Three Kingdoms: Cao Cao is stunned when he reveals his time-traveling identity.
Chapter 139 The Gap Between Brothers-in-Law
Xudu, the post station in the south of the city.
Sima Yi followed Su Chen all the way here.
Mi Zhu was, after all, just a businessman.
This is not a place for him to conduct discussions.
But most importantly, I was able to leave immediately.
Having worked 996 in my past life, I still have to go to work in the Three Kingdoms?
Therefore, Su Chen naturally came to see him.
"Sir, you've arrived?"
Upon arriving at the post station, they saw Mi Zhu standing outside waiting.
"What brings you here today?"
Su Chen didn't bother with any more words and spoke directly.
As they talked, the two arrived at the post station.
"The main issue is still the buying and selling of salt and sugar."
"The main reason for this visit is to hand over the account books to you, sir."
"In addition, there is something even more important."
Mi Zhu said with a smile.
"Important matter?"
"Is it related to buying and selling?"
Su Chen frowned slightly and looked at Mi Zhu.
In Su Chen's eyes, nothing is more important than money.
Right now, it's either Su Chen or Cao Cao.
They're all desperately short of money.
Although salt and sugar had only been on the market for a short time, they had already amassed countless riches.
But this wealth is far from enough.
Now we have Xuzhou, and the various tribes of Yangzhou are about to be conquered.
They want far too much money.
No wonder Boss Cao actually went tomb raiding in history.
It wasn't just Cao Cao.
Even Su Chen was the same.
Just feeding Zhang Liao and Xu Chu's troops was already a headache enough.
"Sir, this matter... is more important than making money."
"Please don't worry about making money, sir."
"The money and account books I brought this time will definitely satisfy you, sir."
Without a second thought, Mi Zhu immediately gave his assurance.
This time, he was absolutely confident.
In such a short time, he earned the money that all his other businesses combined would take five or six years to earn!
The extent to which the salt and sugar business is terrifying is self-evident.
Su Chen looked at Mi Zhu with a suspicious expression:
"What is that?"
As they spoke, Mi Zhu had already led Su Chen into the post station.
As soon as he entered the door, Su Chen was stunned.
A beautiful woman dressed in a light white dress suddenly appeared before him!
A girl from a modest family, gentle and refined!
"And this is...?"
Su Chen was slightly taken aback and looked at Mi Zhu with a puzzled expression.
"Does the sir still remember what the Minister of Works said when he first invited Chen Deng and me here?"
"This is my younger sister, Mi Zhen."
"Lvyun has come to greet you, sir."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen was stunned.
At this moment, Mi Zhen strolled over and smiled slightly:
"This humble girl greets you, sir."
Only then did Su Chen remember.
Just as Mi Zhu was invited over.
In order to prevent Liu Bei from interfering.
Boss Cao issued a decree, which was the emperor's bestowal of marriage upon Su Chen and Mi Zhen!
That's why Mi Zhu was sent directly.
Su Chen didn't take this matter to heart at all.
Now, after Mi Zhu reminded him, Su Chen finally remembered!
Brother, are you serious?
Su Chen looked at Mi Zhu in astonishment.
However, Mi Zhen's appearance completely surprised Su Chen.
Initially, my impression of Mi Zhen was limited to the story of her throwing herself into a well to save Liu Shan (A Dou).
Apart from that, there is virtually no record of her!
Looking at her now, she is in no way inferior to beauties like Diao Chan!
All of this caused Xiao Sima Yi, who was standing to the side, to be shocked.
He looked at Su Chen with complete astonishment, then at Mi Zhu.
If he remembers correctly...
Su Chen is already engaged to Cao Cao's daughter, Cao Qinghe, right?
The marriage contract hasn't even been fulfilled yet, and he's already looking for a concubine?
Moreover, it was actually Cao Cao who found him?
This immediately overloaded Sima Yi's mind.
Even though he could be considered quite knowledgeable.
But I've never seen this before!
It's true that men in ancient times had several concubines, but they did this before they even got married!
"Ahem, this matter was ultimately decided by Sikong."
"We should wait for Sikong to arrive before we discuss this further."
Su Chen rubbed his head.
He didn't care.
But Qinghe will find out about this.
Do not……
If Cao Ang and Cao Cao find out...
Who knows what they'll think?
After all, Cao Cao was just making up a reason at the time.
"Sir, I understand what you mean."
"As Cao Xueqin once said, you are not a native of this region."
"In your household, one can only marry one wife; there is no such thing as taking a concubine."
"However, since you have come here, you should naturally do as the locals do."
"Although you are engaged to Cao Cao's daughter, Qinghe."
"But my younger sister has long admired you, sir, and this marriage was bestowed by the Emperor..."
Mi Zhu's expression became increasingly strange.
Su Chen frowned slightly.
Why is this brother-in-law so eager to send his sister away?
He and Cao Ang are complete opposites!
That's understandable, actually.
After all, Mi Zhu had witnessed Su Chen's talent firsthand during this trip.
Moreover, there was his standing in Cao Cao's eyes.
Being able to attach oneself to Su Chen is tantamount to providing the Mi family with absolute protection.
How could he not care about this?
"Sir, you saw the look on her face when she looked at her younger sister."
"She truly admired her husband."
"I brought it with me today."
"Sir, this marriage is bestowed by the Emperor; it cannot be ignored."
Seeing Su Chen's reaction, Mi Zhu couldn't help but give him another word of advice.
He brought Mi Zhen with him this time, not intending to take her back.
"Alright then..."
Su Chen rubbed his head.
After all, such a beautiful woman has come knocking on your door.
Su Chen wasn't stupid; why would he turn him away?
"Please, Brother Mi, escort Miss Mi Zhen to my residence."
"Just tell them that I've arranged for Miss Mi Zhen to stay."
Su Chen smiled slightly and spoke.
After all, people have come all this way, so we can't leave them without a place to stay, can we?
"I still have official duties to attend to."
"I will see Miss Mi Zhen again after I get back."
Su Chen coughed lightly and continued.
"That's good, that's good."
Mi Zhu was finally relieved.
Immediately afterward, he straightened his expression, took out the account book, and said:
"Sir, these are the account books for this period of time."
"Please take a look, sir."
Su Chen glanced over.
He was momentarily stunned.
The numbers on this page are really too exaggerated!
I did a quick mental calculation.
The money Su Chen received was more than enough to support the soldiers under his command!
Not only that, but there will be even higher incomes later!
Good guy.
It's no joke to say that Mi Zhu was a business genius.
What he handed over was more than a hundred times greater than Su Chen had expected!
It seems I underestimated the dominance of salt and sugar in ancient times.
"good!"
"In that case, I'll have to trouble you from now on."
"I have some things to attend to with my students, so I'll be leaving now."
"Please rest assured, Brother Mi."
"The Emperor's decree must not be forgotten."
Hearing this, Mi Zhu finally felt relieved.
Watching Su Chen leave with Sima Yi.
Unbeknownst to them, Mi Zhen also quietly peeked out and looked at Su Chen's departing figure.
