This Mi Zhi still has a little ability, only a few years to Youzhou, using a large amount of grain and cloth transported by the Mi family from Xuzhou, not only in Quanzhou, Yongnu, Lu County to gain a foothold, but also in Yongnu, Lu County to build Mi family's own shops.

The year before last, Gongsun Zhan had an accident, Yuan Xi occupied Youzhou, Wang Song took refuge in Yuan Xi, and Mi Zhi was anxious, and later settled it through Brother Kong Fang.

Wu Heng assisted Yuan Shao to attack Gongsun Zhan, Yuan Shao pretended to be the name of the Son of Heaven, sealed the Collapse of the Don and the Khan Lu King Wuyan, the Cliff King Wu Fuyan, Nanlou and so on as a single Yu, rewarded the golden ribbon, the right Beiping, Liaoxi as the place where Wu Heng raised horses, agreed to the request of the Shan Dun, married a clan daughter to the Shan Dun as a wife, and opened the border city.

Mi Zhi saw that the business opportunity was coming, so he opened a shop in Jixian County and Wuzhong again, not only transporting grain to Yongnu and Luxian, but also to Jixian County and Wuzhong, and directly trading leather goods and horses with Wuheng. Yuan Xi has a gentle personality, knowing that the Mi family is a giant merchant in Xuzhou, and Youzhou is short of grain, so he is very happy to get the Mi family to sell grain here.

But this incident made another person in Xuzhou unhappy.

This person's surname is Wang Mingfa, originally from Bingzhou, because his grandfather was an official in Xuzhou, married the daughter of a scholar in Xuzhou, and settled in Xuzhou. The Wang family was a business tycoon in Bingzhou, and naturally brought business to Xuzhou after coming to Xuzhou, and after decades of operation, it has become a little famous in the business community of Xuzhou, operating the grain business from Xuzhou to Youzhou.

A few years ago, Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou, and the Wang family came to the door to pull the relationship, bought a lot of horses for Lu Bu in Youzhou, and made a lot of money.

After Liu Bei was defeated by Lu Bu, he always felt that there was a shortage of war horses, so he asked the Mi family to go to Youzhou to find Gongsun Zan to buy horses, and since then he has also embarked on the business of operating from Xuzhou to Youzhou, which makes the Wang family very dissatisfied.

But Gongsun Chan is the overlord of Youzhou, and the Wang family dares to be angry but does not dare to speak. Later, Lu Bu was jointly defeated by Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and the Wang family immediately found Cao Cao and took out a large sum of money to fund Cao Cao's army. In exchange, Cao Cao acquiesced to the Wang family's continued business from Youzhou to Xuzhou, on the condition that Cao Cao must be provided with more good horses.

More than nine months ago, Liu Bei took the opportunity of Cao Cao's battle to attack Xudu, originally wanted to rescue the Son of Heaven, but Cao Cao had already prepared, not only did the Son of Heaven not be rescued, but all the inner Ying in the city of Xudu was beheaded by Cao Cao, and the three clans were exterminated, and the Son of Heaven himself died of injuries.

It was also Liu Bei's bad luck, when the news reached the front line of Guandu, Cao's army had just defeated Yuan Shao, so he attacked Liu Bei with a victorious army.

Liu Bei was invincible, knowing that this time he had completely angered Cao Cao, so he fled into Nanyang with a group of people.

Cao Cao fought a big battle with Lu Su and Dian Wei in Luyang, regardless of victory or defeat, and Liu Shi went out of Hanoi and Hongnong, seized Luoyang, attacked Chen Liu, and saw that he could wave his army to Xu Du, Cao Cao was frightened and returned to the military officer again.

was going to make a sneak attack, but Liu Shi had already prepared and laid down a bag, which made Cao Cao lose a lot of people. When Cao Cao gathered the army again, Liu Shi had already retreated to Hanoi, and Cao Cao was angry, but Liu Shi took advantage of the geographical advantage, Cao Cao had just gone through a few major battles, and he was already demoralized, and the people's grievances were boiling, and he was unable to fight again, and he was recuperating from his injuries.

But the Mi family suffered, and all the commercial businesses of the Mi family in Xuzhou, Yuzhou, and Yanzhou were copied, and even the grain and cloth that were about to be shipped to Youzhou were all returned to Cao Cao.

At first, people didn't believe it, but with the arrival of the Mi family's grain ship for half a year, they believed it. The Mi family collapsed in Xuzhou, Gongsun Zhan was defeated, and some people began to attack the idea of the Mi family's shop, and the Wang family was the most active one.

The Mi family shop had no grain to sell, the business plummeted, and there was no income to support many guards, so now the Mi family only has dozens of famous servants brought from Xuzhou. Mi Zhi is even more panicked, I don't know what happened to the eldest brother Mi Zhu, if the Mi family Mi Zhu is not there, then the Mi family is down.

Nearly 100 good horses stored in Quanzhou have become gold in the eyes of everyone. However, Mi Zhi has a good relationship with Wang Song and Li Nian, and he also knows that although the Mi family's business has been confiscated, the eldest brother of the Mi family is still there, and the Mi family also has a daughter who married Shang Guogong, Hussar General, and Yongzhou Mu Liu Shi as his wife.

But the merchants are different, each by their own strategy, to show their fortune, Mi Zhi can be said to have lived like a year in recent times, the housekeeper suggested that Mi Zhi sell the shop, go back to Nanyang or Chang'an to find the eldest brother or sister. However, the Mi family wanted to sell the shop, but no one dared to buy it, and the price of the shop fell to the price of cabbage and could not be sold, and no one dared to buy nearly 100 horses, because Mi Zhu still owed Wang Song three months of taxes that had not been paid, and the three months of taxes plus profits were also a lot of money.

Wang Song was not in a hurry, waiting for Mi Zhi to find him and give him the good horse.

Mi Zhu, who was selling a shop in Jixian County, heard that Wang Song had an accident, Li Nian rebelled and was killed, and now he was engaged in the former Wangfu, Liu Fang was in charge, and Mi Zhi was even more anxious, so he rushed to Wangfeng and wanted to deal with the good horse as soon as possible and return to Chang'an.

Rushed to the Wang family's shop, saw a small mark on the flag that had just been changed, was surprised and suspicious, asked the shopkeeper about the current owner, begged for several days, spent a small amount of money, and saw Liu Shi.

The two returned to Yongnu Mansion, and after listening to Mi Zhi's narration, Liu Shi sighed and said, "It's not easy for you!" ”

"Now Brother Mizhu, follow my eldest brother in Nanyang, with my eldest brother's ability and strength, there is no problem in holding Nanyang, but do you want to sell the shop back to Chang'an or Nanyang now, or do you want to stay here to help me?" Liu Shi asked with a smile.

Seeing that Mi Zhi was a little hesitant, Liu Shi smiled again: "Of course, I will find someone to buy your shop, even if it is a good horse stored in Quanzhou, I will also buy all the good horses stored in Quanzhou, it just so happens that we need a large number of war horses now, is the price?" It's still at the market price, and I won't let you suffer, otherwise your sister will complain about me again when I go back! ”

Mi Zhi said: "I'm not worried about this, with my brother-in-law here, it's okay for me to stay here, I'm just worried about my eldest brother." Something happened to the Mi family, the saddest thing is the eldest brother, the Mi family's business has been exchanged for several generations, and now it is said that it is gone! ”

Liu Shidao: "As long as someone is there, what are you afraid of?" If the business is gone, you can do it again, as long as you work hard, you can do it like this, or even bigger. ”

Seeing Mi Zhi, he was still hesitant.

Liu Shidao: "Don't you have confidence in yourself? Don't have confidence in Brother Mi Zhu? ”

Mi Zhi smiled in embarrassment and said: "No, I'm thinking that you are here, so what should Chang'an do?" Do you have anyone back to Chang'an now, help me bring a letter to my eldest brother, saying that I will stay in Youzhou to help my brother-in-law run the shop. ”

Liu Shi said with a smile: "There is no problem in sending someone to bring the letter back, as for running a shop, there is one thing to make clear, not to help me, but to help the Mi family." Otherwise, it will cause misunderstanding, and others still think that I am greedy for the family's business? ”

Mi Zhi hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't have any money except for a few shops and nearly a hundred good horses now. And I owe Yongnu Mansion a few months of taxes, plus the money, this good horse went to a small half, as well as Jixian, Luxian, and endless taxes, the wages of the guards, shop rent, and a lot of money, so calculated, there is not much left, how can there be money to make a capital? ”

Liu Shi smiled: "Don't worry about this, I said you can do it, you can do it!" Settle down and stay for two days and I'll answer you. ”
