Prime Minister take care

Chapter 5

Yizhou has fertile land and abundant products, and its thousands of miles of plains are full of fertile farmland.

When the Zhou Empire was at its peak, Yizhou was once the empire's logistics base against the northern barbarians.A kind of Qianren silk produced in Xiancheng, the capital of Shu, is an excellent material for making bows and crossbows.

Crossbows are banned by the government, and civilians are not allowed to hide them for themselves.This point means that even if the world is in chaos, the attitude of the princes everywhere will be the same.

Although it has the reputation of being the city with all the best cavalry in the world and the best crossbows in the world, nowadays, the world is in chaos, and the craftsmanship of making crossbows in various places is either lost or hidden by the princes, and the craftsmen who can make strong crossbows It is a talent that is in short supply.

During the years when Xia Yunhua became the King of Shu, although she could not be said to have exacted excessive taxes and was extravagant and lustful, she definitely could not be called a wise and wise king.

Yizhou's armaments were lax and people's livelihood was difficult.If it weren't for the natural dangers between the east and west rivers, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack, Liang Jun would have already invaded.

Although Xia Yunhua gave Yang Xian the right to open a mansion, he did not give him money or money, but he only gave him a name.

If Yang Xian wants to stand on his own in Yizhou and even resist the invasion of Daliang, it is essential to have a strong army.Among them, having a strong crossbow team is a top priority.

Over the past few days, Yang Xian has accumulated a total of two skill points.He did not use those extremely powerful martial arts skills, and with the protection of a grandmaster-level master like Yang Chun, his safety was not in danger for the time being.

In addition to the offensive skills of each faction, the most special thing in this starry sky reflection is the life skills in the game.

These life skills do not consume many skill points compared to those complicated martial arts skills, but they are extremely practical.

The first life skill that Yang Xian highlighted was manufacturing.After possessing manufacturing skills, he easily obtained the manufacturing diagram of the crossbow.

However, troubles followed one after another. With the manufacturing map, it was not possible to manufacture a powerful crossbow.Yang Xian still has one biggest problem that remains unresolved.

That is no money!
Whether it is the acquisition of materials, the hiring of craftsmen, the construction of the arsenal for the prime minister's palace to collect the crossbows, or the maintenance of the crossbows, it is a considerable expense.

The King of Shu, Xia Yunhua, has nothing to lose, and the people in charge of Yizhou's finances are either members of the King of Shu, Xia Yunhua, or members of the four major families of Li, Zhang, Yan, and Huang. It is even more impossible to get money from those aristocratic families.

So in order to solve this trouble, Yang Xian lit up the second life skill, food.

These life skills are secondary in the game. Players almost always repeat the operations mechanically every day, and the food skills are even more useless.

But for Yang Xian, these are of many uses.

"Father, the food you cook is delicious!"

Xia Gongnie is a foodie, and an extraordinary foodie.

"Here, eat a carrot yam!"

Yang Xian picked up a yam and handed it to Xia Gongnie.The other party was like a docile kitten, swallowing the yam cut into small pieces in one bite.

The sweet yam has already been steamed, and it has been crushed without biting.Xia Gongnie was eating the dishes Yang Xian made with his own hands, smiling all over his face.

For Yang Xian, feeding Xia Gong Nie in person can increase the intimacy of Xia Gong Nie.For a foodie like Xia Gongnie, food is almost everything.

"Your Highness, is the dish I prepared today still in line with Your Highness's taste?"

"Xiangfu, the food you cook is so delicious! None of the chefs in the palace can compare to Xiangfu! From now on, Nier will come to Xiangfu's house every day, okay?"

Yang Xian looked at the food on the table. The food for four or five grown men had now entered Xia Gongnie's belly.Judging from the other party's appearance, it seems that he is not full yet.

"Okay, okay, okay! Your Highness wants to come to my residence. It is my honor."

Yang Xian gritted his teeth and said.According to the way of eating Xia Gong Nie, three meals a day, plus midnight snacks.Even if he was not impoverished, he would still be exhausted.

"What did I say to His Highness?"

"Don't worry, Xiangfu. It's just a matter of touching porcelain. Leave it to Nier! Those people dare to bully Xiangfu. I think they don't want to live anymore."

Xia Gongnie was satisfied with her meal, touched her belly and said domineeringly.

It was a mild afternoon.

Li Yu, son of the Li family, was wandering around the bustling streets of Xian City.As the legitimate son of an aristocratic family, he has fully inherited the excellent tradition of those second generation ancestors bullying men and women.

The news that Shu King Xia Yunhua was dying of terminal illness was no secret in this huge Xian City.For the young masters of these wealthy families, this is actually good news.

To them, Xia's orthodox status was no big deal.Being tied to Xia's ship, which is about to leak, being unable to escape is the biggest trouble.

Once Xia Yunhua passed away, only Xia Gongnie and Yang Xian were their obstacles in Yizhou.If they could get rid of these obstacles and defect to Daliang, they would not only be able to keep their current wealth, but also be promoted to higher ranks.In Li Yu's view, no matter how arrogant Yang Xian is, he is just a young boy, and Xia Gongnie is even more of a yellow-haired girl. How can he turn the world upside down?

Li Yu was in a good mood today. Even if he met a merchant who offended him unintentionally, he did not punch or kick him as usual, but let him go with a smile.

Li Yu's good mood lasted for quite a while, until he met a little girl.

"Hey!"

A little girl wearing cloth and pigtails walked upright towards him, and then fell to the ground as expected.His movements are so skillful that he looks professional at first glance.

"Why did you hit me?"

Li Yu looked at this dirty girl with a gray face, and he had no intention of attacking.Who knew that the little girl would not let go.

"Give me money!"

This was the first time that Li Yu saw such a bully. In the past, he was the only one who bullied others, and no one else dared to mess with him.

"Where did the little girl come from, dare to block my way! Get out!"

"You dare to scold me?"

Ordinary people would have left long ago when they met Li Yu.But this little girl still had her waist in her waist, looking menacing.

"You little bastard who has a father and no mother, I will not only scold you, but also beat you!"

Li Yu stretched out his hand and was about to slap someone with a big mouth.However, Li Yu's hand reached halfway, and he suddenly felt a strong attack on his back.

A touch.

When Li Yu got up from the ground covered in dust, he found that the surroundings were already surrounded by soldiers, and the men he brought were also subdued by these people.

"Who are you? Do you dare to hit me and risk your life?"

"Master Li is such a powerful official!"

Yang Xian walked out of the crowd unhurriedly and said slowly.

"Yang Xian!" Li Yu seemed to realize something, and shouted loudly, "What do you want to do?"

"Of course I caught you!"

After Yang Xian finished speaking, more than a dozen Yang family soldiers rushed forward and tied Li Yu tightly.

"Yang Xian, why are you arresting me? Just because I didn't allocate funds to your Prime Minister's Office? You are avenging a private revenge! My father will not let you go!"

clap clap!

Two slap marks clearly hit Li Yu's face, and his face quickly swelled.The pain made him calm down after he was screaming.

"Don't talk nonsense. How could the prime minister arrest people privately because of political differences in the court? Brother Li! You are in big trouble."

Yang Xian stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder solemnly.

"What a joke, what did I do?"

Li Yu glanced at the soldiers from the Yang family who beat him just now, and asked unwillingly.

"What you committed was the heinous crime of insulting the royal family and attempting to murder the Shu Princess! Let alone Uncle Li Shi, I'm afraid I can't protect you even if you are the real person!"

Li Yu seemed to have remembered something, and looked carefully at the little girl in civilian clothes, with a face as if she had entered an ice cellar.

"take away!"

Xia Gongnie trotted to Yang Xian's side with an expression begging for praise.

"Xiangfu, how is Nie'er doing?"

"Very good, I'll give you a lion head tonight!"
