As soon as these words came out, even Liu Yu was so shocked that he opened his mouth and was speechless. Liu Yi's eyes widened and he shouted directly: "Huan Xuan, are you crazy? Three million? You, Are you going to use a state or county’s annual tax revenue to buy a person?”
Huan Xuan smiled slightly and looked at Liu Yi: "I know that Brother Xile likes to play big and spend millions, so I don't bother to slowly raise the price with you, lest you end up with nothing like you did in Jingkou Aipu. The money has to be staked with one of my own hands. As the prince of Jingzhou, I naturally have the ability and means to get this money. If I can't get it, I will make a fool of myself in front of the whole world. I don't think my uncle will watch me go. Ruining the reputation of this family."
Xie Xuan looked at Huan Xuan and sighed softly: "Aning, do you know who I am thinking of?"
Wang Gong obviously didn't recover from the shock just now. After hearing this, he shook his head slightly: "Incredible, so incredible. Today's auction really exceeded my imagination. Huan Xuan This is treating money as dirt. I, Wang Gong, have lived for more than 40 years, and I have never seen anyone so extravagant."
Xie Xuan smiled slightly: "I have seen one who was more generous than him. Do you know who it is?"
Wang Gong's eyes widened: "What, is there anyone more generous than him? How could it be..." His eyes suddenly lit up and he almost blurted out a name.
Xie Xuan smiled and nodded: "Yes, he is Xi Chao, who is known as the bearded soldier, and was Huan Wen's number one adviser. Although this man was the culprit who helped Huan Wen usurp, he also worked with me for many years back then. Although we Differences in political opinions eventually came to a head due to Huan Wen's usurpation, but it is undeniable that this resourceful and resourceful man in the army is indeed a hero among men. His insights are so high and his actions are so miraculous that I feel inferior to him."
Wang Gong laughed: "If this kid Xi Chao knew that you had such a high opinion of him, I'm afraid he would be satisfied even if he could never be an official again in this life. The thing you said about spending tens of millions was the same back then. It was a sensation, and to be honest, I still don’t know what he thinks.”
Liu Jingxuan on the side said curiously: "Xuanshuai, prince, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand it at all?"
Xie Xuan smiled slightly and said: "What we are talking about is that when Xi Chao was still the son of an aristocratic family, his father Xi Yin (a vertical heart on the left and a sound on the right, there is no such word in the vocabulary, sorry) was greedy and made tens of millions of dollars. He had a bad reputation among aristocratic families. At that time, Taiwei Chu Pei's Northern Expedition had just failed, and there were many orphans and widowed mothers in Jingkou, so Xi Chao went to his father and said that he was short of money recently and hoped that his father could borrow some. Xi Yin was I was in a good mood, so I agreed to let Xi Chao go to the treasury to get as much money as he wanted."
In the open space on one side, Liu Yu also looked calm and said to Wang Miaoyin's master and servant beside him: "And this Xi Chao simply opened the door of the warehouse, allowing thousands of people from Jingkou City to arrive in one day. The money was taken out of the warehouse and left to its own devices, so in less than a day, more than 10 million yuan in the warehouse was gone. This incident caused a sensation in Jingkou at the time."
Wang Miaoyin's wonderful eyes were spinning, while Shuang'er covered her mouth in surprise: "Oh my God, more than ten million, this, how can this Mr. Xi do it!"
Liu Muzhi smiled slightly: "Isn't that right? His stingy father was so frightened and angry that he almost got sick, but Xi Chao took him around Jingkou and paid a private visit incognito to all parts of the country. , both old and young, women and children, all praised Xi Yin's benevolence. The whole of Jingkou regarded him as a great benefactor. He gave away tens of millions of money, but regained a good reputation. Some elders even signed a letter to recommend Xi Yin to serve as the southern minister. The governor of Xuzhou, the governor of Xi, also got the official position because of this. Of course, he made a lot of money in those years, and the tens of millions of dollars have been paid back long ago. Isn't this a double gain of fame and fortune? So, this Xi Chao is the one It’s really amazing, it’s really like losing a thousand pieces of gold and getting it back again.”
Wang Miaoyin smiled slightly: "Yes, you can only give up if you give up. Xi Yin's father, Xi Jian, was originally the chief of Beifu, the first town in Jingkou when Jingkou was first established. Unfortunately, his sons were not very successful, but they were grandsons. Although our Xie family was a life-and-death enemy of Xi Chao, our Xianggong almost instigated Huan Wen to kill him, but even so, our Xianggong still marveled at his talent and did not stop after Huan Wen died. The plan to counterattack Xi Chao is to remove him from office and let him live idle. In fact, if we are in trouble in Feishui this time, his old man is still interested in letting this person come out to help."
Liu Yu's expression changed: "Do you even use Xi Chao? Alas, but it is understandable that unity is the first priority in the national crisis. But this Huan Xuan, I heard that he was Xi Chao's disciple, has always been I learned all kinds of tactics from his side. At a young age, I am full of powerful strategies. I guess I learned this trick from this bearded soldier."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "Yes, Huan Xuan will never be able to get the three million. Huan Chong will not let him give him the income of a county just to make friends with the noble family in Beijing, but he is so powerful. Here, as the eldest son of the Huan family, since he opened his mouth, Huan Chong had no choice but to give it. This not only won the reputation of the Huan family, but also showed his magnanimity. The most important thing is that this Lu Zongzhi is afraid that Huan Chong Xuanhui is more interested in it than we thought."
Liu Yu raised his eyebrows slightly: "What do you mean by this?"
Liu Muzhi looked at Lu Zongzhi on the stage. This dark, lean and capable man had shining eyes and seemed to be filled with tears. He used the phrase "a man who knows himself will die" to describe this man from Guanzhong. He was afraid that he would never see him again. It's too much. Huan Xuan's action has fully proved that he is interested in him. Why not let this prisoner of war slave become moved by him and even be willing to die for him.
Liu Muzhi curled up his lips: "Lu Zongzhi is not an ordinary warrior. He is a powerful and influential man in Guanzhong. Otherwise, he would not be able to achieve the status of a general under Zhang Hao. Guanzhong has had strong folk customs since the Qin and Han Dynasties, and powerful people everywhere Lin Li is also closely related to each other and is related to each other by marriage. If Huan Xuan paid such a large price to buy Lu Zongzhi, he would definitely not use it as an ordinary slave or guard, or even as his own subordinate. He would probably use it as his own. People recommended him as the governor or governor of a place, and even set up a special prefecture and county for overseas Chinese in the Xiangyang area to attract immigrants from Guanzhong."
Liu Yu blurted out: "Are you going to build another Jingkou and another Beifu Army?"
