LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 54
Cao Jian's domineering promise undoubtedly gave the Mi brothers a reassurance!
At this point, even their biggest worries have been guaranteed, so how can they continue to oppose? It is true that Liu Bei is a potential stock worth investing in.
But Cao Jian is younger, more civil and martial than him, and has a stronger background!
The key is that the younger sister of the Mi family likes him more!
It would be really stupid to leave this brother-in-law who is obviously better in every aspect!
Although the Cao and Mi families have not yet married, Mi Fang has already called him brother-in-law!
As for Cao Jian, who is so shameless?
When they first met outside the gate, he had already shamelessly called out the title of"brother-in-law"!
Both sides shouted in unison.
Mi Zhen felt embarrassed when she heard it, and her face had already turned red like a ripe apple without knowing when!
Even Mi Zhu, the head of the Mi family, who had the most firm position?
After being called"brother-in-law" several times by a shameless person, the bottom line was lowered!
From the initial feeling that it was harsh, to the feeling that it was not bad, and then the more I listened, the more I felt it was pleasing to the ear!
In the end, it was really so confused that it was regarded as tacit consent...
Seeing that the two brothers of the Mi family were settled, Cao Jian couldn't help but feel very happy!
Although Mi Zhu and Mi Fang could not represent Liu Bei with full authority, the Mi family was the major shareholder who bought shares when Liu Bei was in trouble, and Mi Zhu was the head of the civil service group beside Liu Bei, so they were still very important in this matter!
Even the Mi family nodded, and Liu Bei, the master who established himself with"benevolence and righteousness", naturally couldn't get angry at that time, and most of them could only give in!
The main tone of the two ladies Nagan and Mi was determined! As for the specific details of the remaining marriage, there was no rush to finalize it at this moment.
Seeing that the matter was settled, Cao Jian immediately ordered the servants:
Let's call and arrange the two brothers-in-law of the Mi family to go down and have a good rest.
He signaled that someone should hurry down to prepare, and that evening a banquet would be held for the two brothers to welcome them!
With the status of the Mi family in Xuzhou, and with Cao Jian's attention, the banquet was naturally the highest in the city: in addition to the people present, even Chen Deng, Chen Qun, Xu Huang, Le Jin and other civil and military officials were all present!
Xu Huang and Le Jin, the two fierce generals, were the confidants that Cao Jian intended to cultivate. After learning about their young master's thoughts, they were so impressed!
"After conquering Xuzhou, Lü Bu hadn't wiped it out yet!
The Second Young Master had already snatched away four rare beauties, Diao Chan, Madam Du, Madam Gan, and Madam Mi?
I'm afraid even the Lord couldn't match his ability, which was rare in the world!"
Besides their admiration, their attitude towards the two brothers of the Mi family is naturally very friendly!
As the latest outsider to join Xuzhou, Chen Qun is not yet considered Cao Jian's confidant.
But he was discovered by Cao Jian and entered the officialdom after all. With his first-class intelligence and political level, he didn't even need Cao Jian's instructions to know how to show kindness to the two brothers of the Mi family!
These civil and military officials who are destined to shine in the future are constantly toasting back and forth at this time, which is considered to give enough face to the two brothers-in-law of the Mi family!
As for Chen Deng, the representative of the local tyrants and gentry in Xuzhou?
Facing the return of the two brothers of the Mi family, especially Mi Zhu, he is mixed with sadness and joy.
The good news is that from the overall situation of Xuzhou, the Mi family will return to Cao, and will be in a unified camp with the Chen family in the future, which will surely make Xuzhou more prosperous; the sad news is that from the perspective of private family development, the power and development space of the Chen family in Xuzhou will undoubtedly be further suppressed!
"This second son of the Cao family is really a good trick!"
After thousands of sighs, Chen Deng couldn't help but secretly give Cao Jian a thumbs up in his heart.
To say that he is worthy of being a rare first-class hero in the world!
Faced with this situation, he still quickly sorted out his mood.
Then, Chen Deng raised his glass to Mi Zhu and Mi Fang with a smile and drank it all!
……
After the banquet, the excitement gradually faded.
After a few days of fermentation.
The return of the Mi brothers and the commotion caused by this also slowly returned to normal...
During this period, Boss Cao personally decided: for the various contributions Cao Jian had made before, the commendation edict issued in the name of the emperor of the court was finally delivered!
Once the news spread, the whole city was shocked!
A general who was only 18 years old and was awarded after fighting several hard battles!
Such a prominent honor, although not unprecedented, is definitely rare in the world!
For a while!
All kinds of envy and admiration were heard!
Especially those soldiers who saw Cao Jian's mighty power with their own eyes!
Their heartfelt admiration for their young master who was in the limelight was almost like worshiping a god!
There are many such things!
Diao Chan, Du Shi, Gan Mei, and Mi Zhen, the four beauties, were overjoyed when they learned about the honors their men had won!
The smiles on their faces were so beautiful!
As for the brothers Mi Zhu and Mi Fang, they felt proud after hearing this news.
"Our future brother-in-law has a bright future.……"
Mi Fang, who was laughing foolishly, couldn't help but assert on the spot:
""Brother! In my opinion, choosing the Cao family and the second son of Cao is the right choice!
If nothing unexpected happens, this may be the most correct investment made by our Mi family!"
Hearing this, Mi Zhu could not help but nodded, and rarely agreed with his brother's opinion:
"My second brother is right! From the current point of view, this investment is indeed promising in the future.……"
While he was calculating in his mind, he suddenly remembered something, and his expression changed slightly!
Then, Mi Zhu couldn't help but began to mutter to himself:
"This investment is correct! But...what about the huge bet on Lord Xuande?……"
Thinking back to the past, in order to help Liu Bei make a comeback, he gave people away and spent money like water to recruit soldiers and horses!
The expenses were so huge that the money spent could not be explained or calculated, and it was an astronomical figure!
Now when he thought about it, Mi Zhu suddenly felt a pain in his heart:
"No! I'm not mistaken.——！！"
"The second son of Cao has a bright future and will become a great man in the future; however, Lord Xuande can also be called a contemporary hero, and is definitely not an ordinary person!
As long as time passes, Lord Xuande may be able to establish his own territory and become a local lord, and his achievements may not necessarily be inferior to those of the Cao family!"
"This is a time of chaos, and until the last moment, anyone can turn the tide!"
"The Mi family's money must not be wasted, nor can it be put in just one basket!
The bets that have been made must not be abandoned halfway before they are recovered.……"
As this thought came to his mind, the light in Mi Zhu's eyes became more determined!
After thinking for a long time, he finally made a decision:
"Second brother, hurry up! Go and invite my younger sister and the second son over!
I have something important to discuss with you!!"
…………
After half a cup of tea,
Cao Jian and Mi Zhen came in a hurry.
In this internal meeting of the Mi family, Mi Zhu revealed everything in his mind!
After hearing this, the second brother Mi Fang could not help but nod repeatedly:
As a family of merchants, the concept of diversified investment is naturally deeply rooted in their bones!
Even Mi Fang, a fool, is not unfamiliar with this. Mi
Zhen, the youngest sister of the Mi family, bit her red lips when she heard it, not knowing how to express her opinion?
From the perspective of a member of the Mi family, she naturally recognized the concept of her eldest brother, because diversifying bets is indeed more conducive to the Mi family's income; however, from the perspective of Cao Jian's future wife and concubine, it is obvious that she hopes that the Mi family can concentrate resources and fully support the Cao family!
Being in two contradictory roles, Mi Zhen was a little at a loss for a while: it seemed that no matter how she expressed her opinion, it was wrong? In the end, she could only express her abstention by silence!
Therefore, the possible disagreement in the end depends entirely on Cao Jian's attitude!
Facing the gazes cast by Mi Zhu and Mi Fang?
Cao Jian's face showed no sadness or joy, but he was sneering in his heart:
"The Mi family is a businessman after all! Businessmen pursue profits, and that has been the case for ages!"
"At this time, you are still thinking about betting on both sides?"
