"General Zhang, I came here today just to make connections. I specially introduced someone to the general."
Zheng Shiqi smiled and said.
"oh?"
"Recommend someone?"
"who is it?"
Zhang Renjie was a little puzzled.
Originally, when he saw these gold and silver jewelry, he already understood the meaning of the Zheng family shopkeeper, and it was obvious that he had surrendered.
The most indispensable thing for the Zheng family is these gold and silver jewelry.
And they in Jimo County are now recruiting troops and preparing food and grass, which is when they need money.
The money sent by Zheng Shiqi really solved their urgent need.
But unexpectedly, they came not to seek refuge with him, but to seek refuge with others, which surprised Zhang Renjie.
Just when Zhang Renjie was confused, a man came out from behind Zheng Shiqi.
"Fang Fu, the governor of Beihai County in Hezhou, has met General Zhang."
Fang Fu raised his hands and said to Zhang Renjie.
"Um?"
"People from Hezhou?"
Zhang Renjie's eyes turned cold.
"Haha, you are really brave. You dare to come to my Ji Mo County alone. How awesome is it!"
"As expected of Zhang Bao's subordinates, not bad! Please come in!"
Zhang Renjie said to Fang Fu.
For Zhang Renjie and others who lead troops to fight, the more unyielding and courageous you are, the more they admire you, and the most contempt for those who are timid and timid.
The man in front of him, since he is already the head of a county in Hezhou, dares to come to his own Dongzhou regardless of his own safety. This courage alone is enough to make Zhang Renjie admire him.
And just one person can't do much at all.
"The governor of Fang County has traveled thousands of miles to come to my Ji Mo County. Why?"
"Could he be here to persuade you to surrender?"
Zhang Renjie said to Fang Fu.
"General Zhang is joking. We in Hezhou are going through a lot of difficulties right now. You also know that although some unpleasant things happened between our Zhang Zhou Mu and you Yang Zhou Mu before."
"But these things have passed after all. Now four generals control Dongzhou, which is a good situation for us in Hezhou."
"After all, we don't understand the salt road at all. We Zhangzhou Mu, with the help of the Zheng family, want to join forces with General Zhang to manage Dongzhou well together. Wouldn't it be wonderful?"
Fang Fu said slowly to Zhang Renjie.
"oh?"
"You mean, you, Zhang Zhou Mu, want to support me as the Zhou Mu of Dongzhou?"
Zhang Renjie's eyes flashed and he asked Fang Fu.
"As for what our Zhangzhou Mu means, it's not easy for us as subordinates to guess."
"But I know that our Zhangzhou Mu's move is at least sincere. These gold and silver are just a little bit of our Zhangzhou Mu's thoughts."
Fang Fu said with a smile.
"oh?"
"You can't tell that Zhangzhou Mu has a very big structure."
"That's right, the world is in chaos now, and Hezhou is in the whirlpool of various forces. Naturally, you can't make enemies at this time. Even though we don't have a state pastor in Dongzhou, we are all strong."
"Previously, Jeju Governor Wen Fuli sent 80,000 troops to take down our Dongzhou. What was the result? Didn't we defeat him steadily?"
"They Jeju are just humiliating themselves."
"Zhang Zhoumu is still down-to-earth in his work. He is young and promising, and he takes it seriously!"
Zhang Renjie smiled proudly.
He finally understood the purpose of Zhang Bao sending Fang Fulai.
The reason why a county guard was asked to come in person was, on the one hand, because it seemed to take him more seriously, and on the other hand, it also gave him complete peace of mind.
If Zhang Bao had other ideas, there was no need to ask for help from the Zheng family, let alone send such a heavyweight.
After listening to Zhang Renjie's words, Fang Fu smiled and did not answer.
This Zhang Renjie is really arrogant. Who gave you the courage? Manager He?
Zheng Shiqi, who was on the side, saw that something was wrong and quickly stood up.
"General Zhang, although I don't understand these war matters, I can still see that you, General Zhang in Jimo County, are the most powerful one in the entire Dongzhou."
"The other generals, namely General Shi Xu, are quite powerful, but I heard that they have been troubled by bandits recently and are currently busy suppressing bandits."
"Zhang Zhoumu is able to have a good relationship with the general, naturally because the general has the capital."
Zheng Shiqi said to Zhang Renjie.
Now Zheng Shiqi did not put his position entirely on Zhang Bao's side. What he said was obviously speaking for Zhang Renjie. While praising Zhang Renjie, he also did not forget to belittle the other generals.
"snort!"
"His Shi Xu is just taking advantage of what he did when we divided the troops. With his meager skills, I think back when I led the troops to fight, he didn't know where to play with peeing in mud."
"Even the bandits can't handle it. It's such an embarrassment to us!"
Zhang Renjie said very dissatisfied.
"When we came here, we also saw the bandits running rampant in Linyi County. I heard that General Shi Xu was preparing to launch a large-scale operation against these bandits."
"But it seems that he is not an opponent. I'm afraid I have to rely on General Zhang."
Fang Fu smiled.
"snort!"
"That loser, he thinks beautifully!"
Zhang Renjie said disdainfully.
"In that case, I won't bother you too much."
Fang Fu said as he prepared to stand up and leave.
"If it's inconvenient for Sheriff Fang to go back, do you need me to find someone to escort you back?"
"If Shi Xu is unreasonable, I'm afraid he may block him if he knows the identity of Governor Fang."
Zhang Renjie said to Fang Fu.
"Thank you, General Zhang, for your kindness. It will be more convenient for the next person to go back."
"It's not beautiful when there are too many people, and it wouldn't be good if General Zhang had a falling out with General Shi Xu because of our problems."
"Farewell!"
Fang Fu said as he followed Zheng Shiqi out.
"Master Fang, shall we go directly to the next place now?"
Zheng Shiqi couldn't wait to ask as soon as he got on the carriage.
"Shopkeeper Zheng, don't worry, Zhang Renjie might be keeping an eye on me. Let's talk in a few days. Besides, it will still take some time to collect and deliver the gold, silver and jewelry we looted."
"After they arrive, it won't be too late for us to go to the next county."
"Walk!"
Fang Fu smiled and said to Zheng Shiqi.
