Mi Fang was stunned in place, thinking that she had misheard.

The salt road in Hedong was cut off by the Huns, and the salt shortage in Yanyu and Henan was not only the price of salt skyrocketing, but there was no salt to buy at all.

Although their sea salt has increased fivefold, they can still buy it with money to alleviate the salt shortage.

This Cao Yuan dared to think that the price was too high, so he simply didn't buy it

was stunned for a long time before Mi Fang came back to her senses.

His eyes turned into contempt, and he sneered: "Cao Yanling, the stakes are very high, I think you should ask your superiors for instructions, don't make your own decisions." "

Cao Yuan didn't bother to pay attention to him, and glanced at Xu Chu: "Zhongkang, what I said just now wasn't clear enough?"

Xu Chu understood, rolled up his sleeves and strode forward, grabbing Mi Fang with one hand.

"What are you doing, let go of me!".

Mi Fang was taken aback, and struggled with excited screams.

"Childe told you to get out, are you deaf, don't you get out of here!".

Xu Chu was like carrying a chicken, so he rudely dragged Mi Fang out and threw her out of the hall.

Suffering such rude treatment, Mi Fang was so ashamed that her face was about to explode.

"Cao Yuan~~".

But he could only grit his teeth with hatred, get up, and flee with his sleeves.

Inside the hall.

Cao Yuan drank and was relaxed and leisurely, as if nothing had happened.

"Cao Gongzi, the sea salt of the Mi family, the price has increased fivefold at the good end, what do you say is going on?".

Xiahou Juan couldn't calm down, and asked with his eyebrows.

"What else can it be, of course, Liu Bei wants to take advantage of the danger of others, scrape Cao Gong hard, and instruct the Mi family to raise the price. "

Cao Yuan said disapprerovingly.

Xiahou suddenly came to his senses.

She clenched her fists and scolded: "This big-eared thief is really despicable and shameless, saying that he is attached to my uncle... Cao Gong, secretly but falling into the well!".

"Liu Bei prides himself on being a member of the Han royal family, and he wants to support the Han family, but our Cao Gong has been scolded as a powerful minister who wants to seek the dynasty and usurp the throne, do you think Liu Bei will really belong to our Cao Gong?"

Cao Yuan sipped his wine lightly and asked sarcastically with a sarcastic look in his eyes.

Xiahou was shocked, as if he had an understanding.

Xu Chu was puzzled and said: "I heard that Liu Bei has always had the name of benevolence and righteousness, and everyone said that he loved the people like a son

"Benevolence?".

Cao Yuan smiled disdainfully, and said meaningfully: "I'm afraid that my mouth is all benevolence and righteousness, but my heart is all business." "

Xu Chu scratched his head, and it took a while to understand the deep meaning of his words, and scolded: "Then according to that, this Liu Da'er is really fucking hypocritical." "

"Hypocrisy is not hypocrisy, and it is none of our business, don't be angry about it, it's not worth it. "

Cao Yuan didn't think it was there, but instructed Gan Mei: "Mei'er, tell them to cook a few good dishes and have a few drinks tonight." "

Gamme promised.

Xiahou Juan's eyes moved, and he hurriedly said: "Even if Liu Bei is despicable and takes advantage of people's danger, but if you don't buy his sea salt, how can you resolve the salt shortage, and how can you make a difference to Cao Sikong?"

"Rest assured, there will be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and there will always be salt. "

Cao Yuan's face was relaxed, and there was no pressure at all.

Xiahou Juan looked suspicious, and asked rhetorically: "What do you mean by this, if you don't buy Mijia sea salt, will it be possible that the salt will fall from the sky?"

"Maybe the world will really drop salt..."

Cao Yuan smiled, and there was a bit of mystery in his eyes.

Xiahou Juanxing's eyes flickered, becoming more and more dazed.

...

Xiaopei, county government.

"What?".

"That Cao Yuan really said that he wouldn't buy a tael of salt?"

Liu Bei's eyes gathered, and surprise appeared on his face.

"I could not have heard him wrong!"

Mi Fang said indignantly: "Not only did he say that he wouldn't buy it, but he also kicked me out, which was extremely rude." "

Liu Bei frowned, and looked at Sun Qian in confusion: "Gongyou, this result is a little unexpected, what do you say?"

"It stands to reason that the salt road in Hedong was cut off, and Mo said that the price of our salt only increased five times, even if it increased tenfold, Cao Cao had to buy it. "

"Could it be that this Cao Yuan made his own assertions?"

Sun Qian's eyes were also suspicious, so he guessed.

Mi Zhu questioned: "Our sea salt is very important to Cao Cao, he is a small salt order, and he dares to say that if he doesn't buy it, he won't buy it, isn't he afraid that Cao Cao will punish him?"

Sun Qian's words were speechless, and he couldn't explain it.

"It's better for him to make his own decisions!".

Zhang Fei jumped up and shouted: "When the time comes, Cao Apu will be angry and cut off his head, won't he fall into our arms and take a bad breath for the eldest brother!"

Zhang Fei's voice reminded Sun Gan and the others, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up.

Sun Qian sneered: "If it is really as General Yide said, then this Cao Yuan is seeking his own death." "

"Good, very good!".

Liu Bei's brows also relaxed, and he stroked his short hair and sneered: "I want to see how this Cao Yuan explains to Cao Mengde!"

...

After January.

Xudu, Sikong House.

"Fengxiao, that Cao Ziyou, haven't you bought the sea salt back?"

Cao Cao's brows furrowed and he asked again.

Guo Jia arched his hand and said: "Yu Sikong, according to the news from Feng County, the Mi family sat on the ground and raised the price of salt, and the price of salt increased fivefold, so Cao Yuan did not buy Mi family sea salt again. "

Bang!

Cao Cao slapped on the case, "This must be Liu Bei's instructions, the big-eared thief is taking advantage of people's concerns and wants to scrape a windfall from me!"

Although Liu Bei was forced by the situation and was forced to secretly form a good relationship, this person has great ambitions and will not be willing to be subservient. "

"He must want to take advantage of our lack of salt and take the opportunity to make a huge profit to recruit troops, and then he can compete with Lu Bu without help. "

Guo Jia's eyes were sharp, and a few words punctured Liu Bei's wishful thinking.

Cao Cao's fists clenched, and he was silent for a while.

After a long time.

Cao Cao loosened his fist and sighed: "Although the big-eared thief is hateful, but the current situation can't be forbeared, so I sent someone to inform Cao Yuan that the Mi family's high-priced sea salt should be bought." "

He still chose to cut the meat and give in.

"Sikong, with Cao Yuan's resourceful pattern, he should be able to realize that even if the Mi family sits on the ground and starts at a high price, we must buy it. "

"But now, he chose not to buy Mijia sea salt, could it be that his move has a deep meaning?"

Guo Jia reminded.

Cao Cao's eyes flickered, and he realized a little.

Feng Xiao reminded him that although Ziyou has always acted strangely, he always has his own reasons. "

"If I force him to buy the Mi family's high-priced salt, I am acting smart and disrupting his plan?"

Cao Cao paced with his hands in his hands, and his thoughts flipped in his heart.

Pondered for a long time.

Cao Cao flicked his hand: "Fengxiao, quickly call Dian Wei to prepare, I will rush to Feng County overnight and personally go to Ziyou to ask what is going on." "

"No!".

Guo Jia received the order.

Night.

Cao Cao, as the main bookkeeper, under the protection of Dian Wei, rode a red rabbit horse and galloped towards Feng County.
