Chapter 132 Mi Zhu Fu's Flowing Oil (Second Update)
After Zhang Shuang and Chen Jue reached an agreement, they took Dian Wei back to the Chen family's courtyard to rest. Meimei slept for a while, and the next day nothing happened to the bento, laughing with Chen Deng.
However, the careful Chen Deng still found some questions and couldn't help but ask a few questions.
"You seem to be hiding joy between your eyebrows, what happened?"
"You seem to be a lot more grumpy?"
Faced with all kinds of questions, Zhang Shuang smiled and prevaricated with various reasons.
Finally, Zhang Shuang lived in Chen Deng's courtyard for three days, on this day, Zhang Shuang was idle and bored, so he went out with Dian Wei and others for a walk, and when he came back, he was told that Chen Deng was waiting for him in the hall.
Zhang Shuang's heart moved, so he left his entourage and arrived at the hall with Dian Wei.
In the hall, Chen Deng was lying on the top of the pillow, holding Erlang's legs, and some dried fruits were placed next to him.
"But Mi Zhu has news?" Zhang Shuang didn't have time to ink with him, so he went straight to the point.
"The message is there, give, this is the letter." Chen Deng laughed, took out a roll of white silk, and threw it to Zhang Shuang.
"Epistle ???!" Zhang Shuang was puzzled and stretched out his hand to take it. After looking at it, Zhang Shuang frowned and said, "He actually said that he was talking about a big business recently and didn't have time to go out." While apologizing, he invited me to his home. ”
"The hussar general invited, but he didn't come??? What kind of big business is more important than seeing Ming Gong? Dian Wei was incredulous, very unhappy.
Why are all Xuzhou people so sloppy? Chen Deng is, is Mi Zhu too?
"That's what I want to ask." Zhang Shuang said secretly in his heart, and then turned his gaze to Chen Deng, which was regarded as asking.
"I have said a long time ago that Mi Zhu is an expert in business. But it's not necessarily very smart, you invite him just to be an official. His family is rich and noble, and he can be an enemy of the country. How could he abandon his family business and go to Luoyang with you to be an official? Since you don't want to be an official, then you have the weight of a hussar general. It's a big discount. It's also a matter of course. Chen Deng's face showed a look of ridicule, very frivolous.
Zhang Shuang didn't have a bird Chen Deng, and he thought about it in his heart.
Chen Deng told me this three days ago. But I didn't pay much attention to it. Because Mi Zhu is a person in history, but he followed Liu Bei, and he was willing to send his sister, the army, and gold, silver and jewelry.
It stands to reason. Politically ambitious.
But now according to Chen Deng.
There may be three situations, one is that Mi Zhu is still young now, and his political ambitions have not yet germinated. Simply put, it's a teenager who hasn't grown up.
The second is that Mi Zhu is a person who is attached to the land, Liu Bei was the first to be a pastor in Xuzhou, and he was willing to follow Liu Bei, but later he got on the thief ship and couldn't get off, so he kept following.
The third is that Liu Bei is more attractive than him.
The last point, Zhang Shuang thought about it and put it down. The key is the first two points. After pondering for a while, Zhang Shuang felt that the current Mi Zhu was the most likely to not germinate political ambitions.
The key is to let Mi Zhu understand that the official background is more important than money.
Thinking about it, Zhang Shuang feels a little troublesome, but it's not too difficult, after all, I even surrendered to Chen Deng. The open attack can't be successful, and there are many ways to secretly Chen Cang.
Thinking about it, Zhang Shuang glanced at Chen Deng quietly.
Chen Deng immediately felt it and scolded: "Zhang Boliang, why have you been looking at me from time to time these days??? What is hidden in your heart? ”
"Could it be that you Chen Yuanlong have done something wrong. Don't let people see it? Zhang Shuangpi smiled and said with a smile.
"Hmph."
Chen Deng snorted, and wisely chose not to fight back.
"To be serious, Yuanlong, you accompany me to Mi Zhu's house." After joking, Zhang Shuang restrained his expression. Said solemnly.
"Why?" Chen Deng squinted at Zhang Shuang with a mocking expression.
"Aren't you boring all this time? Just go out with me to relax, and Mi Zhu's family has a lot of wealth, so there must be a lot of eating, drinking, and having fun. ”
Zhang Shuang said quietly and seductively.
"That's just as well." Chen Deng nodded, feeling that it made sense.
So, Zhang Shuang abducted Chen Deng. With Dian Wei and other more than 100 horses, riding horses towards Qu County. Qu County is a small and inconspicuous county, but it is very famous.
Because there are big merchants of the Mi clan in Qu County.
The Mi family has been a businessman for generations, and his family has accumulated more than one trillion yuan. There is a saying in Qu County, "Ten percent of the fields in Qu County, and three percent of them belong to Mizhu." Ten percent of the shops in Qu County, fifty percent of them belong to Mizhu. The population of Qu County is 60,000, and seventy percent are Mizhu slaves. ”
A small sentence exhausts the wealth of Mizhu and the prominence of Mizhu in the local area.
And the Mi family generation is thin, and in this generation, that is, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang are just two brothers.
"Mi Zhu is young, and his family is so wealthy, he hugs before he goes out, eats delicacies from the mountains and seas, wears Shu brocade, and looks like a king of the soil, no wonder he is reluctant to go out to be an official."
Zhang Shuang, Dian Wei, Chen Deng and his entourage arrived in Qu County, and after listening to the local words of Qu County, they couldn't help but sigh.
This life, this nourishment, if I didn't know that troubled times were coming, I wouldn't want to be an official.
Zhang Shuang and his entourage had just arrived in Qu County, and it didn't take long for them to encounter a pavilion. Mi's Pavilion is written on the top of the pavilion, and there are wine and food under the pavilion, and more than ten people who look like domestic slaves are watching.
"What is this?" Zhang Shuang was puzzled and turned his head to look at Chen Deng. Chen Deng smiled and shrugged.
"But the hussar general is ahead?" At this moment, a man walked up and asked.
"So what?" Zhang Shuang asked.
"The general has worked hard all the way, and my master has set up wine and food here, please drink it." The man said.
"Food?" Zhang Shuang took a look, this is all in Qu County, isn't it almost to Mi Zhu's house?
"Don't look, this is the rule of Mi Zhu's hospitality, if not, how can he show that he is rich? Don't shirk it, the land you are standing on may also be the Mi family. ”
Chen Deng shrugged his shoulders, turned over and dismounted, like a hungry tiger, walked to the seat under the pavilion, opened his mouth and drank a sip of wine, shouting happily, "Good wine." ”
"This gentleman is right, this pavilion is within a radius of one mile, and it belongs to our Mi family." The Mi family slave showed a look of pride on his face.
"Okay." Zhang Shuang shrugged his shoulders, turned over and dismounted, and ate a lot. Then, under the opening of the Mizhu family slave, he went to the Mi family.
Located just outside the city, Mijia is a castle-like building. Sturdy, tall, stronger than ordinary castles, there is no problem in accommodating 10,000 people in terms of size.
The whole city is full of Mi Zhu's house slaves, maids, and domestic soldiers.
It can be imagined what kind of soil emperor Mi Zhu is.
"The hussar general came from afar, fortunately, fortunately." From afar, Zhang Shuang saw a big scene outside Wubao, with beautiful maids on one side and powerful domestic slaves on the other, lined up in an adult herringbone.
Among them, the rich man Mi Zhu smiled and bowed his hands.
To say that Mi Zhu is the rich man of the soil is also dejorative. He was more than seven feet old, his face was handsome, his complexion was a little whiter than that of ordinary women, and the clothes he wore were very gorgeous.
Under the backdrop of the house slaves and maids on both sides, it is very noble.
"Graceful bearing, Mi Zhu really deserves to eat with his face." Zhang Shuang said secretly in his heart, but he also turned over and dismounted, and walked up with a smile.
"I'm not related to my subordinates, so it's a bit abrupt to visit." Zhang Shuang arched his hand.
"The general's words are serious, as the so-called friends from all over the world, not to mention the presence of the hussar general, it is my honor, honor." Mi Zhu smiled, and made a gesture, very kind.
"Mi Zizhong, with the hussar general, you forgot about me?" The atmosphere between the two was good, and Chen Deng came out to make trouble, and his tone was very unhappy.
"Don't dare, don't dare. Even if you forget your brother, you don't dare to forget Chen Yuanlong. Mi Zhu knew that this thing was arrogant, and hurriedly smiled.
"Hmph."
Chen Deng snorted.
Immediately, Zhang Shuang introduced Dian Wei, and Mi Zhu also smiled, very sleek, and not rude. After greeting for a while, Mi Zhu invited Zhang Shuang and others into the house.
Entering the hall, drinking and feasting, singing and dancing are essential.
Zhang Shuang and the others had a full meal at the pavilion, and they were naturally not hungry at this time, besides, Zhang Shuang came for a purpose, not simply to eat, drink and have fun.
After taking a sip of wine, Zhang Shuang put down the wine glass and said to Mi Zhu: "Zizhong knows that I was able to go out of Luoyang this time because I found an excuse to move the ancestral grave, but I traveled thousands of miles to Xuzhou, but for something?" ”
"I don't know." Mi Zhu also put down the wine glass and said honestly.
"It's for you." Zhang Shuang said quietly.
This made Mi Zhu a little flattered, he received Chen Deng's letter, and he understood Zhang Shuang's deep meaning. However, he really couldn't get out of his body, so he didn't go.
It doesn't mean that he despises Zhang Shuang.
In other words, the official position of hussar general is indeed very heavy.
But even so, he couldn't think that Zhang Shuang came to Xuzhou to meet him. The hussar general came from far and wide to see me?
Mi Zhu can't even think about it, how can she not be flattered?
Of course, Mi Zhu also had some doubts. couldn't help but say, "Does the general value me too much?" Although some of my money is true, the rest is useless. ”
"Of course you have something I value." Zhang Shuang smiled, and then said sincerely: "For example, I know that your Mi family has a grain business, and it is very big. There is a shortage of food in my fiefdom, and the gap is 100,000 stones. ”
"100,000 stones?" Mi Zhu was also dumbfounded, is this raising an army of 100,000?
"However, what I value most is your talent. The Mi family has been a businessman for generations, but in Zizhong's generation, it is really rich. Your talent for business is rare in the world. And I have seven county towns with a population of hundreds of thousands. The family's property is tens of thousands of gold and hundreds of millions of copper coins. I need someone to take care of this money. ”
Zhang Shuang was very sincere, very sincere, and said his purpose more bluntly.
"This!!" Zhang Su's purpose made Mi Zhu very difficult. (To be continued.) )
