"I think it's fine!"
Cao Bin thought about it seriously and was the first to give an answer.
Actually, he had no choice but to agree.
Otherwise, would they wait for Zhang Mu to slaughter the Cao Family for Yuan Shu?
The Cao family was powerless to resist now!
If he agreed to Zhang Mu's request, not only would he be able to resolve this crisis, but he would also be able to keep the position of Pei Country's commandant in his hands. It would be good whether he wanted to plant his own people or win them over.
As for the position of Jiujiang's prefect, it was on par with the Pei Country's Prime Minister. In a sense, it was even better than the position of a commandant.
But what did this have to do with him, Cao Bin, and the Cao family?
Jiujiang County wasn't theirs to begin with, so there was nothing to regret.
"I will write a letter to Eldest Brother. He has a good relationship with General Che Ji, so it won't be a problem for him to write a letter.”
In order to show his sincerity, Cao Bin decided to let Cao Cao do his best.
Zhang Mu nodded lightly and looked at Zhou Ang and Zhou Yu.
Zhou Ang was a little hesitant. Jiujiang County was a path of retreat that he had left for himself. He felt that it was a pity to agree to give it to Zhang Mu.
However, he thought that if he did not agree, he might lose his life. Moreover, he was about to be promoted to the governor of Yuzhou. If he had Zhang Mu's support and help, it would be much more stable. Moreover, if the latter became the governor of Jiujiang under his advice, he would be considered one of his own.
"I can also send a letter to General Che Ji and recommend Ziyu to be the prefect of Jiujiang. I believe that with Ziyu's achievements, there will definitely be no problem.”
Zhou Ang made his decision.
The prefect of Jiujiang was a third-grade general who could open a general's mansion.
In a peaceful world, the Zhang family had spent countless connections and money to let Zhang Muju have a filial and honest background. It would probably take ten years of hard work for him to reach this step. He also needed to follow the right people and have achievements.
During the Han Ling Emperor's era, the price was two thousand gold coins. If the benefits given to the Shi Chang Shi and He Jin were included, it would probably be more than five thousand gold coins. Not to mention that Jiujiang's location was not bad, and its value was not too much.
But in this era, Zhang Mu 'followed' Yuan Shao. If the time was right, he could reach the heavens in one step.
It should be known that Liu Bei was only the Prime Minister of Pingyuan, Cao Cao was only the Governor of Dongjun, and Sun Jian was still Yuan Shu's lackey.
"In that case, let's leave this matter as it is." Zhang Mu revealed a relieved smile and said,""Write the letter and give it to me. I will send someone to deliver it.”
"After this matter is completed, I will give the Cao Family 2000 gold coins as compensation for their hard work and subsidize the Provincial Governor with 50,000 dan of grain. 2000 gold coins and 8,000 Pei Army soldiers will stay behind.”
How was it?
Now that you're the knife and we're the fish, we can only agree.
However, Cao Bin was not angry. He was even somewhat grateful to Zhang Mu. After all, the Cao family would have been destroyed by the Yellow Turban sent by Yuan Shu. It was thanks to Zhang Mu that they escaped.
Moreover, Zhang Mu was willing to return 2,000 gold.
As for food, wasn't the food of Pei Country the same as the Cao Family's food?
Zhou Ang, on the other hand, was happy. He was happy that Zhang Mu had called him the provincial governor, and he was happy that he could get money, food, and soldiers. This was more precious than anything else.
...........
Fifteen minutes later, Zhou Ang and Cao Bin finished writing their letters.
Zhang Mu and Guo Jia looked at it separately, and after confirming that there were no mistakes, they had the two of them add their own seals on it. The former also added the provincial governor's seal.
After obtaining these, Zhang Mu sent the three of them to the entrance of the Provincial Governor's Estate.
When the carriage with the three of them disappeared around the corner of the street, a bright smile appeared on Zhang Mu's face. He turned to Guo Jia and said,"Fengxiao, my acting skills are not bad, right?”
He had said so much just now to make Yuan Shu the scapegoat and to express that he wanted to follow Yuan Shao. His goal was to obtain the position of Jiujiang Prefecture.
Zhang Mu had to learn this move from Boss Cao.
The Yuan family was the descendants of the four generations of the three dukes. Their background, fame, achievements, and influence were all top-notch in the world. They had many students and old officials, such as Han Fu from Jizhou.
During this period, rather than saying that the Zhuolu clan was full of heroes and dukes, it was better to say that Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were fighting within the clan to determine the victor.
The Central Plains was a battleground for the militarists, and it belonged to Yuan Shu, the direct descendant of the Yuan Family.
The land north of the Yellow River was given to Yuan Shao, the most outstanding disciple of the Yuan family.
Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Liu Yu of Youzhou, Liu Yan of Yizhou, and Liu Yao of Yangzhou were all relatives of the Han clan, but now they were all watching from the sidelines.
This might have something to do with their ambition, but it was also because they were not strong enough.
And Dong Zhuo was also on the side.
Now was the era of the two Yuan dynasties. Sun Jian, Liu Bei, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan, Tao Qian, and Kong Rong were all Yuan Shao's or Yuan Shu's henchmen. They could only secretly accumulate strength.
Compared to these people, Zhang Mu wasn't as stubborn.
Just follow Boss Cao's example. With modern time and space as the backing, the only thing they lacked was time.
"Jia, I admire you so much." Guo Jia cupped his hands.
These words came from the bottom of his heart.
Cao Bin and the other two weren't stupid, but they were fooled by Zhang Mu.
The perfect planning contributed the most, but Zhang Mu's acting skills also contributed 30%.
"Let's go. Go back and write a letter to your friends who work for Yuan Shao. Make sure that the position of prefect is secure.”
"Then, we will continue our bet and eat red braised pork.”
Zhang Mu was in a good mood, but he didn't forget to exploit Guo Jia's value.
Guo Jia cursed Zhang Mu's black-hearted boss in his heart, but he could only accept the exploitation.
However, Guo Jia had only written half of the letter when Zhang Mu received a report from a servant that Cao Bin had sent a big gift.
"Big gift?"
"What gift?"
Zhang Mu's face was full of doubt, but he still followed the servant to the front courtyard.
A person dressed like a butler was waiting in the lobby.
"Greetings, Lord Zhang." Cao Qing bowed when he saw Zhang Mu.
"What did the Minister send?" Zhang Mu asked.
"Milord, it was a beautiful woman." Cao Qing leaned over and smiled." The family head wanted to enjoy it himself, but he remembered that you came to Qiao County not long after your wedding. Everyone around you is serving you, so he specially asked me to send this woman here."”
Beautiful woman?
Could there be leftover women in the Han Dynasty?
Even if there was, it wouldn't be a beauty's turn to do it.
So Cao Bin sent a widow over?
Damn, did he think he was a thief?
This wasn't part of what he learned from Boss Cao!
P.S. Otherwise, the readers would be jealous…Ah pui, it was spurned, wasn't it?
