Great Zhou Tianzi

The person sent to Wei Guo to inquire about the news came back and said that someone had seen Er Hu and his son, and they went directly through Wei Guo to Da Zhou, and they should have settled in Da Zhou.

After listening to this, Ji Jie once again felt that the name Erhu was a little familiar, as if we had heard it before, but couldn't remember it at all. Thinking about it carefully, the scope of activities in Dazhou was only Wangcheng and Zhaocheng, the back-seat fief. Not out of these two places.

"Sister Qing, send two people to Tuolongguan to look for Ji Jian immediately!" Ji Jie ordered: "Let him cast a wide net to find this Erhu. The most important thing is to find his son. Once found, send the news to him immediately." return!"

"Okay!" Qin Qing went to do it immediately, and both hands and men rushed to Tuolong Pass day and night.

King Zhao Xiang issued a letter of credence to the Wei envoy, which clearly stated that Yingzheng's mother and son would be released back to Qin after five years. Of course, the premise was that the Qin army would not harass Zhao's border within five years, otherwise the deadline would be indefinite extension.

So far, since it proved that the rescue of Zhao Ji's mother and child was a complete failure, Guo Kai, Zhao Mu and a group of ministers have returned the gifts they received before, but the returned things have obviously shrunk.

These people can be considered to have contributed, let's keep some of them, Ji Jie is very open to these.

Prince Zhao Qian couldn't help, Ji Jie urged the tunnel warriors who were digging the tunnel to speed up and try to complete the homework within seven days. Now that the letter of credence has been issued, he, the envoy of Wei, has to leave at a certain time, otherwise he will be attacked by sensitive people suspicion.

Four days later, the two people who went to Tuolong Pass returned, accompanied by Ji Jian and several followers.

"Ji Jian, why are you here?" Ji Jie warmly hugged him, and after two months of not seeing him, this guy has become much stronger.

"Hehe, Tuolongguan has settled down. I heard that your majesty has done some earth-shattering events in Zhao and Wei, so I can't wait to follow you!" Ji Jian said with a smile: "We are now strong and powerful. I waved three thousand new troops in one breath, and trained them completely according to the method you gave me, and it has been quite effective for more than a month!"

After Zhao Ling arrived at Tuolongguan, he was directly appointed as the general of the cavalry battalion, commanding 1000 or [-] soldiers.And Ji Xueling, who volunteered to become the leader of the assassination team, led her soldiers to practice hidden weapons and assassinations all day long, raising the overall strength of the assassination team to a new level.

"That's great, you're quite capable!" Ji Jie patted Ji Jian's shoulder, and said with relief, "It seems that the decision to keep you was the right one!"

"Your Majesty is absurd, how can I recruit so many soldiers with my little ability!" Ji Jie said modestly: "This is mainly because of your prestige, and people nearby heard that you have taken over the camel dragon. Guan, they came here in groups of three or four, not only took in three thousand new troops, but also added thousands of farmers, we have plenty of fertile farmland!"

Ji Jie introduced Ji Jian to Qin Qing, who was so stupid that he almost called her sister-in-law directly, but fortunately he was stopped in time, otherwise he really didn't know how it would end.

Ji Jian also brought good news that Erhu had found him, and so had his son.

What surprised Ji Jie was that Erhu was the farmer he saw when he returned to Zhaocheng for the first time and was beaten up by Hei Kui, and his son was also Xiaohu!

That night, if Xiaohu hadn't sent the news of the robbers' sneak attack in time, there might not be many people left in Zhaocheng who could breathe. Thinking about his tiger-headed appearance, who would have thought that he was Wang Zizheng!

"At first I wanted to bring their father and son here, but Princess Xueling said it was too dangerous!" Ji Jian said with a smile: "Your Majesty may not have thought that Erhu is now a defender of Tuolongguan. Watching a group of children who are like gourds painting gourds and training with the new army, let alone, they look good!"

This is really good news. Wang Zizheng has been found, and more than half of the mission has been completed. Moreover, he is now in Tuolong Pass, and Zhao Guo's power is difficult to reach. The most important thing right now is to rescue Zhao Ji. Sent to Qin.

After drinking for three rounds, Ji Jie said to Ji Jian: "Tuolongguan has just arrived in our hands, and the foundation is stable. I think you should go back early, so that I will have confidence in my heart!"

Ji Jian waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. With General Zhao Ling around, he is absolutely safe! He was born in the border camp of the Zhao Army, and his ability to defend the city is better than mine. Besides, there is Princess Xueling in charge, so there is nothing wrong with it. Don't you You know, Brother Zhao and I hit it off right away, and we sworn brothers with different surnames!"

"Really, that's great!" Ji Jie picked up the wine bowl, and the two happily drank another bowl.

"I don't know what new plans you have after going back this time?" Ji Jian said with a worried look on his face, "We now have a territory and people, but the daily food and salary expenditure of the three thousand new troops is huge." It’s terrible, if it wasn’t for the large amount of floating wealth obtained during the victory, and it can last for a while, it would have been stretched!”

Ji Jie also thought about this problem. As the saying goes, agriculture is the foundation of a country, and business is the road to a prosperous country. Having a territory can only be regarded as barely gaining a foothold. If you want to make the country rich and strong, you must have a strong business as the backing, otherwise everything is empty talk .

In terms of doing business, he can ask Qinqing for help, but that can only be to teach him a fish. Tuolongguan must have its own handicraft manufacturing industry, produce some things that cannot be made in other places, and then use Qinqing's commercial channels Only by selling can you make a lot of money.

What can be done?

After humbly asking for advice, Ji Jie acquired contemporary business knowledge from Qin Qing. The most profitable business is nothing more than the trading of silk, armaments, salt and grain, as well as the business of livestock and horses.

These are all traditional industries, Ji Jie is not interested, he knows that even if he exerts 120 points of strength, he will never dream of surpassing Qin Qing in this life.

Of course, if he could successfully trick her into becoming his wife, it would be tantamount to controlling a huge business group, but this is a rare thing, and it is not Ji Jie's character to put all his attention on it.

As a man, you have to rely on your own strength to achieve your goals.

He took out the letter brought by Ji Jian, which was written by Ji Xueling to him. The few lines of seal characters embroidered on the silk enshrined endless lovesickness. He slapped himself on the head and said to himself: "How many times? Sending someone to Tuolongguan, why didn’t I think of bringing a letter to Ling’er, what a failure! Woohoo, I used to develop the habit of sending short messages on my mobile phone, and I forgot about writing letters a long time ago A form of communication!"

Ji Jian's eyes fell on the silk letter paper again, and suddenly he had an idea. Paper has not appeared in this era, so why not make it and earn the first pot of gold?

Paper can completely replace other writing materials, which shows that the emergence of this thing is revolutionary and cannot be underestimated.

The compass has already been "invented" by him, coupled with the papermaking technology that he just thought of, taking the time to implement black powder and printing technology, the four great inventions will come out ahead of schedule!

Ji Jie began to search for the knowledge he learned in his student days, hoping to find a way to make paper through these.
