Chapter 422 Gao Rou
Lu Cui just passed by the Binshui and heard that Jiang Gan was in Chenliu. He was surprised. After a moment of inquiry, he knew Jiang Gan’s residence and learned that Jiang Gan had been here for many days. He also lived there. He wanted to live next door with Jiang Gan, but the postmaster told him that Jiang Gan had many entourages and lived alone in the same courtyard. The prefect's office had taken care of him. Without the permission of the prefect's office, no one could disturb him.
Lu Cui was envious and had to find a room to settle down first, and then sent someone to wait in the yard. It was not until midnight that Jiang Gan came back. The person who sent him back was the clerk of the prefect's mansion, and he looked very polite. When Lu Cui heard the news, he happened to see a familiar back. He hurried over from the small door and stopped the man in the corner.
"Wen Hui, why are you here?"
Gao Rou was on the way, but was startled by Lu Cui who suddenly rushed out. Subconsciously pressed the hilt of the knife around her waist. Wei Xun, who was beside him, snatched a step, protected him, unsheathed his sword, and put it on Lu Cui's neck. Lu Cui was so scared that his hair stood up and said quickly: "Wen Hui, it's me."
Gao Rou looked closely and saw that it was Lu Cui. She couldn't help but laugh and pushed the Wei away and hit the stone with an egg. "Lu Wenmo, why are you here? Aren't you guarding Xiangyi with the lieutenant Cao?"
Lu Cui smiled proudly. "I just joined the shogunate of Yuan Envoy."
The smile on Gao Rou's face suddenly stopped and then returned to normal. He looked around and signaled Wei Xun to pay attention to it. He pulled Lu Cui aside. He bowed his hand to congratulate Lu Cui first, and then asked Lu Cui what he wanted. Lu Cui was proud of his longing and envious of his friends. Without waiting for Gao Rou to ask in detail, he told Gao Rou all the future and the end of the future.
After hearing this, Gao Rou congratulated Lu Cui again. "Are you here to find Jiang Ziyi?"
"Yes, I have met him and am planning to recommend him in front of Yuan Envoy."
"So, you haven't recommended him yet?"
Lu Cui felt a little embarrassed. "Time is too tight, and Yuan Envoy has a lot of official duties, so he has not had time to say it."
"Then are you going to Yingchuan to meet Sun in confrontation?"
"It's. Wenhui, I'll ask you about something. How much does Zhang Fujun buy from Sun to ask for rebellion? What's the price?"
Gao Rou shook her head and chuckled softly, "Wen Mok, I am just a minor official, and I am here and there. How could I know these things? Since you are familiar with Jiang Ziyi, why not ask him? You have such a good relationship, he will definitely not hide it from you. You have met Sun Que, but he doesn't hold a grudge against you. Didn't you answer his invitation? I heard that he sent someone to come and invite you, but you refused to go."
Lu Cui smiled proudly. "In times of trouble, it is not only the king who chooses ministers, but also the ministers who choose the king. Although Sun Huigui is good at fighting, he can only guard one side and it is difficult to achieve great things. How can I hold him in him? However, although Sun Huigui is young, he is a little arrogant. Not only does he have no complaints to me, but he is very polite. He also gave me some new paper, but unfortunately he has never brought it with him, otherwise he would have given it to you."
Gao Rou was amazed. "Wen Mok is so talented that it is really enviable. Looking ahead, suddenly behind, it is beyond reach."
Lu Cui laughed out loud and patted Gao Rou's arm. "I advised you not to learn any law at the beginning, but you didn't listen. What's the matter now? Wen Hui, it's not too late to repair the sheep, and it's still time. It's getting late, and I still have something to do, so I won't tell you. Next time I come back, we'll get together."
"Okay, okay." Gao Rou bowed his hand and sent Lu Cui away. Lu Cui waved his hand, raised his head and chest, and walked away with a meteor, quickly disappeared into the darkness. Wei Xun spitted, although he said nothing, his disdain was obvious. The humble smile on Gao Rou's face gradually dissipated, and she sighed silently, and walked forward.
Wei Xun followed. "Wenhui, don't listen to him. Your elder brother is the nephew of Alliance Leader Yuan. If you are willing to go, can Yuan Jun still treat you poorly? Isn't it better than this person who is fickle?"
Gao Rou walked for a while and said softly: "Brother Wei, you don't know that Alliance Leader Yuan is the leader of the party, and the party members have never had any good feelings for the grammatical officials. I went to Hebei just to avoid disaster, not to seek wealth. Chenliu is a place of four battles, and all forces gather here. The war is about to break out, so you can't stay for a long time."
Wei Xun looked at Gao Rou with sympathy and sighed. "If it weren't for Gao's surname, it would be best if you go to Sun to seek rebellion. I heard that Guo Jia from the Guo family in Yangdi is now his confidant. The Du family in Guanzhong became the governor of Jingzhou as soon as he met him. Rong met others."
"This is everyone's life, don't force it." Gao Rou walked for a while and said, "Brother Wei, you can go. Although Zhang Fujun is eager for justice, the famous scholars are too ruthless, and it is difficult to notice you. Sun's rebellion is not favored by famous scholars, but instead likes to promote talents from the ranks. If you go to him, you will definitely have the opportunity to play."
Wei Xun looked around and chuckled, "I'm not hiding Wen Hui, I'm just thinking."

Lu Cui returned to the post house and came to Jiang Gan's yard to ask for a meeting. Seeing Lu Cui, Jiang Gan was surprised and happy, and quickly welcomed Lu Cui to the hall and welcomed him warmly. Lu Cui was not polite and asked about the deal between Sun Ce and Zhang Miao directly.
Jiang Gan's eyes rolled. "Envoy Yuan wants to buy it, too?"
"The war is imminent, and of course some good weapons are needed."
Jiang Gan smacked his lips in a dilemma, but didn't say anything. Lu Cui felt a little upset when he saw it. Of course, he knew that this task was not easy to do. Yuan Tan did not say it clearly, but he went to Chenliu and did not enter the city, which was obviously a estrangement from Zhang Miao. When he learned that Zhang Miao and Sun Ce were dealing with Sun Ce, he also wanted to deal with Sun Ce, and the more he would be better, so he naturally had to compete with Zhang Miao for Sun Ce's support. Jiang Gan was embarrassed, so his task might not be completed.
"Ziyi, is there any difficulty?"
"Wen Mok, you missed the opportunity." Jiang Gan said regretfully: "If you spoke last time, there would be no problem at all. Now, let alone a thousand mouthfuls, two thousand mouthfuls, there would be no mouthfuls."
Lu Cui was not in a hurry. He had expected that Jiang Gan would raise the price. He picked up a glass of water, took a sip, and swallowed it slowly. A smile appeared on his face. "Ziyi, I want to ask you, is it Zhang Mengzhuoqiang or Yuan Junqiang?"
"It goes without saying that of course Yuan Jun is stronger."
"Since that's the case, why would you rather trade with Zhang Mengzhuo but not with Yuan Envoy?"
Jiang Gan spread his hands and smiled bitterly. "I don't want to, but I can't. Wen Mok, I'm going to hide it from you. Sun Teng Ni now has shortage of food. If there is a knife to sell, he has no reason not to sell it. But now there is really no, not a bite. Let me tell you what to do. Those thousand knives are backup weapons in Nanyang Arsenal. Once these knives are sold, we will not even have to supplement them once the war occurs."
Lu Cui looked at Jiang Gan carefully and felt uneasy. Jiang Gan didn't look like he was lying, and Sun Ce might really have no extra knife to sell. What should I do? I patted my chest in front of Yuan Envoy and made a promise, so I couldn't go back empty-handed.
"Ziyi, is there no other way?"
"If you want something else, I'm very welcome. I don't have a knife." Jiang Gan was determined and had no room for bargaining.
Lu Cui scratched his head and had to say, "Then... what else do you have to sell?"
