Three Kingdoms: My Wife Is Diao Chan

Chapter 219 I have something to discuss with Lao Cao
Chapter 220 I have something to discuss with Lao Cao
After hearing this, Xun Yu sighed and said, "Even if the young master is willing to make things easier for the court, the court still won't be able to spend so much money!"

Although Xun Yu said that he was getting more and more at odds with Lao Cao, but he was loyal to the Han court, although this matter might still fall into Lao Cao's hands in the end.

But it is indeed a very beneficial thing for the Han Dynasty, and he still hopes to succeed.

"Shang Shuling, in fact, the imperial court doesn't have to spend too much money at one time! Food, silk, gold, silver, copper, iron, and even livestock can all be discounted to the boy."

Xun Yu glared at him, how could he still not know Cao Chong's purpose?
"You have worked so hard to rebuild Luoyang."

"It's just how much grain and grass materials you think the imperial court can provide, and others may not be willing, and even if they are willing, they will vigorously lower the price..." Xun Yu said slowly.

"Actually, this kid has a way."

"Oh, let's hear it!"

"Those salt merchants have to pay taxes. You can let them use table salt instead of taxes, and it is stipulated that they must pay in advance and pay a certain amount of taxes before they can sell table salt."

"If you feel that mandatory regulations are not good, you can give them some incentives, such as pre-paying taxes in advance and reducing taxes by [-]%, so that businessmen can pursue profits, which should be feasible."

"You are quite insightful about these merchants' tricks!" Xun Yu didn't know whether to praise Cao or hurt him.

After Xun Yu and Cao Chong finished asking, they turned around and stepped forward to bow to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty.

"Your Majesty! After asking Mr. Cao, I think this method can be tried!"

After reporting to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, Xun Yu asked all the ministers in the court: "I don't know what you think?"

"I thought this method would work!"

Um!The answer is neat!
Lao Cao was watching covetously from the side, Xun Yu said it was feasible, who else would make himself uncomfortable?

Besides, Cao Chong's method is indeed worth a try.

"Since Shang Shuling and the prime minister think it is feasible, please ask the love ministers to draw up a specific charter!"

Emperor Han Xian said calmly, anyway, he has nothing to do with himself, and none of his subordinates can share his worries for him.

"Go back and write a detailed report." Xun Yu and Cao Chong confessed.

Just when Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was about to announce his withdrawal from the court again, Lao Cao spoke again.

"This operation still requires the joint efforts of many talented people to succeed. Since you have made a suggestion, is there any good talent to recommend?"

Good old Cao!

You see, when Xun Yu got the solution, he put the young master aside. If he appointed an official who didn't deal with him to manage the matter, wouldn't the young master shoot himself in the foot?

"Liu Ba and Fazheng are both good talents, they can take on this job!"

That's great, God Cao assisted and decided on the candidates.

After they all went down to the gate of the main hall, Zhou Hui chased after him in despair, grabbed Cao Chong's sleeve and shouted loudly: "Cao Chong, I haven't discussed anything with you..."

"Oh, Shaojian Zhou! Is there anything else you want to add about the salt administration issue? The prime minister hasn't left yet, so you can report it yourself. Don't worry, your contribution will never be obliterated."

"I will definitely be with Your Majesty and give you a big credit!" Cao Chong patted Zhou Hui on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Zhou Hui saw Lao Cao, who was full of murderous intent, looking at him coldly, his whole body shivered, and he sat down on the ground!

Tell you all to challenge the patience of the young master, and want to snatch the salt management right of the young master?The young master will give you a hard time this time, so that you can improve your memory!
There are still many people and great strength!All of Cao Chong's performances in the hall today were rehearsed yesterday.

Cao Chong convened a meeting with his friends yesterday. Fazheng, Zhou Buyi, and later Wen Jiao were able to predict almost all of today's situations.

And combined the strength of the crowd to make various countermeasures, Zhou Hui and others did not have any chance to speak and play.

Of course, the system deserved the most credit this time. His newly released mission made Cao Chong know that someone was about to snatch his salt management rights!Then everything is ready.

"Hey, system! Thanks to you this time!"

"System, have I completed the task? What about the reward?"

The system ignored him!

Cao Chong was once again left on the carriage by old Cao Ti, making Cao Pi and Cao Zhi beside him look envious and jealous!
Xun Yu watched Cao Chong and Lao Cao leave, and heaved a long sigh!

God bless me big man!
On Lao Cao's carriage, Lao Cao was looking up and down at Cao Chong.

This time I really showed my face!

If the salt policy is implemented successfully this time, it will be of great benefit to me. I am the prime minister, and the matter will still fall into my own hands in the end!

"The response from the hall is very good! Are you prepared in advance?"

"Father, the benefit of salt and iron is so touching, my child has already been preparing how to prevent the villain from making trouble."

"Since it is your suggestion and you have also recommended candidates, this matter will be handled by the person you recommended!"

After Lao Cao finished speaking, he looked at Cao Chong suspiciously again and said, "Liu Ba, Liu Zichu is a well-known scholar in Jingzhou, but he was unlucky so he didn't get credit for it. I saw that he had a hard time escaping all the way from Jingnan, so I let him go back. Xu Du cultivated himself, why did he go to Luoyang?"

"There is also Fazheng, Fa Xiaozhi is very famous in Yizhou, why didn't he come to you from a thousand miles away?"

"Old Cao, you are too suspicious! Do you even doubt your son?"

"It's very simple. Liu Ba is very interested in banks and the economy. He came to Luoyang to find me when he saw the bank in Xudu. Before that, I didn't know him at all." Cao Chong explained cheerfully.

"As for Fazheng, when Liu Daer was cheated on the border of Yizhou, Zhao Yun and Fazheng were cheated by the way. You know that Liu Zhang is weak and suspicious, and then Fazheng couldn't stay in Yizhou. I knew it was me who cheated. He has no choice but to run to me!"

"Which one of them are you going to let manage the salt administration? All of them?"

"I can only go to one, the baby is too short of people, I haven't decided who it is yet!"

"By the way, father, my son has something important to discuss with you." Cao Chong whispered to Lao Cao.

Seeing that he spoke seriously, Lao Cao took him to his study.

In Lao Cao's study, Cao Chong took out the map, pointed to the junction of Yingchuan County and Runan County, and whispered to Lao Cao about the Great Salt Mine on both sides of the Wushui River.

"Father, the school government has initially discovered that there is a large salt mine here, and the quality is very high. If it can be mined, it will be the center of the central plains' salt supply in the future. My child wants to ask my father to help control this place."

"How about the reserves? Is it difficult to mine?" Lao Cao asked.

Cao Chong bowed and said: "Preliminary estimate is that mining is not difficult. Haier is improving the method of salt production. If it succeeds, the Central Plains will no longer need to rely on sea salt and pool salt. Only this place will have enough supply."

"After a detailed investigation, tell my father to let Xu Chu go!" Lao Cao stroked his beard.

Cao Chong is not strong enough to do this alone, and needs Lao Cao's help!
