Chapter 161: Jia Xu's Friend?

Liu Pet still met Xu Shao, or Xu Shao finally met Chen Wang Liu Pet, in short, these two people met. One million stone of grain is enough for 20,000 troops to fight for a year, and if there is no war, it is enough for a million people to eat for a month.

Although Xu Ling has repeatedly affirmed that Liu Pet will definitely admit it, Xu Shao still feels that it was only after Liu Pet himself opened his mouth that he felt safe.

So, at the first glance of Liu Pet, Xu Shao couldn't wait to say this right away, and then asked Liu Pet to nod. However, these things are not the point for Liu Pet, and the reason why Liu Pet came back so quickly is actually because of his curiosity about Xu Shao, a big celebrity. So when I heard that the negotiation was over, I immediately turned around and came back to see what was so special about the famous Xu Shao.

At first glance, hey, hey, it's also a mortal. Xu Jing is like this, Xu Shao is the same, it seems that celebrities are just like that.

However, the disappointment in Liu Chong's eyes became another meaning in Xu Shao's eyes. With a sigh, Xu Shao was shocked, Mom, why did King Chen have a disappointed look, did he want to regret it? That's not good, I must get this million grains.

"King Chen, after I go back, I will definitely arrange the displaced people from all over the country to go on the road as soon as possible, so that they can reach Yuzhou as soon as possible." Xu Shao himself felt that he had earned, and he wanted weapons and food, especially food, food was as expensive as gold these days, Xu Ling, a fool, only put forward the requirements of the population, looking at the disappointment in King Chen's eyes, you can imagine Xu Ling's future days.

Liu Pet: "Spring is coming, if you wait for you to gather displaced people from all over the country to come to Yuzhou, I'm afraid that it is already autumn, and you will miss a year's cultivation in vain." It's better to be like this, Huainan recently, you might as well directly move the people from Huainan to Yuzhou, and resettle the people from other places to Huainan, so that there is still time to do it. ”

"At the same time, the food we promised is the same, ten people and one stone of food, as many people as you send, we will send as much food as we want, pay money with one hand and deliver it with the other, Tong Su is not deceived, this is a business."

Liu Pet is not very interested, to be honest, in Liu Pet's opinion, the people of the Xu family have a great reputation, and the so-called Confucianism is also very strong, but the actual ability is not very good, and it is not as good as a down-to-earth person like Lu Fan and Liu Ye.

So, Xu Shao left Chen County in a hurry and hurried back to report to Liu Xuan.

Liu Pet: "Wencai, you did a good job, this time it is a great achievement for you." I don't know how many people can be abducted from Yangzhou this time, but they are all arranged in Runan, which now needs a large number of workers to develop various workshops, and at the same time several counties close to Huainan should also enrich the population in order to strengthen the defense force in the future. ”

Luo Jun: "Yes, King Chen, I will inform Master Zhang Zhi of these immediately." ”

Liu Pet: "Liu Miao got food from us, and at the same time there was a population movement, Sun Wentai would definitely send someone to Chen Guo." Tell me, what will Sun Wentai say when he sends someone here, and how will we deal with it? ”

Xun You is overjoyed, Liu Pet is now more and more able to take precautions, and the degree of thoughtfulness makes Xun You excited, the lord is not wise, he is a straw bag, and this interest group will not go far.

Xun Yu immediately: "Lord, salt, salt from Jiangdong." ”

Liu Pet's eyes opened, Jiangdong is close to the sea, and it has always been an important area for salt production. In these days, salt is a luxury. Sometimes being able to eat salt is just as exciting as being able to eat meat. For the current Han Dynasty, there are only two ways to come from salt, one is well salt, which is also very little, only a small amount in Shu. The other is the most important way to come, sea salt. Needless to say, you have to be close to the sea.

The further inland you go, the more expensive the salt becomes, and for a reason.

Liu Pet: "Yes, yes, salt, for the sake of health, our people must have enough salt." I had a verbal agreement with Wu before, and in the past year, the business cooperation with Wu has indeed changed the salt situation in Yuzhou, but it is far from enough. Wu Clan, no matter how powerful he is, but he is not a large-scale powerful faction after all. ”

Luo Jun: "King Chen, if you vigorously develop salt merchants with Jiangdong, it is not impossible, but salt merchants must have rules of management, and salt tax is an important income." ”

Liu Chong: "Well, this is also a kind of compensation for the family, and if you restrict them on the land, you must compensate them in other aspects, but it can't be excessive, everything must be controlled in the hands of the government." In the past, land was monopolized, and in the future, I don't want to see commercial monopolies. Large business groups should be restricted, medium-sized should be encouraged, and small ones should be assisted. In addition, the government must not stay out of the matter, and important industries must be involved. ”

After talking for a day, in a word, if Sun Jian comes, there is nothing to say. Chen Guo and Liu Xuan did not have a military alliance, so it could be regarded as a commercial transaction. It's okay with you, salt, aren't your weapons bad, isn't there enough iron ore, we can trade.

Not to mention that Liu Pet and others are dealing with Liu Xiang and Sun Jian, the shadow leader Jia Xu is already in Chang'an, thousands of miles away. Jia Xu came to Chang'an for Cai Yong's business, but now that Cai Yong is fine, Jia Xu quietly calculated another person.

In front of him were two battle-hardened generals, rough and majestic, and the young one was especially despicable. The two of them and Jia Xu raised their glasses and drank bitterly, leading the veteran: "Wenhe, I thought I was dead, but I didn't expect you to be alive." ”

It can be seen that these two generals are really good to Jia Xu. Jia Xu smiled: "The old general and the young general are fellow countrymen, they are not more than a hundred miles apart, and they have been friends for ten years. ”

It turned out that these two people were none other than Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu's uncle and nephew, who were recently stationed outside Tongguan, near the Lu family, less than two hundred miles away from Wuguan.

Zhang Xiubiao is Dingyuan, excellent in martial arts, especially a set of marksmanship, it is said that he came from the head of the big boy Yuan, and when he was young, he was already the king of guns in the north.

Zhang Xiu: "I don't know where Wenhe is now?" Because Zhang Xiu and Zhang Ji's uncle and nephew are actually not much different in age, they both directly call Jia Xu's name. Here, Zhang Ji also looked at Jia Xu expectantly.

Jia Xu smiled, knowing that the uncle and nephew had always wanted to win him over, and said: "I can't hide it, Xu is now under the command of King Chen, and he doesn't need to sort out official documents all day long, and he is not allowed to show up, which is exactly what I like." ”

Jia Xu is low-key and good at self-preservation, and the things that can not come forward are of course his favorite.

Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu were stunned and shocked: "Are you under the command of King Chen?" Jia Xu nodded and joked: "The general shouldn't tie me up and give it to Xiangguo." ”

As soon as Jia Xu said it, the young Zhang Xiu spouted: "Give it to the old thief ----", but Zhang Ji shouted: "Dingyuan." Zhang Xiu was taken aback, and then stopped talking, but Jia Xu had already heard it clearly, and he giggled in his heart, I already knew these things, otherwise I wouldn't have come to you, Dong Zhuo is very exclusive to you, who told you that you can't be as obedient as Li Dao and others.

Jia Xu pretended not to know and was surprised: "General, Xiangguo ------ not good for you----? ”

Zhang Xiu: "Hmph", drinking stuffy wine by himself, Zhang Ji glanced at it, but shook his head and sighed.

Jia Xu was in a hurry, and stood up on half a foot: "General, what the hell is going on?" Could it be that Xiangguo squeezed out foreign generals? ”

Zhang Ji: "Hey, Wenhe, it seems that I can't hide anything from you, that's right, my uncle and nephew, next time, I'm afraid that the next time Wen and you come, we won't even have the water and wine to entertain you." ”

"Huh?" Jia Xu shouted, extremely indignant: "The general is so talented, why don't Xiangguo use it?" How stupid. ”

Zhang Ji: "Wenhe is so virtuous, he can't use it, let alone me and other martial artists." ”

Jia Xu did it all at once, bowing his head and saying nothing. Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu saw Jia Xu thinking, and couldn't help but look over. Zhang Ji: "Wenhe, is there any clever plan to help my uncle and nephew get out of such an embarrassing situation." ”

Zhang Xiu was also taken aback, only then did he remember Jia Xu's ability, and hurriedly rushed in front of Zhang Ji with a very eye-catching look: "Wenhe, if you can get out of this realm for my uncle and nephew, I will thank Wenhe on behalf of my uncle." "Say goodbye.

Jia Xu was shocked, and hurriedly stood up and grabbed Zhang Xiu: "Little general, don't be like this, help you." ”

Zhang Ji was overjoyed, and Zhang Xiu hurriedly stopped kneeling, really kneeling is really a bit of a face-saving thing.

Jia Xu was very embarrassed, the solution was not to think about it, he lowered his head and drank three cups in a row, and then slapped his thigh, Zhang Ji Zhang Xiu's eyes moved, and he looked straight ahead.

Jia Xu: "General, Dong Zhongying is already ambitious and only cares about enjoyment, why don't the general stand on his own and stay away from Dong Zhongying." ”

"Huh?" Zhang Ji screamed, but Zhang Xiu's eyes lit up.

Jia Xu: "Yes, self-reliance. Choose a place in the world, be self-reliant and self-protective, it is expected that today's Dong Zhongying is no longer the Dong Zhongying of the past, even if he raises troops to beg, it is just a casual action, and the general will no longer have to suffer from Dong Zhongying's anger in the future. ”

Zhang Xiu hurried: "Now that Luoyang has no owner, all it takes is a fake Guan Die to deceive the guards of Hangu Pass, and we can take Luoyang in an instant, what does Wen He think?" ”

Jia Xu shook his head: "No, Hangu is in the hands of Dong Jun, and it is close to Chang'an, which is not conducive to defense, and Luoyang is ruined, and the people are less than 150,000, how can it be a good land." The Tiger Prison Pass is also in the hands of Chen Liu, although there are not many soldiers and horses, but it is a worry, Luoyang is attacked left and right, which is inappropriate. ”

Zhang Xiu very much agrees with the statement of self-reliance, so he is very active: "What about Hedong, Hedong Niufu guards, and Chang'an across the river, there is such a natural risk, Dong Zhongying can't help me." ”

Jia Xu: "Hedong is where Dong Zhongying made his fortune, if you take it, he will fight hard with you, and besides, Niu Fu's 100,000 army is not a general can win." ”

"That-" Thinking about it, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but be anxious, how many places can you go around? It's not suitable, so it's a fart to stand on your own.

"W-hey, forget it."

Jia Xu shook his head: "The young general missed a place." ”

"Where?"

"Nanyang."
