Cao Heng followed Cao Shu into the study.

The father and son talked about the process of attacking the Jie people for a while.

Cao Shu asked Cao Heng: "If you were asked to go to Hetao, are you sure you would destroy all the Jie people?"

"The Jie people fled to Hetao. When our army entered there, they would probably be treated as a special search for them." Cao Heng replied: "It is not that easy to destroy them."

"Do you have a way to find and destroy the Jie people?" Cao Shu asked afterwards.

In fact, Cao Heng didn't understand why Cao Shu could adopt a tolerant strategy of integrating other alien races, but he had no intention of hiding against the Jie people at all, just as if the Jie people had a deep hatred with him.

"The solutions were all figured out. It would take some time for me to return outside the pass." Cao Heng replied: "Before I return outside the pass, I should be able to think of a solution."

"I will arrange for Ma Mengqi to go over in Xiliang, and the Huns will be handed over to you." Cao Shuo said: "You have never let me down in the past. If you go to the Huns again, I hope you will not let me down."

"Don't worry, Father, I will never give the Huns a chance to survive even if they are at all." Cao Heng bowed and responded.

The father and son talked in the study not long, and Zhu Ao led the Lingyun Pavilion manager to come.

He first saw Cao Shuo's courtesy, and the manager saw that Cao Heng was also here, so he bowed and bowed: "The eldest son is here too."

"It was him who came to you, not me." Cao Shuo said to the manager: "He brought back many Jie women from outside the pass, wanting you to help deal with them. Do you have any good ways to send all these women out?"

"The lord said he wanted to give it to him, but he was actually planning to sell it?" the manager asked.

"I won't ask you to deal with it without any benefits." Cao Shu said: "After thinking about it, you have many ways, so I sent someone to invite you."

"I heard that the eldest son brought back 200,000 to 300,000 people this time." The manager asked, "Is it true?"

"More than 200,000, and it's still far from 300,000." Cao Heng replied: "I have cleaned up all the Jie people, and most of their women are here."

"It's not easy to deal with so many women in the Jie tribe." The manager replied: "The so-called rare goods are so vague. If there are not many, they can be sold at a good price. But once there are too many, no one will be willing to buy them."

"Is it not better to sell it cheaper?" Cao Shu asked.

"No." The manager replied: "It's so strange that the fewer things there are, the more you like to snatch them. Once there are too many, no one will care about them."

Cao Shu nodded, what the manager said was indeed the case.

Often, there are rumors in the market that the price of something is rising, or that something is difficult to see in the market, so many people will use it to snatch it.

Many times, after robbing, people will quickly find that they are actually fooled by some unscrupulous businessmen.

In order to create an atmosphere of shortage of goods, profiteers will hide a lot of hoarded goods and only take out a small part to invest in the market.

Only when the popularity becomes popular and there is no more room for improvement will they take out the hoarded goods to fill the market.

When goods are flooded into the market, the original popularity of speculation has not completely subsided, and we can still make a big profit at this time.

Cao Shu is very familiar with such marketing routines.

Before the unification of the world, bad businessmen tried to mess up the market in this way and gain more benefits.

They ignored a little while doing this.

It was not someone else who commanded the Wei Dynasty but Cao Shu.

He is very familiar with these routines. Every time Cao Shu learned that there was a certain type of goods on the market that should not be in short supply suddenly became rare, he would immediately take measures to allocate similar goods to fill the market.

The looting lasts for only two or three days. When people find that the looting has not decreased, but instead, more and more, they gradually lose interest.

The merchants who hoarded these goods could only deal with everything at a price lower than their purchases.

Several similar situations occurred, and many bad businessmen lost their money as a result. There were fewer and fewer businessmen in the territory of Dawei.

Of course, some goods are strictly prohibited from being hoarded.

For example, food, salt and other necessary materials, no matter who dares to hoard them, Cao Shuo will immediately order the confiscation of property and behead the evildoer.

The cost of speculating the market is too high. Gradually, merchants in Dawei formed a dominant business atmosphere.

As for those who are not good at being a good person and are not suitable for business, they either lose their money or become popular after entering it, and gradually they dare not enter this field again.

Letting merchants do whatever they want will of course cause economic turmoil and even the whole world.

But Lingyun Pavilion is an official businessman under Cao Shuo. Although it operates independently and never allows the government to intervene, it is still under direct management by Cao Shuo.

Due to the special background of Lingyun Pavilion, no officials from all over the country dare to have their ideas.

Of course, Lingyun Pavilion will not participate in local government affairs, and always maintains a subtle relationship of non-interference with local governments.

The strange goods proposed by the manager are very affordable. If ordinary merchants suggested it, they would have caused trouble long ago.

But the manager of Lingyun Pavilion was based on the interests of the Great Wei Dynasty, so Cao Shu would not feel that there was anything wrong with saying such a proposal.

After the manager made his proposal, Cao Shu thought for a moment and asked him: "Is there any way to turn these 200,000 to 300,000 Jie women into habitable strange goods?"

"Separate them from all over the place." The manager said: "All 200,000 people are concentrated in one place, of course there will be a large number. If they are diverted, there will be only 3,000 or 2,000 people from all over the place, and it will not appear too many. Especially the Southern Barbarians who are unified by the lord..."

When the Lingyun Pavilion manager mentioned the Southern Barbarians, Cao Shu and Cao Heng's eyes lit up.

Although the barbarians in the south would also harass the Central Plains in the past, they had no interaction with the Hu people in the north, and the barbarians had never even seen what the Hu people looked like.

The Jie people are different from the Central Plains people. They are Western Asian whites, which is undoubtedly extremely novel for the barbarians in the south.

If the Jie women were sent to the Nanman side, they would be snatched away soon.

"How do you think you should give it to me?" Cao Shuo agreed with the manager's statement in his heart, and asked him.

The manager replied: "I think we should give some handsome people in small quantities and give more handsome people in a small quantity. Those handsome people can attract the interest of the barbarians. As for ordinary people, it is mainly because the goods are sold at a low price. When the barbarians buy the first batch, we will send the second batch to the next batch."

"If you want to make money, you really have to rely on you." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "Then follow your method. I will give it to you all the 200,000 to 300,000 Jie tribe women."

"Lord." The manager of Lingyun Pavilion bowed and said to Cao Shu: "I don't give away too many Jie women every time, there are 200,000 or 300,000 people, I'm afraid I'll have to raise them for a few more days."

"Don't let me keep it for too long." Cao Shuo said: "It's not certain how much you sell, but every day you raise it will consume a lot."

"Don't worry, lord, I will deal with them all as soon as possible." The manager of Lingyun Pavilion replied: "I will definitely not let the lord keep them in my hands for too long."

"I can feel at ease if I leave it to you." Cao Heng said: "You must do it as soon as possible and don't let me wait too long."

"I understand." The manager of Lingyun Pavilion agreed, and then asked Cao Shuo: "Do you dare to ask the lord, do you have any other instructions?"

"There is no other order, you can go and do it first." Cao Shu waved his hand.

The manager agreed and left.

After he stepped down, Cao Shu asked Cao Heng: "You heard what the manager said just now?"

"I've heard it." Cao Heng replied, then asked Cao Shuo: "Does my father really plan to hand over all the Jie women to Lingyun Pavilion?"

Cao Shu replied: "Or who do you think you should hand them over?"

Cao Heng didn't know how to respond when he was asked by Cao Shu.

If there were only three or two thousand women in the Jie tribe, he would be able to deal with it if there were only three or two thousand women.

But there are 200,000 to 300,000 people who have to deal with them and cannot be held in their hands. But it is not something that the eldest son of the Great Wei Dynasty can do.

The only way to deal with it is to hand them over to Lingyun Pavilion.

"Your grandmother should have already gotten up." Cao Shuo said to Cao Heng: "I have some things to do here. You go with your grandmother first. When you need to find you, I will send someone here."

"Boy left." Cao Heng stood up and left Cao Shuo's study.

Perhaps people are born with an indescribable fear of their fathers.

After leaving Cao Shuo's study, Cao Heng felt a breath of indescribable comfort.

Every time he is with Cao Shuo, he feels stressed.

This pressure comes from his heart, and he has never even felt it on the battlefield.

After Cao Heng left, Cao Shu ordered Zhu Ao: "Go and invite Ma Mengqi."

Zhu Ao accepted the order and withdrew. Not long after, Ma Chao came to Cao Shuo's study.

After seeing Cao Shuo, Ma Chao asked, "Do you dare to ask the lord to call me over, what are your instructions?"

"How long has it been since you went back in Xiliang?" Cao Shu suddenly asked Ma Chao.

Ma Chao replied: "I have been away from Xiliang for many years, but I have never been back. I wonder why my lord remembered to ask these questions."

"Have you heard news about Xiliang recently?" Cao Shuo asked again.

"I really haven't received any news from there." When talking about Xiliang, Ma Chao looked a little lonely. He said to Cao Shuo: "The lord has been conquering the world for many years, and I have followed it for many years. How can I have the leisure to think about those things?"

"It seems you really have to think about it." Cao Shuo smiled slightly and said to Ma Chao: "I got the news that Xiliang is a little turbulent. After thinking about it, no one can calm down in the past."

He then asked Ma Chao: "If I want to integrate the Qiang people in Xiliang, what do you think?"

"Our Ma family also has the blood of Qiang people. In fact, there is not much difference between Qiang people and Central Plains people." Ma Chao replied: "My lord wants me to return to Xiliang, and I probably already know what it is for. The Qiang people in Xiliang migrate and merge, and the lord just leave it to me to do it."

"How many people do you need?" Cao Shuo asked again.

Ma Chao thought for a moment: "Please give me five thousand soldiers."

"Five thousand people?" Cao Shuo was stunned: "What are you doing with just such a few people?"

"The Fufeng Ma family is still in Xiliang." Ma Chao replied: "When you raise your arms there, you should get a lot of response. It is enough for the lord to give me five thousand soldiers. When you arrive in Xiliang, it is easier to use the Qiang people than the Central Plains people."

"Since Meng Qi said that, I can't force you to bring too many people." Cao Shuo said, "Then I will give you five thousand people and distribute them to you Ma Xiu, Ma Tie, Ma Dai and others. What do you think?"

"I'm more sure if I can have their help." Ma Chao replied: "Lord, don't worry. When I return to Xiliang, I will be able to chop off the head and send it to the culprit who caused trouble there in a short time."
