Conquer all worlds starting from the mythical Three Kingdoms

A huge war ended, and Xinghan was hardly affected.

Mu Yi also felt relieved about this situation. Xinghan spent so much manpower and resources to support these kings, wasn't it just to keep the war outside of their own territory?

At least from the current point of view, everything is worth it. It is too painful to break some bottles and jars in your own home. It is more comfortable to fight a war on the territory outside.

On the other hand, after Cao Ren went back and conveyed the situation of the war to Cao Cao, Cao Cao was in a state of headache.

Sun Wu faced the Qing court head-on and became an unlucky guy, but his current situation does not seem to be much better than Sun Wu's.

He is facing a much larger and more dangerous empire.

Although Xinghan and Daming are now in an alliance and cooperation relationship, Cao Cao is still very worried. Once Xinghan and Daming fall out, he will become the first line of defense.

"My lord, don't worry. We are still stable during the period of alliance between the two sides!" Cheng Yu was not too worried, and he did not have the time to worry.

Some time ago, Guan Yu was like a god descending from heaven and plowed all the nearby countries aside. Now Cao Cao's territory is several times larger than before, and Cheng Yu, as the logistics director, is simply too busy to handle it.

Xi Zhicai formed an envoy group to visit the world opposite the Ming Dynasty, hoping to see if he could establish a trading point and conduct trade with the other side.

There are still some special products in their territory, and they want to try to trade for some other things in Ming Dynasty.

It would be best if talents from the Ming Dynasty could come back to work.

They are extremely short of manpower, and the Ming Dynasty spans several worlds. Perhaps some students want to go to another place to make a name for themselves. Power is very tempting.

In the Ming Dynasty, this student might only be able to be a county magistrate, but with Cao Cao, he might directly become a county governor.

Without Xi Zhicai, Cao Cao and Cheng Yu became even busier, which caused Cao Cao a headache in the past two days and seriously affected the progress of handling government affairs.

"What are the final test results of the samples sent to Luoyang?"

Cao Cao also knew that worrying would not solve the problem, and development was the only way out, so he changed the subject and asked about the tribute.

As kings sent from outside the capital, they gained power but also had to bear obligations.

Tribute, sending troops, trade, resource supply...

This is also the reason why Cao Cao wanted to do business with the Ming Dynasty. By doing business with the Ming Dynasty, he could raise the price and make the goods more valuable.

But with Xinghan, it is purely a matter of paying off debts. Although Xinghan will also pay for the goods, he will also deduct part of the debt from it.

If you want to grow and develop, you have to find ways to connect with other regions.

After all, they borrowed too many things from Xinghan, even Cao Cao, the King of Wei, borrowed them.

It is impossible to pay off such a huge debt in a short period of time, so we have to find other ways.

Before, they could still trade with the surrounding countries and earn labor for production. Now, the surrounding countries have been defeated by them, and the remaining countries have tense relations with them. It will be impossible to restore normal trade relations in a short time.

So they set their sights on the Ming Dynasty.

Trade is not conducted in the name of countries, but in the name of regions.

Just like there are merchants between Chang'an and Luoyang, there is always profit to be made.

"The evaluation data given by Luoyang is not high, and the overall value is not great!" Cheng Yu felt a little headache when he said this.

After obtaining new special resources, a sample would always be sent to Luoyang for Huang Tianji to test, but the results were not satisfactory.

It’s not that these special resources they discovered are useless. After all, they are special products. Some Warcraft cores and the secret techniques of this world are still very valuable for reference.

Their current main method of repaying their debts is to make a backup copy of the secret techniques and knowledge they have collected, and then send it to Luoyang, where Huang Tianji will assess the value and then make the settlement.

The secret techniques are easy to deal with, the problem lies with the special resources.

Not only are they expanding outward, but Wu and Shu are also expanding outward, and it is inevitable that some special resources will have overlapping values.

For Luoyang, for the same value, it is natural to choose better quality special resources, unless there is a big gap, then they will accept all of them.

The several resources that Cao Cao had sent back before were directly destroyed by those sent back by Sun Wu.

As for the materials used as energy, what Cao Cao and his companions sent back were beast cores, which are a specialty of their world. Only beasts of about the level of internal energy formation can produce this kind of beast core, and the stronger they are, the better the effect.

These monster cores can serve as the power source materials for Feipeng and Zhulou, and their value is quite good.

However, Sun Wu found something similar to the Spirit Stone Mine. The mined Spirit Stones not only have more energy than beast cores, but are also easier to mine and are a renewable resource.

The mining was simple, the effect was better, and the delivery was stable. Cao Cao's side was immediately in great demand, especially after the Terracotta Warriors assembly line stopped production. There was no need for so many things, resulting in Luoyang only receiving a small part.

This made Cao Cao want to send troops to beat up Sun Quan, the new King of Wu.

This is completely cutting off their source of income, but the reality is unavoidable.

Not to mention that they simply couldn't spare the manpower to fight Sun Quan. As their territory expanded, the difficulty of governance also increased exponentially. There were even remnants of the royal family who carried out terrorist attacks and rebellions, which made them extremely anxious.

Even if they could spare some manpower to fight Sun Quan, Danyang, which had just experienced the baptism of war, would not be a soft persimmon. If a real fight broke out, it would be hard to say who would beat whom.

At least at this stage, Cao Cao and Cao Ren are definitely no match for Zhou Yu in terms of command.

War is always a catalyst for growth. After experiencing the tempering of high-intensity war, even veterans like Huang Gai and Han Dang have made great progress.

There is no way. If we don’t make progress, people will die.

Huang Gai was really just a little bit away from death.

In comparison, Cao Cao's side was too comfortable. The war on their side was basically dependent on Guan Yu's divine power.

His efficient command and strong personal ability made Cao Cao salivate, and he was even willing to offer the position of general to invite Guan Yu to stay.

It’s a pity that he was destined not to get Guan Yu.

As soon as the deal between Liu and Cao was concluded, Guan Yu returned to Liu Bei's side, showing no sign of being tempted by Cao Cao's recruitment.

"My lord, my lord, good news, good news!"

Xi Zhicai walked in from outside with a big laugh, looking full of energy.

"Why are you so happy?" Cao Cao asked in surprise. This was the first time he saw Xi Zhicai like this.

"We have negotiated a trade line with the Ming Dynasty. Trading on a regional basis is a good thing for both sides. After investigation, I found a lot of things they need. We can definitely make huge profits through trade!"

"Great!" Cao Cao was overjoyed. Xi Zhicai knew about their inventory of supplies and was so excited. It was obvious that the inventory of supplies could be of great use.

"There is one more thing, my lord. Can you send someone to contact the immortal masters and get some elixirs from them?" Xi Zhicai asked mysteriously.

"Medicine? That shouldn't be a problem. They sell it to the public. With the authority of King Wei, we can buy a batch of medicine from there."

"The quantity doesn't need to be too large, scarcity makes things valuable!" Xi Zhicai became even more excited.

"What's wrong with you?" Cao Cao was a little confused. Xi Zhicai seemed to have completely lost his usual composure.

"I have discovered a great opportunity!" Xi Zhicai couldn't stop smiling.

"Oh? Tell me in detail!" Cao Cao became even more curious.

"My lord, have you read the Records of the Three Kingdoms recorded by King Song?" Xi Zhicai asked back.

"Of course I have seen it. Wei Wu, Prime Minister... Haha, it's also an interesting development!" Cao Cao nodded.

“This Ming Dynasty is even later than the Song Dynasty. Some people have been deified in history!” Xi Zhicai couldn’t help but smile.

"The Ming Dynasty across from us is governed by Prince Jiajing, who is an avid fan of cultivating immortals. Hearing that there are immortals in the Milky Way, he is willing to pay a huge price to obtain some elixirs!"

Cao Cao immediately understood the source of Xi Zhicai's ecstasy. As the saying goes, leaders lead by example. As the supreme ruler of the world, his preferences will have a huge impact on those below.

They could definitely make a fortune using the elixir.

These are real immortals and real elixirs, plus the bonus of fame, this is probably the biggest profit among the biggest profits.

"I'll go buy the elixir myself right away!" Cheng Yu rushed out without saying a word, intending to return to Luoyang to buy the elixir.

"This Zhongde! I haven't finished talking yet!"

Xi Zhicai smiled helplessly. He could understand Cheng Yu. When he first realized this, he was more anxious than Cheng Yu. If he didn't have to investigate other things, he would have wanted to fly back at that time.

"My Lord, there is one more thing. Someone wants your calligraphy, especially the poem "Viewing the Sea"! Someone even wants you to write this poem on a painting!"

"Alas, this poem..." Cao Cao shook his head.

"Viewing the Sea" is his poem, which he had seen in the "Collection of Yuefu Poems" produced in the Song Dynasty, but the problem was that he was not yet old enough to write this poem.

Xi Zhicai smiled even more. After his trip to Ming Dynasty, he realized what the biggest advantage of their trade with Ming Dynasty was.

That's fame!

Not only the fame of those immortals, but also the fame of Cao Cao and others can be used as bargaining chips for them.

It is not known whether the prince who asked Cao Cao to write a poem for him really liked the poem or was just trying to show off his taste for art, but the price he offered moved Xi Zhicai so much that he rushed back to persuade Cao Cao to write a poem.

Cao Cao was reluctant at first, but he could not resist Xi Zhicai's persuasion and finally submitted the poem.

After all, he was a literary giant and was accustomed to this kind of thing. Before, some scholars and officials from the Song Dynasty had made the same request to him.

Xi Zhicai's operations successfully created huge profits for Cao Wei, the value of which was so high that even Huang Tianji was a little surprised.

"What? Guo Fengxiao, are you planning to intercept?"

Chen Gong looked at Guo Jia with some curiosity. Ever since he learned about Xi Zhicai's amazing operations and profits, Guo Jia had fallen into silence, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"I'm not that bored. Cao Mengde is indeed blessed with natural advantages. I'm just wondering if we can also use this to generate income." Guo Jia looked at the information in front of him with a gleam in his eyes.

"what are you planning to do?"

"The secret cannot be revealed!" Guo Jia smiled mysteriously.

Chen Gong raised his eyebrows, and after thinking for a while without any result, he directly opened up his spiritual talent.

"Are you planning to fake something?" After Chen Gong activated his spiritual talent, his IQ skyrocketed and he instantly realized what Guo Jia was planning to do.

"I didn't forge anything. I just sold them things from the past!" Guo Jia's smile deepened.

Some things may not be valuable, but they are very valuable if they carry traces of history. He plans to study this idea and perhaps create a type of trade directly.

"Antiques are good things! Doesn't the Ji family claim to have relics left over from the Yellow Emperor period? I'll make a few pieces based on them!" The smile on Guo Jia's face grew even wider.

They just make antiques from their time. The Ming people are not fools. They may try it for novelty at first, but they will definitely reach saturation later.

It would be better to go directly to a more ancient place. He knew the history of the Ming Dynasty. After experiencing major events such as the Five Barbarians' Invasion, the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, and the Migration of the Elites to the South, the ancient artifacts were estimated to have been lost. Even if they were not lost, they must be in that tomb.

But it’s different on their side. They can use the advantages of this era to fool the other side, even though their history is completely different.

But it can be faked. Anyway, the other party has never seen the real thing. Even if there is a problem, you can attribute it to a different world.

This deal is simply unbeatable.

Guo Jia was very excited. Although Chen Gong felt something was not right, he did think that Guo Jia's idea was a good one.

Maybe it can really become a major income-generating project.

In the trade between them and the Ming Dynasty, there are indeed many things that can be obtained from the Ming Dynasty.

But when it comes to trade, unilateral dumping is not a good thing.

If Xinghan could start a few revenue-generating projects, it would be completely beneficial to him.

Chen Gong could also imagine that Guo Jia would not proceed in an official name, but would find two white gloves to directly deceive the Ming Dynasty. Judging from the results achieved by Cao Cao, it might really create great value.

"Are there any loopholes?"

Guo Jia looked at Chen Gong, waiting for Chen Gong's rebuttal.

After a long time, Chen Gong shook his head. This was indeed not a fraud, but a word game that was difficult to define.

But their identities were indeed correct, and it was difficult for Chen Gong to judge what this behavior was, but Chen Gong was not a good person either.

After discovering that there was indeed no loophole, he directly joined Guo Jia's rebellion plan, and was even more excessive than Guo Jia.

At least Guo Jia found something real to imitate, but Chen Gong just made it up out of nothing and started making up stories. However, Chen Gong was so smart that nine out of ten of the logic he made up were true and one was false. He also made a large number of forgeries to confuse the audience.

Using fake to cover up fake, most people don't notice this thinking trap at all.
