Guo Xin rolled his eyes at Cao Shuo, pouted and said nothing.

"Childe, in fact, I came to you to ask for something." Guo Jia asked in a low voice: "When the son went to Wancheng last time......

"I didn't forget!" Without waiting for Guo Jia to finish speaking, Cao Shuo glanced at Guo Xin: "Don't worry, Guo Gong, I'll go back to you!" ”

Guo Jia nodded: "Then I'll leave first!" ”

"Brother, you're leaving?" When he saw Cao Shuo, Guo Jia was about to leave, and Guo Xin looked dazed.

"That's it, it's time to go!" Guo Jia said.

"If the young lady refuses to leave, she can stay here for a few more days." Cao Shuo said: "Guo Gong and I are not outsiders, not to mention that I still have a marriage contract with Miss......"

Guo Jia smiled slightly and did not speak.

Guo Xin glared at Cao Shuo fiercely: "Accompany your beautiful ladies!" ”

Sending Guo Jia's brothers and sisters to the entrance of the backyard, Cao Shuo said: "The front yard is too messy, I won't send it far!" ”

"It's not early, son, please go back!" Guo Jia arched his hand.

Seeing Guo Jia's brothers and sisters leave, Cao Shuo turned around and returned to the inner courtyard.

In the outer courtyard, Cai Ji, who was so busy that he was anxious, had a squeezed smile on his face, greeting everyone who came to give gifts.

"Captain Cai!" As soon as the servants were arranged to carry away a few boxes of gifts, several people came to Cai Ji.

Reflexively bowed his hand in return, and when Cai Ji raised his head, he saw that it was Liu Bei standing in front of him.

"Liu Gong is also here!" Maintaining a mechanical smile, Cai Ji greeted.

"Childe isn't there?" Looking left and right for a while, Liu Bei asked.

"Childe has too many affairs, and these little things are left to me." Cai Ji asked, "Gong Liu is here to ask for a debt from Gongzi, right?" ”

"How so!" Liu Bei waved his hand again and again: "The joy of the son's housewarming, how could I come to ask for debts at this time." ”

"Actually, Childe has already ordered it." Cai Ji said: "If Liu Gong comes, let me tell me, please go to the barracks to find Pang Shiyuan." ”

"Who is Pang Shiyuan?" Liu Bei hadn't heard of Pang Tong yet, so he asked blankly.

"Childe's newly hired staff." Cai Ji said: "Liu Gong's debts have been handed over to him for disposal!" ”

"Captain Lao Cai told me!" Liu Bei said: "I gave my son some gifts, all of which are worthless gadgets, and asked Captain Cai to accept them on his behalf." ”

Liu Bei turned his head and instructed the entourage who followed: "Don't send the gifts yet!" ”

Several attendants stepped forward carrying two baskets of gifts.

Cai Ji took a look, and what Liu Bei sent was just some ordinary silk, and there was nothing particularly peculiar.

"I thanked Gong Liu on behalf of my son!" Although the gift was shabby, Cai Ji still thanked Liu Bei.

"Since Childe is busy, I can't bother." Liu Bei said: "Say goodbye first!" ”

"Congratulations to Gong Liu!" Cai Ji clenched his fists and watched Liu Bei leave.

Leaving Cao Shuo's residence, Guan Yu said to Liu Bei: "Previously, Sima Zhongda said that Cao Zirong had no money, and my brother believed it, but now it's good, he not only held a big banquet, but also told people that he earned 100,000 yuan......

"Say no more!" Liu Bei said: "Zirong Gongzi has not already arranged it, let's go find Pang Shiyuan!" ”

"I'm afraid that I will have all kinds of excuses to shirk it." Zhang Fei said: "At first, my brother collected debts, and Cao Zirong received them in person, but now it's good, he didn't give him a face-to-face meeting at all, but let Sima Zhongda deal with this Pang Shiyuan." ”

"It's better than not seeing anyone!" Liu Bei said: "It's getting late now, and it's inconvenient to go to Pang Shiyuan, we'll go early tomorrow morning!" ”

"Brother, you have to keep some heart this time, don't play without Cao Zirong's staff!" Zhang Fei muttered angrily.

Liu Bei didn't speak, and took them home.

The next day, Liu Bei got up early in the morning.

After washing, he took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to Cao Shuo's military camp.

In addition to Cao Shuo's military camp, Xu Ducheng also has a main camp.

Most of the soldiers of the Cao army were stationed in the main camp, and only Cao Shuo enjoyed different treatment from other soldiers.

When they came to the barracks, it was still Sima Yi who received them.

After meeting Sima Yi, Liu Bei asked, "Dare to ask Captain Sima, is there a Mr. Pang Shiyuan here?" ”

"Gong Liu is here to collect debts, right?" Sima Yi asked with a smile.

"Not either!" Liu Bei said: "Yesterday, I gave a gift to my son, and I heard Captain Cai mention it, so I came to pay a visit." ”

"Shi Yuan has something to do!" Sima Yi said: "If Liu Gong is not in a hurry, go to my barracks and wait for him for a while?" ”

"Disturb Captain Sima!" Liu Bei thanked him.

Led Liu Bei and others to the barracks, Sima Yi said: "I am busy with military affairs, I can't talk to Liu Gong, snub Liu Gong, and please forgive me!" ”

"Captain Sima has something to do, just go and get busy!" Liu Bei said: "I don't have to do anything! ”

"I'm going to let people watch tea!" Sima Yi instructed the guard: "Show Liu Gong tea, so that you can be entertained, if the tea in the cup is dry, I will ask you!" ”

"Captain Sima rest assured!" The Guardian answered.

Sima Yi said a few more polite words to Liu Bei, turned around and left the barracks.

Liu Bei and the others sat in the barracks and waited for half an hour, but they didn't see Pang Tong appear.

Zhang Fei was a little impatient, he stood up and said, "This Pang Shiyuan, I don't know what to do......

"Yide!" Liu Bei said: "Is it home in the army? Shi Yuangong can't just wait for us, maybe he can't take a break from his busy affairs. ”

"That's it, brother!" Zhang Fei sighed and said, "Always think about others, but has anyone thought about it?" 5,000 hanging money, begging for a few months......"

"Say no more!" Liu Bei frowned: "Isn't it just five thousand hanging money?" If Zirong doesn't pay it back, what can he do? ”

Zhang Fei was choked by his words and didn't know what to say, so he sighed and sat back.

After waiting for nearly an hour, it was almost time for lunch, but Pang Tong was still not seen.

Not only did Zhang Fei walk around the house like an ant on a hot pot, Guan Yu couldn't bear to say to Liu Bei: "Brother, do you want to find someone to urge you?" ”

Liu Bei thought for a while: "Forget it, let's go back first......"

"Forgive your sins! Forgiveness! Before he finished speaking, a person walked in, hugged his fists and said with a smile on his face: "In Xia Pangtong, I am really busy with official business in the morning, and I just took a break!" ”

Pang Tong reported to his home, and Liu Bei replied and asked, "Your Excellency is Shi Yuangong?" ”

"What is unfair!" Pang Tong smiled: "I'm a junior, Liu Gong just call me Shiyuan!" ”

In terms of appearance, Pang Tong really can't be considered good-looking.

After meeting him, Liu Bei was also wondering in his heart, how could Cao Shuo use such an unattractive staff?

"Gong Liu came to me, it should be the horse money owed for the son?" Pang Tong asked.

"I just learned from Captain Cai that Shi Yuangong is very much used by Gongzi." Liu Bei said: "I just came to pay a visit!" ”

"It's not for money, that's good to say!" Pang Tong said: "It's already noon, so I'll order someone to prepare dishes and invite Liu Gong to eat a war meal in the barracks." ”
