Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 62 Xu Shu came to vote
Xu Shu was taken aback when he heard that, he heard that Guan and Zhang are enemies, why does this black guy seem to care about farming?

"Dengjiazhuang Xiashou is busy, third brother, why are you running to cause trouble? Tell me to hold a banquet for Yuan Zhizhi to cleanse the dust and introduce him to everyone." Liu Bei said.

"I already know each other, so I'd better go to Dengjiazhuang to help with the work." Zhang Fei said.

"Third brother, listen to the elder brother's arrangement." Guan Yu also said.

Xu Shu asked puzzledly: "General Yide cares about farming, why should my lord stop him?"

After hearing this, Liu Bei shook his head and sighed: "Why is he going to help with the harvest? He is clearly thinking about the harvest feast of others."

Zhao Yun was standing there sternly, but when he heard Liu Bei expose Zhang Fei, he couldn't help but bark.

"Zilong, I think you didn't practice enough just now, why don't we go out and fight again?" Zhang Fei didn't dare to attack Liu Bei, so he turned his head to Zhao Yun to vent his anger.

Seeing that Zhao Yun didn't answer, Liu Bei thought that Xu Shu was very talented, but he didn't know what the fellow in Lantian thought.

"Since the third brother is going, let's go together. By the way, let Yuanzhi and Ziyu get to know each other. Zilong, please go ahead and inform." Liu Bei said, standing up.

"only."

Zhao Yun cupped his fists and wanted to leave, but Zhang Fei said first, "Brother, I will go with Zilong."

As soon as Liu Bei raised his hand, the two left happily.

Now Monk Zhang Er is puzzled by Xu Shu, wondering what the hell is Dengjiazhuang?Why do the two generals seem very happy?

"Second brother, tell someone to prepare an extra horse, and I'll take my wife with you." Liu Bei ordered again.

"I know bro."

After Liu Bei confessed, he took Xu Shu's hand and said, "Yuan Zhi's reception banquet, can I arrange it for you at the farm?"

Xu Shu looked puzzled, and then asked: "I saw that when Dengjiazhuang was mentioned, the generals all showed joy, and the lord also smiled. Could there be some mystery there?"

"Hahaha, Yuanzhi will definitely not be disappointed." Liu Bei laughed.

The two continued to chat for a while before going out. Gan Qian reminded on the way: "Husband, should we buy some wine and meat?"

Liu Bei laughed and said, "Ma'am, I'm worrying too much, Yide knows what to do."

When the group arrived outside Deng's Village, Xu Shu saw that nearly half of the millet seedlings in the field had been harvested, but they were all neatly harvested, looking very organized and disciplined.

"These fields are all neat and tidy, as if someone deliberately made it this way. I have traveled all over the years, and I have never seen such a scene. There are such people under the lord's rule, so we should make good use of them." Xu Shu sighed.

Liu Bei smiled and said, "Yuan Zhi sees the mystery now? Bei also thought that farming was quite simple at first, but after getting to know Ziyu, he realized that there are many ways in it."

"Just mentioned Ziyu in Xinye, who is it?" Xu Shu asked curiously.

"That's my brother-in-law, surnamed Lan, first name Tian, ​​style name Ziyu, who is currently the captain of Diannong, in charge of nearly a thousand people in Tuntian." Liu Bei explained.

Xu Shu suddenly realized: "No wonder it's so neat and uniform, someone did it on purpose."

"Let's go to the village, and I'll introduce you." Liu Bei said.

When everyone came to Dengjiazhuang, every household smoked, and the aroma of wine and meat wafted in the air, and the harvest feast at the end of the season began.

After the implementation of farming, Lantian occupied the good land of Dengjiazhuang, and recruited the tenant farmers on the farm to farm. Therefore, after the harvest, Lantian gave the Deng family a high compensation. The old owner Deng planned to reciprocate, and wanted to be the host today to invite the Lantian family to eat wine. .

But Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun came to the village with wine and meat in the morning, saying that a man named Xu Shu had come to join him, and they would come to the village with Liu Bei and the others for a harvest feast.

So Lan Tian had no choice but to push down Mr. Deng's invitation, and soon went to the kitchen to start working.

After discussing with Mr. Deng, Li Yang moved all the vegetables and meat prepared by himself to Lantian's kitchen, and Zhang Luo's mother-in-law and aunt came to help.

When Liu Bei and others arrived, four or five large tables had already been set up in the Deng family compound, among which the Deng family sat on two tables to chat, and Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun sat on one alone.

"It's so lively today." Liu Bei said to Deng Gong with a smile.

"General Liu," everyone greeted.

When Zhao Yun saw Liu Bei arrived, he stood up with a swipe, while Zhang Fei waved and said, "Big brother, second brother, come and sit down."

Liu Bei pulled Xu Shu to sit over and asked, "Where is Ziyu?"

"I'm busy inside, what I'm waiting for is his craftsmanship." Zhang Fei said.

"Ziyu is also good at cooking?" Xu Shu was full of doubts.

Zhang Fei snorted coldly after hearing this, and then drank on his own. Liu Bei immediately explained: "Ziyu's kitchen skills are better than farming."

"Don't swallow your tongue for a while." Zhang Fei added.

"Third brother, don't be rude." Liu Bei frowned.

Seeing that Liu Bei was really angry, Zhang Fei didn't dare to speak out to ridicule Xu Shu. At this time, the aroma of the dishes had already wafted over, and several mothers-in-law and aunts were bringing out large and small dishes.

When the dishes were almost finished, Lan Tian changed his clothes and came out to meet everyone.

Under Liu Bei's introduction, the two greeted each other with salutes, and Xu Shu and Lan Tian finally met.

Lan Tian was looking at Xu Shu, this person was older than him, he looked refined and refined, and he didn't know how much worse than Zhuge Liang.

Xu Shu is also observing Lantian, from Xinye to Dengjiazhuang, everyone praises him when he mentions it, even a warrior like Guan Zhang is convinced, this son must have something extraordinary.

After the harvest feast started, all the tables ate happily. After Xu Shu tasted the dishes, he really felt that the taste was extraordinary.

A simple farm banquet, the host and guest enjoyed the meal, most of the men, women and children were drunk, only Liu Bei, Lan Tian and Xu Shu were still sober.

Taking advantage of Xu Shu's absence, Liu Bei whispered in Lan Tian's ear, "Ziyu, do you think Yuan Zhi can be of great use?"

"I'll go for a walk in the countryside with him in a while, and we'll get to know him a bit before telling my brother-in-law," Lan Tian said.

"It's so good. I think the harvest is good this season. How long will it last?" Liu Bei asked again.

Lan Tian replied: "Some fields use my improved seeds, so the yield increases when it is less abundant. The tax that should be collected this season can be used by the soldiers of Xinye for a year."

"Did Ziyu count the 3000 people who surrendered during Anlu's suppression of the rebellion?" Liu Bei continued to ask.

"It's all counted, there is absolutely no problem." Lan Tianxin said that my calculations are conservative and rough, and if I really want to calculate carefully, it may be more than this number.

"Ziyu is really my Xiao Heye" Liu Bei was overjoyed after hearing this.

Liu Bei's beaming appearance was just seen by Xu Shu who had returned from Xiaojie, and his curiosity about Lantian increased again.

After the banquet, Zhang Fei and others stayed in the village to sober up because they were drunk.

Lan Tian invites Xu Shu to take a walk in the countryside. At this time, the south wind blows the ears of millet and creates golden waves in the unharvested fields.

The conversation between the two of them in the countryside was deeper than Xu Shu and Liu Bei's. They used soldiers to govern the country and have the economy and people's livelihood. Lan Tian basically talked about the general direction, while Xu Shu talked about the small details. In the end, both of them gained something from each other.

Walking through a field ridge, as if walking through a period of time and space, both sides have a feeling of admiration.

Lan Tianxin said that Xu Yuanzhi's reputation is well-deserved. Anyway, using military affairs to manage politics is definitely better than a layman like me. Before Kong Ming came out of the mountain, you can take the lead.
