Chapter 316 Yuan Datou

In Yanzhou, Chenliu Zuixian Tower, according to Zhao Feng's instructions, the boss sent an invitation to Cao Cao's mansion.

The boss behind Zuixianlou is Zhao Feng. This matter is basically no secret among the Han Han. However, the princes had no reason to remove him. They were greedy for money, such as Yuan Shao and Dong Zhuo. After receiving the news, they sent troops to plunder Zuixianlou, but they didn't even find a grain of corn. In desperation, they had to give up.

All the Zuixianlou in the Han Dynasty are very magical, no matter what the local harvest is, no matter whether there is a disaster, as long as you enter Zuixianlou to order food, you will definitely be able to eat what you want, and no matter how much you eat, it can be said to be a continuous stream!

This made the princes very puzzled. Where did the ingredients in Zuixianlou come from? Whether it is light or dark, they have investigated more than once, but the mysterious veil of Zuixianlou has not been exposed by them.

"Hiss... this ghost weather is so cold!" In the hall of the Zuixian Tower, Cao Cao rubbed his hands and his body kept trembling.

I saw that Cao Cao was wearing more than a thick robe, which was just three layers inside and three layers outside. However, this winter seemed particularly cold. Faced with the cold air, the effect of these robes was almost zero.

"Haha, please Cao Mi noodles. My lord prepared a little wine to drive away the cold!" said the shopkeeper with a smile.

"But that jar of nectar is a thousand gold jar?" Cao Cao smiled wickedly when he heard the shopkeeper's words, "I won't drink that kind of wine!"

"Haha, it's easy to say, Mr. Cao, and all the experts, please come and ask!" The shopkeeper stretched out his hand and led Cao Cao and his subordinates to a private room.

"Shopkeeper, aren't you cold when you wear this little?" Xu You asked.

At this time, everyone realized that the shopkeeper in front of him was only wearing a single dress and a pair of single pants on his lower body, which looked like he was dressed in summer.

"Haha, it's not cold at all!" The shopkeeper shook his head and walked into the private room, still smiling.

"Aren't you cold?" The rest of the people looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't know.

Shaking his head, Cao Cao followed the shopkeeper and entered the private room. As soon as he entered the private room, he felt a wave of heat coming, as if it was from winter to summer!

"Please sit down, please wait for the food and drinks!" The shopkeeper said with a smile, then exited the room.

"Why is it so hot? It's so damn!" After Xiahou Dun entered the room, he felt that his robes could no longer be worn. He quickly took off several robes outside, and his upper body was directly naked, just like Xia Tian was in his own mansion.

"It's really hot!" Man Chong wiped the sweat from his forehead and began to take off his clothes.

"Skillful craftsmanship! It's so clever craftsmanship!" Liu Ye sighed while taking off his clothes.

The crowd took off several layers of clothes outside, looking the same as the shopkeeper just now. Now they finally understood why the shopkeeper was only wearing that little bit!

"The wine and food are here! Dear adults, use it slowly!" The private room door opened, and the shopkeeper and the guys brought one delicacy after another.

"Shopkeeper, wait a moment!" Just as the shopkeeper was about to leave the room, Cao Cao stopped him.

"I wonder what else does Cao Gong have?" asked the shopkeeper.

"To be honest with the shopkeeper, we all want to know why this private room is so hot?" Cao Cao told everyone's questions.

"Haha, it turns out that I was asking this." The shopkeeper still had that expression, "Please come and see, it's because of this thing!"

When they came to the shopkeeper's side, they followed the direction of the shopkeeper's finger, everyone saw an unknown iron barrel-like thing.

"This thing is called a furnace, which was invented by my lord and used to keep warm in winter!" said the shopkeeper.

"Huh?" Cao Cao's eyes lit up. If there were such things in his room, then he would not have been trembling with cold in the room or even in the quilt!

"Is this thing sold?" After making up his mind, Cao Cao immediately asked.

"No!" The shopkeeper shook his head.

Seeing this, Cao Cao was disappointed, but then the shopkeeper's next words made Cao Cao really happy.

"My lord said that Mr. Cao and Mrs. Cao are very good friends. No matter how much the furnace costs, it is for the benefit of the people. The lord is unshirkable. Even if he installs a set of furnaces for all the people under Mr. Cao, the lord will not ask Mr. Cao for a penny!" said the shopkeeper with a smile.

"Zihu is so righteous, Cao feels inferior to himself! In this way, Cao thanked Zihu for the people under his rule!" Cao Cao bowed three times to the shopkeeper without saying a word.

"However, Cao Gong, one thing needs to be stated is that the stove is made of coal cakes, which are specially made in Liaodong. The process is a bit complicated, so the cost of this coal cake still needs to be borne by the people under Cao Gong and the people under Cao Gong's rule!" The shopkeeper said very tactfully.

"How much is the cost of this coal cake?" Cao Cao asked.

In fact, Cao Cao was not worried. He had been recuperating for more than a year, and now he was at a time when he was rich in money and wealth!

"It's expensive, it's cheap, it's cheap, it's only 100 yuan per coal cake." The shopkeeper smiled and helped Cao Cao settle the accounts. "Cao Gong, look, this coal cake can be burned for one or two hours, and it can't be burned ten yuan a day. In a year, there are Xuzhou and Yuzhou, and Xuzhou are not as good as Liaodong. It's not as bitter and cold as Liaodong. It can only be burned for more than three months a year, about one hundred days, and this household will only cost 100 taels of silver in a year!"

"Yeah, that's true!" Cao Cao nodded, "Can't you be cheaper?"

"Hey, that's how I think Cao Gong is really thinking about governing the people. I cut 10% of the money for Cao Gong in private, and this way, 90 yuan per cake! Cao Gong, what do you think? We sold ten taels of silver per cake in Yuan Shao, and he still had to pay the cost of the stove!" said the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was right. A few days ago, in the Zuixian Tower in Yecheng, the shopkeeper also invited Yuan Shao to have a meal and introduced him to the stove. The price of the stove is one gold per gold, while the price of coal cake is ten taels per one.

Yuan Shao was desperate for face, refused to bargain, nor was he willing to admit that he could not afford it. He immediately ordered twenty stoves and twenty thousand coal cakes to give to his subordinates.

The subordinates were all grateful, but they didn't know that the transaction was already profitable in Liaodong, and the furnace cost was less than 100 yuan. Coal cakes? That was even lower-cost things, almost zero cost, and mining was used for slaves. All Zhao Feng's craftsmen asked for processing, so under Zhao Feng's rule, the coal cakes could be sold for one or two!

Originally, Zhao Feng did not set the price for the shopkeeper in Yecheng, but just said, the more expensive the better, but he never expected that Yuan Shao would accept such an outrageous price, and even bought twenty copies directly!
