yuan Jian felt that he was speechless......

In fact, these weapons and equipment are all the batch of equipment that Lu Bu picked up when he rebelled against Pingqianghu.

Lu Bu's army naturally doesn't look down on this kind of weapon, but it can still be sold!

Originally, Lu Bu was going to sell it to Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, but now that Yuan Shao has died, he can only sell it to Yuan Shu!

Looking at the equipment in front of him, Yuan Jian was speechless for a long time.

After a while, Yuan Jian said: "I can't be the master of this matter, I must ask my father-in-law before I can decide." ”

Zhen Yi said lazily: "Then it's up to you!" If you don't want it, I'm sure Cao Cao and Liu Bei will be very interested! ”

"You!"

Yuan Jian pointed at Zhen Yide's nose, and Zhen Yi was speechless for a while.

Yuan Lian really wanted to ask Zhen Yi, do you still have discipline? Is there a bottom line?

But on the other hand, it is natural that people themselves appear as merchants, and whoever offers the highest price will sell to whomever they want.

In the end, Yuan Jian returned with a part of the samples, and he really couldn't be the master of this matter, so he could only hand it over to the lord Yuan Shu to decide.

After hearing about this, Yuan Shu was also angry!

Originally, Yuan Shu thought that the equipment and weapons they were talking about were the equipment weapons equipped in the Jiangdong Army, but he didn't expect it to be not.

With this kind of ordinary equipment and weapons, you dare to offer such a price? It's just an open gun!

But now Yuan Shu's army is also in urgent need of arrows, equipment and weapons, even if the price is high, Yuan Shu can only pinch his nose and admit it.

……

The combined forces of Cao Cao and Liu Bei knew that Yuan Shu's food was running out, and Yuan Jian sent an envoy to Jiangdong and was not received by Lu Bu.

In other words, Yuan Jian did not ask for food in Jiangdong.

Now, Cao Cao and Liu Bei are not in a hurry, just wait for them to besiege them until the day when they run out of food, and then they will naturally be defeated.

It's just that as time passes, there is no sign of rout in Yuan Shu's army.

This couldn't help but make Cao Cao and Liu Bei more and more confused.

Hey? Impossible? How could there be so much military ration in this Yuan Shu army? This, this doesn't feel scientific, huh?

Something seems to be wrong!

At this time, the military rations of Cao Cao's army also began to be tight.

Although Cao Cao took the granary of Jizhou, after all, the development time is still short, and the grain reserve is not too much.

And Cao Cao's collection of 200,000 troops, 200,000 troops for a day's military supplies, is a huge expense.

And in order to supply the military needs of this 200,000 army, it is necessary to mobilize no less than 200,000 people to transport grain and materials, and these people also need to eat, drink, and consume!
