Chapter 1200 A penny beats a hero
Outside the city of Runan, a man and a woman stand on horses. The man is handsome and mighty, while the woman is delicate and versatile. The horses beside them are extremely handsome, which attracts the people who enter and leave the city to look sideways, and can't help admiring what a pair of gods are. middle man.

It's a pity that these two immortal figures who seemed to be ignorant of other people's fireworks were stopped by a small city gate order.

"The Ma family has been governed by your sister Yueer and Fushou for more than a year. The Ma family business under Zhang Yupan, Li Zihao in Jinyang, and Zhen Yan in Weijun have all recovered to [-]% to [-]% of what they were two years ago. Guan Shanxue Even if you have extended your business outside the Western Regions, you don't even have four copper coins to enter the city?"

Faced with Diao Chan's accusation, Ma Chao felt ashamed.Indeed, as Diao Chan said, after being crowned King Yong, agriculture under Ma Chaozhi's rule will not improve much in the short term.As a result, he focused his development on business in the first year.Although war is a very expensive and loss-making business, fortunately it only burns strategic materials, such as tea, cement, bricks, glass, silk and other non-strategic materials, the impact is not great.

As soon as the war ended, the horse-drawn carriages of several businesses in the southeast, northwest, and north of Ma's house were fully operational.Even in order to ensure the smooth flow of commercial routes, Ma Chao also proposed the idea of ​​establishing a logistics station and vigorously promoted it.This station has various functions such as postal service, expressway service area, cargo transfer station, logistics center, espionage, etc., and uses the huge network of commercial tentacles to closely connect the vast territory of the Ma family as a whole.Later, this emerging thing that broke away from the system of the Han Dynasty gradually extended its tentacles to the political field, and regularly reported to Ma Chao from bottom to top the progress of the implementation of the New Deal under the rule of various places, folk customs, rainy weather, official assessment, etc. intelligence.Especially in Hebei and Hebei, because of the existence of post stations, the entire shadow system began to gain a firm foothold, and began to pull out Jing'an Cao's stronghold spies layer by layer.

After revitalizing the economy under the entire rule, Ma Chao has begun to be dissatisfied with the exchange with the nomadic peoples in northern Serbia.Under the leadership of the experienced butler Guan Shanxue, the Ma family started another "hollowing out" activity since Zhang Qian.When he returned at the end of the year, Guan Shanxue told Ma Chao that this time he went westward, his footprints would cover Qiuci, Yuzhi, Kangju, Wusun, Shule, Yuezhi, Shanshan, Cheshi and other great countries in the Western Regions. After returning a large amount of property, everyone in the caravan beamed with joy from ear to ear.

Since then, the east and west markets of Chang'an City have been full of prosperity, and wine from the Western Regions, Dawan horses, various gemstones, and beautiful jade that have not been seen for many years have reappeared in the market.Of course, the business tax has also begun to increase significantly.Ma Chao was so happy that he immediately rewarded Guan Shanxue, and at the same time allowed Guan Shanxue to go to the Western Regions again after a fat year.

Therefore, although the Ma family did not seem to have made much progress this year, they have done quite well in terms of making a fortune silently.Compared with Cao Cao, who sent troops to Qingzhou to raise military expenses, and had to organize a professional tomb robbery team and make money from the dead, the Ma family played with dignity, and the result can be said to be very rich.

But although the entire Ma family is rich, Ma Chao never brings money with him when he goes out.This time he sneaked out without any accompanying guards, so naturally he didn't even have a ringing copper coin on him.And Diao Chan is obviously not a good daughter-in-law who is diligent in housekeeping, and she still doesn't have any money on her body.

Everyone who enters the city has to pay two copper coins. Poor Ma Chao and Diao Chan, two big figures who have left a great reputation in history, may be directing a tragedy of Qin Qiong selling horses this time.

"Cicada, do you want to sell the elephant dragon or the red rabbit?" Ma Chao cried. He came to Runan this time because he wanted to visit Runan County secretly for a year under Liu Bei's development.So, for the time being, he didn't want to reveal his identity yet—of course, if Liu Bei knew that he couldn't enter the city because he had no money, then he, King Yong, would be too shabby.

Before Diao Chan could answer, Xianglong sneezed hard and glanced dissatisfiedly—it was not stupid, knowing that even if Ma Chao had ten guts, he wouldn't dare to touch Chitu...

But just this sneeze attracted one person's attention.Ma Chao was trying to appease Xianglong when he suddenly heard someone say: "This horse is a famous horse in Dawan. It travels thousands of miles every day and has a pure blood. Do you really want to part with it?"

Ma Chao looked up and saw that the man was also dressed as a general with twenty or thirty guards behind him, so he knew that his identity might be exposed.But looking carefully at the general, Ma Chao saw that the man who spoke was 27 or [-] years old, about [-] feet [-] inches tall, with a fair face and dignified dignity.Especially his arms are very long. When Ma Chao took a careful look at his index finger and saw that there were calluses on the two-inch knuckles, he decided that this person was a man with ape arms and a good shooter.

"What I just said as a joke, this horse and I share life and death, share weal and woe, how can we sincerely let go?" Although it can be seen that this is an admiral, but meeting by chance and wearing Liu Beijun's standard armor, Ma Chao will never be with him The mind of chatting.

But Ma Chao wanted to hide, but the man suddenly got off his horse, knelt down on the ground, clasped his fists and said, "Chen Dao, the captain of the emperor's tent begging for thieves, pay homage to King Yong Qiansui!"

Chen Dao's behavior immediately caused a commotion in front of the city gate.Especially the city gate order that didn't pay attention to Ma Chao before, his face turned pale with fright, followed by the soldiers behind Chen Dao and fell to his knees, saying 'King Yong, spare his life'.

As soon as the soldiers knelt down, the civilians who didn't know what happened also knelt down one after another.Seeing this, Ma Chao couldn't help but smile wryly: "Chen Dao, Uncle Chen..."

From Chen to Chen Shuzhi, he became Liu Bei's subordinate when Liu Bei was in Yuzhou, and moved to the Quartet with Liu Bei. His name is often inferior to Zhao Yun, and they are all famous for their loyalty and bravery.During the period of the Empress Dominion of Shu, Chen Daoguan went to General Zhengxi, named Tinghou, succeeded Li Yan in guarding Yong'an, and died of illness in office.Later generations praised Chen Dao for "conquering the west to be loyal and conquering, to select soldiers at the same time, and to be a fierce general!"

Ma Chao never expected that he would meet such a courageous and resourceful person at his first stop in Runan.It's a pity that Chen Dao has joined Liu Bei, which made Ma Chao feel a little disappointed.However, he still excused everyone, and personally helped Chen to get up.

As for Chen Dao being able to recognize his identity, Ma Chao didn't have the slightest bit of annoyance.After all, the red rabbit behind Diaochan is too eye-catching.In the whole world, the only person who can own a red rabbit and is not the age of Lu Bu's uncle is himself.But when he thought that he would have to explain the reason why he crossed the city and did not enter later, Ma Chao could only smile wryly.

"This subordinate was ordered to come to the city gate to welcome Master Zirou into the mansion, but he didn't expect to meet His Royal Highness Yong Wang. It was really a surprise." Seeing that Ma Chao had no pretensions to help himself up, Chen Dao couldn't help thinking of his purpose for coming to the city gate. tell.

Only then did Ma Chao realize that the soldiers behind Chen Dao were all guards of honor.Then his eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "Since Master Kuai is coming, I will wait with General Chen." After saying this, Ma Chao deliberately glanced at Diao Chan.

Diao Chan naturally knew what Ma Chao meant. Although it was undeniable that Ma Chao came to Runan definitely because he wanted to meet his former heroine, but at the same time Diao Chan also knew that the future trend of the world should be in Jingzhou.When Ma Chao came to Runan in person, it must be said that he did not have this consideration.However, forgiveness is forgiveness, but since I followed this time, I naturally had a plan in mind, so I just gave Ma Chao a blank look, ignoring his little cleverness.

And just as Ma Chao's bitter face was about to fortify the bitter gourd, a burst of smoke and dust suddenly appeared outside the city gate.Then came an exclamation.Looking closely, Ma Chao saw a single-shaft carriage rushing towards him, with dozens of cavalry behind him chasing closely.And the war horse was already frightened, seeing that Chen Dao had already set up a battle formation.The coachman was terrified and shook the reins to stop the horses, but he did not know that he had violated the taboo of driving a cart.There was only a neighing of the shaft horse, the wheels slid across the bluestone floor, and the whole carriage rolled over with a rumble.Ma Chao hugged Diaochan's waist and flew away, barely avoiding it, but the hem of his shirt was pinned down by the overturned carriage.The coachman was also thrown out of the car, hit the wall beside him, and remained motionless.

As soon as the incident stopped, Ma Chao couldn't help looking back at Chen Dao: "This Jingzhou Kuailiang, why did he like such a provocative appearance?... I remember that he didn't have this bad problem two years ago."
