Invincible from the beginning of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 389 500 Silver Coins

Mi Zhu learned from Zhen Yi and fled Xuzhou.

Now Xuzhou is Cao Cao's territory.

The new governor of Xuzhou has repeatedly suppressed him.

Mi Zhu has contributed several batches of grain, but he still doesn't have much status in Xuzhou.

Fortunately, the Mi family has a very wide network of contacts in Xuzhou.

Mi Zhu abandoned a large amount of family property, and spent more than half a year secretly disposing of many of them, and then exchanged them for bank notes.

This process is very slow. Up to now, after Mi Zhu fled, there is still a large amount of real estate in Xuzhou that has not been processed.

"Brother, if Zhang Ming turns his face, we will be miserable and have nothing." Mi Fang was still very worried.

"We brought 1000 million silver bills here, and then we will give Zhang Ming 500 million. With the help of my younger sister, our family can survive." Mi Zhu said.

Mi Fang's face was full of reluctance.

Half of the property.

But Mi Zhu was very firm.

If he stays in Xuzhou, he will slowly be sucked dry by Cao Cao.

And if he went to Jingzhou to find Liu Bei, the journey would be far away, it would be difficult to operate, and the most important thing is that he would not be able to bring his property there.

Therefore, he chose Youzhou.

In fact, it was very easy to escape to Youzhou, he could go to Qingzhou by land, but for safety, Mi Zhu still chose to take the sea.

"What my little sister said in the letter is indeed true. Along the way, Youzhou has been governed very well, and when we arrive in Youzhou, we will not be able to own a lot of land, but we will also be able to continue to develop commerce. The family will rise again soon."

Mi Zhu is still very confident in his business ability.

Mi Fang had no choice but to listen to his brother.

Mi Zhu and Mi Fang really wanted to be officials, embark on official careers, and become a real family.

However, they seem to have no chance.

Zhang Ming will not give them official positions, but will not restrict their business activities.

Under Zhang Ming's rule, after the imperial examinations began, only some of those recruited by him could become officials, and this proportion decreased year by year.

Only taking the road of imperial examination is the most convenient and the easiest way to enter the officialdom.

A group of people all the way to New Peiping.

Zhang Ming did not monitor the passers-by, and this group of people did not come into Zhang Ming's sight.

Everyone finally arrived at New Peking City.

"This has changed a lot."

Mi Zhu had been here before, and had come to recruit talents on behalf of Liu Bei.

He is somewhat familiar with Beiping City, but now Beiping City has changed a lot.

Not long after entering Beiping City, Mi Zhu and the others were discovered.

Here, Zhang Ming's surveillance is relatively strict, and there are special people watching them. However, as long as they don't enter sensitive areas, they will be fine.

"I'm Mrs. Mi's older brother, please go in and report."

Mi Zhu came directly to the General's Mansion.

There was no need for Mi Zhu to conceal his identity, he went directly to the mansion of the General Protecting the Country, the soldiers dared not be careless, and immediately went in to report.

"Two brothers, you are here."

Mi Lan anxiously went out to pick them up.

The three brothers and sisters goodbye, very emotional.

"Two brothers, please come in."

Mi Lan took Mi Zhu and his family into the Palace of General Protector.

"Hurry up and inform the General Protector that my two older brothers and their family are here."

Some soldiers rushed to report to Zhang Ming.

Later, Zhang Ming received the news.

"Interesting, Mi Zhu was able to come to Youzhou."

Think about it and understand.

Zhang Ming specially arranged to meet him.

In the main hall of the General's Mansion, Zhang Ming received Mi Zhu.

"Mi Zhu, we have known each other for many years. Although there is some misunderstanding, it is not a big deal. It is really wise for you to come to Youzhou."

Mi Zhu also sighed, who would have thought that Zhang Ming, whom he was not optimistic about at the beginning, would grow into what he is now.

Today, Tao Qian has long since died, and even Yuan Shao, who was in his prime, has become ancient.

The current big man is the era of Zhang Ming and Cao Cao.

"This is a silver note of 500 million yuan. From now on, please take care of the general who protects the country."

Mi Zhu took out a large stack of bank notes.

Zhang Ming took it, put it aside and said, "It's easy to say, under my rule, as long as you abide by the law, you will naturally give me more care."

It doesn't matter how many privileges you give, but they are all from your own family, so you should give some convenience.

However, with the blessing of Zhang Ming's brother-in-law and his business talent, Mi Zhu can develop quickly.

"I'll give you a big house to live in Youzhou with peace of mind. From now on, when I take Xuzhou down, you can go back to Xuzhou if you want."

Mi Zhu doesn't dare to underestimate Zhang Ming now, it is not impossible to win Xuzhou.

Mi Zhu's family was taken care of by Zhang Ming, and they finally felt relieved.

After Mi Zhu left, Zhang Ming picked up the 500 million silver note.

"Someone paid for the road construction, this Mi family is really rich."

500 million silver coins are enough for Zhang Ming to repair this road.

At the same time, Zhang Ming will also invest in Jizhou and Xuzhou on a large scale.

At the very least, build a batch of farming tools for farmers.

Of course, Zhang Ming didn't give them directly, but received them directly if needed, and then paid a fixed amount of food to offset it in the coming year.

This can greatly improve the efficiency of farmers in reclaiming wasteland, and also allow the surplus labor at home to come out to do other things.

The land of China has entered a relatively stable state again.

Zhang Ming started the mighty road construction.

The news reached Cao Cao. Cao Cao organized all his counselors to study for several days, but failed to figure out what Zhang Ming was going to do.

Cao Cao never thought about building roads.

He is short of money to buy food now, and he still needs to pay the army.

Where does anyone have the money to build roads?

And building roads is nothing more than making the army mobilize faster. In their view, it is really unnecessary.

Few people can understand Zhang Ming's approach.

But Zhang Ming knew that building a road would bring too much profit.

Both Cao Cao and Zhang Ming were expanding. After Cao Cao returned, he began to prepare for war again.

Cao Cao invested a lot of resources in recruiting and training troops.

In this battle, he saw the gap. Zhang Ming's army was much better than theirs in terms of weapons, and the quality of their soldiers was higher than theirs.

Therefore, Cao Cao ordered that the whole army be trained.

Next time, when the war starts again, Cao Cao must catch up with Zhang Ming in terms of soldier quality.

Of course, Zhang Ming will not be stingy about investing in the army.

He asked the army to raise a lot of pigs, and the castrated pigs, in addition to the special food provided by the restaurant, the army also had meat every day.

Chen Yang was ordered to build the road, and Zhang Ming personally went to supervise it for several days, asking them to build the road with a high standard, and in the future they will be able to directly lay the foundation and pave the concrete road directly.

This road has eight lanes in the later generations, and there are some auxiliary roads on both sides. Zhang Ming and others require that a green belt must be built in the middle of the road, in order to regulate pedestrians and let them keep to the right.

With 10 people, the road will be built in sections. Zhang Ming doesn't know how long it will take to build the road.

People in the world can't understand Zhang Ming, thinking that he will go all out to explode his troops, start war after war, and then unify Kyushu.

However, Zhang Ming actually played with road repairing, which is hard to understand.
