At the gate of the city, Lu Bu announced loudly to the people: "I, Lu Bu, am on the order of the Son of Heaven to serve as the assassin of Qingzhou, this is an edict, please take a look." ”

Chen Gong held high the edict of the Son of Heaven for everyone to see, and the people were relieved, and Lu Bu was really sent by the Son of Heaven.

"The Qingzhou Yellow Turban Riot is time for stability. After Ben took charge of Qingzhou, the first thing he did was to completely eliminate the Yellow Turban Army and return to normal production and life. ”

The gentry who greeted them were originally forced to come, but when they heard Lu Bu say this, they immediately expressed their attitudes.

"Wen Hou wants to destroy the Yellow Turban Army, and I will donate 5,000 stone of food."

"I'll donate a thousand dollars."

"My family has no money or food, but my family has 300 families, and I took 300 families to join the army.

Lu Bu saw that the people's hearts were available, and hurriedly beckoned: "Ben Jiang has enough money and food, not bad money, everyone can donate money and materials, but not too much, don't affect your own life." ”

Some big families who want to make friends with Lu Bu have already begun to use their brains, how much to donate.

"The second thing is to greatly promote agriculture and mulberry, double the grain output, and greatly increase the stock of cattle, horses, donkeys, pigs and sheep. In a word, the rich and the rich are stable and prosperous, and the poor families can also have food and clothing. ”

The people felt very powerful when they heard it, but more often they felt that Lu Bu bragged, the damage caused by the Yellow Turban Army over the years was very huge, many families were ruined, eating leaves, eating bark, eating Guanyin soil, every family had food to eat, everyone had clothes to wear, what a beautiful wish, but I am afraid it will be difficult to achieve in the short term.

"The third thing is to revitalize commerce, reduce or exempt merchants from taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and make the best use of goods in the north and south. When the time comes, all kinds of materials produced at the people's homes can be replaced with what they need in time. Farmers farm when they are busy, work when they are not working, live a prosperous life, and have hope for their lives. ”

At this time, a small official stood up and flicked his sleeves: "Lord Assassin, please allow the villain to go home, the villain is gone." ”

Lu Bu asked, "Oh, what is your position?" ”

"The villain is Liu Mu, who is the county priest, and is in charge of grazing, grass planting and other matters in the county's stables."

"Oh, why did you stop doing it as soon as Ben came?"

"The villain has a bad stomach and can't eat the cake you painted."

When everyone heard it, they dared to speak like this to Lu Bu, making it clear that they would not give face

Lu Bu's face was flat: "Bold, dare to disobey the officials, come here, drag it out, and cut it." ”

"Yes." Immediately go up to a few axemen, and this is going to be cut down in the street.

Chen Gong hurriedly stopped: "Wen Hou is angry, he doesn't know Wen Hou's ability, and it is also an unintentional mistake, a little person, killing it seems that the lord is narrow-minded." ”

Lu Bu glared at Niu Dan and asked Liu Mu: "Don't you believe that Ben will be able to solve the problem of food and clothing?" ”

"I don't believe it."

"Don't you believe that Ben will be able to turn Qingzhou into a treasure land full of horses and cattle?"

"I don't believe it."

"Good, good, good, guts. Come on, keep him strictly guarded, let him clean the road at the gate of Xicheng, and let him see how Ben will keep the people of Jinan County fed. ”

Liu Mu didn't care, this kid had read a few books, and he had a little ability, so he wasn't afraid of cutting off his head, let alone sweeping the floor.

Lu Bu entered the city in the cheers of the people, five thousand and state iron cavalry almost covered the streets of the city, the cavalry entered the east gate and exited, and then came in from the west gate, and then went out from the north gate.

Which of these rich families is clamping their tails and being people, for fear of offending Lu Bu.

The county guard mansion was upgraded to the Thorn History Mansion, and Lu Bu lived in the Thorn History Mansion, next to the Changshi Mansion of the Chen Palace.

Needless to say, as soon as the next day dawned, a porridge shed was opened in front of the Assassin's Mansion.

Lu Bu and Mrs. Yan came to boil the porridge in person, and the boiled sorghum rice was old, and the red sorghum porridge tasted really average.

Rao is like this, and the people who can't eat have already lined up in a long line.

Mrs. Yan was puzzled, so she asked, "Husband, why do you use this old sorghum rice, and why don't you use it if there is a new one?" ”

"Aged sorghum rice, worms, and bad taste, such porridge is only eaten by those who really need it. If it is good food, there will be rich people who will come to eat this porridge. ”

Just when Lu Bu took his wife to put on a show, Chen Gong had already begun to plan.

Now Lu Bu has a total of more than 65,000 soldiers, and more than four or five strong men.

Wei Xu, the general under Lü Bu, led 5,000 infantry soldiers to take over the city defense, and the rest of the teams, even Lü Bu's 5,000 Bingzhou Iron Cavalry were also in the west of Jinan County.

In the army, Chen Gong and Chen Heng convened the generals to discuss things.

Hua Xiong, Zhang Liao, Hao Meng, Guan Hai, Wu Anguo and other generals didn't know what they were arranged, and they looked very important.

Chen Gong knocked on the table: "I called you over today to divide the vegetable land, five acres of vegetable land for every 100 people, calculate how many acres each need, and report the number to me." ”

Hua Xiong grinned: "This is not easy to do, my Xiliang soldiers, fighting wars, I'm afraid it won't work to grow vegetables." Wouldn't 10,000 people want 500 acres of vegetable land? If you can't plant, you can't plant. ”

"It's okay, you can't grow vegetables, you can eat in other camps, you just watch."

Zhang Liao also understood: "Strategist, why do you want to grow vegetables, isn't there enough food now?" ”

"That's what I said to the lord, but the lord said that a soldier who can't grow vegetables is not a good soldier, and planting vegetables can increase combat effectiveness, so you don't have to be entangled, just implement it."

"Okay, the lord has arranged it, and it's not good for us not to do it, but we need farm tools to grow vegetables, and we don't have many tools." Hua Xiong complained.

Guan Hai was disdainful next to him: "Tools, no tools to build, use wooden planks to make shovels, and the sharp wood to dig the soil." ”

Chen Gong ordered: "If you have tools to do, if you don't have tools, you have to do it, now follow me to the field, divide the boundary, and start digging the ground, within half a month, if there is no vegetable planted in the field, the general will be heavily punished with ten whips, don't blame me for not giving me mercy when the time comes, as for the tools, I have already ordered them from the blacksmith shop in the city." ”

The group followed Chen Gong to the vegetable field, dumbfounded, more than 3,000 acres of land, a large area, but it has been completely barren, and the grass is more than one person high. In fact, this was the land of the original big family, and later the big family was killed by the Yellow Turban Army, and the land was no one to manage it.

Chen Gong proposed: "Everyone drive the military horses over, graze these hay, and burn the remaining handful, and then measure and divide the boundary." ”

"That's very good."

First, after grazing for a while, the horses were very tricky at grazing.

Eat only the best hay, and then you have to start a fire and cut out the firebreak.

With the flames, more than 3,000 wastelands turned into land full of grass and ashes in just a few moments.

The battalions dispatched some men to start ploughing the ground, which was a complicated project, but it was difficult for the soldiers.
