Four Hundred and Eightieth Chapter Wedding
Mi Zhu pretended to be in a difficult situation. In fact, he really wanted to go to Yangzhou. It happened to be half a month since he came back, and he had already arranged for some personnel and property to go there, just in time for an inspection.
But he couldn't show it.
"Lord Zhou Mu, Zhang Yu's appetite has never been filled. We were all fooled by him last time, and the subordinates are also extremely ashamed. I really can't afford it. Why don't Master Chen or Brother Xuande Go." Mi Zhu looked at Chen Gui and said to Liu Bei.
Both Chen Gui and Liu Bei didn't want to go, Zhang Yu cannibalized people and didn't spit out his bones, so when he came back, he thought he had taken advantage of it, but in the end he was tricked by Zhang Yu again.
Like a simple trade agreement, Tao Qian and the others thought it was nothing at first, but it turned out to be such a pitfall, and it almost defeated the salt merchants in Xuzhou within a few months.
As a result, Tao Qian repeatedly persuaded Mi Zhu to let him go to Yangzhou again.
Mi Zhu declined for a while and then agreed, but it took two days before he could leave.
This time Mi Zhu will arrange for some important family members to go there, and gradually gain a firm foothold in Yangzhou and Liaodong.
Of course Zhang Yu also understands the situation in Xuzhou.
Tao Qian only estimated that Zhang Yu stole more than 100 million yuan from Xuzhou, but Zhang Yu's data is far more than that.
Because the salt alone costs nearly 200 million dollars.
Many people are rushing to buy table salt, because it is of good quality and cheap, so they want to buy as much as they can, in case there is no more in the future.
And Zhang Yu's other products also entered Xuzhou one after another.
Although tea, immortal brew, etc. have entered Xuzhou long ago, they were all high-end products at that time, and the market capacity was limited.
But this time Zhang Yu is selling a lot of low-end products, which more people can afford to buy and use.
These add up to tens of millions of dollars.
All of a sudden, Zhang Yu's money has become more abundant.
One day, Zhang Zhao came to look for Zhang Yu. He had a happy face these past few days. With money in his hand, he, the quasi-prime minister, could do a lot better.
"My lord, the autumn harvest will be in half a month, and there will be a lot of tax revenue at that time, but we have too much food.
The subordinates suggested that the common people have money to pay taxes, and those who have no money can still pay taxes with grain, and the other part of the old grain, the subordinates suggested to sell. " Zhang Zhao found Zhang Yu and said.
Now the whole of China is indeed more abundant in food, and this is because crops such as sweet potatoes and potatoes are popularized throughout China.
"If you don't sell it, save it except for the grassland peoples. If you don't have enough warehouses, you can continue to build. In addition, you can transport more to overseas bases," Zhang Yu said.
In the areas controlled by the south, the grain harvests are really bumper, and Zhang Yu's grain reserves are indeed sufficient, but Zhang Yu still does not plan to sell grain.
However, he agreed with Zhang Zhao's proposal to allow the people to pay taxes with money.
Some people have money in their hands, and it is indeed much more convenient for them to pay taxes with money.
Zhang Yu knew that the population would continue to skyrocket, and there was no harm in saving more food.
Then Zhang Zhao said, "My lord, the wedding date has been set, and it will be three months later. It will already be winter, but the climate here is still relatively warm, so it is completely in time to send the invitation quickly."
Zhang Yu nodded. He has been preparing for more than a month, and there will be another three months. It is completely in time. By then, the army will also be trained.
"I didn't have money before, but now I have money, I want to form 30,000 heavy infantry, let Gao Shun command, and deter the princes." Zhang Yu said.
This time Zhang Zhao was not stingy and agreed immediately.
One is that the autumn harvest will be harvested immediately, and there will be money at that time, and the other is that there is a heavy infantry that can withstand the impact of the enemy, which is too important for the territory.
Especially in the Jiangdong area, there is no danger to defend except the natural danger of the Yangtze River, and there is not even a strong city that can be defended.
If the enemy breaks through the natural danger of the Yangtze River, they will fall into a cruel and bitter battle.
In fact, Gao Shun's camp is the heavy infantry, but the scale was too small before. After all, the equipment of the heavy infantry is too expensive and the requirements for soldiers are too high.
But these problems are not a problem here in Jiangdong. There are tens of millions of people to choose from, and Zhang Yu's army is well-nourished, so it is no problem to choose 30,000 qualified soldiers.
After accepting the order, Gao Shun began to select soldiers from the whole army, and at the same time Zhang Yu's arsenal also began to forge heavy equipment.
In order to speed up, Zhang Yu had to spend millions of points in exchange for some forging machines.
The wedding date has been fixed, and Zhang Yu has met Cai Yan a few times recently, and Cai Yan has grown into a decent and generous girl, with a bookish air about her, which Zhang Yu's wives don't have.
Although Xiang Xin's talent is also outstanding, she just doesn't have that indifferent and noble temperament.
Xiang Xin is like a girl next door, very cute.
After confirming the wedding date with Zhang Yu, Zhang Zhao sent out the prepared invitation.
Thousands of invitations were sent out this time.
For example, in Xuzhou recently, all the high-level officials in Xuzhou were sent, as well as big and small families.
In addition, there are some celebrities, regardless of their origin, as long as they are famous, they will be sent.
Whether they come or not is one thing.
Zhang Yu even gave a copy to Yuan Shaona.
Not only that, Zhang Yu also invited everyone in the world.
Along with the invitation, there is a recruitment order.
Zhang Yu had already promulgated the recruitment order before, and the effect was not bad. Hundreds of talents, big and small, came to apply for the job.
Some went into the army and became captains of the Centuries, and their highest ranks reached those of the Thousands.
Some people can still go up, the potential is good, but military merit is needed.
High ability is one thing, Zhang Yu can give a higher position, but to continue to rise, you must have solid military achievements.
The civil service is also good, the highest is already the post of county magistrate.
The recruiting order worked well, and as Zhang Yu became more famous this time, he had to follow Cai Yong's name and invite heroes from all over the world to come again.
In the name of a wedding, many people would think of just going to see it, but it doesn't matter if you look at it, Zhang Yu is sure to keep some of them.
The Jiangdong area is operating efficiently.
The princes who were also in Yangzhou were the first to receive the invitation.
"This Zhang Yu is really lecherous. He already has several wives, and he wants to marry a wife in such a high-profile way." Yuan Shu threw the invitation aside, he didn't want to go at all.
At this time, Huang Ren, who had been with him for more than a year, said, "My lord, my subordinates have also received Zhang Yu's invitation."
This Huang Ren ran with soldiers and horses all the time, but he fulfilled his title of famous general.
In the final battle, there was no such thing as him retreating safely with a large group of troops.
This Huang Ren went out for a circle, fled all the way, from 10,000 soldiers to 15,000 soldiers, finally abandoned the city and fled, and then took 20,000 soldiers to join Yuan Shu and became an important member of Yuan Shu's subordinates. general.
"It's interesting, it seems that Zhang Yu is planning to make something big again."
Out of feelings for the enemy, Yuan Shu felt that Zhang Yu was going to make a big deal, and Yuan Shu planned to send people to participate at this time.
