Chapter 548

"You are very good at disguising now." Lan Tian couldn't help but praise.

Song Chen scratched his head and smiled, "It's all these years of experience, it will be much more convenient to do things."

"That's right, the core staff all know how to disguise." Lan Tian nodded affirmatively, and then asked, "Has there been any new news from Hu Ke?"

Song Chen shook his head and replied, "Not yet. I have already sent people to investigate. Jianye's frequent departures from the port for grain transport have occupied the space for merchant ships to enter and exit. It should be available after a while."

Lan Tian asked, "The grain ship is going to Ruxu?"

Song Chen nodded lightly: "Yes."

Lan Tian listened with a solemn expression, and continued to ask: "Notify me as soon as there is any news, and how is the Jiaozhou Chamber of Commerce recently? Is there any news about the rats in the city?"

"The mice have been very active recently, but the things we can touch are what we want to show them, but there are two new things that I want to report to you." Song Chen followed Lan Tian's words and replied.

"what's the situation?"

"They recently gave up buying furniture, fruits and other products, and instead hoarded a lot of rice and grain to transport away, but I have already informed Panyu Ling Yaoqi that the grain ship was temporarily trapped in Panyu on the grounds that those ships were faulty. In the harbor, those rats are moving around, if there is no special reason, I'm afraid County Magistrate Yao won't last long." Song Chen answered truthfully.

Lan Tian was very satisfied with Song Chen's behavior, and he immediately gave a reason: "It's hard to find a special reason? Didn't Jianye Port restrict the entry and exit of merchant ships? We can borrow it, and Jiaozhou also needs to transport grain to support General Guan's fight." Fancheng, when the war is won and when will it be released.

In addition, local merchants were notified to prohibit large-scale grain trading. This is a strategic material similar to weapons. Jiangdong can buy agate, ivory, fruit, tables, chairs and benches from us, but weapons, grain, and ore are not acceptable. "

"I understand. All resources related to war will not be sold. It's just that the purchase price given by these rats is too high. It's hard for shopkeepers to resist the temptation, so they simply caught these rats." Song Chen looked helpless.

Lan Tian sneered: "The grain bought at a high price by the rats will be confiscated in the public warehouse in the end, but now is not the time to collect the net to catch the rats, do you have any questions?"

"It's still related to these rats. During this period of time, in addition to buying food, they also went to the fields and countryside, and recruited some lazy people from the countryside under the guise of hiring followers at high prices. Do you want to intervene?" Song Chen continued.

"Wait a little longer, they haven't violated the law after all, but they can't let down their vigilance, and report the situation immediately." Lan Tian listened to his heart and said, good guy, isn't this the business of the smugglers of later generations?Jiang Dong's detailed work is really clever.

"Wei." Song Chen cupped his fists.

"In addition to the internal affairs of Jiaozhou, it is necessary to select capable personnel to travel to and from Jingzhou, and pay special attention to the situation of the police and Jiangling." Lan Tian continued to order.

Song Chen nodded, "I can save it. General Guan sent troops to Fancheng. Mister is worried about Jiangdong."

Lan Tian snorted coldly: "Don't look at the calm on the surface, but those mice represent the real Jiangdong, and there is no good fart behind their backs."

Song Chen has traveled all over the years, living in the turbulent waves, and he is used to those intrigues. There are no pure friends in the world, only inexhaustible benefits. To be able to work with a high-quality monarch like Liu Bei and a forward-thinking boss like Lan Tian is already. It is luck in troubled times.

Sha Moke was ordered to go to Longchuan to suppress the rebellion. Everyone thought that the process was not only smooth, but also that it would not take too long, but after more than ten days, there was no success.

Lan Tian was worried and sent scouts to investigate. It turned out that the Yue people who broke into Longchuan were very cunning, and they didn't face the barbarians of Shamoko at all. As soon as the officers and soldiers arrived, the Yue people scattered and fled into the mountains. Once the officers and soldiers withdrew, they were like hyenas. come out.

After being provoked a few times, Shamoke was about to lead troops into the mountains to conquer, but was finally stopped by Tan Dingzhou's persuasion, and stationed Wuxi barbarians on the banks of the Longchuan River, passively confronting the Yue people.

When the news of Longchuan came back to Guangzhou, not only Lantian, Jiang Wan and others were shocked, but even the guest Zhang Fei couldn't help but make fun of him: "Ziyu, you learned the art of war in the martial arts hall, didn't you learn it from the Yue people?"

"It's absolutely impossible. Mister's wisdom is comparable to those of Shanyue people?" Gao Shun hurriedly turned back.

Lan Tian frowned: "Everyone has unique wisdom. There should be some extremely intelligent people among the Shanyue people, but the actions of these Yue people are unusual. Fortunately, General Sha didn't go into the mountain to pester him."

A local rebellion was not a major event in that era. As a guest, Fazheng should not have interfered, but Lan Tian owed him a life-saving grace, so he reminded him: "General Lan, Yide has a lot of experience in Wudu, so don't let him Take a hard walk?"

"Eh, it's not impossible." Zhang Feixin said that I was a guest, and I went to work in the mountains before my butt was hot?

"Don't be in a hurry, let's talk about it after understanding the matter clearly." Lan Tian waved his hand lightly.

After all, Lan Tian was Jiaozhou Shepherd and General Empress, Fazheng stopped trying to persuade him when he said this, and just as everyone in the hall was whispering, Lan Yuan rushed in anxiously.

"Father, Guiyang"

Lan Yuan seemed very impatient when he was walking, Lan Tian quickly stopped him and said: "For the sake of generals, you must calm down. Only when Mount Tai collapses in front of you and your face does not change, can you take on important responsibilities. What's the point of being so eager? Something is wrong. You speak slowly."

"Prefect Xi sent people to ask for instructions. Wang Jin, the bandit who is entrenched in Guiyang and Zhenyang counties, gathered together to make a riot. Because the number of bandits was three to 4000, he wanted to transfer the garrisons in You County and Chaling back to fight the rebellion. I don't know who his father is. Meaning." Lan Yuan replied.

Before Lan Tian could answer, Zhang Fei began to talk to himself: "Are there any bandits in these two places again? When my eldest brother was stationed in Chen County, I and Zhuge's army division once conquered them. I didn't expect that after so many years, there would be a resurgence."

"Sir, something is wrong"

While Lan Tian was still thinking about it, another daredevil Gao Yuan also broke in.

"What's the matter?" Lan Tian frowned.

Gao Yuan looked at the people around him in bewilderment. He raised his head and replied, "There are rumors in Lingling that Liu Zhang colluded with Cao Cao in order to rebel. Prefect Hao sent someone to ask whether he should be arrested and interrogated."

When Zhang Fei heard that Liu Zhang was plotting rebellion, he jumped up against the case and shouted, "My elder brother is not mean to him, how dare this fellow rebel? Ziyu, I will deal with him for you."

At this time, it was the frost of the 24 solar terms, and the sun in the sky of Jiaozhou was no longer so fierce. Lantian called everyone together to taste sweet-scented osmanthus wine. The two news were like stones thrown into a pond, directly disrupting the tranquility of autumn.

The news of Xi Zhen and Hao Pu seemed to be an appointment. Liu Zhang's rebellion and Wang Jin's rebellion were two unrelated things getting together. When contacting the Yue people in Longchuan County, Lan Tian instinctively felt that there was a conspiracy.

"Ziyu, I didn't expect you to be in such a mess under your rule." Seeing that Lan Tian ignored him, Zhang Fei laughed and joked with everyone.

"Everyone, I'll drink the sweet-scented osmanthus brew later, please move to the combat hall." After speaking, Lan Tian stood up without any expression on his face.
