Chapter 0124 The plan to drive away tigers and swallow wolves

When Han Zhan, Guo Jia and others led the army to triumph, Zhao Yun personally brought the people outside the city to greet them.

Among the people welcoming, Han Zhan unexpectedly saw two familiar faces: one was his own housekeeper patch in Sheguo County; the other was Fuhu Cha in Sheguo County.

Seeing these two people, Han Zhan showed a surprised expression on his face. He quickly turned over and dismounted, bowed to Hu Cha, and greeted politely: "Mr. Hu, it's been a long time since he was gone!"

"Congratulations to the Marquis, congratulations to the Marquis!" Hu Cha saw Han Zhan dismount and greet him, and hurriedly knelt on the ground to salute: "The villain welcomes the Marquis to triumph!"

"Mr. Hu," Han Zhan knew that Hu Cha was a big businessman. If he hadn't found something important, he would never have appeared here suddenly. He quickly helped the other party up and asked, "I don't know when you arrived in Jizhou, what's the price?"

Hu Cha looked around and lowered his voice and said, "Marty, this is not where to speak. Let's wait until I return to the provincial and ministerial palace before talking."

Seeing Hu Cha's expression, Han Zhan knew that there must be something important, and it is indeed not suitable for discussion in public. He walked to the patch again and asked with a stern face: "You are not in Sheguo County, why are you here to do it?"

"Reply to the young master," Padded quickly lowered his head and replied, "It was Sister Lihua who said that there was no one to serve, so he urged the villain to come and serve you. Mr. Hu happened to be coming to Jizhou to do business, so the villain came here with him."

Back at the provincial governor's mansion, Han Zhan ordered Yuan Tan to be imprisoned and stayed with Chunyu Qiong. He also ordered Zhao Yun to go to the military camp to be responsible for reorganizing the captured Yuan army officers and soldiers. After finishing all this, he summoned Hu Cha to the main hall and asked directly: "Mr. Hu, can you tell me now, is your purpose in this trip?"

"Return to the words of the Marquis," Hu Cha said respectfully: "The villain heard that the Marquis has developed a new wine that tastes more pure and fragrant than the wine we usually drink."

Hearing this, Han Zhan nodded and said, "Mr. Hu, your news is quite informative. That's right, this marquis has indeed developed a new wine, but due to the limited production, the new wine produced can only be used to wipe the wounds of the injured soldiers."

"Wipe the wound with wine?" Hu Cha couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise when he heard Han Zhan say this: "Mr. Marquis, this is too wasteful, right?"

Seeing Hu Cha’s topic, Han Zhan couldn’t help but ask curiously: “Mr. Hu, do you have any plans?”

As soon as Han Zhan finished speaking, Hu Cha gave him a thumbs up and said flatteringly: "It's still the Marquis' wise, and I guessed the villain's thoughts at once. That's right, the villain came to see the Marquis today for this new wine."

Han Zhan did not interrupt him, but just made a call to him and signaled him to continue. Hu Cha continued: "The villain has two wineries in Jizhou City, and the sales are pretty good every year, and it is also an important entry in the villain's business. Now the villain wants to work with the Marquis to open this new wine together. What is the profit of the future? The villain has 40% and the Marquis has 60%."

As early as when he ordered Rob to steam wine, Han Zhan thought about finding a larger wine shop to produce this kind of high-concentration liquor. Because he was busy recently, he had not yet had time to worry about it. Now Hu Cha took the initiative to use the wine shop to cooperate with him. This is really a pillow if someone wants to be sleepy, so there is no reason to refuse. However, he thought that steaming wine does not have much technical content, and people in Hu Cha wine shop can learn it by looking at it. If he wants too many shares, this kind of cooperation may not last long.

After careful consideration, he stretched out three fingers and said to Hu Cha: "Mr. Hu, you are not an outsider either. If you want to work with me, we will divide it into three to seven."

"Sanqi part?" Hearing Han Zhan's share ratio, Hu Cha's muscles twitched violently for a few times, thinking that this little marquis is really bad. Giving him 60% of the part is already the limit. Unexpectedly, he wanted to add another 10%. He was determined not to cooperate. Now Jizhou is his territory. He offended him. Many workshops and shops in the city may have to close sooner or later. Therefore, he hesitated for a long time, and finally stomped his feet suddenly and gritted his teeth and said, "Sanqi is Sanqi, Xiaomao, we will decide that."

"Mr. Hu, wait." Han Zhan saw Hu Cha's behavior and knew that he had misunderstood. He quickly smiled and said to him: "What I said is 30% of me, you 70% of me."

Han Zhan's words shocked Hu Cha. He didn't expect Han Zhan to give up 30% of the members of the group to cooperate with him, so he stayed in the distance for a while and didn't know what to say. After a long time, he bowed to Han Zhan and said, "The little marquis is indeed kind and righteous. He is willing to give 70% of the members of the group. The villain is very grateful."

After Han Zhan wrote the method of steaming on paper, he handed it to Hu Cha and said to him: "Mr. Hu, except for fifty jars of new wines he brewed to the wounded camp every month, you can sell the remaining parts of the wine you brew at will."

Hu Cha took the prescription from Han Zhan's hand, carefully put it into the sleeve of the robe, and then bowed to Han Zhan again: "Thank you, Marquis, the villain has surrendered!"

After Hu Cha left, Han Zhan returned to the backyard and walked straight to his bedroom, the room he lived in when he traveled through time. As soon as he reached the door, he heard someone talking inside. He stopped and listened. In addition to the patch, there seemed to be two other young women's voices.

He coughed heavily, and the voice inside stopped abruptly. He pushed open the door and walked in. After he went in and saw the people in the room clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned. In addition to the patch, two young and beautiful women were also in the room.

Han Zhan stared at the two beauties intently and asked the patch standing beside him with his hands hanging down: "Patch, whose little lady are these two girls?"

"Go back to the young master," Patch replied respectfully, "These are the two singers that Mr. Hu gave to you."

"Singer?!" Han Zhan originally thought that the two women were relatives from which family, and they followed Hu Cha and Patch to Jizhou City and temporarily lived in the backyard for a while. Unexpectedly, it was the singer Hu Cha who gave him. After figuring out the identities of the two women, Han Zhan turned his head and looked at the patch and said unhappily: "Patch, who told you to take the singer from Mr. Hu's house to take them back to Mr. Hu's house? Why don't you send someone to send them back to Mr. Hu's house as soon as possible."

"Young Master." Seeing Han Zhan's unhappy look, Patch quickly explained: "Mr. Hu said that there are many inconveniences for the young master to be there. Therefore, we specially prepared these two singers to sing music for the young master during the day, to serve the young master's daily life, and to warm the young master's bed at night."

When Han Zhan learned that the two singers were sent by Hu Cha in the name of warming the bed, he couldn't help but send the person back. He waved his hand and said to the two: "Since it's Mr. Hu's kindness, then stay."

When they heard that Han Zhan was willing to keep him, the two women looked at each other and showed a joyful expression on their faces. Then they bowed and bowed at the same time: "Thank you, I, my little marquis!"

Since he left the two singers, Han Zhan asked politely: "What are your names?"

The woman on the left said first: "Go back to the little marquis, I'm a jadeite!"

The woman on the right continued, "I am A Nuan!"

"A Nuan?!" When Han Zhan heard this name, he couldn't help laughing, thinking that among the two singers who Hu Cha gave him to warm the bed, there was actually one named A Nuan. This name is really appropriate.

Suddenly there were two outstanding women with excellent looks and figures in the house. Han Zhan suddenly had the idea of ​​being a foolish monarch, which was to stay in this house and not go out for ten days and half a month, and enjoy a wonderful life.

However, as soon as his thought came out, he heard someone outside shouting: "Mr. Marquis, Marquis!"

Han Zhan, who had just sat on the couch and hugged the two singers in his arms, heard that it was Rob's voice, and quickly raised his chin at the patch, signaling him to open the goal and put Rob in.

As soon as the door opened, Rob stepped in from outside the door, but saw Han Zhan sitting on the couch, holding two beautiful women with both hands. He knew that he had disturbed his master's good things, and he couldn't help but look embarrassed. Just as he was hesitating whether to withdraw, he heard Han Zhan asking, "Robu, is there anything wrong?"

"Return to the lord." Since Guo Jia changed his words to be Han Zhan, many people in the army have also changed their words, and Rob is one of them: "Mr. Guo is waiting in the main hall and said that there are important matters that need to be reported immediately."

Han Zhan knew that Guo Jia would not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Since he was so anxious to see him, there must be something important. He could only let go of the two singers he hugged, stood up, and said to Rob: "Captain Luo will follow me to the main hall to meet Fengxiao."

Guo Jia, who was walking back and forth in the main hall, saw Han Zhan appear, immediately came forward and said, "You have taken the initiative, Mr. Xun has come to you." As he said that, he handed over a letter from his hand.

"Mr. Xun, which Mr. Xun?" Han Zhan took the letter from Guo Jia and asked casually: "Is it a letter from my uncle?"

Unexpectedly, Guo Jia shook his head and said, "It's not Xun Wenruo, but Xun Gongda."

"Cousin Gongda?" After learning that it was Xun You's letter, Han Zhan didn't care about reading the letter anymore, but asked curiously: "Aren't he in Gongsun Zan's army responsible for the contact matters? Is there anything important to him when he writes at this time?"

"Lord, I sent someone to send a letter to Xun Gongda two days ago, telling him in detail about the capture of Jizhou and the recovery of Zhang He." Guo Jia said with a smile: "In Gongda's letter today, he said that he had come up with a plan to break the deadlock between Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan."

Since Han Zhan learned that Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan had a ceasefire, he was quite anxious. If the two sides confronted each other like this, he would not know how long it would take to see the two of them fighting each other. If it were like in real history, Dong Zhuo came out to mediate for both sides, everything he had done now was in vain. He quickly asked, "What strategy?"

Guo Jia quickly replied: "Gongda is preparing to make a suggestion to Gongsun Zan, saying that Yuan Shao's troops at Jieqiao are already an isolated army. As long as he can provoke Gongsun Zan to attack Yuan Shao on his own initiative, Yuan Shao, who thought that the soldiers were small and weak, would definitely not be able to resist it. Then we can reap the benefits of the fisherman."

"Not bad," Han Zhan nodded with a smile and said in praise: "A good trick to 'drive the tiger and swallow the wolf' is indeed a good trick. I believe that once Gongsun Zan knew that Yuan Shao had few soldiers and had no reinforcements, he would decisively attack Yuan camp. When they were almost done fighting, we would send troops to clean up the mess."

After Han Zhan said this, Guo Jia unexpectedly found that he frowned and muttered to himself. He couldn't help but ask curiously: "Fengxiao, what are you talking about?"

Hearing Han Zhan's voice, Guo Jia's body shook suddenly, then raised his head and said to Han Zhan: "The lord just mentioned the plan of 'eating tigers and swallowing wolf', Jia thinks it is quite appropriate."

When Han Zhan heard Guo Jia say this, he secretly shouted, and thought to himself that I thought this was one of the thirty-six strategies. Unexpectedly, even Guo Jia had never heard of this strategy. Could it be that it was only from other dynasties? He laughed dryly and said, "I just said it casually."

In order to make the strategy formulated by Xun You fully realize its effect, Han Zhan ordered Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, immediately send a probe to closely monitor the movements in the direction of the border bridge. Once Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao start a war, we will immediately send troops to occupy Guangzong and cut off Yuan Shao's retreat."

"Please don't worry, lord." Guo Jia had considered the problem that Han Zhan had long been thinking about. He reported to Han Zhan: "Jia has sent three teams of explorers to the direction of Jieqiao to inquire about the situation of the two armies. If they have any abnormal movements, the explorers will repay them immediately." Speaking of this, Guo Jia paused for a moment and then asked, "Lord, you once said that we will not kill Yuan Shao for the time being. If we really occupy Guangzong, wouldn't we cut off Yuan Shao's retreat?"

"Don't worry about the treatment of Yuan Shao." Han Zhan had a long time to be clear about how to deal with Yuan Shao. Seeing that Guo Jia was so worried, he took the initiative to explain to him: "I will do my best to force Yuan Shao to the south. After I occupy Jizhou, I will recommend him to the court as the governor of Yanzhou, so that he can help us resist those potential enemies in the south of us."

"Potential enemy?" Hearing Han Zhan say this, Guo Jia immediately became interested: "Lord, I wonder who our potential enemy is?"
