Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 397 Negotiating Again 2
After the singer performed the dance, everyone was discussing business again, and Guo Jia happily chatted and spanked with everyone.Everyone knew in their hearts that these things were actually just a few words on everyone's lips. If they really wanted to be fulfilled, they would have to be nodded by the person in Beijiang.

Of course, this does not mean that Guo Jia has no decision-making power. The key is that even if Guo Jia can decide these matters, he cannot agree to others. No matter what, he has to use Gongsun Xu as a shield. The key is that the conditions have not been negotiated, otherwise Guo Jia Why would you want to waste time with them?

An hour later, everyone had nothing to talk about in ordinary business, everything that should be said was said, and everything that should be explained was clearly explained. Guo Jia really didn't want to waste time with these people.

As for Guo Tu, he was unusually quiet today, and he didn't know whether Gan Ning scared him too much last night, or he had other plots in his heart.

Although everyone noticed Guo Tu's abnormality, they didn't pay much attention to it. After all, Guo Tu said that he was sick, so such an abnormal behavior did not make people suspicious.What others didn't know was that Guo Tu was waiting for help at this time. He had been busy for so long all morning, and all he wanted was to ask Yuan Shao for help. Anyway, he knew that Guo Jia and the others couldn't be dealt with by himself.

After talking about trivial matters, Guo Jia stood up and bowed his hands to Han Fu and said, "Lord Zhou Mu, now my lord has taken down the Hetao, and Megatron's northern grasslands, Youzhou, and Bingzhou have joined together as one for our great Han Dynasty. Jiang Anding, I am afraid there are some things that need to be discussed with adults."

"Oh? What's the matter? Jizhou is also in the north anyway. If Youzhou or Jizhou needs my support, I don't mind." Han Fu replied with a smile.

Guo Jia still can't figure out how much sincerity is in Han Fu's words for the time being, but it doesn't matter, as long as he wants the territory he wants from him.

"Your Excellency also knows that there are more than one million refugees in our Bingzhou. Bingzhou has to support the general's Northern Expedition and appease the refugees. It is impossible to rely solely on Bingzhou's financial resources." Guo Jia explained slowly. : "Fortunately, the Northern Expedition did not last long and did not cause too much damage to Bingzhou.

However, adults should know that the last time the Black Mountain Army invaded the territory, Jizhou, Bingzhou, and Youzhou suffered military disasters one after another. My lord led the army thousands of miles to fight back, and finally took down the Black Mountain Army that had been entrenched in Montenegro for many years. But because of this, my family The lord is also shouldering the important task of resettling millions of refugees in Montenegro.

My lord, you are an expert in internal affairs. You must have been able to understand the current pressure on Bingzhou from these data. Youzhou is a place of bitter cold, and you can't give Bingzhou much help at all. Going down the Hetao, but without a year or two, the refugees would not be able to migrate there.

Because of this matter, not only my lord, but even His Majesty are having trouble sleeping and eating.These refugees are all my Han people. Unfortunately, they are all homeless now. They came to northern Xinjiang for nothing more than trying to live in peace and have a good food and clothing.

But no matter how hard my lord works, it is impossible to resettle more than 200 million refugees at once.My lord, for the sake of these refugees, my lord has no choice but to turn to you for help. In this world, only you can help these people. "

"Ah? This, is the matter so serious? The general has already taken the Hetao, so the migration of the refugees can start? Why are you still..." Han Fu seemed a little hesitant in his heart, because he didn't know I understand that Guo Jia is thinking about what he is asking for help.

After a while, Han Fu seemed to have finally figured something out, he sighed and said: "Well, let's do it, I still have a lot of food in Jizhou, and these refugees are my big Han people, how can I see death If you don’t save them, I’ll keep some of the food in reserve for emergencies, and the rest will be donated to Beijiang. Look how good this is.”

As soon as Han Fu finished speaking, he heard several voices replying: "No, my lord, this is absolutely impossible."

Not only people like Guo Tu, but even Xin Ping's faction are now standing up to oppose it.The food stored in Jizhou is not a small amount. If it is really donated to Beijiang in this way, it will be worth it. Basically, it will be enough for most of the refugees to live until the beginning of spring.

Facing the opposition from his subordinates, Han Fu was also in a dilemma. After all, this matter was of great importance. How could he just give the food stored in Jizhou to others like this? But Han Fu felt that if he didn’t do this, he might not be able to find another solution. The solution, after all, Gongsun Xu has already spoken, so should Han Fu just refuse?How can you continue to do business after that?

Furthermore, Han Fu also knew in his heart that if Gongsun Xu spoke up, it would definitely not be a small sum. Didn't you see that Guo Jia carried His Majesty out?Is it possible to wait until your Majesty's edict to force Jizhou to donate food, then it will not look good.

Guo Tu can't sit still anymore, even if he wants to play dumb, but now he really can't play anymore, at this time, he is discussing with other people how to deal with this matter.

Seeing that everyone was against it, Guo Jia stood up with a sigh and said: "Hey, Mr. Zhou Mu, Your Majesty has mentioned your kindness and generosity many times. For these refugees, His Majesty is also very troubled. If you really feel embarrassed, we can Think of other ways, hey, the suffering of refugees is unimaginable to others.

My lord misses the people all over the world. He doesn't want to see a commoner starve to death in the northern border, so he hastily made the Northern Expedition. My lord is also a courtier of the Han Dynasty, so please don't shirk this responsibility. "

"It's natural, the refugees are also my people, how can I stand by and watch." Han Fu replied with embarrassment: "Besides, the general is worried about the world, how can I be indifferent as an elder, how about this, this matter How about we think about the long-term plan, you see, this,,,,,, "

When Han Fu said this, he was actually asking his subordinates. Guo Tu and others also felt that they should make some promises and make some concessions, otherwise they would be underestimated by Guo Jia.

After negotiating the time for half a stick of incense, Guo Tu stood up and said to Guo Jia: "Master Messenger, the food stock in Jizhou is the result of the hard work of the people of Jizhou. If it is given to Beijiang like this, it may be wrong. I, the people of Jizhou, are not responsible. If you say yes, you must be able to understand us.

However, if we say that Jizhou does not provide assistance, it is our fault. After all, Bingzhou and Jizhou are neighbors. If we do not lend a helping hand, then most of these refugees will starve to death. This is not what we want to see.

This incident made us very embarrassed. As Jizhou officials, we should start from the interests of Jizhou, and then consider other places. Regarding this point, please forgive me, if your majesty or the general blame it If so, we can only bear this responsibility.

We can't let go of the food storage in Jizhou, and my master is also very embarrassed. I think, otherwise, except for the storage of food in Jizhou, other conditions and conditions can be raised at will, and we can continue to do business, but we really can't get the food. How much is it? After all, Jizhou has a large population, and no one can guarantee whether there will be any natural or man-made disasters.

As parents and officials of one party, we can't do things like tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall. You have to be responsible for the refugees, but we are also responsible for the people of Jizhou. Please forgive me for this point.

It's not that we are unwilling to extend a helping hand, but because I, Jizhou, also have unspeakable difficulties.You see, Master Messenger, how about changing to other conditions?We must try our best to be satisfied, as long as it does not involve food storage, everything else is easy to talk about. "

Guo Tu repeated these few words over and over again, nothing more than to express a meaning: If you want food, there is no way. You really can’t blame us for this matter. Even if we have extra food, why should we give it to you.

Hearing Guo Tu's words, Han Fu felt a little embarrassed now. After all, this was a direct rejection of Guo Jia's request. Guo Jia looked at Han Fu, and finally said, "That's it, hey, whatever, blame it. Blame these refugees for not having such a good life, I and the state officials can only try to save as many people as possible, hey."

Guo Jia sighed here, and Han Fu's complexion was not good. This is the second time His Majesty and the General have turned to him for help. The matter of transferring him to the court mentioned yesterday has been rejected by his subordinates , Although they didn't say it clearly, Guo Tu and the others clearly wouldn't let go.

Fortunately, this matter was rejected by Guo Tu and others again, and Han Fu was asked to put his face on where to put it. After all, he is the master of Jizhou. Besides, His Majesty and the General asked him twice for help. , I don't agree to it here, what will happen if it gets out.

After a long time, Han Fu said: "Feng Xiao, why don't you think of other ways, see if I, Jizhou, can give me other help, everyone has something to talk about, don't hurt the peace, no.

Jizhou and Beijiang will become good neighbors forever, talk about everything, don't worry, don't worry.All of you here are wise people. If you discuss and discuss together, there must be a way to get the best of both worlds. "

Guo Jia nodded, and then he finally said: "Well, this matter is really embarrassing for Master Zhou, well, hey. Since the matter of grain storage is not easy to discuss, let's talk about something else."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They were still worried that Guo Jia would get stuck on the horses and military supplies because of this incident. Fortunately, Guo Jia didn't have this intention now, which couldn't be better.

Guo Jia looked at everyone calmly, no one knew what he was thinking, maybe Guo Jia was angry now.

When Guo Jia's eyes swept over Guo Tu, Guo Tu couldn't help shivering, he already felt the meaning contained in Guo Jia's eyes.Finally, Guo Tu seemed to be unable to bear it any longer. He looked up at Guo Jia, and saw that Guo Jia was still looking at him, and even Gan Ning was staring at him with a sneer.

Guo Tu panicked. From his point of view, Guo Jia was holding a grudge, and he clearly wanted to take revenge. Now, Guo Tu felt that he had stabbed a hornet's nest, and Guo Jia probably wanted to take revenge on himself.
