Chapter 42: Jia Xu's Visit
87_87603As the days passed, the atmosphere in Luoyang City became more and more tense.
Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty let Dong Zhuo go, but did not return Dong Zhuo's loyalty, but waited for Xiliang's 100,000 troops. Although Ye Mo knew that this situation would occur before, but when this happened, Ye Mo was still a little sad. In war, it will be ordinary people who will suffer.
Although the previous continuous heavy snow stopped the pace of the Xiliang army, it eased the course of the war. But taking advantage of the heavy snowfall, Dong Zhuo attracted many families in Luoyang City, and even many officials in the court. As for Yuan Shao, he didn't need Dong Zhuo to find him, he just pasted it upside down.
The New Year is approaching, Ye Mo and his party are walking on the street, but they can't see the atmosphere of the New Year. There are occasional vendors on both sides, but there is really no rice at home, so they have to risk that Dong Zhuo's army may attack the city at any time, and set up a small stall to earn some money for some rice and go home for the New Year.
Walking on the street also gave Ye Mo a feeling of shopping in his previous life. Suddenly, Ye Mo walked to a stall on the side of the road, picked up a red lantern, looked exquisite, and asked, "Old man, how can this lantern be sold?" ”
The old man who set up the stall is a craftsman, and he likes to make some bells and whistles on weekdays. These lanterns were made by himself while the farm was slack, and when the year was over, he wanted to take them out for a few dollars. But I never thought that at the end of the year, it was a day to prepare for large-scale procurement, but I didn't see a few people on the streets of Luoyang. If you take it back directly, it will be in vain, and you will simply try your luck with a stall.
"This lantern little old man was going to sell one of ten copper plates, but he didn't expect that no one would come to buy it. If this young master wants to buy it, then ...... How about nine, no, eight, eight copper plates? The old man originally wanted to say nine copper plates, but he was afraid that Ye Mo, the first batch of guests today, would have reluctantly reduced another copper plate.
Ye Mo saw that it was hard for this old man to wait here, so he said, "I won't take advantage of you, just ten copper plates." How many of them do you have, send them all to my house. ”
When the old man heard this, he was also happy. I've seen bargaining, but this is the first time I've seen someone take the initiative to raise prices. And this is still a big customer, and he actually wants all these thirty or so lanterns. "Okay, then please ask this young master to show me the way, and the little old man will send these lanterns to your house."
"Ye Er, you accompany this old man on a trip, and remember to go to the account room to withdraw the old man's lantern money, ten copper plates and one lantern, don't be less." Ye Mo saw that the old man was going to send things to the house, so he asked Ye Er to lead the way back. Ye Er heard Ye Mo say this, so he helped the old man get some lanterns and walked in the direction of home.
After buying the lanterns, Ye Mo started to buy groceries again. Walk to the door of a grocery store and look at the dazzling array of snacks, another binge of shopping. I don't know if you still remember the reason why the protagonist crossed.,It's because I only remember to eat and forget to go to the counselor.,The result is that the occurrence of that palm.。 Now the protagonist Ye Mo sees that the food is another random purchase, which shows that foodies will be foodies wherever they are.
Seeing that Ye San and the others were already full of things in their hands, Ye Mo gave up the idea of continuing to purchase and began to walk home. Along the way, everyone carrying things thought in their minds: I didn't expect the young master (lord) to have such a strong desire to buy, and this kind of thing must be skipped in the future. Ye Mo thought in his mind: It turns out that shopping is so cool, no wonder those girls in the previous life like to go shopping so much.
When he was about to walk to the door, Ye Mo found that an old man was standing at the door, and he didn't leave or enter the door. When he got closer, Ye Mo hurriedly saluted: "Mo has seen Mr. Wenhe, how is Mr. Wenhe doing lately?" Since you're here, why don't you go into the burrow? ”
Watching Ye Mo salute, Jia Xu was also glad to accept it, if it is discussed, when he was in Gaoling City, he helped Ye Mo take the table words, he was originally an elder, and now as an elder, why not accept a salute from a junior. "Guiyi hasn't come back yet, and it's boring for the old man to enter your house, so it's better to stand here and be comfortable."
"Then now that Mo is back, Mr. Wenhe will please please come inside."
"You and I have been separated for a few months, and now I will borrow your treasure land to tell the story of these months." Jia Xu originally came to find Ye Mo, and now Ye Mo wants to reminisce with him, so what else is there to say.
The two entered the Ye Mansion and sat down in the living room, and the two of them talked about their experiences in the past few months. When Ye Mo talked about the conflict with the Wei family, Jia Xu first asked the reason for the conflict with the Wei family, and then scolded the Wei family villain, shameless.
When it was said that the Ten Standing Attendants came to them because of the conflict with the Wei family, Jia Xu did not react, as if he had expected the Ten Standing Attendants to do this. But when Ye Mo said that he just asked for the identity of a second prince teacher for Ye Que, Jia Xu had to sigh at Ye Mo's foresight. If it weren't for the fact that he knew about the development of things later, I'm afraid everyone would think that the Ye family was nothing more than that. But who would have expected that Liu Wei, the son-in-law, failed to succeed to the emperor, but Liu Xie succeeded to the throne.
After that, Ye Mo talked about his accidental attack in Jizhou, and Jia Xu frowned. But then mentioned that after Koji Yi saved himself, he recognized himself as the master, and Jia Xu's face was full of smiles. Speaking of Liyi's forced back from the pursuing soldiers with open jaws, Jia Xu was surprised again and again, and Dao Liyi must be extremely good at training troops, and he is a rare material for commanding troops.
Speaking of commanding troops, Jia Xu knew that Xu Rongnai was the most outstanding commander in his life in the Xiliang Army. In the Xiliang Army, there are not a few generals who can overwhelm Xu Rong in terms of force, but no one dares to say that they can lead the same number of troops to defeat Xu Rong.
After leaving Jizhou, Ye Mo returned to Luoyang, and Jia Xu had heard most of the things after returning to Luoyang, and there was no need to listen to Ye Mo again.
And Jia Xu's life in the past few months has been much simpler, that is, he hangs out when he is bored, and he depends on whether he does it or not. Li Ru came to solicit and shirked, but if he couldn't push it, just kidding, couldn't he push it?
After the two finished talking about their respective experiences in the past few months, it made Ye Mo have a special emotion, as if Jia Xu was his elder. After all, how many people in this world can listen to your story? And the person will also have an emotional change because of your story.
"I want Mr. Wen and to come to Mo not only to talk about the experience of the past few months." After chatting about their experiences, Ye Mo asked.
Looking at Ye Mo, Jia Xu smiled and said, "The old man came over and wanted to ask you how to deal with Dong Zhuo." ”
Hearing Jia Xu say this, Ye Mo also laughed, and told Jia Xu about how to deal with Dong Zhuo that he had discussed with Ye Que before.
Jia Xu listened to Ye Mo's words, and nodded again and again, already approving. After Ye Mo finished speaking, Jia Xu said: "Why don't you contact Lu Zhi and the others, and use the private soldiers of these courtiers loyal to Emperor Han Xian to prevent those who are wrongdoers." ”
After listening to Jia Xu's words, Ye Mo suddenly realized and said, "Thank you Mr. Wenhe for reminding him!" ”
This should be said and should not be said, then it is time to get down to business. Jia Xu looked at Ye Mo, the expression on his face suddenly became stern, and said, "Li Ru wants to see you." ”
Hearing Jia Xu say this, Ye Mo's pupils contracted for a while, and his face was full of incredulity
