Bai Ren finally thought for a while and felt that since he was undecided, it was better to join Cao Cao's side now and see how things went.
If he was unhappy, he would be like Chen Gong in history.
He would leave Cao Cao's camp and then join Liu Bei or Sun Quan's camp. .
The sound of "Gulu" rang out from Bai Ren's stomach.
Bai Ren touched his belly with his hand and realized that Bai Ren might have died because he couldn't stand the cold and hungry environment.
Otherwise, I would not have the chance to come to this era.
At this moment, a voice came from the distance.
Bai Ren resisted his hunger and looked into the distance, and suddenly his face showed a trace of joy.
I saw a caravan coming from the distance, with a luxurious carriage in front and a few horses pulling the goods behind, walking from the south to the north.
Bai Ren saw hope and ran towards the caravan with his belly in his arms.
Bai Ren endured hunger and ran for two or three hundred meters.
Looking at the caravan getting closer and closer to him, he panted and shouted with all his strength, his face flushed: "Stop, stop, help." ah" The caravan suddenly saw a man running in front of him, blocking the caravan's way to the north.
The groom driving the horse saw a panting young man on the road blocking the way.
Then he looked at Bai Ren's clothes and thinness.
His face suddenly became a little bad, and he yelled at Bai Ren: "Where are the refugees from?
They dare to block our Mi family's caravan.
Are you tired of living?"
Bai Ren bent over and pressed his thigh with one hand.
He raised his head and looked at the stopped caravan.
When he heard a caravan driver insulting him like this, Bai Qi even felt the pain on the driver's face. murderous look.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Sure enough, human life in troubled times is not valuable.
"Mi Wu, what happened outside?"
The curtain of the carriage was opened, and a gentle middle-aged man walked out, wearing a Xichuan brocade robe, with a jade pendant hanging around his waist, and holding what seemed to be a skeleton made of white jade. fan, eyes like a spring breeze, looking calmly at the angry groom sitting in front of the carriage.
"Master, you see there is a refugee in front of us blocking our way."
The coachman named Mi Wu saw his master walking out and put away his anger.
He pointed respectfully at Bai Ren, who was in tatters in front of the carriage. said his master.
Bai Qi raised his head and looked curiously at the handsome man walking out of the carriage, and secretly used the ultra-brain chip in his mind.
Mi Zhu, age 30, has a force value of 50, strength of 50, speed of 46, and skill of 54. , the command value is 35, 30 for cavalry, 40 for infantry, and 35 for sailors. , intelligence value 84, strategy 78, politics 92, overall situation 83.
Personality: Businessman's vision, trust and loyalty, humility and courtesy.
Bai Ren looked at Mi Zhu carefully, and it turned out that this elegant middle-aged man was Mi Zhu, the number one rich man in Xuzhou.
Historically, Mi Zhu can be said to be Liu Bei's early investor and civil servant.
When Liu Bei came to Xuzhou, Mi Zhu saw that Liu Bei was not a man of the water, so Mi Zhu not only gave Liu Bei money, but also gave Liu Bei his beautiful young sister.
This middle-aged uncle, but history proves that Mi Zhu’s vision is Correct, but later Mi Zhu was tricked by his younger brother.
His younger brother Mi Fang betrayed Liu Bei and joined Sun Quan, which also caused Guan Yu to be defeated and killed.
Although Liu Bei did not blame Mi Zhu, in the end Mi Zhu was depressed because of this unsatisfactory younger brother.
Unhappy, he soon accompanied Liu Bei.
"Oh, Mi Wu, go and give him those two big cakes, and he will leave on his own."
Mi Zhu looked at Bai Ren and looked at him for a moment, then smiled softly and ordered Mi Wu to get two The big cake is used to send the white kernel away.
When Mi Wu saw his master saying this, he quickly dismounted and walked towards the truck behind him.
Bai Ren watched Mi Wu jump off the carriage before he came back to his senses.
He suddenly realized that he was penniless and wanted to go to Cao Cao.
The journey must be difficult.
I am afraid that halfway through, he would either be air-conditioned or starve to death, but Mi Zhu was He is a rich man.
If he hugged Mi Zhu's lap now, maybe he would suffer a lot less.
In the face of countless unknown difficulties, shamelessness is nothing.

Bai Ren looked at Mi Zhu with shamelessness and said in a consultative tone to Mi Zhu who was standing on the carriage: "Mi Zhu is big, do you want to accept people?"
"What is this?
Do you want to join our Mi family's caravan?"
Mi Zhu suddenly found that Bai Ren, who was wearing rags in front of the carriage, seemed to be talking to him.
Hearing Bai Ren's words with a modern tone, he was confused for a moment, and then He asked, looking a little surprised at Bai Ren, who was looking at him longingly.
As the richest man in Xuzhou, the Mi family is very famous, so it is normal for Bai Ren to recognize Mi Zhu.
Mi Zhu only saw Bai Ren for a while, and Bai Ren took the initiative to join the Mi family caravan, which made Mi Zhu feel very strangeness.
"As you are, our young master is being kind to you by giving you two big cakes.
You still expect to join the Mi family's caravan."
Mi Wu had already taken out two big cakes from the truck at the back and left from behind.
Come over, after hearing Bai Ren's words, he looked at Bai Ren with a somewhat sarcastic expression.
"The Mi family is the largest wealthy businessman's family in Xuzhou.
It should need to keep accounts.
I'm good at math.
I can help you settle the accounts."
Bai Ren looked a little embarrassed after hearing Mi Wu's words.
He then looked at Mi Zhu's confused eyes and thought.
After a while, he had his own plan, so he said to Mi Zhu confidently.
"Oh."
Mi Zhu listened to Bai Ren's words and looked at Bai Qi, who was in tattered clothes in front of the carriage, with a somewhat surprised look on his face, with some disbelief in his eyes.
After all, the way Bai Ren is dressed now, it seems that he is a commoner at best, or a homeless beggar at worst.
Arithmetic is one of the six arts of a gentleman.
If he is not a rich man or a scholar, it is difficult to get in touch with him.
Tao counts, so Mi Zhu doesn't believe Bai Ren's words.
"If you don't believe me, you can take a test on me."
Bai Ren looked at the disbelieving eyes of Mi Zhu and Mi Wu beside him, and said to them anxiously.
Mi Zhu looked at Bai Ren's longing eyes and thought that God had a good life.
After thinking about it for a while, he decided to give Bai Ren a chance, so he said: "One stone of food is eight yuan, how much does three stone of food cost?"
"A total of twenty-four dollars is needed."
Bai Ren laughed in his heart after hearing this and said to Mi Zhu confidently.
This question is so simple that even a primary school student in the 21st century can answer it.
Mi Wu saw Bai Ren answering the question next to Mi Zhu.
He looked at Bai Ren's confident look with a normal expression, and said to Bai Ren with disdain: "Our young master thinks you are pitiful, so we went out."
It’s such a simple question, even a rough guy like me, Mi Wu, knows the answer.”
When Mi Zhu saw Mi Wu say this, he stared at Mi Wu seriously.
Mi Wu obediently closed his mouth after looking at it, and then turned his body to the side.
After listening to Mi Wu's words, Bai Ren realized that Mi Zhu was flirting with him, and he felt uncomfortable, which meant that Mi Zhu didn't value him very much.
An idea came to his mind, and he smiled slightly and asked Mi Zhu: "Master Mi Zhu, on the first day You can sell one stone of grain, the next day you can sell two stone, the third day you can sell three stone, each day you sell one stone more grain than the previous day, I would like to ask Mr.
Mi Zhu, how much grain can you sell in twenty days?"
Originally, Mi Zhu wanted to comfort Bai Ren, but when she suddenly heard the question raised by Bai Ren, she listened normally at first, but when she heard the last part, her face became very solemn, and she kept counting her own Fingers, trying to get the answer.
"You must be just talking casually.
You definitely can't tell the answer to this question."
Mi Wu didn't feel anything was wrong at first, but seeing the young master's serious expression, he picked up his fingers and started counting, but he couldn't figure it out at all.
The answer, Bai Ren suddenly became angry and said.
"Who said I can't tell the answer to this question?

Listen up, the total grain sold in twenty days is two hundred and ten shi."
Bai Ren heard Mi Wu's questioning words, so he was very sure Tell the answer to this question.
"You are absolutely talking nonsense."
Mi Wu didn't believe Bai Ren's answer at all, and directly insisted that Bai Ren was talking nonsense.
"Mi Wu, shut up and go get my calculations."
Mi Zhu looked at Mi Wu with a bad expression.
After working with his head and fingers for a while, he realized that he couldn't solve this problem without using tools, so he quickly let him know.
Mi Wu took out his calculation tools
