Crossing the Battle of the Three Kingdoms

Ma Guang said: "You mean, before he makes a move, offer it yourself."

"Yes." Kuai Liang nodded and said, "What I'm waiting for him can still be controlled. If I let him do it, I'm afraid the loss will be even greater."

Feng Shi Feng Mo said at this time: "There is no need to be so anxious, Liu Biao is going to take over Cai Mao's military power right now, I'm afraid he won't be able to wait for me in a short time."

Regarding their own interests, these aristocratic families would not listen to the arrangement so readily.

Seeing that Feng Mo disagreed, Kuai Liang looked at Ma Guang and said, "Tell me your opinion. If you don't agree, then forget it, but the Kuai family will do what you just said."

As soon as this remark came out, it meant that the three families would part ways. Ma Guang didn't want to have internal problems at this juncture.

Ma Guang frowned and said, "Is there no way to get the best of both worlds?"

Kuai Liang said: "What Liang just said is the best way to achieve both. Taking precautions before they happen is the kingly way. We must take the initiative and not let Liu Biao gain the upper hand."

Things changed so suddenly that it was very difficult for people to change their thinking all at once.

Since the two parties have different opinions, it is a dilemma for Ma Guang to be caught in the middle. After all, offending either party will bury hidden disasters.

After thinking for a long time, Ma Guang said to Feng Mo: "Brother Zirou is also thinking about our interests, or agree, we should be of the same mind."

"Phew." Feng Mo let out a sigh of relief, and said in a compromise: "Okay, since both of you have the same opinion, the old man has no objection, but you should give a clear answer as to how much Liu Biao is allowed to intervene."

Seeing that both of them agreed, Kuai Liang showed a relieved smile on his face, and hurriedly said, "It's simple, let Liu Biao sneak in a few cronies, and then allow him [-]% of the annual profit."

Chapter 462 Jingzhou Changes

It's a trivial matter to secretly insert cronies, and it can still be bought, but [-]% of the profit is a huge sum of money, and it's not something you just give up.

Feng Mo stood up and said, "Brother Zirou should know how much [-]% of the profit is, and if it is given away for nothing, it may not be remembered by Liu Biao. I disagree."

At this time, Ma Guang also objected: "Yes, this is too much. If it is not half-baked, please express your favor to Liu first and see the effect."

Regarding this reaction, Kuai Liang had thought about it a long time ago, and knew that the two of them would object, so he deliberately said more to pave the way for the next one.

Kuai Liang said slowly: "Okay, but it's half a percentage point. We must give up. Liu Biao's control over Jingzhou is still not small."

Half of the profits of the three giant industries is also very huge, and it is enough to feed a city with ease.

Although he was reluctant, Kuai Liang had already made concessions. If the two families still disagreed, it might be unreasonable. Moreover, from his words, Kuai Liang also hinted that Liu Biao was a man with a little ambition.

Ma and Feng looked at each other and nodded painfully.

Seeing that the two agreed, Kuai Liang went on to say: "Also, recently restrain the children of the family and don't let them come out to cause trouble. If Liu Biao catches the handle, I'm afraid he will make use of it."

The three giants control more than half of the lifelines of Jingzhou, and it is inevitable that there will be some high-ranking and troublesome people among the children of the clan.

As usual, just turn a blind eye and close one eye, it will pass, but the current situation is full of variables, Kuai Liang has to say hello in advance, so as not to cause trouble.

Naturally, the two families would not object to this request. They didn't want to give up the meat and let the wolves stare at it.

The three families talked and talked until midnight before they left.

On the second day, Liu Biao slept until the sun was up, and just now he came out of his concubine's room, and went to have dinner listlessly. It seemed that last night must have been extremely hard.

As soon as Liu Biao had eaten his fill, before he had time to wait, someone from his servants came to report that the heads of the three families of Kuai, Ma, and Feng had come to ask for an audience.

For this anomaly, Liu Biao was also very curious. How come all parties came to visit in just a few days. Usually, they were procrastinated in summoning them. How could they come to their door by themselves now.

Unable to figure it out, Liu Biao simply didn't bother to think about it, anyway, he would know their intentions after a while.

Liu Biao asked his servants to take him to the wing, and went to change into formal clothes by himself, before he went slowly.

Entering the house, seeing the three people sitting upright, Liu Biao relaxed his expression and said seriously, "What is the purpose of coming here today?"

Kuai Liang stood up and said: "My lord, Liang came here today to let the lord visit our property and let the lord send someone to manage it together."

Um?

What's the matter, did you take the wrong medicine? It's only been two days, why are they all delivered to your door? Could it be that Cai Mao leaked the news?

Liu Biao frowned slightly, and said slowly: "You are the mainstay of Jingzhou, have you heard any rumors, if so, you can rest assured."

Kuai Liang shook his head and said, "My lord, I've thought about it a lot. Now that the world is in chaos, it's all thanks to my lord that Jingzhou can get such a pure land. We only do this to express our loyalty and gratitude."

It seems that they didn't come here to test, but sincerely intend to give up part of the benefits.

But this is very good, how could they think of asking themselves to intervene, it took a lot of effort at the beginning, but it didn't work, now they ask for it.

It's really hard to understand, Liu Biao said: "Okay, Benzhou Mu will kiss a few people and go to help manage it."

Kuai Liang said respectfully: "Okay, the lord can send someone at any time, we have already made arrangements."

Unexpectedly, they were already ready to let him take over, Liu Biao smiled, and a lot of doubts in his heart disappeared.

As long as someone is sent into the family property, Liu Biao believes that his hand will be stretched longer and longer in a short time.

Pang Tong's calculation quickly disrupted the situation in Jingzhou, which was also what he expected and expected.

Only by keeping Liu Biao's mind divided between different things and preventing him from concentrating on one thing, can Pang Tong have time to gain the trust of Cai Mao's generals.

The situation in Jingzhou is changing rapidly, and as the key person in this matter, he is setting off from Yuzhou and preparing to return to Jingzhou.

With the lessons learned from last time, Madam Cai changed her itinerary this time and planned to return to Jingzhou by water to avoid encountering bandits.

I don't know if it was fate, but the waterway hadn't been traveling for a few days, and they ran into a group of drought bandits.

It is more realistic to say that it is a drought bandit than a remnant soldier who has taken off his military uniform.

In the waters under the jurisdiction of Zhongyang Mountain, a group of remnant soldiers suddenly came a few years ago. They specialize in robbing the rich and helping the poor, and never do anything to the poor.

Regarding the sudden appearance of foreign thieves in the territory, Jingzhou officials did not eliminate them in time, because there were thieves and bandits who moved every day to commit crimes.

And these rogues would usually leave after staying for a while. Jingzhou officials thought that this group of thieves would leave after staying for a while, so they didn't take it to heart at all.

Back to the theme, on a relatively calm water area, the passenger ship flying the Cai character flag was blocked by seven or eight fishing boats.

Cai Kang, the leader, was discussing with the leader on the opposite side. Judging from the expressions on both sides, the negotiation did not seem to be going well.

Cai Kang said angrily, "I'll say it one last time. This is a passenger ship. I don't have much money. Don't be aggressive."

The leader on the opposite side is a young and strong man in brocade clothes, holding a double halberd from time to time, waving twice from time to time, looking at Cai Kang disdainfully.

Judging from the expression on his face, he didn't believe Cai Kang's words at all. "It doesn't matter what you say, let me wait for my brother to board the boat and see for myself."

Cai Kang angrily scolded: "There are Liuzhou Mu's family members on board, you waited for a group of unruly thieves, boarded the boat and frightened Madam, you can bear it."

Liu Zhoumu's family members still have to go to seek refuge, so they have to be careful to confirm this, so as not to cause an irreversible situation.
