Chapter 293: Wind and Cloud
Because of the influx of merchants and servants in the stone forest, the stone forest became more and more lively, and in contrast to this bustle, the atmosphere of each family was sluggish and the struggle for power between the deputy chief soldier and the chief soldier.

Because the people on this side are not on Liang Dahai's side, Liang Dahai is obviously at a disadvantage even if he has soldiers, not to mention that Marquis Jian has also attracted some people who are willing to follow him after he arrives here.
At the end of December, when it was the coldest day in the Stone Forest, the labor of the official road could no longer be carried out because of the cold weather, so it stopped.
After that, the New Year passed in a blink of an eye, and with the melting of winter snow, another year's spring came, at the end of March, when the stone forest had not yet ushered in the spring rain, and the stone forest separated two states of a county county suddenly appeared in the civil unrest, the cause of the civil unrest was heard that the son of the county Cheng in the county led people to rob the people in the resettlement point many times, injured the homeless, and reported to the official after the county prince protected the son of the county, and then several homeless people led the mountain bandits to attack the county.
When the news came, Li Yao was counting the proceeds from buying and selling dried vegetables in winter. She earned more money because of the previous dried vegetable trading, but in the end, the dried vegetables did not benefit as the wool thread trading, and after deducting various expenses, she only got 13,000 taels of silver in the end for the dried vegetable trading.
The reason why this transaction can make money is only because the locals of Shilin and the people in the nearby state capitals do not have the habit of drying dried vegetables, so she sent the money for this one-time transaction.
If she starts this business again next year, she won't have so much money to make.
After all, this era is a small-scale peasant economy, most families are self-sufficient, and the people know how to dry vegetables, so they naturally grow their own vegetables and dry them, so why buy from others?
With the occurrence of this civil unrest, King Zhao, whose fief was in Anyang, Luozhou, and King Heng, whose fief was in Ludi, successively played the banner of crusading against the king of rebellion, and the king of rebellion was Ji Chun is also today. Then the king of Huguang Chu rebelled.
Then there were civil unrest or banditry in the northern states, and this situation was certainly not normal.
At this time, although the heads of the Fu, Li, and Ji families did not discuss state affairs together, they all came to a conclusion, that is, the people's chaos is not the people's disorder, and the banditry is not the banditry, and some people are afraid that the world will not be chaotic.
In May, no matter how chaotic it is outside, the local Stone Forest is very peaceful except for the stricter defense of the city gate, as for whether it is really peaceful, I don't know.
Although there are many people entering the mountain, the place where Fu Jingheng and Ji Moxuan and their entourage stay is very remote and clean, and few people pass by. This also happened to be convenient for Fu and Ji to discuss things.
Since they got the news from Gu Ning at the end of last year, several families have not been calm in their hearts. At first, they only paid attention to the news in Kyoto, but with the chaos in various prefectures, they took advantage of the situation to pay attention to the situation in the stone forest.
How to get the news from Gu Ning, this has to start from the beginning.
Gu Ning wanted to deliver the news to the Fu family, and Fu Jingheng and Li Yao also wanted to do something with the help of Gu Ning's hand, but there was no way for the two parties to deliver the news.
In the end, Fu Jingheng said to Gu Ning that he would follow Gu Ning's experience, take care of Gu Ning, and help him do some chores. Gu Ning didn't know his nephew's intentions, but he realized that his nephew would definitely not be untargeted, so he also agreed to his nephew.
Since then, Gu Ning has often taken his entourage to Fu Jingheng when he is busy outside. Then Fu Jingheng used Agubo numbers when helping Gu Ning draw engineering drawings.
Gu Ning looked at the Arabic numerals curiously, and couldn't help asking. And Fu Jingheng naturally didn't tell Gu Ning that this was his wife's self-created text, but just said that he learned something from an ancient book, and felt that it was very easy to record numbers, and then told Gu Ning how to write the number of Agubo from one to ten.
After that, Fu Jingheng always gave his uncle some clothes, shoes and socks, etc., and would also borrow some books from his uncle to read, and every time he borrowed and returned a book, Fu Jingheng would always turn the book and ask his uncle some questions in the book. After going back and forth like this, Gu Ning's entourage didn't suspect anything.
And Gu Ning knew that his nephew had been talented since he was a child, but he wouldn't always ask questions for no reason, so he just watched quietly what his nephew was going to do.
Until one time when Fu Jingheng was returning his uncle's book, his uncle saw the Agubo number in the continuous pages of the book when he asked a question. Then there was progress in the delivery of messages between the two parties.
At that time, Fu Jingheng first turned to the back of the book to ask questions, then to the front, then to the back, and finally he was embarrassed to say to his uncle: "I should ask my uncle questions in order, so it is too troublesome to turn back and forth, so it is easier to ask in order." ”
And at that time, Gu Ning also saw that no matter before or after, there was always a small Agula number on the sentence of the question asked by the nephew.
Of course, his nephew and uncle usually ask and answer like this, and the entourage naturally didn't see anything strange about the book, so the two parties passed on the news in this way.
In the end, although Gu Ning did not help his nephew connect with local civil officials as a backer, he handed his nephew a message. The news came from the Duke of Xinguo, who was far away in the northwest.
It was precisely because of this news that the Fu family, who had been depressed by the death of the Da Gu family, had hope in their hearts, and soon the Fu family informed Li Jimin and Kang Wang Ye of the news.
"That Risong is a target that can be wooed, and it is easy to win him over, but I am afraid that he will be unlucky if he finally turns to Beiliang. So let's not talk about where the sun is in the song, I'll wait until I talk about Tongliang Dahai to follow. ”
Ji Moxuan was not on duty today, and Fu Jingheng followed him into the mountains to hunt. Han Jin returned to Beijing with the merchants in February. And because the north is not peaceful this year, the uncle of the Han family, who said that he will come in February and March, will not come in the future.
What Ji Moxuan said, Fu Jingheng naturally understood, he answered: "Liang Dahai doesn't pay much attention to money, but he will definitely not be willing to be the deputy chief soldier all the time without being valued by the imperial court, in the past six months, he and Marquis Jian have been fighting openly and secretly, and now he must be depressed and unable to vent, I will try to talk to him." If this can be done, this will be thanks to Marquis Jian. ”
"Did you already plan to go to Liang Dahai's house to teach first, and then win over Liang Dahai?" Although Ji Moxuan already knew the answer, he still asked.
"I have this plan, but Marquis Jian's actions have given me an unexpected gain. Don't tell me, you've been riding around for the past few months, you've been riding a horse for a while. Fu Jingheng looked at his friend with a smile and asked.
Ji Moxuan laughed when he heard this, he was talking to Fu Jingheng with the knife on his waist with one hand, then he raised his empty hand and patted Fu Jingheng's shoulder and said: "First I just wanted to find an Uncle Wang to take refuge and unite with Uncle Wang to take the stone forest, so I first drew a map of the topography and defense map of the stone forest. ”
"This matter is only known to the principals of your and my families, and you must not show any traces outside." Fu Jingheng instructed Ji Moxuan, and Ji Moxuan knew the severity, so he nodded. The two finished what they had to say, and then went home. (To be continued.) )
