Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 353 Refined Salt Ironware
The sky was full of wind and snow, and it lasted for three full days. The ground was covered with white snow, as if covered with a layer of silver-white coat.

The bustling city of Ye was extremely depressed in winter, merchants hid in inns or residences, waiting for the ice and snow to melt.

"Feng Xiao, the school affairs office is keeping an eye on Jiangdong, and must investigate the two methods of making refined salt and weapons."

In the lobby, Lu Bu said to Guo Jia with a solemn face, and Guo Jia sighed helplessly after hearing this, "My lord, refined salt makes huge profits, and weapons are the foundation of strength. I'm afraid these two places are not easy."

"It's not easy to get it. If you wait a few more years, Liu Bian of Jiangdong relies on refined salt to make huge profits. With rich financial resources and sophisticated iron-making methods, who can resist it?"

At this time, Lu Bu was holding an ordinary weapon obtained from Jiangdong in his hand, but the depths of his eyes were full of dignity.

This is the iron of refined steel!With the same weapons, he even cut three of the weapons of ordinary soldiers under his command before they broke. One can imagine the tragedy of encountering a large army on the battlefield in the future.

"Instruct Yang Lin to secretly explore the method of drying salt."

promise!
Looking at the broken weapon, the heavyness on Lu Bu's face was hard to hide, not only him, Guo Jia also knew this.

"By the way, there are still a few weapons in the mansion. They were sent to Jingzhou by Liu Biao and Yuan Shu. Don't wait until you are on the battlefield to find out."

promise!
The heavy expressions showed on the faces of the two of them. They were already shocked by the huge profits made by refined salt, and they were even more frightened by such sophisticated iron-making methods.

Sun salt can be roughly explored, but the difficulty of making refined iron is not one or two points. At this time, Lu Bu became even more annoyed, because he didn't understand these things in his previous life.

He only knows that the production of refined iron is due to the high heat of coal, and the smelting of iron ore produces less impurities, but the method is not difficult.

Guo Jia, who shook his head and sighed, left slowly. In the hall, only Lu Bu was staring at the broken weapon in his hand.

When Guo Jia's figure disappeared, Lu Bu sighed leisurely, but the weapon he had treated carefully was still aside like garbage, with a sneer flickering at the corner of his mouth.

Liu Bian, Liu Bian, if you summon military generals and civil servants, he may not be able to do anything, but these things hum.

Sneering, Lu Bu closed his eyes slightly, but the contents of new books appeared in his mind, among which were books made and forged with refined salt.

If he hadn't discovered it earlier, he might have been kept in the dark. As long as there are various books with written records in the world, the heavenly book will be reflected.

A black shadow slowly appeared in the silent hall. Lu Bu squinted his eyes and said softly with a blank expression on his face, "Send the order to strictly guard the blacksmiths in the mountain behind the racecourse. If anyone is found to be investigating or fleeing, they will be killed without mercy!"

promise!
After the black shadow disappeared, Lu Bu leaned gracefully on the large chair, squinting his eyes but not thinking.

The Book of Heaven is his secret, and no one will know it, but since he took control of Jizhou and looked down on the land of Hebei, the civil and military forces under his command have already had an air of arrogance.

Especially among the civil servants, they believed him too blindly. In the understanding of these civil servants, it seemed that as long as he was there, he would be invincible on the battlefield.

It happened that what Liu Bian did in Jiangdong could arouse a sense of fear and urgency in the hearts of the civil servants under his command. It is not wrong for the generals to be arrogant, because they still have a military knife hanging above their heads.

It didn't take long for this matter to reach the ears of other civil and military ministers. Some people disdain it, while others cautiously attract attention.

What he wanted was for this news to start spreading, and whether they believed it or not, what he wanted from Lu Bu's death order would attract the attention of other princes.

He didn't believe that there were no spies from other princes in Ye City, and when he thought of this, Lu Bu's mouth curled up into a smile of success.

Liu Bian, let the general find you something to do, so you won't have nothing to do.

If he found out early and let the princes of the world know about it early, he would not believe it. These princes could watch Liu Bian develop alone without envy.

At that time, the peaceful Jiangdong will become chaotic again. In a word, he doesn't want Liu Bian to develop with peace of mind for a moment.

The envoys secretly sent to Yuan Shu and Liu Biao were robbed. Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in Yanzhou had troops, but they only detained the envoys from the Son of Heaven for a few days and then released them.

But the dark turmoil began to lead to the land of Jiangdong, and people would not care about things that were too easy to get, especially since he had already sent out the seeds.

The seeds are spread widely in the world in order to allow the people of the Han Dynasty to leave more kindling. It takes three to five years for these grain seeds to ferment.

It can be said that he made a time difference, but the hot-eyed iron and refined salt aroused the greed of the princes from all walks of life, and they will find more hot-eyed things in Jiangdong.

The wind blows from Jiangdong, and none of the major princes is a fool, which will allow Liu Bian to develop steadily.

In the majestic and ancient General's Mansion, Lu Bu was wearing a white furry cloak, with a smile on his lips, feeding a robust eagle with fresh meat between his fingers.

"Hey, my lord, these eagles were trained by the barbarians outside the Great Wall. They are indeed extraordinary."

Although it was not the first time seeing it, Guo Jia still couldn't hide the joy in his heart and said with a smile.

This sentence can be said to have touched Lu Bu's heart, and he smiled with satisfaction: "Yes, it is this kind of beast that made countless soldiers return without success."

"On the prairie, every time our Han army goes on an expedition, the Hu people will always be the first to discover us. If we lose the enemy, they will hide away. On the vast prairie, the Han family lost countless money and food, and they have succeeded several times."

But Guo Jia sighed in pain, "But this kind of beast is too expensive."

Guo Jia, who is in charge of the school affairs office, knows the price to pay for these beasts, and has been doing business with the Hu people for several years, coercing and luring them to buy three eagle trainers.

Seeing Guo Jia's painful appearance, Lu Bu smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, the price will come back sooner or later."

When he said this, Lu Bu's eyes were even more murderous. After feeding the meat, he patted his hands lightly, turned to Guo Jia and said, "Feng Xiao, the school office did a good job this time. Ben will take good care of him, so he must master the method of falcon training."

"Don't worry, my lord, I have already ordered it, but this time it is all thanks to Wang Yue."

Lu Bu nodded lightly after hearing this, thinking that Queen Wang Yue, although she did not make much contribution on the battlefield, but the food stolen from Jiangdong and the slaves who trained the eagle, these contributions are already immeasurable.

"Tell Wang Yue that his credit will be remembered. As long as he works hard, he will be named a Marquis in the future."

Feng Hou!These two words echoed heavily in Guo Jia's ears, and his face was filled with a look of shock. The gold content of Fenghou is full.

But this time Lu Bu had already made it clear that after the hegemony was achieved, Wang Yue would be made a Marquis. Looking at Guo Jia who didn't understand, Lu Bu sighed lightly.

"Those miraculous seeds have made great contributions to the people of the world, and the training of the eagle will make our army almost fight in the future. I don't know how many casualties, and I will be a prince!"

promise!
