Hearing this, Lu Bu couldn't help but look at his wife with admiration.

Nine years of Yanxi?

Lu Bu calculated in his heart that the emperor of the Han Dynasty at that time was still Emperor Huan of the Han Dynasty Liu Zhi.

After talking about Anxi, Hou Xiaoliu drew a large circle on the left side of Anxi. This circle was much larger than the Guishuang Empire, second only to the Han Dynasty.

Between this great circle and Anxi, Hou Xiaoliu drew another vertical line, and this is the only vertical line so far.

He explained to Lu Bu: "This is the Great Qin Kingdom, but to get here, you can't go directly by land, you can only go there by boat."

That vertical line represents the wide sea.

After explaining the Great Qin Kingdom, Hou Xiaoliu finally stopped his movements.

He looked at Lu Bu flatteringly, waiting for the master to send the reward.

Looking at those crooked circles, Lu Bu fell into deep thought.

How many unknown territories are there in this world?

Great Han Dynasty,

Could it be just a drop in this vast world?

…………

Note: Anxi, Han Dynasty, Rome, and Guishuang Empire were listed as the four major powers in Asia and Europe at that time.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"My lord, my lord..."

Hou Xiaoliu's soft cry brought Lu Bula back to reality.

"Are you all right?"

Seeing Lu Bu regain his composure, Hou Xiaoliu asked subconsciously.

There was a smile on Lu Bu's face, he suddenly had a bold plan in his mind, he threw the bulging money bag in his hand to Hou Xiaoliu, and said very generously: "You are rewarded!"

Hou Xiaoliu originally thought that Lu Bu would only give a part of it to reward him, but he never expected that Lu Bu threw the whole money bag over.

The money in this bag is enough for him to eat and drink for half a year.

"Thank you, master, thank you, master! God will bless you and your wife for a long life! Long life!" Hou Xiaoliu thanked him very excitedly. This was the most generous tip he had received since entering the industry.

"Xiao Liu, you are really talented!" Lu Bu said to him with a smile.

"Master, don't flatter me. I'm so young, I'm just an ordinary person who doesn't even know how to read." Hou Xiaoliu waved his hand very self-aware.

Afterwards, Hou Xiaoliu took Lu Bu to continue wandering around Hushi.

However, at this moment, Lu Bu was obviously not interested in these foreign products. Instead, he was quite interested in Hou Xiaoliu, who led the way, and asked with a smile, "Xiao Liu, do you have a dream?"

Hou Xiaoliu shook his head.

Right now, the world is in chaos, rituals and music are in ruins, and wars are constantly raging across the Central Plains. Although Bingzhou has been a little better in the past few years, no one can guarantee that the flames of war will not spread.

Isn't it nonsense to talk about dreams with ordinary people?

It is the ideal of the people to get through this troubled world safely.

"Don't you want to experience the cultural customs of Guishuang, Anxi and other countries for yourself?" Lu Bu carefully noticed that when Hou Xiaoliu was explaining these places just now, his eyes were full of longing.

Therefore, he only asked this question.

"I would like to, but I have no money! Who knows how much it will cost for such a long journey! Besides, what will my old lady do if I leave? Who will take care of my mother-in-law and baby?"

Maybe it's because the old man in front of him is approachable, not as superior and contemptuous as those rich old men in the past, but Hou Xiaoliu is also sincere.When he was a child, he heard the story of Zhang Qian's trip to the Western Regions, so he also hoped to become a hero like Zhang Qian.

However, dreams are beautiful, and only when you grow up do you realize that real life can teach you how to be a man in minutes.

Later, when he heard that Linrong had opened a Hushi market, Hou Xiaoliu seized the opportunity and came to act as a guide, not to mention rich and powerful, at least he could get enough food and clothing for the whole family.

Dealing with businessmen from various countries and listening to them talk about the customs of their respective countries, Hou Xiaoliu not only broadened his horizons, but also indirectly fulfilled a childhood wish.

Seeing that Hou Xiaoliu really had this idea, Lu Bu struck while the iron was hot: "Xiaoliu, I will pay you as much as you want. As for your mother, wife and children, I will also take care of them, and I promise to send your children to school. , allow him to be an official."

When Lu Bu said this, he didn't hesitate at all. For him, these things were just a piece of cake.

However, this shocked Hou Xiaoliu.

If it were someone else, Hou Xiaoliu would definitely think he was bragging.However, the person in front of him is not only generous, but also has a calm and generous demeanor, just like a towering mountain, which makes people feel a little bit at ease.

"Master, who are you?"

Hou Xiaoliu lowered his posture and asked anxiously.

A person who can casually name Xu Yi's official position, let alone him, even the county magistrate, has no such ability.

Lu Bu did not give a clear answer, but told Hou Xiaoliu: "If you agree, come to see me at the posthouse in the east of the city tomorrow. Then, you will know my identity."

…………

As the sun set on the hillside, Hou Xiaoliu returned to the village with mixed feelings.

There are hundreds of households in this village who make their living from farming.Although it is not considered rich, the food cultivated is enough to feed a family.

Hou Xiaoliu didn't want to be a farmer with his face on the loess and his back to the sky all his life, so he was often made a joke by the men in the village. What's wrong with farming for self-sufficiency?

"Six, you're back."

The old mother who was over fifty years old was sitting at the door in front of the house, and three children who were squatting on the ground and playing ran over one after another, and Daddy, Daddy yelled.

Hou Xiaoliu yelled 'Mother', then knelt down and hugged the three children in his arms.

In the evening, the night is dead.

The three children had already fallen asleep, so Hou Xiaoliu called his wife and old lady, and put the full money bag on the wooden table with candles.

The wife's eyes were staring straight, with a greedy gleam.

There are high-quality new coins in this purse. If you save some money, even if you don't plow the land, it will be enough for the whole family to eat for a year or two.

She is a peasant woman, she has never seen so much money, and she doesn't care about the source of the money, she just praises her husband's ability.

On the contrary, the old lady seemed a little angry: "Six, tell me honestly, did you steal this money? My mother taught you from a young age to be honest and kind..."
