"I want to be too guarded!"

After Zhang Rang heard this, his eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he said slowly: "It's not that our family collects money and doesn't do things, it's too heavy, you are young, you are not qualified, and you are hopeless to be too guarded!" ”

Liu Xiu's face sank.

"But ......," Zhang Rang said, "there is no hope for the vital land, the fertile land; But in the middle of nowhere, there is some possibility! ”

As he spoke, he took out the map and pointed it.

The Eastern Han Dynasty had 16 states and 137 counties, and one county was equivalent to the mayor of later generations. Many prosperous large counties have been booked, and it will not be his turn, but some small counties, remote places are possible.

There are also restrictions on selling officials.

For example, only those who are based on seniority can buy officials, and they can become officials without having money. It's like Liu Xiu is in business and makes countless money, but he doesn't have enough qualifications to buy the post of Tai Lieutenant; With his qualifications, buying Taishou is the limit.

In addition, most of the official positions sold are fictitious officials, with high positions and light power.

For example, Cao Cao's father bought the position of Tai Lieutenant, which seems to be a high and powerful position, but in fact he has the name of prime minister, but there is no prime minister. Spend money to pretend to be forced, but not in words.

Many are too guarded, Hebei and Guanzhong have the highest prices, followed by the Central Plains, the closer to the south, the cheaper the price.

"How is Jiujiang, how is Yuzhang?" Zhang said.

"I choose Jiujiang!" Liu Xiudao.

"Good, good!" Zhang Rang said: "The price is 30 million yuan!" ”

Liu Xiu arched his hand and said: "Zhang Hou, please rest assured, within three days, it will definitely be delivered!" ”

After glancing at Liu Xiu, Zhang Rang was very satisfied, interesting and capable.

"If nothing else, step aside!" Zhang Rang waved his hand and said.

"Retire!" Liu Xiu arched his hand and said goodbye and left.

Leaving Zhang's mansion, Zhang Fei hurriedly asked, "Big brother, did this trip go well?" Did you say yes? ”

Liu Xiu didn't speak, and only after returning to his residence did he say: "Zhang Rang has already agreed, it won't be long before the imperial court will order me to be the Taishou of Jiujiang!" ”

Thirty million dollars, for him, is just a small meaning. As the saying goes, if it can be solved with money, it is not a problem, and many cannot be solved with money, and that is the big problem. Become Jiujiang Taishou, with the first foundation, with the first pot of gold, it is worth paying more price.

A few days later, he met Cao Cao again.

"The imperial court, with my merit in fighting thieves, moved to Jinan Taishou!" Cao Cao said.

"I am too shou for Jiujiang!" Liu Xiu said, a little envious.

"Jiujiang County, belonging to Yangzhou, is located in a wild place, and there are often mountains and barbarian chaos!" Cao Cao frowned and said: "Xuande has a great merit, and the court treats you so poorly!" ”

"Although I am the king of Zhongshan, I am already a distant branch of the clan, and I am already a cold family, so it is good to be a taishou!" Liu Xiu said, "This farewell, I don't know when I will see you again!" ”

"If you don't get drunk, you won't go home!"

As he spoke, Cao Cao poured down the wine, and the two drank to their heart's content.

There are three major irons in life, we have carried a gun together, prostituted together, and shared a window together. The two fought together and were classmates together, which can be regarded as an iron relationship, so they almost didn't pick up girls together.

…………

The next day, Liu Xiu arrived at Cai Yong's mansion.

"Meet the teacher!" Liu Xiu stepped forward and said respectfully.

"In the past, I had a good conversation with Zigan, but today things are different!" Cai Yong thought of the deceased Lu Zhi, and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart.

Liu Xiu comforted: "Since ancient times, no one has died in life, and he has left Dan to take care of his sweat." Although Duke Lu is dead, his name will be passed down through the ages! ”

As he spoke, the two talked about trivial matters again.

Liu Xiudao: "Teacher, I was named the prime minister of the plain because of my meritorious work in quelling the rebellion against the Yellow Turban; spent another 30 million yuan to bribe Zhang Rang and move to Jiujiang Taishou. Soon to be in office! ”

Listening to the bribe, Cai Yong sighed and said: "You have meritorious service in fighting thieves, but you have such an official position, and the court treats meritorious heroes lightly." It took bribes to take office......"

He laughed as he spoke, and was extremely miserable.

Cai Yong is a clear stream and extremely arrogant, but he is not ignorant of the world. Bribing Zhang Rang in vain and using it to sell his official position is certainly a stain, but it is not helpless. People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.

"Apprentice, if you want to ask Zhao Ji to be your wife, please ask the teacher to fulfill it!" Liu Xiu said again.

does not suffer from no wife, only suffers from no merit.

If he is just a student of Taixue, just a descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, he can't open his mouth, and he will be humiliated when he opens his mouth; But at this moment, he is Jiujiang Taishou, and he can be regarded as the number one person.

"Zhao Ji is a new widow, remarrying at this moment is not appropriate after all!" Cai Yong hesitated.

Liu Xiu said: "I want to follow Sima Xiangru and live up to his feelings!" ”

often walks in Cai Yong's house, knows Cai Yan well, and has a trace of affection, but he doesn't know whether affection can be transformed into love.

After a while, a woman walked out, about fifteen years old, with a young face, but it was difficult to hide the wealth of the city, a delicate and flawless goose egg face, moth eyebrows and phoenix eyes were quite amorous, and Qiong's nose and cherry lips were more elegant and intellectual. Although he is young, he has an elegant and quiet temperament.

It's a pity that with the weeping sideburns that only women have, they are the new widows of Wenjun.

It was Cai Yan.

Cai Yan's original word Zhao Ji, the Later Han Book has its biography, the author changed to Wen Ji because of avoiding Sima Zhao's secret, and the name was changed to the Western Jin Dynasty, and Cai Yan was no longer alive. From then on, she was called Cai Wenji.

Cai Yong told what happened and asked, "Zhaoji, what do you think?" ”

Liu Xiu was apprehensive.

Cai Yan said: "It's all up to Daddy!" ”

As he spoke, his face flushed, and he turned to leave.

Liu Xiu also breathed a sigh of relief. If the woman says that everything is up to her father's will, it is a refusal to marry, and there is no play; If the woman says that everything is up to her father, then it is done, and she agrees.

"What are the teacher's plans?" Liu Xiu asked again.

"Xuande, what does this mean?" Cai Yong said.

Liu Xiu said: "Heavy ears are safe outside, and Shen Sheng is dead inside!" The Yellow Turban Rebellion is not the end, but only the beginning. Soon after, the world was in turmoil, and it was too unsafe in Luoyang. You don't see it, Liu Yan was too often, but he moved to Yizhou Mu. Yizhou is far away from Luoyang, and there are mountains and rivers blocking it...... If it is in troubled times, it is a peaceful place! ”

"Teacher, Luoyang is too unsafe, let's go to Jiujiang! Leave Luoyang, leave the land of right and wrong! ”
