"My son, there is no need to be sad, fate will come." Xu's mother stroked Xu Shu's forehead with one hand, and pressed her other hand on her heart. Hua Tuo's prescription was stored in her clothes.

Xu's mother secretly invited a doctor to diagnose her daughter-in-law's pulse, but it turned out that it was not Xiang's fault. Xu Shu chose to escape in the face of a hidden illness, so she could only find Lantian for help.

On the way back, Xu's mother was in a good mood. Xu Shu once asked curiously: "My mother has been in a good mood recently. Did she encounter any happy events?"

Xu's mother smiled kindly: "I watched Miss Lu get married. Although Lu Bu's reputation is not very good, this daughter is really worth living. Now that she has two children, isn't it a happy event?"

"Uh...indeed."

Xu's mother said anything she could to avoid passing on the family line, which put a lot of pressure on the older young man Xu. Fortunately, Zhuge Liang, who was almost the same age, had no heirs now, so he didn't feel so uncomfortable if he had someone to share his suffering.

Lan Tian and Gao Shun put the two people on the boat and were about to leave. Gao Shun suddenly raised his eyes and looked to the west.

Gao Shun pointed to a ship not far away and said: "Sir, that seems to be Wushei's merchant ship. Should we wait for a while? There may be news about Hu Ke."

"There are people coming and going on the pier, and there may be Jiangdong or Shixie's eyes and ears. It would be unfair for the Us brothers to be exposed. Let's go back and wait for news." Lan Tian reminded.

Gao Shun was startled when he heard this, then frowned and clasped his fists: "I was too concerned, so I didn't think carefully..."

"Let's go back first." Lan Tian waved his sleeves gently and walked towards the carriage from which he came.

Seeing the surging water on the pier and ships of various sizes frequently entering and exiting the port, two men came out of the Ushei merchant ship and they carried the large wooden box onto the carriage that had been prepared.

Most of what Wushei shipped to Jianye was toys and utensils, and the property he sold was exchanged for rice and grain. The meat was shipped back to Jiaozhou. Lantian did not miss any opportunity to store food. In addition to the huge consumption of Guangzhou city itself, he had already

He was hoarding military supplies for Guan Yu's Northern Expedition.

After dark, Wushei knocked on the door of the Prefectural Shepherd's Mansion. The gatekeeper seemed to know that he was coming and took him directly to the back hall where Lan Tian was.

Lantian sat on a chair with his eyes closed and meditated, while Gao Shun was on the sand table next to him rehearsing the ongoing Ruxu Water Battle.

The moment he opened the door, Gao Shun looked at the door and greeted: "You're here..."

Lan Tian opened his eyes when he heard the noise, Wushei cupped his fists and saluted the two of them, "Sir, General Gao..."

"Hu Ke got married last month and didn't let you stay longer? Are those gifts useful?" Lan Tian asked curiously.

Wushei nodded and replied: "Colonel Hu is articulate and astute as expected. Zhang's bride obeys his words. The Zhang family, which was dull at the beginning, has become more enthusiastic now."

"Remind him not to be stingy with his property, but to devote equal attention to the Zhang family and secure the Zhang family with benefits, so that Hu Ke's position will be stable," Lan Tian warned.

Wushei replied: "Captain Hu, save it. I will remind you next time we meet."

"Has anything special happened in Jiangdong recently?" Lan Tian asked.

"The generals from Jiangdong have all gone to the Ruxukou front line. Sun Quan asked Zhang Zhao to preside over the ceremony for Captain Hu. Captain Hu..." Wu Hei hesitated to speak.

"What's wrong with Hu Ke?" Gao Shun asked anxiously.

Wushei lowered his head, "Colonel Hu returned a gift to Mr...."

Gao Shun breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned and said, "Don't be so surprised in the future. What's the big deal if you get a gift in return? Just take it out."

"That's a person. I'll temporarily place him in the trading house." Ushei said.

"Why doesn't he come with you?" Lan Tian looked confused.

One of the tasks of Hu Ke and Song Chen was to recruit academic talents for Guangzhou Academy. Unexpectedly, there was not much movement in the north, but Jiangdong was the first to open one.

"That man was kidnapped..." Ushei swallowed.

"Didn't you say that you should convince others with virtue? We are not in Liangshan here, so why should we imitate Wu Yong and use deceit?" Lan Tian was a little anxious when he heard this, and suddenly he spilled the beans.

Gao Shun was the first to react, "Sir, what are you talking about Liangshan? Does this have anything to do with Song Chen?"

"Uh... I'm so angry..." Lan Tian said carelessly.

"Colonel Hu said that man has a great talent and may be someone that Guangzhou Academy needs, but it is not easy to convince people with virtue..." Wushei continued to explain.

"Being able to bring a living person back is considered a great skill of yours. With Sun Quan's suspicious character, wouldn't Jianye leave the port without anyone checking?" Lan Tian couldn't understand.

Wushei: "With the help of Lieutenant Hu and Yu's Trading Company, Sun Quan and a group of generals have gone to Ruxuwu. It is very convenient to just send a little money to the ship."

"Won't that person make trouble on the road?" Gao Shun also looked doubtful.

"We got him drunk in advance and put him in a big wooden box on the ship. We kept him drunk during the rest stops along the way, so he was quite peaceful along the way," Ushei replied.

"Who are the people you have captured?"

"Colonel Hu calls him Mr. Zhao. It is said that he saw him at a wedding. He is the accountant of a commercial bank in Jianye City, but the specific name is unknown..."

Unexpectedly, Lan Tian, ​​a man named Zhao from Jiangdong, frowned and felt that it was difficult to get off the tiger. After all, kidnapping was a very despicable method. Scholars in this era paid more attention to integrity and had to find a way to eliminate the barriers between each other, otherwise it would become a problem.

"I am in Han camp but my heart is in Wu".

Lan Tian was still thinking about how to make up for the situation, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind. The common plot of "Heroes saving beauties" in TV dramas might be used.

"I'm sorry, please go back to the trading company first..." Lan Tian softly described the strategy.

Wushei listened attentively. Lantian asked him to become a Yue businessman who was "looking for talents" and kidnap people back to Guangzhou on the recommendation of Jiangdong Snakehead.

Watching Ushei disappear into the night, Gao Shun asked doubtfully: "Ushei is far less tactful than Abu, will he mess up this matter?"

"Their brothers have been in business for so many years, and they have learned some superficial skills, otherwise they would not be 'bought' by Shi Xie. Sometimes having an honest face is an advantage, but now they can only become a living doctor until later.

You and I will go there in person." Lan Tian spread his hands to express his helplessness.

Guangzhou City, Trade Zone, Shuiyue Trading Company.

The candlelight flickered in the business building, reflecting several long black shadows.

The two Yue men at the door raised their hands and stared at the down-and-out middle-aged Confucian scholar sitting in the hall. He was holding a ledger in his hand, flipping through it boredly, shaking his head as he flipped through it.

After all, they were Yue barbarians, and their account books were kept in a mess.

He had completely sobered up half an hour ago. During these days on the water, he had already known that he had been kidnapped. He had already experienced the fear and panic. He thought he would be taken to a place and sold, but it turned out to be a well-decorated house.

Trading bank, the account books on the counter in the trading bank are the first thing that comes into view.

What kind of place is this? Can paper be obtained so easily? It's really hateful to be wasted by a businessman.

"Mr. Zhao was frightened."
