Two years later.

Cao Cao is already a pastor of Yanzhou.

Cao Cao was influenced by Chen Kang's ideas and became "low-key".

The exiles, neither the princes nor the imperial court, did not like it. After all, the displaced people are an unstable factor, and they have to come up with money and food to support them, no matter how you calculate it, it is a loss-making business.

But Cao Cao was an alternative among the princes.

Cao Cao likes to recruit homeless people.

In Chen Kang's words, the homeless people are precious laborers, and as long as they are given food, they can be used as livestock.

Wealth and food need to be created by population.

Historically, Cao Cao was a bit of a thirst for killing.

But with Chen Kang, Cao Cao began to despise the other princes, scolding them for killing people like hemp and disregarding human life.

A caravan arrived in Yanzhou.

Behind the caravan were thousands of displaced people.

The caravan guard shouted, "Hold on a little longer, everyone." We'll be there in no time. As long as you arrive, you will have something to eat. ”

The caravan brought back the displaced people, and the state pastoral government gave a reward, which was Chen Kang's suggestion.

Cao Cao decided to give it a try, but he didn't expect it to work well.

In the past two years, Yanzhou has enrolled nearly one million displaced people.

State Pastoral Office.

Cao Cao finished reading the official document and asked, "What is Mr. Chen Kang doing these days?" ”

Xun Yu said: "In addition to reading every day, he also practices martial arts. No, it was to take half an hour to instruct Cao Pigongzi and Xu Chu and others in martial arts. ”

After Xu Chu came to Cao Cao's command, Chen Kang's work was handed over to Xu Chu to do.

Chen Kang has more free time.

Chen Kang's status is a bit special, and it can even be said to be a bit detached.

To say that Chen Kang is just a martial artist, but Chen Kang is erudite and talented, and he seems to be proficient in everything.

Forming caravans, agricultural, and crafting utensils.

Quyuan plows, horseshoes, and improved papermaking are all the credit of Chen Kang.

If you want to say that Chen Kang is a scholar, his force value is terrifyingly high.

Since he entangled Lu Bu and protected Cao Cao, Chen Kang has never made a public move.

What is the current state of Chen Kang's martial arts?

Nobody knows.

Under the guidance of Chen Kang, Princess Liu Yi has already become a martial arts master.

In Cao Ying, the generals with the highest force value were Xu Chu and Dian Wei.

But the two joined forces, and they couldn't make ten moves in Chen Kang's hands, and that was the result of Chen Kang's release.

Cao Cao's civil and military officers called Chen Kang "sir", and many of them were Chen Kang's students.

Even Xun Yu, who has the talent of Wang Zuozhi, is also learning mathematical statistics from Chen Kang.

The work that Xun Yu did was actually to do logistics for Cao Cao and stabilize the people's livelihood and the rear. After learning the number of statistics, I know everything about Yanzhou. When you get things done, you will naturally be handy.

Cao Cao said: "Mr. Chen Kang still doesn't like mundane things as always. I gave him an official position, and he didn't do it. ”

Official?

That's work.

Of course, Chen Kang hopes that he can enjoy resources without working.

Being an official consumes a lot of time and energy, delaying the practice of martial arts. Chen Kangcai didn't do it.

Cao Cao got up and said, "Wen Ruo, let's go, let's go see Mr. Chen Kang." ”

Xun Yu nodded and said, "Lord, please." ”

Cao Cao walked out of the hall, and Xun Yu followed behind.

……

The house where Chen Kang lived was not far from Cao Cao's main hall, less than three hundred meters away.

Chen's house.

It's not like a rich family, but more like a martial arts gym.

There are various training equipment in the courtyard, which was built by Chen Kang himself. People who don't know about these devices don't know how to use them at all.

When the porter saw Cao Cao and Xun Yu, he immediately said respectfully: "Lord, Mr. Wen Ruo." ”

Cao Cao asked, "Is Mr. Chen Kang here?" ”

The porter said, "Sir is reading in the house." ”

Cao Cao took Xun Yu into the courtyard.

In the study.

Chen Kang put down the bamboo slips in his hand and said, "I finally translated all these books." ”

After the books rescued from the Luoyang Palace moved to Yanzhou, Cao Cao put the books in Chen Kang's mansion.

This was requested by Chen Kang on his own initiative.

Chen Kang was eager to find martial arts-related skills in the book.

In this batch of books, there is very little information related to martial arts practice.

However, the few martial arts skills were inherited from the pre-Qin era and the period of a hundred schools of thought, which was of great help to Chen Kang.

Chen Kang absorbed these martial arts skills of the pre-Qin era, and his practice method changed somewhat.

In the past, Chen Kang regarded alchemy as the main thing, and felt that alchemy was the most important and the core of martial arts.

But now Chen Kang feels that the real meaning of martial arts is not "practice", but "cultivation".

Cultivate your mind and nourish your life.

How to raise?

Of course, it is necessary to focus on "nourishing qi". To nourish qi, it is necessary to take the breathing method as the starting point.

Breathing is the true core of practice!

The cultivation skills of the pre-Qin period were mainly based on breathing and practicing qi.

The pre-Qin Qi Cultivator was a very powerful existence.

Chen Kang now puts the research of "breathing" technology in the first place, and alchemy has become a secondary skill.

Because alchemy can increase strength, it can enhance fighting skills, but it can't make life force perfect.

But breathing techniques can make life complete.

Alchemy, breathing, and psychological training, Chen Kang used to go hand in hand, and he paid attention to all of them.

Actually, it's still a bit miscellaneous.

Chen Kang is currently a true specialist in breathing.

Chen Kang has already begun to change to the direction of "Qi Practitioner".

With more and more in-depth research on the breathing method, Chen Kang found that the breathing method can increase wisdom.

Compared with two years ago, Chen Kang's appearance has changed a lot.

Chen Kang's height has not increased, and he is still less than 1.7 meters short. But Chen Kang's figure has gained a lot of weight, his skin is white and red, his eyes are black and white, his lips are red and his teeth are white, and he has baby fat on his face.

If you really want to describe it in words, Chen Kang is like a legendary ginseng doll.

This is the result of a focus on the art of breathing. Muscles and bones, muscles, fat, and internal organs have all reached the golden ratio.

If the body refining technique is regarded as the most important technique, then Chen Kang's figure at the moment is definitely not like this, but as muscular as before, with a lean appearance.

Liu Yi poured Chen Kang a cup of tea.

Chen Kang glanced at Liu Yi and said, "You have nothing to do today?" ”

Liu Yi said: "Sir, I want to go to Chang'an City. ”

Chen Kang said: "What are you doing in Chang'an City?" Kill Dong Zhuo, or save the Son of Heaven? ”

When Dong Zhuo arrived in Chang'an, he still did not change his stubborn nature, and he became even more poor and extravagant, turning Chang'an into a miasma, and the people's resentment was boiling.

Wang Yun and those people are already continuing to plot to kill Dong Zhuo.

Wang Yun lent the Seven Star Sword to Cao Cao last time and asked Cao Cao to assassinate Dong, but he was unsuccessful.

This time, Wang Yun changed his strategy and decided to use a beauty trick to separate Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu.

As long as Lu Bu makes a move, killing Dong Zhuo will be nine out of ten.

The Son of Heaven is under Dong Zhuo's control and is a mascot. If he wanted to issue any holy decree, Dong Zhuo would write it himself, and he would not pay attention to the Son of Heaven at all.

It can be seen how arrogant Dong Zhuo is.

Dong Zhuo is no longer Xiangguo, but the Emperor Taishang who is above the Son of Heaven.

It is true that Liu Yi is a martial arts master, but with her martial arts, it is impossible to assassinate Dong Zhuo successfully.

Not to mention saving the Son of Heaven.

Liu Yi said: "I ...... I just want to go to Chang'an City. ”

Cao Cao and Xun Yu walked into the study.

Cao Cao smiled and said, "Mr. Chen Kang." Her Royal Highness the Princess is also there. ”

Xun Yu hugged his fists and said: "Wen Ruo has seen Mr. Chen Kang, and he has seen Her Royal Highness the Princess. ”

Chen Kang smiled slightly: "Lord, Wen Ruo, please take a seat." ”

Liu Yi smiled reluctantly and nodded at the two.

She knew that Cao Cao and Xun Yu must have something to talk about with Chen Kang. After pouring tea for Cao Cao and Xun Yu, she left the study and closed the door by the way.

Liu Yi is not only beautiful, but also has eyesight.

As a princess, Liu Yi is self-aware and does not put on the score of Her Royal Highness the princess.

In the current situation, the Son of Heaven is all dignified, not to mention that she, a princess, has no weight.

Even Cao Cao only respected Liu Yi on the surface, but he didn't pay attention to her.

Only Chen Kang treated her sincerely, taught her martial arts, and taught her the ability to protect herself.

Liu Yi is here in Chen Kang, like a maid, serving tea and pouring water for Chen Kang and dealing with some mundane things.

There is no way, to survive, this is Liu Yi's way of survival.

Cao Cao took a sip of tea and said, "Mr. Chen Kang, Her Royal Highness the princess is not young, and I plan to arrange a family affair for her." ”

Chen Kang nodded and said, "Her Royal Highness the princess is nineteen years old, and she has reached the age of marriage. ”

Cao Cao said: "Mr. Chen Kang, are you willing to marry Her Royal Highness the princess to someone else?" ”

Chen Kang said with a smile: "That's right, I have nothing to be reluctant to." If Her Royal Highness the princess has someone she likes, of course it would be a good thing. ”

Xun Yu said: "Mr. Chen Kang, the lord means to let Princess Liu Yi marry you." Princess Liu Yi has a noble status, and ordinary people are afraid that she is not worthy of her. Mr. Chen Kang, you are well-versed in the past and the present, talented, and extraordinary in martial arts. Princess Liu Yi is just right to marry you. ”

Liu Yi stood outside the study, and when she heard Xun Yu's words, she was so ashamed that her face was red.

If it is to marry Chen Kang, of course Liu Yi is very willing.

Chen Kang's martial arts and talent are enough to make people ignore his identity as a grass people.

Chen Kang was stunned.

Marry Liu Yi as a wife?

Chen Kang really hadn't thought about it.

I have to say that Liu Yi is very beautiful and has a good personality. If you marry her, then she must be a good wife and mother, and a virtuous helper.

Chen Kang shook his head and said, "No." ”

Cao Cao and Xun Yu looked at each other.

"Why?" Cao Cao asked, "Could it be that Mr. Chen Kang doesn't look down on Princess Liu Yi?" ”

Chen Kang said: "That's not it. Make no mistake about it. I don't mean to look down on Princess Liu Yi. I'm a person who is dedicated to studying martial arts, putting cultivation in the first place, and I haven't thought about getting married. married Princess Liu Yi, I am afraid that I will treat her badly and be unfair to her. ”

Chen Kang has no love for Liu Yi, and it may not be appropriate to marry Liu Yi.

Cao Cao secretly said that if he wants Chen Kang to get married, things have to be done slowly, and he can't be in a hurry.

Chen Kang diverted the topic and said, "Lord, Wen Ruo, you came to me, wouldn't it be for my relatives?" ”

Cao Cao said: "There is one more thing. ”

Chen Kang asked, "What's the matter?" Guo Fengxiao and Wen Ruo can't handle it either? ”

Cao Cao has many first-class generals under his command, as well as Xu Chu and Dian Wei, two peerless generals. Cao Cao had no shortage of generals.

However, Cao Cao lacked civil officials.

Xun Yu and Guo Jia are Cao Cao's two major think tanks.

Guo Jia, as Cao Cao's military advisor, is extremely resourceful, and Guo Jia can almost handle many tricky things.

Cao Cao said: "It's not a matter in the army. It's that there is no money in the treasury. ”

Chen Kang said: "Lord, I have already given you an idea. Build caravans, improve paper and ploughs, and help you improve your finances. You don't have any money now, and you're coming to me again, I can't conjure up money for you out of thin air. ”

Cao Cao said: "Mr. Chen Kang, Wen Ruo and Feng Xiao are not good at making money, I can only come to you." I'm sure you have a way. ”

Any Zhengzhi group and military group, no matter what time it is, is short of money and feels that it is not enough.

The same is true of Cao Cao's rule in Yanzhou.

I always feel that there is not enough money and food.

Chen Kang nodded and said, "There is a way." ”

Cao Cao and Xun Yu's eyes lit up.

"What's the solution?" Cao Cao asked.

Chen Kang said: "Those big families in Yanzhou have huge wealth and vast land resources. My lord, if you kill a few of them, you will have money and land to settle those homeless people, which must be enough. ”

Chen Kang often openly and secretly instigated Cao Cao to attack those families.

Cao Cao and Xun Yu both knew that Chen Kang had no good impression of those families at all, and even had some hatred.

It's not that Chen Kang hates the rich, and he can't see the wealth of those families.

To live a luxurious life, to sing the bell and eat, to be rich and noble.

No problem.

But while enjoying it, we must at least assume social responsibility.

And those family gate lords will only engage in land annexation and will only oppress the people.

They will not pay a little money and food to the government, and all the taxes will be borne by the ordinary people.

The gate valve of the scholar clan is even more ruthless than the capitalists of later generations. The capitalists only control money, but the gentry control all the means of social production, such as official positions, land, and commerce.

It's scary to think about.

Ordinary people simply don't have any room to live.

Cao Cao recruited displaced people to come to Yanzhou, but he could only arrange for the displaced people to reclaim wasteland.

Xun Yu shook his head and said, "Mr. Chen Kang, those big families can't move. ”

Chen Kang spread his hands with baby fat, and said helplessly: "You don't move those big families, don't take back their land, and don't let them take out money and food." There's no way around it. ”

……

Unable to get Chen Kang's help, Cao Cao and Xun Yu had no choice but to leave.

Out of Chen's Mansion.

Cao Cao said: "Wen Ruo, in fact, Mr. Chen Kang has a point. Those big families occupy too much land. Haven't you had people count them before? More than seventy percent of the cultivated land in Yanzhou is occupied by the scholars, and the land we have to settle the displaced people is no longer enough. ”

Xun Yu hurriedly said: "Lord, I understand all of this. But the scholars really can't move. If they are moved, the foundation of Yanzhou will be finished. ”

The world is the world of the scholars.

The nobles not only occupied the land and various resources, but also monopolized knowledge.

The scholars are all from the scholar family.

If Cao Cao dares to move the Shi clan, he will become the public enemy of the whole world. The imperial court and the princes of all walks of life will not let Cao Cao go, they will attack him in groups, and they will swallow Cao Cao's power in an instant.

However, if the nobles were not moved and the land was not recovered, it would not be possible to settle more displaced people.

Without more money and food, Cao Cao was tied down when he started to do things.

Cao Cao sighed and said, "I'll think about it again." There must be something else. ”

……

Chen Kang came to Guo Jia's house, and before he saw anyone, he smelled the smell of wine.

Guo Jia was quietly drinking again.

Chen Kang shouted: "Guo Fengxiao, you get out of here." ”

The subordinates of the Guo Mansion shrank their heads.

Mr. Chen Kang, they can't afford to provoke them.

Hearing Chen Kang's voice, Guo Jia was in a hurry and wanted to hide the wine jar.

Guo Jia just got up.

Chen Kang stood in front of him.

Guo Jia sneered and said, "Mr. Chen Kang, if you listen to me, I'll take a sip." Yes, I just took a sip of wine. If you don't believe me, you can ask my subordinates. ”

Chen Kang stared at Guo Jia and said with a sneer: "Fengxiao, your body is not good, my lord asked me to help you regulate your body." Wine is a poison that pierces the intestines, and the color is a steel knife that scrapes bones. You were in front of your lord, but you promised to quit drinking and sex. How can you be untrustworthy? ”

Guo Jia is very intelligent, especially in the military, and has an extraordinary talent.

To be Cao Cao's military advisor, Guo Jia is fully competent.

When studying military affairs, Guo Jia will be very focused, but when doing other things, Guo Jia will be very casual.

And Guo Jia is a heavy drinker and likes beauties. At a young age, he was almost hollowed out by wine.

Chen Kang is not a doctor, but he is a great martial arts master, and his understanding of the body far exceeds that of a doctor.

Chen Kang promised Cao Cao to use martial arts skills to help Guo Jia regulate his body and supervise him to quit drinking and sex.

As soon as Guo Jia's body recovered a little, he couldn't help it again and began to steal wine and drink.

Chen Kang mentioned Guo Jia and gave him a punch in the stomach, and the soft punch shook violently.

Wow.

Guo Jia spit out all the wine he had just drunk.

This meal was drunk in vain.

Guo Jia said angrily: "Chen Kang, Shi can be killed, but not humiliated." You actually beat me. ”

Chen Kang said: "If I really want to beat you, I can easily crush you to death." Guo Fengxiao, I warn you again cautiously, you must quit drinking. If you want to die young, you can do it. I will ask the lord to replace all the subordinates in your house. Replaced by the lord's personal guards and ugly-looking healthy women. ”

Chen Kang smashed the wine jar with one palm, and the wine spilled on the ground.

The smell of wine permeated the entire Guo Mansion.

Chen Kang left the Guo Mansion.

Guo Jia's angry voice came from behind: "Chen Kang, you don't let me drink, don't let me like beauties." I'm at odds with you! ”

……

"Sir, it's a letter from Her Royal Highness the Princess." The porter handed a letter to Chen Kang.

Chen Kang opened the letter and looked at it.

Liu Yi still left Yanzhou.

She went to Dong Zhuo for revenge.

When Dong Zhuo was in Luoyang, he could be described as a bastard and lawless.

The concubines of the first emperor in the palace were basically slept with by Dong Zhuo.

If Liu Yi wasn't smart and hid it better, I'm afraid he would also be harmed by Dong Zhuo.

His younger brother Liu Xie was toyed with by Dong Zhuo.

In public and private, Liu Yi has to go to Chang'an City to get rid of Dong Thief.

Chen Kang said secretly: "I instructed Liu Yi in martial arts, for Liu Yi, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse." If Liu Yi didn't know martial arts, maybe she would live a peaceful life. I learned martial arts......"

After learning martial arts and becoming a martial arts master, Liu Yi was not willing to be dull.

With a sharp weapon in his heart, he has a murderous heart.

After practicing martial arts to the realm of a grandmaster, it is natural for Liu Yi to want to go to Chang'an City for revenge.

Chen Kang turned around and went to Cao Cao's state governor's mansion.

……

Cao Cao was surprised: "Mr. Chen Kang, are you going to Chang'an City?" ”

Chen Kang nodded and said, "Her Royal Highness the princess left Yanzhou and went to Chang'an to assassinate Dong Zhuo. Although she is a martial arts master, she will definitely not be able to beat Li Dao, Guo Yan and others, not to mention that there is also a Lu Bu. I'm worried she'll have an accident. ”

The combat effectiveness of a martial arts master is on par with that of a first-class martial artist.

It's just that first-class martial artists are better at horse fighting, and martial arts masters are good at foot combat.

Liu Yi has good martial arts, but he has no experience in walking the rivers and lakes.

If she goes to Chang'an, there is a high probability that she will be exposed.

If Chen Kang doesn't go to Chang'an, Liu Yi is afraid that he will never come back.

Cao Cao smiled and said, "Mr. Chen Kang, you still can't let go of Princess Liu Yi." ”

Chen Kang said: "Lord, I have no love with Princess Liu Yi. ”

Cao Cao laughed: "Princess Liu Yi may not agree with you. Mr. Chen Kang, go early and come back early. ”

With Chen Kang's martial arts, Cao Cao believed that he would definitely be able to bring Liu Yi back safely.
