Three Kingdoms: Economic mastermind, Cao Cao wins!

"Is that so? I have a way. You can use your house or property in exchange. I personally don’t mind."

"this......"

"Mr. Li, we are here to serve the lord, just some drinks, Yuan Rang, don’t let the Xiahou family lose face."

At this moment, Cao Ren suddenly stood up and spoke, and his words seemed to express Li Mo’s exorbitant price. Li Mo was very dissatisfied with his behavior, and Li Mo also glanced at Cao Ren. Among Cao Cao's early warriors, they were all related to Cao Cao. Among Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong, the two Xiahou brothers They are all known for their bravery, but Cao Hong is more of a follower of orders, and his strength and strategy are at the level of passing standards.

Only Cao Ren can still be regarded as a famous general even among the many generals under Cao Cao's command. He obeyed the law and obeyed orders, and had deep trust in Cao Cao both in the early and late stages. Although he was not a good general, his achievements were definitely second to none under Cao Cao. Especially at this time, there was a vague number one under Cao Cao. general trend,

"General Cao Ren, it seems that he is a little dissatisfied with me, Li Mo?"

"As a minister, you should do your best. Behavior like you, who cares about everything and always thinks about your own interests, should be despised by others." As soon as he heard Cao Ren's words, Li Mo probably understood in his heart, who must this Cao Ren be? I heard some things about myself from my mouth, and even knew some things that Cao Cao promised me, so I deliberately said this. This is deliberately embarrassing myself. This is something I can't help. Who makes the way of merchants despise? At the bottom of the chain, some farmers actually look down on merchants. This is what merchants have to deal with in this era.

"General Cao Ren, did you capture Yanzhou?"

"Nonsense, Yanzhou naturally belongs to the lord, but it is inseparable from our bravery to kill the enemy. However, Lord Li Mo took the opportunity to ask for a lot of benefits, which is a good calculation."

"In this case, why didn't General Cao Ren mention these words in front of the Lord? Instead, he mentioned them in front of me. It seems that General Cao Ren is deceiving me? Or when the generals come, I should hand over my personal things with both hands. Is this considered as my loyalty to the lord?"

"you......Huh, eloquent."

After listening to Li Mo's words, Cao Ren couldn't refute for a while and directly used his eloquent words to offend Li Mo. Li Mo didn't care at all when he heard the words. He had long expected to encounter this kind of situation. But it was just a matter of time.

At this time, the maid from Li Mo's house had come to Li Mo carrying several exquisite boxes. Li Mo didn't say anything when he saw this, and handed over the things in his hands. To the other three generals except Cao Ren,

"I'm sorry, generals. I saw that some generals like to eat this snack before, so I just asked them to pretend a little. You can go home and taste it slowly. As for General Cao Ren, I won't show my shame. The general is very benevolent and righteous. , naturally we can’t talk to people like me. As for this Zuixian Brewing, Li Mo does not own it alone, I also cooperate with others. Each of these food boxes has a small jar of Zuixian Brewing, which is considered a bonus.

"As for the price, you all think it's expensive. If you want to buy it in the future, please invite some of you to drink at the newly opened Zuixian Tower in the city. I won't say more, Dian Wei, see you off."

As Li Mo finished his words At the same time, Dian Wei's figure also walked out from the side, and Li Mo had returned to the backyard.

"Generals, please."

Facing Dian Wei's momentum, Cao Ren's face was also particularly ugly at this time. Cao Ren's face was also particularly ugly at this time. He couldn't understand why Li Mo was clearly not giving himself face. Especially this behavior of preparing four food boxes but not giving them to himself made Cao Ren feel even more humiliated.

"Huh."

In the end, Cao Ren just snorted coldly and chose to leave, while the other people left with somewhat embarrassed expressions. After all, everyone had understood the matter, and Li Mo had already prepared gifts in advance. He had even prepared four gifts for several people, and would give them to several people even if he didn't buy them. However, Cao Ren's behavior was somewhat bullying, even though they were from the same clan and had a close relationship. Not bad, but I still feel a little embarrassed at this time.

"Lord, have we offended General Cao Ren this time?"

After the generals left, Dian Wei immediately came to Li Mo who was drinking tea in the backyard. He was somewhat worried in his words.

"What, are you scared?"

"Lord, how is this possible? Anyone who wants to harm the Lord must step on my body."

"Okay, Dian Wei, depending on where you are, you will face this situation sooner or later. Even if you stay in Pingqiu County, you will still not have peace, otherwise you will end up with the consequences of being a slave and a fish."

Looking at Dian Wei's loyalty , Li Mo was quite satisfied. When he poached Dian Wei from Zhang Miao, Dian Wei's position was not high at all, and he was disliked by many fellow soldiers because he ate too much. When Li Mo arrived, After getting here, Li Mo not only let Dian Wei eat and drink as he pleased, but also spent a lot of money to let Dian Wei bring all the women and children in the family to Pingqiu County and live a good life, eating and drinking. It's something that most people wouldn't even dare to think about. This is also the reason why he won Dian Wei's loyalty.

"My lord, Dian Wei doesn't understand. Since my lord has money and food, why doesn't he just raise his own army?"

"Dian Wei, you have been following me for a long time. How long have I been running Pingqiu County? And if you want to raise an army, you don’t just need money and food. The thing is, there are princes with names in the world now. They are all from famous families, or they have great opportunities. It is not easy to make something out of nothing."

"As for what happened today, don’t worry, it won’t be long before it reaches Cao Cao’s ears."

"Does the lord mean that Cao Cao will vent his anger on the lord?"

"No, but it is enough to make Cao Cao feel more at ease with me."

"ah?"

Dian Wei was even more puzzled after hearing this, but Li Mo smiled slightly and stood up directly.

"Dian Wei, there is no love without reason, and there is no hatred without reason. I have been in a high position since I came here, so naturally it is inevitable to make people jealous, especially since my status is sensitive. Cao Cao seems to trust me, but in fact, how can he not beat me? I"
