Yecheng, in Tongque Terrace, in Lao Cao's study. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

“…… Chong'er, do you really want to go to Lu Ren like this? ”

Facing Lao Cao's inquiry, Cao Chong nodded affirmatively: "Yes, father, now is the right time to pass." ”

Lao Cao pondered for a while, and then asked, "Then Chong'er, tell me your opinion." ”

Cao Chong had been prepared for this, so he responded unhurriedly: "First of all, the mutual market exchanges between my father and Lu Ren must be restored as soon as possible. Since Lu Ren cut off the mutual market, not to mention the urgent shortage of many materials needed in various places, and the goods produced by a large number of workshops could not be sold, so the gentry and mercenaries everywhere were anxious. If we do not respond to this matter as soon as possible, I am afraid that these gentry and the servants will cause some trouble. Therefore, at this time, if the father sends the child to Lu Ren with great fanfare, he can at least give an explanation to these gentry and the helpers first, so that the situation can be stabilized in a short time. ”

Lao Cao nodded: "Not bad!" Go on. ”

Cao Chong continued: "Lu Ren's action this time, although he is under the banner of the 'White Horse Alliance' that cannot be violated, but why he did this, the child is still a little puzzled, or maybe it is just a pure reputation fishing is unknown. However, judging from his actions before and after, he didn't really want to fall out with his father, so after his father showed that he had no intention of being the king, Lu Ren immediately withdrew his army. According to the news that came back some time ago, Lu Ren cut off the mutual market this time, and his Yizhou industry was also greatly affected, which can be described as 'killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred', so Lu Ren's side should also be eager to resume mutual market contacts with his father. ”

Lao Cao interjected: "In that case, wouldn't it be good to wait for him to recover on his own?" ”

Cao Chong hurriedly shook his head: "It's different, it's different!" Lu Ren was obviously prepared for this time, although he suffered a lot of self-damage because of the severance of the mutual market, but Lu Ren's side only couldn't adjust it in a short period of time. You must know that Lu Ren has a lot of business, and what should have been sold to us should have been given some time, and he can sell it elsewhere if he is given some time; And the items that were originally meant to be purchased from us, he could have purchased them from elsewhere. So ......"

Cao Chong didn't say the rest of the words, but Lao Cao rubbed his head with a little headache. As Cao Chong analyzed, since Lu Ren was preparing to use the trick of the trade embargo, why would he not pay attention to the impact on himself?

In fact, Lu Ren's total production capacity in Yizhou still has its upper limit, after all, Lu Ren's fixed household registration is only one million or hundreds of thousands, and the things produced by his production capacity cannot meet the overall needs of Cao Liusun and the three parties, and to put it bluntly, the things produced by Lu Ren's side are in the same short supply for Cao Liusun's three families.

If you use percentages, Lao Cao's side accounts for 45%, Sun Quan's side is 20%, Liu Bei's side is 15%, and the other 20% is the share of other regions. The loss suffered by Lu Ren now is mainly because Lu Ren's trick was used suddenly, so the external share adjustment cannot be adjusted all at once.

And Lu Ren considered that this was only temporary after all, and it was impossible to divide these shares to other places, so he didn't make any formal adjustments, so he suffered a certain loss. But as long as Lu Ren is willing, 45% of Lao Cao's side will be put elsewhere, and people like Sun Quan and Liu Bei will be able to eat it, and they will even hope that Lu Ren can increase his share.

Okay, don't go too far, anyway, it's simple and straightforward, Lu Ren's things don't worry about not being sold, it just takes some time to adjust. And this matter is relatively obvious, of course Lao Cao's meticulous work can be inquired about. But on the other hand, Lao Cao's side has a certain dependence on Lu Ren's things, and if he really cuts off trade with Lu Ren, he can give Lao Cao a headache for three and a half years. What's even worse is that now the scholar class and the mercenary class on Lao Cao's side are making a lot of trouble, and Lao Cao also hopes that Lu Ren can resume trade as soon as possible, but Lao Cao's face is really a little difficult to pull down at this time.

looked at Cao Chong in front of him again, and Lao Cao could only shake his head helplessly. He understands that this is not the time to save face, there are many political struggles within his group, and if he doesn't give an explanation to those hated literati as soon as possible, God knows what will happen next.

One thing to know here is that Lao Cao's territory is not really that stable, but there will always be some small rebellions...... Well, it's probably a bit of an exaggeration to say rebellion, and if you want to put it aside in modern times, it should be "armed conflict", and that's it anyway.

It's just that although the matter is not big, if those wealthy families are unhappy and stand up to take the lead, then this kind of small-scale rebellion will escalate into a large-scale rebellion, and it will be enough to make Lao Cao's head hurt a little more. And now that Cao Chong has stood up like this, Lao Cao also understands that he needs someone to pave a step between himself and Lu Ren. There are some things that he can't pull down his face, and Lu Ren can't pull his face either? And what's worse is that if Lu Ren can't pull down his face, there is another way to go, if Lao Cao doesn't pull his face down here, Lao Cao's trouble will be big.

Thinking of this, Lao Cao nodded to Cao Chong and said, "Chong'er, you are very reasonable. But apart from that, do you have any other deeper perspectives? ”

Cao Chong said: "Of course there is. Lu Ren made this move, and Sun Quan also made a timely move, which seemed to mean that Sun Quan and Lu Ren were close to each other. If the father does not respond, it is easy for others to think that Lu Ren and Sun Quan are completely standing together and opposing their father, so that after a long time, a view of opposition and hostility between the father and Lu Ren may be formed in the hearts of others, which is very unfavorable to the father.

"Father Mingjian, there are some things that children have to say. Now that Lu Renhu is based in Liaodi, his territory has been connected with Hebei, if he can't maintain a good relationship in the eyes of others, then it is easy to be picked up by people with a heart, and then there will be a war between his father and Lu Ren. Not to mention that Lu Ren's strength is not weak, if he really fights with his father, his father will suffer a great loss, just say that if his father fights with Lu Ren, where will Sun Quan in the south and Liu Bei in Shu sit idly by?

"And this time, Lu Ren is just bluffing, the child doesn't believe that Sun Quan and Liu Bei will not be able to see it, but they still have a movement, which is enough to show that once something happens, they will definitely take advantage of the fire to rob, and they can pick up as much cheapness as they can. Father, we can't give Sun Quan and Liu Bei this kind of opportunity. Therefore, the child thinks that through this mission to restore the mutual market with Lu Ren, he should also focus on showing the good relationship between his father and Lu Ren, and in this way, he should avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble. ”

Lao Cao nodded: "Chong'er, you are reasonable, so what do you think?" ”

Cao Chong said: "When I talked to my father in Hanzhong before, I actually mentioned these things, but now if you think about it carefully, it is nothing more than a little bigger. So the child's idea is that the child will go to Yizhou, in addition to showing Lu Ren that he needs to restore the mutual market, the child will stay with Lu Ren for the time being, and at the same time change Lu Ren to let Lu Lan come to us for a tour. Father can think about it, to show Liu Bei, Sun Quan and others the friendship between his father and Lu Ren, what could be more suitable than to invite Lu Lan to his father for a tour? And in this way, we can also win back some face for our literati in Jiangbei by the way, so as not to be ridiculed by those literati in Jiangdong for not having any grand events in Jiangbei. ”

Lao Cao was silent for a while after listening to this, and finally nodded and said: "It seems that my son has already planned, and it is very suitable for the father's wishes. In this way, the father will not hinder you, you can just go. Just rush, be careful! ”

Cao Chong was happy: "Father rest assured, the child is sure that Lu Ren will never embarrass the child." ”

――――――――――――――――――――

However, it was said that after Cao Chong got Lao Cao's approval, he immediately began to make corresponding preparations.

How do I get to Lu Ren? Of course, I have to go to Zhao Yu for this matter. Zhao Yu finished escorting Gongsun Yuan before, and by the way, he brought the letter to Lao Cao, and then Zhao Yu stayed here in Yecheng and waited for Lao Cao's reply. Originally, he was going to Xu Du to help Emperor Liu Xie train the Praetorian Guard football team, but because the impact of this trade embargo incident was indeed a bit big, Emperor Liu Xie did not dare to ignore it, so he let Zhao Yu go to Yecheng, so it was very convenient for Cao Chong to find Zhao Yu.

Then, if Cao Chong wants to go to Lu Ren, of course, he can't go alone, he always has to bring a few people with him. And Cao Chong chose to bring two people with him to help, one of them is still a celebrity, at least Lu Ren was really stunned for a while when he received the telegram from Zhao Yu before coming back to his senses:

"Zhou Budo? This person has no reputation in history, I only know that when Lao Cao Xun Cao Pi said that 'this person is not a person you can control', but I have been mixed up for so many years, and I have never heard of anything too special about him; Could it be because Cao Chong didn't die, Cao Zhi's aura was covered by Cao Chong and couldn't be revealed/anything, so Yang Xiu set his sights on Cao Chong? Or does Cao Chong also value Yang Xiu's talents? But Yang Xiu, this guy is just a little clever, right? ”

Shaking his head, he didn't think about it first, and the telegram was also thrown into the brazier by Lu Ren. Cao Chong's plans were discussed with Lao Cao Mi, and it was impossible to inquire about them, so Lu Ren didn't know what Cao Chong would say when he came here. For Lu Ren, in fact, it is enough to know one thing, that is, Lao Cao sent his precious son Cao Chong over, and he must be in a hurry to resume trade, and this is what Lu Ren needs at present.

Again, if he completely cut off business contacts with Lao Cao, it would be of no benefit to Lu Ren. Even if it is adjusted and will not have a big impact on Lu Ren's economy, the loss to Lu Ren's political level will be great, not to mention that Lu Ren will further use his own means to influence the ideology of the Central Plains.

There is one thing that may only be clear to Lu Ren at this time, and no one else can think of it, that is, in the Central Plains at this time, under Lu Ren's deliberate guidance, there has actually been the germ of capitalism, like those workshops run by wealthy families.

It was too long ago, Lu Ren didn't dare to say it, and whether it would develop again in the future, Lu Ren didn't know the bottom in his heart. Because if you really want to talk about it, China had the germ of capitalism in the Ming Dynasty, or even as early as the Song Dynasty, but it was not able to continue to develop for various reasons. However, for Lu Ren, some things made it appear earlier, and it appeared in the Han Dynasty, an era when people's ideas were still relatively open, and some things might be different.

In short, since some Dongdong has appeared, it must be carefully "cultivated", so as not to be suppressed by those feudal rulers who only want to stabilize their own country. From this point of view, it is also necessary for Lu Ren to resume trade with Lao Cao as soon as possible. Originally, Lu Ren wanted to negotiate with Lao Cao after a little more time, but since Cao Chong was in such a hurry to send the steps, Lu Ren was also happy to arrive.

But right now, Lu Ren's headache is not about this, but ...... There was an awkward quarrel between Lu Xun and Sun Shangxiang. In this regard, Lu Ren could only sigh helplessly, saying Do you two want to do this?

What's awkward? If you want to put it on the body of modern ordinary people, it may not really be called a thing, to put it bluntly, it is nothing more than the woman who caused the temper of her little daughter's family, commonly known as "shy". Lu Ren doesn't understand, aren't you Sun Shangxiang very bold and open-minded? Why is this virtue now?

To be specific, didn't Lu Ren ask Cai Yan to come forward to propose to Sun Quan? Of course, Cai Yan did as he was told, and then he smoothly mentioned Sun Quan. Sun Quan also knew at this time that it was unrealistic to think about marrying Liu Bei again, and from a personal point of view, his sister Sun Shangxiang, who was almost thirty years old, had to get married, otherwise Wu Guomu would be able to annoy Sun Quan to death, and from a political level, it could be regarded as a marriage with Lu Ren, which was beneficial to Sun Quan's political interests, so he readily agreed, and what to do is to let Lu Ren watch it, anyway, everyone is there for you Lu Ren.

And this news naturally quickly reached the ears of Lu Xun and Sun Shangxiang, which really made these two goods a little confused, and then the situation between the two sides was a little wrong. In Lu Ren's words, these two are such big people, how can they still look like sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys and girls? But if you think about it carefully, it seems that these two have really never been in love......

Sixteen or seventeen-year-old boys or girls, if they are a little conservative in their thinking, what kind of situation may arise when they fall in love? Maybe it's like this, that is, they are actually interested in each other, but they are afraid of being told by others. Once they are poked out, then these two goods will have an awkward relationship with each other because of "shyness". Unfortunately, Lu Xun and Sun Shangxiang are in this situation now, so Lu Ren will cry and laugh after hearing the news and say that one of you is thirty-seven, and the other is almost thirty, why is it still this virtue?

You don't care about making trouble, but don't miss what you're doing! On the side of Wajima Yamatai, Lao Tzu only got Himiko some time ago, and he completely controlled that side, and then the silver and sulfur produced on Wajima Island are very important materials for Lao Tzu, if you make a mistake, who will Lao Tzu cry to?

is very helpless, Lu Ren still has to deal with the emotional disputes of his subordinates at this time. Fortunately, these two goods are awkward and awkward, at least they haven't mistaken things for now. But Lu Ren didn't dare to take it lightly, after all, if something went wrong with Sun Shangxiang, Lu Ren would not be very easy to explain to Sun Quan and Jiangdong. So after thinking about it for a while, Lu Ren asked Himiko to take Sun Shangxiang to Liaodong for a trip, and he came forward to talk to Sun Shangxiang well...... Of course, by the way, you have to "feed" Himiko.

But at this time, Sun Shangxiang was pulled by Lu Lingqi to "play". said it was playing, but in fact, Lu Lingqi pulled Sun Shangxiang and went to her husband's side to "play the autumn wind" together. In the blink of an eye, in the blink of an eye, Lu Lingqi carried out frequent plundering attacks on Fuyu in the northeast of Liaodong in accordance with Lu Ren's plan, and the total number of sorties was as high as more than 40 times.

The scale of these more than 40 attacks was not large, after all, Lu Ren only gave Lu Lingqi 5,000 fine horses. And the least of the few times, Lu Lingqi only took six or seven hundred horses and ran out; The biggest time was that Fu Yu was angry after experiencing a certain number of looting, and gathered tens of thousands of men and horses to retaliate, at that time Lu Lingqi did not have many men and horses, so he had to ask Lu Ren for help, and Lu Ren immediately mobilized tens of thousands of main infantry here in Liaodong, led by Deng Ai to support Lu Lingqi. And in that battle, more than 4,000 of the remaining tens of thousands of horses were killed, more than 2,000 were captured, and the rest fled, and Lu Ren didn't bother to chase them.

It was after that battle that the remaining tribes in the northeast of Liaodong began to move northward in an all-round way, and they no longer dared to wander around in the vicinity of Liaodong. Of course, there are still some people who are not afraid of death, but these husbands and tribes who are not afraid of death, what awaits them will only be the cleaning of Lu Lingqi's elite cavalry...... To put it mildly, these husbands and wives are scattered, Lu Lingqi's elite cavalry can storm them a few streets just in terms of weapons and equipment, and their swords, bows and arrows can't break through Lu Lingqi's cavalry's defenses, not to mention that if they really provoke Lu Lingqi, they will immediately apply to Lu Ren to call musket infantry to solve them.

Suddenly, Lu Ren's prestige in Liaodong was greatly enhanced, and with Lu Lingqi's frequent attacks, he either rescued the people who were captured by the husband, or simply captured the entire husband's tribe back as slaves, and added tens of thousands of laborers to Liaodong in half a year. Even with it, the people of Liaodong also have more and more respect for Lu Ren. Therefore, it can be said that the situation in Liaodong is now very good.

And Sun Shangxiang came over this time, just when Lu Lingqi was about to attack again. Sun Shangxiang himself was making a fuss in his heart, and he was even a little unhappy with Lu Ren, who let Lu Ren have nothing to do with Sun Quan when he was full? In the above words, Lu Ren is the culprit who poked out the little thing between the little boy and the little girl, and Sun Shangxiang will of course not have a good face for Lu Ren. With such a state, Lu Ren is not good to talk to Sun Shangxiang immediately, and it just so happens that Sun Shangxiang also likes to fight, so he asked Sun Shangxiang to follow Lu Lingqi to fight. After Sun Shangxiang moved and vented, the rest of the words were easy to say......
