Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms

Main Text Chapter 63: Unlucky Events During This Period

...

This kind of work-for-relief method completely dispelled the worries of the refugees, and Taishan’s salary standard is settled once a day, and there will be no default, and as many people come to eat, anyway, Chen Xi is already familiar, as long as the money is still there If Tarzan works, he can keep playing.

And precisely in a short period of time, Chen Xi did not lack money and food. The property obtained from the suppression of bandits and training was sold to Xuzhou, and then converted into food and brought over. Xuzhou had a lot of food, and Tao Qian was willing to support Liu Bei, so he was naturally willing to borrow food from Chen Xi. Suppressing bandits, buying grain, Chen Xi had over a million dans of grain in circulation.

It has to be said that Kong Rong's reputation is also as rich as Tao Qian's. With this kind of strong support, Liu Bei's life is much better than Cao Cao's. At least now Taishan County is full of busy scenes, and there is even a kind of False prosperity, at a glance, there is a lot of traffic, and it is prosperous, but Cao Cao is still wandering...

The reason why it is said to be false is because at this time, once Chen Xi withdraws the food and invests in the entire Mount Tai, it will enter a state of depression, and even collapse quickly, but as long as it persists for a few more months until September, after the millet matures, Chen Xi will be considered as withdrawing himself. The food input will not have any problems.

What Chen Xi has to wait for now is these three months. Xia Liang has basically cultivated all the land that can be cultivated in Mount Tai when Chen Xi is proud of his seeds and a small number of cattle. Anyway, Xia Su is only 100 days long. There is a foundation for future plans, so during this period of time, Chen Xi has already prepared, and anyone who dares to cause trouble will die!

In this July of 191, Yuan Shao had just sat on the throne of Jizhou, Cao Cao was about to gain a foothold in Dongjun, Gongsun Zan had not yet taken all of Youzhou, and Liu Yan had just blocked Yizhou and was about to become king and hegemony. The foundation, no one will jump out to provoke, is the last opportunity for development.

In 192 and 193, these two years can be regarded as the last chance for development. Since 194, natural disasters have continued, severe drought, locust plague, plague, and various natural disasters have continued to wreak havoc. In 192 and 193, only the Han people in Chang'an were unlucky. Emperor Xian, there is an earthquake every year, so the Sangong is changed every year...

Taking advantage of this last chance, Chen Xi is already ready to buy grain everywhere, and it is estimated that there will be no such opportunity in the future. If he has enough grain for several years at once, he will not be defeated like Ying Shao, the prefect of Taishan in history. In the end, the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou didn't get any benefit because of the food. Food is king in this era!

Taking advantage of the last two harvest years to save money and food, and taking advantage of natural disasters to swallow all the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou during the subsequent locust plague and drought, this is the most realistic and feasible plan. In short, what we have to do in the past two years is Build walls high and accumulate food widely.

Zang Ba had already surrendered. Zhang Fei saw that there were not many good generals on his side, and Zang Ba had seen it too well, so he didn't say much. As for Hua Xiong calmly accepted Zang Ba as the deputy general, although he relied on The battle defeated Zang Ba, but his family knew their own affairs, so it seemed that he was not Zang Ba's opponent if he was really like commanding troops.

Zang Ba was very happy that Hua Xiong was willing to accept him as a lieutenant general. Although he was seriously injured, he still gritted his teeth and rode on his horse. three people.

Although Hua Xiong said that his brain was not very sensitive, he felt that he could give it a try, so Zang Ba was very grateful and sent several people to send him to Sun Guan's cottage he said.

Sure enough, Zang Ba was also a man of his own. He didn't take this opportunity to fight Hua Xiong again. On the contrary, because of Hua Xiong's loyalty and trust in him, he went all out to surrender the three biggest bandit leaders on Mount Tai. , and Sun Guan bound himself in front of Chen Xi shortly thereafter.

The incident of robbing food was over, as for the dead Zhen's family, Chen Xi didn't bother to care about it, anyway, he and the Zhen's family couldn't get along anymore.

In September, Taishan leveled, Chen Xi finally had a lot of time to squander, and he also had some useful people on hand. Of course, the advisers he had imagined before were basically not recruited. Basically, these guys were not optimistic about Liu Bei and Zhang Zhao. Zhang Hong and Gu Yong, who came from aristocratic families, even ridiculed Liu Bei's subordinates who came to recruit them.

In the end, Chen Xi also put out the idea of ​​continuing to recruit civil servants. Anyway, he can do things like Guangjiliang himself. If there is, at most, he can drink a few more cups of tea a day. If not, he can just drink a few less cups. Tea, not too much influence.

As for the Zhen family who originally planned to invest in Liu Bei, after Yuan Shao took control of Jizhou, they also silently reduced their investment in Mount Tai. Yuan Shao, who has four generations and three princes, has potential.

Chen Xi had expected these things a long time ago, but he didn't take them to heart at all. Courage and adaptability are always necessary for a good businessman. He never thought that because of his arrival, the Zhen family would help him if he arranged things casually. What, these are simply impossible to achieve.

There must be inextricable connections between the Zhen family located in Jizhou and Yuan Shao who occupies Jizhou and is expected to dominate the world. In addition, family management will naturally not suppress the entire family because of one person's personal affection. On the surface, the family seems to be just a wealthy businessman, but Chen Xi knows a very interesting thing, the Zhen family, who inherited an official position with a salary of two thousand, can be just a wealthy businessman?

The Yuan family has four generations and three fathers. In the Three Kingdoms era, when the aristocratic family insisted on being well-matched, could you let your favorite son marry Zhen Mi just because this woman has the attitude of a phoenix? What are you kidding? Even if the family is tens of millions, so what, the whole of Hebei belongs to his Yuan family, and it has become a trend of peeping at the world, what is a rich businessman? How much do you want? What a joke!

Chen Xi has nothing to say about the choice of the Zhen family. Now is not the time to make calculations, and even if Yuan Shao is really dealt with at that time, the Zhen family cannot be wiped out. At most, the family head can be changed, and there is no absolute strength to provoke the family. Hierarchy is an unwise move. Of course, if Liu Bei is really annoyed, there is nothing he can do.

The withdrawal of the Zhen family completely annoyed Liu Bei, who was on fire recently. After all, he failed to recruit famous people and was ridiculed by others. Now that even a wealthy businessman dares to show his face, it is only natural for Liu Bei to be annoyed.

Fortunately, after Chen Xi clarified the stakes, Liu Bei did not completely turn his back on the Zhen family, but seeing Liu Bei suppressing his anger, it would definitely not be easy when the Zhen family fell into Liu Bei's hands, and the anger might spread throughout Hebei The whole family will be unlucky.

As a last resort, Chen Xi had no choice but to say hello to Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping, assigning Jizhou's business to them, telling them to quickly squeeze out the Zhen family's salt industry and horse business outside the Great Wall, and ask the Zhen family to apologize to Liu Bei quickly, otherwise wait This anger has been brewing for three to five years. After Chen Xi took Qingzhou, he trampled Yuan Shao to the ground. Maybe the Hebei aristocratic family would drag the Zhen family into trouble.
