"Liu Biao is seriously ill, and he may have to die at any time, and Jingzhou will have a period of unstable handover of power. Although Sun Quan didn't beat Jiangxia and failed to touch Lao Cao's sensitive nerves, such an opportunity should not be let go of Lao Cao's personality. Looks like the storm is coming......"

Thinking about these things in his heart, Lu Ren instructed the people of the Mi clan to stop trading with Jingzhou, so as not to suffer unnecessary losses when they got it. Anyway, now that the trade route with the northern region has been opened, the Mi clan people have adjusted the caravan that originally ran Jingzhou to the northern region, and the benefits are still huge.

At the same time, Zhao Yu sent a telegram on the other end, saying that Zhao Yu had met a customer who was a little thorny, and it was said that he wanted to buy twenty large and medium-sized ships from Zhao Yu's hands in one go, which was almost one-third of the ships on hand by Zhao Yu, and the average customer was only able to buy three or five ships.

Because the amount was too large, Zhao Yu didn't dare to slack off, so he hurriedly telegraphed Lu Ren and asked Lu Ren what he meant. And when Lu Ren looked at the other party's name, his head was also a few circles bigger at that time, because it was none other than Sima Yi's wife Zhang Chunhua who was looking for Zhao Yu to buy a boat.

Zhang Chunhua came to Yizhou and talked about business with Lu Ren, and Sima Yi asked Cao Cao for the official position of Xuzhou Assassin, and in the past two years, he also relied on frequent trade with Yizhou to raise the economic index of Xuzhou a lot, and his political performance was very good. However, whether it is Lu Ren or Sima Yi, they all have their own corresponding concerns, so there has been no direct contact between Lu Ren and Sima Yi, and Zhang Chunhua has come out of everything for a while.

However, in general, the transaction volume between Yizhou and Xuzhou is not very large. And because of the power of a family on Sima Yi's side, Sima Yi can not only eat the commercial goods that have been trafficked in the past in the Yizhou area, but even can't eat at all. After tasting the sweetness, he wants to further expand his income, which is completely reasonable, and he used to be passive to receive, but now Lu Ren sells ships, with the skills of Sima Yi and Zhang Chunhua, he will naturally think of changing from passive to active, so it is normal for Zhang Chunhua to go to Zhao Yu to buy a ship.

But then again, although it is a good thing that Lu Ren's ships can be sold as soon as possible, Lu Ren always feels that there is something wrong with selling ships to Zhang Chunhua like this, but he can't say what is wrong. Later, after several considerations, Lu Ren's return call to Zhao Yu could only be sold to Zhang Chunhua, and no more than one could be given. If Zhang Chunhua asks the reason, let Zhao Yu make an excuse based on the situation over there. It's really not good, let's just say that Lu Ren wants to do business with many people, not just with his Sima family.

Zhang Chunhua's matter is like this for the time being.

(Sorry, Carvin, there are a few lines that are not straightened out...... Let's take a look at something else first, everyone's forgive me! ）

――――――――――――――――――――

"Oh, I'm so hungry......"

This sigh was made by the little beggar who had been driven away by a dog in the ancient town. And the little beggar at this time, his two little legs are shaking on the road, and I don't know whether he is tired or hungry, maybe it should be said that it is both.

After walking a little further and looking around, the little beggar wanted to cry, "Where have I run to?" This damn dog, I'm lost! When I find my way back to town, I don't think I'll make you into a dog meat pot...... Ouch no, when I think of the dog meat pot, my stomach is even hungrier......"

Physically and mentally exhausted and hungry, the little beggar's steps naturally stumbled. After walking out of the road again, the little beggar found a dilapidated and deserted temple, and he didn't know whether it was originally dedicated to the mountain god or the land lord. Looking up at the dim sky, the little beggar decided to settle down in this ruined temple tonight.

After entering the temple, he cleaned up haphazardly and then walked out of the temple gate, and the little beggar muttered to himself while looking around: "There are all forests around here, you should be able to find something to eat such as wild fruits, right?" Hurry up and look for it while it's still dark...... Alas, starve me to death! ”

The little beggar searched around the ruined temple and found a few wild fruits and some dry firewood. This little beggar, don't look at his young age, but he doesn't know a lot of things. He knew that in this kind of wilderness and forest, if he didn't raise a bonfire at night, maybe his body and bones, which were not more than a few pounds of flesh, would become the supper of the beasts in the forest. What do you look like you're so thin? It seems that wild beasts don't pick and choose their food. At this point, the beast had something in common with the little beggar, that is, it would be nice to have something to eat.

The little beggar was hungry, but unfortunately there was no pie in the sky. But under certain conditions......

"Huh? What is it? It seems to be ...... Sweet potato!? ”

What would be the reaction of a person who was already hungry to the point of hunger when he suddenly discovered food? Of course, there will be a pervert who has been locked up in prison for several years, and as soon as he is released, he meets a lone beauty in a no-man's land in the night, and then his eyes are green, and he uses a swift and fast hungry wolf to pounce on the beauty.

The little beggar was already hungry, so he pounced on the sweet potato and picked it up, wiped it a few times, and opened his mouth to bite it, not caring that there was still a lot of soil on the sweet potato. But when it came to his mouth, the little beggar stopped stiffly, and then frowned and pouted to himself: "I'm afraid that I won't be hungry if I gnaw it like this...... By the way, it seems that I saw an incense burner in the temple just now. ”

Three steps and two steps back to the broken temple, get the incense burner to the stream behind the temple and wash it to make a ready-made pot. He had already picked up a lot of firewood, and the flint was something that the little beggar had on his body. So it didn't take long for the sweet potatoes to be thrown into the boiling water.

After boiling for a while, the little beggar felt that the sweet potato had no reaction, so after thinking about it, he simply fished it out, grabbed a stone and smashed the sweet potato on the bluestone slab, and then threw it back into the incense burner. That's how it is to cook food, it's hard to boil the whole thing, but it's much easier to cook when it's broken. Besides, if you smash it like this, it will be a pot of gruel. Rather than eating dry, gruel may be able to eat more, which is why the little beggar did not eat dry at that time.

In this way, after the smashed sweet potato was put into the pot, it didn't take long for it to start emitting bursts of fragrance. The little beggar smelled a deep fragrance, and couldn't help but sigh from the bottom of his heart: "It's so fragrant...... It just doesn't seem to smell right, but sweet potatoes don't smell like this...... How does it feel like a medicinal fragrance? Could it be a yam on the mountain? But the smell is ...... Well, there shouldn't be any poison. Forget it, it's great to have a stomach, if you really want to do that, you can only clear your stomach. ”

――――――

"Huh? Where does this aroma come from? This aroma ...... That's right, it's the fragrance of Shou Wu! ”

In the forest not far from the broken temple, after Jiang You woke up, he followed the direction of the Shouwu essence being shocked and traced all the way to here. At this moment, Jiang You was injured and the true yuan was excessively depleted, and he was no longer able to explore the demonic breath of the Shouwu Spirit, and he was secretly anxious in his heart. But at this moment, Jiang You suddenly smelled the aroma wafting from the ruined temple, and after a little identification:

"The medicinal fragrance of this Wu, and the bloody breath hidden in the medicinal fragrance...... It must be the black spirit! That demon has relied on sucking **** essence blood to improve his cultivation, and after being beaten back to his original form by me before, although he gathered all the blood spirit true yuan to deal a resentful blow to me, so that his blood spirit true yuan that he had refined for many years dissipated, but his original form and true body will still leave a few bloody breaths that other Shouwu will not have...... Uh-huh? This, this kind of medicinal fragrance...... No way? Who is this? How do you cook the thousand-year-old shou wu like cabbage? ”

Smelling the thick medicine in the air again, Jiang You was really a little crying and laughing. Shou Wu, who has become a fine for thousands of years! No matter how harmful this black essence was before, but after being beaten back to its original form and the blood was dispersed, the original form of the first black essence was still a miraculous spiritual root medicine that could not be found, but now it was cooked as cabbage, and it was really violent enough.

Thinking about it again, Jiang You is sure that the person who is cooking the thousand-year-old shou wu as cabbage now must be a person who has no relevant knowledge. And as soon as he thought of this, Jiang Youzhi wanted to see what kind of guy this person who was boiling the thousand-year-old shou wu as cabbage.

As for snatching the thousand-year-old Shouwu for himself, Jiang Youzhi did not have such thoughts. In fact, Jiang You's people are weak and open-minded, and at this moment he also thinks that this person who is cooking thousands of black shou wu as cabbage, since he can get this thousand-year-old shou wu, it is a fate in itself. I want to see this person now, but it's just pure curiosity.

Isn't Jiang You afraid that that person will harm him? In fact, this is a manifestation of Jiang You's lack of experience in the rivers and lakes. If it is a person with more experience in the rivers and lakes, he may also guess whether the person who obtained this thousand-year-old shou wu will be an immortal cultivator or a martial arts practitioner, and then act carefully. But Jiang You was traveling out of the mountains for the first time this time, and he didn't have much defense at all, so he thought about it together, regardless of the injuries on his body and the fact that Zhenyuan had not recovered, and slowly approached the broken temple with a branch.

Fortunately, Jiang You was not really that stupid, and he would recklessly break into the broken temple, but after approaching the broken temple, he held his breath and looked into the broken temple from the window. The original intention was to see what kind of guy the person who boiled the shou wu essence looked like and left, but when Jiang You really saw that it was a skinny little beggar with a yellow face and thin muscles who was cooking the shou wu essence, Jiang You was stunned, and then he hurriedly and carefully dried the little beggar.

At this moment, the little beggar was holding a branch and stirring it in the incense burner, hoping to cool the pot of freshly cooked "sweet potato" gruel as soon as possible, not knowing that someone outside the temple was quietly drying him. After stirring a few more times, the little beggar looked at the "sweet potato" gruel that had been completely boiled in the incense burner, first smelled the aroma of the gruel greedily, and sighed very intoxicatedly: "I endure it!" Just bear with it a little longer! You'll be able to eat it in no time! (To be continued.) )
