My husband Zhuge Kongming

Huang Yueying and a few people perfected the details and plans, and finally mentioned a little bit.

"Although the Qinghui Road in Jingzhou has been roughly completed, there are still many places left." Huang Yueying said, "Ah Chu hopes that the state capital can organize the construction of the rest of the Qinghui Road."

Liu Cong frowned, "It's a huge expense."

"Yes, but, except for the main official road, the rest of the Qinghui road can be built a little narrower. In this way, the consumption will be reduced. Besides... Jingzhou has a lot of food in the past two years, so there is no need to worry about such an expense."

Liu Cong did not make a decision, but looked at Kuai Yue and Cai Mao.

Kuai Yue thought about it, and looked at Huang Yueying, "Maybe Ah Chu can give a reason? It is true that Qinghui Road will be repaired sooner or later, but there is no need to rush it."

Cai Hao also agreed that instead of using money and food to let the people build roads, it is better to use money and food to recruit more soldiers.

Huang Yueying sighed, sometimes, people in this era may not be able to see particularly long-term things.

"Like Yizhou, the counties that Jingzhou can directly control are only Nanjun and Jiangxia at first, right?" Huang Yueying asked.

Several people nodded.

"But now, soldiers from all counties can be mobilized. What's the reason?"

"It is the work of Chu paper made by Ah Chu."

"No," Huang Yueying shook her head, "It's for profit, and the Jingzhou family is willing to obey."

Several people nodded again.

Because Kuai Yue and Cai Mao would listen to Liu Biao's instructions, in fact, it was the Kuai family and the Cai family who invested in Liu Biao before. Since it is an investment...of course there are common interests.

"But the world is so big, is it due to the large population of common people, or the large population of aristocratic families?"

"I'm a common people." Liu Cong replied without hesitation.

"The aristocratic family controls the place, and the voice of the people can't reach the state capital." Huang Yueying sighed, "The uncle and uncle are better off. Before the Nanman rebellion, Ah Chu and his uncle led troops to see the local people with their own eyes. suffering..."

Kuai Yue also sighed, although he is a member of the aristocratic family, he is also a real scholar after all, and he still has benevolence towards the common people.

"Now that the official roads from the prefectures to Xiangyang have been built, what about the official roads from the prefectures to the counties? What about the official roads from the counties to the townships and lis? If the remaining roads are not built, the imperial power will not go to the countryside. If the order of the state capital does not go down to the county, the state shepherd will become deaf or blind?"

"If that's the case... then we want to fight with..." Liu Cong widened his eyes, looked at Kuai Yue and Cai Hao, and swallowed the second half of the sentence, do you want to start a war with the aristocratic family?

Huang Yueying shook her head, "Not exactly."

Cai Mao looked at Huang Yueying, "Ah Chu means..."

"Only by truly communicating with the mountains and wild places can the family gain the most fame and fortune."

"Oh?"

"It's not easy for the people in the mountains to have a full stomach. How do you know the benefits in the mountains? For example, today a small person got a ginseng plant, but he didn't know its value, so he used it himself..." Huang Yueying gave an example very simply.

"The loss...is pretty big." Cai Mao agreed.

"But if these medicinal materials can be brought into the hands of aristocratic families or medical centers, will the benefits be greater?"

"indeed."

"Furthermore, only when the laws and decrees are truly sent to the countryside can the state shepherd guard the people for the emperor." In this sentence, Huang Yueying looked at Liu Cong and said, "If the Qinghui Road can be connected to all townships... maybe we can find For many civilian households, even recruiting soldiers will be much easier."

From the perspective of interests, she first got Kuai Yue and Cai Mao, who are the sons of aristocratic families, to agree to part of it, and then from the perspective of power, she got Liu Cong to agree.

After a long while, Liu Cong said, "What Ah Chu said is reasonable, but building roads is not something that can be accomplished overnight..."

"This plan can be completed within three years." Huang Yueying smiled.

A few people breathed a sigh of relief, within three years, it will be fine, and the finances of the State Shepherd's Mansion will not be so tight.

"The most important thing is that there is a new gadget on Achu Zhuangzi... If you want this gadget to run, you have to make all kinds of roads smooth."

……

After discussing the details of the construction of Qinghui Road with a group of people, Huang Yueying left the State Shepherd's Mansion and went to her own mansion to rest.

She must take Yizhou and Jiangdong.

Best of all, it was during these two years, so no matter whether it was Jingzhou or Ganning, the pressure was not small.

On the other side of Yizhou, you can use the excuse of helping Liu Zhang to plunder the land, wait until the world is unified, and then use Liu Zhang, who is also a clan member, to continue leading the Yizhou herdsmen.

It's just whether Yizhou can be persuaded to come, she believes that under the offensive of fame and wealth, she will not be unable to persuade.

Historically, Liu Zhang could still listen to some people's suggestions... let Liu Bei enter Shu.

Now, she felt that Liu Zhang would still agree to the conditions given by Jingzhou.

After all, Liu Biao's reputation is at stake here, and the situation is at stake here, drawing a big cake for Liu Zhang...the possibility that the other party will take the bait is very high.

On the Jiangdong side, we have to wait for Gan Ning's development anyway.

As for the construction of Qinghui Road, it can be regarded as temporarily convincing a few people, and when the time comes... hurry up and fix it.

……

Early the next morning, Huang Yueying went to find Lu Su.

"When did Ah Chu come?" Lu Su was slightly taken aback.

"Yesterday." Huang Yueying sighed, "First I went to the State Shepherd's Mansion to visit my uncle..."

"Liu Jingzhou?"

"Well, he's sick again... so I had to discuss something with Liu Cong and the others." Huang Yueying explained.

Lu Su sighed, Liu Biao is old, and it is normal to be sick, "At present, it is a foregone conclusion that Liu Cong will inherit Jingzhou in the future?"

"Yeah." Huang Yueying nodded, but unfortunately...she didn't know if Liu Cong could keep what Liu Cong said today.

Although Liu Cong is handling Jingzhou affairs now, he is still not the state shepherd. When he becomes the state shepherd...maybe there will be changes.

"I received Achu's letter a few months ago, and Su has arranged all related matters." Lu Su reported his work.

"it is good."

"It's just about membership..." Lu Su frowned, "Based on Su's observation, there are very few people who can really join the club."

Huang Yueying laughed, "It's natural, if everyone can meet that standard, it will be easy to unify the world."

Lu Su sighed.

"Okay, Zijing, don't worry, take your time." Huang Yueying smiled, "It's not something that can be rushed."

Lu Su could only nod his head.

"Zijing helped me write greetings, and invited families from Jingzhou, as well as... Hanzhong, Berkshire, Yuzhang, Kuaiji, and Jiaozhou families to attend a product fair in Chu'an in mid-November this year."

"A fair?"

"Well, these days, a further version of the steam engine has been developed."

"really?"

"Yes." Huang Yueying nodded, "I have designed a production line with others, hoping to streamline production in the shortest possible time, and then it can be applied everywhere, such as...transportation, such as textiles, someone has to pay for it ah."

Lu Su: ...It's not that someone has to pay the bill, it's because you want to pay from the aristocratic family.

"In addition, once the steam engine is popularized, there will be a lot of changes in various places..." Huang Yueying thought for a while, and said, "At this time, the aristocratic families from other states will be needed to consume the products produced in Jingzhou."

"what?"

"For example, after the promotion of the steam engine, the efficiency of cloth weaving has improved. Originally, it could produce one cloth a day, but later it could produce three cloths a day. It's not like one family. The market in Jingzhou will soon be saturated." Huang Yueying explained, "At this time, do we have to find a way to transport the cloth to other places?"

Lu Su nodded, "Yes."

"Yes, Zijing needs to deal more with merchants in various states."

Lu Su nodded, and replied, "It's just that if that's the case... other states' families..."

"Yes, they will lose money for a few years at first." Huang Yueying smiled, "But will they have no way to sell?"

Lu Su shook his head, of course not.

"That's it, Zijing doesn't need to worry." Huang Yueying smiled, "And, once the steam engine technology spreads...the world may enter a new world."

Lu Su agreed, "Su, I understand."
