Chapter 507
"Oh?"
Sun Jian was stunned upon hearing this and said with some surprise: "This Mi clan actually chose to marry into Su Xuan's family?"
"I remember the gentleman said that this Mi clan of Xuzhou is even a tycoon of Xuzhou, the number one wealthy merchant of Xuzhou, and even ranks among the top among all the merchants in the Great Han, right?"
"Correct!"
Zhang Zhao nodded affirmatively: "The Mi clan of Xuzhou probably possesses no less than several million gold, and has countless money and grain; they are absolutely a tycoon in the entire Great Han;"
"It's a pity that they chose to defect to Su Xuan;"
"In this way, Su Xuan's strength and foundation will probably skyrocket again!"
"This person is a big threat! His set of new policies is aimed at our scholar-official class, which is simply hateful!"
Clearly, Zhang Zhao has great hostility toward Su Xuan.
Sun Jian nodded noncommittally, stroked his beard, and pondered: "Do you think we have any possibility of intercepting and getting our hands on the Mi clan's wealth?"
"If we could obtain the Mi clan's money and grain;"
"Not all of it, just half, and I wouldn't have to worry about money and grain in the short term!"
"In fact, I could even expand quite a few troops in a short period of time!"
Clearly, Sun Jian was tempted and jealous of the Mi clan's money and grain.
That is countless small money!
"Lord, absolutely not!"
Zhang Zhao was startled upon hearing this and hurriedly waved his hand: "Lord! You have also seen the intelligence; that Jiangxia navy is so terrifying! There are over a hundred giant warships over fifty meters long, not to mention other warships and transport ships; our navy was only built recently, and both the warships and the quality of the soldiers are far inferior to Su Xuan's Jiangxia navy;"
"At this time, we have just gained a foothold in Yangzhou and are still confronting Liu Biao;"
"At this time, it is absolutely impossible to offend Su Xuan for the sake of this money and grain;"
"Otherwise, even if we succeed at the cost of heavy losses, I'm afraid we will have to face an all-out war with Su Xuan afterward!"
"Don't forget, even without counting his army, his navy alone has the Jiangling navy and the Xiangyang navy;"
"These two navies combined have another thirty or forty thousand troops; how are we supposed to resist by then?"
"If Liu Biao and Su Xuan unite by then, how are we supposed to resist?"
"I ask the Lord to think twice!"
Although money and grain are very tempting, they have thorns!
The thorns are also poisonous, and they cannot be touched.
Doesn't he know that so much money and grain have great benefits for Sun Jian?
But he knows very well what should be taken and what should not be taken.
