Volume 1 Who are the heroes of the world? Chapter 53: Attractive deal

Gushi City is not big, especially outside the city, after a large number of gentry outside the city who were afraid of the attack of ant thieves and their relatives and servants entered the city, many tenants and farmers who had left the land also followed the master's family into the city because of fear.

In addition, after the city of Gwangju was broken by the Caizhou army, many gentry and wealthy families from Gwangju still came to Gushi to avoid the limelight with the idea of ​​observing the situation, so for a while, Gushi city was a little overcrowded.

Various industries such as food, department stores and even brothels are naturally gathered. Although the days are still short, as long as there are people, they will not be short of these, giving people the feeling of a deformed prosperity in Gushi City.

No wonder Chen Wei was a little worried about the grain reserves in Gushi City. Although the official rations of Guangzhou are here, this is only one of the official rations. After the Gushi army fully expands its troops, the food consumption will increase greatly. Now that the old Guangzhou army has arrived, the gentry and wealthy families in Guangzhou have arrived, and a large number of rural populations in the county have poured in, and there is a fluctuation in grain demand and price, especially when the young and old are not in line, grain, a strategic material related to survival, is even more important.

Although it has been a day of chaos, this chaos has not been reflected in the outside world. Ordinary people do not know that a game that concerns their life and death has just ended, and fortunately did not bring about huge disputes.

The horse team and the carriage slowly passed through the streets, and the people on the streets consciously gave up the road. This kind of news has never been kept secret. There are always some well-informed people who can get the latest news through their channels.

The division of the Gushi Army was something that local prominent families, including Chen Wei, did not want to see, but in this era, the influence of local gentry on such independent military leaders was still quite weak.

From the expansion of the power of the vassal states in the late Li Tang Dynasty to the later Huang Chao Rebellion, either the local wealthy families themselves controlled the army, or the military heads were hereditary gradually evolved into local wealthy families. From marriage to infiltration, in terms of it, they were mutual needs to form a community of interests. Otherwise, you ordinary local gentry would not have much influence on the army at all.

People from Ezhou were arranged to recruit talents.

In name, it is the reception station of the old Guangzhou army. It requisitioned the street-facing houses close to the city gate, opened up several walls and connected several courtyards, and became a place similar to a station and a reception station, which is now used to receive people from Ezhou.

Du Li and his party had already returned first, but it can be seen that the visitors from Hubei and Huang remained highly vigilant. Although a preliminary agreement was reached, such agreements could be torn up at any time and battles could break out at any time. Therefore, a hundred cavalry basically relied on resting in private houses. Many people didn't even get off the horses. At the height of the city walls on both sides, they also arranged guard posts and crossbowmen as defenses.

Jiang Feng nodded slightly, this was quite a bit of an attitude.

Henan does not have much attention to the forces of the clans in the Jianghuai area, and believes that the combat effectiveness of these clans is questionable. It can be said that except for the forces that the Shi family in Huaibei and the Yang family in Huainan who participated in the battle to encircle and suppress Huang Chao decades ago, other clans in Jiangnan, even the Jingchu area are not valued by the clans in the Central Plains.

Du Li was already standing at the gate, and the black giant sword was still carrying it on his back, looking at Jiang Feng and his group coming over with a strange look.

Jiang Feng was also a little surprised. He should have turned right at this crossroad when he sent Xu's two daughters back to his residence, but Du Li's expression still made him feel that something might be wrong. He brought the reins to the horse and stopped, then dismounted to the carriage, and told the Xu sisters through the carriage.

The Xu sisters' introduction to Jiang Feng is also irresistible.

They are now very clear about their identity. Even if the Xu family in Guangzhou is still there, there is still a big gap between the Xu family and the Du family who controls the three states, not to mention that the two girls are now like dogs of a family. The third son of the Du family stands aside. If they don’t go to meet, it will definitely be unreasonable.

"Three Young Master!" Seeing the two Xu girls getting out of the car, the veiled slightest hat and silhouetted. Jiang Feng and Qin Zaidao then took a step forward, bowed their fists and greeted Du Li.

"Erlang, there's nothing wrong there?" Du Li was still very concerned about the division of Gushijun on the court.

"It's nothing. At this time, the Yuan family and Cao Wanchuan are probably not very good at it, so they dare not break up completely for the time being." Jiang Feng left Zhang Yue and Huang Anjin there to assist Gu Minghai, and He Decai rectified the divided Gushi Army.

During the whole process, both sides remained quite alert and then parted ways. Although the senior officials of both sides had not yet made a fight, the atmosphere did not evolve to the point where the conflict broke out.

After all, before today, everyone was still comrades-in-arms. It was still a bit difficult for anyone to suddenly turn against each other. Whether it was Cao Wanchuan or Jiang Feng, they had to consider this issue.

"Oh, that's good." Du Li nodded thoughtfully, "It seems that your guess is correct. The situation in Caizhou is probably not very good. Yuan Wuwei is not a good guy. He is not so easy to talk to. If he can restrain himself so much today, it seems that he is really worried."

"Three Young Master, now we are all fighting wolves with stalks, and everyone is still observing." Jiang Feng smiled slightly, "But the situation in Caizhou will definitely not be good, that's for sure."

"Well, these two are the two female teenagers of Xu Wangting?" Du Li's eyes turned to the faces of the two beautiful women who had not spoken. Although there were veils and shiroes separated, Du Li's sharp eyes seemed to see through the two women, "Erlang, do you know who came just now?"

"Who?" Jiang Feng's heart tightened.

"Yuan Wuwei." Du Li seemed casual, "He said Xu Wangshan really hoped that the two girls of his brother would return to Dingcheng, and hoped that we would hand them over to them and bring them back to Guangzhou."

Jiang Feng felt that the two girls standing beside him were breathing tightly. His expression remained unchanged and said lightly: "Is the Yuan family so unpopular in Guangzhou? Do you have to kill all the Xu clans to ensure the orthodox nature of the rule of Gwangzhou?"

"Oh?" Du Li smiled thoughtfully, "He asked me if the Du family wanted to enter Guangzhou. I said that the Du family had no intention, but the Du family could not be indifferent to what happened around him. He said that since this is the case, the general situation was settled, and the entry of Guangzhou into Cai was irreversible. The Yuan family was willing to live in harmony with the Du family. Then handing over the two female princesses of Xu Wangting to Guangzhou is also a manifestation of the sincerity of both parties. He said that in exchange, he could hand over the more than a thousand Cao Wanchuan to you."
