"You are ......" Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, Liu Yi was a little puzzled, he originally thought that Zhuge Liang was coming, but the person in front of him was obviously not Kong Ming.

"Mizhu in the East China Sea, I've seen Mr. Liu." Mi Zhu smiled and bowed slightly to Liu Yi.

"It turned out to be Mr. Mi." Liu Yi returned the salute, stretched out his hand and said, "It's windy here, please go to the house to talk." ”

Mi Zhu nodded, and glanced at it with some curiosity that for this era, it can already be said to be a huge waterwheel, the turbulent river is obviously much slower after passing through this waterwheel, and part of the water brought up in the bucket does not know where to flow through the bamboo pipe, and there are two high platforms on each side, like four bodyguards to hold the waterwheel, which is quite shocking.

"This is the Mo family's trick?" In the end, Mi Zhu couldn't help but ask curiously.

"The superficial work made Mr. smile." Liu Yi nodded, this does involve some advanced Mojia techniques, especially with his ability to give these things attributes.

Among the group, in addition to Mi Zhu, there was also a rather heroic young man, and the rest of them were dressed as guards, led by this young man.

"This is General Zuo's Mansion, Liu Feng, and General Zuo's son." Seeing Liu Yi's gaze fall on the young man, Mi Zhu explained with a smile.

"It turned out to be a major general, disrespectful." Liu Yi glanced at Liu Feng, nodded, and led the group into a nearby dwelling, these days are mainly busy building a walled city, and no separate courtyard has been established, so whether it is Liu Yi, Lu Lingqi, or Wei Yue, they are all temporary residents.

After the guest sat down, Liu Yi looked at Mi Zhu and said with a smile: "I don't know that Mr. Mi is here, but Kong Ming has a trust?" ”

"Definitely." Mi Zhu shook his head and said with a smile: "Mr. Kong Ming did entrust him to bring a letter to Mr. Liu, but he came here on behalf of my lord Uncle Liu Huang. ”

"Oh?" Liu Yi knelt on the straw mat and thought for a while: "I have a two-sided relationship with Uncle Huang, but I don't know what Uncle Huang is looking for me?" ”

"Sir, do you know that Cao Thief excavated Xuanwu Lake in Yecheng and trained the navy?" Mi Zhu smiled.

Liu Yi had a toothache, just say something directly, how did he get to Cao Cao, nodded and said, "I've heard a little." ”

But to be honest, Liu Yi is very speechless about Cao Cao's approach, even if he has to train the navy, how good it is to go to the Yellow River, he can only be trained by strong winds and waves, dig a lake, the artificial lake is calm, what is the difference between fighting on land and fighting on land, the two sides know the roots, and they can't kill each other, just thinking about it, Liu Yi feels very fake.

"Cao Cao trained the navy, must be to go south, although the Cao thief is powerful, but he is a Han thief, my lord is a member of the Han family, since he can't follow those who tend to be inflammatory, he has decided to fight to the death with Cao thief!" In the end, Mi Zhu's tone became impassioned.

Actually, I really want to be inflammatory.

Liu Yi kept a smile on his face, nodded and said, "Uncle Gao Yi, Yi admires." ”

So, what the hell are you here for?

"However, although my lord has the heart to fight to the death with the Cao thief, but trapped in the small city of Xinye, not only the soldiers are outnumbered, but also have no weapons, my lord heard that Mr. is a descendant of the Mo family, and he is more proficient in the art of forging, so he sent Zhu to come to discuss with Mr. to see if he can create a batch of weapons for my lord." Mi Zhu smiled at Liu Yi.

"This ......" Liu Yi felt a pang in his heart, not that he didn't want to accept business at the door, but that Liu Ranran's biggest hobby was the white wolf with empty gloves, so it wouldn't be that he didn't want to give money.

Some embarrassed looked at Mi Zhu and said: "Mr. Mi doesn't know, now I have built a new walled city, materials and money are in short supply, and now just building a city, it is already a little stretched, it is really ......"

What kind of person is Mi Zhu, that is a wealthy businessman, as soon as he heard this, he naturally knew what Liu Yi meant, and immediately laughed: "Sir, rest assured, Zhu has shipped thousands of catties of iron ingots this time, five baht and one million, and then many excellent timber will be presented one after another." ”

Rich and easy to do, Liu Yi heard this, and immediately nodded: "If the materials are enough, it is okay, but I don't know how many weapons the emperor needs?" ”

Thousands of pounds of iron ingots sound like a lot, if you fight a knife, you can fight at most thirty or fifty, if you change to a long spear, you can fight a lot, if you save a little, five hundred spears are okay.

"Ten ring-headed knives, 100 spears, 1,000 sharp arrows, 100 shields, I don't know if it's okay?" Mi Zhu looked at Liu Yi and smiled.

There are not many things, Liu Yi thought about it, and the thousand catties of iron ingots were barely enough, and he immediately nodded and said: "These things are not difficult, but they don't need millions of dollars, 100,000 is enough." ”

If you bring your own materials, you just pay a manual fee, and you don't need millions, although Liu Yi also wants to win this million money, but he knows better that money is important, but reputation is more important, which is also conducive to opening the Jingzhou market.

"The rest is considered to be an advance to Mr., and my lord is now raising iron ingots, and I am afraid that I will have to trouble Mr. to help him later." Mi Zhu smiled.

"Not necessarily." Liu Yi shook his head and said: "There is no such rule, if his uncle has what he needs, as long as the money and money are enough, he should do his best." ”

This money is not easy to take, don't think about calculating with these monarchs, you must not be able to calculate others, it is better to do business.

After a moment of prevarication, Mi Zhu saw that Liu Yi insisted on refusing to overcharge, it was not a fraud, and he had to give up, and ordered someone to bring in 100,000 yuan and 1,000 catties of iron ingots, as for the wood, there were too many quantities, and it was only a boat for a while, Liu Yi was not in a hurry, anyway, the most important thing was the forging of iron, and he could also take this opportunity to hone his casting skills.

"I wonder when these things will be finished?" Mi Zhu asked.

100,000 yuan, if it is used to hire a hundred students...... Liu Yi thought for a while and said, "Ten days is enough, why don't you stay here and bring the things back after you finish it?" ”

In fact, if you really hire 100 people, with Liu Yi's current skill level, you can almost make it all in one day, but that would be too shocking, so Liu Yi said that in ten days, the remaining money can hire more students to speed up the progress of the construction of the wall, this wall is not erected, not to mention that ordinary people have no sense of security, Liu Yi himself does not have it, if someone really kills him, how much can Lu Lingqi's three hundred bandits protect?

A sense of security is very important, which is also the reason why this walled city has not been able to leave too many people for so long, Jiang Xia did not get much benefit this time, but soon after, Cao Cao went south, Liu Yi must take advantage of this opportunity to attract more displaced people to come and join.

"Ten days?" Mi Zhu glanced at Liu Yi with some surprise, and when he saw Liu Yi's gaze, he nodded with a smile and said, "Since this is the case, then I will wait here for ten days." ”
