As he spoke, Cai Dao pointed to the Philippines in the later generations, as well as all the islands between the Asian continent and the Australian continent.

"If you look closely, it is not difficult to see that in the picture drawn by Poor Dao, in the waters of the South China Sea, there are already seven or eight islands that are no less than the area of the main island of the Japanese Kingdom, and the area of four of the large islands is much larger than the area of the main island of the Japanese Kingdom. The principle is first-come, first-served, and if it is the same island, the actual area occupied by the other party is required. The people under the poor road have inquired clearly, and there are also natives on these islands. ”

After speaking, Cai Dao automatically quietly stepped aside, because almost all the young people on the second floor were gathered in front of the map in the center, and the discussion was so lively.

Only that Yang Huaiwen did not go to join in the fun, but walked in front of Cai Dao, respectfully bowed to him, and said: "Cai Daochang, in order to revive the family business, students are willing to work under your command. ”

Cai Dao is naturally satisfied with the other party's attitude, and it is commendable to be able to let go of the face of the so-called family, and also in front of his peers! In his opinion, Yang Huaiwen has made up his mind to change himself.

However, Cai Dao was not in a hurry to agree, starved to death and said his request, and said, "It's not impossible to accept your subordinate." However, you have to abide by the three rules laid down by the Poor Way. How is it? ”

"Daochang Cai, don't say it's three requirements, it's thirty, and the students must try to do it." Yang Huaiwen replied categorically.

"Hmmm! Don't talk too much, listen to the poor Tao first, and it's not too late for you to agree. ”

"First, don't call yourself a student in front of others in the future. With your conditions and qualifications, whether you will grow into a strategist like Zhang Liang and Chen Ping, or a ruler like Xiao He, here in the poor road, depends on your own creation and efforts. platform, poor road can be given to you. However, if you don't work hard yourself, there are countless people around you, and you may take your place at any time.

And remember that having enough ability is not the most important thing, the key is whether your own heart and your actions are the same as hard work.

Second, there is no shortage of Confucian scholars here, and there is no support for those simple Confucian scholars who can only do it. Poor Dao knows that next year will be the year of the imperial examination, if you still want to fight, after the exam, you don't want to come to Poor Dao.

Third, the most important thing here is the rules, meritorious deeds must be rewarded, mistakes must be punished, and decisions will not be favoritism. Therefore, you have to be accurate, and if you work under the poor way, it will be much more difficult than if you study at home.

In the end, Poor Dao naturally admires the bravery of the three generals of your Yang family, and does not want to see the famous generals family fall. In your Yang family, your uncles, nephews, cousins and cousins can all come to work under me. Forget about the son-in-law of the lord, if any of the sons-in-law is willing to give up the title and follow the poor road, the poor road is not impossible to consider. By the way, the women of the Yang family can also do it, and the younger ones can study in the school opened by the poor road in the future. ”

"Thank you, Daoist Cai!" Hearing this, Yang Huaiwen's face was overjoyed, since he had already decided to take refuge in Cai Dao, he naturally would not go to the imperial examination half-heartedly. And Cai Dao's sudden release of kindness to the Yang family also made him ecstatic. He knew very well that there were too many people who wanted to question or Cai Dao, but in the end, these people were either slapped in the face and hurt a lot, or they pretended to trap themselves.

At this moment, someone suddenly spoke on the third floor of the alum building, only to hear someone shouting: "Hu'er, you bring the map to the third floor, Daochang Cai, you and Dean should also come up together!" Others can stay if they want to stay, and if they don't want to stay, they can leave. But you don't have to come up with it. ”

Cao Hu was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly got rid of the Xibei boy beside him, and carried the cowhide map and the wooden shelf to the third floor together. After seeing it on the side, Dean quickly stepped forward to take over the map, he was afraid that Cao Hu would not be able to restrain his strength in the process of exerting his strength, and the map drawn by Cai Dao would be damaged.

Seeing that the three mermaids went up to the third floor, the Xibei boy was so angry that he stomped his feet and muttered in his mouth: "These old immortal things, I don't know how to hand over this son together, it's really damned." ”

The other people on the second floor obviously also recognized this Northwest Cao Gongzi, and they all stayed away from her. Looking at them, it's like seeing a flood of beasts.

Xibei Cao Gongzi's muttering voice was not small at all, anyway, Cai Dao could still hear his complaints on the third floor.

But most of the people on the third floor are martial artists, and a few of them are Taoist monks like Cai Dao, such as Uncle Cao Guo. These people are all old and sophisticated, and the faces of the warriors have always been much thicker than those of the scribes. Therefore, they all heard the complaint of the prince Xibei, but it can be said that no one took it seriously.

Cao Hu and Dean were both less powerful, and the two of them quickly put the wooden frame and map in place, and the heads of the families on the third floor approached one after another and looked at it carefully. While looking at the map and corroborating the rumors he had heard from the overseas merchants, they whispered to each other about their opinions and thoughts.

In this gap, Cai Dao sat next to Uncle Cao Guo and drank a cup of tea he brought.

Traveling to the Great Song Dynasty for more than ten years, Cai Dao still can't get used to drinking tea soup with those seasonings and grinding into powder. Uncle Cao Guo's tea is naturally the same as Cai Dao's, since Cai Dao sent some tea to Uncle Cao Guo, this old man has completely fallen in love with this kind of tea fried in Cai Dao's hometown.

That is, Cai Dao's kung fu after drinking a cup of tea,

"Dao'er, is this map you drew real?" Cao Ping asked, this is the head of the Cao family, the eldest son of Uncle Cao Guo, and the father of Cao Hu. The relationship between the two is actually not very good, but on the orders of Uncle Cao Guo, it was Cao Ping and Cai Dao who negotiated the exchange of land.

Cai Dao naturally gave an affirmative answer: "Naturally, it's true, what's the benefit of poor Dao deceiving you?" What's more, not a single cent of the land handed over by your families will go to the pockets of the poor. If you don't want to go overseas, you can completely replace the land in the south. Besides, with the prestige and merits of your Cao family, the official family will definitely not treat you badly. ”

"However, at the bottom, there is one thing that Poor Dao has not had time to explain. Fighting a war has always meant death, and the islands in the south are relatively sparsely populated, but the situation above is also quite complicated. For example, these islands are densely forested, and the miasma of Lingnan naturally exists here. When Guo Kui went on an expedition to Da Yue Kingdom, less than one percent of his soldiers actually died in the war, but more than half of the soldiers died under the weather and diseases of Da Yue Kingdom. After Cai Dao finished speaking, he carefully observed the expressions of these family heads.

Sure enough, as a result of Cai Dao's observation, these family heads could be said to have not been frightened by the threat in his words at all.

Cai Dao can also understand this. The generals of the Great Song Dynasty led the troops, and the civil officials behind them were under the control of grain and grass, and there were eunuchs or civil officials around them as supervisors, monitoring their every move.
