Chapter 432: Yuan Shao's Winning
Freely holding, watching trucks of grain being pulled into the newly built granary, Wei Sanniang was sweating proficient in her personal inspection book. At this time, Man Chong stood beside her with a leisurely expression.
Wei Sanniang looked at the truckload of grain and grass and sighed, "It's true that business is not as good as thief! I have worked hard for several months to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to purchase more than 5 million dan of grain. You did this big business with Zang Ba without any effort, and easily earned 1.3 million dan of grain and grass! The big brother has been talking about the gold belt of murder and setting fire. Is this the situation?" At the end of the day, even Wei Sanniang couldn't help but cover her mouth and laughed.
Then he looked at Man Chong with a slight tone and said, "Master Man, don't you often preach the rule of law? Is it considered a violation of the law to kidnap a wealthy family by privately gangsters?"
Man Chong smiled coldly when he heard this, "I used to be just for the rule of law, but now I know politics!"
Wei Sanniang was stunned for a moment, thinking about the meaning of this plump words, and was silent for a moment: "Zang Ba proposed to exchange all ransoms for equal amounts of food, and now the price of food has increased by five times. If it is exchanged for money, we will make a lot of money, and we can fill a part of the financial gap that can be freely obtained. Why do you insist on sharing the food equally? Our current food can be enough for a year and seven months!"
After hearing this, Man Chong showed an incredible look, but seeing Wei Sanniang's eyes sincere and not as if she was fake, she immediately said speechlessly: "During this period, you have been buying grain in surrounding prefectures and counties. I thought you were the first person to understand your lord's strategy. I didn't expect you to know nothing. Don't you know that your lord was playing a big game a long time ago?"
Wei Sanniang said in confusion: "Brother asked me to buy food and grass with all my might, so I will buy it at all costs. Could it be..."
Man Chong was convinced. The woman's brain circuit was really strange. At this time, she was in a good mood and told Qin Ge's strategic intentions: "Zang Ba now has about one million Taishan bandits, and the average food consumed by the Taishan bandits is seven to eight times that of ordinary people on average! Zang Ba hid in the deep mountains for more than half a year, and he intercepted the food and grass of wealthy families, and he probably had bottomed out now, so when I proposed the kidnapping plan, Zang Ba dared to kidnap the risk of offending Liu Dai and the gentry in Yanzhou! Because his subordinates had no food to eat, he had no way out!"
Wei Sanniang was still a little confused, so she said: "Xiao Tianhu said that Zang Ba's kidnapping was too fierce, which led to the dissatisfaction of the Yanzhou gentry. Now the evolutionists of the Holy Shield Society lobby everywhere and were preparing to persuade the Yanzhou gentry to besiege the Taishan bandits. Many gentry extorted by Zang Ba began to unite. There is no free lunch in the world. If you blackmail others, you must have the awareness of being prepared to be beaten. When they really hit you, will we help Zang Ba?"
Man Chong smiled strangely and said, "This is the big chess played by the lord. The gentry in Yanzhou will never be able to send troops together. They will never be able to do so! Madam, you must know that Zang Ba obtained almost two million dan of food and grass through this kidnapping, which is enough to maintain his army's expenses for half a year. However, other forces, the Baibo bandits in Yanzhou, the Heishan Army in Jizhou, the Yellow Turban bandits in Qingzhou, and the bandits who occupied the mountains and became kings like locusts. They were driven into the deep mountains and forests by the imperial army. Now they have used up all the food and grass.
, Just as the autumn harvest was coming, the lady thought, when these hungry wolves were about to starve to death, what would they do, they naturally plunder the city and plunder the grain at all costs! This time, because we freely harvest and purchase grain and grass in the Yanzhou counties, Zang Ba blackmailed the latter, Yanzhou will have a shortage of food within two or three months, and the attacks of those returning bandits like wolves will be stronger than before. At that time, whether Liu Dai and Yanzhou gentry can defend the city will be different. Where can they have the opportunity to join forces to conquer Taishan County!"
Wei Sanniang's eyes flashed: "If the Baibo bandits captured the city, they would find that the gentry and people in the city had not much grain reserves. They would continue to attack the city and loot the rich until their food was satisfied! And we purchased nearly seven or eight million dan of grain and grass in advance, which would add fuel to the fire and intensify the bandits in Yanzhou, Qingzhou and Jizhou!"
Man Chong smiled and said, "When wolves are rampant in Yanzhou, do you think those gentry missed the quiet and beautiful times when the tigers that were so powerful that they were in Qingyan!"
Wei Sanniang understood Man Chong's meaning. If Yanzhou was disturbed by bandits, the Yanzhou gentry would find a way to invite Qin Ge back, and said excitedly with a smile on his face: "Do you think those gentry would join forces to invite the eldest brother back? Are you back soon?"
Man Chong sneered at the corner of his mouth and said, "They have no choice! This is the lord's plot!"
Wei Sanniang was immediately excited when she heard this, and her brain began to quickly calculate: "But recently those evolved people kept making noises, saying that we were free to collude with the Taishan bandits to kill the imperial officials..."
Man Chong said lightly: "We freely led the killing of more than one million Taishan bandits, and the Taishan bandits massacred more than two hundred thousand of our freely led soldiers. I have issued a notice to the entire Taishan County, not killing Zang Ba! And Zang Ba also issued a notice in the underworld, which is incompatible with Qin Ge! In addition, Ying Shao has already submitted a statement to the court, and the evidence is as strong as a mountain, so those rumors will naturally be self-defeating!"
A cold light flashed in Wei Sanniang's eyes. He knew that it was Man Chong and Zang Ba who were singing a double act. The 200,000 people massacred by the Taishan bandits were private soldiers of the major gentry of Taishan County who defected to Liu Dai. The million Taishan bandits killed by the Free Leader were naturally the Holy Shield Society and other evolved forces. After this battle, Taishan County was enemies with Free City, and the forces that betrayed Qin Ge were basically all eliminated. In the future, Taishan County really became the Free City and Taishan Bandits to share the world. Man Chong's move can be said to be extremely cruel and seamless!
At this time, the dark side of Man Chong's body made Wei Sanniang shocked and said, "Mr. Man! One of your feet has stepped into the darkness!"
Man Chong looked up at Luoyang City and said, "There must be a shadow of darkness under the light, so let me become the dark side of free-spiriting politics! This will make the lord's light shine wider! Only Madam, you know about this now!"
Wei Sanniang bowed to Man Chongyingying and said, "Mr. Man, I thank you for your brother!"
Man Chong did not dare to accept the courtesy, so he knelt on one knee and said, "Madam! When I saw Chen Yuan alone going to Le'an County to persuade Liu Pi, I suddenly understood Man's pursuit in this life, and I want to be the shadow of the lord!"
At this time, Chai Rong hurriedly came and clasped his fists and said, "Teacher! Sheep asked for a meeting! And she knelt in front of your mansion with two young brothers! Just now, the prefect of Ying Shao came to Liberty City in person and sent a letter of worship to plead for the kidnapped children of the Yanzhou gentry!"
Wei Sanniang said in surprise: "The Yang family in Taishan County! That is a famous genius! The Yang family has a high status among the scholars, and the Yang family is also very arrogant. When the eldest brother visited him in person, they asked him to wait outside the door for a few hours, and then sent someone to send him to send his elder brother. It's really rare that such a mighty Yang family can now put down their figure and see us! But what happened to Ying Shao? This time he finally compromised and stood by, probably because of pressure..."
The Yang family is known as the leader of the four famous families in Mount Tai. Moreover, the Yang family once had a great scholar named Yang Xu, who was a famous Han scholar and became the prefect. The allusion of Yang Xu hanging fish has been passed down through the ages. However, Yang Xu died of illness two years ago. Yang Xu had three sons, Yang Mi, Yang Mi, and Yang Dan were all famous historical scholars, but the three were young, Yang Mi was seventeen, Yang Mi was twelve, and Yang Dan was seven! So the head of the Yang family is Yang Xian, Yang Xu's younger brother.
The Yang family's ancestors lived in Nancheng County. Due to the Zangba Rebellion, the clan fled to Liberty City. However, the Yang family has been living in seclusion in the deep mountains behind Liberty City. Qin Ge has visited many times to ask them to go out to connect with the gentry of Taishan County. However, because his reputation in Yanzhou's gentry was too bad, he did not see the Yang family's people visiting several times. When the major gentry who fled to the Freedom to take refuge, they also came to flee far away to the mountains and forests when they saw that the Yang family was like this.
This time, Yang Xian, the head of the Yang family, was invited by Liu Dai to come out of the mountain to serve as the magistrate of Liangpu County. Liu Dai wanted to use the Yang family's reputation in Taishan County to win over the geniuses of Taishan County.
However, sadly, when a scholar met a bandit, he would be reasonable or not. Yang Xian was kidnapped by Zang Ba during this turmoil. The Yang family left their hometown at this time and had no extra money to redeem Yang Xian. Yang Secret was desperate and could only come and ask for favor!
Man Chong smiled sinisterly and said, "He Yang family is so arrogant. If you like to kneel down, just kneel down! As for Ying Shao, I can take the opportunity to beat him and let him recognize his status. In the future, we will be the leader of Taishan County, so he, the prefect, will be named first!"
...
A severe headache came, and Qin Ge only felt the pain and opened his eyes slowly. What caught his eye was a pretty face.
Qin Ge was shocked and wanted to sit up, but his head was like a needle, covering his head and causing great pain.
"Young Master! Are you okay?" A gentle and soft voice came, and Qin Ge saw clearly that he had returned to the small pavilion in the backyard of the Confucian and Taoist Holy Palace, and four women stood in the room at this time.
A woman was wearing a palace outfit and a dignified and beautiful face, serving his daily life; a woman was wearing an embroidered suit, burning incense not far away, kneeling and arranging flowers; a woman was dressed as a book boy, tidying up books; a woman was wearing leather armor, holding her arms and leaning against beams and pillars, her eyes were as cold as ice. With Qin Ge's experience of struggling on the battlefield, he could feel that the woman's hands were covered with blood.
Qin Ge was stunned for a long time and said, "You are..."
The woman in the palace dress who was serving Qin Ge coughed lightly, and the other three girls came over. The woman in the palace dress introduced herself: "Young Master! All of us are maids raised by Yuan. Master Yuan Wei gave us to Mr. Shao, and Mr. Shao asked us to serve you. My name is Yingchun, good at hand sewing, meticulous in cooking, and presided over housework! This one is Chuxia, good at singing, dancing, chess and paintings, can serve Gongzi entertainment! This one is Qiu Shi, good at classic study, can accompany Gongzi to study, and the last one is Dongxue. He is good at martial arts fighting, and is specially used to protect Gongzi personally!"
When Qin Ge was in a circle, Cao Cao walked in in a coat of arms and looked up and down with his eyes. Although these four were maids, they were beautiful and unconventional, and they were all extraordinary in temperament. Compared with the daughters of ordinary gentry in Luoyang, they were far superior to those of the daughters of ordinary gentry in spring, summer, autumn and winter. Moreover, their temperament and talents were different in spring, summer, autumn and winter, which made Cao Cao feel a little confused for a moment.
However, when he heard Qin Ge's dry cough, Cao Cao rubbed his hands awkwardly and said, "Boxi! You are full of fragrance now. Although you missed the Mid-Autumn Festival Moon Appreciation Courtesan and admired the extraordinary beauty, Benchu was able to give you these four flesh to love, which shows that he really treats you as his own!"
After saying that, he pointed to these four maids and said to Qin Ge: "Some aristocratic families will specially keep maids in captivity. They will first go to various places to select and sell beautiful and high-quality young children, and then classify and train them according to their strengths and teach them various skills. After a long-term training of the system, maids with both talent and beauty will be cultivated. These four maids are the top maids raised by the Yuan family, and only Zongzheng of the Yuan family deserves it. This time, Benchu shines brightly. Many old people in the Yuan clan are optimistic about him. This is specially given to Benchu by Yuan Wei, and Benchu will send it to you directly!"
Qin Ge immediately sweated and said speechlessly: "This gift is a bit too much..."
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Boxi! What's this? These are just maids. As you are, there are not many decent maids, and they also seem to be tasteless and not up-to-date!"
After saying that, he patted Qin Ge on the shoulder and said, "Boxi! Although you almost lost your life this time, you bet right. Although Benchu is a little stubborn, he is also a true nature. As the saying goes, you know the power of the horse from afar, and you will see people's hearts over time. This time you help Benchu defeat Yuan Shu, help him to wipe out the shame of his concubine's son, and he is even more famous. He treats you sincerely like a brother! This time the general temporarily summons him to form the champion cavalry, and specifically reminds me to take care of you for him!"
After saying that, he took out a water droplet with a blue halo from his arms and handed it to Qin Ge, "Boxi is the night pearl of the South China Sea. This thing is a treasure for the water-type monks. This is one of the first prizes of the Dragon Fight. The Jueying Horse will belong to me. This Nanhai Night Pearl is yours! This is a rare spiritual object in heaven and earth. If it weren't for the war years, I'm in a hurry to lack a good horse, and I don't want that Jueying Divine Horse anymore, and I have to compete with you!"
The Night Pearl of the South China Sea (Treasure Materials of Heaven and Earth):
Introduction: It is the essence of the water-based dragon veins.
Water Spirit: It can stimulate the spiritual energy of the world. The concentration of the spiritual energy of the water system within three meters of the dragon ball is doubled.

Shuihua: Shuiling beads can nourish the body, strengthen the foundation and cultivate the essence and accumulate energy!

Cao Cao was quite reluctant to leave the night pearl in the South China Sea. This thing is a spiritual object for nourishing the body, especially for men, it is definitely a priceless treasure and one of the holy objects for nourishing the kidneys.
