Chapter 69 A group of people who want to marry their daughters

Xuzhou general Cao Bao glanced at the people around him, he came out and clasped his fists and said:
"No, Cao thief came all the way to kill tens of thousands of people. If Xuzhou is captured by him, he doesn't know how many people will be killed by him. We would rather fight to the death and never surrender."

Tao Qian frowned and said:

"General Cao, Cao Cao's generals and counselors have countless troops and horses. It is difficult for you to defend the city alone, let alone fight against it? Do you have any good ideas?"

Mi Zhu came out and said:

"For today's plan, only General Zhenbei can check and balance Cao Cao. Two months ago, General Zhenbei sent troops to quell the chaos in Qingzhou and took over Qingzhou Mu and the Qingzhou army. I heard that he has many generals and strong troops. If he sends troops to rescue , we can rest assured."

Tao Qian said:

"But I have never had any friendship with General Zhenbei, and he hasn't been in Donglai for a year. If you ask him, he will do something. Do you want me to hand over Xuzhou to him?"

Although Mi Zhu was working in Xuzhou, he was actually still a businessman. He also sent people to Donglai to buy some goods for sale, including various cotton and linen cloths from Diaochan Cloth Industry, but Donglai's cotton industry was not big, but The fabrics were so beautiful and fancy that many noble ladies were willing to give up their silk fabrics for cloth. The most important thing was that the clothes produced by Diao Chan were simply too beautiful for the women.

Earning money for clothes for women and children is the scariest thing in the real world. In any world, money for women and children is the best way to earn money. Therefore, both Diaochan Cloth Industry and the garment factory belong to Tang Quan. His own woman came forward.

The looms driven by waterwheels and hand-sewn instead of technological production, plus styles and colors, these top-level clothes he sells are expensive enough, but rich people don’t care about this, so it’s not just stuff. There are also many businessmen in Lai County and the current Qingzhou, Yanzhou and Xuzhou who changed hands to make money.

Tang Quan only had friendship with Kong Rong at the end of the Han Dynasty. He cared about others. He knew about the accident in Xuzhou, but he asked Chengyang County Pass to let Xuzhou refugees settle in, and he ignored other things.

Tao Qian said that he would hand over Xuzhou to someone else, but of course he was just saying that he was not terminally ill at this moment. Although he knew that Xuzhou would be in danger sooner or later, he was still unwilling to become a rich man just because of it.

Mi Zhu smiled wryly and said:
"Your Excellency, you can try to revise the book. As Tang Quan, you should not refuse it. Zhu is willing to go and have a try."

At this moment, Cao Bao's eyes lit up, looked at Mi Zhu and said:

"I've heard for a long time that Azhen of the Mi family is a beautiful woman. The Great General of Zhenbei has only one wife and no heirs at this time. It's better for Mr. Mi to marry the Great General of Zhenbei. In this way, he should send troops for the Mi family."

Mi Zhu was stunned for a moment, showing dissatisfaction in his eyes, but he was eager to try in the depths of his pupils, but he pretended to be dissatisfied and said:

"What General Cao said is not bad, but Mi Zhu is in the business and my sister is not yet an adult. Even if the family fortune is not small, General Zhenbei will not care. I also heard that General Cao's daughter Fang is also a beauty. She is not as good as the general and General Zhenbei. How about getting married?"

Cao Bao would have thought so much, just now he just said it when he thought about it, and when Mi Zhu mentioned it, he laughed and said:
"Mr. Mi's words are not bad. Although my daughter is still young, if she marries into the Tang family and gives birth to a boy and a half girl, that would be fine. Would Mr. Mi be willing to be a matchmaker?"

Mi Zhu was stunned again. Cao Bao's daughter was only 14 years old, more than a year younger than his sister. Cao Bao was actually willing to promise his daughter to Tang Quan, which really surprised him.

You must know that in this era, many high-ranking officials and nobles kept concubines. Many old men in their sixties and seventies also married concubines who were eleven or twelve years old or even younger. This kind of thing is not very strange, but in families with status and status, all women You will not get married until you are sixteen, unless you have special reasons, you will get married early.

Tang Quan had his wife Diao Chan, and she had never heard of him marrying a concubine in Donglai for more than a year. When Cao Bao mentioned it, Mi Zhu had already made up his mind. If Mi Zhen could really marry Tang Quan, that meant that the Mi family could completely surrender to Tang Quan. He even betrayed Xuzhou to Tang Quan.

Now Cao Bao is actually willing to marry his daughter Cao Fang to Tang Quan. Mi Zhu glanced at the joy in Cao Bao's eyes and suddenly realized that he was not the only one who saw that the future of the Great General of Zhenbei was limitless, this Cao Bao was not just a fool.

They could see that Tao Qian was not an idiot. His cloudy eyes flashed with joy and he said:

"In this way, I think it's okay. My uncle's niece is also fifteen years old. She is also a rare beauty, and my family's Zhi'er can be seen even though she is not a beautiful person. In this way, Mi Zhengzheng brought four Nv Gengtie is going to see what the general wants, if he can accept it, I am willing to give it to the general with Xuzhou as a dowry."

"Uh"

Tao Qian's words surprised everyone. Tao Qian's daughter is only in her teens, but his niece has long heard that her skin is as beautiful as a jade carving. She is very mischievous and more popular than her two older brothers.

This time Tao Qian actually meant to let all four daughters be wives and concubines to Tang Quan. You must know that the Han Dynasty allowed one official wife to have two wives and four concubines. wife, but these four daughters must have been non-wives in the past;
According to Tao Qian's status, it would be wrong for his daughter to be his second wife. What's more, his niece is also the granddaughter of the former Cangwu prefect and a lady of the family. If she occupies the status of a second wife, Cao Bao's daughter and Mi Zhu can only become concubines.

Mi Zhu thought about it quickly. Being a concubine is much better than being a wife. He nodded hurriedly and said:

"In this way, I will rush to Qingzhou immediately, and we will definitely negotiate at this time."

Mi Zhu quickly sorted out the four female Geng papers and rushed to the Peking University General's Mansion in Donglai Town. Seeing how happy he was when he left, Chen Gui, a famous scholar in Xuzhou, frowned and pondered.

After Tao Qian dispersed the crowd, a young man beside Chen Gui said in a low voice:

"Father, what on earth do Tao Gongzu, Mi Zizhong and others think? Why do Xu Mei and Xu Nu look so excited?"

The young man was Chen Deng. He hadn't become an official yet, but he was already learning about the officialdom, but he didn't understand the scene just now.

In this era, although daughters are worthless goods and they can be given away as easily as long as the family needs to give something away, but they are all members of a big family. When it comes to talking about the three families, they are all willing, and they don't even mention the matter of wives and concubines. Chen Deng was puzzled.

Cao Bao is just a military general and doesn't pay much attention to such things. Fortunately, Mi Zhu is an extremely shrewd businessman. Even Tao Qian, an old ghost of several decades, is certainly not that simple to sneak into Zhou Mu, even if he is the one who lost Qingzhou. The guys from Zhou Mu are also resourceful people.
