The food price incident continues.
The grain merchants who sold their grain left Puyang unwillingly.
Grain merchants who have not sold grain yet are waiting to sell it even if they are unwilling to do so. They do not want to lose money and end up not even earning travel expenses.
Man Chong and the others didn't know how excited they were. In fact, the people in the city were excited. Although Cao Cao offended many aristocratic families, the people of Yanzhou were already praising Cao Cao and treating Cao Cao as their savior. It can be said that he had won the hearts of the people. After all, he bought The grain will eventually be distributed to relieve the people.
Chen Zhou only went out at noon. As he passed the street, he could hear voices praising Cao Cao. He thought that Boss Cao had not only benefited from the grain merchants, but also gained people's hearts.
All the way to the gate of Cao's house, he saw Cao Ang already waiting.
"Sir is finally here, father and the others are waiting for you."
Although Cao Ang has not yet become a disciple, he has completely regarded Chen Zhou as his teacher and led the way into the hall.
Today's celebration banquet is specially held for Chen Zhou.
Xun Yu and others arrived. Cao Cao sat on the main seat and waited. When he saw them, he said, "Please take a seat as soon as we cross."
"I've kept you waiting for so long."
Chen Zhou bowed and then sat down.
"We haven't been waiting for long. Let's give him a toast and thank him for helping us solve a big trouble!"
Cao Cao first raised a glass of wine.
Chen Zhou also raised his glass when he saw it. After drinking a glass of wine, he said: "My lord, you're welcome. I just did what I should do. I took refuge with my lord and didn't make any achievements. Now I finally have some merit."
Next, while they were eating meat and drinking wine, they inevitably chatted about the general situation.
Chen Zhou responded with ease and could answer no matter what he was asked.
After almost eating and drinking, Chen Zhou got up sheepishly and wanted to go for a convenience.
"Zixiu, make arrangements!"
Cao Cao saw Chen Zhou leaving and immediately gave Cao Ang a look.
Cao Ang knew what was being arranged, and walked towards the back of the meeting hall with anticipation on his face.
Guo Jia asked curiously: "What has the Lord arranged?"
"Ha ha……"
Cao Cao smiled and said: "That's a good thing. I think Du Zhi is alone, wouldn't it be boring at home? I want to help Du Zhi arrange a marriage. Besides, Du Zhi is not young and should start a family."
Only when you have a family and a career can you have worries.
The word "care" seems very simple, but in many cases, it is the basis for controlling a person.
For example, if Chen Zhou is concerned about him, he can stay by his side in a down-to-earth manner. Arranging this marriage is also one of his methods to win over Chen Zhou.
Turning Chen Zhou into a family means helping his family with work.
This was also one of the reasons why he invited Chen Zhou back today.
"This is a good thing!"
Xun You nodded and said: "At Duzhi's age, my children can already walk, but the marriage arranged by the lord is for the eldest lady?"
"It's Shan'er."
Cao Cao smiled proudly.
Cao Shan, the eldest daughter of Cao Cao.
That is the future Princess Qinghe.
"Brother, this can't work!"
Xiahou Dun said quickly: "If you do this... what will my family Zi Lin do?"
Xiahou Mao, whose courtesy name is Zilin.
Cao Cao had mentioned to Xiahou Dun a long time ago that he wanted to betroth Cao Shan to Xiahou Dun, but now he suddenly changed his mind. Where did this put his face?
"Yuan Rang, don't panic!"
Cao Cao had already thought of a way to deal with it, and said: "The crossing is very important to us. I can only rest assured when we are all a family. You ask Zilin to wait another two years until my little girl grows up. Can’t we make more arrangements?”
Xiahou Dun thought it was right and muttered a few words, no longer having any objections.
The eldest daughter and the second daughter are almost the same.
He also realized how important Chen Zhou was.
"Congratulations, lord."
Cheng Yu smiled and said, "We have found a good son-in-law."
"Okay, haha..."
Cao Cao smiled happily.
As soon as Chen Zhou came out of the toilet, someone brought a basin of water to wash his hands, and someone even brought a brand new dress to change his clothes.
These are ancient rules.
After everything was done, Chen Zhou was about to go back when he saw Cao Ang walking towards him with a young girl.
"gentlemen!"
Cao Ang said: "Let me introduce you, this is my sister Shan'er."
Cao Shan is very beautiful.
Bright eyes, white teeth, celestial appearance.
When she saw Chen Zhou, her pretty face blushed slightly and smiled again.
It is spring now, and many flowers are blooming quietly in the Cao family's yard, but no matter how beautiful the flowers are, they seem to pale in front of Cao Shan.
Chen Zhou never thought that Boss Cao had such a beautiful daughter.
He has never seen Diao Chan, Zhen Mi, etc., but the Cao Shan in front of him should be not bad compared with them.
"Hello!"
Chen Zhou greeted politely.
"Sir, my father said, let Shan'er accompany you to visit our backyard."
Cao Ang winked at Cao Shan as a hint and said, "Then I won't disturb you and go back to drink."
After saying this, he turned around and ran away.
Leave Chen Zhou and Cao Shan where they are.
At this time, Cao Shan's pretty face turned even redder.
Standing in front of Chen Zhou, it is neither possible to leave nor to continue standing. I want to say a few words, but I don't know what to say. How can we have a common topic when we meet for the first time?
"Lord, this is..."
Chen Zhou knew immediately what Boss Cao wanted to do.
Could the woman in front of me be Cao Cao's eldest daughter, Princess Qinghe?
According to his memory, Princess Qinghe was an extraordinary woman. Cao Cao originally wanted to marry her to Ding Yi, but he disliked Ding Yi for not being good-looking and later married her to Xiahou Mao. However, Princess Qinghe teamed up with her brother-in-law to kill Xiahou. Mao is a ruthless person and his reputation in history is not very good.
However, Chen Zhou looked at the current Cao Shan. She was quiet, gentle and gentle, and she didn't look like someone who could kill her husband.
"How about you take me around?"
Chen Zhou thought for a long time before saying this.
"OK!"
Cao Shan stole a glance at Chen Zhou.
The original owner of Chen Zhou's body after time travel was also very handsome. He used to hang out in brothels and was extremely popular just because he was handsome.
Just by looking at it, Cao Shan felt her heart beat faster.
Much better than that Ding Yi, and even better than Xia Houmao.
"I heard that Sir is very knowledgeable. Is it true?"
Cao Shan took the initiative to find a topic and said, "I have some questions and I would like to ask sir, is that okay?"
Chen Zhou was thinking, don't ask too profound questions, otherwise I won't be able to answer, but he said, "Okay! Miss, please speak."
——
It wasn't until the banquet was over that Chen Zhou and Cao Shan separated.
Cao Ang saw Chen Zhou off. When he left, he asked with a smile: "Sir, what do you think of Shan'er? My father intends to betroth Shan'er to you. As long as you nod your head, we can get married soon."
In ancient marriages, it was basically not your turn to make the decision.
Especially for wealthy families, marriage is a tool for the exchange of interests and power.
Chen Zhou had long looked down on this and understood that this was one of Boss Cao's methods to win over him. He pretended to be embarrassed and said: "This requires the consent of the eldest lady. I will go back first."
"Sir, do you agree?"
Cao Ang was thinking in his mind and immediately went back to tell his father the good news.
Chen Zhou couldn't agree even if he didn't want to. This face had to be given to Boss Cao, unless he no longer wanted to be comfortable. Besides, Cao Shan also had an appetite for him, which was not like in history.
