Chapter 778. Be Lu Buwei!

"Brother-in-law, our Xiao Cao is back!"

Chang'an, the Prime Minister's Mansion in Andingfang, and the office of the Dachang Office, had not opened, a loud voice came in from outside the door. Then, his face was full of red light, and the third young master of the Great Wei walked in from outside the door with pride. Then he saw someone coming up with excitement and enthusiasm.

Feeling good about myself, Cao Zhang smiled and waved his face: "I have only been walking for half a year, my brother-in-law doesn't have to miss me so much..., miss me..."

The voice was awkward because Wang Hou didn't look at him at all, and he passed by this guy, but he suddenly hugged Changle, who was one step behind, in his arms.

"Stupid girl! How dare you run away secretly! You don't say hello to your father. Oh, I miss me so much!"

Wang Hou has now fully realized the mentality of being a father-in-law in later generations. He finally raised pots of flowers, watered, fertilized, loosened the soil, and raised and cared for her beautifully, but at any time, a guy named son-in-law took away the flowers and pots, and he couldn't chase them. Now, looking at Changle, he obviously felt this.

The little head that was turned by Wang Hou was confused. Changle patted his shoulder helplessly: "Don't turn, dad! I'm dizzy!"

"Say hello to you, can you let me go?"

"It's definitely not! Is the battlefield where you, a girl, go to every family? You are eyeless, let your dad see if you are injured, wow! Why are there scars on your face? Who did it? Your dad, I'll take revenge on him and destroy his whole family!"

"No need, Dad, I have killed him with my own hands! If I don't talk about this, why can't I get on the battlefield? My mother could have followed you grandpa and dad, and you ran around? Why?"

"Your mother is a tomboy, can you compare with her!"

Listening to the father and daughter whispering here, Cao Zhang's face became darker and darker, and in the end he could not help but roared.

"Brother-in-law! Xiao Zhang is back! Take a look!"

But after turning his head, Wang Hou rolled his eyes with contempt.

"Who are you?"

…………

To be honest, if he could go back, Wang Hou really wanted to put Cao Zhang back to Yecheng and let the old scumbag take him with him. He said that he would not be too serious when watching the fun, and that he was right! He finally re-established a good relationship with Cao Pi, the heir of Cao Wei, and was ruined by Cao Cao casually.

Moreover, Wang Hou really doesn't remember how long Mr. Cao can live! But when he met for the last few times, Cao Cao was sure to get old! At his age, it was extremely dangerous to try to replace the crown prince. If he didn't do it well, it would likely lead to a full-scale civil war in the empire. Cao Pi could not be willing to hand over the rights of the crown prince. Moreover, over the years, his power in the Central Plains has been formed, and he can lick him without any limit, use any means to store and eliminate dissidents. The Central Plains family has been bribed by him on a considerable scale.

For example, the Sima family of Hedong, where Sima Yi came from!

Cao Cao's governance is to select talents but not to be aware of his origin, but Cao Pi is now the spokesperson of a large family. In the past two years, the number of children from aristocratic families has been in high positions. Now Cao Cao wants to change his course and kick Cao Pi down. What can the aristocratic family do?

Wang Hou was very suspicious that even Cao Cao was unable to move towards the situation a few years before his death, especially after Cao Pi promised so many benefits, he had not yet received the fulfillment of the Central Plains family.

This is equivalent to directly placing Cao Zhang and Wang Hou behind him on the opposite side of most Central Plains families.

Of course, the benefits are not lacking, just like the sentence at the end of the first paragraph of Jia Xu's secret letter to himself.

You should be Lu Buwei!

Lu Buwei was also a businessman. After seeing Ying Yiren, he felt that strange goods were resident. He helped Ying Yiren to obtain the position of Prince of Qin. He was also a Shangjun and was extremely powerful. He had decades of power in the Qin Dynasty. Now Wang Hou is also a businessman, and he is an official and businessman. He is much more powerful than Lu Buwei. Cao Zhang is the down-and-out prince. If he could support him as the throne of King of Wei, or even replace the Han Dynasty with Wei and become the emperor, the political benefits that Wang Hou gained were naturally much greater than that of Lu Buwei.

However, compared with Lu Buwei, Wang Hou did not have that great addiction to power and ambition. Now he is enough for this Guanzhong major business. Compared with the swords and shadows of fighting for the throne, he would rather find a corner to squat and live comfortably in a small stall.

Unfortunately, Cao Zhang was the same, and the situation was not changed by his will. Cao Cao made a move, so he could only continue to follow the moves.

Fortunately, among the many chaos brought by Cao Zhang, he was trying his best to pacify the Western Regions! The only thing he catered to the needs of the Guanzhong Daxingtai, he took away the annoying Sima Yi again.

After reminiscing with his baby daughter for a long time, Changle, whose little face was pinched red by Wang Hou, ran out of the house like a life-long escape, but he put Cao Zhang in the protagonist position again.

Sitting on the other side of the desk, this guy was dancing with excitement, not like a clan's son who stepped into the throne with two feet to fight for fame and fortune.

"Brother-in-law, you have to thank me this time. Do you know how many people I, Cao Ziwen, brought back from Guandong this time? One hundred thousand! One hundred thousand!!!"

"I scored 30% of my share in Yangshan Gold Mine! I also wanted 20% of my share in Jingshan Iron Mine! These are all middle-aged laborers! My brother-in-law and brother-in-law have to settle the score clearly! You must not bargain with me!"

It was indeed enough to be proud of Cao Zhang! Cao Cao was generous this time. The 50,000 rebels surrendered in Wancheng and the 50,000 people rebelled in Luhun and other places were all brought to Guanxi under the name of exile and serving as a border! Wang Hou was in Guanxi, and the troubles were either that there was not much land or that the population was insufficient.

During the reign of Emperor Ming of Wei, the number of registered people in the imperial court was 13 million. However, in fact, nearly twice the population was not in the household registration booklet, including ethnic minorities who did not enter the Han people and the slaves of various aristocratic families. According to later generations, the population of Cao Wei was about 20 to 25 million.

Now Wang Hou's territory even exceeds that of the Central Plains. Even if there are naturalized "Han people" such as Qiang people, Xianbei people, Wuhuan people, Goguryeo people and Fuyu people, in fact, his population is only about three million, which is one-tenth of the Central Plains.

More than 100,000 young and strong people are really a gift! It is enough for Wang Hou to dig out the iron ore and gold mine hidden in the mountains on Longshang!

However, when Cao Zhang was still immersed in the population exchange, and then went to Chang'an to spend money, and bet on horseback to reward the anchor with a prodigal life, Wang Hou shook his head solemnly.

"These are all trivial matters. After you go back later, you will be dismissed immediately and resigned from the position of general of the Chang'an Corps!"

"No! Brother-in-law, I won the battle! Why did I get rid of my position when I come back?"

Immediately, I was stunned and lined up the tables, Master Cao San slapped the table in anger and jumped up.

Without answering his dissatisfaction, Wang Hou stared at his handsome and handsome old face more seriously and asked with an extremely serious look.

"Ziwen, do you want to be the King of Wei?"
