Chai Ningxin came back to her senses at this time, and the impact of that kind of leaflet on her was a bit big.

The princess took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Your shop is not a business, it is a heart. ”

The shopkeeper's cold sweat flowed out.

Princess An Ning is so powerful, she actually said exactly the same thing as several of the staff who commanded the envoys!

The shopkeeper tried to make his voice as steady as possible, "Your Highness, uh...... Awards, awards, in the next is just a ...... of doing things"

Chai Ningxin smiled, and a quiet voice came, "Don't worry, this princess didn't mean to embarrass you and the generals behind you." In your shop, there is a stove for military use, and it is better to be lighter. ”

The shopkeeper is obviously well-informed, and after a few breaths, he understands what the princess means, this is not forgetting the old love, and he wants to help the embarrassed Western Army!

After organizing the language, the shopkeeper said, "The princess came at the right time. As the princess said, several proprietors of the shop are all military people, so they naturally know that it is not easy to march in winter. Naturally, there are charcoal stoves in the army, and there are samples in the store right now, so wait a minute, princess. ”

Chai Ningxin drank a few sips of honey tea, and the guy in the store brought a small "charcoal stove", which looked like a whole piece of iron lumps.

Seeing that the princess was curious and a little puzzled, the shopkeeper drove away the guy who was panicked in front of the nobles and demonstrated it himself. The first marching charcoal stove designed by several warriors "independently" looked like a pressure cooker in Li Xiangyuan's time and space, but it was dark on the outside, and its appearance was not good.

The shopkeeper moved the charcoal stove to the princess so that she could see more clearly.

The marching charcoal furnace had no core and no mud embryo filling, and was completely beaten and formed with a thick iron sheet. It is certain that more iron is consumed, but because the volume is too small, it is not a waste of charcoal.

The first type of marching charcoal stove takes care of the situation in the army, without any fancy design, and is very simple to use.

This kind of marching furnace does not have a lid, only an iron plate that can be pulled, and when you need to add charcoal, you only need to pull the iron plate on top of it. It's easier to seal the door, either cover it or don't cover it, it's very rough.

Chai Ningxin nodded, feeling very novel, pointed to the tripod under the charcoal stove, and asked, "The iron shelf below is to keep the charcoal stove away from the ground?" Wouldn't it be better if it could be put away? ”

The shopkeeper was shocked, and designed the bracket below to be the kind that can be put away, which can save a lot of space, and maybe a lot of iron, why didn't he think of it?!

The shopkeeper patted his ass with a red face, "The princess is amazing, and the little heart is convinced." ”

Princess An Ning found that this shopkeeper was really interesting, and her tone slowed down a lot, "This shop, and the just-concluded event of ten thousand surnames, have that Li Xiang's idea behind it?" Can the shopkeeper tell me what's going on with Li Xiang? ”

Several commanders had already confessed, and people who couldn't stop them came to ask, so they told Li Xiang about the situation. The shopkeeper said in his heart that Li Xiang should not be blamed, so he told the truth about some news for the third time.

Chai Ningxin pinched her green fingers, and listened to the shopkeeper talk about Li Xiang, and her expression changed several times. Sometimes I can't laugh or cry, sometimes I think about it, and sometimes I appreciate it inexplicably.

When Princess An Ning left, she ordered three of the best charcoal stoves, as well as a hundred marching furnaces for Zhi Yanwen.

The shopkeeper and his companion stood in front of the shop, watched the princess walk away, and then went on to work. When no one was looking, one of the guys made sure that there was no one around, and then threw a small ball of paper at his feet......

Li Xiang had already left the team and hurried all the way with the guards. Externally, it is claimed to be infected, and can only stay in the carriage to keep it secret. With the cooperation of Liu Susu and others, Li Xiang's secret departure was enough to hide it from most people.

More than 30 personal guards, more than 20 of whom changed their clothes and dressed up as a businessman, drove the cart in front of the road, and constantly transmitted information to Zhang Qingping and Yang Yingdong.

Of these more than 20 people, half of them are long-term scouts, and a few are scouts in the army before Liu Chengdong went up the mountain. These people were divided into four groups, two groups were directly in front of Li Xiang, and the other two groups were on either side of Li Xiang. It can be seen from this that Li Xiang cherishes his own life.

Li Xiang, together with more than a dozen people including Zhang Qingping and Yang Yingdong, rode forward.

On the road, I met more than a dozen people, or even a small group of more than 100 people, and some of them wanted to come over to rob, but after seeing Li Xiang and his party closely, they all hid far away. A dozen knights, with weapons, are they easy to mess with?

Li Xiang hardened his heart and continued to move forward despite the pleas of the homeless people on the roadside, only hoping that the brigade behind him could save more people.

The Nanyang Basin, also known as the Nanyang-Xiangyang Basin, is the intersection of Guanzhong, Hanzhong, Sichuan, Shu, Jinghu and the Central Plains. In one sentence to describe the strategic position of the Nanyang Basin, that is, the east-west extension, the north-south convergence.

To the west of Nanyang Town, lies the Qinling-Daba Mountains. The north is Funiu Mountain, and the east is Tongbai Mountain and Qianli Huai Mountain, and Huai Mountain is called Dabie Mountain by Li Xiang. The Qinling Mountains blocked the severe cold in the north, the buses blocked the humid heat in the southwest, and the Tongbai Mountains protected the flanks of Nanyang.

Benefiting from the semi-enclosed terrain and developed water system, the Nanyang Plain has a pleasant climate and fertile land.

The cultivation and development of the Nanyang Basin began with the southern overlord of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Chu State.

In the early days of the Chu State, several discerning and ambitious monarchs preemptively occupied the land of Hanzhong and the Nanyang Plain, and immigrated to farm. While harvesting the two granaries, the state of Chu took advantage of the geographical advantage to once overwhelm the Central Plains, where the Guanzhong and Zhou royal families were located, and became the overlord of the south.

At that time, it is not an exaggeration to say that the state of Chu took advantage of the time and place. Greeting Jiuding in the Son of Heaven's family, Chu Guo is not arrogant, but really has that qualification.

However, the old-fashioned plot of unfilial piety was staged, and the state of Chu lost its people, and successively lost Hanzhong and Nanyang Basin. The loss of the Nanyang Basin completely ruined the hope of the Chu State to unify the world.

The Qin State suppressed the Chu State, and after the soldiers were sufficient, it was difficult to control it, and finally unified the world.

Nanyang is in the north, and Xiangyang is in the south, jointly controlling the Nanyang Plain. Since the Qin Dynasty, the forces of the north and the south have repeatedly clashed over this land. Which side occupies the entire Nanyang Plain, which side has the advantage in the situation in the Central Plains. If one side controls Nanyang and the other controls Xiangyang, there will be a confrontation.

At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the displaced people rose everywhere, and the giants were in turmoil.

A prince in Nanyang took advantage of the situation to clean up the mountains and rivers, and achieved a rare Zhongxing world. Nanyang scholars benefited a lot, and finally became famous in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the Three Kingdoms after that were no exception.

During the Three Kingdoms, several forces fought in Nanyang, Xiangyang, and even Jingzhou in the south of the Xiangyang Passage, just to fight for the land of Jingxiang. Jingxiang took advantage of the Great War in the north to absorb a large number of refugees and scholars, and under the governance of the local clans, it can be called a paradise in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms.

Meng Degong swept away the sons of Fa Xiao Yuan Shao, and hurried towards Jingxiang with a roar; Uncle Liu Huang borrowed Jingzhou, but he didn't plan to pay it back, and was thinking about borrowing Sichuan and Shu as a base; Occupying the land of Wu in the southeast, the new owner came to power, and he wanted to drive Uncle Liu Huang away so that he could monopolize Jingxiang.

In the end, Uncle Liu Huang ran to Sichuan to weave Shu brocade, and the Sun family pulled iron chains on the Yangtze River, but they did not escape the northern iron cavalry that occupied Jingxiang and Xuzhou.

Yongjia was in turmoil, the Central Plains was in turmoil, and the Southern Jin Dynasty had several northern expeditions.

Three routes of march, west out of Hanzhong, Sichuan, threatening Guanzhong and Longxi, this is the first. Take Nanyang in the middle and restore the ancient capital of Luoyang, this is the second article. Take Xuzhou in the east and go straight to Qilu, which is the third article. Of the three routes, the middle is the heaviest, and Nanyang is the most important.

Li Xiang recalled Nanyang's past, and came to Nanyang City with mixed feelings.

Nanyang Mansion City, the city wall is very high, more than ten meters. The walls were so thick that they could run horse-drawn carriages in parallel. The walls were so strong that there were many places where knives could not be inserted. Whether the knife can be inserted or not, Li Xiang doesn't know, he only knows that the city wall is grassy.

Funiu Mountain is like a giant beast, guarding Nanyang City. The afterglow of the setting sun stretched the figure of the centaurs, and Li Xiang stepped across the moat and came to Nanyang for the second time.

There are only more than ten people around Li Xiang, of course, he has to live in a better inn. The other guards in disguise stayed very close to Li Xiang.

Zhang Qingping, who has rich experience in the rivers and lakes, is warm with the people in the inn while observing possible threats. Yang Yingdong was careful, carefully inspected Li Xiang's room, and then lived next door to Li Xiang with Zhang Qingping.

Here in Nanyang, of course, there is a foothold of Mingyuezhuang, and it is a warehouse on the bright side.

The shopkeeper of the warehouse, a few years ago, his family was in trouble, and he accidentally lost a batch of goods from the owner, so he had to flee with his family.

Liu Sheng saw that the shopkeeper was honest and could do things, so he recommended it to the public middle school.

Shopkeeper Fang was valued by Li Mengkong, and soon came to Nanyang to serve as the warehouse manager.

Shopkeeper Fang received a letter, was shocked when he saw the seal, and came to the inn where Li Xiang was staying.

After being searched, the shopkeeper finally met the young owner and found that the owner was even younger than the image described by the owner.

Li Xiang motioned to the shopkeeper to sit down, took the household registration paper of the shopkeeper Fang, read the situation above, and attached a piece of paper underneath, which was from the hand of Zhao Bo, who was in charge of supervision.

Li Xiang glanced at the information a few times, and then at the shopkeeper Fang, frowning from time to time.

Shopkeeper Fang saw that in the corner, there was actually a figure in a black robe standing, and he chuckled in his heart. He didn't know that it was Cheng Jianghai, and thought it was those guys in the public school, and the secret passage was still discovered. "It's going to be over now, Mingyuezhuang doesn't implicate the family, and I don't know if it's true."

Seeing that the owner of the village glanced at the information from time to time, then glanced at himself, and frowned from time to time, the shopkeeper finally fell to the ground softly, "Owner, don't ask, say anything in the next place, and please let go of the small family in the next house." ”

Li Xiang slapped the two pieces of paper on the table, "How hard are you when you are the owner of this village?" Cooperate with those few restaurants to eat inside and out, and make a lot of money, right?! Shopkeeper Fang, the public has treated you badly, but why are you like this! ”

Shopkeeper Fang's eyes were dilated, and he took out a pile of Jiaozi from his sleeve tremblingly, "Owner, the money given to his subordinates by those families is here, and he doesn't dare to use it." ”

Li Xiang was stunned for a moment, how could he be so familiar with the style of the shopkeeper Fang?

Shaking his head, Li Xiang motioned to the two guards at the door, and the two young men pressed the shopkeeper to the stool, their faces full of contempt and disdain.

Li Xiang slowed down his tone, "How to collude with those people, how to resell secrets, how to escape the commission, how to eat inside and out, say it yourself." ”

Li Xiang was very disdainful of these bullshit, listened to his heart, and went to the back room.

Cheng Jianghai received Li Xiang's signal, put on a face towel, and said in a hoarse voice: "Cheng Shopkeeper, let's start." Remind you that when the owner comes back this time, he will implement some new regulations, and it is up to you whether you can reduce the punishment. ”

The shopkeeper Fang, who was already desperate, wiped away his tears when he heard the words, and began to pour beans into a bamboo tube, explaining his situation clearly from beginning to end.

In order to win Li Xiang's leniency, the shopkeeper Fang also added a self-analysis and named several people who were also suspicious. Although it was only suspicious, the shopkeeper Fang couldn't care about it in order to protect himself.

Cheng Jianghai was shocked.

The guy in front of him is clear and organized, so he doesn't need to mention it? This shopkeeper Fang, Fang Weixian, is really a talent!
