~2 min read 317 words

Yuan Shu wanted to embezzle the remaining grain of the Allied Forces, but was blocked by Liu Bei leading Zhang Fei,

"Yuan Gonglu, I have seven hundred thousand mouths in Luoyang waiting to eat; this remaining grain should be taken by me!"

Yuan Shu was naturally unhappy,

"Liu Bei, everyone has already supported you with 700,000 shi of grain; don't push your luck!"
