Chapter Seventy-Six: Xuzhou Mizhu

"Gongjin, aren't you kid in a hurry? How did you come to Xuzhou City? The old man found out that you kid, since the old man promised to protect you, your kid is not in a hurry, and he can walk fifty miles a day, but he only walks thirty miles, is there any more crooked idea? If it hasn't arrived for another half a month, the old man will have to go home. Tong Yuan found that from the time he met Zhou Yu, this kid gave himself good wine and meat every day, and he was a good apprentice! Later, he found that Zhou Yu always tried to put a little bit of money on his body, except for the famous stunt Bainiao Chaofeng was not handed over to him, everything else was inadvertently told to him. The more he walked, the slower he walked, and Tong Yuan finally realized that something was wrong.

"Hehe-hey-Master, I'm not thinking about walking slowly and walking around your old man's house, eating and drinking some good food, and then changing your outfit, so as to honor and honor you! Besides, you always eat more salt than I eat rice, playing tricks in front of you, isn't it Lu Ban getting a big axe in front of the door? Your apprentice also has some small industries of his own in Xuzhou, and he passed by to see how the development is? Today, please try the specialties here. In the past few days of getting along, Tong Yuan also taught Zhou Yu everything, not only giving Zhou Yu how to use dark energy, but also teaching him how to hone his state of mind, and finally taught Zhou Yu a unique technique of sending dark weapons, this trip can be said to be Zhou Yu is very fruitful. His gratitude to Tong Yuan came from the heart, although Tong Yuan said that someone hired him to kill him, in fact, he guessed that it was possible that his grandfather or father came forward to ask Tong Yuan to protect him, and if possible, teach himself some self-defense skills. However, such a cute and dedicated old man is really rare, the children of the rivers and lakes will not have a long relationship, and Tong Yuan is afraid that he will not be willing to leave this apprentice after a long time.

"You kid, Fengxiao, Zhongde and the old man will go together, Gongjin will treat you today - give the old man an open stomach and eat hard, it is best to eat this kid until he goes bankrupt!" Looking at Zhou Yu with a hippie smile, Tong Yuan was also very helpless, so he could only turn his grief into food, and waved and shouted Guo Jia, Cheng Yu, and the guards to fight the local tyrants!

"Tong Lao-good, good, good, Fengxiao, I raise my hands in favor, fight the local tyrants and divide the fields-brothers let's go-" For Tong Yuan's proposal, all the people present felt that Tong Lao was really a good person, a good person, wow! The happiest dancer is Guo Jia, who is estimated to stay in the wine vat for the rest of his life and doesn't want to come out.

Zhou Yu looked up at the sign of a five-pointed star under Biyuexuan, and confirmed that it was his own industry, so he ordered his subordinates to drive the carriage and horses into the courtyard, and asked the shopkeeper to feed the horses good forage. He, Tong Yuan, Guo Jia, and Cheng Yu walked into the restaurant, and the shopkeeper invited them to a private seat in the morning.

"Xiao Er, ask your shopkeeper to come here, and say that there are distinguished guests looking for him. Hurry up—" When everyone was seated, Zhou An asked the shopkeeper to arrange good wine and food for their people, and then let their shopkeeper come over. Normally, as a boss, it is appropriate for employees to report their work here, but the communication technology is too backward in this era, Zhou Yu, Zhang Shiping, and Su Shuang discussed and made a brand to identify their identity, and the material of the brand is a better wood. Zhou Yu's front brand as the boss is engraved with five five-pointed stars of the same size, and the back is a vacancy left by Zhou Yu to trap the five-pointed star, this place is anti-counterfeiting, except for Zhou Yu's brand, the five stars are the same size, and other people's brands have a relatively large star according to their different identities. Just like Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang's signs, the first star on the brand shows that it is the person in charge of these industries. The rest of the order is different depending on the jurisdiction of the industry, the size of the star display is also different, if the shop is small, if the brand that has just been brought in, the last star is shown to be the largest. However, for the sake of secrecy, it is now a sign that does not recognize people, but it must be like a person with a star before it can be handled after consulting and reporting. Zhou An also carries the same brand as Zhang Shiping, and he usually helps Zhou Yu when he goes out.

"Young master, Zhang Shiping is here—is it convenient to see him?" Zhou An came back after a trip and whispered to Zhou Yu.

"Oh? It's all his own people who let him in! It just so happened that I had something to explain to him-" There were only five people sitting on the table: Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Tong Yuan, Zhou An, and Zhou Yu, and the huge table was very empty. However, in terms of identity, they are all Zhou Yu's confidants, although Tong Yuan has known each other for a short time, how can a person who can teach Changshan Zhao Zilong, a victorious general with both virtue and art, be a small man. In addition, Tong Yuan is now his own teacher, and he will have a good idea after meeting his own people.

"See the young master-" Zhang Shiping's momentum when he came in was the same as when Luoyang was down, at that time, he had to rely on fraud to eat a meal, wearing a coarse cloth short coat with yellow muscles and thin muscles. Now Zhang Shiping is dressed in bright clothes and wearing a hat, with a short beard, a ruddy complexion, and a gleam in his eyes, looking at a very capable person.

"Hey! Come sit down - Shiping, it seems that your little life is still good? They all looked fat. You've received all the messages I sent you, haven't you? And how did you appear in Zixuzhou, shouldn't you be in Jizhou? Zhou Yu was also smiling when he looked at Zhang Shiping, Zhang Shiping did not let himself down for more than two years, from the beginning of the small food began to set foot in restaurants, and then began to slowly infiltrate the grain, iron ore, salt industry, but the effect is not obvious. Therefore, Zhou Yu asked him to choose a place to recruit people to open mines and open furnaces to make up for the shortcomings of the iron trade, and the grain could only be used to let him buy more from the south of the Yangtze River to earn greater profits. If there is only salt, in addition to seawater drying salt, Zhou Yu has not thought of where there is a natural salt farm. But these are all Zhou Yu trying to set the tone, and the rest of the operations are all operated by Zhang Shiping, and Zhang Shiping has worked hard to develop to this scale.

"Young master, you're going to joke with me - I don't know who these are?" Zhang Shiping was also very comfortable when he saw Zhou Yu joking with him, at least Zhou Yu did not regard him as a subordinate, but as a brother. He didn't know the three people in front of him, and he rarely went back to Luoyang recently, but he knew that the one who could sit with them must be the young master's newly recruited talent.

"Haha-let me introduce you to you, this is my master Tong Lao, this is Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao, the prodigal son of the wine world, and this is Cheng Yu Cheng Zhongde, both of them are my friends who went to Yangzhou with me to help me govern Yangzhou. Master, Feng Xiao, Zhongde, this is my Zhou Yu's royal god of wealth Zhang Shiping, I can spend so casually all thanks to Shiping's financial support, everyone knows each other as a family. After Zhou Yu opened his mouth to introduce these people, only Guo Jia protested against Zhou Yu casually giving him such an ugly nickname, burying his handsome and dashing Guo Jia and Guo Fengxiao. Everyone is used to seeing Guo Jia playing treasure, and they all laugh and ignore him.

"Young master, you sent me a message asking me to pay attention to shrinking our goods, as well as the matter of changing the name and changing the shopkeeper, I have already ordered to go down, this time I came to Xuzhou mainly because something happened here. The salt, iron, and grain we are involved in here in Xuzhou have been intervened by the Xuzhou Mi family, and this month's sales have plummeted - I came here this time to plan to talk to Mi Zhu, the head of the Mi family, otherwise I feel that I really have no face to see the young master when I can't make money, and it's too embarrassing to have a lot of tricks handed over to me and can't make money. It's just that this Mizhu shelf is a bit big, and I have been turned away from visiting several times. As soon as I heard that the young master was coming just now, I came over immediately-" After a while of greetings, everyone began to get acquainted, and Zhang Shiping began to feel the bitter water in his stomach.

"Mi Zhu? It is also a business family, and it is said that his family is considered to be a rich country. It seems that his bones are a little difficult to gnaw, I wonder if you have any good advice? Zhou Yu heard that it was the local big family Mi family who was against him, and suddenly had some interest in meeting this person for a while, he was a party giant with a unique vision, and he voted all his sister and Wanguan family wealth to the down-and-out Liu Bei, and began to wander around with Liu Bei, and finally after Liu Bei established the Shu State, he became the only person above Zhuge Liang, but later his younger brother Mi Fang rebelled against the Wu State, which led to Guan Yu's defeat and killing, although later Liu Bei did not blame the Mi family and Mi Zhu, But Mi Zhu finally died of anger and remorse. However, the most talked-about thing is that Mi Zhu's investment vision is really high-

"Such a small matter, you don't need Brother Zhongde and Tong to make a move, why don't I make a move and let Mi Zhu take the initiative to send it to the door?" Guo Jia whispered what he was going to do, everyone present was rolling their eyes, only Zhou Yu clapped his hands and said that if someone enters me, I will enter him, since Mi Zhu is not a lift, then so many of our strong dragons will press him, the head snake.

"That's it-Zhou An took one of my greetings and sent it to Xuzhou Taishou Mansion, and asked him to get together in Biyue Xuan tomorrow!" After Zhou Yu and the others discussed, they instructed Zhou An to take the official seal of his Yangzhou Taishou, write a post and send it to the Xuzhou Taishou Mansion.

Zhang Shiping accepted Guo Jia's idea to arrange how to deal with Mi Zhu, and the show was about to start-
