Liu Tai seems to have expected that Lu Bu would ask this question, after all, the iron ore matter is too big, and the reason why the Gongsun family has been able to dominate in Liaodong for many years also has a great relationship with the iron mine" Marquis of Jin, the iron mine in Liaodong is located fifty miles southwest of Xiangping City, and the army originally stationed here was five hundred people, but the war in Xiangping was urgent, and the army stationed in the iron mine was also transferred back to the city. ”

Then Liu Tai explained the specific affairs of the iron ore again, and heard that Lu Bu was pleasantly surprised, as if the endless iron ore, once it was obtained, it would be of great help to the armies of Bingzhou and Youzhou, with the changes in the situation in the world, the princes were very strict about the control of iron and other things, and they did not want to weaken their own strength and make their neighbors strong.

After chatting with the two, that night, Lu Bu lived in the palace in Xiangping City.

The next day, with the entry of the Youzhou army, Xiangping City was completely occupied by Lu Bu, which means that the Gongsun family, which has ruled Liaodong for many years, is in decline.

The people in Xiangping City will not change their way of life because of the defeat of the Gongsun family, even if some families in the city still think about the Gongsun family, they dare not show it, and the soldiers patrolling back and forth on the streets are not decorations.

Maybe some people will remember the good of the Gongsun family, but what they have to do at present is how to maintain their lives, the Youzhou army attacked Xiangping, and the people who were most affected were the people, and many people were even worried that the Youzhou army would destroy the fields outside their city, no matter who the owner of the city was, as long as they could live, the people would be satisfied, as for getting benefits from the hands of the new master, it was just imagination.

Even if Lu Bu did not promote the policy of merging with the state and Youzhou after occupying Xiangping, all kinds of information about the merger of the state and Youzhou still spread in the city, and the smart people can naturally see that the current Lu Bu's lack of action does not mean that there will be no in the future, and they do not want to lose their existing interests under Lu Bu's vigorous rectification, and there is also a wave of selling land in the city, and the price of land has become cheaper.

After occupying Xiangping, Lu Bu was not in a hurry to attack Xuanxuan, the army fought one after another, and it was also necessary to recuperate, and the iron mines outside the city, Lu Bu also personally took people to check, and sure enough, as Liu Tai described, endless, at this time, the most important thing in Lu Bu's hands was the captives.

These captives became the new labor force of the Youzhou army, and all they had to do was to mine the iron ore as fast as possible, and Guo Jia, after receiving the news that Lü Bu had captured Xiangping, had already begun to build a cement road from Jixian to Liaodong.

After dealing with the affairs in hand, Lu Bu came to the market after dressing up, and to see how a city is, you need to look for it from the market, and Dian Wei secretly led fifty soldiers to follow in secret, after all, Xiangping has just been pacified, and the city is not as stable as imagined.

After walking in the city for a long time, Lu Bu secretly shook his head, compared with Jinyang, Xiangping gave people the feeling that it was chaos, there was no shortage of people who bullied and dominated the market in the market, and the oppressed people also chose to be patient, a big war made the prices in the city skyrocket, especially the price of rice and grain, which remained high, of course Lu Bu knew that these were all done by the family in the city, in fact, only the family had this strength.

In a city, the family owns the most land, correspondingly, they will not lack rice grain, in peacetime, the price of rice grain is good, once it reaches the year of famine or there is a war, the family will profit from it, and there are very few families who really think about the people.

"Liu Ji rice shop?" Lu Bu was puzzled, the door of this shop was closed, but there were many people queuing up outside the door, and many were even anxiously waiting and discussing.

"There are also a few rice shops near Xiaguan, why are you waiting here?" Lu Bu gently patted the shoulder of a young man beside him and asked.

The young man was obviously also a person who couldn't hide his words, and explained: "Your Excellency doesn't know, other rice shops in the city, one stone of rice costs three hundred yuan, but Liu Ji rice shop only costs two hundred yuan for one stone of rice, which is a price difference of one hundred yuan. ”

"Dare to ask who the owner of Liu Ji Rice Shop is?"

"I don't know this below, it is said that the owner of Liu Ji Rice Shop is a big official in the city, and in these years, there are very few officials who can be so fair." Youth Road.

Lu Bu nodded, Liu Ji Mipu, is it a person of the Liu family, if this is the case, he has to admire Liu Tai's foresight, obviously before taking refuge in himself, Liu Tai has had some research, just this behavior made Lu Bu have a good impression of Liu Tai, a family that knows how to advance and retreat, is stronger than a family with strong strength and no one in the eyes I don't know how many times.

Although there is a lot of grain and grass in the city, Lu Bu has no intention of taking it out, he walks around the market to find the shortcomings in the city and correct them in time, the price of rice and grain is high, and he is going to find the family in the city.

Suddenly, Lu Bu felt a palpitation, this feeling was not so strong even when he encountered the Black Ice Platform assassin outside Xiangyang City, and slowly walked forward, Lu Bu seemed to be observing left and right casually, but secretly looking at the suspicious people around him.

"Young master, it seems to have been discovered." An old man in his fifties lowered his voice.

"Found out?" The young man known as the young master looked puzzled, "The other party is obviously still walking normally. ”

"The young master should not underestimate this person, he can get away with it in my hands twice, there must be something extraordinary, the young master and look at the pace of this person, it seems that he walks at will, but in fact, it is not, once there is something dangerous nearby, he can change the direction at any time to evacuate, and his hand, if there is no touch on the waist, as far as his subordinates know, this person is hiding a soft sword, it can be seen that he must have found something wrong." The old man explained.

The young master nodded, "But our interests in Liaodong can't be taken away from this person, and we can't find a way to get rid of it." ”

"Whoa." The old man arched his hand and set his eyes on the tall figure in the distance, with his eyesight, he could naturally see that there were dozens of people secretly protecting him around, if he shot on the street, even if he could hurt this person, it would expose the identity of the young master.

"The Gongsun family is really incompetent, tens of thousands of troops, with the benefits of the city, have been breached, otherwise how can we be so passive, how are things handled outside the city?"

The old man arched his hand and said: "The young master is relieved, the matter outside the city will definitely not be revealed, but if you want to assassinate this person, you need to plan it." ”

"I'll leave this matter to you." The young master looked a little impatient.
