A long-lasting war ended, and ultimately it was the economy and national strength.

After all, Cao Cao's savings at this time were still short and it was difficult to support him in fighting such a war.

There is insufficient food, will I return without success this time?

The opportunity now is really great for Cao Cao.

If this opportunity is missed, it may not be the case again.

Maybe Yuan Shu has no food at this time? Maybe as long as you persist for a few more days, Yuan Shu will be defeated!

Cao Cao was really unwilling to give up this opportunity, but if he didn't give up, food would be another huge problem for him!

Now, Cao Cao is in a dilemma.

At this moment, Cao Cao suddenly received a report saying that a businessman outside asked for a meeting.

Um?

A businessman wants to see him?

What is it for?

Despite some doubts, Cao Cao summoned the merchant.

"Zhaimin Zhen Yi, I have met Mr. Cao!"

Hum? It turned out to be Zhen Yi of Jiangdong?

What did he come to him for?

Cao Cao couldn't help but become more curious.

"Zhen Yi, I wonder what's wrong with you looking for the true nature?"

Zhen Yi smiled and said, "I heard that Cao Gong's army was short of food and grass, so I came here to solve this problem for Cao Gong."

Hearing Zhen Yi's words, Cao Cao's eyes jumped up wildly.

Um?

The talents in Jiangdong are really terrible. Can you guess that you have insufficient food and grass?

Or do they have eyeliners in their army?

No matter which situation is, it shows a terrible problem. Jiangdong's cleverness has reached a very terrible level.

But who is Cao Cao?

This is Cao Cao who has been brutal for thousands of years!

Cao Cao's treacherousness was definitely not bragging. Cao Cao smiled and said, "Zhen Yi, you are afraid you are thinking too much. Our army has enough food and supplies, and there is no shortage of food at all!"

Hearing Cao Cao's words, Zhen Yi bowed to Cao Cao and said, "Since that's the case, it's the grass people who disturbed me, and the grass people will leave!"

After saying that, Zhen Yi turned around and left without any delay.

Huh?

Leave as you say it?

Cao Cao hurriedly shouted: "Captain Zhen, please stay!"

Zhen Yi stopped, turned around and looked at Cao Cao with a smile and asked, "I wonder what Mr. Cao is calling?"

Cao Cao said uncomfortable: "Captain Zhen, I think we should talk about the price of food and grass!"

Zhen Yi looked at Cao Cao with a smile and asked, "Oh, isn't there no shortage of food and grass in Cao Gong's army?"

Cao Cao coughed twice and concealed: "Be prepared for any trouble, be prepared for any trouble! The more food, the better!"

Zhen Yi nodded and said, "Okay, since Mr. Cao has the intention to buy food, let's talk!"

"The price of our food is 800 yuan per leu!"

Depend on!

When Cao Cao almost swears when he heard Zhen Yi's words!

800 yuan per load? Why don’t you grab it?

Cao Cao had a dark face and bargained with Zhen Yi.

However, Zhen Yi gritted his teeth and refused to lower the price.

Forced to the point of helplessness, Cao Cao could only pinch his nose and approve the price proposed by Zhen Yi.

Cao Cao wanted to buy 100,000 dan of grain, and the two parties agreed to trade in three days.

After Zhen Yi left, Cao Cao called out his confidant and gave a secret order.

snort!

This unscrupulous businessman actually got to the point of being so bad that he really didn't know how the word "death" was written!

After Zhen Yi transported the food, he kept him and the food, so that he could know what a miserable ending he would offend himself!

Three days later, Cao Cao sent someone to trade with Zhen Yi on the surface, but secretly he was ambushed and prepared to keep Zhen Yi's food and grass completely.

However, when the people sent by Cao Cao went to trade with Zhen Yi, they found that Zhen Yi had actually changed the transaction location to the riverside.

In this way, Cao Cao's troops were no longer able to use them.

If they robbed them openly, they could just take a boat and leave, and they wouldn't be able to catch up.

In desperation, he could only ask Cao Cao for instructions.

This news made Cao Cao angry again.

In desperation, he had to trade this batch of food and grass with Zhen Yi according to Zhen Yi's method.

Next, Zhen Yi went to Liu Bei for a walk.

...

As a result, after a round of transactions, the inventory of Jiangdong granary will drop a lot.

I believe that if there is another round of transaction, the granary will be able to close the position.

Of course, after two rounds, Lu Bu did not dare to sell food anymore.

After all, if you continue to sell it, Jiangdong's grain reserves may be seriously insufficient.

I have to say that doing business in war is a pleasure!

In just less than a month, Lu Bu's side gathered a lot of wealth.

At the same time, I also obtained a lot of iron ore and some other necessities.

As the butler, Xun Yu was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

I wish the battle between these three families would continue for a long time and never stop.

In this way, they can make a fortune in Jiangdong, and the construction of Jiangdong can be further accelerated!

And the reason why Xun Yu can do all this is that he has to admire his lord's ideas.

All of this is a routine designed by the lord!

Sometimes, even Xun Yu couldn't help but want to see what the lord's brain circuit looked like, how could he think of so many problems that ordinary people could not think of?

...

The next three wars fell into a stalemate.

Faced with this situation, Xun Yu was really sad and happy.

Of course, the happy thing is that as long as these three companies keep fighting, they can always do their business.

The pain is that their food is sold for one round at most, and the stock is already insufficient.

There are huge business opportunities, but now they lack supply. How can Xun Yu not be in a hurry?

Seeing Xun Yu's troubles, Lu Bu thought about it and couldn't help but say, "It's okay, we can organize fishermen to catch fish from now on, and then sell Yu to them!"

"Fish?" Xun Yu said in confusion: "But lord, the fish can't be preserved at all? We can't catch the fish and trade them, right?"

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Of course not, we can make canned fish, so that it will not break even after being stored for a year."

Canned fish? Is this a god-like thing?

In this era, it is far from the time when canned food is released, so Xun Yu naturally would not know what canned food is.

Canning technology seems to be very high-end. It is not like this to suck the inside into a vacuum.

The emergence of modern canned food originated from Napoleon, because at the end of the 18th century, Napoleon led his army to fight all directions.

Because the front line was too long and the food often deteriorated, Napoleon took out huge sums of money to collect ways to preserve food.

Then, modern concept canned food came out like this.

Two key features of canned food are sealing and sterilization, which do not require vacuum or preservatives.

The key to making canned food is to first process the food, then put it into a utensil, and heat it all in a boiling water pot for 30 to 60 minutes.
