Chapter 119: Asking for Money

"In Qingzhou, although the initial investment is only 3,000 gold, but it accounts for about five layers of Qingzhou, after development, the current market value has reached 8,000 gold, and the daily income is about 100 gold, the same, if you create expenses, there are also 40 gold. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"If you want to build Qingzhou as good as Yanzhou, judging from the current price difference, you still need at least 32,000 gold to support, even if the adults are so open, then we can simply borrow 30,000 gold, although we don't earn a lot, but each of us only earns about 10 gold, so it's okay!"

Although Zhou Yu only said the general figures, Cao Cao knew that all this was true, and the current economies of Qingzhou and Yanzhou could be said to be all in Wang Sen's hands.

This is also the reason why Cao Cao was confused for a while before, and would listen to the strategists around him to suppress Wang Sen, in fact, he didn't want to in his heart, but when anyone heard these numbers, his heart would be cold, and Cao Cao really felt like crying without tears now.

Now Zhou Yu wants to borrow 30,000 gold, isn't this asking for Cao Cao's life? How could he have so much money, and he had only earned more than 8,000 gold in business with Wang Sen over the years, originally he planned to take all of this out, so that the family of the palace would be moved, hoping to ease the relationship between the two mansions, but now it seems that this money is not enough to stuff people's teeth, and Cao Cao is also in a cold sweat at this time.

But Liu Ming, who was sitting on the main seat, was happy in his heart, and he didn't expect that the people of the palace would borrow 30,000 gold as soon as he opened his mouth, you must know that the total market value of Yanzhou and Qingzhou is only more than 50,000 gold, so where can Cao Cao raise money?

And Zhou Yu was not wrong, if he really wanted to build other areas in Cao Cao's hands, he would indeed need so much money.

Liu Ming also took the opportunity to challenge Cao Cao, "Lord Cao, Gongjin is right, if you want to build other regions, you will need at least 30,000 gold, this is still based on the brotherly relationship between Lord Cao and Lord Wang, otherwise no one will do this thankless thing." ”

Of course, Cao Cao knew Liu Ming's thoughts, but it was really difficult for him to fight back now, because this was indeed a fact, and if he wanted to develop other regions, 30,000 gold was really not much.

But how can things have a priority, although it is 30,000 gold, but it can also be invested in installments, take your time, but Cao Cao must not say this.

The first is because the relationship between the two governments is really poor now, and if it continues to be rigid, something will really happen.

The second is also because if you invest in installments, just like Liu Ming said, the subordinates of the palace basically can't make any money, they are just busy in vain, everyone will definitely not agree, and now Cao Cao doesn't know what to do?

Wang Sen saw Cao Cao's embarrassed appearance, and knew what was going on, so he hurriedly came out to play a round...

"Big brother, this matter is not in a hurry, aren't we going to send troops to Xuzhou? When we get back, we'll talk about it, what do you think?"

Cao Cao wiped the sweat from his forehead, and just wanted to take this opportunity to agree, but Guo Tu of the palace took the first step and said: "My lord, what we said is exactly the money we borrowed from Lord Cao before sending troops, you must know that when you return after sending troops, it will not be this price..."

"Do you think, no matter whether we take it back to Xuzhou or not, the cost will be even greater at that time."

"If we win, we will take back the money for the development of Xuzhou, and if we lose the war, the loss of the troops this time is also a sum of money, and then we will have to borrow from Lord Cao, how can Lord Cao afford it, so the 30,000 gold is only used before the war."

"Also, although we are all out on the expedition, but adults don't have to worry about manpower problems, we have already been ready, the affairs of the palace have Mrs. in the formation, plus Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao should have no problem on the side."

"As for the development of infrastructure projects in various places, Cai Dazi and Qiao Guolao are also taking care of them, so we can go out with peace of mind."

Wang Sen didn't expect that everyone had prepared everything, and they also beat out their father-in-law and Qiao Guolao.

You must know that Cai Yong is very close to those people in the imperial party, and he has become more and more disagreeable with Cao Cao's approach recently, especially Cao Cao's recent suppression of the four old ministers around Emperor Xian, Cai Yong is really furious, saying that he has no king, and he is so angry that he is angry.

Another is Qiao Guolao, before Wang Sen also mobilized him to persuade Cai Yong to keep him away from those people in the imperial party, but what happened recently made him also disgusted with Cao Fu, and Zhou Yu was Wang Sen's general, at this time Qiao Guolao also changed his attitude, fully supported Wang Fu, and suppressed Cao Fu.

At this time, everyone still pulled the two out, isn't this adding to the chaos? But Wang Sen couldn't say it, after all, these two people had an extraordinary relationship with him, and Wang Sen was speechless at this time....

And Liu Ming's eyes lit up, and now he understood what was going on? What kind of borrowing money is this, but a trap!

Let's not talk about whether Cao Cao has 30,000 gold, even if he does, he doesn't dare to take out this money, there are really too many variables in it, and it is a question of whether to give it or not.

gave the money, and all the things left by Chen from then on had to look at Cai Yong's face.

Think about it, 30,000 gold is all Cao Cao, if you want to get the money back, you can only complete the project quickly, although Cai Yong has this ability, but people really want to drag it out and you can't do it, even Wang Sen can't say anything, and Cai Yong and the imperial party are so close, if someone puts Cao Cao in small shoes, it will be a big deal, and the consequences are really unimaginable...

If you don't give money, then Cao Cao's prestige will be gone, and the relationship between Cao's Mansion and the Wangfu will be even more stiff, and it will not be far from splitting.

Give money in installments, that's even more not, the people of the palace have already said in front, and the amount of money after that will be very huge, not at all what he Cao Cao can bear, and at the same time give them the opportunity to sell their property, which is also what Cao Cao is most afraid of, once the palace withdraws assets, then Cao Cao will not be able to feed the people in his hands at all, and Cao Cao will be instantly beaten back to the prototype.

Liu Ming secretly sighed that it was a poisonous strategy, Cao Cao was in trouble now, even if Wang Sen wanted to help him, he couldn't help him, and at the same time, Liu Ming also knew that this was an opportunity, a rare opportunity to pull Wang Sen into his hands.

"Lord Cao, even if the generals of the royal mansion say so, you won't lose your trust with others, right?"

"If Lord Cao is really embarrassed, we are not unreasonable, then the princess's mansion will come forward, and we will raise the funds ourselves." Liu Ming said there.

Of course, Cao Cao understood what Liu Ming meant, and he was really afraid of something, it seemed that Liu Ming really wanted to split the palace.

How could Cao Cao let Liu Ming Ruyi, took out the true character of the hero, and said loudly: "I Cao Mengde can have today, I can't do without the support of Brother Sen, if I can't even believe Brother Sen, then I am really ashamed of the friendship between us, even if it is difficult, this 30,000 gold I Cao Mengde is out, and Wang Sen's brother is also my brother, I also believe that everyone will do their best." ”

"I'm sorry, I still have something to do, and I will bring the 30,000 gold at noon tomorrow." After speaking, Cao Cao no longer stopped and got up to retire and left the palace.

Looking at the back of Cao Cao's departure, Wang Sen was very moved in his heart, and finally Cao Cao chose a more secure way to solve the matter, although there are great variables in this, but Cao Cao's meaning is obvious, Cao Fu is at fault first, this time the matter is to apologize to everyone, but Cao Fu and Wang Fu are fighting, it is only our own business, and others do not want to interfere.

Wang Sen glanced at all the generals, shook his head impatiently, and didn't complain about anything, just said: "This time, everyone should be angry, let's eat, don't be stunned!" ”

"And you, princess, no one robbed you this time, you should eat more."

Wang Sen's generals laughed one by one and began to enjoy the seafood.

Only Princess Liu Ming was a little unsavory, it was a pity to miss such a good opportunity, and at the same time he also heard the meaning of Wang Sen's words, and muttered in a low voice there, "That's 30,000 gold, do you mean to make it up?" Maybe he won't be able to come up with that much money tomorrow? ”

Although everyone heard it, no one paid any attention to it, just lowered their heads and ate, and everything could only wait for tomorrow's results.

After eating breakfast, Liu Ming was not in the mood to stay any longer, and at the same time left the palace with a copy of the recital.

Wang Sen opened a glance, it turned out that Liu Ming had promised him before, and arranged all the generals who had not yet come out of the palace in the princess's mansion, although some people were only deputy generals, but Wang Sen knew that through this battle of Xuzhou, everyone would be improved, and this was just to give everyone a name.

Wang Sen sighed, now that all the people of the palace have entered the princess's mansion, they are powerful and powerful, if they fight with the people of the Cao Mansion again, then I really don't imagine what the result will be?

In addition, the relationship between Princess Liu Ming and Lord Cao is getting worse and worse, what can I do, fortunately, I will go on the expedition tomorrow, I hope that through this time, everyone can calm down, and when they meet again, everyone will be able to get along as before.

In this way, everyone was busy with their own work, and the day passed quickly.

Early the next morning, Princess Liu Ming came to the palace very early, and the personnel of the palace also gathered at the first time.

Liu Ming looked at the generals of the palace who were all dressed in armor and ready to go, and he was extremely proud in his heart, and then said: "I believe that everyone understands the criticality of this battle of Xuzhou, which is an important battle to sweep the Central Plains and open the door to the south, so I hope that everyone will fight with the spirit of twelve points to complete this battle, and then I will greet you on behalf of the civil and military officials of the court, and achieve your immortal feats. ”

As soon as Liu Ming's words were finished, Wang Sen on the side also spoke: "The princess is right, this battle is very important to us, although the person who guards the city is Lu Bu, who is known as the first in the world, but I believe that everyone here will break this myth, the so-called sword is what it means, only I don't break it, let all the people in the world see our strength!" ”

The enthusiasm of the generals of the royal palace was ignited in an instant, and everyone became excited one by one, and Huang Zhong also said on behalf of everyone: "Princess, my lord, just rest assured, we have already made preparations and will not return if we do not break the oath of Xuzhou." ”

"Okay, that's it, the three armies obey the order!" Wang Sen shouted, and then mobilized his troops,

"Gongming, where is Zhou Cang?"

Hearing Wang Sen call his name, Xu Huang and Zhou Cang immediately walked out of the crowd, came to the center of the hall, clenched their fists and said, "In"

Wang Sen looked at the two of them, threw out a talisman, and said: "Xu Huang is the main one, Zhou Cang is the deputy, and I will give you five thousand soldiers and horses to serve as the left forward." ”

"It's my lord!" The two of them took the talisman and retreated.

Then Wang Sen began to distribute again...

"Gan Ning, where is Su Fei?"

"In!"

"Gan Ning is the main one, Su Fei is the deputy, give you five thousand soldiers and horses, and serve as the right forward."

"Yes!"

"Gao Lan, where is Zhang Hu?"

"In"

"Gao Ran is the main one, Zhang Hu is the deputy, give you 5,000 soldiers and horses, and be responsible for pressing and delivering grain and grass."

"Yes"

"The others will go with me..."

In this way, Wang Sen arranged everything, and when he was about to leave, Cao Cao finally appeared in the palace.

Although he also participated in this expedition, everyone knew that this was a matter of the princess's mansion, and Cao Cao's visit was just a meaning, at most, he was responsible for the supervision of the army, so everyone didn't have too many ideas.

However, he came this time, and he also brought a large number of boxes, it seems that the matter of borrowing money has really been done!

"Brother Sen, I'm embarrassed, because it's too late to raise money, I hope Brother Sen's forgiveness." Cao Cao's face was impatient.

"Big brother, don't say that, it's good if you can come, we just finished it."

"By the way, are you still raising money?" Wang Sen asked...

"Brother Sen, I have something to talk to you about, 30,000 gold is really too much, I really can't make it up for a while, I only raised 8,000 gold in one day yesterday, all here."

"The rest of the money will arrive in three days at the shortest, I hope Brother Sen, you can help me persuade my generals and give me some more time."

Wang Sen also frowned, but he still agreed.

"Big brother, don't worry, I know what to do."

Wang Sen didn't even think about it, and immediately turned around and said to his soldiers: "Brother Cao has already raised money, but he can't transport it all for a while, only 8,000 gold has been brought on behalf of him, and the rest will be available within three days!" ”

Wang Sen can ignore this matter, but it doesn't mean that these generals will also ignore it, this is related to the future of Cao Mansion and the Royal Mansion, and everyone also secretly thinks about the pros and cons.

It didn't take long for Jia Xu, Liu Ye, Kuai Yue, Guo Tu and Zhou Yu to react at once, something is not right, if the Cao Mansion really knew that it was wrong, and everyone fully supported it, they could raise at least 20,000 gold, but now they only took out 8,000 gold, it seems that the people of Cao Mansion are still calculating, and at the same time guessing their approach, that is, dragging.

Eight thousand gold, although it is not much, but it is not a lot, and the face is passable, and after Wang Sen leaves, it will depend on Cai Yong's performance.

If Cai Yong really builds with his heart, Cao Fu will also send the money, (of course, it will be in batches)

But if Cai Yong is bewitched by the imperial party, then the Cao Mansion will also drag this money for various reasons, anyway, the people in the palace have left Chen Liu, and they will not be affected by the time, but Cao Cao needs to say a few more good words in front of Wang Sen, play some bitter tricks, and win Wang Sen's sympathy, which is really a good move!

Jia Xu, Liu Ye, Kuai Yue, Guo Tu and Zhou Yu glanced at each other, and they also knew how to fight this battle of Xuzhou, didn't they think that they couldn't pay attention to Chen Liu's affairs on the battlefield, then let you see our ability!
