Fish swimming around the world

"I'm afraid the Imperial Master will be disappointed. I still eat whole grains and grains, and suffer from birth, old age, illness and death. How can an immortal do this?"

Xu Fu said: "But His Highness must be the most immortal person in this world."

"Those in Kunlun are the ones who are closest to immortals." Jiang Fan said with a smile: "The national master's immortal style has a strong intention to become an immortal. Could it be related to the holy land of Kunlun?"

Xu Fu's eyes moved slightly, but he stroked his beard and smiled: "Your Highness, if this old man can get the Kunlun Gate, how can he still miss the earthly place?"

Jiang Fan's eyes flashed slightly, and he put on a mysterious expression: "National Master... they all say that a person from Kunlun will be born in one year, who will walk in the world, understand the world of mortals, and temper his Taoist heart. I haven't heard of this person recently. Who is it? Now that the boy has seen that the master’s immortal style and his alchemy skills are the best in the world, I think it is very possible..."

Xu Fu laughed loudly: "Your Highness, please don't talk nonsense. I think so, but it's a pity that I can't get in. Your Highness is a genius and has great opportunities. Maybe one day we will meet you. At that time, I hope that your Highness will recommend you." Ichiban."

He seemed to be chatting and laughing casually, but every word he spoke was inseparable from immortality and immortality. Jiang Fan became increasingly vigilant.

Fortunately, Xu Fu did not continue to say more, but said: "I came here this time to congratulate His Highness, and to refine a few elixirs for Your Highness to taste."

Just when Jiang Fan was about to refuse, something suddenly moved in his mind. He wanted to see what the elixir Xu Fu had concocted, so he raised his hand and said, "The master of the country is very good at alchemy, and the elixir he concocted is a treasure in the world. Jiang Fan is disrespectful."

Xu Fu then placed a sandalwood box on the table, stood up and said, "Thank you so much, Your Highness. Your Highness is busy with affairs at home, so I won't bother you too much. I will visit you another day."

Jiang Fan did not hold back and ordered Ding Shaoan to take some tea leaves and give them to Xu Fu.

After he left, Jiang Fan looked at the wooden box on the table and frowned.

Ding Shaoan returned to the room and said, "Sir, we have already sent him away. This Imperial Master is very generous. He sent a cartful of all kinds of treasures and rare medicinal materials."

Jiang Fan stared at the elixir for a while: "Send this thing to me in the secret room and don't let anyone else touch it."

Ding Shaoan saw something wrong with Jiang Fan's expression and hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Xu Fu, Xu Fu...

Jiang Fan sat quietly alone for a long time, his eyes constantly changing...

——

Besides Meng Ao and Xu Fu, Jiang Fan met an unexpected person, Li Xiu.

Jiang Fan was very interested in this one of the three men in charge of Da Qin's criminal law. And Li Xiu was also shocked by Jiang Fan's unintentional idea of ​​governing the country by law, especially Jiang Fan's theory that "everyone is equal before the law, and princes who commit crimes are equally guilty as common people". He was even more shocked and entangled. Jiang Fan discussed it for a long time before leaving with a heart full of admiration.

He had never thought that Jiang Fan's legal attainments were so profound and advanced, opening a door that he had never seen before. But Jiang Fan was a little worried. He didn't know if he had listened to his warning that he shouldn't do anything in one fell swoop, but should assess the situation slowly and make plans accordingly. If you are impatient, you may not end well. After thinking about it, I felt that talking to him was a bit too much.

However, Jiang Fan felt that this man was extremely scheming, and seemed to be extremely repulsive to various schools of thought. Although there was no trace of it, Jiang Fan could feel that his words were very targeted.

The most unexpected thing was to receive a congratulatory note from Gao Qi, the current military marshal. The least surprising thing was that the villain Tu Gaorong didn't say anything at all.

This person has always been targeted at Jiang Fan, and is the only villain who has ever opposed Jiang Fan's title of king in the court. Jiang Fan always feels a little confused. There is no doubt that this person is loyal to the empress, but why is he so unhappy with himself?

On this day, the three princes and nine ministers sent congratulatory gifts one after another. However, they also understood that they were not familiar with Jiang Fan and could not come rashly. Most of them did not come to disturb him. Jiang Fan also ordered someone to send invitations, inviting everyone to gather at Penglai Residence the following evening as a return gift.

No matter what, Jiang Fan's unprecedented title of king shocked the entire Qin Dynasty, and the officialdom was even more ups and downs. Even the people are talking about it everywhere. Although this king is just a free king who doesn't care about state affairs.

In the evening, Ding Shaoan, who was in charge of counting the gifts, and Sister Xieyuhua's faces were filled with joy, and their eyes were like copper coins.

"Young master, you have become rich. The gifts you received today are worth ten thousand taels of gold."

Jiang Fan said with disdain: "Brother Taohua, look at your worthless look. These things are all favors and will need to be repaid in the future."

Ding Shaoan hurriedly said: "Master, please stop. I can't bear the name of Brother Taohua. Please don't scream in front of others."

Jiang Fan shook his head and laughed: "Never mind them, young master, I am still the same Jiang Fan. Okay, everyone has a busy day today. Well, the nanny of the Jie family sisters is also here. I will make something good tonight. You can eat, drink and have fun tonight. The wine manager Enough! Also, don't forget to send it to the Shan brothers and sisters. There is a happy event in the house these two days. Let them rest for two days. I will finally make a king of Xiaoyao. Don't make it look like I made a king of Yama. "

Ding Shaoan's peach blossom eyes began to glow: "Thank you, Master."

Before the renovation was completed, Jiang Fan had another major event, reorganizing his fiefdom - Lishan County.

Fortunately, there was no shortage of money, so Jiang Fan just did it together. However, his idea for Lishan is extremely grand, and it cannot be accomplished overnight. He can only roughly sort out the venues that must be used.

It’s time for all the workshops to be launched.

Manpower, manpower is becoming increasingly scarce.

Luckily, as Jiang Fan was expecting, a month later, the Black Mountain Eight Bears and the second group of 300 people from the Gongshu family finally arrived in Yangdu. Coincidentally, with hundreds of craftsmen working day and night, many rooms in Fanrenju and Qinglianyuan were already equipped, enough for everyone to stay.

With Gongshu coming, Jiang Fan was finally freed, and all these miscellaneous matters could be done by Gongshu family according to the manuscript.

During this period, Jiang Fan hardly left his house. Except for the extra manuscripts sent to the empress every day, he hid in the study and the so-called laboratory day and night to work hard. Except for Gongshu Yu and others who knew a little, others didn't know what he was busy with.

During this period, Zhao Gao's library also successfully launched the first volume of "Three Kingdoms". As soon as this wonderful book came out, it was warmly welcomed by all literati, generals, peddlers and hawkers.

In addition to the popularity of the book itself, the most amazing thing is that this volume is not made of bamboo or wood slips or expensive rice paper, but a kind of paper that is as thin as a cicada's wing and as white as snow. A thin volume actually records 100,000 words. And each word is neat, square, and extremely exquisite. Not only that, this volume of "Three Kingdoms" is divided into two versions-hardcover and paperback.

The hardcover version is packaged in a pear wood box with carved patterns. The cover is calfskin wrapped in hard paper with exquisite patterns, and the paper inside is as white as jade. This hardcover version is very expensive, costing five taels of silver per volume, which is equivalent to the income of an ordinary family for three or four months.

But the paperback version, except for the cover of soft paper, is slightly worse than the hardcover version. The price is extremely cheap, only one hundred coins. This made the people of Yangdu who love "Three Kingdoms" praise the benevolence of King Xiaoyao.

Officials, wealthy families, and poets and scholars naturally want the hardcover edition. Who would look down on such a thing? Even a small official would not be stingy with the five taels of silver. This is a collection.

But the paperback edition is not much worse. Just look at the paper. The cost must be very high. Why is it so cheap? It has aroused many questions. After all, the number of people who buy the paperback edition is the largest. But when you think about the scary price of the hardcover edition, most people can understand it.
