Chapter 346: I met Lord Ming
Cao Shuo bought a house for Sima Yi and waited for many days.
At that time, he had no money in his hand, so he needed to buy a house, and he still needed to go through the Cao family's account.
Not to mention the cumbersome procedures, there is not much money to be used.
Today's Cao Shuo, with the Touching Gold Camp and Lingyun Pavilion under his command, is no longer the poor and sour appearance he was at the beginning.
Lingyun Pavilion has a lot of money, not to mention buying two houses, even if they buy the entire street, they can do it within two or three days.
The day after Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao came to Xudu, Lingyun Pavilion completed the two mansions.
The two houses are no more than a hundred steps away from the barracks.
Cao Shuo personally accompanied Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao to one of the houses.
This house was assigned to Deng Zhan.
Entering the main gate, what appeared in front of Cao Shuo and the others was a piece of greenery.
Although it is already autumn, the leaves of the trees in the courtyard are only slightly yellow.
The front yard is not particularly large, and there are many shrubs planted in the flower beds, which are so verdant that you may even feel like you are in spring.
"Is Brother Deng still satisfied with this house?" Cao Shuo asked.
"Childe's love is really unrequitable!" Deng Zhan clenched his fists and said: "The only way to do things for the son wholeheartedly!" ”
"Let's take a look in the backyard." Cao Shuo said.
The backyard is more spacious than the frontyard, and more than a dozen side rooms are surrounded on three sides.
Pointing to the room directly opposite, Cao Shuo said to Deng Zhan, "Brother Deng will go and have a look first." ”
Deng Zhan arched his hand and strode towards the room.
Cao Shuoyou said to Zhu Ao: "Let's not disturb Brother Deng, let's go to Brother Zhu's residence first." ”
"Don't have to accompany him to see here?" Zhu Ao asked.
"There are servants and maids, who need us to take care of them here." Cao Shuo smiled slightly and patted Zhu Ao's arm: "Brother Deng has entered the room, I'm afraid I am reluctant to come out again, let's not be an eyesore here." ”
Although Zhu Ao was confused, he still followed Cao Shuo.
Walking to the door of the room, Deng Zhan glanced back.
didn't see Cao Shuo and Zhu Ao, he was stunned for a moment.
wanted to go back to them, but when he arrived at the door, Deng Zhan decided to push open the door and take a look at the furnishings in the room.
Gently push open the door, and a faint fragrance rushes to your face.
What appeared in front of Deng Zhan was the Great Qin beauty he had selected from Cao Shuo the day before.
Seeing Deng Zhan coming, the Great Qin Beauty bowed and said in an unskilled Central Plains dialect: "The husband is back!" ”
"Uh......" Deng Zhan was stunned for a moment and asked her, "When did you come?" ”
"As soon as I bought the house, I came." Da Qin Beauty said: "Mrs. Zhen instructed me to wait here to serve my husband." ”
"I'll go see Childe first, you wait here." After giving her a command, Deng Zhan turned around and left.
Da Qin Beauty didn't say anything, like a Han woman, and saw him go.
Cao Shuo had already accompanied Zhu Ao to the newly purchased house at this time.
Zhu Ao's house is separated from Deng Zhan's by half a street.
The two houses are about the same size.
After entering the backyard, Cao Shuo asked him to go to the main house first as if he was sending Deng Zhan away.
As soon as Zhu Ao left, Deng Zhan ran over.
"Why did Childe go?" When he arrived at Cao Shuo's side, Deng Zhan saluted and asked.
"Why is Brother Deng here?" Cao Shuo asked with a smile, "Could it be that the Great Qin Beauty is not good at serving?" ”
"It's not!" Deng Zhan said: "Childe doesn't say goodbye, how can I not come to look for it." ”
"When Brother Deng said this, I did a bad job." Cao Shuo said with a smile.
While the two were talking, Zhu Gongdao, who had entered the main house, also walked out: "Childe has arranged everything, I really don't know how to thank him." ”
"Prepare these as they should." Cao Shuo said: "The two of them will live at home first, and when the army returns, I will ask people to invite the two of them." ”
"Childe doesn't need anyone around lately?" Deng Zhan asked.
"No one dares to touch me in Xudu." Cao Shuo said with a smile: "You just have to live, the free life will not last long, and Zhang Xiu should also suffer after his father comes back!" ”
"The Cao family is fighting again and again this year." Deng Zhan said: "Fortunately, the two of us came to vote at this time, otherwise when the Cao family pacifies the Central Plains, it will be meaningless for the two of us to vote." ”
Cao Shuo laughed and said to the two: "Don't worry, there are many opportunities for you to make contributions." ”
Deng Zhan and Zhu Ao kept sending Cao Shuo to the street.
Cao Shuo repeatedly asked them to go back, but the two did not insist on sending him back to Cao's house, and stood at the corner of the street to watch him go away.
When Cao Shuo's back disappeared from their sight, Deng Zhan said: "I have long heard that the second son of the Cao family is capable, but I didn't expect him to be a master who knows how to use people. ”
"It's not wrong for the two of us to take refuge in the second son." Zhu Ao said: "When Huo Wu found me, if it wasn't for Zhang Yang chasing me tightly, I really didn't want to come. ”
"Do you regret it now?" Deng Zhan asked with a smile.
"Regret what?" Zhu Ao said: "After meeting the second son, I am glad that I did not refuse the invitation of Fire Dance. ”
"After taking so many benefits from others, our lives will be the Cao family in the future!" Deng Zhan said.
"What the Cao family." Zhu Ao pursed his lips and said, "I only recognize the second son, and the others don't recognize it!" ”
"That's what Brother Zhu said." Deng Zhan said: "We don't have much to do these days, how do you plan to pass the time?" ”
"What are Brother Deng's plans?" Zhu Ao asked.
"I don't know." Deng Zhan said: "Why don't we go to Xudu together?" ”
"Great idea!" Zhu Ao said: "I also happen to want to enjoy the scenery of Xudu. ”
Cao Shuo said goodbye to Zhu Ao and Deng Zhan, and was walking towards Cao's house, when he was greeted by a few people.
These people were wearing Cao Jun's clothes and armor, but they were all gray-faced.
Seeing Cao Shuo, they trotted over.
Seeing this, the guards who followed behind Cao Shuo took their long swords halfway out of their sheaths and stepped forward to meet them.
Stopping the guards, Cao Shuo asked the Cao Jun, "What do you look like in a panic?" A fire in your home? ”
"Childe." It was Zhou Hao who ran over, and he smiled shyly: "Last time, I said that my house was on fire and I got so many good things, and today I said that I must be able to get a lot of treasures!" ”
"Found another ancient tomb?" Cao Shuo's eyes lit up: "Where is it?" ”
"Not in Xudu." Zhou Hao said: "Far away! ”
"Then where did you all come from?" Cao Shuo asked.
"I'm in a hurry to come back, I'm too lazy to wash on the way." Zhou Hao said: "We found a big tomb in Chenliu! ”
"Chen Liu?" Cao Shuo asked, "So far?" ”
"Yes!" Zhou Hao said embarrassedly: "I went down to investigate, and it is the tomb of King Liang." There are a lot of traps inside, and there must be a lot of treasures! ”
"Which Liang King?" Cao Shuo asked.
"The son of Emperor Wen of the Great Han Dynasty!" Zhou Hao said: "How can there be a lack of good things in his tomb? ”
