After Solu Shen wrote these things, he sent them in duplicate, one to Qu Jiang's side, and one to keep for himself to take back to Sishang.

Soon after this incident, the Propaganda Department here finally took action, gave an explanation, and quickly organized various groups to convey and discuss.

Soon after, Solushen took those who had returned from the west, drove a carriage full of books, together with a group of young men who had been transferred to Sishang, including Ma Milk, and the captives who had bitten out Que and Jun, and returned to Sishang via Handan.

Shu prisoner Mi stayed in Takayanagi.,Become the commander of a company of foot knights.,The recruits who were added in the new year also began to officially enter the training.,Basically, every day to grasp the training.,Sometimes I can hear some teams returning from the grassland talking about my sister's affairs over there.。

It seemed like business as usual, except that the training was more rigorous, and soon a team of engineers came to Takayanagi from the south, where they began to build and dig walls, bury gunpowder, and so on.

The new young officers who had arrived from Sishang in the new year also arrived soon after to report and began to serve as some junior officers such as Sima Chang.

These seemingly ordinary things gradually became unusual, and the Xuanyi Department began to publicize some things that had nothing to do with the grassland, especially rumors such as Que and Jun's involvement in the smuggling of contraband, and the relationship between Que and Jun and Gongzi's dynasty, which began to spread uncontrollably in Takayanagi.

…………

Two months later, Suo Lushen and others have traveled to the vicinity of Juluze in Zhao State, at this time Daze still exists, has not dried up, extremely vast, abundant water and grass, is one of the nine Ze in the world at this time.

This is exactly where Tang Yao gave way to Shun, Xia Yu Shujiu River, and divided the old ruins of Kyushu. Near Zhangshui, Fushui, Zhushui, Xiangshui, Yushui, Huishui, Lishui, Lushui, Lushui, Jiushui converge here.

In the vast smoke of the waves, a vast village community is located on the rich land near Daze, which is a post station for the Mo family to transport people, horses, and commodities from Sishang.

Suo Lushen returned south this time, taking the same path that the Mo family usually used to transfer horses, and from the place close to the Zhongshan Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom, which had been destroyed but were still chaotic, there was a secret path with a resting point every hundred miles.

After arriving at Julu, you can reach Handan to the west, cross the river to the south, pass through Qi to Heze, and then follow Heshui and Sishang from Heze.

The Mohists operated in a semi-public capacity along the route, organizing the cultivation and purchase of grain as fodder for the horses along the way, thus trading horses from the north and tea and silk from the south.

This trade route is open, but most of them are places where the three do not care, the countries have basically not completed the law change, the degree of centralization is very low, and many things can be solved by having a good relationship with the nobles of the fiefdom.

Juluze is a good place, it is the Mo family's transfer station for horses from Zhao State, and the business here is also very good, and the nearby villages have planted a lot of food for horses, and can transfer 2,000 horses every year.

Suo Lushen did not stop here, but quickly turned to Handan, about to detonate a major event that was likely to affect Zhao, Wei, Han, Qi and other Central Plains countries.

Sitting in the carriage, Suo Lushen was not thinking about the possible events of Zhao Guo, but was reading a copy of the "Book of Ink" published a year after Mozi's death, and when he read an interesting story, he couldn't help laughing.

It said: Zi Mozi traveled south to make a guard, and there were a lot of books in Guanzhong. Xian Tangzi was surprised when he saw it, and said: "My master taught the prince to say: 'It's just a straight twist.'" 'This Master has many books, why not?' Zi Mozi said: The things that return to the same place, those who believe in error. However, the people did not listen to it, and there were many books. If the heart is too far in the present, the number is against the subtlety. The things that return to the same place, since they know their essentials, are not taught to be written. And what's the blame for the son?

When Suo Lushen saw these words, he looked at the books beside him, and couldn't help but think of what the master and Zi Mozi looked like when they traveled together.

At that time, there was no paper, only bamboo slips and wooden slips, and Zi Mozi had four carts of books at that time.

But those books, which have now become paper compilations, are only a few thin volumes, and the four carts of books that I have brought back now would have to have been four hundred or even a thousand carts if they had been placed in the era of the existence of the wooden tablets.

Suo Lu Shen thought to himself, Zi Mozi has passed away, and the right words have been realized in the end. Now Zi Mozi has walked into the grass silk, incarnated into thousands, and now the number of disciples has far exceeded the three thousand of Zhong Ni, and the Mo family is already the first in the world, and Zi Mozi will also be pleased.

I also thought, if there is no paper now, how many bamboo slips will I have to copy these books that I brought back from the far west? How many people do you need to carry it?

Thinking of this interesting thing, Suo Lushen was in a much better mood, and continued to look at the "Book of Ink" compiled by the appropriate people, and pondered the dialogue between Mozi and Tangzi.

When Gong Shang passed away, Suo Lu Shen had not yet joined the Mo family, but he already knew the name of Gong Shang.

It is a character who can make Mozi think that "the things that belong together, know what they want, and there is no need to read anymore". This little story is about Xian Tangzi asking Mozi, saying Mr. You told the public at the beginning that books are just used to measure right and wrong, why do you still read so many books? Mozi told Xian Tangzi that the public has ever had such a person, and his heart has reached a subtle insight into things. For the things in the world that have different paths and the same destination, we already know what is necessary to be reasonable, so there is no need for book education.

Solushen picked up the pen, pondered the story, and wrote in a book of annotations: "The things that return together know their purpose...... What is this? ”

"For example, if the hook has three strands, four strings and five, it should be the square of the hook plus the square of the strands, which is equal to the square of the string. The books mentioned by Zi Mozi are such as Pythagorean three, four, five, sixty, eighty, eighty, eighty, and so on. And the want is the origin of it, so the things that the world has the same end, as long as you know what you want, you can solve it, and you don't need to look at the books listed. This is an explanation. ”

"The other way is the way it is said, and the book is the conclusion. In other words, it is the reasoning and knowledge that Zi Mozi said. For example, in the wheat field planted in Pei County that year, the sunshine, rain, temperature, wheat seeds, and land were all the same, but only manure was applied or not, which was a kind of one. In addition, as Zi Mozi said, the color outside the window is the same as the color inside the window, and knowing the color outside the window can deduce the color inside the window......"

"It's just that although the method is known, the conclusion is reached by the efforts of the sages. Unless you have memorized all of them, you must read them. Otherwise, even if you know the method, the world is like a white horse, and you can't deduce it before you die......"

This is the meaning of what we call "what we want to be, what we want to be". The connotation of analogy cannot be ignored. ”

"When it comes to the art of reasoning, the world is the same. For example, in the far west, I met a man named Democritus, who said that all things are made of atoms, but someone asked, "If a thing is uniform and contains the same atoms of length, then if it forms a rectangular triangle with one on each side, what is the number of atoms on the hypotenuse?" If this number exists but does not make sense, then are the atoms so tight that they can be finally divided? If there are two atoms, how many are there? This does not prove that the idea of the atom that this person said is incorrect, but only that some of his thoughts cannot solve this doubt, and it needs to be corrected, because according to his thinking at this time, there will be a fallacy in reasoning. ”

When Suo Lushen wrote this, he couldn't help but think that now in Sishang, he is basically the next giant, and he thinks what he has come up with in the past few years? Did his two masters really go to the Far West?

In reverie, the carriage suddenly stopped, and the grandmother rode out of the carriage and said, "Someone is in front and asks if we are our ......."

Suo Lushen smiled: "Go and ask, it should be the person who Gongzi Zhang came to greet us." ”

Before the convoy, more than 100 people rode horses and sent people to inquire from afar to greet them.

Previously, Suo Lushen had already sent someone to inform the people on Gongzizhang's side, just to attract Gongzizhang to send someone to greet him.

These more than 100 people were sent by Gongzizhang to welcome them here, just to show Gongzizhang's attitude and win the support of the Mo family as an ally.

Among the more than 100 people, there are many nobles of the Zhao Kingdom, and there are also some ink people with special secret identities.

No matter what the identity is, since Gongzizhang has an order, then this time he must make a full gesture to greet him. Moreover, now that the Mo family is thriving in Sishang, it is already a force that cannot be ignored in the world's disputes, and even a barbarian country like Yue Guo was able to dominate the country back then, and strength can sometimes bring respect.

These people were respectful, nominally to welcome Solushen who had returned from tens of thousands of miles away, which was also a big deal......

Especially for Zhao Guo, this is a big deal.

Because many years ago, the fake "The Biography of Mu Tianzi" has been spread all over the world and has become the official version of "The Biography of Mu Tianzi". This is the story of Li Ghost who killed Li Kui when Li Kui was a child and changed his name to Li Kui, so this is the only official "The Legend of Mu Tianzi".

The one who drove for Mu Tianzi was the father.

The father is the ancestor of the Zhao State.

The father and Mu Tianzi went to the country of the Queen Mother of the West.

Solushen said that he really went to the land of the Queen Mother of the West, and returned from there.

Suo Lushen said that he really saw the tall pyramid mausoleum, the sphinx monster that stopped Mu Tianzi back then, and the sphinx monster that asked four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening, and also saw the nobles there also driving and racing, thinking that the legacy of the father was cloudy.

Among Mu Tianzi's eight horses, there is a famous horse Chiji, and Suo Lushen did let people return from the Western Wasteland seven years ago, and sent back a few high-quality blood-colored horses.

The book "The Biography of Mu Tianzi" is very popular in Qin and Zhao, after all, it records the story of their ancestors, and it is glorious to say, especially Suo Lu Shen proves that there is really such a country, which makes the credit of the father more significant.

Of course, Gongzizhang would not send someone to greet Suo Lushen and the others just because of this incident.

Because before the death of Zhao Liehou and Zhao Ji, he knew that there were disputes in the world, and if Zhao Guoxin wanted to gain a foothold, the people would definitely support his younger brother. As a son, Zhao Zhang, who was young at that time, Zhao Ji took Handan as Zhao Zhang's fief, so that Zhao Zhang still had a certain amount of power, and once he had the support of the nobles, he could ascend to the throne.

And Handan, there is iron ore.

The Mo family opened a mine in Handan, Handan has become the iron-smelting center of Zhao in recent years, and it is also a place where major merchants gather, although it is not the capital at this time, but it has become a new big city in Zhao.
