Chapter 41 Qingzhou Yellow Turban Invasion(1/2)
The three of them came to Yang Ling's shop together and were surprised to see a huge crowd of people rushing to buy Maotai.
"Is this business so booming?"
Xun Yu said in surprise.
"It must be because his wine is good that he attracts so many people. It seems that there is good wine to drink today."
Xi Zhicai laughed and said.
At this moment, Guo Jia noticed a pair of vertical banners hanging on both sides of the wine shop.
"In ancient times, all the sages were lonely, only the drinkers left their names."
His eyes lit up,
"This is a good poem!"
"Yes, the person who could write this poem must be a talented person! I just don't know who wrote it."
Xi Zhicai also nodded and praised.
The three of them entered the wine shop and happened to see Yang Ling, the owner of the wine shop, drinking with Cao Cao and others.
"I've met my lord!"
The three of them hurriedly saluted.
"Today is a day off, so there is no need to be polite."
Cao Cao greeted them with a smile,
"Mr. Yang Ling sells good wine, you are lucky."
After a few people exchanged pleasantries, they found a place to sit down.
Seeing Yang Ling chatting happily with Cao Cao, Guo Jia's heart moved and he couldn't help but whisper to Xun Yu and Xi Zhicai,
"I didn't expect my lord to be so polite to Yang Ling, and even come to support him in person."
"So what?"
Xun Yu smiled disapprovingly,
"My lord is also a lover of fine wine. In addition, Yang Ling's two sworn brothers also made great achievements during the last battle against the Black Mountain Bandits."
"Yes, does Fengxiao still think that Yang Ling is the master?"
Xi Zhicai also asked with a smile.
Although there was no real evidence, Guo Jia still felt that Yang Ling was not as simple as he appeared.
By chance, the waiter brought the wine jar. He said nothing more and just invited Xun Yu and the others to drink.
When the clear wine exuding a strong fragrance was presented in front of the three people, they all looked moved.
"How can such clear wine exist?"
“Especially the wine aroma, it smells elegant and mellow!”
The three of them stopped talking nonsense and quickly raised their glasses and drank it down in one gulp!
Like Xiahou Dun and others, they were also choked by the spiciness of the entrance to Maotai.
But after the short period of spiciness, it is refreshing and dry, and even has a faint sweet feeling!
“It’s really a good wine!”
Guo Jia praised.
"I didn't expect Yang Ling to be able to brew such fine wine. I must have underestimated him!"
After a glass of fine wine, Xun Yu's perception of Yang Ling even changed a lot.
"Haha, I just said it, brother Wen Ruo doesn't want to look at people through the cracks in the door and look down on them!"
Guo Jia laughed and raised his glass,
"Here, have another drink!"
…
The sky darkened.
Yang Ling's residence.
He was lying cross-legged on the couch.
Opposite him, Zhao Yun was making calculations.
After finishing the calculation, Zhao Yun couldn't help but exclaimed,
"Brother, we actually made almost 100,000 yuan today?!"
You should know that one stone of high-quality rice only costs four hundred yuan.
An acre of good, fertile farmland costs about ten thousand yuan!
In other words, the money Yang Ling makes in one day is enough to buy more than 200 shi of rice, or ten acres of fertile land!
"Zilong, you are making such a fuss."
Yang Ling was not particularly surprised.
Although I can make so much money today because Moutai wine is delicious, there are other factors.
Firstly, the government banned wine making, so people didn’t drink alcohol for a long time.
Secondly, Cao Cao, who is the prefect, came to support us today.
Xun Yu, Xiahou Dun and other powerful nobles in the city also came to buy wine for his sake.
But even if the profit in the future is only 10% of today's, that will be enough.
After all, this is just a small Puyang City.
In the future, if the Maotai liquor business is expanded to Dongjun, even the entire Yanzhou, and even Xuzhou, Yuzhou, Qingzhou...
The profits from selling wine are astronomical!
Besides, I don't just know how to make wine, toilet water, soap, salt, etc.
But the prerequisite for making money is peace in the world.
Given the current situation where thieves are everywhere and the heroes are divided, how can I possibly make money?
Therefore, whether it is for Boss Cao or to make money, I must help him and develop as soon as possible so that he can dominate the world!
Yang Ling was suddenly ambitious!
…
the next period of time.
Yang Ling took Zhao Yun and started busy expanding the business of Moutai fine wine.
Cao Cao, after recruiting tens of thousands of Black Mountain bandits, sent the old, weak, sick and disabled to farm.
The remaining young and strong laborers were trained according to the military tactics provided by Yang Ling.
Within a month, although the combat effectiveness of these new recruits was still a bit low, they were able to follow orders and prohibitions, and they had the temperament of an elite army.
However, at this moment, Cao Cao received news that a large number of Qingzhou Yellow Turbans were invading from the east!
…
In the lobby.
Cao Cao sat in the hall, looked at the people below, and said slowly,
"What do you think about the Qingzhou Yellow Turban rebels and their invasion of Yanzhou?"
"There are millions of Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou, and it is not a good thing to attack with such force."
Xia Houyuan frowned.
At this time, Guo Jia smiled softly and said,
"In my opinion, it is a good thing for the Lord!"
Everyone looked stunned and didn't understand why he said this.
Guo Jia walked out calmly, cupped his hands towards Cao Cao, looked around at the crowd and said,
"If the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou don't invade, where should we develop based on the current situation?"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone, including Cao Cao, fell into deep thought.
To the north is Jizhou where Yuan Shao is located. Cao Cao still relies on him now, so it is naturally impossible for him to develop north.
To the south is Liu Dai, which occupies most of Yanzhou.
To the west is Hanoi County and the ruined Luoyang area.
To the east is Qingzhou where there are millions of Yellow Turban troops.
