"Sima Yi is here?" Wang Baoyu was shocked, sure enough, the general trend of history is unstoppable, and Sima Yi, a heavyweight, finally appeared on the stage!

"He took Cao Hong and Cao Zhen, two generals, led the post of governor of the southern capital, led an army of 100,000, and has been stationed in Pingchun for 100 days." Liu Ba said.

"100 days? Why don't I know the slightest news? Wang Baoyu asked in surprise.

"This person is very low-key, and I also sent people to inquire many times before I learned the details." Liu Ba explained.

Well, Wang Baoyu nodded solemnly: "Sima Yi is very cunning, so you can't guard against it." ”

"I came here this time because I want to discuss two things with King Hanxing." Liu Ba got up again and arched his hand, his expression stern.

"Say it!"

"First, I hope that Xiangyang and Shangyong can become an alliance and jointly guard against Cao's army." Liu Badao.

"Okay, you can agree to this, but when you don't fight, you still have to keep your distance." Wang Baoyu nodded.

"Second, the grain and grass of the soldiers and horses of Shangyong are insufficient, and I hope to exchange the minerals of Shangyong for the grain and grass of Yiling." Liu Ba said again.

Wang Baoyu frowned, in the era of war and chaos, food is the first strategic resource, unless there are special circumstances, he is not willing to give it to others.

Seeing that Wang Baoyu didn't speak for a long time, Liu Ba blinked his cunning eyes, and continued: "Today, at the foot of Pingtou Mountain in the northwest of Shangyong, I found a place where oil can be burned on water, and I think King Hanxing must be interested in this thing. ”

Isn't that the grease that can be burned on the water just oil? Wang Baoyu really became interested, the fire burned Xinye back then, thanks to this thing, but the mineral deposit near Xinye County had already been excavated, but I didn't expect Shangyong to dig up oil again, and it would not hurt to reserve more.

"Okay, I agreed to this matter, you can discuss it with Master Mo!" Wang Baoyu nodded, called Mo Qianxun, and secretly instructed, Mo Qianxun went to another room with Liu Ba to bargain.

From time to time in the house, Liu Ba's voice was suddenly raised, hehe, with Mo Qianxun's eloquence and outstanding business acumen, Wang Baoyu firmly believed that Liu Ba would not take too much advantage.

After discussing for a few days, Mo Qianxun came up with a cooperation agreement, not only for mediocre oil, but also for mediocre iron ore and copper ore.

Liu Ba was a little unhappy, obviously talking about oil before. At that time, people's understanding and utilization of oil was very insufficient, but iron ore and copper ore have always had a high value, which is purely an overlord clause.

Mo Qianxun sneered, if he didn't agree, Yiling wouldn't be reluctant, and Mr. Liu Ba could find another seller.

Liu Ba was very embarrassed, because except for Yiling, no one else would buy this black oil, and even in the eyes of the common people, this thing was very unlucky. After thinking about it again and again, Liu Ba was ruthless, and it was decided! However, the price must be fair and not cheap.

Mo Qianxun smiled, this is exactly the next question to be discussed. Yiling purchases these resources, and the price is naturally reasonable, but it is not exchanged for food, but money, and it is not bad for money.

Liu Ba agreed, and did not insist on the question of money or food, and the grain and grass for raising soldiers were supplied by Xichuan, and what he said was just a reason.

When Mo Qianxun's conditions were finally finished, Liu Ba also put forward a request, hoping to establish a business fast track to promote the circulation of materials between the two places. Mo Qianxun agreed, the development of business can only develop faster.

Wang Baoyu recognized and reassured Mo Qianxun's ability in this regard, and immediately asked him to start handling this matter, and at the same time asked him to send someone north to secretly monitor Sima Yi's every move.

Mo Qianxun and Liu Ba are both doers, extremely efficient, the speed of the project is fast, tens of thousands of barrels of oil are constantly transported to Fancheng, which is regarded as strategic materials and secretly stored.

At the same time, a large amount of gold and silver also fell into Liu Ba's hands as scheduled, and the old man couldn't close his mouth, and dealing with Yiling was happy!

With money in hand, the business channel was quickly opened, and there was less inventory in the middle, and the economies of the two places began to become active. Driven by Yiling, the economy is also undergoing earth-shaking changes.

Yiling is full of vitality, not only the living are concerned, but even the deceased are yearning for it.

On this day, Sun Quan, in accordance with the previous agreement with Wang Baoyu, sent the general Gan Ning to deliver the first batch of spiritual positions of the fallen generals in Jiangdong to Yiling, a total of six.

Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Cheng Pu, and Tai Shici were among them, and Sun Quan may have been out of Laipi's thoughts, and there were even Lu Meng and Jiang Qin in it.

Wang Baoyu felt very uncomfortable when he saw it, and almost didn't let people throw it into the firewood and burn it. Gan Ning kept interceding for the two, and at the beginning, he was also his own master, hoping that King Hanxing would take the deceased for the sake of the deceased, so that the souls of the dead could rest in peace.

It was difficult for Sun Quan to think so thoughtfully for the two of them, and Wang Baoyu still placed these people in the floating tower of Yiling. Gan Ning successfully completed the task and happily returned to Jiangdong.

This night, the thunder was loud, the torrential rain was pouring, the thunder above Hanzhang Tower was the most violent, deafening, the mountain shook, and the fire girl was so frightened that she shrank into Wang Baoyu's arms, and she didn't dare to move.

"Hehe, what are you afraid of, it's all a natural phenomenon." Wang Baoyu comforted.

"Fortunately, Baoyu is by her side, otherwise, Huoya is afraid that she will be scared to death." Huo Ya said obediently.

Wang Baoyu was so noisy by the thunder that he couldn't sleep, pulled the fire girl up, stood in front of the window, and the lightning bolts were like tearing the sky, and the momentum was amazing. Looking south from the dense rain curtain, you can faintly see the Futu Tower, where there is also thunder rumbling and electric light.

A huge electric light penetrated through the north and south, followed by a completely loud sound that shook the sky, and suddenly a powerful cold wind blew open the window lattice and poured into the house, freezing Wang Baoyu couldn't help but feel a spirit.

Wang Baoyu hurriedly closed the window with all his might, turned around suddenly, and suddenly saw six men in armor standing neatly in the room, lined up, making a gesture of thanks.

Wang Baoyu was so frightened that his soul was about to fly, and before he could see the appearance of these people, these people disappeared in a flash, as if it had never happened.

"Huoya, did you see anyone in the house just now?" Wang Baoyu rubbed his eyes and asked.

"Nope!" Huoya shook her head suspiciously, and suddenly exclaimed, "Baoyu, you shouldn't see a ghost!" ”

"Damn, such a big thunderbolt, the ghost is going to be scared away!" Wang Baoyu said disdainfully, but the fire girl was afraid to pull Wang Baoyu back into the quilt, and never dared to show her head again.

The thunder and lightning and the torrential rain finally stopped, the night sky gradually cleared, and in the western sky, a star was unusually shining, but in less than half an hour, the star became dim and finally disappeared.
