Three Kingdoms: The most powerful behind-the-scenes boss

Early next morning.

The General's Mansion.

A burly man sat upright.

Below it, civil servants and generals were lined up on both sides.

This person is none other than He Jin, the brother of the current queen.

He Jin frowned and looked at Yuan Shu in the palace:"You want me to buy a book? What do I want with that thing? Can it be used to kill enemies? Don't buy it, don't buy it, definitely don't buy it!"

"Forehead......that......"

When Yuan Shu was adjusting his thoughts, Yuan Shao appeared from the side and bowed his hands:"General, although you don't like reading, if you want to recruit scholars, you must buy books!"

"oh?

He Jin turned to look at Yuan Shao, frowned and said:"At the beginning, what does recruiting scholars have to do with buying books?" Do you want me, the general, to buy books and give them to those scholars? It’s not like they don’t have books in their hands!"

"General!"

Yuan Shao was also helpless. After all, He Jin was born as a butcher, and his thinking was incompatible with the scholars:"Have you ever heard the story of buying bones for a thousand gold?"

Yuan Shao gave a simple example.

General He Jin particularly liked war horses, so he had naturally heard the story of buying bones for a thousand gold.

He nodded:"This......This general knows! Is it about a courtier who buys a thousand-mile horse for the king, but only comes back with the bones of a dead horse?"

"Exactly!"Yuan Shao nodded and said

"how? Is buying bones the same as buying books? He Jin asked tentatively.

Yuan Shao breathed a sigh of relief:"General, you are smart!" This paper version of the book is now very popular in Luoyang. It was made by a businessman from the Western Regions using precious materials in the same way as Caihou paper. It is extremely valuable."

"Situ Yang gave a birthday banquet yesterday, the general must know about it! But what the general didn't know was that at the banquet, Cao Ang, the son of the later general Cao Cao, took out a"Yang Clan Book", which was the paper version of the book. It was extremely gorgeous!"

"If it weren't for the fact that it was too expensive, Yang Situ would probably make an exception and accept Cao Ang's gift!" hiss~~~~

He Jin couldn't help but gasp.

Those big eyes kept twitching in their sockets.

He naturally knows the rules of the Yang family, and it is absolutely extraordinary to be able to make Yang Ci have the impulse to make an exception and accept gifts!

"Is this happening?"

He Jin couldn't help but ask.

"That's right!"

Yuan Shao nodded solemnly:"Cao Ang is still young and doesn't know what it means for Yang Gong to accept the gift, so he exposed the price without knowing it, causing Yang Gong to reject it cruelly."

"How much is that book worth?"

He Jin leaned forward and asked hurriedly

"I heard it’s worth tens of thousands of dollars!"

Yuan Shao blurted out without hesitation

"How many? He

Jin was so frightened that his eyes almost popped out of his head:"It's just a broken book, but it's worth ten thousand gold?""

"General, be careful!

Yuan Shao stopped immediately, with a trace of anger hidden in his eyebrows:"Books in the hearts of scholars represent the words of saints. How can you get the support of scholars by slandering the words of saints like this!""

"Blame me! Blame me! He

Jin slapped his forehead, took a long breath, and continued:"In the beginning, a thousand-mile horse was only worth a hundred or a thousand gold, but a book is worth ten thousand gold. Isn't it a little too worth it?""

"General!"

Yuan Shu was afraid that Yuan Shao would steal the limelight, so he quickly interrupted:"Although Chollima is rare, at least there are traces to follow, but that kind of book is probably the only one in the world and will never be found again."

"It is made from white birch bark at the foothills of the Tianshan Mountains in the Western Regions. It is taken from the Tianquan at the top of the Tianshan Mountains and mashed into mud. After ninety-nine and eighty-one times of cooking and filtering, it is mashed into mud in seventy-nine and forty-nine days! That kind of paper was made just by the exposure of the scorching sun!"

At this point, Yuan Shu made another analogy:"General, you must have seen Caihou paper. Even the very high-quality Caihou paper is yellow and wrinkled, not well preserved, and easily eaten by insects!"

"But that kind of paper is not only white and smooth, like the snow on the Tianshan Mountains, but also has an excellent texture and is not easily eaten by insects. The pen and ink falling on the paper, black and white, are extremely beautiful!"

"I can guarantee that as long as they are scholars who study, no one can refuse those kinds of paper books! You know, now almost all books are kept in aristocratic families, and there is no need to buy them outside!"

"That businessman from the Western Regions didn't understand the culture of the Central Plains, yet he sold his goods for ten thousand gold. This was really a blessing from heaven to the general! As long as you buy that kind of book, you are guaranteed to become famous among the scholars in Luoyang! He

Jin suddenly became interested, and his eyes gleamed!

Yuan Shao took over the conversation:"General, you don't have to read the books yourself, but it represents a move to get closer to the scholars. Nowadays, the scholars have been suppressed for a long time." , and not long after the ban was lifted, it was a time of hesitation!"

"General, just imagine! If you spent a lot of money to buy the paper book at this time, celebrities from all over the world would definitely flock to it. Are you still worried about not getting support from the scholars? He

Jin suddenly became enlightened, looked up to the sky and laughed loudly:"What Ben Chu said is true!" It's time to buy those books at this time. If we can get help from scholars, why should we be afraid of castrating dogs!"

"but......"

At this point, He Jin suddenly frowned:"Except for the book in Cao Ang's hand, the rest are all in the hands of the merchant from the Western Regions. How can we find that merchant?"

"What a coincidence!

Yuan Shu chuckled and came closer:"Cao Ang once revealed the news after the banquet. In as little as three days or as many as five days, merchants from the Western Regions will definitely arrive in Luoyang!"

He Jin did not hesitate, waved his hand and said:"Then what are you waiting for? Send people to search immediately. Once the merchant from the Western Regions appears, be sure to invite him into the general's mansion!""

"He Jin can buy as many books as he has in his hand. Money is not a problem, even if it is one hundred thousand gold, I He Jin can also buy it!"

*****

The system is a good thing.

Whatever you want, you can buy it there!

Cao Ang directly exchanged 10,000 Dandy Points for the Disguise Technique.

He chose a quiet time in the night to come out of Yunwu Villa, and when dawn came, he appeared in Luoyang City on time.

Curly hair, dark skin, foreign clothing, and eyes like mountain cannons.

Cao Ang is as if he is possessed by Fa Ge, his acting skills are soaring, and he perfectly interprets a businessman from the Western Regions.

"friend! If purulence lasts for a long time, why should I go away?"

Cao Ang asked a passerby in the Western Region Chinese he developed.

"What the hell?"

The passerby looked confused.

"pus! change! Long! Mode!"

Cao Ang repeated it deliberately and emphatically.

"......"

Passers-by shook their heads to express their ignorance.

"Purulent long-term style!"

Cao Ang pretended to say something, took out the note he carried with him, and handed it to a passerby.

"oh~~~~"

The passerby suddenly realized:"It turns out to be Ronghua Liquor House! Then, go straight, turn left, turn left again, turn right and you will see it at the second intersection!""

"Um?

Cao Ang frowned and pretended not to understand:"Does the mud serve the kidneys?" The kick doesn't hit!

When he shook his head, the passerby understood and pointed ahead:"I'm saying it again, you!" Go straight, turn left......"

During the introduction, a group of soldiers and horses came out in front, and the people around him suddenly opened a path!

"Are you a businessman from the Western Regions?"

"Take a trip with us!"
