Chapter 626: Yuan Shao Who Is About to Be Driven Crazy
This scene was planned by Zhang Yu and Xu You.
The next day, Xu You left Ji County and announced that he would sever ties with Zhang Yu.
Xu You left angrily. Of course, the gold and silver coins cannot be brought back like this, otherwise it will make people suspicious. Naturally, Zhang Yu has a way to give these belongings to Xu You.
The play is over, and the content will naturally be spread through various channels, and they can be confirmed by each other, so Yuan Shao can't help but believe it.
Xu You "goed back in despair", Guo Tu and the examiner were secretly happy.
Zhang Yu also uttered a lot of cruel words, and then announced his return to Jiangdong the next day.
Going back to Jiangdong is true, there are a lot of things in Jiangdong, Zhang Yu must go back as soon as possible to deal with Sun Ce and Yuan Shu's affairs.
It's just that this time, apart from bringing Dian Wei's 50,000 personal guards back, the other troops dare not use them.
When Yuan Shao got the news, his expression was very gloomy.
But a day ago, there was new news in Jizhou.
"Have you heard that Duke Yuan will not redeem hundreds of thousands of captives, and now these captives are going to build a city for Zhang Yu?"
"Ah, how many people will die when the city is built? Can my baby come back?"
"Mr. Yuan has money, why don't you redeem it?"
"The money is a bit too much, but Mr. Yuan has money."
"It is said that Zhang Yu is cruel. These people fall into Zhang Yu's hands. If they are not redeemed, they will be tortured to death by Zhang Yu."
All kinds of rumors had been circulating in Jizhou one day earlier, and the next day, Yuan Shao got these messages and what happened in Ji County at the same time.
Yuan Shao was furious. It was obvious that Zhang Yu asked for too much money, and he wanted to redeem it, but he couldn't let Zhang Yu lead him by the nose.
What made Yuan Shao even more angry was that Zhang Yu really closed the window for negotiating with Yuan Shao.
Is it really necessary to issue an announcement and use the announcement to bargain with Zhang Yu?
Ordinary people don't understand so many reasons, they only know that Yuan Shao will not redeem their children, husbands and fathers.
These soldiers all have families, and these people would hate Yuan Shao to death.
And if this matter continues, it will shake the morale of the army.
Yuan Shao was very passive.
If he says he has no money, he can only delay for a while. He always wants to expand the army, and he always has to do other things. He has money to do other things, but he has no money to redeem soldiers. What will people think about it then?
All kinds of rumors are fermenting.
It was still a rumor at first, but within a few days, the news that Zhang Yu asked them to work really came back.
The work is real. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of people, and it is impossible for Zhang Yu to support them all the time.
So what are they going to do?
Hundreds of thousands of people have been leveling the land, and the leveling place is in present-day Beiping, a place not far from Ji County.
Zhang Yu really planned to build a city here, and what he built would be the capital of future generations.
The location here is very good, it is an ideal place.
Zhang Yu wanted to build such a city, which may or may not be the capital in the future.
The news that Zhang Yu was going to build the city spread, and the message was even more miserable.
In Jizhou and Qingzhou, many family members of soldiers quit. What if their relatives really died on the construction site?
In addition, Yuan Shao's military morale became a little unstable. You must know that these soldiers are most concerned about the redemption of prisoners, in case they encounter the same thing in the future.
Zhang Yu's intelligence agency has been making waves, so Yuan Shao is very passive.
Yuan Shao sent someone to clarify the matter and explain Zhang Yu's conspiracy.
Although some people understand it, most people still can't understand it.
Zhang Yu didn't let go, and after a few days of arguing, Yuan Shao came up with various methods.
Soon, Zhang Yu's side began to raise prices.
The first time it was only raised by 1 million, the second time it was raised by 3 million. A few days later, the total price was increased to 70 million.
Yuan Shao became more and more anxious and tried various methods, but none of them worked.
Yuan Shao was in a hurry and needed a solution.
Everyone had no choice, so Yuan Shao planned to send Guo Tu and Jushou this time, because Xu You failed to get things done.
But things didn't go well. Guo Tu and Jushou were stopped at the border and rushed back. They tried to get people to inform Zhang Yu several times, and even sent people to sneak in, but nothing worked.
Now Yuan Shao was even more anxious, unable to negotiate, and the price was still rising.
In particular, there were rumors every day for a few days that a large number of people died of exhaustion or were beaten to death on the construction site.
And they have names and surnames, and many even have home addresses, which are very similar.
In fact, these are real people who work on construction sites, but their lives are not bad.
Get up to work every morning, take an hour break at noon, and eat all three meals.
It's a good day to say the least.
The soldiers who manage them are also kind, as long as they don't make trouble or be lazy, occasionally these soldiers will help them.
Just to stop the panic, Youzhou sent people to rumor that many people died of exhaustion on the construction site.
Actually not.
None of the people who spread the news died, and they were working hard on the construction site.
But the news of hundreds of deaths every day still makes the whole Jizhou and Qingzhou uneasy.
This kind of turmoil, coupled with the use of people with intentions, naturally made Yuan Shao feel uneasy.
There is no way, without a negotiation channel, Yuan Shao seems to have no choice but to compromise.
But at this time the price had already risen to 70 million yuan, Yuan Shao couldn't stand it.
Guo Tu and Ju Shou returned without success, and there was nothing they could do about it.
At this time Xu You stood up again.
"Oh, my lord, I can still talk to Zhang Yu, but last time I had a tough fight with Zhang Yu, even if I see Zhang Yu this time, the negotiation will not be so smooth," Xu You said.
Yuan Shao seemed to have grasped a little light, and hurriedly said: "It's okay, as long as you can talk, you can talk as much as you want. The bottom line is 60 million. You can handle it yourself and deal with this matter as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to move forward."
When Yuan Shao expanded his army, he needed to purchase a large amount of weapons and equipment. The amount of money was not tens of millions.
At that time, Yuan Shao has the money to buy weapons and equipment, but has no money to redeem people, then it will be difficult.
Therefore, Yuan Shao can only solve it as soon as possible, otherwise all work will not be able to be carried out.
Xu You took the order and left in embarrassment, but in fact he was happy in his heart.
With a bottom line of 60 million, if I can talk about 55 million, I can make Yuan Shao happy. At the same time, I can get 5 million more for Zhang Yu, and Zhang Yu is also very happy.
In this way, Xu You has both sides, one side gets Zhang Yu's benefits, and one side can get Yuan Shao's rewards.
Xu You felt that he was too smart and powerful.
Of course Xu You can get things done.
But the process is also quite tortuous.
When Xu You went to Ji County again, Zhang Yu had already left, and he could only argue with Gu Yong.
They talked about it for three days and three nights, and all kinds of news came out in the three days. Then Xu You fought Gu Yong for hundreds of rounds, and his lips were worn out.
The last little talk, one million, hundreds of thousands, and finally tens of thousands of tens of thousands of bargaining.
Three days later, the two parties reached an agreement to trade for 55 million.
During these three days, although the news spread like this, Xu You confessed the truth as soon as he came. During the three days, the two drank tea and chatted several times. Gu Yong went to deal with various government affairs, while Xu You was idle reading and drinking. Tea. The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms
