Chapter 12: The Girl Under the Moon
"It's also a waste for Jian Yong and Sun Qian to stay here, bring them back to Wanling, and I will personally write a letter of recommendation to Xun Biao and Lu Kang, and they will arrange their positions as appropriate. Mi Zhu and Mi Fang...... Let's stay in the army and help manage logistics! Li Ming looked at the actual situation of the four people, and then instructed Wang Yu.
"I'll arrange it!" Wang Yu nodded and replied, "Lord, you seem to value the Mi brothers very much?" ”
"I care a little about ......" Li Ming did not deny it, otherwise it would be a bit of a desire to cover up, "As for the specific reason, I can't say what the specific reason is." ”
"Well, since you have a plan, then as a subordinate, I don't have the right to interfere too much." Wang Yu replied, said goodbye and left, and had already begun to evaluate the Mi brothers in his heart.
As a subordinate, the preferences and interests of the boss often have to be figured out. The Mi brothers are considered to be an emerging family in Xuzhou, and the fifth ancestor appeared as a county official, so he began to have land and opened a grain store.
Over the past few generations, the land has been expanding, and the grain store has become bigger and bigger, and I have to admit that this is a family with high commercial talent. It is also because of this that from that great-ancestor, from the Mi family to Mi Zhu's generation, there have never been officials, even county officials.
Mi Zhu is a business genius as well as an investment genius. Tao Qian paid tribute as soon as he took the throne and successfully became a different driver.
As for Mi Fang, since he was a martial artist, his family has given him a lot of resources, but unfortunately his talent is not good, and the deputy generals are very reluctant. The point is that everything else is mediocre and there is nothing to look forward to.
So the point is Mi Zhu? This guy who is proficient in business and accounting is a financial expert, but his level is not as good as Kong Cheng, who is the state chief bookkeeper, he is a candidate for the bookkeeper Cao Cao trained by Li Ming, and it is estimated that he will be in the position in the past two years.
In fact, it's not just Wang Yu, Li Ming suddenly has such a big concern about Mi Zhu, Guo Jia and others will naturally investigate. In the end, Guo Jia brought a bottle of wine into Jia Xu's room, and only then did he get a message from the old fox: Mi Zhu has a younger sister.
It is said that Guo Jia, who knew the news at the time, showed a strange smile. According to the soldier who saw the smile, the smile ...... Well...... It's a bit obscene, and at the same time a little ridiculous.
The gossip spread like this, and before going north to crusade against Cao Cao, many people knew one thing, that is, Mi Zhu had a younger sister. The key is this sister, it seems that Li Ming is very interested. The news was like this at first, but when it came to the back, it became: Li Ming coveted Mi Zhu's sister, so he valued Mi so much.
"Is the news true?" Mi Fang looked at her brother excitedly, if this is the case, then their Mi clan will inevitably rise again.
"Rumors are not credible!" Mi Zhu shook his head, "Li Ming has never been to Xuzhou, and he doesn't know much about the Mi family, how do you know that we have a younger sister?" You forgot, when Guan Yu introduced the two of us, Li Ming obviously knew us for the first time! ”
"It turned out to be a fake!" Mi Fang was suddenly disappointed again.
"There is no ground, since there is news coming out, then there will naturally be a basis. Since Xiaomei is also interested in Li Ming, then we might as well be beautiful...... Alas, if it was before, the dowry would definitely not be less, and it would definitely make the little sister marry beautifully, so she would have to be a wife. Now it's good that the rise of our Mi clan has to be placed on her, a weak woman. Mi Zhu said slowly, and in the end, it was inevitable that he was a little speechless.
"The day after tomorrow, we are about to go north, let the sons and daughters prepare!" Li Ming arranged the government affairs of Xiapi and Guangling, and then said to Wang Yu. Tao Qian was still there before, and he couldn't interfere openly, but now he doesn't have this concern.
Under the slogan of avenging Tao Qian, taking over the territory of Xuzhou is too morally commanding. Yes, anyway, the real bad guy is Cao Cao, who burned and plundered all the way. I heard that for the sake of military spending, he also appointed Captain Mojin and Faqiu Zhonglang to dig up the tombs of many royal families and nobles in Xuzhou.
The slaughter of the city was already angry and resentful, and the ancestral graves were dug up, which immediately made the family in Xuzhou hate Cao Cao to the core. It doesn't matter whether he plays the banner of avenging his father or not, anyway, he is a public enemy in Xuzhou.
Those who fight against him, even if they are hooligans, will become good friends of the people of Xuzhou. If the ruling attitude is more amiable and treats them better, then they can join them unconditionally and contribute their loyalty.
"This has been prepared, Zhou Shang will come over tomorrow, and then we will be able to go north with peace of mind!" Wang Yu replied.
"Well, don't let our rear have problems, and have a good rest these two nights!" Li Ming nodded, and after completing his daily martial arts training and military affairs, he also returned to his room.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening, and the room was dark, except for the moonlight shining through the window. The weather is a little cold after autumn, and to be honest, Li Ming actually doesn't like to open windows.
"Maybe we should study the glass, otherwise the lighting problem will be a problem." Li Ming thought about it carefully, and then suddenly looked at the bed.
A figure, pulling the quilt, slowly got up and looked at him. Almost instantly, Li Ming thought of the possibility of an 'assassin', but when he saw the figure of the other party, he couldn't help but be stunned.
It was a young girl, sixteen or seventeen years old, but she was well developed, and the quilt could not hide her figure. Judging from the skin exposed by the quilt, she should be a trace at the moment. The state of not hanging.
"Who are you?" Li Ming breathed a sigh of relief and slowly came to the bedside, I have to say that this is a beautiful girl. But he wasn't hungry, especially when dealing with a guy of unknown origin.
He doesn't want to be outstanding in exposure. When he was lustful, he was suddenly pulled out a dagger on the pillow or somewhere by the little girl in front of him and pierced his heart. It's not that you're going to die, it's going to break and stain your clothes, and the key is that it hurts.
"The little girl Mi Zhen is Mi Zhu's younger sister...... Mi Zhen saluted slowly, "The Hou Ye is out on the expedition, and there is no one to accompany him on the pillow, so he specially recommends the pillow seat...... Please also ...... Please also have mercy on the Hou Ye......"
"Your brother asked you to come?" Li Ming came to the bedside, looked at the slightly trembling girl, and asked casually.
As far as he knew, ninety percent of Mi Zhu's huge family property had been snatched away by Cao Cao, and he had changed from a wealthy businessman to a poor family. From Sima from other departments to a humble scholar, Mi Zhu will definitely not be able to accept it, and he will definitely find a way to rise again. There are very few cards he can play in his hand at the moment, and Mi Zhen is the most important card. It's just that if Mi Zhu sent Mi Zhen over for the sake of the upper position, he would only despise Mi Zhu!
Mi Zhen has been spoiled at home by her two older brothers since she was a child, where has she ever been so displaced as she is now? It was only because the man in front of her was her favorite object, and because it was related to the future of the Mi family, that she was cheeky and recommended herself as a pillow. But now in the eyes of this man, she doesn't see any love and pity at all, but deep suspicion.
Suddenly, a heart was hurt, and she immediately covered her face with the quilt and cried in a low voice: "I...... Woohoo......"
Li Ming was stunned when he saw this, there were so many women in the family, of course he could see that this little girl was really coming by himself, and it had nothing to do with Mi Zhu, even if he did, it didn't matter much, and he was immediately embarrassed when he saw this.
"This ...... Let's talk......" Li Ming sat on the head of the bed, hugged Mi Zhen, and whispered.
