"Rank! The banquet officially began, and everyone ate and drank well. ”

Liu Bei spread out his arms, shrugged his shoulders, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

But this smile is like a knife in the eyes of the scholars, standing above their own heads, and the slightest mistake will lead to death.

The banquet is good, but it's hard to swallow!

Liu Bei ate happily, and the sergeants in the hall were all in their throats, and they were uncomfortable.

At this moment, Kong Ming stood up, shook the fan lightly, and smiled lightly: "Although the banquet is good, it is always a little monotonous. ”

"Oh?" Liu Bei became interested: "General Ben also feels bored, but I don't know what Kong Ming has to help him?" ”

Kong Ming arched his hand: "Lord!" General Zilong recently gathered in one place among the generals, hereby training hundreds of elite soldiers, dedicated to rushing to kill the enemy's formation, I heard that this team's swordsmanship is quite good, why not let General Zilong lead three or five people to dance the sword to help the fun? ”

Liu Bei read the meaning from Kong Ming's eyes, adding fuel to the fire, if he didn't completely conquer these scholars, he was afraid that the next thing would be really difficult to achieve.

Hongmen Feast! Obvious Hongmen feast!

Fan Zeng only sent Xiang Zhuang to dance the sword alone, and this Liu Bei actually sent three or five people to dance the sword together, is this going to attack the scholars?

The masters of each family are like sitting on pins and needles, and there are already those who are afraid to sweat profusely, and even the cuffs have been soaked with sweat on their foreheads, and their bodies tremble up and down.

Although Liu Bei's words were spoken, those eyes were always staring at the scholars in the hall!

Fidgeting, apprehension, fear!

Liu Bei smiled secretly, what he wanted was such an expression.

In the corner, Liu Bei suddenly found a person with a calm expression and as steady as Mount Tai. That bearing was completely different from the other scholars in the hall, at first glance it looked like he was born in the army, but after careful consideration, he suddenly felt that this person was a little less murderous.

Three high-fives. Zhao Yun led four brave warriors, all in armor and holding sharp swords, and began to dance the sword.

In the corner, the man drank and enjoyed himself. In the face of Zhao Yunwujian, he didn't seem to pay attention to it at all, but began to appreciate it, and the faint smile and the unconscious nod at the corner of his mouth completely proved a point.

This person is not simple! Or maybe the family power behind this person is not simple.

Liu Bei raised his head, pretending to appreciate the sword dance, but secretly greeted Ah San, and said softly: "Give me a detailed investigation of that family!" With that, his eyes caught eye on the man in the corner.

Ah San understood and exited the front hall upside down.

The wine is half-drunk, and the sword dance ends.

Liu Bei picked up the three-legged wine bottle. Looking around at the sergeant clan in the hall, he said, "Come!" You are full of this bottle, and in the future, you should work together to defend Chaisang and support the Han family. ”

The people held up the wine bottles and drank them together.

Glancing at Kong Ming and seeing him nodding, Liu Bei cleared his throat and said, "You are all loyal ministers of the humerus of the Han Dynasty, and the Han court is in danger today. Gang often rushes, and at this very moment, it is even more necessary to help each other. ”

The early organiser asked, "I wonder how Uncle Huang needs help!?" ”

"It's nice to deal with smart people!"

Liu Bei smiled lightly: "There is no shortage of money and food, but the source of the soldiers heard that all the major warrior clans in Jiangdong have a trilogy. The size is different, the big ones are tens of thousands of horses, the small ones are hundreds of people, and now the general is about to face Zhou Yu's rebels, and it is when the supply of soldiers is scarce, so he asks for help. ”

Anyway. Liu Bei stood up and slammed to the ground!

At this moment, a small official broke into the front hall, hugged his fists and said: "Lord! The heads of the Gu Lu family have been imprisoned. ”

Liu Bei waved his hand, and said lightly: "I know, go down." ”

A large part of the reason why the scholars of Eastern Wu are so powerful is because they have mastered the barrel of the gun, and those with more people in the trilogy will have a hard gun, and the weight of their speech will be higher, and the status will be higher, while the gun will be weak if the number of people in that trilogy is small, even if the eternal swan song comes out of their mouths, it is like a fart, and finally disappears, and that's it.

Two of the four major families in Chaisang City have been cleaned up by Liu Bei, and the heads of the remaining two families have also been imprisoned by Liu Bei and controlled.

A person in the hall stood up: "Uncle Huang! How many people do you think we should help? The small family is small and the business is small, and there are only more than 700 people in the ministry. ”

Liu Bei was taken aback, there are more than ten people in the hall sergeant clan, if there are at least seven hundred parts, it can be seen how much power the entire Jiangdong clan will occupy!?

Liu Bei forced his composure: "This general is not biased at all, just leave two hundred parts in the ranks, and hand over the rest to this general!" ”

Yes!!!

The sergeant clan in the hall couldn't help but be in an uproar, if no one handed over two hundred people, they would just leave two hundred, this is cutting their flesh and drinking their blood, how can they accept it!?

Of course, this reaction was also expected by Liu Bei.

The man couldn't help but say: "Uncle Hui, the tribal is really a tenant in the family, and he works weekdays, and only when there is a war before he goes into battle, if only two hundred trilogy are left, there must be a large number of acres of land that will be wasted, so the gains outweigh the losses?" ”

What was the most important thing in the troubled times of the late Han Dynasty!?

Not soldiers and horses, not gold and silver, but grain and grass! Where there is grain and grass, there are soldiers and horses, and where there is grain and grass, there is gold and silver!

What does this person mean is that you Liu Bei don't know the importance of grain and grass? You can give the part, but you will lose the food and grass, once there is no food and grass, what will you use to raise soldiers!?

There is a threatening atmosphere in this sentence.

"The gains outweigh the losses!?" Liu Bei laughed contemptuously: "It should be mutually beneficial and win-win." ”

Mutual benefit and win-win!?

The old men of the scholar clan not only had a touch of helplessness, but such a blatant robbery turned out to be mutually beneficial and win-win!

Vicious! It's ruthless!

"First, after these tribes are handed over, although they are under the unified management of this general, they are still the same tribes, and no one can change this; Second, the acres of land that came out of the war, and the general is willing to exchange one thing! ”

"Oh? Dare to ask Uncle Huang, what is it? ”

Silence was momentary, and a word burst out of Liu Bei's mouth: Salt!

The scholar clan was stunned: "Dare to ask Uncle Huang, how do you talk about this salt?" ”

Liu Bei said calmly: "Dongwu is close to the sea, and boiling the sea can be turned into salt, and salt is the foundation of people's livelihood." Its profits can be imagined, and the general promised that after taking Soochow, he could distribute the salt to you according to his merits. How is it? ”

The sergeant clan was in an uproar again, how could they not be clear about the market interests of salt, but the Han Dynasty banned the operation of private salt, and everything was owned by the government, although they were greedy. But they can only watch, and there are many opportunists who secretly dredge their doors and sell illicit salt, making a lot of profits.

But there is another problem, Chaisang City belongs to the boundary of Jiujiang, which is inland, but the river is vertical and horizontal, and there are still hundreds of miles away from the sea. It's obvious. Leave it to just throw them a blank check.

But they also know the meaning of Liu Bei's words, although the first article spares a circle, in fact, it just means that I borrowed the part from you temporarily, don't be afraid, they are still your people; And although the second one looks like a big cake and exudes a charming fragrance, now that Liu Bei has just entered Jiangdong, his foothold is not stable, and he will meet Zhou Yu, the governor of the capital, in a few days. Whether he can survive is still a question, not to mention the official salt market in the clouds, this empty check issued by Liu Bei is about to catch a big fish?

But! They are not negotiable at all! All opponents have been controlled by Liu Bei. The four major families of Zhang, Zhu, Gu, and Lu are still invincible, and they have no choice! Liu Bei seems to have a negotiating tone, but in fact he is strong!

"Do you have any doubts?"

After being silent for a long time, Liu Bei asked.

The entire vestibule was silent.

"Since no one agreed, it was silent."

Liu Bei shook his head to the ground, got up and picked up the wine bottle: "Thank you for your help!" Hope tomorrow morning. Each part of the song can appear in the Xicheng campus as promised. ”

**********

After the banquet, the night is deeper.

Liu Bei strolled in the backyard, looking at the starry sky, as if he was thinking.

Under Sun Gan's order, Jia Ding Asan rushed to Jiangxia with a crossbow, and then took a boat from Jiangxia to Chaisang City.

I don't know when, Ah San appeared behind Liu Bei and arched his hand: "Master! After finding out clearly, that person is the whole clan of Wu County, this person's name is Quan Peng, and he is Quan Rou's right-hand man. ”

Quan!?

There are really few appearances of this surname, but I vaguely remember that there is a person named Quan Cong in the Three Kingdoms, could it be that Quan Cong is from the Wu County Quan clan?

Liu Bei turned his head abruptly and couldn't help asking, "Is there a Quan Cong in the whole clan?" ”

"Amount"

Ah San was silent, thought for a moment, and replied: "There is indeed a person named Quan Cong, and this person is Quan Rou's son. ”

Liu Bei nodded silently, and waved his arm to signal Ah San to leave.

It seems that there is also a dragon and a crouching tiger in these small scholars, not only Quan Cong, Liu Bei also remembers Buqi, remembers Zhuge Ge, and remembers Lu Xun who burned the company camp for 700 miles.

Liu Bei made up his mind that he must pacify Jiangdong before Cao Thief's division went south!

As soon as Ah San left, Tian Feng hurried to the inner house.

"Lord!"

Liu Bei suddenly looked back: "It's Yuan Hao!?" Has it ever been done? ”

Tian Feng nodded: "Lord!" Jiang Xia's side was rushing to build a repeater overnight. ”

"Hmmm! Yes, Yuan Hao, thank you for your hard work. ”

Tian Feng arched his hand again: "Lord! I heard that you are persecuting the nobles to raise men and horses today, but I don't know if this is the case? ”

Liu Bei paused and admitted: "This is indeed the case, what's the matter?" ”

"Who did such a clumsy plan!?"

Tian Feng was furious.

Of course, Liu Bei would not say that it was Zhuge Liang's plan, and directly took it all under his own name, and said: "This matter is my own idea, and it has nothing to do with others, what's wrong Yuan Hao?" Is there anything wrong? ”

Tian Feng sighed: "Lord! With this move, you have basically offended the Jiangdong family, and the real family power behind them is only afraid that they have already angered the lord, even if the lord defeats Zhou Yu, it is still difficult to dominate Jiangdong! (To be continued.) )
