Chapter 622: The First Man to Eat Crabs
For Mi Zhu. Kou Feng was grateful.
At that time, the Gan family and the Mi family were close, and the Mi family asked his brother Mi Zhu to help him, and later Kou Feng left Xinye, and Mi Zhu helped prepare a large number of supplies.
When Kou Feng first set up Jiangxia, Mi Zhu's materials made Kou Feng have a lot of money on hand.
After Liu Bei's death, the Mi family was considered a widow. In fact, the best way is to leave Mi Zhu and remarry. But the Mi family himself refused, and he would rather live with the Gan family in the past. Mi Zhu didn't know what his idea was, so he didn't take Mi away, but stayed in Kou Feng's mansion.
Kou Feng knew that from that time onwards, their relationship was no longer a simple friendship. It's also about politics.
Mi Zhu married his sister to Liu Bei to unite the two families. At this moment, Mi Zhu intentionally or unintentionally left the Mi family in Kou Feng's mansion, and also wanted to follow the relationship between the Mi family and the Gan family and the relationship with Kou Feng more closely.
But. According to Mi Zhu's feelings for Mi's family, if Mi's wants to marry, it is estimated that Mi Zhu will also pick up his sister. Although Mi Zhu is also utilitarian. But the nature is very pure.
But at this time, it is he who wants to marry Mi.
Although this matter is not led by Kou Feng himself, but the Gan family is in charge, and the Mi family nods. But Kou Feng still felt that he couldn't live with Mi Zhu in his heart.
After Kou Feng left Mi Zhu behind, he hesitated for a moment and "shouted," Zizhong. ”
Mi Zhu was also stunned. He was in the habit of calling him uncle in private. Although the two basically have nothing to do with each other, this uncle is just showing affection.
If Kou Feng changed his words, he shouldn't have said anything. After all, now Kou Feng is the lord of Jing Chu. Honorable status.
It's just that he suddenly changed his words, and Mi Zhu was a little unaccustomed to it. Therefore, Mi Zhu paused for a moment before saluting: "Lord." ”
"Zizhong, do you know that Madame, she has lost a lot of weight recently?" After saying a word, Kou Feng naturally became a lot more natural. Asked.
"I don't know this." Mi Zhu was stunned at first, and then said with some shame. Recently, he has been busy mobilizing the rampant to supply the consumption of Kou Feng's northward journey.
For Mi's care, "almost nothing is pitiful."
"Zizhong can also know that his wife's body has been properly conditioned by Zhang Zhongjing, and she can marry and have children." Kou Feng didn't know when he saw Mi Zhu. I couldn't help but ask again.
"What? Please ask the lord to take his sister home to live. Mi Zhu first screamed. Then he immediately bowed down and said.
Just like Kou Feng's conjecture, Mi Zhu left Mi in Kou Feng's mansion to be with Gan in the past, which is indeed a certain utilitarian.
After all, Mi can't have children, even if he remarries, "it's no different from now." It is better to stay by Gan's side to get closer to the two families.
However, when Mi Zhu learned that Mi could have children, he was full of plans to find a good family to marry his sister.
"But her heart belongs to me." Kou Feng went around and around, and finally said this, and said to Mi Zhu with a wry smile.
"This." Kou Feng's words frightened Mi Zhu, this matter is really a bit unbelievable, Kou Feng and Mi have been together for three years, "If you have a heart, you don't do everything."
Liu Bei can defile Kou Feng and have an affair with the Gan family, even if the Mi family secretly has an affair with Kou Feng. It's not impossible. But the question is, nothing has happened in these years, why is there love now?
However, "Mi Zhu didn't have much objection to this matter. Since Kou Feng is pro. told him that Xiangbi was really Mi's favorite.
In addition, "Now that Kou Feng's status is marrying Mi Shi, he Mi Zhu will not lose face."
In the end, there is no need to mind the identity of the Mi family, Kou Shi killed Liu Bei. Moreover, if the Mi family belongs to Kou Feng, then the relationship between Mi Zhu and Kou Feng is important. It's a step further.
Therefore, Mi Zhu is happy to see it come to fruition.
In fact, Mi Zhu has this thought, "It's normal." The rest of the things that are not recorded in the history book will not be said. Historically. Cao Cao pacified Hanzhong and captured Ma Chao's wife and son Ma Qiu.
As a result, Cao Cao killed Ma Qiu and married Ma Chao's wife. The woman in troubled times is as cheap as a dog, and she is a strong man, and in addition, Kou Feng is also willing to marry.
It couldn't be better.
"I don't know how the lord decides?" Mi Zhu's heart moved. But it was still tentative.
"She has a special identity, if Zizhong is willing. On a good day, let's have a drink, and we can sort of get this done. Kou Feng said what he thought in his heart and said.
"Let the lord decide." Mi Zhu naturally had no opinion and nodded.
Since Mi Zhu agrees, this is the case.
A month later, the good day hand-picked by Gan. Kou Feng set up a banquet in the mansion and invited the Mizhu brothers to come to the door for a drink.
Didn't drink much, just slightly drunk.
Standing in the aisle, Kou Feng looked at the night and sighed a little in his heart. I didn't expect that there would be today.
Thinking about the beginning, who would have thought of Mi's.
Thinking of this, Kou Feng shook his head. Banished the idea out. Regardless of the beginning, since the Mi family wants him, then he should be more competent.
Thinking about it, Kou Feng walked towards the backyard.
Own yard, familiar with the road. Where the Mi clan lives, Kou Feng also knows. Soon, we came to the outside of the new house.
Although Kou Feng can't give Mi anything to the family. But a rather festively furnished room is more than enough.
Just like an ordinary woman's marriage, red cloth, red candle.
When Kou Feng came in, the maids who served blessed Kou Feng and turned around and walked out.
In the inner room, Mi sat quietly on the bed.
Dressed in wide red makeup, covering the delicate body, with a little powder on his face, his demeanor was slightly shy, and he looked forward to life.
Seeing Kou Feng walking in, Mi Shi lightly blessed the blessing and said in a coquettish voice: "General." ”
Kou Feng smiled and leaned in.
Then, naturally, the red candle was extinguished, and the belt was lightly untied.
Early the next morning, under the service of the maid, Kou Feng put on his clothes, turned his head, looked at Mi Shi who was still sleeping, and shook his head slightly, this woman's body is still a little weak, which makes people pity.
The reason why Kou Feng got up from the gentle countryside was because Jiang Wan sent someone to report that a northern merchant had gone south to ask for a book.
The Book of Chu is currently the artifact of Jing Chu's country, and Kou Feng used him to attract people's hearts and minds as a "multi-nosed and cold scholar." In Chuxue, Kou Feng also distributed Chu books for free.
Provide Chu bachelors to study.
Outside, Kou Feng plans to use it to collect money and converge the talents of the north to go south. Scrape those wealthy warriors fiercely.
At the beginning, on the palace hall, "Ma Tan played a beautiful advertisement in front of the prime minister and hundreds of officials of Liu Xie, the son of Han Dynasty". Kou Feng will have such a day.
This may be the first business realm to eat crabs, but Kou Feng also knows that he sells it too expensive, and this book is a gold medal, and the poor family can't afford to buy it at all. In addition, there are only some big scholars, and there are thousands of books to buy, and they have to spend thousands of gold.
Not to mention, the businessmen who turn around from it. There may simply be little ability to buy.
However, he was also the first businessman to go south, and Kou Feng still attached great importance to it and decided to receive it in person.
Soon, Kou Feng went out of the backyard and came to the front yard near the official office set up "specially for the long history" main book.
The current Zhendong General's Mansion is much more generous than the Yang Wu General's Mansion in Jiangxia in the past, so Jiang Wan's official office has also been upgraded.
Especially Jiang Wan, the long history, as the current general manager of Jing Chu.
He has a large separate yard in the front yard. Among them, the hall, the side hall "big room, all available." When Kou Feng came, Jiang Wan was in the side hall. Meet the businessman.
Jiang Wan, as the most important official under Kou Feng's account. Every time Kou Feng fought in the front, he sat in the rear, with enough soldiers and enough food.
The prestige on his body is increasing day by day, and ordinary people dare not raise their heads to look at him when they see it.
At the moment, the same is true of the businessman.
This businessman's surname is Deng Mingguang, "a big businessman in Yingchuan." At this moment, in front of Jiang Wan with a faint smile on his face. He was so cautious that he didn't even dare to take a breath.
Although the status of businessmen is "different from that of the Ming and Qing dynasties in later generations", the status of businessmen is low, but it is not high. Cover should be the common belief of the people of this era. Today, wealth is limited, and if the wealth of businessmen increases, the wealth of ordinary people decreases.
Therefore, the merchant is regarded as a cancer. Also, some unscrupulous businessmen. The reselling of contraband, such as weapons, sea salt, etc., also contributed to the hatred of merchants in this era.
Even the former Xiaowu Emperor Liu Che regarded merchants as ATMs, and even more because of the repeated crusades against the Xiongnu. And the treasury is empty, so they often kill the powerful and the merchants to expand the treasury.
Deng Guang has the consciousness of being a businessman, and maintains an extremely respectful heart in front of officials, especially officials of Jiang Wan's weight.
However, he was also quite excited.
When he was in the north, Deng Guang overheard that Ma Xuan was offering a book in the main hall, and after some scholars' polishing, Kou Feng's Chu book became gold and jade.
It is as soft as clothes, and it is not heavy to hold. Silky like satin. Under the stroke, it is like mutton fat and beautiful jade. The most important thing is that the handwriting is clear and improves legibility.
It is true that Deng Guang is a big businessman, but it is not easy to be a big businessman in this era. Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion. Many scholars in the world have been affected.
But more Dashi clans also began to emerge, such as the Cao clan. Sima, Xun, Chen. The Zhong family and other famous families in the north.
They trained their domestic slaves as merchants and began to collect money.
An ordinary big businessman like Deng Guang. It's a tough day. From time to time, there may be a conflict of interest with other clans, and the family may be ruined.
Deng Guang felt that it was very dangerous, so he began to peck at it and think of a way to open up another trade route.
As a result, Kou Feng's book became the preferred target.
The first is that Kou Feng's book is an exclusive production, and there is no biography. What business is the most profitable? That's a monopoly. If he could open up this way of wealth, he would be able to make a huge profit as a businessman.
As a big businessman with courage. Deng Guang scattered his property and got thousands of dollars to go south "to buy these books."
"I don't know Lord Changshi, if you buy a book from the general, how much will it cost?" ,。 At this time, Deng Guang and Jiang Wan had been discussing for a long time, and Deng Guang decided to go deep into the topic and bring this Chu book back to the north.
"Mr. also knows that this Chu book is an artifact of the country. It's certainly a lot of money...... Jiang Wan said with a smile on his face.
That appearance made Deng Guang's heart sink a little, this is the face of sitting on the ground. And it is also an exclusive production, and there is no counter-offer in situ.
"I also said it clearly...... But as the saying goes. You have a good plan, and I have a wall. Deng Guang thought that even if the cost was too high, he could sell it for a higher price.
You won't lose anything. I couldn't help but grit my teeth and asked.
, "Lord Father...... At this time, it was Kou Feng who walked in. Jiang Wan put down talking to Deng Guang, but got up and bowed to Kou Feng and said.
"Lord? Kou Feng? ,。 Deng Guang's heart was pounding, and when he came to Xiangyang, he was actually ready to hit a wall.
After coming to Xiangyang. Deng Guang actually secretly visited it. Knowing that Kou Feng controlled Chu Shu very strictly, he only gave it to some officials, scholars, and students.
And it must not be revealed. Once anyone is caught leaking the book, it is a crime of raiding the house. As a result, very few people have leaked books.
was so stern that Deng Guang was weak. But he still came hard, and he didn't want to enter General Yang Wu. There was a surprise. Jiang Wan, the chief historian of General Zhendong, actually met him in person.
Unexpectedly, what was even more surprising and frightening was that Kou Feng actually came forward.
Kou Feng's prestige, who doesn't know now. Jiangling broke the city in one night in one battle, and broke Zhou Yu in one day. The first battle of Xiangyang broke the ban. went north to the capital of Chen Bing's Son of Heaven, and it reached its peak.
There are many scholars in the north who are already secretly optimistic about this lord of Jingchu, and look forward to him going north to eliminate the Cao clan.
Such a character actually came to see him in person. For a while, Deng Guang's brain was buzzing, and the businessman's calm head, which he had always maintained, almost collapsed at this moment.
But the adaptability that has been exercised all year round helped Deng Guang at this moment. I saw him stand up suddenly, facing the person behind him who had not yet seen clearly. Bow down and say, "Yingchuan Deng Guang." Meet the Marquis of Chu. ”。
If it had been placed in the past, outsiders would have called Kou Feng a general. Now that the imperial court edict has sealed Kou as the Marquis of Chu, this title has naturally changed.
, "Mr. Deng is exempt...... Kou Feng smiled and stretched out his hand to help Deng Guang.
This made Deng Guang flattered and timid. Lord Jing Chuxiong gently helped him, a small businessman, which was an incomparable honor.
Even more timid.
, "Thank you Chuhou...... Until Kou Feng withdrew his hands. And when Jiang Wan sat down in the position where Jiang Wan was sitting just now, Deng Guangcai barely recovered, and said deeply to Kou Feng.
"Hehe, sir sit." ”。 Seeing that Deng Guang was a little frightened, Kou Feng was also surprised. In this day and age, the life of a merchant is not easy. They have more knowledge and more money than ordinary people.
But it is precisely because of this that they are more desperate for their lives and more able to appreciate the power of the powerful. A world-class businessman like Mi Zhu also had to befriend Liu Bei and change his court. Suddenly. Nose officer.
Not to mention an ordinary big businessman like Deng Guang.
