Chapter 67, Blessings

Linyu Wharf was originally a transportation hub connecting western Liaoning and Liaodong sea roads, and now it has become an important hub between Youzhou and Pingzhou. At the same time, it is also one of the several important ports connected by Youzhou to the southern state and county.

By the time Zhang Hao and Fang Zhu arrived at the dock, the cargo ship coming from the sea had already begun to unload.

"Brother Mingde, it's been a long time." A man in a gorgeous dress walked over and greeted Zhang Hao with a smile.

When Zhang Hao saw the visitor, he said happily: "Zizhong? What are you doing here? "The one who came was Mi Zhu.

"Isn't it almost the end of the year, from the beginning of this year to now, I haven't seen Mingde for a whole year, and I miss it very much. That's why I'm coming to you. ”

Listening to Mi Zhu's jokes, Zhang Hao couldn't laugh, but he also said half-jokingly: "Since the beginning of the rebellion, I have been fighting abroad all year round, and I have no time to take care of anything else, but I have neglected my relatives and friends." ”

"Hahaha, Mingde is busy with major events in the world, and he can't even take care of his wife and children, let alone me."

Zhang Hao introduced Fang Zhu and Mi Zhu to each other: "Let me introduce, this is my brother-in-law Fang Zhu Fang Xiuwen, who is currently my army member and long history." This is Mi Zhu Mi Zizhong, a wealthy businessman in Xuzhou and a wealthy man in the world. ”

Mi Zhu's eyes looking at Fang Zhu were a little intriguing, and he said with a smile on his face: "Zizhong has seen Brother Xiuwen. ”

Fang Zhu was a little unclear about Mi Zhu, so, it was the first time he saw him, what was going on with this look?

"Xiuwen is also a long-admired Zizhong name."

Zhang Hao asked: "Speaking of which, Xuzhou has also been attacked by the Yellow Turban, but it seems that Zizhong is fine, which is really good." ”

"That's true, fortunately, Lord Thorn Shi Taoqian has dealt with it well, only a few cities have been affected by the war, and Xuzhou is the place with the least loss in the world."

Mi Zhu changed his words and said hello to Zhang Hao: "I suddenly remembered that I haven't congratulated Mingde yet." Mingde was so young, he made many military exploits, was worshiped by the Son of Heaven, and was a marquis for the Son of Heaven. ”

Zhang Hao smiled bitterly: "What is there to congratulate, I am almost sad to death, and I have encountered big trouble before I take office." If I had known this, I should have rejected the appointment in the first place. ”

Mi Zhu smiled and asked, "But the trouble of relocating the people?" ”

"How did Zizhong know?" Zhang Hao was a little surprised, "It's really to settle the people who were relocated to Pingzhou." Now that they are gathered in Linyu, the slightest carelessness will lead to great disaster. ”

In fact, this catastrophe is coming, but Mi Zhu has nothing to do with this matter, and Zhang Hao doesn't want to implicate him.

Mi Zhu had a smile on his face.

As the world's leading wealthy businessman, especially since his business also covers all parts of the north of the Central Plains, he can naturally easily obtain information.

He not only knew that Zhang Hao shined in this war and was promoted to the rank of knight, but also knew the news that the Son of Heaven would move the prisoners of war to Pingzhou because of Zhang Hao's advice.

When Mi Zhu learned that a large number of prisoners of war had gathered outside Linyu City, with his keen intuition, he immediately thought that Zhang Hao might be in trouble.

The deeds of sages such as Bai Gui, Fan Li, and LΓΌ Buwei have told their juniors a truth: the rewards of sending charcoal in the snow are far greater than the icing on the cake.

Most people only understand the latter, but judging from Mi Zhu's investment in Liu Bei in history, he is one of the few former.

Mi Zhu clapped his hands, and a servant took the goods off the ship, took a bag and put it in front of Zhang Hao.

He smiled and said: "This is my gift to Mingde for promotion, maybe it will solve Mingde's current difficulties." ”

Zhang Hao's heart moved, looked at Mi Zhu and said with some surprise: "Could it be?" ”

The servant opened the bag, which was full of grain.

Zhang Hao and everyone behind him all had their eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Zizhong, are all on this boat?" ”

Mi Zhu nodded: "There are a total of 100 thousand stone merchant ships, and 100,000 stone grain has been transported this time, and it will be transported back and forth in the future, with a total of 1 million stones." ”

This number shocked everyone present.

Zhang Hao asked, "Where did Zizhong get so much food?" ”

"Oh, in addition to the grain I have hoarded at home, there are also those bought from the Xuzhou government at a premium, and most of them are wheat."

Mi Zhu smiled: "I know that Mingde has the technology to make pasta, so I bought all these grains that people don't look down on, and sent them to you." ”

"This gift is too valuable, I..."

Fang Zhu pulled Zhang Hao from behind, and Zhang Hao immediately changed his words: "I thank Zizhong for the relocated people, I will definitely let everyone know Zizhong's benevolence." ”

"It's just a false name, everything is about the people."

"But in this case, Zizhong has also suffered a great loss, right?"

Zhang Hao accepted the sky-high gift, a little embarrassed, and wanted to compensate him as much as possible.

"No more, no more, all the family property is just nine out of ten. It's a shame to say that some of this grain is still old rice from previous years. After all, the state and county are not rich, and they will not buy me all the new rice. ”

"It's okay to do it, it's okay to take care of these things now, just eat the dead."

Good guy, with Mi Zhu's net worth, he has invested nearly 100 million yuan to buy these grains, which is no different from bankruptcy.

Zhang Hao thought for a while and said to Mi Zhu: "I have four counties under the rule of Pingzhou, and Liaodong County still lacks the post of county guard, I want to nominate Zizhong to serve on the table, what does Zizhong think?" ”

It has been almost four years since Yang Zhong's death, and Liaodong Taishou is still unresolved.

Originally, Zhang Hao wanted to do it himself, but now it is a thank you gift to Mi Zhu.

"Then I'll thank Master Thorn Shi, hahaha." Mi Zhu agreed without hesitation.

Zhang Hao saw that Mi Zhu agreed, and felt a little more comfortable in his heart. What he gave was much more than what Liu Bei gave him in history.

His so-called General An Han is above the general of Zhuge Liang's military division, but it is an idle position, which is comparable to the high authority of a county.

However, Mi Zhu also made other requests: "I still have a reluctant request." ”

"Zizhong, please say, I have nothing to refuse."

"I have a little sister who has just passed the year of Ji Ji, and I would like to be the concubine of Mingde Pillow."

Fang Zhu suddenly realized, I see.

Zhang Hao was anxious: "How can this be, I already have a wife's room, so I am too wronged by Sister Ling." There are countless talents in the world, and there must be a good match. ”

Mi Zhu said: "But there are only a handful of young talents like Mingde in the world. With Mingde's current status, he can marry another wife, I asked my little sister, and she agreed. ”

"But... But..."Zhang Hao couldn't think of any other reason.

He glanced at Fang Zhu and remembered Fang Wan, so he immediately said, "This matter still needs Mrs. consent......

"It doesn't matter." Fang Zhu interjected, "The so-called eldest brother is like a father, I agreed on her behalf." ”

Mi Zhu said happily: "The little sister is on the boat at the moment, I will go and take her next, and Luo Mingde will take care of her in the future." ”

Looking at Fang Zhu's encouraging eyes, Zhang Hao had no choice but to agree: "Okay...... Good. ”
