The summer city was covered with snow, but the lord's mansion was warm, and officials came in and out from time to time.

Chu Tian fought one after another, and finally had time to rest.

Fang Xuanling, Li Kui and others were all dealing with internal affairs in the front hall of the lord's mansion, and everything was calm.

As Zhou Yafu successively captured the villages and towns of Yangdu County, the good news was transmitted back to Xiacheng, and the population controlled by Chutian finally increased from 800,000 to 1 million.

If it is placed in some small civilization areas, Chu Tian is already a prince. It's just that in the Eastern Han Dynasty, at least you have to become a Taishou or a thorn in order to be eligible to be a prince all the way. The Eastern Han District is just too big.

Chutian stipulated that the time for handling internal affairs was 9 to 5.

Fang Xuanling, Li Kui and other officials have residences in the city, and when the time comes, they will take the initiative to say goodbye to Chutian.

Now that it's winter again, the lords don't want to continue fighting, so there are fewer battles.

"My lord, please go to the humble house, and my subordinates will show you a good thing."

Before Xia Liang returned to his residence, he took the initiative to send an invitation to Chu Tian.

"There's something you can bring directly to the Lord's Mansion."

"This thing...... It's really hard to ......."

Chu Tian saw that she was mysterious, so he had to follow her.

Generally, the good things she mentions are related to making money. Chu Tian is very short of money now, he wants more money and recruits more soldiers and horses.

The houses that are cool in summer are the same as the houses of Fang Xuanling, Li Kui, Li Guang, Hua Mulan and others, all of which are allocated by the lord's mansion.

Chu Tian rarely visited his subordinates' residences directly.

In summer, the cool house is not big, but it is not small, and the layout inside is very elegant, and a pavilion is built.

Chu Tian didn't think it was corruption, with her money and the rewards she had recently received, it was more than enough for her to build ten pavilions in her private house.

In the gazebo, there was a woman in a yellow dress with a book in her hand. There is also a stove next to it, which emits light smoke, which looks a bit like fireworks in the cold winter.

Undoubtedly a beauty.

Chu Tian thought that he was not a womanizer, but he was also a little surprised.

"I designed this dress, you don't recognize who she is, do you?"

In the summer, he held an oil-paper umbrella to block the snowflakes that fell from time to time for Chutian, and he was quite proud.

Chu Tian was separated by a distance, and he really couldn't tell who the woman in the pavilion was.

As he got closer, he quickly understood who the man was.

"The last general has seen the lord ......"

When Mulan saw Chu Tian coming, she hurriedly closed the book and saluted Chu Tian with her fists.

Chu Tian couldn't help but laugh, this was the first time he had seen Mulan change into a long skirt, but Mulan obviously thought that she was still wearing armor and acting in a hurry.

"Sister Mulan, you can't usually do this."

In the summer, it is cool and timely to adjust Mulan's usual women's etiquette.

"The good thing you took me to see was Mulan?"

Chu Tian looked Mulan up and down, and the yellow skirt and waist showed her bumpy figure vividly...... In the past, Chu Tian couldn't see that Mulan was quite material.

Because it was winter, she wore an undershirt under her long skirt, her long hair was pulled up with white silk satin, and her cheeks were a little frozen red.

"How is it possible Mulan...... It's something more exciting......"

"What's more exciting?"

At this time, Chu Tian also felt that he was lonely.

He thinks that encouraging Mulan, who usually wears armor, to change into a long skirt is exciting enough.

Summer Liang asked Chu Tian to wait in the gazebo, and then took out a wooden box from the house, and when he opened the wooden box, Chu Tian was completely stunned. Even Mulan, who is usually cold, has hot cheeks.

There was underwear in the wooden box!

"Miss Xia, ...... you are"

Chu Tian finally knew why it was inconvenient to be in the Lord's Mansion.

Xia Liang was asked by Chu Tian and pouted: "Of course it's to make money!" ”

"I'm a poor ......"

"The subordinates are not here to sell to you. Food, clothing, housing and transportation, each of which can get a lot of income. Clothing, is silk, cotton and linen. food, i.e. grain, fish, salt. dwelling, i.e. a private house. line, that is, horse-drawn carriage, water transport, sea transportation. As long as we have a monopoly on most of the silk trade, do you think we will be short of money? The vast majority of players will accept this clothing, and then a trend will be formed, and then all civilians will accept it. ”

"In the Spring and Autumn Period, Duke Qi Huan liked to wear purple clothes, so the entire Qi people rushed to imitate it, and the price of purple cloth rose sharply. When it was, five pieces of plain cloth could not be exchanged for one piece of purple cloth. Later, in order to reverse this trend, Duke Qi Huan claimed that he hated purple clothes, and three days later, Qi Guo would not see anyone wearing purple clothes. This shows that the attitude of the monarch can affect the preferences of the commoners under his rule. ”

Chu Tian understood the meaning of cool summer, which was to cater to the needs of players, and at the same time promote underwear and make money from civilians.

What a ghost.

"I have no opinion, you just let it go. However, in "Lords", it should not be possible to create items that you don't have. ”

"No, there's such an item in the Lord's canon, I learned advanced tailoring skills, and then I tried to make it, and it did. If you don't believe me, you can check its properties. ”

Summer Liang said seriously.

Chu Tian had to check the attributes of a piece of clothing.

[Name]: Cool underwear in summer

[Quality]: Superior

[Durability]: 199/200

[Description]: A normal piece of clothing with no defense. The player's summer is cooler than the October system of the second year of the lord calendar.

"You can really make ......"

Chu Tian seemed to see a good way to make money.

It seems that something is wrong, how can there be a little less patience......

"Later, you can let the other tailors do the production. Your time should be spent on other things. ”

Chu Tian secretly said in his heart, in order to increase financial revenue, as a lord, what is the big deal to encourage the sale of underwear.

Chu Tian agreed, and handed over a silk workshop to Xia Liang to operate, and she would go to the specific toss. The loss of a silk workshop, Chu Tian can still afford it.

Hua Mulan was present, but she couldn't talk at all in terms of clothing, and Chu Tian didn't comment on Hua Mulan's presence because of her presence.

The production of clothing that is popular with players living in Summer City has come to an end for the time being.

Chu Tian asked Mulan about cavalry training by the way.

There are now 3,000 light cavalry stationed in Xia City, with an average rank of about 45.

Mulan's exclusive cavalry, the Iron Eagle Scout, is still in training, and she's already eager to give it a try.

Commanding an elite cavalry is very different from commanding an ordinary light cavalry.

Chu Tian accidentally discovered that Mulan's long skirt was still the fabric he gave her in Luoyang.

After Chutian agreed to promote underwear, the textile workshop began to manufacture a large number of underwear, and then sold it in Xia City, causing a sensation among the player group for a while.

"No, is there really anything like that for sale?"

"I ...... I want ......"

The first to start chasing after was a group of female players, and then the civilians of Xia City were affected and began to haunt the silk shops......

"Ding! A new A-grade specialty has appeared in your Territory Summer City - fine silk underwear. ”

Chu Tian received a prompt from the system and was quite surprised.

The invention of cool summer has also become one of the specialties of Summer City.

In fact, it is not an invention, there is this kind of item in the setting of "Lord", but it is made in the summer, and then it is vigorously supported by Chutian as the lord, so it has become a specialty.

Some female gamers who have learned the art of tailoring have long since discovered it, but they are ashamed to promote it and do not have the support of their lords.

On the contrary, it was Chu Tian who picked up a big bargain.

Although he had already expected the value, Chu Tian was still a little surprised, because the net profit of the silk shop on the first day was as much as 325 taels of silver, and the inventory was directly sold out in the next few days.

325 taels of silver is enough to buy four gold-level war horses.

It can be seen how helpless the female players trapped in "Lord" are. Now the female players in Xia City have regarded Chu Tian as a hero.

So Chutian arranged more weavers to produce this new specialty.

New specialties are most lucrative when they come out, and once other lords manage to produce them, the profits are diminished.

In order to recruit money to buy horses, what about sacrificing fame.

"Lord, Xu Sheng, the military general of the lord of Ju County, has taken refuge in General Zhou Yafu!"

Chu Tian received Zhou Yafu's letter.

Chu Tian was greatly shocked by Xu Sheng's coming to vote, he failed to capture Xu Sheng alive in Yangdu County, but now Xu Sheng ran over to take refuge by himself.

Zhou Yafu has explained the incident in as much detail as possible in his letters.

Qi Xiaobai went to take refuge with Ling Feng, the lord of Ju County, but Qi Xiaobai's subordinate Wu Sangui suddenly attacked and killed Ling Feng, thinking that he could subdue Xu Sheng.

As Ling Feng's general, Xu Sheng was extremely loyal, dissatisfied with Wu Sangui, and took his own soldiers to fight with Wu Sangui.

Wu Sangui came prepared, Xu Sheng suffered a big loss after all, and after the defeat, he fled to Yangdu County on the other side of the Yi River, wanting to use the power of Chutian to avenge the old master.

"Wu Sangui is really a headache......"

Chutian put down Zhou Yafu's letter, and now Wu Sanguixiong is based in Ju County, with tens of thousands of troops, and has become Chutian's great enemy.

"Please Xu Sheng come to Summer City."

Chu Tian originally thought that the first Three Kingdoms martial artist he had subdued would be a Taishan thief, but he didn't expect it to be Xu Sheng.

Annam District, Da Viet Country.

"He's a player in the Eastern Han District, damn it, he took Zhancheng Rice with him!"

"Catch him!"

A group of menacing lords and players of the Great Yue Kingdom slay a sailboat with blades in hand, splattering the deck with blood.

The boundary of the civilized area was opened in May of the second year of the lord's calendar, and immediately the lord of the Eastern Han Dynasty sent outlaws to Annan District to try to obtain Champa rice.

The enraged lord of Annam washed the galleon in blood.

As they loot the loot, they find that something seems to be wrong.

"This is not a sailing ship of the Eastern Han Dynasty, we have been deceived!"

"They're so cunning! Once the lords of Jiaozhou and Yangzhou get the Zhancheng rice, it will be a huge threat to our Dayue Kingdom! ”

No matter how angry the players of the Great Yue Kingdom are, it will not help, because the players in the Eastern Han Dynasty who have obtained the Champa rice have already set sail with the help of the sea breeze blowing on land from the Pacific Ocean.

"Big brother, I did not fail in my mission and got the seeds of Champa rice. In the future, the south of the Yangtze River can become a granary. ”

Standing on an undulating deck, a Jiaozhou player risked his life to travel to Champa and bribe the local officials to finally obtain the precious Champa rice.

"There are also players from the Great Yue Kingdom who hunted me down, and I will seek revenge on you in the future. A long time ago, the Great Yue Kingdom should have been the territory of our Eastern Han Dynasty! ”

Jiaozhou and Dayue have always had grievances.

Originally, the land of Da Yue was supposed to be part of Jiaozhou, but later Da Yue was separated and a different civilization was formed, which is now Annan District.

The lords of Jiaozhou had only two directions of development, either to attack Jingzhou and Yangzhou in the north, or to attack the Dayue Kingdom in the south.

Chu Tian waited patiently in Xiacheng for five days, and Xu Sheng, a military general of Eastern Wu, finally came to Xiacheng on a warship.

"Summer City is more prosperous than I thought. However, the scale of Xia Cheng's sailors is not large. ”

Xu Sheng disembarked at the dock in Xia Cheng and saw a thriving fish market on the shore.

The fourth-level fish market in Xia City was overcrowded, supplying 100,000 people in Xia City.

In order to develop Xia City, Chutian moved the 50,000 population of Langya City into Xia City, so the current Xia City is second only to Langya City.

A group of light cavalry returned to the city after crusading against the bandits, and met Xu Sheng, who came to take refuge. Leading this group of cavalry was a young general in white.

Xu Sheng looked at the man, feeling a little familiar, and suddenly remembered that this was the Xia Cheng military general who led the heavy cavalry to break through the formation that day.

This immature-looking white-clothed young general led three hundred heavy cavalry to chisel through his legion during the battle of Yangdu County, and the majestic halberd of Fang Tian Painting made Xu Sheng deeply impressed.

Xue Rengui didn't know Xu Sheng, and he still glanced at Xu Sheng intentionally or unintentionally when he passed by.

"General Xue, the lord has a trick."

Xue Rengui was stopped by the guards with Xu Sheng.

Chu Tian knew that the historical generals were powerful, Xu Sheng might be a diamond-level general, if he broke out and hurt people, with Chu Tian's current force, he might be killed.

Therefore, Chutian specially summoned Xue Rengui and Li Guang, two fierce generals, to prevent Xu Sheng from being sent by Wu Sangui to surrender.

Soldiers don't get tired of deceit.

Xue Rengui dismounted and asked the lieutenant general to help him lead the Turkic war horse back to the stable.

Xu Sheng's eyes lit up when he saw Xue Rengui's war horse.

He also knows the difference between the good and the bad of war horses.

The price of Xue Rengui's war horse is at least five hundred taels of silver.

Xu Sheng couldn't help but feel a little envious.

At least he didn't come into contact with such a good horse.

"You are?"

"Xu Sheng, the general of the defeated army."

"Why are you here? Could it be that you came to deceive you? ”

Xue Rengui's first reaction was that Xu Sheng surrendered.

Although Xu Sheng was defeated in the battle of Yangdu County, he was not completely annihilated. He returned to Juxian after the defeat and should not appear in Xia City.

"Don't be suspicious, little general. My lord was killed by Wu Sangui, so he wanted to borrow troops to take revenge. ”

Xu Sheng's expression was a little gloomy when he mentioned this.

Chutian knew that Xu Sheng had been loyal to Eastern Wu all his life and was a military general who could be trusted, so he would accept Xu Sheng's refuge.

Xu Sheng followed Xue Rengui to the Lord's Mansion, Chu Tian bathed in incense, and took Li Guang to wait for Xu Sheng's arrival.

It was difficult to subdue the wild generals, and the two Taishan thief generals, Zang Ba and Sun Guan, were still imprisoned in the dungeon of Xia Cheng and did not surrender.

Now Chutian wants to subdue a military general who is better than Zang Ba and Sun Guan, and he is still a military general of the water division department.

Chutian has generals of infantry, cavalry, and archers, but there is a lack of water generals.

Whether you can subdue the first military general of the Three Kingdoms depends on your own three-inch tongue.
