Chapter 31 Fish Head Soup
Can the Dusk Jun warehouse be upgraded?
Due to the upgrade, Yuan Yao and Qi Jiguang were forcibly expelled outside, and Yuan Yao vaguely remembered that the last upgrade time that appeared on the computer screen was a month.
Out of the bedroom, Yuan Yao quietly found Liu Ji, who was his absolute confidant, and asked him to arrange an identity for Qi Jiguang in private, and then practiced in the courtyard on his own.
I don't know what kind of consideration, Qiao Rui did not take Xiao Qiao to Shouchun City, but left them in Yuan Yao's private manor.
These two little girls and Dong Bai have been nesting together all day long, mysteriously all day long, and every time they look at Yuan Yao, they have a malicious look.
In just a few days, Wei Zhongxian succeeded in convincing Chen Wen of Liyang, and Yuan Yaobing took the remaining four counties in Jiujiang without blood.
Qi Jiguang gathered together hundreds of warships docked around Shouchun by Yuan Yao, and selected thousands of people from the servants trained by Xu Chu to form a small-scale team of sailors, practicing day and night.
At the end of the day, Yuan Yao finished his morning practice and just came out of the medicinal bath, mixed with a faint medicinal fragrance.
After months of cultivation, "Nine Transformations of the Hidden Dragon" has been practiced to the last moment of the second change, and only by integrating the nine postures, the second change can be completely perfected.
"Childe, I'm here to apologize to you!" As soon as Yuan Yao sat down, Xiao Qiao walked over with a big bowl of dark mysterious dishes and a smile.
Seeing Xiao Qiao struggling to put the big bowl on the table, Yuan Yao glanced at the sticky dark dishes in the bowl, and then looked at Xiao Qiao, who was blackened, and Da Qiao and Dong Bai, who also had big flower faces, Yuan Yao's face showed a trace of strangeness.
"What's this?" Yuan Yao finally couldn't help it and asked with a wry smile.
"Fish head soup, we spent a whole morning, and it was not easy to make it, can you taste it, is it delicious?" Xiao Qiao wiped his face with his hand, making his already black little face even more flowery, and looked at Yuan Yao expectantly.
Dong Bai and Da Qiao on the side turned their heads slightly, and the two pretended to look to the side casually, looking extremely unnatural.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, Yuan Yao glanced at the fish head soup like black sesame paste, where did he dare to try it easily, and after thinking for a while, he spoke: "Someone!" ”
"Childe." A servant hurriedly stood up.
"Send this bowl of fish head soup to General Qiao Kuaima, and say that it is a piece of his daughter Xiao Qiao's heart." Yuan Yao instantly handed over the fish head soup to the servant.
"How's that going to work? This is what Sister Dong Bai did for you with us, how can you, as her man, live up to her wishes? When Xiao Qiao heard Yuan Yao's words, he hurriedly stopped the servant who was about to leave and reasoned with Yuan Yao.
Just when Yuan Yao wanted to drag Xiao Qiao away, Liu Ji's voice came from afar: "Lord, Mrs. Dong has some heart for you, you better not let it down." ”
"That's it! Look at Brother Liu, not only can he give you bad ideas, but he can also say a fair word to Sister Dong. Xiao Qiao heard that Liu Ji was also helping her speak, and quickly nodded in agreement.
Liu Ji actually came over just now, and he didn't know what was going on here, plus his relationship with Yuan Yao, he would occasionally make jokes about the master.
Hearing Liu Ji's words, Yuan Yao looked at him strangely, and waited until Liu Ji sat down, and then let the servant who was about to take the black sesame fish head soup away bring it back and put it in front of Liu Ji, Yuan Yao stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please.
"Lord, this is..."Seeing Yuan Yao's movements, and then glancing at the black paste in front of him, Liu Ji understood something with a slight blink, and instantly the whole person trembled, and his eyelids jumped.
"This is Dong Bai's heart, I just had lunch, I can't bear to waste it, so I will let someone send it to General Qiao, since you are here, why don't you just use it to fill your stomach first?" Yuan Yao said seriously, but his eyes were full of banter.
"Ahem, my subordinates have eaten it just now, so I'll tell my lord about going south to Danyang County!" Coughing lightly in embarrassment, Liu Ji shifted the topic to the side.
"Berwyn, please?" Yuan Yao didn't want to bother with the black sesame paste, so he immediately returned to his normal color.
"The valley of Danyang County is ten thousand, the terrain is dangerous, stretching for thousands of miles are mountains, there are many people here in Baiyuezi, the people are fierce, but there are a large number of copper and iron ore, not only the collection of strong soldiers, but also the production of weapons, if the lord wants to build a strong army, this place must be controlled in his hands."
"However, due to the rampant raiding of the mountains, the lord must first choose a place as a foundation, and then slowly plan it."
Speaking of business, Liu Ji instantly regained his previous calmness and self-confidence, and judging from Liu Ji's analysis, Yuan Yao found that Liu Ji attached great importance to the grasp of intelligence, and did his homework in advance before each action.
Yuan Yao spread out the map of Danyang County, and after looking at it carefully, he suddenly found a rather familiar name on the map, Moling.
When Yuan Yao went to Nanjing in his previous life, he knew that there was such a street in Nanjing, and combined with the geographical location of Danyang County, this place was very good for the location of Nanjing.
"What if we put our roots here, what does Berwyn think?" Yuan Yao pointed to Moling's location and looked up at Liu Ji.
"Huh?" When Liu Ji saw the position of Yuan Yao's finger, he instantly fell into thought.
Moling is only a small city in this period, belongs to the territory of Danyang County, usually looks inconspicuous, before the Eastern Han Dynasty, Jiangdong has been the place where Baiyue lived, and there is no precedent for dividing the river and ruling in the world, so there are not many people who notice the special geographical location of Moling.
And from the map, Moling is close to the Yangtze River, the river flows in the east-west direction, and the south is a stretch of mountains and rivers, if someone is sending heavy troops to guard here, it will almost completely block the entire Jianghuai southward route, which is simply the barrier of Jiangdong.
"My lord is really good eyesight! This place is really a natural place, and if we take this as the foundation, then the four counties of Koto will become the meat of our mouths! After thinking about it, Liu Ji's eyes showed a sense of joy, and he patted the stone table excitedly and nodded repeatedly.
The reason why Liu Ji was excited was not because the place Yuan Yao chose was more thoughtful than the Danyang County he had considered before, but because he saw from Yuan Yao the wisdom that he could only have as a human master.
I didn't expect Yuan Yao to have such an outstanding vision, the position of Moling can be described as the finishing touch, as long as it is based on this, it is invincible.
Not to mention Liu Ji's surprise, even Sun Ce's top strategist Zhang Hong in history only realized the importance of this place a few years after Sun Ce established himself in Jiangdong, and later the Jiangdong Sun clan moved the capital here and changed its name to Jianye.
"Haha, since Berwyn thinks it's feasible, then tomorrow the whole army will go south and take Moling first!"
Receiving Liu Ji's affirmation, Yuan Yao was secretly happy in his heart, and immediately pointed to the map with his hand in high spirits, and the location of his finger was Moling.
In fact, Liu Ji didn't know that the reason why Yuan Yao chose Moling was simply because Nanjing was too famous, and Yuan Yao asked casually with an attitude of trying.
Who knew that this question just poked Liu Ji's heart.
After Liu Ji left, Xiao Qiao still supported his head with his hands and tilted his head to the side, and when he saw Yuan Yao looking at him, he pushed the big bowl with black sesame paste in front of him with a pitiful appearance.
I don't know what I thought, Yuan Yao's eyes narrowed slightly, he picked up the spoon and took a bite, nodding his head affirmatively while eating, and after swallowing a bite, he raised his head and looked at Xiao Qiao and said with a smile: "I didn't expect this fish head soup to look very good, but it tastes pretty good!" ”
Seeing Yuan Yao's sincere look, Xiao Qiao's eyes were dumbfounded, and then he quickly grabbed the spoon in Yuan Yao's hand and took a big bite.
However...
"Ah~poof~" Xiao Qiao, who was spitting out, came back to his senses, only to find that Yuan Yao had long since disappeared.
