Three Kingdoms: Gou Shen I was overheard by Cao Cao

Page 135

I just finished my work today, so I wrapped myself in furs and brought Zhao Yun and Xunyu to his home.

"Why is there no food again? The consumption is so strong?"

Xia Houzhe is making a snowman with the three girls.

"What do you think? Although there are not many soldiers in Neihuang Dunqiu and Dongwuyang, they can be self-sufficient, but Chen Liu still has [-] troops! With horses, he can eat more than [-] grains a day!"

"The millions of catties I got from Li Yang won't last long! If I didn't eat them while buying them, they would be gone! By the way, when will your new product be ready?"

Cao Cao glanced at him angrily, this is not knowing how expensive Chai Migui is in charge of the family!

Although it has only been a few months since the autumn harvest, food is not expensive, but it can't support the large quantity!With 300 soldiers, there are more than 1500 million catties of grain in a month!Need about 2000-[-] gold!

(ps: In the Han Dynasty, a stone was about 60 catties, and a stone of corn was 220 Wen. A stone of good rice was 400-600 Wen.)

And Xia Houzhe's winery produces tens of thousands of bottles of fine wine a month, too much for fear of slow sales, after all, it is a product aimed at the upper class.

Relying on the winery, Cao Cao, a treacherous middleman, can probably get four thousand gold a month from Mi Zhen.

Chen Liu was not rich at all, and he didn't harvest too much grain in the autumn harvest, so nearly half of his income was used to buy grain!

But... as long as the rice and sweet potatoes are harvested next year, he will be able to attack those aristocratic families!

At that time, the whole Chenliu will belong to him alone!

"Hurry up! Hurry up!"

"That's what you answered me a month ago! Are you reliable or not?"

Cao Cao looked helplessly at the salted fish in front of him.

Ever since he got the Wanguan family property, this guy has become more and more lazy, staying at home all day, even Zhao Yun, Guo Jia and the others asked him to go out to drink flower wine, but he didn't go.

"Don't worry, the first batch of trial ones have already been prepared, and they will be put into production after the beginning of spring. After all, it's a bit cold now, so I don't want to move!"

Without hesitation, Xia Houzhe took Lu Lingqi's frozen red hand, put it to his mouth and breathed, to keep her warm.

Such behavior made Cai Yan envious, and she kept sighing in her heart, this man is so heart-warming and considerate!

When it was over, he went into the room and took three sets of things and gave them to Cao Cao and the others.

"I made these two new ones, but they're just a few sets, and I'll share them with you! They're old guys, so I can't be stingy!"

Looking at the two bricks that looked like suet white jade in their hands, the three of them looked at each other in blank dismay.

It looks good!It is also smooth to the touch, soft in texture, and has a fresh fragrance.

Cao Cao looked at the big 'brick' in his hand, picked it up and knocked a brick on Xun Yu's head, but it broke.

Provoking Xun Yu to look at each other angrily, dare not speak out!

My heart keeps feeling sad, am I still your chief adviser?Are you not afraid to knock me into a fool?

You are a 'merciful' master!There are too many advisers under his command, so he is gone, right?

When I was needed before, I was called Xun Zifang!I'm not needed now, I'm Xun Tietou?

Cao Cao ignored his resentment, picked up the small one and smelled it, and found that it was quite fragrant.

So he opened his mouth and took a bite, and immediately spit it out.

"Brother, what's the use of this thing? I don't think he's tough enough for fighting! The other one smells good, but it doesn't taste good at all!"

Seeing Cao Cao's new look, Xia Houzhe and the three girls rolled their eyes together.

"The big one is called soap, it's used for washing clothes, it can wash away most stains! Make your clothes clean!"

"The small one is called soap, which is used to wash the face and remove oil! It can also moisturize the skin! At your oily age, you should go to remove oil! And after washing your face and bath, it will make you smell good!"

Hearing the introduction, Cao Cao was slightly taken aback.

"This thing...does it work? Can it be sold?"

Hearing this, Cai Yan smiled lightly.

"Brother! This soap is a treasure! Our three sisters like it very much! After taking a bath, the skin will not be dry in winter, and it will become smoother! And the whole body smells delicious."

After Cai Yan finished speaking, he shifted his gaze to Xia Houzhe, with admiration in his eyes.

Since the soap came out, it has become their treasure directly!I use it every time I take a bath, and it takes half an hour to rub it.

Seeing the expressions of the three girls, Cao Cao understood!This thing is especially popular among women!

Xun Yu also showed surprise, delicious?I like!I want to become a fragrant man!

"Yuan Yi, how much do you plan to sell this for in the future?"

After Xia Houzhe finished making the snowman's head, he replied casually.

"One gold! Anyway, it's for the rich!"

Hearing this, Xun Yu and Zhao Yun gasped. Does this guy start with gold?

Laozi struggled for a year, only worth ten pieces of soap?We are so worthless!

So how much money does he have now?

Hiss...or...is this official wrong?Follow along to do business?

"One gold? Hey, brother! Let's discuss it!"

"I'm not negotiating. I'll give you a discount this time, Sanqi! I'm too lazy to waste this little money!"

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, talking so loudly now?

Then he was pleasantly surprised: "I am seven and you are three? This discount is really awesome!"

Xia Houzhe glanced at him, and he didn't know where he had the face to speak like that!

I don’t need money for alcohol?Spices don't cost money?Oil free?

"I'm afraid you are thinking about farting! You are three!"

In fact, theoretically, he could skip Cao Cao's stage and directly cooperate with Mi Zhen.

But smart people won't do this. Having someone in power join the group can save countless troubles!

Not only will it not make Cao Cao afraid, but it can also use his hand to shake the scene!

And his relationship with Cao Cao is really good!Regardless of blood or name, they are all brothers of their own.

"Forget it, three is three! I'm at a disadvantage! Who told you to be my good brother!"

Cao Cao sighed, and lightly patted Xia Houzhe on the shoulder, as if I were very magnanimous.

Hearing this, even Xun Yu and Zhao Yun couldn't take it anymore, and complained wildly in their hearts.

My lord, your skin is thicker than the thickened Chenliu City Wall!How shameless!

"Huh? Brother, why do you and your brothers and sisters wear different clothes than mine? Don't you wear big leather jackets, aren't you cold? It looks so thin!"

Cao Cao reached out and touched Xia Houzhe's clothes, then his own thick leather jacket, and couldn't help asking questions.

Chapter 165 Zhao Yun Has a Wife

"Senior Brother Mengde! We are wearing down jackets specially made by Yuanyi! They are beautiful and warm. They are not like you. They are dressed like Xiong Xiazi. They are round and round."

Before Xia Houzhe could answer, Cai Yan smiled gently, with a look of pride on his face, and a hint of... showing off!

This kind of emotion appeared on such a gentle and delicate face that Cao Cao almost bit off his tongue.

Is this still my Junior Sister Zhaoji?

Cai Yan is used to living in Xia Houzhe's house, and she has written to his father to explain this in the past few months.

Cai Yong knew that she had been wronged at Wei's house, and after being picked up by Cao Cao, he didn't say much, but told her not to expose her, so as not to damage Cao Cao's reputation.

Hearing Cai Yan's joke, Cao Cao was not angry at all, and nodded softly to her.

down jacket?

What new thing is this?

The three of them looked at each other, this Yuan Yi's family has so many rare things, how did he think of it?

What a great inventor!Let him be a military adviser is Qucai!

Hmm...Tiannong is more suitable for him!Plant the fields and hire people to dig the ground!

"My dear brother, is this... expensive?"

"expensive!"

"Forget it, the leather clothes are still solid, I like this tone! I just don't know how it feels to wear this down jacket, this man! I have struggled for most of my life, but I haven't enjoyed it yet! Sigh! Life is hard!"

Cao Cao patted the coat on his body, showing no sign of shame on his face.

But the implication in the words is extremely obvious.

His eyes were fixed on Xia Houzhe's thin and soft clothes.

Xun Yu's face trembled for a while, and he realized that... the master of his family is very good at face!

Are you sure you are not reluctant to spend money because it is expensive?I actually want to go whoring for nothing once I come here!

Is it really alright for you to call your son a good brother?

"Okay! Brother, stop pretending! I still have a few more here, and I'll give them to you!"

Now that Xia Houzhe has money, he is not stingy anymore. It’s just a few down jackets, and he can do it later. It’s not bad for money!

After receiving the down jackets, Cao Cao and the three immediately changed into them. Once they were put on, the soft clothes were warmer than the big leather jackets!

Touching the clothes on their bodies, they felt novelty, not only comfortable but also beautiful!Never seen this style before!And it doesn't feel bulky at all.

Feeling the warmth of the down jacket, Zhao Yun hesitated for a while, pulled Xia Houzhe aside, and asked in a low voice.

"Yuanyi, do you...do you still have girls' clothes? I...I can buy them with money!"

Xia Houzhe glanced at him in surprise, suddenly understood what was going on, and his eyes became relieved.

My brother, you've got the hang of it!No longer straight man of steel!He has more prospects than Dian Wei!

Now Dian Wei and Wang Yue are hanging out together, discussing how to fish every day, not doing business properly, not seeking to make progress!It's just ruining the mood!

well!Such a good general, why was he brought down by that old king?

The two even ran to the latrine to get maggots for the bait!They are all stunned!

"Yes! She is about the same size as Zhaoji. I'll get you two for easy washing! Don't buy it between brothers!"

"I... I'm not for Huang Wudie, you... don't... misunderstand!"

Zhao Yun is embarrassing!Hastily defending himself, that handsome face turned red instantly.

"Come on! Who are you arguing for! I didn't even say it was Huang Wudie, you admitted it yourself! You can ask my brother, Gou or them, do you believe your words?"

"I don't believe it! With regard to Zilong and Miss Huang, who can I hide?"

"Also Yuan Yi! I'll say it again, my name is Xun Yu! Don't be so stubborn!"

Xun Yu was furious!Staring at the other party viciously, the whole person is about to run away.

"Good dog! I promise not to call you dog in the future, don't worry, dog!"

The veins on Xun Yu's forehead were throbbing. If Cao Cao wasn't there, he would have gone all out looking for this bastard!

The bickering between the two made the five onlookers laugh!

After receiving two sets of down jackets from Xia Houzhe, Zhao Yun thanked him gratefully.

Then he looked at Cao Cao hesitantly: "My lord, I..."

"Go, go! Life matters! Don't forget to ask us to drink!"

Cao Cao waved his hand generously, no one in Chen Liu would dare to do anything to him now, and he didn't care if he had guards or not.

Zhao Yun cupped his hands in great joy: "Okay! Thank you, Lord, Zilong is off work first!"

After finishing speaking, holding the soap and down jacket in his arms, he made the best of his feet, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Hehe, this little dragon! After being hunted down by Miss Huang, he has also fallen!"

Cao Cao shook his head, and Xun Yu agreed in agreement.

"That's right! Miss Huang has a wild temper, and she dares to pursue her when she decides. It's rare to see a woman chasing a man! No, the two of them are about to achieve a positive result!"
