Chapter 1186 The bitter Ma Chao

A butterfly flaps its wings in the western Pacific Ocean, causing a storm in the eastern Pacific Ocean.

In the past few years, Ma Chao, a butterfly, has been tossed around, causing chaos in the originally orderly Three Kingdoms era. In addition to Liu Zhang in Yizhou, who is still running safely on the established track, the situation of almost all the giants of the Three Kingdoms has changed.

Nowadays, there has been no war between the two Yuan enemies, the allied countries and the evil axis countries in the world. In the ordinary and unusual year of Xingping five years, these two princes who were once worthy of the Three Kingdoms and were uprooted by the two young and powerful rising forces in the south and north. Cao Cao also made history in this year Similar achievements, but in the end, he hated the Yellow River, and his strength was greatly weakened; and although Liu Bei, who struggled hard in Runan, got an opportunity never seen in history, he did not know whether it was a blessing or a curse...

The Ma family, which was in charge of Ma Chao, made remarkable achievements on the north bank of the Yellow River and eventually became the most powerful strategic force in the Han Dynasty.

In this case, history is no longer credible, so Ma Chao has rarely thought about what happened today in history and what will happen tomorrow. What he is doing now is to complete everything he can do without conflicting with Cao Cao's promise to escape from Jizhou, combined with the actual situation of the Ma family.

For himself, for Cai Yan, Ma Qiu and the whole Ma family, and for Li Shu all over the world.

After getting his inner responsibility from Cai Yan and the vague world plan from Sima Yi, Ma Chao gave up his intention to try government affairs three days later. At the first time, he rushed to the Guanzhong Plain 800 miles away from Chang'an. Now that the golden autumn has passed, the cool breeze has sent a cool breeze, and the crops in the fields have been harvested cleanly. God has taken care of it. This year is another bumper harvest. Because of the large-scale promotion of new high-yielding crops and the measures of the Ma family's new policy to divide people's land, the harvest of the whole Guanzhong Plain is still considerable. In addition, the use of rollovers, Quyuan ploughs and building vehicles, the improvement of water conservancy, and the popularization of scientific planting methods have effectively promoted agricultural production.

According to the reports sent by the states and counties, the grain from the three grain-producing areas of Guanzhong, Hanzhong and Nanyang has been collected, and the mu of children has reached the highest year of the Han Dynasty. Although there were slain Xiongnu soldiers in the grain harvest season in Kanto, the comprehensive grain income of the three places did surprise all officials of the Ma family.

It's a pity that these grains are still far from living under the rule of the Ma family. This made Ma Chao frown a little more - although this kind of thing was expected, he couldn't let go of hearing Meng Da say such a huge gap with his own ears.

Since self-sufficiency is no longer possible, it can only be imported. If you want to buy grain, you have to find a way to buy all the grain around you and find out where there is surplus grain in the harvest. What? The turbulent states of Han Dynasty have no surplus food, so what about Yizhou and Jingzhou? These two families have been very peaceful this year. No matter what method you use, you must get the surplus food from these two states, save it, and have food in your hand, so that you won't panic.

In addition to buying grain, you also have to grow grain. You can't ignore the future development and growth after this year. Fortunately, although Meng Da, the general manager of the Ma family, roared repeatedly, he gritted his teeth against the strong pressure of the military, so that officials in various counties all over the country left enough seeds to sow next year. However, the central government here can only find a way to cultivate cattle and agricultural tools.

Faced with this situation, it is also difficult for Ma Chao, a clever woman, to cook without rice. Although he pointed out in his statement that the most important thing for the Ma family at present is food production, both military and civilian officials must go to the field to do a good job in autumn sowing and reclaiming new fields in winter. For this reason, he also put up a lot of slogans, to return to the barn and grab food from the rat's mouth... Even in the past two days, he took the lead in working in the field, but all this was nothing more than ideological mobilization, and there was no in-depth and feasible solution to this urgent problem.

Because, in the final analysis, the Ma family has no money - the golden beast of war has swallowed up all the old money accumulated by the Ma family in three years in only half a year. What's more, the Ma family has always been a high-income, high-consumption family since its rise.

Therefore, in the past two days, what Ma Chao did not dare to see when he returned home was Liu Yue and Fu Shou. What he didn't want to see at the beginning of the hall were Meng Da, Han Feng, Li Zihao, Zhang Yupan and Guan Shanyue, the five members of the Ma family. Meng Da looked at the red and bright deficit of the Ma family's finances, and he was a little confused; Han Feng was also similar, just like a shrew. Ma Chao cried and was poor; Zhang Yupan was no longer like a businessman, pouring all the things that could be turned upside down. Seeing that Ma Chao's eyes were shining, he couldn't wait to put Ma Chao into the brothel as a male actor; and Guan Shanyue took at least 50 guards when he went out during this period, afraid that those mercenaries from foreign lands would kill him with a knife.

The most deadly is Li Zihao from Jinyang, Bingzhou, who suffered a disaster because he was close to the beacon area. In his own words, that is, 'Since I followed the Ma family, Lao Li has never enjoyed a blessing!'

Ma Chao, the heavy cavalry general, is now embarrassed to gasp when he sees Li Zihao, a small household member. In fact, when they attacked the area north of the Yellow River, they did treat the Li family like a hen that laid golden eggs. Every time they recovered some financial resources, the Ma family brazenly came to cut it three times. As a result, the Li family almost died... As a result, Li Zihao has now moved his luggage and plans to live in Chang'an to eat Ma Chao for the rest of his life.

It is not the biggest headache to appease the backyard and his officials. The most difficult thing that makes Ma Chao sleep at night is that he can't buy grain and winter farming tools. Without money, all the people of the Ma family can only tighten their belts for the Spring Festival this year. Without money, they can't integrate the army, implement the new policy, and deepen the adjustment. The transformation of organizational structure and style cannot carry out a unified strategy outline in the next few years...

Generally speaking, without money, the recovery and development of the Ma family will take at least two years to lag behind; and this problem makes Ma Chao deeply realize a truth that exists in both previous life and ancient times and remains unchanged: money is a bastard, and you really can't play without money!

This night, Ma Chao shed tears and sweated to repay Liu Yue's body. After the first rest of the rain, Ma Chao gently moved away the white lotus-like jade arm pink legs on his body and kissed Liu Yue's tidal cheeks with love, and then showed the look of Ai Ai: "Yueer, you see... Our deal Isn't it? ......”

Liu Yue turned over gently, looked at Ma Chao affectionately, stroked Ma Chao's handsome face seductively, and smiled in a hoarse and charming tone, "Husband, does it have to be like this between us? What do you think my concubine is?"

"Yeer, you can't do this. We have something to say first, pay for the goods with one hand and deliver the goods with the other..." Ma Chao was so aggrieved that he was about to cry.

"Well, I'm not a heartless person..."

Ma Chao was overjoyed when he heard this, but after seeing Liu Yue grope out only two copper coins from the head of the bed, Ma Chao's face became like a bitter gourd: "Yeer, you won't tell me that this is all your property, will you?"

"It's true," Liu Yue smiled and nodded seriously and sincerely: "My husband, you are actually very capable. You can squeeze a dignified Han princess to such an embarrassing place. This little white face is unparalleled in the world..."

"Well, I know..." Ma Chao took the two penny with tears and deeply felt the sadness of a man's special profession in another time and space: "I will do my best in the future!"

This night, one side sneered and was satisfied; the other side turned around thousands of times and couldn't shed tears... It was not until the Tianming bodyguard came to report that Ma Chao became as excited as chicken blood and no longer thought about sacrificing his appearance to sell money to the lady tonight.

What the bodyguard said was: Cao Tai, the nephew of Han Sikong, came to Chang'an to negotiate the aftermath!
