The Necromancer of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 107
Yuan Xu woke up early.

Zhen Yan and Wei Ji are already waiting in the front yard.

Seeing the two of them, Yuan Xu greeted: "Follow me to the study in the outer courtyard and find some books."

Wei Ji was at a loss: "Isn't the young master going to the farm?"

Yuan Xu didn't answer, Zhen Yan winked at him.

Not understanding what the two of them meant at all, Wei Ji had no choice but not to ask.

It took only a day to tidy up the study in the outer courtyard.

The bookshelves are full of books that Yuan Xu took from after 2000.

"Choose some books that are useful in the farm." Yuan Xu instructed Zhen Yan.

Zhen Yan came to the bookshelf marked "Planting, Cultivation, Breeding and Breeding" to look for the books needed by the farm.

Wei Ke also came to a row of bookshelves.

He found the books on the shelf well bound and beautifully covered.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was already papermaking technology, and there were also a small number of manuscripts.

Compared with the books on the shelf, the manuscripts are too crude to bear to look at.

Taking out a book, Wei Ke found that he didn't know any of the words on it.

Holding the book and coming to Zhen Yan's side, he asked, "What kind of book is this? Why don't I know a single word?"

"This book is for doctors." Zhen Yan glanced at the cover of the book: "Smooth delivery starts with improving life."

Wei Ke looked embarrassed.

He didn't know the words in the book at all, so he picked one at random, and it was actually used by women to give birth...

"You...didn't lie to me?" He looked at Zhen Yan in disbelief.

"What are you doing?" Zhen Yan said with a serious face, "It is indeed for medical practitioners."

"I don't even know half a word, how do you know?" Wei Ji still didn't quite believe it.

"These are all heavenly scriptures obtained by the young master." Zhen Yan replied: "We didn't know each other before, but the young master specially taught them so that we can understand."

Wei Ke slightly opened his mouth in astonishment.

heavenly book...

Yuan Xu actually got the heavenly book...

He subconsciously looked at Yuan Xu.

Yuan Xu stood in front of the bookshelf, flipping through a book about literature and art.

Coming behind Yuan Xu, Wei Jiao bowed with a big gift: "Young master must be able to get the heavenly book, it must be in accordance with the way of heaven. I believe that the stone tablet is indeed God's will!"

"You didn't believe it before?" Yuan Xu put down "Lady Chatterley and Her Lover" he was reading, and turned to face Wei Ke.

"Believe it, but it's not as sure as it is now." Wei Ji replied, "Please forgive me, my lord."

"There are many kinds of heavenly books." Yuan Xu introduced the new study room: "The books displayed here are all heavenly books that I got. They cover almost all categories. Of course, there are also some idle books that are just for entertainment."

He took out a thick copy and handed it to Wei Ke: "For example, this "Rogue Soldier King of the Three Kingdoms" is an idle book written by an author who claims to be a pure and filthy demon king. It's okay to watch the excitement, and learn from it without even thinking about it. think."

After taking the book, Wei Ke turned over two pages, but still didn't understand a single word.

"The protagonist is Cao Cao's second son." Yuan Xu introduced: "He is omnipotent in the book. In my opinion, it's pure fluffy nonsense."

"Cao Cao's second son?" Wei Ji said in bewilderment, "I heard that Shuo, the second son of the Cao family, died young..."

"It's him who wrote it." Yuan Xu curled his lips: "In the book, he coaxed him to say that he is invincible in the world, so he didn't meet me. If I met him on the battlefield, even if I met him, he wouldn't be able to defend half of the city."

Yuan Xu talked lively, but Wei Ji didn't even know the words in the book.

"Is this book written about the present?" Wei Jiao asked.

Yuan Xu nodded, and patted him on the shoulder lightly: "Don't think about it, you are not in the book. I really want to read it, and I will borrow it after learning the characters of the heavenly script."

Zhen Yan has picked out a few books.

He said to Yuan Xu: "My lord, these are the only things the farm can use at the moment."

"Bring them all." Yuan Xu greeted: "Let's go to the farm."

Finally going to the farm, Wei Ke was a little excited.

He also wanted to see what was planted in the farm.

The three left Yecheng with a team of guards, and not long after, they arrived at the main gate of the farm.

When Yuan Xu came last time, the courtyard wall hadn't been pulled up yet, but now even the door has been installed.

"It's done well." He looked at the gate of the farm: "This way, you will definitely not be able to see what is planted in the farm from outside."

"There is a problem." Zhen Yan said: "There are some people in the nearby villages who are greedy for cheap. Since the farm was built, they often steal over the wall."

"Have you caught it?" Yuan Xu turned cold.

"Caught it." Zhen Yan replied.

"What about people?" Yuan Xu asked, "How did you deal with it?"

"I was asked to go back." Zhen Yan said: "Many people came from the village and caused trouble outside the farm. I was thinking..."

"You are thinking, if no one comes to steal, the farm is too idle." Yuan Xu interrupted him: "After the farm is built, people will often steal over the wall, not to mention that the purpose of building it is difficult to achieve, how can you guarantee a good harvest?"

Zhen Yan was speechless.

"Come here." Yuan Xu ordered the guards: "Go back to the city, and ask General Gan to lead the team to come."

After Gan Ning returned to Yecheng with Guo Jia, he was only at home and at the barracks every day.

After receiving Yuan Xu's order, he selected hundreds of soldiers and hurried out of the city.

When he arrived, Yuan Xu and others had already entered the farm.

"Master looking for me?" Gan Ning greeted Yuan Xu when he reached Yuan Xu's side.

"There is something you need to do." Yuan Xu said: "The farm is built, and idlers often come here to steal."

"Who is so bold to steal from a government-run farm?" Gan Ning frowned.

"Arrange soldiers to investigate the craftsmen and peasants." Yuan Xu ordered: "Find out who they are, and go to the village to arrest them immediately. If anyone dares to obstruct, arrest them along with the obstructers."

"What will happen after arresting someone?" Gan Ning asked.

"What Hebei needs is law." Yuan Xu said: "Shen Zhengnan is in charge of the law, and you don't need to deal with the people you catch, all of them are handed over to him."

"Young master may not know." Zhen Yan interjected: "Some villages are overbearing and unreasonable. I'm afraid it's not that easy to enter the village and arrest people."

"Didn't I say that?" Yuan Xu replied, "Anyone who dares to obstruct will be arrested and sent to Shenzhengnan."

Gan Ning got the order and took the soldiers to ask the farm craftsmen and peasants about the situation.

Wei Ji said to Yuan Xu: "The folks have always had the bad habit of stealing. Will it be too heavy for the young master to rectify it like this?"

"Heavy?" Yuan Xu asked: "Could it be that there is no need to rectify bad habits because they have always existed?"

"No." Wei Ji replied: "After all, it's just stealing, I think a small punishment is fine."

Yuan Xu sneered coldly: "Small punishment is light, it doesn't hurt or itch, and I will do it again in the future. It is because they think that it will not be a big deal to come to the farm to steal property, so they dare to do whatever they want. The village comes to please people , and let it go back, it will further encourage unhealthy trends.”

His attitude was tough, Wei Ji didn't dare to persuade him any more.

"Now it's just a test. If you don't punish severely, you will dare to rob in the future." Yuan Xu asked, "Do you believe it or not?"
