Chapter 82: Should I Marry a Daughter-in-law?

Lu Bu took it and took a look, this little doll is really sturdy, she doesn't cry or make trouble, she spits bubbles and plays, no wonder it's called aluminum alloy.

Yan reminded beside him: "Husband is covered in dust, let's go change clothes first." ”

Lu Bu saw that there was still blood stains on his battle armor: "Oh, hehe, I forgot." I'll just go change my clothes. ”

Lu Bu walked to the door and came back, and arranged for the Yan family: "Madam, don't let Chen Gong name Chen Gong next time we have a child." ”

"Why, Chen Gong is quite knowledgeable."

"It's better to name a child a little smaller, and the name of the public stage is too big."

"Okay, the concubine remembers."

Lu Bu suddenly remembered that the Cai family in Donglai County had been for several months, and immediately decided to send someone to send her something and wrote a handwritten letter.

I didn't see each other in March, and it was needless to say that Diao Chan gathered in the evening.

When he got up in the morning, Lu Bu was refreshed, took off his heavy armor, and changed into silk casual clothes.

Dian Wei came back and took a vacation, because Zang Ba's sister was going to marry, and there were a lot of things that needed to be prepared, after all, Zang Ba was a wealthy family in Taishan, and marrying a sister was very important.

Zhao Yun is under a lot of pressure to follow Lu Bu as a personal guard, and everyone looks like a bad person.

The two rode horses and took a few carriages to the shack village in the west of the city, which is a naturally formed refugee village, they are different from Tunding, Tunding has two meals a day, they have no security, the labor force in the prime of life lives by doing odd jobs, and it is only these women and the elderly who have no support at home to suffer.

Next to the haystack at the entrance of the village, a young mother in her early twenties is basking in the sun with a child about two years old.

The cloth clothes worn by the women should be the coarse cloth clothes issued by the government in the summer, and now that it is cold, the women will shiver from the cold.

Lu Bu came over and asked, "Why don't you have winter clothes?" What about the men in your family, how do you take care of women? ”

"The women have seen the adults." When the woman saw Lu Bu, she hurriedly saluted.

Lu Bu is also very depressed, others can still serve private interviews, he is too conspicuous, and others can see it at a glance wherever he goes.

"There are no men among the women, and the children were left behind by the rebels. My mother's family doesn't want me, and I don't have anyone to marry, so I can only accept relief here to live. ”

Lu Bu was speechless for a while, each with his own suffering.

"Do you know how to do needlework?"

"Yes, women will be popular since they were young."

"In this case, then you can organize the women of the village and sew a leather jacket for each person in the village."

At this time, Li Zheng came, Chen Gong's work was still very efficient during this time, and many people in the village had detailed statistics.

There were three hundred and sixty people on the roster, but in fact there were three hundred and seventy-two, and more than a dozen children were born during this time.

Three hundred and seventy-two cooked sheepskins were sent down, and this woman organized the women to make sheepskin jackets for everyone.

Zhao Yun couldn't help but sigh: "Lord, it turns out that so many sheepskins are going to be sent to the people who don't have winter clothes to wear." ”

"Of course, what's the use of me keeping it, it's naturally reserved for the victims."

Lu Bu beckoned to Li Zheng over: "I see that there are more women in your village, most of these women are from the city, they can't grow crops, they can't breed, and the government only helps the emergency and not the poor, do you have any ideas?" ”

Li Zheng scratched his head, and Lu Bu didn't want to answer his question.

"The villain has a few ideas, one is to let these women have a long-term job, so that they will have a stable income, food and drink are guaranteed, better than anything else. Second, that is, let these women remarry, this is the best way out. They were all young, some were widows, some had been plagued by the rebels, and they lived under the contempt of the people. If it weren't for government relief, they wouldn't have survived. ”

Lu Bu nodded: "It makes sense, it seems that we should set up a few more female workshops, so that we can help more women." ”

Since this spring, Qingzhou has vigorously developed sericulture, but this is not enough. It also needs hemp spinning and cotton spinning.

Hemp has hemp, cotton has not yet been discovered, but it should be found, I heard that there is a kind of seed in the Western Regions.

Lu Bu thought of the Jenny machine, remembered that this thing was very simple, and went back to draw it for Ma Jun to try.

When I arrived at the next village, this was the original village in Qingzhou, and the people were relatively better.

Although the village is also very backward, the chickens and dogs are peaceful.

There are not many people in this village who need to distribute sheepskins for winter, only a dozen elderly people who are helpless, and most of the other families are about the same, and their lives are passable.

Because Qingzhou encourages pig raising, many people have pigs in their yards, some have two, some have three, and some hard-working farmers have four or five pigs.

Many people asked: "This is all idle farming, when will we start building roads and digging rivers?" ”

Lu Bu smiled and asked, "Why do you care so much about road construction?" ”

"I'm not afraid of adult jokes, as long as the road is built, the government has to take care of the food, and my family's food will be saved."

"Haha, that's right, people's livelihood is difficult, but it will get better soon. During this time, the government was distributing winter clothes to the poor people, and soon they would start working. In addition, there are big moves, so get ready. ”

After a few days of rest, 200,000 sheepskins were brought in from the north and distributed to the impoverished people in the counties, sending a touch of warmth to the poorly clothed people.

Now the population under Lu Bu's jurisdiction is as many as 3 million people, not counting the large eastern tribe, which is really the strength of the princes of one side.

Early in the morning, in the camp of the Chinese army, there were only five people in the secret meeting of Lu Bu, Chen Gong, Li Su, Yu Ban, and Zhang Liao.

Dian Wei and Zhao Yun were on duty outside the door, and no one was allowed to enter.

Lu Bu first arranged a task for Li Su.

"Take my handwritten letter, give a heavy gift, go to Yuan Shao in Jizhou, and befriend Yuan Shao. In addition, you will be given a thousand taels of gold, and you must do a good job in trade with Jizhou, and you can complete the task. ”

Li Su scratched his head: "There are difficulties, but I promise to complete the task." ”

"Okay, then let's go, lead a hundred cavalry over, be careful, don't pretend to be big-headed, pretend to be a grandson, understand?"

"Understood, understood. I understand what my lord means. ”

Li Su took the task and left, Yu Ban didn't understand: "Lord, we are obviously strong and strong, why do we have to pretend to be a grandson." ”

Lu Bu smiled and did not answer.

Chen Gong picked up the tea and drank a sip of Longjing.

"Wen Ze still doesn't have to think about it, and it needs more experience."

Zhang Liao pointed to Yanzhou: "Cao Cao is fighting hard, and sooner or later there will be a battle." Although our Qingzhou is strong and strong, it can't support two-front battles, so we can't make too many enemies. ”

Yu Ban suddenly realized that he still thought about it less, and there was a gap between him and the top military divisions.

Lu Bu coughed: "Let's discuss a problem, the Kebi Department has brought hundreds of family members over, and there are also non-commissioned officers in our army who are considering whether they can marry a daughter-in-law." In the short term, marrying a daughter-in-law and having children will cause him to have concerns about fighting a war, which is not conducive to the development of combat effectiveness. But in the long run, the soldiers should still have offspring. Everyone spoke freely and talked about their thoughts. ”
