Chapter 271: The Wind Rises (7)

Jia Xu sat comfortably in his little world,

There were fires in the four corners of the house,

makes this room as warm as spring,

The windows of the house are open,

There is no wind outside today,

The sunlight shines into the house, adding a bit of warmth.

In the center of the room is a stove,

The flames licked a cauldron above,

The pot is boiling with boiling soup,

From time to time, slices of meat or vegetable leaves roll over,

was quickly picked up by Jia Xu and Tian Feng, who were waiting next to him, with slender chopsticks,

Dip in the prepared condiments,

Put it in your mouth while it's hot,

Chew on the big bit,

It looked so unhappy.

This is a very popular hot pot in later generations,

Lu Bu is not particularly picky about food on weekdays,

But Diao Chan likes to study this aspect,

Especially after pregnancy,

is also particularly concerned about eating,

This hot pot is exactly some time ago,

A thing that just came to mind,

Convenient practice,

Delicious taste,

Unique flavor,

Plus now this season,

The hot pot quickly became popular in Jinyang City.

Diao Chan, known as the economic brain of the state,

Naturally, I won't let go of this opportunity,

At the same time as the hot pot is launched,

Then the formula of the base and dipping sauce is firmly in hand,

Anyone who has eaten hot pot knows that

Hot pot is actually very simple,

But the most flavorful and attractive are these two ingredients,

With knowledge far beyond this era,

The base and dipping sauce of the sable cicada configuration,

Even if others want to imitate it, they can't help it.

Just relying on a small bag,

Diao Chan once again made a lot of money,

And also prepare to start serving hot pot in restaurants all over the state,

This time, innumerable pieces of silver,

As if beckoning to them.

With such a delicacy,

As gluttonous Jia Xu and Tian Feng,

Nature will not let go,

This Jia Xu even set up a hot pot here every once in a while and feasted on it.

Although the windows are open,

It's cold and snowy outside,

But in this house today,

The two and a half old men were still sweating profusely.

The door was gently pushed open,

The visitor was almost pushed out by the steam that tumbled in the house,

When I walked into the house, I saw clearly,

Jia Xu and Tian Feng,

is fighting fiercely with the delicacy,

The person who came didn't say a word,

Pick up the chopsticks on the side,

hurriedly joined the battle,

While grinning and stuffing the meat,

While complaining vaguely:

"Two gentlemen, you are too unrighteous to eat such delicious food without waiting for me."

Jia Xu snatched a piece of fatty mutton from Tian Feng's chopsticks,

glanced at Tian Feng triumphantly,

He opened his mouth and said to the comer:

"Yuan sighs, if you want to blame, you can only blame Tian Yuanhao, like a starving ghost reincarnated."

"You're embarrassed to say I'm ......"

Tian Feng glared at Jia Xu angrily,

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a larger piece of mutton,

Hurriedly ignored Jia Xu,

The eyes quickly copied the piece of mutton,

That steady and ruthless momentum,

I'm afraid that even the super-first-class generals are sighing to themselves.

After an hour of fierce fighting,

Jia Xu, Tian Feng, Gu Yong,

finally used the painful price of almost being blown up with a belly,

Wiped out four catties of mutton and two catties of beef,

There are a few vegetables, as well as three jars of Qiongyu liquid.

Jia Xu lay on the small collapse without any image,

A hand stroked the bulging belly.

Tian Feng rubbed his belly,

pacing back and forth in the room,

It is said to be exercising after meals.

Gu Yong was much more painful,

The ancients talked a lot about etiquette,

Just patronizing the food,

I haven't paid much attention yet,

I'm done eating at the moment,

In front of the two elders,

He had to sit upright,

It's just that the belly is swollen,

It's uncomfortably tight.

shook his body,

Changed to a slightly more comfortable position,

Gu Yong opened his mouth and asked:

"Strategist, what are your orders for summoning me? But there is news from before? ”

Jia Xu nodded,

Before I can answer,

But Tian Feng preempted the first way:

"What's the matter?"

Only then did Gu Yong explain:

"Some time ago, due to the purchase of the slave population, the lord ordered to contact the people of the Zhen family to be responsible for this matter. The Zhen family came to Jinyang once more than ten days ago. ”

Tian Feng nodded,

He also knows this,

Originally, this matter should have been carried out by Diao Chan,

It's just that the sable cicada is now waiting to give birth,

Don't overwork,

That's why he handed over the matter to Gu Yong to deal with,

Fortunately, Gu Yong in recent years,

has always been Diao's deputy in terms of economy,

learned a lot,

So everyone was very relieved.

Gu Yong then spoke:

"On the one hand, they came back with the news that things were going well. The first purchase of slaves and land, although small, made a good start, and the news spread. The Zhen family was working together with the Xianbei of the grassland, and they advanced from the east of the Hetao to the west, which could not only alleviate the resistance of the Qiang, Di, Xiongnu and other foreign races, but also facilitate our control. ”

Tian Feng nodded,

According to Gu Yong,

This is being carried out very well,

He couldn't help but ask suspiciously:

"In that case, what made you come to Wenhe for counsel?"

Tian Feng asked this very skillfully,

He was also suddenly recruited here by Jia Xu today,

But Jia Xu didn't mention the reason before,

At this time, I learned that Gu Yong was also called here by Jia Xu,

and heard what Gu Yong said,

Obviously, today Jia Xu asked the two of them to come here,

It is precisely because of this that

It needs to be consulted with both of them.

It's just that he didn't know about it before.

And Jia Xu's current identity is a military advisor,

is the first mastermind in front of Lu Bu,

The status should be above Tian Feng,

Although the two of them had a very good personal relationship,

I don't care about these statuses.

But if Tian Feng asked Jia Xu directly,

It is inevitable that there will be suspicions of trespassing or listening to information.

In their capacity,

is to never let yourself be in this situation,

Even if you know that it won't be passed out,

This is a kind of self-consciousness as a strategist.

Sure enough, Jia Xu finally opened his mouth at this time:

"Another reason why the Zhen family came here at that time was also to report that there was an abnormality on the grassland."

"Anomalies?"

Tian Feng was taken aback,

stopped,

Turned to look at Jia Xu.

Jia Xu waved his hand and said:

"It's not the kind of movement you think. According to Bu Dugen and Zhen Yao, recently many Central Plains merchants have been trading more frequently with the grassland. ”

Tian Feng previously thought that the grassland was changing,

It's said that Budugen wants to defect,

Since Lu Bu attacked the grassland,

Then they regarded the grassland as a bag,

Therefore, while developing the grassland,

also set up a lot of rules,

restricting the development of the grassland,

so that they could not deviate from the direction that Lu Bu had planned for them.

And now,

With the exchange between the state and the grassland,

Deeper and deeper,

The situation of interdependence and interdependence between the two sides is becoming more and more serious.

At this time,

Once there is a major change in the grassland,

is bound to affect the state side,

And now......

It's really a hair that moves the whole body.

"Most of their transactions are contraband that we have set up."

"Contraband?"

Tian Feng's face turned ugly,

"Then why not punish it immediately?"

Gu Yong hurriedly explained:

"It's not that there is no punishment, it's just that after catching a lot of small fish and shrimp, not only on our side, but even on Budugen's side, we have killed a lot of businessmen who have touched the line, but it is still repeatedly banned."

With that said,

Gu Yong stopped suddenly,

Even if Tian Fengxuan understood what he meant,

"Do you think someone is behind it, so you asked Jia Xu to investigate."

Gu Yong nodded,

Not talking.

Tian Feng turned his head to look at Jia Xu,

Jia Xu took a sip of tea and said:

"That's the way it is. During this time, the dark group also sent back news. ”

Tian Feng and Gu Yong couldn't help but perk up,

Waiting for Jia Xu's following,

Who knew that Jia Xu sold Guan Zidao at this time:

"Guess who's behind it?"

Although Tian Feng was angry with Jia Xu,

At this critical moment, the act of selling off the guanzi,

But he also had to follow his problem,

Contemplating and contemplating:

"Now the grassland passage is almost completely in our hands, and only Youzhou, Jizhou, Hetao and other places have the conditions to contact it. Although the Hetao area is geographically more closely connected with the grassland, the Hetao area is now in the hands of the Southern Xiongnu, although the Southern Xiongnu have recovered some vitality in recent years, but they may not be able to make such a big move. The only ones left are Youzhou and Hebei Prefecture, which are now in the hands of Yuan Shao, could it be Yuan Shao? But it's unlikely. ”

Jia Xu hasn't answered yet,

Gu Yong had already shook his head and denied this answer first:

"No, no, no. Although Yuan Shao has the conditions and financial resources, the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, tired of the emperor's grace, will not do this kind of thing. And although Yuan Benchu was so happy, he was still loyal to the imperial court, and he would not and disdained to do the thing that funded the grassland barbarians. ”

Gu Yong praised Yuan Shao here,

Tian Feng and Jia Xu nodded unconsciously,

Putting aside the lack of Yuan Shao's personal character,

He's a very good leader in his own right.

That's why he was able to inherit the lintel of the Yuan family as a concubine.

And for a time became the hegemon of the north.

The Yuan family has abundant assets,

simply disdains to rely on this means of smuggling,

Enrich your own pocket,

Even if it does,

They will also choose to cooperate with the wealthy families of the Central Plains,

And categorically will not go to trade with the steppe barbarians.

It's not just their Yuan family,

It's almost the entire Han family's wealthy family,

will abide by this rule,

Although the scholars pay attention to 'family and country, the world',

The interests of the family are the first priority.

But since the Han Dynasty,

The conflict between the steppe barbarians and the Han people intensified.

Stretching for hundreds of years and not stopping,

As the cornerstone of the establishment of the Han Dynasty, the scholar clan

For the repeated violations of the Great Han,

These aliens who infringe on the interests of the Han people do not have any favor.

Therefore, since the beginning of the Han Dynasty,

A ban was drawn up to prohibit the sale of large quantities of salt, iron and other items to the tribes of the steppe.

Similar to this betrayal of national interests,

Expand the behavior of foreign barbarians,

It became something that all the nobles would not do,

This is also a bottom line for scholars.

In the past, Su Wu shepherded sheep for 20 years,

and did not want to serve the Huns,

At the same time, it is also a side portrayal of this aspect,

Scholars may fight for power and profit,

And kill each other,

But he will never commit himself to a foreign race because he is greedy for life and afraid of death,

This is the Han Dynasty,

The integrity of the majority of scholars,

is similar to Wang Zhi, who is greedy for life and afraid of death,

It's not for nothing,

It's just that in comparison,

But it's only a small fraction of the minority.

People of this era,

is the person who really pays attention to national integrity,

and the slogan of national harmony on the lips of later generations,

In fact, the garbage who has done humiliating behavior,

It's like the difference between clouds and mud.

"And who else could do something like that?"

Jia Xu suddenly opened his mouth and asked Gu Yong:

"Yuan sighs, do you know Su Shuang?"

Gu Yong frowned,

Then I remembered this man,

Spoken:

"Su Shuang, I know, this person was born in Zhongshan, sells horses for a living, has a big business, and is also a giant in Jizhou. I've had a few dealings with this guy a few times since I accepted the economic business, and he's a very slippery veteran. Could it be that this has something to do with this person? If this is the case, it is reasonable, this person often has many contacts with Karasuma, Xianbei, Xiongnu and other tribes, and this person is a giant and has a lot of wealth, so it is not impossible for such a big deal to ......"

While talking about Su Shuang's situation,

Gu Yong's voice suddenly stopped,

Eyes opened wide,

Lost voice:

"It's broken, could it be that Liu Bei and Liu Xuande are behind it?"

Jia Xu smiled,

Fubeard nodded.

Tian Feng was a little dazed on the side,

He asked:

"How can this matter have anything to do with that Liu Xuande?"

Gu Yong turned his head and explained to Tian Feng:

"Mr. doesn't know, this Su Shuang is good friends with Zhang Shiping, another big man in Jizhou. Many years ago, at the beginning of the Yellow Turban Uprising, the two of them funded a person in Zhuo County to raise troops to quell the rebellion, so to speak, without the support of the two of them. It was impossible for this person to make a career at that time, and this person was Liu Bei and Liu Xuande. ”

Tian Feng knew about this for the first time,

Even if it is Gu Yong,

It's also because of taking over the economic side of things.

Knowing a little about these business tycoons,

I learned about this kind of thing.

Their faces became ugly,

The festival between Liu Bei and Lu Bu,

It's not that the two of them don't know,

Especially Tian Feng, who was the first to follow Lu Bu,

Even more knowing,

The first conflict was,

At the beginning of the tiger prison,

Liu Guanzhang and the three besieged LΓΌ Bu,

It's nothing,

At that time, there were a lot of people who fought against Lu Bu,

But the reckless man Zhang Fei's sentence at that time, 'three surnames of domestic slaves',

made Lu Bu very angry,

Today,

There are still some people who call Lu Bu this way behind their backs,

Since then, the beams of the two sides have been concluded,

Then when Lou Wu rebelled,

It was these three brothers who came with troops to take advantage of the fire to rob,

Although it didn't cause much damage,

But it also made Lu Bu's hatred for the three of them deeper,

And for some reason,

Lu Bu seemed to be very disgusted with that Liu Bei,

Although it is not explicitly stated,

But it is clearly felt by many.

And some time ago,

This Liu Bei seems to have a small move against Lu Bu again,

Plus today......

Just when the two were shocked by the news,

Jia Xu said surprisingly again:

"And in addition to them, I also saw the shadow of the Mi family in Xuzhou." Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Lu Bu Claw Book House of the Three Kingdoms" for free for the first time.
