Chapter 211 Liu Pan
The richest one is still the Governor-General of Jingzhou, Zhang Wu.

All the book sales profits of all the aristocratic families in Jingzhou have to hand over [-]% to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, so Zhang Wu can now be regarded as one of the most local tyrants in the world.Of course, this is in terms of cash. If you want to calculate it in terms of real estate, Boss Cao is not bad.

If you have money, you have to spend it, otherwise what is the point of earning so much money?But Zhang Wu's purpose of spending money is different from that of ordinary people. He wants to improve his own strength by spending money.

Zhang Wu began to figure out how to spend money and where to spend it.

Liu Pan, the former prefect of Changsha, was appointed as General Zhenwei. After handing over to Kuai Qi, who succeeded him, he packed up his things and came to Xiangyang to report to the General's Mansion in Zhennan.

Zhang Wu personally met Liu Pan and affirmed his achievements in resisting the invasion of Jiangdong and maintaining local stability during his tenure in Changsha. Considering that the war with Cao Cao and Sun Quan will be more intense in the future, he was transferred to Changsha. Xiangyang was appointed as a general.

Although Liu Pan's own strength is not very strong, much worse than a super-class general like Huang Zhong, but he has been able to confront Jiangdong's super-class general Tai Shici for so many years, which shows that he is at least a second-rate general, and he must be a second-rate general. , about the same level as Fu Shen.

To be honest, Liu Pan actually wanted to come to Xiangyang and participate in the battle with Cao Cao and Sun Quan.As a military general, you will feel very lonely if you don't fight for a long time. Which military general doesn't want to be rewarded for his meritorious service.Liu Pan had often fought with the Yuzhang garrison in Jiangdong a few years ago, and he usually took the initiative to provoke Jiangdong, making Yuzhang County's chickens and dogs restless.

Later, Sun Ce sent Taishi Ci to deal with Liu Pan, and Liu Pan became more honest. There was nothing he could do if he couldn't defeat him!

After Sun Ce's death, Sun Quan took over, and he didn't really like to use the team left by his brother.Sun Quan saw that Tai Shici had a good effect on Liu Pan in the south, so he let Tai Shici stay in the south and entrusted him with the important tasks of managing the south.Although it can be regarded as reused, it is too far away from the center of power, and some important things cannot be attended.

Of course, a super-class general like Tai Shici yearns to lead his troops to fight on the battlefield and compete with the heroes of the world, but there is no chance of staying in the rear, and since he came to the south, even Liu Pan has not come. Urgent and uncomfortable at home.

In the original book, Sun Quan inherited Sun Ce's foundation in 200, while Tai Shici died in depression in 206. He was only 40 years old when he died, which is regarded as an untimely death.

When Tai Shici was about to die, he said: "Since a man was born in troubled times, he should carry a three-foot sword to stand invincible. Now that my ambition has not been realized, why do I have to die!" The words revealed a strong unwillingness.

Zhang Wu hosted a banquet in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to welcome Liu Pan, and Chen Sun, Pang Tong, Xu Shu, Huang Zhong, Wen Pin, Ding Feng, Fu Xun and other important military figures in Xiangyang were all accompanied.

Liu Pan and Huang Zhong are old acquaintances, and have always admired Huang Zhong very much. Now that Huang Zhong has become the second-ranked general in the Jingzhou military, Liu Pan is also very happy for him.

Zhang Wu granted Liu Pan the official title of General Zhenwei. In terms of position, Liu Pan was on the same level as Gan Ning, Huang Zhong, Wenpin, Ding Feng and other generals. This also shows that Zhang Wu treated Liu Pan very preferentially.

Liu Pan also had a mansion in Xiangyang, which had been cleaned and tidied up before Liu Pan came.

After a night's rest, Liu Pan went to the State Shepherd's Mansion to see Liu Qi.

"At the end of the day, I will pay my respects to Master Zhou Mu." Liu Pan saluted.

"Brother Pan, it's good that you're here. I've worked hard in Changsha for so many years, and this time I'm back in Xiangyang to have a good rest. Come, sit down first, let's chat while drinking." Liu Qi said happily, Liu Pan is his cousin , is one of his few relatives at present.

"Lord Xiezhou Mu." Liu Pan saluted again and sat down.

"Brother Pan, why are we being polite between brothers? It's a family reunion now, and there are no outsiders present, so let's call each other brother! Wang Wei, pour wine!"

The two brothers hadn't seen each other for a long time, chatting while drinking.When talking about Liu Biao being killed by the Cai family, the two brothers cried bitterly; when talking about the crimes of the Cai family being exposed by Zhang Wu and destroying the Cai family, the two brothers were very happy; when talking about Zhang Wu defeating Cao Cao and Sun Quan, the brothers Both are very excited.

Unknowingly, he drank a little too much. Liu Qi asked Wang Wei to bring him more wine. Wang Wei said in embarrassment: "Master Zhou Mu, you have drunk enough. You are not in good health. The governor asked me to I’m advising you!”

"Hey~ Brother Pan and I haven't seen each other for a long time. I'm very happy to be reunited today. It's okay to drink a little more. Don't worry, the governor will not blame you. Go, go! Remember, bring good wine!"

Wang Wei had to go out to find wine.

Liu Pan asked while Wang Wei was out: "Brother, I have something to say, I don't know if I should ask it or not!"

"What can't be asked between us brothers, but it's okay to say."

"Okay, since that's the case, I'll just say it straight. My brother is now the shepherd of Jingzhou, but the government orders and military orders are all from the governor's mansion. I also heard in Changsha that the people of Jingzhou all respect the governor's goodness. I'm afraid that in the long run, the people of Jingzhou will only Knowing that there is a great governor but not a state shepherd."

Although Liu Qi drank a little too much, he was not drunk yet, let alone confused. Of course he knew what Liu Pan meant, so he smiled and said: "Brother Pan, the governor is talented in literature and military strategy. He can govern both the people and the army." , now the people in Jingzhou can live and work in peace and contentment, the families work together, and can resist the invasion of Cao Cao and Sun Quan externally. Zhang Lu, Liu Zhang and their like do not dare to invade easily. This is all the result of the governor. The people praise and support the governor. It's also normal."

Liu Pan thought it was inconvenient for Liu Qi to say something, so he said again: "I have received great kindness from my uncle, and I can't repay it. Now that I come to Xiangyang, I will take some military power. If my brother is useful to me, I will die without regret!"

"Hahahaha, brother Pan, I know what you mean, no, no! You have been in Changsha for a long time, and you may not know the situation very well, or you may have heard some villainous words. In fact, the governor is very good. You will know when you get along with the governor for a long time in the future." Liu Qi said with a smile, in fact, it is not the first time he has heard this kind of words, there are always some people who are not satisfied with the status quo and want to change something, but they don't have the guts and strength, he wanted to use Liu Qi to make trouble.

But although Liu Qi lacks ability, he is not stupid. He knows that although those people say it is for Liu Qi, they are actually for themselves, so Liu Qi never pays attention to them.

Liu Qi went on to say: "I met the Metropolitan Governor when I was in Jiangxia. Later, the Metropolitan Governor repelled Sun Quan's [-] army invasion by himself. I admire the Metropolitan Governor very much. Later, you also know that my father was killed by the Cai family. If it wasn't for the governor, I would have died at the hands of Cai Mao, how could I be rich and happy today? The governor has been kind to me!"

Liu Pan said: "I also know what my brother said, but after all, my brother is the state shepherd conferred by the imperial court, and the affairs of Jingzhou should be decided by my brother."
