After getting the news from Kuai Liang, Zhang Xiu quietly left Xiangyang City and went to lumen mountain. When he arrived at the foot of lumen mountain, he did not disturb anyone in lumen Academy. He climbed the mountain quietly and went straight to Pang's house to visit Pang Degong.

In the study, Zhang Xiu meets Pang Degong.

Pang Shenggong said, "why did you come to fight in Xiangyang? And it came quietly. What's the matter? "

Zhang Xiu replied: "Kuai Liang wrote to me and specially recommended a group of talents for me to recruit. If you appear aboveboard in Xiangyang, I'm afraid it will cause Liu Biao's fear, so he went south quietly. Pass through lumen mountain and visit the teacher on the mountain. "

With a sigh of relief, Pang Degong said with a smile, "everything is good as a teacher. Now there are many things to do, not only the teaching in the Academy, but also some miscellaneous things on rice paper. It's busy, but it's full. "

Zhang xiudao: "don't worry, teacher. Pay attention to your health."

Pound said: "I'm in good health as a teacher. Now the sales of Xuan paper have gone to Jiangdong, Zhongyuan and even Jizhou. Businessmen from all over the country gathered and ordered rice paper one after another. "

Zhang Xiu was a little surprised.

The speed of sales promotion of Xuan paper is indeed very fast. In a short period of time, it has opened up the trade routes in the north.

Zhang Xiu reminded: "Xuan paper is a cornucopia, as long as the interests converge, it may attract the covet of all parties. Teachers and father-in-law, be careful. "

"Don't worry about that."

With a confident look on his face, Pang Degong stroked his beard and said, "only the most important people of Pang family and Huang family can make rice paper. Ordinary craftsmen have no access to the core secrets. "

"Even if they know that they have made rice paper from bamboo, they can't imitate it without formula and ideas."

"During this period, some people really covet it."

"It's just, it's all dealt with."

"In Xiangyang, the power of Pang family and Huang family, plus the presence of Kuai family, is enough to settle everything."

"Don't worry!"

There is absolute confidence in Pound's words.

This is the strength of the Pang family.

Zhang Xiu also laughed. He knew the strength of Pang family, Huang family and Kuai family, and once again said, "in addition to Xuan paper, other materials can also be used for experiments, such as mulberry bark, Broussonetia papyrifera bark, etc. Although we are guarding a golden mountain, we can't underestimate the wisdom of others, and we can't be complacent. Only through continuous research and development can we always lead the way. "

Pound said: "you don't have to worry about that. Your father-in-law is interested in this and has been thinking about it all the time. He also separately allocated a lot of money to reward the craftsmen for their improvement of rice paper. "

Zhang Xiu suddenly smiles.

He thought too much about it. Without his participation, everything could go on smoothly.

Zhang Xiu turned around and asked: "teacher, the sale of rice paper has made countless profits. In anyone's eyes, this is a golden mountain. Liu Biao is a herdsman in Jingzhou. Has he ever made rice paper

"He didn't dare. It's no use thinking about it."

Pang Degong said: "Liu Biao's foothold in Jingzhou is based on the power of Jingxiang people. Just like this, the power of Jingxiang clan is all over the country. Even if he is greedy, he can't do it. Once he reaches the bottom line of the big family, his position will be unstable. What's more, Liu Biao has a good reputation. He's not sure. He won't do it at will. "

"That's good!"

Zhang Xiu was also relieved.

With a wise look in his eyes, Pang Degong continued: "in fact, the business of Xuan paper is not only the Pang family, the Kuai family and the Huang family, but also the Cai family."

Zhang Xiu was surprised and said, "when did the Cai family come in?"

Pang Degong explained: "after the discussion between Chengyan and Laofu, in order to attract more strength, the two families each gave half of their profits to let the Cai family in. In this way, Xuan paper is jointly operated by the Cai family, Pang family, Huang family and Kuai family. "

"Even if Liu Biao has the mind and idea of seizing, he can't succeed."

"Unless Liu Biao dares to be the enemy of the four families in Jingzhou."

Pang Degong continued: "bringing in the Cai family will also help you to go south to Jingzhou in the future. With the support of the four families, Xiangyang City will not be fortified for you. "

Zhang Xiu said: "thank you, teacher!"

He was very grateful to Lord pound.

Although he was on the way to learn from Lord pound, he had nothing to say.

Better than any disciple.

With the strength of Pang Degong and Huang Chengyan, they are not afraid of the Cai family. In addition, the Kuai family can steadily suppress the Cai family and Liu Biao. The reason for bringing the Cai family in is also for him.

Pound said: "I didn't do anything as a teacher, just a little thing. Besides, with the energy of the Cai family, Xuan paper can be sold better. In fact, even if we split out 10% of the profits, we get much more than that. "

After a pause, pound changed the subject and said, "just a few days ago, Kong Ming came to say goodbye to me. Now, he has left Jingzhou. "Zhang Xiu eyebrows up, surprised: "Kong Ming left? Where did he go, teacher? "

"I don't know!"

Pound shook his head and said, "I asked Kong Ming where he was going. He said he wanted to go out and have a look. Now no one knows where he has gone. "

Zhang Xiu thought about it in her heart. Her eyes narrowed and she said in a deep voice: "Kong Ming has great ambition and is ready to help the world. Now Jingzhou is almost on this side. In such an atmosphere, he stayed in Jingzhou, there is no value, it is normal to leave. Next time I see Kong Ming, I'm afraid I'll see you on the battlefield. "

Pound said justly: "I hope Kong Ming can find the master of Ming Dynasty. I also mentioned that I would like Kong Ming to go to Nanyang County to help you like Shi Yuan. It's just that he didn't answer at all. "

"It's normal," Zhang said

Zhang Xiu has no hope for Zhuge Liang. Even without Huang Yueying, it will be quite difficult for him to recruit Zhuge Liang. After all, he is not from a good family.

What's more, there is Huang Yueying's story. With Zhuge Liang's arrogant temperament, it is impossible to stay under Zhang Xiu's command, and he will certainly leave.

Zhang Xiu said: "teacher, the war in the north is urgent. If the disciples have something important to do, they won't stay any longer. After visiting the talents recommended by Kuai Liang, I will go north to fight. "

Pound Fair: "you go to everything carefully, must not leak the whereabouts of information."

"I understand!"

Zhang Xiu nodded and answered.

He came and went quickly, but on this trip to lumen mountain, he got the most important news: Zhuge Liang left Jingzhou and entered his official career ahead of time.

In history, Zhuge Liang stayed in Xiangyang until Liu Bei entered the city. But now they are out of the mountain ahead of time. In this world of great controversy, there is one more variable.

However, Zhang Xiu is not afraid.

He has a foothold!

He has a considerable advantage, even if the next face of the storm, he also has enough strength to resist.

In this life, he has no fear of anyone.

In this life, when the world.
