Duan Zan trained according to the rules and training manual set by Xia Hongsheng, so Xia Hongsheng had leisure and took the opportunity to do his own things.

Taishi was outside, Xia Hongsheng asked Qi Yong to wait outside, and then walked in by himself. Looking left and right, I saw someone sitting on the desk, muttering to himself, not knowing what he was writing. I looked left and right, but I didn't see a few people, so I walked over and said to the person, "This lord, excuse ......."

"Don't be noisy! Don't be noisy! The man wrote hard, didn't raise his head to speak, and still kept writing and drawing.

Xia Hongsheng was curious, so he stopped talking and leaned over to look over.

looked down a few times, and then looked to the side, and saw that a book was opened, Xia Hongsheng took a look, but saw that the sentences on it were quite familiar, so he directly reached out and took the book, but it was a copy of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", and on the page that was opened, it happened to be a math problem that Xia Hongsheng had seen. It's not that Xia Hongsheng is good at mathematics, just because this math problem is very famous in history, that is, the problem of "rice grains". Originally, Xia Hongsheng didn't know about this topic, but he saw it on the exam paper once, so he had an impression.

"Huh? This brother ...... "That person was suddenly taken away from the book, and then he finally reacted, stood up and looked at Xia Hongsheng a little impatiently: "Hurry up and return the book to me, a certain family is at a critical juncture!" ”

Xia Hongsheng handed him back the book and said: "The problem of rice grains is not difficult, can you calculate it?" ”

"Oh?" When the person who took the book and was about to sit down heard this, he immediately stood up again, looked at Xia Hongsheng, and then hugged his fists and asked, "In the next ...... Kindness?! ”

The man was halfway through speaking, but he suddenly stopped, as if he had discovered something incredible, he suddenly stepped forward, approached Xia Hongsheng and stared at Xia Hongsheng directly.

Xia Hongsheng was taken aback, and hurriedly leaned back, what's the situation, why is this person babbling?!

"Hiss......" saw the man suddenly step back again, and gasped, the expression on his face looked a little unbelievable and a little confused.

"How?" Xia Hongsheng was baffled by his chattering appearance.

"Oh, that's rude." That person seemed to have just reacted, saluted, and said, "In the Lower Taishi Bureau, Shilang Li Chunfeng, Your Excellency is ......"

Xia Hongsheng's eyes widened, as if he had discovered something incredible, just like the performance of that person just now.

But soon, Xia Hongsheng returned to normal, after all, even the living Li Lao Er had seen it, and there was nothing to be surprised about such a living god.

So Xia Hongsheng returned a salute: "Xia Hongsheng is in the next." ”

"It turned out to be Lord Xia!" Li Chunfeng bowed and saluted: "I don't know if Lord Xia came to the Taishi Bureau, what are you doing?" ”

"Oh, I'm here for private matters......" Xia Hongsheng said.

But seeing that Li Chunfeng showed a knowing smile on his face, he said with a smile: "Lord Xia is here to ask about the housewarming?" It is also just right, three days later, it will be an auspicious time in the morning, and Lord Xia will be able to do housewarming at that time. In the next place, I congratulated and Xia Daren for the joy of housewarming. ”

Xia Hongsheng was stunned again when he heard this, could he really have such ability? !

"Hehe, but it was said by Li Daochang, and he was indeed preparing to move down." Xia Hongsheng arched his hand to Li Chunfeng and said, "Thank you Daochang Li, and please appreciate Daochang Li at that time!" ”

When you meet such a powerful person who is like a legend, how can you not be strong!

But seeing Li Chunfeng, he was stunned again: "How does Lord Xia know that he is a Taoist priest?" ”

Xia Hongsheng grinned, I not only know that you are a Taoist priest, but also know many things about you, saying it scares you to death! Didn't you count it back, do it yourself! Xia Hongsheng smiled and said: "The rice grains just now, Li Daochang can compare the number of grains in his hand with the rice grain technique, or he can get a ratio, according to this ratio, multiply the rice in the whole warehouse, and you can get about a few stones of grains in the warehouse." ”

"Oh?" Li Chunfeng's eyes lit up, and he immediately turned around and returned to the back of the case, leaned over and continued to calculate, and soon, he calculated it, and walked over with the piece of paper very happily, and asked, "Lord Xia is also interested in this arithmetic?" ”

"It's not interesting, I just know that the way of arithmetic is of great use, but it's not as good as Daoist Li." Xia Hongsheng said this sincerely, in addition to being a magic stick, Li Chunfeng is also a very famous mathematician in history who has made great contributions to mathematics.

"Lord Xia has solved the problem of "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" in an instant!" Li Chunfeng took the paper in his hand and said, "I still want to discuss the way of arithmetic with Lord Xia." ”

As soon as Xia Hongsheng heard this, he quickly fled. He was a liberal arts student in his later life, very biased, and he knew the simplest of mathematics, which was too difficult for him. He said a few words casually, and then found an excuse and left the Taishi Museum in a hurry.

went out and called Qi Yong, and the two rode to Jingyang County together, Xia Hongsheng's horseback riding skills have improved during this time, and can meet daily use, but it is only to meet daily use, compared to Li Yexu and others who can come to Thomas on the horse, it is still more than a star and a half.

This is not the first time Xia Hongsheng has gone to his fiefdom, the last time he went, he wanted to see what his house had been built, and this time, he wanted to see the finished product.

Xia Hongsheng's ninth-class founding county male, with 300 households, that is to say, around Xia Hongsheng's Zhuangzi, there are 300 households that are regarded as farmers in his Zhuangzi, and the households that belong to him must pay rent to him. Three hundred households, Xia Hongsheng suddenly had a feeling of turning over and becoming a landlord. After about two hours of running wildly, Xia Hongsheng and Qi Yong arrived in Jingyang County, and went straight to their mansion, where they saw the high wall of Zhumen, which was much larger than the house that Qu Tutong gave him a temporary residence.

Xia Hongsheng had already gotten the key from the officials of the construction prison, and when he went in to take a look, the utensils inside were all ready. Xia Hongshengle scratched his head, the treatment of civil servants in the Tang Dynasty was quite good, not to mention building a house, or just moving in with his bag, it's not too humane!

In addition to this mansion, there is also a lot of land around that already belongs to Xia Hongsheng, which is the benefit of being knighted. Xia Hongsheng led Qi Yong around a big circle, observed the surrounding terrain, and found that it was indeed worthy of being a place in Guanzhong, with excellent soil quality and very suitable for planting. This quickly reminded Xia Hongsheng of the popular circular agriculture in later generations. After all, he has 300 households, and since he depends on them for food, he has the obligation to lead them to prosperity! There is also a workshop, a carpenter is most needed at the moment, Xia Hongsheng is fed up with kneeling and sitting, and is ready to find a carpenter as soon as he moves over, make tables, chairs and sofas according to the appearance of the later life, and replace everything in the house.

"Qi Yong, in three days, I will move out of Jiang Guogong's house, and when the time comes, you should also go back to Luoyang." After walking around for a long time, Xia Hongsheng said to Qi Yong. To be honest, after such a long time, he is really a little reluctant to come to this follower, not to mention the eyes, he is also very clever, and he is strong in martial arts, well-informed, and very useful.

But seeing Qi Yong's eyes rolling, he then took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Xia Hongsheng, bowed down and said: "Childe, this letter was handed over to the younger brother by the general before departure, saying that His Majesty will definitely give the Gongzi Mansion to be built, and when the Gongzi's Mansion is completed, it will be handed over to the Gongzi on the day of housewarming." The little courage will be handed over to the son today. ”

"Oh?" Xia Hongsheng was taken aback, quickly took the letter, and unfolded it to read it carefully.

Soon, Xia Hongsheng finished reading the letter, Qu Tutong said in his heart that he was old, and he was afraid that the end was approaching, and he had been fighting horses all his life, and he was very relieved to see the horseshoe and saber appear before he died. For Xia Hongsheng's housewarming, he sent a housewarming gift, that is, the house, and those who waited, saying that Xia Hongsheng's Jingyang, in case he sometimes needs to stay in Chang'an, but there is nowhere to go, and it happens that the house is idle, so he gave it to Xia Hongsheng. In addition, Qu Tutong also mentioned that the 20 or so pro-soldiers are all loyal to Geng's elite soldiers, and they have been with him for a long time, many of them are sons inheriting their father's business, and they are afraid that they will not live long, and they hope to entrust these pro-soldiers to Xia Hongsheng and let Xia Hongsheng treat them well.

"Childe, we are all the general's own soldiers, if the general goes, we have to unload our armor and return to the field to repay the general's kindness. Before leaving, the general instructed me to wait, and gave the general an order to let the brothers follow the son. The general told us not to disclose it to the son, let us make our own decisions, if the son treats us, we will stay, if the son does not wait, we will wait and return to Luoyang. During this period of time, I have been trusted by Gongzi, and we are also courteous to our brothers, we are grateful for Gongzi's kindness and are willing to work hard for Gongzi! Please take it in! Qi Yong saw that Xia Hongsheng had finished reading the letter, walked up to Xia Hongsheng, brushed it and knelt on one knee, and shouted loudly.

Qi Yong They are Qu Tutong's own soldiers, the absolute elite do not need to be doubted, Qu Tutong is also grateful to them, he feels that he is about to be unable to hold on, in order to prevent them from being underestimated and excluded after his death, so he gave Xia Hongsheng, which is considered to have arranged a way out for them, and he was afraid that Xia Hongsheng would not take them in, so he gave the house and those servants to Xia Hongsheng.

Xia Hongsheng was stunned at first, and then suddenly felt ecstatic and grateful. Qu Tutong is a general who values love and righteousness, and he also helped Xia Hongsheng a lot, Xia Hongsheng is grateful for this kindness, and he is also happy to get Qi Yong and others. At least, I'm not afraid that there will be no bodyguards in my new house......

And Qi Yong and these people can play a role in front of Xia Hongsheng, which is far more than a bodyguard. Almost instantly, Xia Hongsheng clarified the positioning of Qi Yong's twenty or so people in his heart.

That's right, they will also become his personal soldiers, will become a solid shield in his hands!
