Chapter 29: Zou Jing who didn't give up
"Hahaha...... It turned out that the elder brother was worried about this ......" Back in Zhuangzi, Liu Tao called the three of them and told them in detail what happened today. didn't want Zhang Fei to hear it, but he laughed.
After a pause, he said: "Actually, brother doesn't need to be like this, since you and I want to get righteous, then the four of us brothers are naturally of the same mind." I also thought that even if the credit was great, and the profit was shared among the four of us, it was estimated that it could only be regarded as average. But if it's all focused on the elder brother, then it's still a great credit! ”
"In other words......" Lu Yan looked at Liu Tao, "You will definitely be a county magistrate because of this credit, at least a county order, and it can't be a county magistrate or something." When the time comes, wouldn't it be easier for you, who are already in a high position, to promote a few more of us? ”
Guan Yu next to him nodded, obviously having such a plan.
Looking at the three of them, to be honest, Liu Tao was a little moved. At the beginning, he and Zhang Fei formed a friendship in order to make the relationship between each other and put on a more stable relationship. Lu Yan and Guan Yu's situation is similar, it is nothing more than tying up the two of them, so as not to be fooled by Liu Bei.
Who knows that these three people, because of the relationship of righteousness, began to gradually stop thinking about personal gains and losses, and proceed from the overall situation. Of course, the most important thing is the trust of the three of them in him. Feifu has absolute trust, but I'm afraid that I can't say such things.
"You three ......" Liu Tao choked up a little, "If you develop in the future, you will definitely not forget the three righteous brothers!" By the way, have the peach blossoms bloomed?! ”
"Haha, I was about to say that the peach blossoms have been blooming one after another recently, and at most three days, it is the most beautiful time!" Zhang Fei immediately smiled when he heard this, during this time, he basically went to see the situation in Taoyuan when he had time.
"In three days...... Lu Yan thought for a while, "the horizontal swords can be fully built, and they can be directly armed when the time comes!" ”
"The soldiers have finished their training, and they can go into battle to kill the enemy at any time!" Guan Yu came to join in the fun.
"Okay, three days later, the four of us will form a rebellion in Taoyuan, and then swear to go on the expedition!" Liu Tao said excitedly, "The fame will be taken immediately, and look at the great achievements we have made, and see who can hide it!" ”
It's just that in this era, the information is blocked, Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang went north to collect iron and horses, and they didn't come back for three months, but they didn't know that Zhang Jiao had rebelled. If you want to spread their affairs from Jizhou to Luoyang, I'm afraid it's not easy, and you still need someone to help them speak.
He thought of Lu Zhi for the first time, but considering that he might be framed by Zuo Feng, he had to make second-hand preparations!
On the other hand, after saying goodbye to Liu Tao, Zou Jing was somewhat disappointed, but mainly felt that Liu Tao did not give face. Question: Others use faith as an excuse, and he has nothing to say.
"General, in the afternoon, someone sent these four bottles of wine......" As soon as he returned to the place where he was staying, the entourage brought over the four bottles of wine, but it was Liu Tao who asked Zhang Fei to send them.
At first, he was worried that Zou Jing would take him in, and he was worried that his refusal would cause him dissatisfaction, so he did something to remedy it.
"It's just four bottles of wine, everyone divides it." At this moment, Zou Jing was not interested in drinking, so he replied casually.
"This wine ......is different," the attendant said cautiously, "I saw that the bottle was peculiar, so I asked someone, and I found out that this 'Jiuxian Brew' is actually a new wine launched by Zhangjia Zhuangzi in recent months." Known for its strong and mellow aroma, it seems that each of these four bottles of June cellar can be sold for 30 yuan......"
"Hiss......" Zou Jing gasped when he heard this, thirty times, four bottles are not one hundred and twenty times?!
He is a ruined captain, strictly a miscellaneous captain, but he also has a thousand stones. In an era of low grain production, money is not as good as food to retain its value. A thousand stone of Yulu, sold at this age, is about 220 to 300 yuan. As a result, four bottles of wine topped his income for most of the year, and he was really a little frightened.
"Could it be that this is immortal wine?" Zou Jing was a little dissatisfied, four bottles of wine each bottle of one pound or less, just this point will cost thirty times!
"It was said that it was because of the small production, so it was raised to this price." The entourage hurriedly replied, "This wine is brewed, and it has to be cellared for a period of time, saying that it was originally brewed, the fire is too big and the taste is not good, and the cellar is for three months, the fire subsides slightly, and it can barely be drunk." These four bottles were cellared for six months, and the fire was minimal, as for the cellar for one year...... Not yet. ”
"I see...... Come and try how good this wine is! When Zou Jing heard this, he was also a little nervous. In the end, it was sent by someone else, and no money was needed...... Think about it, why did the other party give himself these wines?
"Who's sending these wines?" Zou Jing hurriedly asked.
"It was the head of the Zhang family in Zhuo County, who came here with that Liu Tao, saying that he was sent to the general to pick up the wind and wash the dust according to his brother's orders." The attendant hurriedly replied.
"Brother?" Zou Jing frowned when he heard this.
"It's Liu Tao, my subordinates have inquired, and Liu Tao and the owner of the Zhang family seem to be sworn brothers." The attendant immediately replied.
"Oh, it was sent by Liu Tao......" Zou Jing nodded when he heard this, and then he began to drink. If Liu Tao sent it, he should have felt that he had rejected himself in the afternoon and was a little embarrassed, so he asked people to send these wines to make amends.
The wine is brewed in Zhangjiazhuang, and the cost is naturally not so high, but the value of this thing is terrible outside, thirty times a bottle!
A glass of wine fell into the stomach, only to feel that the wine was mellow and fragrant, and at the same time, a hot breath slowly rose in the abdomen, flowing through the limbs, indescribably comfortable, as if the fatigue accumulated from a few days of hurrying has dissipated a lot.
"Good thing......" Zou Jing looked at the wine and couldn't help but sigh, but he wanted to drink it again after drinking it, and he couldn't afford to drink it for thirty times. Is there any way to drink this wine all the way?
It can't be that the Zhang family can offer a recipe for winemaking, or occupy the Zhang family's winery. If you can really do that, it won't be his turn, there are so many high-ranking families in Zhuo County, I'm afraid that I will start it a long time ago.
"No, if Liu Tao is really a talent, he can't cheapen others!" Zou Jing drank another glass of wine and immediately made up his mind. There is only one premise, that is, Liu Tao must really be a talent, otherwise many things will not work well.
So in the early morning of the next day, on the one hand, he ordered his entourage to post a public list in Zhuo County to recruit soldiers, but on the other hand, he went directly to the Zhuangzi of the Zhang family outside the city. In the distance, you can hear bursts of shouts, which should be the sound of soldiers drilling.
"Just this momentum is an elite soldier!" Zou Jing is also the person who leads the troops, and when he hears this voice, he is full of fighting spirit, and he knows that this soldier is elite enough. Curious to get closer, he was stopped by the soldiers on duty outside.
"Military land, don't enter!" The soldiers in charge of the guard didn't know who was coming, but they only knew that there was an order from above, let one in, and they packed up their bedding and left.
"I'm Zou Jing, the captain of the school, you dare to stop me?" Zou Jing raised his eyebrows.
"This ...... I'm sorry, but there is an explanation above, no one is allowed to enter......" The two soldiers hurriedly said.
"It's a little interesting, isn't it possible to camp here?" Zou Jing was not angry when he heard this, but became more curious.
