Cao Shuo gave Mrs. Cai to Cao Cao, and the army was stationed in Xiangyang, and there was no sign of leaving for more than half a month.

Wherever Cao Shuo has been to and become the Cao family, Lingyun Pavilion will come to intervene.

The army is still stationed in Xiangyang, and the steward of Lingyun Pavilion has arrived.

A wing room in Liu Biao's back house.

Cao Shuo sat on the top, and the steward of Lingyun Pavilion stood facing him.

"How many Lingyun Pavilions do you plan to build in Jingzhou?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Returning to my son, I plan to build one in every city." The steward replied: "In this way, a lot of Jingzhou's money can also be transported to Huainan." ”

"It's a good idea, but I don't think it's necessary." Cao Shuo said: "Open a few in big cities such as Xiangyang, and other cities will not need them." ”

"Jingzhou already belongs to the Cao family, is the son still worried about anything?" The steward asked in surprise.

"Although it belongs to the Cao family, it doesn't belong to me yet." Cao Shuo said: "Everyone knows that Lingyun Pavilion is my industry, and it is too ostentatious to set up too much. If you want to do it, it's nothing to run a few more in Mochizuki Tower. ”

"I see." The steward of Lingyun Pavilion asked, "Do you want to build a Moon Tower in Xiangyang and other places?" ”

"Absolutely." Cao Shuo said: "There is one more thing, although Mochizuki Tower is also my property, don't say that to the outside world. Find the right person and declare the property to the outside world. ”

"It's been arranged a long time ago." The steward of Lingyun Pavilion replied: "Over the years, there have also been some people who suspect that Mochiyue Tower is the property of Gongzi, and I have arranged for someone to take care of the matter. ”

"Who are you looking for?" Cao Shuo asked: "Is this person reliable?" ”

"Go back to Gongzi." The steward of Lingyun Pavilion said: "We claim to the outside world that the owner of the Moon Tower in each place is different, and it is not the property of any one person. ”

"Chain stores." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "This statement is good. ”

"Chain stores?" The steward of Lingyun Pavilion was stunned: "I don't understand what Childe said too well......

"The model that Mochizuki Tower claims to be a chain store is it." Cao Shuo said: "This is very good, even if there are some places where Lingyun Pavilion can't stand firm, at least no one in Wangyue Tower will provoke them." ”

"It's just that Mochizuki Tower pays too many taxes in the local area." The steward replied, "Their interests are much thinner than those of Lingyun Pavilion. ”

"Lingyun Pavilion has a backer." Cao Shuo said: "Who dares to collect heavy taxes in Lingyun Pavilion? Even my father knew that it was better to ask me directly for heavy taxes. As for Mochizuki Tower, they don't seem to have a backer, so of course they have to be exploited on them. ”

"That's what Childe said." The steward answered.

Cao Shuo then said: "Have you ever thought about opening a kind of store, that is, let people go into the store to buy things by themselves, and pay for them before they go out." ”

The steward asked blankly, "I haven't really seen the shop that Childe said, but it sounds chic." ”

What Cao Shuo is talking about is actually a supermarket that has become commonplace in later generations, but it has not yet appeared in this era.

For the manager of Lingyun Pavilion, the chic and novel way of doing business is certainly attractive.

He asked Cao Shuo, "I just don't know how to run this kind of shop." ”

Cao Shuo has never run a supermarket either, so of course he doesn't know what the specific details are.

After briefly outlining the operation methods of the supermarket, he asked the manager of Lingyun Pavilion: "Do you think it can be done in this way?" ”

"For the people, such a shop is indeed unprecedented." The steward of Lingyun Pavilion said: "Under the rule of Gongzi, the road is not left behind, of course it is okay to operate like this." Elsewhere, however, there may be a lot of theft. ”

"Then send more people." Cao Shuo said: "As long as you keep an eye on it, theft should be avoided." ”

"I see." The manager of Lingyun Pavilion replied: "After settling down the Lingyun Pavilion in Jingzhou, I will start to do it." ”

"I'm a layman in business, and I'll leave everything in the mall to you." Cao Shuo said: "You can name the kind of store I just mentioned, supermarket, or supermarket for short. ”

"This name is domineering and chic, except for Childe, I'm afraid no one can think of it." The steward of Lingyun Pavilion responded.

"Did the Touching Gold Camp send you any good things lately?" Cao Shuo asked again.

"Sent a lot." The steward replied: "They have picked up the tomb of King Jing of Zhongshan. ”

asked Wei Tu to open the tomb of King Jing of Zhongshan, Cao Shuo just said casually at the time, but he didn't expect to touch Jinying so quickly.

He pouted and smiled: "Wei Tu is still so silent about his work, and he didn't report to me, and he picked up the tomb of King Jing of Zhongshan." ”

"The tomb of King Jing of Zhongshan is no less than the tomb of King Liang." The steward whispered: "General Wei said that they did it quietly, so as not to spread it out, and Gongzi was blackmailed again." So he didn't report back to Childe immediately, and planned to wait until Childe returned to Shouchun. ”

"Who else can blackmail me but my father?" Cao Shuo smiled: "But it is also appropriate for him to arrange it this way, and there are more and more places under my rule." The exemption from taxation in various places is indeed very stressful. ”

"Can Childe collect taxes in advance?" The steward said: "Previously, there was only one state and two counties under Gongzi's rule, which was easy to handle. Now that money is being asked everywhere, Lingyun Pavilion alone is indeed a little stretched. ”

"It's not possible to collect taxes in advance." Cao Shuo said: "The most fundamental thing for a husband to establish a world is integrity. I promised the people that they would not collect taxes for ten years, so they had to wait for ten years. Fortunately, Xuzhou and other places are not far from the date of taxation, and if you boil it up, I will no longer be strong in the past two years. ”

Cao Shuo's statement was reasonable, and the steward didn't dare to say anything, so he had to bow down.

"In the years of tax exemption, Lingyun Pavilion has had to work harder." Cao Shuo said: "I will tell Wei Tu that when you meet the tomb, it doesn't matter whose it is, just dig it." He dug up good things, and he can also make up for some of them. ”

"I'll go and finish what Childe arranged first." The steward bowed.

Before he left, Cao Shuo said: "With a new way to make money, remember that you must monopolize, if you want to make a lot of money, the only way is to monopolize the entire industry." ”

"I understand what Childe means!" The steward of Lingyun Pavilion replied and bowed down.

Not long after he left, Deng Zhan walked into the house.

After saluting Cao Shuo, Deng Zhan said: "Childe, Cao Gong asked General Xu to invite him, saying that he was discussing sending troops to Jiangdong. ”

"Has my navy arrived?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Back to Gongzi, it will take at least ten days or so for the navy army to arrive." Deng Zhan replied.

"Urge them to hurry up and attack Jiangdong, they can't do it without a navy." Cao Shuo said: "There are also weapons, I have been waiting in Xiangyang for so long, why haven't they been sent yet?" ”

"I'm going to have someone rush it, and it should be there soon." Deng Zhan responded.

Cao Shuo stood up and instructed Deng Zhan: "You go and urge the navy and weapons, and I will take General Zhu to see my father." 2k reading network
