The cavalry of Youzhou and the strong crossbow of Jizhou!
Hearing Zhen Jiang's words, Cao Yan was clearly stunned.
At the end of the Han Dynasty, there were two strongest cavalrymen.
The other was the Youzhou Raiders. Youzhou was bordered by foreign tribes.
It also led to the people being tough, and the pastures in Youzhou were even more suitable for raising warhorses.
Otherwise, why would Gongsun Zan be able to kill so many Outsiders?
He could even arm-wrestle with Yuan Shao, who had four generations of dukes.
And the strong crossbows of Jizhou were even more famous for being tyrannical.
Zhen Clan was just a merchant clan, yet they could help him get warhorses from Youzhou Province and strong crossbows from Jizhou Province?
Cao Yan looked up at Zhen Jiang suspiciously.
Before he could speak, Zhen Jiang saw through his thoughts.
Zhen Jiang tied up her hair and said with a smile,
"I like seeing you like this. You've never seen the world before.”
“。。。。。。”
Cao Yan couldn't help but curl his lips.
It was almost comparable to him.
Zhen Jiang didn't let Cao Yan wait any longer and continued to explain.
"Have you heard of the Mi, Lu, Wei, and Zhen Families?”
Cao Yan nodded seriously.
He knew about this. They were known as the four wealthy merchants of the late Han Dynasty.
However, how did this wealthy businessman get involved with the arms trade?
Could it be?
Cao Yan seemed to have thought of something, and his pupils could not help but shrink.
Seeing Cao Yan's enlightenment, Zhen Jiang couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh.
"That's right, it's exactly what you think.”
"Our Zhen family is in Jizhou. On the surface, we are in the cloth business.”
"But in this chaotic world, how many people do you think have nothing to eat, no clothes to cover their bodies, and no place to live?”
"If that's all, you can't even hold up the title of the richest man in the world.”
"Warhorse? Armament?"
Cao Yan narrowed his eyes and probed.
Zhen Jiang nodded slightly, a hint of pride on his face.
"Normally, people wouldn't know about this.”
"But you, you can barely be considered my man.”
Cao Yan's mouth twitched.
It seemed that Old Cao had known about this long ago.
According to the Cao family's background, there was no need to curry favor with a merchant family.
Cao Yan frowned and asked in confusion,"
"Could it be that the other three clans are the same?”
Zhen Jiang pouted, looking extremely cute.
Seeing that Cao Yan was waiting for him to speak, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Then, he stuck out his tongue and continued,
"More or less."
"The Wei family of the East River controls the trade channels with the non-humankind.”
"Do you want to think about what they are buying and selling?”
Cao Yan took a deep breath. What else could he sell by trading with the non-humankind?
Warhorses, cattle, sheep, and other livestock, furs, and ironware?
Zhen Jiang did not hesitate and continued,
"On the surface, Eastern Sea's Mi family is in the grain business.”
"But behind his back, he started by selling illegal salt.”
"As for the last Lu family, it's better to call it the Lu family now.”
"Because the Lu Clan has long declined. Now, the Lu Clan of Huainan is the largest grain merchant in the world.”
"It is said that the amount of grain he has accumulated is more than a million bushels.”
Hiss...
Even though Cao Yan thought he was knowledgeable, he was still shocked by Zhen Jiang's words.
His words completely overturned his worldview, and he could not come back to his senses for a long time.
The Zhen Clan chose Yuan Shao, and the Mi Clan naturally chose Mi Zhu and Mi Fang from Xu Prefecture.
In the end, he chose Liu Bei. Otherwise, Liu Bei wouldn't have been able to do it.
He fled everywhere, but he could still rise again.
Could the Lu Clan of Huainan be Lu Su, that big grain merchant?
As for the Wei family of the east of the river, if he remembered correctly.
It should be Old Cao's subordinate, Wei Jie's family.
hiss, thinking carefully, I am extremely frightened.
I thought it would be a competition between heroes, but in the end, you're telling me that it's a 'millionaire'?
