The revival of Shu Han

Chapter 34 Deep Cultivation in Fuling County ([-])

Two or several kinds of things can get new things through specific reactions, which is the beauty of chemistry.

Seeing Guan Yi fiddling there for a long time, turning a pot of lard into several different things, everyone was dumbfounded.

"Let's talk about the first thing first, which is called soap. Its cleaning ability is so strong that it surpasses all the soap or saponins currently on the market. You can try it for yourself later."

"The second thing is oil wax. The candles made by him emit bright light, and the smoke and smell are very small."

"The third thing is the clear liquid that is finally filtered out, called glycerin. With it, I can turn all the wild fruits in the mountains and plains of Fuling County into sweet wine!"

"You have all seen the cost of these three things, they are very low. Therefore, these three products of ours can completely enter the homes of ordinary people in the Han Dynasty, the Puppet Wei Dynasty, and the Eastern Wu Dynasty. With such a large amount, you can calculate the profit yourself. How many?"

Zhang Zun: My God, I finally understand why you have to explain to us so carefully before doing these things, brother...

Zhao Yi: Well, that's how it is.It seems that the hunting team cannot stop working in winter.Still have to catch more piglets.

Sun Gang: Guowei, it is of course good to catch this piglet, but there are ways to catch brother if he can't.Well, Jian Wushuang, is there anything pigs can eat...

Simple: Sun Dinglie, what are you talking about.Well, but I have some medicine stones here, you can try them out.

"Okay, okay, what are you talking about. This sow can give birth to piglets when it is 8 months old. Instead, calculate the cost of these things in detail, and then ask Mi Boyao to come over in person."

"Here! The prefect is a great talent, pay homage to him."

"Brother is talented, I'll wait to worship you."

"Hahahahahaha, what is this? I remember that before I left Fuling County, I asked the Mi family to build me fifty large boats of five hundred shi, although Mi Boyao and I later found out that there were many hidden reefs in the lanes of the Wujiang River, so we stopped this agreement. But I was really not kidding at the time. Speaking of which, although these things are very profitable, they are not big, so how can they fill so many ships?"

"Brother means that there are still new things that have not been brought out."

"Well, there are indeed some new things that have not been brought out. The main reason is that it is not the time yet. Funds and manpower are far from enough. We have to sell these small things first, collect funds, and exchange them for food. Use food to attract five people. The Ximans went down the mountain to join them. Use the new manpower to expand production, get more funds and food, and attract more people... I have set a goal of doubling the population of Fuling County within three years, and doubling it in five years , not just kidding."

"I have great confidence in my brother."

"Yes, with my brother leading us, these goals will definitely be achieved as scheduled."

"It's good, it's so much bullshit. Now that everyone smells like lard, is it still fun to stay here? They're all gone, go back to take a shower and change clothes. Xiao Qi, I'll leave the rest to you."

"Here, please rest assured, Patriarch."

……

At the time of You, the sun was setting and the sky was beginning to darken.After Guan Yi and Qiao Qiang had dinner and teased the two cubs, who were already more than one meter long, they were ready to turn off the lights and go to bed.At this time, Guan Suo's voice sounded from outside the window: "Zifeng, come out and accompany Third Uncle for a walk."

The two uncles and nephews walked from the backyard of the prefect's mansion to the gate, and on the mountainside, they looked at the Wujiang River flowing under their feet.After a while, Guan Suo spoke.

"The third uncle has been ashamed all these years. When the second brother passed away, he should have come back, but he was afraid that others would say that I coveted my father's title and go home to rob the family property with my nephew, so..."

"Well, I understand."

"You are fine, but Third Uncle has doubts."

"Well, you are asking why I know so much?"

"Ah."

"Third Uncle, over the past 20 years, at least until two years ago, I was in the same situation as you. I am a bastard. I have to fly around every day and not do my job."

"So I read a lot of miscellaneous books and met a lot of strange people and strange things?"

Hey, this third uncle is really good at brainstorming.Great, saves me a lot of explaining.

"Of course."

"Yes, this is a blessing in disguise. But Chi Nuer, you are the head of the Guan family now, don't you have any other ideas? Are you going to die here?"

"Well, in fact, my nephew did have such an idea before. The things in CD City are too complicated, and my nephew doesn't want to get involved."

"Well, the battle between the main battle and the main peace, the dispute between foreigners and natives, Jingzhou people must suppress Yizhou people and beware of Dongzhou people making trouble. Yizhou people have always wanted to seize the power of the court. Dongzhou people are not willing to be marginalized ...Hey, it's really annoying. The third uncle didn't want to get stuck in it, so he went to Nanzhong."

"However, after my nephew arrived in Fuling County, my original thinking changed a bit."

"Because elders, family members, bosses, colleagues... so many people care for you?"

"Well, there is also the approval of the people."

"It's true, third uncle has only been here in Fuling County for three months, and he has already felt the respect and love for you from the people of the whole county."

"So, my nephew is a little addicted to being an official."

"Hahahaha, Chi Nuer, you are very good. But after all, you are still a little young." Guan Suo patted Guan Yi on the shoulder: "Because you are young, and you are the first one to voluntarily give up CDs in more than 30 years Rong Hua, you are a descendant of Yuan Cong who came to a small remote county to be an official close to the people. So the big man dotes on you from top to bottom. But this kind of favoritism can only be for a while, it cannot be for a lifetime."

"Uncle is right. My nephew, at least so far, is poor in Fuling County. No one will take my nephew seriously. It's okay if someone favors you. If Fuling County becomes more and more prosperous in the future, or your nephew My son's official position is getting bigger and bigger. All kinds of coveting, attacking and even framing are coming."

"Since you know all this, why are you so eager to express your opinion?"

Guan Suo's statement refers to the fact that Guan Yi sent supplies to General Jiang Wei's mobile corps.Although in Guan Yi's view, that little thing is a local product, the problem is how poor Fuling County is in the eyes of the officials of the Shu Han court.Such a poor place sent so many things there.This is undoubtedly a political statement: I, Guan Yi, support the Northern Expedition!

"Third Uncle, do you think that after the spring of this year, soaps and waxes will be launched on a large scale. After summer, various fruit wines will be launched on a large scale. Even if I haven't made a statement at that time, won't all forces force me to make a statement? ? At that time, can I pretend to be confused? If so, I might as well take the initiative to express my opinion."

The stance of politicians is actually standing in line.What Guan Yi means is: now my power is very small, and everyone doesn't care about my existence.Of course there is no need to express your opinion.But when Fuling County prospers and my power becomes stronger, I have to make a statement.That being the case, instead of being forced to express my opinion by others, it is better for me to take the initiative.

Speaking of it, the current political ecology of the Shu Han is no longer what it was in Zhuge Liang's era.

The political factions in Zhuge Liang's era were basically unified in terms of geography and political views.In other words, the general Yuancong faction and Jingzhou faction advocated the Northern Expedition.The Eastern State faction was ambiguous.The Yizhou faction basically opposed it.

But now, due to the fact that the Northern Expedition has not achieved decisive results for many years, the descendants of the Yuan Cong faction have gradually been abandoned, and the Jingzhou faction has no successors.All of these have gradually blurred the geographical distinctions among the political factions of the Shu Han.

There are actually two factions in the current Shu Han internal political faction: support the Northern Expedition or oppose the Northern Expedition.

In the twelfth lunar month of the 20th year of Yanxi, Guan Yi made a clear statement: I support the Northern Expedition.

"You're right. Uncle San also knows that by this autumn at the most, Fuling County will be so prosperous that it attracts the attention of the world. At that time, gods from all walks of life will come to you to gain some benefits. Instead of being forced to take refuge in someone in a hurry If the faction seeks protection, it is better to clarify your attitude now. From this point of view, you are right. It's just..."

"Third Uncle is worried about Zhuge Siyuan's reaction?"

"Yeah, this guy actually has the face to say that he is the prime minister's successor. Didn't he see that the prime minister's real heir would go all out for the Northern Expedition! This guy wants to be the leader of Jingzhou people, and he throws out political opinions to stop the Northern Expedition to please Yi People from the state. Hmph, are people from Yizhou just someone who can be appeased by stopping the Northern Expedition? Besides, if the big man doesn’t make the Northern Expedition, wouldn’t he really degenerate into Liu Zhang?”

"What the third uncle said is true. If I, the great Han, do not make the Northern Expedition, the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty will not be reflected. It is just a separatist regime entrenched in Western Shu."

"However, having said that, Zhuge Siyuan is the son of the prime minister after all, and his reputation among the people is unmatched for a while. Moreover, he is small in stature and very powerful. You have made it clear that the chariots and horses do not support his political views... "

"Hehehe, don't worry third uncle. Zhuge Siyuan is a man who is more resourceful than decisive. He is not a person who can do great things. If he is annoyed, it's okay. At worst, I will be my Bailihou in Fuling County! Besides! Now, my nephew will not be a soft persimmon at the mercy of others at that time!"

"So, you want to completely win over the descendants of Yuan Cong, separate the Yuan Cong faction from the Jingzhou faction, and raise the flag yourself?"

"Third uncle is very smart! But my nephew doesn't want to be the leader of the dandy party. What my nephew wants to be is the new backbone of the Northern Expedition Party!"

"Tch~~~ It's not big or small, what are you talking about smart? Is that the word used by juniors to evaluate elders. Speaking of which, have you considered Uncle Liao's feelings when you express your kindness to the general?"

"Well, you mean Uncle Liao, before I delivered the things to the General, I have already greeted Uncle Yong through Uncle Yong. I am expressing my opinion. Uncle also supported the Northern Expedition."

"Okay." Guan Suo suddenly hugged Guan Yi's shoulders forcefully: "Chi Nuer, now there are only two of us in the Guan family. Do it well, no matter what you do, third uncle will help You. Third Uncle doesn’t know if the big man can revive you. But what Third Uncle knows is that you will definitely be able to revive our Guan family!”
