"You are very good at calculations, and you want someone to work for your lord, and you can't threaten your lord, what charm does Liu Zhang have to make you think so much about him?"

"Brother Cui means agreed?"

Cui Zhouping took a sip of tea and nodded.

Liu Zhang has added countless difficulties to himself in order to re-establish the Han Dynasty, Huang Yueying sacrificed his reputation in the family in order to re-establish the Han Dynasty, and he has long been unaccustomed to the world controlled by this family, so what reason is there to refuse?

Huang Yueying was overjoyed, but then said: "Brother Cui, although I really want you to help me, but there are some things I still have to say, the Sima family, the Zhuge family, and the Pang family are all famous families in the world, and many of their children are our friends, as well as your Cui family, in the future, if the Sichuan army steps into the Central Plains, does Brother Cui know what the consequences are?" ”

Cui Zhou's plane sank like water, drank tea and was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "I only be my master." ”

………… Liu Zhang left the former general Yan Yan to guard Fancheng, Jingzhou assassin Shi Huang Yueying, and the later general Fan Lixiang sat in Xiangyang, the prime minister Xiangyang military and civil affairs, Yang Ren led 10,000 soldiers and horses back to Shangyong, and Deng Zhi led 40,000 soldiers and horses into Hanzhong to assist Wu Ban in defending the northern gateway of Yizhou, and at the same time deterring the Qiang people who invaded the territory.

Liu Zhang led Zhang Ren and Huang Zhong and other 50,000 troops back to Chengdu.

The army passed the Yubelly Pass, here used to be the junction of Yizhou and Jingzhou, the gateway of Xichuan, now there are only 2,000 soldiers guarded, and then it is Fuling, because Jingyi Erzhou entered a period of recuperation, Liu Zhang ordered not to sacrifice the army along the way, but in addition to the main officials came out to greet them, there were still many people to watch the triumphant division.

To Liu Zhang's surprise, Ye Wutie actually came down the mountain to greet "Wuxi Ye Wutie to see General Han and congratulate the general on his victorious return." ”

Ye Wutie paid homage to Liu Zhang, and Liu Zhang hurriedly helped his old man up: "The king is polite, I remember that when I first went on the expedition, the king borrowed five thousand soldiers and horses from me, so that I could take Jingnan so smoothly. ”

Liu Zhang patted Ye Wutie's strong back, and looked at the large grassy flat land outside Fuling City, the river was gurgling, and the wild flowers were swaying in the wind.

"Does the king see it? In order to thank the Wuxi people for their help to Benhou, if the people of Wuxi are willing, this land is yours. ”

The few barbarians behind Ye Wutie were all happy.

"Still." Liu Zhang continued: "The king also knows that there are still our Han people living around here, and there are farmlands, so a large area of grazing is not possible. ”

"Farmland?" A group of Wuxi people looked at each other, this was too strange to them.

Ye Wutie said embarrassedly: "Thank you for the kindness of the general, you see that we savages in the mountains, where will we farm." ”

"yes, yes." A group of Wuxi barbarians agreed, and they couldn't help but think in their hearts, if they gave a piece of farmland, it would be better to reward a few chicken legs.

"Huh." Liu Zhang chuckled and said, "How can I not know this? ”

Liu Zhang faced the leader of the barbarians and said: "Wuxi warriors, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, hard and brave, but I think the life of the Wuxi warriors is not rich, this line of hunting and grazing, if the season is good, when you can mix food and clothing, if you encounter black disasters and white disasters, the winter is cold and snowy, and the summer is scorching for thousands of miles, I am afraid that the warriors will not have a good time."

Ben Hou is to see this, Wuxi warriors and meritorious battles, only want to improve the lives of the warriors, this fertile land to Wuxi warriors to cultivate, we will send special people to supervise, the first year of food, all by the government supply, the second year after the harvest, we will not collect taxes for three years, if there are many fields, five years will not be taxed, not only that, every acre of mountain fields, the government will also give rewards. ”

Liu Zhang looked at Ye Wutie and said generously: "King, this is just what the official is thinking of at the moment, and the king can mention anything else." ”

"This ......" Ye Wutie thought for a while, frowned slightly, and then looked at the few barbarians behind, but they were all a little happy, only feeling that this deal was a sure deal.

Ye Wutie bowed to Liu Zhang: "Thank you for the good intentions of the general, I will definitely go back to convey this good news." ”

"Daddy." A delicate female voice came.

Ye Wutie, a Wuxi King and Liu Zhang, a Han general, naturally had something to say, Xiao Furong couldn't interject all the time, and she didn't dare to be rude, this is to see that the two of them finally finished speaking, and they couldn't restrain themselves anymore, they hadn't seen each other for more than half a year, Xiao Furong just finished shouting, and tears couldn't help but burst out of her eyes.

"Girl."

Ye Wutie saw Xiao Furong dressed in red at the beginning, in fact, he went down the mountain this time, the first is to welcome Liu Zhang, deepen the relationship between Wuxi and the Han people, and the second is to think about his own daughter, since the last expedition, without this daughter who drinks and quarrels with himself, Ye Wutie is really not used to it.

"Girl."

"Daddy."

Ye Wutie picked up Xiao Furong, both of them couldn't suppress their joy, laughing from the bottom of their hearts, Liu Zhang watched it on the side, and also sighed a little, and couldn't help but feel a little disdainful for his behavior, people helped him, and married his daughter to him, and he didn't return to Chengdu yet, so he put someone else.

"Daughter, how did you get lighter?" Ye Wutie put down Xiao Furong and said.

Liu Zhang's heart jumped, this old man wouldn't think he was abusing his daughter, right? To say, Liu Zhang also found that Xiao Furong was indeed much lighter than when she was in Chengdu, Hanzhong, and when men were on women, she could easily ......, "If you fight, you will definitely become thinner." Xiao Furong said with a smile, hiding the haggard in her heart this year.

"Husband." Xiao Furong walked up to Liu Zhang's side and bowed with the Han family's daughter: "I want to go back to Wuxi to live for a while, is it okay?" Xiao Furong pleaded.

Liu Zhang glanced at Ye Wutie with an expectant face, and then at Xiao Furong, usually other people's daughters will return to the door, not to mention that Ye Wutie and Xiao Furong have been dependent on each other since childhood.

Besides, in the past half a year, Xiao Furong has indeed suffered a lot, a girl with a big grin, she was tortured into a woman who does not smile, and only when Ye Wutie hugged her just now did she release her original unrestrained nature.

"Absolutely." Liu Zhang nodded and said, "Speaking of which, I, who is a son-in-law, should have accompanied you back, and you should go back and fulfill my filial piety together." ”

"Thank you, husband." Xiao Furong's face was happy, and she hugged Liu Zhang tightly, Liu Zhang seemed to see that the hearty and free girl from before was back, smiled, and said in Xiao Furong's ear: "If Miss Huang agrees to get married, you must come back when we get married." ”

Liu Zhang kissed Xiao Furong on the lips, in a wide audience, there were ordinary people, Wuxi barbarians, and tens of thousands of troops, Xiao Furong was red-faced, and Liu Zhang was separated, two white and tender palms were on Liu Zhang's shoulders, looking at Liu Zhang's half a sound, he finally mustered up the courage, stood on tiptoe, and also kissed Liu Zhang's face.

"Definitely coming back." Xiao Furong returned to Ye Wutie's side.

Ye Wutie looked at the two of them, smiled and nodded, and immediately anxiety resurfaced on his forehead.

The barbarians left under the leadership of Ye Wutie, and Shamoke also led six thousand barbarian troops to follow back to Wuxi, these barbarian "armor soldiers" were all elated, and they all had a feeling of returning home, and they all said that they wanted to go back and show the brand to whom, and who they wanted to marry in which village, and they were so envious of it.

The barbarian army went up the mountain, Ye Wutie glanced back at the Han army troops under the mountain, sighed deeply, and Xiao Furong asked strangely: "Daddy, what are you sighing about?" Are you dissatisfied with your husband's reward? Then I'll ask him to add more, but now that my husband is also short of money and food, I'm afraid I won't be able to add much. ”

"It's not that I'm dissatisfied, it's that I'm too satisfied." Ye Wutie shook his head.

Xiao Furong was puzzled, and an elderly barbarian on the side said to Xiao Furong: "Young lord, the Han people are not easy to get along with, Liu Zhang's move is very unfavorable to our Wuxi, look at those clansmen." ”

The old barbarian pointed to those radiant barbarian soldiers and said to Xiao Furong: "Liu Zhang is a bounty and silver, and a bounty and a knight, you see that they are happy one by one." ”

Xiao Furong said strangely: "Isn't this bad?" Husband, he is thanking us Wuxi people for their help to him, our Wuxi people's life is already hard, and the bounty is given to silver, and the field is rewarded, isn't it just to improve our lives? Uncle Abu, what are you and Daddy worried about? ”

"Ugh." Abu sighed: "Young lord, you don't understand, your Han husband is digging our foundation, think about it, this time these warriors have gained so many benefits, if Liu Zhang wants to go on the expedition next time, I am afraid that the warriors of the entire Wuxi will fight for their lives."

This is not the most important thing, the important thing is that those acres of land, if they are given to us directly, we will dispose of them at will, but with your husband's temperament, I am afraid that not an inch of land will be given to us Barren Mountain Clan.

If our warriors and people really go to cultivate those acres of land, you listen to what your husband said, what is tax exemption for three years, tax exemption for five years, guidance for farming, and rewards for those who open up mountains and fields, in the final analysis, these clansmen who go to farm are ruled by the Han people, and they will change from the people of Wuxi to the people of the Han people.

Who will let go of the reward? Especially the hardships that our Wuxi people have lived, there must be many people who are tempted, if they encounter a disaster year, they will flock to it, and they will rush to the food supply of that year, so is our Wuxi still called Wuxi? ”

Abu shook his head: "Young lord, your husband's move is really **, the king is because the relationship between the two families is good, and Liu Zhang has the grace to save his life, and for you, he didn't turn his face with your husband on the spot." ”

Abu shook his head and walked forward, Ye Wutie also walked up, Xiao Furong looked at Daddy's face, knowing that Daddy also thought the same as Uncle Abu, and couldn't help but hug the white jade sword in his hand.

"Sister Mulberry Ye, what do you think?" Xiao Furong asked Sang Yedao beside her hesitantly.

Sang Ye smiled: "Uncle Huang is the uncle of the Han Dynasty, it is not impossible to weaken the foreign clan for the Han Dynasty, but Mrs. should have a farther vision, not only because Mrs. is the wife of the Emperor Uncle, Mrs. should also think clearly, whether Wuxi is weakened or not, it must be unfavorable to the people of the Wuxi tribe." ”

Xiao Furong's thoughts were a little confused, looking at the Sichuan army slowly driving into Fucheng under the mountain, her face was full of worry, and she only hoped that there would be no conflict between Wuxi and the Han people.

As soon as Liu Zhang entered Fucheng, there was a quick horse report: "Report, there has been a big change in Guanzhong." ”

"What?" Liu Zhang asked.

Zhong Miao returned to Chang'an and called on more than a dozen soldiers and horses in Guanzhong to besiege Chang'an, Liu Bei Zhuge Liang retreated without a fight, and all the soldiers and horses encountered a fire in Chang'an, and encountered a big flood in Chiyang, and the soldiers were lost.

Liu Bei Zhuge Liang led the army to retreat in the direction of Anding Shicheng, the people of Chang'an were grateful for Liu Bei's kindness, and the people followed along the way, there were more than 200,000, almost caught up by the chaotic army, fortunately, Ma Teng's son Ma Chao led the army to come to the aid and blocked the chaotic army, and now Liu Bei has been stationed in Shicheng and formed an alliance with Ma Teng. ”

"The kindness of the fart." Liu Zhang couldn't help but scold, the fire in Chang'an, the water in Chiyang, thinking of the Xinye of the Three Kingdoms, it is clear that Zhuge Liang burned down the houses in Chang'an with a fire, and broke the embankment of the river, those homeless people, if they don't follow them, where can they go?

I've seen a hypocrite, but I've never seen such a hypocrite.

But now that Liu Bei has these hundreds of thousands of people and Ma Teng as an ally, it seems that this little warlord is really going to rise, but he can't reach it, otherwise he will definitely end this group of hypocrites.

"What's going on in Guanzhong now?"

The soldier said: "After Liu Bei fled into Shicheng, because Zhong Xuan had no soldiers and horses, more than a dozen princes fought again for the belonging of Chang'an. ”

"Huh~~" Liu Zhang let out a sigh of relief, Huang Yueying was right, Chang'an is a whirlpool of war, Zhuge Liang really does not plan to possess Chang'an for a long time, Chang'an is the old capital of the two dynasties, rich and prosperous, if you change the ordinary people, in the face of such temptation, there is absolutely no such courage, and you will defend Chang'an desperately.

This is the difference between a true hero and an ordinary prince.

"Ordered Shangyong Yang Ren, Hanzhong Wu Ban, and Fancheng Yan Yan to do their best to receive refugees, and they can send Xizuo to Chang'an to preach, and if they can't be resettled, they will all be sent to the resettlement sites in the hinterland of Jingyi Erzhou, and local officials along the way will ensure that the refugees will be fed and lodged."

"Yes." The soldier took the order and left.

Ten days later, the army arrived in Fucheng, Liu Zhang returned to Chengdu with his own soldiers, Chengdu officials in Wang Fu Huang Quan arrangement, out of five miles to greet each other, Chengdu clan Yan family, Yin family, Zhang family, Wu family, etc., most of the patriarchs to Qi, a small number of really can't come, but also called important people in the clan to come to greet each other.

Chengdu Mufu.

"The adults are coming back, the adults are coming back, I heard that this time the adults won a big battle and got a lot of land, should I go out to greet it?"

Lotus and a few maid sisters said loudly, and the steady lotus slapped Lotus's head: "you, what is your identity, what are you ying." ”

"My lord hasn't been out of the door so far before, so I don't know if I should welcome it." Lotus was unconvinced.

In the past, there were twice as many maids and servants in the pastoral mansion as now, and since a year ago, Liu Zhang has successively dismissed half of the maid rings and servants, or rewarded them to his subordinates, and the entire pastoral mansion has been much emptiest.

But even so, there are not so many pomp and circumstance as before, there are not so many singers and banquets, and the work in the house is much easier than before, especially since Liu Zhang left, this pastoral mansion has basically no work except for cleaning the yard, even washing clothes and cooking, most of them still wash their own clothes and cook their own meals.

The girls were much more relaxed, and they were very grateful, and when they heard Liu Zhang coming back, Lotus would have fun.

"Lotus is right, let's just greet you outside the house." Huang Yue walked out of it with Liu Xun, her face was calm, but when a few maids saw it, they all smiled secretly.

Lotus whispered to the lotus: "See, Miss Huang is wearing new clothes, in the past, they were all yellow and green, but today she is wearing gold and white, so beautiful, but it looks much more expensive." ”

"See, the girl still drew her eyebrows, have you seen them usually?"

"I've only seen girls wash their faces and hair."

"Hehehe."

"What's noisy." Lotus scolded softly and whispered: "The adult said that he came back to marry the girl, Mrs. Hou, of course the girl has to dress up, you unruly things." ”

Huang Yue usually doesn't manage these girls too strictly, as long as it is not a big mistake, she basically will not be punished, so these girls are getting bolder and bolder, and at this time I heard the girls muttering, although I didn't hear anything clearly, but I saw that their eyes were staring at their clothes.

This dress was indeed carefully chosen by Huang Yue, and he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable all over his body, his ears were red, and he was forced to calm down.

"That, Lotus." Huang Yue said coldly: "Adults must be very tired when they come back after a long journey, add some laurel when you boil the bath water and make a pot of lemon tea." ”

"Yes." Lotus agreed.

"Lotus, take the quilt that has been dried two days ago to the adult's room and spread it, the quilt that has just been dried is a little dry, spray some fragrance on it, in addition, restrain these rings, when the adult comes back, don't twitter."

"Yes."

"The others cleaned the yard carefully, watered the flowers and plants, and the rooms of the adults and soldiers, especially Miss Xiao's, should be taken care of."

"Yes." The girls laughed and ran away, each busy with their own things, Huang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, and he didn't know how he sent these jobs down.

I am not the main mother, so I gave orders in the tone of the main mother, as if I couldn't wait to get married, if I didn't watch Liu Zhang work long distance, I could be more comfortable when I came back, I didn't have to worry about the family, I was a yellow flower girl, and I didn't want to do these things if I was killed, so I let those girls make fun of it in vain This is Liu Xun raised his head and looked at Huang Yue: "Sister Yue, I have written more than a thousand poems, two hundred articles, including more than a dozen articles on governing the country and the country, do you want to move out now, and show it to him when your father comes back?" ”

Liu Xun held his head high, his little face was full of excitement, since he was sensible, Liu Zhang had never left him, but since a year ago, he first conquered Fucheng, and then conquered Hanzhong, and he went for a few months, but this time he walked for more than half a year.

Liu Xun dreamed that his father couldn't sleep well almost every night, and now he is finally looking forward to coming back, just like the parents of modern left-behind children who have been working for a few years, how can they not be excited, if it weren't for Huang Yue's pull, I'm afraid Liu Xun would have run to the city gate by himself.

Huang Yueying sighed secretly, if Liu Xun handed over his "classics" to Liu Zhang, even if Liu Zhang was tired, he would insist on reading it and giving comments, so could he rest?

"Xun'er, you go and compile your article into a book first, read it yourself first, correct the typo, and wait for three days, oh, five days, and then give it to your father to read, okay?" Huang Yue persuaded softly.

Liu Xun was a little lost, he wrote those poems for Liu Zhang, and now he has to hold it for a few days, it's really uncomfortable, but after getting along for a year, Huang Yue is already the person he trusts the most, and he has treated Huang Yue as his own mother, and he will listen to what Huang Yue says.

Liu Xun nodded.

Zhou Budo walked out of the room step by step, he could see that he was in a good mood, walked past Huang Yue, glanced at Huang Yue in new clothes, and said with a wicked smile: "Yo, not bad." ”

"You ......"

Zhou Budo walked out after speaking, Huang Yue's face was red, and he was helpless, just looking at Zhou Budo's back and wanting to slap him hard.

Chengdu is crowded with people outside the city, in addition to the clan and officials, there are a large number of people, Chengdu is almost 10,000 empty alleys, this time is different from the last time I came back from Jiangzhou, it was not arranged by Wang Fu, these people all came spontaneously.

The effect of the three decrees and the prosperity of commerce has been revealed, and the four imperial examinations have allowed many ordinary people's families, people who are skilled and good at entering the official workshops and becoming skilled workers inside, and the income of these people can be compared with the previous in the township, carpenters and farmers work for people, blacksmiths make iron in iron shops, and craftsmen make more money by selling baskets, and the income of many families in Chengdu has greatly increased than before.

Who did not have a major disaster or a minor disease, the land order allowed those people who were sick and sold their fields to the sick, and after the land was sold to the government at a high price, they were rented back from the government, except for the loss of the right to buy and sell, nothing else changed.

In the past, if the peasant was seriously ill, either his family watched him die or they died together, how could these families not be grateful to the land.

Due to the mature operation of the assembly line workshop, the price of many daily necessities is getting lower and lower, and some people who are accustomed to making their own daily necessities such as soaphorn paste do not mind spending a little money to buy those daily necessities.

And those assembly line workshops, and recruited a large number of workers, so that many residents found a way to make money, the poorest Elm Street, now has become the busiest street in the whole of Chengdu, with Elm Street as the center, has become the most prosperous area in Chengdu.

After the assembly line workshop in Xicheng was saturated, the government began to open up to the southern suburbs, and the businessmen who smelled the business opportunities immediately flocked to it, and now the southern suburbs of Chengdu have been as prosperous as the city, and the entire Chengdu city is about to expand.

The battle of Jingzhou, most of the grain consumed was Jiangling and Xiangyang, the grain of Yizhou was not used much due to the difficulty of allocation, and it was not until the disaster relief later, it was transported in large quantities, Huang Quan paid attention to the reclamation of agriculture and mulberry early in the morning, and many new agricultural tools in the craftsman's house were scattered to all parts of Yizhou through the assembly line workshop, and the overturning and loom made by Ma Jun played a huge role in the reclamation of mountain fields and spinning.

With the new rollover, many places not close to the water source have also been reclaimed, the grain output of the Chengdu Plain has increased, and the loom has been put into assembly lines and ordinary family workshops, and silk and Shu brocade have begun to be produced in large quantities.

Due to the low prices, not only Yizhou, but also merchants from other states and counties of the Han Dynasty also went to Chengdu to get goods, and some of the bitter merchants of the Great Qin State entered China from Yumen Pass, and no longer went to the Central Plains to get goods, but entered Western Shu, so that the popular silk and the famous Shu brocade were more popular.

The chairs, stools, and tables of the three-character workshop have been all over the world, and the porcelain and other commodities of the Tianzi workshop, because of the low price, have also seized business opportunities, and Chengdu's business has been unprecedentedly prosperous, and this prosperity has fed back to the people of Chengdu.

The four imperial examinations, the land order, and the prosperity of business, the people did not think it at the beginning, but now they have tasted the benefits, and they all support the three major decrees, and naturally, they also feel that Liu Zhang is a good parental official. So when I heard that Liu Zhang had returned from a great victory, these people who were already above the food and clothing line came out to greet Liu Zhang.

"Gongheng, Lord Wang, is everything okay in Chengdu?"

Liu Zhang rode on horseback, Wang Fu and Huang Quan followed, those people and clans all looked at the neatly lined army, Yin Yuan, the head of the Yin family, and Old Man Yan, the head of the Yan family, stood in the crowd, while arching their hands to the army, their faces were anxious, and the two of them tacitly.

This army has been out for more than half a year and has come back, it is completely different from when it was in Chengdu before, the people are still those people, but the murderous spirit has been too heavy, and it has become too strong, and the army that has not fought for several years has always had such an old atmosphere before, and it has changed its appearance at this time.

"I'm afraid we're going to change the situation, it's going to be difficult." Yin Yuan whispered.

"Now is its heyday, we should be dormant, we must not act lightly, otherwise it will be the disaster of extermination, we must wait until we have all the certainty, and strike with all our might." Master Zhang whispered to Yin Yuandao, his head was not crooked, his eyes were not slanted, and he was facing the marching military column, with a smile on his face.

Yin Yuan nodded silently.

Huang Quan said to Liu Zhang: "Entrusted to the lord Hongfu, when the rice is ripe, the people have been harvesting the rice field, this year compared with previous years to plant acres increased by two percent, when planting rice in the spring, all added the new farm tools of the craftsman's house, full of ploughing the field, sufficient irrigation, especially that Ma Jun, the contribution is indispensable, I believe there will be a bumper harvest."

As a result of the prosperity of commerce, the treasury had increased greatly, and in addition to the new workshops, there was still a part of the surplus, and the officials knew that the lord was victorious in front of them, and they were all conscientious and conscientious.

The family's investment in commercial components has increased, especially the Yin family, the Wu family, as well as our Huang family, by the way, and the Brazilian composer, all of whom have opened their own large-scale workshops under the guidance of the government.

The only problem is that now except for brocade porcelain, the sales of other goods have slowed down, unlike in the past, when the workshop was just opened, and the chairs created hundreds of thousands of dollars for us. ”

"Qu family?" Liu Zhang frowned, and then said to Huang Quan with a smile: "This is reasonable, most of the people are self-sufficient, unless they have a large surplus of materials, they will not be too keen on buying goods, if you want to prosper, you must first improve the living standards of the people, and let them have money."

The second is to open up the source of purchase, in addition to Jingyi Erzhou, businessmen from other states and counties can not let go, the third is to produce good products, if our products are cheap, good quality, many people would rather buy our products, a hundred dollars a piece of fabric, they may prefer to buy finished products, and use the spinning time to do other things, understand? ”

"The lord is high."

Two thousand soldiers escorted Liu Zhang into the city, Huang Quan Wang Fu knew that the army returned to the city, they all needed to rest, Liu Zhang also needed to rest, the people of the pastoral mansion were already waiting outside the house, the two were about to say goodbye and leave, suddenly two young people you pulled me to Liu Zhang.

"I said you little brat, your hair hasn't grown yet, what kind of business do you rob me, be careful that I kill you with my fist." A big man grabbed a young man by the shoulder.

The big man is Yin Bai, the young master of the Yin family, and the young man is Quxi, a Brazilian composer.

"I'm here to do business, not to fight." Qu Xi shook off Yin Bai's shoulders and walked straight to Liu Zhang, Yin Bai wanted to hammer Qu Xi flat with a fist, but he didn't dare to take it seriously, and gritted his teeth angrily.

"What's going on?" Liu Zhang saw Quxi, although he had only seen it once, but he was deeply impressed.

Looking at Qu Xi, he couldn't help but think of Qu Tian and Qu Lingchen again, and Qu Lingchen's demeanor of lifting a sword was as clear as a picture scroll in his mind.

"Your Excellency." Yin Bai preemptively said: "My lord, I heard that the two rivers burst the embankment, it was heartache, thinking of those victims who were hungry and struggling in the mud, I couldn't sleep at night, I couldn't eat, I couldn't eat, and I couldn't wait to suffer for the victims myself......

"Getting to the point." Liu Zhang was impatient.

"Oh." Yin Bai Dahan wiped a handful of "tears" and said affectionately: "In order to help the victims rebuild their homes, I decided to contract all the bricks and tiles for the reconstruction of the two rivers, which is guaranteed to be good and cheap, after all, it is also my Yin Bai's wish to let the people under the rule of adults live and work in peace and contentment." ”

"Good and cheap?" Qu Xi glanced at Yin Bai and said to Liu Zhang: "My lord, everyone knows that the green bricks I fired in Brazil are famous for being strong, and the green tiles are also the best, and I have already opened a shop when the lord entered Jiangling, and when the two rivers burst the embankment, more than 20 brick kilns were contracted. ”

"You ......" Yin Bai pointed to the smoke of Qu Xiqi's seven orifices, and immediately snorted: "Green bricks, green tiles, do you think the victims all build the same houses?" Our Yin family has strong red bricks and noble white bricks, and the bright tiles are also famously bright, and we will also send chairs, stools and tables to the victims, do you have them? ”

"You sell your noble white bricks, and we will sell the green bricks." Quxi saluted Liu Zhang and said: "My lord, the bricks and tiles of our Qu family can be accepted by the official, if they are not qualified, I Quxi will never fight for this business, in addition to sending a set of furniture, we also send a set of farm tools, please complete it." ”

"You...... We also gave a pair of mahjong. Yin Bai said angrily.

Liu Zhang heard it after listening to it for a while, these two "profiteers" were fighting the idea of the victims, but it was also for the benefit of the country and the people, and they were about to arrive at the house, Liu Zhang got off the horse, looked at Qu Xi and said: "Qu Xi, is the Qu family okay now?" If there is any need, as long as it is reasonable, the official can do it. ”

Qu Xi was stunned for a moment, and bowed his hand to Liu Zhang: "Thank you, my lord, the Qu family is a big Brazilian family, and everything is fine now." ”

Liu Zhang nodded and breathed a sigh of relief: "I see the bricks and tiles rebuilt in Jingzhou, and I will hand them over to Qu ......."

"Your Excellency." Qu Xi shouted loudly, lowered his voice and said, "Please think about it, I hope that our Qu family will get business by strength, not because of death...... It's not because of the favoritism of adults. ”

Liu Zhang glanced at Quxi with appreciation, the reconstruction of the victims of the disaster really needs a lot of bricks and tiles, and it is really a big project, no wonder the two of them are red-faced, it is not bad to have this kind of business atmosphere, and turned to Wang Fu and said: "Lord Wang, go back to Jingzhou, let the officials and victims in Jingzhou choose the best." ”

"Yes."

Liu Zhang looked at Qu Xi and said, "Young Master Qu, Ben Hou is back home today, you are a hero of the Brazilian family, how about having a dinner together?" ”

Qu Xi raised his head and glanced at Liu Zhang, Qu Xi knew that Liu Zhang felt guilty about Qu Tian's death, but he didn't expect Liu Zhang to be so honest, but what I don't understand is that when I came back from Hanzhong before, I was also in business, why wasn't I so enthusiastic?

Qu Xi was a little strange, and said: "My lord, the grass people still have to prepare business, otherwise they will be robbed by some people." Qu Xi glanced at Yin Bai, and Yin Bai snorted twice, "Please also ask for forgiveness." ”

"Since that's the case, then Ben Hou won't be forced to stay."

Qu Xi and Yin Bai left, Liu Zhang sighed, Qu Xi was young and handsome, but he was a little similar to Qu Lingchen.

"Lord Huang, I heard that your Huang family is also doing a lot of business now, didn't you want to go to the disaster area to rebuild?" Liu Zhang asked casually.

Huang Quan said with a smile: "Our old man doesn't have the same good business acumen as the son of the Yin family and the son of the Qu family, so he only pulled a little clay and ashlar to Jingzhou. ”

"Selling?" Liu Zhang asked as he walked.

"No, it's a delivery."

Liu Zhang stopped and looked at Huang Quan, "I didn't expect your old man to understand righteousness." ”

Huang Quan said with a smile: "The lord misunderstood, my old man has applied to the officials of the Jingzhou disaster area for the repair of the earthen house, we will build the earthen house for the disaster victims, those clay and ashlar are for strengthening the house, as for the roof tiles, just buy them from other families, we have not undertaken the brick house." ”

Liu Zhang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly woke up, the feelings of this Yin Bai and Qu Xi have been fighting for a long time, the real big head ran to the Huang family, the reconstruction of the disaster area does need a lot of bricks and tiles, but how many victims can live in brick houses? In the end, building an earthen house is the king.

The Huang family contracted this big project, and I don't know where it is better than the Yin family and the Qu family selling bricks and tiles.

Qu Xi and Yin Bai are not without business acumen, they guess they didn't think of simply repairing a house, and they could make money without products, and they were all thinking about selling to the disaster area.

"Daddy." A childish voice came.

Liu Zhang looked back and saw Liu Xun running over, Liu Xun was standing outside the house, he looked at Liu Zhang not far away, but he didn't come for a long time, and finally couldn't help but run over, followed by Huang Yue and Zhou Budo, Huang Yue looked at Liu Zhang, his face was slightly red, and Zhou Budo's eyes were patrolling behind Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang hugged five-year-old Liu Xun.

"Lord, I'll retire." Huang Quan and Wang Fu surrendered together.

Liu Zhang nodded, and said to Huang Quan and Wang Fu: "Tomorrow, I will convene the core civil and military, as well as the steward of the craftsman's house, to come to my mansion to discuss matters." ”

"Tomorrow? The lord has traveled a long way to ......"

"Just tomorrow, let's go," Liu Zhang carried Liu Xun into the gate of the mansion, followed by a group of maids on both sides of the soldiers, all beaming, this pastoral mansion has been dead for so long, and finally rejuvenated.

Liu Zhang used some food, took a bath under the service of Yahuan, felt the warm water, smelled the faint fragrance in the water, and almost fell asleep.

I took off my armor so much, and while Liu Zhang was taking a bath, I picked up a sledgehammer and danced vigorously in the courtyard, and my sturdy and fat bronze shoulders dripped black sweat.

"Boom."

One couldn't hold it, so he smashed the stone table in the courtyard with a hammer, and his eyes were dark, "It's over, this month is gone." ”

When he was feeling remorse, Zhou Budo walked over, "Brother Awesome, why didn't you see Miss Xiao?" ”

"Are you looking for her?" I didn't look back, looking at the pile of debris in front of me, and my heart was bleeding, as if a factory worker had smashed a boiler.

"Just ask."

"She's back to Wuxi."

"Oh." Zhou Budo had a look of disappointment on his face, walked away in a daze, looked back at Zhou Budo so much, and scratched his head: "Why haven't you seen me for nine months, this kid seems to have become stupid?" ”

………… At night, Liu Zhang was half-lying on the bed, holding a bamboo slip in his hand, a clean quilt covering his chest below, and there was also a fragrance, on which was a pile of bamboo slips.

Liu Xun still couldn't hold back, he held back for a long time, and when Liu Zhang asked him casually: "Xun'er, have you made good poems recently?" The little one happily took out the poems he had made.

Watching Liu Xun hug the bamboo slips into his room, Liu Zhang's eyes were dark, obediently, how much money do you have to waste yourself?

But for the sake of educating the next generation, it's all worth it.

Familiar with 300 Tang poems, can't compose poems and chant, I have to say, Liu Xun wrote so many poems, an average of more than five a day, to the back, the poems are still smooth, although there are a lot of typos, but occasionally know how to use a few good words.

Liu Zhang was looking at a bamboo slip and laughing, Huang Yue walked in with a cup of tea, his steps were a little unnatural, since he heard that Liu Zhang announced in public that he was going to marry himself, Huang Yue felt strange when he saw Liu Zhang.

Huang Yue saw Liu Zhang's smile on his face, and also joked: "My lord, why are you so happy to watch?" Huang Yue walked to the bed, a position away from Liu Zhang.

Liu Zhang said casually: "Look at the statecraft that Xun'er wrote for me, it's very interesting, hehe." Liu Zhang looked at the cup of tea on the table, took a sip, and said to Huang Yue: "Miss Huang, it's good for someone to do these things in the future, if you can take care of Xun'er, it will help me save a lot of worry." ”

"It's all done casually, it's okay anyway." Huang Yue spoke, and saw that Liu Zhang continued to look at Liu Xun's "statecraft" and was about to go out, but he hesitated a little, glanced back at Liu Zhang, and finally mustered up the courage to say: "My lord, what you said in Fancheng is ...... Seriously? ”

Huang Yue didn't know how hard it took to finish this sentence completely, and looked at Liu Zhang nervously after speaking, his face was red, and his heart was pounding.
