Dragon of the Three Kingdoms

That kind of situation is not what Li Yi wants to see, let alone "free shipping", even if Mi's family sends food for free every month, Li Yi is not uncommon.

What Li Yi really wants is not the money of the Mi family, but the loyalty of the Mi family, because without the help of the Mi family, Liu Bei's future will be completely bleak

Chapter 313 Li Yi's bride price

Seeing that he was open-minded and full of sincerity, Mi Zhu bumped into a wall in front of Dian Wei. He was really depressed. After thinking about Dian Wei's character, he simply asked directly: "I don't know what the general Dian Wei is here. Why?"

Mi Zhu already knew some things through inquiring, but there must be more things he didn't know, plus some details, which required Dian Wei to say it himself.

If it were someone else, he would probably have a Tai Chi with Mi Zhu first, or to whet his appetite, but Dian Wei is a straightforward person, and he was not polite at all, and said directly: "My lord heard that the Mi family has a daughter, and now she is waiting to be married." Because of my age, I intend to marry my husband's younger sister as my concubine, and since then the two families have become good friends, and all the previous misunderstandings have been made in a flash."

Before Dian Wei could finish his words, Mi Zhu shook his head resolutely and said: "Mr. Xiang is flattered to see my Mi family, and I am very happy about it. It's just a coincidence that my sister has already been betrothed."

Although it is not impossible to take Mi Zhen as a concubine in Li Yi's capacity, Mi Zhu is unwilling.

Originally in history, he was willing to marry his younger sister to Liu Bei, provided that the entire Mi family put the treasure on Liu Bei, and regardless of whether Liu Bei had a wife at the time, anyway, Mi Zhen became a regular wife after she married, and Liu Bei would also marry her. His Mi family is his arm. From Liu Bei's official position after entering Yizhou, we can see Liu Bei's reliance on the Mi family.

But now on Li Yi's side, Mi Zhu's marrying his younger sister is not so much a marriage, it is more like a kind of "amendment". It is really sending her to be a concubine. He, the Mi family, had ulterior motives, so unless it really came to a time when the life and death of the Mi family was at stake, Mi Zhu would not agree to this request, no matter whether it was public or private.

"Hey"

Changing Dianwei this time interrupted Mi Zhu's words, and Dianwei cast a glance at Mi Zhu, and said with a sneer, "What kind of person is my lord, who predicts things like a god, even thousands of miles away!"

Mi Zhu's expression froze, and he asked, "Where do you start from?"

Dian Wei said proudly: "Before Dian's departure, the lord told me that if Mr. Mi told Dian that his sister had already betrothed to someone else, this must be used to deceive Dian, so that Dian need not worry about it!"

Dian Wei's eyes rolled when he spoke, and he had a bit of a "ring-eyed thief" demeanor, which was really scary.

Mi Zhu's face was embarrassed. Although he had a good psychological quality, Dian Wei's merciless forehead exposed the lie when he came up, making it impossible for him to get back.

And Mi Zhu was also very puzzled, how did Li Yi make sure that his sister didn't make an appointment?

Mi Zhu couldn't say anything more about Mi Zhen, so he could only put aside this section, and asked instead: "What scruples is General Dian Wei talking about?"

Dian Wei cupped his hands in the direction of Nanyang, and said: "Dian Wei's gains today are all given by my lord, the kindness of knowing you is more important than life, so if you can't complete the lord's mission on this trip, Dian will have to die!"

"you"

Mi Zhu was taken aback for a moment, then his face gradually turned red, how could he not understand that the death Dian Wei said was actually dragging his Mi family to die together.

Mi Zhu was really angry. The people Dian Wei brought were truly elite, which made him fearful. But Dian Wei only had so many people. Even if he himself was unbeatable, if there was a conflict in Xuzhou, As long as the Mi family is determined, Dian Wei and his party can be filled to death even if they use people to fill them.

Now Dian Wei is threatening his life at every turn, but Dao really thinks he can be bullied by the Mi family?

Well, think about it, the Mi family can really be bullied now.

Li Yi is a piece of beautiful jade, and the Mi family can be regarded as porcelain, but Dian Wei, who was thrown out by Li Yi to negotiate, is a stone that has been soaked in a latrine, smelly and hard, and the Mi family is really too big to overturn the table with this kind of person. Lost.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Mi Zhu said in a deep voice: "General Dianwei, my Mi family is a family of merchants, and we value peace as the most important thing. If General Dianwei is not satisfied with the previous conditions, you can discuss it again, but if General Dianwei It's too difficult to insist on bringing up these things that my Mi family can't do!"

Dian Wei saw that Mi Zhu couldn't be frightened by his staring eyes, so he secretly thought that the person his lord was looking for did not continue to be tough, but continued: "What is difficult for a strong man? This is not right!"

"Forcibly marrying my sister, what is it if it's not what is difficult for a strong man?"

Dian Wei chuckled, which made Mi Zhu feel very strange, because he saw an undisguised mockery in Dian Wei's smile.

After all, in Dian Wei's view, Li Yi will definitely be very expensive in the future, and it is a blessing in the world to be able to marry Li Yi, that is to say, Dian Wei does not have a girl, otherwise he would have tied it with hemp rope and sent it to Li Yi. up

It's just that Mi Zhu didn't know Dian Wei's thoughts, but was hit by Dian Wei's ridicule, as if he was a big bastard, and couldn't help asking: "What is the general laughing at?"

Dian Wei shook his head, there were some things he couldn't say for the time being, he didn't answer Mi Zhu's question, but said: "Sir, don't be in a hurry to get angry, and don't be in a hurry to refuse, my lord has said it, as long as Mr. Rong Dianwei finishes speaking, Mr. I will definitely agree to my lord's marriage proposal."

Dian Wei still didn't say half of what he said, which was that if the Mi family didn't agree in the end, he would kill someone.

Mi Zhu shook his head slightly. From Dian Wei, he felt that Li Yi was too strong. He really couldn't think of anything that Li Yi could come up with to make him agree to this marriage, unless Li Yi gave Xuzhou to him. Accounted for, but can Li Yi do it?

"Let's talk about the grain business in Xuzhou in the future."

Dian Wei said: "In the future, when my lord buys grain, all the grain in Xuzhou will go through the hands of Mi's family. There is no need for Mr. to pay back, as long as the normal market price is sold to Nanyang, and the half-way transportation will be borne by my lord, so there is no need for Mr. to bother. "

"Ok?"

There was obvious surprise on Mi Zhu's face, because after he offered the condition of "free shipping", Dian Wei would be stupid to say this now, and this is no longer trying to gain benefits for Li Yi.

With the Mi family's connections, they bought food in Xuzhou and sold it to Li Yi. Even at a low price, there was still a lot of profit in it. Moreover, the Mi family didn't have to worry about the transportation. It can be said that Li Yi was giving food to Li Yi. His Mi family gave money for nothing.

Mi Zhu really didn't understand why Dian Wei said that, it was completely inconsistent with Li Yi's interests.

Dian Wei didn't know if he understood Mi Zhu's thoughts, he snorted softly, and explained, "Who is my lord, who cares about such petty gains?"

"The lord has said that the Mi family is mainly engaged in business. Even though the relationship between the two families is close, they should always distinguish between public and private. If they ask for food from the husband for nothing, or even say that because the Mi family is rich, they will ask for it from the Mi family. That is not the way to be an official, nor is it the way to be a businessman, nor is it a long-term solution!"

Mi Zhu's eyes lit up immediately, even though he had a lot of complaints in his heart at the moment, but after hearing these words, he couldn't help admiring, what a boldness!

Take Xuzhou as an example, Tao Qian is a modest gentleman and has a good relationship with the Mi family, but even so, Tao Qian always keeps an eye on the money and food of the Mi family, and whenever he has the opportunity, he wants to scrape some from the Mi family. As free and easy as Li Yi.

Of course, the premise of this view is that what Dian Wei said was Li Yi's true thoughts, and it was not used to fool his Mi family.

Dian Wei continued: "Sir, you should be able to see that my lord's move is not because of the money of the Mi family. Moreover, the lord has said that as long as the husband agrees to marry the two families, my lord is willing to send a gift to the Mi family." Bao Mi's family has a hundred years of worry-free great wealth!"

Mi Zhu frowned, feeling that what Dian Wei said was too much, not to mention that Li Yi was just a prefect, even the emperor in Chang'an, now I am afraid that he would not dare to say that he can keep his family rich for a hundred years.

However, looking at Dian Wei's confident face, Mi Zhu could only cup his hands and ask, "Can General Dian Wei tell you what wealth is?"

"Wait a minute, sir!"

Dian Wei said, stood up under Mi Zhu's puzzled gaze, unbuttoned his outer robe, and then took out a bamboo tube about the length of a hand and two fingers wide from the belt on the inside, and put it on the table.

Mi Zhu frowned as he watched, he didn't understand what was in the bamboo tube that was worthy of Dian Wei's precious collection.

Dian Wei put on his clothes again, unscrewed the bamboo tube, took out a roll of slightly yellowed paper, and slowly spread it out, which was about two feet long. After smoothing it, he carefully brought it to Mi Zhu, and said, "Sir Please see."

Although Mi Zhu didn't know what it was, but seeing Dian Wei's movements, it was obviously extremely precious, and he didn't dare to be negligent. He stretched out his hands and took it slowly. , but thinner and smoother than Caihou paper, and like cloth, but tighter than cloth, and the handwriting on it obviously did not spill around when writing on cloth.

Mi Zhu racked his brains and couldn't figure out what the thing in his hand was, so he could only suppress his doubts for the time being, and turned to look at the text recorded on it. The title was "Thousand Characters", followed by Li Yi's signature.

This is Li Yi's article

With this thought in mind, Mi Zhu continued to look down, and soon his eyes were fixed, and he looked up at Dian Wei, seeing that the old god Dian Wei was there, as if he seemed to be convinced of himself.

Mi Zhu shook his head, and continued to read, with a serious expression on his face. Obviously, the content was very attractive to him, but after a while, Mi Zhu coughed violently twice, opened his mouth and stopped talking, but the article was only half , but the rest of the content became another article called "San Zi Jing".

It has to be said that Mi Zhu's temperament is still very good. Enduring the pain of the "eunuch" by force, he read the "Three Character Classic" and "Disciple Rules" to the end in one breath. Then he let out a long breath and asked: "General Dianwei, are these all fuss made by the Marquis Xiang?"

"Of course, apart from my lord, who else in the world has such talent!"
