Three Kingdoms: Cao Ying's mastermind, from nine to five

Chapter 49 Sorry, My Prefect Is Not Here

"Quickly tell me, it's a woman from the He family."

Liu Bei immediately became interested, and it is naturally good that he can find a good match among Xiaopei.

What's more, the more Liu Bei understands Xu Bowen's recent wind criticism, the more he wants to have a deep friendship.

Because no matter how you look at it, he is like another self in the world.

So Liu Bei is still quite concerned about Xu Zhen's matter now.

Jian Yong's expression was also excited, but he calmed down immediately, and said: "Among Xiaopei, there is actually a good husband who is famous for tens of miles in the village. The family name is Gan, and they are merchants of the common people. Gongyou must know."

"Oh?! Gongyou?"

Cao Cao looked at Sun Qian.

Sun Qian on the left side was taken aback for a moment, and after thinking about it for a long time, he suddenly realized that he clapped his hands and stood up with a smile on his face. It is said that he is extremely beautiful."

"Her family has always been known in Xiaopei for doing good deeds without asking for anything in return, so they have accumulated a lot of fame. Over the years, just talking among the sisters-in-law of each family is mostly praise."

"I've never heard of any unkind comments, so I'm considered one of the women's scouts."

Liu Bei didn't know what to say when he heard Sun Gan's evaluation.

Among the women who are waiting to be married, it is equivalent to a person who is recommended, that is not ordinary, how much popularity does it take to spread such a reputation.

Moreover, the sisters-in-law did not like each other's beauty, but they kept praising this woman's beauty. Isn't it rare in the world?

It made me want to ask for marriage.

Liu Bei used to have a wife at home, but she died many years ago.

Now is the time when no one cares.

At this time, Jian Yong persuaded again: "Such a good match, coupled with Xu Bowen's reputation, will surely make a good story in the future. If the lord can facilitate this, Xu Bowen will be deeply moved in the future."

"Perhaps, it's not too much to be grateful."

"A good relationship, but it's not because I deliberately flattered and flattered me, but Xu Bowen's upright style, strict self-discipline, diligent government and love for the people. After the lord is a member of the Han family, he is regarded as a true hero."

"Since that's the case, heroes cherish heroes, so how can you say flattery? This is a good match bestowed by the lord, just like asking for a marriage for your own brother."

Jian Yong's eloquence is indeed good, mainly because he has followed Liu Bei for too many years, he understands his intentions too well, and he also understands the tempers of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Therefore, it is clearly stated that this is not to flatter Xu Zhen, but to cherish heroes.

Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Liu Bei sat up a little more.

The faces of Guan and Zhang also suddenly looked good.

Otherwise, if a group of men are really discussing how to please Xu Zhen with a woman, the taste will be wrong, and if it is said that they are asking for marriage as a brother, then it will be different.

Liu Bei smiled, looked around and said, "Since that's the case, you should go to the next one to ask for a marriage. Xianhe will go to Juancheng to find Bowen and tell him about it."

"I'm going right now."

talking room.

Jian Yong turned around and left in a hurry, but soon he came back, and his steps were even more hasty.

"My lord, I have another message."

Liu Bei and the others were still discussing the matter of farming in the next spring, when they heard the news, they immediately raised their heads, "What's the matter?"

"Xu Bowen..."

"Oh, it's Xu Bowen again! Xianhe, you can't mention it less, the last time you drank with him, did he really give you ecstasy!?"

Zhang Fei's face darkened instantly.

Words are also impolite.

Jian Yong was so frightened that he quickly showed bitterness, smiled wryly and shook his head.

Seeing this, Liu Bei turned his head and glared at him, and said calmly to Jian Yong: "If there is any news, Xian will tell you."

Jian Yong clasped his hands and said, "Xu Bowen created a device for irrigating the farmland, which allows the river water from the lower part to flow to the higher part to form a pond, and then flow to various fields."

"Mr. Cao has ordered that it be widely promoted, so that all counties and counties in the territory can learn from it, and more than half of the manpower will be saved in the coming year."

"Oh!?" Zhang Fei was stunned, smacked his lips, and quickly smiled kindly, "Xianhe, I was a little loud just now, I'm sorry."

"This is a good thing. It needs to be mentioned. It should be mentioned more. This Xu Bowen can really be an official and save more than half of the manpower. Doesn't that mean that twice as much fertile land can be reclaimed?"

"Oh, that would mean double the harvest! If things go on like this, how much will the military rations have to be hoarded!? You won't have to worry about food for the war."

Liu Bei's face was very calm, as if he was thinking about something, especially after hearing Zhang Fei's words.

There is no need to worry about food in war.

If the people can eat enough, they will have the hearts of the people.

The reason why Emperor Ling was in chaos at the end was that the people did not have enough to eat.

Why Dong Zhuo was able to stabilize the situation when the harem was in trouble, but was later rebelled by the world. It was because the people were not full to eat, and Dong Zhuo refused to take out 30 stones of grain for the Babbler to relieve the disaster.

Eat well.

How important it is in troubled times.

This is the life of the common people.

With officials like Xu Zhen around, people can be resettled wherever they go, and they can farm and stockpile food, so it is very useful to win the hearts of the people.

"Xianhe, I will go find him with you!"

Liu Bei got up immediately and said in a deep voice.

"Second brother and third brother, come with me."

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked at each other, nodded secretly, got up and agreed.

Since you are a hero, you should meet him once.

……

Juancheng.

Diannong Institute.

It should be the government office now, but it's just a matter of Chen Liu.

Within a few days, Xu Zhen was still working on the construction of irrigation pipelines, and when they spread them to various places with the army and the people, Cao Cao didn't let him bother.

He ordered Xun Yu to send someone to expand the backyard of the Yamen Office by several houses and let Xu Zhen live in it.

He even gave more than a dozen beautiful maidservants in the mansion.

However, Xu Zhen did not accept it, but ordered one of the maidservants to manage it, taking into account the daily expenses, and asked to be diligent and thrifty, not to be extravagant and wasteful.

At this time, above the main hall, Dian Wei came back from outside and reported to Xu Zhen, "Prefect, that Duke Xuande came to visit him specially from Xiaopei."

"Mr. Xuande."

When Xu Zhen was in a state of desperation, the government affairs of a county were completely different from the size of a county in Juancheng.

More than several times more.

And complicated.

He also needs to get acquainted with officials from all over the country.

Fortunately, those people, after Zhang Miao's rebellion, have changed a group, most of them are Yingchuan celebrities and scholars recommended by Xun Yu, and Xun Yu is kind to recommend them.

Therefore, under special entrustment, he also obeyed Xu Zhen.

"not see."

Xu Zhen immediately refused.

"Let's just say... I'm not in the government office this time, I went to Chen Liu to take up my post, and I won't come back until I finish my official duties."

"Hey, good!"

……

Dian Wei came out, clasped his fists at Jian Yong in front of the door and said, "Sir, my prefect is not here."

"Prefect?"

Jian Yong was stunned.

"Why, is Bowen the prefect now?" That's completely different. This status is definitely not comparable to before, and it may not be so easy to see.

After all, the prefect has always been very busy, and Cao Cao will keep an eye on him even more closely.

Dian Wei smiled honestly: "The imperial edict has not yet arrived, but my lord first asked the prefect to take office in Chenliu, so I happened to go to Chenliu these days."

Regardless of his vicious and mighty appearance, like a King Kong glaring at him, Dian Wei still respects Confucian scholars and counselors with schemes in their hearts.

What's more, I had a drink with Jian Yong last time.

Liu Bei who was next to Jian Yong suddenly felt tense.

Too bad, it's still a step too late.

　A new day, ask for a new ticket
