Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

Cao Mansion, in the meeting hall.

After seeing the news brought by Li Dian, Cao Cao shook his head helplessly. He could have predicted that things would turn out like this, but what he didn't expect was that it would come so soon.

Those grain merchants are really lawless, how dare they ask him for an explanation?

"Feng Xiao, what do you think about how to deal with those disorderly grain merchants?" Cao Cao asked Guo Jia who was next to him.

Guo Jia said: "Since shopkeeper Chen caused this matter, he should have a way to solve it, or leave it to shopkeeper Chen and Zixiu to deal with it? The time for our expedition is approaching, and we don't have time to deal with the food. business."

Cao Cao thought for a moment, nodded and said, "That's right, let them deal with it, but... there is also the matter of Jia Xu, what do you think should be done?"

Seeing the news from Chen Yang and Cao Ang yesterday, Cao Cao was furious, but thinking that Chen Yang already had a solution to this crisis, Cao Cao trusted Chen Yang, so he put up with it for the time being and did not disturb Sima Fang's family.

However, Xudu is the root of Cao Cao. Once Xudu is lost, he may lose the qualification to compete in the world, and he has to worry about it.

"Prime Minister, what Shopkeeper Chen has done during this period is enough to prove his strength. I think this matter can also be entrusted to him and Zixiu to handle together. By the way, it can also exercise Zixiu's handling ability."

Guo Jia continued: "As for the strength of troops, as long as there is an army hidden not far from Xudu, once Zhang Xiu really comes to attack, he can immediately support him. If the prime minister is still worried, he can keep Lao Dian."

Cao Cao thought for a while, then said in a deep voice: "What a Zhang Xiu, let him escape in Wancheng last time, this time you dare to seek my Xudu, very good! I will let him come and go .”

After pausing for a moment, he said again: "Then follow Feng Xiao's instructions, and hand everything over to shopkeeper Chen and Zixiu. I believe shopkeeper Chen will not let me down."

"What's more, I will also change the hidden guards who protect shopkeeper Chen. The strongest hidden guards under our command were trained by Xiahou's family. They will be arranged immediately. I am worried that when we are away, some people who don't have good eyesight will Do something to shopkeeper Chen."

Having seen all kinds of miracles of Chen Yang, Cao Cao paid more attention to him than all the advisers and generals under his command.

Although Guo Jia was a little envious, she didn't rise to the level of jealousy. She nodded and said, "I'll arrange it right away. By the way, there is also the marriage of shopkeeper Chen. It's a pity that we have to leave Xudu. We missed it!"

Cao Cao didn't take it seriously, he smiled and said: "Feng Xiao, I missed it this time, and there will be a next time. According to my opinion, the marriage between Ning'er and shopkeeper Chen will definitely succeed."

Guo Jia laughed and said, "Congratulations, Prime Minister!"

However, as soon as his voice fell, Xu Chu hurried in from the outside.

"Prime Minister, many grain merchants have come outside. They blocked the gate of the mansion and said they wanted justice." Xu Chu said hurriedly.

Sure enough, there were bursts of noisy voices outside the mansion, and those grain merchants were shouting outside, asking Cao Cao to deal with the tricksters and compensate them for their losses.

"Hmph! Tell Man Boning to bring people over and drive away all the grain merchants."

Cao Cao was very dissatisfied with those grain merchants. Now that they have purchased enough grain, they can live or die.

Anyway, with Chen Yang's water conservancy project, there is no need to ask those grain merchants in the future.

Thinking of this, Cao Cao said again: "Those people dare to block my door again, they will be killed without mercy!"

-

at the same time.

Inside the mansion of Sima's family, Dong Cheng and others were all there. They watched all kinds of news about the grain merchants outside, some with wry smiles and some with anger.

Dong Cheng was very angry at this time, not only was he blackmailed by Cao Ang, killed several people, but also lost a lot of money to buy food, he couldn't swallow this anger no matter what.

"Lord Sima, can you really accomplish this?" Dong Cheng said loudly.

"We have us as internal support inside the city of Xu, and General Zhang Xiu is as a guarantee outside the city. As long as Cao Cao leads the troops to attack Yuan Shu, we will cooperate internally and externally, and Xu can succeed."

Sima Fang analyzed and said: "Nowadays the world is still ruled by the Han Dynasty. As long as the emperor issues an order to designate Cao Cao as a traitor, he can silence the people of the world and get out of the predicament of being controlled by Cao Cao. Why can't it work?"

Dong Cheng pondered for a while, and then said: "I just don't want the second Cao Cao to enter Xudu."

At this time, Jia Xu stepped forward and bowed, and said: "Uncle Dong Guo, please rest assured, as long as Xu's capital city is destroyed and the adults have completely controlled the military power, General Zhang will immediately withdraw and Xu will not participate in the affairs of the city. We're here for revenge and not for power."

Hearing this, Yang Biao said: "Uncle Guo, in my opinion, this is feasible. If I lose this opportunity and want to deal with Cao Cao again, I don't know when I should wait."

Kong Rong nodded, and agreed: "Cao Cao took away the army to attack Yuan Shu, and the interior of Xudu must be empty. With us as the internal support, why not worry about the big thing?"

After thinking for a while, Dong Cheng finally decided: "Okay, let's do it this way, I hope Zhang Xiu won't let us down."

After finalizing all the matters concerning the acquisition of Xudu, Dong Cheng and others left Sima's house.

"Uncle Guo, do you think Sima Fang really only wants to deal with Cao Cao?"

Outside, Yang Biao said suddenly: "I think Sima Fang is deliberately using us. I think that if this thing fails, we will die. If it succeeds, then he may become the second Cao Cao."

Dong Cheng sneered, and said, "Sima Fang wanted to use us, but otherwise, why can't we? As long as we do it cleanly and don't leave any evidence, even if things fail, Cao Cao won't be able to move us. If it really succeeds, I have plenty of them too." Ways to prevent Sima Fang from doing anything wrong in Xudu."

Kong Rong nodded and said, "Uncle Guo is right. You can't be reckless in this matter. You need to have a detailed arrangement before you can cooperate with Sima Fang."

After the words fell, the three of them looked at each other and nodded slightly.

"Father, uncle Dong Guo and others are not so easy to be used by us."

In the mansion of Sima's family, Sima Yi said worriedly.

Sima Fang had expected it a long time ago. He nodded and said, "So, this time we can only succeed. If we fail, we have to leave Xudu, because Cao Cao will know that we are leading behind the scenes, let alone let us go."

Jia Xu said: "Lord Sima, don't be too pessimistic. This time we will definitely succeed. Even if it fails, General Zhang will protect everyone and leave. Please rest assured and cooperate."

Sima Fang said, "Then we will trouble Wenhe."

Sima Yi said viciously: "Father, even if I really want to leave Xudu, I have to kill Chen Yang and Zhang Chunhua before leaving. I can't swallow this breath."

But Sima Lang shook his head and said: "The last time we failed in the assassination, Chen Yang must have prepared for it. Cao Cao has already sent many secret guards to protect him. This matter will never happen."

Sima Yi said confidently: "It's just a dark guard, I don't have to be afraid, I have my own way to solve it, so Chen Yang must die."

"Chen Yang is not a simple person. If he stays, there will be endless disasters." Sima Fang agreed, "If we fail and have to leave Xudu, then Chen Yang will die. If we succeed, it is impossible for Chen Yang to let him alive."

"On this matter, Zhong Da is in charge."

Sima Fang added: "In addition, Boda will handle the matter of withdrawing from Xudu. It will be done in secret, and both sides should be prepared."

"Yes!"

Brother Sima Lang said at the same time.
