It was 2 p.m. and it was very soon there. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

To Zhao Gou's surprise, Zhou Quan actually came.

"Isn't Guogong busy, how can he have time?" He asked with a smile.

Zhou Quan also smiled: "You have to do some landlord friendship...... When the Nine Kings came here, they just had to say what they wanted to buy. ”

He said this, but his eyes glanced at Mao De, Mao Bei had a pair of wonderful eyes, and he also looked at Yingying, and the two of them looked at each other, and then separated, even if it was Ande, who had been staring at Zhou Quan, he didn't find it.

It was like a little secret between the two of them, and it made Maude's heart pound.

Accompanied by Zhou Quan, Zhao Gou was even more happy, he pointed to Yue Fei who was guarding beside him and said: "Duke Zhou, this strong man, has the qualifications of a famous general, Duke Zhou should not miss him, only regard him as a personal guard." ”

Zhou Quan glanced at him and smiled: "If you can win the favor of the Nine Kings, it must be a talent." ”

He didn't just want to laugh on his face, he wanted to laugh even more in his heart.

Yue Fei's talent, do you still need Zhao Gou to talk about it?

What's more, Zhao Gou didn't talk to him in private, but mentioned it in front of Yue Fei, and his motive to win Yue Fei's favor was undoubtedly revealed.

It's just that his trick is really not enough to see!

Over the years, Yue Fei has read more books under Zhou Quan's prompts, but he has not read in vain. In particular, thinking about some deeper issues under the surface is enough for him to get rid of the petty loyalty of the loyal monarch and put his own loyalty on a higher level such as the destiny of the nation.

In the world of one family and one surname, no matter whether it rises or falls, it is the people who suffer after all, how to formulate a new mechanism that allows the people to enjoy more fairness, Yue Fei himself has no clue, but he believes that following Zhou Quan's side, there will definitely be results.

In fact, Jeju's mechanism has already allowed him to see some prototypes.

Jeju implements a compulsory education system, and Han Chinese who have received compulsory education and passed the education, including those who have passed the night school, have the corresponding rights, such as holding public office, enjoying benefits, participating in deliberations, and many other benefits. Non-Han Chinese must be naturalized before they can enjoy these rights.

These systems were not too unfamiliar to the Great Song Dynasty, for example, holding public office was like being able to become an official after being born in the imperial examination, but now in Jeju, there is no distinction between officials and officials, and all officials are placed under the same standard, which is actually the expansion and deepening of the imperial examination to a certain extent. The key difference is that in the content of the exam, the words of Confucian sages occupy less weight, and more of what Zhou Quan calls "dragon slaying": dialectics from Taoism and Qi Zhang Zai, Gewuxue, which is regarded as the foundation of Gongjia and Mohistism, applied writing as the basis for writing and communicating official documents, and the new nine chapters of arithmetic, which has caused headaches for countless people.

Another example is to enjoy welfare, the Great Song Dynasty actually has many welfare policies, for which the imperial court also bears a lot of burden, but in Jeju, the welfare is to recuperate from the sick and not to be lazy, and to help the poor without helping. In the past, the court discussion was limited to officials above a certain rank, and the so-called Son of Heaven and scholars ruled the world together, but in Jeju it was expanded to all civilians with compulsory education, becoming the scholars and the people to rule the world together.

Yue Fei felt that this kind of co-governance was much better than the co-governance of the Great Song Dynasty, at least under the co-governance of the Great Song Dynasty, a martial artist like him would not have any say in political affairs, and if he was not careful, he would trespass, and even arouse the suspicion of the imperial court.

It is precisely because of this that even if Zhao Gou praised him in every possible way and tried to get his attention, Yue Fei still looked cold and ignored, which made Zhao Gou very frustrated.

The plan of the Five Kingdoms City is simple and clear, straight and not curved, wide and not narrow, so that the streets are straight and wide, and the trees planted on both sides, although not too large, are enough to provide shade and cover the summer sun.

Today is a weekday, and the streets are full of business travelers, and there are few workers, so there are not many people.

Rao is so, the shop signs on both sides and a variety of dazzling commodity displays are still eye-catching.

This made Ander and Maud very excited, and almost every store had to go in and take a turn. In particular, those ready-to-wear and decoration shops, as well as various rouge gouache shops, make them linger.

Zhao Gou was not very interested in shopping, he was more interested in pestering Zhou Quan and Yue Fei to ask this and that, and when he saw a group of pedestrians on the street, he said with some surprise: "The big cannibal is also here?" ”

Zhou Quan glanced over there and couldn't help but be happy.

He knew the leader of this group of big cannibals, and it was none other than Pu Mabe.

"Jeju is now the most important island in the East China Sea, and there are many ghost slaves in the Five Kingdoms City, not to mention the big cannibals, and it was this group of big cannibals who sent them...... Well, it seems that there is something. ”

Zhou Quan beckoned to Pu Ma Be, and looked at him a little anxiously as if he was running over, and when he arrived in front of him, he bowed down at his feet, and his attitude was as respectful as he was.

"King of the sea, ruler of all the kingdoms of the earth, creator of wealth...... Your Royal Highness the Great Duke of Donghai County, I finally see you again! ”

He uttered a series of words in Chinese, which made Zhao Gouzhi frown, and some titles here were obviously taboo. He glanced at Zhou Quan, and saw that Zhou Quan was also frowning: "Is this your doctrine again, when you ask for help, you don't hesitate to compliment the infidels, obey him, obey his orders and wait for the opportunity?" ”

Pu Mabei grinned: "Master, I have already converted, I am now a believer of Taishang Laojun, because they all say, Master, so many of your inventions are all whimsical ideas born during alchemy, I am sure that this is the inspiration given to you by Taishang Laojun, so if I convert to Taoism so devoutly, I think Taishang Laojun will also give me enlightenment......"

The only thing these cannibals believe in is money, and the purpose of their belief in that god is only to make money in the name of God, which is what they have done since the beginning of their religion.

Some people think they are devout, but in fact, they are the most unfaithful people in the world.

Zhou Quan kicked Pu Mabe's outstretched hand away with some disgust: "Get up and speak, you just squeezed your eyebrows, is there something wrong?" ”

Pu Ma Bu nodded again and again: "There is something, something big...... Master, I have just returned from Da Shi, and I heard a news there that it is a king from Taohuashi, who married the princess of the Seljuks, converted to religion, and helped the Seljuks unify the river and block the land trade route from the Da Shi to the Great Song Dynasty......"

The so-called peach blossom stone is Huaxia, today's Great Song Dynasty.

The news brought by Pu Mabe matched some of the rumors that Zhou Quan had gotten before, so he could guess what was going on.

The so-called king from Taohuashi refers to Li Qianshun, the lord of Xia, under the joint attack of the Great Song Dynasty and Liao, Li Qianshun abandoned the country and fled westward, with Shazhou and Guazhou as a stronghold, passing through Xizhou, conquering most of the Uighurs in Xizhou in just a few years, and then marching into the Black Khan, where he met with the Seljuk Empire of the Turks.

Hundreds of years ago, the two sides fought against the Talas of the Tang Dynasty and the Great Food, Li Ganshun sent more than 40,000 generals to supervise the army of various departments, and 100,000 troops of the Seljuks, Western Black Khan, Khorezm and other countries and ministries fought here, the result of the war was unexpected, and the two sides confronted each other for more than a month, and after some sporadic battles, they actually reached a peace agreement.

Li Qianshun converted to the Great Food Sect and married the Seljuk princess as the queen, and the Seljuks ruled many places, including China, with Li Qianshun as the lord of the East -- this is the case with this group of shameless Semitic monotheistic religions, when the original owner was still there, they dared to take the land that belonged to others as their own and do things in a grand manner.

After Li Qianshun took refuge, the Seljuk Sultan Sanjar took this opportunity to try to restore the territory of his father Malishak, and cut off the trade routes between the East and the West.

Zhou Quan knew that Li Qianshun had taken refuge in a certain force in the Western Regions, but he never thought that he had taken refuge in Seljuk, let alone that this guy would convert to the Great Food Sect with the intention of introducing this sect into China. Is it tolerable or unbearable, Zhou Quan's brows wrinkled at that time.

Pu Ma looked at him gloatingly with this expression, he came to report the news this time, but he didn't have any good intentions. Under the threat of the revival of the Seljuk Empire, the Great Eclipse Fatimid Dynasty (Green Clothes and Great Eclipse) felt pressure, although they believed in the Great Food Religion, but one side was Shiite and the other side was Sunni, and the two sides had to beat each other's dog brains out when they met together, so the Fatimid lord caliph Amir? Ahkamila was looking for help.

Looking at the world, to the west and north of him, the barbaric feudal lords of Europe are playing the Crusades, and the blacks in the south do not even have a serious kingdom, and it seems that the only thing that can help them is the legendary China.

When he went to Africa to search for ghost slaves, he had to deal with local merchants and brag about what kind of courtesy he had received in the East. In these circumstances, the Fatimids commissioned him to deliver a letter to the Lord of the East.

Pu Mabe also has his own ideas, he has stayed in the Great Song Dynasty for a long time, of course, he knows that the Great Song Emperor may not be interested in such distant things, and the one who is really interested there is Zhou Quan, the lord of the East China Sea. Thinking about the problem from the perspective of a merchant, what is more disgusting to the merchant than cutting off the trade route, so Pu Mabei focused on mentioning the Seljuk isolation of the trade between the East and the West, and then said indignantly: "Master, originally the goods of our Great Song Dynasty were sent to the West to be widely popular, but what a loss will these Turkic barbarians bring us if they are isolated from the trade routes!" ”

As they spoke, someone had already presented the map, and Zhao Gou looked at the colorful map, and found for the first time that the Great Song Dynasty, which he thought was extremely vast, was only so little on the map.

He had read a lot of nature books before, and he was very interested in geography, but at that time he was only interested in the geography of the Great Song Dynasty, and now when he saw the names of countries and places marked on the map, he only felt that he was in a trance.

Zhou Quan thought ...... It's such a big world?

However, Yue Fei, with bright eyes, patrolled the map, he had been influenced by Zhou Quan, and believed that if the Chinese people wanted to live a better life, they must have a broader territory, and the places on the map were purely wasteful in the hands of those fools who only knew how to worship God, and only in the hands of the diligent and self-reliant Chinese people could they make the best use of them.

"It's a big world!" Zhao Gou said with emotion.

"It's a big world!" Yue Fei also sighed.

The words are the same, but the meaning is different. (To be continued.) )
