Shi Tianhua of Le'an touched his chin, and said first with a shrewd face: "Lord Qiqi, my subordinates feel that Wei Shuo is not an ordinary person, and he can give such a generous gift to the lord so happily, which shows that his intentions are not small." ”

Unexpectedly, Cao Wei waved his hand disapprovingly and said: "I don't care what Wei Shuo is planning, at the moment I only care about the construction of Guanggu City." In the next few years, the most important task of the Assassin's Mansion is to successfully complete the construction of Guanggu City. As long as Wei Shuo can do what he promised at the banquet, what if the official gives Laoshan to him? ”

Speaking of which, Cao Wei really doesn't have much ambition, and his years of rogue career have made him tired of fighting. Now Cao Wei's greatest wish is to complete the construction of Guanggu City as soon as possible, and then live his own life by guarding one acre and three points of land in Qingzhou. So he wasn't too interested in what Wei Shuo had planned, after all, in his opinion, if it weren't for Qingyan, the little Yantian envoy wouldn't be enough to stand in front of Cao Wei.

Li Mao could see that Cao Wei lacked enough vigilance against Wei Shuo, and seemed to be a little bit of a weapon against the other party, as an old subordinate who had followed Cao Wei for many years, he knew how to reply in an instant.

"What the lord said is very true, Laoshan is just a corner of the land after all, and no matter how much Wei Shuo tosses, he can't escape from the palm of the lord's hand. Now that he is willing to give some of the green salt, it is enough to show that this man does not want to be our enemy. At present, Qingzhou is still the most important thing to maintain stability, and it is not appropriate to make a fuss about a trivial matter. ”

"Besides, those Qingzhou families are hoping that the lord will fall out with Wei Shuo, so that they will have the opportunity to meddle in Laoshan Qingyan."

"Hmm~" Cao Wei listened to Li Mao's words and nodded with satisfaction, feeling that these words had been said to his heart. In addition, Cao Wei still had a secret thing in his heart that Wei Shuo needed to do, so he showed his favor for Wei Shuo at the banquet.

……

The next day, as soon as Wei Shuo came together, he was invited to the Assassin's Mansion by someone sent by Cao Wei, apparently to reward him for his meritorious contribution to cement sacrifice, but in fact, Cao Wei had some confidential matters that needed to be discussed with Wei Shuo in detail.

Coming to the Assassin's Mansion, Wei Shuo, led by the servants, passed through many corridors and corners, and finally stopped in a garden. In the middle of the garden, there is a hexagonal pavilion, and Cao Wei is drinking alone in the pavilion at this time.

"Humble Wei Shuo, see Lord Assassin!"

"Master Wei, please get up!" When Cao Wei saw Wei Shuo, he immediately put down the wine bottle and said with a smile on his face: "Yesterday, the cement you offered was very useful. After mixing with water, I don't want to be as hard as a stone this morning. With the help of this divine object, the official has a little more confidence in the construction of Guanggu City. ”

"Huh~ This is the best, please rest assured that your subordinates will expand production after they go back, and strive to provide enough cement for Lord Thorn Shi as soon as possible."

"Well, you can be so attentive, this official is very satisfied. Come on, Lord Wei, sit down and have a drink with the official. ”

Cao Wei warmly invited, Wei Shuo didn't dare to refuse, so he had to sit in the first place. I saw Cao Wei wave his hand, and the maids and servants who were waiting for him around him retreated one after another, and after a while, only Wei Shuo and Cao Wei were left in the entire garden.

"Lord Wei, this official knows what you are worried about, but you can rest assured, as long as this official stays in the assassination position for a day, you don't have to worry about someone beating you Laoshan idea."

Cao Wei's words suddenly made Wei Shuo break out in a cold sweat, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground, thanking him in his mouth. Seeing Wei Shuo with a trembling face, Cao Wei felt very satisfied.

He then said amiably: "I know that the Wei people have the talent to go through the heavens and the earth, and the cement and cement made are the most important weapons of the country, which can be used not only to repair the city, but also to build passes. After the banquet, many henchmen encouraged the official to build his workshop in Linzi to take care of it nearby. ”

"This official has been through a hundred battles, how can he not see the great use of cement, but this official has never thought of taking it for himself. In the opinion of this official, it is better to put cement in the hands of Lord Wei. ”

Now Wei Shuo was really scared to tremble, it seems that he still underestimated the IQ of the ancients. Cao Wei didn't look so incompetent, but he was a little puzzled, since the other party knew the importance of cement, why didn't he move?

Cao Wei seemed to know the doubts in Wei Shuo's heart, and he continued: "I have no ambition to dominate the world, but the situation forced me to embark on a road of rebellion. Now that Qingzhou is seized, it is even more fortunate that I dare not expect anything else. Cement in my hands will not only not be a help, but on the contrary, it will cause endless trouble. ”

This is the truest thought in Cao Wei's heart, he is indeed afraid of causing trouble. Which one of the cement or green salt does not provoke the eyes of outsiders? Why has Laoshan been plotted against many times, to put it bluntly, isn't it all Qingyan who is in trouble? As a bandit, Cao Wei knows the truth that the husband is not guilty of his crimes.

His own ability is limited, and occupying Qingzhou has already aroused the covetousness of many people, if you add green salt and cement, it will not only make outsiders covetous, but it is very likely to cause death. Didn't Wang Mi and Shi Le want to attack him some time ago? Thanks to his prudence, he was able to escape.

So although many people encouraged him to attack Laoshan, Cao Wei always stood still, making it clear that he didn't want to be in the limelight. What Cao Wei hopes most is that you can fight to the death outside of Qingzhou, but no one should disturb his life in Qingzhou. In addition, Cao Wei was a foreigner and despised the Hu people very much in his heart, and he wanted to break away from the Huns as soon as possible and belong to the Jin family.

"I invite Lord Wei to come over to talk about it today, but there is a secret thing that you need to do."

At this time, what else can Wei Shuo do? He couldn't live up to the kindness that Lord Assassin had just released, so he had to immediately bow to the ground and simply said: "Please Lord Assassin Shi if you have something to say, you should do your best to help." ”

"Okay, this official knows that Lord Wei will not disappoint Cao, in fact, this matter is not a difficult thing for Lord Wei. Although Cao was born as a bandit, he was forced to join the Xiongnu Han Kingdom in desperation. But Cao has always cherished his homeland, otherwise he would not have left Wang Mi on the way to attack Luoyang and passed through Qingzhou alone. ”

"Over the years, Cao has been looking for an opportunity to return to the Jin family, but the imperial army has been defeated again and again in the face of the Hu people in the Central Plains, and the official does not dare to act rashly. As the saying goes, Hu has no luck for a hundred years, Cao doesn't want to restore the Chinese clothes in the future, but I, Cao, will leave a stench in history for 10,000 years. ”

Wei Shuo's heart moved when he heard this, and he couldn't help but say: "What does the adult mean ......"

Cao Wei leaned close to Wei Shuo and said in a low voice: "This official knows that Lord Wei has some connections with Jiangdong, so I want to ask Lord Wei to talk to King Langya for me." Let's just say that Cao Mou cherishes his homeland, and if the imperial court is to go north to the Central Plains in the future, I, Cao, am willing to lead the children of Qingzhou to help one or two. ”

No wonder Cao Wei became the owner of Qingzhou and had a hot fight with the local family after entering Qingzhou, it turned out that he had ulterior motives. In fact, it is not difficult to understand that although the Hu people have always had the upper hand over the years, most people do not believe that the Hu people will always have the upper hand, and the Han people will make a comeback sooner or later to recover the rivers and mountains.

A person with little ambition like Cao Wei naturally has to make early plans to avoid being liquidated by a counteroffensive in the future. Cao Wei thought that he was different from Wang Mi who broke Luoyang, and considering that he still occupied a state, King Langya would definitely treat it with caution.

"However, you must keep this matter strictly confidential and never disclose it to outsiders!"

"Xia Guan understands that he will not miss the good things of adults!"

With the mighty Shile as a neighbor, Cao Wei was not careful. In case the news is revealed and Shi Le is provoked, then Cao Wei will face a catastrophe. In fact, there was no need for Cao Wei's instructions, and Wei Shuo didn't dare to divulge the slightest. He was more worried about Shi Le than Cao Wei, and Wei Shuo had not had the strength to compete with Shi Le for at least five years.

Qingzhou is temporarily in charge of Cao Wei, which is more beneficial than disadvantageous for Wei Shuo. At least without the harassment of the Hu people, Wei Shuo can take advantage of the green salt and silently accumulate strength.

After solving the worries in his heart, Cao Wei seemed very happy next, not only had a drink with Wei Shuo, but also called the singer to come to help. The two of them drank until sunset. Not only was Cao Wei drunk and unconscious, but even Wei Shuo was also a little drunk. Later, he was arranged to rest in the guest room of the Thorn Mansion, and did not return to the inn until noon the next day.

Soon, the news that Cao Wei had a separate banquet for Wei Shuo in the Assassin's Mansion spread throughout Linzi City, and many people's covetousness for Wei Shuo was dispelled at once.
