In early summer, although the weather is warm, you can still feel the coolness when the sea breeze blows. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The boat had been gone for a while, and the shore had disappeared from view. Jiang Hexing sat on the deck, looking at the sea and sky, and the seabirds were not skimming the sea. As soon as the ship in front passed, countless flying fish were startled on both sides.

Zhou Ren stood beside Li Bin, at the boat rail, looking at the seaside in the distance, listening to what Li Bin introduced to him.

Jiang Hexing waved his hand and beckoned the two of them to come to his side to chat.

Li Bin walked over, and Zhou Ren followed behind, his head lowered, not daring to look at Jiang Hexing.

Jiang Hexing pointed to the deck beside him, and Li Bin pulled Zhou Ren to sit down.

Jiang Hexing asked: "Mr. Li, you just said that this Zhou Ren was rescued by General Ma Biao in Dongjun, why do you still want to fight with you?" Did he use his power to bully others? ”

Zhou Ren stood up suddenly, a little excited, looked at Jiang Hexing, and said, "He Wang, Brother Ma Biao will never bully others. He is, he is, he is ......"

Zhou Ren couldn't say it excitedly, and stared at Jiang Hexing with two eyes.

Li Bin hurriedly stood up and dragged Zhou Ren to sit down.

Li Bin opened his mouth and said: "Zhou Ren doesn't like to talk, and he is not very good at talking, and he forgives sins with the king. I'll go through it again. ”

Jiang Hexing waved his hand and said, "There's nothing wrong with young people talking, let's talk about it." ”

Li Bin talked about how he was rescued from Dongjun by Ma back then, how he went to Phoenix Island to start a medicinal material business, and how Ma Biao saved Zhou Ren. Ma Biao later came to Phoenix Island and found that Zhou Ren was missing, rumors were spreading, everything was said, how Ma Biao asked Li Bin to ask for someone, and how he met Ma Yuan, all of them were told.

After listening to this, Jiang Hexing nodded and said, "I didn't expect you to still have contact with several of our generals in Pingzhou." By the way, where is your business going? ”

Li Bin said: "I just send medicine to several coastal states and counties, which is much more convenient to travel from Phoenix Island to coastal states and counties, and you can go back and forth in more than ten days." ”

Jiang Hexing then asked, "Have you ever been to the place where the Jishui estuary?" ”

Li Bin said: "It is not very far from the mouth of Jishui to Phoenix Island, I once sent a boat there and went upriver along Jishui. I can go to Linzi, I can also go to Jinan County, and I haven't been there. But I still know a little bit about Jishui. ”

Jiang Hexing then asked Li Bin about Jishui, Li Bin was very strange, Jiang Hexing was almost ignorant of Jishui. He didn't dare to show it on the surface, but he still respectfully explained Jishui clearly to Jiang Hexing.

Since ancient times, Jishui is one of the four major rivers known as the Yellow River, the Yangtze River and the Huai River, and originates from Wangwu Mountain. During the Yin Shang period, Jishui was the lifeblood of the Yin Shang Dynasty to manage the princely kingdoms in the east.

In the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Duke of Zhou marched eastward, and the army in the north also marched in the direction of Jishui. After the victory, the Duke of Zhou built some roads along Jishui, which led directly to Linzi, the capital of Qi State.

These roads and Jishui became the lifeblood of Linzi's prosperity in the future, and later the Qi State jumped up when the princes competed for hegemony, relying on the benefits of fish and salt, but Jishui communicated Qi and the Central Plains countries, which was also very critical.

In the past, Jishui flowed into the sea alone, but now, Jishui flows into the Yellow River in the upper reaches, and the downstream part flows out of the Yellow River, which is considered a tributary of the Yellow River.

When Jiang Hexing heard that it was a tributary of the Yellow River, he hurriedly asked, "Has the river ever silted up?" ”

Li Bin hurriedly said: "Hewang, don't worry, there is a section of Juyeze in the middle of Jishui, Juyeze is hundreds of miles away, even if there is yellow sand in Jishui, it will precipitate in Juyeze." The downstream is very clear, without the slightest trace of the Yellow River water. ”

Jiang Hexing was relieved, but at the same time, he felt that he knew too little about Jishui.

River, Ji, Huai, Jiang, the four major rivers, the merchant ships of Pingzhou go the most is the Yellow River, and it is said that they can also go to Jishui in the future, and finally they can enter the Yellow River and reach Luoyang.

After rescuing the refugees, wouldn't it be possible for the river to go directly upstream along the river, into the Yellow River, and then to Luoyang?

Jiang Hexing sat on the boat, chatted with Li Bin, and found that Li Bin knew a lot. is a scholar, and has experienced a lot of world affairs, and he is also very sophisticated and unassuming. Of course, in front of Jiang Hexing, even Zhang Yang did not dare to go there.

After walking for a long time, when I came to Yongnu Island, Wu Han's fleet also set sail, and the two fleets converged into one fleet.

The fleet stretched for more than ten miles, and on the blue sea, it was like a huge white ribbon drifting, rising and falling with the waves.

Jiang Hexing looked at the boats in front of him, and then at the boats behind, everything was fine, put his mind at ease, and turned his head to look at Li Bin and Zhou Ren beside him.

After talking for a long time, this Zhou Ren is really honest, except for Jiang Hexing's criticism of Ma Biao, he interjected a sentence, but this young man didn't say a word. Just lowered her head and listened quietly, like a shy girl.

Jiang Hexing thought that this guy was so young that he could be taken by Li Bin's side, and he must have something extraordinary. Curious for a moment, he asked: "Mr. Li, this young man, I don't like to talk much, why are you so shy?" ”

Zhou Ren's face flushed, and his head sank even lower.

Li Bin next to him smiled and said: "He Wang, this young man is not simple, although he doesn't like to talk, but he is the most powerful apprentice I have found, almost unforgettable, if you have a good experience, the future is limitless." ”

Li Bin is also a cautious person, to be able to praise this young man like this, it seems that he must have the ability, Jiang Hexing became interested for a while and said: "Mr. Li, then tell me, he is so young, can he master the principles of medicine?" ”

Hearing Jiang Hexing's question, Li Bin's eyes flickered, and he looked at Zhou Ren and said to Jiang Hexing: "He Wang, it seems that what people do may be destined by nature."

This Zhou Ren, doing other things, is not smart, sometimes he is stupider than others, whatever he does, I am anxious for him.

But it's different when he learns medicine, he also knows some words, although not much, but there is always some foundation. Learn words hard, learning words is not very prominent, but at that time, Ma Biao, General Ma Yuan specially explained, I don't dare to slack off, even if he doesn't learn well, I will treat him well.

But later, once he studied medicine, he was like a different person, learning things very quickly, and the pharmacology changed so much that others couldn't learn it several times. This Zhou Ren is different, he will do it once, and he can touch the bypass, draw inferences from one another, and in less than a year, the master I invited couldn't teach him. Later, I specially invited a medical craftsman from all over the country to teach him, and as long as he taught a medicine, I would reward him heavily.

There is one thing, I'm afraid you don't believe it, now he is the one we know most about all kinds of medicinal materials, and what he lacks is to go to various places to experience and go to the production areas of these medicinal materials to see. ”

Jiang Hexing knows that there are some particularly introverted people who don't dare to deal with people, and are even afraid of dealing with people. However, they do things without distractions, do not think about other things, concentrate on one thing, can do the best, and can achieve more than others can imagine.

It's just that this kind of people are clumsy in interpersonal communication, and they often lose in interpersonal relationships, rather than their own ability, I hope this Zhou Ren can have a good fate. (To be continued.) )
