Cao Cao thought to himself, I have personally conquered Huainan, what local specialties have I not tasted, let alone this walnut.
However, since his son-in-law was kind, Cao Cao accepted it happily.
Xi Zhicai's gaze inadvertently glanced at the item in Su Yi's hand, but his eyes could not help but tremble.
"Old Master, there's something wrong with this thing.”
He reminded her in a low voice.
Cao Cao was reminded by him and inadvertently glanced at him.
Suddenly.
Cao Cao's body trembled, and his eyes narrowed as he grabbed the Imperial Jade Seal.
"Not good, I actually forgot to put this thing away!”
Su Yi realized that something was wrong and could not help but frown slightly.
However, on second thought, the person sitting in front of him was not an outsider, but his father-in-law. The two families were on the same boat, so there was no harm in letting him know.
"Son-in-law, this, this…"
Cao Cao raised the Imperial Jade Seal and looked at Su Yi with excitement and surprise.
"Father-in-law, you can see it. That's right. This is the heirloom seal."”
Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai's bodies shook as they took in a breath of cold air.
The Imperial Jade Seal was the most precious treasure in the world.
Su Yi actually used it to smash walnuts!
Since ancient times, he was the first person who dared to do so.
"This jade seal was originally in Yuan Shu's hands. I heard that it disappeared after Shouchun City was captured. Why is it in your hands?”
Cao Cao calmed himself down and asked in confusion.
"If I say that I picked it up, will father-in-law believe me?”
Su Yi asked seriously.
"Picked it up?"
Cao Cao was stunned. He immediately frowned and said," This is the heirloom seal, not a stone. How can you pick it up just like that? Don't joke around!"”
Su Yi could not continue to brush it off, so he could only make up a lie. He said that he had encountered a carriage of Yuan Shu's army near Xiacai City and found this jade seal on a dead Yuan Jun.
Xiacai City was not far from Shouchun, and it was also the Yuan army's soldiers. Su Yi's lie did not make Cao Cao suspicious.
"I was worried that the jade seal was missing, but I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of my son-in-law and be delivered to me. My good son-in-law is really the dragon son-in-law of Cao Cao!”
Cao Cao looked at the jade seal in his hand and secretly sighed with joy.
At this moment.
However, Su Yi took back the jade seal from his hand and smashed another walnut.
Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai's eyes widened as they watched with their mouths agape.
However, Su Yi acted as if no one was around. After eating, he picked it up and wanted to smash it again.
"This is the Imperial Jade Seal. You actually used it to smash walnuts. You, you-"
Cao Cao grabbed it and carefully checked if it was damaged. His face was filled with heartache.
Su Yi did not think much of it and said,"This Imperial Jade Seal is useful to those dukes, but to me, it's just a walnut."”
Cao Cao was stunned and speechless.
After a while.
Cao Cao calmed down and smiled,""Nephew, since you don't want it, you can give this heirloom seal to that Duke Cao.”
"Please don't!"
Su Yi refused on the spot,"That Cao Mengde will definitely be rewarded for his meritorious service. If I give this Imperial Jade Seal to him, what if he insists on giving me an official position? Father-in-law, you know that I just want to live in seclusion in the countryside, earn some money, and be a rich man."”
Cao Cao suddenly understood and didn't know what to do.
Xi Zhicai rolled his eyes and said,"Son-in-law, in that case, why don't you give this Imperial Jade Seal to our master? Our master has his own ways to offer this item to Cao Gong in exchange for unexpected benefits.”
"That's right, son-in-law. Give me this Imperial Jade Seal.”
Cao Cao understood and agreed.
Su Yi looked at the master and servant and could not help but smile.
This father-in-law of his was trying to borrow flowers to present to Buddha again.
"The old master has friends in the government. If I give this Imperial Seal to his friend, his friend will go to Cao Cao and ask for credit. He will definitely be promoted and rewarded.”
"Yes, he's really good at scheming. He wants to get something out of me without anything.”
Su Yi thought of something and said straightforwardly,"Father-in-law, since you want this heirloom seal, then I'll sell it to you. We're family.”
When Cao Cao heard this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought to himself, This kid is really smart, even his father-in-law won't let him take advantage of me.
Moreover, he was asking for an exorbitant sum of 50 million yuan.
"I say, son-in-law, we're family. You still want to take my money?”
Cao Cao pretended to complain.
However, Su Yi said in a serious manner,"Business is business. It's because we're family that I only sold father-in-law for 50 million. If I sold this thing to Yuan Shao, father-in-law, guess how much he would pay."”
Cao Cao sighed helplessly,"You're right. If Yuan Shao can buy this Imperial Jade Seal, he'll be willing to pay for it."”
"That's right. Father-in-law is indeed an understanding person.”
Su Yi praised with a thumbs up.
Cao Cao shook his head and smiled bitterly." 50 million it is. I will take this Imperial Jade Seal with me. I will send someone to send the money over another day."”
"Alright, father-in-law can take it. We're family, how can I not trust father-in-law?”
Su Yi made the deal and quickly poured a cup of wine for Cao Cao.
Cao Cao then handed the Imperial Jade Seal to Xi Zhicai for safekeeping.
He drank a cup of wine.
Cao Cao said casually," I heard from my friends in the imperial court that Liu Xuande sent Mi Zhu to the capital to secretly join Sikong Cao. Sikong Cao has been hesitating. What do you think of this matter?"”
"Father-in-law, it's not easy for us to get together. Why do we have to keep talking about these national affairs?”
Su Yi complained.
Cao Cao said," If men don't talk about the world, what else can they talk about? Besides, you just earned 50 million from me. Can't you just talk to me about national affairs?"”
Su Yi was helpless. He smiled bitterly and said,"Alright, alright. Father-in-law wants to chat. I'll accompany you."”
"Then tell me, if you were Cao Gong, would you agree to Liu Bei's surrender or not?”
Cao Cao asked calmly.
A cold glint flashed across Su Yi's eyes as he snorted coldly,"If I were Cao Gong, I would send troops to break through Xiao Pei and kill Liu Bei!”
Cao Cao's body trembled slightly, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes as he looked at Xi Zhicai.
