King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 713

Zhuge Liang still shook the feather fan a few times, and said with a smile: "Hehe! Come on! The lord and General Guan Yu were both drenched in the rain. Go back and change your clothes quickly, don't catch cold!"

Liu Bei also stood up with a smile. Hugo, the sky was clear, the sky was particularly bright, and the air was much fresher, so it was not morning, otherwise he would have heard all the birds chirping. Looking at the scene around him, in Thinking about the pouring rain just now, even though Liu Bei was prepared in his heart, he still trembled a little, "This...is this the magic of heaven?" Liu Bei asked in amazement, looking at it, Zhuge Liang's expression on the side was as usual, shaking Wearing a feather fan, his body is meaninglessly filthy. Could it be that the rain can't hit his body? Under such a halo, Liu Bei feels that this 20-year-old fledgling in front of him is even more mysterious and terrifying , but now, this power is for his own use.

Liu Bei helped Guan Yu up with a smile, and said, "Second brother, go home and change your clothes, let's have a drink with the military master today!"

Guan Yu fully agreed, and after changing his clothes, Zhuge Liang was still wearing the same white green shirt. Liu Bei didn't understand that since the day he saw him, Zhuge Liang had always been dressed like this, and Zhuge Liang was the only one like this. Clothes, all of Zhuge Liang's clothes are the same.

Now that there is already a layer of estrangement missing, although Liu Bei's deep scheming is behind this view, the three of them drank together at the banquet, and they were still very harmonious. Moreover, Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang reconciled, which is great for Liu Bei's group benefit.

Guan Yu sighed: "Today's timely rain has solved the urgent needs of all fellow villagers. If this continues, today's harvest will definitely not be less!" But now, in this small town of Xinye, even if Guan Yu has superb skills, the food he handles can’t reach much, and now he is in charge of agricultural administration, so in business talk business, farming talk If you are a farmer, you will naturally talk about this year's farmer's harvest.

Liu Bei nodded, and said, "Yes, it's all thanks to the military adviser. This year, the people in Xinye no longer have to worry about food, and the food and grass hoarded by our army is already enough!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "My lord, Second General, this statement is different, my lord! Liang believes that now is the time for my lord to quickly sell the grain in my hand!"

"Oh?" Liu Bei and Guan Yu were startled at the same time, and Guan Yu asked suspiciously: "Military Master, although a timely rain has made our army have enough food this year, the Lord's stock is still meager. If it is sold, if there are some mistakes, I am afraid…………"

Liu Bei also nodded, and said, "Military Master, please express your opinion!"

Zhuge Liang smiled lightly, and said: "My lord, there is such a timely rain in Xinye now, but there is no such thing in Jingzhou as a whole. This year's severe drought has caused grain prices in Jingzhou to soar, but now the grain in Xinye has slowed down, but the grain prices in other places in Jingzhou The farmer is still hungry, so if the lord sells the grain in his hand, he will definitely be able to buy it at a high price!"

Liu Bei frowned, and said: "But... military commander, how can a heavy rain solve all urgent needs? I'd better keep some food in my hand!"

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "No! My lord! Sell all the grain in your hand!"

Guan Yu immediately said: "Military Master, why is this? There are still two months until the harvest day, why are you so anxious? If there is any mistake in these two months, wouldn't our army have no food to eat?"

Zhuge Liangliang nodded, and said: "My lord and the second general said both are good, but Liang has already figured out that in a few days, Jingzhou will be overcast and rainy. At that time, all the dealers in Jingzhou will have enough to drink, and the price of food will plummet. At that time, my lord You can use the money you get from selling grain at a high price to buy grain and grass, and the lord has just made a fortune, so it is time to stock up on grain and grass, how can Liang let the lord have no food?"

"This..." Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang hesitantly, and then at Guan Yu. Zhuge Liang's proposal is a venture capital investment. If it succeeds, Liu Bei will be able to eat the difference in the price of the food, but Liu Bei will be full. If it doesn't work, then Liu Bei can't help but lose everything, and the army has no food. First, Liu Bei can't recruit troops, and second, what does his army rely on to support him?At that time, if according to what Zhuge Liang said, Liu Bei has food, and if he has food, he has soldiers and horses, it will be a dangerous move...

Zhuge Liang looked at the expressions of Liu Bei and Guan Yu playfully, shook his feather fan, and said nothing. Guan Yu bowed his head and said nothing, meaning of course he listened to his elder brother Liu Bei. It can be seen from his own ability that this Zhuge Liang is definitely a person who does not fight uncertain battles, and he will definitely use heavenly scriptures to change the weather in a few days. Such a benefit is here for me, why not do it?

"Okay!" Liu Bei said excitedly, raised his glass, and said to Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu, "Just follow the advice of the military advisor!"

"Okay!" Guan Yu agreed, and the three of them drank the cup together. However, Liu Bei really missed the point. Although Zhuge Liang had read the heavenly scriptures and could manipulate the weather a little, but asking him to change the weather in Jingzhou was not intended. His life?In fact, it is because Zhuge Liang also obtained another kind of celestial art from the book of heaven, that is, stargazing and stargazing at night. Zhuge Liang has already calculated that after a period of time, it will rain in Jingzhou, and the drought will be relieved. Tell Liu Bei such a strategy......

Liu Bei's Zhuge is just like a fish in water, but Li Lin's Fengchu Pangtong, because Li Lin's family has a big business and a strict hierarchy, so he hasn't said that he has a high position and weight, but this does not mean that he will not hurry up. This phoenix is ​​young, on the contrary, Li Lin has shown that he loves Pang Tong even more, just like people with big backgrounds like Yang Xiu and Lu Yu, he can enter and leave the Marquis of Liao's mansion at will.

"My lord!" Pang Tong, who was in front of Li Lin, cupped his hands to Li Lin.

"Oh!" Li Lin nodded and said with a smile: "Shi Yuan is here, come on, sit down quickly, what's the matter?"

Pang Tong did not go down to the left, but stood still and said, "My lord, XX has something, I don't know whether to say it or not!"

Li Lin waved his hand and said: "Shiyuan, but it's okay to say, there is no barrier between you and me, you can say whatever you want, of course you can't do cursing! After all, this is a public place!"

Pang Tong did not smile because of Li Lin's joke, but with a cautious face, he said slowly: "My lord, my subordinates think that there may be fraud in Liu He's invitation to my lord to go to Chang'an!"

"Oh?" Li Lin raised his eyebrows and immediately knew the purpose of Pang Tong's visit. He looked at Pang Tong suspiciously and said, "The meaning of Shi Yuan is that Liu He wants to harm me?"

Pang Tong nodded slightly, and Li Lin smiled softly: "Hehe, Shi Yuan, you have just come to a certain subordinate, and I don't know the situation that a certain and Liu He only met. Although Liu He and I are secretly unhappy, but in the open In fact, we have always maintained this very close relationship. Although I am on the north bank of the Yellow River, Liu He has more military power, but Liu He should also know that if I did not seize power at that time, I am afraid that he would have died in the hands of Cao Cao long ago. Liao, and my You Liao, will also come and eat and hang up, so if Liu He still has a little self-knowledge, he won't touch me easily. Don't look at him now that he has a lot of territory, but it's still the same Liu He And, I still can't help...Ah! I still can't win the nomination round with me!"

Pang Tong smacked his lips, and said slowly: "My lord, I still feel that something is wrong. You see, if Liu He wanted to invite the lord to recover the capital, and it was in Liu He's hands, why didn't Liu He leave Luoyang? And sent the lord to Chang'an, which is far away from the land under the lord's rule, and the lord will pass through the land under Liu He's rule all the way, in case Liu He wants to harm the lord halfway, I'm afraid..."

Before Pang Tong finished speaking, Li Lin waved his hand and said: "Hey! Shi Yuan's worries are definitely right, but if this is someone, I, Li Yuanjie, must be cautious, but for this Liu He, hehe, Shi Yuan, The battle strength of Liu and Zhao's army is no match for Liu Biao's Jingzhou soldiers. If it weren't for the chaos of Cao's army, how could Liu He get Luoyang Chang'an, the land under Cao Cao? Hey, there are a thousand men and horses such as Zilong and Fang Fang, along the way, there must be nothing wrong, and although Liu He has some strength now, as long as I come under his rule, certain soldiers and horses will watch He, if he touches me, if he can't beat me, he will fight to the death!"

"This..." Pang Tong was a little speechless. My lord is such a man of temperament. You are the Marquis of Liao who holds half of the country in your hands. If you go to fight to the death and the net is broken, don't you really have no country in this world in your eyes?Maybe it is because the lord in front of me is not in this country, that he is really qualified to sit in this country......

Seeing Pang Tong's expression, Li Lin knew what Pang Tong was thinking, so he quickly waved his hand and said, "Hey, that... I mean, don't think about it, Shi Yuan, I know Liu and that person too well. Lin is very grateful for Shi Yuan's concern about X, but X went to Liu He's land not once or twice. The first few times he even brought Fang Fang and other 300 guard battalions. Don't worry, nothing will happen!"

Pang Tong sighed softly in his heart. His lord is good, but he is too impulsive. Although Liu He is the lord of Li Lin in name, after all, the current situation, the two have become the most likely to agree with the princes of the world. , It’s too late to kill each other, and it’s said that Liu He even came to show your friendship to you, he must have no good intentions...
