Cao Zhen's mansion.
In the front yard, in the main hall.
As soon as Sun Qian and Mi Zhu arrived, they understood why the Second Young Master didn't go to the bridal chamber-he was just a child!!
What was even more surprising was that this child already knew that he wanted a woman!
Amazing!
For such a young child to have such a wild path, it could only be said that he was indeed the son of Cao Gong. He was definitely not ordinary.
" Uh, Second, Second Young Master…"
"Tsk!" Cao Zhen immediately raised his head and frowned." Don't stutter every time you call me! You're only stupid! Your whole family is stupid!"
"This…"
Aiyo, this child has a bad temper.
"Second Young Master, I am Sun Qian and this is Mei Zhu. May I know why Second Young Master has summoned me?”
"Can't I have tea with you?”
Cao Zhen happily lay down on the main seat and asked someone to serve meat and wine.
Although it was late at night, Cao Zhen was a champion of staying up late. How could he be afraid of having a long chat with others?
However, Sun Qian and Mei Zhu were very touched.
Especially Sun Qian, who could read people's expressions. He knew immediately that the Second Young Master was indeed here for the matter of Xu Prefecture. Moreover, holding a banquet, drinking, and chatting were all things that a ruler and his subordinates did to improve their relationship.
She was only nine years old, but she was willing to spend her sleeping time to improve her relationship with you. There was no need to say how much she valued you, right?
He was touched!
In ancient times, Gan Luo became prime minister at the age of twelve. Today, there are two young masters who recruit people at the age of nine!
These were all child prodigies, one of them rarely seen in history.
"Uncles, please take a seat."
Cao Zhen made an inviting gesture.
Only then did they notice that on the seat to Cao Zhen's right, there was an honest scholar sitting.
However, he sat upright like a pine tree, giving off the feeling of a vast mountain. He had a smile on his face, revealing a kind aura." This is the general of my Chen Liu Dian Nong, Lord Mao Jie.”
Qianzhao and Dian Wei stood on Cao Zhen's left and right. This introduction was from Qianzhao.
Compared to Dian Wei's bravery, this Qianzhao was calmer and more mature.
He has the demeanor of a general.
Sun Qian and Mi Zhu immediately felt deep respect for him. This was incredible. The person who had proposed to open up wasteland and farm to accumulate military resources so that the 300,000 Yellow Turban bandits in Yanzhou could settle down was Mao Jie.
He was now very famous in the north, and his name shook the world. Even Guo Si and Li Jue, who were far away in Chang 'an, were envious of him.
They had a bad harvest this year, and the people there were already in dire straits.
"Oh, greetings Mao Zhonglang."
Mao Zhonglang, who was worth 1,000 koku, was definitely a high-ranking official to them. He was no less than Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong in Xu Prefecture.
"Could it be that Zhonglang and Second Young Master are master and disciple?”
Amazing…
Sun Qian was quick-witted. Seeing that the two of them were still gathered together in the middle of the night, it was obvious that they were here to discuss some important matter or strategy.
It was likely that the Duke of Cao had handed his son over to Mao Zhonglang to teach. In the future, he would definitely be rich and noble. He might even be able to manage two thousand koku or even be conferred the title of marquis!
Mao Jie's expression became strange for a moment, and he took a sip of tea in a neither cold nor indifferent manner, then slowly said,"Not bad, you actually saw through it. Gongyou's eyesight is superb.”
Cao Zhen smiled and waved his hand." Forget it. There's no need to say anything more. I only have this one disciple.”
" Haha, Second Young Master is too humble. To be able to be a disciple of-"
" Huh?!"
Sun Qian's smile suddenly froze. He looked at Mao Jie, then looked at Cao Zhen.
His throat seemed to have been choked by something for a moment, and he let out a squeaking sound. After a long time, he slowly said,"Uh, you, you're a teacher?"
Mao Jie nodded," That's right, I'm Second Young Master's disciple. Gongyou, don't get the wrong idea.”
"This…"
Where was the logic in this…
You, who are close to 30 over 1000 dan, are taking a nine-year-old child as your teacher?!
Drunk?
Or are you talking nonsense with us?
Sun Qian had yet to recover from his shock.
Cao Zhen spoke again.
"The two of you, your family assets will help me. I will come from the main military power and have a camp. After that, I will develop and grow.”
It was simple and clear.
It was so domineering.
Sun Qian was stunned for a moment. He even felt that this was not something a child could say.
Was he that arrogant?
He actually threatened to ask for all my family assets to sponsor him?!
How could he need such funding?
"Second Young Master, this matter…can you allow me to consider it?”
"I can't." Cao Zhen was as overbearing as ever, not giving Sun Qian a chance to bargain. He then smiled and said,""When I obtain military power, I will definitely expand. Do you know how many achievements I can make next? Zhang Yang, Zhang Yan, Yuan Shu of Nanyang and Zhang Xiu are about to have a result. They will serve in Yangzhou and Jiangdong. There are so many places in the world. Do I have the time to consider?”
"If you give me money, it will be like investing in a company. I can consider it a great contribution for you. The situation in Xu Prefecture is not going well for you and Mi Zhu. I can guarantee you that when the time comes, Xu Prefecture will definitely be won by the plebeian faction.”
"Commoners Faction?"
Sun Qian's face was still filled with disbelief. Did this nine-year-old child really know so much?
Mao Jie indifferently added," To be honest, my strategy of opening up wasteland was taught by the Second Young Master. Now that we've compiled the ancient records, there's a numerical pattern that can be used to record the number of people. This was also taught by the Second Young Master.”
"The improvement of armaments, internal politics, and training methods, Second Young Master has his own good ideas. If the two of you have a better choice, you are free to go, but if you don't, you can consider it.”
