Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

Feng County.

"One against ten!".

"One-on-two!".

"Four circles, fried!".

In the inner courtyard, Cao Yuan was in high spirits and fought with Gan Mei Xu Chu as a landlord.

When Cao Yuan first taught them, they were still quite resistant to this unheard of entertainment.

But at Cao Yuan's insistence, the two had to sit down reluctantly and listen to Cao Yuan explain the strange rules of play.

After playing a few cards, they quickly found fun and became addicted to it.

Today, Cao Yuan was sleepy, and he wanted to lie down for a while, but he was still forced by Xu Chu and Gan Mei to fight a few landlords.

"King Bomb!".

"One-on-three, I won!".

Gan Mei card was thrown on the table, and her pretty face was full of pride.

Xu Chu's eyes widened, and he exclaimed: "Win again, Gan girl, you are really amazing!".

"I really learned to be an apprentice, and I starved to death the master..."

Cao Yuan smiled bitterly and threw out a handful of bad cards.

I have to admit that Gan Mei does have the posture of a card god in terms of fighting landlords....

"What are you doing?".

Xiahou Juan was noisy by them, and walked into the courtyard with a suspicious face.

Cao Yuanzheng lost a lot and was bored, so he hurriedly pulled her over: "You came just in time, play two for me." "

"This.... What is this?".

Xiahou Juan looked at the playing cards made of bamboo in front of him, and his apricot eyes were dazed.

"Miss Juan'er, this is called playing cards, and we are going to play the landlord. "

Before Cao Yuan could speak, Gan Mei hurriedly explained.

"Poker?".

"Fight the place?".

Xiahou Juan's eyes widened, and he shook his head and said, "I have never heard of it, there are such games in this world, and I won't play them." "

"It's very simple, Miss Juan'er Bingxue is smart, she must be able to learn it as soon as she learns. "

Gan Mei was very enthusiastic and volunteered to explain the rules and play for her.

The more Xiahou Juan listened, the more he had a headache, and looked back at Cao Yuan: "Young Master Cao, it's been a month, you haven't bought another sea salt or two, and you don't want to think about how to make a difference, and there are such idle games?"

"As I said, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. "

"In that case, we are idle, of course we have to have some fun. "

Cao Yuan smiled disappreciatively.

Xiahou Juan looked dazed, and he really couldn't figure out in his heart, where did Cao Yuan get the confidence to be so calm.

"Don't think about it so much, this landlord is fighting. "

Cao Yuan sat beside Xiahou Juan and patiently taught her how to fight this landlord.

Xiahou Juan was helpless, and it was not easy to refuse, so he had to learn hard.

After a few cards, Xiahou Juan gradually found fun in it, and slowly immersed himself in it, and left behind all the things about sea salt.

Cao Yuan sipped a little wine, and watched the excitement in a leisurely mood.

Suddenly, a mechanical chime sounded in my head.

"Ding! The host greedily put 50,000 stone sea salt into the small treasury, and after the expiration of one month, it will gain 50,000 stone well salt!".

Gain storage.

A smile tugged at the corner of Cao Yuan's mouth.

There are four types of salt, sea salt, lake salt, rock salt, and well salt.

Among the four kinds of salt, the well salt has the least impurities, the highest salinity, and the finest salt grains, and its quality is the first of the four salts.

Most of the well salt is produced in Shu, because of the inconvenience of transportation in the far mountains of Shu, so the price of this well salt transported to the Central Plains can be about three times.

And in the current market, the price of 50,000 Shijing salt is enough to be worth 200,000 Shihai salt!

"This well salt was sold to the imperial court at the price of sea salt, which seems to be a bit of a loss. "

"But in the current situation of salt shortage, make less money, make less money, anyway, it's an empty glove white wolf....."

Cao Yuan secretly thought in his heart.

"Ding! The host will be rewarded with ten [Nine Turns Bear Snake Pill] (non-fatal injuries can be cured immediately)."

Cao Yuan's eyes burst out with a fine light.

Non-fatal injuries!

That means that as long as you are not beheaded and pierced through your heart, and you don't die on the spot, even if you only have one breath left, you can be saved.

This is the elixir that can really bring the dead back to life!

"With this Nine Turns Bear Snake Pill, there is another life amulet, not bad...."

Cao Yuan was secretly happy in his heart, so he put this divine pill into the storage space.

"Yes, Junko, I'm win!".

Xiahou Juan smug screamed in his ears.

Cao Yuan's thoughts retracted, but when he saw this cold and glamorous young general, a hearty smile rarely appeared on his face at this moment, which was completely different from the usual cold and frosty.

She looks like this, but she looks quite moving.

"It's not unacceptable to marry her, right..."

Cao Yuan has already begun to accept Xiahou Juan in his heart.

"Cao Ziyou!".

A familiar voice sounded behind him.

Xiahou was shocked, and the cards in his hand immediately fell out of his hand, and he looked back in a hurry.

I saw that Cao Cao didn't know when, he was already standing outside the gate of the courtyard, and was being stopped by Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen.

"Uncle!".

Xiahou Juan was taken aback and hurriedly stood up.

"Why is he here?".

Cao Yuan's brows furrowed, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.

This haunting king has nothing good to do every time he comes to the door, either to ask for advice from himself, or to ask for bribes, and he has to spend a lot of money every time.

This time, I'm afraid I'll have to cut the meat again...

"Master Wang is not enjoying happiness in Beijing, why did he come to this Feng County?"

Cao Yuan had a smile on his face and motioned for Yan Yunwei to let him go.

Cao Cao walked in with a solemn face, followed by Dian Wei and Guo Jia as usual.

Seeing that Cao Yuan and the others were still in the mood to play, his face couldn't help but become gloomy.

"Cao Ziyou, Cao Ziyou, the lack of salt in Yanyu and Henan is so short that your eyebrows are burned, you still have such leisure and leisure, you are really calm!".

Cao Cao split his head and covered his face, and he complained.

Listening to his tone, he obviously also knew that he refused to buy Mi's sea salt.

This is a rush to come and come to Xingshi to ask for guilt.

"Then Liu Bei took advantage of the danger of others, sat on the ground and raised the price, and wanted to make huge profits from Cao Gong, of course the lower officials couldn't let Cao Gong suffer. "

Cao Yuan said unhurriedly, and easily added him a cup of tea.

Cao Cao drank it all in one go, and his eagerness calmed down slightly.

He then questioned again: "Even so, didn't you buy 50,000 stone sea salt before, but why didn't you send it back to Xudu for a long time?" "

"Well..."

Cao Yuan's fingertips scratched his forehead.

"You're not going to take it again, are you?"

Cao Cao immediately became alert.

Cao Yuan coughed dryly and said, "You can also say that." "

"You're too bold!".

"The salt shortage in Yanyu and Henan is so serious that it has reached the point where the people's hearts are boiling, and if it is not alleviated, it will provoke a civil uprising!"

"These 50,000 stones of sea salt are the key to appeasing the people's hearts, how dare you swallow them privately?"

Cao Cao asked excitedly.

He was also too anxious, and completely forgot the first few times, after Cao Yuan privately swallowed grain and grass and war horses.

Cao Yuan's face was calm, and after patiently listening to his questioning, he smiled faintly: "Don't worry, come with me." "

With that, Cao Yuan got up and left.

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, and after hesitating for a moment, he had to follow Cao Yuan.

Cao Yuan took him out of the county government and went straight to the west of the city, a salt warehouse he built privately.

"Zhongkang, tell them to open all the doors of the warehouse!"

Cao Yuan waved his hand and ordered loudly.

Xu Chu drank Yan Yunwei and opened all the salt warehouse doors.

Cao Cao looked at the salt warehouse in front of him, and for a while he didn't realize what his intentions were.

Guo Jia behind him was already pinching his fingers and calculating.

Suddenly.

Guo Jia's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "Division.... Lord, there are 100,000 stone salt in this warehouse!".

Cao Cao's body was shocked, and his originally gloomy and suspicious face was replaced by surprise in an instant.
