"Your Majesty still doesn't seem to understand what I mean."
He Yan was not angry when he heard Xun Yu's rejection.
"If your Majesty only sees those few hemp plants but does not see the fundamentals behind them, then your vision is a bit too short-sighted. This is not like the "my son's house" that Sikong praised."
"oh?"
Only then did Xun Yu become more interested: "How do you say this?"
"At this time, the price of land in the Central Plains was low. Many people began to sell their land at low prices in order to protect themselves. They wanted to go to Jiangdong, Jingzhou, and Shu to take refuge. If we could produce a large amount of cloth at this time to buy fields, we would definitely be able to buy a lot of fields.
Get it in hand."
"In this way, privately, you can gain a century-old family wealth, and publicly, you can improve the court's finances and make the warehouses abundant. Why wouldn't you do it?"
When Xun Yu heard what He Yan said, he felt that it was somewhat reasonable, but he did not agree directly. Instead, he asked who was the person who secretly blocked He Yan's acquisition of Xianma.
After He Yan told Xun Yu about Cao Ren's harvesting of grain and the resulting enmity, Xun Yu's eyes flashed slightly: "I see, then I know who is behind it."
"Oh? I wonder if your Majesty can help me clarify my doubts?"
"It's a grudge between the older generation. It's normal that you don't know about it."
Xun Yu singled out one person—Yuan Lang.
"Yuan Lang?"
"Yuan Lang and Bian Rang have an old relationship."
He Yan showed a clear expression.
Bian Rang, a famous scholar in the late Han Dynasty, was also the trigger for Cao Cao's loss of Yanzhou.
When Cao Cao came to Yanzhou, because of his background and the continuation of the "party ban" of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Bian Rang, as a scholar representative, naturally looked down on Cao Cao, who came from the eunuch party, and despised him. He also united with the scholars in Yanzhou to boycott Cao Cao.
Can Cao Cao endure this?
Can bear it!
And it lasts for two years!
It wasn't until the fourth year of Chuping (193) that Cao Cao couldn't bear it anymore, so he cut off the border.
With this cut, something happened.
The next year, Cao Cao sent troops to Xuzhou in order to avenge his father Cao Song. Representatives of the scholars in the rear, Dongjun garrison Chen Gong, Chenliu prefect Zhang Miao, Zhang Miao's brother Zhang Chao, Zhonglang Xu Si and Wang Kai and others
Together they conspired to rebel and welcome Lu Bu as the new shepherd of Yanzhou.
At that time, it was almost the most embarrassing moment for Boss Cao after so many years in his career. He even had no choice but to lead his troops to Zhencheng, Hebei Province to join Yuan Shao. If Cheng Yu hadn't persuaded him, Boss Cao's entrepreneurial history would have ended here.
Later, although Boss Cao showed great power and killed Lu Bu, Chen Gong, Zhang Miao and other chief culprits, the relationship between Boss Cao and the Yanzhou scholars, and even the scholars of the world, was finally forged.
So when He Yan heard that Yuan Lang had an old relationship with Bian Rang, he roughly understood what was going on.
"Is Yuan Lang so brave?"
Yuan Lang was not only a famous person who met Bian Rang, but also came from the Yuan family in Runan. Now that Cao Cao had broken up with Yuan Shao, he actually dared to act like this?
Xun Yu smiled and said nothing.
That's not how a knife is used.
So what if Yuan Lang is from the Yuan family? Isn’t Yuan Huan, one of Cao Cao’s little farming masters, also named Yuan? Can he kill them all?
He Yan scratched his head, obviously realizing that there was something wrong with his question.
"Now that I know who it is, I have an idea."
He Yan returned to the topic: "So, this matter of purchasing hemp..."
"Mr. He, Mr. He, I don't even know what to say."
Xun Yu finally asked his biggest question: "Master He said that I am short-sighted, but have you ever thought that your goal is too far?"
"Now Sikong is confronting Yuan Shao in Guandu. If he is not careful, he will be completely defeated. How can Mr. He still have thoughts about the future?"
At this moment, He Yan finally understood why Xun Yu was so hesitant.
Love is still the battle of Guandu!
He Yan immediately showed a confident smile: "Xun Lingjun is really worrying too much. In a few months, Sikong will be victorious!"
Xun Yu looked at He Yan, as if he wanted to see a flower on his face.
When Guo Jialin went on an expedition, he once asked Xun Yu to go to the nuvilion with him... no, it was to play chess and drink. At that time, Guo Jia said to Xun Yu: "Nowadays, everyone in Xuchang is in danger, even you and I have a layer of darkness in our hearts."
Wu, Mr. He is the only one who can’t see any anxiety at all, but instead has more confidence in Sikong than anyone else, how strange it is!”
Xun Yu was also curious at that time, so he asked: "Isn't it true that young people don't know the dangers of war?"
"Of course not."
Guo Jia did not think that He Yan, who could discuss the power of the world with him, was a fool: "He is indeed very confident, and seems to be sure of the outcome of this battle."
"But Mr. He seems to want to hide it and not tell him what he knows. I don't know what he is hiding. If there are difficulties in the war in the future, Wen Ruo can go to him to ask for an explanation."
"Um……"
…
…
At first, Xun Yu didn't take Guo Jia's words to heart.
But when he met He Yan this time, he realized how confident He Yan was! It was as if the war was over and Cao Cao had won a great victory!
A cunning look flashed through Xun Yu's eyes: "It's just a little bit of linen, Mr. He can take it if he wants."
"Thank you so much, your Majesty."
What He Yan didn't expect was that just after he thanked Xun Yu, Xun Yu, who had looked like an upright official just now, suddenly became a philistine and asked with kind-hearted cunning: "But my Xun Yu's thread is limited after all, so
I gave it all to Mr. He. How many pieces of cloth can Mr. He weave?"
"Ah this..."
Xun Yu's question made He Yan a little dumbfounded.
Why Xun's linen has a limited quantity? This is obviously a threat!
Is it possible that Xun Yu, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, also wants to receive kickbacks?
Fortunately, Xun Yu did not become the second celebrity from the Three Kingdoms who asked He Yan to break his filter after Zhao Yun. What he wanted was not the billions of dollars.
"To be honest, there is actually a lot of hemp in the treasury, but I don't know how long the war on the front line will last, so I don't dare to use it at will."
Okay, the filter is still broken...
Xun Yu, who has always been regarded as the humerus of the Han Dynasty, actually wants to embezzle the national treasury?
Only then did He Yan realize that the Xun Yu in front of him was not only Xun, the courtesan of the Han Dynasty, the head of the Xun family in Yingchuan, and the Shangshu Ling of the Han Dynasty, but also Cao Cao's logistics manager!
If he is willing to open the treasury to He Yan, doesn't it mean that all the wealth that Cao Cao has saved over the years will be used by He Yan?
He Yan's breathing was a little rapid. In this way, the problem of raw materials was completely solved! As long as the problem of labor force was solved, wouldn't He Yan be able to take off directly?
But He Yan also heard what Xun Yu meant.
He must know why He Yan is sure that Cao Cao will win the battle of Guandu! Only in this way can Xun Yu safely provide these things to He Yan!
