() "Shh..." Niu Fu quickly made a silent gesture to Qin Xiaobai, and then whispered: "Low-key, low-key, I am here to perform a secret mission."
"Oh..." Qin Xiaobai looked like he suddenly understood, and then covered his mouth to indicate that he would not say anything.
He thought to himself: "It turns out to be Dong Zhuo's good-for-nothing son-in-law Niu Fu. In addition to the secret mission he just mentioned, he must have secretly discussed with the Qiang people."
Dong Zhuo is a native of Xiliang, and he also started his career in Xiliang. Although he is now the governor of Hedong County in Sili, his roots are still in Xiliang.
According to the plot development of the Three Kingdoms, Dong Zhuo should now have received the appointment as governor of Bingzhou.
Dong Zhuo's troops stationed in Hedong have aroused the suspicion of the court, so this must be a trick of overt promotion and covert promotion.
Because although the governor of the state nominally controls the prefect of the county, he does not have the power to command the army, but only supervises the impeachment. If Dong Zhuo goes to Bingzhou to take office, then all the troops and horses he stationed in Hedong will be disbanded, and several years of hard work will be wasted.
Historically, Dong Zhuo should have seen through the court's strategy, so he refused to go to Bingzhou to take up his post due to illness. In the end, the court had to appoint Ding Yuan to replace Dong Zhuo as the governor of Bingzhou.
All the officials in the imperial court were not fools. Could it be that no one could tell that Dong Zhuo refused to go to his post due to illness and continued to station troops in Hedong? There must be something inside.
Firstly, Dong Zhuo had considerable power in the court. He was the fourth and third prince of the Yuan family. He had an old relationship with his relative He Jin, and he might even have hooked up with the ten permanent servants now.
Secondly, Hedong was too close to Luoyang, the capital, and Dong Zhuo, who had become somewhat aloof and disobedient after the general was in power, was forced to do so, which might endanger the safety of the capital.
Thirdly, although Dong Zhuo rose to prominence through meritorious service due to the pacification of the Qiang rebellion, he kept colluding with the Qiang people secretly, and people in the court must have heard about it. The three huge Qiang rebellions in the history of the Eastern Han Dynasty caused a lot for the Eastern Han Dynasty court.
The trouble is, if Dong Zhuo is really pushed into a hurry, there might be another Qiang rebellion, but the court doesn't want to see that.
At three o'clock, after Dong Zhuo refused to take office due to illness, the imperial court just asked Ding Yuan to replace him as the governor of Bingzhou, and made other actions.
Of course, the court will remember this tone. Later, Dong Zhuo replaced Lu Zhi. After the defeat and the Yellow Turban confrontation, he was directly found to be punished by the court, removed from his position, imprisoned, and almost executed...
But that’s a story for another day.
Now it seems that the reason why Niu Fu did not stay in Hedong with Dong Zhuo and traveled thousands of miles to Wuwei County was just to keep in touch with the Qiang people, hook up with each other, and even make plans.
Because of Niu Fu's words about the successful person just now, Qin Xiaobai thought that Niu Fu should be classified as wise but foolish, or he was deliberately pretending. In short, he would not be as miserable as in history.
Therefore, Qin Xiaobai thought that Niu Fu must have a deep meaning when he revealed his name to him, so he covered his mouth and waited quietly for the next sentence.
"Waiter, why haven't the food and wine been served yet? Do you know who I am? Have you heard of Niu Fu, the son-in-law of Dong Zhuo, the prefect of Hedong? Serve the food quickly or I'll take your head..."
Unexpectedly, Niu Fu had just asked Qin Xiaobai to keep a low profile. When he saw that the food and wine had not been served, he immediately slapped the table and stood up, shouting outside...
"..." Qin Xiaobai was completely shocked this time. It seems that he still overestimated Niu Fu...
"Brother Qin, you are really amazing. This sentence was said by my father-in-law. It took me half a year to understand it, and it took my father-in-law's prompting to realize it. I didn't expect Brother Qin to understand it instantly. I admire you.
Come and give me three glasses of wine to Brother Qin." After Niu Fu finished shouting outside, he sat down and toasted to Qin Xiaobai.
"It's just a coincidence, it's just a coincidence..." Qin Xiaobai broke into cold sweat on his forehead. It turned out that these were Dong Zhuo's words and Niu Fu used them...
"Thanks to Brother Qin for entering the city gate this time. Otherwise, waiting for three days would have delayed a big event. In order to thank Brother Qin, if Brother Qin has anything to do, please let me, Niu Fu, tell me. It's within my ability.
I will definitely help Brother Qin finish it." After Niu Fu drank three glasses of wine, he smiled and said to Qin Xiaobai.
"Is there really one thing? Brother Niu Fu, does he know where the village building tokens can be sold?" Qin Xiaobai was overjoyed when he saw that Niu Fu was willing to help him, and quickly asked for the village building token.
Who is Niu Fu? He was the son-in-law of Dong Zhuo, the mighty governor of Hedong. He later followed Dong Zhuo in his rise to prominence and served as a general of the Zhonglang general. After Dong Zhuo's death, he was Niu Fu who succeeded Dong Zhuo and took over all of Dong Zhuo's troops.
Although he is a bit of a loser and has not been able to use it to achieve great things, he has left his name in history and can barely be regarded as a famous historical general. Moreover, unlike Zhang Xiu, he is a famous historical general in a high position. Ask him
You can definitely get some useful information about the village building order.
"The village founding token is something that foreigners need. What does Brother Qin want it for?" Niu Fu asked without knowing what was going on.
"To be honest, Brother Niu, I have been subordinate to others for a long time, and all my credit has been embezzled by my superiors, so I want to be the head of a village, and only one person should bear the responsibility for right and wrong." Qin Xiaobai started lying, and he was easy to follow, and his face was not red.
Don't jump.
Moreover, he had already seen that Niu Fu wanted to recruit. After saying this, he not only fulfilled the reason for asking for a village token, but also blocked Niu Fu's mouth about soliciting.
Sure enough, Niu Fu opened his mouth, but did not say anything in the end, and then said: "The village establishment order was issued by the imperial court to the prefects of various places. After most of the foreigners such as Yu left Xinxin Village, they began to put it on the shelves in various county offices.
You can exchange your military exploits for village building tokens."
"Now, Brother Niu has a way to get it. Qin is in urgent need of a village building token. If Brother Niu can help Qin, Qin will thank him generously." Qin Xiaobai has already heard that Niu has recognized it.
In the auxiliary words, it means that it is difficult to get the village building token. I am afraid that it will be difficult to change my mind later, so I promise a generous gift first.
"This is not a matter of generous gifts..." Niu Fu waved his hand.
"Ten thousand dollars." Qin Xiaobai said, the early period is extremely critical. If you build a village one day in advance, if you use it well, it will be a thousand miles later, so he wants to get the village building token almost at any cost.
"This...it's not a matter of money..." Niu Fu was a little moved, but after thinking about the difficulty, he finally refused.
"A miniature silver mine." Qin Xiaobai pressed forward step by step. He knew that Niu Fu loved money. After Niu Fu took over Dong Zhuo's military camp, there was chaos in the military camp one night. Niu Fu thought the soldiers had rebelled, but in a hurry he still carried a large amount of money with him.
Jinyin ran away for his life, but because he carried too much money, he was killed by his subordinates...
Moreover, what Qin Xiaobai promised was actually something he couldn't get. If Niu Fu could help him solve the mining problem, wouldn't it be a waste of money?
