I am an anchor in the Three Kingdoms

Because of the new inventory of 20 stones of grain and grass, the placement was really exhausting for the eunuch Zhang Liao.

However, even so, a gratified smile appeared on the corner of Zhang Liao's mouth.

He recalled the military order issued in front of Cao Cao a few months ago:

——If you don't ask for the food and grass in the three northern cities, you will never return it!

So ever!

He took root here in Beiping City!

Cao Cao also knew that it was not easy for him, so he arranged for him to be the prefect of Beiping City.

Continue to be in charge of asking for food in the three northern cities.

Now, because the fifth son, Cao Xiong, is able to beg for food, he finally sees the hope of returning home...

Returning to Yecheng means that Zhang Liao can participate in Cao Cao's southward journey to Jingzhou!

Return to the years of galloping horses and fighting on the battlefield!

Thinking of this, Zhang Liao felt refreshed.

Taking a break from his busy schedule, he sat down and took a sip of tea.

Muttering to himself, he praised: "These five young masters are amazing!"

"The Zhao family has 20 shi, the Qian family has 15 shi, the Sun family has 20 shi, the Li family has 15 shi, and the Wu family has [-] shi... Now only the Zhou family, Wu family, and Wang family are left. How about a surprise?"

The civil servant who was in charge of statistical accounts beside him said with a smile:

"Now that the Wu family, who is so shady, has handed over the food, the other three families must be afraid that the fifth son, the plague god, will come to the house, so they should rush to send the food over!"

Zhang Liao nodded. "Finally, the food and grass for going south has been prepared, and this general can go back to Ye City!"

"Report!"

Suddenly heard a report outside the door.

"how?"

Zhang Liao was startled, afraid of any accident.

"The Zhou family... The head of the Zhou family personally transported the grain and grass, and came to the post house, saying that he would volunteer to donate grain..."

Haha!

Zhang Liao laughed loudly.

"Isn't there a big plaque hanging outside his mansion: never ask for grain?

The fifth son hasn't come to the door yet?He is cowardly? "

"Then...the big plaque...the Zhou family burned..."

Hearing what his subordinates said, Zhang Liao was even more delighted.

Hi!

The five young masters haven't even gone to his Zhou mansion yet, the head of the Zhou clan was scared out of his wits this week!

Immediately arranged:

"Today, let's work harder and carry all the food and grass. Tomorrow, I will go ask the fifth son for a reward for you."

……

Beiping City, the residence of the Zheng family!

The head of the Zheng family and the head of the Wang family stood up outside the door.

Looking at the carriages coming out of Zhou's house.

Carriages full of food were being transported to the post house after passing the Zheng family's mansion.

The head of the Zheng family asked:

"Patriarch Zhou, don't you have a sign that says 'never collect food'? The sign is not working either?"

Only heard "Oh!"

The Zhou family let out a long sigh, "Old Wu is in the dark, do you think a plaque can stop the fifth son!"

"Then there's no need to rush to deliver it!" The head of the Wang family also asked.

"Two virtuous younger brothers..." the Zhou family said in a long and earnest way.

"The old man advises you, go and give it away! Send one hundred thousand shi, and hurry up and ask the fifth son, the god of plague, to go away... He wants to come to the door, but it will be more than a hundred thousand shi! I am not afraid of paying the grain, but I am afraid that his fifth son will miss you." !"

After all, the head of the Zhou family hurriedly greeted the convoy and moved forward quickly.

Don't dare to delay for a moment.

The food must be delivered to the post house before the fifth young master arrives.

The head of the royal family was shocked!

He quickly ran to his mansion.

"Dear family, why are you panicking?" Zhou family head asked.

While running, the head of the Wang family turned his head and said:

"The Wang family has to go now...Pay the food...I don't know why, the old man is very flustered..."

The head of the Zheng family was stunned.

Immediately recovered.

"Man... Butler..."

"master?"

"Why are you still standing there in a daze! Hurry up and prepare the food...let them hand it over, don't these five sons just miss our Zheng family?"

housekeeper:"……"

Zheng and Wang have been busy for a while.

Just as bags of grain were being moved out of the mansion and transported to the carriage.

Suddenly, a "Stop!" sounded across the sky!

pass it on!

All the servants of the two families put down the sacks in their hands!

because!

The son of the Zheng family, the son-in-law of the Wang family, the young master who resounded in Beiping City, Zheng Qian is back...

Chapter 296 Gambling Food and Fighting Wen!

"Stop for me!"

Zheng Qian's voice was not loud, but his words were sonorous and powerful.

Zheng's Mansion and Wang's Mansion are door to door!

At this time, all the servants of the two families stopped.

No one can offend the eldest son of the Zheng family and the son-in-law of the Wang family.

"Qian'er, you're back!"

"Is uncle back?"

The head of the Zheng family and the head of the Wang family came over.

Judging from their performance, this Mr. Zheng Qian has a very high status in both governments.

"Fathers, I've heard that we can't pay this food in vain..."

"But... the other six families have all handed over, and even the old Wu's family has been robbed of 20 shi! The method of the fifth son... is not something we can bear..."

"The two fathers, we can't compare with him in terms of yin, but in terms of integrity!

His five sons should not even think about asking for our food so easily.

The two fathers will follow me to meet the fifth son. "

The corner of Zheng Qian's mouth twitched, he greeted a few followers, got on his horse and galloped towards the post house.

Zheng and Wang, the two patriarchs, also hurriedly called for the carriage.

Before leaving, I did not forget to tell, "Stop first...stop first!"

……

post house.

Cao Xiong is eating with Lingju.

Suddenly Zhang Liao rushed to deliver the report.

It turned out that the heads of the Zheng and Wang families came to visit.

Cao Xiong asked:

"He came with food?"

Zhang Liao shook his head, "I didn't bring any food, but I brought someone with me!"

"Who?"

"The eldest son of the Zheng family, the son-in-law of the Wang family! Zheng Qian!"

Zheng Qian?

For some reason, as soon as this name came to Cao Xiong's mind, Cao Xiong thought of the word "earning money"!

I muttered in my heart, "Could it be that this Zheng Qian came to us to make money?"

Zhang Liao looked very solemn.

"Fifth Young Master, don't be careless, this Mr. Zheng Qian has a very good reputation in Beiping City!"

"tell me the story!"

"He is the number one talented scholar in Beiping City. He is known as the collection of classics and history. He knows everything. He knows everything about astronomy and geography."

cut!

Cao Xiong didn't care about these titles.

Before Cao Xiong crossed over, he also claimed that he was a student of language, foreign politics, history, geography, and taking exams, and he knew everything!

Will be afraid of him?

"Didn't you hear that he participated in the Douwen Conference?" Cao Xiong asked.

Speaking of the Dou Wen Conference, Zhang Liao explained: "Because of his marriage to the legitimate daughter of the Wang family, the Dou Wen Conference has been delayed, but this Mr. Zheng's family has threatened that if he participates in the Dou Wen Conference, this 'literary master' How could it be the Fifth Young Master's turn!"

Dare to be dissatisfied with my son!

Cao Xiong licked his lower lip, and thought to himself: "I will marry you?"

Stand up and walk out of the posthouse.

Waiting outside the post house were the patriarchs of Zheng and Wang, and Zheng Qian, the number one talented scholar in Peking.

See the fifth son Cao Xiong.

The two patriarchs saluted first!

Zheng Qian shook his head faintly, as if he was a little disappointed.

After all, at the age of 15 years old, the fifth son Cao Xiong naturally seems a little immature to be called the title of "Literary Master".

Zheng Qian opened his mouth to speak first.

"I heard that the Fifth Young Master won the title of 'Literary Master', but I don't know if the Fifth Young Master cheated to get this title!"
