Chapter Sixty-Eight: The Elusive Mi Zhu

"General Wang, wait a minute!" At the gate of the State Pastoral Mansion, Liu Yi frowned and grabbed Wang Wei.

"Brother Bo Yuan, what's the matter?" Wang Wei wondered.

"The money for the construction of the attic has not yet been paid off for me!" Liu Yi kept a smile on his face and said, "The dignified state pastor's mansion won't be greedy for my money, right?" ”

"Go and get the steward in charge." Wang Wei frowned, this matter is not in his hands, he was only responsible for sending Liu Yi out, why did he still ask him for money?

And a person who looks very elegant, why does he always talk about mundane things like money? Aren't Baume & Mercier ashamed to talk about money?

"Your money should go to Uncle Liu Huang to ask for it, he recommended Er to wait here to build an attic." The steward stared at Liu Yi with a somewhat unsightly expression.

"This is a matter between the State Pastoral Mansion and Uncle Liu Huang, but since I am working for the State Pastoral Mansion, this salary should be settled in the State Pastoral Mansion, and Brother Zizhong did not say at that time that this matter would be settled by Uncle Liu Huang." Liu Yi still maintained a smile on his face, but in this smile, there was a little less sincerity, more of a formulaic smile.

The steward was a little gloomy when he heard this: "This matter still needs the consent of the state pastor." ”

"Okay, let me disperse, and tell people everywhere in the city that there are people in the state governor's mansion who are full of money and greedy for money." Liu Yi's smile disappeared completely when he heard this, is this clearly a procrastination trick, whether it is Jingzhou Mu or Cai Mao or even Wang Wei, he can't afford to provoke him, but the steward in front of him is different, to put it bluntly, he is a house slave, with Liu Biao's person, it is impossible to use any means for this little money, Cai Mao is the same, it must be that the steward in front of him wants to give money to the ink.

Coming to this era, I also have some understanding of the temperament of celebrities and gentlemen in this era, face is definitely a more important thing than money, and they can't afford to lose this person if they don't give money when they ask someone to do their work.

"You ......" The steward was furious when he heard this, and glared at Liu Yi, but although Liu Yi is more gentle on weekdays, and he doesn't care about things that are not too important, but when he encounters this kind of thing involving interests, he will not back down with you, and the other party wants to use his power to oppress people, then Liu Yi will find a way to cut off his rights, if it really spreads, even if Liu Yi can't get up when he is sick, Cai Mao can't protect him for his reputation, after all, in the end, he is just a house slave.

The steward has been in the state pastoral mansion for so many years, and naturally knows this truth, and stared at Liu Yi indignantly for a long time, but he couldn't say half a word, seeing Liu Sandao and the others packing up their things and running around, he hurriedly stopped: "Wait, Uncle Liu Huang and my lord are both relatives of the Han family, and in the final analysis, this matter is also done for our state pastor's house, and this money will be paid by our state pastor's house, and wait a while!" ”

The words almost burst out between his teeth.

"It won't be too forced." Liu Yi looked at the steward and said with a smile.

"No...... No! The steward looked at Liu Yi's smiling face, and couldn't wait to kick it up, 50,000 yuan, for the state pastor's mansion, is a decimal number, but for him, it is a windfall, I originally thought that these people were new to the city, and they were a group of honest people on weekdays, who knew that they were so tricky.

Soon, the 50,000 yuan was carried out by the two guards, Liu Yi nodded at Liu Sandao, and motioned for him to count the number, the discipline of the person in charge in front of him was shattered in his eyes, and he couldn't believe it.

Just in front of this steward, it took more than two hours to count the 50,000 yuan, and this kind of extreme distrust showed that the steward's face naturally would not look good.

"Sir, the number is right." Liu Sandao wiped the sweat from his head, and squatted here for two hours to count the money, which was also a kind of torture and torment for him.

"Then I'll leave here, if you have any good business in the future, please come and find me!" Liu Yi nodded, hugged his fists at Wang Wei and the steward, and then left straight away with the people.

"Humph!" The steward snorted coldly, and Tie blued his face and walked away.

"General Wang, farewell!" Liu Yi didn't care, just bowed to Wang Wei.

"Farewell, if there is a need in the future, this general will go to Guizhai to buy weapons and armor in person." Wang Wei nodded, although he was a little funny about this farce that could not be put on the stage, but Liu Yi's trip to Xiangyang also proved his worth, and Wang Wei's army also hoped to have a batch of weapons and armor like Liu Bei, but he was just a general, and he didn't count if he changed the purchase of armor.

"Then I'll wait for General Wang." After Liu Yi finished speaking, he led the people straight back to the post house.

"Sir, how do you pack your bags? Stay a few more days? When he returned to the post house, he saw Liu Yi starting to pack up, and Liu Sandao was a little reluctant.

Seeing the prosperity of Xiangyang, he really wanted to stay a few more days and have a good stroll, the Qinglou in the city was said to be a paradise on earth by those scholars, and the sisters-in-law in it were all fairy-like characters, and he had long wanted to see it.

"It's been almost a month since I came out, and it's time to go back." Liu Yi shook his head, what are you playing, the most important thing now is to take a small life, the vanguard of the Cao army has hit Xinye, in case Cao Ren's careful eye comes to Xiangyang to turn over old accounts with himself, what should he do? Let's run.

"Then ......" Liu Sandao also wanted to say that at least tonight I went to the Qinglou to be chic, after all, I made so much money, and it was quite heavy to bring it back, but I was interrupted by a knock on the door.

"Sir, Mr. Mi Zizhong asks to see you!" A soldier came in from outside the door and bowed to Liu Yi.

"Brother Bo Yuan is really a genius of the Mo family, and an attic has been built in less than a month." Liu Yi wanted to refuse, but outside the door, Mi Zhu's hearty laughter had already come.

"It's really time for Brother Zizhong to appear." Liu Yi was helpless, and looked at Mi Zhu with a smile.

"Where." Mi Zhu said with a little embarrassment: "I have been staying in Xiangyang for the rest of the day, before Cai Mao blocked the state pastoral mansion on all sides, although I had the heart to help, but I couldn't do anything." ”

"I don't know why, this Xiangyang seems to be against you and me, every time I see Brother Zizhong here, nothing good will happen." Liu Yi looked at Mi Zhu speechlessly.

"How could Bo Yuan have such an idea?" Mi Zhu snorted and said: "But when I came here this time, I was indeed entrusted by the military advisor to come and discuss a business with Brother Bo Yuan." ”

"Not for the time being, I heard that the vanguard of the Cao army has already gone south, and this place where the soldiers are fighting fiercely and dangerously, I won't go to join in the fun." Liu Yi hurriedly shook his head, just kidding, can you still go to that place in Xinye?

"Bo Yuan probably doesn't know that the military advisor has already used a plan in Bowangpo to break the 100,000 army of Cao's army!" When Mi Zhu said this, his tone obviously became excited.

An army of 100,000?

Liu Yi rolled his eyes, it is good to have 10,000, and 100,000, and now the total population of the whole world is only a few million, and in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it is said that Cao Cao's 800,000 army went south, which is estimated to be an imaginary number, ten times smaller, Liu Yi may still believe that the ancients bragged about this, and the game is not much worse than that of modern people.

"Then congratulations Kong Ming for me." Liu Yi laughed, it's impossible to go to Xinye anyway, it's dead!

"In addition, this time is not to invite Bo Yuan to Xinye, the military advisor thinks that Xinye cannot be defended, and has suggested that the lord will move the Xinye military and civilians to Fancheng, Zhu came this time, he wants to ask Mr. to go over to build some city fortifications, when it won't take too long, Xinye's side, will delay for Mr. as much time as possible." Mi Zhu smiled.
