Chapter 1156: Donglai Shuangbi

Chapter 1156: Donglai Shuangbi (Page 1/1)

Yan Jian was full of wine and food, and got off the boat satisfied. Sun Ce still had military affairs to deal with, and sent Zhang Cheng to accompany Yan Jian to see Xu Yue.

Zhang Cheng and Yan Jian have known each other for a long time, and they are close in age, so they can talk about each other. When he was in front of Sun Ce, Zhang Cheng didn't talk much, but when he got off Feilu, he talked more, revealing the liveliness that should be present at this age.

"Brother Mancai, don't be surprised if you eat a closed door later."

Yan Jian was still immersed in excitement and made a joke. "Why, with General Sun's arrangement and you as a companion, will you still eat behind closed doors?"

Zhang Cheng laughed twice. "Half a month ago, the late Taiwei Zhu Gongwei came, heard that Xu Gonghe was in Pingyu, remembered his friendship with his teacher Liu Yuanzhuo (Liu Hong), and wanted to ask Xu Gonghe to meet. General Sun went to invite him personally, but Xu Gonghe was studying a problem, but he didn't see it. ”

The smile on Yan Jin's face suddenly froze. "Really?"

"Of course it's true." Zhang Cheng showed a yearning look. He looked around, moved closer to Yan Ji, and lowered his voice. "Mancai, have you ever heard of Donglai Shuangbi?"

Yan Jian looked dazed and shook his head again and again.

Zhang Cheng laughed, a little proud. "It seems that your ability to work carefully is not good. Let me explain it to you, Donglai Shuangbi refers to two people, one Wen and one Wu, the text is this Xu Yue Xu Gonghe, and Wu is the general Tai Shi Ci Tai Shi Ziyi who sits in Rencheng. They are all from Donglai, and now they are all talents that the general relies on. Tai Shi Ci, you should always know, right? ”

"I know, I know, I heard that he entered Yangzhou with Liu Zhengli and fought with General Sun, but later became a general under General Sun. Xun Youruo...... Oh. Yan Jian suddenly woke up and hurriedly squeaked twice. Tai Shici sits in Rencheng and is a heavy general, this Xu Gonghe can be called with him, which shows that General Sun attaches great importance to talents. ”

"General Sun does attach great importance to talents, and he attaches far more importance than you think." Zhang Cheng's eyes lit up, and he was bright. "You'll find out later. Now that the situation is so urgent, even General Sun himself has to cut expenses, but Xu Gonghe's treatment has not diminished at all. Do you know what his treatment is like? ”

Yan Jin's heart itched. "Zhong Hei, don't sell Guanzi, say it quickly."

Zhang Cheng held up two fingers. "Two thousand stones, plus pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, all the officials gave them, and the two sons entered the county school without spending a penny. More than enough to feed a family by one person. But Xu Gonghe doesn't care, he is dedicated to research, as long as he has paper and pen, he has no time to spend money. ”

"Medium...... Two thousand stones? Yan Jian opened his mouth wide and heard a clear crisp sound.

"Yes, with these two people, Donglai people are honored, and they are superior to others everywhere, which is really enviable. Brother Mancai, you should work hard and win some glory for us Pengcheng people. ”

Yan Jian was moved, but he couldn't say it so bluntly, and hurriedly said, "Zhong Hei, you are too polite. Ling Zun started as a Taishou, who can match this glory? With Lingzun, the people of Pengcheng will not be worse than the people of Donglai. ”

"Not really." Zhang Cheng shook his head and smiled. "General Sun has a lot of respect for his father, this is a fact, but my father is mainly engaged in political affairs, and he has no prestige in the army, so he may not be as good as my brother. I was in charge of the Wood School from my brother, building warships, and improving trebuchets, and I can be regarded as a meritorious person. However, he is a little weaker in arithmetic, and it is not easy to make an article like "Parabola". ”

Zhang Cheng turned his head to look at Yan Zhen. "This matter is waiting for Brother Mancai to take action."

Yan Jian was shocked in his heart. He heard Xun Chen say that the giant trebuchet and the 2,000-stone ship—Liu He's willingness to ask for peace had a lot to do with these two sharp weapons—but he didn't know that these two sharp weapons were built by Zhang Cheng's brother Zhang Fen. But Zhang Fen still can't compare with Xu Yue, so what kind of existence is Xu Yue? Sun Ce said that if he did a solid job of "The Theory of Tides", it would be comparable to "The Theory of Parabola", but he originally thought it was just polite. Hearing Zhang Cheng say this now, it seems that Sun Ce is not joking.

Is this "Parabola" so valuable?

The two of them went ashore as they spoke, got into the carriage, and went straight to Xu Yue's residence. Xu Yue lives in the workshop, which is a small courtyard with a single door, which is very spacious and quiet. But Zhang Cheng said, this is because I brought you here, otherwise you wouldn't even be able to enter the workshop. Xu Yue couldn't see a single soldier in front of him, but he was protected by guards personally arranged by Guo Jia, and even he didn't know how many people there were, and Guo Jia was personally responsible for this matter.

Yan Jian was already numb and didn't say a word.

The two came to the door, Zhang Cheng stepped forward to knock on the door, and a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy came to open the door, it was Xu Yue's eldest son Xu Shu. Xu Shu glanced at them calmly, and when he saw Zhang Cheng, his face was a little more smiling, and he walked out of the door and bowed his hand.

"Senior brother, why are you here?"

Zhang Cheng returned the salute and pointed to Yan Jian beside him. "Bo Yuan, this is my fellow countryman Yan Junmancai, who has just met the general. He made a "Treatise on the Tide", and the general liked it very much, and asked him to come to see Ling Zun, and learn from Ling Zun to complement each other. ”

Xu Shu looked at Yan Jian and blinked. "Can I read it first?"

"Absolutely."

Zhang Cheng said, glaring at Yan Zhen. Yan Jian hurriedly took out the article and presented his name thorn. Xu Shu took the article, glanced at it in the light of the lantern, his eyes flashed, and then he nodded.

"Please wait, and I'll report to my father immediately."

"There's Lauber." Zhang Cheng was very polite. Xu Shu entered the door, closed the door, and hurriedly walked inside. Zhang Cheng smiled at Yan Jian and said, "It seems that there is a play." ”

Yan Jian was silent. He was very surprised when he saw the look in Xu Shu's eyes just now. Xu Shu is so young, can he see the value of this article at a glance? Although this article was written by him himself, he really didn't take this article too seriously, and always thought it was miscellaneous. When he arrived in Pingyu, he was recognized one after another, which caught him off guard.

How can a miscellaneous article that discusses the rise and fall of the tide be so important, at most, as a talking point?

After a while, there was a sound of footsteps in the door, the door opened again, and two people appeared at the door, it was Xu Yue and his son. Xu Yue's gaze swept on Zhang Cheng's face, and quickly showed a smile, before Zhang Cheng could return the salute, Xu Yue had already turned his head to Yan Cheng. He shook the manuscript in his hand.

"Is this "Treatise on the Tide" written by a single step?"

"Exactly."

"Come on in." Xu Yue laughed. "I heard the magpie cry early in the morning, and I didn't see the guests until it was dark, so I thought I heard it wrong. I didn't expect it to be on my feet. Come, come, I have something to ask you. Madame, Madam, there is a distinguished guest arriving, ready to eat, we will talk a little longer. ”

Yan Jian was not mentally prepared, he was pulled by Xu Yue and staggered, went straight through the front yard, came to the hall, and was dragged into the room by Xu Yue. The courtyard was clean and tidy, and the hall was spotless, but this room was messy, full of models, and everywhere paper, some of which were full of words, some of which were full of drawings, and some of which were blank. Yan Jian looked at it and was envious. These papers are all high-grade Nanyang paper, and he is usually reluctant to buy a few if he wants to, but Xu Yue's house is sprinkled everywhere.
