There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

"A household of 40, with a population of nearly [-], but with a single city, such a population can be reached. It is indeed the city of the Southwest leader."

While looking at the list, the pottery merchant clicked his tongue in admiration, and at the same time scanned Huang Quan, Wang Lei, Liu Ba, Li Hui, Qin Mi and others below with his eyes...

These people all lowered their heads and said nothing.

The pottery merchant smiled slightly, but he didn't care, he put down the household registration form in his hand, and said: "Since you have joined the imperial court with Liu Jiyu, you will be the subjects of the great man from now on, that is, Tao's colleagues, between us colleagues, If you have something to say, it’s okay to say it, you don’t have to hide it, if you have any unpleasantness in your heart, it’s okay to say it.”

Everyone still bowed their heads and did not answer.

The potter seemed to be indifferent, and said: "It's okay if you don't answer, but no matter what, we will manage the Shu land together from now on. If there is a gap in our hearts, I am afraid that this land of abundance and joy may not be able to manage it." Well, I hope you all will think carefully about it.”

When Huang Quan heard this, his expression seemed to move.

He cupped his hands and said: "From what the prime minister said, it seems that he has a lot of insight in governing Shu. I don't know what the prime minister has in mind for the development of central Shu?"

The pottery merchant smiled and said, "Mr. Huang is finally willing to talk to me, so I want to ask Mr. Huang first, what is the most difficult thing in developing Shu?"

Huang Quan puffed up his chest and said solemnly: "Since ancient times, although the people of Shu thought that they had already been united in Zhengshuo of the Central Plains, the land of Shu was forced by the Rong in the west and the barbarians in the south. Even though the language of Shangqingtian is as rich as Chengdu, in the eyes of the people of Middle Earth, it still has a sense of foreign land."

The pottery merchant nodded, and said: "Huang Gong's words can be said to be right to the point. For the land of Sichuan and Shu, the road and location are indeed a big problem. This is a natural disadvantage that cannot be changed, and neither can I, but relatively In terms of disadvantages, Sichuan and Shu also have their advantages, we just need to make use of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses."

Huang Quan raised his head and said, "May I ask what is the chief in Shu?"

"stable."

The pottery merchant snapped his fingers and said, "The land in the Central Plains and the Northwest has suffered repeated turmoil. In the lands of Jiangnan and Jinling, I have taken in a large number of refugees who migrated from the Central Plains. It is not enough to say that so many people, especially the refugees from Guanzhong, most of them came to Xichuan. After all, compared with the Central Plains, Shuzhong can be described as stable and prosperous. This has increased the manpower of Shuzhong to a certain extent, which can be regarded as It's time for Shu."

After a pause, the potter said again: "The brocade industry in Sichuan is famous all over the world. In my opinion, if we want to develop Sichuan and Sichuan, we must first expand the silk industry and increase the varieties of Sichuan brocade, especially the patterns of Sichuan brocade. With development and innovation, we will soon usher in an era of peace. At that time, more auspicious patterns will be added to the Shu brocade, not only the current patterns of birds and animals, but also flowers blooming, rivers, rivers, fish, wishful peonies, etc., with their own advantages Innovation must be developed, this is the first law of development.”

Qin Mi, Li Hui, Wang Lei and the others looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

The potter continued: "Of course, brocade weaving is only a key point of development. You can't put all your treasures on it. To the south of Chengdu is Nanzhong. Although the mountains and mountains are full of poisonous miasma, there are also many high-quality medicinal materials and mountain treasures. I intend to set up medicine markets in Chengdu and Hanzhong in the future... In addition, there is agriculture. Chengdu's excellent soil is famous all over the world, but you probably don't know that these high-quality soils can be divided into at least a dozen types..."

After a lot of ramblings, the group of surrenders headed by Huang Quan was completely dumbfounded.

After the Tao merchant had finished speaking, Huang Quan looked at him suspiciously, and said, "Before the prime minister came to Xichuan, he seemed to have done a lot of homework."

The Tao merchant smiled and said, "That's natural. After all, this is the land of the Han Dynasty. Since Liu Jiyu has surrendered, Tao must take care of it. It's all the land of the Han Dynasty. Naturally, I can't be biased."

Although everyone didn't say anything, the pottery merchant could see that they had changed because of their enthusiasm.

After all, no one wants to achieve nothing, everyone hopes to show their talents, especially Sichuan and Shu, which is of great significance to these former officials of Yizhou.

The potter came to this land with enthusiasm, and he believed that he would be able to stimulate their enthusiasm.

The crowd chatted with each other for a whole afternoon before they dispersed.

As soon as everyone left, Tai Shici rushed into the mansion in a hurry.

"Third brother, urgent military situation!"

The pottery merchant didn't reach out to take the battle report, but said, "Cao Cao and Liu Bei have put all their eggs in one basket?"

Tai Shici was taken aback when he heard the words, he looked at the battle report in his hand suspiciously, and asked in surprise, "How do you know?"

The pottery merchant chuckled and said, "Of course I know. How many years have I known them? As soon as they stick out their buttocks, I know they are..."

After a pause, the pottery merchant swallowed his words.

It seems somewhat disgusting.

"How about Jiange Pass? Did they leave soldiers and horses to guard it?"

Tai Shici nodded, and said: "It's here, a small number of soldiers are left to defend. Mr. Guo and General Xu are driving troops to attack desperately."

The pottery merchant nodded suddenly, and said: "It seems that Cao Cao and Liu Bei are fighting for time with me. They want to kill me before the army behind breaks through the sword pavilion... This is also hating me to the extreme. gone."

"Third brother, what shall we do?"

"What can I do? Of course I won't let them kill me, and I will kill them backhanded. It's the last battle. Tell the brothers, give me some energy and fight a good battle!"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Cao Cao and Liu Bei's soldiers and horses have left the Jiange, and now there are only a small number of soldiers guarding the Jiange Pass, and the leading generals are Cao Jiang Liang Xi and others.

After Guo Jia heard the news, he asked Xu Rong and others to tackle the problem immediately.

The main force of the Jinling Army outside the Jiange Pass immediately launched a strong attack, with Xu Rong, Xu Huang, Zhang He, Gao Lan, Qu Yi, Ji Ling, Zhang Liao, Gao and other generals as the pioneers, and divided into teams, taking turns to attack like spinning wheels. Take Jiange Pass in one go.

The guards in the pass died in battle, and the three armies either dispersed or surrendered.

After a great battle, the Jinling Army successfully entered the pass, and Xu Rong, Xu Huang and others began to arrange for the garrison.

But before the arrangement was long, Guo Jia hurried over and asked the two of them, "We need to send troops immediately."

Xu Rong was a little dazed when he heard this: "Send troops immediately? Jun Guo, we have just entered the pass. The soldiers of the three armies haven't had a bite of their hot food yet, and the dead bodies in the pass have not been cleaned up yet."

Xu Huang also nodded and said: "The three armies are exhausted from tackling key problems, so it is not appropriate to be here."

Guo Jia raised his hand to block their conversation.

"Guo Mou knows what you said, but we can't afford to delay the current situation. As Guo Mou expected, Cao Cao and Liu Bei are completely crazy now. They just want to concentrate all their strength. Attack the prime minister's road and kill the prime minister, so we can't stop, but quickly catch up and attack the prime minister on both sides!"

Xu Huang's expression changed when he heard the words, and he said: "So that's the case, if it's the case, we need to dispatch troops quickly!"

Xu Rong turned his head and shouted: "Call all the generals to come, gather the cavalry quickly!"

Just when several people started to prepare for action, a school official from the school affairs office rushed over and said to Guo Jia: "Master, take a prisoner and call himself Jia Xu."

Guo Jia raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

Just as Guo Jia expected, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were gathering a brigade of soldiers and horses, rushing towards the Fushui Pass where the potters were located.

Outside the Fushui Pass, the pottery merchants had prepared their soldiers and were waiting in full force, waiting for the arrival of Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

A Fei was guarding the potter's side, his expression somewhat nervous.

The pottery merchant turned to look at him, and couldn't help being amused: "A Fei, you are now a battle-hardened warrior, why do you still shrink back when you encounter such a trivial matter? I'm sorry for your godfather's education."

Ah Fei hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, we have the Fushui Pass as a barrier. Instead, we are lining up outside the pass and waiting to compete with Cao Liu. In the end, I feel that it is really impossible. After all, those two people are just thieves waiting to die, and the prime minister is A tool of a thousand gold, just in case something goes wrong"

The pottery merchant raised his hand, blocked his words, and said: "That being said, after all, Cao Cao and Liu Bei have been my opponents for many years. Even if it is unnecessary now, I still want to give them the respect they deserve. That's all."

Ah Fei was a little nervous and said, "What if something goes wrong?"

The pottery merchant shook his head: "There will be no mistakes. Once Cao Cao and Liu Bei leave Jiange Pass, with the strength of Guo Jia, Xu Rong and others, it is more than enough to take Jiange Pass. It is estimated that the time difference will not be large." It's been too long, after Guo Jia brings the soldiers and horses, we will naturally be able to attack back and forth, and we will be safe."

Ah Fei muttered: "But what if Guo Jia miscalculates?"
