Three Kingdoms: Economic mastermind, Cao Cao wins!

Listening to Li Mo's words, Chen Qun was a little confused for a moment. It was normal for him to come to visit Li Mo, but Li Mo's strange answer was completely beyond Chen Qun's understanding.

"Long article, Feng Feng does not mean not to contact you, but it is best to contact you in a place like Zuixian Tower, where it will not easily arouse other people’s suspicion."

"Others’ suspicion?"

"Since you know Fengxiao, why are you still here?"

"I'm alone, what's there to be afraid of? Besides, you have food and drink here, why don't I come?"

Listening to the conversation between Li Mo and Guo Jia, Chen Qun was also a smart person and immediately understood Li Mo's words. The implication is that Li Mo's words can be said to be protecting Chen Qun. If Chen Qun is too close to Li Mo, he will inevitably be rejected by some people, especially some aristocratic families.

"Does Mr. Li Mo think that I am such a timid person?"

"It has nothing to do with being timid, it’s just not necessary. There are many friends and many paths. Some friends are for the heart, and some are for the face. What kind of friend does Changwen want to be with me, Li Fengying?"

"Chen Qun has learned a lesson."

Listening to Li Mo's words, Chen Qun's feelings towards Li Mo changed once again. Chen Qun is not a stupid person. From the beginning at Zuixian Tower, to working under Cao Cao, and then When he later joined Cao Cao, he had already figured out Li Mo's various actions. In addition, Li Mo's mission to Tao Qian and his prediction of Yuan Shu's movements made Chen Qun's thoughts about Li Mo already changed. ,

In the past, people from aristocratic families called Li Mo unworthy of the nobles, engaged in the way of merchants, focusing on profits but without morality. Chen Qun now sees that Li Mo Yuanfei is the person said by these aristocratic families,

"Not to mention, a long article is different from a filial piety. Sometimes there are naturally more things to worry about."

"Thank you Mr. Li Mo for your teaching. Chen Qun will come to visit another day."

Listening to Li Mo's words, Chen Qun already understood and did not stay too much. After leaving the gift he brought to visit Li Mo, , and chose to leave. Now only Guo Jia and Li Mo were left in the main hall.

"Okay, Fengxiao, everyone has left. If you have anything to say, just say it. Don’t tell me that you really just came here to eat and drink. You haven’t paid me back the money you owe me. Now you have at least a few hundred. Is it golden?"

"Haha, my little salary is not enough to repay it. Besides, your family is rich and prosperous, and I am still short of it?"

"One code leads to the other, I am a businessman, not a charity person, you really think I am a great philanthropist."

After listening to Li Mo's words, Guo Jia was silent for a moment, and after putting the teacup aside, he also Asked the doubts in my heart,

"Feng Ying, I admire your extraordinary abilities and your vision that is unparalleled by others. But Guo Jia doesn’t understand. Feng Ying, you should be able to help more people. There are many things that can obviously benefit more people. Why do you Didn't take it out?"

After hearing Guo Jia's words, Li Mo immediately understood what Guo Jia meant, but Li Mo was not in a hurry. Instead, he took a sip of tea very calmly.

"Filial piety, in a word, after these things are taken out, do you really think they can benefit all people, or will they eventually become a tool to satisfy the selfish desires of some people?"

Li Mo naturally asked Guo Jia to take over part of the work of the pianong officer. Naturally, he had sufficient trust in Guo Jia and knew that Guo Jia would not talk nonsense.

"But......"

"I know what you are thinking. Since I have helped others, why don’t I think of ways to help more people? Fengxiao, you have confused two concepts. Paid help and free support are two different concepts. Some things are not the same. Change, no amount of help is meaningless. To put it simply, during spring plowing, Fengxiao should know very clearly what the attitudes of the corresponding officials in Taicang, Junshu, Pingzhun, Dunei, and Jitian are."

What Li Mo mentioned was the official position of Sinong's subordinates, and they were also nominally Li Mo's subordinates. However, these subordinates were all members of aristocratic families. They called Li Mo"sir" when they met, but in fact, if Li Mo really wanted to It is very difficult to order these people, and the implementation of government orders is even more compromised. Things that can be completed in three days have to be delayed for half a month, and some even simply do nothing. Guo Jia also knows this very well. ,

"These are all moths, alas."

Listening to Li Mo's words, Guo Jia had to admit that what Li Mo said was true, but changing this situation really cannot be accomplished overnight.

"That abundance, is that what you plan to do?"

"Fengxiao, you are too anxious, as if you said it, it is useless to rely solely on one person's efforts for this matter. Besides, the entire Yanzhou itself is suffering from internal and external troubles, isn't it? Things need to be done bit by bit, don't"Afraid"

Li Mo naturally cannot let it go. Now that the trade route has finally been opened, Yuan Shao agreed and Tao Qian also agreed. Although it is not possible to do the grain and grass business, it does not mean that it cannot be done. Doing the rest of the business is undoubtedly a good thing for Li Mo. When the autumn harvest comes, Li Mo is really ready to start. It's still early now.

"Fengxiao is a little anxious?"

"No rush, you're not in a hurry, why should I be in a hurry, but I'm very curious about what you want to do."

"Let's wait and see."

Facing Guo Jia, Li Mo didn't say much, but continued to do things according to his own ideas. The first thing was to organize the caravan to prepare for business. It was just a matter of exempting business from taxes. One point was enough for Li Mo to make a lot of money.

Outside of Yanzhou, Yuan Shu dispatched an army of 100,000 led by Ji Ling and was stationed less than fifty miles away from Chen Liu, but they still did not attack. The reason is also very simple. The general stationed here at this time is none other than Cao Cao's general Cao Ren. He also leads an army of 100,000 and relies on the city to confront Ji Ling. In this case, the strength of both sides Basically, they are even. No matter how stupid Ji Ling is, he is still a general. He still knows the most basic principles of marching and fighting. Although Ji Ling used provocation as an excuse, if it were someone else, he might not be able to help but start a war with Ji Ling, but Cao Ren has always been steady. It is well known that for half a month, even the city gates could not be opened. Ji Ling did not dare to attack the city without permission. He could only continue to ask Yuan Shu for instructions on whether to attack. After all, a hundred thousand troops defended the city, and a strong attack would inevitably cause losses. Ji Ling still understands the tragic truth.
