Chapter 228

Hot summer.

In this summer harvest season, the people in the Central Plains could not be happy.

Xuchang.

Cao Cao seldom had dinner with Xia Houyuan, Xiahou Dun, Cao Hong, and Cao Ren.

Xiahou Dun and the others admired Cao Cao very much when they saw the government affairs materials while eating.My lord has really worked so hard, and now I can have the second largest territory in the world, all thanks to my lord's hard work.

From the looks of it, that Yuan Tan should also work hard.

Cao Cao looked at the report and found that many places in various places had poor harvests, "Food...food."

"As long as there is food, no matter what other means Yuan Tan has, I can ignore it."

Historically, before Cao Cao regained the Northland, food had always been a problem, and today is no exception.

"If there is corn, the problem can be completely solved." Cao Cao looked at the bowl of corn porridge in his hand in a daze.

"My lord! My lord!"

A high-pitched call came from outside.

Cao Cao raised his eyes and saw Guo Jia running into the hall happily.

"My lord! Good news! General Huo Qing promised to give us the seeds!"

Guo Jia shouted, he was really excited, after such a long time of ideological work, he finally got through that seeded general named Huo Qing.

what! !

Great! ! !
"Ah! Wow!" Cao Cao jumped up, stomped his feet, waved his fists, and shouted to vent.

Xiahou Dun and the others looked at Cao Cao in surprise, they had never seen him so excited before.Obviously, how important it is to be able to get super seeds, so that we can also drink polenta and have a full meal in the future!
So the attendants were also infected, and they were all happy.

They also felt that the lord was so awesome that even the enemy's general guarding the seeds could handle it.

You must know that the person guarding such an important item must be a confidant in your heart. If it can be done, it must have cost a lot, right?
But it's worth it!
"Let's order the army to listen to the sowing work for the time being, but we have to dig the trenches and wait for the super seeds to come up, sow the seeds immediately!" Cao Cao shouted.

"My lord... My lord." Guo Jia signaled that he was not in a hurry to give orders.

"What's the matter?" Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and looked at it with a tricky look.

"My lord, it's like this. General Huo Qing needs a lot of bribes." Guo Jia whispered.

bribe?

Xiahou Dun looked at each other in blank dismay, but it was normal to ask for bribes.

Just don't know how much.

Why does it cost [-] yuan?
They also took the time to do the conversion, and if it is 1000 guan, it is [-] million yuan, which is really too much money.

"How much does he want?" Cao Cao asked coldly.After all, he was asked to bleed, even though there was a return, I was very upset.

"He wants... [-] million..." Guo Jia said cautiously.

suddenly.

Cao Cao's eyes tripled in size, and he couldn't believe his ears.

"What! 100 million! [-] million!" Cao Cao shouted in surprise, almost falling, "[-] million is [-] million, my tax for three to five years! How dare he want it!"

Xiahou Dun and the others were all astonished. This is [-] million yuan, which can fill this hall.

100 million is simply unbelievable for them. If it is them, they dare to ask for [-] million yuan at most.

If you want so much money, you are simply the number one corrupt criminal in history. No wonder the lord is so angry that he swears.

"It's so much money! Can he spend it all?" Cao Cao gritted his teeth.

Guo Jia said cautiously: "General Huo Qing said that if he does this, he will abscond for the rest of his life. If he absconds, he will need funds."

Absconding with [-] million is really a moving treasure chest.

Cao Cao's excitement disappeared, and he sat down quietly to think.

After thinking about it carefully, although a [-] million yuan is very painful, if you can get super seeds in large quantities, it is still worth it.

After all, super seeds can bring sustainable benefits.

But a one-time bloodletting of [-] million is really a pain in the liver.

"This is [-] million, okay, just give him [-] million!"

Cao Cao is the second prince in the world, and he can still raise [-] million in cash by selling pots and irons.

"but……."

Cao Cao keenly discovered a problem. You must know that he has been severely cracking down on the circulation of RMB under his rule, and now he doesn't have a dime in his hands.

Immediately realized the difficulty of not having foreign exchange reserves.

"Feng Xiao." Cao Cao looked over and said, "I heard that there are a lot of banknotes in many households. Go and prepare."

In the afternoon of that day, Guo Jia came to Xun's house, which was Xun Yu's original family.

The head of the Xun family of this generation is Xun Shuang, Xun Yu's uncle.

Xun Shuang is an outstanding figure of the older generation of the Xun family. He has successively served as Prime Minister of Pingyuan, Guang Luxun, and Sikong, and was promoted to the position of Sangong in 95 days.

The Xun family has been officials for generations and is the largest family in Yuzhou.

The hall was over, and Xun Shuang warmly received Guo Jia.

a while.

"what!"

Xun Shuang stood up as soon as he knew Guo Jia's intention of coming, his white beard was calm and calm, and said seriously: "Military teacher, you are wrong. My Xun family firmly supports Mr. Cao, how can we do things that violate the law and discipline?" What about it? My Xun family doesn’t have a dime!”

"My Xun family wants to add luster to my nephew Xun Yu."

Guo Jia looked over and saw Xun Shuang's awe-inspiring expression, thinking that your Xun family didn't break the law and discipline, what bad things couldn't be done?As far as I know, your Xun family has at least 3000 million yuan in reserves.It is the largest trade between the Central Plains and the Northland.

But it is okay to be clear about many things in your heart, and you cannot say it clearly. This is politics.

Guo Jia left Xun's house depressed. It was late at night, and he went to more than a dozen houses, but he got the same answer from Xun's house.

These big households have been passed down for hundreds of years, and they are all very shrewd. Who dares to say that they have banknotes?Cao Cao ransacked your house as soon as he turned a corner, where should he go to reason?
So there are two words, nothing.

Cao Cao's residence.

"My lord, this is what it looks like." Guo Jia said with dark circles under his eyes.

Cao Cao also has dark circles under his eyes.

So on the second day, a decree was issued from Cao Cao's mansion.Under his rule, the control of the renminbi has been fully liberalized, and all various supervisory agencies have been abolished to show that there will be no changes overnight.

all of a sudden.

"how much is it?"

"One piece and two."

"I'll charge you two yuan, and I'll find you eight cents."

Cao Cao was horrified to discover that the RMB dominated the trading channels under his rule.

The one that started was also drawn.

On this day, Guo Jia came to Xun's house again.

Guo Jia came up with the condition of the loan, which was to provide corn seeds on a large scale.

You must know that if it is not provided on a large scale, large-scale planting will not be possible in ten or eight years.

After receiving Cao Cao's guarantee, Xun Shuang opened the warehouse, "There are 3000 million RMB here."

Guo Jia looked over with weird eyes, "Patriarch, didn't you say you didn't have any yesterday?"

Xun Shuang chuckled and said, "My Xun family fully supports Cao Gong. I heard that Cao Gong needs RMB. This was prepared overnight."

Guo Jia almost smoked it.

In this way, enough RMB was finally raised to bribe Yuan Tan's seed general, Huo Qing.
