Chapter 913

Recently, Cao Cao has truly been feeling extremely miserable, because he has never had any good subordinates.

Especially now, although it is said that Dong Zhuo has already run away, Lu Bu and his people have actually started attacking him.

It makes him feel completely speechless, and furthermore, there are no good brothers by his side.

"Oh my, what should I do? Right now, I am truly lacking many things by my side. First, we have no grain, and second, we don't have many soldiers either. Oh my, Cao Hong, what are you looking at?".

At this moment, Cao Cao looked directly at his big brother and discovered that this guy seemed to be stirring up trouble here.

All along, he had felt that he could trust these brothers of his, but he never expected that this bastard would be spacing out right there.

It is simply too abominable. How could he be like this? It makes many people feel that this guy is truly a bit speechless, don't you think?

What kind of people are these? All of them.

"Oh, Big Brother, it's like this. Right now, at this moment, I also feel quite helpless. I'm thinking, can we have some high-yield things?"

"For example, if we got some high-yield grain or something, wouldn't we be living the good life later on?"

Cao Hong and Xia Hou Dun were also considering this there.

These two guys have always felt that they are geniuses themselves, so neither of them wants to be a military general anymore; they want to be civil officials.

For them, this is truly a very challenging matter, so these two people are thinking about it a lot right now.

At this moment, the two of them didn't want to say anything else; they just wanted to get these things done.

But what people didn't expect was that now things have turned out like this; there is no grain or anything around, and they are all about to starve to death.

Look at these things on the table again; there isn't even a piece of meat. What his family eats is basically just some coarse grains.

They have even started eating rice made from beans.

"Big Brother, look at how poor we have become now! If it doesn't work out, let's still think of some ways to earn some money, Big Brother."

Xia Houyuan, Xia Hou Dun, and Cao Hong—these few people are truly very worried. Seeing that Cao Cao has become like this now, they also feel their heads buzzing.

They truly feel very heartbroken for their brother. Seeing their brother like this now, they are heartbroken beyond words.

"Brother, I recently received some news that someone wants to sell us grain and such. Brother, do you want to go take a look? Actually, I think it's quite good."

A smug expression appeared on Cao Hong's face. He wouldn't tell such things to just any ordinary person.

It's only because he sees his big brother is extremely miserable right now that he said it; otherwise, he wouldn't want to say it at all.

"Oh? Is it really like that? I am completely dumbfounded right now!"

Instinctively, Cao Cao felt that something was ten out of twelve parts wrong. This big brother of his could be said to be good at everything, except for being extremely greedy.

He loves money, loves women, and is greedy for wealth and lust.

If it weren't for the fact that he is his own brother, he would have killed him long ago.

"What do you want to say? Whose things did you see? I can support you, but don't scam me. I will solve the problem of military grain, you bastard!"

"Did you go find scholars as you were told, or not? You useless people!"

Cao Cao felt a headache. Recently, he has truly been very miserable, even though it is said that he, Cao Cao, is also extremely intelligent.

He even looks down on most people, and even feels that these mediocre people are not worth plotting with.

But no matter how powerful Cao Cao is, he is only one person after all.

And contending for the world is not a small matter; even if he knew the art of cloning, he would still be exhausted to death.

"You people, you people, you really make my head spin!"

Cao Cao just feels that the situation is truly headache-inducing. What is this all about?

So annoying!

However, Xia Houyuan's eyes lit up, and he said, "Big Brother, don't be angry. I really found a smart person. His name is... Xi... I forgot, damn it!"

Cao Cao was immediately shocked. How could there still be such a person?

Is the name actually so peculiar? It's scary, truly scary; it has a bit of a terrifying feeling.

"Is it true or false? His name is truly terrifying. Oh my mother!"

"Oh my, oh my, such a person is also rarely seen. He is actually named 'Chou'?"

Cao Cao appeared very shocked. That someone actually has a name similar to his—they all have a kind of miraculous coincidence.

They all have a charm that disregards life and death.

"Oh, it's Xi Zhicai, not 'Chou'!"

Cao Hong said speechlessly. It seems his brothers' brains are not very smart.

How should I put it? Speechless, right? What is the situation with this group of people?

However, even so, he smiled slightly. He still likes his brothers very much; after all, this is a group of very good people.

Cao Hong said, "Big Brother, this time I am truly not lying to you! The person is really very good, and this time it is also an opportunity for you. This person is the legendary Zhuge Wolong, Zhuge Liang. He says he wants to bring us some brand-new experiences and give us a shock to the soul!"

Really? Cao Cao was shocked. To tell the truth, he is not afraid of his brothers lying!

Because with that IQ of his, lying is definitely something he couldn't do, so is this true?

Cao Cao took a deep breath and felt it was still pretty good. This feeling is truly very good, so he just went over directly.

"Good, very good, extremely good. Since it is Zhuge Wolong who came personally, let's go take a look together; maybe we can even leave a good impression!"

Cao Cao ran out excitedly, barefoot. He looked as if he couldn't wait any longer. Meeting such a smart person is truly very rare.

If he could win him over directly, that would be the best thing.

Anyway, for their current situation, they are lacking too many things.

But Cao Cao is still very smart. He didn't go find Zhuge Liang, but went to find Xi Zhicai first.

How should I put it? Xi Zhicai is also a very excellent talent, and his IQ is also very high.

It's just one thing: he looks very dissolute, and the clothes he wears are also very mediocre. Anyone who didn't know would think he was some kind of beggar.

It can only be said that it makes people feel very heartbroken. Anyway, he just felt that something wasn't quite right.

"Oh my, Xi Zhicai, why are you... oh my, on such a hot day, it's too heartbreaking. Come here, someone! Prepare some mung bean water for my brother to drink, and then prepare some ice cubes, and add plenty of sugar!".
