"Father, although our Yuan family was a wealthy family of the fourth and third princes in the Han Dynasty, it is different now."

"Since our father ascended the throne, we have completely broken with the Han Dynasty, but those who follow us are not necessarily."

"First, they don't dare to mess around because they are currently under the rule of their father, and secondly, their father's power is strong, and they are currently one of the strongest princes."

"But since Zhang Xun lost to Lu Bu in Huaibei, and Cao Jun and Liu Biao raised troops against their father, the situation has reversed, and many people are not optimistic that their father can block their attack."

When Yuan Yao said this, Yuan Shu's face had already changed.

He wanted to refute, but what Yuan Yao said was not a lie, even if Yuan Shu was still empty-eyed, he could feel that his control over Yangzhou was not as good as before.

Although it is not as half-hearted as the monarch and the minister, it is also a small boat on the ocean, crumbling.

"The reason why these people haven't rebelled with their father is purely because their father has not yet reached the end of his rope, if Cao Jun kills him, I'm afraid that these people will be the first to jump out to deal with his father."

"Therefore, if the sons want to share the worries of their father, they must gather these people, how to bring them together, it is natural to use enough benefits."

Erchen has calculated that as long as the number of miners keeps up with the output of honeycomb coal, the output of honeycomb coal can be increased in a short period of time. But production alone is not enough, but there is no sales. ”

"The population of Shouchun City has reached the limit, and it is already the limit to be able to consume 20,000 pieces of honeycomb coal a day, and any more honeycomb coal produced will be sold to the surrounding counties."

"If you want to sell honeycomb coal, you must cooperate with the local family, so Erchen does this, firstly, he can win over these people and continue to support my Yuan family, and secondly, he can also use their local power to promote honeycomb coal and expand the business of honeycomb coal."

Yuan Yao's words were all the truth, and even Yuan Shu, who was frowning, was persuaded by him.

Yuan Shu nodded solemnly.

"My son has a point! It was for the father that did not think of this. ”

Yuan Shu could understand that Yuan Yao was not alarmist, this battle, if it weren't for Yuan Yao's desperate efforts to block the attack of Cao's army in Zhuxian, Cao Cao's army of 30,000 could be killed in Huainan, endangering Shouchun, and even shaking Yuan Shu's rule.

Once something happens to Shouchun, Yuan Shu's throne is estimated to last less than a year, and it will be over.

"Father, it is precisely because of this that the sons and daughters gave the shares of Bagongshan Honeycomb Coal Co., Ltd. to these people, they are all smart people, and for the sake of interests, they can temporarily gather around their father."

With Yuan Yao's words, Yuan Shu finally understood Yuan Yao's good intentions.

looked at his son for a while, and felt a little guilty, he also thought that the reason why Yuan Yao didn't give him the shares of this honeycomb coal company was because Yuan Yao was still angry, angry that he gave him food at the beginning, not much reason.

Or maybe Yuan Yao was angry with him for depriving him of the sullenness of the crown prince.

But Yuan Yao didn't think like this at all, which made Yuan Shu feel a little guilty, he treated this son like this, and his son still thought about him everywhere.

"Yao'er, only now do you understand that you are the smartest of the many sons of your father, and you are really blind to being a father before, and the position of the prince should still be up to you."

I don't know if it's guilty, Yuan Shu suddenly told Yuan Yao about the prince again, which made Yuan Yao stunned.

But he hurriedly refused.

"Father, no."

Hearing Yuan Yao's refusal, Yuan Shu frowned, and was a little surprised.

"What? Could it be that Yao'er doesn't want to be this prince, or is she still angry with her father, angry that I abolished your crown prince in the first place? ”

"How come, father, the son has never been angry, but firstly, the son does not care about the position of the crown prince, and secondly, it has not been long since my father deposed me as the crown prince, and now he wants to re-establish me as the prince, isn't that the order changed overnight, what does this make the civil and military officials in the court think?"

"Besides, now my father still needs to rely on these people to share his father's worries, and he really can't offend them too much."

Yuan Yao is indeed not very interested in this prince of the dead country, what he wants is to develop his own power, if he becomes the prince, wouldn't he always stay in Shouchun Prison Country, where will he have the opportunity to do his own things.

So when Yuan Shu mentioned re-appointing him as the crown prince, he was naturally a hundred unwilling.

Now that he has conquered Runan, he can take the opportunity to annex Lujiang, and when the time is ripe, with the help of the troops of these two counties, it is enough to compete with the world's heroes.

"What Yao'er said has some truth, but recently you have done a lot of things that satisfy your father, if you don't reward you, your father will not be happy."

Seeing that Yuan Shu really wanted to reward himself, Yuan Yao took the opportunity to say his thoughts.

"If the father really wants to reward the child, then the father might as well canonize the child as Runan Taishou."

"Oh? Does Yao'er want to be the Taishou of Runan? ”

"Runan borders the Cao army, this time after the child defeated Runan, he ordered the soldiers and horses to join the Runan, the purpose is also to monitor the Cao army, as long as Runan can be stabilized, it is impossible for Cao Cao to lead the army south to attack Huainan."

"The child is willing to defend the territory for his father and defend against the Cao army!"

What Yuan Yao said was a little impassioned, but for a while, Yuan Shu was also born, a little heroic.

"Okay, since my son has this heart, my father naturally can't refuse you!"

"The vacated Runan Taishou will be served by you!"

Yuan Shu easily handed over the position of Runan Taishou to Yuan Yao.

Not only that, but Yuan Shu thought about it slightly.

He continued to speak to Yuan Yao.

"Defending against the Cao army is not a trivial matter, with the few people in your hand, it is difficult to block the full attack of the Cao army, so let's do it, for the father, you can mobilize the surrounding soldiers and horses."

Yuan Shu may be worried that Yuan Yao encountered that kind of thing before.

Once the battle with Cao's army began, if there was no support from soldiers and horses, Yuan Yao might not have such good luck next time.

Therefore, Yuan Shu allowed Yuan Yao to personally mobilize the surrounding soldiers and horses without asking anyone for help.

First, to ensure that Yuan Yao has no worries about his life, and second, this can also defend against Cao Jun's attack, for Yuan Shu, no matter how you look at it, it is not a loss.

Don't look at just letting Yuan Yao mobilize the surrounding soldiers and horses, in fact, this power is quite large, Yuan Shu in order to defend the Cao army, more than 50,000 troops were deployed around Runan, these people and horses, Yuan Yao can be mobilized, and the real power has greatly increased all of a sudden.
