Cao Pi frowned secretly when he heard this name, and said with a wry smile: "But I am also penniless, this time in order to raise money and food, the food and clothing in the house have also been reduced by half." ”

Xiahou Nan smiled: "I naturally know that the virtuous brother has no money, even if you have money, you can't be the master, so you have to make money!" ”

Cao Pi was puzzled: "Then why do you want me to contribute?" ”

Xiahou Nan had already thought of countermeasures along the way, and said with a smile: "Although the virtuous brother has no money, but your third uncle is rich and rich, so what's the harm in borrowing one or two million?" ”

"This ......" Cao Pi frowned and said: "The third uncle is stingy by nature, and he only gave 100,000 yuan to raise money this time, but I am afraid that he will not borrow it." ”

"Who wants to donate money for nothing?" Xiahou Nan glanced at Cao Pi, "And borrowing money is different, it will be repaid in the future, and there will be interest payment, why not?" What's more, this matter is related to the lifelong event of the virtuous brother, it is reasonable, as the third uncle, how can he not help? ”

Xiahou Nan wanted to follow Liu Qi's example to sell furniture, which only appeared in Jingzhou, and if it was sold in Xuchang, the Central Plains and even Hebei, it would definitely surpass Liu Qi.

However, because Xiahou was thrifty, all the money was rewarded to his subordinates, and he did not manage the industry, and he spent all the money in his family, lacking start-up capital.

The first thing he thought of was Cao Hong, the richest man in the Cao family, but he definitely couldn't borrow money, so he simply pulled Cao Pi and used his eldest son to do things much more conveniently.

Cao Pi was puzzled: "My brother-in-law wants to make money, how can I do my life's work?" ”

At this time, the two of them had already walked out of the house, and Xiahou Nan said in a low voice: "Ziwen is excellent in martial arts, Zijian is talented and quick-witted, you can't compare to these two, and Cangshu was born smart, and the prime minister even has the meaning of passing on the posterity, as the eldest son, if you want to win, you need to do more practical things, solve problems for it, and become the prime minister's right-hand man." ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Cao Pi's face changed slightly, he looked around cautiously, and said in a deep voice: "How sure are you about this?" ”

"There is no basis for what you say, I'll take you to see it!" Xiahou Nan walked briskly and said: "I guarantee that it will open your eyes, as long as the funds are in place, you will be able to return to your capital within a month." ”

……

Xiangyang City, with the advent of Hanxingtang furniture, has set off a vigorous change, especially among the wealthy families, it is a competition to order.

In just a few days, nearly 10 million yuan was collected in the deposit alone, which made Liu Qi sigh with great emotion, the family background of these big families is simply bottomless.

At the same time, at an auction held in Shuiyunjian, those old furniture were also sold for a high price of 50 million, and a piano case by Mr. Shui Jing alone was auctioned for 3 million.

Those lowly merchants spared no effort to snap up these celebrity utensils, so as to elevate their status, and offer them to the high hall, and people can brag about it.

A mansion on the east street of the Cheqi General's Mansion is a private residence given by Liu Qi to Xu Shu's old mother for the elderly.

After Liu Xian took Zhou Budo's mother and son to Xiangyang, he thanked Xu's mother and proposed that the two families get married.

Mother Xu saw that Liu's family was virtuous and gentle, and Zhou Budo was extremely smart, and Xu Shu had passed the age of standing and was worried about this matter, so she agreed.

Today is the day of great joy for the two, although they did not do it in a big way, they are all famous people, not to mention Zhuge Siyou, Pang Tong, Xiang Lang, etc., it can be seen that Xu Shu is also very traveling.

After the visit, Zhou Budo worshiped Zhuge Liang as his teacher, and Liu Qi asked Huang Zhong to take Deng Ai to study together.

One is a prodigy of the Three Kingdoms who has been passed down to future generations, and the other is a self-taught general of the Three Kingdoms, with the teachings of Zhuge Wuhou, which is really exciting.

As for Tianshui Qiliner Jiang Boyo, let's wait until the opportunity arises!

At the end of the banquet, everyone was saying goodbye, Zhang Wei came in quickly, whispered a few words in front of him, and Xu Shu ordered him to invite Liu Qi and a few people to the study.

Zhang Wei does have his own people, but he is not Zhang Wen's grandson, but the grandson of the clan, after Dong Zhuo killed Zhang Wen, he fled to Jingzhou for refuge, and was the first batch of talents recruited by the Yanfeng Battalion.

Sending the guests away, Xu Shu turned back to the room and said with a smile: "Cao Cao really increased his troops to Chang'an, sent Cao Hong to guard the pass, and sent troops to attack the pass. ”

Surrounded by the furnace in winter, Zhuge Liang still shook the feather fan lightly: "Wuguan is the gateway to Guanzhong, this move will contain the strength of the Cao army, and Ma Teng can take advantage of the situation." ”

Liu Xian frowned and said: "Cao Cao is powerful, once Wuguan uses troops, he will definitely delay the sun and the moon, Sun Quan suffered a setback in Huainan, and he has been peeking at Jiangxia for a long time, I am afraid that he will take the opportunity to move." ”

Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "Don't worry too much, Sun Quanxin is in power, the initial Shanyue, and the battle in Huainan, the soldiers must be tired, the money and food are not enough, Yun Chang is the enemy of ten thousand people, how dare Dongwu watch?" I expected that Dongwu heard that I had a relationship with the Cao family, and I was jealous, but at this time, I moved troops, and I must be secretly happy, happy to see the fight, and move when I see the opportunity, and I will not easily send troops. ”

Liu Qi nodded and said: "I transferred General Guan to guard Jiangxia, and Gan Xingba trained troops in Dongting, just to prevent a sneak attack by Eastern Wu, don't worry." ”

Xu Shu said: "Cao Hong ordered Xu Huang to lead 30,000 troops to take the military pass, and he is determined to win this place, Xu Huang is quite capable of using troops, and I am afraid that General Wei is not his opponent." ”

Liu Qi said with a smile: "Wen Chang also has generals, which is enough to reach Cao Jun." ”

Zhuge Liang said: "Although Wuguan is small, it involves the situation in Guanzhong, once it is lost, Jingzhou will be alone against Cao Jun, not careless." There are a lot of capable people in Cao's army, although there is no need to increase troops, Liang is willing to guard the pass, just in case. ”

Xu Shu also hugged his fists and said: "Since I am offering advice to take Wuguan, I should go there, and by the way, I can also inquire about the news in Guanzhong." ”

If it was freezing today, even the number of military training sessions was reduced by half, and no one wanted to go out, but these two people took the initiative to ask for their lives, obviously not trusting Wei Yan enough.

At this time, Xu Huang had already become famous, while Wei Yan was promoted from the ranks, and in addition to charging into battle, he did not show the ability to command troops.

Liu Qi was about to tell you that the two of them were evenly matched, and Wei Yan's defense was not inferior to Cao Ren, but he heard a lazy voice sound:

"The two newlyweds Yan'er should be in the gentle township, how can they brave the wind and snow, go out to suffer the cold, won't they be laughed at for my lack of Jingzhou? It's better to leave these things to those of us who have nothing to worry about. ”

Turning his head to look, it was Pang Tong, who was already a little drunk, his beard was stained with wine, and the two best friends got married one after another, he didn't know whether to be happy or to use wine to drown his sorrows.

Zhuge Liang smiled helplessly: "Shiyuan doesn't need to worry, I'll ask someone to make a big match for you." ”

"Why does a big husband have no wife?" Pang Tongyi waved his hand, wiped his mouth and said: "In the battle of Nanyang, I traveled to Jiangdong and failed to serve Jingzhou, I deeply regret it. ”

"In that case, please ask Shi Yuan to go to Wuguan!" Liu Qi nodded and said: "I have another way to defend the palace, but I can keep the martial arts as stable as a rock." ”

Zhuge Liang and Wei Yan can't urinate in a pot, but Pang Tong has a similar temper, and the two may be able to become a tacit partner, just cultivate it as soon as possible.

In the face of old foxes like Cao Cao, Zhou Yu and even Sima Yi, the courage of military generals alone is not enough to win, Liu Qi wants to send troops in the future, and military generals are equipped with a military advisor.

Now that he has a sleeping dragon and phoenix chicks, plus Xu Shu, who has changed his fate, the three top strategists seem to have a luxurious lineup, but Liu Qi still feels that it is not enough.

Compared to Cao Cao's talents, where is this?
