I am an anchor in the Three Kingdoms

At this moment…

"Master...Master...The disciples of each family are asking to see..." A gatekeeper was panting, and trot all the way to the main hall, "They all...all came back from Nanshan..."

Hmm... Nanshan?

In this sensitive period, the doorman came to ask for an interview, and he still came from Nanshan. The connection of these key clues has a profound meaning.

"Quick...let them in..."

As soon as Zhang Zhao waved his hand, for a moment, he really doubted...whether Nanshan really dug out the iron.

But soon, he shook his head violently... Immediately denied his naive thoughts.

There is no iron in the south of the Yangtze River... It is not a false statement.

……

The time for half a stick of incense...

It exploded, the entire Zhang family's meeting hall exploded... because the news sent back by dozens of disciples was so consistent, yet so clear...

Nanshan——iron is produced, and it is iron...

The iron that can't be seen at a glance...

A stone stirs up a thousand waves...

Nanshan produces iron, Soochow produces iron, Jiangnan produces iron... This is one wave after another, and the waves are blooming...

"Old Zhang...Old Zhang...what are you doing..." Seeing Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong running away like flying, the other patriarchs hurriedly asked.

"Of course we went to Nanshan... We don't want to take this batch of iron first... After Cao Xiong sells it to a black market dealer, we can exchange the money to buy iron, won't we go bankrupt?"

While Zhang Zhao was talking, he ordered his clansmen to go to the cashier to get coins...to load the carriage...

Two full carriages were fully installed.

……

……

Chapter 1072 Why did you sell Nanshan!

Now that the eight major families have received the information immediately, maybe the coins of two carriages of a family can buy the amount of [-] arrows...

But if it takes another half a day, the news will reach the ears of the black market merchants

They join in and start bidding up...

Then... I'm afraid it's ten times the coins, and I can't buy it...

"Then there's no need to panic, right?"

"Don't panic...the middleman will make the difference..."

Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong were about to throw out their old bones, put money in the carriage...they came to ride the horses themselves...they rushed to Nanshan without stopping...the speed was very fast...the cheeks were extremely eager...

The patriarchs of the other clans were stunned for a moment...

They all pondered over what Zhang Zhao said, and after a while...the wise ones pondered over it first.

"I'll go...don't be in a daze!" Immediately afterwards, more and more patriarchs ordered...

"Hurry up... prepare the horse... prepare the carriage, put the money... put the coins for the two carriages... go to Nanshan... hurry, hurry..."

All of a sudden, there were crowds of people... The four major families in Wu Jun and the four major families in Kuaiji responded one after another. Carts of coins were being loaded into the carriages at the fastest speed. Batches of strong horses came from Zhangfu Depart for Nanshan...

Today's Nanshan is a golden mountain... a shining golden mountain...

It is a golden mountain where gold leaves can fall from every leaf...

Perhaps, it can't help the big families make money, but...now, in the iron shortage, he can save an astronomical amount.

Who has a grudge against money?

"Old Lu...Why don't you go to Nanshan...If it's too late, you won't be able to buy iron?" Zhu Ran, the head of the Zhu family, has the best relationship with Lu Ji. At this time, he was the last one to remind Lu Ji score.

Lu Ji stood there with a dull face...

Gradually, he knelt on the ground, his eyes glazed over, this Nanshan...is the land of his Lu family.

3000 million yuan... This land was bought by Cao Xiong...

But now?

Good news from the wasteland... People sent it, and in an instant, the barren mountain became a golden mountain.

3000 million?30 million? [-] billion, I am afraid that Cao Xiong will not sell it.

For a moment, Lu Ji only felt that someone was rubbing his heart, and the pain was getting worse and worse...

It's so meow, it's like someone robbed his money...

And it's still blatantly robbing, recklessly robbing, daringly robbing...

"Old Lu...Old Lu...what's the matter with you?" Zhu Ran supported Lu Ji, who was about to fall to the ground, and suddenly thought of something... "I'll go... Isn't this mountain belongs to Lao Lu?"

But at this moment, hot tears fell down the corners of Lu Ji's eyes and melted on the ground. His cheeks were extremely stiff... The tears couldn't be contained, like pearls with broken threads, crackling flow to the ground...

"Old Lu...Old Lu..."

For a moment, Zhu Ran's voice turned into Lu Ji's auditory hallucination... He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but found that he was at a loss for words...

Vaguely, he could see the scene of Cao Xiong walking in front of his eyes with steps that his relatives would not recognize...

There is no wind, it is very quiet...the frost is like a knife...the knife makes people old...

For a moment, Lu Ji seemed to be the only one left in the Zhang family meeting hall of Nuo Da.

Like a statue, he was half-kneeling, trying to grab Zhu Ran's shoulders, his lips were trembling, and his trembling voice asked one after another: "Old Zhu... am I stupid?"

"I sold Nanshan? Am I stupid?"

"Why did you sell Nanshan?"

……

……

Chapter 1073

Wujun, Nanshan.

The Nanshan Mountain, which was originally barren, suddenly became extremely lively.

More than a dozen large wooden boards were laid out, on which were filled with chicken, duck and fish, and various dishes were cooked on the stove beside it.

Today, Cao Xiong is happy, he has dug up the iron, so he has to celebrate.

So he ordered his soldiers to go down the mountain to buy for a while.

Fortunately, there are quite a few small villages around Nanshan. It is convenient to buy some chickens, ducks, fish, etc...

There are no tables, so they are laid out with large wooden boards, and the miners sit one by one, almost dripping from their mouths.

The miners may not know how far-reaching influence iron has on Cao Xiong and Sun Deng.

But this does not delay at all, they enjoy the delicacy of this moment, do not delay their pockets full of pockets, do not delay when going down the mountain, each person can take an old hen in a bamboo basket.

The common people in troubled times actually ask for something very simple...

It is enough to survive and support a family.

"Let's eat, let's drink." Cao Xiong picked up a bowl of wine, "Everyone has worked hard, I respect you."

"Thank you concubine for enjoying the meal..." the miners shouted in unison, and there was a sense of sight filled with tears.

in their eyes.

Cao Xiong is different from those clans...he cares about the common people, and cares about the suffering of the people at the bottom.

Tong Yuan also ate with the common people, seeing the smiling faces of the common people, he was also very happy.

He has traveled north and south all his life, worked as a beggar, a hawker, and a farmer. Their goal is to change the difficult living conditions of the people. Now, the appearance of Cao Xiong has brought him hope and brought him the hope of ending this troubled world.

For this reason, even though Cao Xiong is not Tong Yuan's disciple, he has a special feeling for Cao Xiong.

After Cao Xiong ate for a while, he brought Zhao Yun, who was tasteless, into the house...

Yes, the two of them went in alone.

Dianman and Xuanjia's soldiers were supposed to follow, but Cao Xiong left them behind one by one.

Since you want to subdue Zhao Yun, mutual trust is essential.

Cao Xiong and Zhao Yun entered the house alone, this is Cao Xiong showing his attitude, next, it is Zhao Yun's choice whether to keep his promise or not.

"Zilong, don't make things difficult."

Cao Xiongan sat on a bamboo chair, "If you really don't want to, I won't force you, I will let you go!"

"Wei Shizi!" Zhao Yun frowned, the more Cao Xiong said this, the more difficult it was for Zhao Yun to get over this hurdle in his heart.

Promise, in this troubled world, seems to be an illusory thing.

But these few in Liu Bei's camp, especially the five tiger generals, are all righteous.

"Huh..." Taking a breath, Zhao Yun shook his head. "I, Zhao Zilong, promise a thousand gold!"

When he said this, he paused for a moment, and there was a gleam in his eyes.

"I will guard Wei Shizi for three years...to protect you, but I also hope that Wei Shizi can agree to some conditions."

"Say it!" Cao Xiong stretched out his hand. "As long as it is proposed by you, I will agree to everything."

"First, I, Zhao Yun, surrendered to Han and not Cao!"

This sentence blurted out, Cao Xiong was taken aback at first, then smiled lightly, and thought to himself: "Why do Shu Han like to play this trick? Han, it's almost cold... It's the same for everyone you descend to."

With this in mind, Cao Xiong nodded. "I promise you, continue..."

"Second, I, Zhao Yun, only protect you, and I will never fight for you on the battlefield..."

……

Chapter 1074 Angry Sun Shangxiang!

Uh... don't help fight on the battlefield?

Cao Xiong was taken aback for a moment, this one is a bit cheating, anyway, when Guan Yu was trapped in Cao Ying, he even killed Yan Liang and Wen Chou!It would be good if you dare to be with him, just be a bodyguard and not fight...

"Success!" Cao Xiong thought for a while and nodded. "no problem!"

Conquering Zhao Yun is definitely not something that can be done with a single promise, three years is a long time, Cao Xiong is sure, take his time.

"Third." Zhao Yun's eyes froze. "Three years later, I will leave. Wei Shizi will not be able to stop me. I, Zhao Yun, said what I said before. One day, I will avenge the former lord's revenge!"

"It means, first protect me for three years, and after three years, come and kill me!"

"Wei Shizi can understand that."

Originally thought that saying this would make Cao Xiong angry.

Unexpectedly, Cao Xiong patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder.

"It's easy to say, easy to say..." He looked up at Zhao Yun. "From now on, you will be the only guard by my side!"

uh...the only...

It was Zhao Yun, who was a little confused... Cao Xiong dared to keep Zhao Yun by his side as the only guard when he put forward these three unreasonable conditions, and he had a sworn feud with the former lord Liu Bei.
