It is the Qiancheng Changshi Mansion, which was rebuilt from the original capital protection mansion. It is divided into front, middle and back, and three courtyards. All built on high platforms. It is a well-defended, fully functional barrier city. In other words, it is composed of four parts: outer, middle, inner, and inner.

Liu Bei can understand Ban Dingyuan's hard work.

For the Han army to defend the Western Regions alone, build a stable and fortified city. In this way, no matter the wind and sand outside the city, the sun is still green. Is it like a blazing sun, or is it extremely cold to the bone. Just enter the city, take three sips of spirits, and warm up. I fell asleep and woke up on a sunny day.

A city with a heavy layer is the strongest shield. It can give the strongest protection to the Han wanderer who is thousands of miles away.

Atrium, main building.

Liu Bei went to the bedroom on the second floor and saw Murong Yan taking a nap.

Then he walked lightly and approached.

Sister Yan'er frowned slightly, her eyes were closed. The long loose hair reflects a warm afternoon sun spilling from the window, just like a firefly flying fire. It's glamorous.

Smelling Liu Bei's familiar breath, he opened his eyes slightly.

Just as he was about to get up, Liu Bei had already sat down lightly on the edge of the bed: "Madame, don't move." ”

"Husband." Murong Yan smiled.

There are as many as fifty countries in the Western Regions.

These days, Liu Bei has been busy sorting out the political affairs of various countries. In addition, seeing that the heavy snow is coming, the countries of the Western Regions are strong and clear, and there is still no trace of the beggar department. Liu Bei was multitasking, so he failed to detect the abnormality of the seven young ladies.

"Can you let the good doctor in Fuchu see it?" Liu Bei asked softly.

"Never." Sister Yan'er's eyes flashed with a hint of shyness. Suffer from gains and losses. It's because my heart is looking forward too much. I'm worried about my own empty joy.

How could Liu Bei not know, so he raised his voice slightly: "Someone is coming." ”

"The slave is here." The front hall is guarded by embroiderers, and the atrium is run by the Ann sisters. The foreign maids selected by the seven young ladies are still stepping up their training in Han etiquette and correcting their accents. It's not going to be useful now. The Son of Heaven exercised in the Western Regions for a long time. The Changshi Mansion is like the Han Court in person. Every move, all eyes on it. Both internal and external use need to be exemplary. Not the slightest sloppiness.

"Swift Doctor."

"Whoa." An Ruoshui, who was on duty today, took the order and left.

After a while, the doctor in the mansion who lived in the east building of the front yard rushed to treat Murong Yan. The chamberlain is a military doctor. Several of the best doctors are on duty in the military camp and the Changshi Mansion in turn.

The person who diagnosed Qin Dai's happy pulse before was also this person.

"Congratulations, my lord, Mrs. Yan is also pregnant." The doctor bowed to the ground.

"Haha!" Liu Bei laughed at first, and then hurriedly shut up. For fear of disturbing Sister Yan'er. I asked the doctor, and Dr. Hua had already sent a prescription for fetal protection. Sister Dai'er has been taking it all the time, and she is gradually becoming pregnant. This made the doctor also fry for Sister Yan'er.

"I'm afraid that the sisters will soon become pregnant." confirmed that she was pregnant, and Sister Yan'er was relieved. Then he smiled softly: "Everything in the house needs to be taken care of." The An sisters are also proficient in Chinese and Hu, which can be of great use. ”

"Okay." Liu Bei smiled and nodded.

I heard that Sister Yan'er was also pregnant, so the young ladies came to say goodbye. Even Sister Dai'er, who was pregnant, was also supported by An Ruosu and rushed from the inner room to celebrate.

The family laughed and enjoyed themselves. Although it is far away in the Western Regions, there is a longing in my heart, and thousands of miles are not far away.

Accompanied Sister Yan'er to talk. Shi Jian reported under the corridor that there was a matter of tuntian outside the city, which required Liu Bei to decide.

Recently, everything has been complicated, and there is no skilled craftsman in the hometown. Many things need Liu Bei to do himself, and it is difficult to have a moment of leisure. Then he got up and departed.

Although the two righteous brothers live in the backyard, most of them stay in the army to train their tigers. Guan Yu and her husband are all enemies. At that time, everyone valued heroes, regardless of Han Hu. The Xianbei warriors of Tuoba other tribes under his command have long been convinced and are willing to be driven. Liu Bei ordered someone to report that the two righteous brothers would enter the house to say hello.

Before tuntian, the canal was repaired.

Then use channels to divide the fertile land vertically and horizontally. If the terrain is elevated, the water flow is not exhausted. It is also necessary to erect a rollover truck to divert water. Water towers have also been erected in the city, and washing utensils have gradually become popular among residents. The blacksmith shops in the city worked day and night, forging many iron tools. Even the officers and men of the battalion also went out to dig ditches in order to finish the ditch before the freezing three feet.

In order to prevent wind and sand, it is also necessary to plant trees.

These are planned in advance, and there is no need to rush.

More than 5,000 households have settled in the city. Among them, 2,000 are of Han descent. Tuoba other Xianbei three thousand. There were 30,000 people. The post of city mayor is concurrently held by Zhang Meng. Half a month ago, I received a letter from home, and my father Zhang Huan had passed away. At the age of seventy-eight, he was ordered to be buried in plain clothes. He also ordered Zhang Meng to take national affairs first, and there is no need to go to the official to guard filial piety.

People value filial piety. Although Han Law did not enforce three years of mourning, it was the norm to go to the official and guard filial piety for three years.

However, the father's order must not be violated.

Liu Bei wrote Zhang Duliao's handwritten book to everyone. Report to the court for Zhang Meng. He also led the subordinate martial arts to sacrifice Zhang Duliao from afar. It is to let Zhang Meng stay in office.

Seeing Zhang Meng lying on the ground and crying, Liu Bei let out a long sigh.

Liangzhou Sanming eventually became history.

The lights are on.

Non-stop, all the way over the mountains and mountains, the envoy of the King of Guishan, who had just arrived three days ago, bathed and changed his clothes, and went to the dinner of the Changshi Mansion.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also came to accompany them.

Luoyang is goodbye, almost a year. When they said goodbye, Guan and Zhang were already famous all over the world. The envoy of the Kushan king, who has witnessed the recognition of the lord in the horse market, also has a lot of feelings.

Feeling the righteousness of selling horses, Guan Yu also respected him a lot during the banquet.

Three rounds of drinking. The King of Kushan raised his glass and asked, "I see that there is a high platform in the open space in front of the house, and there are piles of heads around it. But somehow? ”

Liu Bei replied with a smile: "It's to redeem his wife." ”

"Oh?" The envoy of the Kushan king, then said, "What is the redemption of a wife? ”

Li Ru, the chief bookkeeper who accompanied him, explained everything in detail for Liu Bei.

"I see." The envoy of the King of Kushan then made his intention clear: "Don't hide the long history, there are many female slaves in the country. I wonder if it can be shipped for sale? ”

And so it was. Liu Bei smiled: "There are only female slaves in your country? ”

"Naturally, there are people of all ages." The King of Kushan replied with a smile.

"Why don't you bring the family here?" Liu Bei laughed again.

"Oh?" King Guishan's heart moved: "Could it be that the long history is useless?" ”

Liu Bei nodded lightly: "The countries of the Western Regions are vast and sparsely populated. I want to do Tuntian and defend myself. However, there is no shortage of manpower. If you can bring a family to sell it, it can be useful. ”

"I don't know how much it takes for a long history?" The Kushan King asked hurriedly.

"Let's start with 10,000 households." Liu Bei replied.

"If you count the old and the young. Ten people in one household. ”

"Yes, yes."

"I don't know how much history is worth?" The Kushan envoy asked again.

"Why don't you make an offer first?" Liu Bei said with a smile.

"Hmm......" After careful consideration, the King of Kushan tried to speak: "How about ten coins per household?" ”

The 'ten coins' in the mouth of the Kushan king's envoy refers to the Kushan gold coins.

Located between Rome and the Han Dynasty, Kushan won a large amount of gold from the Roman Empire through the Silk Road trade. Historical records. The Roman Empire paid 50 million gold coins to the Kushan Kingdom each year for foreign trade alone, and 100 million coins flowed into China.

In other words, we have had a huge surplus in foreign trade since the Han Dynasty.

Han one tael is twenty-four baht. The Kushan gold coin weighed about 12 baht. Two gold coins, one tael of gold. Based on ten people in a household, it is five taels of gold. 10,000 households, a total of 50,000 taels.

Saying. 'Wearing Hun clothes' plundered 10,000 Dongqiang households, also with a population of 100,000, at a price of 100 million yuan. Converted to horseshoe gold, it is only 10,000 pieces. One piece is sixteen taels, totaling one hundred and six thousand taels.

Notice. What the Kushan king's envoy reported was the selling price after it arrived in its dry city.

Freight on the road, as well as discounts, are included. According to the Kushan envoys, a fifth or more of the slaves who were transported from Kushan to the Western Regions died on the way. In addition, people eat horses and chew along the way, and the road expenses also require a lot.

This price is really not expensive.

Liu Bei had no intention of lowering the price. But there is only one condition: people of different races have different beliefs.

Thou shalt not bring in all the people of a tribe or a small nation.

And the king of Kushan gladly agreed.

Easy to do.
