"My subordinates are willing to go!" Lu Su and Zhang Zhao clasped their fists together.

Yes, both of them want to go to Xuzhou to see.

Judging from the current experience, the mission to Xuzhou is not dangerous at all, but a beautiful thing.

In this way, many people want to go to Xuzhou for a visit.

"Haha!" Sun Quan couldn't help but chuckle: "It seems that the public is very yearning for Xuzhou!" ”

Everyone couldn't help but be embarrassed and a little embarrassed.

Sun Quan didn't make too much fun of the ministers, and then said solemnly: "Zibu, you are originally from Pengcheng, Xuzhou. I think it's up to you to send it! ”

"No!" Zhang Zhao immediately clenched his fists, and his heart was happy.

Yes, Zhang Zhao still has the idea of returning to Pengcheng to worship his ancestors.

But now that the princes are divided, and the troubled times are at hand, there is no place to go at will.

Taking advantage of this mission, I was able to get my wish.

Lü Bu also quickly returned to Xiapi to learn about the war on all sides.

Knowing that all parties had withdrawn, Lu Bu also breathed a sigh of relief.

In the past two months, Xuzhou has suffered a lot of losses.

Many projects were shut down, and some were even sabotaged by coalition forces.

Such economic losses are not at all something that other candidates can assess.

More importantly, this greatly delayed the speed of Lu Bu's development, which meant that Lu Bu's future expedition would be delayed.

Sometimes Lu Bu really wants to calm down the inside first, and then unify with the outside.

But Lu Bu knew that as a result of fighting like this, the Han people would only become fewer and fewer, and how to compete for the world in the future.

Moreover, the Three Kingdoms have also fought for a hundred years in history, and even if they want to pacify the interior, it will not happen overnight.

In fact, Lu Bu is also familiar with history and has a considerable understanding of various dynasties and generations.

Whether it was the Han Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, the Song Dynasty or the Ming Dynasty, the Han people had the most glorious period.

With the national strength and military strength at that time, it was completely enough to support them to expand their territory.

However, the rulers of every era thought that the surrounding area was a bitter cold land that was not worth conquest. They only want to live in the rich land of the Central Plains, and they don't even go to the south.

Because there are many mountains in the south, it is difficult to collect.

There is no way, limited by his vision, Lu Bu can't say anything.

As a result, every dynasty and generation will be invaded by foreign peoples, which will make the lives of the Han people miserable.

The Song Dynasty, in particular, was the most humiliated.

You know, there was artillery during the Song Dynasty.

However, the Song Dynasty did not vigorously develop firearms at all. In the end, it was a country that was ruined.

Especially after the shame of Jingkang, Han women were humiliated. And a cowardly man can't protect a woman, but in the end he can only transfer this hatred to the woman who has been insulted.

Since then, the status of women in ancient times has fallen to the most humble level.

In Chinese history, the period with the largest territory was the Yuan Dynasty.

However, the territory conquered by the Yuan Dynasty was conquered by the Mongols, not the Han Chinese.

And with the overthrow of the Yuan Dynasty by the Han Chinese, those territories were also divided at the same time.

I don't want to say anything about this, Lu Bu just doesn't want to repeat these mistakes.

He wanted to lay down a big territory for the Han people in this era.

To achieve this, he will stop at nothing.

All the merits and demerits are judged by future generations.

In order to achieve this wish, Lü Bu preferred to give up internal strife.

Although it is inconsistent with the fact that the outside must be settled first, Lu Bu has no choice but to do it.

Because Lu Bu was middle-aged, he didn't know when God would take his life.

Maybe twenty years, maybe thirty years.

And Lu Bu's plan is to build a big empire within thirty years.

In later generations, China overtook the Western powers by 100 years in 30 years.

At that time, he wanted to use 30 years to catch up with and surpass the world's 2,000-year-old scientific and technological civilization.

Lu Bu soon convened a court meeting, so that he wanted to understand the current situation to the greatest extent.

Chen Gong said: "Lord Qi, with the death of Yuan Shu, Beihai Kingdom and Donglai County will be decided. Yuan Tan saw that the general trend had gone, and had already retreated to Jizhou, Hebei. At this point, Qingzhou was also under the rule of the lord. It's just that Yuan Tan moved away a lot of people, although he took Qingzhou, but the population was not abundant. ”

"Hmm!" Lu Bu nodded: "We must stabilize Qingzhou as soon as possible and do a good job in the census." ”

"No!" Chen Gong continued: "In addition, Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and Liu Biao have all sent envoys to negotiate peace, and they have also asked the lord to summon them. ”

"Well, please send the messenger to the temple!"

Soon, Sun Quan's envoy Zhang Zhao went to the palace.

Then, he stated the opinions and demands of the people.

And when he heard that there were no rubber trees, Lu Bu was depressed.

Only then did Lu Bu remember that there were rubber trees in many areas in the south in later times, but they were only introduced from South America in modern times.

In this way, how could Lu Bu not vomit blood in anger.

You must know that the outbreak of World War II is a big reason for the competition for rubber resources.

After being speechless, Lu Bu had no choice but to press his temper and think about the national policy.

Although he repelled the coalition forces of all sides, with his current strength, he would definitely not be able to counterattack.

Then, we can only continue to do business in a friendly manner and strive for rapid development.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Bu said in a serious voice: "There is nothing wrong with peace, but Jiangdong must agree to a few conditions!" ”

"Wait for it!" Zhang Zhao responded.

"One, Jiangdong must export more than 1 million koku of rice to me every year."

"A million stones!" Zhang Zhao couldn't help but exclaim, you know, this is a huge amount of money. Food is a strategic resource, and Zhang Zhao doesn't dare to respond casually.

One stone of rice in the Han Dynasty was about 31 kilograms in later generations. One million stones is 30,000 tons.

This grain is equivalent to the annual food ration of 200,000 people.

Seeing Zhang Zhao's hesitation, Lu Bu said solemnly: "This is to buy, not to rob." You have a lot of paddy fields in Jiangdong, and this bit of food is not difficult for you. ”

In this way, Zhang Zhao also dispelled his concerns. It's not about giving it, it's about selling, and it's also possible to get money. This bit of food is indeed not a problem for the current Jiangdong.

"Okay, this is the case, Wen Hou please continue."

"Second, the annual export of coarse salt must also have 1 million stone and 50,000 stone of roasted tea."

What the!

Zhang Zhao was shocked again: "Warm weather, millions of stones of grain, Zhao can understand, why do you need so much salt and tea." Even if people all over the world eat it, they won't need so much salt and tea! ”

Lu Bu chuckled: "You don't need to worry about this, you just need to respond." Again, this is to buy, not to rob. With such a large order, its trading volume is enough for the people of Jiangdong to live. You only need to build a few more salt pans for coarse salt, and as for tea, it takes a little more thought. This candidate does not earn the secondary processing fee of your tea, and after two days, this candidate will write a complete roasted tea process to you. ”

Yes, the best roasted teas are all hand-roasted teas. Therefore, Lu Bu didn't want to earn this processing fee.

Moreover, fresh tea cannot be transported over long distances, so it can only be fried on the spot. The tea industry, Lu Bu can only be handed over to Jiangdong to complete.

This is not only due to geographical limitations, but more importantly, Lu Bu is underpopulated, and he can only use his labor force in the most profitable industries.

Some low-level industries with low technical thresholds will be completed by others.

The same is true for salt, Xuzhou is not sunny enough, and it is completely inferior to the southern seas. And many good places, Lu Bu had to be used to build ports and naval bases.

And Lu Bu needed a lot of salt, so he had to assign the task of drying salt to Jiangdong to complete. Anyway, it is coarse salt, and it has to be purified by him twice, and the majority of the profits are still with him.

This time, Zhang Zhao was excited.

If Lu Bu really had so many needs, these transactions alone would be enough to earn countless money for Jiangdong!

"Okay, this matter should also be done, I don't know if Wen Hou still has requirements!" Zhang Zhao immediately responded.

Tea is not enough, and more people are asked to plant tea trees, these are small things.

"Three, I want you Jiangdong to cooperate with Benhou to open a school. Ben waits for the money to produce the books, and you contribute. After the school is completed, you will also send teachers to teach, as long as you study the books provided by Ben Hou, the rest of Ben Hou will not care. ”

What the!

Again, Zhang Zhao was so shocked that his whole body trembled.

Generous, and peerless.
