Zu Zhao knew that what he had to do now was to develop his potential as soon as possible. However, Liaodong can be used as his own springboard to compete in the world, thinking that Zu Zhao's hand moved to the counties of Liaodong. I felt that I needed to speed up the conquest of the counties in eastern Liaodong.

Zu Zhao walked outside the house and saw that it was getting late, so he went back to the room to rest. For a period of time after that, Zu Zhao developed according to the original plan. Among them, the fastest development is the construction of heavy cavalry, and often war horses are an important factor restricting the construction of cavalry, but for Zu Zhao and others in Liaodong, this problem is indeed the least problem.

The warhorses of the surrounding nomadic tribes and small countries are fully capable of lifting the cavalry mounts, and at the same time, this heavy cavalry team is several grades higher than the ordinary heavy cavalry. First of all, the casting process of Oyster Bay is too much beyond this era, and the forged iron armor can completely resist many attacks.

Then there is the big oyster bay, which has now made those sweet potatoes and potatoes that have nowhere to store them into fresh items such as vermicelli and cold skin. Although the cost is very low, for Zu Zhao, the price will not be reduced because of the low cost. For the current world world, Zu Zhao can confidently say that these things are definitely the only ones in the scorpion baba.

Therefore, processing potatoes and sweet potatoes, which are useless in the first place, and then selling them out of the canon, is almost the same, if not a non-capital business. Zu Zhao knew that things were rare and expensive, and pursued the theory that being rich and not making money was a bastard. Let the Chamber of Commerce position vermicelli and cool skin as high-end products.

The high-ranking officials and the rich in Luoyang City are all vying to buy. As for Gao Yuan, who knew the inside story of the Dao, he once asked Zu Zhao: "What if we process the useless potatoes and sweet potatoes like this, and sell them at such a high price, and no one buys them." ”

"We're taking the high-end route, and we're making rich people's money, so don't worry." Zu Zhao didn't care.

Gao Yuan was still worried and asked: "However, rich people are not fools, and those corrupt officials are even more human." Will they really buy it? ”

Zu Zhao continued: "So we need to supply in limited quantities, and at the same time, the higher the price, the better, so that they can buy not only things, but also face. Don't worry, even if no one buys it, we won't lose much, will we? ”

Now when Gao Yuan thinks of the scene at that time, he feels that he is a turtle, yes, it is the kind of stupid turtle that Zu Zhao often says. As Zu Zhao said, rich people are like being cheap, the higher the price, the more they will buy it, as if this can show their superiority.

During this time, what made Zu Zhao most satisfied was the development of the Chamber of Commerce, because the Chamber of Commerce is now all over the country, and even Meiyang City has a small range of activities of the Chamber of Commerce. As for protecting the Chamber of Commerce, it is the army reserve army under Zu Zhao, because it is a reserve army, so there are still immature places.

However, Zu Zhao knew that Lu Dao's blind training was not as effective as going to the battlefield after all, so he gave the reserve army the task of protecting the caravan, and there would always be robbers on the caravan transportation route, and in the current period of turmoil, sometimes even the remnants of the Yellow Turban Army would be encountered. It often doesn't take long for the reserve army to join the regular army.

"Liechen, do you know the news that the caravan is coming?" At this time, Lu Zhi came over, and after a period of cultivation in Da Oyster Bay, Lu Zhi is now radiant, giving people a feeling that Lao Ji is determined to be thousands of miles away.

Zu Zhao arched his hand and said, "Teacher, what you are talking about is the news from the caravan that went to Meiyang City to transport arrows, I already know the way." ”

"Alas~~ I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. Ma Teng turned out to be a rebel against the imperial court, it seems that the Han is really exhausted. "Recording sighs.

"Teacher doesn't have to be like this, in fact, Ma Teng's rebellion is more of Han Sui's reason in my opinion, and now Han Sui has brought the troops of Beigong and Bian Zhang under his command, and there are already two climates." Zu Zhao said, "As for the rebellion of Ma Teng and the others, I think the imperial court has forced them too hard recently. ”

"Well, there is news that Ma Teng and the others have been having a hard time since the Xiliang rebellion."

Zu Zhao listened to Lu Zhi's words and continued: "Actually, teacher, you think that the main leaders of the Xiliang Army's rebellion have all died in Huangquan now. In other words, in fact, the rest of the people will not be able to turn the sky after all. ”

Lu Zhi shook his head and said, "No, you have to understand that once a person's heart dies to one thing, then the power that bursts out is still very strong. ”

"Teacher, in fact, not everyone has the same patriotic heart as you. Compared with the most reluctant, Ma Teng and his ilk will still accept the conditions offered by the imperial court. Zu Zhao said lightly.

Looking at Lu Zhi's contemplative expression, Zu Zhao thought that in his memory, the Xiliang Rebellion should have started earlier, and it lasted a little longer, and the Ma Teng Rebellion also lasted for more than a year. But now there is still more than half a year before Dong Zhuo's rebellion, and according to Emperor Ling's physical condition, the time of Dong Zhuo's rebellion should coincide with history.

Thinking of this, Zu Zhao spoke again: "Teacher, you said that if the world is really in chaos and the Han family is facing collapse, will we send troops to the king of Qin or will we stand up as the king?" ”

"Hehe, since you yourself have already made a decision, then why do you have to ask me? The teacher is not a pedantic person. Just do what you want. Lu Zhi's expression softened a little and said.

Zu Zhao said with a smile: "Teacher, if you say that Luoyang will be in turmoil in the future, since the Han Dynasty is really hopeless. But after all, the emperor is still in the righteousness, so do we coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, or do we set ourselves up as kings? ”

"Have you thought about the consequences of both?" Lu Zhi looked at him fixedly and asked.

Zu Zhao nodded and said: "If I coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, then I can only be a supreme minister, and I can't ascend to the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but I have the means to restrain the princes." ”

"And if you set yourself up as a king, you will be justified, but you will be constrained for a long time." Lu Zhi said.

"Yes." Zu Zhao nodded heavily and said.

Lu Zhi smiled: "Are you so unconfident in yourself? Could it be that you don't even have the courage to do so? ”

Zu Zhao smiled: "Sure enough, the teacher is still powerful, yes, I believe that if I don't coerce the Son of Heaven, I can also lay down a piece of the world." ”

"General." At this time, Zhang Yu walked over and said.

Zu Zhao smiled: "What's the matter, looking at your appearance, is there anything good?" ”

"See for yourself." Zhang Pre handed the note to Zu Zhaodao.

After Zu Zhao opened the note and read it, Da Lu smiled and said, "It's done!" Then he handed the note to Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi opened the note and saw that it read: "Zhang Rang has been living in the palace for a long time recently, and Emperor Ling is about to set up his second son, Liu Xie." Yuan Shao had a secret conversation with He Jin, and He Jin wanted to summon Dong Zhuo back to Beijing to fight against Zhang Rang. ”

Zu Zhao smiled: "It seems that our General He is about to lose his seat." ”

"If Emperor Ling really makes his second son Liu Xie the emperor, then the He family will definitely lose power, and He Jinxiang will let his nephew ascend to the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and he must find help to deal with the forbidden army in Luoyang City." Lu Zhi pondered.

"But I'm afraid that General He's abacus is not very good, and Dong Zhuo is not so good-looking, I'm afraid that the most embarrassing is just to make a wedding dress for others." Zu Zhao said with a smile.

"And what do you have in mind?" Lu Zhidao.

"Zhang Pre, pass on my order, the caravan will draw out sixty percent of the reserve army and rush back to Liaodong, and the other armies will also return to Liaodong to gather." Zu Zhao said.

"No!" Zhang Pre-received the order and turned to leave.

"Teacher, I'll go find Wen Ji now." Zu Zhao said.

"Don't worry, let's talk about your detailed plan first, and see what use I have as an old man."

Zu Zhao sorted out his thoughts a little and said: "In this way, since Dong Zhuo is about to enter Beijing, it is bound that Luoyang will enter an era of turmoil. But the importance of this place in Luoyang is probably well known. ”

"The princes will definitely not look at He Jin and Dong Zhuo like this, and they can't even drink soup when they eat meat." Lu Zhi continued Zu Zhao's words.

Although Zu Zhao knew that according to the development of history, He Jin's ending was already doomed, and the temporary winner was Dong Zhuo. But these words could not be said to Lu Zhi.

So Zu Zhao continued: "That's right, so the princes of the world will inevitably gather around Luoyang. At this time, there is no need for us to intervene, because compared with some county guards or state pastors, there is still a gap in our strength. ”

Lu Zhi said: "Another point is that if you go, you may become a pawn of some people, which is even more unacceptable." ”

"That's right, so we'll set our sights on the land of Liaodong. When the princes of the world rise together, we take the opportunity to control this Liaodong in our own hands, which is undoubtedly a deep foundation for the future. ”

"I'm just afraid that some people won't let you get your wish." Lu Zhi said quietly.

Zu Zhao smiled mysteriously: "Teacher, people, after all, they will be driven by interests." Who doesn't have a mediocre man who doesn't have a pamper? ”

"You still want to use the method against the left striker?" Lu Zhi asked.

Zu Zhao nodded and said, "That's right, first of all, we are actually not so conspicuous in the eyes of some of the Great Momentum Princes now, and for most of the strategists, we are not something that must be won in the near future. ”

"Even to say, the amount of strength you have announced now can only be a chicken rib for some people, and you can get it easily, and you don't force it if you can't get it." Lu Zhi said.

Zu Zhao nodded and said: "Yes, so the most important thing for us at the moment is to secretly accumulate strength, when the princes gather in Kanto, it is the time when we fight for Liaodong." ”

"But there's one more critical thing to the process."

"System" Zu Zhao said firmly at Lu Zhi.

"It seems that you already have a clear strategy, and the rest is the execution of tactics, if there is anything you need me and Brother Huangfu, you can just come to the two of us, let's go." Lu Zhi waved his hand.

Zu Zhao bowed, and then left. walked towards Cai Wenji's house, and at the same time thought in his heart, Lao Tzu, as a person who has crossed over, of course has a golden finger, how can he not see through this small situation. In fact, what I didn't say is that the Chamber of Commerce is also my top priority.

Zu Zhao didn't talk to Lu Zhi about the Chamber of Commerce, mainly because he felt that Lu Zhi still couldn't fully understand his idea of sanctioning the princes through the economy. As a person who has crossed over, Zu Zhao knows that when a chamber of commerce can enrich the world, with his own military support, he can defeat the princes of one side more easily, and only with money can he have an army, which is an unchanging truth for thousands of years, and the army is piled up with money.

Thinking that Zu Zhao had already walked to Cai Wenji's room, he just happened to see Quan Zhiyu.
