In Lujiang County, above the river, Cao Jun, Gan Ning, and Tai Shici retreated to the depths of the north of the Yangtze River after their great victory. Navigation was restored on the Yangtze River.
In this world, Sun Zhongmou vigorously hunted slaves. Except for the Lu family, the four major families in Wu County were not deeply involved, and the other three families all made a lot of money because of the people of Baiyue.
Those who love Baiyue women the most are from the Yizhou family. If the Yangtze River is cut off for a day, a lot of grain will be lost to the east of the river. Even if there is a war, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin will not dare to block the river for a long time.
Sun Quan had a weak nature and only had the balance of strength in his eyes. Even Liu Biao and Huang Zu, who shot his father, were willing to pay money and food to cross the border.
The second brother got up at Chenshi and saw the rolling river, boats and boats on the river, and the endless flow. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
In Yun Chang's eyes, the top battles in the world are all in the north. He is a king player, but now he has been reduced to the bronze game. He thinks of the beauty Diao Chan, but he can't love her, and he can't help but have poems and thoughts.
The second brother didn't study much, but he was born with warm blood and his body temperature was higher than that of ordinary people. At this time, Literary Saint got upper body, looked at the scenery of the Yangtze River, leaned on the railing and spoke in a deep voice.
"The rolling Yangtze River passes eastward, and the waves..."
Yang Shen's poems were about to be published a thousand years in advance. Suddenly, the boat in Xuzhou shook violently, as if it had been hit suddenly.
Most of the people on the boat said "Oh!" and fell on the deck. Mi Fang would have almost fallen into the river from the stern of the boat if Zhou Cang hadn't pulled her up.
The second brother was calm and unafraid, his feet seemed to be nailed to the deck, but when he looked at the Soochow warship blocking the bow, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"General Guan, you must not be angry. Money has already passed this line. I think there is some misunderstanding!"
"The general has a majestic appearance and is easily recognized by others. It is best to avoid him for a while."
"snort!"
Guan Yu had always looked down on Mi Zhu's brother, but when he saw Mi Fang trying to save money to avoid disaster, the second brother felt displeased and snorted coldly, his face full of contempt.
Liu Bei's two younger brothers looked down on their own clan, and Mi Fang had naturally known it for a long time. His expression remained unchanged, his eyes dimmed, and he slowly walked towards Wu Jun.
Mi Fang took care of all the boating matters. The Mi family was a wealthy family in the East China Sea. The waterways were well-regulated and they knew it well. This was because the Dongwu army was short of money and came to get some money and food for tooth sacrifices.
Sure enough, the Xuzhou merchant ship was forced to stop, and a young captain, leading a dozen Soochow sailors, boarded the second brother's boat.
The captain's eyes were moving, like those of an ape, and his eyes were blinking uncontrollably. He looked so smart that if he put his tail on, he would be a monkey.
"Where did your ship come from? What is it carrying? Where is it going?"
"Now that the Cao thieves are occupying Jiangling, it is not easy for the navy here to maintain everything on the river. Every ship that comes and goes has to pay a fee to cross the river!"
"This is natural, this is natural. My business is an old one in the East China Sea. We also have dealings with Zibu Gong."
"On this trip, there is an official letter from Jiankang. This general is young but I don't know which governor is under his command?"
Mi Fang asked, with a sour merchant air. Yunchang didn't like such flattering words the most.
He also knew that his eldest brother sent him to transport Xuzhou's people's wealth and anointing, which was of vital importance. Although he was angry, he could only suppress his temper and turned his head to the side, not looking at Mi Zhu.
"I am Lu Meng and Lu Ziming. I was first the captain of the navy and then the commander of General Zhou Tai!"
"It won't work even if Jiankang pays, this is Lujiang!"
Lu Meng, the most beloved person in Soochow, the second brother in history was the biggest troublemaker. Because Fang Guang appeared in the world, he actually met Guan Yu twenty years in advance.
The second brother, Lü Meng, was born with a different temperament. Bingzhou Ranger, when he heard that this yellow-tongued kid was extorting money so unscrupulously, he was so angry that he wished he could cut Lü Meng into two pieces right here with a knife.
"It turns out it's General Ziming. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. What's in this ship? The general can go down and see for himself."
"It's windy on the river, I'm accompanying the general, and we won't give you a penny less than what you should receive!"
"You are wise, unlike that big man with a red face and a thick neck, who looks like a desperate outlaw!"
Lu Meng glared at Guan Yu, who was 1.89 meters tall, and followed Mi Fang down the cabin.
It turns out that the people of Soochow were short of money because Sun Quan wanted to use the opportunity to reorganize the army and weaken Zhou Yu's military power.
Lu Meng followed his brother-in-law Deng Dang in the army and had no backing. Sun Quan wanted to seize the military power, and the first person to bear the brunt of it was Lu Ziming.
In this world, Lu Meng's plan is just like what is recorded in history.
He had to rely on Buqu's military appearance to impress Sun Shiwan, only then could he keep Buqu in his hands, or maybe get a reward.
Lu Meng pretended to go down to the cargo hold, but did not take any bodyguards with him.
The most famous military officer in history was greedy for Mi Fang. He knew it well and rushed to Lu Meng in a few steps. A piece of gold was already thrust into the hands of the Soochow captain.
"General Lu, for a little money, I would also like to invite the general to have a drink with the man from Wu!"
"Now that the world is in chaos, which cargo ship doesn't carry some things that cannot be checked? General, please show your noble hand."
Lu Meng extorted money and silk from the river every day and recruited subordinates. He met so many merchants and children of aristocratic families from the north and south!
All in all, the man in front of me is the most comfortable to talk to.
Lü Meng, who coined the idiom "Amen under Wu", lost both his parents when he was young and was illiterate. He relied on his cunning, unrighteousness and brutality to survive in troubled times.
A man like Mi Fang who bent down at critical moments was exactly the husband that Lu Meng admired.
"It's easy to say, you are a very interesting person. The person standing on the bow outside the cabin must be the cargo owner. You look like someone from a well-known family owes him a few ounces of money!"
"If you sail like this, you will be hacked to death one day. In this world, it is better to bend down to earn food and raise your head to flatter your husband!"
"That's right, General Lu, let me say something arrogant. People in this world may only talk about the lord in their mouths and think about money in their hearts!"
"But those who seek wealth are despised by others! It is really unfair. There are so many powerful generals in the world. I am afraid no one has ever thought that the provisions of the army, the armor on the body, and the mounts under the crotch are just a copper coin for the bookkeepers.
It’s calculated with one copper coin!”
"Well said, you are an extraordinary person!"
Mi Fang, who had been with Guan Yu all the way, had suffered from the cowardice of her second brother. Today, she was talking speculatively with Lu Meng. She couldn't help but open her heart and speak her true words.
If Fang Guang were here, he would definitely exclaim and sigh. In the third century AD, the Eastern Han Dynasty version of Xie Ruolin was born in the world.
Lu Meng didn't expect that when he went out to hunt, he would meet his colleagues!
Although the man in front of him looked wretched, his few words revealed the reason why he settled down in Jiangdong.
Lu Ziming gently patted Mi Fang's shoulder to comfort this man whom he had known for only half a moment. He took out another ingot of gold from his arms and put it together with the gold Mi Fang gave him.
"These two pieces of gold, one is my salary from Jiangdong, and the other is the gold donated by you. Now put them together, can you tell which one is upright and which is downright?"
Lu Meng was indeed Mi Fang's soul mate. He opened his mouth and casually said another clear statement from Xie Ruolin.
