Mountains and seas can be flat

As expected, the king of Yu Yi came here in a hurry.Although he tried to pretend to be calm on the surface, Fang Zheng could understand the impulse deep in his eyes that he wanted to scratch himself.

"Fang Zheng, let's discuss your 'economic control laws'."

Even the "Chinese leader" is not respected, and he calls him by his first name and surname. The subtext can't wait to point his nose and scold "Fang Zheng, what do you mean?" However, Fang Zheng believes that Yu Yi's old fox is also an exaggerated effect. It has not been officially implemented, and the Yuyi people have not yet felt the impact, and will not put pressure on the monarch.But Fang Zheng also understood that this old fox was not worrying for nothing.Anyone who has a sense of leadership and sees the list full of daily necessities will turn his eyes black and want to die in place.

The elders were asked to write this document in the language of the Yu Dynasty. Although the common people could not understand it, the decree would be engraved on stone tablets and prepared to be placed in the "center of the square" by Qinglongling Lake, where the drummers would recite loudly throughout the day. The content, even the illiterate people, will know the content.By that time, the situation will be irreversible.

"I have no other choice." Fang Zheng sighed, pretending to be very embarrassed, "The reserves are not enough for exchange."

King Yu Yi suppressed his voice, "How could it be?"

Behind the rattling of the old fox's teeth, he cursed Fang Zheng secretly in his heart, "Stop pretending" "Why was it enough before?" "After you Fang Zheng came back, suddenly it wasn't enough?"

King Yu Yi wanted to take a step closer, but two servants flashed by. Fang Zheng waved them away, looked at King Yu Yi with insightful eyes, and said, "It's true."

King Yu Yi stared at Fang Zheng, he restrained his quarrelsome face, and asked in a low voice: "What conditions do you have?"

This sounded like a wise man said, but for Fang Zheng, the bargaining chip was not enough, so he avoided answering: "Actually, I have always been curious, Monarch, the capital of Raowo has towering walls, rich fields, and a lot of weapons , Food. Just how many weapons can be produced by the nine huge copper furnaces in your capital city. In this precarious moment, if you don’t return to Raowo to take charge of the overall situation, why do you have to wrong yourself to nest in the small territory of the Chinese people? "

King Yu Yi said: "It turns out that the leader of the Chinese tribe is driving me away."

Fang Zhengdao: "No, I hope that our cooperation can reach a higher level in the future. Yu Yi needs you, and you can only go back, and many things can be advanced."

Yuyi has a large population and vast land, and Fang Zheng can't eat it for the time being.What's more, he has to deal with the recovery of Badian after it was flooded.The Chinese population is only 5000.Furthermore, if Yu Yi's sturdy martial arts style is taken forcibly, there will definitely be many abuses.Therefore, as an expedient measure, he wants to establish a temporary alliance with King Yu Yi.In that way, Qinglongling can exchange more scarce materials with Yu Yi.Of course, this depends on whether King Yu Yi can be persuaded to cooperate.

Lord Yu Yi sneered: "So the leader of the Chinese tribe is teaching me how to be a leader?"

Fang Zheng smiled but said, "Don't dare. I believe that the king has his own opinions on how to be a good king. However, if the king is willing to listen, I believe it will be good for us."

King Yu Yi suppressed his anger, and pulled out a perfect smirk: "Leader of the Chinese clan, please tell me." If the face of this old fox is placed in later generations, it looks like a magnanimous monarch asking for advice from an expert, which is almost fake.

Although Fang Zheng didn't fully trust King Yu Yi, but being on the same boat for the time being, if he could spread more ideas, it would be beneficial and harmless.So Fang Zheng's words are telling the truth, "I think that the most important task of a leader is to allow the people to obtain stable and safe food. This is what is necessary to maintain survival-so to be a leader, you must let the people People learn reasonable fishing, hunting and gathering, farming and animal husbandry skills.”

Lord Yu Yi raised his eyebrows: "What you said are skills that ordinary people should know. All the great leaders I know have excellent military talents. Only leaders who resist powerful enemies and expand territories are worthy Sit in that position."

Fang Zheng already knew the deeds of the three ancient sages in this time and space, and most of them can be matched, but the names sometimes change.He asked, "Does the monarch know about Suiren?"

Lord Yu Yi raised his eyebrows: "Is it the Suiren King who drilled wood to make fire? Of course he knows. What do you want to say?"

Fang Zheng nodded and said: "'Drill a fire to make fire, to eliminate the smell, and the people say it, make the world king', it is because of the invention of fire that the Suiren clan ended the era of eating raw meat and improved the diet of the people, so that they won everyone's favor. It is not purely relying on force.”

King Yu Yi said: "I have heard of it. But with fire, the fighting ability of their people will naturally be enhanced. They will be able to defend their homeland better. Only then can the Suiren clan successfully establish a political power."

Fang Zheng said again: "So what about Shennong? He tasted the herbs, checked the sourness and bitterness, and taught people to eat the five grains. He brought the earliest knowledge of medicine, medicine, and food to the people through his own personal experience, and he was praised. Nor is it his martial arts."

In ancient mythology, Shennong was sometimes identified as Emperor Yan.Lord Yu Yi said: "Enlighten hundreds of herbs? You mean Yan Lianshi? He did die from tasting herbal poisons, but since he has mastered the characteristics of these medicine stones, he can create poisons and kill the invading enemies. Isn't it him? military talent?"

Fang Zheng really felt helpless that the king of Yuyi had to look at everything from a belligerent perspective, but the king of Yuyi became more and more enthusiastic, and said: "Fang Zheng, who do you think is the greatest leader? Before the three generations of ancient times, after Fuxi and Nuwa, then It is Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor. He conquered all over the world, merged the major tribes, and put down Chi You’s rebellion. He made great achievements in battle. He also has a dragon——Yinglong. Could it be that he raised it for viewing?”

"That's true," Fang Zheng retorted, "but he sows all kinds of grains, raises vegetation, transforms birds and beasts, collects the sun, moon and stars, and teaches how to use mountains, rivers and lakes. It is Xuanyuan Huangdi who puts practical production and life skills into practice. Only by passing it on to everyone can the tribe stand out from the early days...ahem, and stand out from many tribes."

King Yu Yi was thoughtful, he paced, and said again: "Fang Zheng, what you said sounds reasonable, but it's useless. After all these years, if I know a certain truth that no one will ever teach , that is, if there is no war, there will be no food. Yu Yi has to fight the small tribes around him every year. It is never enough to grow, hunt and gather by himself. You ask me why I don’t go back to Raowo. Because..." He was about to say something Stop, sigh and look at Fang Zheng.That is actually a rare kind of sincere appearance, worrying about this matter.

Hearing the preoccupied footsteps of King Yu Yi, Fang Zheng said coldly and bluntly: "Because you don't know how to make good use of the land. Now you are greedy for the land of Qinglongling, and you don't want to turn against me immediately, for fear of being retaliated. Before I was Lian Zifeng got away, you thought I couldn't come back, so you took the opportunity to move the people who lost their homes here. You want to infiltrate slowly. I didn't expect me to come back so soon. It disrupted your plan. However, you are You're a smart man, you didn't immediately send troops to capture Qinglongling when I was away."

King Yu Yi didn't deny Fang Zheng's words, he had already pulled off his smirk, and his lips were pursed into a thin line, "I'm not as stupid as Badian. The monster in your lake is still there, and who knows where the two dragons are?" Will the sky suddenly... But I won't hide it from you. Qinglongling, we valued it very much from a long time ago."

"God's giant hand that split [-] mountains." Fang Zheng's eyes flashed a flash of hatred, "I will never forget the incident of waking up the three Miao NPC Qinglong and killing people and burying them."

"Fang Zheng," Lord Yu Yi paced back and forth, looking back frequently, "You are a smart man, there is no need to continue the hatred in the past. People will grow old. Are Zu Jiang and Badian not enough for the Chinese? If you put Let Qinglongling come out, and I will share with you the secret of transferring souls to young bodies."

Fang Zheng suppressed the nausea and wanted to tell him to get out, and said coldly: "Thank you, I am very young. There is no need to transfer my soul to a young body. I will discuss it with you in a good voice. How dare you beat me so shamelessly The idea of ​​Qinglongling. I will give you three days. In three days, take the Yuyi people to leave here and go back to Raowo. I will send people to exchange things. As long as we cooperate well, we can fight against Xiazhu together. If you insist Forcing me, I had no choice but to let the golden dragon fly out of Jianmu and eat Rao Wo. What do you think?"

King Yu Yi asked in horror: "Golden dragon? Are you building wood?" He hurriedly added, "Our covenant still counts? Will the two golden dragons still patrol the border?"

Fang Zheng thought for a moment, then said coldly: "I'm not like you. What I said counts. They are guarding in Jianmu now. The Xiazhu people wanted to sneak in from the other side of Jianmu forest, but they failed "Fang Zheng's words are not a lie. If Xia Zhu's dragon-slaying team crosses the Jianmu forest and comes to Yuyi territory, it will definitely be another factor that causes violent social unrest. It may not be more serious than Lian Zifeng Less destructive.

King Yu Yi didn't respond immediately, but just bowed his head in thought, Fang Zheng ignored him and went on with the work on the desk.He taught the people in the management department the simple "number report" method. Every day, there are many "documents" carved on the white bark, and Fang Zheng should be asked to judge.In addition to signing his name on it, Fang Zheng also found jade and carved a seal with an obsidian sword, which can leave mud marks on the white bark.The inkpad of later generations is mainly composed of cinnabar.Fang Zheng did not find cinnabar ore in Qinglongling, so he adjusted dark blue ore powder.The shape of the seal is a blooming double-petalled peony and a coiled double-headed dragon.Fang Zheng's own painting skills are mediocre, but there were talents who were good at carving and painting in the Zujiang White Pagoda.In the center of the pattern is a small "Zheng" character carved by Fang Zheng himself in the simplified characters of later generations. In this era, almost no one can imitate it.

King Yu Yi finally said solemnly: "Do you really think that as long as you teach them the ability to produce well, you can become strong and not be bullied by foreigners? Is this your way of kingship? If there are foreign enemies invading, what will you fight for? If there is not enough food, where will you find it?"

Fang Zhengdao: "I admit what you said, the military ability to resist the invasion of other tribes and conquer other tribes is necessary. But in the final analysis, why do you Yuyi have insufficient resources? You spent 3000 people to become a fighter in Yuqiang camp, tens of thousands People go to mine quarry to refine a weapon. How can your population be enough to cultivate, gather and hunt? Don’t you have to loot foreigners every year? It is everyone’s responsibility to defend their homeland, but a great leader like Xuanyuan Huangdi does not rely on sacrifice And drive his people to win the war. The so-called king, who enjoys the fat of the people, should also sacrifice his flesh and blood, sacrifice his spirit, and master a powerful deterrent force. The army cannot be without, but it cannot waste the labor of the people. What's more, if the people can If you are full of food and drink, you will naturally be able to devote your energy to guarding your home—”

Lord Yu Yi heard an unfamiliar word: "What is 'common people'?"

Fang Zheng accidentally said that there is no systematic "hundreds of surnames" in this era. He wanted to blur the past, combined with some vague information floating in his mind: "It is the ethnic group, this is the language of our side ...In short, there is one more thing I want to talk to you about today. There are seventeen armies within your four borders. The army accounts for a quarter of the population, and the ore mining labor accounts for another quarter. You still have a special formation of the Yuqiang camp in Shoutong Mountain. If you don’t change the population structure, and don’t let half of the soldiers and laborers go back to gather, hunt and farm, you will collapse. How many people were there when the Yu Dynasty split? How many people are left today? ? You weigh it yourself."

In the three generations of Yao, Shun and Yu, the number of people in the unified Yu Dynasty at its peak, plus the border countries, once reached 50. When it first split, the population of Yu and Yi was about 25. In the past 60 years, the population has been reduced to 10, and the surplus power belonging to the once great country is gradually being exhausted. King Yuyi certainly knows it. .

The king of Yu Yi had a complicated look on his face, he hesitated to speak.Fang Zheng finished all the "White Bark Documents" unhurriedly, and said, "Three days. If you don't leave. After three days, our Chinese 'God Envoy' will start to clean up the 'Evil Seeds'." .”

King Yu Yi gritted his teeth, and finally laughed out loud. He caught a glimpse of Lian Zifeng flashing past behind the barrier of Fang Zheng's office, and immediately provocatively viciously said: "Okay, okay!" .Let’s go. In the end, the envoy is just a tool in your hands! Chinese leader, I will write down everything you said!"

Fang Zheng's house is more like a semi-open public meeting hall during the day, with many guards inside and outside the house.Fang Zheng's living room is separated by half a barrier of his own wooden carvings, like a screen for later generations.There is a small room next to Fang Zheng's living room, where Lian Zifeng slept last night, and it was also covered by the screen.But the guards standing guard for Fang Zheng knew that Lian Zifeng lived next to Fang Zheng's room last night.

Lian Zifeng slipped out early in the morning, presumably to stretch his power that he had nowhere to use.He just came back, and instead of going through the main entrance, he jumped in from the rear window of Fang Zheng's house.When Lian Zifeng entered and exited Fang Zheng's house in the past two days, the guards were still debating whether to stop him symbolically, but whether it was Zifeng's cold eyes and legendary terrifying skills, or Fang Zheng's instructions from afar: " They can only turn a blind eye to the words of trust that no one should hinder the envoy of the gods, even though they actually complain about this evil star who suddenly jumped to the rank of "envoy of the gods".

The guards were about to "invite" King Yu Yi out of the plain house very "politely".Fang Zheng entrusted the processed bark to the "administrative staff".Fang Zheng stood by the door and watched the King of Yu Yi, and stood coldly with arms folded.He didn't say a word about the provocation of King Yu Yi.The spirit cat jumped in from the window, wrapped its big soft tail around Fang Zheng's neck, covered his protruding veins, and stretched out his paws to caress his faintly throbbing brow.Help Fang Zheng suppress his anger and don't explode on the spot.

"Get out!" A furious voice came from behind the screen, and a piece of stone was smashed out and chased at the feet of King Yu Yi, carving a deep dent on the dirt road at the door, and instantly turned into powder.The temperature in the whole room suddenly seemed to drop eight degrees.Fierce murderous aura rushed out.Lord Yu Yi looked at the stone powder that was broken at his feet, and even if he was prepared, he subconsciously shivered.Across half the room and a wooden screen, he could only see Lian Zifeng's tall figure standing sideways and half of his longbow hidden.Lord Yu Yi snorted coldly, making sure that the distance was far enough, and said loudly: "Fang Zheng, you gave me a bunch of suggestions for peaceful development, but you own a killing machine!"

"Worry too much." Fang Zheng smiled, "The envoy will not take it lightly, after all, I love peace so much."

King Yu Yi raised his eyebrows, chewed Fang Zheng's words, turned his deep eyes, snorted and snorted contemptuously, and left bitterly.

As soon as King Yu Yi's robe disappeared at the end of the dirt road in the distance, Fang Zheng's smirk immediately collapsed.He held the spirit in his arms and stroked vigorously, sighed heavily, his brows wrinkled into the word Chuan.

Familiar footsteps came from behind.Zifeng turned around the wooden barrier and approached Fang Zheng.

Fang Zheng didn't turn his head back, but when he heard the attendants around him hesitate to intercept the movement, he waved and said, "You all step back."

The guards went to the door to guard, only Zifeng and Fang Zheng were left.Zifeng reached out and wanted to hug Fang Zheng's waist from behind, Fang Zheng turned sideways to avoid it, turned around and leaned against the wall, rubbing the center of his brows, a little tired: "Don't touch me."

Zifeng didn't touch Fang Zheng's clothes, and lightly leaned against the wall next to his shoulder, making a loose embrace gesture, as if covering Fang Zheng under his arms. Fang Zheng didn't avoid this ambiguous gesture. The distance, just shrank his body, and warned Zifeng not to get closer with body language.

Zifeng knew that Fang Zheng wanted to kill King Yu Yi, but he couldn't, and of course he couldn't do it quietly.Fang Zheng kept that old thing useful.Zifeng asked in a low voice: "Brother Zheng, don't trust that old guy. He won't choose a peaceful way of production. The root of this old guy is war and plunder."

"Actually, I understand." A sharp light flashed in Fang Zheng's eyes.

"Then why did brother Zheng tell him so much?" Zifeng was puzzled.

Fang Zheng smiled sarcastically: "Of course it is to paralyze him, brainwash him, and coax him to relax his vigilance. Yu Yi is hard to get back, and he is supported by military strength. If he is really limped by the fool, start to adjust the production structure. It's suicidal."

Zifeng suddenly realized, looked at Fang Zheng with admiration and emotion, and murmured: "I almost believed it just now, what brother Zheng said about peace is so beautiful..."

Fang Zheng was too lazy to pretend in front of Zifeng, and said without hesitation: "Peace is also true, but a certain great leader said that if you seek peace through struggle, you will live peacefully, and if you seek peace through compromise, you will die peacefully."

"Who?" Zi Feng was stunned.

Fang Zheng slipped his tongue again, that was the words of the mao//master//his old man, he waved his hand and said: "It's nothing, anyway, don't worry. I will never let down my vigilance. Although King Yu Yi is cruel, but he left before The road to armaments is necessary for Yu Yi. If anyone compromises and retreats in the war or is lucky, all that awaits them is death."

Zifeng nodded. He quietly looked at Fang Zheng, who was close at hand, and said, "Brother Zheng, the power of Yu Yi's entire country is in armaments. The road they took. I can walk alone. I can Go kill 'em. That old thing was right, you use me like a tool—"

Fang Zheng stretched out his hand to cover Zifeng's lips, and his palm felt warm.Zifeng was stunned, this was the first time Fang Zheng met him in many days, but he hadn't felt the softness of that palm, Fang Zheng had already moved away, turned his head and said indifferently: "Be yours" Messenger, I'll take care of other things."

"Brother Zheng." Zifeng smiled, "Are you still worried about me? I remember very clearly what you said on Jianmu. Didn't you plan to use my power to seize the world? It doesn't matter, I am willing will come with you."

Fang Zheng looked deep, and said honestly: "...I can't deny it, I need your strength."

"Then don't make me an envoy of God," Zifeng said flatly, "It's annoying to hear them cry about those messy things every day, what kind of legion commander do you want me to be—"

"No, you have to stay there." Fang Zheng resolutely refused: "Because soldiers and punishments come from the same source."

The so-called "Great punishments use armored soldiers, followed by axes and axes, middle punishments use knives and saws, secondly drills and reeds, and light punishments use whips to prestige the people."War is originally a kind of criminal law, and both are punishments for people.

"What?" Zifeng didn't understand.

Fang Zhengdao: "If I launch a war in the future, the legitimacy is to 'punish on behalf of the sky'. Don't think that wielding a sword is useless. The purpose of punishment and war is the same, and they are both to maintain order. In Emperor Yao Yu's In the [-]s, Gao Tao was the criminal officer. Later, he followed Boyi Jun to establish Yu Yi and served as the biggest commander of the army. You used to be the "big commander" in Yu Yi, and he was also in charge of the army to suppress the rebellion. It makes sense Same, understand?"

Zifeng was thoughtful: "I seem to understand a little bit. Brother Zheng, why do you know so much?"

The doubt that has always been lingering in Zifeng's mind: Where did Fang Zheng come from?What kind of place can I teach brother Zheng these things that can stand at the height of a leader?

"Don't ask," Fang Zheng waved his hand wearily, "Let's go. I'm going to check on Tian Mo to check whether they have followed the 'meeting spirit' communicated and implemented that day, and whether everyone has started raising livestock."

Fang Zheng is busy every day.He glanced at Zifeng's arms blocking both sides, motioning for him to move away.Zifeng didn't move.Fang Zheng glared, trying to get out from under his arm.Zifeng didn't dare to stop him, he hurriedly asked the last question, "Then I did a good job, will I be rewarded?" He looked like a young man asking for warmth, looking at Fang Zheng with big eyes.

Fang Zheng raised his hand as if he wanted to hit Zifeng's head a few times, or to touch his hair. He was hanging in the air, his eyes were deep and flowing, and finally flicked Zifeng with his index finger. His forehead was like treating a coquettish kitten. After a long sigh that was too soft for Fang Zheng, Fang Zheng pushed Zifeng's arm and walked out, and soon he was out of sight.

Fang Zheng has gradually seen the path of this era in his heart.The basic survival and development of the people in ancient times suffered from the loss of natural disasters, the attack of raptors and beasts, the limitation of labor skills, and the invasion of other ethnic groups.Ethnic groups are closely connected by blood and community, and eating enough is the goal of living.

Fang Zheng sighed inwardly. To become a leader in this era, one must teach them not only the production and life skills of farming, animal husbandry, fishing and hunting, but also the military talent of defending and expanding the territory. , the so-called sacrificial power to communicate with heaven and earth, ghosts and gods, and ancestors.Lian Zifeng said that "Shao Wu" was King Xia Zhu's weapon, and Fang Zheng finally understood its true meaning.

The most difficult part of the card is finally finished, so I hurried to take care of my hair.
