The autumn of the Tang Dynasty is really cool.

At this time, it was a little cooler to stand on the edge of Weishui.

At the same time, there is also the heart of Fang Yiai, when His Majesty's will comes down to make him an inspector, how ugly and ugly his face will be.

And when he saw Li Ke, Cheng Chubi and Changsun Lian who were casual, his face was even more ugly.

Unconsciously, even the prince moved with Qin Shou, and he couldn't help but feel sad.

Isn't he really the material to be a colt?

Qin Shou tucked away his clothes and asked everyone, "What's that...... Have the people from Yanjiazhuang arrived? ”

As soon as these words came out, Fang Yiai couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart, and his face turned green.

Aren't the people you hired before from that place?

That's right, Qin Shou was thinking about the group of people who tied him up before, in fact, he started to think about it since he gave money so neatly last time, but he didn't expect to use them so quickly.

Well, before leaving, he specially asked Cheng Chubi to send another car of money and brought a message.

Original words: "Brother has encountered something, I hope you can help yourself!" ”

"Old Fang, you go to the front and take a look!"

Fang Yiai's head shook faster than a rattle, "My stomach hurts!" ”

But as soon as he turned his head, a group of people came over from afar, and they shouted before they arrived.

"Oh, brother, I'm seeing you!"

"What happened this time? This is sending so much money again? ”

"Little brother, you are so polite in our relationship." The thin man 'Strategist' laughed and said.

“......”

Qin Shou's face was also overjoyed, "Hey, I thought you weren't coming?" Aren't you afraid that I will report to the official to find you back? ”

At this time, the bald head laughed and said: "If it were someone else, we really wouldn't dare to come, but we can still trust the little brother!" ”

"Hurry up, put on food and drink, let the brothers fill their stomachs first, let's go!"

"Okay!" Several men said boldly.

Li Ke, Cheng Chubi and Changsun Jian who looked at each other this time were secretly surprised, Qin Shou had never been so enthusiastic about himself in ordinary times, but he was so kind to a few mud legs?

Fang Yiai's heart was beating wildly, and his brain was buzzing.

Nima, crazy!

It was really the gang of people he invited to tie up Qin Shou before, although the two sides were trading with their faces covered at that time, but he could hear the voice.

Can...... How did Qin Shou get in touch with those guys?

He felt inexplicably weak, and his fingers were a little shaky!

......

The breeze is coming, and the water is not rippling.

Autumn leaves fall from the trees on both sides, and some dance in the air, falling to the ground and spreading a golden quilt on the earth.

Because it is downstream, the speed of wearing is not slow.

The first three days had nothing to do, from Weishui through the Tongqu, then into the Yellow River, to the eastern capital of Luoyang, and then into the Tongji Canal.

Everyone couldn't help but feel a little happy when they looked at this scenery, especially Li Ke, although he was a prince, but it was the first time he traveled by boat.

Qin Shou, on the other hand, often observed the situation on both sides of the strait and recorded it in a small notebook.

During this period, Li Ke always came to get close to Qin Shoutao inadvertently, asking this, asking that.

Of course, Cheng Chubi and Changsun Jian also intentionally or unintentionally said a few more words to Qin Shou.

"Brother-in-law, I heard my father say, do you think this luck is so important?"

Qin Shou couldn't help but sigh when he heard this: "That is, this Cao Yun is too important, if it is properly maintained, let the grain from the south be transported to the north, and the Cao grain can supply almost everyone's daily needs, and it can greatly support the normal operation of the entire imperial court." ”

"Third brother, you may not know about this, who let no one in our family be above the court!"

"I'll tell you a little bit about it, and you'll understand!"

Li Ke's eyes couldn't help but look at Qin Shou with great anticipation.

Cheng Chubi and Changsun Lian, who were not far away, also got closer.

"From the perspective of the court, the transportation of grain from the south to the north, or the transfer of grain to various regions of Datang through Cao Yun, can make it a powerful means for Datang to adjust materials and balance society."

"Militarily speaking, what is the basis on which the huge local garrisons in various parts of the Tang Dynasty, the defense and attack on the long border, and the various wars of the Quartet are all built?"

Li Ke's eyes flickered, and he subconsciously said: "The force of the army? ”

Qin Shou shook his head, "The basis of all this is grain and grass, in terms of logistics, fighting and fighting, fighting and fighting, is it not money and grain?" ”

Li Ke's eyes shrank suddenly, and he was a little shocked in his heart.

It was money and food, this was the first time he had heard of it, but it made his heart pound.

Qin Shou continued: "I heard that in the past, the grain was pushed by the people and pulled by the carriages, and when we fought in the Tang Dynasty, the people ate mostly the grain of Longdi and the Yellow River, how much can these two places be levied when they are fighting?" ”

Li Ke couldn't help but be stunned and couldn't help shaking his head.

He didn't know how much he could collect, but it was true that it was difficult to levy every time.

Qin Shou said with a smile: "Is there a proverb called "Su Lake is ripe, the world is full"? If the rich grain and grass in the south of the Yangtze River can be transported by Cao Yun, then what is the background of our Datang? What a powerful material backing that would be! ”

"Besides, while Caoyun is constantly developing, it can also promote the development of agricultural water conservancy. When the people sell their grain, they can buy more things, and their lives are richer. ”

"It's a good thing for the country and the people!"

After Qin Shou finished speaking, Li Ke fell into deep thought.

Why do you study hard in military books, it is because if you want to win the heir, you can only have so many opportunities if you have the power of the military and establish meritorious deeds.

But now Qin Shou's words made him suddenly suddenly, he had other options, such as mastering the way of money and food, such as mastering the matter of luck......

In this way, the big position may not be impossible to fight.

Cheng Chubi and Eldest Sun Chuan looked at Qin Shou, their eyes shining.

At this time, they think differently from each other, but they are strikingly similar.

That is, it must be right to have your back against this guy, and at the same time tell yourself that you must not let this guy have an accident.

......

By the fourth day, they were already at the junction of Tongji Canal and Huaishui, and they were not too far from the place where the accident had occurred.

Everyone's minds suddenly became much more careful.

In Qin Shou's eyes, the most reliable is still Lao Fang, he usually doesn't see him and the crowd together, basically either lying down to sleep or standing on the boat and inspecting the Quartet without saying a word.

As everyone knows, at this time, Fang Yiai almost didn't dare to meet with the people of Yanjiazhuang, and there were shame, fear, anger, and many other complex emotions lingering in his heart.

Sure enough, not long after entering Huaishui, something still happened!

At this time, the fog on the river had dispersed, and it was too far away to see clearly, but you could still see the black pressure ship in front of you.

Suddenly, several black boats rushed out, and someone in the bow of the boat carried a knife in his hand.

"Qin Shou, go in and don't come out!"

Qin Shou couldn't help but poke his head out, but was shouted by Li Ke.

The ship was not so nervous at this time,

Li Ke himself had already fought, and with the addition of a few hundred horsemen arranged by Li Shimin, they were all people who were used to seeing life and death, and they were not panicking at this time.

One by one, they drew their weapons, and the archers put their arrows on their bows.

Cheng Chubi and Changsun Chuan are also holding the sharp blades in their hands, especially the eldest grandson, with a light in their eyes.

"Ready!" Li Ke

"Wait for my order, a hundred steps!"

"Whoosh!"

"Who? Who the fuck is shooting arrows? ”

Everyone turned their heads, but they saw Qin Shou holding a crossbow in his hand, and he was in a daze!
