After Zhang Bao left the palace, the little eunuch Xiao Lizi said to Zhang: "My lord, a Taishou gave a thousand gold to that child, is it too cheap for him?" The subordinate should still have gold. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Got gold? He has gold, but all that is left is the coil to go back. Do you think I can't hear the sound of his gold? Besides, it's already very good that Donglai Taishou can sell for a thousand gold. Don't say 1,000 gold, I'll give him 500 gold, do you know why? Zhang Rang glared at Xiao Li Zidao.

Hearing this, Xiao Lizi hurriedly lowered his head and said, "The little one doesn't understand, and I hope the adults will mention it." ”

"Because in the area of Donglai County, the current Yellow Turban power is very rampant, and the imperial court has lost control of it. You say he's a little kid, can he manage there? If he was expecting to scavenge for money there, he would have chosen the wrong place. And will he be able to get there? Zhang Rang said in a strange voice.

Xiao Lizi frowned when he heard this: "My lord, if this is the case, then the kid will lose a lot this time." It's just that it's difficult to find the seal letter of the Taishou of Donglai County. ”

"Hahaha, are you kid flexible enough! You're worrying too much, though. I've been prepared for that. I will write a letter, and you will quickly send someone to hand over the letter to the Jinan Taishou, and tell him that after the matter is completed, our family will thank us for 100 gold, and as for the looted property, we will take half of each. Zhang Rang squinted his eyes and said.

"Subordinates obey!" Xiao Li Zi replied. Zhang Rang went to the imperial study to quickly write a letter, and then handed it to Xiao Lizi, who left quickly.

……

Zhang Bao didn't know what trap Zhang Rang had set for him, and he was in a very good mood at this time, because he exceeded his expectations and won the Taishou of Donglai County.

"It's so important to me! As long as you have your own territory, you will have a place in the next troubled times. However, Qingzhou seems to be a place where yellow turbans are overflowing, and Yanzhou has also been attacked in history. It seems that I have to do some preparation before I take office, otherwise I will be making jokes. Zhang Bao said in his heart.

"Virtuous nephew, your official has already bought it, when are we going to return?" Dian Wei asked suddenly.

Zhang Bao thought: In troubled times, there must be ordnance, and he has a farm that can provide some food, but he must buy ordnance and armor, so he has to get some more gold. At this time, Luoyang is the best place to deal with your own inventory.

Zhang Bao thought clearly and said: "Uncle Dian, let's finally come to Luoyang, and we are not in a hurry to go back." Besides, we're running out of money, so let's make some more money and go back. ”

Hearing this, Dian Wei nodded and said, "Okay! Virtuous nephews are free. So what do we do next? ”

Zhang Bao thought depressedly when she heard this: Why is he so reminiscent. I have been in Luoyang for a month, and I have not seen any other historical celebrities except Cao Cao and Chen Gong. No, there must be more liaison in this regard. Otherwise, how will it be mixed in the future.

After Zhang Bao thought clearly, he looked at Dian Wei's puzzled expression and said, "Uncle Dian, leave the business to Li San and them to do." You can take me around Luoyang and take a good look at this prosperous capital. ”

Dian Wei nodded when he heard this: "Okay." ”

On the second day, after Zhang Bao waited for Li Sanliu to leave, he closed the store, and then walked on the street with Dian Wei.

At first, Zhang Bao really didn't have any goals, and when he saw a blacksmith shop, he walked in.

"This young man, what do you need?" The craftsman saw Zhang Bao coming in and hurriedly greeted.

Zhang Bao first nodded when he heard this, and then looked around in the blacksmith shop. But apart from the various weapons, there was no armor or crossbow arrows he wanted.

"Boss, do you have armor for sale here?" Zhang Bao asked unwillingly after looking for a circle.

Hearing this, the owner of the craftsman shop hurriedly whispered: "Master, be quiet, how dare a small shop sell something like armor, it is an armament, once it is found that it is made privately, it will lose its head." ”

Zhang Bao blinked and smiled when she heard this: "I'm sorry, so that's the case." I really don't know. I was going to buy myself an armor to play with. ”

The owner of the craftsman shop smiled when he heard this: "Hello, master, I'm so interested, but the armor store really doesn't have it." But there are eighteen kinds of weapons, our store has everything, you can choose whatever you like. ”

Zhang Bao shook her head with a smile when she heard this: "Boss, look at my small body, what kind of weapon do you use." Alas, since there is no armor, forget it, farewell. ”

"Master, you two are going well." The owner of the craftsman shop respectfully sent Zhang Bao and the others out.

After Zhang Bao came out, he asked four blacksmith shops in a row, and the answers he got were all the same. And the blacksmith shop for crossbow arrows he asked for also said that he had not seen it.

"Virtuous nephew, you don't need to buy armor and weapons at all now, when you get to Donglai County, you should have all in the treasury." Dian Wei said to Zhang Bao after coming out of the craftsman's shop.

Zhang Bao nodded thoughtfully when he heard this: "Uncle Dian, since there is no need to purchase armor and weapons, then let's go and visit the senior officials in the capital, and we will be familiar with each other in the future." ”

Dian Wei was speechless when he heard this.

The reason why Zhang Bao decided to visit the senior officials in the capital was because he knew that if he wanted to make a name for himself in this era, he must have a certain reputation. And when the reputation is great, there will be talents who take the initiative to invest. Otherwise, none of those awesome characters will look up to you.

Zhang Bao did it when he thought of it. After he inquired about Situ Wangyun's mansion, he decided to visit Situ Wangyun first.

Zhang Bao and Dian Wei came to the door of Situ Wang Yun's mansion, but were stopped by Wang Yun's housekeeper.

Steward Wang: "Two, you came to visit my master, I don't know if there is a famous post?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Bao hurriedly took out a piece of gold and handed it to the palace housekeeper and said: "With the help of Lord Lao, it will be said that Donglai Taishou Zhang Bao brought his uncle Qiandianwei to visit Lord Situ Wang. ”

After taking the gold, the palace housekeeper smiled and said, "Okay, since it is Lord Taishou who is here in person, then I will go and report to Lord Situ, as for whether to see or not, it is not up to me to decide." ”

"Thank you, sir." Zhang Bao hurriedly bowed down and hugged his fists.

……

The inner courtyard of the palace: "My lord, there is a Taishou outside the door who claims to be Donglai County and asks to see a big man. ”

Wang Yun smiled when he heard this: "It's another official buyer, I don't see it!" There is also Steward Wang, don't be a person who comes in to report in the future, and you can directly refuse to this kind of villain who has a few small amounts of money and wants to make friends with the powerful. ”

"Got it, sir." Steward Wang respectfully withdrew after receiving the order.

After Steward Wang came to the outside of the house, he said to Zhang Bao: "I'm sorry for the two, my lord said that he was very busy and didn't have time to see the two." ”

Zhang Bao was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then smiled: "Since Lord Situ is not available, then I will leave first and come back to visit another day." There's a housekeeper. ”

"No, Lord Taishou, my lord doesn't want to see you at all, don't come back in the future." Steward Wang said with a straight face when he heard this.

Zhang Bao frowned slightly when she heard this, and then bowed to Steward Wang, turned around and left.

"Virtuous nephew, it seems that we are too conservative in our identity, and people don't care at all! Why don't we go back? Dian Wei said softly.

Hearing this, Zhang Bao shook his head firmly and said, "No, if Wang Yun doesn't see me, I'll go to see someone younger than him, and someone will always meet me." ”

Dian Wei didn't say anything anymore when he heard this, but just followed Zhang Bao's family to visit one by one. The result is much the same, either they are rejected outright, or after meeting, they find an excuse to send off the guest without saying a few words.

After Zhang Bao was hit one after another, he completely died the heart of visiting dignitaries.

"Uncle Dian, no wonder the court is so corrupt, look at what these people are, there is no attitude of Corporal Lixian at all. Isn't my Taishou still worthy of their friendship? Zhang Bao said depressedly on the way back.

Hearing this, Dian Wei first sighed, and then said with a straight face: "Virtuous nephew, your method is right. The fault is that you shouldn't visit them now. You should wait until you have achieved something. It should be much better then than it is now. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Bao immediately stopped his steps, looked at Dian Wei appreciatively and nodded: "Uncle Dian is so right. Since they don't want to see me, then let's stop looking for sin. In the future, let's have a good time in Luoyang. ”

Dian Wei was speechless when he heard this. Zhang Bao stopped talking, and the two walked silently to the residence.
