Three Kingdoms

If you want to build a house, you must first find a craftsman.

Now that Fei Qian has an official identity, he can naturally call on official craftsmen.

The craftsman in charge of this aspect in Xiangyang has a surname of Huang and a name of Dou, which has no characters. His rank is quite high, and he belongs to the level of master craftsman.

Fortunately, in the Han Dynasty, calling people by their first and last names was not popular, otherwise Fei Qian estimated that he might not be able to help laughing, especially if it matched Huang Dajiang's short and round figure...

It turns out that Huang Dajiang shied away and said that there was no official order, and then Fei Qian directly said that he would pay for it personally. If he didn't do it, he would find someone else. Then Huang Dajiang agreed without hesitation.

Now that the autumn harvest has passed, many farmers are already relaxing at home. Many people are willing to go out and buy some energy in exchange for some money, so the handyman does not have to worry about no one coming, and for those more professional projects, the craftsman only needs a few apprentices to take care of them. Just check it and you'll be done with it. It's basically not difficult at all. It's purely an opportunity to make extra money. You'd be stupid not to do it.

Mr. Huang walked around the foot of Lushan Mountain twice before deciding on the location to build the wooden house.

Although Fei Qian didn't understand it very well, he thought it looked good at first glance. A small earth bag is slightly higher than the ground. The stream flowing down from Lushan Mountain flows around the earth bag not far away. It is very convenient to collect water for daily life, and there is no need to worry about the problem of high water levels in the rainy season.

It's better to be in the Han Dynasty. You can build whatever you want on such a large piece of land. You only need to go to the government to prepare a case and write a document. Fei Qian took out the newly obtained seal of separation and banged it, symbolically. After paying a small land fee, this piece of land was counted in Fei Qian's name.

It's not that Fei Qian is using his power for personal gain, it's because the land itself belongs to the mountains, is some distance away from the city, and its value is not high. Moreover, I heard that it has been approved by Pang Degong, so it's just a small favor. .

Now that we have decided to build a wooden house at the foot of the mountain, we no longer need to look for any houses in the natural city.

Fei Qian didn't bother to see the ugly, short-sighted scribes, so he and Uncle Fu spent the past few days running around Lushan in the morning and back in the evening.

As for dianmao?

Haha, according to the rank, if you are under the governor, you should not drive. Anyway, as long as Liu Biao doesn't say anything, no one can care about Fei Qian...

Originally Fei Qian only planned to build a wooden house, but after confirming the construction cost with Master Huang, he discovered that the price of building houses in the Han Dynasty was really cheap, so he simply expanded the scale of the building.

Anyway, because of this special status, the materials can be calculated according to the purchase price from the public treasury. They can be pulled from the Xiangyang warehouse. There is no need to wait for the felled wood to dry before using it like ordinary people. They are all well-formed materials and can be used directly. It’s on the shelves, it’s much more convenient.

Fei Qian didn't know much about the construction industry, so he simply left it all to Huang Dajiang. When he and Uncle Fu came over every day, he basically didn't interfere with Huang Dajiang's work by gesticulating. Instead, he found a secluded place by himself to think about Pang Degong. The remarks.

Fei Qian was not in a hurry to visit Pang Degong again. He hadn't thought clearly about it yet, and he wouldn't be able to help much and would be considered impetuous. The last time they met, Mr. Pang Degong deliberately woke him up once, so Fei Qian felt that he also needed to adjust before going.

When he arrived at the construction site today and greeted Master Huang, Fei Qian found a place by himself, untied the carriage harness, and asked Uncle Fu to take the horses to find some water plants, while he found big rocks by the stream. Sat down.

The stream is gurgling and rushing, and the warm autumn sun shines on your body, which is very pleasant.

But in Fei Qian's heart, he has been turbulent these past few days and it is difficult to calm down.

Fei Qian has been thinking about the word "Tao" that Pang Degong said a few days ago, and found that this may be a great difference between the people of the Han Dynasty and the people of later generations.

If we look at the number of people who have purely mastered general knowledge, then later generations will naturally have a wider level of education and more people. But if we measure it according to this "Tao", maybe there were people in the Han Dynasty who had their own "Tao" On the contrary, it is hard to say that there are more than those in later generations.

Fei Qian recalled his experiences in later generations, and almost none of them truly formed his own "Tao".

When you are a child, you may often be teased by adults and say some lofty words about how you will become a member of this family or that family when you grow up. However, these are just like jokes and are just for fun. Adults will not take them seriously, not to mention that they are still ignorant children. .

When they get older and go to elementary school or middle school, how many people will think of their childhood dreams? Maybe some, but the vast majority of them were indoctrinated under the red flag to become the successor of a certain person and work for a certain cause for the rest of their lives...

Then go to college. Logically speaking, you should at least find the direction of your life in college. However, Fei Qian searched carefully in his memories and found that even the college philosophy teacher followed the textbook every day and did not even mention this, which was originally the biggest motivation in life. Source, not to mention teachers of other courses...

And what did you do most in college?

Play.

Then, when I entered the society, I found a job that was not in the same line as my major, and I had no interest in work. I just hung around like this, until now in the Han Dynasty...

A few days ago, when I was listening to the public lecture at Xun's house, Fei Qian felt inexplicably shocked when he heard Xun Yu put forward the "Four Virtues" on the stage. Thinking about it now, maybe that feeling at that time was not just for Xun Yu's Four Virtues, but he faintly discovered the biggest gap between himself and this group of top people...

Recalling the characters who shined in the Three Kingdoms along the way from Luoyang to Xiangyang, the general Yifeng Feiqian was naturally incomparable with the marksmanship he learned from Zhang Liao. Speaking of civilians alone, like Cai Yong , Liu Hong, two great masters in academia, high-level officials like Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and people like Xun Yu and Guo Jia, who has not established his own "Tao" early on and worked hard for it? struggle?

Even Zao Zhi, who was bullied and teased by him, was determined to achieve the "Way of Farming and Mulberry Farming", wasn't he?

And what about yourself?

mix.

The habits brought over from later generations have not changed at all.

Although I can still recall the sudden question "What is your ambition" that night, but in actual behavior, avoidance still accounts for the most part.

If Cai Yong and Pang Degong hadn't woken up, maybe I still wouldn't know where my biggest shortcoming is...

Master Cai Yong said that his Tao is not suitable to be taught to me, but he hopes that Mr. Pang De can teach it. What does he mean?

Do you think my slipperiness is inconsistent with modesty?

Or is it that my escape from individuality is inconsistent with perseverance?

Or is it both, or some other reason?

well……

How do I find my own "Tao"?

What are my strengths?

What are my weaknesses?

What on earth am I going to do in this turbulent dynasty?

Where am I headed?

Fei Qian sat by the Lushan stream, thinking hard...
