Chapter 778

~5 min read 985 words

Time.

Time.

Still time, he still needed to endure for more than a year.

Seeing the angry atmosphere in the camp gradually subside, Li Ru also breathed a sigh of relief.

"The Lord is wise; only by enduring can we pass through safely," Li Ru said, bowing.

Duan Yu took a deep breath and nodded: "Mr. Wenyou, rest assured, I will definitely not let my father-in-law's painstaking efforts go to waste, nor will I let my father-in-law suffer humiliation in vain."

"Boping, you all go out first," Duan Yu looked at Gao Shun and others: "I have a few words to say to Mr. Wenyou."

Gao Shun and others stood up one after another, and after saluting Duan Yu, walked out of the tent.

Only Duan Yu and Li Ru were left in the tent.

"Mr. Wenyou, from the time I was humble, I rose under the witness of Mr. Wenyou."

"I feel that Mr. Wenyou can be trusted by me."

"So there are some things I don't intend to hide from Mr. Wenyou," Duan Yu looked at Li Ru.

Li Ru straightened his expression: "The Lord's father-in-law is Li Ru's master, and Li Ru also admires the Lord's ability very much."

"Now that the master is in trouble, before leaving, he told Li Ru that everything in the future would be under the Lord's command."

"If the Lord does not dislike Li Ru for being shallow in talent, Li Ru will naturally serve the Lord as a dog and horse."

With that, Li Ru bowed deeply.

Duan Yu nodded: "Mr. Wenyou's ability is rare in the world; if I want to succeed, I naturally cannot do without Mr. Wenyou's help."

"In fact, I have seen what Mr. Wenyou has done for me for more than a year."

"There will be many things to rely on in the future, so please Mr. Wenyou take care."

After these words, Li Ru had no more scruples in his heart.

Dong Zhuo had already entrusted all his family assets to Duan Yu that night.

This time the court's punishment was to reduce the death penalty by one degree.

That was life imprisonment.

Dong Zhuo would not be able to come out for a short time.

When he could come out would depend on Duan Yu.

The family fortune that Dong Zhuo had saved over the years.

Including the generals under his command, all belonged to Duan Yu this time.

But the current Duan Yu was no longer the Duan Yu of more than a year ago; there were not a few capable people under Duan Yu.

Li Ru also worried that he would be marginalized.

But Duan Yu sent everyone away, leaving only him.

Li Ru knew that he had not been marginalized.

Naturally, he was quite moved.

"Mr. Wenyou, do you know why I wrote to ask my father-in-law not to attack Guangzong?" Duan Yu looked at Li Ru and asked.

Li Ru stroked his beard and thought carefully: "Is it related to the Huang Jin in this Guangzong city?"

Duan Yu smiled and nodded, then said: "Exactly."

"Father-in-law often says that Mr. Wenyou is good at planning, and it is true."

"To tell you the truth, the Huang Jin army in this city is now all controlled by my people."

Duan Yu revealed the shocking secret in Guangzong city.

"Ah?" Li Ru was stunned on the spot as if struck by lightning.

Li Ru guessed that Duan Yu had some connection with the Huang Jin rebels in Guangzong city, but he did not expect that the Huang Jin rebels in Guangzong city were all controlled by Duan Yu.

"Mr. Wenyou, don't be surprised; in fact, I started laying out plans in Jizhou very early."

"Now there are several of my subordinates in the city, including Zhang Jiao, who is beside the new person."

"And the reason why I want to do this is actually to have a purpose."

Duan Yu continued: "Remember when I went to Luoyang last year and discussed with Mr. Wenyou where I would take office, I chose Liangzhou."

"I want to use Liangzhou as a foundation to build a family business."

"But Liangzhou has natural flaws."

Li Ru nodded slowly: "Liangzhou, Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Liaodong are all places very suitable for building a foundation."

"But the natural flaws of these places are also very obvious."

"Sparsely populated, and also extremely cold and bitter..."

Speaking of this, the expression on Li Ru's face suddenly paused, and then he looked at Duan Yu in surprise and said: "Could it be that the Lord wants to..."

Talking to smart people is simple.

You don't have to say everything clearly.

Just one point is enough.

Migrating population to Liangzhou.

In fact, he was not the first to do this.

In fact, most of the population of Liangzhou had been migrated from the Guanzhong area little by little since the Western Han Dynasty.

Migrating population to Liangzhou was mainly to consolidate the Han people's control over Liangzhou.

Of course, that was the will of the imperial court.

And this time Duan Yu wanted to migrate the people to Liangzhou, it was not that simple.

First, there must be a reasonable excuse to convince the imperial court.

Secondly, there must be conditions to make the people willing.

Of course, Duan Yu had no proof in the matter of making the people willing.

Therefore, he could only use, or borrow, Zhang Jiao's power.

Zhang Jiao's prestige among the people in Jizhou was far stronger than the imperial court and the emperor.

"This plan will take a long time to execute, and it is not clear for a while. After a while, Mr. Wenyou will naturally understand."

"But the problem that needs to be solved first is Lu Zhi."

Duan Yu narrowed his eyes and said: "While he is here, my plan cannot be carried out." ===== CHAPTER 780 =====
