Although the guest rooms in Xiangyang's inn are not big, they are OK. They have one living room and two rooms. The outermost is the reception hall. Going inside are two bedrooms, one large and one small. They have all the necessary furniture and so on.
It is fully equipped, and of course the accommodation fee is not cheap.
Fortunately, in addition to the money he brought from home, Fei Qian also had some of the money given by Cui Hou. If it was just to pay for the room, it wouldn't be a problem to pay for it at least year after year.
But a guest room is a guest room after all, and it's okay to stay there temporarily. If you stay there for a long time, you'd better find your own place to stay.
So these days Uncle Fu basically goes out to look at the houses recommended by others.
Anyway, if you want to settle down in Xiangyang, you must first find a suitable place to live. Whether renting or buying, it is at least more cost-effective than staying in an inn for a long time.
It's not that Fei Qian isn't considerate of the old man, it's just that the scar on his head has not yet faded. Although there is nothing wrong with it, Uncle Fu refuses to let Fei Qian go with him to look at houses. He just said that he would wait until he feels good to go with him.
It's not too late to go.
So the most Fei Qian can do is walk around the inn, chat with the shopkeeper, and chat with roadside vendors...
But even so, Fei Qian also got a lot of information about Xiangyang.
Like today, Fei Qian did not go out. Instead, he sat alone in the guest room, took out a pen and paper, and planned to make a summary of the information from the past two days.
Just like what Fei Qian had learned all the way before, although Xiangyang has not yet fallen into the period of competition between the Three Kingdoms, there are still many forces lurking in the dark.
Today's Xiangyang is like a deep pool of water. It looks calm on the surface, but in fact there are countless undercurrents underground and it is extremely fierce.
Fei Qian pondered for a while, then wrote the word Xiangyang, then wrote Nanyang above Xiangyang, and Jiangling below——
I wonder if the land in Xiangyang has been blessed by God. It has abundant water resources and fertile land. Therefore, in this area, from Xiangyang as the center, to Nanyang in the north and Jiangling in the south, basically ordinary farmers can at least mix.
It was precisely because of this that the three Zhang Jiao brothers failed to incite many people in the Xiangyang area during the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
So from this point of view, the Xiangyang area was not damaged much during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and the basic production capacity and material supply were relatively intact.
But it is precisely because this place is quite wealthy that it has produced a unique product - clan thieves.
There are more clan thieves in the south. In the north, because they have been harassed by Xianbei and Qianghu for a long time, this situation is relatively rare. clan thieves are civilians who are equipped with certain weapons and formed by clan relationships or village relationships.
To put it simply, armed organizations are actually private armed groups gathered by local gangsters themselves.
Near Xiangyang City, there are more than fifty clan thieves, large and small!
In this kind of sectarian thieves organization, when you put down your sword, you are a farmer, but when something happens, you pick up your sword and plunder the countryside, you are a bandit.
It seems that people in the army like Zhang Liao are relatively aware of this kind of thing. Thanks to his carefulness, he specially arranged for escort in advance. Otherwise, the ignorant Fei Qian might have gone on the road alone.
"On the road".
Fei Qian felt that he could reach Xiangyang safely, and he really had to thank Zhang Liao for this matter...
But this favor can be dealt with later. What worries Fei Qian the most right now is Jingxiang’s noble clan——
Speaking of the more famous ones, there are the Kuai family, the Cai family, the Pang family, the Fei family, the Ma family, the Xiang family, the Huang family, the Lai family, the Wen family, the Li family, the Xi family... Fei Qian discovered that if all
Keep writing, one piece of paper is not enough...
And these families are intertwined and married to each other, and they are like a dense spider web, shrouding the land of Jingxiang...
These local nobles, plus the nobles who fled south due to the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the north or the later Cao-Yuan Controversy, were like a small pool filled with fish, and there were constantly new ones.
The fish squeeze in...
Fei Qian felt that sorting out this messy relationship between nobles and clans was simply a huge project. It would take only one or two years to think about it, so he could only rely on the experience of later generations to grasp the main contradiction.
, let’s put aside the less important things first...
Fei Qian wrote on the paper and circled the Kuai family, Cai family, and Pang family, then thought about it carefully, and added the words Sima and Zhuge next to it...
Then he wrote Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng.
According to the information currently available, Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng had just been named the governor of Jingzhou. They should have already established connections with the Kuai family and the Cai family, and had mastered and dealt with a group of local clan thieves, so they settled in Xiangyang.
.
However, Nanyang is still in the hands of Yuan Shu, and I heard that the governor of Nanyang is dead now, and the court has no way to send someone immediately. Doesn't this mean that Yuan Shu has a single hand in Nanyang?
Moreover, the group of defeated soldiers at the city gate a few days ago was said to be an army that Liu Biao was going to send to Nanyang. As for what they were doing, Fei Qian guessed that it might be related to Yuan Shu, but after all, he was not the person involved, so it was just a guess.
Yuan Shu is firmly occupying Nanyang in the north, so Liu Biao may not be able to reach out easily...
To the south, haha, there was Huang Zu in Jiangxia, who was also a time-honored prefect. He had governed Jiangxia for many years, and had gained popularity, popularity, and military strength. He was not lacking in everything. He was a tough nut to crack. According to what Fei Qian learned about later generations, he had been in power until
After Huang Zu died, Liu Biao reached out to Jiangxia...
Therefore, it can be said that Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng are still in urgent need of employment. If he goes to Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng now, he should not be ignored by him. It is also very likely that Liu Biao will give him a minor official position. After all, he now has
There are not too many cards that can be used...
But in this case, should I become this official?
There are advantages to doing things properly, and there are advantages to doing things improperly - anyway, there are definitely pros and cons to each.
It’s really hard to make a decision in such a short period of time...
Anyway, the wound on my head is not completely healed yet, and it is not convenient to go see Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng with this plaster on my head. It is better to think carefully before talking...
After all, in this matter, I am not as good as Yuan Shao's family background. If I resign, I can still get bigger and bigger. If I become an official in Xiangyang and are classified into Liu Biao's faction, my future opponents will not only be like wolves and tigers fighting in a den,
Liu Bei also had to face the powerful Cao Cao, who was eyeing him with eagerness, and Sun Quan, who was secretly stabbing behind him...
Just thinking about this makes me feel that the difficulty has been directly upgraded to the max...
Why is it that other people’s time travel is on the toddler version of difficulty? When you go up there, you can punch Nanshan Nursing Home and kick Beihai Kindergarten. But when you get to my place, it is upgraded to the hell level difficulty mode...
Fei Qian expressed his deep resentment, but he should submit the two letters first anyway. It’s also good to pay homage to others’ land first, but he didn’t know when he would be summoned...
