Many things cannot be accomplished by just one person.

For example, moving mountains.

Even Yugong only exists in fables and legends. In reality, it is already amazing to be able to open a mountain road. It basically takes a lifetime of life. As for wanting to move the entire mountain away...

And there are many mountains in the south.

It is obviously impossible to move these mountains away by Zhuge Liang alone.

If Zhuge Liang wants to move mountains, he needs people, helpers, and people who need to move mountains with him.

Or let those "mountains" move away by themselves.

Zhuge Liang arrived in Nanzhong and saw the big surnames of various families. Then he preached relevant matters and conveyed the message, "Do you want to move mountains? Let's come together."

At the same time, these big surnames in Nanzhong also knew that if they followed Zhuge Liang, they would have to work.

Work hard, tiring, and even life.

So, is it worth it?

Meng Huo was thinking about this issue. He was not good at thinking, but he also understood that there were benefits and difficulties in this matter. It was really difficult for him to grasp whether there were many benefits or difficulties, so he found Cuan Li after the meeting.

If you judge people by their appearance, you will suffer a great loss. This is especially true when facing Cuan Li. Thinking that he is an irrestrained person may be rude and stupid. Hey, he is actually a Han Chinese, smart and cunning. If you think he is a Han Chinese, well, he is like an irresistible person, and he only seeks profit and does not pay attention to etiquette and law.

The Cuan family and the Meng family had a good relationship, so when Meng Huo found Cuan Li, Cuan Li did not say he was hypocritical or pretended to be stupid. He just invited Meng Huo to sit down for a meal while frowning and discussing.

"I'm afraid I can't just look at the things on the surface..." Cuan Li said slowly.

Meng Huo held the water and sniffed, "I think so too."

Speaking of Nanzhong Food, it seems that the song of white pole rods will be played, or various insects, corpses, large and small ants, etc. However, in fact, if you can eat serious food, how many people will like those foods that don’t look serious? Why do they all have crispy chicken smells? You must know that the real thing is not Bei Ye, but the anti-camera master following Bei Ye.

South Central is short of salt.

In order to allow the body to intake normal electrolytes, people in Nanzhong chose acid.

In order to remove dampness and detoxify, people in the South China later became addicted to spicy food.

Therefore, the eating habits of a place are not chosen casually, just like the future direction of a family, nor can they be chosen casually.

Whether it is the Meng family, the Cuan family, or other surnames such as the Lu family, when they moved from the Central Plains of China to Nanzhong, they basically carried the mark of a loser. They may think they were natives of Nanzhong and local rulers, but in fact they were all losers in the early Chinese regime competition.

Just like the barbarians, some of them are like losers who fought for territory with Yan and Huang back then.

These southern middle surnames chose the third way to escape after surrender and death.

So, what about now?

"The school is a good thing, but there is nothing to learn about those scriptures. The main thing is the techniques, the methods of plowing fields, digging the mountains and digging the soil..." Cuan Li said in a deep voice, "What can scriptures do? If we want our children to go there, we mainly learn techniques..."

"Yes, I think so too." Meng Huo nodded, then grabbed a piece of dried meat and chewed it.

Cuan Li's eyes stayed on Meng Huo for a moment, then said nothing, and took a piece of dried meat and started chewing it.

Most of the dried meat in Nanzhong is smoked rather than pickled.

It is smoked with pine and cypress leaves, and it tastes like pine and cypress...

The relationship between Cuan and Meng was good, so Cuan Li also knew that Meng Huo had a bad habit, that was, when someone was using his brain for him, Meng Huo himself was not willing to use his brain.

Just like it was just now.

So sometimes, when Meng Huo needs to use his brain or when Meng Huo needs to express something, it is necessary to make it clear that if Meng Huo goes around, he will often circumvent himself to death.

Cuan Li chose to say directly. After chewing a strip of meat, he patted the debris stained on his hands, "I said, what do you think?"

Meng Huo then stopped eating, and patted the debris on his hands, and applied the stained oil on the table. "That Zhuge, well, it should be said that it was sent by the Cavalry. Of course, it was the Cavalry's plan. We actually have nothing to choose now..."

Cuan Li nodded and said, "It's true, continue, continue."

Unless it is a completely irreconcilable conflict of interest, most of the time, politics is not a life-and-death battle, but a mutual compromise.

In history, the rebellion of the South Central was mostly bewitched by Sun Quan. After all, when Sun Quan was preparing to stab Guan Yu chrysanthemum, he also needed to consider a way out. What if he didn't stab him to death? What if Guan Yu died, Liu Bei would not refusal to retaliate? What if Lu Meng couldn't stop it? Then the Shu Han army marched eastward and the rebellion of the South Central in the rear could give some conditions to ease some sides.

Well, that's right, Sun Quan valued Lu Meng, not Lu Xun at that time.

So, overall, most people in the Southern Central did not treat it as a serious meal, either in the Eastern Han Dynasty or the Three Kingdoms period. Generally speaking, there is a kind that is considered a bite, and it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t.

『Unless, unless...』 Meng Huo touched his beard with some greasy hands, 『Unless all the major surnames in the South Central Committee unite, they are qualified to discuss with the cavalry...』

When Meng Huo said this, he looked at Cuan Li and couldn't help but laugh.

wry smile.

"However, it seems like you can give it a try."

『Try it? If it is...』

"Try it, if it doesn't work, what if it works?"

"Well? Then, give it a try?"

The two immediately started to run and contact each other.

…(〒︿〒)…

On the other hand, Zhuge Liang was smiling.

"Entertainment, you just know the lord's strategy with the people of Nanzhong..." Faping said on the side, "Are you not afraid of these people joining together... I heard that someone has started to contact each other..."

Faping is Fazheng's consul. In summary, he should be the son of Uncle Fazheng. He is slightly younger than Zhuge and has not officially become an official. This time, Fazheng recommended it to Zhuge, allowing him to take on some miscellaneous things under Zhuge and serve him. Of course, the most important thing is to learn from Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang did not refuse Fazheng's kindness.

In history, Fa Zheng and Zhuge Liang were not CPs, and there was no difference between one right and one evil, one black and one white. Movies and TV made Fa Zheng and Zhuge become CPs, but it was driven by interests. After all, those screenwriters would please anyone, just like an information cocoon.

Both of them are highly emotionally wise and pragmatic, and their methods of doing things are slightly different.

Fa Zheng is vengeful and sharp-tongued, and hurts his colleagues, but he dare not act rashly in front of Zhuge Liang. Those who were bullied by Fa Zheng ran to Zhuge Liang to report. Zhuge Liang, who has always claimed to be impartial in law enforcement, spoke for Fa Zheng, just comforting the victims, and did not express any problems in his handling of Fa Zheng.

Generally speaking, Fazheng is to not only cause trouble, but also save face. After Zhuge Liang finished the matter, he would take care of his inferiority. The two had a very different style of conduct, but they could consciously let each other avoid each other and live in peace. Liu Da'er pulled one with his left hand and one with his right hand, so happy that his legs could not be closed.

Think about it, if any of them had the character of Guan Yu, they would probably have the power to turn the world upside down...

Of course, in history, Fa Zheng died early, and it is difficult to predict whether it will be the same as Li Yan in the future. However, after Zhuge Liang's defeat at Yiling, he expressed his feelings of "Fa Xiaozhi and Zhi are there", which at least shows that Zhuge Liang did not regard Fa Zheng as the enemy for many things. After all, Zhuge would not say anything about "If the Zheng Fang is still there".

Therefore, in history, Zhuge Liang viewed Fazheng as an important colleague who could even save the crisis situation.

And at present, there is no competitive relationship between Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng.

After all, the world today is much bigger than the corner of Sichuan and Sichuan in history...

If the cake is big and enough to eat, there will naturally be no dispute. Unless it is a brainless person, he feels that even if he can't eat it, he will not allow others to eat it. Obviously, Zhuge Liang and Fa Zheng are not such people.

Moreover, Zhuge Liang also felt that among the people in Nanzhong, there were stupid people, but there were also smart people.

At least not a brainless person.

The cooperation between the ethnic groups in South China proposed by Faping is not completely impossible.

But first of all, there must be an indispensable prerequisite, which is to have a leader who is prestigious enough to coordinate and balance the conflicts of interest between various tribes and major surnames...

Or in other words, if Nanzhong wants to negotiate with Zhuge and Fei Qian behind Zhuge, the first thing to do is to form an alliance first and produce such a character.

"It's okay... do something for me..." Zhuge Liang picked up his pen, slowly wrote something, then put down his pen, gently blew the ink trace that had just been written, and handed it to Faping, "Please invite someone to the banquet..."

"Meng's son?" Faping looked at the name on the invitation and was stunned for a moment, then seemed to think of something, "Is it necessary to do it..."

Zhuge Liang smiled and waved his hand, "Go and bring the flag of the carriage and horse."

Faping bowed his head and bowed, "I understand!"

…(o?▽?)o…

Meng Huo was confused when he received the invitation.

Then when Meng Huo was still thinking about the invitation, Cuan Li received the news and lived in the nearest place, so he rushed over immediately, "I heard that you were invited by Zhuge? Why?"

"What's the reason?" Meng Huo's eyes widened.

Cuan Li frowned and looked at Meng Huo, who still opened his eyes wide.

The two looked at each other for a moment.

Cuan Li found a seat and sat down, was silent for a while, waved his hand and said, "I mean, why did Zhuge Zheng invite you?"

"Yes, why did Zhuge invite me when he was engaged in the business?" Meng Huo was still staring at Cuan Li.

Cuan Li took a breath, speechless.

"You said," Meng Huo flipped through the invitation, as if there were some secrets hidden on the invitation, "I'm going... or not?"

Cuan Li said in a deep voice: "If you really say it to me, you'd better not go."

Meng Huo said oh, then said, "What if Zhuge blamed me for this?"

"You just said you fell, got sick, you got sick, anyway, you're looking for a reason," Cuan Li stood up, "Unless Zhuge is engaged in the work and invites other people to join... Otherwise...

When Meng Huo saw Cuan Li walking out, he asked again: "Uh, then if Zhuge was engaged in invitation, would you go?"

Cuan Li paused for a moment, "If you invite alone, don't go. If you invite together, you will."

Meng Huo was stunned.
