"Brother, what are you doing?"
Cao Ang solemnly handed the two volumes of books into Cao Shuo's hands, and then gave extremely serious instructions.
"What I want to tell you to do, brother, is related to these two books."
"Starting from tomorrow, you no longer need to go to the government office to help, and you no longer need to worry about other chores. You can devote yourself to studying these two books."
"Read it every day and read it through all the time. I hope you can understand its meaning in the shortest possible time."
Seeing my brother taking things seriously.
Cao Shuo would never dare to neglect.
With a serious face, he took the book from Cao Ang with both hands and carefully opened one of the volumes.
Only briefly read one page.
Cao Shuo couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Some people opened their mouths in confusion, and the whole person seemed to be very confused, and many asked in confusion.
"Brother, are the contents recorded in this book related to millet?"
Cao Ang nodded slightly.
He patted Cao Shuo on the shoulder, and then explained in an extremely serious manner with his face still tense.
"The book you are reading now is about millet, and the other one is about wheat. The book records how to improve the millet and wheat we are growing now and expand the grain output per acre."
Cao Ang only mentioned one of its functions.
Cao Shuo felt horrified in his heart.
Although he is still young, he is still a young adult who will soon add his first name, not to mention that in this age, men are already precocious.
Following Xun Yu, I learned something to some extent. I didn't say that I became a talent immediately, but at least I became more mature than before.
So Cao Ang just finished speaking.
He then understood how precious these two books were and how powerful their effects were.
If you follow your brother's instructions.
You can read through the content in the book, memorize and understand it, and then apply it to reality.
That is definitely a good thing that benefits the country and the people, and benefits the people. Not even talking about these lofty goals, even if it only affects the Cao family, it still has a decisive effect.
But the elder brother entrusted these two things into his own hands so easily.
Cao Shuo instantly felt that the originally cold cover became extremely hot.
…
"Brother, these... these two books are too precious. How about you keep them personally? I can just borrow them from you every day and read them."
When Cao Ang heard this, he couldn't help but shook his head.
"I am also a busy person. If I am not at home for ten and a half days, then you will have wasted a great time. It will delay things too much."
"What's more, you are my biological brother. Although these two things are precious, I have nothing to worry about in your hands. You just need to keep them properly."
"I will allocate a special force to protect your safety. What's more, if you come with me to live in Puyang County, Dongjun in the future, no one can touch you even if you stay on our own territory."
"You only need to carry it with you every day and never show it to anyone except those who are qualified to see these two books. You can guarantee that the treasure will not be lost."
Cao Ang is the son of Cao's family.
In the minds of these younger brothers and sisters at home, he is extremely tall.
That's why my brother has said so firmly.
Cao Shuo will not refuse anymore.
Instead, he held the two books in his arms and nodded with an extremely solemn expression.
"Don't worry, brother, I will keep these two books with you day and night, and I will never let you down!"
…
After agreeing to this task.
Cao Shuo suddenly felt worried again.
He opened the book again and randomly found a page in the middle. He looked at the dense text on it, as well as the content that he knew a single word, but when combined into a sentence, he had difficulty understanding the meaning.
I couldn't help but scratch my head.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Cao Shuo finally asked with some hesitation: "Brother, if you ask me to read the contents of the book, I will naturally strictly follow your instructions."
"It's just that I'm worried that I'm a little stupid and don't have any extraordinary talents or talents. Even if I memorize the above words backwards and forwards, if I still fail to understand the deep meaning, wouldn't my brother's hard work be in vain?"
"What's more, when I think that this is a food plan that will eventually be implemented in the fields, I can't help but panic!"
"You have entrusted me with such precious things. If I end up with no results, I feel a little panicked when I think about it."
In fact, from these words.
It can be seen that Cao Shuo is a relatively honest person.
Feeling that he was not good enough, he simply confessed to Cao Ang.
What if it were someone a little bit more of a thieves?
Regardless of whether it works or not, I will pat my chest and agree to it first. Even if I don't get anything done in the end, I can at least get by for a while.
And now Cao Ang needs it.
He is just an honest and loyal person.
…
So after a slight change of mind.
The tense expression on Cao Ang's face disappeared in an instant, and was replaced by a little smile.
"Ah Shuo, there is no need to be afraid, and there is no need to be afraid of difficulties. As the saying goes, if you read a book a hundred times, its meaning will appear by itself."
"If these two books are profound and difficult to understand, then you should spend more time and read them several times. As long as you are willing to work hard and master them, you will already understand some basic things."
"As for you worrying about yourself, even if you master it, it will be difficult to practice it in the fields..."
Speaking of which.
Cao Ang paused for a moment.
Then he wrote the word "Zao Zhi" on the table with his hand.
"Previously, I asked Wen Ruo to select another person to serve as the Ding Tao Order, in order to transfer Zao Zhi to participate in this matter. This person is a man of real talent and knowledge, and he also knows a little about farming."
"With these two books in your hands, you can take out some contents to discuss with Zao Zhi, and let him lead you to practice the contents of the books."
"Read it yourself and listen to Zao Zhi's understanding. You should also go to the fields from time to time and personally sow improved crops."
"In that case, what else do you have to worry about?"
…
That's right.
This is the framework of Cao Ang's basic idea.
The book was in his brother's hands. If he felt that he didn't understand something or what was the next step, he would write it down and ask Zao to study it together.
Although this slightly delays the progress.
But at least it's very safe.
It's not that Cao Ang didn't do things grandly, he had to be secretive, and he had to be so mysterious.
The world is really in chaos right now, and there are always dozens of forces.
If these two tomes are blindly leaked, it will not only be of no benefit to the people of the world, but will also intensify the scale of the power struggle.
It is even possible that the chaos of the late Han Dynasty, which was originally going to be greatly shortened by his arrival, continued to be prolonged due to the spread of this thing.
That merit is really going to be wiped out!
Only after the Cao family swept across the world and wiped out all other forces could they become a unified empire and fully implement improved crops throughout the country.
Now it can only develop within its own power.
…
After receiving some comfort from his brother.
And knowing that there will be someone to guide and help you complete this matter.
Cao Shuo's heart suddenly relaxed.
During this period of time, when he was helping out in the government office, he also had several interactions with Zaozhi, who was Dingtao Ling.
Although I don't know if he has great talent or great ability, it is obvious that he can do practical things.
With him helping me, it won't be difficult.
"Uh-huh!"
Wrapping the two books in cloth as they were, Cao Shuo carefully placed them in his arms.
Then he raised his hands to Cao Ang and said.
"Since my brother trusts me, I have nothing to say but do my best to read these two books as hard as possible."
"I will also work as quickly as possible to put it to use in a short time and improve excellent millet seeds and wheat seeds for our Cao family!"
After entrusting the matter to Cao Shuo.
It can be regarded as relieving Cao Ang's worries.
As for when you can see results.
Although Cao Ang had certain expectations regarding this matter, he was not too eager.
Anyway, no matter how fast it is, it won't be done by the end of the year, so there is no need to pursue it too much.
As long as we can see the real thing before the Cao family once again has serious friction with surrounding forces and launches a large-scale battle.
That's enough.
…
The two brothers sat in the quiet room for a while.
Cao Ang left two warrants for Cao Shuo.
They were to allocate him a team of men and horses, and to mobilize Zaozhi as a field officer.
After Zao Ji resigned from the post of Ding Tao Ling and the troops he brought from Jinxiang County arrived, Cao Shuo could use these two warrants to complete the above arrangements.
After that.
Cao Ang was about to leave.
Cao Shuo suddenly remembered something.
He quickly stopped Cao Ang who was about to step out of the door.
"Brother, there is one thing that I almost forgot. When you followed your father to fight on the front line, a descendant of our Cao family came to join us and is now living in the city."
"I originally wanted him to rush to Changyi County, but I didn't dare to make any decisions without authorization, so I had to let him wait in the city for the time being and wait for my father or you to come back before making a decision."
The words are spoken.
Cao Ang suddenly became interested.
"oh?"
"Do you know what his name is?"
When there was great chaos in the Guandong area, there were many descendants of the Cao family scattered all over the world.
At this moment, Cao Cao raised a banner.
There are people coming to seek refuge one after another, which is not surprising.
As far as Cao Ang is concerned, if this descendant of the Cao clan is an unknown person, then there is no need for him to meet him in person and worry about it.
Just find someone to arrange it for him, or send it to his father, that's enough.
And if it's someone you know well and trust, you might want to come forward and meet him.
…
After hearing Cao Ang's inquiry, Cao Shuo.
He didn't even hesitate for a few breaths.
He answered simply and neatly: "He said that his name is Xiu and his nickname is Wen Lie. He is the nephew of Uncle Zi Lian. In terms of relationship, he should be his father's son and your brother."
It turns out to be Cao Xiu!
Cao Ang suddenly raised his eyebrows.
I already know this.
When my father raised the banner to attack Dong Zhuo in Dingtao County, the scattered Cao and Xiahou clans came to join him one after another.
At that time, after Cao Ang saw Xia Houyuan, Cao Chun and others, he thought that there were two missing.
One is Cao Xiu and Cao Wenlie, and the other is Cao Ren and Cao Zixiao.
It's just that the sky is high and the road is far away where these two people are.
Firstly, the news was received late, and secondly, even if the letter was obtained, it would take a lot of time along the way.
So it takes a long time.
Cao Ang almost forgot about these two people.
Now Cao Xiu unexpectedly appeared in Dingtao County, which brought him a big surprise.
After all, the Cao family is indeed short of people right now.
Although many talents came to Yanzhou after my father became the shepherd, there is still a shortage.
Although Cao Xiu is young now.
But he is not mediocre either.
After all, it can be put to many uses.
Think about this.
Cao Ang immediately told Cao Shuo: "I have something to do today, please arrange for him to wait for me at the government office tomorrow, and I will go see him then."
Cao Shuo nodded quickly to express his understanding.
…………
In fact, Cao Ang was fine.
After he said goodbye to his younger brother Cao Shuo.
He went straight back to the mansion.
I just ran to the West Courtyard, visited Dong Bai, and confirmed that her condition was even better than yesterday.
He quietly slipped into the backyard.
Then through the closed door, he arrived at the other courtyard next door without knowing it.
Be away for many days.
Step onto this familiar tree-lined road.
Cao Ang felt extremely emotional.
Although there are fallen leaves on both sides of the road, the gravel road for people to walk on still looks quite neat and refreshing.
I don’t know if someone comes to clean it from time to time.
Perhaps it was the Queen Mother's order?
Cao Ang didn't know.
He just deliberately slowed down his pace and moved forward unhurriedly. His destination was very clear, which was the house of the Queen Mother's baby that he had not seen for a long time.
