Chapter 35 Ants

As the sun sets, the "Moon-Watching Pavilion" reflected by the afterglow of the setting sun seems to be coated with a layer of golden halo, and the mountains and forests that have been lively for a day have gradually become quiet. Huangfu Jian sat in the pavilion to study "Thirteen Ghost Valley Chapters", and when he saw the exquisiteness, he often made praises, impressed by the wisdom of the ancients.

Not far away from Huangfu Jian, Princess Jieyou, wearing a white robe, stood tall and graceful, and was playing the flute leisurely. The mountain wind blew, lifting up her white skirt, as if a fairy in the world was dancing. The sound of the flute sounded, clear and exciting, rippling in the lonely mountains, as if the spotless essence of nature, allowing you to stay away from the mortal world and be in a fairyland outside the world.

At this moment, a guard came in, and the sound of the flute stopped abruptly. Huangfu Jian looked at the guard and frowned slightly. The guard probably knew that he was a little abnormal, so he said nervously: "Military advisor Jia Xu asked for a meeting."

"Oh! Please come in quickly!" Huangfu Jian was stunned for a moment. If Jia Xu hadn't decided, he wouldn't have come to him at this time.

"See the young master." Jia Xu came in to greet him.

"No gift, sir, please sit down!" Huangfu Jian finished speaking, and said to Princess Jieyou on the side: "It's rare that Mr. I have time today, so I ask someone to make a pot of tea, so I can also taste it."

Jieyou responded and turned around and left.

After a moment, Jieyou slowly stepped in, following two children behind her. The two children were holding various tea sets in their hands, a tea table made of sandalwood, with freshly carved traces on it. It was a new work that was not long before. A delicate and compact copper stove burning with charcoal, a copper pot containing mountain spring water, two small clear jade cups, and an elegant purple clay teapot. These are the best tea sets that Huangfu Jian can get together at present.

Jieyou ordered a little boy to put the sandalwood tea table, jade cup and purple clay teapot on the table in front of Huangfu Jian, and then ordered a little boy to boil the spring water in the pot with a charcoal stove. After the water boiled, he brewed tea with boiling water with his own hands. As soon as the tea was soaked, a fragrance rose. Jieyou brought a cup of fragrant tea to Huangfu Jian and handed it to Jia Xu.

"I'm sorry girl!" Jia Xu didn't dare to be proud and repeatedly claimed thanks.

Jia Xu saw that the soup in the cup was green and bright, and the fragrance was like orchids. He felt refreshed when he smelled it. He took a sip and it was even sweeter and delicious, and aftertaste it was sweet and tasty. He couldn't help but say wondering: "What kind of tea is the young master making? It's so wonderful. When the next cup is in his mouth, he feels the fragrance of his mouth and the spring at his tongue."

"It's nothing magical, it's just the ordinary wild tea on the top of the mountain. I felt bored when I first went up the mountain. It was spring. I saw a few wild tea trees on the top of the mountain. They had just sprouted new buds, so I asked someone to pick them and roast them on charcoal fire. Then I made it. Later, I couldn't find a suitable tea set, so I put it aside. It was only recently that I found this pretty decent tea set and barely used it. The previous few times when the husband came, everyone was together, and Jian didn't ask anyone to serve tea. Today, you and I just happened to teach the husband to comment on the quality of the tea." Huangfu Jian said with a smile.

There are not many people drinking tea in this era, and they drink the kind of mud tea with mixed tastes. It is like the wine of this era, making it difficult to swallow. There are also ginseng and ginger, green onion, salt and other substances in the tea, just like drinking soup. How could there be the new tea roasted by Huangfu Jian according to modern techniques, which is full of color, fragrance and taste.

"The young master is really a god. Jia Xu admires him. This ordinary wild tea master's hand has become such a delicious food." Jia Xu compliments Huangfu Jian.

"It's good if sir, I have some here. I'll take some back later. sir, keep one for my own and one for my master. I guess he'll also like it." Huangfu Jian smiled and continued, "Sir, I guess there must be something important here, right?" Huangfu Jian knew that Jia Xu was also the master of the Three Treasures Hall without any trouble, so he must have something important to discuss with him.

"I am here to congratulate the young master. General Li Kan and General Liang Xing have taken down Wohuling. Yan Kaishan, the chief of Wohuling, brought his son Yan Xing and the remaining soldiers of Wohuling, are now in the valley. According to my subordinates, Yan Kaishan is still a general of the tiger, and has a good reputation, so he can be used."

"Although the general under Yan Kaishan is not old, he has extraordinary martial arts skills. He fought with General Li Kan for more than 30 rounds but failed to decide the winner. He is also a rare general. I also asked the young master to give them generously and comfort them so that they can use them for the pasture. The quality of the remaining soldiers from Wohuling is also quite good, not worse than the soldiers on our pasture. It is a pity to disband these people. My subordinates think they can be kept as used." Jia Xu said.

"What did sir say? Yan Kaishan, the son of the chief of Wohuling, is called Yan Xing, and his general is called Xu Huang? Do you know where they are?" Huangfu Jian was shocked when he heard Xu Huang's name and asked in surprise.

This excitement spoke much faster, which surprised Jia Xu. Why did the young master, who was fighting thousands of people without blinking, look like this?

Xu Huang and Yan Xing were both famous generals in the Three Kingdoms, especially Xu Huang, who was the leader of the five good generals of the Weiying camp and was a rare general. Huangfu Jian did not expect that he would meet these famous generals so soon.

"That's right, Yan Kaishan's son is Yan Xing and Yan Ming. He is thirteen years old. He is from Jincheng, Liangzhou. He has a general who uses a giant axe named Xu Huang and Gongming. He is from Yangxian County, Hedong. The young master also knows them?" Jia Xu asked Huangfu Jian strangely while answering.

"Oh, I don't know them, I just think their names are familiar. You will bring Yan Kaishan and Xu Huang to see me tomorrow, and make a decision after seeing them tomorrow. The army has more troops and the ranch finances cannot bear it!" Huangfu Jian could not say that he knew them in his previous life, so he found an excuse to stammer.

The two sat for a while, and Jia Xu was about to say goodbye. Huangfu Jian smiled and said, "Sir, since you are here, you don't have to rush back. I'm just talking about something with you."

"Young Master, please speak." Jia Xu sat down again.

"We stayed in the ranch all day long, and the news was blocked, and something big happened outside. I wouldn't know here. We were like blind people. If this continues, it would be very unfavorable to the future development of the ranch. So I thought about it for a long time and decided to set up an intelligence agency. I also thought about it, and it was called 'ant'. Ants are everywhere, and they are everywhere. They are the soil for their survival, with strong adaptability and extremely strong vitality, and it is just right to collect intelligence."

After Huangfu Jian finished speaking, he looked at Jia Xu steadily. In his heart, Jia Xu was the best candidate for doing this.

After hearing this, Jia Xu's heart moved, but his brows frowned deeply, without saying a word. Huangfu Jian had only been taking over the Pegasus Ranch for half a year, but the Pegasus Ranch had undergone earth-shaking changes, and it had become a small country in the mountains. This surprised Jia Xu and also had an instinctive panic, and some rumors about Huangfu Jian also emerged.

Huangfu Jian lightly sang the jade cup and looked at Jia Xu in front of him lightly, with no expression on his handsome face.

"Young Master, although my subordinates know that they shouldn't ask, I still want to ask, please forgive me!" Jia Xu thought for a while, as if he had made up his mind and spoke slowly.

"Sir, please speak!" Seeing Jia Xu's face serious, Huangfu Jian smiled indifferently, and he knew in his heart what Jia Xu wanted to ask.

"I just want to know what the young master saw, and where is he going to take the Pegasus Ranch?" After saying this, Jia Xu seemed to have taken off a thousand pounds of burden and sighed with a long sigh.

Huangfu Jian slowly stood up and waved his hand to let the guards outside the pavilion avoid it. He looked south with his hands behind his back and silently looked at the distant sky, as if he had merged into this world. At this time, the sun had already disappeared into the western mountain, and the light was getting darker, but the sky was covered with a layer of haze at some point, and there was silence in the moon pavilion.

After a long time, Huangfu Jian spoke slowly. He said very slowly, almost word by word: "Since grandpa passed away, the gentleman has been guarding me like a father and brother, caring for me, and taking care of me. In fact, I understand that I have long regarded Mr. as a relative in my heart, and I know what Mr. is worried about."

Huangfu Jian walked to the map hanging in the pavilion, pointed to the map hanging on the wall and said slowly: "Sir, this Han Dynasty is spreading to the world, with thousands of miles of beautiful mountains and rivers and mountains, and is as beautiful as a painting! It is a pity that the Han Emperor is in a stupid way, the slandering officials and the officials are fighting to control the government, the powerful families are rising, corrupt officials are imposing excessive taxes, and the people in the world are suffering. The Han Dynasty is already a terminally ill giant. Although it still maintains a false prosperity on the surface, the building will collapse and fall down with a bang!"

"What Jian saw was the blood color of thousands of miles, and it turned into a mountain of dead bones! Although Jian was young, he didn't want to be the dead bones and dead soul. What can I teach me?" Huangfu Jian did not answer Jia Xu directly, but asked Jia Xu in turn.

"Xu also has a deep sense of what the young master is worried about, but only in troubled times, the heroic nature is revealed. The young master should accumulate strength first to protect himself, and then look at the time of change. Xiliang is located in a deserted place, but he can attack Bashu in the west and advance to Chang'an in the east. His geographical location is unique and can be the place where the young master can live." Jia Xu was moved when he saw Huangfu Jian's sincere words, and could not suppress his passion in his heart. Taotao said.

"Okay! Mr. This is exactly what Jian is thinking. Mr. should now understand why Jian is doing! Jian wants to strengthen the Pegasus Ranch as much as possible before this troubled times come, accumulate strength, and observe the changes in the time!"

"But the so-called plan depends on people, and success depends on heaven, and no one can tell the truth about what will happen in the future! But there is no need to say the risks in this. The gentleman can choose to follow the sword and dance with the sky. He can also choose to leave the sword. The sword will not complain. This is what the sword says in his heart!"

Huangfu Jian was so proud that he was three thousand feet tall at this time, his long hair was swinging high, and his thin body suddenly became taller, so he could not look directly at him.

When Jia Xu heard this, his whole body trembled, he fell down and knelt down, and said loudly: "I am willing to follow the young master, and be crushed to pieces, and I will never refuse!"

"Sir, please come up! If the sword is helped by Mr., it will be like a tiger adding wings. It will definitely quell the turbulent times and achieve unparalleled achievements!" Huangfu Jian laughed loudly and was full of heroism.

"The young master has lofty ambitions and his subordinates are not as good as possible. He must do his best to accomplish this." Jia Xu said.

Princess Jieyou, who was standing beside her, covered with a veil, and her expression was not visible, but her eyes looked at Huangfu Jian like a clear spring, which could melt everything.

The two of them sat down again and discussed the establishment of the intelligence system.

Yan Kaishan and Xu Huang originally thought that the Pegasus Ranch were just a larger horse gang, but what they saw along the way broke their cognition. In the control area of ​​the Pegasus Ranch, refugees were seen everywhere, the people lived and worked in peace and orderly, and the villages were in good order. Compared with the Han people who were still in dire straits outside, they did not seem to be doing it by the horse gangs.

When you enter Boluo Valley, you can see the newly built tall and majestic valley city from afar. This surprised them so much that they couldn't even close their mouths. This place was not like a bandit or a place where thieves lived, and they simply entered another world. Who would have thought that among these mountains there was a country hidden in the mountains?

In the city of Gucheng, the city lord's mansion stands tall, and a golden dragon carved from marble in the huge square is about to fly. The surrounding government offices are all in place, and the rules in the city are strict. At night, Yan Kaishan, Xu Huang and his party were arranged to rest in the inns in the city. The luxury here is no less than that of the Han capitals such as Luoyang and Chang'an.

What they saw and heard surprised them even more. There were Qiang people, Hu people, and more Han people. Not only did they live in wealth, but it was even rarer that they all had equal exchanges and no disputes.

With an in-depth understanding of the Pegasus Ranch, Yan Kaishan and Xu Huang were surprised to find that the "Xiliang Law" implemented here is very different from the laws of the Han Dynasty, but it has obvious advantages over the laws of the Han Dynasty.
