"Master Yuan Shao, can you explain to me what is going on here?"
After hearing Yan Liang's words, Li Yalin's expression suddenly turned cold. Although he is not an eye-catcher for money, the money is also earned for the people of Youzhou. If he can't get it, he will certainly feel that he is at a disadvantage.
What made him especially upset was why did he feel like he was being tricked
He was obviously the one who was teasing Yuan Shao all along, but now the result seems to be reversed, Yuan Shao dared to tease himself? What a joke!
"Dou Shi! I need an explanation!"
Seeing Li Yalin's cold expression, Yuan Shao suddenly became anxious. As a young lady of an aristocratic family, she certainly has her own pride. Looking at Li Yalin's eyes now, it is obvious that she is looking at a liar who deceives others. How can she accept
So naturally, Yuan Shao transferred her anger to Yan Liang, but she wanted to hear why she couldn't get 50,000 taels of gold.
"That... recently, in the world of demons and demons, we... have given out too much military pay and weapons, and... also spent a lot of money for disaster relief, plus your expenses, Mrs. Li Yu..."
Being watched closely by Li Yalin and Yuan Shao, Yan Liang said that she was under a lot of pressure, and even stuttered when she spoke, but fortunately, in the end, she expressed her meaning clearly.
It's just that when talking about Yuan Shao's expenses, her expression became very embarrassing. After all, the military salary and disaster relief, these expenses are all reasonable, but Yuan Shao's extravagant life style, even her Those who follow are a little helpless.
"This... are you blaming me?"
Obviously, Yuan Shao also understood what Yan Liang meant, but it was because of this that she was even more ashamed and angry.
What's wrong with your liking for luxury? So what if you spend a lot of money? Is this still my fault
"No no, Master Liyu is not wrong, but our expenses are indeed very high. Taking out fifty thousand taels of gold at once is really..."
Seeing that Yuan Shao was angry, Yan Liang quickly changed his words, but after all, she couldn't give 50,000 taels of gold to Li Yalin, so it was the last word. I was speechless.
"Master Yuan Shao, can you give me an explanation?"
Of course, Li Yalin could hear the conversation between Yuan Shao and Yan Liang clearly. He was very upset at first, but now, he couldn't help being happy.
It seems that Yuan Shao has encountered an economic crisis, such a great opportunity, if he does not take advantage of it. Isn't it too wasteful
Although he was happy in his heart, on the surface, he still had to make an expression that I was very angry, but Yuan Shao couldn't let Yuan Shao see the flaws.
"I... isn't it just fifty thousand taels of gold! I... I'll get it for you when I get back!"
Being so persecuted by Li Yalin, Yuan Shao suddenly felt that he could not step down. What's more, in Yuan Shao's view, Li Yalin was questioning her!
What is that look in his eyes? Miss Ben is Yuan Benchu of four families and three men! Do you think Miss Ben is short of money
"Since Mr. Yuan Shao said so. Then I will wait for the good news."
Seeing Yuan Shao's aggressive appearance, Li Yalin felt more and more amused in his heart. He stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation to Yuan Shao, which immediately made Yuan Shao feel even more dissatisfied.
"Hmph! Come back with me!"
Yuan Shao, who couldn't get off the stage, waved his hand and returned to Yizhou City with his troops, but after returning to the city, she became even more depressed.
After investigating for a while, she found that what Yan Liang said was not wrong at all. The available funds in his hands are only 20,000 gold, which is too little, right
"How can this be?"
Yuan Shao couldn't believe that he had such a shortage of funds on his books, and immediately turned his angry eyes to Yan Liang and Wen Chou.
"How is this impossible? Master Li Yu, here is the list of our family's expenses over the years. It's all on it. Dou Shi and I have never done anything to enrich ourselves."
Being stared at by Yuan Shao, Wen Chou immediately handed over a bill to Yuan Shao, which recorded all the expenses of Yuan Shao's mansion in detail, and after Yuan Shao read the bill, his face turned black and red for a while.
Everything recorded on the bill was correct, all the funds from the government were recorded on it, and the settlement was also very detailed. There were about 200,000 copper coins left, which was 20,000 taels of gold.
If it wasn't for this incident, Yuan Shao didn't even know that he had encountered a financial crisis and was on the verge of bankruptcy, and he only had 20,000 taels of gold left, so what could he do
"There's only so little money left, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
After all, it was Yuan Shao's own fault, and she couldn't vent her anger on Yan Liang and Wen Chou, but she didn't have that much money to return to Li Yalin at all, so there must be some complaints.
"I didn't expect him to be able to succeed." Yan Liang said helplessly. She didn't expect that, after all, ordinary people dare not approach such a dangerous place like Hu Xiao Slope. back.
Yan Liang treated Li Yalin as one of those ordinary people who entered Huxiao Slope, and never thought that he would come out alive, which led to the current embarrassment.
"Then what should we do?"
At this time, it is simply impossible to find out who is right and who is wrong. Of course, the current plan is to find a solution.
"Otherwise we owe it first? Will we pay it back when we have money in the future?"
As a follower, the responsibility is naturally to share the worries of the lord, so at the first time, Wen Chou thought of a good way.
It is a good way to say it, but in fact it is the same as not saying it. Anyone who owes money and does not pay it back can say this, but the question is, can it be done
What a proud person Yuan Shao is, if word of her failure to pay back the money she owes gets out, wouldn't she be ashamed to death? How embarrassing! I can't afford to lose that person!
Especially thinking of Li Yalin's eyes just now, Yuan Shao couldn't agree more!
"No! Another way!"
"In this case, we might as well borrow money and plug this hole first." After Yuan Shao vetoed Wen Chou's method, Yan Liang followed up and gave his own answer.
And this idea, although not much better than Wen Chou, at least Yuan Shao can accept it.
"Borrowing money... Who do we borrow from?" In order to be able to pay the remuneration, Yuan Shao can accept more or less. There is no other way.
Borrow money, just borrow money, but who do you borrow from
"How about... Master Yuan Shu?" Yan Liang first made a suggestion.
"No! No! No! If I borrow money from that little girl, I will be ridiculed to death, and just that little girl, maybe she can come up with the money!"
As soon as he heard about Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao shook his head like a rattle, ten thousand people disagreed.
Yuan Shu is Yuan Shao's cousin, so it is also a family, but Yuan Shao is a descendant, Yuan Shu is a concubine, in front of Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao has always refused to lose face, at least borrowing money from Yuan Shu, she is definitely not able to do it of.
What's more, as the prefect of a state, Yuan Shu's governance ability is really bad. The land she governs is almost at the pace of people's livelihood. What money can I lend to Yuan Shao
If Yuan Shao is still just a joker, but can manage the territory under his control, then Yuan Shu can be said to be completely hopeless. Let her become the prefect, which is completely a difficulty for the common people.
"In that case... why don't we go to Cao Cao?"
Seeing that Yuan Shao refused to borrow money from Yuan Shu, Wen Chou also expressed his thoughts. After all, Yuan Shao didn't have many friends. He could count all the friends he could think of with one hand, and those who could borrow money were only so-so at best. Just a few.
If Yuan Shu can't do it, then only Cao Cao is left.
"Cao Cao? That's even worse!"
Although Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were childhood sweethearts, they never got along with each other. When they met, they liked to be sarcastic. It was more difficult for Yuan Shao to borrow money from Cao Cao.
"If this doesn't work, then I can only think of the last solution, which is to pay off the debt."
Seeing that the one on the left and the one on the right were not good enough for Yuan Shao, both Yan Liang and Wen Chou felt very embarrassed. In the end, Wen Chou simply broke the pot and came up with a bad idea.
"Meat...meat compensation?" Yuan Shao was taken aback by Wen Chou's words. Does the meat compensation mean that men and women do such shameful things as they read in the book
This... this is also okay
"Report to my lord! Cao Cao brought someone to see him!"
Does this mean that Cao Cao is coming? Not long after Yuan Shao mentioned Cao Cao, someone from below reported that it was Cao Cao's visit, which immediately made Yuan Shao look puzzled.
"Cao Cao? What is she doing here?"
Because they have always looked down upon each other, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao rarely communicated. Of course, it was very difficult for Yuan Shao to understand that Cao Cao was so close.
"God knows." Wen Chou and Yan Liang looked at each other and shook their heads, seeing how incompetent the two followers were, this immediately made Yuan Shao sigh.
"I knew I couldn't count on you, forget it, go and see what that guy is going to do!"
Although I don't understand, but everyone is here, Yuan Shao can't lose his limelight. How to pay Li Yalin can only be put aside for the time being. Now, she has to face Cao Cao with all her strength!
After a while, Yuan Shao appeared in the front hall, and at this time, Cao Cao was sitting on a chair in the front hall drinking tea with his subordinates.
I saw Cao Cao, with a delicate and beautiful appearance, with golden hair tied into double spiral ponytails, and a terrifying skull on the top. Although it looks scary, it actually has a different charm.
It can be said that Cao Cao can be said to be a perfect beauty in terms of appearance only, but unfortunately, her figure is a little short, and her breasts are also a bit sad.
So, no one is perfect these days, even Cao Cao has flaws. (… )
