Chapter 260

Many Qingzhou noble families also bought grain on the spot to avoid the trouble of transportation, which instantly revitalized the economy around Linzi.

"My lord, the people of Qingzhou have been speaking well of you these past few days."

Taishi Ziyi said with admiration.

Liu Bei nodded; he could be considered to have established his reputation in Qingzhou.

"Hey, there are many people at that pier."

Taishi Ziyi cupped his hands.

"My lord, that is the Mi family's pier. At least half of the grain and other goods purchased by the noble families this time came from them."

Liu Bei nodded; this Mi Zhen was truly capable!

The Mi family was indeed wealthy!

"Let's go, let's go over and take a look."

Mi Zhen had just finished inspecting the operation of the pier and was planning to go back and change into women's clothing.

"This Lord Xuande is really... he even grabbed my hand. I look like this, and he actually couldn't tell I was a woman? It's a waste that your eyes can glow... hehe."

Mi Zhen recalled the meeting with Liu Bei just now; it was a bit sweet and left a deep impression!

Suddenly, Mi Zhen's little hand was grabbed again.

Liu Bei smiled.

"Young Master Mi, we are truly fated, we meet again!"

"I hadn't chatted enough just now, let's continue chatting now!"

Mi Zhen... this Lord Xuande is truly fast at taking action!

Everyone looked over.

"Oh my, isn't that Lord Xuande!"

"Lord Xuande is holding the young lady's hand!"

"The two of them? No wonder they sent so much grain and fodder to Lord Xuande this time, it turns out the young lady was sending her own dowry!"

"A talented man and a beautiful woman, they are such a good match!"

Liu Bei seemed to be startled suddenly.

"You are a woman? Mi Zhu's younger sister?"

Mi Zhen quietly gave Liu Bei a beautiful eye-roll and bowed gracefully.

"Young woman Mi Zhen greets Lord Xuande."

Liu Bei smiled.

"So you are Mi Zhen, truly the number one beauty of Xuzhou. Brother Zizhong mentioned you before."

Mi Zhen... he was still calling me Brother Mi before,

and now I'm the number one beauty. Men, ha!

"Lord Xuande, my big brother Mi Zhu will arrive here tomorrow."

She thought of what her big brother had said to her before, and her face turned even redder.

Liu Bei smiled.

"Miss Mi, why don't you take me to visit this Mi family Chamber of Commerce?"

"Oh, okay, Lord Xuande, please."

The two began to chat as if no one else was around.

Mi Zhen discovered that Liu Bei also had a humorous side and covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Lord Xuande, the world calls you a great hero, I didn't expect you to be so approachable."

Liu Bei smiled.

"Two years ago, I was still selling straw sandals in Zhuoxian, counting pennies to get by; I was much worse off than you, Miss Mi."

Mi Zhen shook her head.

"Lord Xuande traveled thousands of miles to send troops, defeated the Huang Jin army, assassinated Dong Zhuo, saved the people of Luoyang, and today you crushed Dong Zhuo's great army. Which of these things isn't going to be passed down for a thousand years? This young woman couldn't admire you enough."

Liu Bei sighed.

"The people in these chaotic times are suffering; I am just doing a little of what I can."

Mi Zhen was moved to the point of tears; she wanted to give herself, phew, no, her wealth to Liu Bei!

The two chatted for a long time again.

"Lord Xuande is truly a great talent, no wonder the Great Scholar Cai admires you."

Stars appeared in Mi Zhen's eyes; this Liu Bei was absolutely the best husband in the Great Han.

Talent, martial prowess, handsomeness, reputation, and the key is that he is also humorous and considerate...

"Oh my, why hasn't big brother arrived yet! What if Lord Xuande leaves!"

Mi Zhen began to feel anxious.

The broadcast room was full of a sour taste.

"The Eared Thief is always spot on when picking up girls!"

"The admiration in this Miss Mi's eyes can't even be hidden!"

"Sigh, marrying such a little rich girl is my lifelong goal, and Liu Bei is already on his second and looking at his third!"

"Eared Thief, draw your sword!"

On the evening of the second day,

Mi Zhu, dusty from the journey, arrived in Linzi.

"Lord Xuande, I have arrived late!"

Liu Bei carefully helped Mi Zhu pat the dust off his body.

"Brother Zizhong, you are dusty from the journey, you have worked hard."

Mi Zhu was moved inside and sighed at length.

"The day we drank and chatted at the Yellow River ferry with you is still vivid in my mind. I didn't expect that in such a short time, you would have crushed Dong Zhuo's great army and shaken the world!"

"Now you have even solved the Qingzhou Huang Jin disaster and gained a million people!"

Liu Bei smiled.

"Just luck, Brother Zizhong, about the matter of your younger sister we discussed that day..."

Mi Zhu was overjoyed, the corners of his mouth almost splitting to his ears.

"Lord Xuande, I came today for this very matter. My little sister Mi Zhen has extreme admiration for you..."

Liu Bei couldn't help but smile.

"Mi Zhen is naturally beautiful, has a chaste and determined character, knows the way of business, and is also generous and open; we get along very well."

Liu Bei's reputation was different now; defeating Dong Zhuo had shaken the world.

Mi Zhu had been afraid that Liu Bei would look down on their Mi family, but now it seemed Liu Bei still valued him very much.

He hurriedly cupped his hands.

"Lord Xuande, since everyone is in Linzi City, let's just get this matter done."

Liu Bei felt it was feasible; the noble families of Qingzhou hadn't left yet and were looking for him to drink every day, which had cost him quite a bit of money.

This time he would earn the protection money back all at once!

"Good, three days from now I will welcome Mi Zhen."

"Thank you, Lord Xuande!"

"I should be the one thanking you."

Liu Bei patted Mi Zhu on the shoulder.

"Zizhong, Wuyuan Commandery is in ruins and urgently needs talent like you to serve as Commandery Governor. Don't decline this time."

Mi Zhu bowed.

"Yes, my lord!"

Liu Bei helped him up, and the two held hands tightly.

Although Mi Zhu hadn't been able to become Liu Bei's main investor this time, he was much safer than in history!
