Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 727
Reply from the Privy Council: The application is approved, but in addition to providing necessary personnel support, if Jiangnan Dao wants to get funding from the imperial court, it will be regarded as a loan, but interest will not be calculated, and private ones will be counted separately. In addition, the Yangtze River Navy, Nanhai Navy, and Jiangnan Dao garrison expenses Jiangnan Dao is responsible for it, and Jiangnan Dao is also responsible for officials' salaries.

Zhou Xin's every move was reported to Zhou Cang by Jin Yiwei. He was quite satisfied with his son's performance, but he still sent a letter to Zhou Xin, asking him to solve his personal problems within three years, and take his wife with him in one year. Returning to Beijing to report on work, three years later I will bring the child into the house.

It's not that no one proposed marriage to Zhou Cang, and it's not that no one wanted to send a beautiful woman to warm Zhou Xin's bed, but both of them politely declined.After receiving the letter from his father, Zhou Xin felt extremely dizzy.

Qu Feng first taught Zhou Xin a lot of experience, as well as the real deeds of his ancestors. Pei Yuanshao helped others with work, his grandfather Lu Bu relied on his own reputation, and his father Qu A relied on his own force to win the favor of Li Qiao, Yan Shi and Lu Qiling. Fang Xin; the most unrestrained one is Zhang Fei, just because he fell in love with Xiahou family in Sangyuan, he carried it home directly to the bridal chamber; the most romantic one is Duan Muling, who met Ma Yunlu in the grassland, and the two fell in love with each other, under Ma Chao's eyes Elope together...

Zhou Xin was puzzled, where did Qu Feng first find out these things, it is almost comparable to Jin Yiwei.But Qu Fengxian said it well, he can't stay in the mansion all day busy reviewing official documents, making plans, and listening to reports, but should go out, have a look, and understand the people's sentiments.

Wu County has jurisdiction over fifteen counties, and the government is located in Wu County, so the seat of Wu State.The most famous place in Wu County is Huqiu. King Helu of Wu was buried here. It is said that he hid three thousand swords, including Bianzhu and Yuchang, in the depths of the palace. King Goujian of Yue and Emperor Yingzheng of Qin Sun Quan, the Lord of Wu and the Lord of Wu all searched for treasures and swords but found nothing.Qu Feng first knew that what Zhou Xin caught was the Yitian Sword when he captured Zhou, so he urged Zhou Cang to come to Huqiu, and naturally said to the outside world that this was where Sun Wu trained his troops, so he came to watch.

Zhou Xin has no intention of traveling in mountains and rivers, nor of swords, so he only goes to the market.It was nearly May at this time, and the competitions in various counties had ended, so players from all over the country began to come to Wu County one after another. Tiger Hill, the No. , selling their own things, mostly tea, bamboo wares, and silk fabrics, as well as homemade pastries and other food.

"My lord, there is a tea shed in front, why don't you go in and have a rest and have a cup of tea?" Mu Nan said.

The tea shed is not big, with three tables and four benches for each table. The simple version of the Eight Immortals table has been popularized in the homes of ordinary people.The old couple greeted the guests in front, served tea and water, and a little girl boiled water in the back.

Zhou Xin, Qu Fengxian, Mu Nan, and the chief bookkeeper Li Hao sat down. "Old man, bring a pot of tea."

"Three young masters, you are not locals, you just have this year's new tea here." An old man who looked about 50 years old hurriedly wiped the table and greeted his wife to serve tea. "I'm not bragging about this tea. Although I can't tell you it's famous, it's grown in the back of my house, picked by my daughter, and the three guards are satisfied."

After staying in Wu County for several months, Zhou Xin could barely understand Wu language, but he didn't understand why the tea picked by the girl would taste different.Look carefully at the brown color, take a sip, it is really good, not inferior to the drink in my house, nodded and said: "The color is like jade, the taste is like orchid, very good. What is the old man's surname? May I ask how old is the old man?"

The old man smiled and said, "Don't dare, dare not. My surname is Li, and I'm forty-two this year..."

Qu Fengxian almost spit out the tea, 42?His father, Qu'a, is only about this age, so he seems to be about the same age as his grandmother, Lu's.Zhou Xin glared at Qu Fengxian: "How do you know the hard work of tea farmers?"

The old man shook his head and said, "Actually, I was weaving mats. I heard that Jiangbei collects tea everywhere, so I also planted dozens of plants on the mountain, which can produce three or two catties of good tea every year. I opened a tea shed here to subsidize my family. ’” Sure enough, there were more than ten seats beside the tea shed.

Li Hao said softly: "The Book of Rites says: Come out and sit on the banquet. That's it."

"Hahaha, Kuai Xi, the ears of the head of Guizhou." Three people walked in from the outside. The leader was about 30 years old, with a fair face and no beard, but he was born with a good face. "Old man, bring us a pot of tea."

"The "Poetry" says: Although there are silks and hemps, there is no abandonment of Jian Kuai." Li Hao refuted it by citing Zuo Zhuan.

The man was taken aback, he didn't expect a follower to be so knowledgeable, he couldn't help looking at Zhou Xin and the others, although the clothes were not luxurious, but his body was extravagant, not ordinary people.He clasped his fists and said, "I'm Liu Xiu in Xiangyang, whose name is Ji Xu. These two are Kong Jia from Lu County and Fan Li from Bohai. May I ask your name?"

Mu Nan only pondered, and whispered to Zhou Xin: "Liu Xiu is the youngest son of Liu Biao, Kong Jia, and Fan Li are the sons of Kong Yu and Fan Kang, respectively, among the eight handsome men."

Ok?I only heard that Liu Biao had two sons, Liu Qi and Liu Cong, why did they come out to repair each other?Zhou Xin was taken aback.He clasped his fists in return and said: "Jiu Yang, my surname is Zhou, these are my friends, passing by for a rest." He really didn't have a good impression of Liu Xiu, and he didn't want to talk too much when he heard that he was Liu Biao's son.

Liu Xiu took a soft nail, and Kong Jia called out, "Why isn't tea served yet?"

Zhou Xin frowned slightly.Mu Nan whispered again: "Cao Cao attacked Jingzhou, Liu Xiu followed Liu Qi across the river, and then Liu Qi returned to Xiangyang with Liu Bei, and Liu Xiu stayed in Xiakou area. This person is flashy, Cao Zijian said after reading his article: Liu Jixu is not good at the author, but good at slandering Oh, the article, it's good for the disease. Ji Xu is so trivial, so it's not worth mentioning."

So that's the case, Zhou Xin nodded, Cao Zhi's eyesight is naturally not bad, it seems that this Liu Xiu is indeed so unreasonable.Mu Nan continued, "Kong Yu is Kong Rong's younger brother, and Kong Jia is Kong Rong's nephew."

Really like people flock together, Zhou Xin gently shook his head again.The work of the Espionage Department and Jin Yiwei is really not a rumor, but they have inquired so thoroughly.

Seeing that Zhou Xin and the others had no intention of talking to them, Liu Xiu and the others whispered there, presumably talking about themselves, feeling unhappy, and vented their anger on the old man who was busy cleaning the table and pouring water: "You old man is so unreasonable!" , I think your maid who boils water is pretty smart, why didn't you come to entertain us?"

Qu Fengxian came up angrily, turned his head and glared, why?Do you want to tease a decent woman?Although he couldn't see her appearance, the woman was still very graceful from the back view. Based on his experience, Jiangnan women's looks were naturally not bad.

Fan Li interpreted this as a provocation and immediately retaliated.The old man Li was frightened, and he hurriedly said: "Don't blame the guest, please have tea."

Zhou Xin pulled Qu Fengxian lightly, and asked Old Man Li, "What's the name of this tea?"

"It's just wild tea in the mountains, where did it get its name." The old man smiled.
