Cao Cao admired Pan Feng very much, but did not let go of the gentle means to him, Pan Feng since he arrived in Luoyang, Cao Cao treated him very well, a small banquet for three days, a big banquet for five days. The means are constantly changing. A few days later, ten beauties were sent to serve Pan Feng. Pan Feng was sent into the inner house and ordered to serve the second sister-in-law.

Another day, Cao Cao saw that Pan Feng's body was huge and tall, and the black and gold robe he was wearing had many sewing holes, that is, he personally took his body and took a collar of a different brocade silk combat robe as a gift. Pan Feng didn't dare to say anything, so he accepted it, but he wore the new robe under the robe and still used the old robe to cover it.

Cao Cao came to see Pan Feng one day, and when he saw that he was still wearing an old robe, his eyes couldn't help but narrow, and his heart was unhappy again, but he smiled on the surface.

"Why is Musou so frugal?"

"A certain is not thrifty. The old robe was given by the righteous brother, and a certain person wore it as if he saw his brother's face, and he did not dare to forget the old gift of his brother with the new gift of the prime minister, so he wore it on it. ”

Pan Feng's words seemed to be cutting Cao Cao's heart, Cao Cao's stomach was full of anger, but he still suppressed it and sighed in his mouth.

"Peerless is truly a righteous man!"

Pan Feng has always adhered to his heart, although Cao Cao gave him frequent gifts and treated him with kindness, it was still difficult to shake Pan Feng's loyalty. Cao Cao was very helpless, he could only use time to grind, perhaps expecting Liu Bei to be killed by the pursuers he sent, Pan Feng was desperate, and then wanted him to treat him as a national soldier, and served his life under his command with sincerity.

But Cao Cao didn't know that Pan Feng had already secretly sworn that once he learned of Liu Bei's bad news, he would definitely be accompanied by the underworld according to the oath.

During this year, Cao Cao took Nanyang and Runan, exterminated the southern giant crocodile Yuan Shu, and then captured the East China Sea, planned to seize Guangling, and won the land of Xuzhou, and his power expanded rapidly. And Yuan Shu and Liu Bei, the two henchmen, one died in ambush, the other fled outside, Cao Cao's rear was stable, and he immediately suspended his troops and began to prepare for a shocking war with the northern giant Yuan Shao, not to mention for the time being.

Cao Cao was unstoppable, and his feats shocked the world. In Hedong Anyi, it is quite calm.

In the Anyi General's Mansion, Wen Hangui is the hussar general, and according to the Han Dynasty, the mansion can be expanded from the Han Dynasty to show his prestige. At this point, Zhou Long first asked Wen Han to renovate his old mansion, expand several courtyards, and build a music garden, a martial arts hall, and several study rooms. And because Wenhan sits down the capital chain is quite rich, gambling houses, liquor and so on can earn a huge amount of money every year, and Wenhan cooperates with merchants from all over Hedong, there are many shops in the silk and satin smelting industry, although the annual income can not be compared with the income of gambling houses and liquor industry, but it is also quite considerable. In addition, the policy of Tuntian is on track in Bingzhou and Hedong, and every autumn harvest time, there are countless grain stores. In troubled times, rice and grain were valuable, and Wenhan stored most of them, sold them in a small half, and got a lot of gold and silk every year.

In this regard, Wen Han can be said to be the most profitable warlord prince in today's troubled times, and I am afraid that in a few years, Wen Han's financial resources will reach the point where he is rich and rival the country.

However, Wen Han is not an exploiter for the rich. He was well aware of the principle of taking from the people and benefiting the people, and built academies and martial arts halls in Bingzhou and Hedong, vigorously cultivating people from poor families, and at the same time sending more grain to the displaced people who had been displaced by the war on the border of Hedong and Bingzhou. As a result, more and more displaced people flocked to Bingzhou and Hedong, especially in the past two years, the population of both places has risen sharply, and finally it has reached the point where every city is overcrowded.

In order to relieve the pressure of the counties, Wen Han consulted with his subordinate adviser Zhong Xuan. Zhong Xuan is worthy of Wang Zuozhi's talent, he suggested that Wen Han Shi should go west, first persuade the merchants under his jurisdiction, rush to Beidi, Xinping to set up business, and anyone who obeys the order to rush can be tax-exempt for five years, and can get a considerable amount of money to do trial business first.

Wen Han listened, was pleasantly surprised, and Zhong Xiang hit it off, immediately acted according to the plan, and sent Zhong Xiang and Wang Lang to Hedong and Bingzhou to persuade the merchants, although these businessmen heard such a good policy, the reaction was very different, some businessmen saw the disaster of the war in Yongzhou, and the forces of all parties were complicated, and they were unwilling to let go of the current thriving family background, and went to Beidi and Xinping to start again. Some businessmen found that this was a good time to make a fortune, and they believed that Wenhan, a giant who was rare in a century, believed that he would be able to win Yongzhou sooner or later, just like the former merger of states, and bring stability to all parts of Yongzhou, so they rushed to Beidi and Xinping to start working together to revive the business of the two counties.

As for Zhong Xuan's westward journey, business revival is only the first step, and the most important second step is just beginning. The businessmen who came from Bingzhou and Hedong have made a lot of money in recent years, plus the funding of Wenhan, so they do not have to be tied up in the use of funds, and under Zhang Xiu's lobbying, the wealthy families and businessmen in Beidi and Xinping are willing to cooperate with these businessmen who came to invest in other places, after all, with the heavy investment of these businessmen from other places, their hometown will be prosperous in a few years.

And as these people expected, under the heavy investment of these foreign merchants, in just three months, the cities of Beidi and Xinping were full of merchants from all walks of life, and taverns, grain houses, and silk mills could be seen everywhere in every street and alley, but because of the two counties of Beidi and Xinping, they had been troubled by the war for a long time, and the people were all shy in their pockets, so the merchants had little income.

However, Zhong Xuan, a peerless talent, could not have expected such a situation to appear, and quickly came up with a strategy to deal with it. The people of Beidi and Xinping are poor, but the people of Hedong are wealthy, Wen Han under the advice of Zhong Xuan, and implemented a policy, ordering the people of all counties in Hedong to get land according to the population of each household. As soon as this policy came out, there was an uproar in all parts of Hedong, and it can be seen that since the opening of the Han Dynasty, most of the land has been held in the hands of the imperial court and wealthy families, and it is impossible for ordinary people to get an inch of land. And this is different from the land allocated by Tuntian, which is all wasteland outside the city, and what Wenhan is now divided into is the land inside the city, and the value of the land inside and outside the city cannot be compared at all. In addition, Wen Han's repeated policies are not just a signal to the people of the world that he has absolute confidence that he will seize Yongzhou.

Once Wen Han succeeds in winning the title of Yongzhou, with the trend of his policy implementation in recent years, he will definitely implement tuntian in Yongzhou, so that the population of Yongzhou will soar sharply, and the land value of Yongzhou city will rise rapidly, and the value will be higher and higher in the future. In this way, if you can get the land of Yongzhou City, it can be said that you can be blessed for three generations!

At this point, as soon as Wenhan's policy came out, the people in Hedong almost flocked to it, and their families flocked to Beidi and Xinping. Of course, there are also some people who are accustomed to life in Hedong and do not want to leave their hometowns and continue to live in Hedong.

With thousands of Hedong people flocking to Beidi and Xinping, the business in the two counties was soon able to run smoothly, and in less than half a year, the two counties of Beidi and Xinping were the most populous and prosperous counties in Yongzhou.

Subsequently, Wen Han promulgated the same policy in Bingzhou, and the people of Bingzhou also rushed to go, but compared with the people of Hedong, the prosperity of the people of Bingzhou can only be said to be more than enough, but some livelihood consumption can still be afforded. Therefore, Wen Han first asked the people of Hedong to bring up the prosperity of Beidi and Xinping counties, and then promulgated a policy to make the people of the state move to the two counties.

Of course, the rapid development of the two counties of Beidi and Xinping is due to the two benevolent policies of Wen Han, which can be said to be beneficial to business and the people, but for Wen Han, in the first three years, in addition to relieving the population pressure of Hedong and Bingzhou, and bringing up the prosperity of the two counties under his jurisdiction, Wenhan can almost be said to have no benefit, and he has no tax income, and the government land is divided by the people of Hedong and Bingzhou. However, Wen Han has never been a short-sighted person, as long as the north and Xinping are prosperous, the people in the counties of Yongzhou will naturally flock to come, and when the population increases dramatically, Wen Han will be able to quickly recruit a large number of recruits in Beidi and Xinping.

And more importantly, Wen Han can bring the prosperity of Beidi and Xinping, and his reputation will definitely rise rapidly in the hearts of the people in the counties of Yongzhou. The people of Yongzhou do not want to be under the jurisdiction of Wenhan, and they welcome the Lord. In this way, in the future, if Wenhan wants to raise troops to conquer the counties of Yongzhou, he will be able to get twice the result with half the effort!

Wen Han vigorously developed the prosperity of Beidi and Xinping in Yongzhou, which made Ma Teng and Han Sui uneasy, and a year ago, Wen Han was appointed as the pastor of Yongzhou according to the emperor's edict, and became the master of Yongzhou justifiably. However, Ma Teng and Han Sui turned a deaf ear to this, and did not send a letter of congratulations, and at the same time, Ma Teng sent heavy troops to guard Feng Yi and Jingzhao counties, and Han Sui also sent heavy troops to guard the Tongguan area, and they were all on guard against Ma Teng and Wen Han.

Ma Teng and Han Sui didn't seem to recognize Wen Han as the Yongzhou pastor, and Wen Han didn't see any movement, let alone send a letter to Ma Teng and Han Sui to claim the territory they occupied in Yongzhou. On the surface, the three forces are temporarily peaceful, but in fact, they are secretly harboring their own ghosts and taking precautions.

Moreover, although Ma Teng and Han Sui had friction because of Li Xuan's incident, the two of them had a tendency to join forces against Wen Han because Wen Han got the position of Yongzhou pastor.

However, Wen Han didn't seem to be in a hurry to tear his face with these two people, he reorganized his army, and at the same time trained recruits in Hedong and Bingzhou counties, and then during this year, his energy was almost invested in the development of Beidi and Xinping.

In this year, Wen Han seems to be busy, but in fact, almost all the affairs of Beidi and Xinping are handled by Zhong Xuan, and Xi Long, Wang Lang, and Zhang Xiu are complementary to each other. On weekdays, Wen Han only needs to make decisions about the direction of some big decisions.

So, what is Wen Han doing most of the year?

In the mansion of the Hussar General of Anyi, Wen Han's face was full of soft color, his eyes were full of happiness and satisfaction, he quietly looked at the white and chubby baby in his wife Cai Yan's arms, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up again. The baby seemed to feel Wen Han's gaze and giggled, which was very cute.

This white and fat baby is Wen Han's son, Wen Shun. Wen Han still remembers very clearly the scene on the day his son was born.

A year ago, Anyi City was suddenly covered with red clouds, and it was daytime, but because of the dense red clouds, the city was densely covered with dim red colors, so that the people in the city were not frightened.

At that time, Wen Han had just rushed back to Anyi, and under the city gate, he heard Zhou Long hurriedly say that Cai Yan was about to give birth, Wen Han was so anxious that his face changed greatly, and without saying a word, he rushed to the mansion in the city.

Wen Han hurried to arrive, and outside his and Cai Yan's bedroom in the mansion, it was already overcrowded, and the horse trainers, Zuo Ci, Tong Yuan, Zhong Xuan and others were waiting anxiously outside the door. Wen Han hurriedly stepped over, followed by Guan Yu, Xu Huang, and Zhou Long.

"You stinky boy, you only care about fighting all day long!! Yan'er will be born, why did you only come back at this time!! ”

As soon as the horse trainer saw Wen Han, he opened his mouth to scold.
