Cai Feng was right in his mind and nodded quickly, for fear that Sun Ce would change his mind. As for Sun Ce's implicit sarcasm, he could only pretend that he didn't hear it.

The two entered the camp side by side and sat in the tent. Yang Yi served tea. Cai Feng stared at Yang Yi for a moment, and his heart skipped a beat. "Are you... Yang Yi, the second boy of the Yang family?"

Yang Yi bowed and bowed, neither humble nor arrogant. "Mr. Cai is really a good memory, and the boy is Yang Yi. General Meng refused to abandon him and was able to accompany the general."

Cai Feng opened his mouth and wanted to speak but stopped. He knew that the attendant seemed to be just a servant, but it was a very high starting point. Huang Yueying and Pang Tong were both servants around Sun Ce at the time. Now one is a famous craftsman in the world, and the other is a military sect in Qingzhou. When did Yang Yi become Sun Ce's servant? How could Yang Jie do this? He said two days ago that he wanted to negotiate terms with Sun Ce, and then he turned around and sent Yang Yi to Sun Ce.

Cai Feng cursed in his heart, but he did not dare to express any displeasure on his face. He had to nod his head repeatedly and look relieved. "Boy, this is your opportunity. Work hard, don't let down the general's wishes, and don't let down the ardent hopes of the elders of Xiangyang."

"Thank you Mr. Cai." Yang Yi thanked again and stepped back.

Sun Ce raised his teacup and politely celebrated Cai Feng's birthday. Cai Feng was flattered and raised his glass to return the greeting. After saying a few irrelevant gossips, he gradually talked about the important matter. Cai Feng was most concerned about Sun Ce's intention to build a bookstore in Xiangyang Academy, which was related to a lot of money. Sun Ce had no intention of concealing it at all and admitted it frankly. The bookstore was built to facilitate the dissemination of books and to make more people able to read books. The current price of books is too high and it is still quite far from his goal, so he didn't understand it very much.

"Mr. Cai, I am very clear about the construction of Wujun Printing Shop. Even the printing technology is provided by me. In Pingyu, I also built a printing shop. The cost of making a one-page book is only 100 yuan. Why is it as high as a hundred times when you arrive in Xiangyang?"

Cai Feng was surprised. "Is the general providing the printing technology?"

Sun Ce raised his eyebrows and asked back, "Where did Mr. Cai think it came from?"

Cai Feng didn't say anything for a long time. He always thought that this technology was invented by Huang Yueying, but unexpectedly it was provided by Sun Ce. Since this technology was originally Sun Ce, Sun Ce was willing to announce it now, and he had nothing to say.

"I don't know much about this...the workshop. I'm old and I won't ask about the specific matters. I'll go back and check it out to see if there are any misunderstandings inside."

"Thank you for your support, Mr. Cai." Sun Ce picked up the tea cup again and greeted Cai Feng. Cai Feng took a sip of tea. The tea was a little bitter. Cai Feng held it in his mouth and could not swallow it for a long time. The profit of tens of millions of dollars slipped away from his hand, and the knife cut him bloodied. Sun Ce put down the tea cup and continued, "Mr. Cai, as far as I know, the biggest business in the printing press in recent years is printing official documents, right?"

Cai Feng hurriedly swallowed the tea and nodded to admit it. The seven counties of Jingzhou, more than 100 counties and thousands of township pavilions, after having this book printing workshop, thousands of official documents can be posted directly to the pavilion. Some important documents can even be posted directly to the inner door without sending someone to copy them, ensuring that ordinary people see the same official documents. This is the main business of Caijia Book Printing House, accounting for more than 50%, with as few as one or two copies per month, and as many as more than ten copies.

"The printing plate costs are so high, is it because someone corrupts it?"

Sun Ce's voice was not loud, but every word was shocking. Cai Feng was frightened and his face changed. He had already let go of most of his heart and raised it again. He thought that Sun Ce asked him to make an account and his attitude was so good. As long as he admitted the loss of the printing press, even if this matter was over, he never thought that Sun Ce had no intention of this, and he would still have to investigate the inflated price of the printing plate.

"General, I have many people in charge of this matter. If you say that everyone is a gentleman, there is no problem at all. I am afraid the general will not believe it. However, I am not sure about the specific situation. Let me go back and investigate thoroughly and give the general a reply."

"Okay, this matter must not only be investigated, but also to the end. I have summoned Du Ji to take charge of this matter. The Cai family in Xiangyang is the richest man in Jingzhou. There will inevitably be many things involving the Cai family. At that time, I will ask Mr. Cai to cooperate."

Cai Feng's hand shook, and the teacup in his hand was knocked over. The tea water spilled all over the case, and the front of the abdomen was wet, as if he had incontinence. He was rushing to wipe it with his sleeves, but he couldn't wipe it clean. When Yang Yi heard the sound, he rushed over and took the teacup on the case and wiped the tea. He could understand Cai Feng's nervousness, and when he learned that Sun Ce was going to transfer Du Ji to take charge of the matter, he was also very nervous.

Du Ji, the governor of Jingzhou, was strict with law enforcement, selfless and decisive in killing and attacking. None of the powerful people in Jingzhou were afraid of him, so he nicknamed him Du Baihu, saying that he was honest and difficult to tempt, and the tiger said that he was powerful and difficult to threaten. Sun Ce drove Sun Fu away and transferred Du Ji to Xiangyang, which was a sign of a great war against the Xiangyang family, and the Cai family was the first to be hit and could not escape the disaster. It would be strange if Cai Feng was not nervous.

Sun Ce slowly sipped the tea and saw Cai Feng's panic. He could see the face of Huang Chengyan and his daughter and not embarrass Cai Feng, but what should be dealt with had to be dealt with. Cai Feng was greedy and did not know how to advance and retreat. For his own self-interest, he ignored his overall plan and dared to incite the Xiangyang family to negotiate terms with him. If such a person does not hit him hard, how could the Xiangyang family obey orders in the future?

The first step is to check the public funds of the printing press shop. He wants to take this opportunity to dig deep in Xiangyang. Four years ago, he used force to clean up some people. Four years later, the Xiangyang family is ready to move again, and he has to do it again. However, this time there is no need to use force, and he has more means to use it.

Yang Yi brought new tea, Cai Feng picked up the teacup, took two sips, barely controlling his emotions, but his face was still ugly, and his heartbeat was a little chaotic. Sun Fu left and Du Ji came. For the Cai family, it was like jumping from spring to autumn, from summer to winter overnight. The Cai family's good days are over. The richest man in Jingzhou, who had just been a few years, will soon be beaten back to his original form, and it is hard to say whether the richest man in Xiangyang can be kept. Sun Ce visited Pang Degong yesterday, and today Yang Yi appeared next to Sun Ce again. Just as Pang Tong appeared next to Sun Ce, Sun Ce supported the Pang family, and the Yang family's thoughts were clear, and the Cai family was abandoned by him.

How could things come to this point? Cai Feng was puzzled and his mind was blurred.

Seeing Cai Feng's face turned red, Sun Ce frowned. Cai Feng's blood pressure is not too high, right? An old man like him who lives a good life is most likely to have three highs. Don't cause cerebral hemorrhage. It's boring to die in his tent. He coughed, raised his glass, and smiled and said, "Mr. Cai, you look so bad, have you not recovered yet? Why don't I send someone to send you back to rest? Anyway, I have to stay in Xiangyang for a few days. When you are in good health, I will visit Caizhou again and ask in person. How about it?"

When Cai Feng heard that Sun Ce was going to visit Caizhou, a big stone fell to the ground in his heart. With this sentence, Sun Ce should not be able to kill him, and he would give the Cai family some face. He nodded repeatedly and stood up to say goodbye. He was unwilling to continue talking to Sun Ce, but who knew what kind of killing weapon Sun Ce threw out?

Sun Ce personally sent Cai Feng to the outside of the camp, smiling with a kind attitude, and having a very speculative attitude with Cai Feng. Although Cai Feng was confused, he was also the head of the family. He knew that he could not show his timidity at this time, so he forced himself to smile and said goodbye to Sun Ce. When the Xiangyang family gathered outside the camp saw him, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Only a few people saw that Cai Feng looked unnatural, and when they saw Yang Yi behind Sun Ce, they couldn't help but feel relieved.

Last night, he visited Pang Degong and now he brought Yang Yi with him. Cai Feng took the initiative to visit, but after only a while of talk, it came out. The situation was obviously not good. No matter how Sun Ce treated the Cai family, the Pang family, and the Yang family were about to rise. There were not many opportunities left for them. Pang Tong was going to get married the day after tomorrow, and it was still time to rush to give gifts.

Cai Feng said goodbye to Sun Ce and came to Jinkou. A group of people surrounded him and asked about the meeting between Cai Feng and Sun Ce. Cai Feng was full of how to deal with Du Ji's investigation. He was in a state of mind and said a few words absent-mindedly, asking Cai Ji to stay. No matter what, he had to wait until Huang Chengyan got on the boat, hurriedly got up and headed straight for Cai Zhou. When the others saw him, they knew very well. Some stayed and asked to see Sun Ce, while others got on the boat and left, and then thought of other ways. There were only a handful of people who followed Cai Feng back to Cai Zhou.

Cai Jue and Cai Yan talked very probable.

Cai Jue was originally quite hostile to Cai Yan and his daughter, but after reading the "Shi Lu" written by Cai Yan, he learned that the Shi Lin is no longer the world of Confucian scholars. Doctors, craftsmen, and martial artists can be called scholars. Not only that, women can also be called scholars and respectfully called women. This is Sun Ce's pioneering move, and Cai Yan is the courage to drum up for Sun Ce, so she naturally cannot argue. In addition, Cai Yan called her sister intimately and talked about the friendship between the two when Huang Yueying was in Wancheng. Even if Cai Jue felt a little confused, she was embarrassed to put it on her face.

After talking for more than half an hour, Cai Yan kept Cai Jue for dinner at the academy, but Cai Jue was worried about Cai Feng, and politely rejected Cai Yan's invitation, got up and left the academy. As soon as he got off the Yutou slope and left the woods, he saw Huang Chengyan sitting in the shade of the tree on the side of the road, with a carriage parked on the side of the road. Cai Jue immediately understood the whole story, felt unhappy, and walked to Huang Chengyan.

"I, Ahon?"

"Yes." Huang Chengyan nodded. "But he left again."

"The time is so short, the talks went smoothly? This is not like him."

"The talk was not going well." Huang Chengyan stood up, accompanied Cai Jue into the car, and slowly drove towards the camp. Close the car door and opened the window. Huang Chengyan looked at the pedestrians outside in groups of three or three. "Cai Jijiu tells you what General Sun's speech today? Do you want me to tell you?"
