"The profit of working is tenfold; Zhu Yu is priceless, and its benefits are a hundred times greater; The benefits of seeking the country will be inexhaustible. This is the words of Lu Buwei, a wealthy businessman in the past. I think that Lü Buwei went from a businessman to a prime minister who held the power of Qin. If it weren't for the First Emperor's majesty, he might not have fallen to the bottom of the worst, but would have replaced that Great Qin. ”

Hearing Wei Tao's words, Xun You looked straight and said seriously.

"The Mizhu brothers also made a fortune in business, and even now although they are engaged in Xuzhou, the reason why their family is important is also because the Mi family is rich and has industries all over Xuzhou. Of course, Mi Zhu and the two are naturally much worse than that of Lu Buwei, but this principle is universal. ”

Wei Tao nodded, this kind of thing is actually not too harsh in this era, marriage is the most common means of major families.

can not only hold the beauty, but also be able to get the help of the Mi family, Wei Tao has no disgust in his heart.

That's Mi Fang, there are people under Wei Tao who are stronger than him, but that Mi Zhu is a rare talent, and Wei Tao is still a little eager for it.

"What Gongda said is very true, but now that the Mi family is still under the rule of Xuzhou, even Kong Rong will not let the Mi family leave at will, so how should it be?"

Wei Tao knew that he was not as flexible as Xun You in terms of wisdom alone, and Xun You was obviously already confident, so he didn't bother to think about it, and just asked.

"Huh...... The lord is thirsty for talent, and you also understand, but the lord does not have to be so urgent, and the Mi family brothers are not ordinary people, and they will not take refuge in the lord at this time. ”

Xun You smiled slightly and said slowly.

"What's more, doesn't the lord like that Taishi Ziyi? If there is no one around to speak up for the Lord. Even if things change. How dare the lord guarantee that Taishi Ziyi will take refuge in the lord? ”

"Oh?"

Wei Tao frowned slightly. After thinking about it for a while, Xun You's words did make some sense.

"Is Mi Jiaken so concerned about me?"

"Mi Zhu's strategy may not be able to look at the world, but the world is gradually chaotic, and the princes can still understand the trend of disrespecting the Han family. Especially this time Cao Cao invaded Xuzhou with such fanfare, but the Han family did not even make a will, and I am afraid that the heroes of the world are known, and this is the time to make contributions! ”

Xun You's expression was straight, and the word 'princes' came out of his mouth for the first time.

"The lord has the heart to support the Han family. The ambition to expel the Tartars is for public expense, even if Cao Mengde is not as good as that, he is the object of refuge. The Mi family naturally yearns for it. ”

Wei Tao nodded again, and then asked again.

"Gongda, the Mi family stayed in Xuzhou, I'm afraid it's not just for Taishi Ziyi. But is there a plan for Xuzhou? ”

"Sure enough, I can't hide it from my lord. Xuzhou is the land of the four wars, a horse Pingchuan has no danger to defend, but Xuzhou is rich, if it is obtained, it can raise countless soldiers. It is also a place of anointing. Now the lord is in Bingzhou, which is too far away from Xuzhou. The whip is beyond reach, and there is Cao Mengde occupying Xiaopei, eyeing the tiger, if you don't plan early, how can there be a place for the lord in Xuzhou in the future? ”

Xun You nodded, without the slightest evasion, and said directly.

"With the Mi family and the Taishi Ziyi, it can inhibit others from encroaching on Xuzhou, and the lord takes this opportunity to develop and grow in Bingzhou, and in the future, Kuang Fu Han family, expelling the Tartars, there must be the name of the lord in the history."

Wei Tao finally understood what Xun Yu meant.

In fact, the reason why Cao Cao will surrender Cao Bao is that there is no intention of relying on the strength of Cao Bao's family.

Since it has been decided to surrender the Mi family, Wei Tao naturally did not refuse to communicate with the Mi family, several times, Wei Tao saw Mi Zhen every time, although it is not said that there is any love and adultery, and there is not even any physical contact, but from time to time he laughs and amuses, and there are many beauties.

After all, Wei Tao only came to Xuzhou to help, and now that Cao Cao has retreated, Wei Tao is naturally preparing to lead people away.

Kong Rong is a sincere gentleman, and he also knows that if there is anything in the future, he still needs Wei Tao's help, so he took out a lot of money and food from the Xuzhou treasury to send it, and he did not refuse Wei Tao's request to recruit a group of soldiers from the Xuzhou army.

In this way, Wei Tao was replenished with 5,000 soldiers.

However, the Mi family did not talk positively about the matter of taking refuge in Wei Tao, but only said that Mi Zhen admired the scenery of the north and sought to go to the north, hoping that Wei Tao could take care of it.

Although it was not explicitly stated, it was actually spoken.

The Mi family sent 200 people to escort them, and they gave Wei Taoliang 500 horses as remuneration.

The Mi family's actions were not concealed at all, and at present, it is very common for all the big families in the world to disperse and work, and the Mi family's actions are just to further win over Wei Tao, so they did not cause too many waves.

A team of people, Wei Tao walked in front, loyally escorting Mi Zhen's car, the curtain on the car was slightly provoked, and a gentle gaze was directly projected on Wei Tao.

Under the escort of a team of people, the convoy slowly stepped out of Xiapi City, but at this time, a commotion came from behind.

"Stop! Get them! ”

In the midst of a burst of shouts, a horse rushed into the team and rushed straight to Mi Zhen's chariot.

"Stop coming!"

Although Mi Zhen is accompanied as a guest, as long as there is a little bit of eyesight, I don't know which one of them is likely to become Wei Tao's wife, as long as there is a chance to perform now, everyone is dedicated.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a young and beautiful woman on the horse, I am afraid that countless knives and spears would have stabbed down, but Rao was like this, and countless sharp blades pointed directly at all parts of her body, as long as she made the slightest abnormal move, she would immediately die on the spot.

"Are you going to finish...... Woo......"

When the woman saw countless swords approaching, she suddenly whimpered, and the short sword in her hand was just trying to wipe it off her neck.

"Sister Yuan!"

At this time, a shout suddenly made everyone stunned.

It was none other than Mi Zhen who shouted this.

It turned out that this was someone Miss Mizhen knew, and she thought of this. Countless blades quietly moved away from the woman's side. However, everyone is still very vigilant. I'm afraid that this woman will do something wrong.

"Sister Zhen! Woowoowoo......"

When the woman heard Mi Zhen's voice, she couldn't help but cry and fell off the horse, seeing this, Mi Zhen hurriedly got out of the car and held the woman, so that she could comfort her.

"What happened?"

At this time, Wei Tao also turned his horse's head back from the front, and looked carefully, there were still many Xuzhou soldiers in the rear, but they were blocked by Wei Tao's command. The reason why this horse was able to rush in was also because Wei Tao's subordinates didn't pay attention.

"Lord, I'm afraid this is the Tao family's revenge on the Cao family."

At this time, Sun Gan, who was following Wei Tao, said in a report.

"I have also met this woman, he is the daughter of Cao Bao. Although the Mi family and the Cao family were opposed to each other in the past, it is said that the relationship between Miss Mi and Miss Cao is excellent, and now it seems that this is indeed the case. ”

"What does revenge mean? Even if Cao Bao surrenders to Cao Cao now, but he has not done anything to betray, even if those soldiers do not surrender to Cao Jun, I am afraid that it will be a dead end. With the wisdom of Tao, even if he is unwilling to let go of Cao Bao. But it won't move his family, isn't he afraid of offending the various clans in Xuzhou because of this? ”

Wei Tao was a little puzzled.

"And even if there is a need for revenge. If he didn't do it when he was in power, what is it to do it now? ”

While speaking, Wei Tao couldn't help but glance at Cao Yuan, she was indeed a stunning woman, not inferior to Mi Zhen in the slightest.

Cao Yuan, the daughter of Cao Bao!

Wei Tao also thought about it, if the memory is correct, this Cao Yuan's history should have been married to Lu Bu and became his wife, and now she is really beautiful at first sight, otherwise Lu Bu would not have taken a fancy to her.

But now that Cao Bao has surrendered to Cao Cao, I'm afraid that this Cao Yuan will not have a chance to marry Lu Bu again, and I don't know if Lu Dao is a good thing for her, after all, Lu Bu is the last to lose.

"I'm afraid this is his son doing it in private."

Hearing Wei Tao's inquiry, Sun Qian shook his head slightly and said disdainfully.

"Although Tao Yuanjun is resourceful, it is a pity that his two sons are mediocre and unusable."

"Oh?"

Just as Wei Tao was about to continue asking, he saw two men riding two horses to the front, and he was unceremoniously scolding the Xuzhou soldiers.

"What about Cao Yuan, who asked you to arrest? Haven't caught it yet? His father dared to surrender to Cao Thief, he was a sinner in Xuzhou, and he would be punished! ”

Hearing such a reprimand from the two, someone suddenly wanted to step forward to do something, but just after taking two steps, he saw that Wei Tao was very strict in governing the army, and he didn't dare to step forward.

"These two are the two sons of Tao Xiangjun, the eldest son is a merchant, and the second son is a merchant. These two people are mediocre, and it seems that they are dissatisfied with the agreement between the lord and Cao Cao, and they use the excuse to rectify the Cao family, and now they do not retreat when they bump into the lord, and I think it is because of this. ”

Sun Qian obviously knew a lot about the affairs of Xuzhou, and immediately explained to Wei Tao beside Wei Tao.

"Hehe......"

Wei Tao sneered twice, he was not interested in dealing with the two sons of the Tao family at all, so he was ready to order Sun Qian to negotiate and continue to lead people away.

"General, Sister Yuan is now being forced by the pottery merchant and Tao Ying to be a slave and a maid, which is very pitiful, and I hope the general can save her."

But what Wei Tao didn't expect was that before Wei Tao left, Mi Zhen suddenly stepped forward and said to Wei Tao.

"Save her?"

Wei Tao frowned slightly, although he didn't look down on the pottery merchant and Tao Ying, Wei Tao was not a forgetful person, and he didn't want to offend the Tao family for a woman.

"Yes, because General Cao Bao surrendered to the Cao army, now the Cao family is in great decline, the pottery merchant and Tao Ying came to the door again and again to persecute the Cao family, and the Cao family had to compromise, but Sister Yuan was unwilling, this is the way to escape from the house, and I don't want to be caught up. If the general can take her away with him, he will save Sister Yuan. ”

Mi Zhen had obviously asked all the things from Cao Yuan's mouth, and said it very quickly.

Hearing this, Wei Tao raised his eyes and looked, and after a closer look, he found that Cao Yuan was different from ordinary women, with a slender figure, especially a pair of slender thighs, which seemed to have a bit of strength, such a woman was rare at this time.

However, if you look closely, there is a trace of weakness in her eyes from time to time, and her body trembles slightly.

"What a woman who is rigid on the outside and soft on the inside."

Wei Tao couldn't help but sigh secretly in this heart.

"General! Hearing about the general's fame, he wanted to support the Han family and expel the Tartars. Now that a woman in distress asks for help in front of the general, is the general not even willing to help? ”

Seeing that Wei Tao didn't answer for a while, Mi Zhen couldn't help but say again.

"Miss Mi!"

Sun Qian has always been good friends with Mi Zhu, and when he saw Mi Zhen's words, he was afraid that she would anger Wei Tao, so he immediately reminded him.

"General!"

But Mi Zhen didn't hear it, and knelt down directly in front of Wei Tao, and at the same time raised her head and stared at Wei Tao tightly.

"Please also ask the general for help."

"Mi Sister ......"

Seeing Mi Zhen like this, Cao Yuan also rushed over and knelt down, tears flowing, but she couldn't say a word.

"One is rigid on the outside and soft on the inside, and the other is soft on the outside and rigid on the inside, but they also complement each other."

Wei Tao smiled secretly in his heart, and directly rode his horse to meet the two sons of the Tao family.

"Two sons, there is no one you are looking for here, please go back!"

As soon as he spoke, Wei Tao said directly to the two who had been entangled.

The pottery merchant and Tao Ying are the sons of gentlemen, and they originally asked Wei Tao if they would hand over Cao Yuan, so they have always been kind to each other, but now when they heard Wei Tao's unceremonious refusal, they immediately blushed.

"What do you mean? It's obviously that little girl! I don't want you to do anything, just to hand over that little girl's skin, is it all impossible? ”

That Tao Ying heard Wei Tao's refusal like this, and immediately pointed at Cao Yuan, who shouted.

"Where is my Tao family not as good as his Cao family? Did she let her be a concubine for our brother or did she wronged him? It's not bad that they didn't wipe out their whole family, but they dared to surrender to Cao Thief, who is our sinner in Xuzhou! ”

Although Tao Ying was a sinner, Wei Tao's eyes swept and found that the people who were watching from afar were not very harsh, obviously the two brothers of the Tao family were not very popular in this Pi City.

"As I said, there is no one you are looking for here, and as for the woman, she is my handmaiden. How? Do you still want to rob the maids? ”

Although Wei Tao spoke very politely, he also invisibly gave the potter and Tao Ying a step, as long as the two of them responded to this matter, they could turn this conflict into invisible.

But Tao Shang and Tao Ying are just two gentlemen, and they faintly heard that Wei Tao also forced Tao Qian to give up the position of Xuzhou Mu, and it was Wei Tao's reason that Kong Rong did not return the position of Xuzhou Mu to the Cao family immediately.

Originally, the two of them were still a little jealous of Wei Tao in their hearts and were unwilling to clash head-on, but when they heard Wei Tao's unceremonious words, both of them couldn't bear it. (To be continued......)
