Chapter 488 Want to create a great cause and plan a great plan
When everyone heard this, they all understood it this time. It turned out that this was given by the old lord's old friend. Fortunately, it was not that my lord had gone for a fork in the road, otherwise how could I be worthy of my old lord? Everyone was thinking in their hearts. As for the lord's ability to deceive themselves, the few people really didn't think so. They all knew that their lord would never be like this. As the saying goes, "One is one, two is two", there is no other messy things like three, four, five, and six.
Bucheng Pu and Zhu Zhi frowned slightly at this time, thinking that there is such a good thing in the world? Is it possible? Those who can give out five hundred gold at once are not rich businessmen, or powerful people with great power or powerful families. They must be powerful families or powerful families, or they must be talented people who are willing to use all their efforts to cultivate them in the clan. Or if they are officials, then at least they must be officials of the county magistrate or above.
But let’s not talk about whether my old lord recognizes such a person or not, even if he recognizes it, why should he help you like this? This makes people think too much. So Cheng Pu and Zhu Zhi were indeed worried at this time, and this is normal. The ancients said, “If you want to take it, you must give it first.” So if the other party has this idea, it is unknown now.
According to the current conversion ratio, in the Han Dynasty, one gold was only exchanged for 10,000 yuan, but later because the world had too much money and had been in chaos for years, the purchasing power of Wuzhu coins had already declined a lot. In modern terms, it would be depreciated. So if you exchange one gold for 20,000 yuan (this money specifically refers to Wuzhu coins), there is no problem at all. Even in Huainan, it is still a bit richer place, but it can still be exchanged for nearly 20,000 yuan.
So the five hundred gold is only 10 million yuan. Who can take out so much money at once? The key is that he even gave it to his lord. So Cheng Pu and Zhu Zhi thought a lot. Could there be such a good thing in the world? Then he let his lord encounter it? At this time, Huang Gai also felt that this was a little wrong. After all, it was the first time he had seen such a thing in his life.
He also asked in confusion at this moment: "Lord, I don't know who his old friend is, his name and where does he live?"
This is actually what everyone wants to ask, but Huang Gai asked it first. After hearing this, Sun Ce smiled at it, "I asked it too. But he didn't say that I still want to ask a few uncles now, do you know the other person?"
When everyone heard this, they were suspicious, very suspicious. After doing such a big good thing, they didn't even want to leave their names. Isn't it suspicious? The main reason is that he said he was the old friend of the old lord. So it was too suspicious if he didn't nominate. Yes, what exactly did the other party do for this? This makes people doubt this. But his lord really has nothing, and this is not wrong.
At this time, Cheng Pu asked: "Lord, didn't the other party tell you to do something or agree to his request?"
Sun Ce slowly shook his head and thought to himself that he said he wanted to repay his kindness, but he even said that he could not make any other requests.
"No!" Sun Ce said firmly.
Then he told everyone that Ma Chao took out the allusion of Han Xin and Piao's mother. When everyone heard this, they said, "Is there really such a good thing?"
"By the way, there is also a jade seal. The gentleman said that it can be exchanged for people from Yuan Highway!"
Naturally, Sun Ce did not hide it from everyone. At this time, he quickly picked up the wooden box, opened it, and took out the jade seal.
Cheng Pu and Zhu Zhi looked at each other again, and both saw surprise and a hint of suspicion in each other's eyes.
Cheng Pu said: "Can your lord let your subordinates see this jade seal?"
Sun Ce smiled and then handed the jade seal to Cheng Pu. After Cheng Pu took it, he took a closer look and took a breath of air conditioning and said, "It's indeed it!"
After saying that, Cheng Pu carefully handed the jade seal to Zhu Zhi next to him. After Zhu Zhi saw it, he frowned even deeper.
The other people also looked at it a few times, but Cheng Pu and Zhu Zhi recognized this thing, but no one else knew about it.
Sun Ce asked, "Does Uncle Daomou recognize this thing?"
Cheng Pu smiled bitterly at this time, "Yes, this thing is the jade seal of the country!"
Just one sentence surprised Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zu Mao and Sun Ce. Yes, I have to do so. This is the jade seal of the kingdom? Isn’t that the emperor used it? Why did you come here?
Sun Ce looked at the imperial seal in his hand and said to Cheng Pu: "Uncle, do you think this is serious?"
Cheng Pu nodded slightly, then looked at Zhu Zhi, and said that the most knowledgeable people here would be the ones who were the ones here. But according to Cheng Pu's meaning, please tell your lord about the preaching of the imperial seal.
Zhu Zhi naturally refused to let him go, so he started talking about it after Bian He got the stone from Jingshan, and continued until the eighteen princes attacked Luoyang. In the end, he heard that the jade seal of the country was lost, and until now.
When Sun Ce heard this, he hurriedly said, "This, but why is this imperial seal here with me?"
When everyone heard this, they said, "We also want to ask you, lord, why did you come to you when you pass on the imperial seal?
Zhu Zhize said: "I'd like to ask my lord to tell us what happened today from beginning to end, and we must not miss it!"
Sun Ce nodded. He also knew that this was not a small matter, so he talked about the conversation between the two of them from the beginning until Ma Chao left.
Later, Cheng Pu and Zhu Zhi asked Sun Ce about his age, appearance, height, etc., and Sun Ce also answered them one by one.
At this time, Cheng Pu said, "When the imperial seal was lost, my subordinates guessed that the most likely one was to be obtained by a certain prince, but it is difficult to make a conclusion who it was!"
Everyone nodded, and Cheng Pu continued, "From the description of the lord, the most likely person is the Liangzhou Muma Chaoma Mengqi! But why did he help the lord so much, his subordinates still couldn't understand it!"
At this time, Zhu Zhi said, "Lord, I think, if Ma Mengqi really came here, his purpose of this move would definitely be related to Yuan Shu Yuan Highway!"
When Sun Ce heard this, he asked, "Does he really want me to send the imperial seal to Yuan Highway?"
Cheng Pu did not stop nodding at this time, "Yes, I think that's exactly what it means! Although he doesn't know what Ma Mengqi's specific intention is, his idea should also give the imperial seal to Yuan Highway. After all, Yuan Highway has always been unjust, especially in the past two years, if anyone in the world wants to get the imperial seal the most, his subordinates think it's really the right person!"
After hearing what Cheng Pu said, everyone laughed. Isn’t Yuan Shu like this? He was a man of great ambition and talent, but he always thought that he would dominate the world one day, and almost everyone under his command knew about this. Although several people didn’t know what would happen to Yuan Gonglu with the imperial seal, they also knew that he had always dreamed of an emperor and didn’t dare to implement it.
Sun Ce looked at the imperial seal in his hand. He had nothing to bear to let go. As for the rumors in the world, "those who get the imperial seal will win the world", he had never believed it. In his opinion, using this stone to repay Yuan Shu's thousands of troops is really worth it.
So he said, "Then I should look for an opportunity to exchange the imperial seal for the Yuan Highway with the imperial seal, and then don't do anything to do anything big!"
Everyone nodded, especially Cheng Pu and Zhu Zhi. For both of them, the ones who were holding were not the imperial seal, but it was clearly a "hot potato". They would give Yuan Highway early and get rid of this thing earlier. They could even get rid of Yuan Shu as soon as possible and start their own business. Why not do this?
Both of them knew in their hearts that things like the imperial seal were definitely not something that their lords could control now. For their lords, holding the imperial seal in their hands was definitely not a good thing, but a disaster. Especially with Yuan Shu, Yuan Highway next to them, who dreamed of the emperor, so their lords could not hide the imperial seal privately. Otherwise, it would be more dangerous if Yuan Shu discovered it.
After all, they don’t trust Yuan Shu. Who knows what Yuan Gonglu can do? The so-called “people’s hearts are separated from their stomachs, and they don’t know what they do” is, really, no one knows what he will do then.
Everyone looked at each other, and then said in unison: "We are willing to follow our lord and serve our own efforts!"
Sun Ce smiled and said, "You uncles don't have to do this. Ce will rely on you in the future. What is wrong with Ce's work in the future? Please correct me if you are not stingy!"
Everyone was quite relieved, at least their lord's attitude was pretty good. Maybe the old lord could do what he hadn't done, but his lord could do it. The old lord had ambitions unfulfilled, but the lord should be said to be full of energy now.
Everyone was very confident in their lord, and so was Sun Ce. He no longer thought about Ma Chao's affairs. Anyway, no matter who it was or what the purpose was, at least he gave himself gold and the imperial seal. This was correct. He should be able to get what he wanted from Yuan Shu, so even if the other party wanted to use him, he was willing to use it once. At least he did not get the benefits, and maybe he got more benefits.
"Ce is still young now, so we will rely more on all the uncles in the future!"
As he said that, Sun Ce quickly stood up and gave a deep tribute to the people. Although Sun Ce is still young now, as the lord, he still understands that there are not so many people who follow his father, but in the end, only five people are left to follow him. It can be said that these five are indeed the ones who are finally their father, and are also reliable people and trustworthy people. Now he has nothing, only five hundred gold and this jade seal of the kingdom. Therefore, before he gets new talents to surrender, he must rely on these people from his uncles. With them, he will succeed sooner if he wants to do things.
Everyone hurriedly saluted and said in unison: "I will live up to the lord's expectations!"
Seeing everyone like this, Sun Ce was happy. With such a loyal minister and a good general, why worry about not being able to make a career! (To be continued, please search Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
