After living here with Hu Zhao for a few days, Hu Zhao and Liu Xie, the old and the young, talked very happily.

Liu Xie admired the old master's profound knowledge, and Hu Zhao saw that His Majesty did not have the rumored dark appearance at all, but was extremely far-sighted, and he was quite happy in his heart, at least he didn't have to serve a faint king!

If it weren't for Liu Xie's embarrassment to disturb the happy married life of other people's associations, he would definitely learn from Liu Ranpao (Liu Bei) and sleep with this old master and eat at the same table!

Hu Zhao, whose name is Kongming, has a wife and a daughter in the family, and the daughter's name is Hu Jia, who is only about ten years old, smart and well-behaved, but his surname is more introverted.

The Hu family is also a prestigious clan in this Yangzhai County, although it cannot be compared with the Yuan family, the Xun family, and the Chen family, but it can be regarded as a sitting tiger, compared to Guo Jia's Guo family, it is much better, after all, the Guo family has declined since Guo Jia's father, and it can be said that he is a real son of a poor family!

It's just that compared with other clansmen in the Hu clan, Hu Zhao is obviously a more maverick non-mainstream figure, he doesn't want to be an official, he just wants to educate the people, and he can be said to regard fame and fortune as a model of dung! It is also an example of the ancient teacher!

If he hadn't talked to Hu Zhao about his disciples, Liu Xie would have almost forgotten about Guo Jia.

Yes, he also secretly blamed himself in his heart, he only remembered the old one, and almost forgot the little one, what a sin! So, after learning the news from Hu Zhao that Guo Jia was going to Chen to visit friends, Liu Xie immediately bid farewell to Hu Zhao and asked Hu Zhao to take his family to Sichuan and Shu to wait for his arrival.

Regarding Liu Xie's arrangement, Hu Zhao actually disagreed. Because Hu Zhao felt that Liu Xie, as an emperor, should not take risks so lightly, as for recruiting talents, as long as he sent his subordinates to do it, why risk the danger of war and go there in person? Although he was deeply moved by Liu Xie's personal invitation to talents, compared with this touch, he still preferred that Liu Xie would not take risks lightly!

But Liu Xie didn't listen to Hu Zhao this time, because he didn't know when Guo Jia would vote for Boss Cao, but he thought it should be during this period. And Chen Liu is Boss Cao's territory! Guo Jia went to Chen Liu, isn't it a sign of going to Cao? Yes, Liu Xie couldn't wait!

After persuading and persuading, he finally persuaded the chattering old master Hu, and Liu Xie finally breathed a sigh of relief.

So Liu Xieci said that he carried the old master's handwritten letter, set off from Yangzhai, and went to Chenliu.

………………

And in those days when Liu Xie stayed at Hu Zhao, Li Dao and Guo Yan, two bandits, led the troops to storm the chrysanthemums of Yang Feng and others who fled to Anyi. It's a pity that Yang Feng had few soldiers and was helplessly defeated. Yang Feng used to be the king of the mountain, but now he was violent, and in a fit of anger, he naturally greeted the brothers in the rivers and lakes he once had, so Li Le, Hu Cai, Han Xian and others, the king of Baibo, ran to support him, and also pulled the Southern Huns onto the thief ship.

As a result, Li Dao and Guo Yan were defeated by Yang Feng and Hu Cai and others without investigation. So the two thought about it, and made peace with Yang Feng and others, but when they were drinking and making peace, Li Guo and the others turned their faces on the spot, killed Hu Cai and the leader of the Hun army, Zuo Xianwang, and defeated Yang Feng's army again.

And what made Li Guo and the others depressed was that they went back and forth, only to find out that Yang Feng and the others really didn't lie to them, and the Han Emperor was really not in the army!

In this way, Li Guo and the two thieves poured this anger on those unarmed civil servants and the civilians who came with them.

In this battle, there were many Shizuo and ministers killed by Li Guo's two thieves, and even Shaofu Tianfen, Dasi Nong Zhang Yi and others were killed.

I have to say that the luck of Yang Feng's group is really too bad, compared to Zhong Xuan's group, it is much worse.

This battle can only be described by the word 'miserable'!

History, under the flapping of the wings of Liu Xie's demon moth, has gradually begun to deviate from the original track.

At least, historically, he didn't die at this time!

………………

When Liu Xie took Xu Huang and others to Chenliu, it was already three or two days later.

As a result, what made Liu Xie quite depressed was that after a day of inquiry, he got the news that Guo Jia had left Chenliu and was missing.

It is said that Guo Jia likes to run here and there when he has nothing to do, just like those travelers who like to travel together when they have nothing to do. The only difference may be that this Guo Jia pays more attention to observing the customs and customs of various places, as well as the mountains and rivers of various places.

It's a pity...... Liu Xie couldn't help but sigh secretly: Can't such a talent really be used by me? It's a pity!

Liu Xie estimated that Guo Jia disappeared, perhaps because he went to Dongjun to vote for Cao Boss! Although he also wanted to go to Dongjun to have a look, he was afraid that he would never come back. Moreover, this is still his own speculation, if not? Wouldn't that be even more of a loss?

After thinking about it, Liu Xie couldn't help but shake his head!

"Gongming, you go and let people sell all our goods and exchange them with some local specialties, and we will set off into Sichuan!"

"Okay, Childe!"

As a result, in the evening, I saw Xu Huang leading his subordinates to tie up a man in civilian clothes and throw it in front of Liu Xie. "Childe, this person was sneaking around outside our inn and was taken down by our people, according to him, he passed by here unintentionally...... Please let the son decide, can I wait to torture him! ”

Hearing Xu Huang say this, Liu Xie exhaled lightly, glanced at the man, and said, "Use the torture!" ”

When the man heard Liu Xie's indifferent words, he couldn't help but shout, "Childe spare your life, Childe spare your life...... The villain is not a villain, but a subordinate of the Wuji Chamber of Commerce, just sent by our head of the family to inquire about a little news about the purchase of the childe, and he is not a villain! Childe, please! ”

"Wuji Chamber of Commerce?" Liu Xie's brows furrowed, looked at Xu Huang, and said, "Does the public know about this chamber of commerce?" ”

Xu Huang grinned and shook his head.

Liu Xie coughed and said, "It seems that it's just a nameless small chamber of commerce, pull it out and continue to torture it, see if he dares to tell lies!" ”

The man was speechless, and immediately shouted: "Childe misunderstood, Childe misunderstood, our Wuji Chamber of Commerce, in Jizhou, Bingzhou, Yanzhou, Liangzhou and other places are all well-known chambers of commerce, if Childe doesn't believe it, you can go out and inquire!" As he spoke, he glanced at Liu Xie and the others suspiciously, as if to say: I haven't even heard of the Wuji Chamber of Commerce, and I dare to come out to run business, aren't you really afraid of being laughed at?

"Childe, do you want to send someone to inquire?" Xu Huang asked.

Liu Xie chuckled and said, "You don't need to ask, you just need to send a letter to the Wuji Chamber of Commerce, and you can know if what this person said is true or false!" ”

Not long after, Xu Hu, who was sent out by Xu Huang, came back, and with him, there was a thin young man in his twenties, with a short beard on his lips, dressed as a scribe, and with a long figure. After seeing the man on the ground, the young man breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to Liu Xie and said: "The next surname is Zhen, the name is Yan, it is the Zhongshan Wuji clan, and he is also the person in charge of the Wuji Chamber of Commerce. ”

Today's Liu Xie, although he is only fifteen years old, is much taller and burlier than he was originally because of the Dragon Soul Pill and Dragon Qi, and at this time, he even looks even more majestic than that Zhen Yan.

It's just that at this time, Liu Xie pondered in his heart, who is this Zhen Yan? I don't think I've heard of it! I don't know if you've ever been on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms?

"Well said! In Xia Liu Ji, go out to do some small business, but you are afraid of being patronized by bad people, this is not ......" Liu Xie said, pointing to the man on the ground.

"Brother Liu misunderstood!" Zhen Yan smiled bitterly: "This person is a subordinate of the Lower Chamber of Commerce, and he is usually sent out to inquire about some news, such as which chambers of commerce buy which goods, which chambers of commerce sell which goods, how much to buy, how much to sell, these are all things that need to be calculated." Moreover, most of the goods brought by Brother Liu have also been eaten by my Wuji Chamber of Commerce, perhaps, this is fate! As he spoke, he nodded at Xu Hu.

Xu Hu looked at Liu Xie embarrassedly, then nodded and said, "Hui Gongzi, this ...... Most of the goods we shipped before were indeed taken away by this person, but the little one was in a hurry before, and I didn't know that he was the principal of the Wuji Merchant......"

Liu Ji frowned, the corners of his lips raised slightly, and said to Xu Hu: "Ah Hu! See? Brother Zhen's business is worth learning from with an open mind! Liu Xie's words made Xu Hu nod his head, and at the end, he looked at the man on the ground again: "Fortunately, this person is not a bad person, otherwise it ......."

Liu Xie's words didn't continue, but Xu Huang and the others were shocked into a cold sweat! You know, how many of them are there, and if they are targeted and secretly calculated, what will be the result? It doesn't matter if they die, but the young master in front of him is a saint today!

"Childe taught me, I'll remember it!"

Liu Xie laughed, waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, since it's a misunderstanding, then it's unraveled." Come on, untie him, and serve tea in the room! Brother Zhen, please inside! ”

The reason why Liu Xie was so polite to Zhen Yan was actually because he remembered Jia Xu's words of 'mixing into the Chamber of Commerce'. Since you want to blend in with the Chamber of Commerce, isn't it good to have this Wuji Chamber of Commerce in front of you? I just don't know, what is the destination of this Wuji Chamber of Commerce?

Zhen Yan bowed and said, "Thank you, Brother Liu!" Since Brother Liu invites him, then it will be disturbed! As he spoke, he said to the subordinate who had just been untied: "You go back and talk to someone first, and say that I will talk to Brother Liu here for a while......

Liu Xie and Xu Huang welcomed Zhen Yan to the inner room and sat down, while Xu Huang was still standing behind Liu Xie and acted as a guard, making Zhen Yan quite uncomfortable.

After the next person brought the tea, Liu Xie invited Zhen Yan to eat tea, and asked, "Forgive me for speaking bluntly, I don't know where Brother Zhen is here?" ”
