Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Dividends of the Western Regions
After Bian finished talking about his son Cao Zhangying's charming marriage, he turned the topic to another issue, only to see her get up from the swing she was sitting on, and then paced back and forth in the small courtyard, obviously organizing her words in her heart.
After a long time, Bian asked slowly: "Cao Jie has lived in the Yuan Mansion for so long, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are from the Yuan family, I don't know what Yuan Yun's plans are for your kid?" ”
Yuan Yun was stunned for a moment, and wondered, "What does Aunt Bian mean by this?" ”
Bian frowned and said: "I talked a lot with Qinghe'er before, and she hopes to marry this little girl Cao Jie into the Yuan Mansion, but I don't know what Yuan Yun means by you?" ”
Yuan Yun chuckled in his heart, and quickly shook his hand and said: "Aunt Bian, I'm afraid it's a misunderstanding, I treat Cao Jie like a sister-in-law, where are there any dirty thoughts, plus the wife and concubine I have now, I am already very satisfied, and I can't afford more." ”
Bian raised his eyebrows slightly, and said: "Then why did you send Wu Yong to warn Queen Fu, you must know that you are going to marry Cao Jie into the palace, it is precisely because this queen is very restless, that this makes your father-in-law Cao Cheng move the mind of replacement, and I brought the news, you will start to arrange it immediately, it is estimated that Queen Fu will inevitably begin to converge soon, so Prime Minister Cao Cheng will also avoid giving up the plan to marry Cao Jie into the palace, so it seems that you Yuan Yun is not reluctant to marry Cao Jie to others?" ”
Yuan Yun instantly had a feeling that he couldn't be washed away by jumping into the Yellow River, and after thinking about it for a while, he replied: "Sister Jiejie is unwilling to marry into the palace, so I helped her, this is my original intention, Aunt Bian Mingjian." ”
"Mingjian, you stupid head, you are smart and clever in the place where you are suffocating, how can you become a fool when it comes to the affairs of men and women." Bian didn't know what was wrong, and suddenly lost his temper.
Yuan Yun scratched his ears, then sighed and said, "This matter is probably a misunderstanding, Aunt Bian don't be angry, let's talk about Cao Pi's son." ”
Although Bian knew that Yuan Yun was changing the topic, she still couldn't refuse, after all, what she was most concerned about now was Cao Pi, so she could only change the topic and say, "What's wrong with Pi'er?" ”
Yuan Yun saw that the Bian family was no longer entangled in Cao Jie's affairs, and his heart was a little more stable, so he hurriedly continued: "Cao Pigongzi should return to Xu Capital in the near future, but he was bewitched by Cao Ren and others, and he has always been hostile to Brother Cao Ang, which is not a good thing after all, so can Aunt Bian persuade one or two, at least let him not be so impatient, rush to the front in everything, and in the end he can only be a gunman." ”
Bian's brows were completely wrinkled this time, and he thought for a moment before replying: "What's the use of my persuasion?" Now Pi'er believes in Cao Ren more than me, for his ambition that has been cultivated, I'm afraid no one can control it, I believe Yuan Yun You also know best, once your ambition begins to swell, you will ignore it, and this is the case with Pi'er today. ”
Yuan Yun smiled, shook his head and said: "Aunt Bian may have misunderstood what I mean, what I mean is not to let Cao Pigongzi let go of his ambitions, but to let him learn to be smarter, and he doesn't always have to rush to the front to stand up against Brother Cao Ang first, as for how ambitious he is, I don't care much, I just hope that he is not being used, but to use people like Cao Ren reasonably." ”
Bian was stunned, but in an instant, this doubt disappeared from her face, she has been with Cao Cao all the year round, she has seen more of this kind of deceitful things, and naturally has a certain amount of experience, and now Cao Pi has become like this, because of his ever-expanding ambitions, but to realize his ambitions, at least people should be smarter, and if they want to inherit Cao Cao's inheritance, they only rely on obeying others, so they will only become puppets in the end.
"Yuan Yun, at this moment, I really believe that you are indeed doing your best for the Cao family, no matter who inherits this Cao family's family business in the future, after all, it needs a talent with the posture of a dragon and a phoenix, otherwise the future of the current Son of Heaven Bian and Cao's family." Bian said that he stopped speaking, and then sat back on the swing quietly, just waved his hand casually, and sent Yuan Yun to retreat.
After Yuan Yun left the small courtyard where Bian lived, he only felt that his back was full of sweat, Bian just now directly compared the Son of Heaven, it was simply a big rebellion, and it is also conceivable who she was influenced by to become so 'disrespectful', it must be that Cao Cao of Yecheng has become more arrogant and domineering.
"That's not a good thing." Yuan Yun sighed secretly, turned around and returned to his back house.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he happened to collide with the bouncing Yuan Quan, and the nurse next to him immediately knelt down and saluted, but Yuan Quan, the little girl, was happy, and immediately threw herself into Yuan Yun's arms, and said with a smile in her mouth: "Quan'er is going to school in Xunfu, do you want to go over with Daddy?" ”
Yuan Yun kissed his daughter Yuan Quan's little face, and then smiled: "I don't know what your mother thinks, let our talented girl Wen Ji don't need it, I have to worship under Xun Yun's door, so my baby has to work back and forth every day." ”
Yuan Quan still replied with a smile: "My mother said that the Xun family is a high-ranking family, and there will be many benefits to worshipping under his family, and the eldest mother also said that the Xun family is rigorous, and Quan'er, as the eldest daughter of the Yuan family, went there to study before she joined the identity." ”
Yuan Yun doesn't care about his daughter, who is a few years old, but he doesn't feel very accepting of the arrangement with Cai Wenji and Liu Yiyi, and the children's studies don't need to be so strict, and the status or something is nonsense.
But since he thought of Xun's family, Yuan Yun was moved in his heart, he had never gone to Luoyang Xunfu after his triumph, Xun Yu sent his eldest son and second son to Luoyang to listen to the errand, these two brothers also did very well, the construction and operation of the farm is rising year by year, and at this time it is really necessary to visit in the past.
Now Xun Yu's eldest son Xun Yun is in charge of everything in Luoyang Xun, this is also a wonderful person, he took a fancy to the future development of Luoyang at a glance, so he resolutely gave up Xun's development in Yanzhou, and then came to Luoyang with some children and nephews.
"Haole, Daddy will go to Xunfu with Quan'er today." After Yuan Yun finished speaking, he picked up his daughter, and then ordered someone to prepare the frame, at this time Liu Yiyi touched it lightly, and then there was a posture that I would also go.
The corners of Yuan Yun's mouth twitched, and then he looked at Liu Yiyi and said, "Are you planning to pull the Xun family into the water in the matter of the Western Regions Trade Road?" ”
Liu Yiyi rolled her eyes, and immediately smiled: "Yuan Lang, you are really smart, Yiyi has a plan, so you won't be known, now Wu Yong's dead fat man has begun to calculate, but the strength of their family, tsk, the huge Western Regions they can't gnaw down, without the participation of our Yuan Mansion, who can move the Jincheng Gunpowder Army commanded by General Zhang Jaw, so the concubine is ......"
"Stop, you just want to make money, don't talk so much nonsense, before instigating Shi Shen's idiot to go over there to sell his life, and then he went around to gather funds, after Cao Jie got on the boat, it was equivalent to Cao Fu also joining in, so that even if you make it big, the court will not dare to squeak, now you pull up the Xun clan again, ho, the Western Regions is estimated to depend on your world, and if other caravans want to enter, I'm afraid it will depend on your face, right?"
Yuan Yun hugged his daughter, and then was held by Liu Yi and said as he walked, but he had no intention of objecting at all, because the benefits that the Western Regions Business Road can produce now, I am afraid that many people are waiting and seeing, so the article in the imperial court prohibiting merchants from outside Luoyang from joining the Western Regions will be promulgated so quickly.
You must know that for example, the most powerful businessmen today, which one is not controlled by these powerful families, they are almost all at a loss for the Western Regions, and naturally they will not care about the interests of that side, but as soon as such a court decree is promulgated, if you want the Western Regions to flourish again, you will be greatly restricted.
Then we have to teach these people a big lesson, and when the Yuan Mansion makes a lot of money, these so-called families who see the money will inevitably be red eyes, and they will not be in a hurry to have ghosts at that time, so this time is the best time to seize the Western Regions Trade Road, and when the Yuan Mansion expands there, then the rules over there will be the final say in the Yuan Mansion.
"Don't look at me pitifully, I didn't say that I wouldn't let you run it." When Yuan Yun sat down in the carriage, he glanced at Liu Yiyi, and saw that she was repeating the old drama again, so he could only say with a wry smile.
When Liu Yiyi heard this, she immediately put back the tears that were about to be squeezed out, and then said with high spirits: "Since Yuan Lang trusts Yiyi so much, then Yiyi will definitely earn back a lot of wealth for our family. ”
Yuan Yun put Yuan Quan in his arms on the soft collapse, and then turned his head to look at Liu Yiyi and said, "This game you laid out is now comprehensive?" ”
Liu Yiyi nodded obediently and said: "The court is presided over by Cao Jie's sister from Cao Mansion, so it is not a big problem, and the transportation is naturally handed over to Wu Yong, the military has already informed General Zhang Liao of Chang'an, as well as Zhang Jaw and General Gao Lan of Jincheng, they occupy a share, plus all kinds of old friends in Luoyang, probably share another share, so we still have most of the profits in our hands to use, the concubine estimates that as long as our family only accounts for forty percent of the shares, it is a shocking profit, and now it is a poor talent. So we have to deal with the people of the Xun family, there are a lot of powerful guys in their family. ”
Yuan Yun listened to the corners of his mouth twitching constantly, if Liu Yiyi was placed in modern society, he would definitely be a tumor that created corrupt officials and corrupt officials, even he Yuan Yun didn't know that this goblin had already opened all the joints in such a short time, it was simple.
"All profits are counted, Luoyang must account for half of it, this matter is not negotiable." Yuan Yun smiled bitterly and made a summary.
Liu Yiyi's eyebrows immediately wrinkled when she heard this, and then she pounced on Yuan Yun and began to bite his ear, still muttering in her mouth: "Then there are less than thirty percent left in our family, we are so tired and tired, why do we always have to cheapen others?" ”
Yuan Yun didn't know how to explain to Liu Yiyi, even if she did, I believe that this slamming wife would definitely not listen, so at this moment, she simply let her bite her ears and complain.
