Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 99 The Significance of Growing Potatoes
"That's right," Yuan Shao cheered up, and said, "If Cao Cao refuses to beg for peace, the millions of soldiers in Hebei will definitely fight to the end!"

After a moment of silence, Jia Xu said lightly: "Since that's the case, wait for me to reply to Prime Minister Cao and ask him to make a decision."

Yuan Shao sneered, waved his hands and said, "Go back and tell Cao Cao that he doesn't have much time left."

Jia Xu seemed to have never heard of it, and bowed, "I will take my leave."

After finishing speaking, he turned and walked out.

After he left, Yuan Shao heaved a sigh of relief, his eyes fell on Guo Tu, and he asked with concern: "What is Tan Er doing recently?"

Guo Tu was embarrassed, and said hesitantly: "Reporting to my lord, the eldest son is... farming outside the city..."

As soon as he said this, the civil servants and generals in the hall smiled and couldn't help but laugh.

Don't want to be the son of the world, but have to go to farm, this eldest son is unprecedented.

Yuan Shao was even more furious, and said angrily, "This rebellious son... hasn't planted enough land yet?"

"This..." Seeing Yuan Shao getting angry, Guo Tu didn't know how to answer, so he could only say: "Young Master is very clever, he probably has other plans..."

Yuan Shao was furious, and couldn't help cursing: "It's really a useless thing...",

……

Outside Yanzhou City, Yuan Tan, holding a short knife, is demonstrating potato planting techniques.

Suddenly, the system prompts sounded endlessly.

"Ding! You are disgusted by Fengji, and you have gained 99+ experience points"

"Ding! You have been rejected by the trial, and you have gained experience points of 99+"

"Ding! You were..."

"Ding! You have angered Yuan Shao and gained 999+ experience points"

Yuan Tan was startled, stopped what he was doing, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

I am Nima, what's the situation?
Planting a broken potato can provoke so many negative emotions?
Before he finished his thoughts, Jiang Qi's voice came into his ears.

"My lord, what's the matter with you?"

Yuan Tan came back to his senses and said with a smile, "It's nothing, let's continue."

As he spoke, he raised the short knife, cut the potatoes into small pieces, and threw them into the pit.

"You see, when cutting potatoes, pay attention to the size of the pieces..."

Yuan Tan continued to demonstrate while explaining.Behind him, there are generals such as Gao Lan, Zhang Xiu, and Jiang Qi.

Not far away, there are thousands of cavalry waiting eagerly.

At this moment, two familiar figures walked slowly from far to near.

They followed the crowd and looked at Yuan Tan quietly without saying a word.

After a while, one of them stared at the cut pieces in the pit, and couldn't help asking, "Uncle, what's the use of planting these things?"

Another person replied: "What's so hard to guess? It must be used as military rations!"

Hearing the two people's conversation, Yuan Tan's heart moved, and he turned to look at them. Seeing that it was Queen Guo and Xun Yu, he smiled and said, "Why are you here?"

Queen Guo snorted, and said dissatisfied: "Can't we come out? Or, you don't welcome us?"

After Yuan Tan captured the two men, he did not treat them as prisoners because of their special status.Therefore, the scope of activities of the two people is not restricted.

"Welcome, of course you are welcome!"

Yuan Tan smiled, turned to Jiang Qi and the others and said, "Okay, you've all seen it, the planting method is that simple. Immediately send an order to order the sergeants to plant potatoes in pairs."

"The last will obey!"

Jiang Qi and the others agreed in unison, and hurried towards the cavalry not far away.

After they left, Yuan Tan turned his head, his eyes fell on Xun Yu and Queen Guo, and he asked with a smile, "What advice do you two have?"

Xun Yu smiled slightly and said: "The Yuan family has ruled the five states in the world. Apart from millions of soldiers, they have everything from food, soldiers and horses, to equipment. However, Mr. Yuan, who is prepared for danger in times of peace, hoards food and grass here. His thoughtfulness is truly unparalleled in the world." .”

"There is indeed enough food and grass for marching and fighting." Yuan Tan changed the subject and said seriously: "There is far from enough food and grass for the people to live and work in peace and contentment."

Xun Yu was startled, and asked in surprise, "What... do you mean?"

Yuan Tan sighed, and said in a deep voice: "At present, the princes are fighting together, and wars are everywhere. Regardless of victory or defeat, as long as there is a war, the people will definitely be implicated, ranging from homelessness to family destruction. Such a Han Dynasty, What's the use?"

At this point, he paused, looked into the distance, and continued: "The vast hectares of fertile land I have planted are to turn Yanzhou, Jizhou, Youzhou, Bingzhou, Qingzhou and other places into places where people can live and work in peace and contentment. They have enough to eat, wear warm clothes, and no longer have to worry about their homes being destroyed, so they can live happily."

Hearing this, Xun Yu was stunned.

He never dreamed that the high-spirited young man in front of him could actually see the suffering in the world.

The key is that the other party is still taking practical actions to create a better life for the people.

Based on this alone, it is much better than Cao Cao and Yuan Shao who can only shout slogans.

After a long silence, he gave a deep bow and said solemnly, "Thank you, my lord!"

Yuan Tan was taken aback, and subconsciously asked, "What does Doctor Xun mean?"

Xun Yu sighed, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I... I'm tired, so I'll go back first."

After finishing speaking, he walked towards the distance.

He walked faster and faster, and in the blink of an eye, he was far away.

"Doctor Xun... Doctor Xun..."

Yuan Tan yelled several times. Seeing that the other party didn't stop, he couldn't help being a little surprised. His eyes fell on Queen Guo, and he asked with concern, "What's wrong with your uncle?"

Unexpectedly, Queen Guo blushed slightly and stared straight at Yuan Tan, as if she didn't hear his question.

Looking at the girl who looked like a wooden sculpture made of clay, Yuan Tan was speechless for a while.He coughed a few times, and asked again: "Miss Guo, you and your uncle... are you not acclimatized?"

After asking several times, Queen Guo came back to her senses and realized that she had lost her mind. She couldn't help but blushed and looked extremely embarrassed.

"No...it's nothing. My uncle and I are...both fine. We...we are very fine."

"That's good," Yuan Tan breathed a sigh of relief, and said sincerely, "If you are not acclimatized, you must tell me, and I will send you a medical officer."

Queen Guo lowered her head and said in a voice like a mosquito, "Thank you...I...I'm going back too."

As he said that, he turned around slowly, followed the direction Xun Yu left, and quickly chased after him.

Looking at the backs of the two, Yuan Tan showed a wry smile.He turned to Gao Lan and said in a low voice, "Jinyong, you send two soldiers to escort them back to the city."

"The last will obey!"

Gao Lan agreed, picked two sergeants, followed Xun Yu and Queen Guo, and sent them back to the mansion.
