Chapter Twenty-Five: Like a World Away

A small table, a bowl of tea, some boiled tofu mixed with cabbage, the preparation is very simple, but Yuan Yun believes that the old man Zheng Xuan must be very happy, today's sky is exceptionally clear, it is a good season for harvest, at this time in previous years, Zheng Xuan must have already begun to busy his experimental fields, and now he can only lie quietly under this loess.

Before Yuan Yun spoke, he calculated the time in his heart, it had been seven years since Zheng Xuan was buried, and many things could be recalled very clearly.

And Luoyang is the same, in the past seven years, the development has been more rapid, and now it has become a huge international city, in addition to the Han people, there are many people from thousands of miles to all kinds of foreign races, Yuan Yun even received a Greek guest at home, this guest only said that his hometown is now in turmoil, all kinds of warlords usurped power, making the people miserable.

And the world is peaceful also after a full seven years, under the administration of Cao Cao, the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty finally restored some of the original vitality, there is no war, the productive forces have soon been greatly developed, especially in Luoyang technology gradually popularized, from the north to the south quickly solved most of the food crisis.

If the food is solved, it will naturally give rise to population growth, so now the world finally has a little bit of the prototype of a prosperous era, and the only thing that is still hindering this development is those big families, who rely on their big family and big business, and can still influence a lot of local resources, resulting in the policy of the imperial court is still not consistent to the end.

But even so, the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty is still prosperous, at least everyone has food, clothing, and no longer have to fight for a certain monarch, it is an era that is much better than in the past.

Cao Cao definitely thought that he was a very diligent person, whether it was policy or military, he grasped both very well, after the agriculture in the Central Plains was restored again, the country got a stable environment, as for those who were still full of ambition in their hearts, or wanted to fight, they were all sent to the periphery, especially in the direction of the Western Regions.

Such an arrangement directly led to the collapse of the small countries in the Western Regions, those generals who experienced the war in the Central Plains were not civilized Confucians, they did everything with interests in mind, and there was only one way to solve it, that is, let the army enter the city, and then pat the head of the other king to sign various treaties.

With the support of the monster of Luoyang, these military forces that developed to the Western Regions immediately had a lot of weapons that exceeded this era, and under such force, where were the Hu people who were become barbarians opponents, so in the past seven years, not only the Hexi Corridor has been recovered, but some fanatics even arrived at the Kushan Empire with iron horses, which is the location of modern India.

The war of aggression against foreign countries will naturally bring various benefits to the country, and some scarce resources in the Central Plains have also been plundered back in the past seven years, which is why Luoyang and Chang'an have achieved such huge development.

Suddenly, a gust of majesty swept by, Yuan Yun stopped talking slightly, just chattering and talking, a pot of tea soon bottomed out, when Xiaoliu went to prepare new tea, Yuan Yun looked into the distance, Zheng Xuan's grave was built on the side of the peak of the academy, from here you can look down on the entire Luoyang City, but when Zheng Xuan was alive, you can also see the whole picture, but now you can only see a foot of the whole city, you can think about the development scale of Luoyang over the years.

"Lord, it's not too early, we should also return to Luoyang City, there is an important meeting for Prince Cao Ang this afternoon." Although Xiao Liu took the teapot, he didn't plan to fill it with new water, but reminded Yuan Yun in a low voice.

Yuan Yun glanced at Xiao Liu a little when he heard this, this young man at the beginning, now he has also grown a beard, and his body is a little more majestic, as for the other guard Shi Shen, this will have become the big dart master of the Yuan Mansion in the Western Regions, and now the caravans in the Central Plains that want to trade there need his dart bureau to come forward to protect, and only if Shi Shen is there, it is very important in the Western Regions, because the Western Regions Protectorate is now Xiahoudun, relying on the relationship between Yuan's Mansion and Xiahoudun, he naturally eats and drinks spicy food there.

With a smile, Yuan Yuncai nodded and said, "Today is Zheng Xuan's death day, and we have already occupied the memorial time of other people's families, so it is indeed time to leave earlier, so as not to be anti-guest-oriented." ”

Xiao Liu couldn't help frowning when he heard Yuan Yun say this, and then sighed: "Let them together, but the current head of their family has no courage at all, he insists on hiding five hundred steps away, it is really useless, how majestic the old man Zheng Xuan was at the beginning, but the grandson is so cowardly." ”

The housekeeper Zhang Xiang immediately smiled and comforted: "The head of our family is now a well-known figure in the world, and Zheng Xuan's descendants should be in awe, and the little sixth brother doesn't have to be too stubborn." ”

After Zhang Xiang finished saying this, he immediately bowed his hand to this Yuan Yun and said, "The head of the family should return to Luoyang this morning, and the aftermath here will be handed over to the little one." ”

Yuan Yun nodded with satisfaction, then got up and patted the dirt on his body, and began to walk towards the frame, Xiao Liu had already taken the lead in the driving position, although so many years have passed, his status in the Yuan Mansion has long been different, but he has never been willing to hand over such a thing as a car.

When the frame began to move, Cao Chong woke up from his sleep, and when he opened his eyes, he immediately saw Yuan Yun, and immediately said unhappily: "Brother-in-law came so far early in the morning, it is really a waste of time, it is better to sleep at home for a while if you have this effort." ”

Yuan Yun heard Cao Chong say this, so he turned his eyes back from the car window, then shook his head and smiled: "I told you not to come with me, you have to think that I am going to do something fun, and now I feel bored and blamed whoever comes, this is called deserved." ”

Now Cao Chong has also grown a beard, and he has changed from a young man to a humble gentleman, but his dark eyes make people look a little depressed.

After rummaging in the frame for a while, he finally found a bottle of delicious osmanthus brew, Cao Chong said while drinking: "Today, Sima Yi plans to prevent us from moving the workshop outside the city, does my brother-in-law have a countermeasure to this?" ”

Yuan Yun shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then listen to him, if you don't move, you won't move, but we also have to put forward one condition, that is, everyone in the Sima family must move to live around the workshop." ”

Cao Chong was stunned when he heard this, and laughed in an instant, and only gasped for a long time before he gasped: "Brother-in-law's trick is vicious, now the environment of the workshop and factory is almost breathless, those chimneys are about to catch up with the big trees of the primeval jungle, if Sima Yi moves to live there, we don't need to do it, he will be smoked to death sooner or later, haha, this plan is very good, just do what my brother-in-law said, let's not speak, when he mentions this matter, I will let him move to the workshop area to live, and I will see how he responds when the time comes." ”

Yuan Yun saw that Cao Chong had finally finished speaking, so he changed the topic and said, "Cao Zhang, can't stop a point?" Now that Sanhan has been beaten and is about to be wiped out, let him stop a little, that broken place has no property, even if it grows food, it is not a good land, it is not good to continue to go deeper, let him gather the troops, and think more about the Karasuma people, these people are now trading with us, they are already very fat lambs, I don't want these lambs to become jackals, it's time to go and beat them. ”

Cao Chong smiled and said, "Brother Cao Zhang thinks the same as us, and I also think that it is not interesting to continue tossing on that peninsula, so I plan to start moving north to meet those arrogant Karasuma leaders, they don't often boast about how many Han slaves they raised at home back then, Brother Cao Zhang is going to arrest their tribal leader, and then raise them at home as slaves and maids." ”

Yuan Yun nodded, and continued: "In this battle, Mr. Kong Ming said, we must fight quickly, and slaughter as many disobedient Karasuma tribes as possible before the final battle edict of the imperial court comes down, so that these barbarians can continue to fear us." ”

Cao Chong snorted and said: "This is natural, the tanks I invented are much more tattered than those built by my brother-in-law back then, and those horses of the Karasuma people are not opponents at all, and they want to escape the pursuit of my tanks, unless they can fly ......"

Speaking of the word "flying", Cao Chong didn't suddenly twist into a ball, and after a long time, he glared at Yuan Yun very uncomfortably: "Brother-in-law knows how the so-called plane was built at a glance, why don't you tell me directly, isn't it a waste of time to let me think about it myself?" ”

Yuan Yun smiled bitterly and said, "You just said that your brother-in-law and I made all the rags, and now you will smoke your own mouth, you are really getting more and more shameless, I have deliberately let you study by yourself all these years, and you don't have some gains?" Now what you have in your hands is your own Cao Chong, if I help you do it, in the end these things are still your brother-in-law mine, if you don't mind, I will draw the drawings of this plane myself. ”

Cao Chong's whole body trembled when he heard this, and he hurriedly stopped: "Don't don't, brother-in-law, you should continue to accompany my nephews and nieces at home, just let me do this kind of rough work." ”

After speaking, Cao Chong glanced at Yuan Yun again, afraid that the other party would regret it, so he immediately changed the topic and said: "Why is my little nephew Cao Rong so bad at mathematics, some simple formulas can't be calculated, it's just a copy of my sister-in-law, shameful." ”

Yuan Yun smiled bitterly again: "Cao Ei is the best candidate for the Son of Heaven in the future, who said that the Son of Heaven must be able to advanced mathematics, now he prefers to study management with the old man Jia Xu, it can be seen that his ambition is not like you Cao Chong, and the world really needs to cultivate people like Cao Ei in the future, rather than a mathematician." ”

Cao Chong nodded when he heard this, and said: "Our Cao family really has all kinds of talents, Brother Cao Ang is good at using people to manage, Brother Cao Zhang is the best at fighting, Brother Cao Zhi is powerful, and he is romantic, and now he and Guo Jiajun are known as the two heroes of Qinglou, and those sisters-in-law and mother-in-law see the two of them, just like a bee seeing honey, it makes people envy when they look at it." ”

As soon as Yuan Yun heard this, the corners of his mouth immediately twitched twice, if the old and the young were placed in modern society, they would almost be star-like existences, and the women to be married in every household in Luoyang today would dream of him almost day and night, and they all became brainless fans.

"Let Cao Zhi be more restrained, I won't say anything about him and the women in the Qinglou, but don't always provoke some women from officials' families, especially the daughters of other people's families who have not been out of the cabinet." Yuan Yun finally explained, then patted the compartment of the frame and began to urge Xiao Liu to speed up.

A large road stretches straight out, with only Yuan Yun in the middle, and a hundred and ten guards on horseback following on both sides, and in addition to this road, there are more extending not far away, as if a large net is spread over this land, and countless trucks, horses, and crowds walk in it......
