Heifu deferentially left the small hall where he sat on pins and needles, and when he came out, he breathed the air outside, and felt that he was finally out of danger.

"This county shou teng is really an old coward......

In the past year or so, Heifu's career has been smooth, whether it was when he was traveling in the Wei Kingdom, he convinced Zhang's sincerity and got on the line with Chen Ping; still successfully attracted Li You's attention in the battle of Chu, became his short-range general, and showed his skills in Liyang, not only won the backer, but also made hundreds of Nanjun soldiers grateful, which can be described as fame and fortune.

All of this is led by Heifu himself, even the relationship with Li You, not to accept charity, but Heifu first cast a peach, and the other party reciprocated with Li, although he is a cronie, but Heifu also has his own confidence and dignity.

Until today, he finally capsized in the county guard's mansion.

Everything is clear, Ye Teng made such a big battle just to scare Heifu. First slapped Heifu to the ground, and then helped him up, and smiled, saying that I hit you for your own good......

The other party is a two-thousand-stone official, what else can Heifu do? can only be grateful, but in his heart, there is a feeling of grievance that he has been ambushed.

"The characters who can mix up to 2,000 stones, all of them are human spirits, I have to be cautious in the future, and I can't leave flaws for people to see through at a glance like before."

He also realized that compared with these bigwigs who have been in the political arena for decades and have deep roots, he is still just a spring sapling, and at the same time he has a sense of crisis.

When Heifu first entered the county, he thought that he wanted to be a "useful person" and was very enterprising. But now it seems that it is not a good thing to be too useful and too conspicuous, no, he is a small tree that has just grown, and there is already Ye Teng, a woodcutter who got up early, and he is waiting for him......

In this world, the useful catalpa wood, like the useless community oak thorns, is not safe.

Only when you also have the axe in your hand to hold the axe of life and death, can you have a peaceful night's sleep.

When he left the county guard's mansion, Heifu heard the slightly faint sound of the piano again, and he was at a critical juncture, and he was grateful that the sound of the piano inadvertently saved him, just like the thunder and lightning that saved Liu Bei.

"Who's playing the piano?"

Heifu looked at the county warden beside him.

"It should be the daughter of the county guard."

The subordinate said with a smile: "The daughter of the county guard is not yet in her age, and she has to practice the qin from the female teacher every day, and we are used to it." ”

"It's so good to play."

It was obviously an unfamiliar piano sound, but Heifu praised it for no reason, and then looked back at the small hall again, and secretly made up his mind.

"Unwillingly, when will I become a woodcutter with an axe?"

……

At the same time, in Ye Teng's study, the curtain of the inner room was lifted, and a middle-aged scribe in a deep robe walked out and saluted Ye Teng.

"The county guard can frighten this young left soldier Cao Shi."

Ye Teng smiled: "Young man, what's the point of being scared?" If you are not frightened, how can you know if he is the real Zicai? ”

This middle-aged man is the long history of the county Shouteng, as a high-ranking official of 2,000 stones, Ye Teng is qualified to recruit private staff, and the chief official is equivalent to the chief of staff, this chief official from Han has followed Ye Teng for many years, as a confidant, it is his duty to check and fill in the gaps for the lord.

Then the chief said, "But what this son said should not be believed." I was instructed to check the origins of the three generations of Heifu's ancestors, the family of the common people of Qianshou, until his generation only knew a little bit of writing, far from the family to pass on the teaching, near the guidance of no famous teacher, why within a few years, there were amazing deeds in the three industries of industry, agriculture and medicine? There are still mysteries in this matter, and the sovereign must not ignore them. ”

Ye Teng waved his hand disapprovingly: "Enough is enough, since he has explained the matter, why bother to investigate to the end?" Even if his words are not true, so what? ”

Changshi was a little surprised, didn't the county guard say, just want to hear Heifu tell the truth?

"What I want to hear is only the truth I am willing to hear, and the truth that can be explained to the king."

Seeing that Changshi was a little confused, Ye Teng asked him rhetorically: "Zheng Guo is a spy sent to Qin by South Korea, and he was full of lies earlier, but is Zheng Guo dead?" ”

"Han Fei didn't have a word of lie in front of King Qin, is Han Fei still alive?"

There is another sentence that Ye Teng didn't say, why did he become the feudal official of the Qin State today under the deception and concealment of the lord in Korea, and the rebellious minister?

Han has three heroes, but in the end, one dies and two survives, the lesson of this is not enough?

"A man of wisdom and skill must be far-sighted and discerning, and he cannot be selfish if he does not perceive." This was Han Fei's gift to Ye Teng back then.

But after these words, there is the second half of the sentence.

"Those who can practice the law must be strong and resolute, and if they are not upright, they cannot be overbearing!"

Ye Teng only took the first sentence and did not take the second sentence.

He can secretly see everything, and he can show perseverance and ability in front of the king and people, but he doesn't want to be a strong and treacherous person.

Today, he just wants to knock and knock this young man.

Ye Teng smiled: "People say, South Korea's Wan Ju Iron 釶 (shī), miserable as bee 虿 (chài)." But if it is not forged, how can it be used? ”

"It turns out that the county guard wants to appoint this son?" Only then did Changshi understand Ye Teng's true intentions, and he couldn't help but be ashamed of his sluggishness.

"Yes, yes."

Ye Teng paced indoors: "The king has decided to attack Chu, with the old general Wang Jian as the general, the day of the war will be after the autumn!" ”

"The king sent Li Yuan to Nanjun as a county lieutenant, and his meaning is very clear, so that I, the county guard, have no chance to lead the army."

Ye Teng was a little regretful, in the past few years, sitting in Nanjun, watching the Wang family and his son break the Three Kingdoms in a row, how could he not be hot?

But the clever Ye Teng also found out from the order sent by the King of Qin to Nanjun to recruit troops and raise food that this battle against Chu was very important, and the Qin State would mobilize the whole country.

"At that time, the generals will be stubborn in the land of Chu, conquer the city, and destroy the day of Chu, naturally there will be hard work and rewards."

"But the counties in the rear also have to count the household registration, prepare soldiers, and supply the front line with thousands of miles of food, if it is done well, it will also be a great achievement!"

Ye Teng has been in Nanjun for almost five years, he punished thieves and heroes with thunderous means, governed the originally chaotic Nanjun obediently, and greatly promoted the law and family education, and rectified the rule of officials, all of which was done for the king to see.

He doesn't want to die in the position of county guard, and he wants to go one step further and become a court! Even if you can't become the prime minister and the imperial historian in one step, you must at least do the internal history and take charge of the capital Xianyang and more than 40 counties in Gyeonggi.

So this preparation for the battle is his last chance to perform.

"The reason why the country is prosperous, the agricultural war is also, the military affairs are under the jurisdiction of Li You, his father is Li Si, it is not convenient for me to compete with him, so I have to make amazing achievements in agricultural affairs!"

At this critical moment, Anlu County presented a compost method that can increase the yield per mu by four or five percent, and then the Tongguan Workshop made a water scoop that can save manpower!

Ye Teng let Changshi spread out the map of Nanjun, there are eighteen counties in Nanjun, there are large areas of fields, of which half are paddy fields and half are dry fields.

"Yu Gong" said, Jing and Hengyang are only Jingzhou. The soil is only smeared with mud, and the field is only in the middle ......"

The population of Nanjun is not small, nearly one million, but the land is not very fertile, and it is only rated as "lower middle".

"But if the technique of composting and composting can be extended to the whole county, at least three or four percent more grain can be harvested than last year during the autumn harvest!"

Shang Jun's law is heavy on agriculture, in peacetime, the increase in grain production in the autumn harvest is also an important criterion for the calculation, the superior are praised and promoted, and the inferior are reprimanded and punished, not to mention on the eve of the war Chu, when the Qin State is in urgent need of food? Ye Teng could imagine King Qin's appreciation:

"Those who are good at serving the country, although the warehouse is full, do not steal from the farmers!"

In addition, there is also a water mill, in Ye Teng's opinion, this thing is simply specially designed for Nanjun, because Nanjun has many water flows, in addition to the rivers drawn on the map, there are hundreds of streams flowing endlessly.

If the water mill can be widely used in Nanjun, how much manpower can be saved by erecting some on each river? And then use those abundant manpower to collect animal skins, feathers, timber and other military materials, Ye Teng is sure that he will make Nanjun a blockbuster during the autumn harvest!

These two things are really God's help! This is the reason why Ye Teng attaches so much importance to Heifu.

It's just that based on the habit of playing tricks for many years, he didn't want to be passive in this matter, so he played conspiracy tricks, so that the black man, who had no intersection with the county guard, owed him a "life-saving grace" in vain, and also sent him a handle of "deception and injustice", after all, he was a young man.

Ye Teng smiled: "Actually, I should owe Heifu a big favor, such a person, why should I force him too much?" Although I beat him today, I will ask for credit for him afterwards, make him a public doctor, and even his sister and uncle will be promoted again! ”

Only then did Changshi understand Ye Teng's true plan, and he couldn't help but admire, this was the insight of an axe-wielding man, but he hesitated and said: "It's a pity, that black man is already Li You's person." ”

"Who said that?" Ye Teng said: "Didn't Xunzi say it when he entered Qin? The doctors of the Qin State are not friends with the party, not compared to Zhou, this sentence can be wrong, but it can also be right. ”

Ye Teng arched his hand towards the north: "Because we are all Qin officials, and we are all henchmen of the king!" What is the difference between doing things for the county guard and doing things for Li You? ”
