Chapter 40: Where Does the Money Come From?

"Father-in-law Zhang, thank you very much - is the official position of the county guard different depending on the place, and the price will fluctuate?" The military attache hall, civil official hall, and title hall in the official office all let Zhou Yu visit all over, not that anyone who comes has this treatment, there is a saying that money can make ghosts grind. Zhou Yu thought that it was time to get down to business, so he was going to talk about the price of this county guard first.

"Yes - the price of the position of the county guard is 100,000 gold is the price set for large places such as the state, such as Bingzhou, Youzhou, Jizhou, Yanzhou, Yangzhou, Jingzhou, Yuzhou and other places The county guard is called Taishou, and more people call it the state pastor or the assassin (equivalent to a high-ranking official), and govern all the large counties and small counties within one; Under the state pastor is the Taishou, who governs the county; Under the Taishou is the prefectural order, which governs a city and the surrounding villages; It varies somewhat according to the size of the area under its jurisdiction and the degree of wealth and poverty. I don't know which place the county guard is in Childe's eye? Father-in-law Zhang patiently explained to Zhou Yu.

"Father-in-law Zhang, is there a vacancy in the Taishou of Lujiang County in Yuzhou? How much is the list price? I'm tired of Father-in-law Zhang to show me! Zhou Yu said where he was going, he was trying to find a way to leave Luoyang at the beginning, and the situation in Luoyang City was complicated, so he took the first step to communicate with his grandfather, and asked his grandfather to persuade his father to resign and leave Luoyang, but in the end, his father's official has not resigned for the time being, but the family returned to Lujiang's hometown on leave, and the goal was achieved. Then he used the convenient door opened by Liu Hong to buy an official for himself, preferably a place suitable for his own development on the ruling side, in view of the chaos after the Yellow Turban Uprising, Zhou Yu decided to use his hometown Lujiang County, Yuzhou as the foundation for development, and also protect his family.

"The position of Taishou of Lujiang County, Yuzhou was sold two years ago, but the selling price was 20,000 gold. If Childe wants to aspire to this place, he needs at least 30,000 gold. Zhang Gonggong flipped through the bamboo slips of the record, and the last item was written with the amount and date of the last sale.

"Grandpa Zhang, why is the gap so big?" Zhou Yu was a little puzzled, 20,000 gold is equivalent to 2 million taels of silver, although his income in more than a year is large, but it is a little difficult to get together so much money at once, not to mention that according to the eunuch in front of him, he needs to add another million taels of silver, and this matter can be stable.

"This son, don't you know that the person sitting in the position of the Taishou you fancy is the younger brother of Lord Wang Yun in the court, if there is such a relationship, you can only use the one with the highest price to seal his mouth. You should know that although Lord Wang Yun is a second-grade Zhongchang doctor, he has the title of first-grade master. Such a powerful person must not be able to provoke the son, right? Father-in-law Zhang whispered to Zhou Yu, that is, for the sake of money, otherwise he wouldn't want to do much.

"Okay - thank you, father-in-law! I'll go back and prepare the money first, and my father-in-law will laugh at this! Zhou Yu took out another golden bean and gave it to Father-in-law Zhang, and then took Zhou An out of the official office.

Along the way, he frowned, worried about where to get money! He also wants to take money from Biyue Xuan, but if he sells all the property, it is equivalent to killing chickens and taking eggs, this method is not feasible!

"Buy big and buy small - buy and leave!" This scream woke Zhou Yu up. Then there was the sound of dice hitting the cup.

The dice cup hit the ground, and there was silence on the table, waiting for the final result.

"Zhou An, which one do you think will win?" Zhou Yu had never played dice in his previous life, but he knew that gambling was ten gambles and nine cheats, and the key was in this deception.

"Young master, I think this is big-" Zhou An looked at the number of people who were overwhelmed, and he felt that it must be the person who was overwhelmed to win.

"Wrong - this small win, you look carefully at the person who opened the dice clock, and the moment the lid is opened, it is the time to come out." Zhou An looked at the place where Zhou Yu said, and sure enough, there was a hand behind the dice clock, and there was a small opening on the cover of the dice clock that could put two fingers in.

"Everybody, you're optimistic—one, two, three, six o'clock! The dealer kills - come, come, come, a small bet can support a family, a big gamble can make a fortune, buy a deal! ”

"Young master, are you going to open a casino?" Zhou An saw that a lot of money had entered the casino at once, and looked at Zhou Yu with understanding, he felt that the young master wanted to open a casino to make money, because Zhou Yu was obviously short of money when he bought the official just now, and he couldn't buy the official he wanted in his heart, otherwise he would have bought it with the young master's temper.

"Well-you're right, you're not right-the young master is very short of money now, but the money he earns from opening a casino is all money, since he wants to gamble, then the young master has to find a way to make a big gamble, and this person has to find someone to help! Let's go—go back to the house first, and I'll think about it later." ”

Zhou Yu laid a layer of rice paper on the table in the house, and he used a brush to sketch and draw a lot of things, and his brows were sometimes relaxed and sometimes locked. Suddenly, he thought of some talent shows in the future, and some people who swiped gifts for live broadcasts, if they added some peripheral gambling games, they should be able to make a lot of money.

First of all, he had to secretly discuss this matter with General He Jin, and he needed to use He Jin's authority to spread the news, so that every state and county could send people to participate in the competition, so as to increase the popularity of the competition; In the final round, open a huge outside game, and have a dark box operation to get a happy ending. It is very simple, but the operation is very complicated, personnel problems, accommodation problems, security problems and so on.

"Gongjin, what did you ask me to come here? Basically, according to your operation, it has come to this point, is there any difficulty? General He Jin sat on the side of the table in civilian clothes, drinking tea.

"General, you are really clever - I originally planned to buy a county guard, but how did you know that the price was so high!" Zhou Yu couldn't help but smile.

"You kid, this place is so elegant and secluded, it's not bad—you're just idle, isn't it a county guard with my help? Just open your mouth and do it, you mean you're short of money? But looking at your situation, it doesn't look like you're here to borrow money from me, it's like you're sending me money. Say, what the hell is the idea! "The general He Jin knew that Zhou Yu would not let himself come out if it was such a trivial matter as borrowing money, and there must be a big matter that required him to call the shots.

"There's a deal I want to make a deal with the general—I just wonder if the general is interested?" When Zhou Yu spoke, he was completely equal to the status of the general, and he couldn't tell that his superiors and subordinates were talking.

Seeing this, everyone must have doubts in their hearts, Zhou Yu got drunk and made a fuss at the school and scared He Jin's younger brother He Miao, and finally He Jin, He Miao, and the prince joined forces to deprive Zhou Yu of all his official positions. In fact, Zhou Yu wants to be a secret move of He Jin, so that people can see that Zhou Yu and He Jin are not all the way, so Zhou Yu will have the opportunity to invest in the acceptance range of the Shi clan's forces, and Zhou Yu will be able to give He Jin the strongest support at the critical moment. Zhou Yu proposed cooperation rather than subordination, and He Jin also needed someone to give advice for himself, so the two hit it off and directed this bitter plan, but only the two of them knew.

"What kind of sale? How much can you earn? "The general He Jin is very interested in making money, he was born as a poor child since he was a child, he learned a craft is to kill pigs, but he can't earn a few dollars all year round, and now he is a general, and the problem has not been changed, just keep making money, keep making money......

Zhou Yu whispered to He Jin, his head was a little foggy when he heard it, and there were a few words in his mind, Qinglou? Belle? Oiran? Merry genius?

The best thing to understand is that you must be able to make money, and you can make a lot of money-
