Chapter 844 Shocked Cao Cao

However, it was not surprising that Cao Cao thought that all the golden wheat waves belonged to the old man's family.

"Okay, I happen to be hungry too, so I'll come and have a meal with you."

Cao Cao said with a smile.

The old man waved his hand:

"What can I thank you for?"

“All this food is wasted if we don’t eat it.”

"But the Marquis taught us to dig cellars and preserve food."

"Compared to a granary, it can really be saved like this."

"I am not bragging, old man. Even if there is a severe drought for two years, we will not be hungry."

"Here, try the steamed buns that have just come out of the pot."

Cao Cao took the steamed buns out of habit.

To be honest, it's a little hot.

But it tastes just right.

After blowing on it, I took a bite.

fragrant!

"Don't be stunned, come and have something to eat together."

When the old man saw Dian Wei and others standing there like wooden stakes, he couldn't help but speak.

Dian Wei swallowed.

To be honest, I'm really hungry.

Everyone has not eaten since they came out of the palace.

Now this big white steamed bun looks really tempting.

"Old man, you don't have much in this pot. I have a lot of people. If each person eats one, you won't have to eat."

Cao Cao said while chewing the sweet steamed buns.

The old man glanced at Cao Cao:

"You kid, do you really look down on me, old man?"

"We have this condition, you can eat whatever you want!"

After that, the old man opened a few more steam drawers.

Good guy!

At least hundreds of steamed buns!

After seeing Cao Cao's permission, Dian Wei and others went to find the old man with a smile. They didn't ask for more from anyone, so they took a steamed bun and ate it hungrily.

The old man on the side was dumbfounded and asked curiously:

"Where are you from?"

"Why do my guards look like they haven't eaten in a few days?"

Cao Cao suddenly smiled awkwardly:

"From Xuchang."

After that, Cao Cao regretted it.

It's over. Did you spill the beans?

The old man couldn't help but shook his head:

"The official of Xu Du is indeed a high official."

"Unexpectedly, the guards of Xudu's high officials are like this."

"Looking at you, if the old man guessed correctly, are you going to be transferred to Hanzhong?"

Seeing this, Cao Cao hurriedly walked down the slope and nodded.

The old man said with a smile:

"Come to Hanzhong, there is no shortage of food. Just these steamed buns, you can eat a hundred of them in one meal!"

"I am really impressed by your transfer to Hanzhong."

Hearing the old man's words, Cao Cao suddenly couldn't laugh or cry:

"I never expected that the Marquis of Hanzhong would be so popular among the people."

"If someone is really transferred to Hanzhong, he must pay a good visit to the Marquis of Hanzhong."

After saying that, Cao Cao glanced at Bai Feng intentionally or unintentionally.

Good guy!

Bai Feng called out in his heart, "What a guy!"

Boss Cao, are you a bit too damaged?

This is too much!

Why does this sound so wrong?

The old man frowned and said:

"I can tell you, no matter how big your official position is, even if you are the prime minister, you must respect the Marquis when you see him."

"The Marquis is the pride of our Wei Dynasty, and His Majesty is full of praise."

"If you contradict the Marquis, we Hanzhong people will fight against you."

Cao Cao couldn't help being shocked when he heard this.

Prime Minister...

He really did become a prime minister.

But this old man is really not afraid of anything.

How dare an ordinary citizen say that after knowing that he is an official?

Even the Prime Minister dares to say this for the sake of Hanzhong Hou?

However, Cao Cao didn't care.

After all, the old man had lived a life of hardship, and now Bai Feng helped his family escape from the sea of ​​hardship.

In addition, the old man is old, takes life and death lightly, has no fear, and will only speak to people he recognizes.

This is understandable.

However, Cao Cao did not expect that a small farmer could live such a prosperous life.

Just a few years ago, hundreds of people would have eaten these white-flour steamed buns.

No bite is too little for anyone.

But now?

An ordinary farmer in Hanzhong can eat more than a hundred steamed buns at home!

However, this is not a waste.

The old man said that these steamed buns were definitely not eaten by himself, but were eaten by the workers in the field who came to help harvest the wheat after receiving wages.

Not only are there steamed buns, but there are also corn and vegetables.

Not only that, these workers also get wages every day.

Cao Cao was shocked by this.

After this trip, Cao Cao's understanding of Hanzhong has undergone earth-shaking changes.

"Your Majesty, would you like to go to the county center and have a look?"

At this time, Dian Wei whispered.

Cao Cao shook his head and said:

"Forget it, forget it, I can't bear this blow!"

"Unexpectedly, in this small Hanzhong, people's lives are better than those in the capital."

"Sir, you can't just focus on one Hanzhong. The whole world needs you to do this."

"Perhaps, I can see that the entire Wei Dynasty will become as wealthy as Hanzhong in the future."

Cao Cao has been fighting abroad in recent years and has never paid much attention to the sentiments of the people.

He only knew that the people today were well fed and clothed, but he did not know that they would be so wealthy.

If the standards of this farmer's family were extended to the entire Wei Dynasty.

Why is the Wei Dynasty worried?

From this point alone, who can tell that this is a situation just after the founding of the country?

It can be said that it is unprecedented and unprecedented!

"When I came out this time, I didn't just come to see Hanzhong. I also wanted to see other counties and cities."

"Since Hanzhong is like this, other counties and cities must not be too bad either."

"At the very least, I can have enough food and clothing."

Cao Cao waved his hand, feeling very satisfied.

Although this trip to Hanzhong was only spent in a farmer's house, Cao Cao was extremely shocked and satisfied.

This can be said to be a microcosm of the entire Hanzhong.

And that's just the agricultural aspect.

In fact, Cao Cao has also seen a thing or two about the commercial aspects that Hanzhong is currently promoting.

Just a drop in the ocean was enough to shock Cao Cao.

There are all kinds of merchants in Manchu and Hanzhong, coming from different places, selling different things, and they look full of life.

This made Cao Cao want to explore.

"Sir, would you mind accompanying me to see more of your Hanzhong?"

"This Hanzhong really surprised me."

Cao Cao said with a smile.

Bai Feng suddenly couldn't laugh or cry:

"Your Majesty wants to see it, of course you can."

"But let's eat something first."

"General Dian's stomach is growling all the way."

When Dian Wei heard this, he immediately smiled sheepishly:

"This steamed bun is indeed not very filling."

Cao Cao smiled helplessly:

"I'm here to treat you today. Let's go to the restaurant to have something good."

"Look at what you are like. If others saw it, what would they think I was doing to you?"

"Eat with the open air, and you are not allowed to leave until you are full."

Having said that, under the leadership of Bai Feng, everyone arrived at the largest restaurant in Hanzhong.
