Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 2512 Cao Cao makes another move

The paper mill is ten miles away from Chang'an City. Once something happens to the paper mill, the cavalry outside the city can respond immediately. There are many checkpoints around Chang'an. It is not easy to bring out the things Cao Cao needs smoothly.

Zhang Qing believes that with careful planning, this matter will definitely succeed.

Moreover, when Zhang Qing went to Chang'an to carry out this matter, someone was secretly coordinating it. The paper produced in the paper mill would be shipped out every once in a while, but the craftsmen in the paper mill were basically not allowed to come out.

The person Cheng Yu secretly bribed was a craftsman in the paper mill. As long as Zhang Qing could come near the paper mill, this matter would still have a great chance of success.

How to get nearby without being discovered is very difficult.

As the time to contact this craftsman was getting closer and closer, Zhang Qing felt a little anxious. Sneaking into the paper mill was definitely an extremely difficult thing.

However, Zhang Qing did not know how to contact this craftsman, which could ensure the confidentiality of the matter to a greater extent.

In the end, Zhang Qing decided to take a desperate risk, sneaked into the paper mill, arrived at the agreed place, and took away the secrets of the paper mill.

Zhang Qing was extremely skilled, and secretly had an assassin as his backer. He actually entered the paper mill. Looking at the busy scene in the paper mill, Zhang Qing was unmoved. The position he was in at this time was the one he had agreed with the craftsman.

As for the location, Zhang Qing was absolutely sure of escaping from this place.

After successfully meeting the craftsman, Zhang Qing did not refuse the craftsman's request to leave together.

However, on the way back to Xudu, Zhang Qing could clearly feel the strictness of the checkpoints. Fortunately, Zhang Qing was prepared for this and had no problems with his identity, so he was able to leave Chang'an and return to Xudu.

The paper mill is a relatively important existence in Chang'an. There are thousands of soldiers stationed near the paper mill. Ordinary people are not allowed to approach it. There are many soldiers in the paper mill. They are not only to supervise the craftsmen, but also to protect these craftsmen.

In order to ensure the safety of the paper mill, the paper mill has caught many princes' detailed work before, but recently, nothing else happened in the paper mill, which made the guarding soldiers relax. It was under such circumstances that Zhang Qing was able to

Enter the paper mill smoothly and take the craftsman away.

The paper mill lacked a craftsman, which was a serious matter. After the person in charge of the paper mill discovered this situation, he immediately reported it to Chang'an Mansion. Although Chang'an Mansion paid great attention to this matter and responded to it, it was

No trace of this craftsman was found.

After Lu Bu heard the news, his expression was gloomy. He knew that this must be the princes taking action again. The existence of the paper mill has earned Lu Bu a lot of money over the years. If the secret of the paper mill can be kept,

You can definitely get more stuff.

It is very possible for a situation to exist. The surrounding area of ​​Chang'an is extremely safe. Not only the people in Chang'an City think so, but even some officials will definitely have such thoughts.

Lu Bu immediately ordered a thorough investigation into the matter and ordered the paper mill to produce paper as quickly as possible. Otherwise, if the secret of making Jin paper fell into the hands of the princes, it would definitely have a certain impact on the price of Jin paper. He wanted to make it before the princes

When there is no reaction, Jin paper is dumped in the territory controlled by the princes. In this case, even if the princes control the secret of making Jin paper, Chang'an can still make considerable profits from it.

It is impossible to keep anything absolutely confidential. Although Lu Bu tried his best to keep the secrets of Jinzhi, such omissions still appeared.

After finding out where the craftsman last appeared, Lu Bu became more certain of his guess.

After the war between the princes ended, the secret contests became more and more frequent. However, the actions of the princes made Lu Bu a little angry. It seemed that the princes regarded Chang'an as a place to make profits, and something happened to the general in the army.

, the craftsmen in the paper mill left Hangu Pass.

The person most likely to take action is Cao Cao. Chang'an is close to Cao Cao's territory. Cao Cao has enough means to do this. After obtaining Jin paper, he can interrupt Chang'an's monopoly in this area and have a great influence on the development of the princes.

A role that cannot be ignored.

However, after the paper mill produced Jin paper in large quantities and sold it at 60% of the usual price, it aroused the enthusiasm of merchants. The price of Jin paper rarely dropped, and being able to use Jin paper became a status.

As a symbol, they naturally would not miss such an opportunity easily.

For a time, under the rule of Sun Quan and Cao Cao, merchants purchased a large amount of Jin paper. Although the price of Jin paper dropped a lot, it was still purchased in large quantities. When merchants purchased Jin paper, they used money, and this money went into Lu Bu's hands.

After that, you can purchase supplies from the princes.

There were many merchants under Lu Bu's rule, and many of these merchants worked for chambers of commerce in various places. They were able to buy a lot of things from the territories governed by the princes, and the money they used was banknotes made in Chang'an.

When Chang'an's banknotes have an important position under the rule of the princes, you can imagine what will happen once Lu Bu and Cao Cao go to war. Under such circumstances, they can only use Chang'an's banknotes for transactions, and

At the beginning of the battlefield, Chang'an would definitely not be open to merchants. What should they do when merchants have banknotes in their hands but no supplies in the hands of the people?

Although the princes have some control over the materials in the territory, the effect is not very good. Blinded by interests, businessmen and some aristocratic families will not care so much. After returning to the territory, the smart families will

If you change Chang'an's banknotes into money, you can still get a lot of benefits.

The large sales of Jin paper made Cao Cao understand that Lu Bu must have discovered something.

After Zhang Qing brought this craftsman to Xudu, Cao Cao was naturally very happy. If he could make Jin paper, it would definitely have a big impact on his rule. After learning how to make Jin paper, Cao Cao was very interested in Lu Bu.

He has a deeper understanding of his cruelty and evil intentions.

They were obviously using some worthless things, but in Lu Bu's hands, they were so valuable.

Cao Cao ordered people to build a paper mill outside Xudu City according to the standards of a paper mill outside Chang'an City, and the surrounding area was guarded by soldiers from the army.

At this time, there was a large influx of Jin paper, and the price was much lower.

Cao Cao immediately realized that something was wrong. If the craftsmen brought back by Zhang Qing were to follow what he said, the amount of Jin paper that could be produced every day was extremely considerable. The establishment of the paper mill could not be completed in a short time, so Cao Cao ordered the aristocratic family under his rule to

They gathered together and told the news that the paper mill outside the city could make Jin paper.
