Xuzhou is bordered by the sea in the east, Yuzhou in the west, Yangzhou in the south, and Qingzhou in the north. It has a large population and is very prosperous. However, Xuzhou is a typical Central Plains terrain, a flat river, basically no danger to defend.

Therefore, especially affected by the impact of the yellow scarf, the population has decreased by 30% all of a sudden.

Historically, the princes who divided Xuzhou, such as Tao Qian, Liu Bei, and Lu Bu, could not hold Xuzhou, which was a major reason.

After traveling to this era, Zhang Shuang came to Xuzhou several times, and in this limited time, Zhang Shuang met Xuzhou Chen Deng. This guy is half of Zhang Shuang's friend.

The reason why they are half friends is because this person is twisted and arrogant.

However, in addition to being arrogant, this man does have a few brushes. In the history of the Three Kingdoms, few people know that the Sun brothers attacked Guangling several times.

As a result, he was defeated by Chen Deng, who was the county guard of Guangling.

According to historical records, Chen Deng was transferred to Dongcheng Taishou, and Sun Quan crossed the river. Sun Ce annexed Jiangdong and fought thousands of miles, almost invincible in the world, but he was still deflated at Chen Deng's hands.

Chen Deng's power can be imagined.

Zhang Shuang coveted Chen Deng, and if he got it, he would either be placed in the position of a state pastor, or he would become a general in the court to help him control the government, and it would definitely be useful for one to top ten.

It's a pity that Chen Deng's personality is really arrogant, and Zhang Shuang can't eat it through, so he really doesn't dare to pack a ticket to turn him back to Luoyang.

Therefore, this time Zhang Shuang's main target is Mi Zhu.

Zhang Shuang didn't know Mi Zhu, so he had to get closer to Mi Zhu through Chen Deng's introduction.

Needless to say, Mi Zhu is more famous than Chen Deng. He is famous for three things, one is that he has countless family fortunes, and he is rich enough to send Liu Bei's army. In such a situation, Mi Zhu's financial management ability is absolutely top.

The second is that Mi Zhu has a beautiful sister and gave Liu Bei as his wife. Zhang Shuang didn't care about this, because it was estimated that Mi Zhu's sister was only seven or eight years old now. As big as Wu Amaranth, it's just a little girl.

The third is that Mi Zhu is very beautiful, which is very suitable for being a guest of the monarch and filling the façade.

These three points. Zhang Shuang's favorite thing is naturally the first point. First of all, there is a shortage of grain in Hedong, and there is grain in Mizhu. The second is that Hedong needs to develop, and Mizhu has the ability.

Abducted Mi Zhu home, and he definitely earned it.

If Chen Deng can be turned back together, it will naturally make a lot of money.

Gallop all the way. A month later, Zhang Shuang finally arrived in Huaipu, Xuzhou, Chen Deng's hometown. The price is that Zhang Shuang feels that his ass is almost unconscious.

It's all worth it, though.

After Zhang Shuang arrived in Huaipu, he did not enter the city. Instead, I walked along the avenue, then the path, and walked fifteen miles before I arrived at a place surrounded by mountains and rivers.

Chen Deng is arrogant. It's chic, it's wanton. Therefore, he has a mansion compound in the city, but the place where he lives is the Chen family's courtyard outside the city.

At this moment, the door of the Chen family's courtyard was open, and there was a person who looked like a small servant cleaning near the door, heard the sound of horses' hooves, looked up and saw that it was Zhang Shuang, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Mr. Zhang." ”

This is the concierge. Chen went and was somewhat familiar with Zhang Shuang.

"Long time no see." Zhang Shuang smiled and turned over and dismounted.

"What wind brought the gentleman here?" Chen Qu hurriedly stepped forward to serve, took the reins of the horse, and raised his head to ask.

"Of course, I'm here to see your eldest son. Where is he? Can it be in the hospital? Zhang Shuang asked.

"Childe went hunting. But. The time should be back soon. Chen looked at the sky, thought about it, and replied.

"Then prepare the tea, I'm a little thirsty. Prepare the horses, get some drinks by the way, and give me these retinues. Zhang Shuang pointed to the accompanying cavalry road.

"Okay. Good. Chen nodded again and again, and called Zhang Shuang's personal soldiers and entourage to come in together.

At that moment, the sound of horses' hooves sounded. Zhang Shuang's heart moved, and he looked up to the east. I saw a few people from the east coming across the horse, and the first one was very dignified and had an outstanding temperament.

"Chen Yuanlong." Zhang Shuang smiled and arched his hand.

"Zhang Boliang." When Chen Deng saw Zhang Shuang, he was a little not very enthusiastic, turned over and dismounted, and said indifferently.

Zhang Shuang knew Chen Deng's character, so he didn't mind. smiled and said, "Don't you invite me in to sit?" ”

"No matter how much I, Chen Deng, am a bastard, I won't lose my courtesy." Chen Deng was noncommittal. Then he said tea to his entourage, and then led Zhang Shuang, Dian Wei entered the courtyard and arrived at the study.

After entering the study, Chen Deng's eyes signaled Zhang Shuang to be casual, and then he fell on the main seat, his right hand resting on his head, and asked lazily: "Chen Boliang, I heard that you are a hussar general, and you are not in Luoyang to do power, what are you doing in my Xuzhou?" ”

Zhang Shuang touched his nose and said, "It's okay to come and see your friends?" ”

"Hmph, I don't dare to be your friend." Chen Deng snorted, very disdainful.

"Yuanlong, it's been so many years. Tell me, what has I done to you? Zhang Shuang smiled bitterly, this matter is incomprehensible, and today is the reason.

"You didn't offend me, I just didn't see you as happy." Chen Deng said very bluntly.

"Uh." Zhang Shuang was stunned and asked, "Why don't you look at me very well?" ”

"I saw five years ago that you are a refreshing person on the outside, but you have the power to be skillful on the inside. A gentleman on the outside, but a traitor on the inside. Chen Deng rolled his eyes and said.

Zhang Shuang wanted to refute, but Chen Deng's words made him unable to refute. I can only pinch my nose and admit it.

Chen Deng looked at Zhang Shuang's expression and knew that this guy had done a lot of traitorous things during this time. I wanted to be sarcastic, but in the end, I sighed slightly: "However, this world is an honest person who suffers, and people like you can live a chic and nourishing life, otherwise you can't be such a high position as a hussar general." ”

"Are you praising me or am you hurting me?" Zhang Shuang is also a little uncomfortable.

"It's a compliment." Chen Deng was confused for a moment, and then said a little melancholy.

"This guy is not only arrogant, but also eccentric. Talking to him, it's almost dizzy. Zhang Shuang shook his head and decided not to pay attention to him anymore, Dao Ming said: "I want to see Mi Zhu, you can help pull a line." ”

"Although Mi Zhu is a businessman, he is absolutely honest, what are you looking for him?" Chen Deng immediately said vigilantly.

"Can I still eat him?" This expression of guarding against the white-eyed wolf made Zhang Shuang hateful. Then he said: "My Hou country, there is a shortage of food, I just plan to buy food from him, and if I can, I also want to recruit him to take care of my Hou country." ”

"Your kingdom is in Hedong, which is one of the richest places in the world. There should be no shortage of food, what are you doing there? Chen Deng said suspiciously.

"I didn't do anything, I just stuffed 100,000 people." Zhang Shuang shrugged. It's a little awkward to talk to Chen Deng, but there is an advantage, that is, you don't need to think too much, and the atmosphere is a lot lively.

"100,000 people?" Chen Deng sat up suddenly, his eyes flashed, and asked, "I also heard that you are also a sonic captain?" ”

"That's right." Zhang Shuang nodded.

"Of the 100,000 people in Hedong, half of your 100,000 people are estimated to have been obtained by exterminating the Yellow Turban. Hedong went to Luoyang, but it was only a few days. You are leading the troops in Luoyang again, Zhang Boliang, what do you want to do? Chen Deng narrowed his eyes, and there was a rare look of seriousness in his eyes.

Zhang Shuang's heart moved, this kid didn't look at me very well. But what I just said is a bit mysterious.

Praise me for my cheerful appearance and inner power. An outer gentleman, an inner traitor. That's a good point. From my little layout, I can guess what I want to do, top smart.

Moreover, he has had the heart to support the world since the beginning.

Now the court is dim, and the people are struggling to make a living.

If I show a little ambition, I want to return the meaning of the world. Maybe you can recruit him? Zhang Shuang lacks talents, especially those who control the situation.

At this moment, his heart was pounding, and he immediately said: "Yuanlong, you are not in Luoyang, I don't know how chaotic the court is." Maybe if you are not careful, the court will collapse. Although I am a hussar general, I am not particularly heavy in the court, and if I am accidentally crushed, I have to leave a way back. Hedong has a population of hundreds of thousands, and can raise tens of thousands of soldiers. In case something happens to the court, the world will be in chaos. I'm enough to protect myself. ”

After finishing speaking, Zhang Shuang said tentatively: "I still have a shortage of people under my hands, how can you help me, Yuanlong?" ”

"What can protect yourself???? According to your thief nature, you must be able to swallow Luoyang when you enter, and you can protect Hedong and encroach on the state. ”

Chen Deng snorted, dismissive.

"Huh!" Zhang Shuang touched his nose and almost choked.

"Humph!" Seeing this, Chen Deng knew that he had guessed correctly, so he snorted. Then he lay down again, crossed Erlang's legs, and said leisurely: "Although I am not interested in being your subordinate, I can help you contact Mi Zhu over there." ”

"However, according to Mi Zhu's current family, the foundation is in Xuzhou. It's unlikely that he will follow you to Luoyang. Chen Deng said again.

"That's not necessarily, the world is going to be chaotic. Even if the family is big, if you can't keep it, it's just a ruin. The wise men are scattered all their possessions, or seek officials, or raise soldiers. Zhang Shuang smiled and didn't care.

"Mi Zhu is very good at business, but at this point, he is not necessarily very smart." Chen Deng said disdainfully.

"I'll talk about it later." Zhang Shuang said with a smile.

"Okay." Chen Deng shrugged. Then let the people take the pen and ink, began to wave, and soon completed a letter in a dashing manner, and asked people to send it to Mi Zhu quickly.

"My face, Mi Zhu is to give. But his home is two hundred miles away, and it will take at least three days for him to come. Would you like to stay with me? Chen Deng asked.

"If you're not welcome, I can borrow it in the city." Zhang Shuang smiled.

"How many times do you want me to say it, although I don't like you. But I'm not going to be rude. Chen Deng snorted and reiterated again, and then said to his entourage: "Go, prepare the guest room, and invite our hussar general to stay." ”

"Catch your weakness, I will live with you for ten years for nothing, and you can't help it." Zhang Shuang smiled. (To be continued.) )
