The summer breeze is mixed with the fragrance of flowers, sweeping all over the mountains and forests.

Ye Chang stretched and slowly sat up from the pavilion.

"Whoever realizes the big dream first, I know it in my life. The thatched cottage sleeps enough in spring, and the day outside the window is delayed...... Chunming, can there be a layman visiting? ”

Pretending to be the real Mr. Wolong, he asked Chunming, who was standing in front of him.

"Yes." Chunming said very honestly: "Jiao Langjun is back. ”

"Okay, you Ye Shiyi, you actually said that a certain person is a layman!" Jiao Sui's loud voice over there had already arrived, and he said it so smoothly, obviously he had already drunk: "You Ye Shiyi is Zhuge Liang, and I am not Liu Xuande who cares about the thatched house!" ”

"Huh!" Ye Chang sat upright: "It turns out that you also know the allusion of the Dao?" ”

"How don't you know, when I set off, Chang'an City was already full of "Embroidered Portraits of the Three Kingdoms", and now it is time to visit the thatched house!"

Ye Chang improved movable type printing, and after using copper movable type, the quality of printing was significantly improved, and the cost was reduced as he expected. According to his own memory, and then edited by Fang's family, the first batch of works to test the water was his New Year's paintings, and the New Year's paintings were slightly cut and bound, and they became the popular "Embroidered Three Kingdoms Romance" on the market today.

Originally, he came up with the idea of "The New World Story", but the first time the "New World Story" was printed was not cared about at all, but the "Embroidered Portrait of the Three Kingdoms" as a New Year's painting was very popular.

This made Ye Chang ridiculed by the Fang clan a lot, although "The New World Theory" also had Fang's contribution.

Now the whole book is out of twelve volumes.,The plot has just passed the tongue battle group Confucian.,The last volume is Changbanpo.,The next volume is the three-look thatched house.。 These three volumes were all published at the beginning of this month, and I didn't expect Jiao Sui to see them in Chang'an.

Although the Tang Dynasty is a prosperous cultural era, in fact, there is little entertainment, especially books, always looking at Zhaoming anthologies and a few poetry collections, which is really not interesting. Ye Chang's words just fill this gap.

"How is it selling in Chang'an City?" Ye Chang also asked with interest.

"Needless to say, Luoyang paper is expensive, in the bookstore in the east and west markets, people come to the door every day to name this, and the shoddy imitations on the street can be sold for a hundred wen!"

Nowadays, the price of the book is very expensive, and the price of a volume of Taoyuan Romance is 250 Wen, which is already cheap in the book. Out of prudence, only 500 copies of the first volume were printed, 200 copies were sent to Chang'an, 200 copies were placed in Luoyang, and the remaining 100 copies were sold in the rest of the country.

The result was a snap-up.

Fifteen hundred copies were printed in the second volume, and 1,000 copies of the first volume were printed at the same time. The result was still a snatch, not only that, but merchants from other places rushed to Xiuwu County to order this book by name.

At today's price, a print run of 250 copies is enough to preserve the book, and 500 copies are profitable, and by now 4,000 copies have been printed in each volume, which is gradually saturated, and the total income of each volume has reached 1,000.

After deducting the cost, the profit is as high as **100 percent!

Only this book is enough to make the Ye family prosperous for a long time.

"Luoyang paper is expensive, a certain thing is only a rumor, but I don't want to see it now." Jiao Sui praised it again, and then said with a smile: "However, although a certain person is not Liu Xuande, he also came to visit Sangu, and was ordered to send a letter to Ye Langjun, and that person himself is afraid that he is also halfway!" ”

Ye Chang waved his hand a little boringly: "You just like to cause trouble for me, it was a cattle fight case at the beginning, what is it this time?" ”

"It's not that someone is causing trouble for Lang Jun, it's really that you are too famous now." Jiao Sui smiled: "Moreover, I also feel that with your talent, it would be a great pity if you didn't come out to serve the country!" ”

"Hugh said these boring words, in a peaceful world, my generation is useless." Ye Chang said: "What is it?" ”

"A group of Nanban with six edicts, I can't get through in Chang'an City, and I don't know where I heard about it, our ball market is booming, relying on Ye Langjun's wisdom, you have a way to go straight to the eldest princess of Yuzhen, so you came to find us."

"The Southern Barbarians of the Six Edicts?" Ye Chang said in surprise.

The so-called Six Edicts, before coming to this world, Ye Chang only knew a Nanzhao, and the leader of the Nanzhao, Pi Luoge, was named the king of Yunnan by Li Longji, and was also given the name of Mengguiyi, unifying the entire Six Edicts.

"That Nanzhao has not unified the six edicts?" He asked, somewhat curious.

"Nanzhao is pressing forward step by step, if we can't think of a countermeasure, our tribe will be finished."

Just as Ye Chang and Jiao Sui were talking, in Xiuwu County, a group of Nanban people were gathering together.

The leader among them turned out to be a woman, this woman was very handsome, dressed in silver jewelry, her eyes were smart, and her clothes were also rare white cloth in the Central Plains.

"But what can we do, Tang Tianzi is clearly biased towards Nanzhao, and we can't do anything!" Another barbarian.

Everyone's eyes looked at the girl who was the leader, the girl gritted her teeth, and her eyes showed a fierce light: "So, this Ye Langjun must be asked to help, he is our Mr. Kong Ming!" ”

At the beginning, Zhuge Liang crossed the Lushui and felled the barren, and the virtue was applied together, and the Nanban was broken. Although there are also stories that Nanban made up about Meng Yu's seven captures of Zhuge Liang, in fact, the Miao Man's tribes highly respected Zhuge Liang very much.

"Exactly, if we can't find support in Datang, we will go to find support from the Tibetans......"

"Nonsense, the Tibetan people asked our county lord to go to make peace by name, and if they hadn't cheated, how would our tribe have ended up like this?"

"Hugh is going to quarrel, if Tang Tianzi really doesn't help my department, it won't be too late to go to Tibet at that time." The woman spoke, "For the sake of our tribe, let me go to Tibet and kiss, I ...... I'm willing, too! ”

The crowd was silent for a while, and one year the elder said, "I hope ...... I can invite that Mr. Wolong. ”

"Three visits, didn't they say in the embroidery book of the Tang Dynasty that they wanted to visit three times, and we prepared a generous gift for three visits!"

"What if you can't do it three times?" There are still people who say frustrating words.

"If it doesn't work out three times, then use other methods, I don't believe it, we can't bring that Mr. Wolong back!"

After everyone talked for a long time, the girl sighed abruptly, but she just said it, and it didn't help.

They stayed in Xiuwu all night, and the next morning, they prepared enough gifts and came to Wolong Valley.

There was still some distance away from Wu Zepi, and the girl said: "We have traveled all the way, and the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, but there is no such situation that makes people marvel...... Why? ”

"It's clean, the official roads here are clean, and the ditches on both sides of the road have been cleaned...... It seems that the local pro-people officials are quite talented......"

"You barbarians are wrong, our side is clean, that's what Ye Langjun said, the dirty land, there will be poisonous insects lurking, and when the spring is warm, it is easy to get miasma, so this winter he took us to clean these up!" A pedestrian next to him heard them speak, but he was not afraid of these barbarians, and said with a smile: "Desilting and removing filth, although the imperial court has already issued a clear order, but in the countryside, who will pay attention?" ”

In the Tang Dynasty law, it is forbidden to splash filth on the streets, and if it is discovered, the government can arrest people and beat the board, but the actual implementation is not so strict.

"Ye Langjun speaks, you listen like this?"

"That's natural, you don't know, listen to Ye Langjun's words, last year, the family made a few more dollars, and those who are disobedient, even if they don't encounter any changes, they can only watch the money earned by others drool."

When the barbarian girl heard this, her eyebrows and eyes curved and smiled, and her eyes were like moon buds, which was very moving. The passers-by who answered couldn't help but be stunned when they saw it, and secretly praised in their hearts: Although the barbarians are uncivilized, this little lady is extremely beautiful!

After saying goodbye to the passer-by, the barbarian girl continued to walk, her mood seemed to be better, and the people next to her couldn't help but ask, "County Lord, why are you happy?" ”

"Naturally, because I heard what the man said, that Ye Langjun has some ability."

"It's just that it can be desilted and decorated, it's not a good thing, what we want is a warrior who can go into battle, if he can lead the troops to fight, a literati like Zhuge Kongming is good......"

"You are wrong, why is the Southern Zhao stronger and stronger, while the other five of our edicts are weaker? In addition to the Tang people's preference for Nanzhao, the most important reason is that Nanzhao is becoming richer and richer. This Ye Langjun has a strategy to enrich the people, he is still a common man, he can make the county people rich, if we come there, why worry about us not getting rich! ”

"And with a hermit in cloth, you can command the people of a county, such a person, must be a hero, leading the army as a general, when the order can be forbidden, the soldier is willing to die!"

When the barbarian girl said this, she stood up on her horse and looked into the distance, as if that Ye Langjun was in front of her: "I can't wait to see him!" ”

After all, she is just a spectator, so she doesn't know much about the situation. Where can Ye Chang order the people of a county, but the people of several villages near Wu Zepi are the most convinced of him.

The crowd continued to move forward, although they were not many in number, that is, seven people, but they carried more than ten horses, all of which were relatively short but could carry weights for long journeys. The empty horses, with camels on their backs, were loaded with gifts for their journey.

There is a village in front of it, the scale of the village is relatively large, I am afraid that there are more than 100 families. At the entrance of the village, under the old locust tree, there is a sign on the tree, and the sign has words written on it. However, among these barbarians, there were no literate people, so they stood under the locust tree.

It happened that Ye Yan came out with tools on his back at this time, and when he saw this group of barbarians, he was not afraid, and stepped forward and asked, "Who are you?" ”

Seeing that Ye Yan was dignified and carrying tools, the barbarian girl asked in a slightly stiff Tang language: "The slave is the barbarian of the six edicts, but Lang Jun is Ye Chang?" ”

"Hehe, you have also heard of Ye Chang's name, but how do you see a certain as him, a certain is Ye Chang's uncle." Ye Yan smiled and stroked his beard and said, "I never thought about the name of Eleven Lang, even you barbarians have heard of it." ”

The barbarian girl's pink cheeks flushed slightly, and she knew that she had recognized the wrong person, and hurriedly saluted and confessed: "The slaves went all the way north, except for a big place like Chang'an, the people of the Tang Dynasty, few people dared to come forward to ask, and now I see that Langjun is extraordinary, so I think it is Ye Langjun." Forgive sins, forgive sins! ”

"What kind of courage is extraordinary, in our Wu Zepi, even a three-foot child dares to ask Yu Er and others." Ye Yan said proudly: "There is Eleven Lang here, our Wu Zeye clan, there is no shortage of courage!" ”

This is the truth, in less than a year, the Wu Zeye clan has gone from a small clan in the local area to now replacing the Liu family as one of the most powerful clans in the vicinity. The insight of the Ye clan characters also expanded with the opening of the Ye clan study.

On the 28th of January, Ye Chang officially opened the Ye clan school in Wolong Valley, and selected the children of the clan to enroll, and taught half-day classes every day, granting literacy and arithmetic, and he himself was the teacher.

He couldn't help but go to the adults to observe, but he had to abide by discipline in the clan study, ordinary adults couldn't bear it and didn't want to go, but Ye Yan was not, he had long known how useful it was to learn a few skills from Ye Chang, so he came almost every day.

Ethnology goes to school for eight days in October, and the first, tenth, eleventh, twentieth, twenty-first and thirtieth days of each month are closed, which is an unusual teaching arrangement, and the villagers are not surprised.

"Slaves have traveled thousands of miles, that is, they have come to pay homage to Ye Langjun, and they will be introduced by Lang Langjun, and there will be a thank you gift." The barbarian girl said.

"Follow this road, go straight ahead, it is Wolong Valley, at the mouth of Wolong Valley, someone will greet you." Ye Yan pointed to a road on the left: "If there is something else, I won't accompany him." ”

After he finished speaking, he left, the barbarian girl looked at his back and sighed slightly, and a barbarian on the side said slightly angrily: "This man is so rude! ”

"Hugh is going to give a sermon." The barbarian girl was startled.

"Hanzi" was not a good word before the Tang Dynasty, but a word that the Hu people mocked and scolded the Han men, just as the Han people called the Hu people "Hu'er". The barbarian was a little unconvinced, and the barbarian girl sighed: "You, have you ever seen those Tang people along the way?" We came all the way here, and that Langjun didn't come up to see the excitement, and he wasn't moved by the thanks, the real husband is also! is worthy of being a member of Ye Langjun's clan, and when I see him, I yearn for Ye Langjun even more......"

"He must be a respected elder." The barbarian also said.

Everyone nodded, and in their opinion, the only person who could have such influence and ability could be an older wise man.

When they followed the road further, they saw small trees planted on both sides of the road, and there were boys watering the trees, and when they saw them, they only looked up curiously, but none of them followed. At this time, the barbarian girl decided in her heart that Ye Chang was the person she had been looking for, so she couldn't wait to see Ye Chang himself.

The sound of hooves before the horse arrived at the station, and when she saw a tree covering the way from a distance, the barbarian girl estimated that she had reached Wolong Valley. She turned over and dismounted, leading the horse forward to show respect, although the barbarians behind her still had those who were not convinced, but they did not dare to disobey.

When I arrived at the mouth of the valley, I saw a servant standing in front of the door, and the barbarian girl stepped forward to salute and asked, "Xiao Langjun, but Mr. Ye Changye lives in the Wolong Valley?" ”

The servant was Chunming, seeing the appearance of the barbarian, he looked at it curiously, and then returned the salute: "Exactly, the lady is from the edict, and my family Langjun has been waiting for a long time." ”

As he spoke, he led the barbarians to the valley, where Ye Chang was not far away, in the welcoming pavilion, chatting with Jiao Sui and Du Fu.

Du Fu also just came to visit this morning, he was older, Ye Chang let him sit on the top position, as for Jiao Sui, even if he sat on the top position, there was no positive shape.

The barbarian girl's eyes turned on everyone, she knew Jiao Sui, so she smiled at Jiao Sui, and then came to Du Fu and bowed down: "Yue Xi's female Ashima, Tang name Yu Wei, I have seen Mr. Ye!" ”

Everyone was stunned.
