The Three Kingdoms began with self-reliance as king

Chapter 284 My lord, please think twice

Seeing that everyone was skeptical, Liu Yi smiled and said:
"You still don't understand the psychology of these wealthy families!
They don't care about the money, what they care about is face.

Ordinary people can't afford it, but it can show their status and make them feel superior.

The rich and powerful who are willing to buy don't care about the money at all. "

What is a wealthy family?

It's just that when buying things, I always only buy the most expensive and not the best!
The more ordinary people can't afford it, the more envious they are, the more they can reflect their status and power.

For this kind of novelty, Liu Yi believes that they will definitely buy it out of curiosity!

Once a few aristocratic families try to buy it first, more and more aristocratic families will come to buy it under their leadership...

Thus there is a virtuous circle!
Liu Yi looked at Dian Wei and the others with a faint sigh and said:

"After all, poverty limits your imagination!"

Is it poverty that limits our imagination?
Everyone was stunned when they heard the words.

He wanted to refute but felt that what Liu Yi said seemed quite reasonable.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Liu Yi continued to speak to Zhang Ling:

"Except for the special white granulated sugar, the rest of the white sugar is based on your three levels.

That is, ordinary white sugar, refined white sugar, and extreme white sugar.

Among them, ordinary white sugar is priced at the same price per catty, refined white sugar is priced at the same price per catty, and premium white sugar is priced at the same price per catty. "

"Here!"

Hearing this, Zhang Ling immediately began to calculate in his heart.

The usual money is one thousand dollars.

About 600 catties of grain can be purchased.

Based on the calculation that [-] catties are crude ordinary white sugar, if you sell all of them, you can earn at least [-] catties.

Converted into grain, it is 800 million catties, and at 120 catties per stone, it is 15 stones of grain!
Excluding a small half as various costs, the net profit is about [-] shi of grain.

In fact, according to the pricing given by Liu Yi, the money earned after selling all of them far exceeds this amount.

More importantly, they have established several sugar factories in Jiaozhou, with sufficient supply.

In the follow-up, we only need to send people to transport the white sugar from Jiaozhou back, and sell it and exchange it for grain.

Feeding tens of thousands of troops is no longer a problem.

Thinking of the wealth that can be gathered by selling white sugar, Zhang Ling is full of energy.

Thinking that everything in Ngai Hing City is on the right track, and my current identity has been completely wiped out.

Liu Yi felt it was time to go out and walk around.

It is rare to come to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

He has been in Yixing City for more than a year, and if he stays any longer, he will almost become moldy.

He has absorbed all the rebel forces in the Taihang Mountains.

Moreover, Gongsun Qi, Guo Jia, Zhou Cang and the others have achieved phased victories in Liangzhou.

Everything is being rolled out according to the prior strategic deployment.

In Jiaozhou, Liao Hua led the army to take root and develop, and it will be a matter of time before it grows stronger.

Now is the time for him to make a move!

Liu Yi's original idea was to take Dian Wei and Zhao Yun to Luoyang, relying on the army card of the five thousand Qin army in his hand.

Call them out at night, capture Luoyang and take the emperor to make the princes.

Then imitate Dong Zhuo to send troops out of the city at night and enter the city during the day, and at the same time let Gongsun Qi and the others lead the troops.

Take full control of Luoyang"

But now he felt that he didn't need to risk the disgrace of the world and let the whole world point their finger at him.

He intends to take his time and transition in a gentler way.

First go to Luoyang to gain fame.

First steal dozens of Tang poems and Song lyrics, and you can also do things like nine-nine multiplication tables.

Just let the world know he's talented.

Then bribe Zhang Rang, take the first step to go to Yizhou Mu or Hanzhong prefect, and develop power in a low-key manner.

By the way, I will meet Cai Zhaoji and Diao Chan, and I will travel through a journey.

There is also Liu Hong's only daughter recorded in "Book of the Later Han Dynasty", Princess Wannian, who is about 16 years old now.

Time to find a way to get it!

The title of son-in-law cannot be easily let go.

……

Countless thoughts were flying in Liu Yi's mind.

He looked at the people around him solemnly and said:

"Everyone! I decided to go to Luoyang!"

Everyone looked at Liu Yi with surprise when they heard the words, not knowing why he had such an idea suddenly.

Luoyang is at the foot of the emperor. Although he was recruited by the court, his identity is still sensitive.

No one can guarantee whether the imperial court will have bad thoughts after seeing the troops he sent so bravely.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and then they all began to persuade:
"Eldest senior brother, this matter must not be allowed! The imperial court previously regarded you as a thorn in the side, so if you go to Luoyang, it will be like a sheep in the mouth of a tiger!"

"We are all willing to go on behalf of the lord, please think twice, lord!"

"My lord, please think twice..."

Everyone present unanimously rejected Liu Yi's dangerous idea.

They were very curious about what was going on in Liu Yi's head every day.

Seeing how everyone cared about him, Liu Yi was moved.

Confidently said:

"I am most afraid of death, since I decided to go to Luoyang, I naturally have to consider various consequences.

Without absolute certainty, I will not joke about my own life.

So it's settled! "

"Big Brother!"

"Lord!"

"My lord..."

Everyone was secretly anxious.

No matter what Liu Yi said, in their opinion, this matter was always too risky.

Once there is any error, the consequences will be unimaginable.

They all felt that Liu Yi shouldn't be so willful!
"I've made up my mind, you don't need to say more!"

It is now March of 186.

In two or three years, the world will change.

Dong Zhuo controlled the government, and the princes from all walks of life raised troops against Dong and supported their own self-respect.

There is not much time left for him.

He must quickly accumulate wealth, strengthen his own strength, and complete various strategic deployments before the troubled times come.

Only then will we be able to have enough capital to end the troubled times.

"My lord, since you have made up your mind, let me accompany you!"

As Liu Yi's personal bodyguard, Dian Wei immediately stated that he would accompany Liu Yi to Luoyang.

He is not the kind of person who talks too much. Apart from the master-servant relationship with Liu Yi, he is more of a teacher and friend relationship.

Regardless of whether it is a mountain of swords or a sea of ​​fire, or a dragon's pool or a tiger's lair, he is willing to go for Liu Yi.

Everyone also expressed their willingness to go with Liu Yi.

Liu Yi rejected the request of Zhang Mancheng, Guan Hai and others.

He only agreed to take Dian Wei and Zhao Yun with him.

One is because they have a deep understanding of their two skills, and the goal of bringing too many people is too big.

The second is that he is not in Yixing City, and Zhang Mancheng and the others are needed to stay and preside over the overall situation.

Everyone heard the words and had to give up.

After all, they all know the skills of Dian Wei and Zhao Yun.

They are all top-level military generals.

With the two of them guarding Liu Yi, Liu Yi can't be hurt by idlers, and his personal safety is more secure.

Therefore, all the people are a little relieved, and no longer persuade Liu Yi to go to Luoyang.

In the next few days, Liu Yi entrusted Zhang Mancheng with all matters after he left, and asked Guan Hai, Tian Yu, Xia Houlan and others to assist him.

After everything was arranged properly, he, Dian Wei and Zhao Yun followed the troops transporting sugar to Luoyang.

And Zhang Ling had set off for Luoyang a few days ago to take care of everything.

There are many aristocratic families in Luoyang.

Only through Zhang Rang and Liu Hong's support can they gain a better foothold.
