Dragon of the Three Kingdoms
Page 392
Because when Dian Wei was speaking, even though Dian Wei himself could fake it, when the soldiers heard Dian Wei's words, their expressions did not change at all, and their eyes did not look away, which all proved that what Dian Wei said was true .
Li Yi bought food in a big way, and at the same time he had such elite soldiers
It doesn't matter whether Li Yi has any big plans in the future, but Mi Zhu really doesn't want to make enemies with him.
Even though he knew that Li Yi's power at this time could not threaten the Mi family in Xuzhou at all, the wealth of the Mi family was second to none in Xuzhou, not only because of Mi Zhu's business skills, but also because of his outstanding vision.
Others value the present, but Mi Zhu values the future, and for a guy like Li Yi, Mi Zhu can be sure that his future is definitely not something they, a businessman, can compete with.
That being the case, Mi Zhu's thinking has changed. What he has to do now is how to guide the relationship between his family and Li Yi in a good direction as much as possible, and at the same time minimize the possibility of his family being swallowed up by Li Yi. Guarantee these two points, and everything else can be paid.
The three each turned their own thoughts, and arrived in front of the Mi family's mansion not long after. Dian Wei took a look at the face of the Mi family, and couldn't help but praise: "I only heard that the Mi family in Xuzhou is rich, but how can you be so rich?" But I don’t know, just looking at this house now is the only thing Dian has seen in his life.”
Dian Wei's words came from his heart, because Mi's house was too big, and he couldn't see the end of the courtyard wall at a glance. For Dian Wei who came from a relatively low background, this was completely unimaginable.
But Mi Zhu was sweating a little after hearing this, his current state was a bit close to losing his mind, he lost his position, thought that Dian Wei's words had some deep meaning, he was uneasy for a moment, and couldn't think of any words to answer the words.
Xu Sheng didn't know why this eccentric head of the Mi family suddenly started shaking his hands, but he still had a good impression of Mi Zhu, and he said for him: "The Mi family is not an ordinary businessman, and they have a very good reputation in Xuzhou. At that time, the Mi family would give porridge and food before the government, and many people were saved because of the Mi family, and Xu admired this kind of behavior."
Mi Zhu also came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly said modestly: "Where there is, the family has surplus food, so I should do what I can for the elders in my hometown, it's nothing."
Dian Wei was very happy to hear that, and said: "Sir, I must have had a fight with my master, but my master said that he hates those profiteers who drive up food prices when the people can't eat!"
Mi Zhu forced a smile, but took Dian Wei's sincere words as some kind of beating.
Several people continued to walk forward, and when they were approaching the door, Dian Wei suddenly stopped, turned his head slightly, and asked Mi Zhu, "Why is there sound of training in the mansion?"
Although Xu Sheng's ear strength is not as good as Dian Wei's, but with Dian Wei's reminder, he also noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with the movement inside, and looked at Mi Zhu in the same doubt.
However, Mi Zhu's expression changed. He had thought of setting up a drill formation at home so that Dian Wei could see the strength of their Mi family and gain capital for future negotiations, but after seeing the soldiers that Dian Wei brought Afterwards, Mi Zhu stopped this stupid idea, because he compared with Dian Wei's soldiers, and his own people might not even count as miscellaneous soldiers.
However, Mi Zhu's mind was turbulent afterwards, so he forgot about this episode, and didn't send a message home in time to ask Mi Fang to withdraw these exercises. Now Dian Wei reminded him to remember it, but it was already too late.
Mi Zhu was struggling with how to answer, but Dian Wei rolled his eyes and guessed what the Mi family was thinking.
Dian Wei is not stupid, it's New Year's Eve, not to mention the Mi family, even the officers and soldiers don't practice much, and the Mi family's abnormal behavior is probably to give Dian Wei a bad reputation.
Dian Wei smiled silently, didn't care, and continued to walk forward, and saw a young man who was five points similar to Mi Zhu in appearance, but younger than him, and a little less temperamental, came out of it. First he said to Mi Zhu his elder brother, then he bowed his hands to Dian Wei and said with a smile, "This is General Dian Wei, right? Mi Fang is being polite."
After Mi Fang finished speaking, she caught a glimpse of the guards behind Dian Wei, squinted her eyes subconsciously, and thought to herself that the guards were so powerful.
Dian Wei returned a salute, and said: "Dian mou hastily visited, I hope brother Mi don't blame Dian mou for taking the liberty."
Mi Fang chuckled, and wanted to continue talking, when Mi Zhu stepped forward, coughed lightly and asked him, "What's the matter with the shouting in the courtyard?"
Although Mi Fang was very dissatisfied with Li Yi's side, he still had some confidence in his heart, especially after the servants at home were replaced with those armors, Mi Fang even felt a little swollen.
Of course, Mi Fang also kept her brother's orders in mind, and didn't do anything just because of the swelling. Therefore, Mi Fang was quite satisfied with her performance, but what happened to her brother's sudden questioning? This time, I did everything according to his request.
Mi Fang opened her mouth, but didn't say anything. He felt that there was something hidden in it.
Mi Zhu stretched out his hand to ask Dian Wei and others to step over the threshold, and saw thousands of people in armor holding spears in the open space in the front yard, making gestures one by one according to the orders of the family coach.
Looking at this scene on weekdays, Mi Zhu mostly smiled and praised them a lot, but today she couldn't help but blush a little.
Some of the pierced spears were almost piercing into the sky, while others were competing with the reptiles on the ground.
There were more than 20 people in the front row, and some of them were obviously standing more than two feet higher, as if rushing to die, which was an eyesore no matter how you looked at it.
There is another corner, the actions of those men swinging their spears seem to be quite powerful, but the smacking of their mouths and the joy on their faces all show that they are very happy chatting
Before seeing the soldiers brought by Dian Wei, Mi Zhu didn't think it was a big deal, but he was afraid of comparing many things. Mi Zhu felt that these servants in his family couldn't look at them at all. How much can a person block each other?
one thousand?
Or five hundred?
Mi Zhu really didn't have any confidence.
"call"
Taking a deep breath, Mi Zhu turned his head and said to Mi Fang: "It's still Chinese New Year, why don't you let everyone reunite with their wives and children at home, but let them practice here?"
Mi Fang knew that things were different, but anyway, he had already been trained on a daily basis, so he resolutely confessed: "What brother said is that the foolish brother made a mistake, so he took the initiative to pull them out for practice, and ask brother to punish them .”
Mi Zhu shook his head and said: "Punishment is unnecessary. Give them a bag of millet later, and let them go home early. By the way, General Dianwei is an expert in military training. You should be with General Dianwei." Get so close."
"Yes"
Responding again, Mi Fang once again looked at the imposing guards behind Dian Wei, and faintly felt that his brother's attitude might be related to these people, but he didn't want to ask too many people at this time.
Dian Wei saw all this in his eyes, and became more and more sure that the Mi family originally wanted to scare him, but now his attitude has obviously changed, so he stopped chasing this issue. In addition, he also has some thoughts of his own.
If Li Yizhen is married to the Mi family, judging from the impression that the head of the Mi family gives people, it is obvious that he is going to be an official, and at the same time he is Li Yi's brother-in-law. Therefore, before receiving a clear order from Li Yi, he will not Will take the initiative to be unhappy with each other.
Mi Fang was ordered to arrange the affairs of the servants, and Mi Zhu asked someone to hold a banquet for Dian Wei and Xu Sheng. They ate and drank, and they didn't talk about any serious business. What they talked about most was Dian Wei's force, and the two were very fond of Dian Wei's bravery. Admired, but Dian Wei told them that he was not Li Yi's opponent in a life-and-death fight, which made the two dubious, but Dian Wei didn't explain much.
Until the end of the banquet, the atmosphere was good. Later, Mi Zhu called Mi Fang over and asked him to show Xu Sheng around his mansion. Xu Sheng knew that Mi Zhu was going to have a serious discussion with Dian Wei. After getting Dian Wei's consent, he went to Retired.
It was still the place where I had just eaten, but the servants were asked to remove the utensils. There was still a faint, soothing aroma of wine in the air, but the atmosphere in the room was obviously much heavier than before.
Mi Zhu sighed, then got up, walked slowly in front of Dian Wei, then cupped his hands and bowed deeply, and said: "Before the time when the Marquis of Xiang sent people to Xuzhou to buy grain, it was my Mi family who mishandled and detained the Marquis of Xiang. The responsibility for the matter lies entirely with my Mi family, and Mi will ask General Dianwei to accompany me here today."
Mi Zhu was still very responsible, and directly took this matter on the entire Mi family, or on himself, and did not push Mi Fang out. As for why he admitted his mistakes as soon as he came up, it was because the situation was stronger than others, and he couldn't help it. Not so.
Although Dian Wei likes to shake his fists, he won't overdo it when people treat him politely. He immediately stretched out his hand to help Mi Zhu, but Mi Zhu refused to get up, and continued, "To express my apologies, my Mi family would like to donate grain and grass to the Marquis of Xiang." Twenty thousand shi, and if Marquis Xiang wants to buy grain from Xuzhou in the future, my Mi family is willing to do my best to take care of it and send the grain to Nanyang at a fair price.
When Dian Wei heard this, his eyes lit up.
Mi Zhu opened his mouth and gave away [-] shi of grain for free, which is indeed very generous, but it was the latter one that Dian Wei cared more about.
When buying grain from Nanyang to Xuzhou, the biggest problem is not the price of the grain itself, but how to transport it.
This is a long distance, people eat horse chews along the way, and they have to guard against bandits, horse bandits, and even some local government soldiers. To put it bluntly, the freight is worth the food itself, and the Mi family just What he promised was to send the grain to Nanyang at a fair price, which saved Li Yi a lot of money and a lot of trouble.
With such an attitude, Dian Wei had no choice but to say aloud secretly, and even, if this was his private matter, he would definitely agree without hesitation.
But thinking of Li Yi's explanation, Dian Wei shook his head secretly, then pulled Mi Zhu up with a little force on his arm, and said with a smile: "What are you talking about, sir, what kind of heart is my lord, how can you give birth to me because of such trivial things?" Do you mean to blame?"
Mi Zhu smiled wryly and said nothing. He thought that the gentler Dian Wei's attitude was, the more it meant that Li Yi had big plans. Otherwise, with the generous terms he just offered, even if Dian Wei didn't agree directly, he should have hesitated to some extent. .
What Mi Zhu didn't know was that this was one of the reasons why Li Yi sent Dian Wei to Xuzhou.
Although Dian Wei's mind is not as flexible as that of a scholar, there is one thing about Dian Wei that even Guo Jia and Jia Xu can't match, that is, after receiving Li Yi's death order, Dian Wei will not change the changes in his surroundings. Insist on the same to carry out.
On the contrary, smart people like Guo Jia, although there is no doubt about their loyalty, when faced with changes in the situation, they may use their own judgment to abandon Li Yi's original purpose and choose conditions that they think are more beneficial to Li Yi .
Just like just now, when faced with Mi Zhu's "free shipping" discount, Guo Jia and the others might hesitate. If they can further ask for other benefits on this basis, it is not impossible for them to change their original purpose.
