Coincidentally!My name is Liu Bian

Chapter 109 Su Shuang supports the front line

Mainly just messing around.

In fact, there is no need to rush around at all...it's all Zhang Fei's fault!
"——Xiao Zhang! Don't block the way! Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way quickly! I want to take all the pork and use it as dry food to eat on the road! If I don't eat meat these days, my mouth will fade. Taste." Zhang Fei sat upright and raised his voice, completely unaware of how outrageous his request was.

Then he saw a young man who looked like a domestic servant with a bitter look on his face, and warned tremblingly: "Ancestor! It's too luxurious to use pork as dry food. If we really want to take away all the pork, wouldn't it mean that the Zhang family would directly... directly... …”

The young man was too embarrassed to say "go bankrupt".

But this does not prevent Zhang Fei, who is rough but subtle, from being able to hear the underlying meaning of the young man.

With a glare, Zhang Fei said: "If I ask you to take it, you can take it. What nonsense are you talking about?"

With such an angry rebuke, the young man dared not say anything else and went to get the pork dejectedly.

I don’t know how to use “take all the pork”.

The whole Zhang Mansion was busy: Just because the mighty Zhang Fei demanded all the pork, it must be slaughtered... Slaughtering all the pigs, is this a big project?No matter what, it will take a day or two to do it? ——Unfortunately, Zhang Fei said no!
It takes too long!
With a wave of his hand, Zhang Fei ordered a group of infantrymen to come over and help the young man get the pork.

Afterwards, the people on the other end were supposed to be slaughtering pigs and cutting pork; the people on this end, such as Liu Bian, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, etc., were unconscious and as quiet as chickens—all of them stared at Zhang Fei intently, I can't believe that Zhang Fei would kill all the pigs he raised... Is it true?

As the commander-in-chief of the generals, Liu Bian swallowed his saliva and praised: "Zhang... the county magistrate has done a good job!"

Ok? !

Everyone was stunned and looked at Liu Bian in unison.

Liu Bian thought to himself: In the past, the military ration was rice porridge with wild fruits, but now it is rice with pork. The food quality has improved, and the nutrition has also improved. Isn't it a good thing?It's just... I just don't know if the current pork is delicious?

He wanted to say something, such as the eighteen ways to eat pork, but Liu Bian was more afraid of scaring everyone... Why can pork be easily made into delicacies?He stopped playing tricks.

Tightening his face, Liu Bian did not dare to tell the truth, but said: "Pork is delicious, comparable to delicacy! Using pork as military rations will greatly enrich the taste of the soldiers? Isn't it great to taste delicious food?" ?
Besides, the price of pork is not cheap, right? ——Magistrate Zhang is willing to give up his family's wealth and donate supplies. Isn't he doing a good job?I admire County Magistrate Zhang’s approach very much? "

Zhang Fei scratched his head and said in a cheerful voice: "Your Highness has given you a compliment. Your Highness has given you a compliment."

Liu Bei sighed softly, and said to Zhang Fei: "Third brother, thank you very much! You... Alas! Actually, you don't have to be like this."

Zhang Fei waved his hand and said boldly: "Brother, don't be upset, it's my own volition! What's the point of donating some pork? Brother is always on the run, so he really should replenish his body. Don't be tired."

After hearing this, Liu Bei smiled, patted Zhang Fei on the shoulder, and asked, "Do you need help?"

"No need?" Zhang Fei said, "Brother, let's prepare some other food?"

"That's fine." Liu Bei agreed readily.

Later, Liu Bian saw Zhang Fei making arrangements to buy grain: He also sent servants to buy all the grain in and around Ji County!

Afraid of trouble, Guan Yu said he would accompany him.

Everyone was busy doing their own thing, mobilizing the enthusiasm of all the infantry and preparing food and fodder quickly.

——This time, the number of troops led by Liu Bian reached more than [-]. Although it was said that there were not many people, it was not enough, but everyone did not dare to move into the Zhang Mansion. Firstly, they were afraid of impoverishing the Zhang Mansion; secondly, this was too much. High-profile, it will attract attention!

What's more, everyone's time is precious, and they have to lead troops to Guanzi City in western Liaoning to support the besieged General Gongsun Zan and his cavalry. Although there has been no contact between the two sides before... With the friendship of Liu Bei, Gongsun Zan's former classmate, I believe Gongsun Zan will not What misunderstanding might arise?
At this moment, a servant of Zhang's mansion suddenly came to report, reporting:
"My lord, there are people outside the mansion asking to see you."

The servant didn't know Liu Bian's identity, so he called him "Young Master".

Liu argued: "Who is it?"

At this time, the person who dares to visit him must be someone he knows.

The servant said: "The visitor calls himself "Su Shuang". "

"What? Brother Su Shuang is here? - So, where is brother Shiping? Brother Shiping is here?" Before Liu Bian could be happy, Liu Bei's eyes lit up and he was very happy.

The servant shook his head and said, "Mr. Su Shuang is the only one."

He took a look at Mr. Liu Bian, but saw that Mr. Liu Bian was not looking sideways, and he was calm and calm.Involuntarily, the servant lowered his head silently.

"Would you like to meet Mr. Su Shuang?" Liu Bian asked.

Liu Bei was slightly disappointed and sighed: "I thought I could meet Brother Shiping and Su Shuang again."

After all, Liu Bei cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, please grant me your permission."

Shrugging, Liu Bian said, "Please bring Mr. Su Shuang."

The servant took the order, turned around and left to find Su Shuang?

When he was young, Su Shuang came and bowed to Liu Bian in surprise, then turned his eyes to Liu Bei... "Brother Xuande!" Su Shuang was full of surprises and looked at Liu Bei intently.

Liu Bei also had red eyes, as if he hadn't seen Su Shuang for several years, and called out: "Brother Su Shuang!"

Liu Bei and Su Shuang looked at each other and laughed.

At this moment, everyone present could see that Liu Bei and Su Shuang had a close friendship.

Waving his hand, Liu Bian said considerately: "It seems that you two have not seen each other for a long time. Do you have something to say? - I allow you two to talk somewhere else."

...Don't affect the progress of our food preparation!

Patting his head, Su Shuang was reminded by Liu Bian and suddenly remembered the business, and said: "Your Highness, please forgive Cao Min for being rash... In fact, Cao Min came here this time and made an agreement with Brother Shiping: I Brother He Shiping has decided to donate another 50 yuan and [-] tons of food. Please don’t refuse!

In addition, Brother Shiping is already buying, and will come to meet you soon. "

This... is this right?
Liu Bian thought in a daze: Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang seemed to be inseparable. It turns out that only Su Shuang came here this time. Is it because Zhang Shiping is responsible for donating materials?
"Your Highness, Caomin has something to say to you in private." Su Shuang's request sounded next to his ear, "It's about the two letters you wrote to me and brother Shiping respectively."

Liu Bian: "..."

Think, remember!
That day, when Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang were about to leave Nanpi County, it was Liu Bian who wrote two letters... Strictly speaking, they were two appointment documents. They were given to Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang, and they were told to read them only after returning home. Take a look at the letter.

So, Su Shuang needs to express his wishes to him first?

Realizing this, he moved his gaze towards Liu Bei and others.

Then he saw Liu Bei and said, "I'm going to see if the water in the well is dry. To be honest, I'm a little thirsty."

Guan Yu stroked his beard and walked away, cherishing his words like gold.

Silently, He Miao also followed.

Zhao Yun said warmly: "Your Highness, should I avoid it first?"

Tian Feng said: "My eyes are heavy and I'm a little tired. I'll take a rest first."

He Xian waited for the guards to retreat on their own initiative, not forgetting to express their anger to Zhang Yan and the three young men led by Cao Ang.

Zhang Yan was very cooperative and walked away.

With his eyes crooked, Cao Ang ignored He Xian and other guards, and glanced at Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi, waiting for his companions' answers.

How should Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi respond? What else can they do?

Quietly, Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi followed Cao Ang.

Then, Cao Ang took Yuan Tan and Yuan Xi away...

In an instant, the people around were all walking around, not even a hair was left behind.

In the huge space, only Liu Bian and Su Shuang were left.

Pouring his lips, Liu Bian didn't know what to say for a moment.

Su Shuang cut straight to the point and said, "Your Highness, I agree." Huh? !

Liu Bian blinked: Agree? ——Are you agreeing to accept the position of "Jun Shaofu"?

County Shaofu, the office in charge of the county's finances, was the title of the post that Liu Bian appointed Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang to.

In the past, Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang had made an agreement with him, saying that they would consider returning to Nanpi County next year... Unexpectedly, Liu Bian and his people came to Jixian County in person and met Su Shuang.

"Great." Liu Bian stroked his palm, "I want to tell Uncle Wang about this matter."

Grinning, Su Shuang bowed to Liu Bian as a formal subordinate, and then Liu Bian personally helped him up.

"By the way, did Mr. Shiping agree?" Liu Bian remembered that he hadn't met Zhang Shiping yet?

Su Shuang said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, brother Shiping also agreed."

"That's good." Liu Bian was secretly happy.

Su Shuang tilted his head and said, "Your Highness, there is another happy event I haven't told you."

"What's the matter?"

"The porcelain made by Master Yuan Shiyi is extremely popular!" Su Shuang praised without hesitation. "When Brother Shiping and I first arrived in Youzhou, I don't know which dignitaries heard the news and bought a lot of them in a grand manner. Porcelain, so much so that when we tried to sell porcelain at the border, we ran out of stock..."

"Hahahaha!" Liu Bian was amused, "Really? I think Yuan Shiyi will be very happy when he hears this news."

"Okay, as the county's young governor, Brother Shiping and I, can we ask for another piece of porcelain from His Highness?"

"Okay?" Liu Bian's lips curved, "But you have to go to Nanpi County again."

"This request is too simple!" Su Shuang chuckled, "Brother Shiping and I will follow you and return to Nanpi County together... Your Highness, why did you come to Youzhou?"

"Is this it?" Liu Bian shook his head in embarrassment, "This is a secret, no comment."

This is pure nonsense.

Anyway, Su Shuang didn't believe it.

but……

Liu Bian said: "I will not be returning to Nanpi County in the near future. Please be patient about the ceramics."

Su Shuang curled his lips and said, "Your Highness, you really don't want to tell me the reason why you came to Youzhou?"

Liu Bian paused, tilted his head and said, "What do you think?"

Su Shuang was thoughtful and didn't speak for a while.

One small and one big, looking at each other, big eyes staring at small eyes.

Until another servant came to break the awkward atmosphere:

"Sir! Another person wants to visit!"

Another servant said to Liu Bian.

Narrowing his eyes, Su Shuang vaguely realized something.

But Liu Bian asked: "Who is the other party?"

"The other party said his surname was Zhang and his first name was Shiping..."

"Mr. Zhang Shiping?" Liu Bian and Su Shuang said in unison.

Taking the lead, Su Shuang carefully ordered: "Invite people here!"

Afterwards, Liu Bian and Su Shuang successfully met Zhang Shiping after a long absence.

"Your Highness!" As soon as he saw Liu Bian, Zhang Shiping saluted neatly, "I won't say anything more... Like Brother Su Shuang, I am willing to accept your recruitment, Your Highness, to become a "County Young Mansion"!
After all, I earned it!
I don't know what the Sheriff's Mansion is, but at least I jumped from "merchant" to "gentry"... I am very satisfied, very happy, and even more fortunate!
Without you, Your Highness, I, Zhang Shiping, would not be where I am today! "

With his eyes shining brightly, Zhang Shiping stared at Liu Bian and proved with actual actions: Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang are completely different... If Su Shuang is said to be aloof, Zhang Shiping should be secular, thoroughly implementing what it means to be a profit-seeking businessman. Face.

...Naturally, Liu Bian couldn't express what was in his heart.

Helping Zhang Shiping up, Liu Bian said with a smile: "My king's help from Mr. Shiping is like receiving dew after a long drought."

Liu Bian and Zhang Shiping looked at each other and smiled.

At this time, Liu Bian suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps.

Before he could react, a familiar male voice sounded, saying:

"Brother Zhang! Brother Su! You are indeed here!"

——It’s Liu Bei!

At the same time, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also arrived.

Liu Bian: "..."

His eyes stopped on Zhang Fei. Liu Bian looked sideways and vertically. He really didn't think Zhang Fei was a busy man: Not long ago, Zhang Fei had to direct the fetching of pork... Why, the pork was ready?

Abruptly, Zhang Fei turned his head, and the moment he caught his breath, he forced himself to put on a face that was not gentle, gentle, or educated at all, but Zhang Fei decided that it meant friendship.

Liu Bian had a toothache.

Turning his face away, Liu Bian stopped looking at Zhang Fei.

He focused on Liu Bei and Zhang Shiping.

I saw that Liu Bei changed from his usual calmness and became unusually chattering; and Zhang Shiping also agreed with Liu Bei and had a very speculative conversation with Liu Bei... At the end of the conversation, Zhang Shiping suddenly said:
"--forage!"

"What?" Everyone was taken aback for a moment.

Zhang Shiping said: "I sent people to pile up the grain I bought in the courtyard. Brother Xuande, do you want to go and take a look?"

"It's raining just in time!" Liu Bei was very excited, "The army is going to fight, I'm really worried that there won't be enough food and grass..."

"An army?" Zhang Shiping was startled.

It seems that Zhang Shiping, like Su Shuang, has never thought about "the army going to war"?
"It's nothing." Liu Bei thought for a moment and whispered, "We have received information that General Gongsun Zan is besieged. We want to help and help General Gongsun Zan rescue the siege!"

Zhang Shiping's eyes moved slightly.

"Brother Xuande, please come this way!" Zhang Shiping pointed his hand forward, not forgetting to greet Liu Bian, "Your Highness, you can come too."

Liu Bian's eyelids twitched, and he followed the crowd to the designated place, where he saw that it was filled with thick grains and grass.There are so many of them that they can pile up into a big mountain...

Seeing this, Liu Bei was also moved and said with emotion: "With food, we don't have to worry about morale problems. I believe we can solve it!"

"I hope so?" Liu Bian also sighed.

"Your Highness," Liu Bei said, "the army is about to set off, and I would like to ask Your Highness to issue an appointment."

Liu Bian skillfully said: "As you think! I ordered you to lead five thousand troops and rush to Guanzi City in western Liaoning immediately to rescue General Gongsun Zan. I hope you will not disappoint me."

"Here!" Liu Bei cupped his fists and accepted the order.

In this way, Liu Bei was the main general, ordered five thousand soldiers, and took his deputy generals Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Tian Feng and Cao Ang, as well as countless luggage, and set off in a mighty way...
