Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2260 Do not follow the rules and speak unreasonably

"Little Ice River..."

Fei Qian flipped through the documents, frowned, and muttered.

Judging from these materials, things that were lacking in records in history are now gradually revealed.

Yinshan is the northernmost climate observation station established by Feiqian.

Every year, soldiers will go north to observe the time when the winter snow line comes, record the number of blizzards, etc., but because these soldiers are not very clear about what they are doing, they often include some daily records Among other things, this leads to the large number, complexity and triviality of these records.

If these bamboo slips and wooden tablets were accidentally lost under the ice layer and wrapped in frozen soil, it might cause some turbulent waves when they are discovered in later generations?

So, is it possible to bury some stone pillars and metal pillars somewhere, and then mark this place as the territory of China since ancient times?Although it may not be useful, but when you take it out, it can stop some squeaky mouths?
Well, let's wait until we have time to do this.

What he had to face now was still Little Binghe.

This year's temperature seems to be normal, a little dry, a little hot, but it seems to be within the acceptable range, but Fei Qian always feels that this is not normal, like a little glacier about to beat someone , always stretching out the fist, of course there is no strength, now retracted, and when the next punch comes out...

It must be more painful than before, than now.

In the face of such a large-scale climate problem, it is inevitable that a sense of insignificance will sprout from my heart.

"Come on!Go and invite Mancheng! ’ Fei Qian pushed the records and materials to the side, and then ordered, ‘Also, prepare some tea! 』

Undoubtedly, if the Little Ice River strikes, Yinshan must be... well, and Zhao Yun's side is also the first area to be attacked by the climate...

So you have to be prepared in advance, the more prepared, the better.

Li Dian soon came, bowing his hands in salute.

"The reserves of Yinshan City still need to be strengthened..." Fei Qian pointed to the guards to serve tea, and said straight to the point, "Come on, Mancheng, let's see..."

Fei Qian pushed several records over and motioned Li Dian to check them out.

Among those records, some words were specially circled by Fiqian with a red pen.

"Two years, mid-November.Seeing Xiaoxue for the first time.Stop for three days.The snow was ankle deep. 』

"Three years.In early November, heavy snow.It lasted for more than ten days, and men and horses could not move. 』

"Four years.In October, there was a sudden blizzard, and the breath turned into ice, and most of the Hu people froze to death in the wild...』

Li Dian finished reading, then raised his head, "My lord, is there a severe cold this year?" 』

"No need. Fei Qian replied, "Of course you must be prepared."The number of war horses in Yinshan is the highest among all states, and the daily consumption of food and grass is also astonishing.Fortunately, the pastures here are plentiful, so there is no danger.If the weather is severe cold, the grass is yellow and dry, and the road is blocked by heavy snow, it is difficult to transfer...』

Li Dian's hands trembled a little, probably because he imagined the scene Fei Qian described, "My lord's words are true!"A certain must ensure that the reserves are sufficient and the warehouse is not empty! 』

"If according to a certain intention..." Fei Qian said in a deep voice, "the number of warehouses is doubled!" 』

"what? 』Li Dian thought that the original number of warehouses was enough, but he didn't expect Fei Qian to double it.

"If the weather is normal within three to five years, it's just a matter of spending some effort and wood..." Fei Qian said slowly, "If the weather changes, these will be the foundation of life..."

"But..." Li Dian was a little embarrassed.

It's not that Li Dian intends to shirk, nor is it unwilling to implement it, or he doesn't believe that the severe cold that Fei Qian said is approaching, it's just that there are not many trees in the Yinshan Mountains, and even fewer trees suitable for storage.After all, warehouses are different from ordinary buildings, and have higher requirements, especially the wood, which must not only be large enough, but also dry enough. It is best to use wood that has been dried in the shade for more than three years, and now Yinshan is going to find these for a while. timber?
Fei Qian smiled, as if he understood Li Dian's difficulties, pointed to the outside of the hall, "There are so few trees in the Yinshan Mountains, but so many rocks!" 』

"My lord's intention is to open mountains and take caves?"Use it as a warehouse? Li Dian understood Fei Qian's meaning almost immediately, "However, the work of opening the mountain... is also quite laborious..."

Fei Qian waved his hand and said: "This matter... is difficult to say, but easy to say, it is also simple... A certain has ordered Pingyang craftsmen to gather gunpowder from Beiqu, and go here to open the mountain... Now call Mancheng to come, then This is to ask, if the mountain caves are used as warehouses, where is the best place...』

If we used to say that we used gunpowder to blow up the roads and destroy the gates of the village in small troubles, now it is a big project.

Perhaps it was also the first in the Han Dynasty.

"Gunpowder...open up mountains..." Li Dian muttered a few words, and then he couldn't help feeling a little bit emotional.He had seen gunpowder back then, and he also knew what kind of existence this kind of thing existed in the hussar army, but now Fei Qian actually wanted him to be in charge of such a project, using these terrifyingly powerful things...

For Fei Qian, the power of these gunpowder is indeed "scary".

All gunpowder is scum in front of the big mushroom.

But Li Dian doesn't know about big mushrooms, so he thinks gunpowder is terrible, but Fei Qian actually trusts a general like him, not only willing to live in Yinshan City, but also willing to let him command such a weapon Use, even if it is only used to open mountains, is enough to prove some things...

Li Dian prostrated himself on the ground, "Your subordinates will definitely die, and live up to your lord's entrustment!" 』

Fei Qian: "..."

...(￣ω￣=)...

On the other side of the Han territory, there was another person who said almost the same words, "This subordinate will definitely live up to my lord's trust!" 』

It was Cui Yan who fell to the ground.

Standing aloof is Cao Cao.

Standing aside was Chen Qun.

Cao Cao pulled Cui Yan up with a smile, "With Ji Gui as your assistant, you will have no worries!" 』

When Cao Cao was talking, he was still smiling slightly, and nodded to Chen Qun who was beside him.

Chen Qun and Cui Yan bowed again, then retreated, ready to start the work of talent selection...

Cao Cao squinted his eyes and smiled, as if watching the two leave happily.Then slowly a smile froze on his face, and finally turned into a sigh.

"Brother Benchu..." Cao Cao said softly, "I never thought about it, I still went your old way..."

The new road is full of thorns.

It is easier to walk the old road, after all, there have been predecessors.

Cui Yan bowed his head, which represented that Cao Cao and the Jizhou gentry had entered a new stage.

stage of mutual compromise.

Because Cao Cao promised to launch a large-scale talent recommendation and recruitment campaign in Jizhou, people in Jizhou let go of the information about competing with Cao Cao and began to obey Cao Cao's assignment.

After all, the previous behavior was to negotiate conditions and get benefits. Now that Cao Cao has compromised a step, Jizhou will naturally take a step back together. It is not a good character to make progress.

It's like two people boxing in the ring. If they are desperately entangled, it's not a boxing match. You can change to judo, so there must be a certain distance between them, and then they will draw their fists back and punch them out.

As for now, of course it is the stage of retracting each other. As for the bell for the next round, it has not yet sounded.

There is no doubt that Cao Cao needs a stable Jizhou and Yuzhou.Under such a major premise, Cao Cao saw that he could not recover Jizhou up and down immediately for his own use, so he threw out corresponding benefits in exchange for the support of Jizhou up and down.

Political balance, the price of mutual compromise.

It's like drinking poison to quench thirst.

If the opponent was not killed in the last round, then in the next round, the two sides will fight even more fiercely.

If Cao Cao can win in Youzhou, then he will naturally be able to oppress these Jizhou gentry with his victory, just like how Yuan Shao expanded his power to the entire Jizhou and Qingzhou after eliminating Gongsun Zan. If Yuan Shao hadn't turned his eyes to Feiqian's Bingzhou by mistake at that time, but launched an offensive directly against Cao Cao's Yanzhou, it could not be said that with Cao Cao's strength at that time, there was no way to deal with it at all...

Because in this round, people from Jizhou have obtained a certain position, and their control over the locality will be strengthened again, and the various deficits caused by certain things before will also be erased after the new official takes office. These things will have a negative impact on Cao Cao's control in the next stage, and Cao Cao will never forget these things. The smile on the surface hides a coldness behind it.

Chen Qun and Cui Yan gave in to each other again at the gate of the General's Mansion, and then walked out hand in hand, facing the reserve officials who were preparing for the last exam in the front yard of the General's Mansion. Lang Guan.

I'm an official...

Well, I'm about to become an official.

As long as you pass the threshold in front of you, you are an official.

Then become an "official", what can you do?

Of course hey hey hey...

Then collect more money, get more power, become a bigger official, and have more hehehe...

Does everyone have aspirations?

Is not it?
Chen Qun stood on the steps, and Cui Yan stood aside.

So Cui Yan saw the look of longing in the eyes of these Jizhou children in front of him, he couldn't help smiling, and stroked his beard.

Cui Yan cherishes his beard very much.Although it is not as good as some people's beards, Cui Yan also takes good care of it. He not only needs to wipe it from time to time, but also uses a kit to carry it when it is critical.

After all, this thing is just a facade.If a person is healthy, his beard will naturally be shiny, but if he is sloppy and poor, he will definitely not care about what his beard looks like.

But when Cui Yan and Chen Qun finally unfolded the scroll in their hands and read out the exam questions aloud, Cui Yan accidentally tore off two precious beards, which were messed up in the wind...

Examinations existed in the Han Dynasty, and then carried forward in the hands of Hushi Feiqian, which affected the territory of Shandong. To a certain extent, it also made the children of Shandong not so disgusted with this method. Anyway, there are internal information. If it weren't for the fear that something would happen if there were too many standard answers, I would have even wished that I would ask someone to help me write it first.

Anyway, generally speaking, they first come up to praise the big man, and then praise Cao Cao, and then express their ambitions, and they will definitely manage the place "well", please rest assured the court, please rest assured the general and so on...

But now...

"There is a city today, but its size is unknown.There are acres of fields, but I don't know how many.There is sanghe, but the quantity is unknown.There are small officials who don't know the good and the bad.Let me ask if it is long, how should it be done?And answer.The time limit is three hours. 』

Chen Qun's lingering voice was very low, and everyone looked panic-stricken.

"Mr. Chen! Cui Yan stared and leaned over, "What kind of topic is this?"The original title is not this! 』

Chen Qun smiled slightly and said, "This question is a new one for today's master..."

Cui Yan shook his sleeves, "This question is ridiculous!If you don't know, how can you answer?It is reasonable to change back to the original title! 』

Chen Qun looked at Cui Yan, his smile didn't change, "Cui don't drive, this question... the lord can answer it, so can this one, so it's possible that these people can't answer it?" 』

Cui Yan took a long breath, stared, and wanted to explode, but there was no reason to explode.

It's just an exam question, and it's not a matter of life or death. If it turns out like this, wouldn't the previously negotiated conditions be overturned again?

But if you just answer like this, it seems too embarrassing...

Choose benefits, or choose embarrassment?
As long as you don't feel embarrassed, the embarrassment is someone else's.

Cui Yan's beard moved, and then a smile slowly appeared on his face. He no longer debated whether the question was reasonable or not, and turned to the students who were about to answer the question: "Everyone." !Good answer! 』

... щ(Дщ) ...

Not every exam is fatal, but it is definitely not just the exam that is fatal.

Just like sending troops this time, Zhu Zhi felt that it would kill him.

Sun Quan's courteous treatment, generous attitude, and meticulous care and love for Zhu's family have now turned into a handful of knives, which are pressed against Zhu Zhi's back, making it difficult for him to hide.

Now who in Jiangdong doesn't know that Sun Quan has the best attitude towards Zhu Zhi?
Sun Quan personally came to see Zhu's mansion, not only to give Zhu Zhi enough courtesy, but also to give gifts to everyone in Zhu's mansion, even the servants of Zhu's mansion!
Zhu Zhi knew that these were life-buying gifts!Buy his life, buy the lives of Zhu's family!
Those who come out for sale can always hope to meet a good buyer.But when encountering a buyer who is too easy to talk to, the seller will always wonder whether the target price is too low, and the sale is a loss...

It can't be said to return those gifts again, and then go through the process again.

Once you get the money to buy your life, you have to hand over your life.

own, or someone else's.

Rules are rules. If you don't follow the rules, no one will talk to you about the rules in the future, and you will still be the one who suffers at that time.

So now, I still have to talk about the rules...

A small room for four people.

Zhu, Gu, Zhang, Lu.

"In the next house, there are dozens of family members, three hundred stones of grain and millet, and ten altars of good wine... If Uncle Zhu Shi needs it, he will send it right away..."

The one who speaks first is of course the youngest.

Zhu Zhi glanced at Lu Xun, was he the one short of dozens of servants and three hundred shi of grain?What's more, does this mean that if you don't go, you will go?
And Lu Xun especially emphasized the wine...

"Good wine? ’Zhu Zhi smiled slightly, with a bit of disdain in his smile, ‘Let’s just let my nephew drink for himself! 』

"Thank you, uncle. Lu Xun bowed and saluted, then retreated to a corner and stopped talking.

Zhu Zhi looked at Gu Yong, but Gu Yong still didn't speak.

This is Gu Yong's strength and also Gu Yong's shortcoming.

"Brother Zhang..." Zhu Zhi turned to look at Zhang Yun, "This matter..."

"Cough cough...cough cough..." Zhang Yun coughed twice, "Ah, I'm old, time is not forgiving, if this body is good, I will definitely accompany Brother Zhu for a walk!" 』

Zhu Zhi frowned slightly.

Just when Zhu Zhi felt a little uncomfortable, Gu Yong spoke. "Brother Zhu, what Brother Zhang means is very beautiful..."

"Um? Zhu Zhi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Zhang Yun, and after a while, suddenly smiled, "It's really good, it's good!"Brother Zhang give more pointers! 』

Zhang Yun waved his hand, "We're all in the same spirit...Brother Zhu, you're being polite..."

"So, so-and-so is leading the battle!" ’Zhu Zhi laughed, and arched his hands, ‘I would like to ask the three of you to take care of this house chores...’

"It's as it should be, Brother Zhu, you can rest assured. Zhang Yun nodded and said, Gu Yong and Lu Xun also agreed.

The discussion has been made, and the three of them did not wait too long, so they left one after another.

Zhu Zhi sent the three of them away with a smile, and when he turned around, all the sunny faces on his face turned into cold.

"Same Qi Lianzhi!This is the same spirit! ’Zhu Zhi patted the table, gritted his teeth, ‘What a “same spirit”! 』

"Father..." Zhu Ran, who came out from the backyard, waved the surrounding servants to retreat, and then stepped forward and said, "Father, please calm down..."

Zhu Zhi was still angry, pointing out of the hall, "You heard it too, what are they all about?"ah?That brat from the Lu family, just talk about wine when he comes up!I'm afraid I forgot the ten-year agreement!Damn stuff! 』

"Then that Zhu Zi surnamed Zhang pretended to be sick again!What's even more exasperating is that the surname Gu wants me to pretend to be sick! ”Zhu Zhi patted the table, “A certain Zhu family!Could it be that he has become a shrinking turtle, a person who pretends to be ill and avoids trouble? !Then when a certain person said that he was going to fight, everyone was smiling, and there was nothing wrong with it!This is the same Qi Lianzhi!I'm so embarrassed to say something in the same breath!Really angry! 』

Zhu Ran frowned, "But... my lord, the previous battle in Changsha lost a lot of good players in the family, and now it's going out again..."

Hearing this, Zhu Zhi also sighed for a long time, somewhat helpless, "Now Zhou Gongjin and Zhang Zibu have agreed to fight, if someone avoids him, how can he convince the public in the future?"The matter has come to this point, and there is no way to avoid it... But this war may not always be what you want, there is an old saying... you will be outside... Haha, haha! 』
