"It's not beautiful..." Xiahou Hui glanced at Wei Ba and said quietly: "It's just a stunning one."
"How about you?"
"I'm not half as good as her."
Wei Ba smiled, raised his hand and rubbed his nose. He felt that Xiahou Hui's statement was a bit exaggerated. Although Xiahou Hui was not as beautiful as Xiahou Hui, he was also a middle-class person. If he was twice as beautiful as Xiahou Hui, it would be
What does it mean? Big Qiao and Xiao Qiao or Diao Chan? Such a beautiful woman will have no reputation at all?
"Yuanrong, since you know her so well, who do you think is more suitable?"
Xiahou Hui was stunned for a moment, turned to the opposite side of Wei Ba, and blinked: "Husband, who else is suitable besides you? Cao Hong did this obviously because he hoped to marry his daughter to you so that he could climb up to your big tree.
.He is an important official of the Wei State. How much impact has he had on the people of Wei State had on the hearts of the Wei State? You don’t know, right?”
"I'm fine." Wei Ba shook his head: "I have you three, I'm already satisfied, I'll be happy to accept others if I don't have the blessing." He waved his hand and signaled Xiahou Hui not to persuade him again. His appreciation for the beauty
As for this, he was not so possessive, not to mention that he knew that he had already had many difficulties in taking Xiahou Hui as his concubine, and he might have more troubles in taking Cao Hong's daughter.
The most important thing is that he has no interest, not only he has no interest in beauty, but also has no interest in the political impact of getting married to Cao Hong. In his opinion, he has enough strength now and does not need to be married at all.
Form gangs.
"Who do you think is more suitable?" Wei Ba said seriously: "I believe Cao Hong will not think that I am neglecting him for your suggestions. I believe you will not be unfavorable to him."
Xiahou Hui was surprised to see that Wei Ba was not like joking, but she felt a little relieved. On the one hand, Wei Ba was content and was not greedy for beauty. On the other hand, Wei Ba knew Cao Hong’s intention and wanted to choose a suitable one.
The candidates to marry Cao Hong and listen to her advice, which is trust and value for her.
"Of course it's someone you can trust." Xiahou Hui said slowly: "Of course, your identity cannot be too low, at least you must be worthy of the identity of Cao Hong, the general of the cavalry."
Wei Ba thought for a long time, but he didn't expect a suitable candidate.
"Why don't you ask your sister? Maybe she has the right person?"
"Guan Xing?" Wei Ba immediately understood Xiahou Hui's intention. Guan Xing had already taken a concubine and gave birth to a child, but he did not have a suitable woman to be a wife. For these nobles, finding a woman to have a child is not very old.
The problem. But finding a suitable woman to be a wife is not a trivial matter. There are many issues to consider. If Guan Xing marry Cao Hong's daughter, not only will he get closer to Wei Ba in the future, but Guan Feng and Xiahou Hui
It can be more harmonious.
"This is a good idea." Wei Ba nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "You can have fun with your sister first, and then talk to Cao Fu, so don't let him think I don't give him face."
Peng Xiaoyu came over and handed a document to Wei Ba, and said with a smile: "If you want Cao Fu to be satisfied, just reduce the price of the fire bomb a little, so that he can make money and get the money back when he returns.
Everything is good. It’s easier for my sister to speak when she goes to say it.”
Wei Ba pretended to be angry and said, "You said it lightly. If you lower the price, it's all money."
"Small profits and quick turnovers." Peng Xiaoyu was not afraid, and covered her mouth and smiled: "Wei State wants to fight on two fronts. They will need a large amount of fire bombs, and this little money can always be earned back."
Wei Ba took out the official document and opened it, saying, "You always make sense. Yuanrong, go and negotiate, you can decide the price, just don't be lower than Wu State. Otherwise, I can't explain it to Lu Xun."
"Oh." Xiahou Hui looked at Peng Xiaoyu gratefully, stood up happily and left. When she went out, Wei Ba's face darkened. He put the official document in his hand on the desk, put the hand in hand and held it against him.
His chin and eyes narrowed slightly, and he sneered: "Jiang Weizhen regards himself as the Prime Minister's heir. His tone is even bigger than that of the Prime Minister. He has a million words. He thinks it rains all over the world?"
Peng Xiaoyu didn't say anything and looked at Wei Ba quietly. The letter came from Guanzhong, nominally the order of the Prime Minister's Office, but the writer was Jiang Wei, without the signature of Prime Minister Zhuge Liang.
"How should I reply to him?"
"Send him a hundred samples." Wei Ba returned the official document to Peng Xiaoyu, pondered for a moment, and asked again: "What are your good ideas?"
"Switch the war horse." Peng Xiaoyu said slowly while taking the official document: "Each person takes the needs and exchanges equally. He will not give him a handle, nor will he take advantage of it. If you eat here, you can just eat here.
Refusal, what should he do if he deducts his father’s military resources? Besides, there is no need to make money with kindness, so don’t tear the face."
Wei Ba thought about it and felt that Peng Xiaoyu was right. If he refused in his own way, relieving the qi is to relieve the qi, but it would make people feel that it was ignorant of the general idea. He had to exchange the Fiery Bomb for war horses and exchange it equally, this method was more comprehensive.
After Xiahou Hui and Guan Feng discussed, Guan Feng agreed to let Guan Xing marry Cao Hong's daughter. Wei Ba asked Yang Xiu again, and he wrote a comprehensive reply letter with gorgeous words and sent someone.
Sent out.
...
Cao Fu looked at the brand new sea ship with a proud belly. This sea ship was the first batch of sea ships launched by Hepu Shipyard. It has exquisite workmanship, advanced technology, and especially excellent wind and wave resistance. With this ship
, He can drive away from the coast in the future, and those pirates who plundered near the sea have no choice but to do anything about him.
Although it is somewhat regrettable that he failed to marry Wei Ba as he wished, it is also a good choice for his sister to marry Guan Xing. Guan Xing is Guan Yu's son, with a marquis, and now he is a general who commands thousands of troops. Guan Feng is
Wei Ba's wife, the close relationship between the Guan family and the Wei family is beyond doubt. If your sister can marry Guan Xing, she will be a relative of Wei Ba in the future, and this wealth path will be wider.
What made Cao Fu even more satisfied was that after getting married, he got the best price: 450 yuan per fire bullet, and the shipping fee was self-paid. This is the price given to him personally. If he doesn't have to do with the documents, he can do this in this
On the basis of this, if you sell it to Cao Rui at a higher price, it will be his profit.
He decided to increase the price by one hundred yuan per piece. In this way, 300,000 yuan is a profit of three thousand gold, so rich that it makes people wake up laughing in their dreams.
Cao Fu was very satisfied. The task Cao Rui gave him was that it would be best to talk about less than 600 yuan. He not only completed the task successfully, but also made a big profit. The difference in the advance deposit was enough to buy a new sea boat.
.
My father still has a unique vision. Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of a way to marry Wei Ba. From a business partner to a relative, the money would be easier and his future wealth would be more secure. Even if it is As slow as Cao Fu could see that although Wei Ba was not a powerful minister who was the only one in Shu Han, this day would come sooner or later. Moreover, it was impossible for Wei or Wu to unify the world in the end, but it could only be Shu Han.
Building a good relationship with such a promising person is the most conscientious investment, just like my father invested in Emperor Wu Cao Cao.
"Brother Cao, are you satisfied with this boat?" Chen Zhi said to Cao Fu with a smile. Although he is a few years older than Cao Fu, he is very clear about Cao Fu's background and knows that Cao Fu will definitely become Wei Ba's in the future. The guest of honor, so he reduced his identity and deliberately brought close contact with Cao Fu to call him brothers. Before, in order to buy a new ship from him, Cao Fu didn't even give him a good look. It’s hard to even meet, how could you be as intimate as you are today?
"What if there is anything else to say in the ship built by Chen Dajian?" Cao Fu knew Chen Ge's intentions and said with a smile: "When I use this boat to send my sister to you and become a kiss with Guan Junhou, then I will definitely invite you to drink to express my gratitude.”
"Then I'll wait." Chen Zi laughed generously. After a moment, he pretended to be very casual: "The Cao family is a royal family of the Wei State, and the cavalry general is a high-ranking general of the Wei State. The family is noble and noble. Second, Ling Mei is extremely intelligent and comparable to ordinary people. I can’t afford to give this gold, silver, pearls, jade, etc., and probably won’t be able to catch Ling Mei’s eye. This is really scratching my head. I wonder if Brother Cao can give me some advice?"
"You are wrong." Cao Fu laughed and said, "Our family is all ordinary people, and my sister is no exception. It would be better for you to give a lot of money."
Chen Zhiwan'er smiled and turned around and took a brocade box from his hand: "I really don't have money, but I got a pair of agarwood paperweights and gave it to Cao Jun. If it can still be used, I will give a book case in the future. As a gift, please don’t think it’s too bad.”
Cao Fu was shocked. Agarwood is relatively small. How much is the book case made of agarwood worth?
Chen Zhi was very satisfied with Cao Fu's shock. He leaned into Cao Fu's ear and whispered: "Please keep it secret. General Wei is jealous of the corrupt people. Although I am not corrupt, I have found a bargain. Yes, it is inevitable that General Wei will find out some trouble."
Cao Fu looked at Chen Ge meaningfully, laughed and said nothing. He understood Chen Ge's meaning. There was a lot of rare wood coming and going in and out of the shipyard every year, and Chen Zhi used his position to get the best agarwood, but I dare not use it. Now I want to use it to please the Guan family and detour to please Guan Feng. This idea is really far-reaching.
It seems that Xiahou Xuan is not wrong to say that this man is a villain. Cao Fu was smiling on his face, but he was thinking in his heart that it might not be a good thing to be too close to this guy. Wei Ba uses him now, which does not mean that he will continue to do so in the future. With him, such a corrupt villain will be dealt with sooner or later. Cao Cao issued three orders to seek talents, and he had to use talents regardless of the consequences. In the end, the court will still be the world of aristocratic families, and it will be difficult for those who have moral deficiencies. A great thing happened. Wu Zhi helped Emperor Wen so much. He held heavy troops during his lifetime and was powerful for a while. He died but had nothing, and even got an "ugly" posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthu , it is not advisable to be too close.
"My sister doesn't know the literature and ink, so she probably can't use the book case." Cao Fu laughed: "I don't even think she can use this paperweight, and she may have to let down the grand magistrate's good wishes."
Chen Zhi was not angry, and laughed with Cao Fu, smiling very calmly. He actually knew very well what kind of person Cao Fu's sister was.
