I win the lottery in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 129

Chapter 129

After the beginning of spring, when the Western Regions Alliance and the missions returned to Chang'an, Cao Cao raised hundreds of thousands of troops and headed towards Xuzhou in a mighty manner. For a while, everyone in Xuzhou was in danger.

Under such a situation, if Liu Bei wanted to keep Xuzhou, it would be impossible without foreign aid. However, Liu Bei asked for help everywhere to no avail.

Liu Biao's troops were restrained by Soochow, and Yuan Shao was trying his best to destroy Gongsun Zan.

Even Lu Bu politely rejected Liu Bei on the pretext of insufficient troops.

Panic in Xuzhou began to spread, and all forces were planning their own plans.

The main combat faction and the main peace faction were arguing endlessly. As a last resort, Liu Bei could only divide his troops and defend.

Of course, all this has nothing to do with Meng Chen who is far away in Chang'an.

At this moment, Meng Chen was pushing soap and scented soap to the envoys of the Western Regions United Mission.

"This thing is soap. Apply a little when washing clothes, and it has a strong decontamination ability." After speaking, Meng Chen asked the maids who had already prepared to start performing hard.

Half an hour later, the group of messengers, who usually opened their mouths while wearing their underwear, finally understood the purpose of the soap.

"This thing is soap, which is usually used to wash dirty hands or take a bath. There are various scent types, but the output is not high."

As soon as this remark came out, the maids began to demonstrate again, only the bathing session was missing!

"Master Hou, how much is this soap? I've got it all." It was the envoy of the Kucha Kingdom who got up to speak, and the words aroused public outrage.

"What's the matter? Kucha Kingdom wants to swallow it all by itself? How much soap is there, and Shanshan Kingdom will cover it all."

"The Western Regions are not limited to Kucha and Shanshan. Why do you wait for everything?"

"Yep……"

……

One word stirred up waves, and the entire conference hall instantly turned into a vegetable collection, with endless quarrels and scolding.

Meng Chen sat on the main seat, frowning without saying a word.

"My lord, this is too outrageous..." Chen Yaojin was about to stop it, but Meng Chen raised his hand to stop it.

"Why only grab the soap? Isn't the soap fragrant?" Meng Chen muttered in a low voice.

Shen Wanshan on the side frowned, then slowly moved to Meng Chen's ear and underestimated, which immediately let Meng Chen's frown relax.

"Cough cough, quiet, quiet, what's the point of arguing in front of this Marquis?" Meng Chen coughed twice, and then drank loudly.

Paused, and then said: "100 yuan soap with ten pieces of soap, the quantity is limited, you can discuss it with Shen Wanshan."

After saying this, Meng Chen got up and left. Shen Wanshan is much more professional than Meng Chen in selling goods.

Although the amount of soap and scented soap produced is not large, Meng Chen believes that in the hands of Shen Wanshan, they will definitely be able to sell for a good price.

After another half an hour, Shen Wanshan appeared in front of Meng Chen with a big belly and a smile.

"What? 100 pieces of soap, [-] yuan soap sold for [-] gold?" Facing Shen Wanshan's report, Meng Chen almost jumped up and said something.

"My lord thinks it's too little? Then Wansan will discuss with them again."

"..." Meng Chen was speechless. No one could be more treacherous than Shen Wansan, a profiteer.

"Immediately send someone to ask Ma Jun if he can make another 100 pieces of soap and [-] yuan soap in five days!"

When Meng Chen opened his mouth, Shen Wanshan shuddered. He originally thought that he was greedy enough for money, but he didn't expect that his lord was even worse than him.

Meng Chen's move is really helpless, Ma Jun's workshop is like a gold-swallowing beast, but for those black technologies that surpass the present, Meng Chen is willing to invest no matter how much money he has.

Compared with other products, soap and toilet soap are completely lucrative!
When the Western Regions Federation and the mission came, they were still in great shape when they returned.

All the interesting things I saw in Chang'an were wiped out by him.

This kind of spending power made Mengchen more convinced that it was right to restart the trade routes in the Western Regions.

"Wan San, how are the preparations for the Western Region branch of the Penguin Chamber of Commerce going?"

"Everything is ready, only manpower is missing."

"Manpower? The shortage of manpower is recruitment. The most important thing in Chang'an is labor force."

Mengchen's words are not groundless. With the economic development of the three areas, the people have lived a relatively stable life.

Such a situation caused refugees from surrounding states to come here one after another.

The open policy towards refugees has doubled the population base under Meng Chen's rule.

The larger the population base, the more troops Mengchen can recruit.

Of course, it is definitely not Meng Chen's wish to be aggressive.

"What my subordinates said is that they are in charge. The importance of the Western Region Branch is self-evident. If there is no reliable candidate, Wansan intends to take charge of it himself."

"This is impossible, Chang'an cannot do without you. How about it, I will recommend a candidate in a few days."

"promise!"

Shen Wansan didn't know what Meng Chen was planning, since Meng Chen said there was someone to choose, then there must be someone to choose.

On this point, the entire Xiliang has reached a consensus.

Whenever Meng Chen introduces new people to join, he must be an elite soldier.

Two months ago, when Meng Chen reminded him to finish the 30 days stipulated in the mission, he got a chance to be rewarded by the system.

Of course, apart from the first batch of assassins, there were five batches of assassins within 30 days, and the most dangerous group had sneaked into the governor's mansion.

Fortunately, Cai Yan usually knew the servants of the governor's mansion well, and thus avoided a vicious incident.

Of course, Liu Biao's actions completely angered Meng Chen, so Shi A accepted a new task, which was to assassinate Liu Biao.

It doesn't matter if you succeed or not, the main purpose is to win a breath.

Ever since, Shi A summoned a group of rangers from Chang'an, and headed for Xiangyang mightily.

On the day Shi A left, Meng Chen used the chance of a lucky draw rewarded by the system.

Fortunately, Mi Zhu was actually selected in the lottery this time.

This is also the fundamental reason why He Mengchen was able to tell Shen Wansan that he would be recommended by someone.

And according to the news from Yebushou, the head of the Mi family, Mi Zhu, brought his third sister, Mi Zhen, to Chang'an long before Cao Jun entered Xuzhou.

Counting the time, the two brothers and sisters Mi Zhu and Mi Zhen should have arrived in Chang'an almost!

When Mi Zhu arrived at the east gate of Chang'an City, he showed a look of shock.

Although it is not the first time to visit Chang'an, Chang'an at this time is not Chang'an at that time.

Even the city walls of Xudu, where today's emperor is located, have never been so magnificent!

"Brother, the merchants along the way are talking about soap and scented soap. It seems that Governor Meng has come up with something new."

"A new thing? That's real money."

After submitting the documents for entering the city, the Mi family brother and sister successfully entered the east gate of Chang'an, but before the carriage had traveled far, a group of soldiers blocked the carriage.

"But Xuzhou Mi Zhu and Mi Zizhong face to face?"
