Chapter 823 The Grand Event Before the Imperial Examination

Sun Ce and Cao Ang threatened Zhang Yu, wanting the stability of this area and giving them enough time to develop.

Sun Ce's foundation is unstable, the geographical span is very large, and the most important mode of transportation, the Yangtze River Waterway, has been under the threat of Zhang Yu.

Therefore, Sun Ce needs time, they develop very fast, give them enough time, they can develop quickly.

As for Cao Ang, the most important thing is that there are too many threats around them, and it takes time to deal with them.

Yuan Shao put a lot of pressure on them, and Li Jue and Zhang Xiu gave them a lot of trouble before.

But now they have eliminated Yuan Shu and Lu Bu, threatening a lot.

At this time, we can stabilize here first, which means that Zhang Yu and Sun Ce will not be enemies with them for the time being, so we can buy them more time.

"Haha, the covenant has been signed, you two can rest assured." Zhang Yu laughed after signing the covenant.

Zhang Yu laughed exaggeratedly, provocatively.

Everyone understands that this covenant has no binding effect, the key is strength.

However, they all believe that this covenant can buy them a certain amount of time. In addition, whoever makes the first move will have a certain moral advantage for the other two parties, that's all.

After the signing, Zhang Yu said: "You two, it's so boring to fight and kill. Why don't you sit down and talk about business. I have a lot of goods in Jiangdong. I don't know if you are interested. It's convenient to just bring them here to trade."

Cao Ang immediately said, "Of course, but there needs to be a certain discount on the price. In addition, we only keep money transactions, so we don't want to have too many conditions."

Zhang Yu was very surprised by Cao Ang's words. Didn't this immediately demolish the situation in front of Sun Ce? The writing of the covenant is not yet dry.

However, Cao Ang also stated that he would not have any other transactions with Zhang Yu.

"Of course, of course, I like doing business the most. Many goods from Jiangdong can be shipped in bulk, and the price will naturally drop a lot. Salt, tea, grain, weapons and equipment, as well as paper, books, liquor... "

Zhang Yu immediately listed a bunch of goods, many of which were in short supply.

"I will arrange for someone to talk about these things,

As long as the benefits can be shared, we can still cooperate very well. " Cao Ang said.

Zhang Yu showed a happy expression, and then asked Sun Ce, "Brother Bofu, are you interested?"

Sun Ce had been in a bad mood just now. He had a private agreement with Cao Ang, but he hooked up with Zhang Yu again in front of him.

Sun Ce also said: "Of course I am interested. Haven't we always maintained friendly business contacts?"

"Okay, then I would like to thank you both for your support. I will take my leave. I hope we can have a happy cooperation in the future."

Zhang Yu left, and so did Sun Ce and Cao Ang.

Cao Ang left very simply and did not continue to discuss anything with Sun Ce.

In doing so, he completely took the initiative in front of Sun Ce.

After leaving, Zhang Yu said to Dian Wei: "This Cao Ang is as shrewd as his father, and he is not easy to deal with."

Cao Ang played very cleverly, and it will be difficult for Sun Ce to gain the initiative in front of him in the future.

Cao Ang's cooperation with Zhang Yu is naturally very beneficial. Anyway, if he does not cooperate with Zhang Yu, there are still many businessmen or aristocratic families who will cooperate with Zhang Yu and enter their territory through different channels.

Let others earn the money, it is better to earn it yourself, and then use it to expand your strength.

There is nothing wrong with Cao Ang's plan.

Although Sun Ce has long cooperated with Zhang Yu and made a lot of money, he has always been on guard.

Zhang Yu didn't go back to Feicheng, and went straight back to Jiangdong after leaving.

At this time, it was less than a month before the imperial examination, which was a very important challenge for Zhang Yu.

At this time, Jiangdong was very lively, and a large number of scholars came to take part in the imperial examination.

The number of people taking the imperial examination this time has greatly exceeded Zhang Zhao's estimate. It is currently estimated that there are at least 80,000 people.

And affected by this wave, many scholars came to observe.

Scholars from some wealthy families brought a lot of followers, so there are a lot of people going to Jiangdong recently.

Some scholars who came from Jizhou, Yuan Shao wanted to send people to intercept them all. Although he intercepted several groups of people later, Yuan Shao could not offend these people and dared not lock them up.

It doesn't matter if you shut down some people, Yuan Shao is not afraid, but if there are too many, Yuan Shao can't stand it.

Because I don't know how many aristocratic families sought him out through different channels, Yuan Shao just dealt with these things, which gave him a headache.

Later, he didn't even care about the civilian scholars and let them go by themselves.

These people will not necessarily become officials in Jiangdong if they take the scientific examination. If they get good grades in the examination, they can take the opportunity to recruit them.

But some loss is certain.

There are advantages and disadvantages, Yuan Shao has no choice.

Scholars flocked not only from Jizhou, but also from all over China.

This Jiangdong seems to have become a holy place.

Of course, there is also an examination room in Youzhou, but the influence of Youzhou cannot be compared with that of Jiangdong. After all, all the big shots are in Jiangdong.

On the way back, Zhang Yu only brought 5,000 people with him, and they were too fat for many students rushing for the exam.

Some of these people want to become an official in Jiangdong, some want to be famous, and some have other goals. In short, no matter what their goals are, this imperial examination must be destined to be passed down through the ages.

This time the number one scholar in the imperial examination, or other people on the list will also be recorded in history.

Running wildly all the way, Zhang Yu rushed to Wangcheng after counting.

Outside the royal city, a large number of students gathered here, and Zhang Zhao arranged a large number of troops to patrol to maintain law and order.

"This royal city is really big and magnificent."

"Jiangdong is so rich, and Zhang Yu was able to build such a city."

"Our northwest side is simply incomparable with this place."

"Hey, I came a month early, and I live in a village where people live. Do you know that the people here live like landlords?"

"Yeah, the people here live really well. I lived in their house for a month, and they ate meat five times a month. I haven't eaten five times a year."

Many students, for the first time, were amazed or amazed.

Jiangdong Academy is naturally a place where they must go on a pilgrimage. In the past two months, many people have visited Jiangdong Academy in batches, and even went in to listen to public lectures.

You can listen to lectures from a few big guys, making them feel that this school is worthwhile

Cai Yong was compiling history, and there would be a lot of problems in the process of compiling history, so he discussed it openly with many students.

These observers not only think that Cai Yong is very knowledgeable, but even the students here are very good, and they can debate with Cai Yong.

In addition, Lu Zhi's lectures were more complicated, which broadened the horizons of many students.

Zheng Xuan's speech was very in-depth, and many people were mesmerized after listening to it, and they were addicted to Zheng Xuan's words.

In addition, there are many subjects here, which makes them feel that they have learned too little.

Warmly celebrate the release of my friend's new book "The Tyrant of the Three Kingdoms Lu Bu", and wish the new book a great hit
