Lu's relatives

Chapter 203 Why do you want to slow down what you want to do?
In the fourth year of Chuping in the Han Dynasty, May.It's just entered summer, and the weather is already abnormally hot like in previous years.In Qingzhou, large and small rivers have stopped flowing one after another, and the river channels have faint signs of cracks. The shallow wells with a slightly lower water level have also dried up. Ringworm.

"The 400-year-old Han Dynasty, why did it come to this!" Although he knew that this year's severe drought would consume the last vitality of the once glorious Han Dynasty and officially usher in the prelude to a chaotic world where all heroes will rise together. Qingzhou will also take advantage of the trend to rise and usher in the opportunity to achieve great things, but at this moment, seeing this scene of devastation, Qin Xu, who is a descendant, watched helplessly as the few numbers in the history books turned into unbearable figures in front of him. In reality, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Mr. Qin, please don't be sad. Our old Xu didn't study much, but we also know the truth that if you are rich, you can benefit the world, and if you are poor, you can be alone. We don't know how other states will deal with it. But although Qingzhou has suffered serious disasters this time, we can Master Lai and Master Qin are thinking about the livelihood of the people, and with the early arrangements, at least it is much better than the tragic situation of starving and changing children and eating during the previous catastrophes." The old man who had been following Qin Xu all the time Xu and Sima Mao exchanged glances, nodded secretly, and said.This time, Qin Xu got Lv Bu's acquiescence, and borrowed from Guo Jia's office, Lao Xu, Sima Mao, Kong Erlianzi and other acquaintances in the camp commanded [-] elite soldiers as guards, and in order not to make Tao Qian suspicious. The other battalion soldiers were not moved, but the [-] private soldiers of the Qin family led by Mi Zhen as a dowry with Dianwei. In the name of guarding the food and roads of the Mi family, Mi Fang, the eldest son of the Mi family, was headed by Mi Fang, economically in the southern country, and went to Xuzhou to "act ".

"Yes, Master Qin, this world has been like this since the reign of Guanghe (Emperor Ling 178-184). There have been many natural disasters, and they have never stopped. After a few times, you get used to it. There is really nothing to see. But you Don't worry, even if there is a drought in Qingzhou for a few years, relying on my Mi family's connections, the lord will not be short of food!" It was Qingzhou merchant Cao Mifang who spoke so cautiously.Speaking of which, Mi Fang has been very embarrassing recently, and she admires her elder brother's act of taking refuge in Lv Bu before he had a firm foothold.Seeing that Lv Bu flattened the entire Qingzhou, and the reciprocal almost handed over the economic lifeline of the entire Qingzhou to the Mi family, and married Lv Bu's son-in-law, Qin Zhubu, who had a high prestige in the army. Seeing that Zang Hong, the actual controller of Qingzhou government affairs who was born in a merchant's family, looked much better in color, he was even willing to nod at himself when they met, let alone some petty officials like porters and tax collectors. It's a big face, thinking back then it was the eldest brother Mi Zhu who was the Xuzhou Biejia, just because he was born in a merchant, Mi Fang also had to show some face to some high-ranking officials in Xuzhou and small tax collectors.Moreover, when Qin Xu went out on business this time, he did not bring so many soldiers with him, but he chose to bring three thousand servants as his sister's dowry, but Lu Bu had no intention of objecting. What an obvious "signal" this is! .

"Yeah, it's nothing to see! But it was also because of the severe drought that the Yellow Turban thieves took advantage of the chaos, and the trouble hasn't stopped for more than ten years!" Qin Xu was sitting on the horse hurting himself, when he suddenly heard My own "Second Uncle" who feels quite good about himself and has been flattering and flattering all the way, said this lightly, although he also knows that Mi Fang is flattering with good intentions, and these days, human life is really cheap, and it has even become the norm , but still couldn't help but sarcastically said.

"Yes, yes! What Master Qin said is true!" Seeing Qin Xu saying this, Mi Fang hurriedly accompanied Xin Xin and said again and again.Mi Fang has heard of the methods of this Master Qin in front of her, and her years of business experience have also made Mi Fang's mind quite active. Although Qin Xu is her own sister-in-law, she is also Lu Bu's son-in-law. With the face of a second uncle, Mi Fang was not so stupid as to think that she could surpass Qingzhou Mu Lu Bu.Seeing that Lu Bu let Qin Xu lead these many soldiers with such peace of mind, and also dispatched elite soldiers and generals to protect him, it can be seen that Qin Xu has a strong position in Lu Bu's heart.Mi Fang thought about it too, not to mention just a few words of sarcasm that don't hurt or itch right now, even if she swears, she still seems close, otherwise why wouldn't Qin Xu be satirizing others?

"Ahem, brother Zifang, please forgive me. Just now, Xu touched the scene and fell in love with him. He lost his mind and made a rash statement!" After all, he was also my second uncle, who said unintentional words, and he was much older than himself. In Mi Zhen's face, it is more or less necessary to give some face in front of others. Qin Xu saw Mi Fang's cautious and flattering appearance, and did not want to leave a bad impression on his own people. After all, Qingzhou's food and coins depend on the Mi family , said with a slightly apologetic arched hand.

"Zhongming is too polite, a family, how can there be so much attention! Eldest brother also often scolds me, he is used to it, Zhongming don't need to take it to heart!" Some awkward words, after listening to Qin Xu's obviously much closer words, the corners of his mouth were almost grinning to the ears, the trace of suppressed unhappiness in his heart had long since dissipated, and he even said his embarrassing things smoothly.

"Then thank you, brother Zifang, for your forgiveness!" Qin Xu nodded with a smile, paused for a while, and said, "Xu Chang listened to the words of the lord, brother Zifang protects the way of food that maintains the lifeline of Qingzhou, and travels between Qingzhou and Xu." , the responsibility is important, the contribution is really great, and he is his own, comparable to Xiao He of the Han Dynasty. Brother Zi Fang is quite familiar with Jinan and Langya, which are the only way for business, right?"

"What Zhongming said is too much, too much!" Mi Fang originally planned to use this excuse to take this opportunity to deepen her relationship with Qin Xu even though she didn't know what it was. Now listening to Qin Xu's words is even more beneficial to Mi Fang, her snot bubbles are about to come out, after listening to Qin Xu's question, she said without thinking: "If Zhongming asks about other places, Mi may not know, but This Jinan and Langya two places, Mi Mou will go there almost every month, so he is very familiar with it, if he wants to find a place, Zhong Ming can just talk about it."

"Oh? If brother Zifang is so sure, that would be really great. I'll thank Xu in advance!" Qin Xu got the news from the old fox Jia Xu, and Kan Xuan is likely to steal the news from Pengcheng and Donghai. The grain, grass, and military resources of the two places were stored in a certain place in Langya County, which was adjacent to the two places, where the Yellow Turbans in Xuzhou did not dare to touch them because of Lu Bu's power. It is a place where Langya County is close to Jinan State in Qingzhou and Taishan County in Yanzhou.When Qin Xu asked Jia Xu how he got the news, the old fox was very eloquent. Qin Xu was horrified at the huge amount of the collection, so he didn't continue to ask.But although there is a rough range now, the range seems too big, and there are too many regions that meet these conditions. After several days of further screening, a few places were barely locked, but it was only a marching map. It's just a few small dots, but after hearing Mi Fang's eloquent words this time, Qin Xu suddenly became a little more confident.

"Master Qin, Commander Dian and Uncle Kong Dubo who went to Jinan City are back, and General Cheng Lian is also here." Just as Qin Xu was thinking about how to ask Mi Fang, who didn't know the truth, about these places Sima Maolai reported the specific situation.Qin Xu's plan this time is to stay in Jinan first and wait and see, and not easily enter Xuzhou when the target is uncertain, so as not to misunderstand Tao Qian, who has become quite frightened because of Cao Cao's threat to slaughter Xuzhou last time, especially It was when this catastrophe came that unnecessary troubles were caused out of thin air.The reason why they didn't directly enter Jinan City, but sent Dian Wei and Kong Er fool first to inform Cheng Lian, the commander of the Flying Cavalry camp stationed there, was because of the sequelae of Qin Xu's original nickname.After all, the people in charge of the Jinan Kingdom, from Sima to Gongcao, probably don't have a good impression of Qin Xu.

"Brother Zhongming! Oh, I really want to die and we're old!" Before anyone could see clearly, the rough voice arrived first, and Sanqi came galloping not far away, leaving Dian Wei and Kong Er stupid far away. In the back, the one who came first was Cheng Lian, who stayed here to train the Yellow Turban army after the battle with Cao Cao, and was "tricked" by Qin Xu to lead the horse several times.

"Old Cheng! It looks like you are living a comfortable life these days, but your belly is getting bigger and bigger! How is it, is it a good feeling to be the commander of the first army?" Qin Xu was about to get off the horse and confront himself several times before. Betting, but losing every time, he can only bow his head to lead the horse and kick himself. Relatively speaking, the general who has the best relationship with him in the Lu Bu army bows his hands as a gift, but he is suddenly hugged by Cheng Lian who rushed over. He pushed away the obviously excited, straight man who was a bit over the top, taller than Qin Xu by nearly two ends, and said jokingly.

"Ah! Brother Zhongming, you have hurt my brother!" Unexpectedly, Qin Xu's joke made this strong man who had fought with Lu Bu for many years look lonely, and he sighed. Qin Xu vomited bitterness when he asked the question, and said: "When I was at the lord's side before, although the number of soldiers I led was no more than a thousand at most, there were still battles to fight anyway. But since we were stationed in Jinan Kingdom, even though we are old enough to say There are more than a few times more brothers, but they are reduced to listening to the news that the lord and your lord Qin are constantly winning battles. There was a chaos in the North Sea before, and Linzi was short of troops. I thought the lord would transfer us to go with him , Who would have thought that you, Lord Qin, would show your might and force 20 Yellow Turban soldiers to surrender before the battle, and let us be happy for nothing; this was not the case when there was chaos in Xuzhou before. What is the use of pawns? This time, what should be done this time, as you said, it should be our turn, right? But I don’t want these people to look fierce, but they are confused with the silk cloth It's like, being beaten up by the lord, and we were made to wait for a few days in vain, you say, brother, I don't blame you, who do you blame?"

"Old Cheng, this is because you are not authentic! Since you came to Qingzhou, you are the first one under the lord's command to lead the army to guard the outside alone. The lord is relieved to leave such an important place in Jinan to you, and you are still here. What are you complaining about?" Qin Xu couldn't help but listen to Wan Lian's nagging like complaining about bitterness. It seems that leading the army alone is really training people. He has consumed a straightforward nine-foot strong man into a chatterbox. Qin Xu can only smile wryly. That's all, I re-introduced Dian Wei and Mi Fang, who are already the deputy commanders of the personal guard battalion, to Cheng Lian. Seeing that Cheng Lian and Dian Wei and Mi Fang were still uninterested after seeing the ceremony, Qin Xu smiled wryly and shook his head. He whispered to Cheng Lian: "Flying cavalry camp was not involved in many things before. Isn't it because the lord trusts you, so you can rest assured that Jinan is important to your lord? Besides, don't you just want to have a good time? It's very easy, do you think Qin brought these many people here just to catch up with you? Don't need to hide it from you, among the 300 people brought by Qin, except for the 3000 brothers who are familiar with the camp , the remaining [-] people are actually just some strong-looking servants. They have been brought out this time to practice and experience. Compared with the previous [-] Yellow Turban soldiers who surrendered, their combat power is much worse. Old Cheng, you lead troops to help Qin Mou!"

"Hey! Brother Zhongming, why didn't you say it sooner! Look at this incident, you just let me listen to our old-fashioned complaints for no reason! I didn't say anything, as long as you, Mr. Qin, say a word, the water will flow into the water, and the flames will burn. Go! Even if the order is true, if we are old enough to say a word, please behead someone's head!" Cheng Lian did not expect Qin Xu to say this, his face was overjoyed, and he immediately patted his chest and made a vow Said.

　Thanks to the big beauty "Youye Xuehexiang" for daily rewards!Wei Shang bows and thanks!
