Chapter 409: Zhongshan Giant

(Ask for a recommendation ticket!!) )
Zhongshan Sushi!
Sure enough, it was the Zhongshan Su family......
Let's just say, the Zhongshan family still has a little grudge with themselves, and it seems that there is only the Su family of the Zhongshan country. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Four years ago, Cao Peng's brother Zhu Zan was killed, and Cao Peng was ordered to take the position of lieutenant in the north of Luoyang to find Zhu Zan's murderer. There have been many twists and turns, many things have happened, and a lot of people have died. The small Luoyang involved a wide range of people, including the people of the Su clan in Zhongshan, who participated in it and assisted Liu Bei in his actions.
Later, the case was solved.
Chen Qun intensified his management of Luoyang, causing the Su family to lose a foothold in Luoyang.
However, at the time, Su Shi did not react. Although they are engaged in business, their foundation is not in the south of the river, but in the north of the river. Hebei was under the rule of Yuan Shao, and the Su clan naturally did not worry about the Cao clan's retaliation. Besides, the battle of Guandu has not broken out, and almost everyone in the world thinks that Yuan Shao will win, how can the Su clan venture to contact Cao Peng?
Only later......
Yuan Shao was defeated, and Hebei was in danger.
Yuan Shang and Yuan Tan fought endlessly, increasing the exploitation of Hebei merchants.
Under such circumstances, the impact of Su Shi can be imagined. As a Hebei giant, he naturally became the fat in the eyes of Er Yuan. Su Shuang's partner Zhang Shiping, who was also a giant of the Zhongshan Kingdom, finally decided to rebel because he couldn't stand it. It's a pity that before he could get into trouble, he was noticed by the Yuan family and was killed all over the house.
Because of the close relationship between Su and Zhang Shiping, he was suppressed by Yuan.
Fortunately, the Su family's horses are different from the iron tools handled by Zhang Shiping. Su Shuang purchased horses from the Hu people and had close ties with the Hu people. It is precisely for this reason that the Yuan family does not dare to oppress too much. But even so, the Su clan was under tremendous pressure, and it was almost impossible to gain a foothold in Zhongshan Country......
Cao Peng has no hostility towards the Su family.
The two families used to be their own masters, and it was impossible to say who was right and who was wrong.
On the contrary, he was very interested in Su Shuang as a person. This guy's shot is really generous, how did he save a lot of money and assist Liu Bei to start a business? Or, what considerations did he have for taking a fancy to Liu Beifei's things in the pool?
This guy's vision is not bad!
"Su Gong, in the past, I was my master, and I didn't have any grievances.
Just, how did you come here? If you are afraid of my revenge, why do you want to see me? ”
Su Shuang smiled bitterly and toasted Cao Peng with a glass of wine.
"Su Gong's son, Shuangshi doesn't dare to be.
At the beginning of the change in Luoyang, Su failed to react in time. Later, I wanted to contact my son, but I had no way. I came this time to buy horses from Lord Tan. I didn't want to learn from the conversation that Childe was actually in Hexi. Therefore, he cheekily asked Lord Tan to introduce him on his behalf, and asked Gongzi to blame, and if he was offended before, he asked Gongzi not to blame. ”
After the official crossing, Cao Peng was dismissed from his official position because of the completion of the ambush and was ordered to think about it behind closed doors at home.
As for Cao Peng himself, he is also deliberately very low-key, and there are almost no ends with the outside world. So at that time, Su Shuang intended to repair the relationship with Cao Peng, but he didn't know where to start. But I don't want to, the two will meet in this red sand hill......
Tan Zhe said: "I need a large number of weapons, and I don't need to worry about you, brother."
Su Shuang and I have worked together for many years, so naturally we know what I need. It's just that it's a hassle to ship. In the past, we could pass through the territory of the Southern Xiongnu, but now that the Southern Xiongnu are in the midst of civil strife, this route is no longer safe.
Mr. Su hopes to open up a new trade route, with Hedong passing through Hexi, to deliver goods to me......
In Hedong, Mr. Su will take care of it. But this Hexi ...... When he mentioned it to me, I thought of my brother. I also know my brother's predicament, Mr. Su is also in trouble now, and I will also have a lot of trouble when I go out of Mobei next year. In that case, you and I might as well cooperate. As long as the brother is willing to help, other things can be discussed. ”
Smuggle!
This guy actually smuggles ironware.
Cao Peng looked at Su Shuang, but saw that Su Shuang's gaze was extremely sincere.
"Childe may wonder where I got my iron tools.
Quite simply, Zhongshan Guo was responsible for manufacturing weapons to the Yuan clan...... Now Yuan Shang needs a lot of horses, and he relies on me. After Zhang Shiping's death, the iron business he ran was taken over by my Su family. Through this channel, I can deliver all kinds of items to Tan-sama that he needs. I also heard what Childe and Tan-sama said just now...... Su can accept this matter, and at the same time, he can also provide all kinds of items that the son needs. As far as Gongzi is concerned, just by opening the Hexi Passage, a lot of troubles can be solved, I don't know ......"
Cao Peng fell into deep thought.
"What I need most now is labor and troops, and I am in a hurry......"
Su Shuang, looked at Tan Zhe.
Tan Zhe smiled, "What's so difficult about this, my subordinates can immediately give my brother two thousand slaves, I don't know what my brother thinks?" ”
"As long as the son needs it, Su can also help."
"That'...... What do I need to do? ”
"In addition to opening the Hexi road, Su also hopes to ask the son to give him a name."
"Title?"
Cao Peng immediately understood.
The so-called name is a banner.
Presumably, Su Shuang wants to open up the Hedong access road, and it is also a little troublesome.
Today's Hedong is controlled by Cao Cao. Hedong Taishou is Cao Ren......
In addition, there are soldiers and horses from all walks of life stationed in Hedong, and Xu Huang and Gan Ning are all in Hedong. If Su Shuang does not have a banner, then the price to be paid if he wants to open up the Hedong trade route will be amazing. And it doesn't always work out.
For Cao Peng, there seems to be no loss.
But in fact, if Su Shuang uses his name to do evil, it will still have a great impact.
Cao Peng didn't know about the situation of the Su family.
took the liberty of lending the banner to Su Shuang, and Cao Peng couldn't help but have many concerns.
"Let me think twice about this."
"Brother, what else do you have to think about, in my opinion......"
Tan Zhe was a little anxious and wanted to persuade him.
But Su Shuang waved his hand at him, which meant that he said: Don't push too hard, I'll handle this matter.
Tan Zhe, only then closed his mouth.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The wine banquet in the evening was a little unhappy.
Cao Peng didn't promise anything in the end, only said that he needed to think about it.
Tan Zhe arranged a residence for Cao Peng, and everyone went to rest......
Jade Rabbit Eastrise!
A bright moon hangs high on Helan Mountain.
The night is getting deeper, and the red sand gang is shrouded in the night and gradually falls silent. A figure quietly came to Cao Peng's tent.
The visitor found that there were no guards outside Cao Peng's tent, and his heart couldn't help but move, and he immediately understood.
"Su Shuang, ask to see General Beizhonglang."
"Come in."
Su Shuangyi lifted the curtain and walked into the tent.
I saw that the tent was brightly lit, and Cao Peng sat on the couch, looking at Su Shuang, with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Su, I came to visit late at night, I don't know if you have any advice?"
Who knows, Na Su Shuang knelt down with a puff, and said in pain: "Childe, save me!" ”
"What is the reason for this, sir?"
Su Shuang kowtowed repeatedly, his face showing horror.
"Childe Gao Zhi, I guessed that Su would come tonight.
Don't hide it from the son, if it weren't for the fact that the son was in Hexi from Tan Zhe's mouth, Su would have prepared to move his family to Mobei next year. ”
"Oh?"
Cao Peng stepped forward and helped Su Shuang up.
"Mr. Su, as far as I know, the Zhongshan Su clan is also a big family.
Although it is not a famous family, it has a deep foundation in Zhongshan Kingdom. Why did the gentleman suddenly think that he wanted to flee from Zhongshan Kingdom? ”
Su Shuang stepped on the ground and sat down, and said with a wry smile: "But if there is a way to live, how can Su Shuang be willing to leave his hometown?"
Gongzi doesn't know that the situation in Hebei is now rotten. In the early years, when Yuan Gong was alive, although he was wary of us and other businessmen, he still had a way to live. But after Yuan Gong died, Yuan Shangshao did not do anything more, and he had a hard time fighting with Yuan Tan...... At the same time, he listened to the advice of his advisers and suppressed us and other businessmen very heavily. I, the Su family, have been a businessman for many years, and I can be regarded as having some family background. Can...... On the one hand, Yuan Shangxiaoer ordered us to donate money and food, and on the other hand, he continued to exploit ...... My old friend Zhang Shiping was almost bankrupt by the exploitation, and he was forced to rebel as a last resort. I've taken over his iron business now, and if it weren't for the fact that there was still a horse source, I was afraid that I would have rebelled! ”
Cao Peng pondered for a moment, "If it's just like this, you don't have to leave your hometown?" ”
Su Shuangdao: "The Yuan family should die, and Cao Gong should be prosperous."
I was forced to assist the Yuan family, if Cao Gong was in Hebei, how could I live? Although the Su family has some roots in Zhongshan Kingdom, it is not a famous family after all. When the Yuan family perished, I am afraid that it will be the day when my Su family is full of trouble.
I thought about it, and I wanted to take this opportunity to buy a horse for Yuan Shang to go to Mobei to find a way to survive......
I just heard that Tan Zhe was also going to Mobei, so I moved my mind. However, since Gongzi is in Hexi, Su wants to come, instead of going to Mobei, it is better to go to Gongzi. Su is willing to use the wealth of the Su family to seek a foothold in Hexi. ”
Cao Peng understood!
Su Shuang is scared......
In history, what is the ending of Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping?
Cao Peng didn't know too well.
However, the demise of Zhang Shiping's family must be in line with history; And Su Shuang's final result is likely to be to flee to Saiwai.
Shangjia, Shangjia......
If you want Hexi to develop, businessmen are indispensable.
At that time, Deng Ji was able to govern Haixi properly, and he also had the support of the nine major guilds.
And now, Cao Peng wants to govern Hexi well, how can he succeed without businessmen? In contrast, Huang Wenqing and others in Haixi are far inferior to Su Shuang. At least, Su Shuang is a figure who has left a name in history.
Su Shuang took out a roll of bamboo slips from his arms and presented them with both hands.
"Su said at the banquet that he borrowed the banner of his son, and he really wanted to offer his family property."
In ancient times, presenting a list of family property was equivalent to wanting Cao Peng's allegiance......
Cao Peng took the bamboo slip and didn't open it to check it.
"Su Shuang, it's not that I don't want to accept your Su family, it's really the situation I'm currently facing, and I'm not optimistic."
Su Shuangwen laughed, "The people that this son is worried about are just the population.
Tan Zhe has some slaves in his hands, but in Su's opinion, it is just a drop in the bucket with his son. It may be able to stabilize temporarily, but in the long run, Gongzi still needs a larger population to suppress those forces in Hexi.
There is a plan for the double, or it can relieve the worries of the son......" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to ***(***.***) to vote for recommendation, ***, your support is my biggest motivation. )
