Chapter 2: The God-Making Movement

Cao Ang had just entered Luoyang City, and he saw a commotion on the street, and a few women even had the courage to grit their teeth and kneel at the front of the team with the child in their arms, causing Cao Ang's personal soldiers to be half nervous to death.

Cao Ang was very puzzled and retreated from his own soldiers, and then frowned and asked, "Do you have any grievances that need to be claimed?" ”

When the women heard this, they were all at a loss, and one of the most daring immediately kowtowed and said, "The slut just wants General Cao Ang to pray for the child in my arms, and I heard that as long as your hand touches the child, you can avoid ghosts and gods, and the child can enjoy happiness for life, so she has the courage to come and ask for it." ”

Cao Ang's face trembled, and he didn't have to guess to know that this was another god-making movement by Yuan Yun, and he didn't stop in Luoyang, which really made people laugh and cry.

Hard-headed, Cao Ang still touched the heads of several children separately, and the happy women immediately burst into tears, and soon more people knelt down, constantly shouting that Cao Ang was the sky of the people.

It took a lot of effort for Cao Ang to get rid of the people's 'love', and at the same time found that the horse could not be ridden, so he could only get into Yuan Yun's frame.

Looking at Yuan Yun's expression that seemed to be smiling, Cao Ang said a little angrily: "Why deceive these ignorant people, they are tired of making cattle and horses for you in Luoyang, and you still have to deceive them, this is really unreasonable." ”

Yuan Yun retorted unhappily: "What is called a cow making a horse? I don't know how much their quality of life has improved now, everyone has enough food to eat, flowers and clothes to wear, how come I became a black-hearted foreman in your mouth? ”

Cao Ang replied impatiently, "Are you letting people spread rumors about my miracles again?" ”

Yuan Yun shook his head and said: "No, no, if you spread any miracles, it will be the same as Zhang Lu in Hanzhong, that is what the gods do, I spread heroism, and heroes are most needed in this era, and Brother Cao Ang is the biggest hero." ”

Cao Ang blushed slightly, and said: "Brother Yun, don't send those political commissars to do your propaganda offensive door to door, I think it's really embarrassing, what you made up is too exaggerated, why I fought with 3,000 people in Wancheng to save my father, and finally killed Zhang Xiu's thirteen Taibao, seventy-two disciples, and finally swaggered back to Xudu, if I hadn't been rescued by your master and apprentice, I would have died a long time ago." ”

Yuan Yun shook his head again and said: "No, no, no, now that I have the academy, why do I need to be so troublesome, I have written the heroic deeds of Brother Cao Ang directly in the textbook I compiled, so that it can spread quickly." ”

Cao Ang was taken aback, he never thought that his name was on the book, this is a treatment that only ancient saints can have, and now his face turned even redder, and he asked for a long time: "Brother Yun did this, and Old Man Zheng Xuan didn't stop it?" ”

Yuan Yun showed a painful expression, and then nodded: "At first, it must have been stopped, but when he saw that the children in the academy had become positive because of hero worship, his old man finally acquiesced." ”

Cao Ang glanced at Yuan Yun suspiciously, and said: "The hero is reasonable, but those women just now regarded me as a god, and this old man Zheng Xuan also allowed you to write it in the textbook?" ”

Yuan Yun's face was a little embarrassed, and finally replied: "Okay, I handed over the miracle to Mr. Storyteller, and there is really nothing to do with textbooks." ”

Cao Ang's face twitched twice, and said, "You're still sending people from door to door to publicize, right?" ”

Yuan Yun smiled and said, "I didn't go door-to-door, I just asked the storyteller to tell two paragraphs in the market or on the street from time to time." ”

Cao Ang wailed, feeling that this nightmare was still lingering, and there was a clear tendency to expand in Luoyang.

Yuan Yun looked at Cao Ang's aching face, and only felt funny in his heart, but he definitely had no intention of stopping this god-making movement, and if he didn't put Cao Ang on the altar, this matter would definitely not be over, and no one knew better than him Yuan Yun about the horror of propaganda.

Seeing that Cao Ang was so resistant, Yuan Yun decided to change the topic, at present, the matter of creating gods is not very urgent, and it takes a long time to imperceptibly, and it is too early to discuss this matter.

"The mines in Xuzhou and Shougang, today's products are still not enough, what other ideas does Brother Cao Ang have?" After Yuan Yun asked, he looked outside the car, the streets were neat and clean, and the city managers were also doing their jobs.

Cao Ang shook his head, as if he wanted to get out of his mind what Yuan Yun had just said about the god-making movement, and only after soothing a little bit did he smile: "Yuan Shang in Jizhou in the north, what he wants to deal with most now is not us, but Yuan Tan who is stationed in Qingzhou, if this continues, we will soon be able to take Yecheng and occupy the entire territory of Jizhou, didn't Brother Yun say that there are a lot of minerals, I am ready to take it before others." ”

After speaking, Cao Ang suddenly looked carefully at Yuan Yun's head for a while, then sighed and said, "I'm very strange, why do you know the location of those Jizhou minerals, Brother Yun, could it be that you and Mr. Zuo Ci were still exploring mines by the way when you traveled?" ”

Yuan Yun smiled and said, "There are some things that our master and apprentice don't do with all their might, and the master naturally has friends who do these things, and everyone will communicate when they meet, so they will naturally know something." ”

Cao Ang sighed, and reluctantly accepted it, but he began to wonder in his heart again, there is such an incomparably precious information as minerals, and someone is willing to share it with their master and apprentice, it seems that this person is generous.

In order to cover up, Yuan Yun immediately continued: "How Brother Cao Ang is going to occupy these big mines in Jizhou, Cao Ren will definitely come to intervene." ”

Cao Ang laughed and said: "What did Cao Ren use to intervene, the feed farm in Beihai has formed a scale, and the feedlot in Xudu has also been established, and now the meat has been taken over by Xiahou Nan, and a big entry for Cao Ren's family is gone, and also, Brother Yun, you asked Zhang Liao to rob their caravan in Hanoi, which caused Cao Ren's family to be miserable this year, where does he still have the money to go north to open a mine?" ”

Yuan Yun was stunned and said, "Why did Xiahou Nan attack so ruthlessly this time?" asked him to deal with Cao Ren before, but he was always submissive. ”

Cao Ang shook his head and said with a wry smile: "For women." ”

"Women?" Yuan Yun's mouth crooked, feeling ridiculous.

Cao Ang looked at Yuan Yun's expression and said: "It's the Oiran Yudie of Yueyun Tower, Xiahou Nan seems to like this woman very much, and Cao Ren often patronizes Yueyun Tower when he knows about it, and every time he asks Yudie to sit with him, and sometimes he stays overnight, can Xiahou Nanyan not be angry?" ”

Yuan Yun suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and reminded: "Brother Cao Ang has time to remind Xiahou Nan, this kid, don't make a mistake in the hands of this woman, I always feel that this utilitarian heart called Yudie is too big, and love or something is probably just a prop for her to use." ”

Cao Ang spread his hands and said: "I have persuaded him, Xiahou Nan didn't listen at all, and he did such a lot of hard work for Yudie, do you think you can persuade him in one or two sentences?" ”

Yuan Yun sighed deeply, knowing that this kind of thing for men and women is indeed very troublesome, if Xiahou Nan really falls into it, it will be difficult to pull it back, and there is no way to think about it like this.

After being depressed for a while, Yuan Yun decided not to worry about anything anymore, so he asked, "How does Xiahou Nan operate the meat market?" ”

Cao Ang smiled bitterly and said: "Xiahou Nan is definitely black-hearted this time, you don't know how desperate this kid is, relying on the feed supply for livestock, the livestock grow fast, so the price of meat is very low, and Cao Ren's family can't catch up."

Then Xiahou Nan began to sell pork to those nobles, and also gave some recipes of the Yun family's family as gifts, causing many nobles to also start eating pork, which immediately made the Cao Ren family's mutton-based business out of business.

Then Xiahou Nan used the money earned from pork to establish a pasture in Beihai, raising a large number of sheep and cattle, mutton was eaten, and the cattle were sold to the imperial court for farming.

By the way, the farm you divided in Xudu before, now it has become a meat processing site, Xiahou Nan just used it to slaughter and make all kinds of meat food, and now the meat that is shipped out there every day is a whole car, and the people of Xudu are happy, and my father has decreed that eating meat is no longer the exclusive right of the nobles. ”

Yuan Yun clapped his hands and said with a smile: "It is estimated that the meat of chickens and ducks, Xiahou Nan has not raised less, right?" ”

Cao Ang nodded and said: "Naturally, there are a lot, I went to Beihai last time, those chickens and ducks running all over the ground, they all make people happy, Xu Yi also complained to me, saying that he didn't want to eat chicken for the rest of his life, because he accompanied Xiahou Nan to establish a chicken farm, and he smelled all day long, and now he sees the smell of chicken in his nose." ”

Yuan Yun also laughed, Xu Yi and Xiahou Nan also did a good job in Beihai's opinion, so it is the best, the brothers have something to do, so as to lay a solid foundation for Cao Ang in the future.

After thinking about it, Yuan Yun exhaled a sullen breath in his heart and said, "Cao Ren seems to be going bankrupt this time, let's see how he will play with us in the future." ”

Cao Ang was a little more cautious when he heard this, shook his head and said: "Don't despise my uncle, he has a lot of resources in his hands, although these businesses have been smashed, but his family's quality of life has not decreased, I heard that he also built a new yard." ”

Yuan Yun was stunned for a moment and said, "Could it be that Cao Ren has started to rob tombs again?" ”

Cao Ang shook his hand and said: "That's not true, my father has already banned it, and he doesn't dare to be brave to him, but the soldiers who robbed the tomb before were all sent to Hanoi County by Cao Ren, and they are still recruiting a large number of strong men over there, and I don't know what Cao Ren is going to do." ”

Yuan Yun buckled his chin, and called the information in his mind, and the whole person was not good in an instant, and said with a wry smile: "Heaven does not die Cao Ren, there are a large number of coal mines in Hanoi County, Cao Ren is probably ready to start this business, now coal has become a necessity for everyone's life, most of the few in our hands are supplying Luoyang and several other steelmaking workshops, Cao Ren's coal will immediately seize the market, he is a good calculation." ”

Cao Ang was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Do we have a way to seize these markets in advance?" ”

Yuan Yun smiled bitterly, Hanoi County is the territory of Shanxi in later generations, and people in later generations who don't know the coal boss in Shanxi, Cao Ren can be regarded as occupying a good place, and the demand for coal will be more and more great, so it seems that Cao Ren's family will not be able to be brought down for a while.

Seeing Yuan Yun's expression, Cao Ang comforted: "Things are already going well, we can't knock Cao Ren down with a stick, let's take care of this matter slowly, don't be in a hurry." ”

After speaking, seeing that Yuan Yun was still full of sadness, Cao Ang laughed and said: "Brother Yun doesn't have to be annoyed, you said before, the power comes out of the barrel of the gun, and now my gunpowder army in Xudu has reached more than 10,000 people, and they are all pure professional soldiers, and a lot of the money we earn back has to be used to support these soldiers, sometimes I really want these people to go to Tuntian, and in the end I gritted my teeth and persevered."

Now after a year of training, these people are considered good soldiers, and I am now thinking about how to go to the battlefield for training every day. ”

Yuan Yun shuddered instantly when he heard this, if Cao Ang wanted to go to the battlefield so much, then the quick battle of Yecheng would probably not be able to get around, which meant that he Yuan Yun would also go on the expedition, which was definitely very bad news.

It's just that this was originally an era of war, and there are very few people like him Yuan Yun who haven't been on the battlefield a few times, so they are already very lucky.

After thinking about it, Yuan Yun replied stiffly: "Brother Cao Ang is going to the battlefield, and this time the younger brother will definitely accompany him." ”

Cao Ang glanced at Yuan Yun suspiciously, suddenly smiled, and said: "It seems that Brother Yun is also enlightened, the battlefield is a good place to train men, you always hide in the rear to make your body so weak, you should follow me to the front line to work hard for some exercise." ”

Yuan Yun rolled his eyes instantly, then pointed to the outside of the carriage and said: "My house has arrived, this frame will be borrowed from you first, but you have to pick up your mother-in-law, Lao Tzu will go home now to make a man with his wife, lest he be unlucky to go to the battlefield with you, and Lao Tzu's huge property will not be inherited." ”

Cao Ang looked at Yuan Yun's scoundrel look, just smiled wryly and got out of the car, and then ordered his entourage to go to the mansion and invite He Yao out.

When Yuan Yun also got out of the car, Cao Ang said in a low voice: "Brother Yun is ready, my father has already begun to deploy, the big war may come soon, and then Zhang Liao and you and I will be transferred away." ”

Yuan Yun snorted, then arched his hand at Cao Ang, and returned home helplessly.
