Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 92: Contradictions

The newlyweds are naturally as sweet as honey, and Wang Yi, who has just tasted the joy of men and women, is no exception.

And Lu Bu also liked the little concubine who was full of vigor and vitality of a young girl, but what surprised him was that although this young girl enjoyed this married life, she was rarely obsessed with it. Every morning, she would urge Lu Bu to get up on time , go to do official business or practice martial arts, and occasionally discuss the situation with Lu Bu.

Although she was a woman, Lu Bu felt that Wang Yi was stronger than his elder brother Wang Ling in terms of knowledge and knowledge.

Today, I discussed with Wang Yi on the bed what the people of Xiliang should do for a living and how to make them rich. Wang Yi's idea was actually quite consistent with Lu Bu's idea of ​​promoting business.

"Madam is really a daughter. If Madam is a man, he will have no problem getting in at sunrise." Lu Bu looked at his little concubine in amazement. His fair skin seemed to be shining with holy light under the dim light, calling Lu Bu couldn't put it down.

"Husband, don't make fun of my concubine." Although he has been married for more than a month, being stared at by Lu Bu still makes Wang Yi a little shy and dare not look at him. She is also like an ordinary woman from afar, and it is also the time when Lu Bu is most attracted.

Although the newlywed life is pleasant, it is impossible for Lu Bu to be lingering in the bed with the little concubine every day. Wang Yi is a very general woman in this regard, and even takes the initiative to dissuade Lu Bu if he thinks that Lu Bu is a bit too unrestrained. At this time, there will generally be no more messes.

In fact, occasional profligacy is unavoidable for most men, but with Wang Yi, Lu Bu's daily life will become more regular.

Zhang Liao set off and went to Wuwei. The next step is to get busy with the affairs of the four counties in Hexi. Lu Bu placed the Bingzhou Army and the Qiang Army that followed Zhang Liao under Zhang Liao's command. The branch of Gao Shun, Lu Bu will bring it back in the future.

The new year has passed, and there has been a lot of snow in the Tianshui area throughout the winter. The harvest in Longxi will not be bad in the third year of Chuping.

However, I heard that there was a snow disaster in Guanzhong. Lu Bu wrote to the imperial court a few years ago, hoping to introduce some refugees who could not be resettled to Xiliang, which can not only enrich Xiliang, but also reduce some of the burdens in Guanzhong. It's about to explode, Lu Bu not only helped him clear Xiliang, but also willing to help him solve these refugee problems, he was naturally happy, but besides being happy, he was naturally dissatisfied with Lu Bu's lingering in Xiliang, and his reluctance to return to the court after victory .

Faintly, Dong Zhuo felt that Lu Bu was a bit out of control. Of course, for him, the most important thing was to solve the immediate urgent need and prevent scenes of starvation everywhere in Guanzhong. As for Lu Bu's problem, he will settle it slowly in the future Liang is the site where Dong Zhuo started his family, how can Lu Bu be allowed to be presumptuous?

These refugees have been going to Longxi since October, and Lu Bu has already divided the land here. Although Xiliang is poor, there are still many places that can be cultivated, but the food produced is small, but for most people For the refugees in Guanzhong, it is enough to give them a way to survive.

In this way, more than 200,000 refugees poured into Longxi and Tianshui at once, and there are still a steady stream of refugees pouring in here.

"My lord, if this goes on like this, our food and grass will not be enough!" Jiang Yuan went to Lu Bu and complained. It is not a good thing that there are too many refugees. Although Xiliang needs people, so many people poured in all at once. The food and grass can't be used.

"Then we won't help the refugees." Lu Bu shook his head and said.

"This..." Jiang Yuan looked at Lu Bu in surprise. He just hoped that he would stop extraditing refugees to Xiliang, but there was no need to be so ruthless: "My lord, this may cause a civil uprising."

"That's not the case. I'm going to take advantage of this time to dredge the river, reclaim new land, repair or build some cities to accommodate these people. These are theirs. We provide food, and they contribute. Relief with work." Lu Bu shook his head. Shaking his head, he said, in the current Xiliang, under Lu Bu's planning during this period, there are a lot of projects to be done, but the population of Xiliang is withering, and these foreign population just make up for it.

The concept of relief with work was also developed by Lu Bu's arrogance. To be precise, it was used by his father Lu Boyong in the simulated world. As long as there is a certain amount of food and grass, this relief with work can continue.

"The reclaimed farmland is counted as official land, and will be directly controlled by the government office in the future, and cannot be bought or sold." Lu Bu added.

"This..." Jiang Yuan frowned slightly. This decree was obviously aimed at the gentry in Longxi. Although the reclaimed land was also thin and barren, this decree surprised Jiang Yuan. Although Lu Bu now relies on They are Xiliang gentry, but they are not controlled by them.

Lu Bu turned his head, looked at Jiang Yuan and said, "The common people have a way to live, and you don't have to stare at this place. In the future, when I enter the Guanzhong, I will have good land to share with you."

The 800 miles of fertile land in Guanzhong is now in the hands of the gentry in Guanzhong. Lu Bu wants to set taxes again. If he tells the gentry in Guanzhong that they will definitely not accept taxation based on the amount of land occupied. Dong Zhuo’s experience before Lu Bu is vivid in his memory. If the gentry of Longxi were involved, even if taxes were levied on the land, they would still be the beneficiaries, so they would naturally be willing.

However, Lv Bu was able to take this opportunity to recover a large amount of tax rights, at least above the land tax, and Lv Bu would not be as passive as Dong Zhuo is now. The fundamental reason is that they chose different targets. For the most powerful group of people, even if Dong Zhuo holds the military power and the power to appoint and remove personnel, all Dong Zhuo can use is within their circle. As long as Dong Zhuo still wants to employ people, he has to compromise with them a little bit.

And Lu Bu chose to jump out of that top circle to develop in Xiliang, and win over those Xiliang nobles who Dong Zhuo doesn't like, and those Guanzhong nobles who don't like it. Although they are not far apart, they are two circles. Lu Bu is very clear about this. , and it was precisely because of this that he decided to come to Xiliang and make this place his foothold.

He can bring the gentry here what they want, but if Lu Bu wants to make friends with those important people in the court, he can only give Dong Zhuo's head, which is the only thing that can impress them. It is also something that can drive Lu Bu into eternal doom.

So Lu Bu chose to leave decisively at the beginning, and the facts are as Lu Bu expected. After he opened up Xiliang and mastered the Silk Road, he quickly won the support of these Xiliang scholars, even though Lu Bu's actions are actually hurting Xiliang. The gentry were based in Xiliang, but it didn't matter, what Lu Bu promised them was to share the interests of Guanzhong. In the face of such a huge temptation, it was acceptable for everyone to distribute Xiliang's small profits to Lu Bu.

Of course, what Lu Bu wants to establish is a long-term and stable interest chain, so even after taking Guanzhong in the future, it is impossible to give all the fertile land in Guanzhong to these families, and the most important thing is that Lu Bu will make a fuss about the tax law and cannot Too radical, lest these families give up on themselves or stand on the opposite side of themselves. Now they want to fight for the world. Lu Bu needs the support of these families, but he must not give up all the benefits. Let go, this is the most stupid way.

"The lower officials have no such intentions, but it will take time to raise this batch of food and grass, and it will be difficult to support the Lord to go out in a short period of time." Jiang Yuan sighed.

"It doesn't matter." Lu Bu smiled. The next time he wants to move, he will also move Gao Shun's men and horses. As for food and grass, as long as he reaches Chang'an, he will have it. Take control.

People's hearts will change at every stage. If you want to control people's hearts for a long time without being controlled by others, the game between the two sides will not stop, and once you embark on this road, it will be difficult to stop, just like now.

Jiang Yuan nodded, said goodbye and left, ready to raise food and grass with everyone to support Lu Bu's work-for-work relief. After Jiang Yuan left, Lu Bu just picked up a roll of bamboo slips and opened them, frowning at the contents on the bamboo slips.

It was a normal thing for Li Jue and Guo Si to return to court to ask for merit after following Niu Fu's victory over Zhu Jun, but because it had been snowing in Guanzhong since winter, and since spring began, it was also due to the constant rain. He has been stranded in Chang'an, and has never left Chang'an to return to Niu Fu's command.

This is a very normal piece of information, and the content is not surprising. After all, there is constant rain and snow in Guanzhong, but the road is difficult.

But it's difficult to do it doesn't mean it can't be done, but for the two of them, the leader is out and able to plunder the Quartet, and they don't have the opportunity to stay in Chang'an, but the two chose to stay in Chang'an instead of rushing back. This is a problem. .

Wang Yun failed to win him over, so he went to win over these two instead?

Lu Bu is not sure. If so, it would be interesting. Based on Lu Bu's understanding of the two, the two people's buttocks are not very clean. There is a high probability that Wang Yun will start in this regard. After intimidation, it should be a lure, but after that ? Lu Bu suddenly wanted to go back to Chang'an to see how this drama would develop.

"Husband, why worry?" Wang Yi came behind Lu Bu, helped him take off his coat, let him lie in his arms, put his slender fingers on Lu Bu's temples, rubbed and pressed his temples gently, so that Lu Bu could feel better Some.

"Madam, if you are the Minister of Chang'an, how do you win over the generals under the Grand Master's command?" Lu Bu suddenly asked with his eyes closed, enjoying the fragrance of his beautiful concubine.

"It depends on how these generals are. Lustful people use sex to lure them, and money-hungry people use profit to lure them. In addition, if they can grasp some clues, they can also threaten and profit. In short, from my own point of view, if there is such a thing, the Grand Master will It is extremely difficult to guard against, if it can induce conflicts between the two parties, that would be great!" Wang Yi laughed, what he said was roughly consistent with Lu Bu's speculation, which surprised Lu Bu, as this little concubine of himself has a good eye for strategy ah.

"It's really my good fortune to have my wife!" Lu Bu turned over and pulled up the bed curtain amidst Wang Yi's exclamation...
