Chapter 924 The Bad News Comes
"Then it's not too late!"
"Let's split up and act immediately!"
"Send someone to persuade those big families, I hope they can think it through!"
"Let them lean towards us as soon as possible, and don't give Jiang Chen a chance to fight back!"
Sun Quan nodded and urged.
Regarding this matter, he didn't pay much attention to it at first, but he couldn't stand Lu Su and Zhang Zhao, and each of them urged him like a urging.
Even if they were sent to Chaisang, they still urged them letter by letter every day.
Sun Quan was annoyed by them and had to choose to negotiate with Liu Bei.
In fact, his mind is no smaller than Liu Bei's.
This time, they understood that it was a struggle with Jiang Chen, and there was no room for any carelessness, Jiang Chen's tricks emerged endlessly, if they were negligent, Jiang Chen would very likely find a chance to turn things around.
It seems that Sun Quan and Liu Bei are sure to win now, but if they don't seize the opportunity well, with Jiang Chen's personality, they will definitely fight back.
"Okay then, I'll take my leave!"
Liu Bei nodded, stood up and said goodbye to Sun Quan.
"Brother Xuande, go slowly!"
At the same time, Cao Cao's territory
Jia Xu, Xun Yu and others are discussing state affairs in Cao Cao's study
"Wenhe, what is the situation of the merchants who settled in recently?"
"In fact, the growth rate has not achieved the expected effect!"
"What is the cause of this?"
Cao Cao looked at Jia Xu in the audience and asked.
"Back to Prime Minister, the main reason is the foreign trade city plan launched by Sun Quan and Liu Bei!"
"They want to monopolize all the raw materials in the south and not sell them to the outside world. If they want to get these raw materials, they must become their citizens!"
"Otherwise, the cooperation will be cancelled, which is also the main reason why our plan did not achieve the expected results!"
Jia Xu did not dare to neglect, and reported the main reason to Cao Cao.
"In terms of raw materials, the territories of Sun Quan and Liu Bei do have unique advantages!"
"As far as we are in Xuchang, except for iron ore resources, there are not many that can compare with it!"
"Even if it is our cloth and silk, there is no way to compare with it!"
Cao Cao thought for a moment, then nodded.
Looking at Yangzhou, since he was occupied by Sun Quan, he has been very passive.
Cao Cao was wondering if he wanted Sun Quan to give up Yangzhou. In that case, Su embroidery would be his.
"How can the lovers solve it?"
"Sun Quan and Liu Bei cannot be allowed to have too much influence on the truth!"
"Otherwise, the truth will be very passive!"
Cao Cao glanced at the courtiers next to him and asked his own question.
"Back to the prime minister!"
"If you want Liu Bei and Sun Quan to compromise, I think that as long as they don't impose restrictions on our caravan!"
Jia Xu said with a smile.
"Not restricting us?"
"Then Sun Quan and Liu Bei will be so easy to talk to?"
Cheng Yu next to him asked Cao Cao's doubts.
If they were really so obedient, their merchant expansion plan would not be affected so much.
Originally, half of the merchants who were supposed to go to the Northland have now arrived in the territories of Sun Quan and Liu Bei.
Cao Cao didn't hate them very much, but he was helpless. It was impossible to beat them now.
Now is not the time to be impulsive. We must find a way to solve it. Force is not the best method now.
If Liu Bei and Sun Quan were offended and turned to Jiang Chen, then he would be in a cocoon.
"Back to the prime minister!"
"Actually, 01:30 is not difficult!"
"I understand what Master Jia means. As long as we close the commercial road going south, even if Liu Bei and Sun Quan have raw materials, they will have no place to sell them!"
"Jiang Chen's Hanzhong City will definitely not send merchants to Sun Quan and Liu Bei foolishly!"
"Those businessmen want to enter the south, but they have to rely on the prime minister?"
"If Liu Bei and Sun Quan dare not agree, the business will be closed at worst, and their losses will be even greater!"
"I believe they are smart people, and they will definitely choose to cooperate with the prime minister!"
Xun Yu's family has countless properties, and he is no stranger to these things.
After listening to Xun Yu's words, Cao Cao nodded involuntarily.
"That's true, Sun Quan and Liu Bei must know the truth!"
"Leave this matter to Wen Ruo, and you arrange someone to communicate with Sun Quan and Liu Bei's people!"
Cao Cao nodded.
"My lord, actually I have another plan!"
"We can ask Sun Quan and Liu Bei to replace the annual fixed tax with raw materials. In this way, we can continuously get more raw materials!"
"Let our development not be restricted by Sun Quan and Liu Bei!"
"We can also build a border trade city at the border with the grassland to facilitate transactions with those people in the grassland!"
"In this way, most of the business will become the prime minister's pocket!"
Reported by Xun Yuhui.
"Well, this plan is very clever!"
"I'll leave it to you to handle this matter!"
"With Wen Ruo and Wen He here, the truth is very reassuring!"
Cao Cao nodded and looked at the two with a look of relief.
With these few core advisers, Cao Cao will feel handy when doing many things.
"Prime Minister, the old minister thinks, with that Jiang Chen's personality!"
"He must not be the kind of person who sits and waits to die!"
"Nowadays, many big merchants in Hanzhong have not left Hanzhong City!"
"They must be waiting for Jiang Chen to take countermeasures, we have to guard against it!"
"If we can get the news in advance and destroy his plan, this will eliminate the threat in the bud faster!"
Cheng Yu stepped forward and reported to Cao Caohui.
His words also made Cao Cao stunned, and he nodded, almost forgetting the biggest threat.
"Zhongde is right!"
"We can't relax at all about intelligence spying in Hanzhong!"
"As soon as there is news, it must be sent to the truth as soon as possible, do you understand?"
Cao Cao nodded and said to Xu Chu beside him.
Xu Chu was born with supernatural powers. As Cao Cao's first bodyguard, he never charged forward on the battlefield, but no one took him lightly.
Cao Cao trusted him so much that he handed over his secret team to Xu Chu to manage.
Although it is only an aid, it is already a great kindness to Cao Cao.
With Cao Cao's personality, if he didn't have absolute trust, it would be impossible for him to hand over his life to others, and Xu Chu was an exception.
"Understood my lord!"
"During this time, the general has carefully read the daily information!"
"Important things will be presented directly to the prime minister!"
Xu Chu nodded and said without daring to be negligent.
"So good!"
"Then get busy, everyone!"
After Cao Cao finished speaking, he asked several ministers to leave his study.
