Chapter 1394: Changes in Xuzhou
When Lin Mu entered the capital Luoyang, Xuzhou.
"Is Zhang Kai still unwilling to see us?" Zhu Xuan asked with a gloomy face.
"Lord, Zhang Kai has been shirking his duty, saying that he is busy with official business, and today he even said that he is seriously ill." A player reported with a depressed face.
"Humph! Our lord is the governor, and he dared to refuse a surrendered general. Isn't he afraid that we will punish him?!" Several players next to him said indignantly.
Zhu Xuan became the governor, and their status rose. Even when facing NPCs, they felt confident!
"Is there any situation in Xuzhou?" Zhu Xuan snorted and asked immediately.
For Mo Xin, the Zhu family sent many players to keep inquiring, and even bribed many players and NPCs of the Yellow Turban camp in Xuzhou, investing a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to find out who broke through the secret territory and plundered Mo Xin.
But for some reason, no news came out. Is there no player who knows about the Yellow Turban Army that attacked his territory? Is there no Yellow Turban soldier willing to reveal it?
Zhu Xuan always felt that there was some secret.
The relationship between the Yellow Turban Army and the local nobles in Xuzhou was very strange. On the surface, the Yellow Turban Army ravaged Xuzhou, but the nobles who really lost were not there at all. According to some information, those nobles even gained a lot!
"Lord, the counselors of the General Staff Department speculated based on some sporadic information that the Yellow Turban Army that attacked us at the beginning may have been dealt with and killed, or they may have disappeared from Xuzhou, so the news about Mo Xin could not be spread." A player dressed as a counselor said.
"Humph! Those people in the General Staff Department's guesses are not accurate. The last time and the time before that were very different. This time, it may not be accurate!" Zhu Xuan heard this and snorted coldly.
Originally, the location of this territory was determined by the staff based on the situation of the Han Dynasty, the resources of the Thirteen States, and the later history. However, they did not expect that they could not even survive the Yellow Turban Rebellion and fell directly. Even Mo Xin was robbed and there was no news. It was speechless.
"You must find it! Spend money, you continue to attack Zhang Kai. If he really got it, spend money to buy it from him. Even if he didn't, offer him a reward and let him help!" Zhu Xuan ordered.
"This time, I accidentally got the position of prefect and have a basic territory. If I add Mo Xin's assistance, I can definitely show my strength, accumulate troops, resources, and connections, and then wait for Dong Zhuo's rebellion to dominate the world!" Zhu Xuan said ambitiously.
Mo Xin is a special heaven-level village building order. When he got it, he also triggered an epic hidden task. But after Mo Xin disappeared, the task disappeared. This is also one of the reasons why he frantically searched for Mo Xin! !
That epic hidden task, even Liu Hong, who gave him Mo Xin, didn't know!
"Damn it!" Zhu Xuan hated the Yellow Turban Army in Xuzhou. If there was no other way, he really wanted to slaughter all the Yellow Turban Army to plunder Mo Xin.
"But Lord, we want to build Zhuo County, and the funding..." the counselor player whispered to dissuade.
"Continue to inject funds... Of course, the development plan of Zhuo County cannot be delayed. It is the first priority, and the search for Mo Xin is the second priority." Zhu Xuan thought about it and made careful arrangements.
Fortunately, Liu Hong did not blame him too much, otherwise, he might not even be a county magistrate.
"Yes!" Several players responded immediately.
Now the overall situation of the family has shifted to Zhuo County.
The position of Zhuo County Governor was not bought, but Liu Hong gave it to them on the surface to commend their merits. Bought officials usually serve for two years. If you want to continue, just keep buying.
"How is the acquisition of Huaxia Super Guild going?" Zhu Xuan asked again.
There are many outstanding people in China, many super guilds, and many wealthy groups, so there is a situation of a hundred flowers blooming and a hundred schools of thought contending. Even if the Zhu family is rich, it is very difficult to get a big foot in the super guild. Of course, it is okay to get a small foot in, for example, the Zhu family also has shares in three super guilds. But that is just a share, not a single hand.
"Lord, it is not ideal. Those wealthy families are madly injecting capital into the guild. They are not short of money at all. And other families are also madly rolling in this muddy water. The water is getting more and more muddy, and there are more and more fish strangely." The counselor player reported.
"Of course... As more and more soul-type skills monuments are exchanged for reality, the impact of reality is getting greater and greater, and the situation will become more and more complicated."
"Yes! That's right. By the way, Lord, when we were carrying out the plan, a new capital force appeared. It is rumored that it came from the Muhuang Group!"
"What? The Muhuang Group, which was established not long ago, also got involved?" Zhu Xuan heard this, his face changed, and he was surprised. After the surprise, there was a strong sense of envy, jealousy and hatred.
When one person succeeds, everyone around him will benefit. This is the most vivid truth when it comes to the Muhuang Group!
"Humph! If it weren't for the influence of those rules, the Muhuang Group would have been destroyed by various means long ago! How could they be so arrogant!" A player said fiercely.
Zhu Xuan took a deep breath and suppressed his anger. No matter how awesome Lin Mu was, he always looked down on Lin Mu in his heart. Even if he was awarded the title of [King of Mu].
...
While Zhu Xuan was worried, Zhang Kai was also worried in a mansion not far away. He refused to see Zhu Xuan, not only to deal with it, but also because he was really busy!
What are you busy with? Busy winning over people, balancing the Xuzhou gentry, integrating into the Xuzhou gentry circle, dealing with the Xuzhou Yellow Turban Army, and trying to save his life and status in the Dragon Court...
He is really busy.
Just now, a messenger brought news that the former Xiaoqu commander Wu Huan and the Xuzhou gentry had a conflict and almost fought.
Zhang Kai sighed lightly, rubbed his forehead heavily, and was distressed.
In addition to the former Xiaoqu commander Wu Huan, other people, Chen Bai, Huang Xiang, Wan Bing, etc., were also troubled by the gentry.
Those gentry began to betray their trust!
If he hadn't held some evidence in his hands, maybe those gentry would have caught them all, including himself.
"Alas... It seems that it's not possible to wander among them. I have to find a backer!" Zhang Kai is not a person who knows nothing. He can wander among the Xuzhou gentry and prevent the situation in Xuzhou from being corrupted to the point where it cannot be controlled. He is quite capable.
After knowing that Zhang Jue fell under the city of Luoyang, he decisively led the Yellow Turban Army to surrender to Long Ting and had already given a letter of surrender to Liu Hong. Moreover, he had kept the organization and had considerable power, so the officers and soldiers of Xuzhou did not make a big move.
"However, we have to wait! Long Ting should hold a reward meeting in the near future. At that time, the position of Xuzhou governor may change... If a fierce tiger comes, rely on him!" Zhang Kai thought clearly.
Everything has to wait for the result of the real reward meeting!
"Report!"
"Da Qushuai! Urgent report!" At this time, a loud shout came.
"Remember, don't call me Da Qushuai in the future, call me general!" Zhang Kai looked at the messenger who ran in hurriedly, and his mouth twitched.
"Yes! Da Qushuai!"
"..." Zhang Kai was speechless... In fact, he still thought Da Qushuai sounded good, but he had surrendered to the Han court. If he still kept this thing, it would be disrespectful.
"Tell me...what conflicts have arisen?" Zhang Kai said helplessly.
"Xiaoqu General Wu Huan was driven out of Guangqi City!"
"What? Didn't we agree to let our people rest in the city? They actually..." Zhang Kai's face suddenly changed when he heard this.
He vaguely knew that this was not the end, but the beginning!
"Xiaoqu General Wu Huan was just dissatisfied with their actions, and fought back angrily, and..." the messenger hesitated.
"What?" Zhang Kai asked.
"Xiaoqu General Wu Huan beat up the county magistrate of Guangqi City... and... and asked the soldiers to rob all the warehouses of the nobles in the city."
"Hiss!!!" Zhang Kai took a breath of cold air when he heard this.
Wu Huan actually did such a thing at this critical moment, isn't this adding fuel to the fire! !
"Big Canal Commander, Small Canal Commander Wu Huan did not empty the warehouses of the nobles, but only robbed some resources, gold coins, silver coins, copper coins, and food, etc. The family soldiers of the nobles may know this situation, and did not fight, but just drove them out of the city."
"Oh? Only robbed resources, not money or food?" Zhang Kai was a little surprised when he heard this, but he was more relieved.
The situation has not reached an irreversible point.
"Big Canal Commander, Small Canal Commander Wu Huan sent a message saying that this is our counterattack to deter the nobles, otherwise they may become more aggressive."
"Oh... When did Wu Huan become so smart!" Zhang Kai's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this. This is a good idea!
Not killing people, not robbing money or food, but not doing nothing. Robbing some stones, wood and some other items can also be considered a deterrent.
"Interesting... How about we imitate them? No... No..." After thinking for a while, Zhang Kai shook his head. Wu Huan can do it, but he can't do it. If he does the same, things will go wrong.
"Report!!" At this moment, another messenger came. However, this voice was not the voice of the messenger, but the voice of the personal guard.
"Report to the commander of the Great Channel, there is a person named Zhao Yu outside who wants to see you." The personal guard walked in and reported.
"Zhao Yu? Who is it?" Zhang Kai raised his eyebrows and asked in confusion. There have been many people who have asked to see him recently, and he doesn't know how many times he has refused. Even the new governor of Zhuo County, he didn't go to see him!
"Commander of the Great Channel, this person said that he is the person who is the new governor of Xuzhou!" The personal guard reported in a low voice.
"The person who is the new governor of Xuzhou?" Zhang Kai stood up suddenly after hearing this.
As far as he knows, the candidate for the governor of Xuzhou has not been decided yet... How could this be? Liar? It shouldn't be like that. If it is exposed at that time, it will be a matter of losing his head. Moreover, he vaguely felt that this person was real. That is to say, the position of governor has been decided long ago, but outsiders are not aware of it.
"The opportunity to break the deadlock has appeared!" Zhang Kai murmured.
