Fortunately, Cao Song's eyes widened when he saw the money.
After meeting Cao Cao, he exchanged a few words and then went to the counting house to count the money with Cao Mai.
~~
Cao Cao took the opportunity to sneak back to his bedroom.
He opened the door and came out with some gold bricks and a few boxes of gold.
The money he paid to honor his father Cao Song was sent back from Dunqiu.
Now, the money he wants to reward Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Ding was brought back from Zhang Rang's house.
In this way, Cao Cao took some gold bricks and several boxes of gold to the west wing to visit his second son, and named his second son Cao Shuo. He also rewarded Liu Yan, Cao Ang, and Cao Shuo's mother and son with a gold brick each. , a box of gold each.
Liu Yanle's wife even married dozens of her husband.
Cao Cao's face was covered with saliva.
~~
Liu Yan has long missed her husband.
She had a lot of complaints in her heart.
My husband hasn’t been home for a year!
She was really afraid that her husband would forget her.
Fortunately, her husband has not forgotten her and still cares for her. When they met, there were three gold bricks and three boxes of gold. This shows that her husband has her in his heart and always loves her.
Therefore, all her complaints disappeared.
~~
Mrs. Ding came after hearing the news.
However, Liu Yan has already mastered it.
She had already arranged for her maid to report the news.
She also assigned a maid to keep an eye on Mrs. Ding.
When Liu Yan heard that Mrs. Ding was arriving soon, she quickly hid a few gold bricks and boxes of gold.
~~
However, Cao Cao would not neglect Mrs. Ding.
On the contrary, he sympathized with Mrs. Ding.
Because Mrs. Ding is always unable to conceive a child.
What will she do when she gets old in the future?
She must have a relative to serve her, right?
Mrs. Ding was not very understanding and often beat and scolded the servants and maids.
Before, before Cao Ang was born, Mrs. Ding often beat and scolded Liu Yan.
Just because she was the wife of Cao Cao's matchmaker, everyone let her go.
Cao Song also took into consideration the Cao family's face.
Otherwise, Cao Song would have chased Mrs. Ding away long ago.
~~
At this time, Mrs. Ding arrived.
Cao Cao also rewarded Mrs. Ding with a gold brick and a box of gold.
Mrs. Ding was overjoyed.
She hugged Cao Cao and kissed him dozens of times.
Cao Cao was drooling all over again.
Money makes things easier.
Even for couples, it's the same.
Mrs. Ding immediately teased little Cao Shuo and played with Cao Ang. She was very happy.
The whole family is enjoying themselves.
~~
Then, Mrs. Ding sent Cao Shuo back to Liu Yan's arms, took Cao Cao back to the east wing, personally served Cao Cao to bathe and change clothes, and never allowed Cao Cao to go out again.
As for eating, Mrs. Ding also asked the maid to take it to her small restaurant.
The east and west wing rooms are also relatively independent small worlds.
Cao Cao can only stay in her little world.
Two days later, she let Cao Cao go and gave Cao Cao to Liu Yan.
Liu Yan was like this too. After using Cao Cao for two days, he was allowed to go out.
~~
On the fifth day, Cao Cao had the opportunity to sit down and have a meal with his father.
Cao Song can also understand this kind of thing among young people.
He was young too.
The two father and son were very affectionate this time.
Because Cao Cao knew how to honor his father.
The father and son were eating, drinking, and chatting.
~~
Cao Song introduced some changes in the court to Cao Cao.
Yuan Shao claimed to live in seclusion, but in fact, Yuan Shao secretly made friends with these people and chivalrous people.
Yuan Shao's activities attracted the attention of the eunuch.
Zhao Zhong angrily warned that Yuan Benchu had raised his status, ignored the imperial court's call, and only raised desperadoes. He didn't know what he was doing.
Yuan Wei reprimanded Yuan Shao after hearing the news, but Yuan Shao remained unmoved.
~~
Cao Cao knew in his heart that Yuan Shao was working hard for him to overthrow the Han family.
He really wanted to go and meet Yuan Shao, but the top priority was to find Shen Lianqing's whereabouts.
After lunch, he said goodbye to his family, led Ding Kui and others on the road under the banner of Zhenyuan Escort Bureau, and then entered Bingzhou.
It's freezing cold and snowing heavily.
It was miserable for everyone to walk on the mountain road.
However, under heavy rewards, there must be brave men.
Cao Cao took out the money and rewarded each person with a piece of gold.
In this way, everyone was in high spirits and walked with wind.
~~
No matter how difficult the road is, it cannot defeat Cao Cao's strong will.
In a few days, they came to Longmen Inn again.
In the deserted Longmen Inn, the only guests were Cao Cao.
The shopkeeper Bao Gang led the waiter and greeted Cao Cao warmly.
Cao Cao then asked some things about Shen Lianqing.
Bao Gang also followed Jin Yingyu's example and told the truth.
Anyway, for him, these things do not affect the interests of Longmen Inn and Yihua Palace. If anyone asks him, he will tell the truth.
What kind of master will teach what kind of disciple.
~~
Bao Gang said that Shen Lianqing was heading north. Later, the Demon Sect and the Huns joined forces to exchange information and mobilized Xianbei soldiers, Hu people, and Qiang people to send troops to find out the whereabouts of Miss Shen, with the purpose of capturing Miss Shen for future use. Threaten Magistrate Cao.
But judging from the current situation, Miss Shen must have left in disguise.
It is also possible that Miss Shen had already entered Loulan Kingdom before the heavy snow closed the mountains.
Therefore, for the time being, various people have not captured Miss Shen.
On the contrary, due to heavy snow closing the mountains, people from all walks of life turned back.
Now, it is no longer realistic to find out the whereabouts of Miss Shen.
We have to wait until next spring, when the ice and snow melt, before it is possible to investigate Miss Shen.
~~
Cao Cao was greatly relieved when he received such news.
He quickly took out three pieces of gold, stuffed them into Bao Gang's hand, and whispered: "Thank you, shopkeeper Bao, for keeping in touch. Cao will not treat you badly."
Bao Gang smiled, stood up, thanked him, and turned away.
It was the first time he had received so much money since he became the shopkeeper, and he was in a good mood.
Although this store can make a loss and it will be subsidized by Yihua Palace.
However, there was no business all day, and the shopkeeper and waiter were still in a bad mood.
When doing business, you will feel happy if you can make money, even if you are busy.
~~
At this time, some beggars came to Longmen Inn.
Ding Kui, who came out for inspection, saw that it was Zao Zhi and Man Chong who led some beggars over, pretending to beg for food and money.
Ding Kuo quickly took out some iron money and threw it to them, and then ordered the waiter to bring some vegetables and rice to the beggars.
Bao Gang didn't doubt him for the time being.
The establishment of the Beggar Gang was a major event since the beginning of the world, and it was a secret for the time being. Bao Gang didn't know that these beggars were disciples of the Beggar Gang, nor did he know that there was an organization called the Beggar Gang in the world.
Because the people who follow Cao Cao are very generous, it is normal for Cao Cao's followers to treat beggars to a meal.
Because Cao Cao did the same thing at Dunqiu, and took in all the beggars, and took the beggars to identify the rich men who had taken possession of their fields, and then killed those rich men, and let all the beggars till the fields and cultivate the land. There were also cattle, and the story spread all over the world.
~~
Suddenly so many beggars came, Bao Gang and the waiter had to get busy.
Zao Zhi and Man Chong seized the opportunity and came to Cao Cao's bedroom to report the situation to Cao Cao. The situation they found out was the same as what Bao just provided to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao was relieved, which showed that for the time being, Shen Lianqing did not fall into the hands of the Xiongnu, Xianbei, or Qiang people, nor did he fall into the hands of the Demon Sect.
Therefore, he asked Zao Zhi and Man Chong to gather all the beggars in the northwest as soon as possible, take advantage of the heavy snowfall to find a secret place, conduct intensive secret training, implement military management, and appoint leaders at all levels.
He said that the main task of the Beggar Clan is to gather information, not to fight with others. Therefore, the disciples in the Clan can do it with some basic martial arts skills, and there is no need to train too hard.
Otherwise, people will be scared away.
If these people are smart and work hard, they will not become beggars.
Zao Zhi and Man Chong were convinced by Cao Cao's analysis of the psychology of beggars. They nodded frequently and benefited a lot.
~~
Cao Cao took out two more boxes of gold and two boxes of iron money for Zao Zhi and Man Chong, and took out two gold bricks and stuffed them into Zao Zhi and Man Chong respectively, allowing Zao Zhi and Man Chong to temporarily stay in the northwest with their disciples of the Beggar Clan. , strengthen the beggar gang, collect military information, and find out the whereabouts of Shen Lianqing.
If possible, extend the tentacles of the Beggar Clan to the Central Plains and every corner of the world. There will always be wars in the future, and brothers Zaozhi and Boning will always be generals.
With the team of Beggars, we will be well-informed.
Moreover, if there is a shortage of military strength, the Beggar Clan disciples can also serve as a supplement.
~~
Zao Zhi and Man Chong immediately laughed so hard that they couldn't even see their eyes.
They left happily without eating. It was important to hide the money.
Cao Cao packed up his things and shared a table with the beggars with Ding Kui and others.
Then the beggars dispersed.
Cao Cao also returned home with Ding Kuai, returned to the Central Plains, and returned to Dunqiu.
Brothers Cao Hong and Xiahou also returned with their troops.
Cao Cao kept the five hundred men in blood and asked them to join the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, all under the command of Xiahou Dun.
He loudly told these blood-clothed men that from now on, you will eat royal food and no longer have to lick blood on the tip of a knife to live your life. From now on, your parents, wives and children can rest assured, and you can honor your ancestors.
In this way, these five hundred people in blood-clothed clothes were surprised and excited.
They begin to transition from robots to human beings with a little bit of emotion.
~~
As for the horses, let’s use the original war horses of the Bloody Man.
It was already extremely difficult for Cao Cao to raise six hundred black horses of sweat and blood.
Even if he could buy another five hundred black sweaty horses, Cao Cao might not be able to afford them now.
Because now he has another gang of beggars to support.
At Xianhua Villa, Gao Xiang's money was finally moved by him.
Therefore, he had to make other plans on how to raise some money to support these people.
Although it is said that the county government provides money to support this group of people, in fact, the salary is extremely low and cannot afford to support these martial arts heroes.
Cao Cao had to spend a lot of money every month to subsidize them, so that they could feel at ease.
These people also have to support their families.
~~
When Chen Gong saw this, he was secretly surprised and felt that he was indeed no match for Cao Cao.
He wondered how the blood-clothed man in Xianhua Villa would be recruited by Cao Mengde?
strangeness! How strange!
No wonder, the last conference to defeat Cao became the conference to defeat Zhao.
Oh, no, Xianhua Villa did ambush Cao Mengde.
How was this feud resolved?
Could it be that Xianhua Villa really found out the murder case in which Dian Hong was maimed?
