Chapter 321 A Thousand Miles Journey
The reply was written by Wei Jian. The wording was very gorgeous and respectful, but——
It''s of no use.
Wei Ji is the eldest son of the Wei family, and Cai Yan is married to the second son of the Wei family, and Fei Qian is Cai Yong''s direct disciple. In a sense, the Wei family itself has some connection with Fei Qian. of.
Just like Huang Chengyan, the head of the Huang family in Jingxiang, married a daughter of the Cai family, and then Liu Biao also married a daughter of the Cai family. Therefore, even if Huang Chengyan was not the head of the Huang family, but just an ordinary Huang family member, he would still need a lot of care...
However, in his reply, Wei Qian was very polite, but rejected him thousands of miles away. He said that the elder in the family was unwell and needed to rest. He had not seen guests for many days. He was not specifically targeting Fei Qian, so he prepared a meager sum. Cow wine to express apology and so on.
The question is, what is the use of Fei Qian''s need for cow wine now?
??Fei Qian is not short of cattle and wine now, but he is short of manpower. Just one Huang Cheng and one Du Yuan are far from opening up the situation. Fei Qian deliberately detoured to Hedong for two purposes:
First, transfer the books from the Cai family to Cui Jun''s people who came from Xihe. After all, the situation in Shangjun is unclear, so it is not good to take these books rashly. Moreover, this is also the main reason why the Cui family has been supporting him;
Secondly, and also a very important point, Fei Qian hopes to find some manpower on the land east of Hedong...
But judging from Wei''s reply, the hope of finding manpower suddenly became very slim.
The Wei clan is the largest in Hedong.
Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Wei family has been a famous family of poetry and calligraphy. Wei Hao, the ancestor of Wei Kai, was famous for his Confucianism and enjoyed a high reputation in Hedong. Wei Kai himself was praised by the local gentry in Hedong, saying that he " He is good at ancient prose, bird seal script, and official script, and is good at everything." He is especially known for his talent and learning chopsticks, and is famous in Hedong for his articles.
It can be said that although Wei Kai has not officially become the current head of the Wei family, he is almost there, so Wei Kai''s attitude will represent the attitude of the Wei family, and the attitude of the Wei family will affect the attitude of the entire Hedong gentry towards Fei Qian.
So, now, it is difficult to handle.
When arriving at Anyi, it is natural to set up camp again. Fei Qian''s camp was only halfway set up when people from the Wei family arrived with cattle and wine, so fast it seemed as if Fei Qian couldn''t even react.
The person who came was the younger brother of Wei Jian of the Wei family, Wei Feng, named Meng Luan. When they met, he was extremely polite. He repeated what Wei Jian had said in his reply, apologized repeatedly, and then left. Gotta go.
??Fei Qian sent him out of the camp gate. Wei Feng suddenly saw someone at the camp gate hanging Fei Qian''s tricolor flag on the flagpole that had just been erected. He was stunned for a moment and his mouth opened wide...
"Fei Shijun... He is really unique in raising the flag like this, and it is unforgettable..." Wei Feng laughed, covering up his rudeness just now, "Ah, Fei Shijun, please stay and say goodbye, say goodbye..."
Wei Feng said goodbye with a smile on his face. He turned around and slowly stopped smiling. He glanced at the tricolor flag hanging on the Fei diving camp with the corner of his eyes contemptuously. He slightly curled his lips and said, "You are really a guy who has never seen the world." , even the flag is spelled out in three colors - it’s like a refugee’s rag, it’s such a disgrace to the family!”
Fei Qian stood at the gate of the camp, watching Wei Feng leave with several servants of the Wei family. He slowly put down his cupped hands and said, "The world is huge, and eating is the most important thing. Eat first, and then have a meeting after dinner." …Well, discussion.”
Humph, are you playing tricks?
?Let’s play together and see who can beat whom?
××××××××××××
Fei lurked inside the big tent in the camp.
?Fei Qian is sitting in the middle. On his left are the Huang family, Huang Cheng and Huang Xu, and on his right are the non-Huang family, Du Yuan and Cui Hou.
OK, this is the current team.
? Huang Xu, who was sitting on the lower left, was obviously a little nervous. There were beads of sweat on his dark face. He knelt on the mat and didn''t dare to wipe it away.
"Xu, nine suns, the extreme number of nine, the beginning of the sun." Fei Qian looked at Huang Xu and smiled and said, "Huang Xu, can I give you the character ''Zi Chu''?"
Huang Xu was overjoyed and left the table and bowed: "Thank you, Lord, for the words!" He kowtowed firmly, then returned to his seat happily to accept the congratulations of the other three people. In the Han Dynasty, the saying that a bad name is not worth mentioning is really not a polite saying, but a fact. People without a word will not be recognized by the upper class. Therefore, Fei Qian gave Huang Xu a word to express his sincerity. From now on, Huang Xu has officially entered the mainstream class.
Fei Qian smiled slightly and thought in his mind that how to run the small team currently formed by these people is actually the same as running a small company in later generations. It must be based on personal emotions as the main link and encouragement. Improve recognition of the team as a whole.
After calming down a bit, Fei Qian said: "Okay, we are all a family, be casual and don''t need to be too restrained. The situation we are facing now has two key issues, one is money and food, and the second is personnel."
"Let''s not mention the issue of money and food for now. Let''s talk about this personnel first. The issue of personnel is nothing more than two items," Fei Qian stretched out **** and gestured, "One is officials, and the other is soldiers. This, everyone Do you agree?"
Everyone nodded in unison.
"Let''s talk about soldiers first. If you have soldiers, you need people. Soldiers without people are trees without roots. So now the problem of soldiers has become a problem of the people. Where do the people come from? Think about where this is? Our Han Dynasty What are you doing now?"
Du Yuan reacted first and said tentatively: "My Lord, you mean... refugees?"
"It''s exactly what Wen Zheng said." Fei Qian clapped his hands lightly and praised, then stretched out his hand to make a vague gesture, "This is Luoyang. To the east there are wild jujubes blocking the way to the east, and to the south there is Liang County The road to the south is blocked. If someone is unwilling to move west, where can he go? "
"Only Hedong!" Cui Hou couldn''t help but added, but immediately added, "But Hedong may not be willing to let us..."
?Cui Hou didn’t finish what he said, but everyone could understand the meaning. Refugees are a great tonic. Any sane governor would find a way to eat these refugees...
?Of course there are many problems caused by the refugees, but no matter how many people there are, Wang Yi, the prefect of Hedong, will not easily give up these refugees to Fei Qian in the early stage.
So it can only be a deflection of the sword.
“When Luoyang moved the capital, everyone knew the price of grain, right? Well, Zichu, tell me, what is the price of grain in Anyi now?
"Wei!" Huang Xu was a little excited when he was formally called for the first time. He stood up and said, "I went to the city on the order of Fei Envoy to inquire about the price of grain. Now the price of millet is 620 yuan per stone in the market in Anyi. 460 qian, wheat 350 qian, and millet 380 qian.”
“I wonder if Yongyuan has any ideas?” Fei Qian smiled slightly and motioned for Huang Xu to sit down, then turned to look at Cui Hou.
Cui Hou’s little eyes suddenly shined with bright yellow light...
Mr. Guan Er is selling dates. Where do they come from?
They were beaten with sticks. If there were dates or not, they would be beaten with three sticks...
So, Guan Erye’s first three swords are the most ferocious...
The standard action is to swing repeatedly. Not only do you have to swing, but you also have to lift the pole high, otherwise the jujubes at the top cannot be reached and cannot be knocked down. Naturally, the arm strength is superior...
Side effects - Because I have been holding my head up all year round and am used to it, I can’t lower my head, which makes me look arrogant, and I am too exposed to the sun, so I can only squint my eyes due to some sequelae...
Beating a thousand kilograms of dates, my face turned red, my knife skills were charming...
