NO.269 Zhou Gongjin's checks and balances

Although he bought a lot of linen cloth and returned with a full load, Lu Su felt a little bad in his heart, and Jingzhou for more than a year, this business has led to a steady stream of Jiangdong money and grain to Jingnan, although it is not enough to hurt Jiangdong at the moment, but if this goes on for a long time, Jingxiang's wealth is afraid that it will be the best in the world.

It's just that Lu Su also knows that the things sold by Pang Shanmin can't allow him to refuse, and now the Jiangdong family has become accustomed to the bamboo paper from Jingnan, the classics, from thrift to luxury, from luxury to thrift, if Pang Shanmin cuts off the supply of bamboo paper, the Jiangdong family is afraid that it will have to be entangled with him Lu Su constantly.

This is the dignified Yangmou, Lu Su returned to the ferry, after accepting the cloth, he sighed in his heart, now the rise of Jingxiang has been unavoidable, if the army is strong today, Cao Cao in the north can be the leader, if you talk about Yin Fu, the Jingxiang of the people of Pang Shan, should not let go.

And what advantages does Jiangdong have now? Is it dangerous to the river?

The surging river can protect Jiangdong for several years, but the danger of this big river has also curbed the pace of Jiangdong's foreign attack, recalling the events of the previous year, Lu Su couldn't help but regret it, knowing that today, when Zhou Lang raised the army a year ago, he should be bitter in front of Sun Quan.

Now that Jing Xiang is being cut down again, it has become a fool's dream, Jing Xiang is changing, changing with each passing day, I am afraid that now it is Sun Quan who supports Zhou Yu and attacks Jing Xiang, and it is difficult to win a big victory.

Thinking of this, Lu Su had an idea, boarded the big ship, and instructed the general on the ship: "Don't return to Wu County for the time being, go to Chaisang first." ”

All the way to the boat, Lu Su to Chaisang, ordered the entourage to bring two pieces of cloth, and went straight to the governor's mansion, although Zhou Yu has ignored government affairs, but still lives in the governor's mansion, Lu Su thinks, this Jingxiang cloth sale, should also let Zhou Yu know, maybe with Zhou Yu's wisdom, you can get a glimpse of one or two.

Entering the mansion, Lu Su heard the sound of the desolate piano, and Zhou Yu's singing voice was like a crane, and Lu Su couldn't help but be gloomy when he heard it.

Depressed, nothing more than that.

Just for a moment, as soon as the sound of the piano stopped, Zhou Yu saw Lu Su standing in front of the hall, and couldn't help laughing: "Zijing is not in Wu County to help Zhongmou, what are you doing here?" ”

"I went to Changsha before, and Gongjin was entangled with that merchant before the end of the year...... Lu Su sighed lightly, but Zhou Yu smiled and said: "That guy is not a merchant now, he is already a general in charge of the land of Erzhou, and the princes are like this, and the mountain people can be regarded as unique." ”

Lu Su nodded when he heard this, and said to Zhou Yu: "When I heard the impassioned meaning of Gongjin's piano, could it be that Gongjin intends to return to the court?" ”

"I didn't mean that." When Zhou Yu heard this, he restrained his smile and said: "Now that Zhongmou is not embarrassed, why do you need Zhou to work hard?" ”

"Gong Jin!" Lu Su couldn't help but sigh when he heard this: "It's good that Zhongmou is also our lord, or there is a mistake, and those who are courtiers should be considerate." ”

"Zhou has already understood......," Zhou Yu said, smiled slightly, and said to Lu Su: "Now that Zhou is far away from the court, it is to let Zhongmou act with ease, since Zhongmou is afraid of Zhou, after he controls the courtiers, it is not too late for Zhou to return to the court." ”

Seeing that Lu Su still wanted to say more, Zhou Yu sighed: "Zhou may not be on good terms with Zhongmou, but for the sake of Bo Fu, Zhou can tolerate everything, Zijing doesn't need to worry, there are two Zhang in charge of government affairs, and I Jiangdong can't be in chaos." ”

Lu Su nodded slightly when he heard this, and sighed lightly: "It's just that now Cao Cao in the north, opening up the territory and expanding the territory, with the current situation, sweeping Hebei is just around the corner, then the young son of the Yuan family, how can he be Cao Cao's opponent, and Pang Shanmin has newly acquired Yizhou, and its rise has become inevitable, the general trend of the princes is like a boat sailing against the current, I Jiangdong does not advance but retreats, how can Lu not worry in his heart?" ”

When Zhou Yu heard this, he also thought that if Sun Quan didn't work hard now, in a few years, he would be left behind by these two princes, and then Jiangdong would be weakened, and he would rely on the danger of the river, and how long would he be able to compete with these two heroes?

It's just that Zhou Yu doesn't intend to, and now he accepts Lu Su's admonition and returns to the court, Zhou Yu knows in his heart that this Sun Quan's rights are quite heavy, rather than returning to the court and being feared by Sun Quan, it is better to go out again when Jiangdong is weakened and turn the tide...... This Jiangdong did not strangle Erpang last year, it has lost the first hand, and now the general trend of the world is gradually becoming a foregone conclusion, if Jiangdong rashly raises troops, it is asking for hardship.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu simply stopped thinking about this troublesome thing, and said to Lu Su: "If the son respects this and wants to be a lobbyist, I am afraid that he will return in vain." ”

Seeing this, Lu Su knew that it was useless to say more, so he ordered someone to send the cloth and said to Zhou Yu: "Gongjin can take a look at this cloth." ”

Zhou Yu was slightly stunned when he heard this, then looked at the cloth on the case, and said to Lu Su: "It's just ordinary linen." ”

"This cloth was purchased from Jingnan." After Lu Su said that, Zhou Yu couldn't help laughing and said, "Your Lu family is trading with the mountain people again?" It's just that the things purchased this time have made Zhou Mouzeng insightful, this kind of linen cloth is also available in Jiangdong, what did Zijing do when he bought him Jingxiang? ”

"The governor of Zhou may not know the price of this Jiangdong cloth, ordinary linen cloth, fifty yuan per foot, and in the people of Napang Mountain, one hundred dollars can get three feet." When Lu Su heard this, he couldn't help but sigh: "Lu doesn't know the reason, so he came to find Gongjin to solve this confusion." ”

Zhou Yu heard this, he was speechless for a long time, Lu Su saw Zhou Yu frowning and thinking hard, and did not bother, after a long time, Zhou Yu's eyes lit up, and said to Lu Su: "Maybe the new spinning skills of the Pang mountain people have greatly reduced the labor cost." ”

Lu Su was stunned when he heard this, and after a while, he suddenly realized that he said to Zhou Yu: "That's right! But when buying and selling, the Pang mountain people will never lose money, and let me Jiangdong get cheap out of thin air, but this matter is quite difficult in Lu, Jingnan is cheap, Lu bought it, and there is also a profit, but when I think that this thing was created by the mountain people, Lu always has some resentment in his heart. ”

When Zhou Yu heard this, he was also quite distressed and said: "The key is that Jing Xiang can rely on this thing to earn my Jiangdong money and food, and this matter is upright, and I Jiangdong can't avoid it...... Even if you don't buy Jingxiang cloth, if the people know that Jingnan cloth is cheap, they will also compete to buy it. ”

"The way of a businessman will only be a profit...... Lu Su frowned when he heard this, and said to Zhou Yu: "That Gongjin thinks that this cloth business, will Lu Mou continue to do it with this Pang Shanmin in the future?" ”

"Zijing doesn't do it, but someone else does." When Zhou Yu heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Is it Zijing's turn to avoid this matter?" It's just that Zhou thinks that the mountain people can't be allowed to have a smooth ride, and they can get all the benefits! In Zhou's view, after Zijing went back, when he hoarded more cotton and linen, when the Pang mountain people wanted to buy, he would sit on the ground and start the price, if Jing Xiang still wanted to spin cloth, he would not get it out of thin air, this raw material still had to be used, and the benefits of the world could not be let him do it alone! ”
