"If you can, you can buy 5,000 horses."

After Mi Zhu and Chen Deng glanced at each other, Mi Zhu finally spoke.

"Five thousand horses?"

Wei Tao was very skeptical that he had heard it wrong, this time he had defeated the Huns again and again, but after deducting those dead and wounded war horses, Wei Tao was only able to get more than 10,000 in the end.

Of course, this does not mean that Wei Tao is able to form 10,000 cavalry, after all, the formation of cavalry still needs a lot of things, but Kong Rong's purchase of war horses with such fanfare is obviously not used to breed war horses.

"Raise five thousand cavalry at once?"

"The general also knows that all cavalry must be formed in a team in order to be able to exert real power. Although the cost of 5,000 cavalry is not small, it can still be supported by the wealth of Xuzhou. ”

Chen Deng said with a slight smile.

"Of course, if you have any opinions, you can put them forward, I believe that with the breadth of my Xuzhou, I can still meet the requirements."

Wei Tao really had to think carefully, five thousand war horses was not a small number.

"Yes, and I have admired Mr. Wenju for a long time, but I don't need to be more than 50%, as long as it is 30% more than the market price. However, we are short of grain in the state, and more importantly, the state has just passed through the Xiongnu, and the money and grain must be exchanged for fifty-fifty points. ”

After a period of deep thought, Wei Tao spoke.

"Thank you, sir."

Mi Zhu and Chen Deng got up and bowed to Wei Tao in unison, no matter what, Wei Tao was already extremely benevolent and righteous.

Food is also extremely important in troubled times. But not to mention that it is not yet a time of shortage of food today, just because of the wealth of Xuzhou, I don't care whether it is used for silver money or grain.

It's just that if you use food, it's more difficult to transport, but that's not a problem to everyone.

Since the discussion had been completed, Chen Deng immediately deduced that he had left the table tired after the arrival of thousands of miles.

Obviously, Chen Deng also understood that Wei Tao and others still had private things to talk about.

"My lord, that Chen Yuanlong's wisdom is quite extraordinary, he can be said to be the first handsome man in my Xuzhou, why don't you recruit him?"

When Chen Deng left, Mi Zhu said with a smile.

"Huh...... When did Zizhong also learn to joke. That Chen Yuanlong is indeed capable. It's a pity that his heart is only in Xuzhou, but it is meaningless for me to join the state! ”

Wei Tao also knows that his subordinates are very short of people, so now in front of Mi Zhu, who is already his own person, he is blunt.

"To be honest, I hope to get Mr. Zizhong's help as soon as possible."

"Loved by adults. Zhu was deeply uneasy. It's a pity that Zhu is willing to serve with adults. But now Xuzhou still can't leave, not to mention that Chen Yuanlong may also have insight into the deep meaning of this purchase of cavalry. Although he didn't think about his family, he might not be an enemy of the lord. But in my opinion, the Chen family is probably more fond of that Cao Mengde. ”

Mi Zhu first saluted Wei Tao, and then spoke.

"After all, the merger of states spans several states between Xuzhou, thousands of miles apart, even if Xuzhou belongs to the general, it is just an enclave, but the Chen family is unconvincing adults."

This is the truth, and it is also the reason why Wei Tao has never been particularly enthusiastic about Chen Deng.

"Zizhong, what do you say? As I said, if Zizhong has all the words to say, why should it be so? If that's the case again, I'm afraid Zhen'er will really be angry with me. ”

Wei Tao chuckled and said, of course, the title of Zhen'er is called by Cai Yan's daughters on weekdays, Wei Tao is really not very easy to use before Yu Mizhen gets married, but saying it at this time makes Mi Zhu laugh and feel a lot easier.

"Since this is the case, then I am also blunt, this time I am ready to recommend a virtuous person to the adult, this person is slightly younger than the adult, but his person is quite steady, gentle and trustworthy, and it is even more rare that his person has a big overall strategy, can live in one place to view the world, I have asked each other about Xuzhou political affairs, and its answer is all harmonious, there is no omission, and it is rare to be honest."

After Mi Zhu smiled, his face was straight and then he said slowly.

"Adults are young talents, and they also reuse immortal talents like Zhou Gongjin, so they shouldn't have said that. But this person is rare, and I hope that adults will use it deeply. ”

"Oh? is worthy of Mr. Zizhong's words, dare to ask who this person is? ”

Wei Tao was also curious at this time, to know that all capable people must have arrogance, although Mi Zhu is generous, but this arrogance is also there, and those who can afford Mi Zhu's words are obviously not ordinary.

"This person is a person from Langya, the son of the famous scholar Zhuge Jue."

Hearing this, Wei Tao's heart suddenly jumped, Langya Zhuge Clan, it can't be that one, right?

"Dare to ask what is the name of this person, can he come to me and join the state now?"

Wei Tao finally couldn't help but ask first.

"This person's single name is a Jinzi, and now he has come with me, and now he must be resting in the mansion, if the adults want to see him, he can be summoned at any time."

It turned out to be Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Liang's brother.

Thinking about it, Zhuge Liang must have just started his studies now, so it is unlikely that he will come to take refuge.

Although there is a trace of disappointment in my heart, after all, in later generations, Zhuge Liang is said to be a god, and if you can get Zhuge Liang, it will naturally be the best.

However, having said that, in fact, being able to get Zhuge Jin is enough to make people overjoyed.

If Zhuge Liang is a 'dragon', then Zhuge Jin can be called a 'tiger', even if it is inferior, there will not be much difference in his ability.

"To be so praised by Mr. Zizhong, he must be a great talent! Hurry up, please! Hurry up, please! ”

In fact, according to Wei Tao's thoughts, even if it is to greet him in person, it is nothing, but thinking of what Mi Zhu said before, now Zhuge Jin is not more than Zhou Yu's age, and it should really be said that he has just come out, at most he has some reputation in Xuzhou.

With Sun Qian's more victorious reputation at that time, he was also recommended by Mi Zhu, and Wei Tao should not be like this.

If it is really greeted at this time, I am afraid that other people will also muttered in their hearts, even Zhuge Jin is afraid that he will have some doubts.

So although Wei Tao was also excited about it at this time, he didn't dare to do it.

Zhuge Jin is a talented person, if he really doesn't want to be a leader, then he must not come.

After a while, a young man slowly walked into the main hall, walked in front of Wei Tao, and saluted Wei Tao.

"Langya Zhuge Jin has seen Lord Zhoumu."

The young man's attitude is neither humble nor arrogant, of course, if it is seen by someone with a heart, it is a bit unruly.

However, Wei Tao understands that if such a great talent can't convince him, then that's the case, although it seems polite, but the distance is actually far away from you.

"Mr. Ziyu, please take a seat, Mr. Zizhong has great respect for Ziyu, I don't think Ziyu will disappoint me, right?"

Wei Tao just smiled lightly and said, and then saw that Zhuge Jin was not restrained, and then sat down and looked at Wei Tao indifferently.

"I don't know how Ziyu views me and the state?"

"The land is vast and sparsely populated, and the land is not fertile, but the grain and grass available are insufficient. Although there is a horse farm for horses, but in my opinion, although the exchange of goods for horses is suspected of subsidizing the Huns, but the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and the horse farm in the state itself can only support its own military horses. ”

Zhuge Jin also knew that this was Wei Tao who was taking the school himself, and immediately said his views one by one.

"Of course, Bingzhou is located on the border, the people are fierce, and if its soldiers are sufficient, they can train a rare elite army in the world, which is the advantage of Bingzhou."

However, it is obvious that when Zhuge Jin answered, he was also testing Wei Tao.

If Wei Tao can't even accept the advantages and disadvantages of the annexation state itself, then it is not a master.

"What Ziyu said is true, but does Ziyu know my ambition?"

Wei Tao smiled, but he didn't care too much about what Zhuge Jin said, but suddenly asked Zhuge Jin rhetorically.

"I heard that the general has great ambitions, and he wants to comfort my big Han border troubles, and this ambition is so ambitious, Jin is very convinced."

Hearing Wei Tao's question, Zhuge Jin responded with a straight face.

"Recently, I heard that the general broke the Huns again, although the casualties were also considerable, but it can be seen that the general's talent is no less than Wei and Huo, which is extremely admirable."

Speaking of the most reluctant, with Zhuge Jin's calmness, he still couldn't help but move his face slightly.

"Does Ziyu know my righteous brother Zhou Gongjin? His age is similar to that of Yu Ziyu, and even slightly younger, but the reason why he was able to win the battle against the Xiongnu this time depends on him and Gongda. If it weren't for the two of them plotting again and again, how could they deal with the Hun cavalry? ”

Hearing Wei Tao mention Zhou Yu, Zhuge Jin's face changed slightly.

Today's Zhuge Jin is still just a young man, although he is calm by nature, he also has the arrogance of young people, so although he is ready to come to take refuge, he still wants to try Wei Tao to see how his heart is.

But being said by Wei Tao, Zhuge Jin has already discovered his superficiality.

"But Jin is superficial, and what General Zhou did is incomparable. The northern drive of the Huns is the foundation of the immortality of our Han Dynasty, and its achievements are also very admired by Jin. ”

I have to say that Zhuge Jin is worthy of being Zhuge Jin, he is indeed quite broad-minded, and in the face of Wei Tao's secret accusations, he clearly admits it.

Speaking of which, Zhuge Jin just got up and saluted Wei Tao respectfully.

"Lord Qiyu, Jin Zhi has learned so far, and he is also a little familiar with things, and now he is begging under the command of adults, not seeking to be known to be noble, but to be able to show his ambitions, but one day he will be able to drive the Huns north with adults, and restore the glory of my Han Dynasty!"

Zhuge Jin's words came from his heart, and his gaze at Wei Tao was even more blazing.

"Well said!"

Wei Tao immediately got up, walked in front of Zhuge Jin and held his arm is words.

"I believe that with Ziyu's talent, he will not lose to Gong Jinye, Ziyu doesn't want to disappoint me."

"No."
