Wei and Jin cooks

Chapter 564 Heartbreak

Zhao Hanzhang came to the door in person, and Xun Xiu and Mi Ce had to give in and let their men prepare to set off.

Of course, Zhao Hanzhang is not someone who just throws it away after use. In addition to his position as the governor of the two counties, Zhao Hanzhang also picked out a bunch of rags from Zhao Erlang. Oh, no, it was a lot of wooden frames selected from the trophies, and he built two oversized trucks. The carriage was padded with more than a dozen layers of straw mats, and two layers of cloth were spread on top. It was absolutely soft and easy to lie down on, and was no different from the Simmons she used before.

On the day of departure, she went to the city gate to see him off in person, and Ji Yuan accompanied her.

The two barely held up their waists and stood in front of the army to accept Zhao Hanzhang's farewell.

Zhao Hanzhang glanced at their waists and asked someone to pull up the carriage. "The two generals' injuries are not healed yet. It is not suitable to ride horses. Let's go back in the carriage and drive slowly on the road."

Zhao Hanzhang tilted his head, and Tinghe came forward with two boxes. Zhao Hanzhang handed one to them each and said with a smile: "This is a gift for the two generals. If you can return to Beijing with your majesty in the future, the two generals will use it when they rise to power." Get on."

Xun Xiu and Mi Ce took it with doubtful expressions. They didn't want to open it and read it on the spot, so they thanked them and put it in their arms.

The two clasped fists and said goodbye. Zhao Hanzhang waved to them and watched them get on the carriage and leave.

After the carriage had walked out for a while, Xun Xiu, who was holding on and did not dare to sit down, got down with the help of his guards. As soon as he got down, he realized the benefits.

He also pressed down with his whole body and felt the softness of the porcelain. He touched a handful of the soft cloth on the top and said, "Your Majesty, you are so generous. How many pieces of cloth have you folded for me?"

After saying that, he put his head around to count from the side, but when he lifted up the hanging sheet, he discovered that the bottom was entirely made of straw mats, and only the top two layers were made of cloth.

Xun Xiu:......

The guard knelt down and sat aside. He picked up the teapot from the foot of the carriage and poured him a glass of water. "The envoy said, cloth is not as soft as straw. Don't think that it is cheap to see it everywhere. It is best to use something practical." ."

Xun Xiu curled his lips. After all, wasn't it because he was stingy and lacked money?

Zhao Hanzhang was out of money. He had heard in the past two days that the quality of food in Zhao's house had plummeted, so much so that Zhao Erlang, who often ran home to eat, rarely went home and stayed in the military camp all day.

It is often said that Uncle Cai, who came to me first, was obsessed with money and was very stingy with property. It seems that Zhao Shijun inherited the characteristics of his grandfather.

"Here's the box, take it and see what the envoy has given you."

The guard immediately took out the box. As soon as the curtain was lowered, Xun Xiu threw the box into the corner.

Xun Xiu placed the pillow stuffed with rice husks on his chin, took the box and opened it directly.

Inside were a few thin pieces of paper, not even a bead on them.

Xun Xiu picked up the paper, threw the box down, and frowned, "What is this?"

As soon as he opened it, he immediately covered it up again. He couldn't help but look at his personal guards and blinked.

The personal guard looked at him with a confused expression, "What's wrong? Is the thing you gave me bad?"

Xun Xiu looked down at the freshly released house deed in his hand and shook his head, "No, it's great. Why is Commander Zhao so generous?"

The deed is new, you can tell because it has a date on it.

The house deed is a large sheet. When unfolded, it contains not only the location, area, and orientation of the house or shop, but also the reason for the income.

It is written above that because Xun Xiu played an important role in defending Luoyang and rescuing the emperor, this house and shop were rewarded to him.

Xun Xiu looked through it and found that there were six house deeds in total, two of which were for houses and four of which were for shops.

There is a house that he occupied before. It is said that it was originally the house of the Cao family, but later fell into the hands of the Jia family. Luoyang fell three years ago. The Jia family followed the emperor and ran out of the capital and never came back. This house fell into the hands of King Donghai.

If this house had an owner, it would probably cost a fortune to buy it.

Xun Xiu was in a complicated mood and folded the house deed carefully and put it away, "I misunderstood you."

The guards nodded repeatedly, envious, "General, if he is promoted to Luoyang in the future, he will be a wealthy person."

Xun Xiu thought so.

Living in Kyoto is not easy, especially when you have a house and a shop. He has already prepared everything before he officially comes to Luoyang.

"It's a pity that Luoyang is no longer Kyoto. I don't know if housing prices will drop too much."

Guard: "How can Yuncheng compare with the majestic Luoyang? When the Huns are driven out of the Central Plains and the world is stable, Luoyang will naturally welcome His Majesty back."

Xun Xiu sneered and said: "The world will be stable unless there is a new master."

He thought thoughtfully, "Follow Your Majesty, this house and shop may not be mine. They were given to me by the envoy. Naturally, she has the final say in Luoyang."

The personal guard didn't understand this, but that didn't stop him from understanding, "It's just like me just following the general, because the salary and food for the humble position are all given by the general."

Xun Xiu gave him an approving look. If the emperor was in charge of Luoyang, he would not be able to get in front of the emperor. There were too many people around him.

Zhao Hanzhang is different.

Xun Xiu didn't dare to say that he was one of the best in front of Zhao Hanzhang, but he could still count him with one slap.

Xun Xiu stared at the box thoughtfully, "This house and shop will be abandoned if left unattended for a long time. We need to find someone to come to Luoyang to run the shop and take care of the house."

"You are looking for someone for your humble job?"

Xun Xiu waved his hand in disgust and said: "These people in the army only know how to shout and fight. Who can settle accounts and do business? When we return to Yingchuan County, we will find someone from the clan to take care of it."

Compared to outsiders, Xun Xiu trusts his tribe members more.

At the same time, Mi Ce had just opened the box and looked at it. He was deeply moved when he saw the house deed in the box. After thinking for a moment, he asked his adviser to get in the car, "The envoy gave me four shops, and now Luoyang is full of waste and needs everything, so it’s a good time to make money.”

The counselor also nodded, "Although the people who came back said they were poor and had all their money taken away by the emperor, the centipede insects are still alive. They must still have wealth, and it is easier for them to obtain wealth than ordinary people. This door There’s business to be done.”

Mi Ce said: "When you wait for Chen County, you will leave the team quietly. Yiyang County is located in the south of Yuzhou and is very stable. I can solve the problems of other refugees and other issues by myself. You can take the people back to Luoyang from Chen County."

The counselor understood clearly, "What kind of goods does the general think will be easy to sell?"

"Cloth, grain and porcelain," he said. "It's a pity that we can't take over the grain business. It's too conspicuous to do this. Please bring in more cloth, porcelain, and colored glaze. Buy more."

The counselor frowned, "I heard that Mr. Fu also built a Liulic Square in Luoyang."

"Although it has been built, it will take some time for the craftsmen to master it. Let's take advantage of this period to make a little profit," Mi Ce said: "We are neither as good at fighting and brave as General Beigong, nor do we have the support of a family like Xun Xiu. Every time He Shijun has to be last in line when he wants food and grass, so he can earn more."

These are all Mi Ce's private wealth. Even if they are earned, they will not be distributed to the soldiers. What does it have to do with food and grass?

However, the counselor nodded in agreement and decided to get off the car and leave when he reached Chen County.

The counselor glanced at the house deed that Mi Ce held in his hand and said with a smile: "Our envoy is very considerate. If you have the opportunity to live in Luoyang in the future, the general will not only have a house to stay, but also shops to support his daily life, so that he will not Losing face in front of colleagues.”

Mitze smiled on his honest face and nodded.

Watching the army go away, Zhao Hanzhang let out a long breath and said, "Finally we are leaving." The two gold-swallowing beasts left, and Zhao Hanzhang's burden was instantly relieved.
