Chapter VII. Water Conservancy and Irrigation

However, Jia Xu had already realized that there was something wrong with his talent at this time, and he would not go down after adjusting for a while, Lu Bu didn't mind, and he didn't hold on to this matter, but after a pause, he continued: "In addition to these, do you have anything else to mention?" ”

Liangle was much less embarrassed by Lu Bu just now, and when he saw Lu Bu asking again, he hurriedly said: "Le Fang just thought of another thing, maybe the lord also thought of it, that is, cultivated land planting, irrigation and water conservancy projects that are needed......"

This time, he learned to be obedient, and he also took into account Lu Bu, the lord, in his words, of course, even if he didn't, Jia Xu would not blame him again, only to realize that he had made a mistake, and now he simply closed his eyes slightly and made a look of nothing to do with himself, anyway, Lu Bu asked his opinion first, and he had already said it, so he could be a bystander and listener first.

Lu Bu didn't care about their careful thoughts, Liangle's construction this time was just for him to appreciate, although he would definitely think of it later, but it was always good to be reminded by someone earlier, and this was exactly what they did, so he nodded and said: "Bo Yu reminded him of this matter well, but this matter has another plan, do you have any other questions?" ”

For the problem of agricultural irrigation, it has always been a big problem in the development of agriculture, the famous Dujiangyan, which was built by Li Bing, the Taishou of Shu County in Qin, and his son, and it is precisely because of such a large water conservancy project that Shuzhong has become a famous country of abundance; If the Hetao Plain wants to restore its former prosperity, water conservancy projects are indispensable, and when thinking of irrigation projects, Lu Bu naturally thinks of a person under his current command.

Speaking of which, he was not involved in the reward and personnel of his party, this is because he has been given a position before, and there is no need to make other arrangements, but now that he thinks about the water conservancy, I am afraid that he will have to be moved again.

At this time, Bailidu, who rarely made a sound, said: "Wen Hou." Agricultural production is indeed the top priority, but trade should not be neglected, although agriculture is the foundation, industry and commerce are the last. But industry and commerce have to pay attention. The water conservancy project mentioned by Bo Yu is also a kind of industry and commerce, and Du thinks that we are now at this cross-ethnic border. Although there will inevitably be wars with them, people-to-people contacts are also indispensable, and trade is inevitable. In this case, it is better for the government to unify the control, such as opening a merchant house, it is better than our merchants going through the wind and running to the other race first, and they may have to run out of people and money. ”

What Bailidu said made Liangle's eyes light up, and he looked at Bailidu again, but he didn't expect that this guy who had been pouring himself wine before was still a little smart.

If it weren't for Lu Bu's early order, someone prepared the sobering soup and brought it to them, so that he could sober up, I'm afraid he would still be half-drunk and half-awake, and he wouldn't know what he would say or do, and he would die of shame. So he has some grudges against Bailidu, the "culprit" like himself, and of course he will not reject his good construction because of this.

And Lu Cui, who was sitting next to Bailidu, also hurriedly echoed: "Cui also thinks that industry and commerce really cannot be ignored, and it is better to communicate with each other than to isolate one place......

Lu Cui's words have led to a discussion, and everyone has their own opinions, but it does not exclude the inclusion of industry and commerce in development matters. Lu Bu's current subordinates are all people who have no gateway views and will not stick to those small sections, and it is also this kind of person who proposes to build a foundation that is groundbreaking and constructive in this era.

It's just that in this way, things seem to be more and more, and the discussion is gradually intense, but in the end, Lu Bu came to make a final decision, and finally basically settled the matter, and then Lu Bu announced the end of the meeting and asked everyone to go back.

Not long after the meeting, Lu Bu took Ayimu and a few other soldiers to a residence in the south of Jiuyuan City.

This residence is obviously renovated, but it is not very big, and there are two big characters written on the door, Lu Bu looked at it and smiled, and asked a personal soldier to come forward and invite in.

This kind of thing Ayimu can only watch, after all, his dignified face is afraid that he will scare people half to death as soon as he steps forward and does not speak, he is here to visit people, not to pretend to be a ghost (Ayimu wants to cry without tears, Dian Wei was shot while lying down).

It didn't take long for someone to come to invite, and it was the owner of the house who came out in person, but it was Ma Jun, who was first startled when he saw Lu Bu, and then hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Ma Jun didn't know that Wen Hou was coming, and he asked Wen Hou to forgive him if he was neglected." As he spoke, he glanced at his own door with a little reproach, this kid was too blind.

The man was dumbfounded when he heard that the person in front of him was the lord of the state, but he still felt aggrieved when he saw Ma Jun's gaze, where did he know the identity of the other party, and the pomp was not big, who called the master, you always said that someone had to report first, this Wen Hou just now only said about agriculture and water conservancy to find land.

At this time, Ma Jun hurriedly invited Lu Bu and his party in, and waited until the guests and hosts were seated, and Lu Bu naturally sat in the main seat as Lu Bu, and then Lu Bu told Ma Jun about the farmland and water conservancy matters discussed today, and at the same time talked about his thoughts, wanting him to take up this burden and be responsible for the water conservancy and irrigation project of the Hetao Plain, and he would also allocate people to assist him, as for the labor force, there is no need to worry.

In the end, Lu Bu smiled: "What, is it a surprise or a surprise to hear this kind of news?" ”

"Hehe......" Ma Jun just smirked for a while at this time, but he didn't know how to answer.

Indeed, as Lu Bu said, Ma Jun's first reaction after hearing his words was surprise and disbelief, and after confirmation, he was surprised, and he was also full of sighs about his original choice.

The reason why he agreed to leave Luoyang with Lu Bu was actually semi-forced, if it wasn't for Lu Bu sending someone to "invite" him, he wouldn't have left Luoyang at will.

Although Wang Yun's death still has a certain blow and impact on him, but after all, Luoyang is the capital of the Han Dynasty, and there are still many opportunities for him, even if Wang Yun is dead, there will be a new Situ to replace him soon, and the frequent rotation of the three dukes in the late Han Dynasty has already tempered his nerves, and he will no longer be dazzled or distressed by it, or Situ can also go to Sikong and Taiwei if he can't do it, there is always a place where he needs himself, and he can always find his own position, as long as he really has the ability.

But even so, Ma Jun still knows very well in his heart that no one would value his skills so much like Lu Bu and use them so much.

Originally, Ma Jun was not very satisfied with the environment here in Bingzhou, it doesn't matter if it is bad or not, he is also a poor child, and the impact of the environment on him is not so great, mainly because he feels that he has no way to play here, and he helped Lu Bu improve the equipment in the army before, such as the crossbow, etc., which is not what he wants, although he still obeyed Lu Bu's orders, but he is not happy in his heart, because the promises made by the people sent by Lu Bu have not been fulfilled, And in the end, he was only able to conceive and build some agricultural equipment in his own house, which can be regarded as masturbation.

Even he kept comforting himself in his heart, he couldn't ask for more, it was good enough that he had such an environment now, at least his mother-in-law didn't mess with him anymore, didn't she?

But Ma Jun is not a person who will be willing to be so comfortable, otherwise he would not be Ma Jun, the thoughts in his heart have not stopped, but with the passage of time, he even thought that if Lu Bu did not say anything about him, he would directly have a showdown with him, but he didn't expect that Lu Bu would come to the door in person this day and tell him such a good news.

At this moment, he not only felt that Lu Bu valued him - otherwise there was no need to come to the door in person, but also felt that he had a heavy responsibility, and at the same time he was even more faintly excited, after all, there was a stage where he could show his strengths, which he had always been looking forward to.

He nodded solemnly to Lu Bu and made his promise: "Wen Hou rest assured, Ma Jun will definitely not let you down." (To be continued.) )
