The Pension Plan Expands from the Three Kingdoms to the Heavens

Chapter 49 Guo Jia said that he also wanted to lose face

"Liang, you have always been smart. Can you tell me whether my brother should become an official?" Zhuge Jin looked at his second brother. He has always been precocious, mature and very smart. Many of his ideas often make him feel fresh and new, so Sometimes Zhuge Jin also attaches great importance to his views and insights.

The thin and young Zhuge Liang thought for a while, raised his head and said to his elder brother, "Brother, the world is in chaos now. Although Liu Bei and Liu Duwei are here to guard Langya, they have defeated Cao Cao and Prime Minister Cao's troops several times. The country is considered quite powerful." For the sake of stability, Langya is located at the junction of Xu, Qing and Yanzhou. The forces are mixed and it has always been regarded as a battleground for military strategists. When I passed by the market today, I found that the price of food has risen again. It can be seen that the government intends to collect money and food. , Judging from the current situation, I am afraid that within a year, there may be a big battle in Langya!"

When he said this, Zhuge Liang paused, looked at Zhuge Jin's encouraging eyes and continued, "It is definitely not a good idea for my Zhuge family to stay here. Liaodong lives alone overseas, far away from the war in the Central Plains, not to mention the current Pingzhou Muxiang Pinghou Gongsun Lu He opened up trade extensively, educated the barbarians, and appeased the refugees. Two years ago, he even built a fire pit and a cellar. It can be seen that this is a sage with great virtues. Under his management, Liaodong has become a paradise, the country is prosperous and the people are safe. Our Zhuge family Liang has no objection to moving his family to Liaodong."

Zhuge Jin touched the short beard under his chin and nodded. In fact, he himself was inclined to settle in Liaodong. Although his uncle Zhuge Xuan had been appointed as the governor of Yuzhang, he was actually squeezed out by Yuan Shu's subordinates and generals. The core decision-making circle is just "distributed to the frontier".

Maybe there will be other changes before he officially takes office. What's more, I have heard of Yuan Shu's reputation. He really doesn't look like a heroic master. After he defected to his uncle.I'm afraid I'll have to serve as an official under him, but I'm afraid there won't be any chance to get ahead and revitalize the family business!

Nowadays, it is rare to find a noble and capable prince who knows his talent and sends people to recruit him.Zhuge Jin may be able to show his talents in this troubled world, and when the time comes, he may be able to honor his ancestors and revitalize his family business.

Well, I decided to go to Liaodong with my family.

Even though Zhuge Jin was a very smooth person, he was more decisive when he made a decision. On the same day, he went directly to the place where Guo Jia said he was staying and expressed his willingness to serve in Liaodong.

Guo Jia and others were overjoyed.

In particular, Guo Jia said that he also wanted to be shameless. He went out to recruit people, and when they didn't agree, he kidnapped the whole family. It was too damaging to his reputation. Guo Jia said that he was not such a person.

Now that Zhuge Jin is so sensible, there is no need for a backup operation.

Soon Zhuge Jin, with the help of Gongsun Han's caravan, sold his belongings directly on the spot, took his two younger brothers and several servants as well as some jewelry and books and boarded Gongsun Han's merchant ship.

After the transaction with Liu Bei, the old man Gongsun Han did not stay long and began to return the same way.

Liu Bei and his second brother Guan Yu watched the merchant ship slowly leave the dock. Suddenly, he felt a pain in his heart, as if something important had left him forever.

Guan Yu on the side looked at Liu Bei with a bitter look on his face with concern: "Brother, what's wrong?"

Liu Bei shook his head with some doubts, "No problem." He raised his head and looked at Guan Yu and asked, "Where is Yide, didn't you ask him to come with Brother Boran today?"

"The third brother said that he didn't want to accompany this guy who only cares about money and does business with Lu Bu, so he took Bu Qu to find the lair of the Taishan bandits!"

"This third brother, do you think you are short of money in business? Why can't you compare shopping?" He shook his head, seeming to be amused by the childishness of his third brother.

Although Liu Bei said this, he did not reprimand Zhang Fei, which shows that he did not have no grudges about this matter in his heart.

However, neither Gongsun Lu nor Gongsun Han had any interest in caring about his spiritual journey. If you don't have money, of course I will find someone with money.

The two of them talked as they returned from the pier the same way they came.

The words were divided into two parts, and soon the merchant ship sailed away from the offshore and came to the warship of the Liaodong Navy. Gongsun Lu considered himself a low-key and meaningful person. He didn't like to show off his wealth even when he was rich, so he asked the old man to tell him every time. Smaller merchant ships were used to transport goods on the shore, while the navy's warships were parked offshore and waiting. The three Zhuge brothers had lived inland since childhood. They had seen such a tall ship there, and they immediately opened their mouths. The boss, who had opened his eyes, got on the big ship and looked at the elite soldiers and sophisticated crossbows, trebuchets and other armaments on the deck. Zhuge Jin had one more comment about Gongsun Lu in his heart, saying that he had great ambitions.

The fleet did not stop and continued towards the next stop, Guangling.

At night, Gongsun Lu appeared quietly on the deck, and Guo Jia stood behind him without saying a word.

"How do you feel?" Gongsun Lu asked Zhuge Jin.

"A talent that can be made has a bright future. With a little tempering, it can be regarded as a national scholar, but?"

Guo Jia did not continue. He still felt that although Zhuge Jin was a talented person, he could go alone or go to conquer the conquests before others. Why did the lord go in person?
Guo Jia didn't continue to speak, he was still thinking.

Although my own lord is very unconventional at times, he is still quite serious about some important matters.

Whether it's against Qianzhao or against Gongsun Du, be prepared and prepared.

But this time, Guo Jia couldn't tell.

Gongsun Lu ignored him, but turned to the left to look behind a mast on the deck and said, "You kid, do you just like peeking so much?"

Guo Jia was stunned. Although he had practiced internal skills, he was still lacking in skills after all, and his five senses were not as sensitive as Gongsun Lu. When he looked back, he saw Zhuge Liang hiding behind the mast, tilting his head and looking at himself.

Perhaps because he was called out by Gongsun Lu, the young man blushed a little. He quickly came out and replied, "Liang came here first. Liang didn't peek. Young Master misunderstood!"

Zhuge Liang did not lie. During the day, after the three brothers boarded the Liaodong warship, Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Jun were probably surprised by the majesty and tallness of this big ship.

But Zhuge Liang was more surprised. Although Zhuge Liang had never been to the sea and saw few ships, he had read a lot of books since he was a child. When his father Zhuge Gui was still the magistrate of Taishan County, he had read the official The "Minutes of Building Ships" in the workshop's inventory records the development and basic design of ships in the Han Dynasty.

The largest floor ship recorded by the Han Dynasty was not as big as the warship underfoot today, and the shape design of the floor ship in the book was completely different from this pointed warship.

This warship is huge, and how did the Marquis of Xiangping, who was far away from the Central Plains, build a ship of this style.All this aroused the curiosity of the young man Zhuge Liang.

So I was wandering around on the deck alone at night, wanting to take a closer look at the ship, but I didn't expect to see Guo Jia and Gongsun Lu talking on the deck.

Zhuge Liang raised his head and glanced at Gongsun Lu.

He recognized this person as one of the two young men who accompanied Guo Jia to visit him a few days ago.

Originally, he thought that Gongsun Lu was a guard or Guo Jia's retainer, but just now he saw the two talking and their gestures. Although he didn't hear what they were talking about, he could see Guo Jia's respect for Gongsun Lu. Polite attitude.

This person's status should be above Guo Jia.

Gongsun Lu didn't talk nonsense to this kid. The current Zhuge Liang was not the future Zhuge Wolong who knew everything about the world, so he dismissed him with a few words.

Guo Jia couldn't help but laugh a little when he saw Gongsun Lu tricking Zhuge Liang away like a child.

This little master of ours is only in his early fifteens this year, which is only one year older than the boy from the Zhuge family. Not only is he much taller, but he also feels like he talks like an old man.

"Feng Xiao, is the college built for Mr. Kang Cheng almost completed?" Gongsun Lu asked Guo Jia with an expression on his face.

Guo Jia was stunned for a moment, but quickly replied, "It should be soon. Construction started after Kang Chenggong first came to Xiangping, and it's been almost two months."

The Kangcheng they mentioned was Zheng Xuan and Zheng Kangcheng.

That is Yuan Shao's master, the one who commented on Gongsun Lu, "The sage of Lu is like a unicorn in Liaodong. Although he is far away, he is surrounded by Beizhou!"
