Sun Quan said: "What can make money? Which one does not make money? By the way, Xiao Fenghuang, go call this businessman who is very good at doing business, and I am also very interested."

Pang Tong said: "This person is a good person, but his name is too vulgar. I'll ask someone to come and find him!"

After a while, someone brought Zhang Dafu over. As soon as he saw Sun Quan, he immediately knelt down and bowed: "Zhang Dafu, a grass man, paid homage to me, Wang Qiansui!"

Sun Quan said: "Get up, how do you know the orphan?"

Zhang Dafu kowtowed again, then got up and stood down, saying, "Caomin was fortunate to see it in the distance when my king went outside to inspect the construction of the city wall."

Sun Quan asked while drinking tea: "I heard that you are very good at doing business. Every time you do business, you will make a lot of money. How did you do it?"

Zhang Dafu said: "Actually, Caomin has no ability. But every time my king asked someone to make something new, Caomin would sell these things to other places. In the past, the caravans of Zhen’s family in the north did not go south, and Caomin built a business road by himself, so he made some money. Last year, my king asked everyone to help transport slaves, and Caomin was the first to let all the fleets participate."

Sun Quan asked again: "How are the guys who are doing business with you?"

After hearing this, Zhang Dafu said proudly: "My king, Caomin's caravan should be considered very good. Caomin gave everyone some dividends, and the monthly salary was far higher than the minimum salary standard set by my king."

Pang Tong said: "I didn't expect you to be so generous?"

Zhang Dafu bowed to Pang Tong and said, "My lord, our business is actually the same as your government and the army. If you make contributions with your own people, you must have corresponding returns. Only in this way can everyone do their best to do the business of the business well, so that the grass-roots business will develop faster!"

Sun Quan said: "I can't see that you are a businessman. You know this truth, but there are too many people who can't see through these things. You only know how to squeeze the guys who follow you. If everyone has the knowledge of you, you don't have to set standards such as the minimum salary and the highest rent. This is the case in this world. If someone works hard for a year but can't even survive, it's forced the people to rebel. The reason why the Yellow Turban Rebellion is so powerful is because everyone can't survive."

Guo Jia said: "My king, but once the people can eat and wear warmth, they will have higher demand!"

Sun Quan smiled and said, "That's natural, but what's the matter? What our governments in various places evaluate them is to make the lives of the people better and better every year. If it's the same every year, then these officials are standing still, and there is no progress. For example, if you don't advance or retreat, it's the same."

After hearing this, Zhang Dafu said, "My king's words make sense. Caomin will also educate some unprofitable shopkeepers in my caravan. Unfortunately, not everyone can listen."

Sun Quan said: "You said just now that managing a business name is the same as generals managing the army, and officials managing the people. Then you should know that to mobilize everyone's enthusiasm, you must clearly distinguish between rewards and punishments. You must find a few people to be role models, give these people more rewards, or give these people better treatment. There must be brave men under heavy rewards. Moreover, after everyone sees the role models, everyone will naturally have a chance. As long as most of them are motivated, the rest will naturally be affected slowly."

Zhang Dafu hurriedly thanked and said, "I, Wang Yingming, if I do business, I will definitely be much better than me."

Pang Tong scolded, "What are you talking about? How could my king do this?"

Sun Quan waved his hand and said, "Okay, isn't it just a casual talk, and he's fussing."

Zhang Dafu dared to get up after seeing Sun Quan excuse him, but he was scared and sweated. Even if he had some money, he would not dare to challenge Sun Quan. He couldn't help but feel scared.

Sun Quan didn't care and continued, "Zhang Dafu, the caravan you formed must need a lot of people to run around. Remember to give priority to recruiting some retired soldiers in the future. They are trained and much better than those who are casually recruited."

Zhang Dafu nodded quickly to agree, but Sun Quan saw that Zhang Dafu was already scared after being drunk by Pang Tongyi, so he said, "Okay, you go down!"

After Zhang Dafu left, Sun Quan said to Pang Tong: "Little Phoenix, do you still think that business is a low-key business, and businessmen are also bitches?"

Pang Tong said: "This... I, king, although we have established the Ministry of Commerce, it can be said that the treatment of merchants has greatly improved and the descendants of merchants are allowed to take the exam, but the people do not recognize merchants so much, and we cannot change our ideas at once."

Sun Quan said: "Okay, if you talk about your own affairs, you will go so far!"

While drinking tea, Sun Quan looked at the auction below and suddenly said, "Two, tell me how to deploy our strategy in the next few years? We need to have a big plan."

Guo Jia looked at Pang Tong while drinking tea and signaled that Pang Tong to say first. Pang Tong said first: "My king, the first thing we need now is to destroy Shu Han in the past two years, and then compete with Cao Wei, striving to destroy Cao Wei in about five years, and then use about three years to destroy Xiliang, Liaodong Gongsun Family and Sanhan.

After hearing this, Guo Jia saw that Sun Quan did not speak, so he continued Pang Tong: "My king, I think it is okay to complete the unification of the world within ten years. Our army and strength can be achieved. However, my king also needs to consider how to treat the Emperor of Han, and we also need to be prepared to deal with the nomadic peoples on the northern grasslands in the future!"

After hearing this, Sun Quan did not speak, first drank a cup of tea, and then said, "Two, why are there only those who dominate the world in your mind? Why is there nothing about the people? For example, what kind of life we ​​want to let the people live in the past few years, what kind of income will be like this year, and what level will the people's income be increased next year? Shouldn't these things be more important?"

Pang Tong and Guo Jia looked at each other, and then said together: "I am dereliction of duty, please give me a punishment!"

Sun Quan said: "Although you are counselors and people from the Military Affairs Office, you are also lonely grand clerks and consultants who formulate national policies. Naturally, you must also change your concepts well. When thinking about problems, you must first think about the people's problems, and then the rest of the military and national affairs."

"What I, the king, taught me a lesson!" the two said in unison.

Sun Quan said: "Okay, you two are smart people, but you cannot change your mind. You must remember this principle in the future. The people are the foundation for the existence and development of a country. Therefore, if a country wants to be strong, the first thing is to make the people rich and strong."

As time passed slowly and the auction ended, Sun Quan suddenly asked: "Guess how much can you two auction mirrors cost today? If anyone guessed more accurately, I will reward him with one more piece."

When Pang Tong heard this, he immediately calculated: "My king auctioned a total of fifty mirrors today. The one in front was basically about 10,000 gold coins, and the one in the thirty-five sides were auctioned. The one in the thirty-five sides behind was Zhang Dafu's 100,000, and the one in the lowest was 50,000 gold coins. I guess it was two million!"

Guo Jia looked at Pang Tong and said, "My king, I guess two million and one hundred thousand!"

Pang Tongyi looked at Guo Jia with contempt and said, "Guo Fengxiao, you are actually cheating on me!"

Guo Jia laughed and said, "Who asked you to calculate it so actively? Are you so anxious to want a mirror?"

Pang Tong said: "You are just a wife, and the rest are all female slaves. My family is different. There is a wife and a second wife I like too."

Sun Quan said: "Didn't your housekeeper just get an auction below? Little Phoenix, who else do you want to give?"

Guo Jia also asked curiously: "Yes, everyone only knows that you have two women jealous, why is there another one?"

Pang Tong said angrily: "I want to give my baby daughter a side. The little girl followed his mother to the palace last time, and when she came back, she told me to give her a mirror. It made me very upset."

Sun Quan treated it as if he didn't hear it, turned to Li Sheng and said, "Go and ask the auction house, how many gold coins will you get in total for auction?"

Li Sheng asked soon and said, "My king, two generals, got a total of 2.08 million gold coins at auction!"

Sun Quan smiled and said, "Good thing, this is making money so fast." He said, "Little Phoenix, you lost to Fengxiao this time!"

Pang Tong hurriedly said, "My king, I will take my daughter to the palace to find you!"

When Sun Quan heard this, he said, "Get out, your daughter is very naughty. Just let her harm your own family. Isn't it just a mirror?"

After Sun Quan finished speaking, he took out a small mirror from his arms, surrounded by a frame made of good red sandalwood, and handed it to Pang Tong casually, saying, "This is something I gave to my little niece. Don't look at this small one, it's more convenient."

Pang Tong took it and looked at it, looked at his face, and then smiled and said, "My king, this little mirror is good, just give me one too. It's very convenient to appreciate his handsome face."

Guo Jia also took it and looked at it. He liked it very much, and said, "My king, this mirror is more attractive to men. Can those large mirrors be cut into small ones?"

Sun Quan said: "It can't be cut. The layer of glass on these mirrors is very hard. Nothing can be cut to move. These small ones are born small, and the big ones are born large."

After hearing this, Guo Jia said, "Then my king must have given birth to a lot of this young man, right?"

After hearing Guo Jia's words, Sun Quan pulled out his legs and said as he walked, "You can go back and give birth to a try!"
