Three Kingdoms: Liu Daer Was Forced Out of the Mountain at the Beginning

"Old man?"

Cheng Yu couldn't help but was slightly stunned when he heard Bai Feng's words:

"I wonder, Governor Bai, how can I help you?"

Bai Feng smiled and said:

"Master Cheng has been a pianong officer for a long time."

"Until now, we in the Wei Dynasty don't have a better pianong officer than you."

"This time, I also ask Mr. Cheng to go to Hanzhong with me for a few days to stabilize the dianong in Hanzhong."

"I'm very grateful."

Cheng Yu suddenly smiled bitterly:

"Commander Bai, are you making fun of me?"

"Although I have been a pianong officer, I can't compare with Taishou Bai."

"Prefect Bai's knowledge of farming has already surpassed me by an unknown amount. Wouldn't it pale in comparison to me?"

Bai Feng smiled and said:

"Master Cheng is too humble. It is not good for people to be too humble."

"The main reason is that after I arrive in Hanzhong, I have other things to do, so I really can't go with Diannong."

"So, please ask Mr. Cheng to help me next time."

Cao Cao on the side said with a smile:

"Zhongde has nothing to do in Xuchang these days, so he might as well go with him."

"But sir, do you have anything more important to do?"

Bai Feng smiled calmly and said:

"It's business."

"Hanzhong has a superior terrain, but the surrounding resources are relatively scarce."

"If we want to liberate Hanzhong, a county that has been isolated for hundreds of years, the best way is to open up business routes."

Bai Feng's statement was simply unheard of by Cao Cao and Cheng Yu.

What the hell?

Business?

Isn't business the lowest profession? Scholars, workers, farmers and merchants, how can commerce rejuvenate the country? Promoting agriculture is the way to go!

Bai Feng naturally saw through their minds and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, I have a solution."

"King Wei, Mr. Cheng, you can imagine that the output is so amazing now, and the farmers are full and have a lot of surplus."

"Then what should we do with this food? We can't just put it in a warehouse and wait to rot, right?"

"At this time, businessmen need to take action."

"Let businessmen sell the grain for money. With money, you can do many things, so businessmen can govern the country."

"If it is digested internally, it can also promote economic development, which will be completely beneficial to the Wei Dynasty without any harm."

Cheng Yu and Cao Cao were immediately stunned.

This kind of governance is simply unheard of!

If someone else said this, neither of them would pay attention, and they might even be punished with the crime of bewitchment.

But it was Bai Feng who said this.

Bai Feng has given everyone too many surprises, and both of them believe in Bai Feng.

Cheng Yu smiled bitterly and said:

"Everyone in our country is planting corn, potatoes and sweet potatoes, and the output will only increase."

"How to digest this internally? Everyone is not short of food."

Bai Feng smiled and said:

"You can export foreigners. Although the foreigners are not rich, they have mineral materials."

"Our Dawei's mineral materials are limited, and we will eventually run out of them. At this time, we can use the surplus grain to trade with them."

Cao Cao frowned slightly and said:

"But what the aliens lack most is food. This is why the Central Plains has an advantage over them. If we sell it to them rashly."

"Those who are not from my race must have different minds. If they invade the Central Plains, wouldn't it be..."

Cao Cao's worries are not unreasonable. After all, Cao Cao has been fighting nomads such as the Xiongnu in the north.

Cao Cao knew a lot about these foreign races.

It's almost impossible to get them to be honest.

Bai Feng smiled calmly and said:

"It's just some food. They have it, and we will have more."

"What's more, the mineral materials we exchange can be used to make various weapons and armors. If we go back and forth like this, they will be unable to attack even if they want to."

"The biggest characteristic of nomads is robbing."

"We equip all the soldiers defending the city with grenades and firecrackers, and let them rob them. It's hard for them to enter the city gate."

After hearing Bai Feng's analysis, the two of them nodded frequently.

That being said, it is indeed the case.

Even if these grains are exported, they are still left over from the Wei Dynasty, but these mineral materials have no effect on foreign races.

If it is exchanged in this way, it will definitely be very easy to exchange. A small amount of food can be exchanged for a large amount of mineral materials and money.

If the border defense line is improved, it will be difficult for foreigners to invade.

After all, the north has been unified now, and with Xiliang's mediation, these foreign races will definitely be able to be kept away thousands of miles away.

Bai Feng continued:

"Moreover, these alien races are short of food all year round. This is an extremely good deal for them. As long as they have some brains, they will not cut it off."

"If you want to fight, just use cannonballs to greet them."

"If it doesn't work, just kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. This is what happened with the Huns before. Let them be more honest. Of course they will only do honest transactions."

Hearing this, Cao Cao couldn't help but smile calmly and said:

"Wonderful, wonderful! I never thought that sir has such a deep understanding and overall view of business."

"It's really impressive."

"Okay, just as your husband said, Zhongde, you go to help your husband first and help him take care of the pawn farmers in Hanzhong."

Cheng Yu also smiled and said:

"I am bound to do my duty."

"Sir, this plan really makes me admire you!"

Cheng Yu is not good at business, but after all, he has been working in Xuchang for a long time and has had many interactions with businessmen.

In Cheng Yu's view, few people dare to trade in such a "bold" way like Bai Feng.

But this trading method also brings the greatest benefits.

Mining in the Central Plains costs a lot of money and labor throughout the year.

Doing so will not only free up a lot of labor, but also strengthen the military.

No matter how much you think about it, you can make money.

When Cheng Yu just finished counting the grain output, he actually thought about how to deal with the excess grain.

If so much grain was grown in every state and county, even if only half of it was grown, the annual output would be enough for three or four years.

This number is also very conservative.

If accumulated like this, it will only become more and more.

If food is wasted in warehouses, it will be a waste of resources.

And Bai Feng's plan not only easily resolved this matter, but also transformed it into the area that Wei Wei was most in need of right now.

It's no small feat to accomplish multiple things with one stone.

It may be feasible to govern the country through business!

Cheng Yu felt filled with emotion.

Unexpectedly, Bai Feng is not only a hero in troubled times, but also has no concessions in governing the country!

This made Cheng Yu couldn't help but secretly admire Bai Feng.

This kid has a lot to offer!

Soon, Bai Feng will take office and head to Hanzhong.

Cheng Yu naturally handed over all the work at hand and left with Bai Feng.

As for Li Cunxiao and others, they followed Deng Ai and Bai Feng to Hanzhong.

Hanzhong is where I start again!
