The source of brown sugar is obviously much more stable than that of raw honey wine.

Because the people of Shu can sell woolen materials and mead as much as they want. Even if they don't sell, they have no right to say anything.

Brown sugar is different. How much raw sugar you give will equal how much brown sugar you give back in proportion.

 Unless Xinghanhui dares to smash his own sign that he has built for so many years.

"What's more, as long as the school affairs office is involved in this matter, even if the Shu people want to break the agreement, it depends on whether they dare to ignore the alliance between the two countries."

“After all, we represent His Majesty! Isn’t it much more reliable than relying solely on the friendship between the Zhang family and Feng Wenhe?”

When Lu Yi and others heard this, they immediately thought it was wonderful.

 Yu Gong, this move not only opened up a source of money for His Majesty, but also provided an additional means to suppress the noble family.

 For personal reasons, the huge profits from brown sugar... ugh!

“Our current plan is to test His Majesty’s heart and see if the Zhang family can be used. Secondly, to see who can be sent to Liangzhou to convince Feng Wenhe.”

"Don't worry about the Zhang family's affairs!" Lu Yi got the solution and immediately became more confident, "Your Majesty is so generous, if you don't want to use the Zhang family, why would you send Zhang Bai to Liangzhou as a deputy envoy?"

Of course it must be used, but His Majesty will have discretion on how to use it.

　I can’t say, will the school government really be able to squeeze the Zhang family out of the brown sugar channel in the future and enjoy the benefits exclusively?

"This is the only second one," Lu Yi glanced at everyone, "but I really need to think about it carefully."

 I must not leave His Majesty's side, otherwise, if Li Heng comes again, no one will be able to control the overall situation, and everyone will not know how they died.

 The remaining candidates...

Lu Yi's eyes glanced back and forth between Qin Bo and Qian Qin.

Qin Bo knew what he meant and immediately raised his hands and said:

“A certain person is willing to go to Liangzhou, but...”

He hesitated for a moment, "Feng Wenhe has always been known as a clever talker, but I am clumsy with my tongue. I'm afraid I won't be able to convince him..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent again.

Yeah, I heard that Zhang He and Cao Zhen were given the reputation of climbing mountains and wading in rivers by him, and then they were pissed to death.

Although I don’t know whether it is true or not, there are rumors that this man’s tongue is more powerful than his sword. It is better to take it seriously than to take it lightly.

 Lu Yi suddenly gritted his teeth:

"How can you make more money with your words than with money? People in Shu sell all kinds of things, don't they just do it for the word "profit"?"

“If we can give Feng Wenhe enough benefits, how can we be afraid that he won’t agree?”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

 Qin Bo swallowed a sip of saliva. He felt a little regretful: I shouldn't have agreed to go to Liangzhou...

But Lu Yi glanced at everyone with his cold eyes:

“Your Majesty already has doubts about the school affairs office, so will the people behind Li Heng just stop here?”

"How many people have we offended by what we have done over the years? Is there any way out? If we don't try our best now, we will be left with no body intact by then!"

Qian Qin was also a little trembling:

“Lü Zhongshu, if we give too many benefits to the people of Shu, and your Majesty finds out about it in the future, I’m afraid we will also be left without a whole body!”

Lu Yi sneered and said sadly:

“Have you all forgotten what you started from? As long as this can be accomplished, Your Majesty will definitely value the school affairs office more than before.”

“Even if it is re-explained in the future, are we still afraid that no one will bear the consequences of this?”

 Seeing that everyone still looked frightened, Lu Yi was a little impatient:

"What are you afraid of? When we go to Liangzhou to negotiate with the Shu people, isn't it up to His Majesty to make the final decision? As long as His Majesty approves, what are you afraid of?"

Lu Yi finally convinced everyone through threats and intimidation.

Although everyone in the school affairs office is short-sighted and villainous, they also know that if the school affairs office cannot survive this time, then they will not be able to gain any favor.

On the other hand, if Feng Wenhe can really agree to this matter, not to mention the school affairs office will be further in His Majesty's mind.

 Just the added benefits of brown sugar are enough for them to take the gamble.

After the discussion was over, Lu Yi quickly looked for an opportunity and went to see Sun Quan. He only said that over the years, Wu and Shu had more and more material exchanges, and there were countless merchant affairs.

 I heard that the Shu people set up Yishi in Yong'an two years ago to specifically manage transactions with Dawu, but Dawu did not have a corresponding office.

 How about taking advantage of this opportunity to trade horses with the Shu people and discuss with the Shu people to jointly establish easy market channels to facilitate management.

As soon as Sun Quan heard this, he immediately understood what Lu Yi meant.

He couldn't help but be overjoyed: Others only thought that Lu Yi was a villain, but they didn't know how much profit the school office had received for me over the years.

Thinking of this, most of his worries about Lu Yi these days were instantly eliminated.

Lv Yi has been by Sun Quan’s side for a long time, so how could he not understand what Sun Quan was thinking?

So he struck while the iron was hot and hurriedly revealed the plan discussed in the secret room.

Of course, how to persuade Feng Wenhe was not mentioned at all.

 Suffice it to say that if this matter can be accomplished, it will not only create a source of money and food, but also take the opportunity to suppress the aristocratic family.

This sentence simply touched the deepest part of Sun Quan’s heart!

Back then I asked you to open up wasteland and cultivate fields, but you didn't know that you kept doing it, but in the end you traded it with the Shu people for brown sugar.

 Having received so many bonuses every year for so many years, are you enjoying it?

 Have you forgotten that there is an emperor like yourself above you?

 Laozi led his troops to the front lines to fight every year.

 Which of the food and clothing used by the soldiers does not require money or grain?

open!

 Must be opened!

 Open this easy market and collect taxes uniformly!

But this matter requires the cooperation of the Shu people, so we still have to send someone to talk to the Shu people.

Sun Quan himself knew that none of the families who could trade these supplies with the Shu people were small families.

 If it is implemented publicly, I am afraid it will encounter a lot of resistance.

In addition, Lu Yi raised the matter, so he still handed it over to the school affairs office.

Lu Yi almost laughed out loud after getting Sun Quan's permission.

So the envoy who went to Liangzhou for the second time suddenly found that there were more people from the school affairs office in the envoy without receiving any notice.
