Chapter 155: Another County
As he spoke, he turned his head to Qin Fan and said, "Lord, you said that you have 10,000 taels of silver, and you can't lack any of them." ”
Zhuge Jin shook his head and chuckled.
At this time, a young man in a wide official uniform walked in, and as soon as he entered, he hugged his fists and said, "Cangcao Peng Lusu has seen all of you. ”
"Excuse me, Zijing, how much silver is in the warehouse this time?"
Qin Fan painted cakes for him, but he didn't say much, and he wasn't sure if there were any.
"It would be nice to be more than 5,000."
Gu Yong said secretly in his heart.
Before Lu Su could speak, he saw a young man in front of him turn his head to look at him suddenly, he subconsciously took a step back, and then realized that his action was inappropriate, and hurriedly laughed twice to hide his embarrassment, and bent down and said: "Back to Xiangguo, a total of 10,000 and 8,000 taels of silver." ”
Zhuge Jin's brush "clicked" and fell on the case, and the ink threw him off.
Gu Yong plucked out his ears, "What did you say?" Say it again. ”
Lu Su repeated: "There are a total of 10,000 and 8,000 taels of silver in the warehouse. ”
Gu Yong got up suddenly, and the bench behind him made a squeaky sound, startling all three of them.
"Let's go, take me to see it."
Gu Yong's face turned red, he couldn't hold back his excitement, he didn't care if Qin Fan was still there, and pulled Lu Su who was in a daze and went out.
Qin Fan came back to his senses, looked at Zhuge Jin who was hurriedly picking up pen and ink, and said loudly: "Ziyu, who is this Lu Su?" ”
"The lord said that Zi Jing."
Zhuge Jin cleaned up the stain and said casually: "This kid is a little talented, and he came over to ask for an official, Yuan Si and I thought it was interesting, so we took the test and taught him, and found that he was not bad at learning, so he let him be Cangcao Peng temporarily." ”
Not only is he talented, Lu Su's reputation is much better than yours.
Talent ran into his own bowl, and he must not be allowed to fly.
Qin Fan couldn't help but be excited, a small Cang Cao Peng obviously couldn't reflect the value of Lu Su.
Qin Fan suddenly felt that his Lujiang County was really too small and too small, and the talents were crowded, and no matter where he put it, he felt that he was Qu Cai.
One more county!
Qin Fan beckoned, "Bring the map." ”
"Hey."
Zhuge Jin did not doubt it, and hurriedly took a map and handed it to Qin Fan.
Qin Fan looked at it carefully for a while, and suddenly asked, "Who is the Taishou of Yuzhang County?" ”
Zhuge Jin replied: "It's Zhou Shu." ”
"Zhou Shu? To whom is this person heading? ”
Zhuge Jin shook his head, "Ziyu doesn't know, but according to the records, he was personally appointed by the Han Emperor. ”
Well, since Liu Xie personally made the appointment, there is a chance to convince.
What made Qin Fan happy was not that Zhou Shu didn't take refuge in anyone, but that Yuzhang County was too big, almost twice the size of Lujiang County.
There are only ten counties in Lujiang County, but there are twenty-one large and small counties in Yuzhang County.
"Do you have any information about Yuzhang County?"
Zhuge Jin looked for a while, handed it to Qin Fan and said, "The information is limited, the lord will just look at it." ”
Qin Fan took the information, roughly approximated, and flipped through to the population he most cared about.
It was found that this Yuzhang County had a population of 4.5 million households and more than 1.6 million people.
Qin Fan was surprised: "Why are there so many of us in this Yuzhang County?" ”
Zhuge Jin said with a smile: "Because the place is big, but most of these places are not good places, although the population is large, many of them are Shanyue people." These people are wild and untamable, and they are not easy to deal with. ”
Yamagoe people?
Qin Fan's head suddenly popped up some news, during the Three Kingdoms, Shu Wei often conquered, but Wu only had a few unsuccessful expeditions.
The most important reason for this is that there are many mountains and rivers in Wudi, and a large number of Shanyue people live. These Shanyue people often caused trouble for Wudi, causing Sun Quan to go to the expedition with peace of mind.
Qin Fan pondered, Zhuge Jin didn't dare to speak, just looked at him silently.
Qin Fan thought for a while and said to Zhuge Jin: "Ziyu, go and call Yuan Si." ”
"Whoa."
......
"My lord, where did you get so much silver?"
Gu Yong looked excited, and laughed: "With this silver, it is enough for me to do a lot of things." ”
Qin Fan waved his hand and said, "Let's not mention this matter first, let me ask you which county you said you were going to last time?" ”
"Which county?"
Gu Yong scratched his head, quickly understood, and said, "Yuzhang County, Zhou Shu, I know this person. ”
Speaking of this, Gu Yong stepped aside and took out some information and handed it to Qin Fan.
"Lord, look at it, if we can get Yuzhang County, we can expect a big event."
Qin Fan didn't pick up the information handed over by Gu Yong, but grabbed Gu Yong's arm and said, "Yuan sigh, I have to convince Zhou Shu no matter what this time." Even if you are not convinced, you have to find a way to convince. ”
Gu Yong was slightly positive, and then nodded solemnly and said, "Please rest assured, Yuan Si understands." ”
Qin Fan advised: "When you go, take Xu Chu with you, he can help a lot." ”
Gu Yong bowed slightly.
With Lujiang County and Yuzhang County, it has a population of more than two million. That's not a small amount. When the time comes, it will be more convenient to raise soldiers and horses.
"Lord, do you know why I set my target in Yuzhang County?"
Qin Fan thought for a moment and said, "Yuzhang has a lot of mountains, it is not a good place, Yuan Si has other plans?" ”
Gu Yong stroked his palms and smiled: "One is that I know Zhou Shu. But this is only a small reason, and more importantly, the lord just said, because there is Shanyue. ”
Qin Fan looked puzzled.
Gu Yong smiled and said: "In the eyes of others, Shanyue is a bad thing, but in our opinion, Shanyue is a good thing." ”
"Why?" Qin Fan still didn't understand.
"We can recruit troops in a bright way, let's just say that we are attacking Shanyue."
Gu Yong smiled slightly, and said eloquently: "The Shanyue people are extremely fierce and have a large number of people, when the time comes, find a plan to let them move down the mountain, and our population can be greatly replenished, which can be counted in one fell swoop." ”
"Lord, you say, is this Yuzhang County a good place?"
Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, there is danger and opportunity, everything can be answered differently if you look at the problem from the other side, Qin Fan admired Gu Yong very much, and said with emotion: "Yuan sigh really has Wang Zuo's talent." ”
Gu Yong hurriedly said modestly, and said: "Without further ado, I decided to go to Yuzhang County tomorrow to have a look, if not, I will also stay there for two days to find out the situation." ”
Qin Fan nodded and said, "Pay attention to safety, by the way, what has Sun Ce of Wujun done recently?" ”
"The counties of Yangzhou are very peaceful, and there has been no war recently."
"Pay close attention to Sun Ce's side, once there is a move, we can also recruit troops in a bright way."
The strength component of Yangzhou's side is too complicated, Qin Fan has to be careful, otherwise he will be attacked by a group if he is careful.
After talking for a while, Qin Fan thought of Lu Su again, if this Yuzhang County was defeated, he had the heart to let Lu Su serve as the Taishou.
It's just that if Zhou Shu surrenders to sincerity, it is obvious that Taishou can only be Zhou Shu.
