"It's not impossible to set up a separate official position.”
"But this salary still has to be linked to the authority. I can't give you a high position and a generous salary, and you can occasionally come and help me, right?”
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and saw through Zhao Mu's thoughts.
In the beginning.
Cao Cao thought that Zhao Mu was afraid of suspicion, so he was unwilling to hold power.
But soon, Cao Cao noticed that something was wrong.
With their current relationship, Zhao Mu had already become a prospective son-in-law. Why did he still not want to hold real power?
Could it be that he was so paranoid that he even suspected his son-in-law?
He recalled the conversation he had with Zhao Mu the first time he met him.
"Then why don't you climb up step by step? With your ability as a transmigrator, you might be able to have a good future. Why take the risk to expose yourself?”
"If I can achieve it in one step, why should I climb up step by step? Your words are so boring."
" I don't hold any real power because I'm not sure if the experience and theories I have grasped are suitable for this era after 1,800 years of change.”
"However, I can take up the empty position and use history as a mirror to help Cao Gong check and fill in the gaps!”
"Of course, if it's possible, I'd be most willing to be the son-in-law of the Cao family!”
"It is said that the eldest daughter of Cao Gong, Yun Ying, is not married yet.”
When Zhao Mu went to meet Cao Song, he met the Tao merchant alone, attacked him in the night, and sent the Tao merchant's head to Tancheng to sow discord.
It was completely different from what Zhao Mu had said," 1,800 years of changes, the experience and theories I have are not suitable for this era.”reason.
Cao Cao made a bold guess.
Zhao Mu didn't hold any real power and risked his life to expose himself. It wasn't because of the various seemingly reasonable reasons. The fundamental reason was that Zhao Mu wanted a comfortable living environment!
Cao Cao's guess was not without reason.
If the life of a fisherman and a farmer could make Zhao Mu happy, then he would be able to live a good life.
For example, Zhao Mu would never risk his life to become a farm owner and keep a few concubines.
The reason was simple.
It was because the barefoot were not afraid of the ones wearing shoes. It was not because Zhao Mu had great ambition and professionalism.
Now that he had become the future son-in-law, Zhao Mu was naturally unwilling to follow Zhuge Liang's example.
He wouldn't have followed Guo Jia's example and died young before forty!
Seeing Cao Cao's expression that said 'I've already seen through you', Zhao Mu smiled,"Duke Cao, Great Grandfather said that the Cao family business needs a capable and close person to manage it. I am actually a little conflicted. Should I work under you or manage the family business for Great Grandfather?”
???
Cao Cao's expression suddenly changed. He was shocked,""What did you say? You want to take care of my father's assets? Do I need you to take care of it? Doesn't my father intend to let me allocate the family assets?”
"Cao Gong! You're not the only son of Great Grandfather. Moreover, with his character of viewing money as his life, do you want him to allocate all the family assets to you? What good things are you fantasizing about!" Zhao Mu said in disdain.
When he went to see Cao Song, Cao Song's expression of " where the person is, the money is, the money is lost, the person is dead " was still fresh in Zhao Mu's memory!
Cao Cao was dumbfounded.
At this time, he could still sit here leisurely and chat with Zhao Mu because Cao Cao felt that with Cao Song's family capital of more than a hundred cars, he had enough confidence!
However, Cao Cao did not expect that Cao Song had no intention of giving the family assets to Cao Cao!
Going to Langya County was to avoid disaster.
He came to Yanzhou to avoid disaster!
Don't even think about taking out a five baht coin from Cao Song's pocket!
"Haha!"
After a long time, Cao Cao laughed.
"Jing Lue, look at what you're saying. Isn't it just a special official position?”
"No matter how much my father has promised you, I will give you double. Moreover, I will allow you to occasionally offer advice!”
To let a transmigrator take care of Cao Song's family business, wasn't that a reckless waste?
Although…
Cao Cao really wanted to use his father-in-law's authority to teach Zhao Mu a lesson.
However…
Zhao Mu was obviously not someone who would cower in fear of Cao Cao. Now that he had Cao Song as his retreat route, his daughter was still in love with him.
He couldn't kill them, so Zhao Mu didn't take it seriously even if he scolded them.
Other than playing to his liking, Cao Cao didn't seem to have any better ideas!
"The Great Grandfather said that he would temporarily grant me a monthly salary of 120 stone grains, which is equivalent to the salary of a county governor.”
"If Cao Gong wants double, then his monthly salary will be 240 stone grains!”
Zhao Mu smiled, his eyes like a sly fox.
The three dukes had a monthly salary of 350 dans, and the nine ministers had a monthly salary of 180 dans. Zhao Mu's salary was almost comparable to the three dukes!
"Your monthly salary is 240 stones. Why don't you go rob someone?”
Cao Cao couldn't hold it in any longer.
If I was so rich, I could give a sinecure such a large monthly salary. Even if I threw money, I could still get the scholars of Yanzhou to come out and work for me!
"Then there's no other way! It seems that I can only manage the family business for the old grandfather. In terms of asset management, I still have some standards.”Zhao Mu pretended to leave.
This was not the first time Zhao Mu had met Cao Cao.
With Cao Song around, he had successfully captured Cao Qinghe's heart, and he had exposed his identity as a transmigrator.
As long as he did not cross Cao Cao's bottom line, Zhao Mu did not need to be submissive!
"Wait! I agree!"
"If I don't specially set up an official position for you, I'll make up for the salary that you lack on the surface!”
"But you have to do something for me!"
Cao Cao's eyes were filled with helplessness and depression.
