Director Gao reported: "The subordinates got the news that Yuan Shuzhong had betrayed his relatives and left, and the soldiers were exhausted, and they would get up and go to Qingzhou in the near future." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

Liu Yong secretly wondered in his heart, this news is extremely confidential, how did you know? He pretended to say, "Is this news reliable?" Could it be that Shouchun also has our fine work? ”

"Not really, but the news shouldn't be wrong." Director Gao's words were convincing, and he explained, "The subordinates have a great friendship with Liu's cousin-in-law and military advisor Cai Mao, which is said from his mouth. Moreover, Yuan Shu's life and death have nothing to do with Jingzhou, and Cai Mao has no reason to deceive his subordinates. ”

Liu Yong nodded and said, "Since what Cai Mao said, there should be no falsehood." He smiled again: "To be able to catch Cai Mao's line, I'm afraid that Director Gao didn't put a lot of thought into it, right?" ”

Director Gao also smiled: "Now that Liu Biao is old, most of the things in the state are entrusted to Cai Mao. Cai Mao's new second concubine is extremely loved. His subordinates offered soap, porcelain and other things as gifts, and Cai Mao gladly accepted them. Then, Cai Mao sent a message to his subordinates to open up the business of his subordinates and take more care of them. His subordinates also looked for opportunities to send some rare antiques and jewelry from time to time, and Cai Mao was even more pleased, treating his subordinates as confidants, and often drinking and chatting together. The news was uttered after drinking. ”

Liu Yong laughed and praised: "Director Gao, your money is worth it!" He added, "Director Gao, you must remember not to take the initiative to inquire about the news, Cai Mao is not an ordinary person, be careful not to let him be suspicious and affect his own safety." ”

Director Gao was moved in his heart, bowed down and said, "Thank you Gongzi for reminding me, my subordinates know." ”

Liu Yong patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be in a hurry about anything. As long as this relationship is there, there is always a chance; If Cai Mao is vigilant, then all the work has been wasted. "Liu Yong knows that people like Director Gao and Song Jiu who were once on the verge of despair are grateful for their kindness to their lives, and they always want to repay the favor as soon as possible, which is extremely dangerous, so they have to be reminded again." You all have to grasp the principle that safety should come first at all times. Know that your life is not only your own, but also your family's. I don't want to. You don't need to have the idea of repaying the favor. ”

Director Gao had tears in his eyes and said in a trembling voice: "What the son said, my subordinates have remembered it." His subordinates have never used Cai Mao's words. ”

Liu Yong nodded and said, "That's good." ”

Master Gao suddenly said: "Son, one day Cai Mao talked about something in her indignation. I don't know if it's useful? ”

"Master Gao, please speak!"

Liu Biao's ex-wife died early and had two sons, the eldest son Liu Qi and the second son Liu Cong, and the wife who remarried was Cai Mao's second sister, but she never came out again. Mrs. Cai loves her second son, Liu Cong. took his niece Xu Zhi as his wife, and wanted to move Liu Biao to hand over the foundation to Liu Cong. Although Liu Biao dotes on Mrs. Cai, he is worried that the situation will be turbulent due to the 'abolition of the elder and the young', so he has always refused to agree. Now that the two brothers are fighting openly and secretly, there will be trouble in the land of Jingzhou sooner or later. ”

Liu Yong Zhengse said: "This matter is extremely important, and Director Gao has bothered about it. But as long as Liu Biao is alive, Jingzhou will be fine, so there is no need to worry. Now the most important thing is the matter of Yuan Shu......" Liu Yong pondered for a moment, and then sighed lightly: "In this way, I can't go to Changsha anymore." ”

Director Gao said strangely: "Childe." Can the affairs of Changsha be easily handled by subordinates? ”

Liu Yong's eyes lit up and replied, "There is nothing inconvenient. I just have a case and want to ask Changsha Taishou Zhang Zhongjing for diagnosis and treatment. ”

"It's so simple. Childe does not need to go to Changsha, he only needs to inform his subordinates of the illness, and the diagnosis and treatment method can be presented to Childe in three to five days. ”

Liu Yong was surprised and delighted: "How can the main thing be done? ”

Director Gao replied proudly: "The subordinate network has spread all over the prefectures and counties of Jingxiang, and there are carrier pigeons between the counties, which is very convenient and fast. ”

Liu Yong was overjoyed, why didn't he think about using carrier pigeons to deliver news, and hurriedly asked: "When did you think of using carrier pigeons to deliver news?" ”

"Childe, have you forgotten that Fuyi used to recruit talents? There are pigeon keepers and pigeons. The most important thing in the transmission of information is to be timely and fast, and this pigeon can come in handy. ”

Liu Yong was overjoyed and asked again, "So that's it." Is it possible to use carrier pigeons to deliver messages anywhere? ”

Director Gao reluctantly smiled and said, "Childe, the pigeon is not that smart. They can only remember two or three places where they often live. Seeing that Liu Yong was a little dazed, Director Gao continued to explain: "How to use pigeons to deliver news? We feed it in Xiangyang for a few months, and it will remember this place very well. In the future, even if you take it to a distant and strange place, it will be able to come back here. The same. We took the pigeons to Changsha for a few more months and they will remember that new place again......"

With that said, the pigeon remembered two locations. Can you pass messages between these two places? Liu Yong somewhat understood, and interjected on the side. Director Gao nodded, and Liu Yong was suspicious: "What if you feed for a long time in several places?" ”

Director Gao said: "Too much is not good." Pigeons don't fly where we envisioned, and sometimes they get lost. If it's delayed, it's useless. ”

"I see." Liu Yong nodded. In his heart, he secretly said that the plot of receiving carrier pigeon summons on the way to the TV was made up, and he asked, "Do you often use pigeons to convey messages?" ”

"Yes." Director Gao replied, "But I can only spread some news that is not very important. Just because I was worried that the pigeon would be caught by someone, or that someone with a heart would shoot it down and leak the secret. ”

"You're doing a good job, that's good." Liu Yong praised it for a while, and said with a smile, "I'll pass on a few ways to write secret letters to you, and others won't be able to see the clues." ”

Director Gao was overjoyed and said, "That's the best." But let's do Childe's big business first. ”

"Good!" Liu Yong nodded and told Chen Deng's illness. Director Gao wrote down them one by one, copied them into three copies, rolled the paper into a small tube, inserted it into the feather tube on the legs of the three pigeons, walked into the courtyard, and as soon as he let go of his hands, the three pigeons spread their wings and went straight into the sky.

"Actually, these pigeons have flown many times, but it's safer to add two so you don't have to worry about anything happening. ”

Liu Yong was relaxed for a while, and then asked, "Director Gao, how is the business now?" ”

Director Gao took out the account and presented it to Liu Yong. Liu Yong looked at it and praised it first, this high director has established a sales account completely according to his own requirements, each book is a major category, porcelain is a book, and paper is another book. Liu Yong pulled out the porcelain, and there were many small items underneath. Such as porcelain plates, porcelain bowls, porcelain plates, porcelain cups, etc., each variety is several pages, and there are labels inserted next to them, which can be found at any time. Liu Yong flipped to the porcelain bowl casually. On the left, remember the time, price, quantity and storage location of the purchase, and on the right is the time, quantity, unit price, amount, and inventory of the sale.

Liu Yong was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "Is there any difficulty in such a high note?" ”

Director Gao replied respectfully: "Although this method is more cumbersome, it is extremely convenient. The daily inventory, the profit and loss, and the location of the goods are all clear. To put it bluntly, it can be said to be once and for all. The subordinates are extremely impressed, and the skills of the son are really unfathomable. ”

Liu Yong waved his hand and said with a smile: "I am also someone else, so it's nothing." Pointing to the accounts, he said: "I see that Xiangyang enters and exits frequently every month, is there any mistake in the accounts?" ”

Director Gao said: "My subordinates are worried about this. Each stroke must be counted twice, and it should be written without mistakes. It's just that the number is mixed, and the subordinates are slow to calculate, and they don't dare to fake their hands and people, so they ......"

Liu Yong interjected: "This is easy to do. The high director can choose a few loyal and reliable in the house or subordinates. Quick-witted man, make me a few more things, and tomorrow night, I will come to you again and teach them, and then you can rest assured that they will do it, and you will have a lot of peace of mind. ”

The high master was overjoyed and bowed down to thank him. Liu Yong explained the structure of the abacus in detail, saw that no one was watching, and slowly took Zhou Cang back to the inn.

Day 2. Liu Yong asked the rest of his entourage to play around, and he took Zhou Cang to Wollongong. The state capital under Liu Biao's rule was not in the event of war, and compared with the almost unfortified entry and exit management in the north, it was extremely strict, and it was not only necessary to pay the entry tax. It has to be guided by the local government. Liu Yong showed the seal letter given by Liu Biao, and the face of the military marquis guarding the door suddenly piled up flowers.

Liu Yong asked for directions and was about to set off, but saw two war horses galloping past, passers-by avoided one after another, and one person in front looked about twenty years old. Carrying a large knife, one behind him was about thirty years old, holding a steel gun, both of them were fully dressed and murderous.

"I heard that it's been three days of competition, and there is still no winner yet?"

"These two people's martial arts are similar, I don't think I can tell the winner no matter how many days I compare."

Zhou Cang saw that the big knife mentioned by the person in front of him was similar to his own, and his heart was itchy, and when he heard that the two were fighting outside the city, he was even more unbearable.

Liu Yong looked at it and smiled secretly in his heart, and asked the military marquis: "Who are these two people, and why do they often go out of the city to compete?" ”

The military marquis smiled and said, "The son is inferior." Among the two people, the name of the person who held the gun was Wen Ping, and the one who carried the knife was Wei Yan. Liu Yong was shocked in his heart, and suddenly met two of the most powerful generals in Xiangyang City. But he heard the military marquis continue: "Although Wei Yan is only a chief, he is outstanding in martial arts, and he doesn't take the commander in his eyes. This Wenpin agreed that the two would compete, if Wei Yan lost, he needed to listen to the order with peace of mind, but the two of them had been competing for three days but still had not decided the winner. ”

Liu Yong thanked him and said to Zhou Cang: "Brother Zhou, do you want to go and see the excitement?" ”

Zhou Cang said with a straight face: "It is Zhou Cang's duty to protect his son, how can he forget his public because of his selfishness." As he spoke, his eyes couldn't stop peeking at the place where the two men were gone.

Liu Yong smiled secretly in his heart and said, "Tell me the truth, do you want to see it?" ”

Zhou Cang touched the back of his head, grinned and said: "Zhou Cang has no other hobbies, he can't help it when he sees someone competing, not to mention that there is a big knife like me." It's just that Miss Yun explained that she wants to protect her son......"

Liu Yong stopped Zhou Cangyan's insincere confession, "I allow you to go, do you want to go?" ”

"Really?" Zhou Cang was suspicious and couldn't make up his mind.

Liu Yong's face turned pale, and he said: "When the time comes, I will go back, I only count three times, don't regret it." One, two......" As soon as the word "came out", Zhou Cang ran out like a rabbit with an arrow, turned over on his horse, and shouted as he ran: "Take care, Gongzi, Zhou Cang is gone." Liu Yong finally couldn't stop and laughed.

The road outside Xiangyang City is extremely wide, and there are few people, Liu Yong has not ridden a horse for a long time, and when he saw this opportunity, he galloped on his horse, and after a while, he had arrived in Longzhong. Liu Yong saw that the mountain was getting higher and the road was getting narrower, and he was already enjoying himself and the horse was lacking, so he loosened the reins and let the horse go along the mountain road, so that he could enjoy the beauty of the mountain village.

I saw a few farmers plowing the fields at the foot of the mountain, singing while planting: The sky is like a round cover, and the land is like a chess game; The world is divided into black and self-divided, and they fight for honor and disgrace. The honorable are at peace, and the humiliated are at peace. There is seclusion in Nanyang, and there is not enough high sleep......

Liu Yong jumped off the horse, led him to the edge of the paddy field, and asked, "Dare to ask if this song was composed by Mr. Wolong?" ”

"Exactly. What does Childe command? ”

"May I ask how to get to Mr. Kong Ming's house?"

A farmer pointed with his hand and said, "Son, please see, there is a hill in the south, and this is Wollonggang." The thatched cottages in the forest in front of the hill are Mr. Wolong's residence. ”

Liu Yong didn't leave immediately, and asked some about farming and planting, and those farmers saw that this son was dressed luxuriously, but he was polite, and he had a good impression first, who knew that this son was also quite familiar with farming, and he was even more surprised, and then heard a series of philosophical agricultural proverbs in Liu Yong's mouth, and was even more surprised.

In fact, this is Liu Yong's consistent style, but it is not hypocrisy, and he also wants to know what to plant at this time, what the yield is, and what are the pests and diseases. Sure enough, at this time, not only corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes and the like, but also the yield was frighteningly low, less than one-tenth of that of later generations. It is very strange that there is still no cotton, Liu Yong is a little puzzled, cotton originated in India, as early as the Western Han Dynasty was introduced to China, why there are no people everywhere? Didn't you find out what it did? Liu Yong sighed, said goodbye to the farmers, and headed for Wollongong.

After walking for two or three miles, I saw an old man on the opposite road riding a donkey coming slowly. Liu Yong saw that the road was not too wide, so he hurriedly jumped down and led the horse aside.

The old man saw that Liu Yongqian was polite, and his chin was approving. Liu Yong saw that the old man was about fifty years old, not tall, with a thin face, carrying a wine gourd, quite a taste of fairy wind bones, and couldn't help but move in his heart. (To be continued.) )
