"Thirty thousand gold! Lu Bu, the slave of the three surnames, is he crazy!" These gentry did not directly call Liu Mang the fake king like Pang Tong, because the Han Dynasty was still there, so they had to humiliate Yangzhou and could only pull Lu Bu out.

Lu Bu died unjustly in Lujiang, and they considered him a poor man who was crazy. The ransom had nothing to do with him, Lu Bu. Moreover, Liu Mang obviously wanted 10,000 gold, but when he entered Zhou Yu's hands, it turned into 30,000 gold after a moment of conversion.

"I don't know if this Lu Bu is crazy, but this 30,000 gold must be paid!" Zhang Zhao shook his head and said to the gentry below. The people in Yangzhou also knew that if they wanted to ask for food, Jiangdong would not be able to take it out. Not to mention that Sun Ce was thinking of using food and grass to trap Yangzhou. Just say that the Jiangdong Army and the Jingzhou Army are now confronting Jiangxia, and the Jiangdong Army itself also needs a large amount of food and grass. Otherwise, Jiangxia would really be trapped in Jiangdong when it was lost to Jiangdong.

Therefore, the letter sent by Yangzhou is also strict, as long as money is not enough, food and grass is not enough. But this money is difficult. Jiangdong has been in a state of war for so many years, and he has basically no money and has been fighting all his capital. Sun Ce, the lord, has begun to reduce his clothes and reduce his food, let alone others.

After Zhang Zhao's words, everyone below stopped talking. Many of the heads of the gentry were looking around or lowering their heads. The whole place was terriblely quiet.

"How should I take out this ten thousand gold for lord?" Sun Ce fought for years and did not have any extra money. Even if he had money, he would not reach out to these gentry members. If Zhou Yu had not stopped them, he would probably have all of these gentry members. A head of a gentry family next to him said this. But as soon as he said this, he was immediately glared at by other gentry families.

The head of the gentry seemed to know that he seemed to have said the wrong thing and wanted to make up for it. But Zhang Zhao didn't give him a chance!

"The head of the Xu family is right. The lord can no longer afford so much money!" Zhang Zhao asked someone to throw out the brick so that he could continue to express the following purpose.

"Second Young Master Yu Jiangdong, I believe everyone knows it! Everyone present did not want the second young master to die! That's why the lord entrusted Zhang to come and summon you, wanting you to give me some advice! Give me a reply!" Although Zhang Zhao did not mention anything about money, which of the gentry is not a human spirit? Now the second young master has been captured, and Lu Bu in Yangzhou needs money to exchange it for money. The lord has no money. You can't watch the second young master die, so only these ministers are left to raise money.

There are only a few dozen people in the scene now. If no one pays it, each person will have thousands of gold. The gentry in Jiangdong is not as rich as Jingzhou. Jiangdong is not as developed as Jingzhou. Thousands of gold are equivalent to cutting the flesh of these gentry in Jiangdong.

"Mr. Zhang Zhao, I should have no choice but to do the second son's affairs, but you also know that in recent years, natural disasters have been in constant war, so we have no money. We are just the second son. Cheng is a little frugal and wants to come to help the lord redeem the second son!" A head of the family surnamed Cheng stood up and said righteously.

"So, I am, the second young master has a deep affection for me! He will definitely repay me! My Liu family also took out a hundred gold coins!" These gentry were simply passionate and generously took out their money.

But Zhang Zhao next to him was sneering. He walked up and said, "My Zhang Zhao family spent three thousand golds to help his lord solve his problems!"

Zhang Zhao took out a thousand gold, and all the gentry below mocked in his heart, "There are stupid people, they have a lot of money, and they have a thousand gold, this is not a small number. They are all relying on retreat as an advance. Your lord has no money, but I took out the money, but I didn't ask me to take much. I gave you a thousand gold, and a hundred gold is also support. You can't say I didn't give it, right?"

"Mr. Zhang Zhao is so righteous. He can spend three thousand gold. Unlike our small families, we don't have much money!" Everyone was praising Zhang Zhao, but in fact they were mocking Zhang Zhao as a fool in their hearts. The more the Zhang family paid, the more they naturally wouldn't spend.

"Yes!" Zhang Zhao looked at the head of the family who was talking and walked up. "Head of the family, I still remember that Cheng's head has tens of acres of fertile land outside Jianye, and four courtyards!"

"Haha, that's all the foundation left by our ancestors. The weather has been good all these years, but the disasters have continued, and tens of millions of fertile land have been abandoned, and the four courtyards are just bunched!"

"Oh?" Even though there have been wars over the years and even if there is no good weather, this fertile land in Jiangdong is really not abandoned because as long as it is planted, it will naturally not lose money.

There are also the courtyards of Jianye. Those houses are worth hundreds of gold per house. The family club has no money, which is just a joke. If there is no money, then where did the money and food come from when the second son Sun Quan went to war?

"Oh, is it? Cheng's head is really living a life of slack off!" Zhang Zhao looked at Cheng's head with a smile. "Don't worry, head of Cheng's head, I will definitely tell the lord the words of Cheng's head, let the lord exempt the lord from the lord's head, and let the lord overcome the difficulties! Similarly, the second young master knew that Cheng's head was so generous and he would save the second young master, and would also give the lord the greatest help to Cheng's family in Kuaiji! That Jiangdong Yanyin would also give Cheng's head more!" Zhang Zhao said to Cheng's head with a smile.

Hearing Zhang Zhao's words, the head of Cheng not only did not have any happy thoughts, but instead made a clever and salt ray, which is a very profitable thing. The ancients' salt and iron are all in the hands of the government. People can eat less, but this salt cannot be lost. Without the supplement of salt, they will be weak all over. Therefore, those barbarians and foreign tribes also used various things to exchange salt with the Han people.

Salt citation is a qualification certificate for the gentry to sell salt. Only with this qualification certificate can you sell salt. Otherwise, if you can get it, even if you get it, as long as you dare to sell it, it will be a death sentence. For these salt merchants selling salt, salt citation is not valuable because they don’t get much salt citation, but with such a qualification certificate, it can cover up their selling of private salt.

Official salt is very expensive, private salt is very cheap. Basically everyone needs to eat salt. You can know how big the market is. Once you become serious and strictly check to get married, then selling private salt will really not be able to hide it. Whoever sells private salt will not participate in these private salts, but these are all unspoken rules. If you become serious, no one can escape.

If it were before, everyone didn't pay the money, they knew that the law would not blame the masses. They were all great gentry in Jiangdong. No matter how strong Sun Ce was, you would not dare to offend them all. But now that Zhang Zhao has started to name the name, it would be a natural bad thing! Just messing with your family, you can do this!

"Oh, forgot, forgot!" The head of the Cheng family suddenly shouted, and his face, which had just changed color, smiled again. "Suddenly I remembered that there were still a batch of jewelry left by the ancestors in the family! It was useless to keep it. It would be better to save the second young master! It can sell the two thousand gold!"

"Haha! It's a great sage!" Zhang Zhao said sarcastically, "I admire you for being able to take out the things left by my ancestors and come to rescue the second young master!"

"Where is it!" How could the head of the Cheng family not hear Zhang Zhao's mockery? Selling the things from his ancestors is a ruthless act. It is simply like a swear word, but the head of the Cheng family can only hold back with his nose.

"Haha, the head of Cheng donated two thousand gold!" Zhang Zhao took out a piece of paper and wrote it on.

The other gentry heads still didn't say a word, and Zhang Zhao named them one by one.

"Master Xu, your young master is still safe! The prison last few days can't scare Mr. Ling!" Zhang Zhao said that the young master of the Xu family was domineering and not only gave the wife and daughter to the Jiangdong, but also killed the four of him. This was a shocking case. Once it was made a fuss, the young master of the Xu family would definitely die without a burial place. In order to appease the people, Sun Ce would have to kill this person. The head of the Xu family had no use to deal with the matter. Sun Quan used his subordinates to take the blame for the young master of the Xu family, and even cleared it up and down. He even went to Sun Ce to plead for mercy and then rescued him.

If this kindness is not rewarded, it will naturally be considered an old account.

"I am also dizzy! Even if I sell my property, I have to contribute to the rescue of the second young master! My Xu family spends two thousand gold!" The family's property in front of me is larger than the Xu family. Cheng family can take out three thousand gold, while the Xu family can only use two thousand gold. Zhang Zhao ordered three people in a row. These three were all people who have received the benefits of Sun Quan, and they all expressed their willingness to take out money. Zhang Zhao didn't need to name the rest. They endured the pain and taught the money directly!

"My Bian family is willing to give out two thousand gold!"

"My Shen family is willing to pay 1,500 gold." They all took out money, the most three thousand gold, and the least one thousand gold, and the most money was more than 20,000 yuan.

"Okay, the remaining money will be paid by the lord! Your lord and the second son will definitely not forget it!" Zhang Zhao from the side said to everyone with a smile. Twenty-four thousand gold has been obtained. Except for 10,000 of these money that needs to be handed over to Yangzhou, the remaining 14,000 yuan is the lord Gongsun Ce! The plan of the Grand Governor Zhou Yu is good.

"How dare you, how dare you!" Although I felt distressed, everyone responded with a smile on their faces at Zhang Zhao.

Zhang Zhao left with his men directly. His mission had been completed. He believed that these gentry leaders would obediently send money to the lord, so he didn't need to do these.

...

In the middle of Shouchun, Yangzhou.

"Zijing, Zijing, tell me, am I really a waste?" A man with blue eyes and purple hair in Shouchun's prison was asking at another young man with a wry smile.

"Lord. How can you be a waste?" Another man was also a handsome man, but unfortunately, both of them were wearing the same white coarse cloth clothes, and the big word "prison" behind him was so dazzling and sarcastic.

"It's not a waste, it's not a waste, why am I here? If it's not a waste, how could I lose to 10,000 enemies with a 70,000 army!" This blue-eyed man is Sun Quan and Sun Zhongmou, the second young master of Jiangdong who once exuded a dazzling light in history. Unfortunately, he was destined to be a tragedy in this life.

His elder brother was not dead, so he lurked. In his previous life, his elder brother was assassinated to death. It was because Jiangdong beat Jingzhou so hard that he could not raise his head. He was about to be in sight. He occupied Jingzhou across the river and marched into the Central Plains to win the world. At this time, Sun Ce had the leisure to go hunting. Finally, he was assassinated and killed by assassin. In this life, Liu Mang appeared. Not only did Jiangdong not have any pioneering and enterprising, but he also lost Lujiang County. Although he got half of Jiangxia, there was an additional Zhuge Liang in Jingzhou who entered the official career. The current situation in Jiangxia is now in Jiangdong. The Jiangdong Army does not gain much advantage.

Sun Ce was so arrogant that he would not have the heart to hunt. If Sun Ce did not die, Sun Quan naturally would not have the opportunity to command Jiangdong. He thought of going out to make achievements, but he gave the troops and money, but in the end he was defeated. Sun Quan was naturally disappointed to the extreme.

"Lord, you!" Lu Su didn't know how to comfort him. Is Sun Quan a useless person? It's really not. But the brother above was too strong and Sun Quan wanted to show himself too much. So he lost because he lost too urgently. It was revealed since the seizure of military power. He wanted to kill Lu Meng and Ling Chao to seize military power. He was like this in Linhuai. He was too anxious. Qin Feng's military power could be obtained, but he couldn't be so anxious. This laid the root of defeat.

After that, the 70,000 troops had sufficient food and supplies. As long as they were steady and steady, with Yangzhou's foundation, they would definitely withdraw their troops. At this time, Sun Quan had the opportunity to occupy Linhuai. Later, whether to continue to attack Yangzhou or Xuzhou, which was plotting against Cao Cao, was chosen by Sun Quan. Unfortunately, there was no if, and he was defeated in one battle, and now even people have become prisoners.

Just when Lu Su was trying to comfort him, the door of the prison suddenly opened.

A team of soldiers walked in, and the armor on them was full of Yangzhou's troops. They were also the most elite military and urban management army in Yangzhou.

"Where is Lu Zijing in Jiangdong, Lusu?!" The visitor frowned as soon as he entered the cell. The smell in the cell was really bad.

"Report to the Lord, you are in front!" The prison head hurried forward and said to the visitor.

When Lu Su and Sun Quan heard this conversation, they were both shocked. They were here to find them. Just when they didn't know what to do with them, the captain of the Urban Management Army came down to their cells under the prison head.

"Open the cell!" The captain of the city management army said to the prison head next to him.

The prisoner nodded and opened the cells. The captain walked in and looked at Lu Su with a smile and said, "Mr. Lu Su, Lu Zijing, don't be fine!" The captain of the city management army was not someone else, but the official of the Chu camp of the Danyang soldiers who surrendered from the Jiangdong Army to Yangzhou, Ergouzi.

"Chu Ergou?!" Lu Su asked in confusion when he saw the visitor.

"Bold, dare to treat our general like this?!" The city management soldier next to him immediately angrily and scolded. "This is our General Chu Ju!"

"Chu Quotes?" Lu Su was stunned for a moment, but then he laughed. Isn't half of the dog just a sentence? Ergouzi back then has become Chu Quotes in a gentle manner.

"Haha, Mr. Zijing, thanks to his lord's love, I gave him a name, so I asked Mr. Zijing to call him a Chu Ju!" Ergouzi was still very respectful to Lu Su, because Lu Su was a respected figure in the army at the time, because Lu Su was selfless.

"Dogs are dogs! Return to Chu Ju?!" Sun Quan, who was next to him, snorting coldly and saying disdainfully.

"You!" The city management soldiers next to him were furious and were about to step forward and beat Sun Quan, but they were stopped by Ergouzi.

"What's the point of General Chu Ju here?" Lu Su gave Ergouzi a lot of face. After all, people always walk towards high places. The Ergouzi was now a thousand generals.

"Of course I'm sending Mr. Zijing on the way!" Chu Ju said with a hug at Lu Su and clasped his fists.

"On the road?" Sun Quan was stunned. How could it be possible? On the battlefield, there were usually those who died of thousands and hundreds of generals. Few generals died in battle, because these generals were either captured or fled. Especially, the commander and military advisor like them were captured and not scared. At worst, they could just exchange it back. This was how Lu Su was redeemed last time. They were still waiting for someone to redeem them.

"Can General Chu make a point clear?" Lu Su, the person involved, asked Ergouzi calmly.

"Mr. Zijing, I'm sorry, Chu can't help you, you and I are all your own masters. The last time Mr. Zijing was able to return to Jiangdong was because someone in Jiangdong redeemed him, but today Jiangdong has given up on him!" Ergouzi said to Lu Su.

"Is that so?!" A desolation flashed in Lu Su's eyes. The last time the ransom was that the Lu family paid a full fortune. The Lu family was not a wealthy gentry, so this time they were arrested. The ransom would definitely increase. The Lu family could not afford so much.

"Please go with me, sir. Chu will definitely let sir leave without pain! Chu can only help sir like this!" Ergouzi said with fist at Lu Su.

"Thank you, General!" Lu Su hugged and clasped his fists without saying anything more, Chu Ju waved his hand, and the two soldiers of the city management army were about to come forward to take Lu Su away.

"Zijing, Zijing, don't leave me!" Sun Quan was also a little panicked. There was Lu Su accompanying him, but now that Lu Su is going to be killed, he will be left alone.

"Get out!" The two city management soldiers next to them didn't care whether you were the second young master of Jiangdong or not, and they kicked them up. Sun Quan wanted to come up, but he was frightened by the city management soldiers' pulling out sword.

"Lord, take care of yourself!" Lu Su looked back at Sun Quan, bowed to Sun Quan and was then taken out by Chu Ju. Sun Quan only heard a sound from outside the prison cell.

"Jiangdong, Lu Su, Lu Zijing, the following offenders will commit crimes in the world. He will be executed according to the law and execute the punishment!"

Sun Quan sat on the ground with a slut, which was so scared. Sun Quan was not an unsavvy person. He had also been an executioner. However, if the people around him were executed, it would be different.

"Let me out, let me out! I don't want to die, I don't want to die! Let me out!" Sun Quan and Meng De grabbed the door of the prison cell, slapped violently, and was making noise.

"What's the matter?" The prison head ran over and shouted at Sun Quan in the cell. As he said that the whip in his hand fell directly on Sun Quan's forehead, and directly made a blood mark on Sun Quan's forehead. There was no second young master in Jiangdong here, only prisoners from Yangzhou.

"Ahhh! Let me go out, my elder brother, my elder brother will come to save me. My elder brother is the lord of Jiangdong. He will redeem me. Let me go out, I don't want to die, I don't want to die!" The prison head's whip has not yet been able to make Sun Quan awake.

On the face, there was another whip and another blood mark. The mark on the face became evenly symmetrical.

"Haha, give it back to your elder brother! Your elder brother has long ignored you! It's hard for him to protect himself. Do you know how much money you want! A whole ten thousand gold can your elder brother take it out!" The prison head sarcastically.

"Ten thousand gold?" Sun Quan was also stunned. This ten thousand gold was really a lot. But for his life, ten thousand gold was nothing. "Yes, yes, my elder brother will definitely do it!"

"Boom!" Shouchun's cell was opened again. Ergouzi, who was a butcher-like character in Sun Quan's eyes, appeared again, and he walked to Sun Quan again.

"The Second Young Master Jiangdong, right? My Ergouzi was very envious of your second young master back then! I even wanted to serve under your second young master!" Sun Quan's people's hearts in Jiangdong were really good. "But now it seems that's all! Mr. Zijing is on the way, and it's your second young master Sun Quan!" Ergouzi's body was full of blood, which made Sun Quan frightened.

"Impossible, impossible! How could it be my turn! My elder brother will redeem me and go back!" Compared to the energetic Sun Quan at the time, Sun Quan is really afraid in the face of death.

"Ten thousand gold? Your elder brother is reluctant to let it go! Jiangdong is now trapped in the battle situation in Jiangxia, and has consumed almost all the resources of Jiangdong. In the face of Daye, what is your younger brother worth?' Ergouzi said disdainfully.

"No, no!" Sun Quan still couldn't believe it and wanted to hide behind, but Ergouzi was also a general who said so. Sun Quan had shackles on his hands and feet, and he pulled them out, just like dragging a dead dog. He dragged them out directly.

"Let's go, let's go, second young master, I'll send you on the road. Look at Mr. Lu Su, Mr. Lu Zijing, the matter of just one knife is simple and clear. If you interfere with me, the second young master will not be able to kill the second young master but will be stuck on the second young master's head. Then second young master, don't blame me, Mr. Chu!" Ergouzi's words seemed to be no less than Sun Quan, so the words came from hell.

What does it mean to kill a knife without killing it? What does it mean to be more comfortable with a knife?

"My elder brother came back to save me, my elder brother came back to save me! I don't want to die, I don't want to die!" From the beginning, Sun Quan thought of his elder brother coming to save him, and then Sun Quan was scared to death. He was really afraid of death. Sun Quan and Sun Zhongmou were really the one who cherished his life the most among the Three Kingdoms. Cao Cao and Liu Bei lived as long as he did, and even Cao Cao's son Cao Pi could not withstand Sun Quan.

Sun Quan lived to be 71 years old alone, and survived Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Cao Pi to death! From the middle and late stages of the Three Kingdoms!

In his later years, he was even more afraid that his son would usurp the throne and was capricious about the issue of heirs. Lu Xun and other important officials were implicated, which made the political situation even more chaotic. Since Sun Deng died young, under the influence of Sun Luban and others, Sun Quan first deposed Sun He, then sentenced Sun Ba to death, and finally appointed his youngest descendant Sun Liang. This shows how afraid of death was.

Sun Quan was thinking about making great achievements and achieving his own hegemony. He was not dying here or dying in Shouchun. Just like this kind of unknown death, Sun Quan was afraid. He wanted to struggle, but everything was futile.

"Sun Ce, Sun Ce, brother, save me, save me!" Sun Quan shouted in a very miserable manner, but no one answered. He was dragged out by Chu Ju like a dead dog on the ground.

"Sun Ce, Sun Ce, if you don't save me, you won't die well or die well!" Sun Quan, his elder brother Sun Ce, also hated him. He hated Sun Ce for not coming to save him, hated Sun Ce for not being able to bear money, hated Sun Ce for not giving him the throne of Jiangdong. If he gave him the throne of Jiangdong, would Sun Quan need to go to war? Will Sun Quan be defeated if he doesn't go to the hospital? Will he die if he doesn't lose? He was dragged directly to the execution ground by Chu Ju, and a fresh head lying there, which made Sun Quan even more frightened. That would be Lu Su Lu Zijing.

"Second Young Master, go on the road!" Chu Ju smiled coldly and raised the butcher knife in his hand high.
Chapter completed!
