Zhuge Jin really disagreed with Zhuge Liang's words.
At least in name, Sun Quan lent Jiangling to Liu Bei to help the emperor of the Han Dynasty regain the Han Dynasty.
"Brother, now that Wu Marquis does not want Jiangling, it is probably because there is a problem with the food and grass in the rear."
Kong Ming smiled and said: "The Jiangdong nobles will not tolerate Gongjin's war for a year and only get an empty city in Jiangling."
Zhuge Jin smiled bitterly, "Kong Ming, as a brother, I know that I can't hide anything from you!"
"Jiangling is so empty. Marquis Wu asked me to come and lend it to the emperor's uncle. To be honest, it's very embarrassing for my brother!"
Zhuge Liang chuckled and said: "Brother, you don't have to be like this, my lord does not intend to refuse."
"We might as well change the approach. Jiangling is handed over to our army, and Gongjin can continue the Northern Expedition."
"The food, grass and baggage can be paid for by our army!"
After hearing this, Zhuge Jin couldn't help but wonder if he heard it wrong!
Not only was the loan to Jiangling successful, the other party also provided money and food to support Zhou Yu's Northern Expedition, which is simply unheard of!
"Kong Ming...as my brother, I have to remind you!"
Zhuge Jin said seriously: "Don't mix personal affairs with official affairs!"
"If you fail to do this for your brother, the most you can do is to be reprimanded by the Marquis of Wu. You must not abolish public service for personal reasons!"
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly and said with a smile: "Brother, our army is not without conditions."
"Brother, please tell Wu Hou to move at least 30,000 households to Jiangling and resume farming and production here!"
"Since you are lending it to our army, Marquis Wu will not refuse this small condition, right?"
Thirty thousand households can be replaced by Shanyue people!
Attacking Xiangyang is an urgent matter for Zhou Yu!
Zhuge Jin confirmed again and again: "Kong Ming, have you really thought about it?"
Liu Bei just felt that the clouds and mountains were shrouded in mist. At least it sounded like he was being taken advantage of, even more so than Dou E!
"Brother, don't worry, you and I can make a written agreement!"
Zhuge Jin was overjoyed and anxious to go back to find Sun Quan to revive him, so he said goodbye directly.
"Military advisor...why should our army give Zhou Yu food and support in his Northern Expedition?"
Liu Bei felt a little aggrieved, but Xu Shu smiled and said: "My lord, I have talked with you and I understand what Kong Ming did today!"
"A gentleman once said that only when capital is exchanged with labor can it cause the generation of wage labor and increase it!"
"It seems that our army used food, grass and money to support Zhou Yu's Northern Expedition! But invisibly, it allowed Cao Cao and Sun Quan to continue their hostility, and the lord was able to take the opportunity to capture Jiaozhou!"
Although Liu Bei didn't know what capital was, at least he understood one thing. Even though he was burning Red Cliff, he, Zhou Gongjin, was actually working for him, Liu Xuande!
Thinking of this, Liu Bei felt much better.
"Liang, let them move 30,000 households to Jiangling. The food they cultivate will actually be enough to support Zhou Gongjin."
"It's just that Sun Quan felt that he was at a disadvantage, and because the Jiangdong nobles blocked him, he couldn't do it."
When Liu Bei heard this, he was dumbfounded and said: "So...according to what the two military advisors said, it is equivalent to Sun Quan moving 30,000 people to farm to support Zhou Yu's Northern Expedition and buy time for our army."
"In name, Jiangling and the 30,000 people still belong to our army?"
Liu Bei never thought that a few words between Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu would make the name of righteousness stand on his side.
Co-author Zhou Yu worked for him to fight against Cao Cao, and Sun Quan helped him farm the land to restore production. Liu Bei is really a black-hearted capitalist!
“The more productive capital increases, the scope of the division of labor increases, the more intense the competition among workers, and the less they receive remuneration.”
"There are many people in Jiangdong who have tribes. If it is according to the young master's statement, we can use this matter to divide the noble tribes."
"When the time comes, these people will take the initiative to ask for employment for food and wealth!"
Zhuge Liang laughed and said: "The matter of capital is really interesting! The "Das Kapital" mentioned by the young master can indeed control a political power in the palm of your hand!"
"The rats from Jiangdong are shameless, let their capital be used by my lord first!"
Liu Bei looked at Mi Fang on the side and asked, "Brother-in-law, do you understand, are you hungry?"
Mi Fang shook his head. Even if he was a businessman, it would be difficult for him to penetrate the mysteries of Capital.
"Lord, I think that Mr. En is definitely a great talent!"
Snapped!
Liu Bei took the opportunity to give his brother-in-law a slap in the face, "You don't have to say that! Such a great talent is by no means inferior to three military advisors!"
"If we can get help from Mr. En, why worry about the Han Dynasty not being prosperous?"
Zhuge Jin returned to Jianye. When Sun Quan heard this, he thought there was such a good thing?
The Jiangdong nobles also agreed that Zhou Yu is willing to fight and Liu Bei is willing to provide money and food. It is really good for everyone to do well!
With a wave of his hand, Sun Quan moved thirty thousand people across the mountains to Jiangling.
Zhou Yu also couldn't see Zhuge Liang's operation clearly, but he had no time to think about it anymore.
"Xiangyang! I will defeat it!"
…
Jiaozhou.
Liu Mang never expected that he just talked about the theory of employment relationship and surplus labor with Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu.
It was actually used directly on Sun Quan by these two gentlemen!
After receiving the letter, Liu Mang only felt that Jiangdong Sun Quan with blue eyes and purple beard now looked more like a cook with a big face and thick neck!
Just working for Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu for nothing, but in the end I thought I was taking advantage!
"Evil capitalism!"
Liu Mang sighed: "This feeling, don't be too good!"
Gan Ning and Huang Zhong looked at each other. Although they didn't know what "capitalism" meant, they could tell that the young master was in a good mood.
Now that Liu Mang has occupied Cangwu, Shi Yi has fled. This escape prompted Shi Xie to personally lead his troops to fight!
"Son..."
Huang Zhong reminded softly: "Shi Xie leads an army of 30,000 and is about to approach the city. Should our army consider a strategy to retreat from the enemy?"
Gan Ning was unrestrained and said with a smile: "Old general, what other means are needed to deal with Shi Xie? Just rush over and kill him!"
At the critical moment, it was Lu Xun who reminded Gan Ning.
"Xingba, that's 30,000 people! Even if it's 30,000 pigs, it will take a lot of effort for you to kill them!"
Ma Su was about to snicker, but Gan Ning slapped him on the head.
"Bo Yan is right! Shi Xie is indeed difficult to deal with!"
"Sir, what does this mean? A sixty-year-old veteran, please come out to fight!"
When Huang Zhong saw Liu Mang praising the enemy's bravery, he immediately stepped forward to ask for a fight.
"Old General Huang, you may have misunderstood. I think Shixie has been running Jiaozhou for many years, and he can really produce 30,000 pigs!"
Liu Mang sighed: "The great beauty of Jiaozhou is a waste in the hands of Shixie!"
"Let's go, come with me out of the city to meet the enemy, and I'll see what this Jiaozhou local overlord is capable of!"
Huang Zhong, Gan Ning, Lu Xun, Wei Yan, and Ma Di followed closely behind, while Liu Mang personally rode into battle.
"Liu Changqing! As a clan member of the Han Dynasty, you disobeyed the emperor's orders and interfered in my family affairs in Jiaozhou. What crime should you do?"
Shi Xie had gray hair and pointed at Fengyang City angrily, "Bring Cangwu County back quickly, I don't know what you are like!"
