Civil servants Chen Gong and Cheng Shu were thoughtful, feeling that what Xu Ding told Cao Cao yesterday was not the same thing.
Liu Ye and Chen Deng looked at each other from below, and they both saw the fear and vigilance in each other's eyes.
Maybe this guy will definitely not be so good, there is something tricky about it.
"Haha...haha...Bokang probably drank too much yesterday, so we don't remember many things. With our current strength, it may be extremely difficult to defeat Dong Zhuo. It's better to save some strength and talk about it." Cao Cao perfunctory laughed.
Xu Ding said with a serious face: "Meng De's words are wrong. What a man said is nails in his mouth. Even if there is a cliff in front of him, he has to jump, even if there is a sea of fire, he has to go. Besides, my army by water has come to Yanzhou. You If you let me go back like this, wouldn’t the princes of the world laugh at me, wouldn’t Dong Zhuo scold me that there is no one in the Guandong, and they are all rats, wouldn’t it tarnish your reputation!”
"Bokang, Bokang, I really can't say no to you, okay, you have the final say, if you say to attack Dong Zhuo, we will attack Dong Zhuo, but right now I have no food, no cavalry, and an expedition to Guanzhong, some... oh ..." Cao Cao didn't believe that Xu Dingzhen was going to attack Dong Zhuo, so while agreeing, he touched his wine glass and began to raise conditions all over the sky.
I have no money, no food, and no horses, so you can support me.
"It's easy to say! It's easy to say, what is Meng De lacking, go to Qingzhou and Pingzhou to get it." Xu Ding agreed with his own words, but his face was also slightly gloomy:
"But the landlord's house doesn't have any surplus food. There are too many refugees in my place, and all the food is eaten up. For the sake of reading for the people of the world, I posted a book and sold some books." Xu Ding touched it for a while and thought:
"Meng De, otherwise, I think it's better to teach people to fish than to give them fish. How about I help you open up business routes, develop Yanzhou, and make yourself stronger?"
"Oh! Come quickly, Bokang, how can we expand our Yanzhou trade routes? How can we make my Yanzhou stronger?" Cao Cao suddenly became interested in revitalizing business and developing the economy. Xu Ding is undoubtedly the most successful.
Compared with fighting for territory, he is now more concerned about how to increase financial revenue.
So not only him, but the civil and military people below also stretched their necks, waiting for Xu Ding to teach them how to do a good job in Yanzhou's economy.
Xu Ding smiled and said, "Meng De has never heard a saying that if you want to get rich, build roads first, build bridges and then plant trees, have more children and raise more pigs!"
"Uh... isn't that your old slogan in Donglai?" Cao Cao didn't know anything, and he was always trying to learn from Xu Ding, so he paid special attention to the affairs of Qingzhou Donglai.
Naturally, this development program and slogans are often heard.
Especially the two points of building roads and having more children, he deeply agrees.
So I asked: "Bokang, I have been instructing my subordinates to organize people to cultivate and encourage more children. Can you explain in more detail?"
Xu Dingdao: "Mengde's matter is very simple. Do you know that under my rule, a special bridge and pavement engineering team has been established. Of course, this team is not for fighting or serving the army, but for the people and for the local government. For those who serve, they only do two things, building roads and laying bridges.
Now I found a kind of ore there, which is in the form of powder, and when it is mixed with water and sand, it will become hard as a rock after being solidified. I call it cement.
My Pingzhou and Qingzhou are using it to pave roads and build bridges on a large scale. The roads built here are wide and strong, clean for people to walk on, and convenient for horses to run on. Pass above without being affected. "
Cao Cao and a group of civil and military officials were envious when they heard that.
There are such strange things in the world, which can become as hard as a rock after being solidified with water and sand.
Laying on the ground is not like paving a flat stone road.
In this case, it is indeed possible to pass in rainy days without fear of being delayed, so it is a good item.
"So Mengde, with this thing to pave the road, the road surface is good, those business travelers are easy to pass, and naturally they will continue to come to trade under my rule. If there is a road, there will be business. Only when there is business can we prosper. You said that if I also Order the engineering team to connect the cement road from Qingzhou to Juancheng, isn't your place another Donglai." Xu Ding said with a smile.
Cao Cao slapped his thigh and said, "Okay! Bokang is really happy, thank you so much."
After finishing talking, Cao Cao toasted and drank it, and Xu Ding helped him connect the concrete road for free, which would be great.
"By the way, Mengde, I have another thing to cooperate with you. My subordinates discovered the magical effect of carbon, and this object can..." Soon Xu Ding told Cao Cao about the magical effect of coal, and continued to promote the advantages of coal stoves , Looking for business opportunities for coal use in the next autumn and winter.
Cao Cao's eyes lit up again, because Xu Ding told him how to use coal to absorb money from the pockets of aristocratic families.
They chatted very happily, the two didn't drink too much today, Xu Ding left soon, Cao Cao ordered people to withdraw to eat wine and meat, leaving behind a few confidants.
"You have also heard Bokang's words, tell me now, what do you think?"
Chen Gongdao: "Master, the Marquis of Weihai is an act of benevolence and righteousness, I think it is feasible."
"My lord, the kingdom of Weihai promised to build roads for us in Yanzhou. I'm afraid it has bad intentions. If the roads are good and the roads are open, business will naturally become prosperous. This is true.
It's just that the road is straight and wide, which is also conducive to the passage of food, grass, soldiers and horses. In case of a war between us and the Marquis of Weihai one day, wouldn't his cavalry be able to quickly advance to Juancheng through the concrete road. "Chen Deng stood up and reminded.
Liu Ye also said: "My lord, Yuan Long's words are right. Since the Marquis of Weihai is so generous, why don't you ask him to deliver the cement directly so that we can use it to repair the city."
Cement is such a good thing, paving the road is really a waste, it is a sharp tool for repairing the city wall.
It has to be said that Liu Ye's vision was extremely slow and accurate.
Chapter 455 Scared Dong Zhuo
what!
What Liu Ye said was pretty good.
Building a city, this is a good thing.
But at this time Cheng Shu stood up and said: "My lord, no, the reason why the Marquis of Weihai is willing to offer cement is to help my lord open up trade routes and strengthen the connection between Yanzhou and Qingzhou.
If we use it to build the city, I can guarantee that the Marquis of Weihai will not give us a star. By then, the cement will not be available, and the trade routes will also be gone. "
Chen Gong also said: "My lord, since ancient times, those who have won the hearts of the people have won the world. The governance of a place depends on virtue and benevolence, and the implementation of appropriate laws and regulations.
The city is well built, but if the people don't approve of it, if it can't bring benefits to the people, then what's the use.
The roads are built to facilitate business travel, and the rule is prosperous. The people are naturally grateful, and they will take the initiative to help if there are enemies.
I heard that the Marquis of Weihai ruled Qingzhou, and he never used cement to build any city. I think he understands the magic of cement better, but he didn't do it. There must be a reason. "
The road is convenient for the people, so I am naturally grateful for it. This is a good way to gain popularity. Cao Cao suddenly realized it after Chen Gong reminded him.
Of course, what Liu Ye and Chen Deng said made sense.
But there are pros and cons to this thing.
The straight road is wide and easy to walk, which is beneficial for others to attack him, and also use him to attack others, can quickly reinforce the front money, and can also improve logistics transportation capabilities.
The road itself is not good or bad, it only depends on the method of looking at the problem and the method of using it.
"Okay! There's no need to discuss this matter. Just follow Bokang's words and let him build the road. I want to see how he will take me to attack Dong Zhuo.
………………
Guanzhong Chang'an City!
Dong Zhuo Mansion!
Dong Zhuo cursed and said: "Damn Ma Teng, I recruited him to Beijing and pushed him back and forth. I promised him well before, but now I can't find any reason. I really want to chop off his head immediately!"
Li Rudao: "Prime Minister guesses that Ma Teng has noticed something. It seems that we have to use Han Sui and let Han Sui beat Ma Teng first."
Dong Zhuo snorted coldly: "Han Sui is the most cunning, Jiuqu Huanghe, he didn't do anything after instigate him several times, this old bastard has too much appetite, he wants Liangzhou shepherd, and he wants to be the king of Liangzhou, how can he just give it to him like this?" he."
