Chapter 101 99. Zhuge Liang: Asked by Liang’s thirteen-year-old friend (please subscribe for a monthly ticket)

Seeing the three old gentlemen in the courtyard, Zhuge Liang bowed slightly and saluted, "Liang, I have met Mr. Pang De. These two..."

"Huang Chengyan, Sima Decao." Pang Degong pointed to the two people on the left and right.

"Liang, I have seen these two gentlemen." Zhuge Liang was surprised, and then he was delighted. These...are two famous gentlemen again.

"You are polite, little friend." Huang Chengyan saw that the young man in front of him was eight feet tall, handsome and had the air of an immortal. Although he was dressed in coarse linen clothes, his eyes were bright and he looked very Zhou Zheng.

According to the saying that his daughter should be good-looking, Huang Chengyan touched his beard and commented in his heart that he was satisfied.

"Little friend, you are polite." Next to him, Sima Hui also smiled calmly.

"Three gentlemen, please come in. The thatched cottage is simple, so I hope you won't be offended." Zhuge Liang smiled, then led the three of them into the main hall, and ordered Zhuge Jun to make tea.

"There are not many young people who can live in poverty and live in peace." Sima Hui said with a smile, "Three of us don't care about this either."

"It's Liang who is rude." Zhuge Liang said politely, and then looked at Mr. Pang De, "I don't know if Mr. Pang is here this time..."

"The north was not at peace, so Chengyan and I took De Cao and came to Xiangyang to live for a while." Pang Degong explained, "I happened to talk about young talents and thought that Longzhong is only half a day's journey from Xiangyang. The two of them

I just wanted to come and see Kong Ming."

"Liang, I'm really ashamed of myself." Upon hearing this, Zhuge Liang said immediately and looked at Huang Chengyan, who must be A Chu's father. Sure enough, there was a slight similarity between the two people's facial features.

Then he thought of the letter that he had not yet replied to, and said, "I am not good enough for junior students. I happened to be asked a question today, and I haven't figured out how to answer it yet."

"Oh?" Pang Degong became curious. The fact that the young man in front of them couldn't answer the question showed that he had some skills. "What's the question?"

"I'm also curious."

"Please give me your words, little friend."

"Then, Liang was offended. This question was asked by Liang's friend, and what he said was,

What if the common people can live in peace, the roads are not closed, the houses are not closed, the things are not picked up at night, the barns are full and the people know the etiquette?"

The other three people were stunned, this proposition was a bit too broad.

Huang Chengyan thought for a moment, then smiled, "Don't Kong Ming see that Uncle Xi is a good caregiver for the elderly?"

"But among the princes today, who can be called Xibo?" Zhuge Liang asked, "Cao, Yuan Hu? Sun, Liu Hu?"

Pang Degong and Sima Hui immediately shook their heads helplessly. Yes, the most powerful princes at present cannot be called Xibo.

"We may not have Uncle Xi now, but there will definitely be one in the future." Huang Chengyan stroked his beard and replied with a smile, "Isn't the future in the hands of young people like my little friend?"

"What you said is absolutely true. This question was asked by Liang's thirteen-year-old friend." Zhuge Liang then looked at Huang Chengyan and smiled.

Huang Chengyan:...Thirteen years old?

He is now extremely sensitive to the age of thirteen.

First, his daughter was just thirteen this year, and then someone went to the emperor and cried, and his daughter became the county king, with three thousand households in the city, and the princess Yi Tong.

Second, his daughter’s fake identity is Huang Chu, who is also thirteen this year and is serving as an official under Liu Biao’s account!

He wanted to scold Liu Biao: You have no one left under you? You want A Chu to work for you? Why don't you, uncle, have any shame?

But after he calmed down and visited Liu Biao alone, he finally found out the matter... This was really what his daughter wanted to do!

"Your friend...whose name is he?" Huang Chengyan said with a cold face.

"She said, I will learn from you, Duke Chengyan." Zhuge Liang replied with a smile.

Huang Chengyan: ...very good, very good, she is his daughter.

"So it's Ah Chu." Huang Chengyan had to continue to smile, "When did he come to Longzhong?"

"A few months ago, Achu went to Nanyang to lobby various aristocratic families for the Xiangyang Academy. On his way back, because it was getting late, he happened to stop here for a day." Zhuge Liang explained.

"However, according to what A Chu said, she returned to Mianyang a few days ago. No, Chu An, her clan sister happened to get a fiefdom in a county. She was worried about what to do, so she wrote to me to discuss it."

On the side, Pang Degong saw his old friend. He had already felt a little anger from his old friend, just like when his old friend went to find the Jingzhou Shepherd.

"So, the question just now was asked for... Chu'an County?" Sima Hui interjected.

"Exactly."

“If it were a county, it would still need to have enough land for the people to have their own fields and for their women to raise their mulberry trees.

Then spread the teachings widely, enforce strict laws and regulations, and perhaps be able to learn etiquette.

But if we really want to ensure that we don’t pick up any items on the road or close our doors at night, we can only do it by supplementing the legal punishment based on the previous steps.” Huang Chengyan then answered.

After thinking about it, I realized that my daughter just got this fief, so she just wanted to get something for it.

However, with my daughter's skills, she should be able to handle matters in the county.

Why ask such an unknown young man?

"What you said is absolutely true. Liang thinks so too, but he feels that it is too general."

Huang Chengyan looked at Zhuge Liang, "How can one person know everything in the world? You should know people and make good use of them."

"Sir, that's what you said." Zhuge Liang then felt much more relaxed.

Yes, he is a bit obsessed. Even if he knows a lot of things, is it possible that he can still do it all by himself?

Seeing this, Huang Chengyan said nothing more, "How is Chu An's current situation...?"

"It is said that the rice planted by transplanting method has matured this year, and the yield per mu is four and a half stones."

"Four and a half stones?" Mr. Pang De and Sima Hui were both shocked, "Is this a good harvest this year?"

Huang Chengyan, on the other hand, did not have too many surprises. A Chu had told him that this planting method would increase the yield per mu, so he showed a smug smile on his face, "There will be no lies. A Chu also predicted it."

"hiss……"

"Therefore, if this method is promoted, we should be able to achieve sufficient supplies." Zhuge Liang smiled, "But the problem today may not be this method, but that the people have no land."

All three agreed.

Huang Chengyan was thinking about taking the exam.

If my daughter writes a letter to ask about such a young man, it means that this person has been approved by my daughter.

Therefore, he also wanted to see why this young man was recognized by his daughter. He couldn't believe it was because he was good-looking.

Thinking of this, Huang Chengyan felt helpless in his heart. If it was Ah Chu... it was really possible.

"Please give me a try, little friend."

…

In August, the lively Autumn Society begins in Huangjiazhuangzi.

However, Huang Yueying took Gan Ning, a small number of guards, and 200,000 pieces of Chu paper to Xiangyang.

After several months of precipitation, Chu Paper's output is now somewhat excessive.

But Huang Yueying still did not stop the third shift, because... there is still printing to be promoted next year. Once paper books come out, they will definitely become the new favorite of readers.

Therefore, when she went to Xiangyang this time, she also brought some printed books with her to give to Wang Can as a gift.

After all, she even made a trip to Soochow on her behalf, and spread the word about Soochow's desire to seize the opportunity to make Chu paper, which I guess... made Sun Bofu quite angry.
