After making the decision, Mi Zhu relaxed a lot. What he was most concerned about was the safety of his second brother and younger sister. These two remaining relatives were his weaknesses. If they stayed in Xuzhou, they might even meet a family that coveted Mi's money. At that time, Gao Cheng was far away in Lujiang and could not help again.

He had already thought that in a few days he would not only ask his second brother to go to Lujiang, but also send his younger sister there. With the care of Gao Cheng, the prefect, the two would never encounter any danger. In this way, he would not have any worries in Xuzhou.

Gao Cheng then thought of the Zhang merchant ship parked in Baimahu Water Village, and said, "Zi Zhong, this time I will wipe out some water thieves on the road and get a batch of goods. I would like to ask you to help me to replace these goods with food and grass!"

Mi Zhu sighed, with a little embarrassed look on his face and said, "I came to Huai'an this time for this matter. I believe Ziming didn't know that Mr. Tao's confidant, Zuo Rong, had been appointed as the prime minister of Xia Pi. This man is cruel and often takes his troops and horses to plunder people's wealth. My caravan was targeted by him and he has robbed three of my caravans in a row and snatched goods worth tens of millions of yuan!"

"So I came to Huai'an and wanted to ask Ziming to think of a solution. Otherwise, if this continues, Mi will definitely be seriously damaged!"

Gao Cheng frowned and looked at Xi Zhicai. It would take a lot of food and grass to resettle refugees. Mi family is an important channel for Gao Cheng to obtain food and grass. If Mi family is damaged, Gao Cheng will reduce a large amount of strong aid when he arrives in Lujiang. Even if Mi Zhu does not take the initiative to propose it, Gao Cheng will take the initiative to solve the problem for Mi family after he learns the news.

Gao Cheng knew a lot of information about this person, and he found records of this person in the previous world's historical books. His character was cruel and capricious. He and Tao Qian were fellow villagers. After joining Tao Qian, they were named as confidants and held important positions such as Xia Pi.

When Cao Cao attacked Xuzhou, he actually led his subordinates to run away with a lot of money and went south to Guangling to surrender to Zhao Yu. Zhao Yu, who was the prefect of Guangling at the time, accepted him. Seeing Guangling prosperous, Zu Rong killed Zhao Yu and appointed himself as the prefect of Guangling, and consumed a large amount of money, grain and manpower in Guangling County to build Buddhist temples.

After Guangling was completely harmed, he went south to Moling to surrender to Xue Li, killed Xue Li, annexed his troops and surrendered to Liu Yao, and killed Zhu Hao, the prefect of Yuzhang under Liu Yao...

It is said that Lu Bu is a slave of the three surnames, but Lu Bu can only serve as the chief clerk under Ding Yuan as the official position of the chief clerk, and has no military power in his hands. He betrayed for the sake of his future and ambition. Although it does not conform to the mainstream concept of this world, it is barely reasonable. Betrayal of Dong Zhuo is a hero who is sad to be in the beauty.

Liu Bei also defected to Gongsun Zan, Tao Qian, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and Liu Zhang, but in addition to being sorry to Liu Zhang, he worked hard for both of Gongsun Zan, Tao Qian, or Yuan Shao, and Liu Biao.

Among them, Tao Qian and Liu Biao both died, and Liu Bei took over Xuzhou and Jingzhou after their death. Therefore, although he defected to him, no one in the world would say that he was repetitive by nature.

Compared with Lu Bu and Liu Bei, Zuo Rong's behavior was unconventional. Such a scumbag was praised by Buddhist scriptures because she built some temples for Buddhism. Gao Cheng felt disgusted when he thought of Zuo Rong.

Xi Zhicai said a few words to Mi Zhu and also got some understanding of Zu Rong. He frowned and said, "Zhu Rong is Tao Gongzu's confidant, and the prime minister of Xia Pi. He is an official who is entrusted with two thousand stones. If such a person is wholeheartedly asking for trouble with Mi, it will be difficult to solve it! Unless you kill Zu Rong directly! But this will offend Tao Gongzu!"

Gao Cheng showed a hint of coldness on his face and said directly: "Since that's the case, then kill it! Zi Zhong, you will send a caravan to Pengcheng again. I am about to visit Zhang Zhao and set off with the caravan. If Zarong dares to appear, I will kill this person directly in the name of killing the bandits!"

"Za Rong only relies on Tao Gongzu's name to dare to be so arrogant. Others give him face, but he thought he was afraid of him! If he offended such a person, he would beat him to death with one stick!"

Zhang Fei, who was beside him, had just drunk a whole jar of wine, and was slightly drunk. When he heard this, his eyes lit up and laughed: "The envoy said this well, just like what I, Old Zhang thought! Brother Mi, don't worry, this time I set out with the envoy, and met the person you mentioned, and killed him with one spear!"

"I'm not from Xuzhou, so I don't have to give that governor Tao face!"

Mi Zhu looked a little nervous. Unexpectedly, Gao Cheng's solution was so violent. Xia Pi Xiang, who was entrusted with two thousand stones, seemed to be a chicken and duck to be slaughtered in his mouth. As long as he was willing, he could take the other party's life at any time.

When Xi Zhicai saw his expression, he couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Zizhong, don't worry. You don't need to come forward this time. All the matters are left to us. Even if Mr. Tao knew that we killed Zurong, he would never take his anger on you. Killing Zurong can also shock other aristocratic families and prevent these people from reaching out to Mi!"

Mi Zhu had inexplicable concern in his heart, and thought for a while and said, "Then do it like this. I hope that as the military advisor said, Mr. Tao would not vent his anger on Mi because of this!"

...

After staying in Huai'an for two days, Gao Cheng asked Gao Tai to assist Xi Zhicai in handling his foundation in Huai'an and sold Gao's fields and shops in Huai'an to county magistrate Huang Zun and Sun Xi of Sun.

At this time, Huang Zun and Sun Xi realized that Gao Cheng was promoted to the prefect of Lujiang, and almost fell off his chin. After reacting, he quickly gave him a generous gift and bought them all according to the highest price of Guangling land and shops.

Of course, they did not suffer any losses. After all, in ordinary times, they had no chance to buy land. This time they spent a lot of money, food and grass, and they got the foundation for settled down. So they were very excited.

Huang Zun and Sun Xi didn’t know that the world would be in chaos in the future, and these land shops would not be of such high value, and there would be wasteland everywhere in the future...

Thinking back that Gao Cheng had just returned from Yuzhou and uprooted the Mei family for 300 acres of land, this incident seemed to be yesterday. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Gao Cheng became the youngest prefect of the Han Dynasty from a white body.

This span is so large that it is unbelievable. Of course, they still don’t know that Gao Cheng received this official position after giving him 70 million Wuzhu coins. If he knew this, he might not have been so envious.

If you want to become a prefect, you must first make contributions and have the capital to be promoted to prefect. Secondly, you need a lot of money to clear the upper and lower levels. Ordinary people have no chance to buy an official.
