Chapter 143 Cao Cao: I just play
Yuan Shao's face turned pale and his lips turned purple when he was angry by Cao Cao.
He held back his anger and raised his sign and whispered:
"I'll pay ninety million!"
Then he turned to Cao Cao and provoked:
"Cao Mengde, 90 million, are you following?"
The position of the Central Military Academy is not worth 90 million at all. Yuan Shao is now purely fighting with Cao Cao.
He made up his mind that as long as Cao Cao spent another penny, he would give the position to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao smiled at Yuan Shao and said:
"Hehe, brother Benchu, why are you doing so seriously?
I'm just making a joke with you, but I don't want to be a military captain at all.
That, congratulations to Brother Benchu for successfully winning the Central Army Captain. It’s so gratifying.”
Yuan Shao was so angry that he almost spit out his old blood when he was angry.
His heart was crazy about it:
Cao Bidder! You traitor! A villain! Rebel!
But after looking at Zhang Rang in the stands, it was not the place where Yuan Benchu could do anything wild, so he could only sit down with anger.
Wei Kai next to him wanted to comfort him, but he looked at Yuan Shao's gloomy face and swallowed the words he said.
There is no need to touch this bad head.
After several more official positions were sold, Zhang Rang said:
"The official position we are going to take on is the "District of Dongjun".
I don’t need to say much of the benefits of the Yicheng Prefect’s real shortcomings, right?
The starting price is 80 million yuan, and now we will start bidding."
If a local official like Yicheng Prefect is in charge of the military and political affairs of Yicheng, Zhang Rang naturally needs no need to say much about the benefits and waters.
As soon as this official position came out, it was enthusiastically sought after by all the top young men present.
After all, Yuan Shu, the "No. 1 prodigal son in Luoyang", is now just the prefect of Nanyang.
As long as they take the position of "Dongjun Prefect", they will be on par with Yuan Shu.
Cao Cao looked at the hot bidding for everyone, and felt a little anxious. He said to Yuan Shu:
"Brother Gaolu, I want to take the position of prefect of Dongjun."
Yuan Shu had long guessed that Cao Cao was interested in this position, so he smiled and comforted Cao Cao:
"Brother Meng De is at ease. As long as you follow my arrangements, this 'Dongjun Prefect' must be your belonging."
It is not only Cao Cao who is eyeing this position, but Wei Kai is also very interested in this position.
Originally, Wei Kai had no intention of becoming an official too early, but he felt that the current situation of the Han Dynasty was very chaotic.
I am honestly a young man from a noble family and recite poems every day. Isn’t it beautiful to have a romantic life?
However, Yuan Shu's rise and Yuan Shu's hostility towards their Wei family made him feel a strong sense of crisis.
He didn't care much at this time and could only go to the office to compete with Yuan Shu earlier.
Fortunately, the Wei family has a strong financial resources, so it is not difficult to take a picture of a real lack of it for him.
After the price of "Dongjun Prefect" was hyped to 150 million yuan, no one bids with Wei Kai.
Just when Zhang Rang was about to announce that Wei Kai won the position, Cao Cao suddenly spoke again:
"One 51 million yuan!"
When Wei Kai heard Cao Cao bid again, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
He bowed to Cao Cao with a somewhat ugly expression:
"What does Brother Meng De mean?"
Cao Cao waved his hand to Wei Kai and said with a rather scoundrel smile:
"Hehe, Brother Wei, don't worry about me.
If you offer your price, I bid with you so much that I am bored and just having fun.”
Not only Wei Kai, but also all the children of the aristocratic families present had a black thread after hearing Cao Cao's words.
Listen, is this still human words?
Just play!
Do you know how much money the people who really want to bid for this game will spend?!
Why didn’t I see it before? Cao Mengde, the upright cavalry captain, turned out to be a rogue!
Looking at Cao Cao's fearless look, Wei Kai felt that he was in a dilemma.
Give up the auction, he still can't bear to be the position of prefect of Dongjun.
As long as this land is taken down, with the strength of the Wei family, he can arrange it calmly and compete with Yuan Shu.
But when we continue to bid, how Cao Cao cheated Yuan Shao just now, Wei Kai is still vivid in our minds.
He really didn't want to follow Yuan Shao's footsteps and be fooled by Cao Mengde like this.
Although the Wei family has a lot of money, they cannot afford to waste such a thing.
Cao Cao provoked Wei Kai without fear:
"Brother Wei, it's 151 million yuan, can you still follow me?"
Looking at Cao Cao's expression, you will know that if you continue to follow him, Cao Cao will definitely fight him to the end.
It is very likely that Cao Mengde will be cheated at a sky-high price.
Wei Kai weighed the pros and cons and finally replied humiliatingly:
"I won't follow you anymore, congratulations to Brother Meng De for winning the position of "Dongjun Prefect"."
Cao Cao was secretly happy, but he didn't expect that the method Yuan Shu taught him was really useful.
But he said with regret:
"Hey, why don't Brother Wei follow me? Actually, I don't want to be the prefect of Dongjun, just play..."
Wei Kai looked at Cao Cao with an expression that I was very upset when I didn't cheat you and was extremely grateful for the correct decision he had made just now.
What kind of official position can I buy? I have to let you Cao Mengde cheat?
I'm not addicted to abuse.
Seeing Cao Cao, Wei Kai and Cao Cao's tit-for-tat look, Yuan Shu couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the world was impermanent.
Wei Kai's article was on the same path as Zhong Yao and the famous officials of Cao Wei who helped Cao Cao to pacify the Central Plains in Wu, and had already embarked on a completely opposite path from his previous life.
For some reason, Wei Kai seemed determined to win the position of prefect. After several rounds of auctions, he successfully won the position of "Hedong Prefect" for a high price of 200 million yuan.
So far, the third round of official positions have also been announced to be sold out.
However, Zhang Rang did not announce the end of the auction. With the help of Xiaohuangmen, he took a few steps forward and said to all the young masters of the aristocratic families present:
"Originally, these official positions were only available at this auction, but now they are sold out.
However, the emperor's grace was so great that he took out an extremely important official position as the finale of this auction.
The last official position to be photographed below is the position of "Governor of Yangzhou".
I won’t explain this position. I think you all know what it means.
The starting price of the position of "Yangzhou Governor" is 200 million yuan.
Let's start shooting directly!”
Governor of Yangzhou?
Yangzhou Governor??!!
The children of the aristocratic families present once thought they had heard it wrong.
This is not as simple as a fat person.
What is sold is not an official, but a prince!
Anyone who can get the position of governor of Yangzhou can completely relocate his family and live the life of a local emperor there.
If you are ambitious, you can even be respectful and watch the world with a smile.
They didn't know if Liu Hong was terrified or what, but he actually took out such an important position for auction.
What is the difference between this and the prodigal son selling his ancestors’ property?
This Liu Hong is really a puppy and doesn't feel sorry for selling his land.
"Three hundred million yuan!" As soon as Zhang Rang finished speaking, a slightly fat family member in the VIP area couldn't wait to raise a sign to bid.
A family wearing a gray brocade robe and sharp-edged monkey cheeks looked at him with contempt and said:
Chapter completed!
