Not long ago, Yang Yi changed the yuan, and this year is the first year of Hanxing, this heart of hard work is naturally known to the world, and those who have the heart of "peace" inside and outside will not be uninteresting.

It's already May, and it's been half a year since Tao was forced to flee to Yanhan, which is not a long time, nor is it short, at least it is enough for Tao to gather the Tao family scattered everywhere.

Seeing that the scorching heat is coming, it is also the time when the grain is ripe, at this time, the Han army in various places, except for the necessary army, has turned into the army of the harvest, and the grain is related to the future war potential, especially now that the Yan Han Dynasty, the land is vast and sparsely populated, the grain is ripe, do not harvest quickly, if the rainy season hits, the loss will be great.

Jinguan City, but also the top two cities in the Yan and Han Dynasty, the prosperity is better than in the past, the sound of horses' hooves, on the street outside the north gate, from far and near.

A carriage slowly approached.

"Dao Chief, the Splendid Pavilion has arrived." The driver who drove the car got out of the car, respectfully lifted the curtain, and spoke.

The first to come down was a young Taoist boy, followed by two well-maintained, looking a little fairy wind Dao bones, both of them were middle-aged Taoist priests around thirty years old, although the two of them were wearing Taoist robes, but the high-quality robes, as well as a faint and unearthly temperament, were obviously not ordinary origins.

Outside the north gate of Jinguan City, it is also a bazaar, now this bazaar was destroyed two years ago because of the war, and then because the Han lord moved north, Jinguan City is no longer prosperous, so this bazaar has not been restored, but in the past two years, the Han country has gradually recovered its national strength, this bazaar has already made an idea, but now it is replaced by a manor, in front of this manor, people come and go, it is obvious that the business is very good.

In front of this manor, there are a lot of rare plants and flowers, surrounded by a circle of flowers and trees, many flowers are blooming at this time, you can smell the fragrance from afar, flowers and trees accompany each other, it looks very peculiar and elegant, and it is embellished that this manor is like a hidden fairyland in the world.

As soon as the middle-aged Taoist priest looked up, he saw a wooden antique sign hanging on the bamboo door, with three big characters of "Splendid Pavilion" written on it, and the font was beautiful and beautiful, which was obviously from everyone's handwriting.

Looking at it again, the two Taoist priests and Taoist boys were all bright-eyed. I also saw that the road was crooked, and all of it was paved with gravel, and it stretched to the depths. It gives people a sense of looking for a fairyland.

"Senior Brother Zhuge , this place has some meaning." One of the Taoist priests nodded in praise at this time.

"This inscription is said to be written by Du Chaozong, a scholar of Hanlin, and opened a branch in Hanzhong County, which was visited and praised by His Majesty, which is naturally not ordinary."

Step inward, enter the door, step on the sheep intestine path inward, walk out less than 100 meters, then see a huge lake, appear next to the stone steps road, about a few acres of land size, the water color is clear, on the water surface, lotus flowers are blooming by themselves, extremely beautiful.

There are also a few pavilions on the water and are built hanging from the water, many guests are enjoying the flowers and talking there, occasionally a few words are faintly in the ear, but the garden, most of the time, is very quiet.

At this time, a young man in a green coat appeared in front of the two, bowed and saluted, and asked with a smile: "Dao Chief, I don't know if you are eating, staying in a hotel, or buying things?" ”

"Oh? We're new here, so let's hear about it. The Zhuge Taoist said with a smile at this time.

The guy responded and explained: "This store is the fourth store after the main store of Jinxiu in Hanzhong County, the branch of Yongchang County, and the branch of Xinjun.

The price of splendid in the middle is fair, Tong Su is not bullied, and the ordinary guests are ordinary stores, and the guests who are noble and quiet can book a single room in advance, and I don't know where the two Taoist chiefs want to go to consume, can there be a reservation? ”

"Is this a reservation?" The middle-aged Taoist priest took out an object from his sleeve and showed it to the man.

When the guy saw it, his smile increased a little more.

"It turned out to be a distinguished guest, please come with me."

So, the two Taoist priests didn't say anything more, and took the Taoist boy to walk forward with the men.

I hadn't taken a few steps when suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps on the road next to me.

Then, someone shouted in surprise: "Zhuge Dao Chief? ”

"Mr. Tao? How are you here? The Taoist priest surnamed Zhuge was attracted by the sudden call and turned his head, and saw an old man in gorgeous clothes, standing not far away, looking at him in surprise.

After saying this, Daoist Zhuge smiled first: "Look at what I said, this is your property, and it is not strange that you appear here." ”

"Daoist Zhuge Daoist, why did you suddenly come here? Could it be ...... Is something going on over there? ”

Tao Ji's concern was not fake, but made Zhuge Taoist smile lightly, shook his head and said: "It's not like that, it's just that I abandoned that side, my family also has one here, come to run, by the way, come to see the new big store opened by Mr. Tao's family, speaking of which, this place is beyond my expectations, very elegant." ”

This Zhuge Taoist priest is Zhuge Song, but at this time, because of his meritorious service, he was rewarded by the Qingcheng Heavenly Master, pulled from the outer door into the inner door, and gave up the worldly property and returned to Shu, Zhuge Song commented at this time.

"How many days do you want to stay in Jinguan City this time? Last time, I said goodbye in a hurry, and I haven't talked to Daoist Haosheng yet. ”

Tao Ji said invitedly at this time: "If you are not in a hurry, I will ask the man to arrange a place for you to live, and there will be no outsiders to disturb you." ”

Seeing that Tao Ji was so enthusiastic, Zhuge Song also had something to ask for to come to the door, so he naturally responded, Tao Ji is now appointed as a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and now he is in charge of monks and sacrifices, which is the competent unit of their Heavenly Master Dao.

However, Zhuge Song came here, and he also made an appointment with someone to meet friends first, and Tao Ji made an appointment with him, and after parting, he also went to the back.

Passing through several corridors, led by the little man who led the way, he stopped in front of a courtyard, and then walked into the courtyard.

Directly north there were five houses, only the middle door was open, and as soon as Tao Ji entered, he saw a young man standing with his back to him, admiring the calligraphy and paintings on the wall.

"I've kept Mr. Li waiting." Tao Ji said with a smile.

Li Mi turned around and arched his hand at him, according to the grade, Tao Ji was still above Li Mi, but as a bachelor of Hanlin, he was the future ruler of the future, and this Tao Ji could not compare, but he still said respectfully: "Where is Mr. Tao, I came too early." ”

This big room is very chic, full of books, and it doesn't look like a single courtyard in a restaurant, but like a reception room for everyone's children.

There are some paintings and poems on the wall, flowers and potted plants are placed by the window on the ground, and there is a bookshelf in the center that reaches to the roof, and there are many books on display.

There was a delicate jade table in the middle, and the men had already come in to serve tea and fruit snacks, and Tao Ji instructed: "I will chat with the guests for a while, and pass it on, and no outsiders are allowed to enter." ”

"Yes, the villain knows."

Li Mi smiled, his eyes drooping slightly, but he didn't speak. The only Chinese network

It was also his first time here, and he couldn't help but be surprised by the garden arrangement when he first arrived.

This so-called Splendid Pavilion is said to be a few joint shares, but in fact it is still the shop of the Tao family, and the other few are nothing more than sharing profits, and then escorting this business, as far as Li Mi knows, there are Zhao's, Luo's, Huo's, Jiang's, or concubines, or local officials.

A large number of commodities from the Western Regions, Jiangnan, and Nanban gathered here, which made Jinguancheng suddenly prosperous a lot, and the goods of many official workshops gradually became on this channel, exchanging grain, iron and stone, etc. from Wu, as well as goods from Wei.

The Wei people also brought money to buy goods, except for the prohibited materials, the rest of the things were not forbidden to be sold in the Han Kingdom, and there were also officials of the household department, counting taxes, and the Tao family had no intention of concealing it.

Li Mi narrowed his eyes, and admired the courage of the Tao family a little, not to mention the effect, but this attitude of serving the king at any cost was very clear.

It is not known what the business of the Tao family's caravan is, and it is not known that they have never really dealt with it, but now the shops built in Hanzhong, Yongchang, Xinjun, and Jinguancheng are all in full swing.

In just two months, the Tao family opened four stores, but that's not the most important thing.

"Mr. Li, this is the news that the old man has received in the past few days, I don't know if it will be useful to you." Chong took out a stack of paper rolls in his arms, and Tao Ji handed it to Li Mi.

Li Mi took it in his hand, opened a few copies casually, put them away carefully, and then said with a smile: "The information collected in these caravans is somewhat helpful. ”

"That'll be fine." Tao Ji nodded, the Tao family was closely linked with Yan Han, and he spared no effort in collecting intelligence.

The two chatted for a while, and Li Mi got up to say goodbye.

He came here this time, just to get the information here, and he had just come back from Ba County, and he bypassed it from here, and it was okay for other people to do this, but at this time, he got out of the gate, got into the carriage, sat in the carriage, looked at the information one by one, and secretly sighed in his heart.

I really didn't expect that the Tao family incident would vaguely become the fuse of the unstable situation in the world.

Especially in the state of Wu, the contradictions did not break out before, but the families of the state of Wu also raised their beware of each other to the surface, not to mention the increase in private soldiers to guard the home, not to mention, the king of Wu has now begun to closely monitor the trade between the two countries.

Carefully loading the information in his hand, Li Mi sighed secretly: "It seems that the war is not far away." ”

When this day comes, it will inevitably cause a sea of blood and a mountain of corpses.

But this day is inevitable.

The trend of the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time, and it is impossible to continue like this.

Now that the Three Kingdoms have been divided for many years, it is not beneficial to the trend of the world or the people of China if it continues like this.

Now that Cao Wei's internal undercurrent is turbulent, if Yan Han doesn't take the opportunity to rise up, and if the confrontation continues, sooner or later it will be like Jing Yao's six years.

For example, today, the strength on the bright side is divided into ten points, Wei accounts for five points, Wu accounts for three points, and Han accounts for two points, which is already good, since General Guan was stabbed in the back by Sun Wu to the collapse of Liezu, Han only accounts for one point in this world, and this extra point is won from Wei in the past two years.

Liangzhou and even the three eastern counties and the Western Regions are counted together, and with this point, Yan Han will have more room to manoeuvre, so as to unite with Wu and truly have the strength to compete with Cao Wei.

Therefore, now he and Wu Guo can't turn their faces, such as Tao Ji, although he is a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, but he can't really take office yet, so he can only be wronged first, but his two sons can be used, both in Liangzhou, one is a civil official, the other is a military general, there, Wu Guo can't receive any exact news for a while.

The carriage moved slowly, Li Mi thought about the trend of the world in his heart, and on the way into the city, the carriage passed by a Taoist temple.

Hearing the commotion outside, Li Mi glanced out of the car window.

"Stop, I'm going to go over and have a look." Seeing that he had arrived here, in front of the gate of the Taoist temple, Li Mi stopped the carriage, got off the carriage, and walked towards the Taoist temple.

At this time, the entrance of the Taoist temple was lively.

The workers were busy with their work, while the officials involved in the supervision were discussing things.

"I've seen Master Li." A few small officials who were checking the construction situation in front of the door turned their heads to look when they heard the footsteps, and their faces immediately changed slightly, but they knew Li Mi, and when they saw him coming, they hurriedly bowed down to salute.

Li Mi is now a bachelor of Hanlin, a member of the military department, and the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and the other positions of power are gone, but the commander of the Jinyi Guard is the commander of the officials.

"No courtesy." Li Mi said lightly, but his eyes only looked into the distance, and he saw the workers busy in front of the door, and a gate had been carried over and was about to be installed.

Looking at this situation, it should be about to be completed, Li Mi asked, "How many days will it be completed?" ”

When asked, the official of the Ministry of Works hurriedly replied: "Envoy, there are about two days left, and it will be completed." ”

"Well, hurry up and catch up with the progress, and report to me when it's finished." Li Mi said, his eyes fell on the Taoist temple, and he observed carefully.

In other words, the Heavenly Master Dao has now been recognized, and the official Taoist temple has also been given, but it was given to Jinguan City, and if the capital is restored in the future, it is estimated that it will be moved to the capital.

On the basis of a Taoist temple that has been abandoned for a long time, it was expanded, and of course, Yang Yi also asked Shaofu to allocate a thousand silver coins as repair costs, which is naturally not enough, or the Heavenly Master Dao himself paid for the repair of the Taoist temple.

Of course, the reward is not only this thousand silver, but also the 7,000 acres of land deeds that have been counted by Qingcheng Mountain, which has been allocated to the name of the Taoist temple.

Seven thousand acres of land, although most of them are mountains, but not less, and Xu built a Taoist temple, gave a thousand silver, the total number of which added up, is the reward of a prince.

In front of him, the area of the Taoist temple alone has a size of about 20 acres, which is already very large, you know, now Yang Yi's line in Hanzhong County, the overall area is only about 15 acres.

The Taoist temple is being built on the one hand, and bamboo roots have been planted on the other side, waiting for the next year to become a bamboo forest, which must also be a quiet place.

After a brief look, Li Mi left, he didn't want to interfere in this Taoist matter, after all, this is the internal guard has been in contact, and the internal guard is presided over by the virtuous concubine in the palace, and the little official responded respectfully in his ears, Li Mi nodded, and walked back to his carriage.

A few days later, heavy rain fell in Shu, after this rain, it was time to prepare for the summer harvest, the official workshop, in addition to the manufacture of armor, has now cast more farm tools, these farm tools, upgrading is one of them, but also for the soldiers to use, let the border county soldiers, accelerate the harvest of the military field, and then quickly turn to defense.

And this is also the time when the enemy is most likely to attack.
