"I will hand over Jingzhou Yizhou, including the cavalry now in Hanzhong, to you, a total of 12,000 people, after the purchase of war horses, this number will increase, there are Qiang people outside the west, you can recruit at will."

Liu Zhang pinched his forehead, there are no cavalry in Jingyi Erzhou, and even if there is, it is far from being the opponent of Liangzhou cavalry, and it is a big problem to conquer Liangzhou, which is also a problem that Liu Zhang has been worried about.

Liu Zhang said to Zhang Ren in a deep voice: "All cavalry are equipped with white pole guns and ring-headed knives, and after having stirrups and saddle horseshoes, they must meet the standard of riding and shooting, and there are also throwing guns, which must be trained emphatically." I hope this unit is a fine cavalry that can deter Liangzhou cavalry. ”

The farming people are not good at riding, but that does not mean that they cannot train cavalry that is better than the foreign cavalry and the nomadic Han cavalry, Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry is an example, not to mention the addition of stirrup saddles and horseshoes, in the grasslands west of Chengdu, it is not impossible to train an elite cavalry.

If the training is successful, this cavalry will certainly not be able to swallow hundreds of thousands of cavalry in Liangzhou, but it will have a deterrent effect, and at the same time a fatal blow at a critical moment.

Liu Zhang said: "Another 10,000 to 20,000 infantry, all using short knives with long weapons, long weapons are Ge and hook sickle, no matter how you train, the last thing I see is to let them be able to block the cavalry's charge."

And those twenty long-range crossbows, you go and select hundreds of soldiers who are good at shooting, train them to use long-range crossbows, and the last effect I see is that they are going to shoot the enemy accurately from a distance of 150 paces, understand? ”

Zhang Ren frowned, what stirrups, saddles, horseshoes, and long-range crossbows, he didn't understand anything, and he didn't know if he could achieve the unprecedented effect of riding and shooting, throwing guns, and killing enemies a hundred steps away that Liu Zhang said.

But as a general, I saw Ma Junzuobo's surprise just now, and I knew the bottom of my heart, and replied loudly: "The last general will take the order." ”

Liu Zhang nodded: "Other soldiers, in the spring and autumn harvest seasons, let them tuntian, and the rest of the time must also be strictly trained, their training and elite cavalry, hook and sickle infantry are separated, the latter must be carried out secretly, any participating soldiers and generals, no one can go home for five years, Hanzhong Wu Ban I also gave the same order, in the eyes of outsiders, we only have a spring and autumn tuntian, winter and summer training troops." ”

"Yes."

"Go ahead."

Zhang Ren left, leaving Ma Jun and Zuo Bo, and the two were about to say goodbye, but Liu Zhang stopped them.

"What else does the lord command?"

Liu Zhang groaned for a while and said, "Listen, from today onwards, you will go back and divide the craftsman's room into three levels, advanced, intermediate, and ordinary. The ordinary craftsman's room is responsible for general development, such as improving the efficiency of the assembly line, designing chair styles, etc.

The intermediate craftsman's room is responsible for the manufacture and improvement of special civilian and general military machinery, which must be irreproducible or difficult to reproduce, such as complex waterwheels, papermaking, printing, ink, and military such as the casting and improvement of guns, spears and swords, and there must be no leakage before the Sichuan army equips the army.

As for the high-level craftsman's room, it is a top-secret existence, such as the manufacture and production of stirrups and saddle horseshoes, which must not be handed over to the workshop for processing, you can recruit a group of full-time workers yourself, these workers are the same as the trained cavalry infantry, and they are not allowed to go home for five years, and only those who are willing to abide by this condition can be hired, as well as crossbow arrows, knife carts, etc., are put in the senior craftsman's camp. ”

After Liu Zhang finished speaking, he sighed: "You remember, these three craftsman battalions are not divided according to the level of technology, but the degree of top secret, all intermediate craftsman rooms enjoy the treatment of reserve officials, and senior craftsmen's rooms enjoy the treatment of officials at least two hundred stones. ”

"Thank you, Lord." Ma Jun and Zuo Bo didn't expect Liu Zhang to attach so much importance to craftsmen, they used to engage in mechanical work, all out of interest, they never thought that they could get ahead with this, they could have such treatment, what more could they ask for.

"But." Liu Zhang said in a deep voice with a cold face: "Anyone who leaks secrets must be severely punished, Ma Jun, I will give you a thousand soldiers, in charge of the senior craftsman's room, Uncle Zuo, I will give you five hundred soldiers, in charge of the intermediate craftsman's room."

Those who dare to leak secrets in the intermediate craftsman's room will be punished for serious crimes, and those who leak secrets in the senior craftsman's room will be beheaded at the least, and the family will be exterminated at the worst, and you all have the right to cut first and then play, if you can't restrain ......"

Liu Zhang glanced at the two of them coldly: "Your heads have to move, understand?" ”

Ma Jun and Zuo Bo looked awe-inspiring, and said in unison: "We will live up to the trust of the Hou Ye." ”

After Ma Jun and Zuo Bo left, Liu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, internal affairs have this benefit, you only need to give orders by yourself, and it is the business of subordinates who are tired and tired.

Suddenly, Zhou Budo came over and said to Liu Zhang: "My lord, you have seen the horseshoe and the bow and crossbow to Ma Jun Zuobo, the left one killed the head, and the right one copied the house, and I also understood their use, aren't you afraid that I will leak secrets?" ”

"Anyway, I can't prevent you, I'm too lazy to guard against you." Liu Zhang didn't look at Zhou Budo without looking at it.

In fact, judging from the nine months of the expedition, although Zhou Budo did not express his loyalty, he helped a lot at the critical moment.

When he left Chaisang, it was he who suggested that Huang Quan go to Wuxi Pass to meet him and settle Shuzhong, Huang Quan wanted to monitor Wei Yan, and it was he who told Huang Yue that there was no need to monitor.

When he was in Baichuan, if it weren't for his first letter, he would have to wait at least a month for the Xiangjiang River to burst the embankment, and Xu Shu didn't know how many reinforcements he had recruited, how many soldiers he had trained, and how many tricks he had thought of.

The second letter avoided damage to the armor and arrows of the Sichuan army, not only did not give Xu Shu a chance, but also severely damaged the Jingzhou army.

And now it seems that the last words of the letter, "Now the seasons change...... The dragon flies to the sky, and the phoenix returns to the nest...... If an animal dies on the way, it is susceptible to infection......"

Comparing the matter of Gu Xiangyang and thinking about it carefully, Liu Zhang wants to think that it is difficult to think that there is no deep meaning.

"Liu Bei, who the lord said, really rose, from the move of giving up Chang'an, Zhuge is wise, Liu Bei is open-minded, and has great ambitions, the lord said that he was the male lord when he was in trouble, and he was really prescient, I think he should have a great development in Xiliang, and I decided to go to him."

Zhou Budo said with an oath.

"You're serious?" Liu Zhang looked at Zhou Budo.

"That's nature." Zhou Budo picked up the book and sat in the place where Ma Jun had sit, and said leisurely after a while: "However, if the adults are willing to agree to me with two conditions, I will stay." ”

"Pay back two, I won't agree to you half a condition."

"Then you're leaving me with no choice."

"How are you doing?"

"Then I begged you to do it?" Zhou Budo had a bitter face and said pitifully.

Liu Zhang looked curious, what stumped Zhou Budo, and nodded: "Okay, you can talk about it." ”

Zhou Budo's face was overjoyed, and he immediately hugged the book in his hand and came to Liu Zhang, only to see that it was a knife car composition diagram, because the structure was too complex and the size was too much, Huang Yueying always couldn't mark the size when she was painting, until she learned the "Three Miao Numbers" from Liu Zhang, and finally marked the size.

Zhou Budo pointed to the numbers on it, frowned, and thought deeply: "I have been studying this book for a long time, and Sister Huang Yue also told me some before, these ten numbers are by no means as simple as replacing square words, because this combination of digits brings a lot of calculation methods."

I've only comprehended a few, but I know that what I've comprehended is only scratching the surface, and it must be broad and profound, and these angles, and the fractions above, I probably know that it's proportions, but it seems that there are also very deep calculations......"

Zhou Budo raised his head as he spoke, and said seriously: "Can you teach me?" ”

Liu Zhang sweated for a moment, but he didn't expect that the knowledge of elementary and junior high school in later generations would stump Zhou Budo, a genius child, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart, and said coldly on his face: "I'm so busy, why should I teach you?" ”

"The master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship." Zhou Budo kicked away the chair and bowed to Liu Zhang.

Zhou Budo's master is not a hundred but eighty, and he is not worth anything at all, and Liu Zhang is too lazy to pay attention to him.

Zhou Bu doubted that kowtowing was useless, so he sat down again and said: "My lord, I really admire you a little, you haven't made a splash for six years, you have a set of commanding troops, and you can also chant poems against it, 'Jin Lin is not a thing in the pool, and a dragon changes when it encounters wind and clouds.' 'Absolutely.

I didn't expect that there would be three seedling numbers, and I could also think of horseshoes, and that printing, I saw that Huang Junshi marked it above, and you proposed it, you are really a unique one through the ages, I don't doubt admire it so much......"

"It's useless to apprentice, have you changed to ** soup?" Liu Zhang glanced at Zhou Budo coldly: "I still have to go to Xicheng and the southern suburbs to inspect, so I won't accompany you." ”

Liu Zhang stood up to leave, Zhou Budo was anxious, and said loudly: "Two things, you have to promise one, as long as you promise one, I will repay him one day." ”

"What's the other thing?"

Zhou Budo smiled and said, "When will Sister Rong'er come back?" ”

Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Zhou Budo suddenly mentioned this, and said casually: "When I get married to Miss Yue, she will come back." ”

"Can you make it sooner?"

"What's the matter with you?"

Liu Zhang suddenly thought of something, and said to Zhou Budo seriously: "If you are willing to teach Xun'er well, let him learn poetry and literature from you, the way of governing the country, and the method of commanding the army to resist the enemy, I will take the time to teach you numbers." ”

"Threaten me? If I haven't played with ten numbers in a few years, I'll die. Zhou Budo said contemptuously.

Liu Zhang was even more contemptuous than him, and glanced at Zhou Budo with disdain: "How many years? If I didn't teach you, you wouldn't be able to play it for hundreds of years, do you know what hybrid computing is? What are the three laws? What is a ninety-nine multiplication table?

Any idea what a sequence is? Do you know the law of proportional series? Do you know the angle of the arc? Do you know SIN and COS? Do you know differentiation? Know the derivative? Know what a Fourier series is? Any idea what Laplace's theorem is? Know ......"

Zhou Budo looked at Liu Zhang stupidly, and the whole person was completely stunned.

Liu Zhang snorted lightly after speaking, "More than these ten numbers, you say that you know astronomy and geography, it's pure nonsense, do you know the core temperature of the sun?" Do you know the volume of Mars? Do you know the laws of celestial motion? Do you know about black hole wormholes? Do you know what gravity is? Do you know how many continents there are in the world? Know Newton's Three Laws? Know about antimatter? Know ......"

Zhou Budo has fingers in his mouth, like an idiot.

Liu Zhang turned around after speaking, and breathed a sigh of relief, he said that these were not purely fooling Zhou Budo, but thinking that if he really couldn't adhere to Huang Yueying's policies and strategies, someone must inherit his career.

Huang Yueying is right, in fact, she is already a carrier of the re-erection of the Han Dynasty, and she can die, but this mission cannot be abandoned, and the one who continues can only be Liu Xun.

Originally, Liu Xun was very young, Liu Zhang thought that if Liu Xun couldn't take on the big responsibility at that time, he would choose his brother Liu Mao to inherit the foundation, Liu Mao was honest and had no utilitarian intentions, which Liu Zhang knew, and he was relieved.

Liu Zhang is worried that Liu Mao has no ambition to rebuild the Han.

But if Liu Xun has Professor Zhou Budo, then the situation is very different, first of all, Liu Xun is filial piety, has his own entrustment, and will definitely continue the great cause without avoiding difficulties.

There is no doubt about Professor Zhou, coupled with diligence and studiousness, although the talent is almost good, but diligence can make up for the clumsiness, five years later, the ten-year-old Liu Xun may be worthy of a big responsibility.

And Zhou Budo has been a teacher for five years, it is impossible to have no feelings, when Liu Xun has Huang Yueying outside, Zhou Budo inside, and the solid foundation he has laid, it may not be impossible to win the world and re-erect the Han.

This is Liu Zhang's purpose of fooling Zhou Budo, and looking at Zhou Budo's idiot expression, it should be a success.

"Okay, I promised." Zhou Budo reacted for a long time and agreed depressedly.

Defecting to Liu Bei, it was just his own joke, from the abandonment of Chang'an, Zhou Budo did see that Liu Bei was the kind of person Liu Zhang said, and he was willing to completely obey the military advisor.

In the past, Liu Bei guarded Xuzhou, and he should have given up, Jiangdong was still a barren land at that time, leading Xuzhou soldiers to the south, who could be the enemy? Liu Bei Shou died in Xuzhou, which shows that Liu Bei attaches great importance to the city, but this time in the face of the huge **Chang'an, Liu Bei listened to Zhuge Liang's abandonment.

However, although Liu Bei can listen to people's words, he has Zhuge Liang, what else do he have to do himself? People like Liu Bei, although they are willing to serve, but under him, only one person can shine.

As for Professor Liu Xun, it's not entirely because he wants to learn those knowledge, one sheep is also driving, and two sheep are also booming, Zhou Budo has his own reasons in Chengdu, which is not enough for outsiders, Professor Liu Xun, by the way.

It's just that Liu Xun's elm head gives him a headache.

"Fourier, the-not-theorem, Newton, Newton, I must learn you all the best, even if I have to face the elm head." Zhou Budo clenched his fists, and was extremely excited at the thought of learning so much knowledge, jumping and jumping in place, and all the passing maids looked stupid.

The Yizhou decree was implemented, Huang Quan Wang Fu cultivated agriculture and mulberry, prospered commerce, Zhang Ren trained soldiers, and Ma Jun Zuobo studied weapons and machinery, all in an orderly manner.

Under the auspices of Huang Yueying, Jingzhou embarked on three major events, one is to eliminate the thieves, there are too many thieves in Jingzhou, Huang Yueying used a simple method to erect a model.

Huang Yueying put a group of bandits who are willing to recruit An, through the support of the government, to become bigger and stronger, so that the surrounding bandits are all looking forward, and the leader of this group of bandits, it is rumored that he has done all kinds of bad things.

But when this gang of bandits was at its peak, the leader announced that he had surrendered to the government, Huang Yueying treated him warmly, and the leader of the "evildoer" was also given a big official position.

The shock of this move is great, the biggest thieves have surrendered, the other thieves are naturally panicked, and the "evil" thieves have been treated well, so these who are a little restrained should be treated well, plus these people have not been thieves for a long time, so they have the intention of surrendering.

At the same time, Huang Yueying made great efforts to eliminate a group of stubborn bandits, all the thieves were cut in half, and the corpses were divided.

The contrast between Zhao'an and extermination is too strong, and Huang Yueying's two battles in Fancheng, killing the prestige of General Lejin, coupled with Fan Lixiang's popularity among the people, the bandits and thieves tied their hands, and accepted Zhao'an in large numbers, the old, weak, sick and disabled were sent back to the township, and the fields were allocated, and the rest of the elite were all incorporated into the world's famous and prestigious Fanjia army, and the situation in Jingzhou was quickly reversed.

Cui Zhouping used his popularity to recruit more than 200 literate children of the Han family and Shu tribes, and after teaching basic governance and handling official documents, all of them were sent to remote areas to take office.

This move greatly stimulated other Hanmen and Shu clans, and those who wanted to get ahead poured into Cui Zhouping's name, and Cui Zhouping and other professors began to officially run the school.

Jingzhou's people's livelihood has not recovered, and commerce cannot rise, Huang Yueying took advantage of Jingzhou's favorable position as the belly of the world, did not do business and did not open workshops, only as a hub for Yizhou products to be imported from other places, through convenient water transportation and the geographical location connecting the east, west, north and south, Yizhou cheap and rare products, a steady stream of other states and foreign countries in the world to spread, through transportation, but also a lot of Yizhou commercial development dividends.

Through this money, and then to develop people's livelihood and commerce, Jingzhou began to show signs of recovery, with the improvement of life, ordinary people to Liu Zhang and Fan Lixiang more supportive, Jingzhou folk have children's songs sung:

"The Red Emperor is reincarnated, the mandate of heaven is crowned king, and the red star descends to earth to save the common people."

The first two sentences are about Liu Zhang, and the last two are about Fan Lixiang. It can be seen that the people's expectations are high.

And these are the results of a year or two of internal affairs. And time is not so fast, as Liu Zhang and Huang Yueying expected, accidents will always come faster than tomorrow.

Until these results are achieved, there will always be some people who will not rest on their laurels.

End of August 200 A.D.

The four branches are different from last year, was deliberately arranged after the harvest season, with the bumper harvest in Yizhou, the four branches were also held as scheduled, as in previous years, there were more craftsmen, doctors, and martial artists, and there were few literati.

Especially the craftsmen, a large number of craftsmen and handicraftsmen, seeing the status of the craftsmen in the craftsman's house in Chengdu, are envious, especially Ma Jun, who has a rank of two thousand stones, which they never dared to think.

The success of Ma Junzuobo and others has set up a monument for them, and they are all moving towards this monument, and all those who have a little expertise have poured into Chengdu.

However, this year's selection of craftsmen has changed from last year, and it is no longer purely to see who is skillful, but to arrange the vacant positions in the workshop and the craftsman's room in advance, and only those who echo the vacant positions can participate in the selection.

Of course, the exception is that your skill is so powerful that you can set up a workshop independently, if so, Zhang Song, the bank priest, will find you and set up a workshop with you.

The workshop and the craftsman's room and the hierarchy system also make these ideal craftsmen more conscientious and hard-working, the workshop technicians want to enter the craftsman's room, the ordinary craftsman's room wants to enter the intermediate craftsman's room, the intermediate craftsman's room wants to enter the senior craftsman's room, and the activity of technology development is greatly improved.

There are also slightly more doctors than in previous years, and the martial artists, because of their great success, and the reward of the Wuxi barbarians, a large number of barbarians and Qiang people entered the martial arts examination, and the influx of these barbarians, some are good at shooting, some are good at rock climbing, and the overall physical strength is also higher than that of the Han people, which is the new vitality in the Sichuan army, and Liu Zhang was transferred to the secret cavalry and infantry trained by Zhang Ren in large numbers.

Chengdu Yin Mansion, Yin Bai walked to the room with his head down, passing by the living room, his father Yin Yuan was sitting in the middle of the lobby talking to Old Man Yan and stopped Yin Bai.

"Where have you been? Crying and mourning, I'm not dead yet. ”

Yin Bai said sullenly: "Don't mention it, the business of Jingzhou bricks was robbed by the Qu family, and we only got a red brick and white brick business, alas, I am really angry." ”

Yin Bai couldn't help but be angry when he thought of this, he really wanted to beat Quxi's teenage ghost to death on the wall.

"Are you going to cry for this?"

Yin Yuan walked down from his seat and glanced at Yin Bai, Yin Bai was tanned all over his body because of his business, he had just come back from the big sun, his clothes were soaked and sticking to his body, and there were big beads of sweat on his face and forehead, except for a gorgeous dress, he was no different from a farmer.

Yin Yuan said angrily: "Look at what you look like, are you still the eldest young master of the Yin family?" You're about to lose my face, how many times have I told you? Business is a small skill, you can make money, you can make money, if you can't make it, forget it, do you think you are a businessman who does not know the morality of the saint? At all times, the land is fundamental. ”

"Ugh." Yin Yuan said and sighed: "You see it's been almost a year, and our Yin family's production area has not only not expanded, but because several Yin family members betrayed their ancestors, because the family was sick, they sold the land to the government, how can it be justified, it is simply a traitor in the clan."

You don't care about these things, what bricks do you worry about? I think your head is a brick. ”

"But." Yin Bai said unconvinced: "I think business can make money and glorify the family, why must it be land?" Besides, if you have money, can't you buy land? If you were willing to pay a higher price than the government to buy the land of those families, wouldn't our Yin family have no loss? ”

"You still say." Yin Yuan yelled: "If I pay a high price, how can I buy other mud-legged land in the future?" The government takes the taxes we pay, of course, we can squander them, can we compare to Liu Zhang? You make money in business, no matter how much money you make, you still don't buy land? If you can't buy land now, what's the use of making more money? ”

Yin Yuan was furious.

"But I just think it's a lot more fun to do business than to collect rent."

"You ......"

"Alright, alright." Old Man Yan stepped down from his high position, comforted Yin Yuan, who was panting in his nostrils, and said to Yin Bai: "Young Master Yin, you should also listen to your father's advice, he is for your good, but also for the good of the whole family."

What's more, let's not talk about making money to buy land, we buy land at a high price, and the government extracts heavy taxes from it, which is purely an unprecedented harsh policy, and we will not talk about it for now.

It is the recent order of Huang Quan Wang Fu to let the people monitor our movements, if we have the heart of rebellion, our property and land, all owned by those lowly peasants, what is the reason? ”

"Master Yan, wouldn't it be okay if we didn't rebel?" Yin Bai said.

Yin Yuan was about to scold, but Old Man Yan pressed him down and said bitterly to Yin Yuan: "Son, why don't you understand?" This shows that Liu Zhang never thought of letting us go, we are the thorn in his Liu Zhang's eyes, and he is pulling those mud legs to deal with us.

If you still don't believe it, then Liu Zhang recently organized Qin Mi and others to train officials, obediently, do you know that Zheng Lao Er in Zhulinwan? Light a pipe all day long and brag about that.

I have been rolling in the field for more than 20 years, and I am almost forty years old, just because I used to work as a handyman in my study for two years, and I know a few words, hey, I was chosen, and I came back recently and bragged about what I wanted to be Hucao in Zhuti County, do you say this is like a word?

What did Liu Zhang do with these untouchables as officials? Isn't it to remove the foundations of our race? If these untouchables are formed in the future, let the untouchables ride on our heads to and pee, Liu Zhang will think that we are useless, and will kick us away, and find a random reason, which is the fate of Jiangzhou Hanzhong.

Look at Xiangyang, 60,000 people, Liu Zhang didn't blink his eyes, he killed them all, and the surrounding people were all cheering, don't you still understand Liu Zhang's thoughts? ”

Yin Bai groaned and didn't speak, it sounded like it was indeed very unfavorable to the world, but Yin Bai felt that as long as he did business well and didn't break the law, why did Liu Zhang kill himself?

It's just hard to tell.

"Master Yan, don't talk about it, this rebel lacks discipline, I'll fix him when I find a time." Yin Yuan glanced at Yin Bai, who was even more depressed than when he started to come in, and entered the house sullenly.

Master Yan sighed: "Ling Lang's matter is not in a hurry, what is urgent is that now Liu Zhang has made this move, as long as those who are literate are recruited to be officials, if this continues, we will have no way to live." ”

The three treasures of the government and the princes of the family, talents, influence, and financial resources, led by talents, followed by influence, and financial resources are the last, and now the biggest reliance is shaken, and Old Man Yan, as the head of the largest local family in Chengdu, is naturally worried.

Yin Yuan also nodded: "We have to take action, otherwise when Liu Zhang trains those mud legs, we will no longer have the strength to threaten him." ”

"Don't do it." Old man Yan hurriedly said: "Watch Liu Zhang's actions, calm and ruthless, leave no room, and are used to luring people to rebel, the Sichuan army is strong, and loyal to Liu Zhang, I'm afraid he is waiting for us to rebel now, so we must not move lightly, otherwise Jiangzhou Hanzhong Wuling and Xiangyang are our end, we must find a perfect opportunity." ”

"The perfect timing?" Yin Yuan frowned.

Old man Yan nodded: "Yes, the perfect timing, and we can't come out, Liu Zhang's law is correct, it's not easy to get along, we have to wait, Liu Zhang has offended too many people, we don't make the first one, only contact the people who need to be contacted, provoke the people who can be provoked, see who provokes trouble first, until we have a complete grasp, we will strike again, and vow to wipe out Liu Zhang." ”

Old Man Yan gritted his teeth and finished speaking, his white beard trembled, and Yin Yuan nodded deeply.

Brazil, Qujia Tea Plantation.

Qu Xi walked into the manor with a family, and the family said while fanning Qu Xi: "Childe, you are really amazing, although our Qu family is the first family in Brazil, the financial resources are not as good as the Yin family in Chengdu, Gongzi actually won the business of Jingzhou green bricks, this time we can make a lot of money." ”

The family couldn't help but be overjoyed, Qu Xi just nodded slightly, Qu Xi was the grandson of the former Qu family, after the man was killed, Qu Xi became the only heir to the Qu family's property, the government did not take any property from the Qu family, all of it was handed over to Qu Xi, and protected these properties from being taken away by others because of Quxi's weak strength.

So now, the Qu family is the first family in Brazil, and Quxi's property is the first in the Qu family, and now Quxi is alone, relying on a group of family members to guard all the property, in the past nine months, Quxi has doubled the Qujia industry through business, taking advantage of the east wind of Yizhou business, which has made many people jealous and hateful.

And the most accusatory of Quxi is that Quxi was killed by Liu Zhang, and he also catered to Liu Zhang's business policy, which was simply disobedient and unfilial, and often poked Quxi's backbone.

Qu Xi laughed at all of these and ignored them, and even those people who made fun of him didn't bother to pay attention to them and stopped interacting with them.

Walking into the house, Qu Xi said indifferently: "This time Yin Bai loses, he will not give up, and our Qu family's financial resources are still too weak, compared with the wealthy family in Chengdu, we can't get on the stage, especially we don't have the support of the clansmen, the situation is very grim, and we must open up business routes."

Only when our financial resources are in the eyes of Uncle Liu Huang, will the government look at us differently, will they pay attention to us, and we can make more money through the government, you know? ”

"Yes, yes." Jia Ding smiled all over his face: "The little one thinks that a lot of goods coming in from the Western Regions are good, we can't just sell them, I think some things should also be bought, and they will definitely make a lot of money."

It's that Shuzhong is too far out of Yumen Pass, not to mention buying it, even if it is sold, it will be exploited by merchants from other states and counties, alas. ”

The family sighed, and at this moment, Qu Xi saw a woman in white sitting at the gate of the hall, and the woman looked at the ground, it was his sister Qu Lingchen.

If there is anyone left in the Qu family now, apart from himself, there will only be this sister.

"Sister." Qu Xi shouted.

Qu Lingchen raised his head and didn't speak, Qu Xi left the house, and said happily: "Sister, why are you here?" ”

"Do you know I'm your sister?" Qu Lingchen stood up and looked at Qu Xi coldly, like a frost on the eyebrows of the distant mountains.

Qu Xi's smile froze on his face, he knew what Qu Lingchen meant, when he was in the tea garden, Qu Lingchen had already shown himself his intention to take revenge.

For a long time, Qu Xi didn't care what the clansmen thought of themselves, but now that her sister is like this, Qu Xi has some heartache.

"Let me ask you, when I went to Guiyang, did you inform my junior sister?" Qu Lingchen went to Wuxi to meet Xiao Furong, and the relationship between the two senior sisters was originally very good, but since Qu Lingchen came down the mountain, because of Liu Zhang's relationship, every time they meet, they are swords and soldiers.

This time, Xiao Furong and Liu Zhang were finally separated, Qu Lingchen went to see Xiao Furong, the two sisters talked about many things, and Qu Lingchen also knew that someone sent a letter to inform Xiao Furong when he was in Guiyang.

It's just that Xiao Furong still thought it was just a joke, and Liu Zhang was never assassinated that night.

Qu Lingchen naturally didn't say anything.

Qu Xi raised his head and looked at Qu Lingchen, his eyes had already told Qu Lingchen the answer.

Qu Lingchen clenched his sword scabbard and looked at Qu Xi: "I've been thinking, it was you or Huangfu Xuan who informed Liu Zhang, but I didn't expect it to be you, Qu Xi, do you know what you're doing?" Liu Zhang is the great enemy of our Qu family, you actually helped him? Do you know what other people think of us? Are you worthy of the dead grandfather and the Qu family's more than seventy mouths? ”

"But that in itself was a misunderstanding." Qu Xi replied loudly, maybe he also felt that he was not confident enough, turned his head, and said softly: "That letter, it was Huang Fuxuan who told me your whereabouts, and I wrote it to Xiao Furong, I don't want you to have anything, and Huang Fuxuan understands you, sister, ask yourself, is it your intention to kill Liu Zhang?"

Grandpa kidnapped Huang Yue's aunt first, and he was the biggest force to support Pang Xi, although this could not cover up Liu Zhang's great revenge, but from Liu Zhang's point of view, he was not wrong.

As a child of the Qu family, I can't think about Liu Zhang, but I have to continue the Qu family and take revenge, I never thought about it, even if I Quxi is afraid of death, but I am even more afraid that the Qu family will be cut off, and you, sister, you are my only relative in this world, and the only person I care about, I don't want you to have anything to do.

Sister, I don't care what others think, whether it's calling me a coward or calling me unfilial, I just want you to come back, and the two of us have a good life together. ”

After Qu Xi finished speaking, his face was lonely, he entered the back room, and when he walked past Qu Lingchen, he paused for a moment, and finally walked straight in.

Qu Xi originally wanted to say something, but he knew that he didn't avenge his family, and he couldn't make sense anyway, but he didn't have the idea of revenge at all, and he didn't have it from the beginning.

There is no right or wrong in Brazil, and it turned out later that Liu Zhang had realized his mistake, Qu Tian entered the Meritorious Pavilion, protected the Qu family, and did not cover up the fact of the massacre, which was enough for a prince, although Qu Xi was sad, but he did not have hatred for the Sichuan army.

But how do you say this to outsiders?

Qu Xi's heart has long since died. Qu Lingchen is the only person he wants to explain now, but he knows that his sister's hatred is something he can't resolve.

Qu Xi walked into the house and left a letter for Qu Lingchen, Qu Lingchen opened it to see that it was a letter from a wealthy family in Chengdu inviting Quxi Chongyang to a banquet, how did Qu Lingchen not understand that this was someone forming a party in private to unite against Liu Zhang's strength.

Wu Jun and the anti-Liu Zhang alliance have long noticed this, although Yizhou seems to be peaceful and peaceful, in fact, there is a huge crisis hidden.

The letter was crumpled by Qu Xi, all wrinkled, and Qu Lingchen could almost see Qu Xi's face when he read the letter.

The younger brother really doesn't plan to take revenge.

Do you still have to insist on yourself?

"Ask yourself, is it your intention to kill Liu Zhang?" Qu Lingchen remembered Qu Xi's words, Huangfu Xuan understood himself, he went into the mountains to learn art ten years ago, not because he liked martial arts much, but because he couldn't get used to what his family did.

The filthiness of the family is very clear to the children of each family, one group of people regards this filthiness as a sense of superiority, and the other type of people are numb to this filth and go with the flow.

And Qu Lingchen unfortunately became the third type of person, he hated the behavior of the clan, Qu Lingchen resolutely ran away from home because he saw his grandfather forcing a family to sleep in the wilderness and die miserably.

Huangfu Xuan understands his own heart, what Liu Zhang does is also what he hopes to do, what he hopes to change, otherwise on Yunmengze Island, he would not be moved by Liu Zhang's feelings.

It can be seen from which proclamation in Xiangyang that Liu Zhang has really paid his actions and efforts.

If you are not a member of the Qu family, you are just a spectator of the Brazilian massacre, what is your mentality now?

After the Xiangyang Massacre, the alliance absorbed many children of the Xiangyang clan who were missing, and they hated Liu Zhang to the core, just like themselves, but Qu Lingchen felt that the Xiangyang clan did it and was exterminated, although it was too heavy, but it was not worthy of sympathy.

And the Brazilian Qu family, first funded Pang Xi, and then hijacked Huang Yue, Liu Zhang did not punish the clan, but just destroyed the door, if he was just a spectator, should he feel that Liu Zhang was merciful?

Qu Lingchen's thoughts were chaotic, and he may never be able to forget that scene, before running out of the refugee camp, Liu Zhang's deep kiss was not only that feeling, but also his own psychology at that time.

In addition to panicking, abruptness, and being at a loss, he didn't even feel a little disgusted, but he noticed in fear that he felt a trace of happiness, which was so specific that Qu Lingchen couldn't deny his feelings.

That feeling of happiness is buried deeply, but it is clear.

That feeling made Qu Lingchen panic, so he came here to find the hatred he felt he should have by criticizing Qu Xi.

But Qu Xi's words not only did not bring back the feeling of hatred, but became even more hesitant.

At this moment, Wu Jun appeared at the gate of the manor with a graceful posture, Wu Jun signaled to Qu Lingchen, Qu Lingchen hesitated for a while, but walked over silently.

………… Five Creeks. Youxi tribe earthen village.

On a large earthen dam, the leaders and lords of the five streams: Youxi, Chenxi, Wuxi, Yuexi, Wuxi, and other river basins and more than a dozen ethnic groups gathered, all of whom were angry.

"Mud cloth (Miao people often use swearing, eat, it should be similar to **), if this continues, the people in my Dazhai are going to run out, this year's weather is hot, I can't hit the prey, and I went to the Han people's place to get rations, what to say that I will come back after planting a year,.

And what kind of move, there are hundreds of people in my village, and more than a dozen of them have run, you say that people are not angry. ”

In the tribes, the young adult is the guarantee of survival, and a teenager has to feed women and children (the elderly are usually left to fend for themselves), and the loss of a teenager is a great loss for these small tribes.

Not only will the prey decrease, but they will also be bullied by other tribes, so they will pay special attention to the fact that the village of hundreds of people, running more than a dozen youths, will greatly reduce the strength.
