Three Kingdoms: The Reverse Son of the Guan Family, Dragon Blessing Jingxiang

The ancients were also brand conscious!

However, the brand awareness of the ancients did not refer to a certain "trademark", but to a certain name.

For example, "Made by Lu Ban", and another example...the "Made by Huang Laoxie" that Guan Yu and Ma Liang heard now!

Ma Liang winked at Guan Yu.

Guan Yu understood, waved his hand, and ordered Guan Xing and Guan Yinping.

"Will you all go down?"

"Yes!" Guan Yinping and Guan Xing said goodbye and walked out quickly.

For a time, only Guan Yu and Ma Liang were left in the study.

Ma Liang checked the window and made sure it was tight, then sat back on the bamboo mat and met Guan Yu's eager gaze.

Guan Yu sighed with emotion: "First it was Hong Qigong, and then Huang Laoxie. When did Jingzhou produce so many outstanding people?"

Don't blame him for feeling sad.

Hong Qigong, who had no mountains or water leaks before and had never heard of it, could be said to have made a small plan... and caused turmoil in the entire Jingzhou and Soochow.

Twists and turns...

Until the last moment, it was impossible to tell whether Hong Qigong was an enemy or a friend.

Then, now Hong Qigong has established another "beggar gang"...

Because Zhuyu was in front, Guan Yu and Ma Liang turned a blind eye...

But after all, I am extremely curious about the mysterious identity of "Hong Qigong"!

Zhuyu was in front of him, and now there is another "Huang Laoxie". Guan Yu will inevitably feel even more emotional, and even sigh in his heart.

Speaking of which, Guan Yu was originally very arrogant.

The only people he admires are his eldest brother and Zhuge Kongming. If you add in the recent addition of Lu Zijing, they can be counted as half...

At best, just two and a half.

However, the situation in Jingzhou has been changing recently. The mysterious "Hong Qigong" seems to have tightly controlled the situation with just a few moves...

How could Guan Yu not admire him?

What's more, now there is another "Huang Laoxie".

Before anyone arrived, the ingenious "Liannu" he designed, the "Wooden Ox and Flooding Horse" for transporting grain and grass, and the "Part-carriage" that was the nemesis of the cavalry had already attracted enough attention.

This is also a "monster".

For a moment, Guan Yu felt that he was so proud of himself.

Is he conceited like a caterpillar?

There are many capable people in Jingzhou, hidden dragons and crouching tigers? Is it his turn to be proud of Guan Yu? Is it his turn to be conceited?

Inexplicably, because of Hong Qigong and Huang Laoxie, Guan Yu's state of mind changed drastically.

Ma Liang noticed these changes...

Indeed, compared to the past, Guan Gong's arrogance has dissipated too much in recent times.

I'm afraid that because of Huang Laoxie, this overbearing arrogance will continue to dissipate.

"Guan Gong, this Huang Laoxie... although it is only made into a weapon, does not look like a mountain, and does not leak water, we must not take it lightly."

Ma Liang sighed. ""Mozi Gongshu" records - Gongshu Pan is a tool used by Chu to build ladders. Once completed, they will attack the Song Dynasty. "Huainanzi" says - Lu Ban is Gongshu Pan, a native of Chu. He is a skillful man of the emperor who can make Ladder."

Ma Liang spoke in detail.

"From the end of the Spring and Autumn Period and the beginning of the Warring States Period, Lu Ban emerged, and his invention changed the entire Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The "ladder" he created that could be used for sieges helped the Chu State, which lagged behind other great powers, rise rapidly. , and defeated many countries one after another on the battlefield, destroyed cities and strongholds, and consolidated their position!"

"The 'Wooden Magpie' he invented that can fly for three days without landing... is still a legend among people today. It is impossible to imagine what effect this 'Wooden Magpie' will have if it can be put into the battlefield? This is why, The three words 'Made by Luban' are well known to every household!"

"When it comes to Lu Ban, no matter whether they are princes, generals, or lower-level people, everyone is filled with admiration! Will his stories and inventions be passed down for thousands of years?"

Ma Liang's implication was to make Guan Yu pay attention to this "Huang Laoxie"!

Never underestimate the power of “craftsmen”.

call…

Guan Yu exhaled softly. In fact, Ma Liang's words were unnecessary.

Having witnessed the magic of that "sidecar", how could Guan Yu not look askance at this "Huang Laoxie"?

"Guan read "Spring and Autumn", and it also talked about Lu Ban building ladders to help Chu attack Song Dynasty! But Mozi loved non-attack and wanted to stop this war, so Mozi and Lu Ban went to the palace of Chu to wear clothes and For the city, an offensive and defensive battle was launched using pieces of bamboo as weapons.”

"In the end, Lu Ban's siege equipment was exhausted, but Mozi's defense equipment was still endless. Lu Ban was convinced, and the King of Chu also gave up attacking Song Dynasty!"

Guan Yu said: "Mozi and Lu Ban were both the most outstanding craftsmen in the world at that time. From this 'offensive and defensive battle' in the Chu Palace, we can see that the energy of these outstanding craftsmen cannot be ignored."

As Guan Yu said, to this day, the ladders used in sieges are still engraved with "Made by Lu Ban", this time to commemorate the founder of the "construction industry".

Therefore…

The words "Huang Laoxie" made Guan Yu and Ma Liang's heads tremble.

It's just that... there is too little intelligence and information about this "Huang Laoxie" who has just surfaced, except... Mi Fang mentioned that he is from Jiaozhou... Except for "Shi Huolong" and "You Tanzhi", the others, Nothing.

at this time…

"I have something important to report to the customs general..."

A rough voice came from the door, it was Zhou Cang.

When Guan Jiajun who was standing outside the door saw Zhou Cang, they all stepped aside, and Zhou Cang strode into the study.

Guan Yu and Ma Liang raised their heads and looked at Zhou Cang.

At this time, Zhou Cang could not wait to open his mouth: "We have found out, and we have all been found out on the order of Guan Gong. These Jiaozhou merchants are not from Jiaozhou at all. Shi Huolong and You Tanzhi are both from the north, and what he said is that they are from the north." The origin of the ordnance brought has nothing to do with Jiaozhou, these ordnance are all produced in Jiangling!"

——Jiangling.

——Ordnance is produced in Jiangling!

As soon as these words came out, Guan Yu and Ma Liang were both shocked.

They looked at Zhou Cang in disbelief...

It seems that this information came so unexpectedly...but it was just right.

"What does General Zhou mean?"

Ma Liang asked quickly.

Zhou Cang took out an account book from his arms, handed it to Guan Yu, and said: "Through the visits in the market, there have been people buying wood and stone in Jiangling City on a large scale recently, as well as buying iron and other military materials on the black market. These The place where the material arrived was...exactly..."

Zhou Cang suddenly increased his tone.

——"It's our villa on the outskirts of Jiangling City!"

——"There have been many more workshops recently. According to the people nearby, for several days in a row...these workshops have been working day and night and are busy! In addition to making these ordnance, they are also working on Well?"

…

…

In the backyard of the "Changxin" restaurant, a gentle breeze blew up a few stray strands of Sun Ru's hair.

Sun Ru and You Tanzhi stood face to face.

Just now, You Tanzhi asked Sun Ru where she was a friend.

Sun Ru, who had been specially taught by Lu Xun, now knew a lot about the rules of "trading arms".

She said frankly: "The rule is that you don't ask the host if you have a guest, but if the guest has a request, the host shouldn't ask the guest! After all, many people don't want others to know about this kind of thing."

"In that case, there's no need to talk about it. The Fourth Young Master has already decided on this batch of goods." You Tanzhi looked like he was refusing to leave.

Sun Ru didn't panic at all, "If your purpose is to sell to the Fourth Young Master, why do you need to be so public? Although there are many people visiting the thief Cao Chu's house, they are far from being outnumbered... Isn't your move just a pretext? Then when Guan Lin, the Fourth Young Master, was giving lectures, he displayed this ordnance and sold it at a high price? We are all foxes for thousands of years, so we should stop pretending, right?"

Sun Ru's sharp words did not give You Tanzhi any room to breathe.

You TanZhi paused, and based on his experience, asked: "The girl is from Jiangnan! Is the person behind the girl the Lord of Soochow?"

Sun Ru's appearance is that of a typical Jiangnan girl...

But underneath her cute and nimble appearance, she is resolute on the inside!

"Your Excellency, it's better not to ask any more questions. The little girl won't tell." Sun Ruyun waved her hand calmly.

"Haha..." You Tanzhi smiled this time. He looked at Sun Ru with interest, and then...sat on a sidecar, "Interesting, how about you tell me, how much do you plan to pay?"

"Then it depends on how much goods you have!"

"Two hundred chariots, one thousand crossbows, over ten thousand crossbow bolts, fewer wooden oxen and stray horses, one hundred chariots!" You Tanzhi said matter-of-factly, without hiding it.

this…

Sun Ru's eyes rolled, she thought for a moment, then stretched out her hand and showed two fingers.

Like quoting a price!

"Twenty thousand grains?" You Tanyi was stunned. He didn't expect that the other party's price was so low... "You woman have no sincerity. Is this a way to beg for such a small amount of money? I don't think... there is no need for us to continue talking. ”

You Tanzhi turned around and planned to leave.

Who would have thought that Sun Ru called to You Tanzhi and looked at her two fingers: "Who told you that this is 20,000 dendrobium?"

At this time, You Tan was startled.

"Two hundred thousand dendrobium?"

In this era, because the currency was depreciating too fast, in addition to gold being used for transactions, more items were exchanged for things, and grain and cloth were the most available hard currencies.

Therefore, You Tan subconsciously associated the other person's fingers with the amount of grain.

However, even so, two hundred thousand dendrobium... is a bit too much. This amount is enough to harvest Jingnan's grain for an entire year.

but…

When You Tanzhi asked in surprise, "Is it really 200,000 dendrobium?"

In response to him, Sun Ru waved her hand gently.

"no!"

"You fool me!"

"How dare you, little girl?" Sun Ru narrowed her eyes slightly, and she briefly revealed the true meaning of these two fingers: "Twice, no matter how much Guan Lin produces tomorrow, I will produce twice as much!"

this…

You Tanzhi's eyes couldn't help but condense.

This offer is indeed very tempting, even more tempting than the illusory two hundred thousand dendrobium!

The moonlight is bright and clear, and You Tanzhi's meaningful gaze is in the backyard...

It was Sun Ru's expectant eyes.

But on the wall in the backyard, a beggar was holding a pen and scribbling something on a piece of crumpled paper.

It was like he recorded everything that happened under the bright moonlight with lines.

…

…

There are many beggars guarding the entrance to the underground wine shop of Baojia Winery.

Seeing the elder Lu Youji of the Eight Pouches, they all saluted and their movements were chaotic. At first glance, they looked like a rabble.

But Lu Youjiao didn't mind either. His expression was sharp and solemn as he strode into the wine cellar.

A beggar lowered his voice and shouted: "Elder Lu is here, Elder Lu is here..."

It seems that he wants to use this voice to remind all the beggars waiting here.

Lu Youjiao sat down. The shelf in front of him was already filled with crumpled papers, with images that looked like "ghost drawings" on them.

A beggar brought him a bowl of water, and Lu Youji drank it all in one gulp.

"Don't be stunned. Mr. Hong Qigong is still waiting for news from us. Come on...if you have anything to say, please tell me quickly!"

As soon as this statement came out...

A beggar took the lead and said: "As soon as the bustle of De Sheng Bridge died down, our prefect Mi Fangmi of Jiangling City sent an invitation, inviting Shi Huolong and You Tanzhi to a banquet. You Tanzhi postponed it, but Shi Huolong went to the banquet. ."

As he spoke, the beggar unfolded a crumpled piece of paper on the table. What was drawn on it was a mess, but... if you look closely, it looked like Mi Fang and Shi Huolong were walking into a brothel and a red house together.

The second beggar continued: "It has been found that a woman sneaked into the 'Changxin' restaurant..."

He also unfolded the crumpled paper. On it was a picture of You Tanzhi running downstairs in a hurry, and the woman standing in front of a wooden cow and a flowing horse, waiting for him.

The third beggar came next. He opened his mouth and said: "Just now, Shi Huolong came out of the Red Hall and bumped into a richly dressed thirty-year-old young man. The young man was very rich...with an apologetic look on his face. He took out a bag of five baht and gave it to Shi Huolong to apologize, and even took Shi Huolong to a wine shop next door, saying he wanted to hold a banquet to apologize."

What the third beggar said happened just now.

Therefore, I submitted it directly before I had time to draw a picture.

--"Obedient…"

Hearing this, Lu You's eyebrows suddenly rose.

He couldn't help but whisper to himself: "Damn it, three waves of people came here in one night!"

Thinking of this, he quickly ordered, "Have you forgotten what Mr. Hong Qigong ordered?"

"No!"

A group of beggars responded in unison.

Lu Youjiao repeated the reminder: "What the old man Hong Qigong said, we brothers must keep up with anyone who tries to contact Shi Huolong and You Tanzhi today, and keep an eye on them day and night... to see what they are doing all day long. What to do here, who to meet, and try every means to find out their true identity."

"I know, I know..."

The beggars agreed and planned to leave.

Lu Youjiao quickly reminded: "Be careful, don't let these people find out... This is the first time our Beggar Clan has done something big, so everyone cheered me up."

Needless to say, these beggars are full of energy...

After joining the Beggar Clan, they were able to eat well and wear warm clothes. They were grateful to "Hong Qigong" from the bottom of their hearts and were waiting to do things for "Hong Qigong"!

It is for this reason that no one dares to slack off in this operation.

But Lu has his feet.

After all the beggars had left, he rolled his eyes, chirped, and murmured:

"Fourth Young Master said that in this way, you can find out the spies of the enemy country? Is it true or false?"

"Are the people drawn in these pictures... all enemy spies?"

Lu Youjiao didn't understand. He scratched his head and simply didn't think about it further. He dusted himself off. The top priority... he had to report this matter to the Fourth Young Master first.

While walking out, Lu Youjiao muttered again and again, "Why...why are there only so many? This is only the first day!"

yes…

He originally thought that no one would contact Shi Huolong and the others privately.

But now it seems...

More than just a connection, they are simply the best of the Gunners!

Hey... Lu Youji is still scratching his head, a little unbelievable...

——"Is there really so many spies in Jiangling City?" 』
