Yanbei returned to Youzhou, how could he not bring some small things to Liu Yu. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He didn't just go to Jizhou to fight, as the saying goes, thieves don't go empty, and he, a horse bandit who is used to doing one thing to get the most benefits, will never return empty-handed.

The last unpretentious box was larger than the treasure chests that put gold and jade on hold, and after opening it, the contents were not bright, Yan Bei reached in and took out a copper furnace with a large head and six lamps inlaid with bronze and silver. With a smile on his face, he placed it on the bluestone case of drinking, and said to Liu Yu: "You can take a look, but you still like it." ”

Liu Yu is a person who has seen the world in Luoyang, and he has seen all the best things. At this time, it was clear at a glance that the value of these two things was not expensive, at least it was much cheaper than the few items full of sect gold and jade that Yan Bei had opened before.

The copper stove is carved with an eight-sided beast head, and the handle is carved to make a crane head with a thin neck to connect the bottom of the abdomen, and Liu Yu knows that his abdomen is hollow when he starts with a single hand, and the hollow hearth in the middle can be baked for warmth, and the bottom of the abdomen can store water. The smoke from the firewood in the middle circulates from the handle of the crane's neck to the water in the abdomen, and when the smoke bubbles come out again, there is no longer much choking smell...... Liu Yu had seen similar playthings when he visited friends in Luoyang, but it was far more elaborate than this one.

Gently knocking the ring on the beast's head, Liu Yu asked with a smile: "Why did you get such a thing back from Jizhou, and it was still in such a big box." ”

"Hey, these two pieces were forcibly seized by subordinates, don't be in a hurry to listen to me first." Yanbei sat on the stump and sat on the couch, first filled Liu Yu's wine bottle with sake, and then filled a bottle for himself, drank it in small sips and smacked his mouth, and then pointed to the beast head copper furnace and said: "My subordinates just went to Jizhou, and there were hungry people who came to vote when they were stationed on the banks of Hengshui, because there was not much food for the soldiers, and they could not raise tens of thousands of hungry people in vain. ”

These words dispelled the jealousy in Liu Yu's heart, and when he heard Yanbei's solution, he couldn't help but bow slightly, and said in his heart: It turns out that his extra soldiers and horses came from this way. immediately listened attentively, waiting for Yanbei to tell the ins and outs of this copper furnace, and what kind of trick it was.

But later his subordinates found that those young and strong people were weak because of long-term hunger, coupled with the lack of tactics, even if they were sneak attacks, there were more people killed than Montenegro, and they were unable to feed more hungry people. You also know that Yan was also born a poor slave, he was starved and poor, and now he is a little rich, but he can't see others starving and being poor. Yan Beibi pointed out his finger and said: "But you can't use military rations to supply so many people, so you have to talk to the big households in the county, hoping to give them a small amount of military rations, and open a warehouse to release grain through their mouths, barely hanging the lives of the hungry people, that is, to avoid the hungry people from robbing the soldiers of the food, the hungry soldiers have no fighting spirit, and they can barely survive." ”

Liu Yu's eyes lit up, although he didn't know about military affairs, he knew that the more hungry the people, the more they couldn't open a warehouse to release grain. If the hungry people become dependent on the rations of the soldiers, they will not care whether your soldiers want to fight or not, and those who have been hungry will never want to go hungry again. He immediately approved: "The law of double perfection, great goodness!" ”

"But this white has given the big families in the township a good reputation, and Yan is a little unhappy in his heart." Yan Bei raised his chin slightly, pointed to the beast head crane neck copper furnace with a successful look and said with a smile: "There is a local family surnamed Xu, who belongs to the contemptible people, I have never seen such a clever object, and he has been playing with this since he sat in front of his family, and in the end he really had no choice but to give it to Zaixia...... I took the bronze and silver lamp in my hand, and the host didn't say anything. ”

"You, take your good name and don't exchange these two things with the master's family." Liu Yu couldn't help laughing, and said with a smile: "If you are cunning and robbing, I'm afraid that there will be no robbery in the world!" ”

"Hey, I was just angry at the time, why should I give them a good reputation!" Yan Bei blamed himself, and then said: "When I saw this, I just thought that it was almost winter, and I didn't see a stove in Liugong's house, so I brought it back." There is also this lamp, the copper lamp on the bookcase in the hall I saw it rusty last time, just in time to change. ”

Liu Yu smiled, thinking that if it was just these two things, it didn't matter if he accepted them, in the end, Yanbei, a subordinate, still remembered himself when he was fighting abroad.

Man is better than man! is also a counterinsurgency general who is in command of the army, look at Yanbei and then look at Gongsun Zhan!

Don't say anything else at once, at least Liu Yu's little jealousy of Yanbei's too many soldiers and horses disappeared quietly without a trace.

However, Yan Bei didn't finish speaking, he ordered someone to carry the box over, first picked up a gorgeous and crystal clear water-colored jade jue and pinched it in his hand, and then pointed to the books piled up in the box, leather scrolls, and even a small Ding and said: "These books are also obtained by subordinates in Jizhou, and their subordinates have not read many books, so they will collect these, you take a look first, there are many unique books in them, and you can leave them if you haven't read them, and send someone to copy a copy to your subordinates...... By the way, you have explained everything to your subordinates today. Brother Zhen and I have a kindness, this time into Jizhou to bring back his coffin, in a few days to be buried in Liaodong, then the subordinates will mourn for the brother for three months, I am afraid that it will be too late to go back. ”

"You're going to mourn for a friend?" Liu Yu was a little surprised, in his understanding, most of these generals were usually soldiers who refused to accept the mourning. But after thinking about it, I also felt that Yanbei numerology was a good thing, and then said: "It's okay, then I'll explain it today, let's put these books here first, and after a few days, I'll send someone to send it to you, and the old man still has some books here, but he sent someone with you." ”

"Thank you Liu Gong!" Saying that, Yan Bei flipped his palm, revealing the jade jue as white as mutton fat and offering it to Liu Yu, seeing that Liu Yu was about to speak, he hurriedly said: "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, this waist match also has a great background." ”

Yan Bei placed Yu Jue on top of the stone case, took the wine bottle and drank it all, pointed at Yu Jue and said: "This is also the reason why Yan wants to take all the states and counties in Kanto away and let Liu Gong govern!" Do you know what happened to your subordinates when they first went to Jizhou? ”

"Messy, no matter how messy it is, you can't rob other people's jade jue." As soon as Liu Yu heard Yanbei's words, he thought about him again. In fact, it's no wonder that Liu Yu, no matter how Yanbei looks at it, he is definitely a person who can do that kind of thing to rob people's property, and this piece of jade Jue is too precious, Liu Yu asked eagerly: "You didn't harm people's lives, did you?" ”

Yan Bei shook his head, frowned and said to Liu Yu: "This doesn't need to be robbed at all, when I first entered Puyin, the county order was hungry and thin, speaking of which, the county order was still the county official appointed by Yan when he was in chaos." He took this piece of jade and stuffed it into my hand, wanting to eat some food with me. ”

Liu Yu secretly calculated, such a piece of beautiful jade, put in Luoyang a few years ago, it would cost ten gold, even if the war was cheap, how much would it have to be exchanged for food?

Then he asked tentatively, "Fifty stones?" ”

"Fifty liters, this piece of home can be traced back to the heirloom waist of Emperor Xiaoxuan of the Han Dynasty, and the price is fifty liters of corn." Yan Bei shook his head again, raised two fingers and said: "He said that his son was killed by the rebels, and the youngest daughter was starving to death, counting on rice porridge to save her life, and begged me to give him ten liters of rice." There were only five people left in his family, so I left him five stones of grain...... Let the corn that they hold up to the field grow. ”

Liu Yu secretly smacked his tongue, such a piece of jade jue worth ten gold was sold for five stone rice. I even wanted to exchange it for one stone of rice.

How has the price of grain in Jizhou swelled?

"His subordinates worked as merchants, but also became bandits, and later participated in the rebellion. Accustomed to judging the battle situation according to the local grain price, you know that in Zhongshan Wuji, last spring, the most expensive polished rice was 400 yuan a stone; And this time, Yan occupied Wuji, and the cheapest corn was 8,600 yuan for one stone! ”

Liu Yu stared at Yanbei, this autumn Youzhou Year Gu is abundant, and Gu Yishi is worth one hundred and sixty yuan...... Corn and grain are at the same price, and Jizhou is 8,600 yuan, how can this be more than expansion?

This gap made Liu Yu speechless, and his eyes looked at Yu Jue, who was placed in the stone case in Yanbei, in a daze.

As Yanbei said, this is not just a waist match...... It's really not just a lump waist.

"Liu Gongren is upright, and he has the ability to create and live people, and the dilapidated Youzhou has the appearance it has in your hands, and his subordinates admire you. But Liu Gong, the world is not a peaceful season at the moment, but it is an eventful season. In the imperial court, Dong Zhuo drove the tiger and wolf to control the government; Outside, the Yuan clan occupied the county and did not cultivate the benevolent government, recruiting troops; Then there are generals and princes from all walks of life, who are ready to move; The world has become a scene of cannibalism by beasts! ”

"Although the people of Youzhou are happy, the current situation has to be prepared for danger in times of peace. At present, the influx of refugees from all over the country into Youzhou is afraid that there are no less than a million people, you educate the people to tax agriculture and mulberry, which is a great good act, but you obey the law of others may not be so, I have heard that gentlemen can be deceived in the way, we can not be located in the east to do the success or failure of the Central Plains. Yan Bei clenched his fists tightly on the desk, "Although Yuan's reputation among scholars is high, it is far inferior to Liu Gong at the beginning. If Liu Gong does the majesty of the Great Sima and sits in the Quartet of Heshuo, even Yuan Benchu's generation will not dare to act rashly. ”

"Do you want the old man to raise troops to recruit Dong Zhuo?" Liu Yu shook his head slowly, "The imperial court has not been bad to that extent, and it is not something that courtiers should do to privately exercise military power. ”

"Recruiting Dong Zhuo? No, the emperor is still in Dong Zhuo's hands, what you need is not to recruit him, but just using benevolence and virtue will not be able to influence him, so you still need some troops. Yan Bei said to Liu Yu with blazing eyes: "As for the military, you don't have to worry about it at all. If you spread the word to the world, drink and order the princes not to be in trouble...... The matter of military strength is borne by one force. ”

Yan Bei held the stone case in his hand and then clenched his fists and said: "With 20,000 subordinate generals, you can go straight down to Yecheng and sweep the Bohai Sea, and cross the south of the big river to Pingchuan." I am inferior to others in terms of prestige, and who can stop me in terms of military affairs? Since Liu Gong forcibly took Hebei, Yan, Qing, Xu, and Henan, and connected the six states in parallel, deterred the northwest and forced Dong Zhuo to withdraw from the army and return to the emperor's world, and control the sea and Qingping, Liu Gong can also contribute to the immortal honor of all generations! ”
