Gu Yong saw the opportunity quickly, and hurriedly took two steps forward to quickly help Lu Bu.

Yang Wei also hurriedly stepped forward at this time, and the two of them saluted Lu Bu respectfully and said, "Lord Wenhou, torture me, torture me." ”

Only then did Lu Bu get up and say, "I don't know much about the two virtuous brothers, and I urgently need manpower in all aspects now. In this way, for the time being, I have wronged the two of you, and asked Gu Yong to take up the position of being engaged in my governance, and asking Yang Wei to take the position of the chief bookkeeper. The two of you look at it, are you satisfied with this arrangement? ”

After hearing this, the two of them were shocked again, although they were not of high rank and were state ministers, they held very important positions.

Zhizhong is engaged in one of the senior adjutants of the state pastoral history, mainly responsible for various Cao documents, and is in charge of affairs, so it is named as Zhongzhong.

The main bookkeeper is the position that Lu Bu held in the past, and he is the assistant official of the chief officials at all levels.

In short, these two people are very close officials around Lu Bu from today onwards, and it is very likely that such a position will be released as a leader in the later stage.

The most important thing is that people who are generally not very close to and very trusted, will not be allowed to hold such a position.

When the two of them first arrived, they were appointed to such an official position, and they were naturally moved.

The faces of the two young men flushed with excitement, and they even had an urge to worship Lu Bu as the lord at this moment.

In this way, the three young people became closer.

Cai Yong was even happier when he saw this, these three people were all his juniors.

Whispered an order, and soon a mermaid came in and put on a banquet, and the four of them drank happily in Cai's mansion.

Cai Yan left as early as the beginning of the banquet, Lu Bu deliberately glanced at Cai Yan secretly, and the latter also happened to look at each other, the two looked at each other tacitly and smiled, and a sweet surge in their hearts.

However, the two of them didn't notice that their little action was clearly seen by Cai Yong.

After three rounds of drinking, Lu Bu suddenly spoke: "The two virtuous brothers have just arrived, and they can put forward any ideas and suggestions. ”

The two of them glanced at each other, both of them hesitated, Lu Bu's question was a little abrupt, but the two of them didn't dare to answer easily.

Cai Yong opened his mouth at this time and said: "It's okay for you to say it, Feng Xian's words must be from the bottom of his heart." ”

After thinking about it for a while, Gu Yong took the lead in speaking: "If there is anything wrong, please ask Wen Hou to point it out." ”

After a pause, Gu Yong continued: "Wenhou Xinyu Liangzhou defeated Dong Zhuo in Xiayang, and now he is in the limelight, and he can be said to be the strongest today. Although his reputation is unparalleled, Wen Hou will inevitably become the target of public criticism at this moment. ”

Lu Bu nodded, and said thoughtfully: "Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind." Yuan Si is right. ”

Gu Yong continued: "Dong Zhuohu is in Chang'an, although he has experienced a big defeat, but his vitality has not been injured, and Dong thief coerced the Son of Heaven, although he is despised by the world, but he occupies the righteousness, which is the biggest enemy. ”

Lu Bu nodded.

Gu Yong dipped in wine, wrote the ground, and after a while, drew a rough map of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

While pointing to the map, he explained: "There is Yuan Shao in the east, Cao Cao is also gaining momentum now, and Yuan Shu in the south, three imperial uncles, although Wen Hou is strong, but he is surrounded by strong enemies." ”

Since Dong Zhuo's rebellion, people of insight have realized that the Eastern Han Dynasty has come to an end, and it will inevitably be followed by troubled times, so although there is no point at this time, everyone has a tacit understanding.

Even Cai Yong, who was most loyal to the Han family, was silent at this time.

Lu Bu nodded, but there was no expression in front of him, Gu Yong analyzed that these were the situations that were now on the surface.

Gu Yong continued: "This is also the crisis I said about Wenhou. ”

Lu Bu raised his eyebrows and motioned for Gu Yong to continue.

Gu Yong pointed to the location of Liangzhou and Bingzhou and said: "The two places that Wenhou now occupies are vast and sparsely populated, although they are vast. Moreover, the northern land is barren and unsuitable for farming, and although the Hetao Plain is rich and beautiful, it is occupied by the Qiang people. It is rare for Jizhou, Zhongshan and Changshan to be self-sufficient. The only ones who could provide grain and grass to supply the army were the four counties of Sizhou. ”

Lu Bu nodded, this is where he has the shortest board now.

The people depend on food, and there is not enough food and grass, so nothing can be done.

Since the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, natural disasters have occurred frequently, and wars have been continuous, especially in the northern region, which has been most poisoned by wars.

It is very difficult for many people to survive, and there are even tragic incidents in many places where they are eaten by changing their children.

Although Lu Bu has always been committed to the development of people's livelihood, after all, it is a drop in the bucket, and as Gu Yong said, under his rule, most of them are barren land, and the four counties of Sizhou alone are not enough to support the loss of the two states.

What's more, at this time, it has entered the era of division of the heroes, and the wars are bound to be one after another, and grain and grass have become the top priority.

Gu Yong suddenly asked, "I don't know what Wen Hou can do?" ”

Lu Bu organized his language and said slowly: "In the early years, I have been implementing the method of tuntian, and now it is gradually starting to take effect. In addition, the artisan battalion in Bingzhou has developed a lot of farming equipment, which will also help to increase the production of grain and grass. ”

Gu Yong nodded, then shook his head again.

Before Lu Bu could ask what Gu Yong meant, Gu Yongjing said to himself: "Everyone in the world regards businessmen as valuing profits over them, but they don't know that businessmen also play a vital role in developing people's livelihood. Therefore, I suggest that Wenhou open up a business road and use business to prosper agriculture. ”

"Okay, Yuan's sigh is exactly what I want." Lu Bu stroked his palms and laughed, he really deserved to be the future prime minister of Dongwu, and he found the key at once.

The development and improvement of agriculture is not something that can be completed overnight, and the only way to hoard grain and grass in a short period of time and improve the overall strength is through economic means.

This is also the original intention and purpose of Diao Chan's economic empire strategy at that time, although this strategic plan has already been implemented, but most of it is carried out in secret.

Except for the Zhen caravan announcing that it was cooperating with Lu Bu, at least on the bright side, Lu Bu did not have any very profitable projects.

Therefore, without understanding, the phalanx proposed by Gu Yong has a common vision with Diao Chan and Lu Bu, two people who crossed over from the era of the economic explosion in the later world.

At that moment, Lu Bu briefly explained some of their current situation to Gu Yong, which made Gu Yong sigh again and again, and laughed at himself for getting an axe.

However, Gu Yong also put forward a lot of valuable suggestions at the same time, making Lu Bu's plan more perfect.

After chatting with Gu Yong for a long time, Lu Bu turned his head to look at Yang Wei, and the other party saw Lu Bu turn his head and look at it, and bowed his head slightly.

After clearing his throat, Yang Wei said: "Mencius said: 'If you don't follow the rules, you can't make a circle.'" 'Now there are many military generals under the command of Marquis Wen, and they should be widely accepted and governed. ”

"Great goodness. I have this intention, Zhong An's position as the chief bookkeeper can just share my worries. There is a person under my command, named Du Ji, who is in charge of this matter after Du Yannian, and Zhong An should be close to this person. ”

Yang Wei replied respectfully: "Obey the orders of the Marquis of Wen, and you will live up to your trust." ”

Lu Bu nodded, it seems that Yang Wei is a taciturn person and a doer, and such a person is more trustworthy.

Today, two great talents came one after another, and Lu Bu was very happy, and frequently toasted Cai Yong, Gu Yong, and Yang Wei at the moment.

The dish is a delicacy, and the wine is the "Qionglin liquid" produced in Bingzhou, Lu Bu and Cai Yong are okay, they often drink this wine on weekdays, so they are more suitable for the degree of this wine.

Although I drank it all the time, I didn't get drunk because I used a small cup in advance, not an ordinary wine cup or glass.

However, the first time Yang Wei and Gu Yong tasted this kind of wine, they first began to see Cai Yong and the others drinking in a small cup, and they didn't know what they meant.

After a few sips, I felt that the wine was mellow and soft, and I couldn't help but drink a lot, but I didn't know that although this wine was delicious, it was also full of energy, and when I didn't drink much, the two of them were already drunk.

Gu Yong and Yang Wei were too drunk to fall asleep on the small case, and Cai Yong ordered his subordinates to help the two down to rest.

The master and apprentice continued to eat and drink while gossiping.

"Fengxian, the teacher has never thanked you for rescuing Yan'er. This glass of water and wine, I respect you for the teacher, thank you for sacrificing your life and forgetting death to save the little girl. Cai Yong raised his glass above his head with both hands, and then drank the wine in the cup and said.

Seeing this, Lu Bu hurriedly got up, drank all the water and wine in the cup, and hurriedly said: "Teacher, if you talk like this, don't you treat me Lu Fengxian as a disciple?" ”

Cai Yong saw Lu Bu's sincerity, he was very moved in his heart, shook his head, and had a lot of emotion for a while, but he didn't know where to start.

Lu Bu paused, and then said: "Teacher, one day is a teacher, and one life is a father. Kong Sheng also tasted 'the prince of heaven and earth'. The teacher is in Fengxian's heart, just like my father. When the teacher has something, the disciple obeys it, which is a matter of course. ”

Cai Yong was relieved when he heard this, and sighed comfortably and said: "Although the old man has no children under his knees, he has a disciple like you, which is really worth his life." ”

"The teacher's teachings, the same reinvention ...... Lu Boen"

Cai Yong smiled bitterly and interrupted: "Fengxian, do you know that the teacher doesn't like these flattering words. As a teacher, I also know that you are in difficulty now, the last time I heard you sigh alone by chance, so I found some helpers for you with a thick old face, and it can be regarded as doing something for you for the teacher. ”

Lu Bu said movingly: "Teacher, Bu is grateful. ”

Cai Yong waved his hand, and then suddenly looked a little strange, it seemed to be a little angry, some seemed to be a little helpless, and it was mixed with joy and relief, and a variety of emotions appeared on the old face at the same time.

When Lu Bu saw Cai Yong's expression, his heart tightened, and a bad premonition gradually rose.

After thinking for a while, Cai Yong still sighed, and suddenly said something that made Lu Bu's heart tremble.

"Fengxian, you told the teacher truthfully, when you were in Liangzhou, did you and Yan'er have feelings for each other?"
