Chapter 330

This not only concerns the future of their Mi family, but also concerns Mi Zhen's future happiness.

"I know!"

Mi Zhen waved her hand disappointedly: "I'm not stupid! Naturally, I won't mess around! Big brother, don't worry!"

"General Su is such a good person, how could I make him angry? You are just overthinking."

Mi Zhu: "..."

What is all this!

You haven't even met Su Xuan, yet you think he is a good person. What is the logic?

The power of idols is really strong!

2 days later,

The Jiang Jiang Xiajun navy successfully arrived at the port of Jiangxia Commandery.

Afterward, leaving most of the navy's warships and troops behind, Huang Gai took three warships and a large number of transport ships alone, transporting the Mi clan's people and money and grain, and it took less than a day to finally arrive at the port of Jiangling.

At this time, Su Xuan had already brought Guo Jia to wait here.

Seeing Mi Zhu and the others disembark, Su Xuan walked up to welcome them with a smile: "Haha! Brother Brother Zizhong! You are finally here! I have been waiting for a long time!"

"Governor?"

Mi Zhu and the others were shocked to see Su Xuan, and Mi Zhu hurriedly bowed respectfully to Su Xuan: "How dare I trouble you to come and welcome us in person? You are shaming me, Mi Zhu!"

"Oh! What are you saying!"

Su Xuan laughed as he helped Mi Zhu up, patted his shoulder, and said, "Brother Zizhong, since you have made such a great resolution to bring the entire Mi family to Jingzhou to join me, and we are already in-laws, what is wrong with me coming out to welcome you?"

The wealth the Mi family brought is no less than 5 million gold, and the grain is no less than 3 million shi.

Other various supplies are countless.

Mi Zhu had already decided beforehand that most of this would be given to Su Xuan as Mi Zhen's dowry.

With such a grand gesture, what is wrong with him coming out to welcome them?

Not to mention that Mi Zhen is a great beauty, just for the sake of this wealth, it is worth Su Xuan's time to make a trip and leave a good impression on the Mi family.

Furthermore, it can leave an even deeper impression of being a leader who respects the virtuous!

It is truly a matter that achieves multiple goals at once.

"No, no! I only admire the Governor's brilliance and martial prowess, which is why I made the correct choice! I am unworthy of such a grand gesture from the Governor!"

Although Mi Zhu was incredibly happy and moved inside, he still returned the courtesy with humility on the surface.

"Haha!"

Su Xuan chuckled, then looked at Mi Fang beside him and said, "You must be Brother Zifang, right? I heard you have a dream of being a general?"

"Eh?"

Mi Fang was stunned for a moment upon hearing Su Xuan's words, then looked at Su Xuan excitedly and nodded, "Yes! Governor! My life's ambition is to become an invincible famous general. Now I also want to serve in the army under your command, Governor, please grant me this!"

How could he miss such a good opportunity?

"Oh?"

Su Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly at Mi Fang's boldness, then nodded and said, "Very well! I agree!"

"As for your appointment, it is temporarily reserved! Once you have followed our army's rules and trained in the new recruit camp for three months, we will arrange it after you successfully graduate!"

"Believe me, as long as you have talent, I will never bury it!"

As he spoke, Su Xuan patted Mi Fang's shoulder.

"Yes!"

Although Mi Fang did not know what the new recruit camp was, he felt Su Xuan's importance placed on him and was incredibly moved.

He thought to himself, "Indeed, the world says General Su Xuan employs people without regard for their background, and now it seems it is true!"

Su Xuan then gestured with his chin toward Xu Chu, who was standing to the side, and said, "Zhongkang! After I marry Miss Mi, you will arrange for Brother Zifang to enter the new recruit camp for training!"

"Remember to give me a heads-up and take good care of Brother Zifang, understand?"

Mi Fang felt even more moved upon hearing this.

The Lord has me in his heart! He even specifically asked someone to take care of me.

Too thoughtful.

"Hehe! No problem! Lord! Leave it to me!"

Xu Chu listened, looked at Mi Fang, and vaguely discerned Mi Fang's thoughts. He grinned and said, "Brother Brother Zifang! Please bear with me later!"

"No! No! It is I who should ask General Zhongkang to bear with me!"

Mi Fang hurriedly returned the courtesy.

His enthusiasm made Xu Chu feel a bit embarrassed.

He thought, "Mi Fang! Mi Fang! It's not that I, Xu Chu, want to trick you! It's that you don't understand the Lord's meaning yourself!"

Taking care of him is indeed taking care of him, but it is definitely not what Mi Fang thinks.

Although it is all for Mi Fang's own good, Xu Chu believes that once Mi Fang knows what Su Xuan's so-called "taking care" entails, he will definitely not want to accept it.

Su Xuan naturally took in Mi Fang's expression and sighed helplessly in his heart, "Mi Fang! Mi Fang! Don't blame me for being too harsh on you! It's just that you really don't have much military talent!"

"And, you don't have much self-awareness either!"

"Since you are determined to become a general, I cannot go against your wishes, so I can only find a way to train and strengthen you!"

"I believe that once you know the hardships of the army, you will change."

Su Xuan was indeed prepared to let Mi Fang serve in the army.

But it was definitely not the combat general position Mi Fang imagined, but rather as a logistics supervisor.

According to the intelligence from the Secret Guards, Mi Fang is absolutely a failure when it comes to martial arts and commanding troops.

But he is a genius when it comes to business.

The army's logistics department is also a very important part, and it is in need of talent like Mi Fang who is proficient in business and arithmetic to manage it.

Previously, this aspect was mainly managed by Zhen Yan.

But as the number of troops under Su Xuan's command continues to expand, a single Zhen Yan is far from enough.

Mi Fang's arrival is just in time.

Even if he hadn't voluntarily offered his services today, Su Xuan would have found an opportunity to get him into the army's logistics department later.

Mi Zhu, standing to the side, saw that Su Xuan had actually let his second brother join the army and felt a bit worried.

He knew very well how much his second brother was worth.

He had no talent for commanding troops or fighting in battles at all.

Is it really good to let Mi Fang go into the army?

If he ruins the important affairs of Su Xuan's army, that would be bad.

But Mi Zhu could not bring himself to directly dissuade Mi Fang or refuse this heavy trust on his behalf.

Because he knew too well how long his second brother had been waiting for this day.

He could not crush or extinguish his dream.

"Sigh!"

In the end, all words turned into a deep sigh. Mi Zhu patted his second brother's shoulder and said earnestly, "Second brother! Since the Governor values you so much, you must work hard in the army and never fail the Governor's trust and importance, understand?"

He only hoped that his second brother could stand tall and truly show even a little bit of military talent.

"Yes!"

Mi Fang nodded confidently, patted his chest, and said, "Big brother, don't worry! I will never let you or the Lord down."

"Alright! This is not the place to talk, let's return to Jiangling City first!"

At this moment, Su Xuan clapped his hands, attracting the attention of Mi Zhu and the others, and led them toward Jiangling City.

Of course, he also saw Mi Zhen, but he did not act rudely; he simply made eye contact with her and nodded with a smile.

As for anything more, there is no need to rush; after all, Mi Zhen will soon be his wife, won't she?

Half a month later, Su Xuan married again.

He took Diao Chan, Cai Yan, Zhang Ning, and Mi Zhen as concubines all at once.

Because of Cai Yan's presence, this time it was much grander than the previous time he took concubines, and many people were invited.

However, it still could not compare to the first time he married Xun Cai.

In this regard, Su Xuan was very careful and intentionally took care of Xun Cai's face and feelings.
