Chapter 311: Mi Zhu Throwing Gold
The potters and others arrived in Beihai County and met with the Confucian Commander.
At that moment, Kong Rong was in the mansion of Beihai County, entertaining all the guests who came from afar. In Yingling City, the high-ranking cadres in the county who have heads and faces are all accompanied.
Kong Rong's actions can be regarded as a big face for the Xuzhou envoy group.
In recent years, the Xuzhou Tao family has become famous in the southeast, and in diplomacy, the identity is unconscious, and the tide is rising.
In the hall of the government, the members of the Xuzhou envoy group wondered in their hearts - looking at the on-the-job officials of Beihai County, all of them were good-looking and healthy, and they were obviously carefully screened, and they were all handsome people in a hundred.
On the other hand, Kong Rong, who is the boss, is a little too shabby compared with these officials under him.
Which play is this?
It seemed that he could see the doubts in the hearts of everyone in the hall, Kong Rong explained to everyone with a smile.
"You don't have to be so confused, the people under Kong's account are all handsome and extraordinary, and this fact is due to the contemptible mind...... Kong has no other strengths, only this good looks, good conduct, can be described as both internal and external! But as the so-called beauty alone is not as good as the beauty of others, if I am the only one in the officialdom of Beihai County, I am the only one who is good-looking, and it is really a joke for others to see and find fault with it......"
The potter listened to Kong Rong's brag and listened to the toothache.
Is there any pressure in this short and fat heart?
What do you look like, don't you take a pee yourself? β¦β¦ It is not as beautiful as all the beauty.
The Xuzhou envoys were full of contempt for Kong Rong's unfounded narcissism.
Only Tao Ying praised from the bottom of his heart: "Kong Beihai is right." β
This kid is really aesthetically eaten by dogs.
Only Kong Rong nodded with satisfaction: "This kid is young, but he really has vision!" β
Everyone was collectively embarrassed.
As the main representative of the Xuzhou envoy group, Mi Zhu mainly focused on the matter of asking for help.
He cleared his throat and said to Kong Rong: "Kong Beihai, I am waiting for this time to go north to Qingzhou, I really have something important to ask for, Kong Beihai is a great Confucian in the world, famous in the world, and admired by all the scholars. β
Mi Zhu's words surprised Kong Ronghao, and he wondered: "How can Mi Zhu's words be so serious?" Isn't there something big going on in Xuzhou? β
Mi Zhu was concise and to the point, and roughly explained the grievances and hatred between Xuzhou and Cao Cao to Kong Rong.
In the end, Fang Tingmizhu said: "Kong Beihai, Cao Jugao's death, I Xuzhou can be said to have been framed, this fact is another story!" But Cao Mengde has a heavy sense of revenge, has gathered soldiers and horses in the Liang country, may soon send troops to fight, Tao Zhijun is very worried, lest he mistake the people of Xuzhou, let Mi and Taiping Gongzi come to Beihai County, please Kong Beihai to give high righteousness, send troops to help, I Xuzhou up and down the day to swear to repay this kindness! β
Kong Rong listened to Mi Zhen's words, and only then did he wake up in his heart.
However, although Kong Rong is a great Confucian in the world, he is not in charge of all the bad things, even if the pottery merchant and Mi Zhu led the envoy group to ask him for help, but in Kong Rong's view, Cao Cao's current power is in full swing, in fact, it is not more idle, and it is purely self-inflicted to fight with him.
Besides, Kong Rong and his Shangguan Qingzhou Thorn Shi Tian Kai can be regarded as supporting Yuan Shu and Gongsun Zhan.
And Tao Qian and Cao Cao are both from Yuan Shao's line, and those of them are infighting dog-eat-dog, what's the matter with Guan Kong?
After thinking clearly about the pros and cons in an instant, Kong Rong showed a helpless and regretful expression.
"Thanks to Tao Yuanjun for looking up to Kong so much, he also made a special trip to let Prince Taiping and Mi Bei drive to Beihai County, but even if Kong has a heart, he is really powerless! Beihai County soldiers are outnumbered, the previous time to assist Tian Kai and Gongsun Zan to resist the enemy, it is already a big injury, Cao Cao's move to send troops to Xuzhou, it is indeed hurtful to the heavens, but Kong is really powerless, I am afraid that this help will not be able to help......"
When Mi Zhu heard this, his face remained unchanged.
Kong Rong's refusal was expected by him.
He stretched out his hand and raised a finger at Kong Rong from afar.
Kong Rong was a little stunned when he saw this.
Why is this old boy sticking his finger up with me? Do you have slender fingers?
The potter was also puzzled by the spectacle.
Mi Zhu, is he "" Kong Rong?
But this finger is not right, what is he doing with his index finger? β¦β¦ I guess it's the middle finger.
"Ten thousand gold."
Mi Zhu said slowly: "Mi Zhu is willing to personally contribute and ask Kong Beihai to send troops to help me Xuzhou." β
As soon as these words came out, everyone present couldn't help but be moved.
Mi Zhu, what a big deal! Are you willing to pay so much money when you open your mouth?
Everyone knows that the Mi family is a giant in the southeast, but no matter how rich his family is, the money is earned by others.
Taking their own family's money out to bring justice to their own master, such people cannot be said to be none, but they are definitely a handful.
It's really willing to pay for it.
The potter looked at Mi Zhu quietly, and he really looked up to him a little bit in his heart.
Mi Zhu, although he has the nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages like ordinary businessmen, and also has some selfishness and calculations as a strong man, but I have to admit that in some aspects, Mi Zhu's mind is still quite generous.
As a courtier, Mi Zhu in history was dedicated to each of his lords, and he was a mess with his generous shots.
Just like today, for the safety of the Tao family, Mi Zhu threw 10,000 gold with one hand to win reinforcements for Tao Qian, which is a proof of his open-mindedness.
In the original history, when Liu Bei was defeated by LΓΌ Bu and Yuan Shu and retreated to Haixi County, Guangling, his wife and daughter were all separated.
Liu Bei, who had nothing, remembered that he had worked hard for many years in vain, and once lost his foundation, he couldn't help crying.
At that time, there was only Mi Zhu by his side.
Facing the disheartened Liu Bei, Mi Zhu just quietly listened to Liu Bei's bitter complaints and complaints.
In the end, Liu Bei said: "The foundation is gone, the money is gone, the wife and children are gone, I have nothing, I am finished!" As a concluding discourse.
Mi Zhu just replied to him with two words:
Hehe.
A day later, he sent his sister to Liu Bei - you have a wife.
Subsequently, he bought thousands of sturdy servants as a dowry, carefully trained them, and let them live and die for Liu Bei - you have a foundation.
Subsequently, he continued to supply Liu Bei with money and food, and used the huge financial resources of the Mi family as Liu Bei's strong backing - you have money.
This is Mi Zhu, a tycoon in troubled times who is good at calculations on weekdays, but dares to gamble at critical moments, and can sacrifice everything for his master!
It seems that it's not just Liu Bei, he still treats Tao Qian like this......
As soon as he heard Mi Zhu's shot so broad, Kong Rong's eyes were about to pop out.
It has always been the lord who rewards his subordinates, how can any subordinate pay for the lord? The courtiers of Xuzhou are really unusual!
Today is an eye-opener!
Where is Tao Qian's old guy good, is it worth Mi Zhu to pay so much for him? It's 10,000 gold as soon as you make a shot?
"That ......" Kong Rong said with some hesitation: "Tian Envoy Jun of Qingzhou Thorn History, has a good relationship with Gongsun Zhan, if you want him to send troops, I'm afraid it will take some troubles......
"Twenty thousand gold!"
Mi Zhu stretched out another finger, like an upstart who had just hit a two-color ball last night, and he was a mess of righteousness.
"Don't drive, this is really not a matter of paying for money......" Kong Rong licked his dry lips and said weakly.
"Thirty thousand gold!" Mi Zhu's complexion did not change at all.
Young......
"Deal! I'll leave this matter to someone Kong, and persuade Tian Kai to send troops to Xuzhou, and someone Kong will take care of it! Rest assured, you are! β
Kong Rong reversed the attitude of the right talent, stood up, patted his chest vigorously, and asked the Xuzhou envoy group to guarantee the ticket.
Hearing that Kong Rong was relieved, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Mi Zhu turned his head and winked at the potter secretly.
The potter bowed to him to express his sincere gratitude!
Rich people are different, said Ju Hao.
In front of everyone, Kong Rong immediately took the slip, personally wrote a letter inviting Qingzhou Assassin Shi to send troops together, and sent someone to send it to the Qingzhou Governance Office.
After writing the letter, Kong Rong seemed to remember something important, and he said to the Tao Shang and others: "Prince Taiping, everyone...... Even though Kong and Tian Kai are able to fight, but I heard that Cao Cao's power has become greater and greater in recent years, and it is not comparable to leisure, and our Qingzhou soldiers are few and small, and there is almost no threat to Cao Cao......
Before he finished speaking, he heard the potter say directly: "Kong Beihai doesn't have to bother, Xuzhou is in danger now, and there is no need for unrelated people to wade into this troubled water." β
Kong Rong was directly stupid when he heard this.
Why did this kid refuse so simply?
He knows who I'm talking about, so he won't do it!?
Kong Rong asked Tao Shang tentatively: "Master Tao, the person recommended by Kong is indeed a hero, and he is not sincere!" Why don't you listen to his name, but if you don't listen to the name, you can't say it's a pity? β
The pottery merchant shook his head and said, "Kong Beihai's kindness, Tao has received it...... I really don't have to listen to the name. β
Don't listen or don't listen, Wang Ba recites the scriptures.
Kong Rong's face became embarrassed.
Mi Zhu also felt that the potter didn't even listen to the other party's name, and there must be something wrong with this.
Could it be that Kong Rong wants to say who the hero is, this kid already has a number in his heart?
Just as I wanted to speak for advice, outside the foyer, I saw a soldier from Beihai County running in in a hurry.
"Confucius-kun, it's not good! The scouts in front came to report, and Zhang Rao, the Yellow Turban thief, gathered thousands of people to attack Zhuxu County! Now the city of Zhuxu County has been lost! Please also ask the government to make a decision quickly! β
"What? Zhuxu County is lost? Kong Rong was taken aback, and his face suddenly became panicked.
