In late January, Xuzhou Prefecture Pastoral Mansion, deliberations. When Tian Fan arrived, the people were almost there.

In the past two months, the area that everyone is responsible for has developed a little. With Chen Qi's efforts, the scholars in Xuzhou, except for Guangling County and Langya Kingdom, have promised to support Liu Bei. Only a few of them were still a little wavering, but Tian Fan believed that when Jian Yong came back and Liu Bei's holy decree to become the imperial uncle and state pastor came, most of them would immediately switch to supporting Liu Bei. The Tuntian things that Chen Deng is responsible for have also developed to a certain extent, and the military and civilians of Tuntian have learned the new planting method taught by Tian Fan, and now they can almost operate it in practice, and they will only wait for the results to be tested when they are cultivated a month later!

However, there was no progress in the improvement of farm tools, and in less than a month, although the three old craftsmen in the craftsman camp were very good, they still failed to make Quyuan pears. There has also been little progress in the improvement of grain seeds, after all, the Chinese people will not pick out the ears that conform to the standards and keep them. The Chinese people do not have the habit of wanting to improve their agricultural tools, and we can do whatever others do.

According to Jian Yong's itinerary, he should come back next month, that is, in February of the second year of Xingping. According to the news he sent back, the road was a little rough, but it was not a big problem.

Zhang Fei, Cao Bao, Mi Fang, and their army training is also good, at least Liu Bei thinks it is good. Now Liu Bei has 30,000 troops, of which Guan Yu is stationed in Xiaopeitun 9,000, and the others are in Xiapi, Cao Bao also made some concessions, and handed over the troops other than the Danyang Jinjun to Zhang Fei to be responsible. In addition, the newly recruited 10,000 soldiers have also been recruited, after all, for these tuntian soldiers, the attraction of tax exemption is also very great.

Tao Qian is a master of civil affairs, but he is not too strong militarily, and his army is really not very good. Moreover, after being beaten by Cao Cao twice, there was a general pessimistic mood in the hearts of the soldiers, and the morale was not very high! What Liu Bei needs to do most now is to seize the time to train the army, and then wipe out or subdue the armed forces of the counties and counties in Xuzhou.

There was nothing to do with Tian Fan, so Tian Fan sat obediently and listened to them. At this time, Chen Deng suddenly said to Tian Fan: "Boguang, I have picked out the three hundred heroes you want, hey, you don't know, this is really a tiger man!" One by one is very majestic, it must be able to be a ten, hehe, exactly according to your requirements! ”

Everyone was attracted by the news he exploded, and looked at Tian Fan suspiciously. Tian Fan hurriedly said: "Lord, everyone, what, Fan, I want to use the new method to train the army, but I don't know what the effect is, so I asked Mr. Yuanlong to borrow three hundred people, I just want to try!" Hehe, nothing else. After that, he glared at Chen Deng, this big mouth!

Liu Bei asked suspiciously: "Boguang, why don't you look for me to ask for someone?" Tian Fan's old face flushed: "Lord, I'm afraid that if I don't practice well, you will laugh at me, so I plan to tell you after I finish practicing secretly." As he spoke, he got up and saluted Liu Bei, and continued: "Forgive me, lord! ”

Zhang Fei and Cao Bao laughed, and Zhang Fei said: "I didn't expect Boguang, your kid to be able to train soldiers?" He turned his head to Cao Bao and Mi Fang and said, "Do you believe it? Anyway, I don't believe it, hahaha, if he says that he can farm, I believe it, but training, hehe......" Cao Bao also smiled and said: "Don't believe it or not, I don't believe anything, hahaha." Laughing to death, Boguang training? Hehe, will he be able to hold down those sergeants? Everyone looked at Tian Fan with a smile to see what he said.

Tian Fan was angry, Nima, it's too much, and you're starting to laugh at me? Tian Fan's face was flushed with anger, and he glared at Zhang Fei and shouted, "Zhang Yide, you listen to me!" I bet you that in three months, you and I will each send 300 men, and I will beat you! If you lose, you are not allowed to drink for a year, and if I lose, I will let you drink for free for a lifetime! What do you think? ”…,

Everyone stopped laughing, and it started to get a little interesting. Zhang Fei was also stunned, wouldn't he? You're too ruthless! I've been leading soldiers for more than ten years, and when I started leading soldiers, you were still wearing open crotch pants, and you weren't afraid of flashing your tongue in the wind? But it's hard enough not to drink alcohol this year! It's better to be cautious!

Zhang Fei's training is not famous, in the Three Kingdoms era, the most famous training general should be Gao Shun, his trapping camp can be said to be the most perverted, followed by the first camp of Koyi, 800 first to break the three thousand white horse righteous servants of Gongsun Zan to dominate the grassland, although the terrain at that time was not very suitable for cavalry combat, but the combat power of the first camp can also be seen. However, I haven't heard that Zhang Fei has trained a powerful army, which is why Tian Fan dares to make this bet!

Liu Bei hurriedly said, "Third brother, don't laugh. Boguang, don't be angry with this black guy, I think this bet will be forgotten! Hahaha, I don't believe you can train either, it's better for you to follow me and give me an idea! Everyone burst into laughter!

Tian Fan bowed deeply to Liu Bei and said, "Lord, don't you even believe me?" I can guarantee that the three generals will lose this time! Whoever wishes to make a military order! ”

This sentence made everyone stunned, this kid is too crazy, right? Zhang Fei was angry, almost wanted to throw the table on Tian Fan, but after thinking about it, he couldn't help it, Tian Fan's small body was too weak, and he would be finished if he threw this table, besides, the eldest brother was still by his side, in case he hit the eldest brother, uh, the second brother had to skin me alive.

Liu Bei looked at Tian Fan and asked, "Boguang, are you so confident?" Tian Fan nodded solemnly. Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei and said, "Okay, I agreed for the third brother, but don't make a military order." If you have any requirements, I will solve it for you! Tian Fan was happy when he heard it, this may save a lot of money! Although we are getting richer and richer now, we also have to save money, don't we?

Zhang Fei didn't do it, this kid despised me, how could the eldest brother help him? roared: "Big brother, this kid ......" Liu Bei said: "Third brother, you shut up." Boguang's ability is often unexpected, and you can't be underestimated! Forgot to lose the last bet? "Zhang Fei thinks about it, this kid is a bit evil, well, it's better to be careful!

Tian Fan said to Zhang Fei: "General Zhang, it's January, I need to prepare things, you give me a month to prepare, and we will compete in late May, how about it?" Zhang Fei said: "Okay, don't talk about May, even next May!" I don't believe you can make any good soldiers! Tian Fan nodded and said to Liu Bei: "Lord, I can't think of all the things I need for a while, wait for me to open a list for you, you can prepare it for me!" Liu Bei nodded in agreement. Tian Fan saluted everyone again and said, "Everyone, I made a bet with General Zhang today, and everyone is a witness!" Everyone agreed.

The crowd dispersed, and Tian Fan prepared things without showing them.

On this day, Tian Fan didn't go out at home, talking to Xiao Liu'er, taking advantage of it by the way, eating small tofu, and living a good life. Xiao Liu'er has become more and more standard in the past year, from a young little girl to a semi-mature little Lori, with a pink face, a small body straight and straight, and a small chest that is a little bigger, well, the body is well developed, and the whole body is full of fragrance close to maturity, it seems that this girl has eaten well during this time, and her nutrition is quite sufficient. Since the last fragrant tongue treatment incident, Tian Fan has asked him to treat himself, and Xiao Liu'er has become accustomed to being taken advantage of by Tian Fan. It's just that whenever Tian Fan has any too intimate movements, such as holding her hands and talking, she is still a little shy.

When Tang Yi came in, Tian Fan was grabbing Xiao Liu'er's hand to take advantage. Suddenly seeing Tang Yi come in, Xiao Liu'er hurriedly withdrew his hand, and his face was red to the base of his neck. Tian Fan was thick-skinned and didn't care, withdrew his hand, and reminisced about Xiao Liu'er's pink pair of small hands, well, Xiao Liu'er's small hands are very beautiful, and he has caught up with the models of later generations, which really doesn't look like a pair of working hands. …,

He looked up and said to Tang Yi: "How many times have you told you, why can't you always remember the person who came in to knock on the door?" Although Tang Yi saw Tian Fan eating Xiao Liu'er's tofu, he didn't care, when Old Man Tian said that he wanted Xiao Liu'er to be Tian Fan's concubine, her fate was already doomed. Seeing that his son-in-law liked his sister, he was happy in his heart. Tang Yi scratched his head, smirked, and said, "Childe, Master Tao is visiting!" Tian Fan nodded, "Well, I'll go now!" ”

After the two finished the ceremony, the potter said, "Boguang, I'm coming to you for wine!" ”

Tian Fan ordered people to prepare. asked, "Brother Berning, what's wrong, is there anything bothering?" Oh, by the way, why didn't Brother Zhong Ning come? The potter sighed and said, "Boguang, I am upset for my brother, I want to find someone to talk to, and I want to come and go, only you are the most suitable." Don't worry about your brother! Tian Fan hurriedly said, "How can it? Brother Berning has always taken care of his younger brother, how can I not know? What do you have to say, just say! As he spoke, the next man reported that everything was ready.

Tian Fan and the potter were seated. The potter sighed: "Brother Boguang is really talented, this table, chair and bench I also have at home now, I usually sit when I eat, I feel comfortable, and I am close to my family, hehe." Tian Fan hurriedly humbled and said: "Brother Boning praised it falsely, the younger brother is not doing his job, and he is doing some evil ways all day long, and my father has reprimanded me many times because of this matter!" The potter waved his hand and said, "Brother Xian doesn't need to be humble, your talent is very admired by my brother." Just like this tofu you invented, as well as spirits, hehe, I'm not afraid of your jokes, but now I can't do without it. Stewing a pot of tofu every day, slowly sipping the burning knife, it's really a fairy who doesn't change it! ”

Tian Fan smiled and said no more. As a magical food, tofu has swept the whole of Xuzhou at an incredible speed! Tian Fan did not hide his secrets, and announced the manufacturing process of these bean foods to the public, he thought that improving the living standards of ancient people was more meaningful than making some money himself! Eating beans directly, people often have incomplete digestion, and there will be a lot of watercress in the feces that are eliminated, which is a great waste. Making beans into tofu has many benefits! Soy milk, tofu brain, bean flower, etc., these nutritious legumes are better for us than milk for Chinese. And the leftover bean dregs from making tofu are also a good thing, and feeding a pig or something is also very good. Anyway, the beans are full of treasures!

I still remember watching a TV series in my last life, which tells the story of an official selling his official beard. There is a very obscene person who comes to buy an official with the usual money, saying that he only needs an official who can drink wine every day and eat hot tofu! The lewd man has a famous saying, which is about drinking steaming wine and eating hot tofu, and he will not change it for a fairy. It is conceivable that tofu is still very attractive to ordinary people in times of material scarcity.
