Guo Shi originally hoped to persuade Liu Zheng to continue to attack Nanjun and eliminate Cai Mao, so as to capture the entire Jingzhou in one fell swoop.

However, seeing that Liu Zheng didn't seem to have much interest in continuing to send troops, and Guo Shi was also smart, he stopped mentioning the matter of attacking.

After Guo Shi left, Liu Zheng began to arrange his own affairs, first sending someone to contact Cai Mao, telling Cai Mao what happened here, and at the same time sending someone to contact the merchant stronghold established in Changsha City before.

Changsha City, this place, in fact, has long been Liu Zheng's own location, when he first came to Yichun County a year ago, he established a caravan, and the first place to establish a stronghold was Changsha.

Now after a year of maintenance here, plus the Mijia family has been delivering and buying goods for a year, the stronghold here is now developing quite well.

Before, even Mi Fang, the second son of the Mi family, was stationed here all year round, but recently, because of Sun Jian's arrival, Mi Fang rarely came here for the sake of safety, and most of the time he was in the second stronghold in Yichun County, Liu Zheng's old nest.

But now that he heard that Liu Zheng had conquered Changsha City, Mi Fang still came here soon to see Liu Zheng.

On the second day after Liu Zheng conquered Changsha City, Mi Fang came in a hurry with his cronies.

"The villain Mi Fang, I've seen the adult."

"No courtesy, Mi Fang, we are also old acquaintances, we don't need so many courtesies, how are we doing lately?"

I haven't seen Mi Fang for more than half a year, but the transaction cooperation between Mi Fang and Liu Zheng, during this time, there is still no one left behind, basically there are Zu Lang's people, responsible for protection, Mi Fang is between these two lakes, and there are no forces that dare to fight the Mi family's idea.

Even if there is a force that wants to fight the attention of the Mi family, the first thing to face is Zu Lang's anger and the siege of Liu Zheng behind him.

"My lord, it's been good lately, although Jingzhou has been in the midst of war during this time, our trade has not been greatly affected."

The Mi family's trade in Jingzhou, which is mainly in Changsha, Jiangxia, Xiangyang, and the four counties of Jingnan are rarely involved, because there are many Shanyue people there, and the road is not easy to walk, so the battles in the four counties of Jingnan basically have little impact on the Mi family's business.

It's just that Guo Shi's people went north to develop before, so that the trade on Changsha's side temporarily dropped somewhat, but later after Sun Jian brought Changsha back, all this became better.

"Well, your Mi family is more good at this aspect of things, I don't understand, so I won't ask too much."

"I heard that the general's recent southern expedition has been successful, and now he has conquered the entire Jiaozhou?"

After Mi Fang reported on the recent business and trade matters, she suddenly changed her words and inquired at Liu Zheng eagerly.

"It's true, the news spreads quickly, I didn't expect you all to already know."

It has only been a month since Liu Zheng beat Jiaozhou, and this month's time, eight hundred miles of urgency, is estimated to have spread to Luoyang, but the folk Mi Zhu and others are just businessmen, and they already know it, so I am afraid that this news will soon spread to the entire Han world.

"General Liu Zheng may have forgotten that our Mi family wants to make a living between these two lakes, and naturally we have to arrange some manpower in this vicinity, so if there is any wind and grass nearby, we businessmen are the most well-informed."

"That's right, I did just lay down Jiaozhou, but this is also good news for your Mi family, so that your Mi family can do business in Jiaozhou, and in my territory, I can even exempt you from taxes and vigorously support your career."

Liu Zheng's words made Mi Fang's face suddenly appear a trace of joy.

However, although Liu Zheng said that he could help them do business in Jiaozhou, Jiaozhou is steep and rugged, and it is not easy to transport at all, and business contacts are only afraid that it will be greatly affected.

"My lord, although Jiaozhou is also a place that our Mi family wants to touch, but the distance from Jiaozhou is too far, and the waterway is not passable, if you want to develop business, I am afraid that it is not so easy."

The Mi Fang family has always only done lake water transportation, and they really haven't tried it for a place so far away in Jiaozhou.

Liu Zheng heard Mi Fang's embarrassment, but immediately laughed.

"Who said that water transportation is not working, water transportation is not working, we can go by sea!"

"Sea freight?"

When Mi Fang heard these two words, she was stunned.

Liu Zheng saw Mi Fang's puzzled look, and then he suddenly realized, thinking that it was now the Three Kingdoms period, and Mi Fang, a person who lived in inland areas, naturally did not understand the geographical environment of the ocean, nor would he know that the coast of the Han River and Mountains was connected, and he could use the sea from Jiaozhou to sail directly to Youzhou.

Now explain to Mi Fang, Mi Fang may not know, but in the future, let their fleet personally run from Xuzhou to the Yangtze River, to the coast, and then arrive at Hepu in Jiaozhou, where Hepu's seafood, sugar cane, ivory and other specialties will be transported to Jiaozhou and other places for sale.

Mi Fang will understand the trade wealth of Jiaozhou.

"The matter of Jiaozhou trade, Yuan Zhou will go to you to talk about it in the future, now I don't have the time to pay attention to those things, I heard you say that your Mi family's intelligence work is good, what has happened to the imperial court recently?"

Liu Zheng came to Mi Fang, in fact, talking about trade with Mi Fang was one of the reasons, and on the other hand, Liu Zheng had been in Jiaozhou for a few months, and he hadn't heard the information of the Han world for a long time.

Although he sent a lot of spies and meticulous work to various places, the effectiveness of the intelligence work of those people could not be reflected in a short period of time.

That's why Liu Zheng asked Mi Fang at this time, maybe Mi Fang could give him some answers in this regard.

"These days in the imperial court, there is not much movement, the rebellion in Liangzhou is still getting more and more intense, a large number of troops in the imperial court are in Xiliang, Jizhou's Huangfu Song Zhonglang General is making every effort to encircle and suppress the chaos of assassinating Shi Wangfen, I heard that Zhonglang will invite the surrounding Taishou to attack Jizhou together."

"What is the situation in Jizhou?"

When Liu Zheng heard Mi Fang say that Huangfu Song united with other Taishou to attack Jizhou, he faintly felt that something was wrong.

"I heard that the people assembled by Wang Fen's army in Jizhou did not take advantage of any advantage in several battles with Huangfu Songzhong Lang, and the defeated ones retreated, and most of the territory in Jizhou was recovered by Huangfu Song, and now only their new capital has not been breached."

"Looking at this situation, I'm afraid that it won't last long, and it will be calmed down by Huangfu Song Zhonglang."
