536 Seeing Qian's Eyes Open Guo Fengxiao (3/3)(1/2)
Chapter 536: Guo Fengxiao is jealous of money (3/3)
Indeed, the top priority at the moment is the surrender of the Lu Han Kingdom.
Whether the Han Dynasty of the Lü family could submit to the court also determines how much power Cao Cao would invest in the future battle against Yuan Xi's Youzhou.
The 30,000 Goguryeo soldiers may not sound too much.
However, if you really go to Youzhou battlefield, it is likely to affect the entire battle situation.
Once a stalemate occurs, it may trigger a chain reaction in the Xianbei, Bingzhou, Southern Xiongnu, Wuhuan, and even the entire Jizhou area.
Of course, Cao Cao did not want to be stalemate with Yuan Xi. In his opinion, the battle against Youzhou must be successful and must not be dragged on. For this reason, he almost mobilized the three prefectures of Jizhou, Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and what he wanted was to pacify quickly. Therefore, this battle must be successful.
"By the way, Lu Bu's daughter seems to be called...Lu Lan?"
"ah?"
"That woman is quite not simple, she is known as the female tiger of the Lü family in Sanhan.
I can’t say that I can’t tell you the time, but I will take some trouble. You have been recuperating in the Bailan Monastery these two days, and I will know the situation with you at any time."
"Here!"
When Cao Cao was about to leave, Cao Peng suddenly asked, "Uncle, the Lü family, who will send him as an envoy?"
Cao Cao paused, looked at Cao Peng, sighed and said, "It's that Gao Shun."
There is endless sadness in the words.
Cao Peng knew that when Cao Cao besieged Lu Bu, he admired Gao Shun very much. He even prepared to recruit Gao Shun to surrender, but Cao Peng did not expect that Cao Shun would make a fuss. Gao Shun finally followed the family of the Lu family and went overseas to the Sanhan to fight for the world.
That sigh also contained dissatisfaction with Cao Peng.
But Cao Peng was also a little helpless.
You, Cao, are lustful, how could I hand over the Lu Bu family to you? Not to mention anything else, after you captured Xia Pi, you clearly gave Du, the wife of Qin Yilu, the general of Lu Bu, to Guan Yu. As a result, after you saw it, you directly took the Du family into the room.
There was also some conflict between Cao Cao and Guan Yu.
This thing really happens!
At least it was Cao Peng who saw it with his own eyes...
Not only that, after Qin Yilu's death, Qin Yilu's son was also accepted by Cao Cao and treated as an adopted son. What's the name of that child? Yes, Qin Lang! Now he seems to be eight years old and still lives in the Cao's mansion. It is said that Cao Cao is very popular. Although he has an almost paranoid preference for ***, he is really good for those adopted children.
Cao Zhen before, Qin Lang now...
It is said that when Cao Cao accepted Qin Lang as his son, he wanted to change his name to Qin Lang.
As a result, Du refused to obey, and Cao Cao did not object, and still let Qin Asu inherit his surname of Qin Yilu. Qin Lang was eight years old, and Cao Cao was also looking for Mr. Enlightenment for him. However, this time, Cao Peng refused to jump out. Cao Chong's actions before made him feel more or less sad. When he came to Xudu, Cao Peng didn't believe Cao Chong didn't know. He actually visited him in the future.
He is ten years old!
It's time to be sensible...
In fact, Cao Peng wrongly accused Cao Chong.
Cao Cao secretly called Cao Peng back, but few people knew about it.
Including Cao Chong, he didn't know that Cao Peng had arrived in Xudu. The reason why Cao Zhi knew was that he was not the reason that he had handled documents for Cao Cao on weekdays. Of course, Cao Zhi had no intention of meeting Cao Peng. So when he was separated, Cao Zhi also asked Cao Cao: Father, I wonder if the child could visit the brother of the Cao family?"
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Of course."
Cao Zhi was willing to contact Cao Peng, but Cao Cao was still willing to see him.
Because he had discovered the alienation between Cao Peng and Cao Chong. If Cao Chong was an ordinary child or Cao Pi was alive, then Cao Cao might not have opposed the contact between Cao Peng and Cao Chong. But now, Cao Pi is dead, and Cao Cao has not made a decision for who is the legitimate son. Therefore, he did not want Cao Chong and Cao Peng to get too close. Because he was worried that Cao Peng would affect Cao Chong.
The greater the influence of Cao Peng on Cao Chong, the more likely it is to get into trouble.
Cao Cao didn't want to ruin Cao Peng's life, but he would not hope that his heir would become Cao Peng's puppet in the future!
After all, Cao Chong and Cao Zhang are different in many places. Cao Zhang is passionate, impulsive, and very rebellious. So Cao Cao asked him to follow Cao Peng in hope that Cao Zhang could get rid of these shortcomings. But Cao Chong is young, but he has his own opinions. As for whether his opinions are correct? It is not important...wrong, it can be corrected. After all, Cao Chong is young and has a much greater plasticity than adults.
It is also because of this that when Cao Chong and Zhou Buyi approached, Cao Cao did not intervene.
Even though he knew that there were some problems here, he still didn't say anything, just observed silently from the side.
But he didn't expect it.
My silence actually caused some misunderstandings from Mrs. Huan.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Shortly after Cao Cao left, a slave from outside the palace came to report: "Guo Jijiu is here."
"Afu, I am afraid that my third brother and I will not be able to accompany you in the past two days. The military affairs are busy and the contacts are not very convenient... In a few days, we will go to Ye County. At that time, my third brother and I will wait for you to meet in Ye County. Hehe, our brothers and I will go to the front station for you."
When they parted, Dianman and Xu Yi sent Cao Peng out.
Cao Peng nodded, bowed goodbye to the two of them, and walked out of the mansion.
I guess Guo Jia has been staying in Sikong Mansion, otherwise he wouldn't have come so soon.
Guo Jia poked his head out of the carriage and waved to Cao Peng. Cao Peng did not say anything, and got on the carriage, and then the curtain fell, and the carriage slowly moved along the street.
In the car, an oil lamp was embedded on the wall of the compartment.
The oil bowl is sunk deep inward, so there is no need to worry about spilling out and causing a fire.
The lights are not particularly bright, but they are very transparent.
Guo Jia smiled and said, "Afu, in this blink of an eye, we haven't seen each other for a year."
Cao Peng stared at Guo Jia, but had no good expression.
"Yes, you don't even have to show your face. After my sister-in-law came a few times, she took away my nearly ten-slash deer pattern paper. I don't know who I'm going to get into."
When Guo Jia heard this, he immediately showed an embarrassment.
He blew up and defended him: "This matter has nothing to do with me. Wenruo took away three deer pattern paper, Gongda took away two, and the remaining five, the lord came to my house a few days ago and took away two, and not only did he say that he had bought two, but also a lot of the cold gold paper and fish roe paper I bought myself were taken away. Ah Fu, discuss something... Your deer pattern paper is really too expensive! I can't buy much of my monthly salary. Can it be cheaper? In this way, everyone can be happy, why not do it?"
"You guys are happy, I'm not happy."
Cao Peng suddenly roared in a low voice: "Do you know, how many deer pattern papers are there in my workshop only in January?"
"This, this..."
Guo Jia suddenly regretted it a little!
When Cao Peng opened a workshop, he sent someone to tell him that he could get one percent of his shares by giving him 500 trump cards.
As a result, Guo Jia thought it was too little, and at the same time, he really had no spare money, so he refused.
Now it seems that a big miscalculation...
I thought that one percent of the shares were not much, but when I saw Bailu Paper House busy day and night, I knew how prosperous it was. The paper in Fu Paper House was rarely in stock for more than a month. But the amount of hard yellow paper and plain paper consumed by Taixue every day was extremely amazing.
One hundred pieces of plain paper worth only eighty coins in one knife.
If you buy more, there will be discounts.
I thought I couldn't sell it for much money, but now it seems that it is definitely a daily profit of money.
What really makes money in Fuzhilou is not deer pattern paper, cold gold paper and fish roe paper. What really makes money is precisely those dyed yellow paper and plain paper that look extremely cheap. Secondly, those colored papers are loved by many scholars. Although it was chaotic in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, it was also an era of exaggerated personality. The so-called Wei and Jin styles originated to a large extent from scholars in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
To use a unique color to represent your own personality, of course no one will refuse.
For example, the Seven Sons of Jian'an... By the way, there is no such name yet, so let's call it the Seven Sons of Jian'an for the time being. Wang Can, among the Seven Sons of Jian'an, is good at using green paper. So he sent people to Fuzhilou and spent a lot of money to express his desire to make color paper separately.
Wang Can's colored paper uses peony patterns.
Therefore, he got a nickname in Xu Du, called: Qing Guzi.
Don’t get me wrong, this is not a swear word. Peony is also known as Rat Gu, and Wang Can is also good at using green notes, so he has the nickname of Qing Gu.
There is also Chen Lin, who is good at lotus flowers, but she also likes red by nature.
Therefore, I chose red paper with lotus patterns...
This kind of special paper may not be cheaper than deer pattern paper. But in terms of production technology, you only need to make a pattern paper mold and you can produce it. And don’t bargain... It’s vulgar to talk about money. If you want to talk about personality and you ask for your preferences, don’t be afraid of spending money. Customized paper starts at a cost of 500 yuan. In other words, Cao Peng only needs to use a very small cost to get the price of deer pattern paper. Those famous scholars have to come to beg you, otherwise you won’t talk. Sometimes it’s so simple to make money from cultural people! Not to mention making money from extremely rich cultural people at home. Using unique colored paper is taste, status, and a kind of personality display.
Don't think you can buy it if you have money.
Even if those gentry and tyrants spend three times the price, they will not be able to customize them at Fuzhilou.
To a certain extent, the ability to customize Fuzhilou for you is to recognize your status and status.
Even Guo Jia’s wife, who never talks about money and indifferent personality, blames Guo Jia when she comes back, why didn’t she agree?
Now, Guo Jia sent the money to Cao Peng, but Cao Peng didn't necessarily pay attention.
Looking at Guo Jia sighing, Cao Peng felt particularly accomplished.
A genius!
What a achievement would it be to make a genius start to pay attention to money?
"Come on, don't pretend to me... This is the dividend you paid in the paper shop last year, a total of 1,200 guan. If you keep it, you will... Xiaoyi will complain when he grows up. I, an uncle, will not even bring you rich. Your 500 guan is just a cover, considering your reputation. In the future, some people say that I spent money to bribe you... For me, can I lack the 500 guan?"
Guo Jia was stunned.
From Cao Peng, he took a contract letter made of mulberry paper, which clearly stated: Now, Guo Jia, a native of Yingyin, invested 500 jin to enter Bailu Paper Floor. The share is one hundred, and the dividends are settled every year on December 22nd. The contract is in triplicate, and the paper Floor and Guo Jia each hold one paper, and the rest go to the government to report. This contract can be transferred and inherited until Guo Jia himself voluntarily sells it, and both parties are not allowed to regret it. The contractor, Bailu Paper Floor, Cao Peng, and Guo Jia, a native of Yingyin.
On the back of the contract, there is also the seal of the prefect of Xingyang.
