Lan Tian concentrated on waving the copper scissors. When he heard Zhang Fei's familiar voice, he straightened up and turned his head in surprise: "Why are you here? Gaoyuan, take General Zhang and the military advisor to the city to rest first. I'll wash the mud on my legs."

Come."

Zhang Fei replied: "It doesn't matter, we'll wait for you. Anyway, it's still early to leave for dinner."

Zhuge Liang held up his fan and said with a smile: "I have been fighting the rebellion in the south for the past two months. Yide's appetite is not very good, so it is good to come to Wuxundun."

Seeing that Zhang Fei was so naive, Lan Tian said to Gao Yuan: "Ask someone to prepare some food and wine to satisfy General Zhang's craving."

"Wei." Gao Yuan responded with cupped fists.

"Ziyu, you don't want to cook anymore?" Zhang Fei was a little disappointed.

"Some skills are not worth mentioning. I have taught many people now. Do you want to learn Yide?" Lan Tian asked.

In addition to learning agricultural knowledge from Lan Tian, ​​some of the fifty students selected by Li Yang were also interested in cooking, so Lan Tian generously taught them some home-cooked dishes.

"I'm used to using Zhangba Snake Spear, but I'm not used to holding kitchen utensils..." Zhang Fei shook his head and finished, Zhuge Liang and Lan Tian both smiled.

It was almost noon, and the scorching sun in the sky climbed to its highest point. Lantian wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked out of the rice field. After cleaning the mud at the edge of the field, he rode back to Linwu County with Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang.

Gao Yuan knew that Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang were both distinguished guests, so he brought Li Yang back from Xindengzhuang to help with the cooking. This fellow Lantian man was outstanding in both agriculture and cooking skills.

After Lantian came to Wu County, he lived in the county captain's house and worked together with Gan Ning.

In the past year, Lantian has directly delegated power and focused its main energy on farming.

County government affairs were still handled by County Magistrate Li Zhao and County Magistrate Zhang Chang, defense was left to Gan Ning, and Gao Shun was still responsible for immigration management in Xinye.

Under such simple operations, the people of Linwu County can live and work in peace and contentment.

Lan Tian put on new clothes and came out to meet each other. Zhuge Liang met him and praised him: "Just now we walked through the streets and alleys and saw that the people are happy and the public order is good. Linwu County seems to be prosperous. Ziyu has political talents and will shoulder heavy responsibilities for the Lord in the future."

.”

"I actually didn't do anything. I left the military and political affairs to others. I only occasionally handled some important matters. Military advisors must not be so flattering." Lan Tian remained modest.

Zhuge Liang pointed at him and smiled: "This is exactly what a great talent does. Wouldn't it be exhausting to do everything by yourself? Ziyu really knows this way."

Lan Tianxin said that I could be praised like this even if I did nothing but manage things?

At this time, Zhang Fei suddenly asked: "Ziyu, Gao Yuan said you are looking for male-sterile rice. What does this mean? Are there male and female rice grains?"

Zhuge Liang didn't know much about agriculture, so he waited curiously for Lan Tian's answer.

Lantian nodded and explained: "The flowers of most plants are hermaphroditic. There are stamens and pistils in the flowers. Bees, butterflies and other insects help pollinate them, and then they germinate and bear fruit..."

Zhang Fei seemed to have opened the door to a new world. He said in surprise: "It turns out that little flowers are so magical..."

"Ziyu, you are busy in the rice fields. Could it be that man is interfering with the sexes?" Zhuge Liang seemed to understand something.

"Well, through artificial improvement, the seeds cultivated will become better and better, and the yield will naturally increase." Lantian said.

Zhuge Liang raised his hands and praised: "Ziyu is really a genius in the world, Liang is convinced..."

"What's that male sterile strain?" Zhang Fei asked, scratching his head, because he felt that it didn't seem to be a good word.

"That is a special kind of rice, which is very important for cultivating high-yielding rice seeds..." Lan Tianxin said that if I took out Mr. Yuan's thesis, even Zhuge Military Advisor would not be able to understand it, because the span of knowledge is too large.

These theoretical knowledge are not important to people of this era.

"Oh..." Zhang Fei seemed to understand.

Just before dinner started, Gan Ning came back from busy with military affairs. He walked inside and said loudly: "Sir, the martial arts hall has been set up according to your request. Do you want to know when the class will start..."

"Commander, General Zhang..." Gan Ning walked in and found Zhuge Liang and Zhang Fei arriving. He immediately clasped his fists and saluted them.

"General Gan, please sit down. I heard that Linwu doesn't pick up things on the road now, and it's all thanks to the general." Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

Gan Ning quickly said: "Master taught me well, I just followed his orders."

Zhuge Liang knew about Gan Ning's situation, and even heard that he had fought with Zhao Yun and Guan Yu. His bravery was not to mention, but such a rude military man was actually controlled by Lan Tian.

"Can military advisors be effective?" Lan Tian asked, changing the subject.

"They are all a mob, and those Yue people surrendered before I even made any moves." Zhang Fei said disdainfully.

Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "Guiyang has been established as a county for hundreds of years, and the Baiyue and Han people have been integrated for many years. It is just because of conflicts in language, interests, etc., and the Yue people often rely on force to show off their violence. When encountering people like Yide, they have to be soft and order.

It will take some time for him to be convinced, so he can only do it in a subtle way, with both kindness and power."

Lan Tian responded: "You can't just be gentle, otherwise the interests of the Han people will be damaged. Xingba implemented a policy of treating everyone equally in Linwu, and I think the effect is pretty good."

"General Gan still has the ability to pacify barbarians? Liang needs to ask for more advice." Zhuge Liang said with his hands in hand.

Gan Ning did not dare to accept Zhuge Liang's courtesy. He immediately stood up with clasped fists and said: "This matter is not Gan Ning's fault. Without the strategy of using barbarians to control barbarians, Linwu would not have the harmonious ethnic relations it has today."

"Use barbarians to control barbarians? Ziyu has a clever plan that should not be kept secret. Can he help Liang solve his doubts?" Zhuge Liang turned around and asked again.

Lan Tian smiled slightly and said: "The Baiyue border people still live in rice and fish in soup. They farm by fire and are far behind the Han people in production. Conflicts are inevitable in the process of national integration. We can use leaders who are broad-minded and knowledgeable to help them."

Assist local officials in handling ethnic conflicts, so that governance will be smoother."

"Wonderful, military advisor, I've told my elder brother a long time ago that Lan Ziyu's head is different from other people's." This time, even Rang Fei understood.

"If it weren't for Yide's greed, Liang almost missed a clever plan. You can drink as much as you want later." Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

"Aren't you going back to Chen County today?" Zhang Fei asked in surprise.

"I'll come back tomorrow," Zhuge Liang said.

"The military advisor is wise."

A banquet was held for Zhuge Liang and Zhang Fei, and Lan Tian called Gao Shun to accompany them. Although this guy didn't drink, he managed to eat meat, but he couldn't forget this loyal man.

During the banquet, everyone was chatting happily. Zhuge Liang remembered that Gan Ning mentioned the martial arts hall before, and asked: "Ziyu, what did General Gan mean by the martial arts hall?"

After hearing this, Gao Shun's expression suddenly changed, and he thought to himself, "If you set up a general academy, if Liu Bei finds out, won't you be jealous?"

Gao Shun kept winking at him, but Lan Tian said frankly: "I recently taught fifty farmer apprentices, and they played a role in promoting planting techniques, so I was inspired to set up a martial arts hall in the camp.
