Since Jiang Zhe rectified the business of Xuchang, and secretly calculated those families, he was very proud.

It's just that he also has a little regret in his heart......

"Xian Zhang......" Jiang Zhe looked at Li Ru next to him listlessly and said, "You said that if it's okay, I'll sit here too?" ”

“…… Be! Li Ru didn't know how many times he had answered Jiang Zhe's question, "There are still three hours before you return home, sir!" Three hours, Li Ru almost gritted his teeth and said.

"Ah......" Jiang Zhe sighed weakly, and suddenly turned his head to Li Ru and said, "Xianzhang, why don't we play chess!" ”

"Playing chess?" Li Ru looked Jiang Zhe up and down, and Nuo Nuo said, "Mr. knows how to play chess?" You might as well have a discussion with me. ”

"Is backgammon okay?" Jiang Zhe said weakly.

"Backgammon?" Li Ru frowned.

So Jiang Zhe told Li Ru how to play backgammon, and Li Ru suddenly glared and said, "This is ...... What kind of way is this? How could there be such a way? It's an insult to the sages! ”

"That's fine!" Jiang Zhe stood up abruptly and said, "Then I'll go back!" ”

"Wait...... Wait a minute! Li Ru was stunned for a moment, and immediately called out to Jiang Zhe, and said with a hesitant expression, "That's ...... Oh well......"

"Come on, come on!" Jiang Zhe smiled, and took out a pair of black and white chess from the table, which he had seen a long time ago, but he didn't know how to play Go, so he had to stare at this only pastime, and now he suddenly remembered, I can still play backgammon if I don't know Go, so there is the above scene.

Li Ru is very intelligent, and after a little thought, he understood the essence of backgammon, and after being rectified by Jiang Zhe at the beginning, the two began to fight without distinguishing between positive and negative.

Playing and playing, Li Ru suddenly had a feeling, this seems to be a very simple way to play, it seems to hide unusual knowledge, which seems to have some similarities with Go, the more chess pieces in the chessboard, the more you have to care about the follow-up path, often inadvertently, by this foolish Mr. Exploited loopholes.

"Hey, five, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Jiang Zhe smiled and glanced at Li Ru.

Li Ru's face turned red, and he said in a deep voice, "Come again!" ”

"Why don't we add some more color?" Jiang Zhe tempted Li Ru.

"I'm penniless, and I'm still eating under my husband, you can do it!" Li Ru said to Jiang Zhe in a Jiang-style tone.

Jiang Zhe was speechless for a moment, and suddenly remembered that this guy was still eating white food under his own hands! I was depressed in my heart, but when I thought of something, Jiang Zhe said strangely, "Xianzhang, I think your knowledge is also rare in the world, why didn't you agree when Meng De wanted to use you in the morning, you had to be a sword and pen history under Zhe, even if Zhe saved your life before, you don't have to repay it like this, right?" Now that you are engaged in it, why don't you take it when you have a monthly salary? ”

Li Ru silently took Baizi out of the chessboard, and thought in his heart, Cao Mengde was also one of the Kwantung armies besieging his father-in-law earlier, how can I help him, and you ......

Suddenly, Li Ru remembered that Jiang Zhe seemed to be one of the culprits who caused the death of his father-in-law Dong Zhuo, and suddenly felt a little confused in his heart, yes, why should I follow him?

Li Ru raised his head and looked at Jiang Zhe carefully.

"So be it! We'll bet on the night's wine! If you lose, you'll have to buy the wine for the night! Jiang Zhe looked at Li Ru slyly with a wicked smile on his face.

I see...... Li Ru shook his head, smiled slightly, and said, "Sir, don't be complacent!" I know the trick, and I'm not going to lose again! ”

"Whoa! What a big breath! Jiang Zhe pursed his lips and said to Li Ru, "Come!" You first! ”

"It's better to be respectful than to obey!" Li Ru smiled lightly and put a son, maybe it was his kind of surname that does not seek fame or profit, treats everything indifferently, has respect for anyone, etc., attracts himself, although Luoyang's son is extremely luxurious, but he is not happy, he must always guard against this, guard against that, full of deceit, and now he is very good...... It's so good......

"You've lost, sir!" Li Ru looked at Jiang Zhe with a smile.

"This ......" Jiang Zhe stared at the chessboard and coughed, "It seems that I underestimated you...... Again! ”

"I'll be my companion!"

lost three times in a row, and immediately lost Jiang Zhe's eyes, looking at Li Ru and thinking in his heart, are the ancients all that man and cow? How much work did it take to defeat me, a high-level backgammon?

"Are you still coming?" Li Ru felt that he liked Jiang Zhe's expression more and more, this person was really a rare wonderful person in the world!

"Come on! I don't believe it! Jiang Zhe snorted.

Suddenly, a subordinate came in and said, "Lord Qiqijiang, Gong Qiao is outside, and I want to see my lord!" ”

"Say I'm not there!" Jiang Zhe said with red eyes.

Li Ru glanced outside the door and smiled slightly in his heart, Qiao Gong is afraid that he is here for those family affairs last time, interesting!

The man paused for a moment, and then went down.

But after a while, the next person came back again, and said to Jiang Zhe with a bitter face, "My lord, the little one said that Master Jiang was not there, but Qiao Gong didn't believe it, so he had to come in!" ”

"What? Unbelief? Jiang Zhezheng and Li Ru were inseparable, and when he heard the words, he said, "That's okay!" When I win, I'll tell the old man myself! ”

"......" Li Ru was dumbfounded, his hand shook, and the chess pieces in his hand fell on the chessboard.

"Aha!" Jiang Zhe laughed loudly, "You lost!" As soon as I looked up, I suddenly saw a person standing outside the door, and when I looked closely, I immediately cried out in my heart.

"The old man seems to have heard Lord Jiang say that he is not there?" Qiao Xuan walked in with a strange expression, "Do you want to tell the old man in person?" ”

The man quickly ran away.

"Ahem, where did Qiao Gong say......" Jiang Zhe messed up the chessboard with his hand, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I mean to go out and tell Qiao Gong in person, I'm ......"

Qiao Xuan stared at Jiang Zhe's face, seeing that Jiang Zhe didn't have an embarrassed expression at all, he was slightly stunned, this bastard boy is quite thick-skinned!

"Shouyi...... Qiao Xuan walked to the side of the seat and sat down, and said to Jiang Zhe with a smile, "Do you know why the old man is here today?" ”

"I don't know!" Jiang Zhe shook his head.

"Don't know?" Qiao Xuan's face changed suddenly, and he shouted to Jiang Zhe with his cane, "Old man, I see that you are very clear in your heart!" Otherwise, why don't you dare to see the old man? ”

Li Ru was happy in his heart, and said secretly, is it not the right time for you to get old......

Jiang Zhe glanced at the chessboard, nodded and said, "That'...... That knows? ”

"Know ......" Qiao Xuan was speechless, glared at Jiang Zhe, got up and walked to Jiang Zhe's side, and Li Ru got up and gave up his seat.

"Old man, come and ask you! Why calculate the family in Xuchang City! ”

"No......" Jiang Zhe looked puzzled, and said to Qiao Xuan, "Gong Qiao, you also saw it, they came to buy the land in the west of the city, didn't they?" Didn't Zhe pull them to buy it? Then I thought, at that time, the price of land in the west of the city rose sharply, so I said to them, let them exchange the shops in the east of the city for the land in the west of the city, right? ”

"Hmm...... That's true, but ......"

Jiang Zhe interrupted Qiao Xuan's words and said with a straight face, "When I said, how many big stores they have in the east of the city, I will give them as much land as they have in the west of the city, and I haven't treated them badly at all, you always misunderstand me!" ”

This kid! Qiao Xuan paused in anger and said in a deep voice, "Didn't you issue those decrees to calculate those families?" If you dare to say that there is no old man to pump you! ”

Ouch! This old man has a big temper! Jiang Zhe flashed, coughed and said, "Yes, yes, yes!" But ......" glanced at Qiao Xuan, Jiang Zhe said in a low voice, "Zhe is just for Xuchang, and he is selfless, why did Qiao Gong come to question me?" ”

"Uh......" Qiao Xuanleng paused, and said in his heart, yes, this kid didn't get some benefits from those businessmen, and it was a gaffe to ask him this time...... Wrong!

"Shouyi!" Qiao Xuan called Jiang Zhe, suddenly glanced at Li Ru next to him, and looked at Jiang Zhe with a frown.

Li Ru smiled slightly and said, "Please retire first!" ”

Qiao Xuan's head bowed, who knew that Jiang Zhe said, "It's okay to show off and stay here!" Qiao Gong, Xian Zhang is a philosophical confidant, there is nothing that he can't say to him! "You didn't let me go just now, and now you want to run? Want to leave me here alone? Dream!

Li Ru couldn't help but feel a warm current rising in his heart, this long-lost feeling of being trusted made him look at Jiang Zhe gratefully.

Qiao Xuan looked at it in surprise and said, "Then the old man said it bluntly!" Shouyi, do you know that after 400 years of watching the Han Dynasty, why did the family stand tall? There's a reason for that! ”

Jiang Zhe rolled his eyes at Li Ru, who was also looking sideways.

"The old man did you a great favor earlier, and it was those families who helped you in front of the old man, but in the final analysis, it was those families who helped, didn't they? It's the cause! Now you have issued that decree to change the commercial tax to the payment of ...... Transaction tax, who thinks of this word, is really awkward! ”

Li Ru looked at Jiang Zhe, who was a little embarrassed, and was happy in his heart.

"Shouyi, have you ever thought that those merchants are from other counties, if you really have any trouble, will they help you? Only those families in Xuchang will come to help you! The old man asked them to come to you, just to let you pay them back, who knew that you actually used this to calculate them, and the old man arranged all kinds of arrangements in vain! ”

When Li Ru heard this, he sneered in his heart, he couldn't bear it anymore, and said, "Qiao Gong Mingjian, if Xuchang is in trouble, it is common sense that the family will help each other, because their wealth and finances are in Xuchang, and they are both prosperous and lossy, how can they not help?" But what if someone else gives them a greater good? Did Qiao Gong think about what kind of situation it would be? ”

Qiao Xuan turned around and glanced at Li Ru, and said hesitantly, "Oh, you are a righteous doorman, and the old man remembers you!" The old man came to ask you, why did you insist that the family would be so unbearable? ”

"Humph!" Li Ru smiled coldly, "Family? That's what I see in the whole family! ”

Qiao Xuan frowned, glanced at Li Ru deeply, and saw that Li Ru had a divine gaze and an extraordinary temperament, and was secretly surprised that he was willing to be a guest under Jiang Zhe.

"Shouyi, do you think so?"

Jiang Zhe tilted his head and thought about it and said, "Zhe has not seen many families, there are Xuzhou Chen family, Xuzhou Mi family, and now these are Xuchang's, but well, those families in Xuzhou are better, they will not raise the price of grain and ignore the people, but will take their grain to help the people, Xuchang's family...... Oh, don't talk about it! ”

Qiao Xuan's face was a little embarrassed, he also knew a lot about some dirty things in the family, but it was the first time that someone said it so directly in front of him.

"Shouyi's comment is ...... Very pertinent, very pertinent! Qiao Xuan took an empty teacup and poured himself a cup, after so many days of getting along, he knew Jiang Zhe a little: that kid is the kind of person who has no eyesight, and he doesn't know how to pour a cup of tea for the old man!

"Shouyi, you are right...... Yes, but ...... You also belong to the family......"

"Me?" Jiang Zhe was stunned for a moment, and then said, "I'm alone, how can I come from the family?" ”

Qiao Xuan glanced at Jiang Zhe with a smile, and said lightly, "You are Situ Wang Yun's nephew and Cai Zhonglang's son-in-law, aren't you also from the family?" ”

"Wrong!" Jiang Zhe was suddenly anxious, and hurriedly explained, "Xiu'er and Zhaoji are committed to marrying, Zheshi is really lucky, but ...... Old man, I didn't get into it......"

Seeing Jiang Zhe calling himself an old man, Qiao Xuan suddenly glared at Jiang Zhe, "Although you don't think you are a family, but what about the people of the world, what do they think?" Situ Wang Yun, Cai Zhonglang, these two names are so loud! ”

Is this old man here to mess around? Do you have to say that I am a family to be willing? Is there a family of people? Ah no, I forgot to count Xiu'er and Zhaoji, it should be three people......

"Shouyi, you see, when Meng De raised something, the Xiahou family and the Cao family came to help, which is also a family...... You have to be valued by Meng De so much now, the front is fine, if Meng De says that the future is strong, there will be a battle under it, and you are ...... alone."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhe immediately frowned, what annoyed him the most was these open and secret battles!

As if he had seen through Jiang Zhe's thoughts, Qiao Xuan said again, "The old man's view of righteousness is also a great weapon in the world, and he is the talent of Wang Zuozhi!" But the power of one person is meager......"

"What do you want to say, old man?" Jiang Zhe looked at Qiao Xuan with a strange expression.

I saw Qiao Xuan say incomprehensibly, "The old man has a younger brother who lives in Dantu ......."

"Report!" Suddenly, a soldier hurried in, bowed and said, "Report to your lord!" Chen Liu's Empress Dowager Zhang Miao conspired with Lu Bu to lead 30,000 troops to attack, the situation was very urgent, and the Dongjun Taishou Chen Palace also rebelled! Merge with Zhang Miao and Lu Bu and come to Xuchang! ”

No wonder Cao Ying couldn't capture Xuzhou, it turned out to be like this...... Jiang Zhe was dumbfounded......
