Chapter 760 Two Rumors

Liu Xiongming seemed to have guessed that Liu Qi was going to ask him this question.

He was not in a hurry to answer, but slowly took out a piece of silk from his long sleeves and presented it to Liu Qi.

"This is all my family property in Lantian. I am willing to offer it all today for your inspection."

Seeing Liu Xiongming being so sensible, Liu Qi couldn't help but be a little surprised.

After all, he could be regarded as a strong man holding on to one side. After Jia Xu's lobbying, he not only came to him to express his submission, but also surrendered with his own property, which shows his sincerity.

Liu Qi reached out and took the roll of silk from Liu Xiongming's hand, and slowly opened it.

This scroll is not just one piece, but three volumes.

The first piece of silk was Lantian's taxes and calculations, including the amount of grain and fodder in the warehouse, and the number of households in Lantian under Liu Xiongming's jurisdiction.

The second piece of silk is a map of Lantian County, including streets, warehouses, arsenals, county offices, etc., all drawn in extremely detail.

The third piece of silk records Liu Xiongming's personal assets, including that he has a Taoist temple in the Qinling Mountains southeast of Lantian. There are three thousand of his disciples in the temple, who have accumulated 50,000 shi of grain and grass, and countless goods... These are all

It was his personal wealth that he had accumulated over the years, and now he was dedicating it all.

When Liu Qi looked at the last piece of silk, he couldn't help but smacked his lips, secretly thinking that in this era of lack of food and clothing, and war and chaos, he, a magic stick, could not only gain the trust of the people from all over the world, replace the county magistrate to protect another place, but also be able to protect the country.

He has hoarded so much wealth, yet people from all over the world still support him?

There are three thousand disciples alone, and each one of them is willing to guard the mountain for him, which he would never be able to do if it were him.

It is said that the child is silent and has strange power and chaos, but in fact, how many people can actually do it?

Liu Qi looked at Liu Xiongming meaningfully and said, "Mr. Liu gave me this silk, do you really want to dedicate all these wealth and grain to me?"

Liu Xiongming sighed: "Liu has taken charge of Lantian for the imperial court in these years, which is an act of transgression. The property in this Taoist temple is also the reward he received for praying for blessings, treating doctors, and doing fortune telling for the people of Guanzhong over the years. It is inherently illegal."

It shouldn’t be Liu’s, but no one who cares about the world can accept it. Being able to meet General Zhenxi today is really a great blessing in Liu’s life. I hope General Zhenxi can take these goods and grain and use them for the people.

People, if we can do this, then Liu will be considered dead and will die without regrets."

Liu Xiongming's words made Liu Qi very emotional. He really never thought that this number one ranked Guanzhong's best stickman would have such awareness and mind, and would be willing to give everything he had. It was really touching.

"It's really admirable that Mr. Liu has such an awareness. Don't worry, sir, after the matter is decided, Liu Qi will definitely report it to the emperor and ask the imperial court for credit for Mr. Liu!"

Liu Xiongming bowed respectfully to Liu Qi and said: "I don't mind your troubles, but Liu is just a quack alchemist and cannot be promoted to the stage. I only ask you to allow Liu to continue practicing medicine, divination, collecting medicine and preaching in Guanzhong."

For the benefit of the people, a foolish wish is enough."

At that moment, Liu Qi ordered a banquet to be held in the tent, officially took Liu Xiongming under his command, and asked Jia Xu, Zhang Yun and others to accompany him.

At the banquet, Liu Qi came up with a strategy in front of Liu Xiongming, saying: "Right now, both the Baibo Yellow Turban and the Guanzhong Yellow Turban are short of food and grass, but because Lu Bu's army and I are displayed on the east and west sides, we dare not send out large armies among the people.

Stealing food..."

Liu Xiongming shook his head and said: "They can't find any villages and counties where they can rob food. All the people in the nearby villages and pavilions have fled. Who will stay and let the Yellow Turban thieves rob them?"

"Didn't the Yellow Turban Thief target your Lantian County?"

Liu Xiongming said: "It is true that we sent troops to harass the county several times, but as Junhou said, the Yellow Turbans may be afraid of Junhou and Lu Bu's troops and dare not send large groups to attack the county."

Liu Qi shook his head and said: "Otherwise, in my opinion, the Yellow Turban thieves are not stupid people. Mr. Liu's reputation in Lantian and the fact that he has money and food in his hands, it is impossible for the Yellow Turban thieves not to know... at least

Zhang Baiqi has lived in Guanzhong for a long time, so he must know it well, but the Yellow Turbans also know that Mr. Liu's large amount of grain, grass and belongings may not be in Lantian County, so they are also waiting for an opportunity."

Liu Xiongming clapped his head in sudden realization and said: "This is exactly the reason why Liu didn't think of it."

Liu Qi said: "I want to use the grain, grass and goods that Mr. Liu has hoarded in the Qinling Mountains south of Lantian as bait to lure those yellow scarf thieves to send troops to seize the grain. I wonder if Mr. Liu is willing to give it up?"

Liu Xiongming was stunned when he heard this, and then said hesitantly: "Liu's wealth and food, and even my three thousand disciples, have just been given to the monarch. Liu has no problem with how the monarch wants to use them."

, wouldn’t it be a pity to just use these grains to lure the Yellow Turban thieves?”

Liu Qi smiled and said: "I just used the fifty thousand stones of food and grass as bait, and I didn't really say that I wanted to give these things to the Yellow Turban thieves."

Liu Xiongming suddenly understood and said: "This is the best! Nothing is better!"

"Okay, in that case, I need Mr. Liu to help me make some preparations. You can sneak back to Lantian first, and send people to transport food and fodder from Lantian to your Taoist temple in Qinling. Remember to be careful and don't let outsiders notice."

Liu Xiongming wondered: "Don't you want to lure the Yellow Turban thieves? If you don't let them notice, how can you succeed?"

Liu Qi laughed and said: "Just because you don't let them notice it doesn't mean that they can't notice it. Zhang Baiqi has been traversing the pass for many years, how can he be an idle person? Besides, I think he has been eyeing your Lantian for a long time. No matter how careful you are, he will

There will definitely be traces found.”

Hearing this, Liu Xiongming couldn't help but be surprised: "Don't worry, Lord, Mr. Liu will definitely handle this matter."

Liu Qi turned to look at Zhang Yun again and said: "Brother, we sent a large number of scouts to spread rumors near Lantian, saying that Liu Shenxian of Lantian has 200,000 dan of food in his hands..."

Liu Xiongming's figure swayed, and most of the wine cup he was holding in his hand spilled out.

He looked at Liu Qi awkwardly and whispered: "Jun Hou, where do I have 200,000 shi of food?"

Liu Qi smiled and said: "I know you didn't, isn't this a way to deceive the Yellow Turbans?"

Only then did Liu Xiongming act like he suddenly realized something, and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, that's it... Mr. Liu was really confused for a moment."

Liu Qi turned to look at Zhang Yun again and said: "In addition, I sent someone to talk more, saying that the Grand Master is in Chang'an, and has defeated Li Jue and Guo Si several times. The army is in full swing, and the Xiliang soldiers can be destroyed overnight... Anyway, try your best.

Exaggeration, the faster the news spreads, the better.”
