Three Kingdoms: Economic mastermind, Cao Cao wins!

In the post house, Li Mo was sipping hot tea in the room, although it was far less comfortable than at home, but Li Mo was not in a hurry

"Lord, I have already inquired, today Mi Zhu, Cao Bao, and Chen Deng visited the state pastor together."

"I expected it, it was impossible not to be discovered, so prepare for the time when we have to go back."

Listening to Zhang Kun's report, Li Mo had already guessed the outcome of this matter, otherwise why would he come to run this trip in person

"Oh, my lord, are we going to go from the country of Pei?"

"No, let's go Runan".

"Whoa".

Hearing Li Mo's words, Zhang Kun immediately went down to prepare, and Dian Wei, who was on the side at this time, was a little unable to stand

"Lord, why do we want to go to Runan, isn't this equivalent to going around in a big circle?"

"Alas, you all think that the road here is dangerous, in fact, the way back is the most dangerous, since I have let the news spread, what will Yuan Shu do when he receives the news?"

"What does the lord mean that Yuan Shu will attack on the way?"

"Well, as long as I die, whether it is Tao Qian or not, this pot Tao Qian will be determined, and then Yuan Shu will be able to watch the lord and Tao Qian start a war on the wall, so that the lord will fall into a state of two-sided attack again, and Yuan Shu can also greatly preserve his own strength to deal with Yuan Shao by the way, killing two birds with one stone, why not Yuan Shu".

"But this Runan is basically in the hands of Yuan Shu now, wouldn't it be easier for the lord to fall into danger if he does this."

"It's just the psychology of darkness under the light, if you are Yuan Shu now and want to intercept me, where will you choose?"

"Forehead ......".

"Forget it, when I didn't ask, I did feel a little embarrassed for you."

Seeing that Dian Wei really made a look of hard thought, Li Mo decisively gave up the meaning of mentioning Dian Wei, a good warrior, now he is starting to use his brain, this is not necessarily a good thing

"Report, lord, Cao Bao is visiting".

"Cao Bao? Well, please come in, Dian Wei go down."

"Whoa".

Hearing Li Mo's orders, Dian Wei also immediately retreated, although he had the intention to continue to protect Li Mo, but Li Mo's orders still had to be listened to, and after a while, Cao Bao had already changed into a disguise and entered the main hall, and Li Mo also got up to greet him

"Lord Cao Bao".

"Hehe, why should Mr. Li Mo be like this, in fact, I have heard about it a long time ago, Mr. Li Mo implemented the Tuntian system in Yanzhou, and indirectly rescued tens of thousands of displaced people, what a talent at that time."

"Hehe, Lord Cao Bao is overrated, please

".

"Please".

After the two briefly politely exchanged words, Cao Bao also stepped directly into the theme

"Mr. Li Mo, my father-in-law has agreed to Cao Cao's request, communicate with each other, and agree to do business, but in troubled times, however, salt, iron, grain, these things are not within the scope of trade for the time being, and I hope Mr. Li Mo can understand."

"Nature is born in troubled times".

Regarding Tao Qian's agreement to do business but not allowing grain, salt, iron and other things to circulate to Yanzhou, Li Mo had already expected that these were important strategic materials in this era, how could he agree to circulate casually, and it was certain that he would be rejected

"That's fine, since that's the case, I won't say more, and my lord will send the paperwork over when I go back, and it won't take too long."

Cao Bao didn't mention it, but in fact, Li Mo had already heard it, this Tao Qian was driving himself away, he could think of it, Tao Qian, Mi Zhu and others could also think of it, if Li Mo really died in Xuzhou now, then Tao Qian couldn't tell it even if he had 800 mouths, and he would inevitably fight Cao Cao head-on at that time

"Thank you, Lord Cao Bao, by the way, Li Mo still has one more thing."

"But it doesn't hurt to say".

"Lord Cao Bao is a local family in Xuzhou, and he has the trust of Taozhou Mu, looking at the whole of Xuzhou, there should be no character comparable to Lord Cao Bao, the future must be limitless, Li Mo wants to make friends with Lord Cao Bao."

"Make friends?".

Hearing Li Mo's flattering words, coupled with Li Mo's meaningful words, Cao Bao was a little stunned for a while, and Li Mo immediately slapped his face, and soon someone brought a box directly in and put it in Li Mo's hand, Li Mo was not polite, and opened the box directly, and what was placed inside was a set of exquisite glasses, which made Cao Bao's eyes change slightly

"Lord Cao Bao, friends, naturally we want to support each other, Li Mo is willing to become friends with Lord Cao Bao, if Lord Cao Bao needs anything in the future, Li Mo will naturally not refuse, this is a small gift, please accept it."

Looking at this crystal clear glass that can even shine on people's faces, Cao Bao's eyes are also full of love, thinking of what Li Mo said, Cao Bao immediately realized what Li Mo meant, Li Mo is making investment, which shows that he is supporting himself to become a Xuzhou pastor in the future, but he didn't say it explicitly

Thinking of the rumors about Li Mo that he heard, Cao Bao immediately knew in his heart, although Cao Bao looked down on businessmen like Li Mo, but Cao Bao would indeed accept this gift, after all, no one doesn't care about money, especially this kind of treasure

"Hahaha, okay, rest assured, Fengying will be my Cao Bao's friend in the future, by the way, I came today to bring some gifts for Fengying, which have been placed in the wing, Fengying enjoys it."

"In that case, then thank you Lord Cao Bao, please

."

"Please".

Looking at Cao Bao's fake performance, Li Mo didn't say anything, and after some talking, he sent Cao Bao away directly, and when it was nightfall, Mi Zhu visited again

Li Mo knew that Cao Bao's ability was mediocre, and he mostly relied on his family background, and the gift given by Li Mo was not valuable to Li Mo, but it was enough for Li Mo to establish contact with Cao Bao, Cao Bao was a general under Tao Qian after all, and in Xuzhou he was second only to Zang Ba, the existence with the most troops in his hands

And it is a big family, before Cao Cao and Tao Qian went to war, there is no doubt that Cao Bao has the right to speak is very important, and after establishing contact with Cao Bao, so that Cao Bao feels that he has taken advantage, Li Mo will be able to send a caravan in Xuzhou unimpeded, which is Li Mo's precaution
