Because of Guzang Wuzhu, the Jia family grasped the lifeblood of Liangzhou, so they were able to become the default first family in Liangzhou.

Even though the Jia family did not admit it like this, saying that he was the first family in Liangzhou, but with the power of currency, the Jia family could gain countless wealth without any effort. Duan Cheng was very jealous of this.

This is equivalent to a problem of economics in later generations. Cao Chong thought about it and thought he should ask Duan Cheng how he wanted to solve this problem.

"Duan Chanjun, since you know the lifeline of the Jia family, how can you cut off this lifeline of the Jia family?

Since Duan Cheng said that the Jia family's lifeline was about Cao Chong, he naturally had already prepared a way to do this.

Duan Cheng did not hesitate at all and immediately said to Cao Chong: "Junhou, there is a granary outside Guzang City, called Dongcang. There are countless grains and grasses in the Dongcang, which is said to be used by hundreds of thousands of people for more than ten years."

Hundreds of thousands of people have used it for more than ten years?

Then the food and grass in this Dongcang are really astronomical.

"What does join the army mean?"

“Burn it!”

Burned?

Cao Chong was stunned.

“Will this be a little inappropriate?”

“What’s wrong?”

"Jia Quan is the prefect. Although his Dongcang has household food, it must be more public food. If the Dongcang is burned, what should the people of Wuwei or even Liangzhou eat?"

Wuwei is the center of Liangzhou and the capital of Liangzhou. In the Dongcang of Guzang, it naturally stores not only the food and grass of the Jia family, but also the food and grass of the people of Liangzhou.

The reason why the Jia family was able to issue Guzang Wuzhu was more because the prefect Zhong Yao was just a remote leader and had no influence in Liangzhou. As the capital, Wuwei, his prefect was said to be half of the prefect. This is why the Jia family was able to master the issuance of Guzang Wuzhu.

"Junhou, there are two east and west warehouses in Liangzhou, and the east warehouse is gone, and there is also west warehouse. You don't have to worry about Junhou."

Yeah?

Cao Chong's eyes were almost invisible, but the cold light in the cracks made Duan Cheng's heart skip.

"The East and West Warehouses are both granaries of the court. The grains in them not only support the people of Liangzhou and the officials of Liangzhou, but also support the army of Liangzhou. If you burn the grains and grass in Dongcang, will you be responsible for the food for more than 100,000 soldiers in Liangzhou?"

The aristocratic family needs to deal with it, but the matter of burning Dongcang obviously touched Cao Chong's bottom line.

Speaking of which, he is the governor of Liangzhou Prefecture, and he will definitely take back this Dongcang in the near future. He naturally must hold the Guzang Wuzhu firmly in his hands. If the Dongcang is burned, will Guzang Wuzhu still work? Will merchants use it?

Of course there is no more.

Therefore, Cao Chong firmly disagreed with the burning of Dongcang.

Unfortunately, Cao Chong had never studied economics in his previous life, otherwise Cao Chong could have solved this problem with a smarter method.

But even though he hadn't studied economics, Cao Chong knew that burning Dongcang was definitely the most undesirable.

"How can I make the effect of Guzang Wuzhu invalid without burning Dongcang?"

Cao Chong thought for a while and said, "You can force the Jia family to hand over the Guzang Wuzhu in his hand. This Guzang Wuzhu will not be controlled by a certain aristocratic family, but will benefit all the aristocratic families. There is only an executor to do things."

Cao Chong changed the joint-stock company of later generations in another way and told Duan Chengting tactfully.

Duan Cheng finished listening, his face indeed showed a color of interest.

The Dongcang was burned just to make Guzang Wuzhu useless, but it was impossible to say that Duan Cheng had no regrets in his heart.

Now Cao Chong told him that he could pull Guzang Wuzhu out of the Jia family and then control it for all the aristocratic families. Duan Cheng was naturally willing to do such things that could enhance his own strength.

But Duan Cheng was only happy for a moment, and immediately his brows frowned.

"But, how can we make the Jia family hand over Guzang Wuzhu?"

Cao Chong smiled and said, "This is all you need to rely on."

Listening to Cao Chong's tone, Duan Cheng, Zhang Shu, Cao Song and the other two knew that Cao Chong was confident, so they hurriedly asked Cao Chong: "Does the lord have a plan to force the Jia family to surrender?"

Cao Chong nodded.

Just as Cao Chong was about to continue speaking, a man in brocade was rushed to the door.

The man in brocade looks not very old, but his appearance is somewhat similar to Duan Cheng.

It is Duan Sui.

Duan Sui was panting, his face flushed, and his eyes were full of anxiety.

Behind Duan Sui, Zhou Dufu ran in angrily.

"Boy Duan, I didn't ask you to come in directly. I wanted you to come in after you invited Junhou."

Cao Chong looked at Zhou Dufu's appearance and knew that this big head had won Duan Sui a lot of benefits. Otherwise, let alone Duan Sui, even a mosquito would not appear beside Cao Chong under Zhou Dufu's nose.

Seeing Duan Sui appear in front of him in a hurry, Duan Cheng turned black and slapped him directly.

"You evil, do you think the state and the governor's house is your family, and you hurried in without any etiquette. What does your father usually teach you?"

After being slapped by Duan Cheng, Duan Sui had to bow to Cao Chong honestly although there was something urgent in his heart.

"Meet the Lord."

No one knows a son than a father. Similarly, no one knows a father than a son. Duan Sui knows Duan Cheng's nature very well.

If you disobey Duan Cheng, you may not be able to say a word in the end, even if this matter is urgent.

Cao Chong waved to Duan Sui, his lips curled slightly, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said with a smile: "It turns out that he is the Duan family's husband. It's okay. The state and the governor's mansion, you can treat it as your family. Joining the army, although you are teaching your children, this kind of teaching is too strict."

Duan Cheng looked at Cao Chong, and the expression on his face immediately changed from darkness to a smile on his face. It was really faster to change his face than to read a book.

"Your Majesty doesn't know that my son is the most naughty and not strict."

Duan Sui had to stand silently on the side.

"Forget it, join the army, the son came over quickly. It must be a big deal. If you join the army, please listen to Duan Lang say it first. As for what happened next, we still have a lot of time."

"Thank you, marquis."

It can be seen that Duan Cheng’s previous actions were nothing more than a show.

However, Duan Cheng is willing to show up in front of him, and he can also know that Duan Cheng still respects him.

"Sir, why don't you tell me the matter quickly? Do you really think that the king has leisure and look at your despair?"

Duan Sui felt a little aggrieved, but he still said it.

"Father, this is indeed a big deal. I wonder if we can tell it privately?"

Privately?

Duan Cheng looked at the expression on Duan Sui's face, and then thought that Duan Sui broke in during this period of time, it would definitely not be a trivial matter.

Is it really a big deal?

Or something that others don't know?

Duan Cheng bowed to Cao Chong and said, "June, can I let my father and son talk?"

Cao Chong waved his hand and said, "Yes!"

"Thank you, marquis."

Duan Cheng bowed to Cao Chong, then took Duan Sui's hand and left the lobby.

Leave the thoughtful Zhang Shucao Song in the lobby.

As for Cao Chong, he was drinking the wine on the table, and no one knew what he was thinking now.

After leaving the lobby, Duan Cheng was sure that he had been left alone for four people. Duan Cheng looked serious and said to Duan Sui: "Can you say it now?"

Duan Sui nodded and said, "The Jia family has taken action."

"The Jia family takes action?"

"The Jia family has taken action against the slave camp!"

If Duan Sui said the previous sentence, Duan Cheng would still remain calm, but Duan Sui's next sentence made Duan Cheng's face change dramatically.

The lifeline of the Jia family is Guzang Wuzhu, while the lifeline of the Duan family is Duyeze's slave camp.

"Jia Quan dares?"

I haven't even taken action against you, how dare you attack me first?

Duan Cheng was furious.

“How is the damage to the slave camp?”

Duan Sui cried and said, "Not only are the serious damage problems, but now the slave camp is in the hands of the Jia family."

What?

Being directly captured?

Duan Cheng's eyes turned black, but he immediately adjusted.

"There are five thousand defenders in the slave camp, and they are very vigilant. How can the Jia family defeat them?"

"The Jia family sent their number one general, Jia Xiong, and with tens of thousands of people, to directly capture the slave camp. And after hearing the escaped tribesmen, the Jia family was very clear about the structure of the slave camp."
