Two thousand years later, in the era in which Liu Kan lived in his previous life, there was a city named Luzhou at the geographical coordinates of 27 degrees 39 to 29 degrees 20 north latitude and 105 degrees 0841 to 106 degrees 28 east longitude.

In the Xia and Shang periods, it belonged to the rule of Liangzhou and was named Ba in the Zhou Dynasty.

In the fifth year of King Shenliang of Zhou, that is, in 316 BC, about 99 years before Liu Kan now said that he lived, King Huiwen of Qin sent Zhang Yi and Sima Cuo to capture Bashu and set up Bajun in the same year. At the same time, a small city called Jiangyang quietly formed.

This Jiangyang is the Luzhou of later generations.

This place is the junction of the southern end of the parallel folded ridge valley area in the southeast of Sichuan and the Da Lou Mountain.

At the same time, it is also the transition zone from the southern margin of the Sichuan Basin to the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, which has the geomorphological characteristics of both the hills around the basin and the mountains around the basin. The south is high and the north is low, with the river water as the erosion datum, and it is inclined from south to north.

It is bounded by the line of Jiang'an-Naxi-Hejiang, with medium and low mountains on the south side and hilly terrain on the north.

Some people may say, why did Liu Kan know such a place? The reason is very simple, because in Liu Kan's previous life, among the many liquors, he loved Luzhou Laojiao, and at the same time lived in Sichuan for many years, and his footprints can be said to be all over the entire Sichuan Basin.

(Well, I'll admit it...... Yes, I like to drink Luzhou)

Lu Guang's eyes widened, and he looked at Liu Kan with some shock, his small mouth opened slightly, and it took a long time before he said, "Ah Kan, you want to send the flower carving to Shuzhong?" ”

Take a deep breath. Said loudly: "No, I don't agree!" ”

The voice was a little louder, which scared Lu Shizhi and Wang Xin, who were waiting at the door to be summoned.

"Brother Kan and my sister are quarreling!"

Lu Shizhi immediately reacted and pushed Wang Xin, "Xin, hurry up and find your aunt and them......

At the same time, I was also muttering in my heart: Huadiao is Brother Kan's source of wealth, why should he move it to Shuzhong? Isn't it cut off from your own wealth? However, since Brother Kan escaped from death, he has been very clever. It's almost time to catch up with me. He must have a reason for doing so.

Sticking to the door, Lu Shizhi listened.

Liu Kan had already guessed that Lu would definitely have such a violent reaction, so he was not in a hurry, but pulled her to sit down and poured her a glass of water.

"I know that you will certainly object; And I also know that even his brother will not agree for a while. Pander to. Herein lies the problem...... What you see is in front of you, and his brother may see farther than you, but he is only limited to this cup. You know what I mean? ”

Liu Kan took two bronze knights, one in front of Lu, and the other a little farther away.

Lu looked at Liu Kan suspiciously, but did not refute.

"But I ......," Liu Kan said with a deep breath, "but my eyes must be fixed there." Liu Kan said, pointing with his hand to the dozen bronze lords on the other table. Ah, are you satisfied with our current life? ”

Lu nodded lightly, "Of course I'm satisfied!" ”

"But if I tell you that in a few years, maybe a dozen years, this prosperity in front of us may be in ruins, can you believe it?"

"Huh?"

"Five hundred years of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, to today's situation. There are 27 million people in Great Qin

But what would you think if I told you that in 10 years, or 20 years, maybe less than 20 million, or even less? ”

Liu Kan's sudden words made Lu's face turn pale.

"Akan, what do you mean by that?"

Liu Kan closed his eyes and was silent for a long time, "Ah." Do you remember when we fled from our single father and were ambushed while passing through Surabaya? ”

Lu nodded, got up suddenly, pushed open the door, and just saw Lu Shizhi lying on the edge of the door.

"Shizhi, go outside and keep an eye on it, someone is coming. Notify me immediately. ”

Lu Shizhi was reluctant. But when he saw the cold glint in Lu Na's eyes, he shuddered. Turn around and obediently leave.

At this moment, the second sister is really similar to the eldest sister.

"Akan, you go on."

Liu Kan smiled slightly and said softly: "That day, I had a dream. I dreamed of a fire all over the sky, there were wars everywhere, the Black Dragon Banner was trampled on, and the gorgeous houses collapsed one after another...... When I woke up, I understood! That Black Dragon Flag, could it be......

Since that day, I have been living in a state of trepidation.

Even if I make wine to make money, even if I kill people, even if I become an official...... But this feeling of uneasiness is getting heavier and heavier.

O you and I are one, one family...... I don't want to hide anything from you.

If Great Qin is gone, and I am an old Qin person, and my hands are stained with the blood of the descendants of the Six Kingdoms, what do you think will happen? ”

Lu didn't answer, and he didn't need to answer.

Because the answer is very clear: if such a thing really happens, then Liu Kan, and all the people around Liu Kan, will be unlucky.

"I'm trying my best to climb up, hoping to accumulate enough strength to protect you, my mother, and everyone around me before troubled times come. If it's just a dream, that's fine. But what if not? ”

"Akan ......"

Liu Kan stretched out his hand to cover Lu's mouth, shook his head lightly and said, "You listen to me...... Ah, we may look beautiful now, but when troubled times come, our scenery is not at all. Although Chu has three households, the death of Qin will be Chu. If chaos really happens, then Surabaya County will become the main battlefield, and everything you and I have will be burned to the ground. Lu's face was pale, and his delicate body was trembling slightly.

"Loucang, the ear of the projectile." Liu Kan said softly: "If troubled times really come. If we want to survive in the troubled times, we can only make ourselves strong as soon as possible. I don't know how much time I have left, but I have a vague feeling that it won't be too far away.

I am now a cangling, and I enjoy the fourth class.

It may be extremely noble in the eyes of ordinary people, but in reality? You and I both know it, it's not worth mentioning.

I need to climb faster, and I need a stronger partner to help me. to promote me...... The Bashu Qin family is very suitable.

Moreover, his brother's wine shop seems to be very prosperous now, but after the arrival of troubled times, I am afraid that it will be difficult to preserve.

This is our vitality, and we can't lose it. Therefore, I want to send the flower carving into Shuzhong. Shuzhong has its own method of brewing wine, and its specialty Baxiang sake used to be the sacrificial tribute wine of the Great Zhou Dynasty. And even before that. Ba Xiangqing is still Lao Qin's tribute wine, if I didn't brew Banzai wine, I'm afraid it would still be the case now. I sent the flower carving to Bashu, on the one hand, I can let the flower carving continue to exist.

On the other hand, it is also connected with Bashu.

It seems like I've given up a lot, but I've actually gained a lot more. At least, under the current circumstances, with the prestige of the Qin family. With Qinjiadi's connections, it will bring me more wealth. Of course, this is not what I think, what I value is the forces behind the Qin family.

Ah, I know that at first glance, you may not be able to accept this.

But if you are willing to give up, you can only have it if you are willing to give it...... We give up today precisely to get more in the future. Please understand me. ”

Lu nodded......

Just as she was about to speak, she heard a calm voice outside the door.

"Ah Kan, my mother supports you!"

Before the words fell, Mrs. Kan walked in with Liu Judi's support. There was a heartfelt smile on her face.

"For a long time, my mother has been worried, worried that you have been smooth sailing in the past two years, and worried that you will be dissolute because of the scenery.

I heard you say these things today. My mother was so happy.

My son understands the truth of being born in adversity and dying in peace, and our old Liu family will not be bad. If your dad is here, it will be higher

There is a giveaway...... Ah Kan, that's a good thing, that's a good thing! ”

Liu Ju also grinned and smirked. "Brother. I also support you. Whoever dares to touch you, I tore him. ”

Liu Kan and Lu stood up. called out in unison. But after hearing Mrs. Kan's words, Liu Kan's heart surged with a warm current. He nodded slightly, "Mother, don't worry...... Children will never get carried away, they will be small

"Bajun, I've heard of it."

Mrs. Kan said in a deep voice: "If it is really as you said, there will be troubled times, it is a good place to go." When my mother was young, I had heard someone say that Meng Weijun was cunning and rabbit in the three holes. Now that I think about it, Ah Kan, you are planning for a rainy day, and it is not inappropriate to use this plan.

Bajun can be a cave, and the warehouse is your root.

As for Pei County...... To tell the truth, whether it is you or Adi's family, the foundation there is not very deep, it is better to open up another land as a place for you to start your business. I didn't agree with the matter of boiling the sea at the east gate. But listening to what you just said, it can be a channel to build a foundation. It's in the middle of nowhere, and it's hard to get into the eyes of others, so you can take it. ”

Most of the time, Mrs. Kan gave Liu Kan the impression that she was an old woman who followed the rules.

But at this moment, Mrs. Kan talked eloquently, quite instructively, which also made Liu Kan and Lu have to be impressed.

Mrs. Kan smiled: "Don't look at me like that. When I didn't marry your father, my mother was also a talented girl in the Luoyang area, and she had read a lot of books and heard a lot of things. ”

As he spoke, he had an old appearance, and a blush appeared.

Liu Kan glanced at Lu, and then said: "Ah, you go and tell Shi Zhi to let him go back to Pei County overnight, and after seeing the trial, let his brother and Wu Xian immediately leave Pei County, and turn with me in Tan County...... Well, let Shi Zhi also go to Tan County to meet. ”

Lu nodded, walked out Liu Juhan nodded, and went out with Lu as well.

"Piggy, remember for me. After arriving in Pei County, you are not allowed to go home, and you are not allowed to talk to anyone. When he saw him, he immediately went with them.

Do not let the word out what you have heard today.

If you let me know the slightest rumor, whether you said it or not, I won't spare you, do you understand? ”

In front of the official office, Lu Han stared at Lu Shizhi with a cold face.

Little pig is Lu Shizhi's nickname. Lu Shizhi nodded vigorously. "Second sister, don't worry, I won't say anything to anyone, even my father and mother."

"Hurry up."

Lu Shizhi responded, took a horse, whipped the horse and left.

Lu let out a sigh of relief on the steps of the official office. In the room just now, the words Liu Kan said made her still dizzy.

The cold wind blew through her, which more or less sobered her up.

Keep your head up. Looking at the starry night sky, the corners of Lu's mouth suddenly curled: Eldest sister, you really didn't see the wrong person, Ah Kan...... Not mortal.

Lu Shizhi came out.

Liu Kan and Mrs. Kan were still sitting in the room.

It's just that the atmosphere is much duller than just now. No matter how exciting what I just said, it doesn't matter if it's Mrs. Kan or Liu Kan. It's not the kind of person who rushes forward with his head covered when his blood surges. On the contrary, they know how difficult the road is.

"Mother, the child is going to borrow the banner of the Qin family to form a private army in the East China Sea, what do you think?"

Mrs. Kan nodded slightly, "Of course this is a good idea...... But the question is, can you hide it from the Qin family? They can get to where they are today. It's not just an ordinary person. Perhaps, if you can see the problem, they can also see it, and you can't be unguarded. ”

"Understood, child!"

After discussing with Mrs. Kan for a whole night, Liu Kan already had a rough plan in his heart.

Three days and days have passed in a flash, and it seems that it is the day when Qin Man agreed to set off.

this day. Liu Kan sorted out his equipment, wearing leather armor inside and a robe outside. Wang Xin led two horses, one was Liu Kan's red rabbit. When Yingzhuang returned to Xiangxian and moved from Xu County to Loucang, he asked Shao Ping to send Liu Kan sixty Qiang horses from the Western Regions.

Compared with the horses in Liu Kanlang's earlier days, Yingzhuang's shot is naturally extraordinary.

The reason why I gave these gifts. Yingzhuang has his own considerations. One. Liu Kan will be in charge of the grain road on the front line of Loucang and Huaihan, and the land really needs war horses to support it; Second. Yingzhuang also really values Liu Kan very much, and hopes to use this war horse to bring the relationship between them closer.

The weight of the warehouse is also the weight of Surabaya!

Of course, these sixty Qiang horses in the Western Regions naturally cannot be compared with Chitu.

Liu Kan allocated fifty horses to the infant and asked him to form a cavalry army. It is not easy to organize a cavalry army...... War horses are the key, and there must be people who are skilled in riding. It takes time, and it doesn't happen overnight. Liu Kan was not very anxious.

Of course, he still has a killer move, and he won't use it until the critical time.

Just as Liu Kan was preparing, Qin Man led a team of escorts and came from afar.

Unlike everyone's ladies, Qin Man is also a horseback rider, and he seems to be very superb in riding. It's still the dress I saw that day, with green clothes and green jackets, but there is an extra bronze light armor on my body. Show the bun, black ribbon wipe the forehead. On the saddle, there was a copper rod horizontally, and a short sword at the waist. Black ground cloak, hunting and moving. **A white horse is indeed a sassy and heroic posture.

When the escort was still three hundred paces away from the official office, they all stopped with a brush.

Qin Man urged the horse to come to Liu Kan and bowed slightly, "My lord, have you ever thought of an answer?" ”

Liu Kan raised his head and smiled calmly, "Three days ago, Liu had already given the answer. I just don't know, can Miss Man be satisfied? ”

To deal with this kind of woman whose heart is higher than the sky, you must be more proud and more confident than her.

A hint of banter flashed in Qin Man's eyes, and he said softly: "Since Man left Sichuan, he has never seen anyone as arrogant as an adult.

The answer given by the adults is very interesting.

But whether he can satisfy his ancestors in the end, Man will not know until he reports it.

However, seeing that the adult's answer is so interesting, Man is very curious, where does the adult's confidence come from?

In this way, if you are interested, you may wish to follow me to the East Gate Que first. However, Man did not dare to guarantee that the ancestor would agree to cooperate with the adults. ”

"I want to ...... The elders will agree! ”

After Liu Kan finished speaking, he turned over and got on his horse, "Miss Man, please go first." ”

Today's first update is presented.
