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

Cloth warehouse attacked?

And was set on fire?

Cao Yuanjian's eyebrows condensed, and he immediately guessed a few points.

The crowd was amazed.

Xu Chu jumped up and scolded: "What kind of thief, such a dog, dare to attack the official warehouse?"

"Prepare your horses, go and see. "

Cao Yuan drank all the wine in the cup, and then got up unhurriedly.

Get on the horse, leave the house, and go straight to Bucang.

When he arrived, Xiahou Yuan, who had heard the news, had already arrived with his soldiers and horses, urging the soldiers to extinguish the fire.

"Xiaguan has seen General Xiahou. "

Cao Yuan stepped forward and arched his hand slightly, asking, "What's going on?"

Xiahou Yuan said in a deep voice: "A group of masked thieves suddenly attacked the rag warehouse and set fire everywhere, I have ordered the four gates to be closed and those daring thieves to be hunted down!"

"The cloth is heavy, and General Xiahou will not send heavy troops to guard it?"

Cao Yuan asked, and there was a lot of criticism in his tone.

Xiahou Yuan was speechless.

He has a word of suffering.

Cao Cao had informed Xiahou Yuan in advance that Cao Yuan was the financier and scheming man behind him, and also told him that Xiahou Juan, who had been "missing" for a long time, was married to Cao Yuan.

And Cao Cao sent him to Fengcheng, obviously to monitor Liu Bei's movements nearby, but in fact to protect Cao Yuan.

In order not to arouse Liu Bei's vigilance, Cao Cao only gave him 1,000 soldiers and horses.

Half of Xiahou Yuan was used to defend the city, and the other half was all deployed near Cao Yuan's private residence.

In this way, where does he still have extra heavy troops to guard the warehouse.

"This is a dereliction of duty. "

Xiahou Yuan couldn't say it clearly, so he had to take the responsibility.

Cao Yuan comforted again: "General Xiahou doesn't have to blame himself, who would have thought that Liu Bei couldn't afford to lose, so he would secretly send someone to burn our cloth warehouse." "

"Liu Bei?"

Xiahou Yuan was shocked and asked urgently, "You mean, those thieves are Liu Bei's subordinates?"

"We dumped cloth at a loss, cutting off Liu Bei's financial route, and it is not surprising that he came to burn our cloth. "

Cao Yuan sneered and broke the mystery.

Xiahou Yuan suddenly realized, and immediately became angry, and scolded: "What a big-eared thief, the cloth can't sell us, and it makes such a disgraceful means!"

"The dog just jumped off the wall. "

Cao Yuan pointed to Bucang: "General Xiahou, don't be in a hurry to get angry, it's important to put out the fire first." "

Xiahou Yuan came back to his senses, did not dare to delay any longer, and personally led his troops into the fire.

This fire burned for half a night.

It was only when the sky was bright that the fire was finally extinguished.

Cao Yuan stepped into the ruined cloth warehouse and asked someone to count the losses.

Fifty thousand horses of linen were burned clean, and there was not a single horse left.

"Husband, these 50,000 pieces of cloth are burned, and your strategy will be in vain!"

Xiahou Juan frowned, his eyes were unwilling.

Cao Yuan hurriedly glanced at Xiahou Yuan and said, "Madame, what she said is wrong, where is my strategy, it is obviously a plan offered by our uncle for Sikong." "

Xiahou Juan was stunned, looked back at Xiahou Yuan, and then reacted.

This is because Xiahou Yuan is present, and he doesn't want to be mistaken for thinking that he is the one who really offers advice.

Xiahou's uncle and nephew glanced at each other and smiled secretly in their hearts.

Xiahou Juan had no choice but to pretend to agree: "It's the concubine who said it wrong, this plan was naturally thought up by the uncle, but it's a pity that the uncle's plan is about to be cracked by the big-eared thief." "

Xiahou Yuan sighed and blamed himself: "This is all my dereliction of duty, I will ask Sikong for my guilt." "

"Who said this ploy would be a failure? "

A mysterious sneer flashed in Cao Yuan's eyes.

Xiahou Juan was stunned for a moment, and said blankly: "These 50,000 pieces of cloth have been burned, and it is too late to raise them from various states, isn't this a failure?"

"The big-eared thief burned 50,000 of our cloths, and I thought we were helpless, but I wanted to surprise him. "

Cao Yuan beckoned Xu Chu to his side and explained in his ear.

Xu Chu's spirits perked up, and he said strangely: "Ziyou, where did you get the five-"

"The old rule, you don't have to ask, just do it. "

Cao Yuan smiled and interrupted Xu Chu.

Xu Chu laughed and said, "Okay, okay, I'll do it, let's give the big-eared thief a big surprise!"

Xu Chu, who was instructed by Cao Yuan, rushed away impromptuly.

"Husband, what do you mean by giving a surprise to the big-eared thief?"

"What did you confess to Xu Zhongkang?"

Xiahou Juan's eyes were full of curiosity, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Within a month, Madame will naturally understand. "

Cao Yuan smiled secretly, but wrapped her waist around, "I haven't slept all night, I'm sleepy for my husband, let's go back to the house and rest." "

Xiahou Juan was full of suspicions, so he had to conjecture and go with Cao Yuan.

"The cloth is burned out, what else can he do?"

"I want to see if my niece and son-in-law are as powerful as Meng De said. "

Xiahou Yuan looked at Cao Yuan's back and muttered to himself.

...

Xiao Pei.

In the main hall, Liu Bei was pacing with his hands in his hands, and the word anxiety was written on his face.

He was waiting for Zhang Fei's return.

"Big brother, don't worry, there are only a thousand soldiers and horses in Fengcheng, and Yide will lead a hundred elites to succeed. "

Guan Yu stroked his beautiful hair and was extremely confident in his third brother.

Sun Qian also said with relief: "Xiahou Yuan and that Cao Yuan would never have thought that we would burn their cloth, and most of them would not be strictly guarded, General Yide's trip will definitely be successful." "

Liu Bei's anxiety calmed down slightly, but he said: "That Cao Yuan, I always feel that it is not simple, Yide is going, I am still a little worried." "

The voice fell.

Zhang Fei smiled and strode forward.

"Wing De is back!"

Liu Bei perked up and asked urgently, "Yide, have you succeeded?"

Zhang Fei arched his hand and smiled: "Brother, don't worry, I attacked the Fengcheng cloth warehouse, and burned the 50,000 pieces of cloth of the Cao thief with a fire, and there is not a single horse left!"

In the lobby, there was a sense of joy immediately.

A big stone in Liu Bei's heart finally landed.

"Okay, good, Yide, you've done a great job!"

"Cao Thief's cloth is burned out, now we can sit back and relax!"

Liu Bei was relieved and couldn't help laughing.

Sun Qian also smiled and said: "The cloth business of the Mi family can continue, and the military salary has also been solved, and the lord should marry the daughter of the Mi family as soon as possible, which is just a double happiness." "

Liu Bei laughed, his face was already full of spring breeze.

...

It's been ten days in the blink of an eye.

Inside the main hall.

Liu Bei sipped a little wine and listened to Sun Qian's report on the preparations for the big wedding.

"This wedding, the scenery that is going to be held, shows that I attach importance to the Mi family. "

Liu Bei said with a smile.

Sun Qian hurriedly said: "Don't worry, the lord will arrange everything properly, keep it to the satisfaction of the Mi family, and let the Mi Zizhong brothers feel the favor of the lord." "

Liu Bei nodded slightly, very satisfied.

Guan Yu stroked his hair and smiled: "Mi Zhu marries his sister, he will definitely send hundreds of millions of family fortune as a dowry, with this dowry, plus the money from the Mi family selling cloth, my brother will be able to recruit troops and expand the army, and he will have the confidence to fight with Cao Thief." "

The voice fell.

Mi Zhu came in a hurry, and when he entered the gate, he even tripped under his feet and almost fell.

"Why is Zizhong so flustered?"

Liu Bei looked at his face and suddenly had an ominous premonition.

Mi Zhu said in a trembling voice: "Lord, something happened, something happened to my Mi family's cloth business!"

Liu Bei's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said: "Cao Thief's cloth has been burned by Yide, what else can happen to your Mi family's cloth business?"

"General Yide burned their linen, but Cao Yuan didn't know what means he used, and he actually took out 50,000 horses of Shu brocade and dumped them at a low price, which was lower than the linen cloth. "

"Now the people of all counties are crazy to rob Cao Yuan's Shu brocade, and my Mi family's cloth is still unattended!"

Mi Zhu made a bitter face and explained the reason.

Liu Bei was stunned.
