[Comprehensive] Number of Merry

"Bohou, the son is calling."

Opening the curtain in front of the military tent, Guo Jia walked briskly into the tent, walked to Du Ji who was almost submerged in the files, and took the bamboo slips from his hand with a smile.

The bamboo slips he was reading were taken away, Du Ji sorted out the files on the case table, walked out with Guo Jia, and said with a smile: "Why did Feng Xiao personally come to notify?"

He is broad-minded, simple and arrogant by nature, and does not stick to trifles. Guo Jia gets money without saying hello, and directly takes away the bamboo slips in his hand. If Han Ji is replaced, he will definitely have to teach a few words, but Du Ji does not think it is strange, because he is such a person himself. .

"It's rare that the son of conscience finds out that I don't need to stay in the tent to read the copybook, I will come out to exercise my muscles and bones."

Guo Jia stretched his arms upwards vigorously, with a relaxed expression on his face.

Liu Biao likes Confucians who are dignified and dignified, and he despises people like Guo Jia and Du Ji.Wang Lang was different. She originally lived in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, an era when open-mindedness and openness were the fashion. Guo Jia and Du Ji's level of informality was considered a relatively respectful category, so naturally they didn't care.

Du Ji raised his eyebrows halfway: "I seem to have heard the resentment. Feng Xiao was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the young master as soon as he came, and he was able to enter the shogunate to look at the secrets. How many people are secretly envious behind him. What's the explanation for 'conscience discovered'?"

Although the words were harsh, it was a joking tone.

Guo Jia listened to the first half of the sentence and still felt emotional in his heart, with a smile on his face, but when he heard the last few words, his face completely collapsed:

"Young master has no doubts about employing people, and he is true to his heart, but this is too ruthless, and he will not give up until he squeezes out the last bit of human potential."

He thought that the "official documents" that Wang Lang said that day were real official documents, but he didn't expect that what was sent to his room that night was all kinds of news inquired by spies scattered in Yizhou. Impressed, I worked overtime to study the scrolls, and finished them in three days. From then on, I fully understood Wang Lang's principle of "making the best use of talents" and lamented every day. After Wang Lang heard it, he said " "Feng Xiao is very energetic", another pile of files was stuffed in, and there was no time to lament from then on.

Du Ji also heard about this incident, and couldn't help but have a gloating expression on his face, adding insult to injury:

"I think Feng Xiao is clearly enjoying it."

"Each each other."

Responding unyieldingly, Guo Jia stopped, and Wang Lang's Chinese army tent arrived.

As soon as you enter the tent, the first thing you see is a red Sichuan brocade with cloud and bat pattern hanging on the screen. The extremely bright red and floating mercerous light firmly catch people's attention, and it is an expensive treasure at first glance.Wang Lang was originally holding a more complicated Shu brocade with the pattern of a flying phoenix and a dragon. Person: "This is the Shu brocade that is as precious as every inch of brocade."

Du Ji knew that she lived a simple life on weekdays, and actually handled countless beautiful pearls and jade, and piled up a lot in the storeroom.So I don't worry that she will be fascinated by the rare objects. After thinking about it, I said:

"The price of this product is higher than gold and silver, but it is much lighter than gold and silver. My son was worried that gold and silver are heavy and occupy a lot of land, and transportation is inconvenient. With this Shu brocade, it is much more convenient."

Wang Lang admired his foresight and sensitivity very much, nodded and said:

"What Bohou said is true. The most important thing for grain and grain is not to be ignored. Shu brocade is loved by the nobles. It is sold in the Central Plains and Jianghuai, which is enough to support the army. The land of Shu is suitable for mulberry and silkworms. The people of Shu are good at weaving brocade. Bo Hou should make good use of it."

The rulers of all dynasties in China paid great attention to agricultural production, but had inherent discrimination against handicrafts and commerce, believing that these would consume food and occupy a large amount of labor, and would have no real effect on the enhancement of national strength.But Zhuge Liang, who manages Yizhou, doesn't think so.

Zhuge Liang discovered the huge economic value contained in Shu brocade by virtue of his unique keen eyesight. In the early years of Jianxing, he ordered to emphasize that "the people are poor and the country is empty, and the capital to defeat the enemy depends on brocade ears", and the brocade was elevated to the national strategic material. the height of.After Zhuge Liang's vigorous advocacy and management, Shu brocade was not only sold in Wei and Wu countries, but even exported to Southeast Asia and West Asia countries through southeast waterways and land routes. Cao Cao also sent people to buy brocade in Shu, which shows that Shu brocade is from Wei and Wu. A favorite bestseller, it is also an important source of fiscal revenue for the Shu Han regime.

In history, Zhuge Liang took only two years to keep Shuzhong in order. There are many almost genius design ideas, which show his strategic vision as a super-class strategist during the Three Kingdoms period, which is beyond the reach of others.

If Zhuge Liang was only 12 years old this year, Wang Lang really wanted to take Zhuge Liang with him.

Fortunately, there are Zhuge Liang's brainless fans everywhere in Shuzhong. The records of various policies and policies formulated by Zhuge Liang when he governed Shu are very complete. Wang Lang had studied it carefully after he captured Shuzhong.

Or go back and give Zhuge Liang a credit?

Thoughts diverged for a while, Wang Lang came back to his senses, and talked about the business:

"Go to Mount Qingcheng today, the two of you will come with me."

Du Ji was still thinking about the Shu brocade, and agreed a little casually.

Zhuge Liang's strategic vision really surpassed the times. Du Ji, who was deeply influenced by the idea of ​​agriculture-oriented, calculated silently in his heart, and was somewhat skeptical.However, cultivating the land requires strength, weaving brocade requires skill, and the division of labor between men and women does not delay.After a while of calculation, Du Xi gradually came up with a rough strategy, which he only needs to revise and refine after further understanding of the local conditions.

Guo Jia was thinking about things on another level.

According to legend, during the period of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Ling once learned Taoism in Heming Mountain, Sichuan, and made talisman scripts to confuse the people. The Wudoumi Taoism now entrenched in Hanzhong claims that Lu is his grandson.Qingcheng Mountain is the place where Zhang Ling preached in his later years, and has a high status in the minds of Wudoumi Taoists.

Two days ago, it rained and the sky was clear and the moon was dark. Some people saw bright spots near the mountainside of Qingcheng Mountain, flickering and floating. The local Shu people said that they were lanterns lit by the gods of Qingcheng Mountain to celebrate Zhang Ling, called holy lamps.Because there are many people who have seen it with their own eyes, and the people of Shu speak convincingly, there are many soldiers talking about it in the army, and even the generals are affected.

Guo Jia doesn't care about whether the holy lamp is not holy, but how to deal with the five buckets of rice that has been preached for three generations in Shu is a question that needs to be carefully considered.

After thinking about it, he chose a more suitable entry point: "My lord, do you want to go to Mount Qingcheng to watch the lanterns?"

Everyone believes in ghosts and gods these days.Hearing Guo Jia mention the holy lamp, Du Ji was also attracted.

Only Wang Lang said unconcernedly: "That thing can only be seen after the rain, yesterday and today are sunny, so you can't see it." After a pause, he said, "Human blood is phosphorus, and I have ordered people to collect ancient battlefields. The wheat seedlings and rice ears on the ground, after two days, light some bonfires outside the camp to heat the air, and the blue phosphorus fire will be produced on the ends of the wheat seedlings and rice ears. If you want to see it, you can watch it at that time. If there are not many people around In other words, as long as you talk or walk, the phosphorus fire will chase you and float, it will be slow if you are slow, and it will be fast if you are fast, which is very interesting."

Guo Jia and Du Ji heard that the fire can only appear under the conditions of heat and phosphorus. Although they don't know much about chemistry, it doesn't prevent them from understanding that this is a natural phenomenon and has nothing to do with gods and ghosts.

However, imagining the situation of being closely pursued by the flames and following wherever they go, both of them felt a little nervous.

Du Ji bit the bullet and said: "Did you deliberately set up the phosphorus fire in the camp to tell the soldiers that this phosphorus fire can be controlled and there is no need to be afraid?"

Wang Lang nodded his head as a matter of course: "There is a strong witchcraft in Shu. If my soldiers are deceived by these tricks, it will really embarrass me. In the future, Bohou and Fengxiao will also end, so I advise the soldiers not to be afraid."

"The young master went to Mount Qingcheng...?"

"Oh, because it has been too hard to conquer the middle of Sichuan in the past two months, I decided to combine work and rest, and find something to relax for everyone. Today, I will give you a mountain-climbing vacation and spend the public money to visit Qingcheng Mountain for a day. How about it? It's very good, right? .”

Not a bad ghost.

Both of them were complaining silently in their hearts, but they didn't dare to spoil her interest, they only asked Wang Lang to bring his personal guards to guard against assassins.

The process of attacking Yizhou was very smooth. Wang Lang’s progress along the way can be described as a long drive. The only battle took place in Mianzhu, the state government. However, Liu Yan was not in good health. I heard that Jingzhou soldiers sent troops to Shu In the middle of the war, Liu Yan entered the hinterland within one month, and Liu Yan, who was already old, was anxious and frightened, and died of gangrene a year earlier than in history.When Cai Mao, who marched by water, arrived in Mianzhu, Wang Lang had already arranged everything and began to organize the autumn harvest for the people of Mianzhu.

Great merit cannot but be rewarded.

Compared with Cai Mao, a prominent family in Xiangyang, Liu Biao obviously trusts his eldest daughter who has always been loved by him psychologically. Moreover, the miraculous achievement of conquering Yizhou within two months is mainly made by his daughter. .Wang Lang resolutely refused, and refused to agree to anything, and finally Liu Biao served as Yizhou Shepherd.

However, Liu Biao disliked that the road to Shu was difficult, and Yizhou was blocked, so he had no plans to enter Shu, so he stayed in Xiangyang to lead Yizhou pasture, and all the handling of county affairs was delegated to Wang Lang.Wang Lang moved Yizhou's prefecture from Mianzhu to Chengdu, known as Jinguan City, and re-planned Yizhou.

Pretending not to notice the slander of the two, Wang Lang ordered fifty guards and took Guo Jia and Du Ji to Qingcheng Mountain outside Chengdu.
