Geng Bao regretted it a little. His words undoubtedly exposed too many problems, but he had already said that it was difficult to stop the water. He did not make any excuses and retorted calmly. "In terms of insidiousness, the people of Ruying are the leader, and the people of Jizhou are willing to give up the disadvantage."

Guo Jia laughed. The servant brought a tea stove with charcoal and put it in water. Seeing that he was unfamiliar with his skills, Guo Jia waved his hand and changed his waiter. Seeing Guo Jia's waiter skillfully fiddling with the tea stove and teapot, Geng Bao was neither convinced nor curious.

"Now, it's popular to drink tea in Central Plains?"

"Wine can help you liven up, tea can clear your spirit, and everyone gets the right thing. I talk to you about business, and a word of gains and losses will make tens of millions of profits. How can you get drunk? Of course, it is to drink tea to make yourself sober. When the business is negotiated, it will not be too late to drink and celebrate."

Geng Bao's heart moved. With a profit of tens of millions, the business is really not small. It seems that Guo Jia came with sincerity. He smiled and nodded. "The sacrificial wine is right. I will also be a good example and taste the taste of this tea."

Guo Jia did not rush to speak, stared at the waiter and prepared the tea set, checked the water again, and found out that it was the drinking water to be used, he couldn't help but frown and asked the waiter to get some good water. The waiter responded and turned around to give instructions. Geng Bao was puzzled, but he didn't ask, just watching Guo Jia toss. He knew in his heart that Guo Jia was sucking his appetite. If he was anxious, Guo Jia would lead him away.

Guo Jia was busy for a while and turned around and said to Geng Bao: "If you want to make the most money, you are naturally buying a boat to go to sea, followed by this glass. In addition to these two, there is another one, but it is probably not easy to do."

"You might as well tell me the wine."

"ordnance."

"Arms?" Geng Bao's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but lean forward, and asked tentatively: "Can military weapons be sold?"

"It can be sold, but it is strictly controlled, with high prices and small quantities. People who don't have some strength cannot afford it."

“How tall is it?”

"The latest number of armors." Guo Jia raised one hand and shook his head. "And the quantity is very small, whether you can buy it depends on your luck."

"Fifty gold?"

"five hundred."

Geng Bao's face twitched twice, and he forced himself to stop scolding. Five hundred gold pieces of armor? Why don't you rob it? The quality of armor in Nanyang is good, but it is not as good as a hundred times worth? A set of general armor on the market is only about hardware. Even if it is made of gold, a set of armor will not be worth five hundred gold. "Then I really can't afford it. Not many of you can afford such expensive armor, right?"

Guo Jia smiled but refused to answer. "I heard that my uncle was on the grassland. Have you come back?"

"not yet."

"I haven't come back for so long. Could it be that I've died on the grassland?"

Geng Bao was speechless. Who did the Guo family come out? Is there anyone who said this? Even if he and Guo Tu are not in harmony, he can't say such bad words. "There are many tribes to go, so it's normal to waste some time. Maybe it's on the way back now."

"After leaving so many tribes, does Yuan Xiansi still have money to fight? Those barbarians are very greedy. In the past, the court had to give each reward of 190 million yuan, but now the court does not give it money. It is not easy for Yuan Xiansi to take out so much money. Even if the Yuan family stole a lot of good things from the palace, they couldn't help spending it like this. Oh, by the way, I heard that the Yuan family and those barbarians married many daughters to the grassland, but it's true?"

"It's not new to the Han family's marriage. Didn't the eldest princess just marry you, Marquis Wu?" Geng Bao specially emphasized the word "marquis Wu".

"You know the title of marquis? Then you must also know the fact that marquis Wu was ordered to govern the eight states. I said, if you can persuade Yuan Tan to bow down and surrender to peace in the world, this is a great achievement. Marquis Wu will definitely not treat you badly. In just a few years, your Julu Geng family will become the first family in Jizhou."

"I dare not." Geng Bao was unmoved. "The first family in Jizhou may already have a master, so I dare not think about it."

Guo Jia shook his feather fan and shook his head with a smile. "Brother Yuanmao, you can't get up early without profit. What business is there for you, a pure and greedy person? Why not go to practice Taoism? Although the scenery here is beautiful, it's a good place to practice it, but the profits are coming and going, and the smell of money and the fishy sea are mixed. It's not a good place to practice Taoism."

Geng Bao smiled but didn't say anything, and he was secretly proud of himself. Guo Jia threw out one bait after another. He was indeed very moved, but if he couldn't wait to swallow it, he would be fooled. The Zhen family had formed an alliance with Sun Ce, and he could not fight for the first family in Jizhou. He intentionally or unintentionally talked about irrelevant gossip with Guo Jia and patiently dealt with him. When the waiter got the water and cooked the tea, the fragrance of the tea spread in the room. He accompanied Guo Jia to taste the tea for a while before he spoke again.

"I dare not ask for the first family. The weapons involved are too wide, and I cannot get involved. I just want to make some money." Geng Bao put down the teacup and said slowly: "Do you have any good suggestions for priests?"

"You don't want to do what I said, so why don't you tell me what you want to do."

"I want to make a lot of things, such as paper. Mi Zizhong and I once mentioned it, and I don't know if he mentioned it to Wu Hou."

"It's been raised. However, the profits of paper are not high and the quantity is limited, so I'm afraid I won't make much money."

"Why? There are so many paper workshops in Nanyang, and the output is very high."

Guo Jia explained roughly. Zhongyuan has recently opened many new book printing workshops, and the demand for paper has soared, and paper workshops in various places are too busy for a while. Paper workshops are different from book printing workshops. To some extent, they are rewarded to supporters. There were contracts at the beginning of construction. Each county only built one or two companies according to the population ratio, which is not something that anyone can build if they want. Announcing the printing process itself has the purpose of ensuring the profits of paper workshops. Of course, it is impossible to build paper workshops casually, otherwise the existing paper workshops must have opinions.

After hearing this, Geng Bao was anxious. Guo Jia's explanation was reasonable and very consistent with the information they received, but in this way, he would have gone in vain. Even if other businesses could be done, he would not make much money. He might not even make the 200 yuan from buying this yard. Should he sell the yard again? Geng Bao hesitated for a while, but there was no other way.

Guo Jia said again: "Did you buy paper to print books?"

"Yes."

"Then why don't you buy books directly?"

Geng Bao looked at Guo Jia and hesitated: "We... want to print a book for Zheng Kangcheng."

"That's all?"

"That's all."

Guo Jia shivered. "How much paper can I use? I thought it was a big business, so I was so happy." He stood up and shook his sleeves. "Don't think of any monopoly. Any paper shop in Nanyang can meet your requirements and just place an order a few months in advance. If Zheng Kangcheng's name is reported, you can also get a discounted price. If you are willing, we can also print the manuscript for you. It is better than you print it and the cost is lower."

Seeing that Guo Jia was disappointed and was about to say goodbye, Geng Bao hurriedly stepped forward to stop him. "Don't worry about the wine, I have something to discuss with you."

"What's the matter?" Guo Jia was very impatient. "I don't have any interest in a small business with dozens of gold and hundreds of gold."
