Chapter 98: Friends and foes
Zhang Yu chatted a few more words, got up and left. The three of them were sent to the door and said goodbye. Zhang Yu turned to the back gate of the City Lord's Mansion, where the four horses of Xinling Jun were tied. Zhang Yu raised his eyes and looked, the back door was not closed, Mr. Xiahou was cutting a large pile of straw with a stone sickle in the backyard, and the fine grass fell on a broken mat in front of him, and a small pile had been piled up. Mr. Xiahou raised his head, and when he saw that it was Zhang Yu, he didn't return the salute, but only put down the work in his hand, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and replied "Mr. Zhang".
Zhang Yu said: "I heard that Mr. is suitable for all coachmen, but he works like this. There are other people in the house, feeding the horses is a trivial matter, why bother bowing in person. ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "The people in the house are unpredictable, and a little trickery on the grass can cause a big disaster." It's better for me to hold it safe. As he spoke, he picked up the broken mat, poured the small haystack into the urn next to him, and added: "The owner of this house seems to know horses, and the forage in the backyard is quite ready. ”
Zhang Yu stepped forward, picked up the stone sickle, and said, "Mr. Wuzhu, can you use it?" ”
Mr. Xiahou smiled: "How dare you! But as if he understood the meaning, he did not shirk it, but laid the empty mat anew, sat down by himself, and pounded the hay in the urn with a stick. Zhang Yu used a stone sickle to chop the straw, but it was also very appropriate.
Zhang Yu said as he slashed: "Mr. Coachman, is it interesting?" ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "How can it be boring. We came lightly, and we had no baggage. Three liters of solar eclipse, three stones for 100 people. Sir, do you know how much this shipment is coming? Thousands of stones of rice, fifty ox carts. This is to make us live here for many years! ”
Zhang Yu said: "I am also very confused. Captain Liang came alone, but he was accompanied by all the sons. Oh, how about Erlu? ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "Erlu still has a relationship with me. ”
Zhang Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "How to communicate?" ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "Who is Ruyi Erlu? Lu Shi, after the actual Qi Taigong. Qi is known for the benefits of fish and salt, and there are many mulberry hemp, and the crown and clothing are all over the world. Its wealthy families enter and exit politics and business, which is really common. Yan's, Guo's, Bao's, Luan's, Gao's, Qing's, all of them are like this, that is, Tian's is also working. After the Tian clan replaced Qi, the Lu clan was scattered, and most of them were wealthy giants. The underwear belt and crown shoes in Daliang City are more than the Lu family. The only two Lu Yuan sold salt horses in the western country. Recently, it has been difficult to make a living, so he has entered the beam and wants Jami. The people who live in it are the treasures of the Lu family in the square. ”
Zhang Yu said: "What is the Lu family's treasure selling? ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "It's just a plaything. Cover beads, tortoiseshells, tooth leather, horn shells, quarrying genera. There are many of them, although they are forbidden. There are even boudoirs, disguised to swim, begging them to have a good time. In the city of Daliang, the prestige is quite high. In and out of the high gate, the carriage and horses are splendid, and the enemy is a prince. ”
Zhang Yu said: "So rich, why bend to us?" ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "The gentleman is frugal, his clothes are not beautiful, and he has no contact with Lu Zhen. Although Erlu lives in Lu Zhen's house, he wants Jammy. Liang Mimo is out of the nursery field and is well-known in the world. Erlu Gai wanted to make friends with the royal family, so he worshiped Mr. Huang first and wanted to introduce him to the king. Mr. Huang knew that Lu Zhen was unbearable, and he really didn't want to associate with him. However, there are princes who recommend each other, although it is difficult for the king to resign, he has to be false and wronged, and it has been ten days. ”
Zhang Yu said: "I don't know this. There are many Mr. Huang in the king's mansion, but I don't know who he worships. ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "It is to buy Huang Jia in the house." ”
Zhang Yu said: "It turned out to be Mr. Huang Jia, this is it." Mr. Huang Jia buys and interacts with businessmen; The Lu family wanted to be introduced by his subordinates, and Mr. Huang was cheap. ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "If it is only a friend of a businessman, it is natural. However, as far as I heard, Erlu Shi was recommended by a certain son, but I don't know how to hear about it. Therefore, Mr. Huang cannot shirk it. ”
Zhang Yu said: "Is Mr. Huang Jia's family a big beam?" ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "Mr. Huang Jia is also a person. The old from Meng to Wei has been submerged to this day. Every word wants to be rooted in Qi, but Qi Zheng is like this, so he has to live in a foreign country. I have not heard of a home in Daliang. ”
Zhang Yu said: "Daliang has no home? There can be people who give up, etc. ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "Gai Qisi buys, and the servants may have it, but they don't live in the house, and we can't hear about it." What is this, sir? ”
Zhang Yu said: "The intermediary Erlu and the Great Liang Lieutenant are the people of the Huang Mansion!" ”
Mr. Xiahou was surprised: "So powerful? But I didn't hear of it. ”
Zhang Yu said: "Cover this suspicion." Let's leave it aside, but let's say two things. Mr. Xiahou thinks, how is Erlu here? ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "Erlu Wu did not see any suspicions, but fifty coachmen were quite unusual. The gentleman tried to think about it, a hundred people are just a chariot, carrying ten stones of grain, which is a three-day eclipse for a hundred people; The rest is the genus of clothing and armor equipment. There are 300 of us, and the Fadang chariot is three times, and the ten are not more than 30 times. This car is several times larger, and the car is twenty stones. How? ”
Zhang Yu said: "I am the gentleman's explanation: Erlu Nai Mi Jia Ye, let go of Jami, I can't but Jia 100 stones." In order to seek a good price, a thousand stones is its usual. ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "But listen to Mr. Both, Xingyang, small city also. The land of the four wars, the attention of all parties; Limited by the pattern, it is rare to have a big exhibition, and the car in the city is geometric. Fifty rides in a car, prepared overnight, who is the Lu family, and this power? ”
Zhang Yu said: "I will explain it for Mr. again: but you have a good price, you can't have it." Erlu did not hesitate to make friends with Xinling Jun. ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "I will listen to Mr. Of the three, the charioteers were all in the prime of life, more than eight feet tall, and none of them were weak; Familiar with etiquette, advance and retreat; Even the current situation is in the chest, swallowing the world. The coachman is so heroic, what family should he be born in? Sir can explain it to me! ”
Zhang Yu slashed the grass with a sickle and said, "Is this true? …… So, I don't understand. May the sir teach me. ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "Such a strong man and hero, it is rare to have one person, and fifty people gather in Xingyang, what are you doing?" And he is a servant of the Lu family, who is the Lu family? ”
Zhang Yu was shocked: "In such a critical situation, Mr. He is as comfortable as this!" Just face the king, take precautions! ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "Mr. Zhang must have a strategy!" ”
Zhang Yu calmed down and said, "Mr. has a lot, I might as well do it." May the sir teach me! ”
Mr. Xiahou said: "I also have thoughts. Fifty strong men will die, yes, yes? Will it be righteous, not yes? Will it be chivalrous, yes? The king is a good and virtuous, can you be inspired, isn't it? ”
Zhang Yu said: "Mr. has far-reaching thoughts, and I can't do it." The meaning of my body is on the king, the feeling on it, the second is the friend, the second is the knot, the second is the release, and the next is punished. Fifty strong men are indescribably punished; Like his righteous man, the world is the enemy......"
Mr. Xiahou continued: "Turning enemies into friends is really the best policy. ”
