"Why should the king of the county be like this? It is normal for the magistrate to pay homage to the magistrate according to reason. Yu Chi Yanshan, who was sitting on the side of the cabin, smiled and said: "I have heard for a long time that Sizhou is also an important town in Huaishui, and staying for a day can also dispel fatigue, Sister Ji and Sister Mulan, what do you think?"

"Sister Wei Chi is also reasonable. Liu Ji's face remained unchanged, his bright eyes glanced at Jiang Feng, who was a little irritable, and turned his head to look at Bai Mulan, who was still looking excited and expectant, "Mulan, Sister Yu Chi is asking for your opinion." ”

"Okay, I've never been to Huaishui, I heard that the climate and customs of Huainan and Huaibei are completely different, Huainan is orange and Huaibei is orange, this story comes from this, I don't know if it's really so big?"

What this girl thinks about is indeed a little different, and Yu Chi Yanshan and Liu Ji are speechless.

Jiang Feng was amused by Bai Mulan's words, "Mulan, this is just an idiom metaphor, in fact, the climate in Huainan is indeed warmer than Huaibei, especially in winter, well, it can be said that Huaishui has always been the dividing line between the north and the south of our Middle Earth, but the statement that Huainan is orange and Huaibei is orange is also a bit fallacious." ”

"Fallacy?" Wei Chi Yanshan and Liu Ji were both interested, "This is recorded in "Yanzi Spring and Autumn", after thousands of years of washing, why can it be said to be a fallacy?"

These two daughters are people who have read history books, and they are naturally no strangers to "Yanzi Spring and Autumn", and the book compiled by Liu Xiang of the Western Han Dynasty is also widely circulated in China, and the idiom Huainan is orange and Huaibei is citrus is also often quoted.

"Hehe, do the two girls think that so-and-so is making a statement?" Jiang Feng laughed, " In fact, although the appearance of orange and citrus aurantium is similar, but the two are not the same type of plant, orange likes warmth, and the temperature in the south of Huaishui in winter is not low, and there is very little ice in the state, so oranges can grow in Huainan, and once transplanted to the north of Huaishui, when it is frosted and frozen in winter, it will freeze to death, so Huainan has no orange at all; 。 ”

"Huh?!" Yu Chi Yanshan and Liu Ji didn't expect such a result at all, and were greatly surprised: "How can the county king know?"

"The Huzhou Magic Material Official Academy and the Xuzhou Magic Material Official Academy have special personnel to conduct research on plant cultivation, so the difference between orange and citrus aurantium has long been discovered by them, and citrus aurantium is also a very valuable medicine. Jiang Feng said loudly.

Yu Chi Yanshan and Liu Ji both found the surprise in their eyes, and after the two of them arrived in Xuzhou this time, they had already heard of the name of the Xuzhou Magic Material Academy.

For Xuzhou, it spares no effort to recruit magic talents from all over the world, which is also known everywhere.

As early as before the Great Liang was destroyed by the Jin army, the Xuzhou Magic Materials Official Academy began to recruit and absorb various talents in the territory of the Great Liang, as long as they wanted, Xuzhou could provide the travel expenses including a family, and provide routes and contacts along the line, so that they could reach Huzhou or Xuzhou safely and smoothly, both of which have large-scale research institutions.

After the fall of the Great Liang, the Shatuo people did not pay much attention to this aspect, so that many of the original talents of the Great Liang Daozangzhai fled to Xuzhou in a big way, and some people preferred Huzhou, so they moved to Huzhou, so the magic materials and official courts in these two places have made great progress.

Originally, Jiang Feng planned to establish a general institute in Xuzhou and set up a branch institute in Huzhou, but in the end he decided to let it develop freely and encourage competition and cooperation between the two places in academic research.

And Deng Guinian and Luo Zhen returned to Huzhou, and the two served as the first and second seats of the Huzhou Magic Materials Official Academy, respectively, while Ganquan stayed in Xuzhou to serve as the first seat of the Xuzhou Magic Materials Official Academy, and a magic master from Daliang Daozangzhai served as the second seat.

It is precisely because of Xuzhou's strong respect for magic and Gewu that the magic talents from Daliang, Hebei and even Jiangnan have come to invest, and Jiang Feng is also particularly willing in this regard, even Deng Guinian and Ganquan and others feel that Jiang Feng is the most willing to invest in the magic and Gewu.

With the separation of the two major techniques and the Gewu design system of Huzhou and Xuzhou, some differences have begun to appear in the direction of their respective research and learning directions, such as Xuzhou is more inclined to study the direction of the system of fire, metal and earth, while the system of wood, water and soil is mainly used in the design of Huzhou, and this trend is also shown in the design of Gewu.

This is also what Jiang Feng is happy to see, each has its own expertise, and at the same time can cooperate, this virtuous circle can achieve better results.

"It seems that the magic objects under the rule of the Xuzhou Grand Governor's Mansion are already very popular, I wonder if our fellow magicians in Nanyang can communicate with Xuzhou?"

"Hehe, if fellow Nanyang Daoists have this interest, I think they will definitely welcome the Year of the Turtle and Ganquan with both hands. Jiang Feng generously agreed: "However, our study and research here may not be completely used for military purposes, and it may disappoint fellow Nanyang colleagues." ”

Liu Ji shook his head slightly, "Is the king of the county just so invested for personal preference?"

"Not really, Lone has always believed that magic can bring us many different understandings and feelings about this world, well, it will also be of great benefit to people's livelihood. Jiang Feng said lazily: "Now that Xuzhou can afford it, it should be regarded as Lone's personal preference." ”

Jiang Feng's willful words made a cadre speechless, this is really rich and capricious.

"Huainan is orange, Huaibei is orange, the meaning here is that everything has its own place of survival, if it goes to other places, it can't survive normally, then it should be in its place, can't be overcome, isn't it?

One sentence made everyone present look at this seemingly chaotic and ignorant girl.

Jiang Feng also set his eyes on the face of this alien girl with a pair of beautiful gray-green eyes, and nodded lightly: "Mulan, this question is very good, it depends on whether it can adapt to the development and changes of this era and the world." In fact, we all know that before the Han Dynasty, the south of the Yangtze River was also a barren area, swamps and miasma were everywhere, and not many people dared to go at all, but look at the present? The land of fish and rice, the land of abundance, this is actually a process of adaptation and conquest, and we human beings are the best at conquering, transforming and adapting to the entire external environment. Just like the Shatuo people, they were originally in Hedong, and now they are in the Central Plains, aren't they also doing well? But before that? Where are they, outside the Saiwai, this is also an adaptation, and in the same way, we Han people can also survive in Raole, Anxi, and Beiting, and it depends on who brings better changes to the world. ”

Jiang Feng's words are also a bit euphemistic and subtle, but the pertinence is self-evident.

"A better change?" asked Bai Mulan thoughtfully.

"Yes, if all it brings is blind killing and plundering, and does not create anything itself, neither grows grain, nor cultivates mulberry and silkworms, nor mines and smelts iron, nor does it build ships for porcelain, nor does it dry salt and collect medicine, then such a change is unacceptable. Jiang Feng tried his best to introduce his meaning in the most simple and understandable words, "Everyone and every person has their own reasons for surviving in this world, whether it is planting mulberry and raising silkworms, spinning and weaving, planting grain and fishing, fighting iron and transporting goods, whether it is being a soldier to protect the family and defend the country, whether it is teaching people to read and write words, whether it is catching thieves and breaking prison, these are all contributions to the world, but just to survive to rob others, then this kind of group should not exist, I think, we in Xuzhou should try our best to eliminate this kind of group that is not beneficial to the world." ”

"We, the Tuyuhun people, are also herding sheep and horses, and are also farming and working,......" Bai Mulan seemed to hear Jiang Feng's words, and frowned and retorted.

"So I didn't say that the Tuyuhun people shouldn't exist. Jiang Feng continued: "But it cannot be denied that people like the Shatuo people, the Dangxiang people, the Khitan people, and some of our Han people, they only want to rely on their own soldiers and horses, and only want to rely on their own blades to plunder the income of other people's labor, among the Han people, we call them bandits, and what about those people living in the northern grasslands? They could have survived by herding sheep and horses, but they wanted to use more brutal and cruel methods to obtain what they thought was a better life. ”

Bai Mulan's voice raised a little, "I remember you once told me that the pursuit of a better life is everyone's right. ”

"Yes, I have said it, but I have also said that the pursuit of this kind of life should be achieved in a benign way, not in exchange for depriving others of their lives and property, which is a violation and destruction of the development and evolution of civilization, and it is also unacceptable to us. Jiang Feng felt as if he was standing on some kind of moral high ground and was pointing fingers at others, and he was particularly sanctimonious, "Maybe my army will also deprive others of their lives, but we do this to make life better for more people." ”

During this period of time, the three girls have always had the opportunity to stay with Jiang Feng on the road and on the boat, and Jiang Feng and the three girls often elaborate on some of their views and opinions during conversations, and the various new terms that have been mentioned repeatedly also surprise the three girls.

Bai Mulan is just that, but for Liu Ji and Wei Chi Yanshan, both women are not ordinary women, and they have their own understanding and views on the current situation and various affairs, but they are still shocked by Jiang Feng's unbridled ideas and views.

Very novel words such as "world", "civilization", "evolution", "survival", "contribution" and so on also made them curious, and along the way, there were many problems, and Jiang Feng was also willing to instill many of his own concepts into them.
