- Because a few guards passed by and disturbed by her outside the door, the two people in front of the stove in the kitchen let go of each other, and even the eyes that looked at each other strangely separated her.

Without eye contact, neither of them spoke again, but silently busied themselves with the matter at hand. It's just that the two of them are obviously also a little absent-minded, and their movements of holding a spatula or turning a book are a little stiff...... Perhaps this is the third type of communication.

Even if they are thousands of miles away, they will miss each other for the moon, even if they can't see each other; Even if they are blind and deaf, they can feel each other's existence in their small home, even if they just feel a trace of wind brought by the blowing of their clothes; At the same table, two pairs of chopsticks are handed out from opposite directions and land on the same piece of braised pork on the plate, but they are released almost at the same time, even if no one shouts out first...... This is all the third type of communication.

There is no need to touch to perceive, no need for language transmission, and people can also communicate with each other, which is the ability of human beings.

At this time, the two people in the kitchen room were almost communicating in this way, and the reason why they said it was about the same, because the two of them only had a certain resonance in their actions, and both of them were busy with the things at hand according to their usual habits, but they had another thing in their minds, so it seemed that both of them were a little stiff in their actions.

Chen Jiu lifted the lid of the pot and scratched the pot a few times with a cold shovel before the water was boiling. If she were in normal times, she would never lift the lid of the pot before the water was boiling, and she would never use a shovel to stir the raw and hard rice grains under the water that had not yet warmed.

However, she didn't want to look at the man under the stove at this time, so she had to find something for herself to do, even if it was really boring and of no practical value.

Looking at Lin Shan again, Rao is how thoughtful and theoretically he usually is, and his behavior at this time is almost degraded to the level of a naughty child.

Even if he had just entered the kitchen room under the pretense of not being able to cook a stove, the act of throwing the books he had read directly into the stove without the slightest spark at this time was really incomprehensible for a child who knew what fire was.

After a while, he seemed to realize that although there were several books piled up in the stove, there was no fire. Look around. He found a fan made of cattail, and without thinking much about it, he fanned it over.

Burst......

There was a sound of air rushing in the hearth, still not on fire, but on smoke.

The chimney was already filled with smoke, and at this moment, some of the smoke could not accommodate the new smoke, so it all reversed back. The black smoke from the ink-stained paper seemed to be more choking than the ash smoke from the firewood, Lin Shan squinted, and accidentally swallowed a few puffs of cigarettes, causing him to cough again and again.

When Lin Shan took the pampas fan and fanned the stove. The old wine has already come over. She didn't speak. I just picked up the gas bag that the firegirl had used before in the pyre, and blew it towards the stove.

――

On the roof of another house, about thirty paces away from the kitchen, two guards squatted, seemingly doing the work of clearing the roof of the broken tiles.

Suddenly. Standing on the top of the roof and sighing at the guard on the other side of the kitchen, "It's so beautiful, it's like the fairy pond of the spirit island in the legendary Middle East Sea."

Another guard squatting on the eaves followed his line of sight, and then pouted disapprovingly: "What is the Spirit Island Immortal Pond, it is obviously the kitchen that is on fire, and the rubble is smoking."

At this time, the two people on the roof were the two guards who passed by the kitchen door just now, accidentally bumped into the two people hugging each other in the house, and then ran away in shock.

Seeing that his views were not agreed with by his companions, the guard standing on the roof said helplessly: "You really don't have the slightest illusion of beauty and harmony, which will make you lose a lot of happiness."

The guards crouching on the eaves had a disdainful expression on their faces. "If I hadn't worked with you for a few years, I'd have thought you'd be too fantasical and have neurotic precursors."

The guard on the roof suddenly asked curiously, "What is 'neuroticism'?" And what are the precursors?"

"It's a mental problem, it's a disease, so it's also called neurosis." The guard squatting on the eaves smiled slightly, "Yao Lao said." ”

"you!" There was a moment. The guard standing on the roof really wanted to be possessed by the Lord of the Martial God, and then lifted all the 5,721 gray tiles on this roof and slapped it on his partner's smiling face, "I think you made it up, specifically to slander me, right?"

Although he doesn't have the strength of a martial god, as a person who practices martial arts, he still has the kung fu to casually raise his legs and fly two or three tiles.

The guard squatting on the eaves had a partial face, a short head, and a beckon, avoiding two tiles and catching one tile respectively, and then he pretended to be aggrieved and said: "Yao Lao really said so, but I was lazy just now, and I omitted a few words when I paraphrased. Yao Lao's original words are that the mentally ill person still has a symptom of split consciousness in front of him, and the mentally ill mentally ill person is what we often call a 'madman'. ”

The guard standing on the ridge of the roof was about to fly another leg to reinforce the tile soldiers, but at that moment he suddenly stiffened slightly, for they heard a shout from under the house: "You two cattle! Kicking your hooves all the way to the roof? Get the hell out of here! ”

The two guards on the roof hurriedly jumped off the ground, although they didn't really roll sideways, but looking at the expressions on their faces at this time, it was obvious that the soul in the body was so frightened that they wanted to roll.

When they were still on the roof, they could already hear who was scolding under the house. The main reason for their horror was that they remembered that the two tiles that had flown down the eaves did not seem to make a sound of shattering.

"That's the result of your voluntary application to go to the house to pick up tiles?" Si Ji, the deputy head of the guards, who was standing straight opposite, raised his hand holding the two tiles, and looked directly at the two people in front of him, with obvious annoyance in his eyes. A lump had risen on his forehead, which was very conspicuous because of the bright red color of his skin, but the two subordinate guards who were close to him did not dare to look at him directly.

"I'm sorry, my hand slipped." One of the guards whispered his mistake.

"With your skills, you won't be able to hold even a tile?" Si Ji was still angry, "You would use such a clumsy lie to perfunctory me, are you insulting my intelligence?"

Another guard finally couldn't help but explain in a low voice: "It's because we saw smoke rising from the roof of the kitchen that we were distracted...... You have to believe it, Deputy Chief, that this is a landscape that deserves to be shocked by us. ”

"What's so strange about smoke coming out of a fire that can be described as 'shocking'?" Although Si Ji said this, the expression on his face was obviously slightly softened compared to before.

"Of course......" The guard saw that the deputy chief's face softened slightly. I was able to relax a little, and I straightened my back slightly in order to show respect and apology, and said with my hands: "...... But if you know who almost set the kitchen on fire, you may find the word 'shocked' too weak. ”

――

The result of Lin Shan's substitution as a fire slave in front of the stove will not be to set the kitchen house on fire, but to let all the people in the residence open the valley tonight. It is very likely that he did not come to light the fire, but most likely to have come to put it out.

Thankfully, he still had a wine by his side, and she could easily patch up all the mistakes he made on the dark road of burning the fire in front of the stove at any time.

Holding the bamboo tube against the position where there is still a little faint spark, blowing air, as the fire gradually rises, the speed of air transmission from one end of the bamboo tube into the stove also increases. Soon the stove was lit up.

The old wine puts the bamboo tube back on the pyre. At the same time, he casually explained: "Only use a fan to urge the fire." But there is no fan in the stove. First, it is not easy to get the fan in, and secondly, even if the fan is forced to enter, a lot of firewood ash will be rolled out, so it is rare to make any good meals in the smoke-filled kitchen. ”

"I really don't have the talent to burn. But several of them firmly disbelieved it, but ...... Now they should be able to see it for themselves. Lin Shan continued to flip through the book, the corners of his mouth raised, although he didn't say any euphemistic words, but the dry atmosphere in the kitchen just now suddenly warmed up.

No matter how seamless a wall is, to let sunlight penetrate it, you only need to move a brick of space.

……

On the wide field in front of the north gate of the inner city of Kyoto, a motorcade arrived early in the morning.

The most obvious difference between the carriage system and the ordinary driving in this team is the height, and the corner of the top of the team's carriage. All have a small flag planted. The small flag is made of black cloth and embroidered with white silk thread on it with a feathered swallow.

Kyoto businessmen and even some ordinary people know that the convoy with such a banner is an industry under the name of the Yan family.

The swallow emblem that is stamped on the body and painted in blue paint is fixed. It's on every car, but the swallow flag is active. There are also two kinds of small flags, the white swallow means that it is walking empty, but walking empty-car is something that the Yan family caravan rarely does.

The Yan family has a big business, and while the business is bigger, the division of labor is also very fine. There is freight coming, that is, there is freight back. When the incoming goods depart, the relevant information has been delivered to the destination in advance, and the goods to be carried back by the convoy are prepared in advance, so as to reduce the time and material consumption on the journey.

This kind of efficient and well-coordinated business rules have long been familiar to the Yan family as if they could be easily used.

Generally speaking, when the Yanjia convoy returns, there may be one or two cars with white Yan flags. That may be because a few carriages on the way here were worn.

On the way back, in order to ensure the safety of the goods, several main persons in charge of the Yanjia Chamber of Commerce made a plan after discussion, allowing the car in question to hang the white Yan flag and return empty, which was included in the normal consumption.

The Yan family's technology such as the configuration and renovation of trucks is strictly confidential, and it is the same as the powerful computing center set up by their family in the Entrepreneurship Association, which is a wealth of knowledge that is not passed on to the outside world.

In order to speed up the work efficiency, two kinds of small swallow flags will be used to distinguish vehicles. After arriving at the destination, the carriage can be directly separated from the two factions without counting, unloading all the way, and putting it into storage all the way for repair.

But early this morning, whether it was the guards on the city tower looking down, or the people entering and leaving the city at the city gate, they could easily find that in the convoy of the head of the Yan family, the number of white Yan flags was obviously more than that of the black Yan flag, which means that the convoy was mostly empty, but the inspection of such a convoy out of the city gate was still a bit slow.

The three carriages that set off from the Prime Minister's Mansion arrived at the north gate of Kyoto, and after they lined up at the tail of the Yan family's convoy, they did not move, and they were frozen in place for almost an hour.

If the fleet is fully loaded, the speed of the inspection may be slower. But there are obviously so many cars with white swallow flags on them, which makes the people waiting behind a little impatient.

After the carriage of the Prime Minister's Mansion stopped for a while, the driver in the carriage at the front finally felt that he couldn't wait any longer, so he couldn't help jumping out of the car, ran to the front and walked around the Yan family's convoy for half a circle, and observed it a few times.

However, in doing so, he did not do anything to speed up the inspection of the convoy out of the city. It didn't take long for the coachman to return, and he didn't find the reason why the Yan family's caravan was stranded. And the irritability in his eyes became heavier, and at the same time, he added a lot of helplessness.

The coachman walked back slowly, and did not return to his own car. He thinks that the car still can't go at this time anyway, and he will have to wait when he goes back, so why don't you ask the person in charge of this trip, maybe he can change the path out of the city?

So he ran to the carriage in the middle, and when he saw that the man in the driving seat was still sitting unhurriedly, he considered it for a while, and suppressed the irritability in his heart. Only then did he ask respectfully, "Boss Gao." What do you think about now?"

The "Boss Gao" that the coachman respectfully refers to the person who sits upright. His real name is a 'hidden' character, and his actual identity is not a groom, but one of the ten generals of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Although the ranking of the ten generals is not strictly based on the order of personal ability. But high diving is an exception. He ranks first among the ten generals, in addition to the first order, his wisdom and martial arts are combined, and he is also the strongest person among the ten generals.

Although the prime minister has not specified anything, in private, the ten will take Gao Qian as the core of leadership, listen to the Prime Minister's orders in major matters, and discuss many details with Gao Qian in the implementation process. Wait for him to make a decision. The other generals in the Prime Minister's Mansion and even the miscellaneous servants of the family also have some respect for the high potential in their hearts.

In the incident where the prime minister assigned Gao Qian to escort Cen Chi to the northwest to seek medical treatment, it can also be seen that Xiang Ye attaches great importance to Cen Chi and Gao Qian.

This trip will probably go to the back. The more slim and dangerous it is. Xiang Yewei believes that Gao Qian can be qualified for this trip, and such a dispatch decision not only includes his trust in Gao Qian's loyalty, but also his trust in his ability. And to send others with him, I am afraid that I will be sent to death.

Gao Qian knew that this trip was dangerous and difficult, but this also stimulated his desire to serve Xiangye.

Hearing the coachman's inquiry, although the other party's voice was very respectful and deliberately disguised, Gao Qian could easily hear the impatience contained in his tone, and his reply was just three words calmly and simply: "What's the matter?"

Seeing that Gao Qian was not in a hurry at all, but his three carriages were blocked at the gate of the city by the Yan family's convoy, and it was a situation that could be seen when he opened his eyes, and the coachman couldn't help but sigh softly.

He pointed to the long convoy ahead that couldn't be seen moving without looking carefully, and said slowly: "The little one went to the front just now to take a look, and found that although the Yan family's convoy was moving, it was walking too slowly. And the gap between the cars in front of them was obviously very cheerful, but the last five cars were like wheels burned on the ground, and they didn't go ahead at all! ”

Gao Qian was silent for a moment and then said, "It's impossible for us to cut in the queue, wait."

The coachman seemed to have a plan in his heart, and when he heard this, he immediately opened his mouth and discussed: "This is not like the habit of the Yan family's merchants, could it be that something happened?" Boss Gao, let's go out of the city in a different direction! If the goods transported by the Yan family this time really have any problems, they will be stranded here, and we can't wait with them! ”

"If there is a problem with the goods in the car, the result can only be that the officers and soldiers sent by the Kyoto Prefecture will be dragged away and detained in the warehouse, instead of continuing the inspection at the city gate." Gao Qian quickly shook his head, denied the coachman's speculation, and added: "The Yan family has a huge family business, and the so-called tree is a big trend, and our emperor of Nanzhao is a virtuous monarch who attaches great importance to the construction of the law, and the Yan family will not dare to make any commercial activities that violate the ban in the important city of Kyoto no matter what."

After muttering for a while, Gao Qian denied the coachman's construction again, and said lightly: "The north gate has always been a little sparse in freight transportation than the other three gates, and the west gate is the most congested, and because the sea is about to set sail, the east gate should be blocked now, I don't think there are other doors to go." There is no need to mention the south gate, if I want to go around the inner city for such a big circle, and then go around from south to north after leaving the city, it is so twisty and turning, it is better to wait here a little longer. ”

Although Gao Qian had not moved, he had already sorted out his thoughts in his mind and came up with a moderate countermeasure, and the coachman heard his narrow-mindedness from Gao Qian's words, and he couldn't help but look ashamed, and he didn't build anything without permission.

When he was silent, the coachman listened to Gao Qian and said: "It's too late, I don't know how long I have to wait, Mr. Cen in the car is still sick, and he can't accompany us to work so dry, you go buy food first, you want to be hot."

The groom took the silver handed over by Gao Qian, and asked casually, "I wonder if you and that gentleman are particular about eating?"

Gao Qianyan seemed to remember something, and turned around and stretched out his hand to lift the curtain of the carriage door. But as soon as his hand reached mid-air and was about to touch the edge of the curtain, he hesitated again. Eventually, he gave up. He jumped out of the carriage and walked to the car behind him.

In the third car, a doctor on the same road was placed, and Xiang Ye spent a lot of money to buy the medical hall he was willing to leave and go all the way to the northwest, so that he could take care of Cen Chi on the road.

Gao Qian inquired about the healer, and had an idea in his heart, so he came back and told the groom who was going to buy food what to buy.

The groom trotted all the way away, and the high dive sat back in the carriage to drive. Although he had slowed down his movements with extreme caution. But the carriage leaned forward slightly.

in the car. Suddenly, there was a slight sigh.

High submersion mood slightly moved. Through the curtain of the car, he whispered to the people inside, "Did you disturb Mr."

Xiangye once asked Cen Chi to be the Xixi of Shi Sangongzi for a period of time, although Cen Chi did not fulfill his duties due to the appointment of this Mr. Xixi, but Xiangye gave him an honorary status. No one in the Prime Minister's Mansion dared to despise it.

Gao Qian's age is a few years older than Cen Chi, but because Cen Chi has this important encounter in the past, plus he himself has never been arrogant and arrogant in treating people, most of the servants in the palace have respect for him because of this, so even the members of the ten generals are infected by love and are willing to call him 'sir'.

"Actually, I woke up a long time ago." The person in the car took a breath and said, "I didn't move because I didn't want to move."

The high dive lifted the corner of the curtain. I saw a tired Cen Chi sitting in a corner of the car.

After he was poisoned by that kind of chronic poison, although he would not die immediately, he only worked for a few days, and the whole person suddenly became emaciated. There is also a circle of bruises on the underside of the eyes, which is a phenomenon of internal organ qi luck disorder.

According to the doctor, people who have been hit by that kind of slow poison will first feel weak and drowsy, and their bodies will feel paralyzed intermittently, as if the blood is stagnant.

Gao Qian is a person who practices martial arts, and he knows very well what the paralyzing feeling of stagnant qi and blood is like, he looked at Cen Chi's appearance of struggling to even breathe, and couldn't help but feel some sympathy, and said warmly: "Mr. needs to rest more."

Ke Cen Chi saw Gao Qian lift the curtain and his eyes touched a touch of sunlight outside the car, he first squinted, and after getting used to it, he crawled towards the car door.

No matter how long you rest, you won't be able to regain your strength when you're healthy!

Cen Chi climbed to the door, as if he had climbed a mountain, and gasped for a while, but his body was not like the person who had just climbed the mountain, and he looked like he was sweating.

Gao Qian looked at him like this, a little worried and didn't know what to say.

Cen Chi took a breath, looked around, and then said softly, "Why is the carriage still parked here?" I remember that when I had just fallen asleep, our carriage was almost at the gates of the city. ”

"There is a Yan family caravan in front, it may be that the inspection steps are complicated, which slows down the speed of going out of the city." Gao Qianwen said: "Originally, I had plans to go out at another city gate, but I don't know what the situation is with the other gates. The horse restriction order in the inner city is too strict, and Mr. is unwell, so he can't bear to take you back and forth. ”

Cen Chi didn't seem to care about this problem, but said casually: "You are waiting like this, don't you find something to do?"

"Looking for something to do?" Gao Qian was puzzled. He really couldn't think of what else he could find to do at this time, and it would be good to be patient and wait.

Cen Chi sighed and said, "If you have time, get me a cane."

Gao Qian was stunned when he heard this, he didn't immediately understand the meaning of Cen Chi's words, but after he understood, he couldn't help but sink his eyes, and then said with a very serious expression: "Sir, I will definitely take you to find a good doctor."

Cen Chi smiled reluctantly and said, "I know you will not live up to Shi Gong's expectations, but at present, it seems that I really need a cane." After he said this, he turned his gaze to the Yan family's convoy in front of him.

Gao Qian hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed with Cen Chi's statement, his tone eased slightly, and said, "Then we can do it when it's free."

Cen Chi said casually: "Don't worry, it's okay to break a branch and cut it on the road." With that, he withdrew his gaze from the distant convoy and fell into a thoughtful silence.

Seeing this, Gao Qian also looked forward, looked at it twice, then retracted his gaze to look at Cen Chi, and asked softly, "What is Mr. thinking?" While he was asking Cen Chi, he was also asking himself in his heart: Is it really as the coachman said just now, what is wrong in the Yan family's caravan?

Cen Chi raised his eyes slightly, noticed the hint of vigilance in Gao Qian's eyes, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "It's nothing." The Yan family seemed to be waiting for someone, and there was a vacant section of the convoy without much movement. ”

After being reminded by his words, Gao Qian, who was thinking about the coachman's words just now, seemed to be a little uncontrollable, and his voice raised slightly, "How can this be." If that's the case, they should give way and let our people who are out of town in a hurry go first. ”

"Wait a little longer."

In the same way, Gao Qian said to the coachman just now, but now it is Gao Qian who is relieved by Cen Chi to arouse his feelings.

But at this time, Gao Qian is just like the driver who was depressed and anxious just now. I can't listen to persuasion.

He was not relieved by Cen Chi's persuasion. I just couldn't help but say again: "Procrastinate for such a boring thing." I don't want to endure it anymore. If they miss the time, they won't be able to make it to the next post station this evening, and their Yan family doesn't mind sleeping in the open, but how can Mr. accompany them?"

Cen Chi saw that Gao Qian seemed to have the intention of going to the front team to theorize. Hurriedly grabbed him and dissuaded: "I'm just guessing, maybe someone else really has something, and it doesn't necessarily ......."

As soon as he said this, something suddenly changed in the convoy ahead.

I heard a person's voice coming from the convoy, the tone was loud and full of neutrality, and he said loudly: "Yan Jiuzi, go ahead."

The voice paused slightly. He also said: "Yan Cross, go forward two times."

The tone of the voice seemed to give a command. Suddenly, there was a carriage in the middle of the convoy moving slowly, but the carriages at the front and rear ends were still firmly parked in place.

The voice then called out the name of "Yan Eleven Characters, Twelve Characters". It is a command to move forward.

In the entire convoy of the Yan Family Commercial Bank, only a few carriages in the middle were slowly moving with the order being issued, and the positions of the vehicles in front and behind did not change, but a long distance of open space had been vacated in the middle.

For the Yan family, who is long in land business, the General Chamber of Commerce has formulated a set of passwords for the exclusive Yan family caravan in the early years, and other land merchants have begun to imitate it in recent years, but most of them cannot abide by the Yan family caravan and standardize.

The number in the password represents the individual serial number of the vehicles in the convoy, but if there is a caravan in front and behind, it is necessary to shout the abbreviation of the chamber of commerce before the number serial number to warn.

At this time, in the open space inside the North City Gate, there was only the convoy of the Yan family's Chamber of Commerce, but despite this, the number of the Chamber of Commerce in front of the number sequence was not omitted. No matter what the situation, when the commander of the Yan family caravan guided the convoy to march, the commands shouted were standardized and consistent, and would not be changed in the slightest.

As for the word 'que' in the password, it is a measure of distance that is exclusive to the Yan family's business activities, and the Yan family's one ring refers to the length of a parking space for the Yan family's commercial vehicle.

The Yan family managed the relevant passwords for their caravans to the level of Cheng dù, which was as strict as the commanders of the military soldiers. There is a saying in the business world that describes it very well: business battles are like battlefields. Therefore, the Yan family, a behemoth family in the business world, can manage the people who do things below like this, which can be regarded as a subtle shape.

If the people present at this time were familiar with the meaning of the Yan family's passwords, when they heard the password guidance from the front of the convoy, even if they didn't get close and take a look at it with their own eyes, they could roughly guess that the middle of the convoy was now vacant for three carriages.

Cen Chi was originally going to persuade Gao Qian to wait a little longer, but after hearing those few commands, he paused. After a few moments, the words had changed when he spoke again.

"The Yan family has been in business for many years, and they have always been committed to perfection in the arrangement of matters, and there has never been a case of replenishment halfway, it seems that they are really waiting for someone this time, presumably we can leave soon." After Cen Chi said this, he climbed back into the car again.

The curtain of the carriage that had been lifted by him and hung down was still shaking slightly, and not far away there was the sound of other carriage axles turning and grinding on the ground.

Gao Qian turned his head to look at the place where the sound came from, and saw three carriages coming not far away, but judging from the standard of the carriage, all three carriages belonged to the van, that is, they were used to carry people.

From the appearance of the manned van and the cargo car, there is little difference, but if you compare it with the tall and wide commercial car in the Yanjia fleet, the difference is more obvious.

The three carriages were not moving fast, allowing the high diver to see who was driving. In fact, if it was an ordinary groom, it would be fine, but Gao Qian suddenly found that the person holding the reins and controlling the carriage led by him was probably not as simple as an ordinary groom. After a few more glances, Gao Qian came to a conclusion that made him a little unbelievable.

The man who sat in the seat of the carriage of the head estimated the value of the jasper only from the piece of jasper embedded in the crown of his hair. and the abacus hanging from his waist that was half-exposed outside the brocade bag, even if he was not the young master of the Yan family, he had nothing to do with the decision-making leaders of the Yan Chamber of Commerce.

Originally, Gao Qian still had suspicions, these three carriages may have been sent by other big families who wanted to leave Kyoto, but after seeing the young man with the crown jade on the carriage at the head, he no longer doubted that the people who rode this carriage were by no means idle people, and they might not be the descendants of the Yan family, but they were definitely related to this big family.

Only, after understanding this. New doubts rose in Gao Qian's heart.

What is the Yan family going to do?

Although the Yan family's current family business. He has ascended to the top of the land merchants. And the business of Bushi in the territory of Zhao also accounts for the majority of the total industry of the Yan family, but the head office of the Yan Chamber of Commerce is not in the territory of Zhao Kingdom, but in the small country in the west where the Yan family made its fortune.

It is located in the north of Zhaoguo. Crowded between the northern wild goose and the Daqingchuan in the west, there is also a country that is not very wide, but very rich, and is called Liang.

The founding of the Liang State is not too early, the difference is that the Northern Yan is a branch of the much older Great Cause Empire before the Great Zhou, while the Liang State is considered a branch in the middle of the Great Zhou. If it is only divided by time, the founding of the Liang State was earlier than that of the Zhao State, but it was later than the Northern Yan.

There is a saying in the historical compilation industry that Beiyan was founded in northern Xinjiang. The strength of the army is biased, and the civilization construction of the Northern Yan and the Southern Zhou Dynasty is inherited from the experience of the Great Cause Empire.

However, after more than 100 years of absorption and transformation, as well as the test of slight changes in the situation, the Northern Goose has far surpassed the Southern Zhou in terms of military capabilities. But it can't completely match the comprehensive national strength of the Southern Zhou Dynasty. In a border defense between the two countries, soldiers have been in a state of confrontation for a long time, which is like a sword against a spear, no one will obey anyone, but if it really starts, no one has a complete chance of winning.

In this case, in addition to the two centralized states of Beiyan and Southern Zhou, which were the first to divide into the territory of the Great Cause Empire, each with one side, there were also some small regimes around it.

After hundreds of years of time testing and washing, the Southern Zhou collapsed ten years ago, but it was not annexed by the Northern Goose, but was covered by another new monarchy. In the vicinity of these two countries, several small countries are also rising and falling, and now there are zài that are the thieves in the Qingchuan River basin and the Liang country, which is relatively complete in all aspects.

The Liang State was biased towards a commercial power, which the current Southern Zhao monarch had seen more than ten years ago when he was still in the northern frontier. The spirit of business can make the cold silver exude extreme brilliance; People in the business way, with an extremely sharp and slippery tongue, almost have the wisdom of a strategist, but they are not in love with power at all, and they are a very special group.

The reason why some historians say that the Liang State is a branch of the Southern Zhou Dynasty is because the founding time of the Liang State can be traced back to the time of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, which occurred more than 200 years ago.

At that time, the national power of the Southern Zhou Dynasty had reached its peak, but the monarch at that time still rejected private commercial activities. So some merchants came together on their own, and no longer stayed in this land where the spirit and wisdom of business could not be distributed, and went to the northwest corner to open up new horizons.

Therefore, the culture of the Liang State was greatly influenced by the Southern Zhou Dynasty, but it also had obvious national characteristics.

The Liang State is heavy on business, the Yan State is heavy on the military system, and as for the Southern Zhao Dynasty, which has not been born for a long time, it seems that it has inherited the great comprehensive characteristics of the Southern Zhou Dynasty.

In fact, the national policy implemented by the previous dynasty did not make much mistake in terms of social welfare and people's livelihood, but the authorities themselves made a mistake and wanted to 'demolish the house', that is, an iron plate had to be made out of the hole by themselves.

It has been more than 100 years since the founding of the Liang Kingdom, but the Yan Family Chamber of Commerce really began to crisscross the vast north and south continents, and the whole process is only reflected in one generation. And if you want to deduce, even if the Yan family made a fortune in the Liang country, it is probably because of the specialties of other countries.

The Liang State only provided the Yan family with institutional convenience, which was originally the characteristics of the Liang dynasty, but this does not mean that the lord of the Liang State took special care of the Yan family with his monarchy. And the mountain-like wealth accumulated by the Yan family is still their own private assets of the Yan family, and it has nothing to do with the national treasury reserves of the Liang State.

From a plane perspective, when the Yan family made a fortune, the Southern Zhou Dynasty was taking the last section of the downhill road, with displaced people everywhere and wars raging everywhere. During that period of time, even if the ancestors of the Yan family did not care about the Changnong of the Southern Zhou Dynasty and degraded the merchants, and insisted on taking root in the territory of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, it would be like a big gamble that would be lost, and it would be absolutely impossible to do it.
