Chapter 310: My King Returns
When Yuan Cao was preparing for a decisive battle, other princes in the world were not idle.
The battle between Sun and Liu lasted for several months, and there were victories and losses for each other.Under the advice of Zhang Zhao, Gu Yong and others, Sun Ce temporarily stopped the army to make peace and turned his attention to the north.He also sent envoys to Xuchang to ask Cao Cao for the position of general. If he refused, he would lead an army to attack Xuchang.
Since Jingzhou fought against Cao Anmin, it has been suffering from the flames of war.Now that Sun Ce has finally retreated, he has also breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Liu Biao was old, he had many talents under his command. Under the advice of everyone, tens of thousands of troops Chen Bing Xinye prepared to seize Nanyang in one go when Cao Cao's main force and Yuan Shao fought against Liyang.
Ma Teng from Xiliang fled back to Liangzhou like a bereaved dog after the incident happened, and his hatred for Cao Cao deepened day by day.He also won the support of the leaders of the Qiang people, so he contacted his righteous brother Han Sui, planning to take the opportunity to enter Guanzhong, attack Chang'an, and establish a hegemony.
The princes from all walks of life in the world moved upon hearing the wind, and a bloody storm swept across the entire land of China.
After Cao Anmin left Neihuang, he wanted to go directly south to Liyang to meet Cao Cao.Later, because Yuan Jun was chasing him, he could only detour through Puyang and enter Yanzhou.
In order to deceive the public, the Xuanjia Army could only pretend to be a caravan, recruited many more caravans in Yanzhou, formed a business group, and marched towards Xuzhou.
The ships in this caravan were of different sizes, and at first glance, one could tell that it was a caravan formed by the joint efforts of several merchants.
Because of this, you can pass many levels and reduce the trouble along the way.
In the entire business group, apart from Cao Anmin and the others, there was another large-scale caravan.
The leader of this caravan, surnamed Ge and named Huai, was from Yanzhou.Born in a poor family, he did not obey his destiny to farm at home, but joined forces with a few fellow villagers and started a business.
Over the past few decades, the business has grown bigger and bigger, and it seems to have become a powerful party.
Now, the war between Yuan and Cao is indeed the best time for these merchants to make a profit, so they continue to trade goods between the two states.
Familiar with the road and because the caravans are so large, few fools dare to rob them.
Only this time, Ge Huai was shocked.
Nominally, this time he was going to Xuzhou as an escort.But it is not goods that are escorted, but people.
I thought it was an ordinary task.
Unexpectedly, this caravan has hidden differences everywhere.
All Western Region war horses, three hundred powerful followers, equipped with extremely elite armor and weapons.Not to mention Ge Huai, even those who have been traveling for decades have never seen such a vigorous team.
Once the seeds of desire germinate, they will continue to expand. It is precisely because of doubts in his heart that Ge Huai always wants to inquire about the identity of this team.
It's a pity that these hundreds of people are like wooden people, no matter whether they are moved with emotion or given money, they can't ask a thing or two.
In the end, it was the leading young man who warned himself that it was better to ask less, so that he could bear the doubts in his heart.
When they failed to inquire, they decided to make friends and took the initiative to do what they liked. After dating for a few days, they were impressed by the temperament of the young man named Kan Ze.Whether it is conversation or appearance, it is not possible for children of ordinary aristocratic families, and I am afraid that it is only possible for the wealthy families at the end of the aristocratic family.
Therefore, Ge Huai was even more sure that this person was a son of a powerful and powerful person.
When he arrived in Feng County, Ge Huai originally planned to invite Kan Ze to have a meal together.Unexpectedly, the caravan took the initiative to hand over all the transportation costs to him.
"What do you mean, we haven't reached Xuzhou yet." Ge Huai had a look of surprise on his face.
After decades of business, let him understand a truth.
Faith is sometimes more important than money.
"No, our destination is Xiaopei." Kan Ze shook his head with a smile, and continued: "I would like to thank Boss Ge for taking care of me for this trip. I paid [-]% more for the trip, and it is considered as the cost of food and drink on the way. Bar!"
It was because of Ge Huai that he passed all the passes in Yanzhou smoothly along the way.
Therefore, this thank you is not an exaggeration.
"What? At the beginning, my lord, didn't you say that the destination was Xuzhou?" Ge Huai had worked in the caravan for so many years, and this was the first time he encountered something like Cao Anmin who gave money before arriving at the destination.
"Hehe, this trip is a bit secretive, so it's not appropriate to disclose it to others. To be on the safe side, I lied to Boss Ge at first, and please don't blame me, Boss Ge." Kan Ze looked calm and did not use any excuses to cover up the facts.
Although Ge Huai is a little strange, but in troubled times, everyone has a different style of acting.Even though I feel a little upset, since the other party has already paid all the money, I naturally don't need to stop them from leaving.
"Boss Ge, take care, we'll take our leave first." After speaking, Kan Ze quickly got on his horse.
"Take care." Ge Huai was a little disappointed, everything happened so suddenly, even though he had no choice but to part with this rich and powerful son.
However, when he looked up, he discovered something unusual.
Kan Ze, as the host, actually only lived on the far side, and in the middle was an extremely gorgeous carriage.The accompanying 300 people were all guarding the carriage, and it seemed that the real owner was inside the carriage.
Did I miss it?
This was Ge Huai's first thought, but he overturned it in an instant.
Whether Kan Ze is a child of an aristocratic family, he can tell at a glance.Such a person with bearing, self-cultivation, and good conversation cannot be cultivated overnight.He is definitely a son of a wealthy and famous family, he can't be wrong.
But even people like him have to be subordinates, which shows how prominent the people in the carriage are.
"Boss, in fact, I have always wanted to tell you that I seem to have heard the name of that son just now."
"Have you heard it?" Ge Huai's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly asked.
"Where is it, you have to think about it for me."
"Where are you coming from?"
After a while, the attendant suddenly opened his eyes and shouted: "That's right, it's in Xuzhou, and Kan Ze is Cao Zhendong's envoy."
Xuzhou!
Ge Huai turned around in surprise, Kan Ze's cavalry had already disappeared without a trace.Judging from the posture just now, the only person who can let him serve as a retainer's guard is probably only that person.
Thinking of this, Ge Huai beat his chest and stamped his feet, exclaiming what a pity.
The other merchants who came with him felt a little strange seeing him like this.
"Brother Ge, why do you look like this?"
Ge Huai told everyone the whole situation.
Everyone was also extremely remorseful, and the one who could use Kan Ze as a retainer, even if it wasn't Cao Anmin, must be some important figure in Xuzhou.As a businessman, he actually lost the opportunity to interact with such powerful people, he is really a businessman.
If Cao Anmin knew, he would probably only smile slightly.
A businessman's pursuit of profit is like a prince's struggle for hegemony. If you are prominent today, there will naturally be people willing to make friends with you.When you decline in the future, there will only be more people who want to step on you.
