Chapter 823: The pomp and circumstance before the imperial examination

Sun Ce and Cao Ang threatened Zhang Yu, wanting stability in this area and giving them enough time to develop.

Sun Ce's foundation is unstable, the geographical span is very large, and the most important mode of transportation, the Yangtze River water transportation, has always been under the threat of Zhang Yu.

Therefore, Sun Ce needs time, they develop quickly, give them enough time, and they can develop quickly.

And Cao Ang, the main thing is that there are too many threats around them, and it takes time to deal with them.

Yuan Shao put a lot of pressure on them, and Li Dao and Zhang Xiu gave them a lot of trouble before.

But now that they have eliminated Yuan Shu and Lu Bu, the threat is much smaller.

At this time, they can stabilize this place first, that is, for the time being, Zhang Yu and Sun Ce will not be enemies with them, and give them more time.

"Haha, the covenant has been signed, you two can rest assured." Zhang Yu said with a laugh after signing the covenant.

Zhang Yu smiled exaggeratedly, and the taste of provocation was very strong.

Everyone understands that this covenant has no binding effect, and the key is strength.

However, they all believed that this covenant would buy them a certain amount of time, and that whoever struck first would have a moral advantage over the other two parties, and that's it.

After signing, Zhang Yu said: "Two of you, it's so boring to fight and kill, it's better to sit down and talk about business, I have a lot of goods in Jiangdong, I don't know if you are interested, just pull here to trade, it's convenient." ”

Cao Ang immediately said: "Of course, but the price needs to be discounted, and we only keep money transactions, so we don't have too many conditions." ”

Cao Ang's words surprised Zhang Yu, didn't he immediately dismantle the stage in front of Sun Ce? The handwriting of this covenant is not yet dry.

However, Cao Ang also stated that he would not have other transactions with Zhang Yu.

"Of course, of course, I love to do business the most, many of my goods in Jiangdong can be shipped in batches, and the price will naturally drop a lot, salt, tea, grain and grass, weapons and equipment, as well as paper, books, liquor..."

Zhang Yu immediately listed a bunch of goods, among which there were many goods in demand.

"I will arrange someone to talk about these, as long as I can make profits, I can still cooperate very well." Cao Ang said.

Zhang Yu showed a happy expression, and then said to Sun Ce, "Brother Bo Fu is not interested?" ”

Sun Ce's face has been bad just now, he had a private agreement with Cao Ang, but he hooked up with Zhang Yu in front of him.

Sun Ce also said: "Naturally interested, haven't we always maintained friendly business and trade exchanges? ”

"Okay, then thank you for your support, I will say goodbye next, and I hope we will cooperate happily in the future."

Zhang Yu left, and Sun Ce and Cao Ang also left.

Cao Ang left very simply, and did not continue to discuss anything with Sun Ce.

Doing so completely took the initiative in front of Sun Ce.

After leaving, Zhang Yu said to Dian Wei: "This Cao Ang is as shrewd as his Lao Tzu, and he is not easy to deal with. ”

Cao Ang played this hand very smartly, and it would be difficult for Sun Ce to gain the initiative in front of him in the future.

Cao Ang's cooperation with Zhang Yu is naturally very beneficial, anyway, he doesn't cooperate with Zhang Yu, and there are many businessmen or families who will cooperate with Zhang Yu and enter their territory through different channels.

If you let others earn this money, it is better to earn it yourself, and then you can use it to expand your strength.

There was no problem with Cao Ang's plan.

Although Sun Ce has cooperated with Zhang Yu for a long time and has made a lot of money, he has always been on guard.

Zhang Yu didn't go back to Fat City, and after leaving, he went back to Jiangdong directly.

At this time, it was less than a month before the imperial examination, which was a very important challenge for Zhang Yu.

At this time, Jiangdong was very lively, and a large number of scholars came to participate in the imperial examination.

The number of people in this imperial examination greatly exceeded Zhang Zhao's estimate, and it is currently estimated that there will be at least 80,000 people.

And under the influence of this wave, there were many scholars who came to observe.

Some wealthy scholars also brought a lot of retinues with them, so there are a lot of people who have been to Jiangdong recently.

Some scholars from Jizhou, Yuan Shao also wanted to send people to intercept them and intercept them, although he intercepted several groups of people, but Yuan Shao could not offend these people and did not dare to lock them up.

It doesn't matter if some people are closed, Yuan Shao is not afraid, but if there are too many, Yuan Shao will not be able to bear it.

Because he didn't know how many families pleaded with him through different channels, Yuan Shao gave him a headache just by dealing with these.

Later, he didn't even care about the civilian soldiers, and left them to go on their own.

These people will not necessarily be able to go out in Jiangdong if they go to participate in the scientific examination, and if they get good results in the examination, they can still take the opportunity to recruit them.

But churn is partly for sure.

There are pros and cons, Yuan Shao can't help it.

Not only Jizhou, but also scholars from all over China flocked to it.

This Koto has become a holy place.

Of course, an examination room has also been set up in Youzhou, but Youzhou's influence cannot be compared with Jiangdong, after all, several bigwigs are in Jiangdong.

On the way back, Zhang Yu only brought 5,000 people, and they were fat enough to have a lot of students rushing to take the exam on the way.

Some of these people want to be famous in Jiangdong, some want to be famous, and some have other purposes, in short, no matter what their purpose, this imperial examination must be destined to be passed down through the ages.

This time, the champion produced by the imperial examination, or other people who are on the list, will also go down in history.

ran wildly all the way, and a few days later, Zhang Yu rushed to the royal city.

Outside the royal city, a large number of students gathered here, and Zhang Zhao arranged a large number of military patrols to maintain law and order.

"This royal city is really large, it's really magnificent."

"Jiangdong is so rich, Zhang Yu can build such a city."

"Our northwest side can't compare with here."

"Alas, I came a month ahead of schedule, and I lived in a village where people live, and you know, the people here live like small landlords."

"Yes, the people here are doing so well, I live in their house for a month, and they eat meat five times a month, and I haven't eaten it five times in a year."

Many students, the first time they come here, they are not only amazed but also amazed.

In the past two months, many people have visited Jiangdong Academy in batches, and they can even go in to listen to public classes.

You can listen to a few bigwigs give lectures and make them feel that the trip is worthwhile.

Cai Yong was revising history, and there would be a lot of problems in the process of revising history, so he openly discussed it with many students.

These observers not only felt that Cai Yong was very knowledgeable, but even the students here were very powerful and could debate with Cai Yong.

In addition, Lu Zhi's lectures were more miscellaneous, which broadened the horizons of many students.

And Zheng Xuan spoke very deeply, which made many people fascinated and addicted to it.

In addition, there are many subjects offered here, which makes them feel that they have learned too little.

Warmly celebrate the release of my friend's new book "Tyrant Lu Bu of the Three Kingdoms" on the shelves, and wish the new book a big hit
