Of course, Liu Xin and the others didn't know that Zhang Rangzheng was happy for their marriage. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

After Liu Xin and others teased Zhang Rang for a while, they returned to the topic.

Yuan Shao said with a smile: "In this way, as long as there is no accident, the eunuch forces will support the eldest brother to obtain the position of Yizhou pastor, and the eunuch forces basically can't leave Luoyang casually, let alone come to Yizhou to influence the eldest brother's decision-making, so the eldest brother will not be manipulated by the eunuch forces, and can become a truly independent Yizhou pastor, and Yizhou can really be in the hands of the eldest brother." ”

Liu Xin nodded and said seriously: "Of course, the current Yizhou Assassin Shi Yijian will definitely not be able to stay in Yizhou because of his assistance in the Ban Yuman rebellion, but unfortunately this Yizhou Assassin Shi Yinjian is Zhao Zhong's person, and Zhao Zhong is very likely to protect him, which is really helpless." ”

"But in this way, even if the position of Yizhou Assassin is vacant, and the officials of the Yijian faction will fall one after another, so now for me, the Yizhou Mu, it will be much less difficult to control Yizhou, as long as I can become the Yizhou Mu, I will have a way to control the entire Yizhou within this year, and make Yizhou a monolith."

When Cao Cao heard this, he sighed and said: "Hey, but then again, in order to help me catch Zhao Lin, you have already offended Zhao Zhong, Zhao Zhong is an important figure in the eunuch power, will he trouble you in some aspects?" ”

Liu Xin smiled and said indifferently: "As far as I know, among the eunuch forces, Zhang Rang is outside the main and Zhao Zhong is in the main, but in the eyes of His Majesty, Zhang Rang's importance is far greater than Zhao Zhong's, Zhao Zhong seems to be on an equal footing with Zhang Rang, but in fact it is not, Zhang Rang can mobilize much more resources than Zhao Zhong." ”

"I am now Zhang Rang's person, Zhang Rang wants to shape me into the new powerful prince of the Han Dynasty, in order to expand the eunuch power in secret, after all, the eunuch power is dependent on Your Majesty, and now there is such a force, but without Your Majesty, the eunuch power is nothing, so Zhang Rang will win over and help me, the greater my ability, the greater the help to Zhang Rang in the future, so Zhang Rang will definitely spare no effort to help me, if Zhao Zhong dares to blatantly retaliate against me, then Zhang Rang will stand up for me nine times out of ten."

"Zhao Zhong, as an important figure in this eunuch force, can still be on an equal footing with Zhang Rang on the surface, which shows that Zhao Zhong will not be a fool, it is impossible for Zhao Lin to risk offending Zhang Rang, or even the possibility of war with Zhang Rang, to come and fight with me, not to mention that I am not a soft persimmon."

"Let's start with a few days ago, I earned a whole million taels of gold in the auction in Chengdu, this money is not a small amount, it is enough for me to buy a few thorns in the hands of His Majesty, and as long as I take out 100,000 taels of gold, I think even if it is the Yuan family where the second brother is located, he is willing to be my umbrella and fight with Zhao Zhong."

Yuan Shao nodded, and said affirmatively: "Of course, although the Yuan family has a big business, but a year's income, if you remove all kinds of food and clothing, there will be less than 10,000 taels of gold left, and if there is any major event this year, then there may be no way to make ends meet, as far as I know, now the Yuan family only has two or three hundred thousand taels of gold as hole cards, and most of them are still properties such as house deeds and land deeds, and the cash is very small." ”

"Therefore, if the eldest brother takes out 100,000 taels of gold to befriend the Yuan family now, the Yuan family will definitely sweep the couch to greet him, not to mention offending a Zhao Zhong, even if it offends the entire eunuch force, the Yuan family will grit their teeth and persevere."

After Cao Cao listened to Yuan Shao's words, he said in surprise: "My God, I always thought that the Yuan family's property would start with at least one million taels of gold, but I didn't expect the Yuan family to have such a little money now." ”

Yuan Shao smiled and said helplessly: "I know my own family affairs, although I am just a concubine and can't touch the high-level secrets of the Yuan family, but I still know a little bit about the Yuan family's foundation, after all, the matter of the Yuan family's property is no longer a secret within the Yuan family, and basically everyone with a little identity knows about it." ”

"And third brother, think about it, although the Yuan family has a big business, and the protégés and former officials are all over the Han Dynasty, it seems that it is indeed infinitely beautiful, but in the final analysis, the Yuan family needs to spend a lot of money, and the maintenance of various industrial connections needs to cost money; The children of the Yuan family spend all day and drink, and it costs money to buy officials; The food and clothing of thousands of people in the Yuan family is also a lot of money; Your Majesty has something to do to collect the money, which must also be given. ”

"In short, the Yuan family earns a lot, but the expenditure is more, after all, the Yuan family, as the leader of the wealthy family, must make enough face and earn enough reputation, so they use the best food and clothing, and they can't blatantly accept bribes like the ten permanent servants, so in the end, the Yuan family's family property is not much, excluding land and houses."

"Of course, if you count the personal wealth of each Yuan family, the overall wealth of the Yuan family is still very considerable, after all, many descendants of the Yuan family will buy private property, such as the compound that Yuan Shu bought for private soldiers in Luoyang, which was purchased privately, and was not counted in the Yuan family's property, like the property given to Yuan Shu by the Chen Tao family, will not be counted in the Yuan family's property, so the Yuan family's family property has actually been distributed in the hands of each Yuan family, even I, the Yuan family's unvalued concubine, He also holds nearly 10,000 taels of gold in his hands. ”

Liu Xin nodded, this situation of the Yuan family is very common in the Han Dynasty, the wealth of the family is often concentrated in the hands of a few high-level families, and the common part of the family's wealth is very limited, which is also to enhance the control of the high-level of the family over other family members.

Cao Cao looked at Yuan Shao with a little envy, and said: "Sure enough, the Yuan family has a big business, although my grandfather also left me a lot of property, but it only adds up to 100,000 taels of gold, and this is still the property of the entire Cao family, and I, the eldest young master of the Cao family, only have the right to control 10,000 taels of gold, but after buying the three BMWs, they directly shrank by half. ”

Yuan Shao looked at Cao Cao angrily, and said helplessly: "Third brother, what are you looking for me to ask for funding, when it comes to this yellow and white thing, you have to find our eldest brother, the eldest brother has a million taels of gold in his hand, not to mention those good things that have not yet been sold, just talking about the toiletries we used just now, isn't that worth a lot of money?" As long as it works properly, it is enough to exchange for the same weight of gold. ”

After listening to the conversation between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, Liu Xin smiled, and couldn't help but feel some emotion in his heart.

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, the two sons of the family, have a wealth of tens of thousands of taels of gold in their hands, but they are still crying poverty, which shows how scary the wealth in their hands is for a wealthy son like Yuan Shu?

And those low-level Han people, it is very good to be able to make ends and ends all year round, and it is very good to have a couple of gold in the family business, which shows how big the gap between the rich and the poor of the Han is.

Sure enough, it's the old society of all evils.

Liu Xin sighed, these are not the problems he can solve now.

But when it comes to toiletries, Liu Xin has an idea.

In Su Jia's database, there are many recipes for toiletries made with pure Chinese medicine, which can be made in the current environment without any need for any machine processing.

As the saying goes, sit and eat the mountain.

Although there are still a lot of various materials in the warehouse in Chengdu, and more materials will be unlocked in the future, Liu Xin also has to find a way to start establishing a localized production line in Dahan, such as paper, toiletries, and other materials that can already be produced in Dahan, Liu Xin can completely establish a workshop to start production.

Thinking of this, Liu Xin opened his mouth and said: "Second brother, third brother, you can be regarded as a reminder to me, although the number of things I brought back from the Western Regions is limited, but some things can be produced in Dahan, such as the toiletries you mentioned just now, they are all composed of the essence of various herbs, and the process is very simple, as long as there is a suitable match, it can be produced!" ”

"So, I now plan to buy a manor on the outskirts of Luoyang and set up a workshop specializing in the production of toiletries, and I will definitely be able to make money every day, but I still need the help of the second and third brothers."

As soon as Cao Cao heard that he could make money, he immediately became interested and said: "Big brother, you have something to say, as long as the younger brother can do it, I will go and do it for you immediately." ”

Yuan Shao also nodded with a smile, and said: "The third brother is right, if you have any needs, big brother, just command, I happen to be idle now, and I can help the eldest brother wholeheartedly." ”

Liu Xin smiled and said happily: "Since there are two virtuous brothers to help, it seems that my idea will be realized soon." ”

"In fact, what the two virtuous brothers need to do is very simple, that is, to help me buy some herbs as much as possible, and then recruit a group of trustworthy workers and guards, because the recipe and production process of toiletries are relatively simple, it is easy to leak secrets, and I don't have any connections in Luoyang, so this can only be done by the two virtuous brothers."

"As long as we have workers and guards, and then we can buy enough medicines, we can start producing all kinds of toiletries, and then as long as we find an opportunity to promote them, we can sell all kinds of toiletries at a good price, and then this is a lot of income."

Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have already experienced the benefits of those toiletries, and naturally know that these toiletries are not in good demand in Luoben, as long as there is a certain amount of publicity, they will definitely become in short supply.

Yuan Shao thought for a while, and said: "Big brother, I will handle the matter of purchasing medicinal materials, I happen to know a few herbal medicine merchants in Luoyang, their medicinal materials are very good, and with my friendship with them, I should be able to get a relatively cheap price, as for finding suitable workers and guards, it depends on our third brother." ”

Cao Cao smiled and said seriously: "The second brother is right, if you want to find the right manpower, then it depends on me Cao Mengde, I'm not a lieutenant in the north of Luoyang, I also have some connections in Luoyang City, I know a lot of trustworthy foremen, and I also know a lot of suitable martial artists, as long as it takes one day, I can find hundreds of suitable workers and guards for you, and the wages are definitely cheap and reliable, as for the purchase of a manor in the suburbs, I just know that there is a manor that is very suitable for workshops." ”
