"Mr. Gongtai, do you think what Zhao Feng said is true?" Xinye was too guarded in the mansion, and Liu Bei looked at Chen Gong with a puzzled look.
"I can't say for sure, but I have a lot of wetlands in Xinye, and I am running out of water, how can I encounter a drought?" Chen Gong really said what was in his heart.
"Hmm!" Liu Bei nodded, indeed as Chen Gong said, how can Xinye be so prone to drought?
"In this case, let's not worry about this matter for now, our Xinye City is small, even if it encounters a drought, it is still too late to make temporary adjustments!" Chen Gong said.
"Hmmm! That's it first! Liu Bei nodded.
"By the way, the lord of the palace has just received the news that Wolong Zhuge Liang is now plowing Longmu in a grass house in Nanyang, as if he is waiting for the price to sell!" Chen Gong said suddenly.
"Really??" Hearing this news, Liu Bei was pleasantly surprised, Mr. Shui Jing once said: Wolong and phoenix chicks can settle the world! If he gets Wolong, doesn't it mean that the world is one step closer to him?
"Yes, this news seems to have been released by Zhuge Liang himself!" Chen Gong nodded.
"Okay, make arrangements, I'll rush to Nanyang immediately!" Liu Bei said.
"Yes!" Chen Gong nodded, "The lord should let the second general and the third general accompany him!" โ
"Why?" Liu Bei was puzzled.
"The safety of the lord needs to be guaranteed, and if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, so it is better to be safe!" Chen Gongdao.
"Well, then I'll take the second brother and the third brother!" Liu Bei nodded, quite agreeing.
"Gong will go and inform the second general and the third general!" Chen Gong nodded and retreated.
After Chen Gong retreated, Liu Bei kept frowning and didn't stretch for a long time.

"Hahaha! Joke, big joke! It's really laughing at me! "Jiangdong Chaisang, Sun Quan's house, after Sun Quan read the letter, he laughed.
"Will there be a drought in Koto? Hahaha! For thousands of years, there has never been a drought in Koto! Even the water level of the Yangtze River has never dropped by more than four feet! Sun Quan laughed and said disdainfully.
"Lord, Zhao Feng said so, will there really be any basis? Wouldn't it be better for us to be a little prepared? At this time, Zhang Zhao, who had been frowning since reading the letter, spoke.
"What are you preparing for, do you believe Zhao Feng's nonsense? Do you believe that there will be a drought in our Jiangdong? Sun Quan sneered with disdain.
"......" Zhang Zhao was speechless, in his heart, he naturally didn't believe that there would be any drought in Jiangdong, a land of fish and rice, it was not realistic at all! If you want to cause a drought in the whole of Jiangdong, then at least half of the water in the Yangtze River needs to be drained, which is obviously unrealistic!
However, there was a faint trace of uneasiness in Zhang Zhao's heart, and he couldn't say where it came from, but he just felt that this matter was not so simple.
"Okay, you don't have to worry about this matter, I know in my heart, everything is fine as usual!" Sun Quan waved his hand and said nonchalantly.
"Yes!" Everyone agreed in unison, and only Zhang Zhao had a trace of doubt in his heart, and the rest of them were all in the same way as Sun Quan! That is Zhao Feng is joking, or Zhao Feng is confusing them!
โฆโฆ
Sun Quan and Liu Bei all have such an attitude, as for Liu Biao and Liu Yan, they naturally scoffed at Zhao Fengde's letter, and didn't believe that there would be a drought under their rule, and after reading the letter, they abandoned it as if they were a shoe!
Among the princes in the world, only Cao Cao made a slight reaction, but the reaction was not so strong, just a little preparation!
All this is naturally Zhao Feng got the news through Jinyiwei! He couldn't help but sigh slightly, although these princes are called princes, but their awareness of disaster prevention is too strong! Once there is a natural disaster, they will not be able to cope with it at all!
Forget it, since he doesn't believe it, Zhao Feng has no choice, he has already done his best! However, Zhao Feng immediately thought of a bad solution, so he called Guo Jia, Mi Zhu, and Zhen Yi to the house.
"What is the important matter for the Lord to summon us here?" Guo Jia was the first to speak.
"I have an idea, I don't know if it's feasible, and I ask Fengxiao to help analyze and analyze!" Zhao Feng said very politely.
"Haha, the lord still has this time, so Jia will listen to it!" Guo Jia laughed.
"That's the case, Gu wants Zizhong and his father-in-law to buy the grain from the rest of the Han states together, no matter the price, as long as they sell it, we will buy it!" Zhao Fengfeng was halfway through his words.
"Haha, lord, wonderful, wonderful!" Guo Jia only heard this, and then opened his mouth and laughed.
Zhao Feng bought grain so aggressively, if that drought and flood became a reality, there would definitely be many people who would not be able to eat, and at that time, the rest of the princes would definitely come to borrow grain from Zhao Feng, and at that time, Zhao Feng would extort them at a higher price, and this transaction would be a sure profit! But there is a premise for everything, that is, these two disasters are real!
"What do you mean, my lord?" Guo Jia figured it out, but it doesn't mean that the other two people figured it out, no, Mi Zhu was a little confused by what the two said, so he asked.
"If we buy the grain of the rest of the princes, the grain under the rule of the rest of the princes will be less, and once the disaster becomes a reality, will the princes still have surplus food to save the people?" Zhao Feng smiled slightly.
Speaking of which, Mi Zhu and Zhen Yi suddenly realized that this was the case!
"The lord is a great talent!" Mi Zhu bowed sincerely.
"However, you two must remember that the bribery should be moderate, and don't let the rest of the princes be alert!" Zhao Feng instructed the two of them this.
Just kidding, if it is a large-scale purchase, it will definitely attract the attention of the local princes, in that case, even if they do not believe in the true nature of these two disasters, they will be alert, or they will not be allowed to buy grain!
"Yes, the two of you, especially Cao Cao, must be careful, don't let anyone with a heart be alert!" Guo Jia nodded approvingly, and brought Cao Cao out alone. Because in Guo Jia's opinion, among the princes of the whole Han Dynasty, only Cao Cao may be Zhao Feng's opponent, as for the others!
"Don't worry, don't worry, sir, we will definitely do what we are told!" The two nodded, taking it to heart.
"Well, okay, then these things will be handed over to the two of you, if you don't have enough money, just tell Lone, Lone will fully support you!" Zhao Feng nodded, and then said symbolically.
Why symbolic? Because these two people are now richer than Zhao Feng, one of the four richest men in the Han Dynasty, this title is not called for nothing!
If the two of them have no money at this time, then Zhao Feng will have no money!
