Chapter 456 Two Big Money

What will happen to Taiping asks about the impact?

This will never be revealed in one or two years. It will take a long time to verify. Maybe ten or twenty years, or even Dong Qi will never see its fruits in his life. However, this is not important. It is like a seed that is sprinkled in the land and will sooner or later sprout and grow into a towering tree. Ten years of raising trees and a hundred years of raising people, Dong Qi never thought that people would immediately accept his concept.

However, another thing that happened in March really shocked Guanzhong and the whole world!

Next to Chunhua Gate in the northeast of Chang'an, since the second year of Taiping, a large-scale construction has been built to build a workshop covering two yards. The workshop has a strong and majestic high strength, with iron plates on all sides of the walls, and a canal surrounding the workshop was also opened outside the wall.

There are two workshops that lead to Shengyefang.

Going out of Shengyefang and crossing a street is where Chang'an Imperial City is located, facing Chengming Hall in the northeast corner of the imperial city.

From Chengming Palace to Workshop, three thousand soldiers were built one after another, and even the insignificant Chunhua Gate station was stationed in the army.

The purpose of these three thousand soldiers is self-evident, just to protect the workshop.

All those who come in and out are craftsmen. Although some people ask, the craftsmen avoid answering, making the purpose of the workshop even more mysterious.

This workshop is called Xiping.

Just by hearing this name, you will know that it is closely related to Dong Qi.

It was late spring, and the war in Jingxiang was in full swing. With Lu Bu's dispatch of troops to Nanyang, Cao Cao fell into an extremely embarrassing situation.

Everyone in the world knows that Lu Bu is his person!

However, Cao Cao did not know anything about Lu Bu's dispatch of troops to Jingzhou.

Even when the news of Lu Bu's capture of Lu Yang reached Xuchang, he was a little unbelievable. But then, news came from Runan that Lu Bu had turned against Runan. It was not until this time that Cao Cao suddenly realized and couldn't help but pat his legs and curse, but he had no choice.

As early as when Dong Qi invaded Xichuan, Cao Cao thought there was something about it.

But he has not seen what kind of article it is. His counselors have not found the mystery. After all, Xichuan and Cao Cao are far away from each other, and there is a Jingxiang. Cao Cao wishes Liu Biao and Dong Qi will rebel, and he can make profits from it.

Now, he understood...

Dong Qi occupied Jingxiang, which was just the first move.

Regardless of whether Liu Biao wants to do so or not, he has to take action. As long as Liu Biao takes action, the subsequent things will be beyond control.

Lu Bu was Dong Qi's second move.

This move is very clever! As long as Lu Bu takes action, people in the world will think that it was Cao Cao's actions, and even think that Cao Cao and Dong Qi have joined forces. So, should Cao Cao take the move? If he takes action, he needs to face the alliance of the Second Liu; if he doesn't take action, he also has to face the alliance of the Second Liu. This is a dead end. Lu Bu's attack, no matter whether Cao Cao is willing or not, he will face a fierce battle.

"This despicable man... is getting more and more vicious!"

Cao Cao smiled bitterly, looked at the shogunate counselors and showed a helpless expression.

Xun Yu said: "Prime Minister, Lu Bu rebelled, and Runan was empty. Previously, Liu Bei did not dare to invade Runan for half a step because of his fear of the evil tiger. But now Lu Bu is no longer in Runan, I am afraid that Liu Bei will definitely send troops to Runan next... We cannot take it lightly."

Cao Cao said: "I have ordered Cai Yang to rush back to Runan at night to prepare the troops. The question now is, how should we explain it like Liu Biao?"

"I'm afraid the explanation is useless!" Xun Yu smiled bitterly, "The despicable man took this vicious plan to give Liu Bei a chance. Liu Xuande, a traitor in the world. He had not gained a advantage in Jiangdong before, and now he will not give up the great opportunity to occupy Runan. He will definitely try to convince Liu Biao and join forces to become enemies with us. What I am worried about is not Liu Bei, but Yuan Benchu ​​of Jizhou."

Cao Cao's face became even more ugly...

"Zijing, Gongda, why don't you say a word?"

He suddenly asked Lu Su Xun You who had been silent and thoughtful.

After Lu Su and Xun You looked at each other, they seemed to see the answers in each other's hearts from each other's eyes, and they couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Lord, I'm thinking about the various methods that Dong Qi used since he entered Sichuan... First, Liu Zhang died for no reason, and then the two sons of the Liu family fought. Immediately after Pang Tong attacked Jiangyou, Langzhong was lost inexplicably, but Chengdu was over in an instant... Moreover, when the war ended, the dead were all Liu Zhang's confidants. The Sichuan tribes suffered almost no losses."

Cao Cao's heart moved, "Zijing, continue talking!"

"If Liu Zhang's death was an accident, then is Lu Bu's reversal also an accident?"

Xun You interjected: "According to the news from Runan, when Lu Bu turned around, his family disappeared all of a sudden!"

After a moment of silence, Xun You shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Prime Minister, this is definitely not Dong Qi's method!"

Yiji Manchong and others were all thinking.

Lu Su said: "We all know the people under Dong Qi very well. Chen Gong is good at dealing with it, but he is unaware of it. Xu Shu and Pang Tong also have strange strategies, but this kind of interlocking tricks is not their style. Li Ru is good at conspiracy, so he is afraid that he can't think of such a method... All the rest of the way, such as Gu Yong and others, could not have designed such a method... Lord, I am still able to help you!"

"Who is a capable man?"

Cao Cao realized the essence of the problem.

Xun You smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I just don't know who that person is, so none of us know where Dong Qi's next move will go. However, looking at the people around Dong Qi, I'm afraid no one can design such a trick. Lord, we must further find out who there are people around Dong Qi, otherwise we will be very passive and fall into Dong Xiping's calculation step by step."

Yes, I'm going to search...

Cao Cao felt his head hurt, and gently patted his forehead, but Dong Qi's silly smile appeared in his mind.

What do you want to do, you despise man?

*******

"What's the matter?"

Dong Qi smiled so hard that a flower seemed to bloom on his face. He squinted his eyes and held a book of "The Analects of Confucius" that exuded the fragrance of ink in his hand.

In Xipingfang, the master craftsman Ma Jun and others were looking at Dong Qi.

"Not bad, quite good... The handwriting is clear and the paragraphs are clear... Yes, this annotation is also clear, Deheng, you have done a good job. You guys have worked hard for the past year, but you still have to ask you to work hard. In ten days, I need three thousand sets of "Six Classics Annotations" to be completed... Jiang Ye, the Lumen Pavilion Bookstore is not too late, so don't waste time."

Jiang Jie is a geek and a generalist.

He is over 40 years old, but he looks particularly energetic. DeFewo recommends that Jiang Jie is now the director of the Supervisor, responsible for the planning, expansion, road design, and major landmark buildings of Chang'an City. In Dong Qi's words, this work is very rich.

However, Jiang Jie is not a greedy person and has no other hobbies.

He doesn't drink alcohol and is not lustful. He just likes some weird things, and is very home-loving and never fools around outside.

When Dong Qi asked, Jiang Jie intervened and bowed, "Don't worry, you will never delay the book sales ceremony in ten days."

“So very good, so very good!”

Dong Qi nodded with a smile, holding the thread-bound book with the undried ink, and looked at it from time to time, looking satisfied. The words in the book were written in very clear small seal scripts, and basically they could be understood by anyone who knows how to read. Compared with those rubbing books and hand-copied books, the printed books looked comfortable to read. As for those damn bamboo slips, Dong Qi could no longer bear it.

"By the way, Deheng, you presided over Xipingfang, and you need to pay more attention to collecting various books. Since the Shang and Zhou dynasties, even the Qin and Han dynasties, all the works of hundreds of schools can be printed. There are three religions and nine rituals, and there is no need to worry about it... However, after printing, each book must be sent to Chengming Hall for filing. Guangyuan, this book is only the responsibility of you, and you can arrange a dedicated person to manage it, so that these isolated books can be passed on."

Shi Tao also held a book and his hands were trembling with excitement.

The chicken nodded repeatedly like a rice pecking at the rice, "Don't worry, your highness, I will make arrangements."

After thinking for a while, Shi Tao asked again: "Thousands of years want to benefit scholars all over the world, but I don't know... what is the price of this book?"

Dong Qi did not answer, but focused his attention on Ma Jun.

"Your Highness, you don't need to worry about that, that... cost. The more you print the same book, the lower the cost."

Dong Qi closed his eyes and pondered for a moment.

"How about two big money?"

Shi Tao exclaimed: "Lord, this is too cheap..."

"Guangyuan, of course I can also price ten, hundred, or even thousand, or ten thousand. But the question is, those who have a wealth of thousands of yuan can buy it, but what about those poor families? I mean, do you make it affordable for those literate people who can't even eat enough?"

"this……"

"Yueying invented printing technology to facilitate me; his father-in-law agreed with Yueying's invention to benefit the scholars of the world. So why did I sell these books? I don't want to make money, I just want all the people in the world who want to read and read books to read and read quickly... Guangyuan, two big money and one big book may be cheap. But if we use two big money to get the gratitude of scholars all over the world and their hearts, we will not lose!"

This sentence was like Huang Zhong Da Lu, shocking Shi Tao and others.

"Two big money will bring the hearts of scholars all over the world... Hahaha, lord, there is no one in this world who can make such a scheming like you."

Dong Qi smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

Yes, if this is true, then the first business I did in my life will not only make a profit, but also make a lot of money!

After breathing a sigh of relief, Dong Qi asked Ma Jun to wrap the printed schoolboy and hand it over to Li Kui and Ma Liang.

"It's getting late, and I'll go back soon. I'll leave the three thousand sets of "Six Classics Commentary" to Deheng."

As he said that, Dong Qi walked out. After walking two steps, he suddenly asked Jiang Jie beside him, "Jiang Jie, I heard that the previous two days was your son's first year of age, but you were busy with business. After this time, I would like to hold a banquet in person. On the one hand, it is to celebrate your achievements, and on the other hand, it is also to make up for the young master's year of age. Haha, children cannot ignore it, there will be psychological shadows."

Jiang Er didn’t know what psychological shadow was.

However, with Dong Qi's current status and status, he was extremely moved by how he could remember the trivial matters of his subordinates.

Dong Qi walked to the door and asked casually: "By the way, have you named your boy?"

Jiang Jie scratched his head and smiled, "I missed him for a long time, but the lower official gave him a name. The lower official thought that everything needed laws and regulations, so he named him "wei".

"Well, Jiang Wei, it's not bad..."

The moment he said that, Dong Qi's steps suddenly became chaotic and he almost staggered, "Jiang Wei? Are you actually Jiang Wei's I?"
