Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 94

It is estimated that the matter of practicing the knife with the method of pouring steel will have to be postponed. Judging from the amount of iron purchased by Ruo Rong, the cost of his own expenses is very reluctant, which is not enough to support Lin Mo to carry out the experiment.

Moreover, the funds can not hold on.

But after Ruo Rong pushes Liuli to those aristocratic families, he should be able to recover a lot of money, and the economic pressure will be greatly reduced.

"Here, here it is for you."

On the way back, Lin Mo took out a piece of colored glaze from his arms, which looked like a villain, the size of a palm, not too delicate.

"Didn't you break it all up?" Lu Lingqi took it in surprise, and stroked it in the palm of her hand. It was obvious that she really liked it.

"Just now when I was idle and bored, I used clay to pour the mold, and it can be regarded as my hand, with a lot of thought." Small objects are the easiest to grasp a woman's heart.

Sure enough, Lu Lingqi blushed and said in a low voice, "Thank you."

If she is not deeply involved in the world, you take her to see the prosperity of the world; if her heart is already vicissitudes, take her to ride the merry-go-round.

For a girl like Lu Lingqi who grew up on horseback, her face always said that strangers should not get close to her. It is estimated that no man would dare to give her a gift.

But this kind of woman will definitely be a shark in the pond in the future, and the survival rate of other small fish is a bit low.

"Just now I estimated that the monthly salary of those craftsmen, the workshop and the transportation cost of the sea sand will not cost more than three thousand gold."

Lu Lingqi tilted her head to look at Lin Mo, and said curiously: "I suspected that he was greedy for the sugar business before, but now that the business is so big, I will give him full authority, don't worry."

Lin Mo smiled knowingly, and shook his head, "You are not deaf or blind, and you are not worthy of being in charge. You don't understand, if you pass pork, there will always be oil. Who do you ask to do this kind of thing to ensure that you are not greedy for ink."

Lu Lingqi frowned noncommittally, and then said: "Then why him?"

Lin Mo couldn't help but glanced back, confirming that Ruo Rong hadn't followed, he reassuredly said, "Because he is the weakest and has the worst reputation among the powerful families in Xuzhou."

Seeing that Lu Lingqi was still confused, Lin Mo continued: "The glass you are holding in your hand is called Liuli, as you have seen, it can be made with a pile of sea sand, but Ruo Rong will then declare that it is Bringing back from overseas fairy mountains, paper cannot contain fire, and one day what happened in Liulichang will be known to the world."

"I understand!"

Lu Lingqi looked at me with an expression of enlightenment, nodded and said: "When the time comes, any problems will come to him, and we will definitely not be involved, right?"

"That's a little bit."

Lin Mo nodded, "One more thing, business has ledgers, as long as he doesn't go too far, let him go. It's also good for us if he is greedy. In the future, if he keeps being so obedient, these will be considered benefits.

But if one day, he wants to take advantage of these momentum, his greedy money will become a knife to kill him. "

At this moment, Lu Lingqi understood completely.

She always thought that it was because Ruo Rong liked flattery that she won Lin Mo's heart. It turned out that there were so many ways here.

According to this view, there is indeed no one in Xuzhou who is more suitable than Ruo Rong, who can give him sweets and at the same time be able to end it at any time, everything is under control.

She stroked the little glass doll in her hand, and felt for the first time that Lin Mo's city mansion was a little palpitating.

"Accompany me to Xiaoguan tomorrow, and then to Peicheng by the way."

"What for?" Lu Lingqi put the little glass doll into her arms.

"I have thought about it seriously. Xuzhou is our foundation. Cao Cao will definitely not start from Huainan if he wants to attack. Xiaoguan is the throat of Cao Jun's food and grass, and Peicheng is the gateway of Xuzhou. The battle should start in these places. I need to go. Familiarize yourself with the terrain."

Lu Lingqi looked at Lin Mo with a serious face, and couldn't help laughing.

"why are you laughing?"

"It's nothing, I'll go with you."

Perhaps it was at this moment that Lu Lingqi finally understood why Lu Bu said that Lin Mo could only be the son-in-law of the Lu family, not a counselor.

Which strategist can work so hard, it can be said to be non-stop, non-stop.

She felt that, following Lin Mo's side, there seemed to be endless things to do.

It turns out that even if you don't go to the battlefield or become a ranger, you can be so fulfilling.

In Guangling City, a large banquet is being held to welcome Zhang Xiu.

Lu Bu, who was seated at the main seat, raised his wine glass and looked at Zhang Xiu, who was the first on the left, wearing armor, and said with a smile, "Ziwen, it's been three or four years since we left Chang'an. It's God's pity."

"It's been four years. I'm ashamed to say that after leaving Chang'an, Marquis Wen is now making great achievements, but I..." Zhang Xiu shook his head bitterly, then raised his wine glass and respected each other across the air, "From now on, I will rely on Wen Hou sheltered!"

After drinking a cup, Lu Bu smiled and said, "They are all my brothers, so there is no need to see outsiders."

Lu Bu was smiling very happily, and his words and deeds were considered to be extra respectful to Zhang Xiu. At least compared to Cao Cao letting him lead the horse and fall, he was regarded as a person.

But Zhang Xiu always seemed to be unable to let go of her heart.

He came to vote for Lu Bu sincerely. Facing someone who was an equal in the past, and was even suppressed by the Xiliang army, now that he is sitting in a high position and has become his immediate boss, he still can't calm down for a while.

In fact, this is human nature, not just him. Before Lin Mo left, he repeatedly asked Lu Bu to treat Zhang Xiu with the attitude of a virtuous corporal, but if he really sat in a different position, he would feel a sense of elation in his heart.

Today can be regarded as fulfilling the words of ambition when I left Chang'an back then, and I have come out on top.

"Wenhe, you and I are old friends. This glass of wine is a toast to the past and the future." Lu Bu tried his best to be kind and amiable.

"Thank you Marquis Wen for disregarding the past, and I will do my best in the future." Like Gao Shun, Jia Xu doesn't like to smile very much, and he keeps looking at Lu Bu from the corner of his eyes.

Well, it seems that it is indeed different from the past, Jia Xu thought in his heart.

Then Cheng Lian, Chen Deng, and Liu Ye toasted the two of them one after another, and the atmosphere began to heat up.

Seeing the people drinking together, Lu Bu thought, if one day he could greet all the people who looked down on him in the past, it would be a great feeling.

While drinking happily, a scout ran in and knelt in the hall on one knee, "Marquis Wen, Jiujiang General Zhang has an urgent report within three hundred miles!"

"Bring it!" Sanbaili hurried, Lu Bu immediately put down his wine glass, and everyone in the hall stopped making noise, and stretched their necks to know what happened.

After opening the bamboo slips, there was still a piece of silk cloth inside, but Lu Bu still chose to read the content of the urgent report first.

The content of the letter made Lu Bu heave a sigh of relief. It turned out that Liu Bei was asking for help. This Zhang Wenyuan, does it take three hundred miles to rush for something serious?

After continuing to read, it turned out that the scouts detected that Cao Cao led the army out of Xuchang, and they were heading in the direction of Anfeng.

Looking at it this way, it is worth reporting urgently, Lu Bu put down the bamboo slips together, and picked up the silk cloth.

It was the blood edict of the Son of Heaven, summoning all the princes and kings of the world, with the names of Liu Bei, Liu Biao, Yuan Shao and even Gongsun Zan on it, and of course the left general Lu Bu.

Lu Bu sneered in his heart, just relying on this thing to make me send troops?joke.

"Marquis Wen, what's the matter?" Chen Deng couldn't help asking.

"Liu Bei led the army in the name of destroying Yuan Shu, and then escaped from Cao Cao and fled to Anfeng. Now Cao Cao is leading an army of [-] to encircle and suppress, Liu Bei sent a letter for help."

After Lu Bu finished speaking, Chen Deng's eyes still stayed on the silk cloth.

"Oh, this is the Blood Edict of the Son of Heaven, summoning the princes of the world to be King Qin, and it also bears my name."

Jia Xu, who was sitting quietly under Zhang Xiu, was expressionless, but his heart was stirred up. What's going on, doesn't he know what this blood edict is, and he can still be so calm.

"Wen Hou, the Cao thief is ambitious, and he will certainly not be willing to just chase and kill Liu Bei. This may be a false way to attack Guo, and his intention is in Jiujiang. Please Wen Hou send troops, and I am willing to be the vanguard!" Hearing that Cao Cao is coming Zhang Xiu, who was getting drunk, turned grim.

Lu Bu just nodded with a smile, then looked at Chen Deng and Liu Ye.

Jia Xu, who was ignored, was calm in his heart. His character has always been that if you ask, I may not necessarily answer, let alone if you don't ask.

"Marquis Wen, I think what General Zhang said is reasonable, and we should lead our troops back to help. Now we will have a big battle with Cao Jun. Although Liu Bei has few soldiers, he has a strong general to close Zhang. If it can be used by me, there will be more battles with Cao Jun. What a chance."

Chen Deng stood up and bowed: "No matter how bad it is, let them consume Cao's army. If they ignore it, I'm afraid it will encourage Cao Cao's arrogance, and maybe he will have a dissatisfaction with Jiujiang for no reason."

Then came Liu Ye, "Marquis Wen has always quelled chaos in the name of helping the Han Dynasty. Now that the Son of Heaven has the Blood Edict in his hand, we must not ignore it. Moreover, with this edict, Cao Cao will not be able to restrain himself by issuing edicts in the name of the Son of Heaven in the future." It's time to warm up."

Jia Xu looked up at Liu Ye, he seemed to be a knowledgeable person, this blood edict was a good thing, much better than the jade seal Yuan Shu was holding.

So far, Zhang Xiu, Chen Deng, and Liu Ye have all expressed their opinions, and they are completely unified, that is, to save Liu Bei.

Lu Bu frowned and said nothing, picked up the wine glass and took a sip slowly.

Zhang Xiu wanted to fight Cao Cao because of personal grievances. Liu Ye is a descendant of the Empress of Han, and his support is normal. Chen Deng, are you considering the interests of the Chen family?
Lu Bu couldn't make up his mind for a while.

The main reason is that he didn't want to go head-to-head with Cao Cao for a Liu Bei. It costs money to go to war, so what can he get in the end?

What's more, he came prepared, and it was too much of a disadvantage for him to rush into the battle.

"Marquis Wen, time doesn't wait for me." Liu Ye reminded again.

Lu Bu pressed his hand, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "But at this time, Boping returned to Pengcheng with the trapped camp, and Cao Cao is already on the way to march. If I call him, I'm afraid there will be too little time. .”

No one can tell that this is an excuse.

It seems that Lu Bu is still the same Lu Bu back then. It's strange. How did he win such a large territory? Is it really all because of his son-in-law behind him?

Then he can forget it, and can assist such a hesitant person to achieve success.

Jia Xu stroked her beard and cursed in her heart.

He didn't feel embarrassed to be stared at Lu Bu with strange eyes, but felt a little distressed.

It seems that I still can't let Yunwen leave me. It would be great if he was here, and he will definitely be able to advise me.

In fact, even today, Lu Bu himself is very clear that sometimes what these people say is not unreasonable, but some things are hard to change after they become habits.

For example, if Lin Mo was present today and said he needed rescue, he would have sent his troops west without hesitation.

"Marquis Wen, it will take at least [-] days for the [-] troops to arrive from Xuchang to Anfeng. It will take three to four days for the scouts to deliver the news back to Jiujiang, and two days for the three hundred miles to rush here. It is said that Cao Cao will be able to reach Anfeng in seven days at most."

Liu Ye sighed, "It's too late to go back to Pengcheng to transfer troops."

The implication this time is already obvious, when you go back to Pengcheng to discuss with your son-in-law and the result is reached, the day lily will be cold.

Zhang Xiu was anxious in his eyes, but he also knew that he probably wouldn't listen to what he said, so he could only helplessly look at Jia Xu, suggesting that he should speak.

After pondering for a while, Jia Xu finally chose to stand up, cupped his hands and said, "Marquis Wen, if Anfeng falls into Cao Cao's hands, Cao Cao will be able to go out three ways when he fights with Marquis Wen in the future."

As soon as Jia Xu opened his mouth, he immediately attracted Lu Bu's attention. He looked suspicious: "Sanlu?"

"The first route is to look at Jiujiang from Anfeng; the second route is from Liang State to attack Pei State; the third route is to enter Xiaoguan from Qiao County. Although Marquis Wen is invincible in the world, but if the three armies are launched together, I am afraid that they will fall into a trap. It's a difficult situation."

Jia Xu knows too well what to say to someone. He doesn't talk to Lu Bu about the righteousness of the world, and he doesn't talk to him about using Liu Bei to counter Cao Cao.

The far-sighted analysis not only made Lu Bu realize the seriousness of the problem, but even Chen Deng and Liu Ye couldn't help but take a second look at him.

This person is so talented, why did he let Zhang Xiu beat Cao Cao like this.

Snapped!
Lu Bu, who had fully figured it out, stood up suddenly and said angrily, "I will never let Cao Cao succeed!"

Then he looked at Cheng Lian, "Take the cavalry in the city, and the army will rush to Jiujiang after dawn tomorrow!"

"Here!"

After Cheng Lian left, Lu Bu looked around at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, go back quickly and get ready, and follow Cheng Lian to Jiujiang early tomorrow morning."

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, several meanings, we are going to Jiujiang, won't you go?

Chen Deng made a bow and said, "Marquis Wen, is there any other important business that delays the trip?"

Lu Bu didn't hide anything, and said straight to the point: "Go back to Pengcheng."

Without waiting for a few people to question, he said directly: "Don't worry, I have a red rabbit horse, and I can travel thousands of miles a day. Maybe I will reach Jiujiang one step earlier than you."

Now that we've talked about this, it's inconvenient for everyone to say more, but everyone knows clearly in their hearts that if Lu Bu returns to Pengcheng, Lin Mo's opinion is opposed, and there is a high probability that their trip will be in vain.

However, the few of them were quite relieved about this. Chen Deng and Liu Ye felt that with Lin Mo's personality, they would definitely not just sit idly by and find him just to make their minds feel at ease.

Jia Xu also knew in his heart that the person who can push Lu Bu to achieve what he is today will not know the consequences of letting Cao Cao mess around.

What happened today made him more interested in Lin Mo.

interesting
Taking this opportunity, I just happened to see if this little friend is not worthy of his reputation.
