With the military system of the Han Dynasty, the general is set up below the hussar general, the general of the chariot cavalry, and the general of Wei, all of which are not lightly awarded, and the following is the front, right, left, and rear generals, and then the four marches, four towns, four ping, and four security generals, these are counted as famous generals, under the famous generals, there are miscellaneous generals such as General Fubo, General Po, General Yangwei, etc., and then it is the Zhonglang general, think about the time when the Yellow Turban was in the first chaos of the seven years of Guanghe, Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, who were in charge of the handsome seal, were just the North Zhonglang generals and the left and right Zhonglang generals, and later Huangfu Song broke the enemy meritorious, Only then was he promoted to the general of the left chariot, which shows that the generals of the late Han Dynasty Emperor Ling were not only scarce, but also quite noble. Compared with the Three Kingdoms era when generals were flying all over the sky, He Jin recommended Liu Ze as a former general or right general at this time, which shows that He Jin worked quite hard to win over Liu Ze.

Liu Ze had no waves on the ancient well. "How to reward the saint, there is a holy truth, those of us who are courtiers just listen carefully to the orders is, bother He Yilang to return to the general, the general's kindness is in the heart, demanding the high-ranking officials, not in the next long-cherished wish."

He Hao couldn't figure it out, there are still people in the world who are indifferent to fame and fortune like Liu Ze, although it is not uncommon for people to be indifferent to fame and fortune, but people like Liu Ze who are bloody and sacrifice their lives to kill the enemy without intending to become famous, I am afraid that it is really unique, but since Liu Ze has no intention of paying attention to the general's solicitation, it is useless to say more, He Hao got up and said goodbye.

As soon as He Hao left, Jia Xu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei walked in, and they stayed next door, so they naturally heard it clearly. Jia Xu stroked his palms and laughed: "The name of the lord is world-famous, but everyone in this capital knows it, and it's not just the Yuan family who wants to tie up. Even General He tried his best to win over, why shouldn't the lord be, and General He was the backer, it was difficult if he didn't want to soar. ”

Liu Ze smiled faintly and said: "He Jin relied on his sister to be the queen, so he was able to sit in the position of a general, but in fact, he was a short-sighted person with no ink and no ink. ”

Jia Xu said leisurely: "Eunuchs and relatives." These are two forces that can completely control the government. If a person who is clear wants to gain a foothold in the DPRK and China, if he does not have a backer, it will be difficult. Take refuge in the eunuchs. It is despised by most clear streamers. With the exception of a very few unscrupulous people, few dared to do so openly. But take refuge in relatives. But there is no taboo, although relying on the harem is nepotism, but after all, most of the relatives are also from wealthy families. and the Qingliushi people are also considered to be in the same breath. Yuan Benchu, the eldest son of the servant Yuan Feng, is now working under He Jin. Since the lord has tried with the ten permanent servants like fire and water, if he offends He Jin, he is afraid that his career will be dusty, and it will be even more difficult to go further. ”

Liu Ze said: "It doesn't matter, I have already seen through the intrigue and intrigue in the court, and I don't want to be in the middle of it, this time the emperor will give a reward, or not a reward, this Luoyang officialdom, I don't want to stay for a day." If you want to live in troubled times and create a foundation, you will naturally jump out of this court, the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high for birds to fly. ”

Zhang Fei laughed and said: "Big brother, I support you, what's so good about staying in the capital, you have to look at this face and that face all day long, it's really unpleasant." ”

At this time, a Jinying guard shouted outside the door: "Report." ”

Liu Ze said: "Come in." ”

But the Jin Yingwei only saluted Liu Ze, but didn't report anything to him, just muttered a few words softly in Pan Feng's ear, Pan Feng nodded slightly, and then waved his hand to let him retreat.

Everyone present was a little inexplicable, although Jin Yingwei has always been in charge of Pan Feng, but no matter how big or small, Pan Feng will report to Liu Ze, and now it is mysterious, and I don't know what medicine is sold in this Pan Feng gourd.

Liu Ze had noticed Pan Feng's abnormal behavior a long time ago, but he was too busy for a while to bother asking, and then said: "Pan Feng, what kind of fame are you doing, mysterious and secretive." ”

Pan Feng bowed and said: "Back to the lord, Pan Feng is reporting the annual report on the hour according to the lord's orders. ”

At the end of each year, Liu Ze asked each branch of Jinyingwei to submit an annual report, which involved the civil and military conditions of various places and the development status of Jinyingwei in various places, the more detailed the better. In addition to the annual report, the local branch offices also provide information to the General Administration from time to time, and many emergencies and heavy events must be reported quickly without leaving behind or omitting to report.

However, this annual report was handed in by Liu Ze to all branches before the end of the year, and there was no need for Pan Feng to make it mysterious, Liu Ze couldn't help but say: "Since it is an annual report, you report it openly, why do you need to hide it like this?" Pan Feng said: "In order to celebrate the triumphant return of the lord, in addition to the annual report, all the branches prepared a congratulatory gift and sent it to the capital. ”

Liu Ze frowned slightly and said with a slight displeasure: "It's okay for the Jinying Guards from all over the country to do their jobs, why do you need to make any congratulatory gifts, is it possible that I still need them to slip around and shoot horses?" ”

Pan Feng said: "How dare my subordinates, it's just that the local branch offices remember that the lord's triumphant return to Beijing coincides with the New Year's Festival, and they prepare some local specialties to congratulate, and they are also submitted with the annual report, and they don't need to occupy manpower for special transportation. ”

Liu Ze glanced at him and said, "Go back?" It doesn't cost a lot of manpower and material resources to go back, Pan Feng, did you let the donkey kick your head or do you want me to be happy? ”

Pan Feng hurriedly said: "My subordinates don't dare." ”

Liu Zedao: "Forget it, since it is their heart, I can only be disrespectful, but Pan Feng, pass the order, but in the future, I will not take it as an example, what I want to see is their achievements, not these fancy articles." ”

Pan Feng was overjoyed and said, "Obey the orders of the lord." ”

Liu Ze said: "Let's go, let's go and see what good things are." ”

Pan Feng was busy leading the way, and Liu Zejia, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei left together. The congratulatory gifts sent by the Jinying Health Branch Office in various places were placed in the side courtyard by Pan Feng'an, and the room was almost stuffed full. Pan Feng introduced to Liu Ze which branch office sent these congratulatory gifts. Liu Ze regarded it as a fact that they were all local specialties from all over the world, but these local specialties were not ordinary, including century-old ginseng, high-grade deer antler velvet, Tianjiu wings, bear paws, bird's nest and so on. The congratulatory gift of the Central South Branch Office was a large basket of fruits, which contained coconut, lychee, longan, citrus and other tropical fruits.

Liu Ze is most interested in lychee, in the previous life of the plane airlift, he also tasted this kind of Lingnan No. 1 fruit praised by Su Dongpo, lychee has a day color change, two days of fragrance change, three days of flavor change, four days of color and fragrance to go away characteristics, the most difficult to preserve and transport, in ancient times when the traffic was not yet developed, want to eat fresh and original lychee that is simply a luxury, the most favored by Emperor Tang Ming Yang Guifei in order to enjoy the delicacy of lychee, I don't know how many stagecoaches died of exhaustion, a ride on the red dust concubine smiled, no one knew that it was lychee. It stands to reason that the month of lychee listing should be between May and June, and now it is the end of the age, I don't know how they preserve, open the sealed clay pot, the lychee has been shelled and cored, soaked in light sugar water, dare to be regarded as canned lychee. Liu Ze took out one and tasted it, although it was not as delicious as a fresh lychee, but it was rare to be able to preserve this kind of Cheng dù.

After Liu Ze tasted it, he fished out a few more and let everyone share it. Jia Xu They have never eaten lychees, and under one taste, they exclaimed continuously, the world is delicious, and there is no other.

Zhang Fei picked up a brown coconut, looked at it carefully, and muttered, "Can you eat this thing?" ”

Liu Ze took a knife, opened a small hole in the top of the coconut, and handed it to Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei took the letter suspiciously, and under Liu Ze's cowardly gaze, he tasted a sip of clear and transparent coconut water, and shouted: "It's so fucking sweet!" With a of his neck, he drank the coconut water with a clatter. Liu Ze cut the coconut again and took out the coconut meat for everyone to share.

Jia Xu sighed: "I can't imagine that the wild and smoky land of Jiaozhou can produce such delicious things. ”

Liu Ze smiled, suddenly had a thought, and said to Pan Feng: "There is a tree in the south of Jiaozhou, about a few zhang high, evergreen in all seasons, the leaves are oval, and the bark is cut with a knife, and milky white sap will flow out, which is called a rubber tree." Pan Feng, you immediately ordered the Jinyingwei of the Central and South Branch Office to find this kind of tree at any cost, cut its trunk, and take its sap. You go to the bank and withdraw 100,000 taels of gold for rubber tapping, and this is the most important thing, and they must complete it. ”

As soon as he made a move, he was 100,000 gold, and he went to the barren land of Jiaonan to find an unheard of tree, Liu Ze was really generous, but Pan Feng didn't ask why, but just said: "I don't know how much the lord needs?" ”

Liu Ze said: "The more the merrier." ”

"No. Subordinates should do their best to complete it. Although Pan Feng didn't understand what the lord wanted this thing for, Liu Ze put it forward so solemnly and allocated a huge amount of money, obviously the importance of this kind of thing is self-evident.

Zhang Fei's curiosity was the heaviest, and he couldn't help asking, "Big brother, is it useful for you to spend so much money on this thing?" ”

Does natural rubber work? Damn, this thing is a treasure, widely used in later generations, it can be said that there is no modern civilization without rubber, synthetic rubber can not be done under the current conditions, but natural rubber is not difficult to find, in the tropics of South America and Southeast Asia are widely distributed. With rubber tires, you can greatly reduce the bumps of the vehicle, greatly improve the comfort and speed of the vehicle, and as a sealing device, rubber is indispensable, and many machinery are inseparable from rubber products. In short, the availability of rubber will undoubtedly bring the scientific and technological level of this era to a new level. (To be continued......)
