Lord Xinling heard that the King of Wei was willing to give up Nanyang completely for the sake of cultivating the fields. He felt very painful in his heart, but he had no choice but to ask: "What do you guys think?"

Wei Qidao: "Of the cities in Nanyang, Wen is the largest. The city is strong and the land is poor. If Wen can be retained, the rest can be abandoned!"

Lord Xinling suppressed his impulse and said: "There must be no difference in what the ministers have agreed."

Mang Mao said: "Doctor Jin Bi is telling me that I hope the king will make a plan early. There are quite a few people with frostbite in the camp. Since the soldiers left the battle, they have been camping for several months and they all have grievances. I'm afraid something will change!"

Lord Xinling said: "It all depends on the ministers to maintain it."

Wei Qidao said: "I only hope that Duanzi's mission will be successful and the Qin people will retreat early. After unsealing, Putian will be attacked in both places. I don't know how much salary I will have left this year!"

Lord Xinling deliberately changed the topic and did not want to worry too much about the war. When he saw the topic of unsealing, he asked: "How much has been left since unsealing the army?"

Wei Qidao: "Fortunately, thanks to the power of the general and the blessing of the king, in the midst of the war, the unblocked water channel continued. There was an endless supply of Chu's talents. Although the number of merchants increased slightly, they were still sufficient. The unblocked merchants continued to operate as usual. Only..."

Suddenly stopped. Mr. Xinling asked strangely: "How?"

When Wei Qi saw that Lord Xinling noticed what he had missed, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Only after our army entered Qifeng, we requisitioned commercial houses and suffered some minor damage."

Lord Xinling said: "When people from Qin enter Qifeng, why don't they enter merchant houses?"

Wei Qi said: "When the Qin people entered Qifeng, they settled in the city of Qifeng and east of the river. All the businesses and houses in the west of the river were able to operate without any hindrance."

Lord Xinling thought for a moment and said, "That's what you said. I'm heading to the city alone to open the seal. The filthy air along the way makes it hard to breathe. Even though I built a platform in the east of the city, it's still not quiet!"

When Wei Qi saw that Lord Xinling did not investigate Wei Jun's entry into the shop, he quickly changed the subject and said, "It's an unexpected joy to unseale the filthy things!"

Lord Xinling asked: "Where does happiness come from?"

Wei Qidao said: "The best ones will go into the fields, the next ones will be scattered among the kings, and the next ones will be scattered among the people. If we can keep up with the farming season, next year's harvest will definitely increase! And the salary and rice can also be sent out accordingly."

"

Lord Xinling said: "How can we get a lot of dung by just opening the seal?"

Wei Qidao said: "When people in Qin excrement and urine, they bury them in deep pits. However, as time goes by, the layer after layer turns into dung, which can be three feet deep! There is no male mother in the seal, so it is useless to abandon it; its filthy odor needs to be eliminated early.

To do good deeds, I would like to ask all the merchants to raise their own funds and dig up the soil and transport it in four directions. The use of manure does not require excrement and urine, but water must be added before it can be used. It can be sprinkled directly on the ground and plowed to obtain it. The soil's strength can be extended by three years.

Sir, do you have any intention?"

Lord Xinling said: "It is difficult for a young man to reach the south of his land. However, the hundreds of miles of Xinling's land are all plains, so what he needs is certainly not small."

Wei Qidao: "Young master's land is hundreds of miles away, and there are tens of millions of acres of farmland. He raises it with dung soil. If the acres increase by three bushels, the annual increase will increase by three million stones! How can it be compared with a thousand pieces of gold!"

Lord Xinling said: "How can I be so virtuous as to accept the favor of the Prime Minister of Wei!"

Wei Qi said: "I don't dare to do favors, but I have something to ask for!"

Lord Xinling said: "Prime Minister Wei, I dare not obey my orders!"

Wei Qidao said: "The farmland has been severely damaged by the army, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to supply rice. I hope that you will humble yourself a little in the court, so as not to get rice this year, and you will be very lucky. If the farmyard is unsealed with dung, there will be a great harvest every year, and there will be even more!"

Lord Xinling said: "How dare you bother the Prime Minister of Wei? If you go to the army alone, behave unpredictably, exhaust the three armies, and work without success, it is an unscrupulous fault! I am about to ask for punishment in the court."

Wei Qidao: "The prince knows his ministers, and the ministers must be willing to do it!"

Mang Mao, who was standing next to him, saw that the two people were talking lively, and also intervened: "Don't be surprised, Prime Minister Wei. The Chenliu land is 500,000 acres. Although it is small, I am still willing to get Prime Minister Wei's excrement."

Wei Qi said: "How dare you not accept the title of general?"

Mang Mao said: "You must have three fights every year before you can do it!"

Wei Qidao: "The best one will definitely win, the best one will definitely win!"

Lord Xinling regretted and said: "Our army in Huayang has a lot of excrement, and it's all under the control of the Dazai!"

Wei Qidao said: "Huayang is the land of Han; if it accumulates excrement, it will benefit Han; if the Dazai takes over, it will benefit Wei! Don't regret it, sir!" Everyone laughed. The depressed atmosphere when they were discussing the dedication of the city was swept away.

But what was supposed to come would eventually come. In the afternoon, Duan Ziqian came back and reported the price offered by Ranghou: Ranghou asked for boiled dates.

Now several people felt it was difficult. Ranghou's request hit the right edge between what was acceptable and what was not acceptable to the Wei State: Zhuzao was originally located at the border of Wei, Song, and Qi. After the Song State was destroyed, the Song State's

Part of the land belonged to the Wei State, but Zhuzao was still a border town. It was not very important, but it was not a place that could be given up lightly: it was next to the prosperous commercial city of Tao. Tao was a feudal state of the ancient Cao State.

Where. Since Tao Zhugong came out, Tao's status as "among the world" is unshakable; Cao and Song were both guilty of cherishing jade, and were destroyed for this reason; and Tao is now the territory of Qin, and Qin's Prime Minister Ranghou Wei Ran's

The fiefdom. Qin Suo's request for Zhuzao was undoubtedly to expand the scope of Tao; Zhuzao was a border city, so its defensive power was naturally strong. Based on this analysis, several people felt that they could not give up Zhuzao under any circumstances, otherwise

, Song County, the former border county of Song State that was acquired by Wei State, is no longer safe.

But if we have to go to war with Qin under the city of Daliang and in the fields just for a mere cooking date... If we refuse, what is the reason? What is the exchange condition?

Everyone was at a loss.

Lord Xinling suddenly said: "Mr. Ruoche, what should we do?"

Mang Mao said: "I would like to go and consult with you!" After getting everyone's acquiescence, Mang Mao resigned. Soon he came back and said: "The Qin people are in trouble, and Mr. Che can't help it. I would like to offer it if I know how to do it."

So things were at a stalemate. Everyone couldn't think of any good solution even when they got together. The front line couldn't start fighting at the moment, so they were just in a stalemate. There wouldn't be anything urgent, so they simply went home.

As soon as he arrived at Mr. Wei's Mansion, Mr. Zhongyue immediately found Mr. Cao and asked him to hire several gentlemen with strong covert tracking skills to keep an eye on Mr. Che You in Mang Mansion.

Mr. Cao asked: "What if you do anything?"

Mr. Zhongyue said: "No need. Just know where it is going!"

Mr. Cao said: "This is easy!"

Soon Mr. Cao reported back to Mr. Zhongyue that Mr. Cheyou had left home and did not know where he was.

Mr. Zhongyue asked the gatekeepers to make secret visits to all the gates in Daliang City. Only then could anyone leave the city holding the Mangfu Festival Talisman.

I'll report back soon, but I haven't seen you yet!

Mr. Zhongyue also felt that something was strange: Mr. Cheyou was invisible! Where was he going?

From the very beginning, Mr. Zhong Yue thought that Mr. Che You's so-called "skilled" approach was just to find someone to discuss with. However, Mr. Che You's deliberate concealment aroused Mr. Zhong Yue's curiosity: What could make Mr. Che You so aloof?

Everyone has to ask, who is it? Why did Mr. Cheyou hide it? Mr. Zhongyue's first reaction was that this might hurt Mr. Cheyou's self-esteem and make him appear less intelligent. Now look at it

Come on, things are far from that simple! Just to avoid hurting your self-esteem, there is no need to resort to such drastic measures, unless Mr. Che You is a narcissist, but he is obviously not! No one doubts Mr. Che You's wisdom!

Mr. Zhongyue came to Zhang Yue to discuss it, and Zhang Yue immediately thought of the old man Zhang Lu whom he met in Qifeng. After hearing this, Mr. Zhongyue also thought it was possible. After all, Mr. Cheyou and the old man easily passed the unsealing order, and Wei

He was moved. Zhongyue asked Zhang Sui, "How old is your son?"

Zhang Ye said: "My beard and hair are all white, and my body is stooped, as if I am about to fall into a tree!"

Mr. Zhongyue lamented: "It's a pity that heroes are eventually buried in the sand!"

When the two earth-shattering retainers were sighing at each other, Mr. Che You was preparing to leave the city at the Yimen Guards Station. Suddenly, a soldier came over to report: "A retainer from the Young Master's Mansion is asking if anyone is leaving the city holding the Mang Mansion Festival Talisman?"

Hou Ying smiled and said: "How virtuous are you to make the young master look better!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "What kind of virtue is it to come at night and scold him as a fool?" Both of them laughed.

Hou Ying said: "Go quickly, or you will be known later. After leaving the city, I found a wine shop to rest for a while. When it was dark, I went to the rebels to stay overnight... All the young master's disciples are fools, and they actually used the Mang Mansion Festival Talisman as a matter of fact!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "How do you know the talisman of the Yi gatekeeper?"

Mr. Che You carried a baggage on his back and walked out of Yimen to a wine shop. In the wine shop, he asked an old man for advice, so he invited an old man to sit with him and asked about some customs and customs. The old man naturally knew everything.

It was said that they didn't go home until it was getting late.

Mr. Cheyou followed his words and found a home to stay. He told the people in the hall that he didn't need to come to wait on him. The people in the hall naturally understood and felt at ease.

Mr. Cheyou unpacked his bag, put on his black clothes, and walked away. He observed carefully along the way and found no one following him. He went straight to Donghongli and knocked on the code at the back door. After receiving a response, he climbed over the fence and entered.

Wing room.

Zhang Lu was sitting on the straw mat, and the fire in the jar was flickering brightly and darkly, making Zhang Lu's face strangely dim and brightly illuminated. Mr. Cheyou cursed: "I can also play tricks on ghosts!"

Zhang Lu said: "You have a guilty conscience, why should I do anything to you!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "Why do I feel so guilty?"

Zhang Lu said: "Who can tell!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "You must be shocked! Qin Fu killed 40,000 Han soldiers. Are you shocked?"

Zhang Lu said: "There is no need to be surprised if you are calculating mentally but not prepared!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "Are you surprised when the Qin people returned to the suburbs of Liang?"

Zhang Lu said: "Everyone in our city has gone to defend the war, how can we be surprised!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "Wei Fu and Qin He, are you shocked?"

Zhang Ludao: "We can't fight, we can't defend, but we've lost our ground. There's nothing we can do if there's no peace!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "How can you make peace with Qin?"

Zhang Lu said: "We must also win the city!"

Mr. Che You said: "Where is the city?"

Zhang Lu said: "It's just a city in Nanyang, it's so warm!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "You have lost it. Qin Suo cooked dates!"

Zhang Lu thought for a while and said: "Wonderful, what a suo!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "What's the beauty of it?"

Zhang Lu said: "The beauty is that there is no difference at all. One point more will make you greedy, and one point less will make you cowardly. Boiled dates will make it easier to cultivate the fields, which is exactly the same!"

Mr. Cheyou said: "If the Lord of Wei doesn't want it, what can I do?"

Zhang Lu said: "Can he resist the Qin soldiers? Do you want to destroy the farmland and preserve the boiled dates?"

Mr. Cheyou said: "If you can boil dates and make pottery, what is the plan of Marquis Rang? You may not be able to get it from the King of Qin, but there may be something you can do."
