Chapter 187: The ninth plan of watching the fire from the other side

Time came in early August. The sun, which had been exposed for several months, began to grow old. Shangdang, which had been hot for a summer, gradually became cooler. The autumn cicadas on the trees in the backyard of the city lord's mansion seemed to know that the end of the world was coming. While there was still a few strength, they were still yelling weakly.

Recently, Zhao Xing has finally been idle these days. He no longer patrolled everywhere. He stayed peacefully in the backyard with Myolie Wu and Diao Chan who were about to give birth. Speaking of Zhao Xing's two lives, this is the first time he has been a father. The nervousness, anxiety and expectation are a reflection of his mentality.

With the whole care of the miracle doctor Hua Tuo, Myolie Wu and Diao Chan naturally did not suffer any losses during pregnancy. Both women were well-behaved and healthy. The eldest woman Xu Wanting also began to feel happy recently. She smelled the smell of oil smoke and vomited even when she saw some food. Now Zhao Xing was completely unemployed, just like the fifth brother Zhang Liao joked that "there is no bird during the day, and the bird at night."

Xu Wanlin has hinted more than once that she could help someone solve difficult personal problems on behalf of her sister, but Zhao Xing always pretended not to know, and was three steps away from the girls, only making her sister-in-law angry. Zhang Xin was also very open-minded, hinting that as long as Zhao Xing was willing, he would get in the bus first and then buy a ticket. Anyway, he would have to have a bridal chamber in a few days. Isn’t it possible for Zhao Xing to come here early and late?

"Brother-in-law, do you think the children in Sister Hu and Sister Diao Chan's belly are male or female?" While sitting in the backyard for a cool breeze, my sister-in-law Xu Wanlin asked Zhao Xing curiously.

"I'm not Jiang Ziya who can calculate, how could they know whether they are pregnant or not?" Zhao Xing, who was lying on an easy chair, rolled his eyes and said angrily.

"I think Sister Hu's belly is a girl, and Sister Diao Chan's belly is a boy..." Xu Wanlin said mysteriously.

"Haha, sister, where did you know?" Diao Chan, who was sitting next to Zhao Xing, was stuffing grapes into Zhao Xing's mouth with a smile.

"Hehe, the secret of heaven cannot be revealed. When the baby is born, you will know if I am right!" Xu Wanlin looked proud and said that while snatching a grape from Zhao Xing's hand, he swallowed it in his stomach.

"I don't know anything, but I like to pretend to be a god. If I don't say it right then, everyone will make fun of her!" Zhao Xing looked disbelief. Even later generations of B-Super may have made mistakes. Xu Wanlin is not a god, so how could she predict the future!

"Hmph, believe it or not, dare to make a bet with me!" Xu Wanlin was so arrogant that she pinched her waist with her hands, looking unwilling to give up.

"Hehe, bet, when will I lose? I wonder what the lottery is?" Zhao Xing looked indifferent.

"Well, just bet the loser does one thing for the winner!" Xu Wanlin blinked and came up with this bet.

"That won't work. If you ask me to pick the moon in the sky, I can't do it!" Zhao Xing quickly shook his head and denied it.

"Then let all sisters be a witness. We only ask the losers to do what they can and not go against their conscience and morality!" Xu Wanlin added.

"Okay, then as you said, hehe, little sister, just wait to cry..." Zhao Xing's expression of Xu Wanlin was calm, which immediately attracted the booing of the girls.

Zhao Xing was chatting and laughing with the girls, but saw Li Jinsi flashing at the door of the backyard, but did not alarm everyone. He knew that Li Jinsi had a private report, so he comforted the girls and stood up to go to the study.

"Brother Xing, this is the information from several states in the east and several states in the south. The Yellow Turban rebels in various places have gradually disappeared. The Han Dynasty will seem to be difficult to destroy for a while..." Li Jinsi said a rebellious sentence with a righteous face, and his tone seemed to be wishing that the Han Dynasty would close its doors as soon as possible.

Zhao Xing took the information handed over by Li Jinsi and carefully browsed it. After a while, he looked up and said, "Gather everyone to discuss matters tomorrow."

In the conference hall, Jia Xu, Xu Huang, Chen Gong, Li Fu, Wang Kai, Xu Si, Qin Yilu and others sat upright, listening to Li Jinsi reporting on the situation in various parts of the world. After receiving a letter from Zhao Xing on guarding against the northern Xianbei, Zhang Liao took Tian Feng and the five thousand soldiers who had finished training to Lishi, Zhao Yun took 4,000 Xiongnu cavalry to Yanmen County, and Guan Yu also returned to Jinyang, vigorously rectifying the public security in various parts of Taiyuan County.

"This is generally the case in various places. Please talk about your own ideas." Zhao Xing spoke after Li Jinsi's report.

"It seems that the most serious disaster in the Yellow Turbans is the one in the Julu Zhangjiao, the one in Nanyang Zhang Mancheng, and the one in the Black Mountain Army led by Zhang Yan. The other Yellow Turbans have either been destroyed or not far from being destroyed..." Chen Gong said.

"There is a natural danger in Bingzhou, and Jiguan is blocked, so you should not suffer from the Yellow Turban disaster again." Wang Kai said.

"If there is a general in Bingzhou, it is natural that the Yellow Turban disaster will revive. The key is how to seek more benefits in this chaotic world!" Jia Xu saw that no one mentioned the idea of ​​Zhao Xing gathering for everyone to have a meeting, so he spoke inspiring everyone.

"Mr. Wenhe's words are deeply loved by me. As the saying goes, "Falling in the waters", the world is chaotic, and it is not the time for Bingzhou to make profits!" Zhao Xing opened the skylight and said with no secret that he wanted to take the opportunity to gain more benefits.

Inspired by Xu Si, Xu said, "Now Bingzhou needs money and soldiers. If there is really a shortage, there is still a gap between Xihe and Taiyuan and 300,000 people..."

"If Bingzhou sends troops to another state, it will be unfair and unfavorable. However, this people should not be able to return as they did last time." Chen Gong frowned and said.

"What Mr. Gongtai said is reasonable. I think the most urgent task of Bingzhou is to calmly develop people's livelihood. We should not be greedy for the big picture and seek completeness. We will rashly attract the refugees!" Xu Huang said.

"The situation in various states is still unclear, so Bingzhou should not move too much. It is better to watch the fire from the other side of the river and wait for the change to begin!" Jia Xu said.

"I already know your opinions. I agree with Mr. Wenhe's words and do not make any moves for the time being, but you need to pay attention to things outside the state at all times. Once you find an opportunity, you can quickly send people out of Huguan and Jiguan, and you must never miss the opportunity!" Zhao Xing concluded.

"If the court recruited the Bingzhou army and assisted other states in suppressing the rebellion, how should we deal with it?" Li Fu asked a very likely question.

"If the court orders Bingzhou to send troops, I will take charge of the command personally and not bring back hundreds of thousands of people. It would be a joke among the people of the world that Zhao Guochang has no means!" Zhao Xing said with a confident smile.

"Can we take advantage of this chaos in the world and send people to various places to buy rare antiques at low prices, and then sell them at high prices after peace in the world. This will definitely make more money and grain!" Qin Yilu suggested. Since he was appointed as the General Mansion of Zhenbei, Qin Yilu has always stared at Zhao Xing's money bag, trying to increase revenue and reduce expenditure for the General Mansion.

"This plan is feasible. There is a saying: 'Buy antiques in troubled times, and hide gold in prosperous times.' Now Shangdang's yellow and white goods are piled up in the treasury. It is better to buy and sell them after peace in the future!" Zhao Xing applauded and said yes.

"This matter is left to Qin Jingshi and the shopkeeper Liu Jili. Li Jinsi dispatched people from the shadow to help!" Zhao Xing finally finalized Qin Yilu's plan to resell antiques.
