Chenliu County, Cai Mansion.

"Young Master Lu..." Seeing Lu Yu walking in quickly, Cheng Yu stood up and bowed...

Speaking of which, this cruel man who is not even afraid of ghosts;

At this critical moment, facing the rebellious county magistrate, he cut off his head with a expressionless face, lifted it up and walked out the door;

This... a cruel man who doesn't blink his eyes without taking a blink of an eye. The wolf kills him...

When I saw Lu Yu, I rarely showed an extremely respectful side.

This is not only because Lu Yu has supported him, but also because Lu Yu allows him to display his courage and talents without reservation and use them without any reservation, without any need to worry about other people's attitudes and opinions!

"Sima Cheng must have something important to come here!" Lu Yu asked Cheng Yu to sit down while asking him to sit down. He also took the initiative to help Cheng Yu fill a cup of tea, picked up and handed it to his hands.

Although these two people, in terms of identity... one is the General of the Faqiu Central Army, and the other is the Chief of the Touching Crown. It is logically superiors and subordinates, but Lu Yu never regarded Cheng Yu as an outsider, so naturally he could not make the stinking airs of the superior.

.

"Thank you!" Cheng Yu took a sip of tea gently, and then said, "This time I came to pay homage to Mr. Lu, to report..."

Report? Lu Yu didn't understand it.

Cheng Yu quickly added: "It's about gold-touching. Thanks to Mr. Lu's attention, I will be the lieutenant of this gold-touching school."

"In the past four months, I have never reported to the General of the Central Army (Faqiu). This is a list..."

Cheng Yu handed a bamboo slip to Lu Yu, and at the same time explained in detail: "I have robbed eight kings and princes, seventeen tombs of wealthy merchants and wealthy families, and obtained seventy-five boxes of gold and silver, jewellery, and thirteen boxes of precious utensils.

...There are many famous swords and instruments from the pre-Qin period, and in addition to this...a large number of copper plates, iron, ore..."

Cheng Yu blurted out his words one by one, while Lu Yu looked at the tiny pieces of gold and silver utensils listed on the bamboo slips and precious treasures... while listening to Cheng Yu's words, he had thought it through. It turns out that... Cheng Yu is here to show off.

Lu Yu didn't expect that Cheng Yu's job in gold mining was only four or five months, and his income was so generous. Good luck... More than 70 boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, Lu Yu couldn't figure out how much it cost and how much grain could he exchange for?

The key is that Cheng Yu is not working full-time in the work of monies. Lu Bu is surprised to attack Yanzhou. When the county and county are at the top, he can still take some time to kill a county magistrate and persuade a county magistrate to be stable.

Stay in the situation...

This is a job and hobby that both hands are strong...

This is also his most awesome and talented place!

"Don't worry, you are the master of yourselves, and Cao Gong will also remember it. When he comes back, there will definitely be a heavier reward." Lu Yu was not a painting cake this time... With Cheng Yu's merit, what does Cao Cao reward him with?

Not too much!

"Young Master Lu misunderstood. Yu was not here to ask for me." Cheng Yu shook his head and said... "If you want to give me a reward, any treasure in the imperial tomb is far better than the young master. Cao Gong rewarded me several times, so why should Yu do this?

What about the trouble?”

Uh, that's right!

...Lu Yu thought that Cheng Yu was so pretentious that Feilong was about to ride his face. He didn't want to ask for credit, but the key is that the credit was too great, and it wouldn't work if he wanted to ask for credit or not.

Without waiting for Lu Yu to continue speaking.

Cheng Yu said first: "Mr. Lu, I have an important matter here. According to Mr. Lu's instructions, half of the property stolen in the past four months was sent to the warehouse in Yanzhou, and the other half was hidden by me in a cave.

inside."

"But now this property is too large. As soon as the people stationed in the gold camp are seriously insufficient, it is already the limit to be able to defend these property, let alone exploration, inquire, tomb robbery, and torch back and forth..."

"Secondly, these wealth is almost piled up like a mountain, and the small cave is not enough to let go. I came here to ask Mr. Lu if these wealth is to be sent to Long Xiao Camp?"

Part of the stolen property was transported to the Yanzhou warehouse, and the other part was stored in another place. This was Lu Yu's previous order...

Cheng Yu did a good job, but... no one expected that his efficiency in robbing tombs was much higher than that of "Hu Bayi" and "fat men".

With a huge number, even caves cannot be stored. Be good!

"So, Cheng Sima, I'll write a handwritten letter. You can take it to General Cao Xiu's place to ask for another hundred dragon cavalry later. The number of people in your gold-touching camp is smaller..."

Previously, Lu Yu only considered to rob and fight back, and did not consider the issue after these gold, silver and jewelry were dug out.

Storage requires some troops, exchange for food requires people, as well as exploration, keep watch, inquire... People are needed everywhere. Think about it this way, the Tiaojin Camp is a disciplined organization!

The original one hundred people in the Jinjin Camp were a bit too short of watching.

Now, among the soldiers of the Thousand Dragons of the Warriors, a hundred people were drawn from the Forging Shop to be turned into craftsmen, and the gold camp was expanded to 200 people, and only seven hundred people were left. Calculate it, it was also

It’s enough, it’s not too expensive for military and horses to be more expensive!

As for...another question, the delivery of these gold, silver and jewelry.

In fact, there is no need to transport it at all. Previously, the reason why Lu Yu left some of his property was to have more bargaining chips in his hands when dealing with emergencies...

Now it seems that it's just right.

"Sima Cheng..." Lu Yu said, "These gold, silver and jewelry do not need to be transported to Long Xiao Camp. During this period... you and your brothers should also take a break, and don't steal the royal tomb again for the time being..."

Ah... I didn't steal the royal tomb, Cheng Yu's brows were slightly tight. For four months... Under the moonlight, when everything was silent, I went to the royal tomb tomb to "moving things" almost became his daily life with the Jinjin Camp.

Fighting wits and courage with those strange creatures and fighting against the mechanisms set by the predecessors, if one day he and his brothers will inevitably be itchy.

"Young Master Lu..."

"Cheng Sima, please listen to me after I finish speaking." Without waiting for Cheng Yu to speak, Lu Yu spoke first: "Cheng Sima, during this period, I want you to touch the money to do three things, these three things are a hundred times more important than tomb robbers.

!”

“Three things?”

"Yes, the first thing is to store grain." Lu Yu's face became serious. He rarely talked to his people in such a solemn tone. "I want you to take out all the stored gold, silver and jewelry for food, can

Buy as much as you buy. No matter how high the price is, as long as you can buy it, buy it all! After you buy it, you will hide it all as usual!"

Lu Yu said in a serious tone...

Ah...this...

Cheng Yu's eyes turned, and then shook his head slightly. "Mr. Lu, the time for storing grain now does not seem to be very good... Now the old grain is in short supply, and the new grain has not yet come down. The price of grain is in an extremely high period, even if you have to storing grain

, I suggest that after the bumper harvest in July, the same gold and silver can buy more than three times more food."

Cheng Yu was meticulous, but he was quite refreshing. He told what he thought. "In addition, as far as I know, although most of the grain in Cao's camp was stored in Puyang City, other counties and counties were

The grain warehouse still stores sufficient grain, and it should not be a problem to maintain a bumper grain harvest in Yanzhou until July...unless..."

Cheng Yu paused and continued: "Unless Cao Gong wants to fight Puyang City and go to a decisive battle with Lu Bu, then the food will be difficult... But, it seems that it is not wise to attack at this time, and Cao's army's disadvantage is lack of

The advantage of Lu Bu’s army is that they have enough food, and they use their own softness to defeat the enemy. The winning and defeat are unpredictable.”

"...It's better to wait until the autumn harvest, the Cao army will be rich in food and grass before attacking Lu Bu. Lu Bu's advantage will become his disadvantage, and Cao's camp's disadvantage will instead be transformed into an advantage! In this way, the winning and losing technique will tend to be ours.

”

I have to say that every sentence and every word of Cheng Yu is rich in insightful insights.

No matter which angle you listen and analyze it, it makes sense, but... there is a major premise that he doesn't know, but Lu Yu knows, there is no food in July this year...

With drought and locust plague, even if there is food that can be harvested, it will be minimal. By that time, Lu Bu's advantage will only be greater, and Cao Cao's disadvantage will not be just a disadvantage, but will even turn into a situation of defeat!

This is what moves the whole body...

"Cough cough..." Thinking of this, Lu Yu coughed lightly. "Just do as I say. Don't ask so many reasons first. Just buy it. It's easy for us to get money, so be more generous when spending money.

Don't be stingy."

Speaking of this, Lu Yu smiled and patted Cheng Yu on the shoulder.

Cheng Yu was still confused... He was obviously a few months apart, but he could get three times the difference. Why did he have to buy it at this time?

But what Cheng Yu didn't know was that his confusion came earlier because... Lu Yu's next order made him even more unable to find Bei!

"The grain storage we just mentioned is the first and second. Cheng Sima, you sent someone to Bingzhou and Yangzhou to buy a large amount of dry rice and rice seeds. This should be fast."

"In addition, there is another... Cheng Sima, you and the Jinshi Camp must find ways to get more chickens, ducks, geese, frogs and other types... Distribute them in the four counties of Yanzhou and Xuzhou... I'm useful!"

this…

Sure enough, Lu Yu's words directly made Cheng Yu feel dazed.

If the first item is to store grain at a high price, it can be attributed to being rich and willful, then... the second item is to buy seeds of dry rice and rice. I can’t understand it!

People in the Central Plains eat mostly pasta, and the fields are grown with a large amount of wheat and soybeans...

Rice is rarely planted in the Central Plains. On the one hand, rice needs to be surrounded by lakes to build fields, and there are not so many lakes in the middle, so it is very troublesome to plant. On the other hand, the rice harvest is not as good as wheat!

...Although the dry rice in Bingzhou does not pick up places to cultivate, it can even withstand drought to a certain extent, the key problem is that it is not delicious!

Just imagine, being able to withstand drought, which shows that the disguised form of water in rice is severely insufficient and very hard... It is also wheat and rice, so there are many people who choose wheat naturally.

Besides, the taste and harvest of dry rice are far inferior to wheat. If you have the skill to make more delicious wheat, isn’t it fragrant? Unless it is a poor place like Bingzhou and Yongliang, who would...will go?

Planting this thing?

certainly…

The reason Cheng Yu is not optimistic about this thing is that it is not delicious and has low cost performance...

The reason Lu Yu is optimistic about is that rice prevents locusts, and drought rice prevents drought...

Now it's shouting that it's not delicious because the people have a choice. If the day comes, locust plague and drought are coming, and the crops are not harvested... The ones in front of you will either chew on the bark or throw wild vegetables... or eat this one that is not good.
To be continued...
