Chapter 17 Wei Yan is screaming

"Okay, I'll send someone to sell the horses, and send someone to make some cloths and send them to buy clothes for Mrs. Wei's wife."

Although Liu was surprised, he still agreed.

As for the Han style, it is difficult for people to worry about.

As long as this young man is not a prodigal son, helping relatives and friends is nothing. Not only is it not a bad thing, but it can be called open-minded and righteous.

Liu was relieved to see Guan Ping so open-minded. He even said in his heart, "I am worthy of being the son of my father."

Then Liu ordered people to do things, and then went back to weave cloth. Guan Ping also went back to practice martial arts without mentioning it. However, Liu ordered a few old soldiers to go south to Xiangyang to sell horses.

These old men were really unhappy.

These old soldiers are interested in the Guan family, but the Guan family does not have many horses. They sold two horses to help Wei Yan, which really made these old soldiers feel distressed.

But this was the mistress's order, and the old soldiers were helpless. However, they were foolish and went south to sell horses, and went to the Han River to find Guan Yu to report the matter.

When these old soldiers came, Guan Yu was dressed as a fisherman, taking a boat and fishing in a net. He was from Hedong County, which was close to the Yellow River.

Guan Yu is good at fighting Xiaoshui and can also catch fish. At this moment, he is very quick to do his old career.

Many soldiers in his army were dispersed and took small boats to fish, including young men such as Zhou Xiong and Li Fei.

The Han River is a big river, with merchant ships coming and going, and fishermen fishing, which is very lively.

Guan Yu had just gotten off the net and netted many big fish, one of which weighed five or six pounds. Guan Yu also had a little smile on his hard face.

Just as he continued his efforts, he suddenly heard the soldiers coming to report. Guan Yu could only frown and put down the net, and ordered the soldiers to drive the boat to the dock. From a distance, he saw several disabled old soldiers in his family waiting with two horses.

"What's the matter?" Guan Yu asked.

"Report to the Lord." An old soldier in the head bent down and saluted, and then told Guan Yu about the incident. Guan Yu smiled and said, "My eldest son is generous."

Then Guan Yu said, "Brother Wei is a loyal brother who works for his elder brother. My elder brother and I are like brothers. Helping my elder brother is to help me. Don't worry too much, take the horse to Xiangyang and sell it to Brother Wei."

"No." The old soldiers wanted to secretly visit Chen Cang and asked Guan Yu, but they didn't expect it to be like this. They couldn't help but look at each other, and then agreed and took the horse to Xiangyang to sell horses.

A few days later, these old men came back with a lot of carts of food.

War horses are not expensive in Youzhou and Liangzhou in the north. You can buy a good horse with one gold. If you sell it to Chang'an, Luoyang, it will be worth five or six gold, and if you come to Jiangnan, it will be worth ten gold.

One gold can be exchanged for 30,000 yuan.

You can buy one pound of rice for ten yuan. One hundred and twenty pounds of rice is equal to one stone.

Twenty gold can buy five hundred stones of grain. Of course, those old soldiers couldn't bring back so much grain, so they hired a large cart of manpower and spent some money.

In short, two war horses can be exchanged for 500 stones of grain. The food Liu Biao provided to Liu Bei was only 500 stones per month.

These old soldiers led the convoy to outside the military area inside the south city gate. After hearing the news, Wei Yan came outside the door and saw several old soldiers carrying large chariots, he was very surprised.

"Is this?" Wei Yan said in surprise.

"It's so that Lord Wei can know. My mistress and the young general knew that Lord Wei was in trouble, so he ordered us to go south to Xiangyang to sell two horses at home, and buy back the grain and hand it over to Lord Wei."

The old soldier in the leader was still unwilling to give Wei Yan too much good expression, and said neither humble nor arrogantly.

"This, how did this make it?" Wei Yan was a little anxious. He was a person with good face. It was already a pity to borrow money from Guan Yu's house. He had no money at home, but he wanted to sell his horse to help him. Why don't I, Wei Yan, have been told to die?

The old soldiers didn't say much, but just clasped their fists at Wei Yan, left the cart and the person who pulled the cart, and handed it over to Wei Yan for disposal.

"Oh, I owe a lot of money to my elder brother." Wei Yan was stunned for a while, sighed, and finally accepted the batch of food.

Guan Ping guessed very well. If the Guan family only sent two horses, Wei Yan, who was so handsome, would definitely send them back. But with so much food, it would be very troublesome to transport them.

This family sold the horse and bought the grain and sent it. What's the matter if you sent the grain back? Do you want to sell the grain and buy the horse and sent it back?

Wei Yan could only record this favor and accept the food. After Wei Yan accepted the food, he felt relieved.

With so much food, plus the monthly distribution of the lord, it would take a long time to cook it. After being relieved, Wei Yan remembered that he might not be able to get rid of the pot. So he took fifty kilograms of rice from the food, got on his horse and took his entourage back home.

It was dark at this moment, and Wei Yan planned to pass by at home in the evening. Wei Yan was very serious about military affairs. Since leading the troops, he has lived in the military camp and rarely returned home.

This time he came back, he alarmed the Wei family. Mrs. Wei brought a few children and a few old soldiers to the door to welcome Wei Yan.

Mrs. Wei and several children and several old soldiers were much worse than those of the Guan family, and they were all very thin. Seeing this, Wei Yan felt a little ashamed, but when she saw that Mrs. Wei and several children had new clothes, she frowned and asked, "Where did the new clothes come from?"

"Husband, this is the clothes sent by Mrs. Liu." Mrs. Wei was always afraid of Wei Yan, and at this moment she lowered her head and said timidly.

Liu also became more concise and made clothes and brought them over, without giving them cloth.

Wei Yanben suspected that his wife had privately taken the money from the family to make clothes, and was a little angry. But when he heard this, he sighed and said, "I understand."

"Hey, I, Wei Yan, not only can't even fill my soldiers' stomachs, but even my wife and children are hungry and cold."

Xinye is not big, but this matter is really not small.

People can't help but praise Liu's heart is broad, but Guan Ping is so open-minded at a young age.

Even Liu Bei heard about this.

On that morning, the sky was clear. Liu Bei and Sun Qian sat opposite each other in the study. There was a table table, and there was a chessboard on the table table. The two black and white boys on the chessboard strangled each other.

Liu Bei held the black man and said, "My nephew is open-minded and has the spirit of being a father."

"It's really rare for Guan Ping to be like this at a young age." Sun Qian held the white boy in his hand and said, "I'm going to pinch his beard."

In the Han Dynasty, I cared about good reputation very much. The so-called filial and honest officials were selected to select filial and honest people as officials, and there were also various good reputations such as humility.

Like Kong Rong gave pears.

Only when a person has a good reputation can he become famous throughout the country. Guan Ping sells his horse to his uncle at a young age, which is really a little famous. If it can be spread, Guan Ping can be respected wherever he goes from now on.

Of course, Guan Ping himself didn't think so much.

He just wanted to help Liu Bei, Wei Yan and other civil and military officials of Shu Han.

After Liu Bei and Sun Gan discussed Guan Pingzhi, Liu Bei also thought of something and put the black piece in the chess box and stopped playing.

Then he got up and walked a few steps, turned around and asked Sun Gan, "Gongyou, otherwise I would sell the horse for food, too?"
