When Wen Nu heard Yuan Shu's words, he didn't know how excited he was. His worries were finally put to rest, and he was no longer as worried as before.
After all, considering Yuan Shu's family background and his personality, this matter has been settled in any case.
Wen Nu: "Brother Gonglu, with your words, Nu will feel relieved."
"I'm ashamed to say that this time I just wanted to borrow 300 million from my wise brother to buy my position as the prefect of Zhuo County."
"There is nothing I can do if I am angry. I am still short of 300 million yuan by scraping everything together. So I thought of you, my dear brother. I am really ashamed, but I still ask your dear brother, Mr. Lu, to help me!"
Wen Nu was so excited that he stood up, bowed deeply to Yuan Shu and said again: "Please help me, my dear brother Lu!"
Zhang Fei and Guan Yu had long been shocked. In this short period of time, they had refreshed all their previous understandings.
Although they had heard of such buying and selling of officials in the past, this was the first time they saw it in person.
The shock in my heart can be said to be beyond words, and one of them is the eldest brother they just became sworn friends to.
Although they had all kinds of questions at this time, they all suppressed their doubts and questions. They always believe that their elder brother will give them a reasonable explanation, and things may not be what they think.
When Yuan Shu saw Wen Nu behaving like this, he could only stand up quickly and help Wen Nu up and said, "Brother Wen, why are you doing this? It's just a mere 300 million yuan."
"Although I don't have the technique with me now, I can write a letter now. When I get to Luoyang, Brother Wen can go directly to any local bank to cash it with the letter."
"The money Brother Wen withdraws will naturally be deducted from my assets."
Zhang Fei's heart: My eldest brother is very generous, and I can make 300 million yuan in one move.
The assets of the entire Zhang family are nothing more than this. It seems that what the eldest brother said before is probably true. The future of the Zhang family may rise in my hands and become a new noble clan.
Moreover, he will be one of the top noble families, and judging from the eldest brother's face and tone, he says that the 300 million yuan is just a drop in the bucket. And it’s great value for money. I had thought that the gap between noble families would be huge, but I didn’t expect it to be so big.
Now Guan Yu doesn't know the concept of 300 million yuan, but he also knows that it is a lot. What he didn't expect was that the official position of a prefect was actually worth 300 million yuan, maybe more.
But with Guan Yu's current imagination, he doesn't know how much the position of prefect is worth, maybe 500 million or maybe a billion.
But Guan Yu never expected that it would be three billion yuan. This was something Guan Yu only found out not long after.
After Wen Nu received Yuan Shu's affirmative help, he immediately said: "Brother Gong Road, if you are useful to Nu in the future, just ask."
"I will never shirk my anger. I will never forget the great kindness shown to me today by my dear brother."
But if Wen Nu knew what would happen in a few years, he wouldn't say this. After all, that time was when the princes were fighting for hegemony.
And he, Wennu, was one of the eighteen princes, but it was a pity that he was not able to support him until the end. It didn't even leave enough traces in history. It just left a sentence of Wennu, the governor of Zhuojun, and that's all.
Yuan Shu pretended to laugh and said, "Hahaha, Brother Wen's words are quite accurate."
"Based on the relationship between you and me, this 300 million yuan is nothing at all."
Then Yuan Shu took the opportunity to continue and said: "But Shu does have something to ask for. Although it is a small matter. But for me, it is a big matter that bears the brunt, so I ask Brother Wen to help."
It has to be said that Yuan Shu is very good at manipulating people's hearts. Even though Guan Yu is now his sworn brother, he still needs to be brainwashed.
He is taking this opportunity to tell Guan Yu and Zhang Fei that he, Yuan Shu, really regards you as brothers. That's why he did it this way, and Yuan Shu gained both fame and fortune by doing this.
As soon as Wen Nu heard Yuan Shu's words, he knew that this matter must have something to do with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, because he knew it just based on Yuan Shu's attitude towards Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
Combined with Yuan Shu's words, he also specifically emphasized that this matter is a big or small matter. In other words, Yuan Shu could solve this matter by himself, but he had to take over his own hands to do it.
Then there is no doubt that he is trying to win people's hearts. Thinking of this, Wen Nu quickly said: "Brother Qiu Xian, why do you and I need to do this?"
"As long as anger can help, good brother Qiu may speak his words, but anger is definitely not someone who breaks his word."
Then Yuan Shu looked at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and said: "This is actually about my second brother Guan Yu. It is not convenient for me to come forward in this matter."
"Because teacher Cai Yong may have some misunderstandings about me, I can only ask Brother Wen for help. You happen to be the prefect of a county."
"I think the teacher is still willing to believe in your character."
Yuan Shu did not directly say what the matter was, but just said that he would help Guan Yu solve the problem. But he also said that he didn't want to leave a bad impression on his teacher, so he could express his difficulties without making Guan Yu and Zhang Fei feel any different.
Wen Nu followed Yuan Shu's words and looked at Guan Yu. Even when he looked at this strong man again, Wen Nu felt that he was a heroic figure in this life.
Then Wen Nu said to Guan Yu: "Since the strong man is the sworn brother of the heroic brother Guan Xiandi, even if you don't mind, Wen will ask him to call the strong man Guan Xiandi."
"I just don't know what difficulties Guan Xiandi has, so feel free to tell me. Nu will definitely help Guan Xiandi solve it."
And Guan Yu never expected that Yuan Shu could do this for him. He spent 300 million yuan just to clear his name.
For a moment, he didn't know how touched he was. He also thought that his sworn brother would definitely help him solve this matter. But he didn't expect that it would be solved today. For a moment, Guan Yu couldn't help shouting: "Brother, I..."
Yuan Shu: "Hey, second brother, don't do this. Now that you, I, and third brother are sworn brothers, your affairs are my affairs."
"So there is no need to say anything more. Besides, you have been wronged in this matter. The injustice you have endured for so many years, second brother, should end."
"Second brother, just tell Taishou Wen the whole story clearly. It will be fine."
Not to mention Guan Yu, even outsiders Zhang Fei and Wen Nu felt Yuan Shu's benevolence and righteousness. Although this does not rule out Yuan Shu's desire to win over people's hearts, Wen Nu knows best. If you want to win people's hearts, the most basic prerequisite is to have money, and the most important thing is to be willing to invest in this matter.
At this moment, Guan Yu picked up the wine glass and drank all the wine in it, and then said: "I am originally a good man from Hedong, but because the governor of Hedong County and his relatives colluded with the bandits to commit evil, forcing women from good families to kill people and steal treasures, they committed all kinds of evil."
"Guan couldn't stand it anymore and killed the bandit Lu Xiong, so he fled all the way here."
In just two sentences, Wen Nu and Zhang Fei understood what Guan Yu meant.
Zhang Fei: "In this world, my second brother is really wronged."
Wen Nu: "So that's how it is. Brother Guan Xian, don't worry."
"This matter will be clarified for you today, and you will no longer be a fugitive criminal in the future. Today I will make a statement in our Zhuo County, stamp it with my official seal, and then edit a letter and go to the court to sue that person. The governor of Hedong County."
"Then Brother Guan Xiandi will be able to operate within the court a little bit, and Brother Guan Xiandi will have nothing to worry about from now on."
This was also the best solution Wen Nu came up with. After all, the other party was also the governor of a county. The most important thing is this official auction, and the position of the governor of Hedong County is also on it.
Therefore, it is hard to say whether he will be a prefect or not in the future. That is to say, it is very likely that this person will become the guy who is pushed down by everyone, and he just speeds up the process.
Guan Yu: "In that case, Guan would like to thank the prefect."
Then he also said to Yuan Shu: "Yun Chang would also like to thank you, brother."
After all, Guan Yu still cares about his reputation. And he himself didn't think what he was doing was wrong. And now with the help of his eldest brother Yuan Shu and the governor of Zhuojun, he can soon clear his grievances.
It can be said that this is the most comfortable day Guan Yu has had in recent years, and a heavy burden has been lifted from his heart.
Yuan Shu patted Guan Yu's hand and said, "Okay, you and I, brothers, there is no need to say more."
"You will be innocent from now on, and there is nothing to worry about anymore."
Zhang Fei also said from the side: "Congratulations, second brother."
Wen Nu: "Today is a happy day. There are good food and wine here. Why not have a drink?"
Then he personally poured wine for Yuan Shu and the others. In the end, he was the happiest person here. After all, his urgent need was solved, not only his position was saved. He also saved the lives of his own family, but to say that he owed Yuan Shu a huge favor was huge.
Yuan Shu: "Brother Wen is right, come and have a drink!"
When the remaining three people saw Yuan Shu raising his wine glass, they also raised their wine glasses, and then they touched each other and said "Cheers!"
After this banquet, everyone got what they wanted most, and even they didn't expect that they would get their wish so easily at first.
Wen Nu was already prepared for heavy bleeding, but he didn't expect Yuan Shu to be so benevolent and not to add insult to injury to him.
He didn't even ask himself to promise anything, he just asked himself to do a small symbolic favor.
Although everyone clearly knew that this was just a transaction, this also made Wen Nu feel a little more grateful to Yuan Shu in his heart.
