Three Kingdoms: My wife invited me out of the mountain to ascend the throne while living in seclusio

"If I'm not mistaken, after the Yuan family lost power, your property in Jizhou is not as good as before, right?"

Liu Chuan said indifferently.

This is an inevitable result. If Boss Cao is more careful, it would not be surprising if the Zhen family doesn't surrender quickly.

"Yes! As you said, the Zhen family is not as good as it used to be in Jizhou."

Zhen Mi nodded.

Ever since the Yuan family lost power, their property in Jizhou has been hit hard. It has lost its former glory, and what is left is just lingering.

"That's it! Is there anything else you can't bear to throw away?"

Liu Chuan spread his hands and said.

To be honest, in Liu Chuan's eyes, the property of the Zhen family is no different from that of Xiao Maoyu. If he wants to, he can create a business empire that is a hundred times stronger than the Zhen family at any time.

So he felt that it was easy to throw it away, but it was different for the Zhen family.

That was the result of the hard work of many generations of the Zhen family, and how much affection did they place on it?

For the Zhen family, it is no less than the achievements of the survivors of Fen VI of the Qin Shi Royal Family!

How could it be as easy as Liu Chuan?

"Exit Jizhou, and I will let your Zhen family rise rapidly, even a hundred times stronger than before!"

Liu Chuan said with great confidence.

He has already thought about the steps on how to proceed, as long as the Zhen family follows his thinking, it will be fine.

"A hundred times stronger?"

Zhen Mi was extremely shocked, but also quite excited.

She knew that Liu Chuan had too many novelties that could be used in business, but Liu Chuan would not give those things to the Zhen family casually, after all, Lu Qi'er was doing business outside.

She was very curious and wondered what Liu Chuan could do.

"If you really have a way to make the Zhen family rise quickly, I will go back and be a lobbyist, and I believe the family will agree."

"Not only the Zhen family will agree, but even the two of us..."

When it came to the second half of the sentence, Zhen Mi's voice became very quiet, and she didn't have the nerve to finish.

If Liu Chuan can make the Zhen family a hundred times stronger...

Is it not just as simple as agreeing?

It is possible to tie her directly to Liu Chuan's bed.

"Liu Chuan, do you have any good ideas?"

Zhen Mi tilted her head and asked curiously.

If Liu Chuan can change the fate of the Zhen family, then she may be with Liu Chuan again. She is very excited and concerned.

"Storage food!"

Liu Chuan simply spit out two words.

"Storing food?"

Zhen Mi was extremely surprised, she didn't understand.

"That's right, the first step is to store grain! You throw away all the industries in Jizhou, and then quietly sell the industries outside Jizhou, and use them all to store grain."

Liu Chuan nodded.

This matter is most likely just Cao Pi's personal behavior and has nothing to do with Boss Cao.

The best solution, of course, is to obtain the conditions for a dialogue with Boss Cao.

but!

He stays here, there is no possibility of dialogue with Cao Cao.

The only connection with Boss Cao was that Xun Yu had been to Xiaozhaizi and gave him a bag of sweet potatoes and potatoes.

But sweet potatoes and potatoes don't know what happened yet.

Such an intersection has not yet qualified for a dialogue with Cao Cao.

So, after comprehensive consideration, Liu Chuan came up with a compromise...

Let the Zhen family leave Jizhou to develop, and throw away Jizhou's industry directly.

Retreat to advance... Store food!

Let the Zhen family rise rapidly again, no longer limited to the development of Jizhou.

His first step is to stockpile grain, and there are still many ways to develop in the future.

"What's the use of storing grain? Where is it?"

Zhen Mi didn't understand.

"The way to rise rapidly at the moment is no faster than stockpiling grain."

Liu Chuan smiled and said, "When the war broke out, what is the most missing thing?"

food!

During a war, money may not be worth much at all, and only food is the treasure.

Zhen Mi nodded her head in agreement, she was born in a troubled world, and she understood all of this.

"Currently, the north is completely under the control of Cao Cao. If my prediction is correct, Cao Cao is already rectifying the army at this time, and he will send his troops south in a few days."

"At this time in the south, take Jingzhou as an example. The price of grain is relatively stable, but when Cao Cao goes south, there will be chaos, and the price of grain will inevitably skyrocket. Therefore, it is an excellent opportunity to store grain at this time."

Liu Chuan said.

"However, there is no way of knowing when Cao Cao will go south."

"Besides, now that Cao Cao has cleared the obstacles in the north, they have to rest for at least a few years, right?"

Zhen Mi was slightly puzzled.

"Smart, as expected of a talented woman!"

Liu Chuan gave Zhen Mi a thumbs up, Zhen Mi is quite smart, this question is extremely critical.

Think about it... If Cao Cao rested for several years and never went south, then the price of grain would inevitably remain stable in a short period of time, so hoarding grain would be tantamount to seeking a dead end.

"Don't worry, Cao Cao won't be resting for long, and he will send his troops south immediately."

Liu Chuan said with great certainty.

Because Cao Cao is not young at this time, he has the ambition to unify the world, he can't wait!

According to the original schedule, after Cao Cao flattened the north, he would immediately go south to capture Jiangling, and fight with the Sun and Liu coalition forces in Chibi, only to be defeated.

In fact, Guo Jia prevented Cao Cao from going south eagerly.

Guo Jia analyzed to Cao Cao that the hidden danger of Ma Chao in Xiliang has not been eliminated. If the soldiers are exhausted and the navy has no combat effectiveness, they will rush south to Jingzhou. They want to eliminate Liu Bei and Sun Quan in one fell swoop, control Jiangdong and Jingzhou, and complete Unification is very dangerous.

only!

When Cao Cao went south, Guo Jia had already passed away, so there was no one to stop him.

Therefore, Cao Cao eagerly went south and suffered a direct defeat in Chibi, and even he almost died here.

but......

Although Cao Cao defeated Chibi, he didn't gain nothing, at least he prevented Sun Quan and Liu Bei from dominating one of them. If he didn't rush to the south, the situation in the south might be completely different.

Of course, this is off-topic, so I won't say much here.

This is why Liu Chuan was sure that Cao Cao would go south immediately.

"Liu Chuan, how do you convince Mother to kiss them?"

Zhen Mi asked.

There must be a reason to convince the Zhen family to believe Liu Chuan's words, otherwise the Zhen family would not be willing to follow.

"After I edit a book and let Mrs. Zhen read it, she will understand that she will be willing to give up Jizhou's property at that time."

Liu Chuan thought about it.

He had thought about it a long time ago, and he had reasons and ways to persuade the Zhen family to give up the Jizhou industry.

"Ah, repair a book?"

Zhen Mi was surprised.

"That's right, you don't need to go back, I can't let you take risks. Let Zhen Yao and Zhen Jiang go back and bring your mother and others to Jingzhou."

Liu Chuan arranged extremely domineeringly.

If Zhen Mi returns to Jizhou without someone reliable to accompany him, he won't be at ease. If there is an accident and she cannot come back, wouldn't she regret it for the rest of her life?

"Then...then what am I doing?"

Zhen Mi asked, she thought she should find something to do.

"You? Of course we stay here and we have a round-up."

Liu Chuan suddenly smirked.

Chapter 105 Ah Zhen, You Are Serious

"You stay to prepare for the matter of storing grain, as much as you have."

"If you don't have enough money, you can borrow it from Lu Qier, and it's considered a loan."

"Just when the time is right, I'm going to ask Madam to open a bank."

Liu Chuan said.

"Loan...bank? What's that?"

Zhen Mi was stunned.

Liu Chuan had so many new words that sometimes she couldn't understand them.

"Do you know Qianzhuang? Banks are similar to this."

Liu Chuan explained.

To put it bluntly, the banks of the later generations evolved from the banks, but the number of banks in troubled times was small, and their functions were too single, and their functions were far from being reflected.

Few people even know about it, let alone contact and use it.

"Okay, thank you, Liu Chuan."

Zhen Mi expressed her sincere gratitude.

It's fine for Liu Chuan to give her advice to the Zhen family to get out of the predicament, and he is going to lend her money. She understands that Liu Chuan is only looking at her face, so she is really grateful and moved.

"You don't need to thank you. If you really appreciate it, you can come to something practical."

Liu Chuan raised his eyebrows and teased.

Zhen Mi: ? . ?

"If...if you think about it now, I..."

After a pause, Zhen Mi lowered her head slightly.

Liu Chuan was stunned by her shy expression.

This girl, with an expression of letting you pick and choose, is really the kind who is so addictive that people don't pay for their lives.

Liu Chuan stared at Zhen Mi, and the atmosphere gradually became strange and inexplicable.

"Trojan Horse~"

Liu Chuan directly pecked Zhen Mi.

We are not a gentleman like Liu Xiahui, so it is okay to take advantage of the opportunity.

but!
