Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 458 A Strange Gift in Return
"My son doesn't need to be sad, fate will come." Xu's mother stroked Xu Shu's forehead with one hand, but pressed the other hand on her heart. Hua Tuo's prescription was stored inside her clothes.

Xu's mother secretly invited a doctor to give her daughter-in-law a pulse, but it turned out that it was not Xiang Shi's fault. Xu Shu chose to escape from the hidden illness, so she could only find Lantian for help.

Xu's mother was in a good mood on the way home, and Xu Shu once asked curiously: "Mother is in a good mood recently, has something happy happened?"

Xu's mother smiled kindly: "I watched Miss Lu get married. Although Lu Bu's reputation is not very good, this daughter is really worth living. Isn't it a happy event now that you have both children?"

"Er indeed."

What Xu's old mother said could go around the lineage, which put a lot of pressure on the older young Xu. Fortunately, Zhuge Liang, who is about the same age, has no heirs now, so it doesn't feel so uncomfortable to share the suffering.

Lan Tian and Gao Shun sent them to the boat and were about to leave. Gao Shun suddenly opened his eyes and looked westward.

Gao Shun pointed to a ship not far away and said, "Sir, it seems to be a merchant ship from Ushei. Shall we wait a while? Maybe there will be news about Hu Ke."

"There are people coming and going on the pier, maybe there are Jiangdong or Shixie's eyes and ears, and it's not good for the Wusi brothers to be exposed. Let's go back and wait for the news." Lan Tian reminded.

Gao Shun was startled when he heard that, then he frowned and cupped his fists: "It's because I was too concerned, so I didn't think carefully."

"Let's go back first." Lan Tian waved his sleeves lightly, and walked towards the carriage when he came.

Seeing the turbulent water on the pier, ships of different sizes frequently entered and exited the port, and two men came out of the Usihei merchant ship, and they carried the large wooden box onto the carriage that had been prepared long ago.

Most of what Wu Sihei transported to Jianye was playthings and utensils, and the property sold was replaced by rice grains and meat, which were transported back to Jiaozhou. Lantian did not miss any opportunity to store food. In addition to the huge consumption of Guangzhou City itself, he had already Hoarding military rations for Guan Yu's Northern Expedition.

After dark, Wu Sihei knocked on the gate of the State Shepherd's Mansion. The doorman seemed to know that he would come, and took him directly to the apse where Lantian was.

Lan Tian sat on a chair and closed his eyes to rest his mind, while Gao Shun deduced the ongoing Ruxu water battle on the sand table next to him.

The moment he pushed the door, Gao Shun looked at the door and greeted: "You are here."

Lan Tian opened his eyes when he heard the sound, Wu Sihei clasped his fists and saluted the two, "Sir, General Gao."

"Hu Ke got married last month, didn't you stay longer? Are those gifts good?" Lan Tian asked curiously.

Wu Sihei nodded and replied: "Lieutenant Hu is articulate and quick-witted, as expected, Zhang's bride obeys him, and the Zhang family has become more enthusiastic from the beginning of being plain."

"Remind him not to be stingy with property, but to spend equal attention on the Zhang family, and secure the Zhang family with benefits, so that Hu Ke's position will be stable." Lan Tian urged.

Wu Sihei replied: "Lieutenant Hu can save you, I will remind you next time we meet."

"Did something special happen in Jiangdong recently?" Lan Tian asked.

"The generals in Jiangdong have all gone to the front line at Ruxukou. Sun Quan asked Zhang Zhao to preside over the ceremonies for Colonel Hu, and Captain Hu." Wu Sihei hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong with Hu Ke?" Gao Shun asked anxiously.

Wu Sihei lowered his head, "Lieutenant Hu returned a gift to Mr.

Gao Shun breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned and said, "Don't be surprised in the future, what's the point of returning a gift? Take it out."

"That's a person. I'll temporarily place him in the firm," Wu Sihei said.

"Why didn't he come with you?" Lan Tian looked puzzled.

One of the tasks of Hu Ke and Song Chen was to recruit academic talents for the Guangzhou Academy. Unexpectedly, there was no movement in the north, but Jiangdong opened it first.

"That man was kidnapped." Wu Sihei swallowed his saliva.

"Didn't you say that you can convince people with virtue? We are not here in Liangshan, why should we learn how to deceive Wu Yong?" Lan Tian was a little anxious when he heard it, and suddenly slipped his mouth.

Gao Shun was the first to react, "Sir, what did you say about Liangshan? Does this have anything to do with Song Chen?"

"Uh, I'm confused." Lan Tian looked sloppy.

"Lieutenant Hu said that the man has a great talent, and maybe he is what Guangzhou Academy needs, but it may not be easy to convince others with virtue." Wu Sihei continued to explain.

"Being able to bring a living person back is also considered your ability. With Sun Quan's suspicious character, there will be no one to check Jianye when he leaves Hong Kong, right?" Lan Tian couldn't figure it out.

Wu Sihei: "With the help of Lieutenant Hu's Yu's Firm to cover, Sun Quan and a group of generals have all gone to Ruxuwu. It is very convenient to send a little property to the ship."

"Won't that man make trouble on the road?" Gao Shun also had doubts on his face.

"We got him drunk in advance, then put him in a big wooden box and sent him on board, and filled him with alcohol during the rest of the stop along the way, so the journey was quite peaceful." Wu Sihei replied.

"Who did you take captive?"

"Lieutenant Hu called him Mr. Zhao. It is said that he saw him at the wedding. He is the accountant of a commercial firm in Jianye City, but the specific name will not be known at the end."

Lan Tian, ​​a person named Zhao from Jiangdong, couldn't think of it. He frowned and felt that it was difficult to ride a tiger. After all, kidnapping people is quite a low-level method. Scholars in this era pay more attention to integrity, and they need to find a way to eliminate the barriers between each other, otherwise they will become "I live in Hanying and my heart is in Wu".

Lan Tian was still thinking about how to make up for it, when suddenly a flash of inspiration came to his mind, the common plot of "hero saving the beauty" in TV dramas might be able to be used.

"I'm wronged, you go back to the firm first," Lan Tian narrated the strategy softly.

Wu Sihei listened carefully, and Lantian wanted him to be a Vietnamese businessman who was "seeking talents", and took him back to Guangzhou on the recommendation of Jiangdong Snakehead.

Watching Wu Sihei disappear into the night, Gao Shun asked suspiciously: "Wu Sihei is far less tactful than Abu, will he mess up this matter?"

"Their brothers have been in business for so many years, and they have learned some superficial skills, otherwise they would not be 'bribed' by Shi Xie. Sometimes having an honest face is also an advantage. Now they can only be dead horses as living horse doctors. Later You and I go there in person." Lan Tian spread his hands to express his helplessness.

Guangzhou City, Trade Zone, Wateryue Trading Company.

The candles flickered in the business house, reflecting several long black shadows.

The two Yue men at the door raised their hands and stared at the downcast middle-aged Confucian scholar sitting in the hall. They saw him holding the account book in his hand, flipping through it boredly, and couldn't help shaking his head while turning it over.

After all, they are barbarians of the Yue nationality, and the ledger records are messy.

He was completely sober half an hour ago. He already knew that he was kidnapped these days on the water, and he had already experienced the fear and panic. The commercial bank, the books on the counter in the commercial bank are the first to come into view.

What exactly is this place?Paper can be so easily obtained?It is really hateful to be squandered by businessmen.

"Mr. Zhao was shocked."

In doubt, Wu Sihei walked out from the back hall and saluted him very respectfully.
