Three Kingdoms: Gou Shen I was overheard by Cao Cao

"I provide them with a safe business environment, so... I charge a little more money... Isn't it too much?"

Xia Houzhe nodded, the bandits are not wiped clean these days.

If you kill all the locals, maybe some refugees from other places will come over, and when they are desperate, they will choose to be bandits.

If we want to avoid this kind of thing, we can only make the country stronger, and everyone will have enough food and drink, so no one will risk their lives.

"This team can get one!"

Hearing this, Cao Cao winked for a while.

"Hey! I've already thought of the name of this team, it's called... Yunguan!"

Chapter 464 The Anomaly in Xiaohuang County

After leaving Xia Houzhe's house, Cao Cao started to expand the cement factory.

After half a month of busy work, the factory is ready to ensure mass production.

I went to Liu Xie again to hear the wind and asked civil and military officials to donate money to build the city wall!

Liu Xie was terrified of being abused by Li Que and the others. When he heard that the city was unstable, there was a large army to overwhelm the city.

Immediately scare people to donate money!

Those officials were very reluctant and did not want to donate money.

But under the watchful eyes of two excellent negotiators, Wang Yuedian and Wei, they could only dig out their pockets in distress.

Each sent someone to the family to bring the money.

No way without money!Whoever doesn't pay, these two fierce people will go to his house to drink tea and send warmth...

That big guy over two meters is really frightening!And it doesn't matter how serious it is, as soon as I sit in your house, the stool explodes.

With a wave of his hand on the table, the table exploded into pieces!

I'm afraid I'll make him anxious...I'll give you a pat on the head...I didn't even cry!Most importantly, if you don't sponsor the construction of the city wall, these two guys go to your house every day!

In their words, we are all colleagues in the same city, and we must move around more to deepen emotional exchanges!

Dian Wei Wang Yue used their extraordinary diplomatic skills to successfully win the sponsorship of civil and military officials.

Looking at everyone's donation of hundreds of gold, in a blink of an eye, it is more than ten thousand gold.

Cao Cao smiled gratifiedly. Looking at their expressions, there was only pain but no despair?That proves that the wool...hasn't been cleaned up yet, and it can continue next time!

Liu Xie also doesn't want to fall into the hands of others again. He is living a very comfortable life with Cao Cao now!

Compared with life in previous years, one is in the sky and the other is underground!

Every day, you can take the queen to dance on the first floor, and if you are hungry, you can go to the second floor for dinner!

There are still many tiger guards guarding him in the Jinjin Cave, so the safety factor is quite high!

And...cao Cao doesn't restrict him when he goes shopping!

He didn't know that the Tiger Guard camp was not only there to protect him, but also...to monitor him!He only thinks that Cao Cao cares about himself, the emperor.

With Cao Cao as his backer, Liu Xie realized that he was living like a human being after comparing with his previous life!

At the same time, Cao Cao would often come to greet him and report some work matters.

Seeing that the other party is so loyal, she didn't mean to threaten him, but always thought of him as the emperor!

Liu Xie was relieved, and Cao Cao made arrangements for major and minor matters!

In fact, this also gave both sides a step. In Chenliu, the people only recognized Cao Cao but not the emperor.

Liu Xie is also very helpless!

He didn't dare to ask Cao Cao for power and military power, for fear that he would overwhelm the other party and kill him in a fit of anger!

Time flies, another two months have passed, and it's hot summer in a blink of an eye!

Everything in Chenliu is developing steadily.

However, Liang Xi, who was working in the Xiaohuang County Government Office today, encountered something a little strange.

"You said...there are more locusts in the field in the eastern district these two days than before?"

Liang Xi frowned and looked at the servant in front of him.

Since joining Cao Cao and being appointed as Xiaohuang county magistrate, Liang Xi has been devoted to his duty!

They do everything by themselves, and attach great importance to people's livelihood and agricultural development.

He is using his own efforts to let Cao Cao know that he has not misjudged the person!

A scholar dies for his confidant!Liang Xi is a good portrayal.

Hearing the question, the yamen servant cupped his hands with a relaxed expression.

"That's right! There are a little more locusts than before, but it shouldn't be a big problem! It won't pose too much threat to the crops! Don't worry, my lord!"

Liang Xi sent people to inspect everywhere every day and came back to report.

He can be said to have insight into the changes in the fields.

Although the yamen servant said that the problem was not serious, judging by Liang Xi's cautious character, he always felt uneasy!

Many big accidents were caused by small negligence, he had to make sure everything was safe!

After thinking for a while, Liang Xi shook his head, got up from the office, and walked outside.

"No! It's almost the autumn harvest now, so don't be careless! This is related to the Lord's harvest this year, as well as the people's food reserves for the coming year!"

"Go, take me to have a look!"

Liang Xi knew how much Cao Cao cared about food. Now that there are so many troops in Yanzhou, the expenses are huge!

Cao Cao needs a lot of food for the army to use and fight.

His military strength is not top-notch, and he can't fight for Cao Cao to kill the enemy and sweep the Quartet!Merits are not enough to sit in the Quartet!

But he can do his best to provide Cao Cao with better logistical support and do his part for Cao Ying!This is also to thank Cao Cao for returning his mother's innocence and saving her life!

One drink and one peck, it is his principle to know how to repay kindness.

"Yes! My lord! Please come with the little one!"

The yamen servant immediately bowed and saluted, with admiration in his eyes.

With such a meticulous work attitude, Liang Xi won the hearts of the people after Xiao Huang took office!

No matter the officials or the people, they all admire his ability!Moreover, he is modest and never puts his authority on the people.

Under the leadership of the yamen servants, Liang Xi spent a day patrolling the farmlands in Xiaohuang.

In the field again, looking at the vegetables and crops all over the mountains and plains, as well as the hard-working people, Liang Xi felt a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in his heart!

Seeing Liang Xi coming, the people all smiled and greeted him.

"Master Liang! Come to inspect again? It's hard work!"

"Ang! Come and see! I can rest assured that you are doing well! This is my duty, there is no such thing as hard work or hard work!"

"Let's stop talking about it, being an official doesn't make decisions for the people, why don't we go home and grow sweet potatoes!"

Liang Xi replied with a smile, and the people working in the field all gave a thumbs up.

"Lord Liang is such a good official! As good as Master Cao, Mr. Xiahou!"

Liang Xi shook his head slightly: "I'm overrated! I'm not as good as those two adults! Because of their efforts, how many people have been saved from starvation! It's not an exaggeration to say that I am better than a saint!"

"By the way, Uncle Wang! I heard from the brothers in the yamen that there have been a lot of locusts in the past two days? What's going on? But I just checked a lot of places, but I didn't see any!"

Uncle Wang carried a load of water and poured it continuously in the vegetable field with a wooden ladle, with a gentle smile on his face.

"Oh! What are you talking about, my lord? Under the leadership of Mr. Cao, we have solved food and clothing, and we have raised a lot of chickens and ducks when we have surplus food at home!"

"The locusts were eaten by chickens and ducks! It's not a big problem! Thank you for your concern!"

Hearing this, Liang Xi nodded and made a joke along the way.

"Hey! Is there a lot of surplus grain? If you can't finish eating, you can sell me some! I don't have time to farm now!"

Uncle Wang waved his hand grandly: "Hey! Look at what your lord said? We would definitely not sell it to someone else, but Mr. Liang...we don't charge money!"

Liang Xi smiled and waved his hands again and again, just kidding, if he really wants to take things from the common people, he absolutely can't do it!

After all, his family's conditions are not very good!If it weren't for the ancestors to upload a cattle farm, I'm afraid it would be difficult.

"No, no, no! This can't be done. I still have it at home. Thank you, sir, for your kindness!"

"Huh? Isn't there a ditch in Uncle Wang's field? Why do you need to carry water to moisten vegetables?"

Uncle Wang and a group of people looked at the setting sun with helplessness on their faces.

"I can't help it! The sun is too strong, and it hasn't rained for a month! The water in the ditch is dry! We can only wait for the sunset to pick up well water to moisten the vegetables!"

"If there is water in the ditch, who wants to pick it?"

"It's like if your mother-in-law nourishes you, will you still go out with a stick?"

Liang Xi laughed loudly: "Uncle Wang, you are not serious again! Aren't you afraid that the mother-in-law at home will beat you up? That's fine, then you are busy! I'll go first!"

This group of half-aged old men just like to talk nonsense, Liang Xi is used to it!

There was nothing he could do about the drought, he dug ditches when he needed to, and he did what he needed to store water!

After leaving the field, Liang Xi always felt a little uneasy!

Food is the top priority. If he doesn't find out the reason for the increase in locusts, he may not be able to sleep peacefully!

But... thinking back and forth all night, he couldn't figure out why there were so many locusts.

According to today's investigation, not only the East District, but also other places in the county, this situation has also occurred.

I'm afraid... things are not that simple!

I tossed and turned in bed and couldn't fall asleep!Liang Xi simply packed up his things and prepared to go to Chenliu at dawn!

He's off to ask for advice!

Usually, when he was unsure about things, he would go to Chenliu to find Xi Zhicai and Xun Yu for help.

They are knowledgeable and can always give reasonable solutions!Every time he asks for advice, Liang Xi benefits a lot!

Chapter 465 Armored Convoy

Early in the morning before dawn, Liang Xi rode to Chenliu.

In Chen Liu's meeting hall, Cao Cao was having a meeting.

"Everyone, do you have anything important to report?"

"My lord! I have a battle report!"

Ju Shou held a letter and stood up with his hands folded.

Cao Cao nodded and signaled him to report.

"My lord! Gongsun Zan has suppressed the rebellion of Liu Yu's [-] to [-] old troops, killed more than [-] people, and captured [-] to [-] people! He drove their remnants to the border of Xianbei! Youzhou is now stable!"

Hearing this, everyone was full of emotion!

This skinny camel is bigger than a horse!General White Horse is still awesome!

Although Baima Yicong died nine out of ten, the remaining [-] cavalry in Youzhou should not be underestimated!Wherever it is placed, it is a powerful force!

"After the Battle of Longcou, although this Gongsun Zan is injured, he still has more than a hundred thousand troops! His strength is indeed terrifying! Among the many princes, he is still among the best!"

Cao Cao praised with a complex expression.

"By the way, what about Yuan Shao? What's going on recently? Isn't he going to Youzhou to make trouble for this shit-stirring stick?"

Hearing the question, Ju Shou spoke again!

"Yes! This guy is making trouble everywhere, and took advantage of Gongsun Zan to calm down the chaos and take back all the territory of Jizhou when he has no time to clone himself! Liu Yu's old troops have been released again! They have become victims of his strategy!"

"In addition... after the rebellion was resolved, Gongsun Zan couldn't hold back his breath, and led another [-] troops to attack Jizhou, and was defeated by Xu You, Zhang Yun and Wen Chou and Guo Tu! The remaining one or two thousand white horse righteous followers were wiped out by Huo Gong's entire army! "

"Gongsun Zan retreated back to Youzhou in a panic, and set up troops in Yijing. He is working hard to build the city wall, and he wants to collect food! I don't know what he wants to do."
