When Zhuge Liang heard his servant's report, he immediately put down his government affairs and came out to welcome him.
"Don't do this! I was scared when I saw you. You were like this when you asked me to supervise the making of those 50,000 knives. At that time, I didn't know your sinister thoughts and almost died from exhaustion.
"
Pu Yuan waved his hand, not giving the current Prime Minister any face.
Zhuge Liang's expression did not change, and his face was still full of smiles, "When guests come from afar, is it wrong to be happy and excited?"
"It would be great if you really treat me as a guest. I'm afraid you already treat me as a coolie in your heart."
Pu Yuan pointed at Zhuge Liang unceremoniously and laughed.
"He who can do it has to work harder!" Zhuge Liang didn't mind. He poured a bowl of water for Pu Yuan himself and said, "You have traveled all over Yizhou in the past three years, have you gained anything?"
Pu Yuan took a sip of water and smiled at Huang Yueying who was sitting beside him and said, "Junior sister, let's see if your husband-in-law regards me as a coolie?"
Huang Yueying pursed her lips and smiled, "Senior brother is determined to search all over the world's mountains and rivers to find rare iron and fine river water, so as to build Mo Xie, the general of the Han Dynasty. How can the things you enjoy doing become a coolie?"
"I shouldn't have asked you." Pu Yuan smiled helplessly and shook his head, "I even forgot that you two are one and the same. I didn't even get a bite of food here, so you two forced me to fight each other. What a disaster.
bitter."
Huang Yueying smiled slightly and said, "Senior brother, if you want to eat delicious food, it will be easy."
"I know a person who once specialized in the art of changing teeth. He said bluntly that if he claimed to be second in the world when it comes to eating, no one would dare to claim to be first. I will take my senior brother to him someday to keep him safe.
Eat to your heart’s content.”
"I won't go to the palace. I was deceived by Kong Ming a few years ago. I went to the palace to meet Liu Bei and had a good meal, but in exchange I worked hard day and night. It's not worth it!"
In Pu Yuan's heart, the best place for this big man to eat is naturally in the palace.
"It's not the palace, it's a village outside the city."
"Oh, doesn't Kong Ming always claim to be indifferent and peaceful? When did you find such a good cook?"
Pu Yuan asked curiously.
"He is not a cook, he is a junior to my younger sister. In my younger sister's letter, I mentioned this person to my senior brother, his surname is Feng."
Huang Yueying explained.
"It turned out to be that Feng Wenhe?"
"Senior brother, please don't talk nonsense. He is not a man of plain words and plain words."
Pu Yuan clicked his tongue and said, "A young man who looks quite handsome is actually ruthless and vicious when it comes to his plans. Is it fair to say that Wenhe has been wronged?"
"Has Yifan seen him?"
Zhuge Liang was thoughtful and heard other meanings from Pu Yuan's words.
"I've seen it before. When I just came from outside the city, I saw someone giving away the second son of the Zhao family. The leader was so generous! I heard the second son of the Zhao family call him brother. If I look closely, he is not the Zhao family.
I’m the boss, so I think it’s very likely that he is the young man that my junior sister mentioned in the letter.”
Back then, Pu Yuan made a sword for Zhao Yun in private, and before leaving, he sent the sword to Zhao's house. Therefore, he had met Zhao Yun's two sons, so Zhao Guang felt that Pu Yuan looked familiar.
However, Zhao Yun did not tell his two sons Pu Yuan’s true identity at that time.
Although Zhao Guang has changed a bit in the past two years, he still vaguely looks like he did back then. In addition, he holds the sword that Pu Yuan personally made in his hand, so he was recognized immediately.
"Feng Mingwen is good at amassing money and likes luxury. Erlang is regarded as a brother by him, so the things he gives away may be more generous. It's not surprising."
Huang Yueying thinks it's normal. Who doesn't know that Feng Mingwen has a lot of good things?
"This cannot be justified by being rich."
Pu Yuan still felt a little distressed when he thought of the armor and swords made of fine iron. "The rare fine iron was used and wasted by that boy! The armor and weapons made of it are really unsightly."
"Rare fine iron?!" Zhuge Liang's peach blossom eyes flashed, "How can that kid have rare fine iron?"
If the word "fine iron" is spoken in other people's mouth, it may be ordinary fine iron, but when it is said in Pu Yuan's mouth, the weight is different, not to mention the word "rare" is added.
At least it is of the same level as the refined iron he used to forge the eight swords three years ago.
"How do I know this?"
Pu Yuan glanced at Zhuge Liang and said curiously, "You are the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty. Isn't that boy working under you? Don't you know?"
I know...
Zhuge Liang was embarrassed and angry.
Pu Yuan's words were like a spear thrust straight into the heart of the Han Prime Minister, making his heart aching.
After Ma Su and Jiang Wan described Nanxiang County, he, the Han prime minister, could no longer imagine what it was like.
All rules were overturned there.
Don't talk about anything else, let's just take the most important food.
If a county with a population of tens of thousands only grows mulberry and hemp and does not grow an acre of grain, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty will directly borrow the head of the county head from that county to use it.
Isn't this the way to create chaos?
But that kid just doesn’t like it!
But even so, I still had to protect it carefully, for fear that the people in that place would be hungry.
Anyway, he just felt that it was very strange there, so strange that it was scary, because there was no place similar to it in the whole world.
Groups of cattle, sheep, and horses are kept in sheds and raised, and I don’t know how they are fed?
Countless kilns are emitting black smoke day and night, as if ghosts from the underworld have been released to wander in the human world.
Even the road is different from other places. Everyone says it is paved with a large piece of flat stone - have you ever seen a road that is dozens or hundreds of miles paved with a single piece of stone?
Everyone who comes to Nanxiang for the first time can't help but be amazed when they see the road paved with artificial stones. Many people even kneel down and call out to the gods.
Not long ago, a certain big clan in Shu who didn't know whether to live or die sent people to assassinate that kid, and then when those few rangers who had never seen the world came to Nanxiang and saw that kind of magical road, their legs immediately became weak.
In the end, he ran away with snot and tears and turned himself in, saying that he was blind and could not recognize the true gods...
Then the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty conveniently stole another aristocratic family from central Shu to finance the southern expedition.
Not to mention that even the children of lowly families can read - note, it is the children, not just the sons.
So now some people are privately saying that Nanxiang is a place where demons dance wildly.
According to the Han Prime Minister's strong desire to control, these places are not completely under his control. How heartbreaking is this?
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't live without her, he would have wanted to go and see what happened.
Huang Yueying naturally knew what her husband was thinking, so she smiled and explained, "This son is the direct disciple of the core of the Zajia Mountain Sect. His knowledge is extremely comprehensive. Who dares to say that he can fully understand what he is doing?"
