Chapter 975 There is no resentment if there is a borrowing

"For the time being, we can only gather 50,000 stones."

This number was determined by Chen Gong after studying it all night, and he would not change it easily.

Even if Lu Bu asks for it, Chen Gong will stick to the bottom line.

Lu Bu didn't scold Chen Gong.

For Chen Gong, Lu Bu has always trusted and respected him.

It was Chen Gong who helped him, and he almost occupied Yanzhou at the beginning, although he was defeated by Cao Cao later, but this has nothing to do with Chen Gong, it was Lu Bu himself, who fell into Cao Cao's tricks several times.

When he arrived in Xuzhou, Lu Bu was now able to occupy Xuzhou, and Chen Gong also made great efforts.

Without the help of Chen Gong, it would be difficult for Lu Bu to balance the relationship between the various families in Xuzhou. It was difficult for him to seize Xuzhou.

Since Chen Gong said that he could only take out 50,000 stones, Lu Bu believed this number.

But it is too different from Guo Jia's proposal.

Lu Bu still remembered Zhao Hui's help to him before.

When he was all the way, it was Zhao Hui who gave him the most soldiers and gave him the most grain and grass.

Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu, Cao Cao and others all sent him away like a plague god, and Yuan Shao even arranged for people to kill him.

Later, Zhao Hui wrote several times, all of which were the most correct choice for him.

Without the help of Chen Gong, it would be difficult for Lu Bu to occupy Xuzhou.

But without Zhao Hui's help, Lu Bu would have been defeated by now and was killed by Cao Cao.

Zhao Hui has never begged, this is the first time Zhao Hui wants to get Lu Bu's help, and Lu Bu also really wants to help Zhao Hui.

With the personalities of Zhao Hui and Lu Bu, it is actually very difficult to become a prince.

Even if it is done for a while, it will soon be defeated.

But they don't have it now, and Zhao Hui's power is getting bigger and bigger.

This is because Zhao Hui knows a lot of things in advance, and he knows the ability of Guo Jiajia and others.

If he only relied on his own force, Zhao Hui would be a fierce general at most.

Many of the policies he proposed in Youzhou and Jizhou, without the help of Xu Shu and others, Zhao Hui would not have been able to get them alone, and it would also cause chaos.

Those families are not vegetarians.

Lu Bu was not defeated because of Zhao Hui's suggestion. let him avoid Liu Bei Cao Cao's murder.

Lu Bu is not a person who is completely ignorant of the other party's good or bad.

Zhao Hui never promised him anything, but he helped him many times.

How can he give back to Zhao Hui this time.

"Gongtai rest assured, this time to borrow grain, Youzhou will soon send grain and grass to Xuzhou." Guo Jiadao.

Since he is here to borrow grain, Zhao Hui will not borrow or repay.

From Youzhou, the cost of transporting grain and grass to Yanzhou is too high.

Instead, it will be sent to Xuzhou first, and the loss will be lower when it is transferred from Xuzhou to Yanzhou.

After all, from Youzhou to Xuzhou, it can be transported by cargo ship.

It will be much more convenient, and it does not require too many people, cattle and horses.

In the port of Youzhou, a group of people were invited to deliver grain and grass to the cargo ship.

Then after the cargo ship docked in Xuzhou, a group of people were invited to move the grain and grass off the ship.

Thousands of miles of sea line, only the crew needs to be on board.

"Since there is grain and grass over there in Youzhou, there will be grain and grass delivered soon, Gongtai, can you see how much more grain and grass we can take out?" Lu Budao.

Chen Gong said: "I don't know how much grain and grass Fengxiao will transport from Youzhou to Xuzhou?" ”

Guo Jia said: "It's just more, not less." ”

If Lu Bu gave 50,000 stones, then the grain and grass transported from Youzhou would only exceed 50,000.

Chen Gong glanced at Lu Bu and said, "Then dare to ask Fengxiao, how long will it take for the grain and grass in Youzhou to be delivered?" ”

Guo Jia said: "If it's fast, it's a month, and if it's slow, it won't exceed February." ”

Chen Gong also almost knew the approximate time when Youzhou would transport grain and grass.

Guo Jia's estimate is about the same.

There are cargo ships that transport it and it takes less time than on land.

Two months is a long time.

Even if you go to Jiaozhou, you can get there in two months.

Chen Gong said: "I can raise 30,000 yuan, a total of 80,000 stone grain and grass, and let people transport it to Yanzhou." ”

Guo Jia said: "80,000 is enough, thank you Gongtai, on behalf of my father-in-law, thank the general for his help." ”

"Fengxiao, I and China are brothers, there is no need to say thanks, as long as I can do it, how can I refuse Brother China." Lu Bu said with a smile.

"The matter has been settled, and you will have a feast with me."

Lu Bu ordered a banquet to be held, and Zhao Yun was to be dragged to drink again.

Lu Bu did not doubt that Zhao Hui borrowed grain and grass, and he did not plan to pay it back if he would turn around.

Although Chen Gong was a little worried, he knew a little about the connection between Zhao Hui and Lu Bu after all.

It's just 80,000 stone grains and grass, and Zhao Hui shouldn't break with Lu Bu.

Chen Gong has followed Lu Bu for many years, and although Lu Bu is not a qualified monarch, Chen Gong is still willing to serve him.

Because Lu Bu also has his own advantages, which are valued by Chen Gong.

However, Chen Gong knew that if Zhao Hui did not return the grain and grass this time, then Lu Bu was very likely to break off relations with Zhao Hui.

If we meet in the future, we will be enemies.

Eighty thousand stones of grain and grass is already a large amount for Lu Bu.

However, the break with Zhao Hui was not because of the problem of grain and grass, but because of Zhao Hui's deception.

Lu Bu hates being deceived the most, even if he has deep feelings.

But if he finds out that he has been deceived, then he will immediately feel resentful.

Lu Bu couldn't bear it, he was sincere, but in exchange for deception and prevarication.

At the banquet, Guo Jia and Lu Bu drank together, but Song Xian, Hou Cheng and others were also drunkards, but the amount of wine was a little worse than Lu Bu.

Only Zhao Yun and Chen Gong drank the least.

Zhao Yun is the worst drinker, and he doesn't like to drink either.

It used to be a cup of pouring, but now it is a little better, but at any banquet, Zhao Yun basically only drinks three glasses.

Three glasses of wine, he can still stay sober, but the fourth glass, Zhao Yun will be confused.

In the fifth cup, people probably won't be able to stand up.

After the banquet, Chen Gong began to prepare grain and grass.

As for Lu Bu, he was drunk again, and was sent to the backyard by the maid to rest, and Diao Chan took care of him.

Guo Jia and Zhao Yun returned to the arranged courtyard to rest.

Early tomorrow morning, they will return to Puyang with grain and grass.

The night passed, and early the next morning, Zhao Yun and Guo Jia were in front of the city gate, ready to say goodbye to Lu Bu Chen Palace.

But Lu Bu hasn't gotten up yet.

There are now only Chen Gong and Zhang Liao at the gate of the city.

Song Xian, Hou Cheng and other generals were also drunk yesterday.

"Fengxiao, I just learned the news that Liu Biao has appointed Liu Bei as the Taishou of Xinye." Chen Gong said: "What do you think about this matter?" ”

Liu Bei entered Jingzhou, as early as before the news came out, Zhao Hui, Guo Jia and others had already discussed it a little.

"Liu Bei left last time, but now it is not so easy to return to Xuzhou. In my opinion, Mi Zhu and the others, who are still in Xiaopei, should set off in the near future and go to Xinye to meet Liu Bei. Guo Jiadao.
