It can be said that confronting aristocratic families is something that emperors of every era have to do, but the number of emperors who can truly subdue aristocratic families from ancient times to the present can only be counted on their hands. Chen Xi does not think that the fledgling Liu Bei can subdue these guys, even if there are
It is probably not possible for a time traveler to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune and have a vision beyond the times. After all, directly facing the aristocratic family at this time is not in line with the time traveler's instinct of seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune.
With two hands prepared, a carrot in one hand and a stick in the other, it would be great if Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping could crush the Zhen family's shop and let them understand the difference between princes and aristocratic families. If they apologize obediently, as long as they can get away with it, don't
Just let Liu Bei continue to simmer his anger.
If the Zhen family really has great hands and eyes, Chen Xi will have no choice but to personally take charge of it. Whether it is business squeeze, or a brazen attack to wipe out the upper echelon of the Zhen family, give the Zhen family a decent funeral, etc., Chen Xi can guarantee that even if
If Zhen Mi is really like Feng Yi, she will probably be reduced to someone else's plaything, and at most Yuan Shao would feel embarrassed and would not directly start a war with Liu Bei.
"Zichuan, how much money do you have? Since you joined Fenggao, you have been investing money and food continuously, and you haven't seen any return on your money yet, and you are still able to survive. Do we have so much money?" Jian Yong?
Seeing that Chen Xi was in a daze again as usual, and seeing that the autumn grain was about to come, he finally couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked. Even Zhao Yun on the side raised his head curiously after hearing Jian Yong's words. This matter belongs to Gaocheng.
people are very interested.
"Yes, there is a lot of money, and it is constantly increasing. What's wrong?" Chen Xi yawned and said, "Don't stand outside, Mr. Xuande. If you want to hear anything, come in. Everyone is probably very interested in this."
.”
"Hahaha." Liu Bei laughed, trying his best to hide the sarcastic look on his face, but seeing Chen Xi's whole body wilt, he didn't focus on himself, so he didn't laugh any more.
"Yes, many people now think that you, Chen Zichuan, are a money-splitting boy with countless money." Liu Bei laughed and laughed. If others don't know, how can he know that Chen Xi sits here drinking tea every day and reviewing some things?
There is no money to pull out a car from a certain place every day as rumored, but it does make everyone live and work in peace and contentment.
"I only have so many copper coins on hand." Chen Xi casually took off a brochure bag from his waist and threw it on the table with a clang. Chen Lan made it for him after he came to Fenggao. As for the one hanging on the left
The sachet was made by my wife Fan Jiancai. It is very delicate.
"What does Zichuan mean?" Liu Bei found a seat and sat down, looking at Chen Xi's money bag on the table and asked in confusion.
"It means I didn't invest a single coin in Fenggao. Fenggao's seemingly huge amount of money actually doesn't exist at all." Chen Xi sat up and said seriously, "Of course, the refugees we recruited continue to create value.
, so it looks like I’m constantly putting money into it, but in fact I have no money to put into it at all.”
Liu Bei couldn't understand, Jian Yong's eyes were dull, and Zhao Yun scratched his ears and cheeks.
"Well, to put it simply, you see, I pay them daily wages, right? Although it is not much, over time, more than ten million dollars have flowed out of my hands. But you have never thought about it, not only me
They are spending money, and the people who have made money are also spending money. After all, if you give them wages, you don't have to take care of dinner." Chen Xi said with a sigh, looking very decadent.
Still didn't understand, and several people still had blank expressions.
"I asked people to open a few steamed bun shops." Chen Xi said with a yawn.
This was something Chen Xi was forced to research because he couldn't stand dead-faced steamed buns. He also failed many times. However, things got much better after the first success. Compared with dead-faced steamed buns, it was a profitable industry that at least made a fortune.
The steamed buns are delicious and easy to digest when you are hungry, and no one knows that two or two large steamed buns do not require one or two to five flour, so the business is booming...
Moreover, the lunch provided by Chen Xi in the spirit of work can only be enough to satisfy people. Don't expect to eat well. The dead noodles are enough, and the millet porridge is barely enough to satisfy people. Compared with the steamed bun shop, the number of people who eat the lunch provided by the government is directly less than half.
, it’s the same meal. I didn’t have a choice before and I thought the official meal was pretty good. Now that I have a choice, why eat the dead-faced steamed buns that are as hard as rocks when the steamed bun shop has the same price as the official one? They also provide a small plate.
Pickles, um, the steamed bun shop opened by Chen Xi is even more prosperous.
After waiting for a while, the officials seemed to wake up. There were fewer and fewer people staying for lunch, so the officials negotiated with the steamed bun shop. The officials sent notes to the working refugees, and the refugees took the notes to the steamed bun shop.
Eating steamed buns in a shop is relatively cheaper because of the so-called large quantity and preferential treatment. Therefore, the refugees are grateful and the officials also save money on cooking lunch, and everyone is happy.
After that, Chen Xi took all the unemployed cooks who used to make lunch and opened steamed bun shops everywhere. As expected, everyone was happy. Most of the official family’s expenses were gone. The new refugees had no notes, only copper coins, and then they also agreed with him.
When a person is eating steamed buns and realizes that he spends tens of cents more than others in a month, he immediately quits and strongly demands to exchange the copper plates into strips. Well, he avoids running out of money again...
After a while, Chen Xi discovered that there seemed to be too many refugees and not enough money. Then one of the refugees discovered that Bai Tiao could actually eat steamed buns at a steamed bun shop at night. He didn't have to spend the same or even more money at home to eat any kind of hard and steamed buns.
Stone-like dead noodle buns...
This secret spread quietly, and then the salary was reduced. What Chen Xi had to do every day was to use his own seal to stamp the white paper he had just researched, and then let Zhao Yun chop it into neat pieces.
Ten pieces, Zhao Yun made this very neatly. More than a thousand pieces were placed on the table. Zhao Yun's sword flashed and it was done without damaging the table.
It is simply unreasonable that the paper with such a revolutionary history is treated as a general equivalent as soon as it comes out. It doesn't matter, anyway, no one can imitate it. Even if the paper is imitated, Chen Xi needs to stamp it. It is said that the private seal of the Han Dynasty seems to be from the Yi tribe? Maybe?
It is to punish the Nine Tribes. Anyway, it is better to forge this than to make small coins like Dong Zhuo. At least no one cares about it, and at most the people will be unlucky, and paper is considered reasonable as money.
To be honest, Chen Xi originally planned to have someone carve the words "Two Steamed Buns" out of wood. In the end, he found that this kind of slender wood seemed like he would have to stamp a lot of seals, so he simply used the seal of Liu Bei's General Anton.
It's relatively fast. After all, it's big enough. According to the standard price of one thin bun, which is equivalent to two steamed buns, Chen Xi said that he only needs to pay a small amount of salary every month, and this note is enough for everything else.
A small amount of wages is still money, what's going on with half a million people? Bandits and bandits changed their jobs and became refugees, and the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou near Mount Tai changed their jobs and became refugees. In short, there were more and more refugees. Later, the refugees changed jobs in Taishan and became Chinese. Taishan looked more and more
Come more and more prosperous.
So Chen Xi opened some shops selling daily necessities. Anyway, the entire Taishan County is under his rule. The bandits are all his Taishan bandits. They can do whatever they want. In this way, most of the copper plates sent out can be recycled.
, and then send it out, and the better thing about the store opened by Chen Xi is that it allows the use of white slips...
Just like this, more than 99% of the vendors have been killed. Isn't it a suicide to accept the general equivalent that can't be used outside Taishan? Is it possible to keep it in Taishan to exchange for steamed buns, and you can finish eating it?
To put it bluntly, if there is a vendor who is really willing to accept IOUs, Chen Xi will consider the character of that vendor. For example, Chen Xi, a well-behaved merchant like the Mi family, is willing to exchange grains for the IOUs. Like Zhen
Chen Xi doesn't mind giving them a warehouse worth of money for merchants who have offended Liu Bei. As a humanoid money printing machine, he has no pressure, so the Zhen family still knows how to run fast~
Chen Xi explained his previous actions to several people in detail, but Liu Bei and others were still confused. Looking at Chen Xi who was holding his head and groaning, he finally couldn't help interrupting Chen Xi.
"Stop, Zichuan doesn't understand what you are saying at all, but in terms of actual results, you are really powerful." Liu Bei cut off Chen Xi's speech and said with a confused look on his face.
"Sure enough, no one can understand. It seems that we must find an expert in internal affairs with an IQ of over 90. It's too lonely now." Chen Xi held his head and looked like a lonely expert.
"Why does Zichuan always look so tired? He always looks like he is drowsy." Liu Bei changed the topic. He felt that continuing to listen to the Book of Heaven was really challenging his limit. Anyway, no matter what method Chen Xi used, as long as
It's enough to build it, the other things don't seem to be important.
"I was sleepy in the spring, sleepy in the autumn, and slept in the summer. I lay under the quilt in the winter. Now I am in a state of autumn fatigue." Chen Xi said with a tired face, "But don't worry, Mr. Xuande, there won't be any big problems with government affairs." Chen Xi changed slightly as he spoke.
Try your best to make yourself comfortable in one position. This is the only bad thing about doing nothing. It is easy to fall asleep.
Liu Bei, Jian Yong, and Zhao Yun all looked at Chen Xi helplessly. Is this a reason? You have been sleepy for the whole year. You are a pig. You eat and sleep, and you eat when you sleep. I really doubt how you learned this skill.
Come out, is there really a so-called god like a dream?
"Report!" Just when everyone was in silence, a messenger rushed in and shouted loudly. In an instant, Chen Xi woke up. Zhao Yun and Liu Bei, two warriors with very good eyesight, clearly saw a trace of blood coming out of Chen Xi's body.
She was sweating a little, probably because she was frightened and woke up from a daze.
Chen Xi looked at the messenger below with solemnity. All the sleepiness that had been brewing was scared away, and he was scared to death. He sighed in his heart, "I can't sleep in the Government Affairs Hall anymore, it's too scary."
】
"Is there anything you want to report?" Chen Xi asked calmly.
"Mi Zizhong from Xuzhou and Lu Zijing from Linhuai are here to visit." The messenger replied loudly.
"Huh?" Chen Xi was startled, but then his face recovered and he was overjoyed, "Mr. Xuande, great wealth and great sages are coming."
