The God of War in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 251 I want to make money
After the barracks, Chen Ran returned to the Hou's mansion as a matter of course.

He still has things to do, and very important things at that.

In this world, what is crucial and essential?

Yes, money.

Money is not everything, but no money is absolutely impossible.

Why can Chen Ran afford to kill the God Army?Can be equipped with horses and armor?

Because Emperor Han Ling gave money and food.

In fact, Chen Ran's own money is not small, but it is not too much either.They are all rewards from Emperor Ling. If it is spent by one person, it is enough to do some things, but if it is to raise soldiers, it is stretched.

Chen Ran wants to train soldiers, he is definitely not the kind of farmer who carries guns during wars and soldiers who farm the fields after wars. If Chen Ran wants to train, he must be a professional army.An army specially prepared for war.

Chen Ran is very clear that within a few years, this troubled world will begin.Among them, Dong Zhuo was the leader who caused chaos in the capital, and the rule of the Han Dynasty changed from unstable to completely collapsed, falling apart.

According to Chen Ran's understanding, it is obvious that this world has both similarities and differences with the Three Kingdoms world that Chen Ran understands.Chen Ran didn't know how long Lingdi could last.

When will the disruption start?Chen Ran didn't dare to gamble, if he fell into a passive position, he might suffer a crushing defeat.It must be prepared as early as possible.

Then the problem arises, if Chen Ran goes to Yangzhou, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, it is impossible for Lingdi to give too much support, at most he can only give some political support.

As for money, food and grass, Chen Ran has to work hard.

The food is in the south, Chen Ran doesn't think it's a problem.

But for this money, Yangzhou's economy is indeed not as developed as that of the north.

If Chen Ran wants to raise an army, it is naturally impossible to only kill the 4000 people of the Shenshen Army. Although the Killing Gods Army is strong, it cannot sweep the world. If there is no other army to cooperate, Chen Ran will die.

Such an army, weapons and armor, all kinds of food and grass, cost a lot, how can it be supported without money?
And if you want to talk about the richest place in the world, there is no doubt that it is the land under Chen Ran's feet. Luoyang, the capital of Han, has tens of thousands of rich people. Naturally, you can have as much money as you want.

Of course, Chen Ran couldn't just grab it like Dong Zhuo did.You have to use your brain and come up with some novelty, so that these rich people will consciously hand over their money.

This is a question, but Chen Ran is thinking about it.

For the next month or so, apart from Chen Ran's marriage, Chen Ran was very idle. Instead of doing nothing during this period, it's better to take the opportunity to make a fortune.

More than a month is enough to do a lot of things, Chen Ran thought.

What to do?

Chen Ran thought hard, his eyes lit up, and finally there was a result.

Chen Ran approached Guan Min: "Guan Min, go to the Luoyang workshop and find some porcelain craftsmen for me."

Guan Min was a little curious, and asked in surprise, "My lord, why do you need a porcelain maker? Do you want to make porcelain?"

Chen Ran had a mysterious face, and smiled slightly: "You go and find the porcelain maker first, and then say that I want it."

With Chen Ran's current status, it is obvious that someone has asked others to give him face.Anyway, there are few good people in Luoyang City, so Chen Ran naturally doesn't mind dragging his face out to suppress others.

Although Guan Min was a little puzzled, he still took the order and left.

Yes, Chen Ran is going to make porcelain.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the most primitive celadon appeared, but inevitably, as a new porcelain, it was still extremely primitive and rough, and it was completely incomparable with the fine porcelain of later generations.

You must know that porcelain from the Song Dynasty has been sold overseas, and everyone praises it, and the quality is also outstanding.

Of course, Chen Ran never worked as a porcelain craftsman, but Chen Ran has visited those famous porcelain-making holy places since ancient times, including Jingdezhen, the capital of porcelain.

Because it was really amazing, this matter left a deep impression on Chen Ran, so Chen Ran also remembered very clearly the process of making porcelain.

It is naturally impossible for Chen Ran to make the porcelain completely by himself, but if there is a porcelain craftsman to help, then there must be no problem.

He is professional, but lacks core knowledge. Chen Ran is not professional, but he has mastered techniques that are not available in this era.

Once Chen Ran made the porcelain, it would definitely sweep the porcelain industry in the late Han Dynasty.And what Chen Ran intends to take is the high-end route, no matter what, let's make a fortune in Luoyang first.

If the high-quality porcelain is sold in Luoyang City as a luxury, Chen Ran has no way of knowing the specific situation, but Chen Ran can be sure that it will definitely sell very well.

You must know that in the homes of high-ranking officials and nobles in Luoyang City, what they lack is not money. If buying porcelain can show their status, they will naturally not be stingy with money.

As for the detailed process, Chen Ran already had a rough plan in mind.

Just wait for Guan Min to call him back.

After all, Chen Ran is not a professional. Even if he has the skills, he cannot succeed in a short period of time. It still needs a period of time for testing and specific experiments.

But what is certain is that as long as there is technology, it is only a matter of time before porcelain is made.

Half an hour later, Guan Min walked into the Hou's Mansion with five craftsmen in simple clothes, and their work efficiency was extremely high.

Among the five porcelain craftsmen, there are old men in their 50s and young ones in their twenties.Chen Ran looked at the five people, but he didn't take them lightly.

"My lord, these are all found in the workshop, the younger one reported the name of the younger one, and the steward chose these five people to come back with the younger one." Guan Min roughly explained the situation.

Chen Ran nodded slightly, which was also expected. With his current status, few people dare not give face.The workshop is an official property, and those in charge are probably even more unwilling to offend Chen Ran.Since Chen Ran needs these people, it is better to send them directly and make friends with Chen Ran.

"Okay, Guan Min, do you ever have the contracts of these five people?" Chen Ran asked again. If he wanted to use these people, he naturally couldn't let others control them.

Guan Min nodded, took out the contract from his pocket, handed it to Chen Ran, and said, "My lord, it's all here."

Chen Ran took a look, there is no problem, it seems that those people are really decisive.Chen Ran couldn't help being a little funny, the workshop manager was probably curious about what he was going to do at the moment, and they might regret it after a while.

However, Chen Ran was not worried. Now that he had the support of Emperor Ling, he naturally walked sideways in Luoyang City.

The five people didn't know whether it was enough, Chen Ran thought about it, and tried it out first, if it works, use it, if it doesn't work, send them away.

If the number of people is not enough at that time, the big deal is to ask for more people.

In today's era, the worker-official system is the main one.The main skilled craftsmen are gathered in workshops with official backgrounds. It is not difficult for Chen Ran to find skilled craftsmen.

Chen Ran's gaze returned to the five porcelain craftsmen in different shapes and ages in front of him again.
