Ye Jianqiu

122

The desert is like snow, and the moon is like a hook.

In the military tents in the sea of ​​sand, the lights were kept on all night.In the largest military tent, a raging bonfire was lit.

Situ Jin and Uncle Jin sat cross-legged in front of the short table, discussing something non-stop, facing the spread out sheepskin map.

I saw Situ Jin pointing to the map and said: "Uncle Jin, look, the army of the Chi Kingdom dug a few long tunnels from here, and when our forward appeared at the pass, they were caught off guard. I didn't expect this Chi State has an army composed of a large number of supernatural beings, which is really surprising. These tigers and wolves are not afraid of the desert and danger, just like haunting flat land."

Uncle Jin nodded: "Yes, they still have flying orcs, which can be used for reconnaissance and air strikes. If things go on like this, I'm afraid Chi Kingdom will hit Yingtou Mountain within three days."

Situ Jin snorted coldly and said: "We won't trip over the same stone twice. No matter how brave they are, they are nothing more than a group of orcs. We veteran soldiers who have been on the battlefield are still afraid of them? Using my sunset bow will surely destroy the sky. The flyers were shot down one by one, cooked and burned! As for the tunnels, we just need to lay down mines in advance, as long as they dare to show their heads, they will come out and blow up one by one, no trouble at all!"

Uncle Jin nodded and said, "That's right, regardless of man or beast, they can use the most powerful firearms to repel them in turn. Although they only temporarily gained the upper hand, they suffered a lot of casualties, and they are now resting in the rear."

Uncle Jin looked at the map and pondered for a long time, "Chi Kingdom has always taken the honor of taking back Mount Yingtou. If they only stared at Mount Yingtou, we wouldn't be afraid, it's just..."

"Just what?"

Seeing Uncle Jin's furrowed brows, Situ Jin's heart tightened.

Jin Bo pointed to the map and said, "Look, Junzhi, apart from a few larger peaks in the Yingtou Mountains separating us from Chi Kingdom, if we bypass these small tribes around the north of Chi Kingdom and pass Liusha River, Then it will reach Fengyuan County and Kaiyan Town on the border of our Qingluan."

Situ Jin said confidently: "Probably not. The source of the Liusha River is in Chi Country. It is formed by melting ice water from snow peaks. The local area is called Qingyuan River. Qingyuan River winds through the valley at the foot of Yingtou Mountain. It was only when Qingyang covered with yellow sand became turbid... The Kingdom of Chi probably wouldn't plan to hit the Liusha River, because the Liusha River is very turbulent in the high mountains and valleys on the border between the two countries. Not only is the terrain steep, but there are many whirlpools. , no one can cross. There are also black tiger fish in the river, which are ferocious and cannibalize people. Even the planks of the boat can be eaten clean, so don’t worry too much.”

Uncle Jin pondered for a long time and said, "I hope so.

Uncle Jin raised his head and said again: "Junzhi, news came from the office today that the brothers caught the invisible thief who visited again. I heard that she went to the armory to search for something, but she knocked over a man. The gangster Jin Dang was smashed to the ground and could not move. It is a pity that the brothers reported to the police and were finally taken away by Yang Xiaomi. At the same time, the black stone was also taken away. I boldly guess that the black stone and the She has an unusual relationship, maybe the thief is a member of the alien race from heaven."

Situ Jin felt a little regretful: "Uncle Jin, if you don't mention it, I will forget about it. In fact, she did not do evil, but it is not a hidden danger. She also came to our office before, just stealing some rice. But why is she looking for Heishi again now?"

Uncle Jin thought for a while and said, "Does the thief still have no money? At the beginning, she stole the messy things maybe just for excitement, but the army didn't even have much money except weapons. It's just that black stone... But I can't think of a specific reason. .”

"Forget it, it's just a thief and a black stone. If she appears near me now, I will definitely be able to detect it. If she is an enemy, she will definitely not be able to escape from my palm. If she is a friend, she can help us!"

Uncle Jin was helpless: "Actually, I wanted to find out the truth about her and Hei Shi, but Yang Xiaomi and others have disappeared. And what I am most worried about now is that there will be other invisible people who will set fire to our army rations in the future! "

Speaking of this, Situ Jin wanted to get angry again.

Situ Jin said angrily: "If it wasn't for Ye Jianqiu's order, how could I have attacked the Cao family! Now the Cao family and Lu Yanyu are working together to suppress our army. If they don't send troops to reinforce them, it will be self-destructive!" "

Ye Jianqiu told Situ Jin to come to ask for money and food in person, but the stubborn Situ Jin didn't even mention asking for help in his dictionary.Therefore, he would rather find another way than to see Ye Jianqiu, and the distance between the two is getting farther and farther.

Uncle Jin shook his head and said, "I'm afraid the Cao family is not that capable. The Cao family doesn't have much say in front of General Lu. And the most important thing is that Emperor Xiaoyuan hardly cares about political affairs, and Lu Yanyu still obeys King Qi's orders behind his back. "

Situ Jin tapped the table slowly again, and said in deep thought: "I was once seen by the emperor when I was in Linyue City. The Emperor Xiaoyuan looked very majestic and decisive, so the impression was not bad. But there are rumors that He has a volatile personality, maybe he has another side that you don't know."

Uncle Jin sighed and said: "The emperor's heart is unpredictable. It is true or false, maybe only the people around him know the true face. Emperor Xiaoyuan once shut himself up for three years and ignored the government. Jiangshan Sheji. In fact, it is best to let King Qi supervise the country. After all, he is a virtuous king. Unfortunately, even the people of Chi country are laughing at us, saying that Da Qingluan is best at punishing his own people, saying that they don’t need to use a single soldier. pawn, we can wait for us to disintegrate ourselves."

Situ Jin sighed: "Although this statement is too arrogant, there is some truth to it. And according to Yuying's informant, the king of Qi is about to die!"

Jin Bo said: "If the king of Qi dies, Lu Yanyu will be the first to rise up and give orders to the heroes. It can be seen that the king of Qi is still in the world."

Situ Jin felt desolate: "The world is so big that no one understands our difficulties. The world has abandoned you and me. Now that the Chi Kingdom has begun to attack, but no one cares. Is it only you and me who know that the country is like blood?"

Uncle Jin was silent, he knew very well in his heart that the country of Chi has been suffering from constant hidden dangers all year round, and it has become a chronic disease that doesn't hurt or itch.If the enemy army did not attack on a large scale and pose a huge threat, then the higher authorities would not pay attention to it.

Moreover, the imperial court had killed countless important officials a while ago, and the vassal kings from all over the country were even more in danger. Who would do anything thankless for these small-scale wars on the border?Only passionate soldiers like him and Situ Jin would take the initiative to defend every inch of Qingluan's territory for the fall of a small hill.

Uncle Jin said slowly, "Junzhi, if you die for your country and are buried in this desert, will you regret it?"

"not regret."

Situ Jin is a born warrior, no matter how cold the world treats him, he will still stick to his beliefs and ideals.

Looking at the raging bonfire, Uncle Jin said in a trance: "I don't regret it either. It's just that I don't have the strength of character like you, and I'm only for my lover."

"spouse?"

Situ Jin was a little surprised, it was the first time he heard Uncle Jin reveal his private affairs.

Uncle Jin nodded and said: "That's right, he came to Qingyang with me, and died accidentally during a mountain tour. I buried him in the yellow sand of the desert with my own hands, and vowed to be with him forever. On the day he passed away, I turned white all night."

Situ Jin looked at the gray-haired Uncle Jin who was so shocked that he couldn't speak, and just murmured: "But you said..."

Uncle Jin smiled desolately: "That's right, I said I was sick, so you have no doubts."

Situ Jin was stunned, his heart suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain, and the bridge of his nose was sore.

Uncle Jin sighed and said, "Jun Zhi, we only have common topics when we talk about military affairs, but you don't understand when it comes to love. Tell me, how can we people who are used to life and death be afraid of demons and ghosts? In fact, I have also prayed countless times, sincerely hoping that my lover will turn into a ghost to meet me in the middle of the night... Unfortunately, there will never be..."

Situ Jin was heartbroken and said: "Uncle Jin, did I... miss something?"

Uncle Jin shook his head: "I can't help you with some things, you have to understand them yourself."

Situ Jin felt as if all the strength in his body had been sucked out, and he murmured, "Uncle Jin, what should I do? The farm... I've already sent someone to take it over..."

Uncle Jin asked in surprise, "Why?"

Situ Jin smiled wryly and said, "Uncle Jin, I seem to have done another irreversible thing..."

..........................................

Another busy morning.

Standing at the gate of the farm, Ye Jianqiu looked at the bustling crowd, listened to the dialects of various places, and watched a large amount of money flow into his bank, feeling a little emotional in his heart.Time flies so fast, the golden autumn of harvest has passed, and now it is early winter, and thin frost flowers are beginning to appear in the fields.

After rubbing his hands, he hurried to the VIP reception room of the farm. Li Ziding had been waiting for him for a long time.

In the warm VIP room, a large copper stove was also lit.

I saw Li Ziding dressed in a moon-white robe, with black hair in high bundles, standing there quietly with his hands behind his back like a orchid and jade tree, looking at the slogans and various rules and regulations on the wall.Li Ziding couldn't help but laugh the most: all employees participate, strengthen management, strive for excellence, and create quality!

He couldn't help smiling, it was so straightforward!Go back and paste a few in your own workshop!

When Ye Jianqiu entered the room, there was no greetings and politeness, and he directly picked up the big copper pot and started to make tea: "Boss Li, come and taste the Yunwu green tea from our farm."

Since the two of them started working together, many formalities have been avoided. The time of both parties is precious, and the meeting is straight to the point.

Li Ziding sat on the soft leather sofa, reached out to take the teacup, carefully admired the needle-like tea leaves in the cup, sniffed it lightly, bowed his head and tasted it lightly, and said: "Mist locks thousands of trees, clouds open myriad valleys. The fragrance floats ten miles away, and the taste is mellow in a cup...not bad, do you have it in stock?"

"Not in stock, just give you a pack if you like to drink."

Li Ziding smiled: "The more valuable things on your farm, the less you sell them to others, but keep them for your own enjoyment. For example, the ice point, you don't sell it for money, but you can give it to merchants for free."

"That's right, it's called hunger marketing. Merchants will think about these things every day, and after a period of time has stimulated their appetite, they can sell them at a higher price when the real large quantities of goods are on the market during the Spring Festival peak season."

The farm has a cold storage, so it has a milk-flavored and fruity-flavored ice cream. It is packed in a small carton and a small wooden spoon is attached. All merchants can enjoy a box for free when they purchase.Those who have used it all like it, and some even bring thick cotton wraps to take home for their wives and children to taste.

The farm not only stores a large amount of dairy products, meat, poultry, fruits and vegetables, cold drinks, flowers, green plants, etc., but also cut meat such as chickens and ducks.Customers can specify a certain cut meat to pick up the goods. Chicken legs, chicken feet, trotters, elbows, etc. are all fine. The meat cut so meticulously that every joint makes all the merchants amazed!

When the inventory is opened during the peak season of the Spring Festival, it is estimated that the money earned will be rolled up!

Li Ziding couldn't help but admire Ye Jianqiu's long-term vision, so he visited the farm more and more to "learn scriptures".

He put down his teacup and said, "Jianqiu, can you build one for me in your cold storage, no matter how big or small the area is, and how much it will cost."

He wants to build a private cold storage for his own use only.

Ye Jianqiu smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I'm afraid there is no chance. After a year, the ice and snow will slowly melt, and there is nothing I can do."

"I see."

Li Ziding didn't say anything else, he pointed to a large cardboard box on the table and said, "Jianqiu, what do you think of these samples? If you are satisfied, we will process them in batches."

Ye Jianqiu first looked at the appearance of this big cardboard box, and saw that it was made of light yellow straw paper, and the box body was printed with the farm logo of a bright red five-pointed star, and the name, pattern, and weight of the goods were indicated. date of manufacture and so on.And the glue at the connection is very strong, but a little brittle, but it can be recycled and reused.

He opened the box, and inside were exquisite paper boxes of different shapes and sizes, both round and square.

He nodded and said: "Others are okay, but the inner layer of the carton for packing frozen meat should be filled with waterproof paper to prevent the penetration of melted ice water."

"If it is to prevent melting, the transport carriage should also be tightly wrapped to prevent dry wind, strong sun and sun exposure. And the inside of the packing box must be tightly wrapped with oilcloth."

"That's right!"

Li Ziding is really smart, and his proposal is the prototype of a constant temperature fresh-keeping transport vehicle.

"Make us egg trays next time."

Ye Jianqiu lowered his head, drew a few patterns on the paper with a pen, and wrote down the making method.

Li Ziding took over the drawings, looked at them carefully, and said, "Except for the pressed molds, the cost of this batch of goods is not high, and the process is also very simple. After they are made, they will be sent to the farm for free."

"In business talk business, how can there be no cost, so I will have a burden."

Li Ziding laughed: "You know what I mean, it's the printer."

Ye Jianqiu spread his hands helplessly: "I can only draw a picture, I really don't understand the principle."

"Then what to do, only you can help me with the printer. If you help me successfully make a printer, our printing workshop will work for the farm for free for three years."

Ye Jianqiu laughed and said, "It won't work for five years, I don't have that talent."

"How about this, how about I pick you up tonight and go to the theater together? Then, you might think of something."

Ye Jianqiu shook his head: "No need, I don't have time."

"Jianqiu, you're stretching yourself too tight. Follow me to relax, and you'll relax a bit."

Due to poor rest, Ye Jianqiu's eye circles were a little red, and his face was a little tired.

Seeing Li Ziding staring at his face in rapt attention, Ye Jianqiu smiled and said, "Boss Li, your eyes always make me feel that you are looking at others through me."

Li Ziding was silent for a long time, lowered his head and slowly drew circles along the edge of the teacup with his fingers, and finally he said slowly: "That's right, because you are very similar to an old friend of mine."

He raised his head and took a closer look at Ye Jianqiu, and saw that he was wearing an ordinary blue gown with a moon-white jacket over it, a white collar showing his ivory-like slender neck, his eyebrows and eyes were exquisite, especially his hands , white and pure, as delicate as a jade onion... From head to toe, he is so elegant and incomparable that even from a distance, he can feel a hazy sense of detachment from smoke and dust.

In fact, what Li Ziding cared about was not his appearance, but the deja vu temperament of the other party... Light as a chrysanthemum, quiet as an orchid, and fragrant as a plum.

Ye Jianqiu's personality is moist and quiet, sometimes giving people a sense of distance.She looks weak, but she is strong inside.There are not many words, and there is no contention in the heart.But once a decision is made, I will strive for the best.Li Ziding has no doubt that when this person's career is in full swing, if he wants to, he will quietly retire without nostalgia... He is really a man like water.

Li Ziding said: "Your appearance is not similar to his, but the charm is the same. After my friend passed away, his parents missed him and gave birth to three younger brothers in one go. But which one is not him... In fact, there is no one in the world who can be replaced by others."

"I see."

Ye Jianqiu nodded.

Li Ziding sighed and said, "Jianqiu, I can't deny that I am very happy to see you. You don't mind, do you?"

"No, you can make the king's heart happy without spending a penny, why not do it?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, Li Ziding stood up and said: "Jianqiu, if wars broke out, would you leave Qingyang?"

"No, this is my home."

Ye Jianqiu is not afraid of Zhanluan, he is waiting for Chaoge.

Li Ziding had no choice but to say: "I'm just an ordinary citizen, and no matter how much money I have in times of war, it's hard to protect myself. I've already arranged my own courtyard in Linyue City. If you want to leave Qingyang, go directly to Linyue City to find me." That is, I will definitely arrange for you properly. After all, it is the capital of the country, and it is also the safest place."

"Thank you."

Ye Jianqiu stood up and bowed solemnly to him.

Li Ziding smiled wryly: "Jianqiu, you are not used to those etiquettes, even I feel awkward for you."

Ye Jianqiu couldn't help but also smiled and said: "Oh, because of this, I almost never show up for the work of receiving customers on the farm, so as not to make people laugh."

"Then am I not honored?"

"That's right, you are treated like a VIP."

"Want to get a discount again?"

"Leave three points for the next shipment."

"Say something nicer."

"Brother Li is not only a distinguished guest, but also a handsome man."

"Make five points."

"Brother Li is personable, extraordinary, his face is like a powder, and his face is like a crown jade..."

"Stop! You have a golden mouth and silver teeth, and you want to pay me to death!"

The two looked at each other and laughed. With such good friends, why are they afraid of troubled times?

Just as Ye Jianqiu went out to send Li Zi to the carriage, the correspondent who was in charge of delivering the message rushed in and shouted anxiously: "Guan Ye, something is wrong, someone wants to rob the farm!"
