The sky in Jingbei is full of dark clouds, but the sky in Jingnan is clear.

There are still 100 miles away from Jiaozhi County, which is still the territory of Changsha County.

A simple village, visible to the naked eye is the black whetstone in front of each farmhouse.

In this village, it seems that every household is proficient in the ability to "sharpen knives".

At the entrance of the village, hang a plaque with the words "Luohan Village".

And in one of these farmhouses, Lu Xun was lying on the bed at the moment.

The bright sun shone in, he had a severe high fever, his forehead was covered with a wet handkerchief, his lips were chapped, and he dreamed: "I want to climb up step by step, step by step... I'm going to..."

The head is so hot that I am already a little unconscious.

A few days ago, after determining the delivery time and place of the partial van, wooden oxen and flowing horses, and repeating crossbows.

Lu Xun and Sun Ru rushed from Jiangling to Jingnan and Changsha non-stop.

It happened to be a rainy day, but the hat only brought one.

So, Lu Xun gave it to Sun Ru, but he Lu Xun was drenched all over his body, and he had a heavy fever for several days.

Sun Ru sat on the edge of the bed and comforted: "Bo Yan, it's okay, it's okay!" ”

Lu Xun seemed to be awakened by this soft reassurance, and he opened his eyes with difficulty, "That ordnance has arrived... Has it arrived? ”

Sun Ru struggled to put on a relaxed smile.

"When I arrived, the people of the Lu family also arrived, and someone had already been sent to inspect it, and the ordnance was hidden in the 'Guanshan', and the remaining part was delivered in these two days."

The so-called Guanshan is the mountain where the soldiers were encamped during the "Guan Gong War in Changsha", such as the "Laodao River", which was named after Guan Gong.

Let's take it into detail.

In the thirteenth year of Jian'an, after Cao Cao's defeat at Chibi, Liu Bei and Sun Quan took the opportunity to expand their territory to the Jingzhou region.

The four counties south of the Yangtze River, Lingling, Wuling, Guiyang, and Changsha, saw that the situation was not good, and planned to surrender to Cao Cao.

Therefore, Liu Bei ordered Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun to lead 3,000 troops each to conquer the three counties of Wuling, Lingling and Guiyang respectively;

Guan Gong led 500 school swordsmen to kill Changsha County.

——"Guan Gong's War in Changsha" also kicked off.

As for this Guan Gong war in Changsha, as sung in the later drama, "The blue-faced Dou Erdun stole the royal horse, and the red-faced Guan Gong fought Changsha", because of the arrival of Guan Gong, many places here are famous all over the world because of this battle.

For example, because Guan Gong's Qinglong Yanyue Knife fell into the water, the "Laodao River" that was picked up by Zhou Cang...

Then there is the "Malan Mountain" named after the public construction of the horse pen. ”

Guan Gong stationed soldiers and horses in the "Guanshan".

As for "Luohan Village", it was after the Qinglong Yanyue Knife was salvaged from the "Laodao River".

The knife was hit by a river stone and a small opening was missing, so the local Luo blacksmith used the rain as the sharpening water for the knife for three days.

From then on, Luo Blacksmith became more famous, and the village where he lived was called "Luohan Village"!

Many guests will come here to "sharpen their knives"!

Today, Lu Xun and Sun Ru live in this Luohan Village, and the location of the arms trade is Guanshan.

As early as three days ago, the Lu family sent a large number of merchant ships, in addition to transporting a sufficient amount of gold, there are also manpower...

It was not an easy task to transport so many ordnance back to Soochow.

That's when it happened.

Lu Xun's son, Lu Yan, walked in.

This is Lu Xun's eldest son, but it was not born by Sun Ru, but born by Lu Xun's deceased wife, who is now fifteen years old.

Seeing the eldest son, Lu Xun weakly stretched out his hand and stroked the child's cheek.

"My son is here? Did you bring gold, silver, and trilogy? ”

"The gold and silver converted into 180,000 grains have been counted several times, and the points are exactly the same." Lu Yan replied. "As for the trilogy, the child didn't dare to bring too much, only five hundred, enough to carry ordnance!"

In history, the record of Lu Xun's eldest son, Lu Yan, was an early death.

Died before the age of twenty!

It was for this reason that the title of the Lu family was inherited by his younger brother Lu Kang.

Although Lu Yan is not very old today, he is quite energetic, and he can already handle many things in the clan at a young age, including some businesses and businesses.

Seeing his father's painful appearance, Lu Yan was a little worried, but reported as usual.

"That Shi Huolong and You Tanzhi live in the 'Malan Mountain' not far away, the child has already negotiated with them according to what his father said, and in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, the people of our Lu family will count the goods, and after counting, the money will be delivered immediately! The next step was to transport the ordnance by water. ”

"Okay!" Hearing this, Lu Xun lay down with relief.

Sun Ru took Lu Yan's hand and said softly: "Yan'er, you are your father's eldest son, and now your father looks like this, I... I really can't leave, and the ordnance matter will be too much work! ”

Sun Ru's name to Lu Yan is "Yan'er", but she claims to be not "Weiniang", but "me"!

Just like in every family, the relationship between the stepmother and the eldest son often seems to be intimate, but in fact they are separated by a mountain.

After listening to Sun Ru's words, Lu Xun echoed, "Your mother is right, people are unpredictable, be careful, cough cough... If anything happens, let me know as soon as possible! ”

"Father, don't worry, the child knows." Lu Yan withdrew his hand from Sun Ru's hand, saluted Lu Xun respectfully, and after saluting Sun Ru, he slowly withdrew from the room.

And when he went out, he saw a bucket of water in the courtyard, and he walked quickly to the bucket, inadvertently put his hand in, and quickly washed it.

There was a little more subtle glint in his eyes.

And this hand...

It's just because he was pulled by his stepmother Sun Ru.

…

…

Changsha County, Guanshan.

There are those who are proficient in arithmetic and are inspecting the goods.

- "Fifty Wooden Oxen and Flowing Horses!" ”

- "Five hundred and sixty-one repeaters!" ”

- "Eighty cars in the van!" ”

As the voices came out, the final numbers came out.

"Yes, it's all right, two of you!"

The younger brother of the Governor of the Seven Counties of Jiaozhou looked at the ordnance hidden in the mountains in front of him, and showed a meaningful smile.

The capital of Shi Huolong and You Tan is here...

Shi Huolong said with a smile: "Today's is here, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, two batches of ordnance will also be delivered, before noon the day after tomorrow, you will check again, determine the final number, and you can trade!" ”

When Shi Huolong said this, You Tanzhi reminded: "I just don't know the money and food that Your Excellency should prepare?" You're ready. ”

"Don't worry..."Shi smiled and patted the two of them on the shoulder, "This is just the beginning, there are still many opportunities for cooperation in the future, I'm not afraid to tell you, we are from Jiaozhou, and we have money there!" ”

Hey...

blurted out these words, Shi Huolong and You Tanzhi looked at each other.

Immediately spoke in unison.

"Bright!"

After that, the three of them agreed to count the number of ordnance again before noon the day after tomorrow.

If there is no discrepancy, immediately... Pay with one hand, deliver with the other.

Instead, he sent the taxi away.

Shi Huolong and You Tanzhi stood in the bright moonlight.

Shi Huolong said with emotion: "Hong Qigong, his old man, this time... It's all these people, it's all around. ”

"Yes..."You Tanzhi took out a piece of dough from his arms, took a bite hard, and handed the dough to Shi Huolong, "Take a bite?" ”

"What kind of bread are you eating..."Shi Huolong smiled and waved his hand, "This ticket is done, in the future... Hong Qigong, his old man, suddenly asked us to eat meat! When the time comes, the days of our beggar gang will be ten times more beautiful than those official masters! ”

Oh, yes...

As Shi Huolong said.

Once upon a time, they were exiles to Gangneung City, they ate and slept in the open air, they were hungry and cold, where was there anyone... cares about their life and death, where is there anyone willing to let them eat a full meal.

But now...

The days are different!

Not to mention a full meal, bread is not rare... Beggars, gotta eat meat!

Follow Hong Qigong and his old man, there is meat to eat!

And as Shi Huolong's voice fell, You Tanzhi stuffed the dough back into his arms.

Suddenly I felt... This bread is not fragrant.

He added with interest, "You say... Will it go well tomorrow? ”

Not...

Shi Huolong directly raised his hand and knocked heavily on his head, "Hong Qigong personally deployed it by his old man, how could it be wrong?" ”

"But..."You Tanzhi knocked his head this time, "But if it's a big deal, what should I do?" ”

"Hahaha..."Shi Huolong smiled, "Hong Qigong, his old man is connected to the sky?" How could he have no backhand? ”

Speaking of this, the eyes of the two met.

Under the moonlight, it adds a touch of beauty.

…

…

Gangneung City, the torture chamber of the thief Cao Peng.

Because of Guan Linfa's small fortune, a batch of brand-new torture instruments were also appropriately purchased here.

At this moment, in the cell, the torches are swaying, the sound of moaning is coming and going, Guan Lin strode in, followed by Guan Yinping, the third sister who was worried about him, and... It's not a big deal to watch the lively Zhang Xingcai.

Ma Binghou was in front of the door, and when he saw Guan Lin arrive, he immediately opened the cell door.

Guan Lin and his entourage entered the prison, and the middle-aged man in front of them was the shopkeeper of the "Changxin Restaurant".

It's just that, unlike the well-dressed in the daytime, his hair is fluffy and his face is haggard.

"Ben Cao Peng will give you another chance, to recruit or not to recruit?"

"I don't know what the official said? How to recruit it? The hoarse tone makes people listen to it, and it is easy to feel sympathy and pity.

Really...

Guan Yinping reminded Guan Lin in a low voice, "Could it really be a mistake, I remember... This shopkeeper doesn't know a single big word, that is, he sorts out the account books, they are all his insiders, and they just cook authentic northern dishes. ”

Just now, Guan Yinping really went to the barracks and asked...

There are a lot of northerners in the Guan family's army, and many people who know this shopkeeper go to the northern dishes that are burned.

Many of the soldiers of the Guan family army are still amazed, saying that the fragrance of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, this shopkeeper does not know a big word, but he can open such a restaurant, all by skill!

"Ahem..."Guan Lin coughed lightly, glanced back at Guan Yinping, and reminded, "Sister, I'm on official business!" ”

At this moment, Guan Yinping closed his mouth, and just stood by Guan Lin's side vigilantly, looking around.

"Not a recruit, right?" Fang Cai was still pleasant, and suddenly, Guan Lin's cheeks became serious, "Okay, that person will be escorted to the court, and this Cao Peng will be tried in person!" ”

- "Let you also see how powerful Ben Cao Peng is!" ”

…

…

Gangneung Castle, the Mi family's mansion.

Mi Fang walked into the house with his tired body, and his son Mi Yang was still writing hard at the table. To be precise, it's hard work.

On his left is a copy of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", and on his right is a table listed according to the theory of "decay" in Chapter 3 of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic"... Trying to draw an answer from this "distribution" line of thought.

Mi Yang muttered from time to time: "There are twelve heads on the top, and thirty-four feet on the bottom... How to solve it with an average distribution list? ”

- Chickens and rabbits in the same cage!

It's still a matter of chickens and rabbits in the same cage.

This problem has been plaguing Miyang for three whole days.

Since that day, 50,000 pieces of grain were delivered to Guan Lin, and the two talked about the problem of "chickens and rabbits in the same cage".

In the past three days, Miyang has been pondering this issue.

From time to time, what flashed in his mind were the words that Guan Lin mentioned.

- "These are just two solutions, one is the hypothetical method, the other is the golden rooster independent method, in fact, similar to this problem of chickens and rabbits in the same cage, there are a total of thirteen solutions!" ”

Thirteen solutions?

The more Mi Yang thought about it, the more esoteric he felt, and the more he felt that Guan Lin was unfathomable.

He racked his brains, and it was just... I came up with one more "table method"...

It can be regarded as a continuation of the "decay" theory of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic".

Can... What about ten?

In later generations, often to the end of mathematical research, people will become "crazy", will fall into the huge "mathematical universe", fall into it, unable to extricate themselves, they will be entangled in any small discovery.

Of course, that was later, in the Han Dynasty... It is only the mathematics under the theory of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", how difficult it is to transcend the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic".

It is no exaggeration to say that Mi Yang was framed in that circle before.

But it's just that Guan Lin... completely opened a window for Mi Yang, allowing him to get out of this circle and reach the wider universe.

This left him trapped in the middle of it, unable to extricate himself.

seemed to have noticed his father's return, Mi Yang was also a little tired, he was very sensible and closed the bamboo slip and greeted his father, "Why did my father come back so late today, is it because he is busy with official business?" ”

"Alas..."Mi Fang waved her hand and sighed helplessly.

"Father, this is?" Mi Yang hurriedly asked.

Mi Fang's eyes looked at the "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" on the case, and then looked at her son, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little lighter, "My son is obsessed with mathematics, but it makes my father feel a lot more relieved... It's just that... That Yun Chang's son is not so worry-free. ”

Yun Chang's son, don't worry?

When these two words came out, Mi Yang blinked his eyes, and immediately realized, "Father is talking about the fourth son, right?" ”

"Who else but him?"

Mi Fang sat paralyzed on the bamboo mat, took off her socks, her fat body was like a round ball, and the whole person looked extremely unsightly.

"Can a father tell his son?"

Mi Yang was curious.

Today, he is only interested in two things.

One is the same cage of chickens and rabbits;

The other is the fourth son who opened a new window for him in the field of mathematics through the problem of chickens and rabbits in the same cage - Guan Lin Guan Yunqi!

"Alas..."Mi Fang let out a long sigh, "You talk about this Guan Yunqi, more than 100 people were arrested in one afternoon, and it is conclusive that these people are Wei spies, but there is no evidence, and there is no handwriting for the arrest of his father, so nonsense, this is in Jiangling City... It's the first time in history! ”

"All afternoon, the whole Gangneung City was full of chickens and dogs, and people were panicking, and there were not a hundred who came to sue him for his father, but eighty, but... How can the relationship between the father and Yun Chang not be suppressed? Can be pressed and pressed, alas... Don't say it, don't say it..."

In the end, Mi Fang was speechless.

Throughout the night, the more he pressed, the more excited the crowd became!

This is easy to understand, Guan Lin is arresting Wei Spy, such as the "Changxin" restaurant, he arrested all the people in the restaurant in one go, it can't be that these people are Wei Spy, right?

The families of the ordinary people are naturally going to make trouble, and there are many people, so why don't they gather together and be excited!

In addition, there is also Li Miao, who "even Uncle Liu Huang" dares to scold.

It can well be imagined... How much pressure is on him?

Even, Mi Fang has a feeling...

Guan Gong has such a son, how can his heart not be tired?

But Guan Gong has such a son, inexplicably, why does he Mi Fang, he also feels tired, tired like a dog!

Rather...

Mi Yang, his eyeballs must be.

It was as if something had suddenly occurred to me.

He muttered, "If... As his father said, Wei Spy and ordinary people were arrested. ”

"So... Now that they are in prison at the same time, Wei Spy must be different from ordinary people, so to speak..."

“… This question becomes, how many Wei spies are there and how many innocent people are there? This is... The problem of chickens and rabbits in the same cage! The fourth son is solving the problem of 'chickens and rabbits in the same cage'! ”

Yes... Yes...

Listening to her son's words, Mi Fang suddenly had an illusion of sorrow to the extreme.

Bite...

Why is his son also stunned?

…
