Chapter 517 Zhuge Liang
The new city covers an area of more than ten square kilometers. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, such a city was really not small, almost comparable to that of Xuzhou city. Because the arrangement is quite compact and reasonable, most of them are based on small residential units with a hundred square meters as the standard, so there are more than 100,000 residential units of different sizes in the city. million people.
The basic sewers and streets and alleys have been built. The cement that was successfully trial-produced more than two months ago is also put into the construction of the new city for the first time. Although the output is not much, there are only a few applications on the city wall. Let the city wall become stronger.
It is said that engaging in real estate is indeed quite profitable, but by selling the commercial land in the city, all the money invested in before has been earned back, and a lot of money and grain have been paid out. The residential area has just started to be sold. Although the price is not high, the most important thing is that the quantity is large, and the income is quite considerable if all of them are sold, and there is no need to worry about selling.
As the largest and safest city within hundreds of miles nearby, it is quite tempting for ordinary people in this chaotic world. Even if you want to buy land in the new city, you have to go through identity verification, such as those who participate in the construction of the city. Refugees, businessmen and military families who contributed money and effort to the city construction, etc...
Li Yunfei has all kinds of means to mobilize people's power reasonably without wasting money. Xu Zhe, who is in charge of account management, is dazzled by all kinds of money-making methods. It came quickly, and it was those merchants who took the initiative to send money and food.
Speaking of Xu Shu, I have to say that his life in the past two or three months has been quite nourishing. Li Yunfei has a lot of trust in him, and now he is in charge of the money and food for the construction of the new city for Li Yunfei.
What touched him the most was that Li Yunfei personally sent a small team of tiger guards all the way north to Xuchang to pick up his old mother, so now he is determined to follow Li Yunfei to do a great job.
Xu Shu is a very loyal person. When he was young, he once killed someone to avenge his friends, so that he was almost beheaded when he was caught. In the past ten years or so, she has been incognito and has suffered a lot, but after defecting to the lord, she has been greatly valued. The public treats me as a gentleman of the country, and I will repay him as a gentleman of the country. Although he didn't say this, he proved that he did so with his actions.
He knows that he has limited talent and learning, and is not good at strategy. He can only see the tactics in front of him. The same is true for Chen Gong, a counselor far away in Xuzhou. For a while, he has been trying to invite Kong Ming, who is very good at long-term strategic deployment, but unfortunately he has sent several letters, but he has not responded. Maybe the effect is not very good, and he is considering whether to invite the lord to do it himself. to hire someone...
In fact, what Xu Shu didn't know was that Zhuge Liang was still persuaded by several consecutive letters, and decided to come out to observe whether Lu Wenhou, whom Xu Shu praised as a flower, was really a wise master.
Now Zhuge Liang is still a young man who has just turned 20 (Xu-year-old), it is impossible to say that he has no skill, but the world is so messy that he has not met anyone worthy of help.
Xu Shu seldom praises people like this, but now he is full of praise for Lu Wenhou, so even if he has heard about how dirty Lu Bu is before, he still has some doubts, then what Xu Shu said is right, hearing is believing, and it is best to come here in person look at the situation.
This journey is very touching and still very big. The Han Dynasty, which has been maintained for hundreds of years, has long existed in name only. The people are in dire straits.
But when we arrived in Lujiang County, the situation changed a lot. Many people who escaped from the disaster had happy smiles on their faces. When they talked about Lu Wenhou, they were full of praise, and the praise was definitely from the bottom of their hearts. It also gave him a new understanding of Lu Wenhou, who has both reputation and reputation.
What makes Zhuge Liang most curious is that the world is in chaos. This Marquis Lu Wen is still building a city in Lujiang, so doing the opposite, did not cause the people to complain?
Zhuge Liang stood on a hillside a few miles away from the city, and looked at the towers of Lujiang New City from a distance. The city wall had been completely built, and soldiers could even be seen patrolling the city wall.
From time to time outside the city there is a team delivering building materials, constantly transporting all kinds of building materials into the city. The city is like a big construction site, full of people who are busy building houses. Xu Shu is not exaggerating, he really used dozens of With a manpower of 10,000, and everyone is very active, there is no need for sergeants to supervise and supervise the construction, but the construction efficiency is relatively excellent. From this point of view, Lu Bu is indeed very popular.
It's just that why are there more buildings outside the four city gates? However, although having those buildings makes entering and exiting the city gate a bit cumbersome, it has greatly increased the defense of the city. It is indeed an excellent initiative...
"Don't move, raise your hand!" A voice suddenly shouted from behind, but it startled Zhuge Liang.
He hurriedly turned around and saw several very beautiful girls, but these girls were staring at him with their long swords out of their sheaths, as if the visitors were not kind...
"Excuse me, girls, where did I offend you all, and why did I raise my hand?" Zhuge Liang hurriedly bowed his hands and asked back.
Of course, this group of women's army was none other than the Phoenix Legion that Lu Lingqi had just created. Although it was called the Legion, there were only more than two hundred people in the CCP. They were all girls, aged between fourteen and twenty. Since its establishment, it has been supported by a lot of money and food from Li Yunfei, but it is a pity that there are very few women who are willing to serve as soldiers and it is difficult to recruit people.
"...Captain, this man is very humane, it doesn't look like Jiangdong's elaboration!" Seeing Zhuge Liang's handsome appearance, one of the girls couldn't help but whispered.
"Little girl, if you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. It is said that Zhou Lang from Jiangdong is also a personable person, and he speaks politely. If you judge people by their appearance, how can you make contributions to my Phoenix Army in the future?" Lu Lingqi was a little unhappy. Having said that, although the person in front of me is quite handsome, it is absolutely not acceptable to judge someone by their appearance.
"Captain, don't be angry, Xiao Nizi just hasn't seen the world!" Another girl helped to explain.
"It turns out that all the heroines regarded me as a fine work. I am not from Jiangdong but from Jingzhou, so..." Zhuge Liang, a smart man, figured out the situation in a blink of an eye, and explained directly.
"So, you are the secret agent of Jingzhou?" Lu Lingqi asked directly.
"No, no, I'm just a farmer!"
"The devil will believe that you are a farmer. Come with me obediently. My father is the most powerful. Can you see through it at a glance?"
"... Miss Lao is leading the way!" Zhuge Liang was not very worried. Since these girls belonged to the Xuzhou forces, if necessary, just ask Xu Shu to come out and explain.
"Well, you are quite polite, but don't try to run away. Let me tell you, all of us have practiced martial arts, and these swords are made of refined steel that are refined and very sharp!" Lu Lingqi swung There was a whistling sound from the sword before it was put away.
"I understand that the young lady is very heroic. She is a master of swordsmanship at first glance. Naturally, I dare not make mistakes..." Zhuge Liang's eloquence is very good. guest.
He is handsome, literary, and eloquent, so he soon became friends with a few girls who were not very scheming, and even when they arrived at the foot of the mountain, the girls had already changed their names to Mr.
I also roughly figured out the identities of this group of people. To be honest, I was surprised that this female general turned out to be Lu Wenhou's precious daughter, and she might have to face Lu Wenhou directly. Whether to muddle through and get away, or to meet the lord directly, can only be decided after a detailed discussion with the other party.
It is said that people are not as good as heaven, but they just came here to find out. I didn't expect to be caught by the other party's daughter. It's really embarrassing to speak out.
...
"Master, Miss Qi'er has done some meritorious service today. She just sent someone to inform that she caught a very suspicious person during her training and patrolling. He has already taken him to her camp. Master, please go over and appraise it." The foot trainer hurriedly ran into Li Yunfei's room to report the situation.
"Qi'er actually arrested someone, it's really rare...Anyway, I'm done with today's work, so I might as well go and have a look." As he said that, he walked directly outside, and the trainer hurriedly followed.
Now her status is a bit special, although in name she is a servant in charge of sorting out documents, in fact, everyone in the mansion calls her Miss, but she regards herself as the master's concubine, although she has not really served...
"Girl, do you want to go too?" Just as he was about to get on the horse, he saw Xiao Bu following behind, hesitant to speak.
"...Master, I haven't seen Miss Qi'er for a few days, I miss you so much!" Bu Lianshi found a very reasonable reason, but in fact, she just wanted to follow Li Yunfei.
"That's fine, but it's really troublesome to prepare a carriage at such a short distance, let's get on the horse!" He said, holding the man on the back of the horse, and turning himself on the horse.
"Thank you, master...Is this slave girl's favorite riding with the master?" Xiao Bu said excitedly. There are really few people in the world who are lucky enough to ride with the master. She was a little excited, unconsciously. They rubbed back and forth on Li Yunfei's body.
"Don't move around, sit down obediently, my master wants an escort car!" An arm suddenly hugged the man, and at the same time clamped the horse's belly, Chituma got the master's intention and galloped away in an instant.
