"I thought I would bother the general for a while. Since the general is already prepared, I will leave the day after tomorrow at the latest. Hehe, business is difficult now. Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Jiangdong and other places need salt, and livestock are even more scarce.

It is really a blessing in my life to be able to cooperate with the general today, please rest assured, general, I will definitely recruit the craftsmen you need as soon as possible, by the way, I heard that the general is also very interested in recruiting refugees? "

"Well, western Liaoning is vast and sparsely populated, and I'm going to develop this area well." Chen Feng nodded and said, "If you can help me recruit those homeless refugees, I will be very grateful."

"This, I'm afraid it's not easy to do."

Mi Zhu frowned, the west of Liaoning is a place of bitter cold, not everyone wants to come here.

"If the general doesn't have enough food, how can he feed the refugees? Besides, most of these refugees are homeless because they have been squeezed too hard and lost their land. Let them come to the west of Liaoning..."

"I'll give them the land, and they won't have to pay taxes for five years."

Chen Feng knew what the other party was worried about.

"Moreover, I will provide them with cattle and agricultural tools for free. As for safety, my soldiers are not vegetarians. You tell those refugees who want to come, if the prairie cavalry dare to come, I will kill them all."

"So cruel."

Mi Zhu was frightened by the other party's tone. Everyone knows the dangers of alien races in the grassland. The young general in front of him dared to say such big words. Could it be that he defeated the Xiongnu army at Yanmen Pass?

"I think Mr. is an expert in business. Why don't you set up a shop in the west of Liaoning." Chen Feng intends to strengthen cooperation with the other party. As long as the other party is hooked, the next thing will be easy to handle.

"That's exactly what I mean, but I won't have time to report it to the general in the future."

Mi Zhu really has this idea. If he wants to do business for a long time, he must not set up a store here. At least he must have a warehouse here and a place to rest.

"By the way, sir, do you know if Liu Bei is here?" Seeing that the business talks were about the same, Chen Feng suddenly remembered something. The Mi family finally followed Liu Bei, so he had to find out now.

"I've heard of Uncle Liu's name." Mi Zhu replied sincerely: "In the old days when Cao Bandits sent troops to slaughter Xuzhou, Uncle Liu led an army to help. At that time, I even donated food, grass and equipment.

It's just that a series of accidents happened later, and now Uncle Liu Huang should be at Xudu's place. Could it be that the general and Uncle Liu also have friendship? "

"Huh? We haven't come together yet, so we have a chance." Chen Feng knew that Liu Bei would also be his big opponent in the future, and it would be best if he could weaken his strength now.

"Hehe, Liu Bei, you are just a villain who deceives the world and steals his name."

Chen Feng snorted coldly: "Originally, I shouldn't say anything about him behind other people's backs, but this person's behavior is enough to prove that he is a hypocrite. Since I am a business partner with my husband, then I would like to advise you that if you meet this person in the future , or be careful."

"If that's the case, thank you General." Although he didn't know why Chen Feng hated Liu Bei so much, Mi Zhu didn't intend to refute.

His impression of Liu Bei still stays at the time when Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou. He doesn't remember much about what happened later, after all, he is just a businessman.

"Since Liu Bei is still in Xuchang, it means that the Yidai Zhao in history has not yet happened."

Chen Feng vaguely remembered such a thing.

"It is estimated that my arrival led to the change of Cao Cao's plan. With Cao Cao in Yanzhou, how dare Liu Bei make small moves.

However, when Cao Cao leads the army to leave again, it is estimated that this guy will be restless, no, I have to prepare too. "

After leaving Chen Feng's mansion, Mi Zhu wandered around the street with a few servants.

It wasn't the first time he came to Liaoxi, and he was quite familiar with the surrounding environment, but this time he came to Liaoxi, he found that the complexions of the people around him were much better.

"Maybe this general really has some tricks."

Looking at the smiling people, Mi Zhu felt a little admiration for Chen Feng in his heart. After all, it really took some skill to make such a big commotion in this bitter cold place.

"Buy the shops I mentioned just now, and this will be the business name of my Mi family from now on."

Mi Zhu acts resolutely, especially when he sees a business opportunity, he doesn't hesitate anymore. From the gift list he gave Chen Feng, it can be seen that he is a person who knows how to do business.

"As for the warehouse, let's take a look." Anyway, it's still early, and Mi Zhu plans to go shopping more. By the way, he also has to investigate what is lacking here in western Liaoning. He can consider adding more goods when he comes next time.

"The caravan is back,,,,,," I don't know who shouted this sentence, I saw a team of cavalry at the city gate leading horses and driving cattle and sheep coming over. This is the merchant Chen Feng sent to the grassland to do business. one of the teams.

"So many cattle, sheep and war horses,,,,,,"

Looking at the herds of cattle, sheep, and horses, Mi Zhu's face was a little excited. As long as there are enough livestock in Liaoxi, the possibility of him expanding his business will be greater.

"There are almost five hundred horses. It turns out that this general has such a means. It seems that I underestimated him before. No, I have to act quickly. If the Zhen family gets news, it will be troublesome."

Seeing so many cattle, sheep and horses, Mi Zhu immediately ordered a reliable servant to return to Xuzhou to arrange related matters. He did not want to share such business opportunities with others.

"Master Bing, may I ask if these are all the livestock you exchanged from the grassland?"

In order to find out more accurate information, Mi Zhu Limara asked a soldier, "I see that the soldiers under General Chen's command are exceptionally elite. Presumably the aliens on the grassland would not dare to think of you."

"Haha, you are right."

The soldier felt a little flattered by Mi Zhu's flattery.

"To tell you the truth, those grassland tribes still have the intention to plunder us now. Once they see our flag, those aliens will drive herds of cattle, sheep and horses to beg to do business with us.

This is the first team we traded back from the grassland, and there will be more cattle, sheep and horses in the future. Huh, you don't know, they are willing to exchange a small bag of refined salt for a sheep.

Moreover, my general is thoughtful, and every time he goes out to do business, he will send hundreds of cavalry to accompany him for protection. Once the grassland tribes have other thoughts, we will burn the goods and leave. "

"So that's the case. Although there are not many hundreds of cavalry, it's not something everyone can handle."

Mi Zhu knew that it was not that simple to do business on the grasslands. Without enough strength, everyone would want to bite you. Even a caravan formed by a big business like the Mi family would not dare to say that there could be hundreds of cavalry.

"Mr. Mi, so you are here..."

A soldier ran over to greet Mi Zhu and shouted: "At the order of my lord, come here to hand over the gift list. The cattle, sheep and horses you want are already outside the city. As for the refined salt, it is now in the city. Let me get it, sir."

"So fast?"

This is the second time for Mi Zhu to say this. I thought it would be a great speed to get ready tomorrow, but who knew that the moment I left, the other party would finish the matter immediately.

"My lord has said that Mr. is a nobleman from western Liaoning, so he should be taken seriously." The soldier was more eloquent, and Chen Feng had deliberately instructed him, so he only spoke nice words.

"In front is the warehouse where we store refined salt, sir, please come here,,,,,,"

Looking at the solid houses made of stones, Mi Zhu was very surprised. He didn't understand how the other party did it.

"Your warehouse,,,,,,"

"Oh, here's a house we built out of cement, absolutely solid and reliable."

The soldier explained to Mi Zhu: "The ground is also paved with cement, sand and gravel, which is waterproof and fireproof. You don't have to worry about it. In addition, my lord has specially reserved a warehouse for him. It's a gift to thank you for your assistance."

"It's just doing business, so there's no such thing as assistance."

Mi Zhu looked surprised. Although he didn't know what cement was, he guessed that it must be a building material that can strengthen stones.

"Is my warehouse also built with these materials?"
