On February 13 of the third year of the first peace, Kang Peng sent a huge team from Chang'an and finally arrived in Luoyang, in order to exercise the newly formed navy, this team is both land and water, the Yellow River can not be a big boat, this fleet is composed of 1,500 small boats, led by Sun Ce and his fiancée Dong Wei 5,000 young sailors escorted, carrying food and cloth and other materials down the river, there is a small episode before the sailor departs, Dong Wei must follow Sun Ce to set off, but the Dong family is against it, feeling that the etiquette is not in line, Only Kang Peng, who has received a modern education, overrode public opinion and let Dong Xuan go, and at the same time, Sun Ce was grateful to Kang Peng.

The land route is composed of more than 2,000 four-wheeled carriages, protected by Zhao Yun and Ma Yun's green army, Lu Su led nearly a thousand wealthy merchants and magnates of Yong, and the two states, and the big families of the scholar clan took a large number of servants along the official road, many of which were still the original poor people of Luoyang, when they were in Luoyang, they did not cover their bodies, they did not eat their stomachs, they were all extremely poor households who had eaten a meal and a meal, and now, one by one, they all grew some meat, brightly dressed, and there were some money and food sent by Dong Zhuojun and the master when they set off, which can be said to be a return to their hometown.

In front of the west gate of Luoyang, Zhang Liao and Xu Huang had already forced the civil and military officials and the scholars and merchants of Luoyang out of the city to greet them, and some poor people were also "invited". At the beginning, the people of Luoyang merchants dared to be angry and dared not speak, but when the team of Chang'an arrived, the people of Luoyang couldn't help but be stunned, this is a team of luxury to the extreme, each carriage is inlaid with gold shawl, and the carts are all high-headed horses, Chang'an merchants are all dressed in silk and satin, covered with fox fur jackets, holding the two eight Jiao Niang in their hands, the red light is full of laughter, and the servants are also full of smiles, wearing brand new cotton jackets, looking very spiritual.

In contrast, the people of Luoyang are much shabby, after several robberies by Kang Peng, the financial resources of the Luoyang scholars have not yet recovered, most of the carriages of the scholars are in tatters, and the leather clothes they wear are also torn, and the merchants are not much better, the Central Plains has been in war for many years, their business is not sluggish at all, and they are already eating the old capital, so there is still financial wealth? In fact, even when they were prosperous, they could be compared with the team of the most wealthy merchants in the three states of Jiyong, Merge and Liang. The people of Luoyang were even more miserable, all of them had vegetables, skin and bones, and shivered in the cold wind in tattered clothes.

Ai Quan, the richest man in Chang'an, stood up in the car and laughed: "Little people, reward some money for these poor Luoyang people, seeing them shiver with cold, uncle, I feel uncomfortable." ”

Ai Quan's servants sang in unison, took out several large boxes of copper coins from the carriage, grabbed a lot of them and sprinkled them among the people of Luoyang on the side of the road, and the poor people of Luoyang on the side of the road saw this good thing, and immediately became a mess, and they fought for copper coins.

Ai Quan looked at the chaotic people of Luoyang, the small eyes on the white and chubby face narrowed into a slit with a smile, and said in his heart, grab it, grab it, and then follow me back to Chang'an, my table and chair workshop and paper workshop are short of workers, and the forest farm is also short of loggers, Dong Taishi is right, the people of Luoyang are going crazy poor this year, and they can buy a large number of manpower for a little money, and then earn back from them exponentially.

Tan Mi, the number one landowner in Chang'an, who has always looked down on Ai Quan, has also made a lot of money this year, so he is naturally unwilling to be robbed of the limelight by Ai Quan, and he also stood up and shouted: "Little people, you are full, do you want to watch the people of Luoyang starving?" ”

Tan Mi's servants, who had already rehearsed, also roared neatly, and took out baskets of steaming flatbreads, pot helmets, and steamed buns from the carriage, and threw them into the people of Luoyang, most of these Luoyang people were victims of Wang Xin's rebellion that night, and these days they rely on the court's relief to survive, and there is only one meal a day, and the court has not sent food to this day, all of them are hungry and crazy, and when they see the hot food in front of them, is there a reason not to desperately grab it?

Tan Mi looked at the scene that was even more chaotic than when Ai Quan threw the money just now, and smiled like a chrysanthemum, and said in his heart, eat, eat, this year, my family has opened more than 7,000 acres of dry land in Bingzhou, and Dong Taishi personally promised to give me drought-tolerant and high-yield god rice god fruit seeds for cultivation, and what is lacking is tenant farmers. And the big girl over there, don't look skinny, I bought her home and raised her for a few months, she is a big beauty who is alive and well, and she happens to be my eighteenth aunt......

Tan Mi was thinking about it, when a thunderous voice sounded behind him, "What's the taste of eating steamed bread?" Come here, Uncle Ma will give you meat to eat! ”

With this shout, the servant of Ma Zhan, the owner of Chang'an's largest mule and horse dealership, threw a pot of hot beef, mutton, chickens and ducks into the crowd of victims. What's more, Kang Peng also personally told him that this year, the official road between Chang'an and Wuwei will be renovated and widened, so that the cattle, sheep and horses produced in Liangzhou can be transported to Chang'an faster, and there is no shortage of anything on the rich prairie, only people who shepherd sheep and feed horses.

Although the other wealthy merchants of the Chang'an clan were not as arrogant as these few, they were not stingy, the owners of the textile shop gave hundreds of new clothes, the bosses of the Chang'an ship, the iron shop, the coal shop and the Qinglou also threw copper coins, and the other smaller clans also distributed a lot of grain, all for the manpower that had become cheap and cheap in Luoyang.

The victims of Luoyang were crazy with joy, and they all secretly sighed that the trip was worthwhile, but the scholars and merchants in Luoyang were first dumbfounded, and then sneered at these nouveau riche, but they were envious in their hearts, and at the same time, they all wondered, how could King Dong Yan return to Chang'an, how could he not attack these people? Snatching their family property, why do they all look richer?

Ma Ridan, Zhu Xi and other old ministers are also more and more depressed, when Dong Zhuo was raging in Luoyang, although the people of Luoyang lived in fear all day long, they could barely make a living, since Dong Zhuo left, the life of the people of Luoyang was not as good as day by day, and the life of the poor people of Chang'an suddenly went up to a new level, what is the reason for this? After thinking about it, Ma Ridan and other civil and military officials came to a conclusion that they didn't want to admit - they were too far from Dong Zhuo's statecraft.

At this time, Lu Su smiled and walked in front of Ma Ridan and the others, bowed down and said: "The villain Lu Su, on the order of the great Han Shang's father, Dong Taishi, led the merchants of Yong, He, and Liang to come to see the saint and meet all the adults. Lu Su added in his heart, by the way, take some people back, this year's Chang'an side has a shortage of manpower, next year I am afraid it will be more serious,

Ma Ridan smiled bitterly and saluted back: "Lord Lu is very polite, it is late today, please rest for one night, and see the saint again tomorrow." Ma Ridan pointed sideways at the city gate and said: "The old man has prepared a resting place for Lord Lu and Chang'an VIPs, please enter the city." ”

But Ma Ridan didn't expect it, Zhu Xian, Fu Wan and others didn't expect that those scholars in Chang'an had just entered the city, and they escaped with their noses covered one by one, for no other reason, after several turmoil, Luoyang City was full of pungent scorching smell, the foul smell of rotting corpses and the fishy smell after the ditch was blocked, and the Chinese people wanted to vomit.

Ai Quan covered his nose and shouted, "Damn, what the hell is this place?" Set up a tent for Lao Tzu, who lives outside the city. Tan Mi, who had always looked down on him, agreed with him for the first time, "Come on, bring the best spices, I'm about to vomit, quickly set up a tent and smoke the best sandalwood!" Ma Zhan simply crawled to the side and vomited, scolding while spitting, "! Is this a city where people live? It stinks worse than a pigsty! ”

These three people are here to show off, and they have been by their side, like Luoyang businessmen who inquired about their secrets to making a fortune, but they couldn't hold back their faces, and said in their hearts, what is stinky and beautiful? In the past, you were far worse than us, if it wasn't for King Dong Yan snatching all the gold and jade jewelry in Luoyang to Chang'an, would you be where you are today? That being said, the Luoyang scholars and merchants were still full of jealousy as the servants of the Chang'an merchants set up the cowhide tents, and the Eight Immortals table, Taishi chairs, double beds, flower stands, stoves, and wine and food were sent in an endless stream of tents......
