"The third brother now has a big business in Yongchang County. The annual income from his rubber plantation can equal half of Yuzhou. He also has family to take care of. It is understandable that he does not want to contact us." Liu Bei said.

"It shouldn't be like this. The third brother knows the wisdom of the elder brother and will never give up easily, so he doesn't want to contact us. The three of us have become brothers of the opposite sex, but the third brother and Liu Xin have also been playmates since childhood, and he doesn't want to contact us either.

I am willing to be Liu Xin's enemy, especially now that he is about to dominate the world.

The situation in the world is now stable, and Liu Xin's talent is completely beyond our imagination. It cannot be solved by relying on force. The Han Dynasty will usher in prosperity, and our brothers..." Guan Yu stopped here and looked at Liu Bei. He knew that what he said meant a lot to Liu Bei.

The impact will be huge.

"I know! My second brother has been in the peerless bottleneck for a long time. Have you ever found the door to the peerless world?" Liu Bei seemed to take everything lightly. He asked about Guan Yu's martial arts.

"Since entering the bottleneck, I dare not slack off for a day, but how can it be so easy to detect the peerless realm? It is rumored that Liu Xin has entered the peerless world, and Yangzhou Sun Ce has confirmed it. I did not expect that Liu Xin's strength would improve to such an extent. He

His talent is actually only average." Guan Yu said.

"Liu Xin asked his main generals to return to Shu County Academy to teach at the end of the year. Zhuge Liang talked with me today. Liu Xin means to help these generals break through the peerless world. His third brother is also on the list.

Zhuge Liang couldn't bear to see you being delayed, so he came to me and asked you to accompany Huang Xu to Xiangyang City. Then you can follow Huang Xu back to Shu County! Huang Xu and his third brother are in the Shu County Academy. If they ask Liu Xin

, it is not impossible for Liu Xin to help you break through the peerless world." Liu Bei said and drank the wine in the glass.

"Brother, what will you do if I leave?" Guan Yu looked at Liu Bei and asked.

"I am very safe here in Nanyang. I don't need your protection. You have made a breakthrough in the Shu County Academy. It doesn't matter if my eldest brother joins you when the time comes!" Liu Bei said with a smile.

Guan Yu knew that Liu Bei was giving himself a chance to choose. If he insisted on staying in Yuzhou and waiting for the chaos in the land ruled by Liu Xin, Liu Bei would definitely insist. If he left, then the great cause in Liu Bei's heart would be completely over!

"Brother!" Guan Yu couldn't help but look at Liu Bei and shouted.

"Eldest brother, I am already over 40 years old, and Adou is still just a toddler. If you, second brother, can't break through, your strength will inevitably decline in ten years at most, and turn into a pile of loess within thirty years.

If you break through the peerless world, you can still contribute to my big man for a few years, how can I miss such an opportunity?" Liu Bei said sincerely.

Guan Yu naturally wanted to go to Shu County. He had always been curious about what Shu County, which was highly respected by the world, would be like. Huang Xu and Guan Yu often competed. Zhuge Liang also cherished talents. If he missed this opportunity, there would be no possibility of breaking through the peerless world in the future.

.

Guan Yu handed over his soldiers to Zhou Cang and Liao Hua. Zhou Cang finally broke through to the first level last year. In this way, Zhuge Liang also obtained two generals. After Zhou Tai, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Huang Xu, and Zhang Ren went to Shu County Academy, Yuzhou could

The strength of the generals used will be greatly reduced.

April 4th is a perfect spring day in Xiangyang! Zhang Yun is discussing this year's chamber of commerce affairs with the heads of the Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce in Fuzhong. Other chambers of commerce in Yizhou have become more active in Jingzhou in recent years. They have greatly reduced the prices of goods in Jingzhou, making the Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce unable to do so.

If the price is not lowered, but a few days ago, silkworm farmers across Jingzhou caused riots and wanted to increase the purchase price of raw silk. Although Zhang Yun was unwilling, these silkworm farmers could secretly sell the raw silk to other chambers of commerce, which gave him a headache.

The guard came to report that it was Huang Xu who was visiting. Zhang Yun did not react for a while. Huang Xu was a core figure under Liu Xin and was serving as Zhuge Liang's deputy in Yuzhou. What did he want to do at this time? Could it be that he was supporting Liu Qi?

?

Zhang Yun and Liu Qi have been fighting even more fiercely this year. Apart from the fact that they have not sent troops to fight openly, both sides are embarrassing each other for the caravan trade. Zhang Yun occupies the northern and eastern areas of Jingzhou, while Liu Qi occupies the western and southern counties. Until now

Zhang Yun's power is not much greater than that of Liu Qi. What's more, Zhang Yun has to give up part of the interests of the Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce to the Jingzhou family that supports him. He is just Liu Cong's spokesperson.

"Please invite Mr. Huang to come in quickly... No, I will invite him personally!" Zhang Yun hurriedly tidied up his clothes and walked out of the house. This time Huang Xuneng came to see him specifically, and the meaning was not simple.

When they arrived outside the mansion, Zhang Yun saw that Huang Xu was waiting there with only one person. As one of the few strong men in the world, Huang Xu rarely brought any guards although he was a civil servant.

"I've seen Mr. Huang! Is this... Guan Yunchang?" Zhang Yun couldn't help but asked when he saw the nine-foot-tall Guan Yu behind Huang Xu.

Guan Yu, the most publicly known general in the world, was actually protecting Huang Xu. Could it be that the two of them were sent by Liu Xin to solve the problem in Jingzhou? Thinking of this, Zhang Yun couldn't help but feel a little scared!

"President Zhang! I returned to Shu County on the order of my lord. I passed by Xiangyang City and paid a visit to President Zhang. I didn't disturb President Zhang, right?" Huang Xu spoke very politely.

"No, no... Mr. Huang, please come in!" Zhang Yun invited Huang Xu to enter the house.

After entering the mansion, Zhang Yun asked Huang Xu to sit down, but Huang Xu did not refuse.

"Today Ma Teng led the Ma clan to Shu County. Liangzhou and Yongzhou have already submitted to the rule of our lord. According to our plan for Yizhou, my lord Liu Xin will ascend the throne in the second year of the Ming Dynasty. Before that, the Central Plains can

Unification is the best.

Zhuge Kongming asked me to pass by Xiangyang to meet you and let me bring you some words. In Yizhou, all major government departments are not allowed to have their own chambers of commerce and caravans. This is to prevent the government from harming the people due to their conflicts of interests.

Benefit.

My master Liu Xin is willing to wait for the outcome of the Jingzhou decision, and Yizhou officials are not willing to wait. Chairman Zhang had better think carefully. If you want to do business, then do business well, and if you want to be an official, don't think about the caravan.

." Huang Xu said bluntly that he had nothing to be tactful about Zhang Yun. Being able to go to Xiangyang today is already taking care of him. Otherwise, as long as Liu Xin sends a general or counselor to help Liu Qi, the Jingzhou family will naturally submit to him.

Under Liu Xin, Zhang Yun would have nothing to do without him!

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Master Liu, our Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce has never harmed the interests of Yizhou! My uncle Liu Biao..."

"Don't talk about Liu Biao. If it were Liu Biao at this time, he would definitely know how to choose. We hope that President Zhang can make a choice before the end of this year. The position of Jingzhou Mu is no longer so important. Yizhou officials will rotate in five years. I

I suggest President Zhang to study the Shu County Newspaper more, it will be very beneficial to you." Huang Xu said to Zhang Yun.

These words were already very harsh. Zhang Yun thought that he had understood Liu Xin's policy and hoped that each state could retain its own unique style and culture, but this style and culture did not hinder the development of Jingzhou. Zhang Yun wanted to let the Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce monopolize Jingzhou

Regarding business, other chambers of commerce are not allowed to make money here. It seems that they are not willing to let Yizhou take money away from Jingzhou. In fact, they are enriching themselves and earning money from the people of Jingzhou.

Liu Xin was too lazy to deal with Zhang Yun's matter. He would definitely lose the support of the people as soon as the time came, but scribes like Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, Xu Shu, Huang Xu and others could not wait any longer.

Liangzhou, Yongzhou has surrendered, Yanzhou is in the process of surrendering, and Yizhou officials will gradually be in place by the end of this year. Zhuge Liang is responsible for these. Jingzhou is adjacent to Yizhou, and Yangzhou has completely surrendered. Zhuge Liang and the others are not willing to wait any longer.

If this warning doesn't work, then Zhuge Liang may actually take action.

Seeing that Huang Xu refused to mention Liu Biao, Zhang Yun knew that Zhuge Liang's patience with them was almost gone. Liu Xin had already captured Liangzhou, so the threat from the grassland had basically been resolved. As long as the Yizhou cavalry was in Liangzhou, the Central Plains would be fighting with the various ethnic groups in the grassland.

The struggle will take the initiative. Liu Xin can attack the most powerful Huns and Xianbei in the grassland from Liangzhou at will, so he can now focus on the unification of the Central Plains.

"This matter... is not something that Zhang alone can decide!" Zhang Yun was unwilling to give up control of northern Jingzhou. If this happened, the income of the Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce would be reduced by more than half, and the Jingzhou Chamber of Commerce would become a second-rate chamber of commerce.

"I'm not negotiating with you, I'm just bringing you the words. That's it for now, so I won't bother you anymore!" Huang Xu left after saying that.

Zhang Yun watched Huang Xu leave and did not get up for a long time. As Yizhou became stronger and stronger, their words became stronger and tougher. In recent years, the counties in southern Jingzhou ruled by Liu Qi have developed rapidly. Liu Biao once served in Shu County.

At most, only 20% of the bank's loans were actually used on the people, and the rest went into the pockets of aristocratic families. Liu Qi used all the loans on the construction of Jingzhou, which is why Liu Qi is becoming more powerful now.

While Huang Xu was visiting Zhang Yun, Xi Zhicai had quietly arrived in Jizhou. Although Jizhou has not prevented the Yizhou Chamber of Commerce from entering for so many years, it has always implemented a policy of oppression against the people, and the people in Jizhou are still relatively poor.

After sending the greetings, Xi Zhicai soon met Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu was sitting on a high chair, looking at Xi Zhicai below.

"Meet General Zhang!" Xi Zhicai bowed to Zhang Xiu.

"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?" Zhang Xiu smiled and asked.

Zhang Xiu is now the King of Wei, but Xi Zhicai calls him Zhang Xiu, General Zhang. This is already disrespectful to Zhang Xiu in the eyes of others.

"I came to Yecheng today specifically to save General Zhang. If General Zhang kills me, he will end his own life. I don't think General Zhang will do this!" Xi Zhicai said.

"With Cao Cao's strength, I'm afraid he can't say such big words. You should be Liu Xin's lobbyist, right?" Zhang Xiu said.

"General Zhang can think so, but this trip to Jizhou is just to play on a certain person's behavior and has nothing to do with Yizhou.

General Liu has already captured the Qiang grassland and Liangzhou, and General Zhang must have known about it. In the next two years, General Liu will definitely ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. Zhuge Kongming, Guo Fengxiao, Xu Yuanzhi and others are all preparing for this. General Liu's ability will last forever.

It's rare to meet someone. To become the emperor of our Han Empire is to comply with destiny.

And General Liu doesn't want to see our Han states fighting each other, so he has never attacked any princes. If General Zhang is unwilling to let Jizhou surrender peacefully, even if General Liu is unwilling to use troops, his subordinates and generals will probably not let Zhang go.
