Chapter 42 Encountering Miss Xue's Family

When Xue Ren followed the housekeeper into Xue Hu's study, outside Xue's mansion, Cheng Yu also walked into Yang Yun's teahouse as promised, which was still the same old position yesterday. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

On the second floor, Cheng Yu saw Yang Yun looking out of the window with a dull gaze, and was a little surprised: "Qiming, what are you thinking, why do you have time to ask me over today." ”

"Heh, Mr. Zhongde is here." Hearing his voice, Yang Yun withdrew his divergent gaze, turned around and stood up, "Sir, please take a seat." ”

After Cheng Yu sat down, Yang Yun said: "I took the liberty to let people come to the door last night, and I hope Mr. will forgive me." ”

"Qiming, we don't have to be so polite between us." Cheng Yu waved his hand, straightened up and said seriously, "Is there anything you need me to help with?" ”

"Uh...... It's not that I want to ask my husband for help. Yang Yun poured tea for Cheng Yu, and said after a while, "I just want to talk to you about the Qingzhou Yellow Turban." ”

"Qingzhou Yellow Turban? What's wrong? Cheng Yu was still worried about the yellow scarf last night, and when he heard it at the moment, he immediately concentrated.

"Mr. Zhongde, you also know that there are people coming and going in my teahouse, and you can always hear some gossip."

In order to prevent Cheng Yu from pursuing the source of the news, Yang Yun first made an explanation, and then said: "I heard that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban has withdrawn from Taishan County. ”

"So fast?" Cheng Yu's movements on his hand froze, and he was not happy, but frowned, "Didn't you get repelled before you got close to Fenggao?" ”

"It's said that there were several battles." Yang Yun dipped his index finger in some tea, wrote and drew on the table, pointed to the dividing line between Qingzhou and Taishan County, and said, "The Qingzhou Yellow Turban went south from here, and after raiding Ying County, it continued to go south. ”

Yang Yun drew a river below Yingxian, and a circle was drawn on the other side of the river, representing Fenggao: "Ying Shao led the civil and military forces of the whole county, and the soldiers were divided into two roads, one way crossed the river in advance, went around Yingxian, and the other road was ambushed along the river." ”

"Wait until the Yellow Turban crosses the river." Yang Yun drew a few arrows, "The county soldiers who first contacted were defeated, and after attracting most of the Yellow Turbans to go deeper, they joined forces with the county soldiers on both sides to defeat the Yellow Turbans after a few hours of fighting." ”

"On the other hand, there were more than 3,000 county soldiers, and after recapturing Yingxian, they went south, wanting to outflank the Yellow Turbans, but they unexpectedly encountered the elite of the Yellow Turbans, and they were defeated, and only a few hundred people fled back to Yingxian in the end."

"The Yellow Turban, who successfully broke through, did not take Ying County again, but withdrew from Taishan County, returned to Qingzhou, and raided the counties around Dongpingling."

"After this battle, Taishan County repelled the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, and also gained tens of thousands of people, but they were all old, weak, sick and disabled."

"What does Qiming mean......" Cheng Yu's two thick eyebrows were almost squeezed together, "Qingzhou Yellow Turban, this is a broken tail to survive?" Lost all the baggage to Taishan County? ”

"It's hard to say, but it's possible." Yang Yun rubbed his face, "Now that the cold winter is coming, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban wants to break through and is blocked on three sides, this year must be difficult." ”

"Qiming thinks that the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is preserving its strength and is ready to finish its work in one battle?" Cheng Yu finally understood the purpose of Yang Yun calling him, "Take Yanzhou?" ”

"Bingzhou is barren, Qingzhou is held by Tian Kai and Kong Rong, Jizhou is now Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan are facing off, only Yanzhou is left, and now the soldiers are sufficient."

"After they enter Yanzhou, they can go down to Yangzhou in the south, and they can join Chaoge's Montenegrin army in the west." Yang Yun drew two arrows to the left of Fenggao, "But no matter which way they go, it will inevitably affect Dong'e." ”

As he spoke, Yang Yun drew a circle between the two arrows, which was Dong'e City.

"Of course, this is all just speculation." After Cheng Yu saw the situation clearly, Yang Yun quickly wiped it and wiped off the water stains on the table, "Maybe the Qingzhou Yellow Turban is complacent and left to fend for itself." ”

"But I think you should always be prepared for the worst." Yang Yun looked at Cheng Yu, wanting to know his decision.

Cheng Yu stroked his chin and pondered for a moment, as if weighing the pros and cons: "What does Qiming think, what should we do?" ”

"Store grain, build walls."

"Grain storage is due, but you can build ......a wall," Cheng Yu hesitated, "You also said that the cold winter is coming, and it is difficult to find enough coolies in this weather." ”

"As for labor, I have already thought about it." Yang Yun smiled and changed him to a cup of hot tea, "Sir, look out the window." ”

Cheng Yu braved the cold wind and stuck his head out, only to see the beggars on the street holding the torn quilt and shivering: "They? ”

"Not bad." Yang Yun's gaze stayed on them, "The county government can use grain to replace the wages of the workers, so that not only can you get a lot of free labor, but also save a few more lives, isn't it the best of both worlds?" ”

"That being said, how much food does this consume?"

"It doesn't have much food." Yang Yun didn't expect the city to selflessly help these displaced people, even Cheng Yu couldn't do it, "For them, it's already thankful that they can eat a few white nests every day." ”

"In this case, I still need to discuss it with the county commander." Cheng Yu thought about it for a while, so that he could agree to it.

At this time, a guy brought a pot of roast chicken, and Yang Yun eased the atmosphere: "Mr. Zhongde, try it?" This is our new product coming soon. ”

"It smells good." Cheng Yu, instigated by Yang Yun's deviance, is also accustomed to the routine of three meals a day, at this moment noon has passed, he is just a little hungry, looking at the golden skin, fragrant delicious, do not shirk, tear off a piece of chicken, and taste it carefully.

"Little Er!"

"Eh, here we are."

"We also want a roast chicken from that table."

"I'm sorry, two young ladies, but the roast chicken is not available in our store."

"Then they ......"

"That boy is our boss......"

Cheng Yu hadn't made a comment yet, and the customers at the table behind them seemed to smell the fragrance and shouted that they wanted to eat roast chicken too. Yang Yun looked at the past strangely, in this era, it is still rare for girls to go out together.

"Hehe, it turned out to be Ah Yu and Ah Yi." What made him even more strange was that Cheng Yu could still call their names, "It's better to sit down." ”

The two are naturally Xue Yu and Xue Yi.

"Okay."

Xue Yu glanced at Yang Yun, and was still a little hesitant, but Xue Yi had already walked over with a big grin, there was no way, she had to blush slightly, walked to Cheng Yu's table, and was blessed: "Mr. Zhongde." ”

Then, she turned to face Yang Yun and blinked, not knowing what to call for a while.

Seeing her embarrassment, Cheng Yu smiled and hurriedly introduced: "Ah Yu, this is the owner of the tea room, Yang Yun, Yang Qiming. ”

"Ah, I've seen Yang Gongzi." Xue Yu breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed.

On the other side, Xue Yi heard Yang Yun's name, but he snorted: "It turns out that you are the man who is not doing his job and has no fame, and was picked up by Li Manying?" ”

"Uh...... I guess that's the man. Yang Yun touched his nose and watched Xue Yu's tightly pursed mouth slowly turn round.
