Three Kingdoms: My Wife Is Diao Chan

Chapter 176

Chapter 177

Several families were happy and some were sad. When Zhuge Liang was treated differently in Liu Bei's place, Cao Chong's childhood in Luoyang began to flourish.

First of all, what he did was to invite the heads of the Du family and the Yu family to the county government to chat about life and imagine the future.

Du and Yu's life is not very easy now. They were oppressed too much by Sima's family back then, and they have no other advantages except to have more food than the common people.

Now that the Sima family has been destroyed, the family property, food, money, and real estate have all been distributed to the people by Cao Chong. Du and Yu are really worried that Cao Chong will also distribute their things to the people.

No, when I came to the county government, I was terrified.

Seeing this, Cao Chong smiled inwardly. It seems that destroying the Sima family has indeed achieved the effect of knocking mountains and shaking tigers.

"Two patriarchs, this junior is being polite." Cao Chong bowed to the two patriarchs.

The two patriarchs were flattered and returned the gift in a panic.

"Young master, you can't do it, you can't do it."

"That's right, young master, now that the two counties belong to Luoyang, we are also the people of your Luoyang order. How can there be a young master to salute us?"

Cao Chong smiled at the corner of his mouth and asked the two to sit down without any explanation.

"I invited two seniors to come to the county office today, not for anything else, but to give them a way to survive."

Survive?

Du and Yu, the two patriarchs, looked at each other with question marks all over their faces.

When Cao Chong dealt with the Sima family, he acted resolutely and with an iron fist, and did not give the Sima family a chance at all. Moreover, the two patriarchs could see how biased Cao Chong was towards the nobles.

Although the Du and Yu families are not big gentry, they are also small tyrants, and they are considered to be the gentry class.

It's hard to believe that Cao Chong wants to give these gentry a way out.

"Young master, stop joking with us. We will listen to you from now on. We will do whatever you ask us to do, and we will never refute."

"Yes, yes, we used to share the profit with Sima's family at [-] percent. At worst, we don't want that share, and give it all to the young master."

The Sima family of the dog day only divided one family between Du and Yu. The ass is really dark enough.

No wonder Sima Yi's old silver coin is extremely sinister. It seems that the Sima family has this kind of blood.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not the kind of black-ass person. As long as you earn money through legitimate means, I will never trouble you."

Cao Chong first set the tone here, and then entered the topic.

"I really want to cooperate with you two. You are big families in two counties. With your cooperation, I believe Luoyang will be rebuilt soon."

The rebuilding of Luoyang was no small matter. When the two patriarchs Du and Yu heard this, they immediately backed down.

"Young master, we are a small local family, how dare we take on such a heavy responsibility!"

Cao Chong knew the worries of the two, and explained: "I didn't ask you to rebuild Luoyang, I just want to entrust you with some projects, and they are guaranteed to be profitable projects."

Patriarch Du: "?"

Patriarch Yu: "?"

Can the little boy be so good?

Neither of them believed Cao Chong's words.

Cao Chong didn't care, and continued: "I have a cement factory and a steel bar factory, and I plan to let you two produce cement and steel bars."

"At that time, in the name of wages, I will pay you wages on a monthly basis. As for how you distribute them to the people below, that is your business, and I don't care."

"However, I have a condition. The wages allocated to the people below should not be too small, at least they must be able to afford food!"

This is Cao Chong's only condition and the only standard.

In this war-torn era, the only demand of the people at the bottom is to have enough food.

This is the only thing Cao Chong can do now.

The two patriarchs still didn't believe it. The reason why the Sima family lost was because Cao Chong dug a hole. They were very worried that Cao Chong was also digging a hole for his own family.

"Young master, please spare us, we really know we were wrong."

Why can't these two old guys listen to what they say.

"Don't worry, as long as you support me, I won't trouble you, and I'm really looking for a way out for you."

"Now the land in the two counties has been purchased by me. You don't have any land, and you have lost the Sima family's father, the benefactor. You can only sit and wait to die."

"And I will give you a way to survive. Go to the cement factory and the steel bar factory to work. You are the general contractor. When the time comes, you will let your family members work."

"I give you money, you give them money, and the rest is what you earn."

"If you don't make money, you are stupid!"

The two patriarchs Du and Yu are naturally not stupid, but they were frightened by Cao Chong.

Sima covered the sky with his hands in Jianxi County and Fulong County, but he was wiped out by Cao Chong within a day.

They are very worried that Cao Chong will also be against them.

"Young master, are you telling the truth?" Patriarch Du asked tentatively.

Cao Chong was upset for a while. If it wasn't for the lack of workers recently and the tasks given by the system, I would rather recruit workers from other places than cooperate with you.

"It must be the truth. If you don't believe me, I can prepay one month's project payment in advance."

Prepay?
The two patriarchs never expected that there would be such a good thing.

Seeing the money first is not the same as seeing the money later.

Get the money first and then work, even if something happens in the middle, you can get out of it.

If you give money later, the initiative is not in your hands.

"Since the young master's words are here for the sake of it, how about the two of us give it a try?"

Patriarch Yu asked Patriarch Du.

Patriarch Du nodded in agreement.

"Young master, since that's the case, we will obey you." Patriarch Yu said with a bow.

Cao Chong was delighted, "Hahaha, that's right, you just need to remember that if I have Cao Chong's meat to eat, I will have your bones to gnaw on!"

"Following me is definitely better than following the Sima family!"

"Xiahouba, take the money!"

To rebuild Luoyang, a large amount of cement and steel bars are needed. The Du family and the Yu family happen to be local masters. It is also a good thing to use the ready-made human resources.

Besides, working together as a family can also avoid many unnecessary disputes from outsiders. Anyway, the money is earned in the pockets of their own family.

After the Du family and the Yu family got the money, they were very excited and immediately signed the paper, saying that they would only hang out with Cao Chong in the future.

Cao Chong accepted the paperwork and felt happy.

Well done, mission accomplished.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the task. The reward is five hundred days of life, and the current life is [-] days."

Ok?
Why no extra rewards?

System, you are so stingy.

System: The system doesn't want to talk to idiots.

Cao Chong: "..."

your sister!

"Young master, let them go to the cement and steel factory, what if the technology leaks out?" Cao Yan was worried, after all, he was the deputy commander of the school affairs office.

Cao Chong said with a smile: "It's simple, the core technology is in our hands, they only need to do it, and don't teach others."

"In this way, they will be able to follow me forever, and it will be difficult for them to jump to his house."
