Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

Chapter 10

All major forces in Xuzhou are placing bets, with Chen Deng betting big and Mi Zhu betting small.However, the most tangled person in Xuzhou City is the Zhen family, because Zhen Mi is still in Li Chen's hands.

Although the story of Li Chen defeating 30 tiger and leopard cavalry with [-] mo swords has spread throughout Xuzhou City.However, there are still very few people in Xuzhou who are optimistic about Li Chen.Because behind the [-] tiger and leopard riders, there is Cao Pi's [-] vanguard army, and behind the [-] vanguard army is [-] Cao Cao's army.

Xuzhou City, Zhen Mansion.

Zhen Mi's father, Zhen Yi, is currently the head of the Zhen family. The Zhen family is not as prominent as the Chen family, and the biggest official Zhen Yi has ever been is only a Shang Cai Ling.Although the official business is not big, Zhen's business has been doing well in recent years.

Zhen Yi had three sons and five daughters. The eldest son died young. Although his son Zhen Yan became an official, he was not a big official.On the contrary, Zhen Yao, the third son of a businessman, has managed the house in an orderly manner in the past few years, which gave the Zhen family a sense of rising.

In this era, women have to pay for the family.Of Zhen Yi's five daughters, four of them were sent out to marry major forces.And this youngest daughter, Zhen Ji, looks like a fairy.

No, when Yuan Shao was in the limelight, he begged for his eldest son, Yuan Tan.Zhen Yi is an old idiot, so he summed it up in his heart, this relationship is good.Yuan Tan is the eldest son of Yuan Shao, the master of the Yuan family who will take off in the future.At that time, their Zhen family will also fly up to the branches and become phoenixes.

But the weather is unpredictable, who knows that the marriage was settled not long ago.The old Yuan's family was beaten by the old Cao's family and ran away. Zhen Yi, an old fool, immediately regretted the marriage and betrothed his daughter to Cao Pi.

However, this God will have trouble with his Zhen family.Xuzhou was the place of the Fourth World War. Zhen Yi thought about nights and dreams, so he wanted to send his daughter to the Cao family as soon as possible, but who knew that Li Chen was robbed halfway.

"Son, what Li Chen are you talking about, and there are some chances of keeping Xuzhou." Zhen Yi asked his son Zhen Yao.

Zhen Yao was taken aback, and immediately replied: "The chances are, there is a bullshit chance. Cao Cao raised an army of 30, and the city of Xuzhou doesn't even have an army of [-]."

"As I said before, that old boy Mi Zhu is determined to join Liu Bei. We can all run away, but Mrs. Chen can't. Chen Yuanlong is smarter than a ghost. I think he will go to Guyin early tomorrow morning."

"Shou, how does he keep it?" Zhen Yao asked back.

"Hey, we have to find a way to rescue your sister, otherwise Cao Jun will come in and we won't be able to explain it." Zhen Yi said with a sigh.

Zhen Yao pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Father, it seems that we can only redeem my sister first? They were originally bandits on Yunlong Mountain, and they robbed my younger sister for nothing more than money."

"How much money do you need to redeem your sister?" Zhen Yi asked.

Zhen Yao made some calculations in his mind, and then replied: "At least three thousand gold."

Three thousand gold is not a small amount. The main currency in circulation in the Han Dynasty was five baht coins and horseshoe gold.The weight of this horseshoe gold is about one catty, which is slightly lighter in the Han Dynasty, and the current weight is about 265 grams, and the three thousand gold is a full three thousand horseshoe gold.

"Redemption." Zhen Yi gritted his teeth and said.

Although the three thousand gold made him a little distressed, it was not enough to hurt the Zhen family.If something happens to Zhen Mi, when Cao Jun enters the city, he will lose his head.

Xuzhou, State Shepherd's Mansion.

"My lord, Zhen Yao is asking to see you." Zhang Huzi whispered in Li Chen's ear.

The Zhen family is well-known in Xuzhou as an idiot, so it stands to reason that at this time, the Zhen family might be too late to avoid him.How could Zhen Yao come at this time?

Although curious why Zhen Yao would ask to see him at this time, but if it is not a relative, this is his eldest brother-in-law.See, still must see.

Not long after, Zhang Huzi led Zhen Yao in.I saw Zhen Yao followed by a few servants, carrying three wooden boxes.

"Sit down." Li Chen pointed to the position of the lower head, motioning Zhen Yao to sit down and talk.

"You don't need to sit down. My sister Zhen Mi is in the hands of the young master. Here is three thousand pieces of gold. I don't know if it can be redeemed." Zhen Yao didn't want to have any interaction with Li Chen, so he directly stated his purpose as soon as he entered the hall.

Li Chen was taken aback for a moment, and thought to himself, it turned out that he came here for this matter.Then he said without changing his face: "Where is it, we are not bandits now, how can we do kidnapping and extortion."

"It's true that people are here with me. You can take them back anytime."

"Really?" Zhen Yao asked hesitantly.

Li Chen was so eloquent that Zhen Yao was a little puzzled by the monk.

"One word from a gentleman is hard to follow." Li Chen said sonorously.

It's just that as soon as the words fell, Li Chen immediately asked another question that couldn't be matched: "I wonder if the Zhen family is in the business of a bank?"

Zhen Yao was even more confused, but he still answered truthfully: "My family is indeed running this bank business."

"The business of this bank has always been out of nine and thirteen out, does Mr. Zhen know?" Li Chen asked.

"Young master, what you mean is that the three thousand gold is not enough. If it is not enough, my Zhen family can add more money." Zhen Yao said.Now his purpose is to redeem people, as long as Li Chen releases people, money can be negotiated.

"No, no. Mr. Zhen misunderstood, I said no money." Li Chen quickly explained, and then said seriously: "I took away your sister. change the rules."

"Although Lingmei was the only one I took away. But when I change, I have to take at least one more. Of course, the possibility of taking two is not ruled out."

Hearing what Li Chen said, Zhen Yao panicked instantly: "My lord, what do you mean?"

Li Chen straightened his body, and replied solemnly: "Sister Ling, I'm pregnant!"

"Pfft."

Zhen Yao's legs went limp, and he sat down on the ground.

"what."

"pregnancy"

"pregnant"

"who."

There was dense cold sweat on Zhen Yao's forehead, and he asked in a trembling tone.

"It's just a mere lack of talent, and I'm here." Li Chen stood up as he spoke, then walked up to Zhen Yao and made a gesture to help him up: "Uncle, it's cold on the ground."

"Pfft."

Just as Zhen Yao was about to stand up, he was frightened by Li Chen's big uncle and sat down on the ground again.

"Where's my sister?"

"I want to see her?" Zhen Yao shouted.

After a while, Zhen Mi was led in by the servant girl.

"Are you pregnant?" Zhen Yao stared at his sister and said in disbelief.

Although Zhen Mi didn't know why Li Chen asked her to lie, the girl was extroverted. Although she and Li Chen were married without an official matchmaker, they were already married.At this time, it is natural to face the husband's family.

"En." Zhen Mi replied shyly.

Zhen Mi's "hmm" sounded like a thunderbolt to Zhen Yao's ears.

"Mi'er, my father-in-law misses you too. If not, you can go back with your brother today." Li Chen said very understandingly at this time.

"no!"

"It's better not to go back yet! The city is dangerous now, and the state pastoral mansion is safer." Zhen Yao hurriedly refused to let Zhen Mi return to the mansion.

If Zhen Mi was alone, Zhen Yao would dare to let him go back even if he was broken now.But now that she is pregnant, Zhen Mi has completely become a hot potato.Back to the Zhen Mansion, it would be a complete mess.
