We agreed that you, a weak strategist, would fight against three heroes by yourself?
Chapter 108 I, Guan Yu, studied Spring and Autumn Period!
Xi Yu doesn't know how long the political situation in the Sili area can last.
The return of the Emperor of Han Dynasty to the east was an inevitable result.
After the locust plague, there was almost no harvest in the entire Guanzhong region.
Disaster victims are everywhere in Chang'an, and desolate bones are exposed in the wild. Under such a scene, Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty, is naturally no longer suitable for living.
What's more, Liu Xie still has a sense of belonging to Luoyang after all.
The officials of the Han Dynasty naturally thought a lot about their old capital, Luoyang.
After talking with Cao Cao that day.
The whole late autumn passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye the north wind began to rise.
In the blink of an eye, the new year has passed.
In a few months, the land of Yanzhou was like the tone set by Xiyu before.
Xi Zhicai was responsible for the construction of Chidao without any delay.
The entire Yanzhou Chidao is rising from the ground amid crazy construction.
With the newly built Chidao, the entire Yanzhou looks more attractive to the people than before.
"Success!"
"Success!"
In the actor's house, when Xi Yuzheng and Xi Zhicai were sitting opposite each other in front of the desk and warming themselves by the fire, Dian Wei hurried in from outside and excitedly walked in.
This guy's tone was extremely exciting, and Xi Yu understood more or less just by hearing his voice.
Xi Zhicai next to him was a little confused, and subconsciously glanced at Xi Yu.
"Ayu, what is Dianwei shouting?"
"It's time for papermaking to succeed!"
During this period, Xi Yu had been asking Dian Wei to help keep an eye on how to improve papermaking.
He informed Ma San and other craftsmen of the entire papermaking process.
Now Dian Wei has come back to report the news. As expected, papermaking has been successful!
With the foundation of papermaking, the success of the improved papermaking was not beyond Xi Yu's expectations.
However, this period also took several months of effort.
"Papermaking?"
Xi Zhicai naturally knew the art of papermaking. Someone had made this thing a long time ago.
However, the papermaking technique that my brother mentioned was definitely different from the previous one.
There was some doubt in my mind, but Dianwei had already entered the back hall.
"Sir, Ma San and the others have already made the paper according to your idea!"
For things like paper, Dian Wei didn't know how important his role was.
But paper is expensive in Luoyang, and paper is something only the upper class can use.
Now, he was watching Ma San and the others build it out of some cotton and linen waste, which naturally made Dian Wei a little happy.
"Brother, let's go take a look together?"
Xi Yu glanced at Xi Zhicai, and then invited him to come with him to look at the paper made by Ma San and others.
Hearing what Xi Yu said, Xi Zhi nodded decisively.
Paper!
This is good stuff.
The three of them left the mansion and soon arrived at the papermaking workshop in Juancheng.
After arriving, Xi Yu discovered that not only did he know the news, but Cao Cao, Xun Yu and others also followed him.
This is papermaking!
Cao Cao was naturally very concerned about it. Ever since he knew that Xi Yu had asked Ma San and others to tinker with papermaking, Cao Cao couldn't help but feel a little more hopeful.
Xun Yu and others beside them were naturally very concerned about paper.
If it is true as Xi Yu said, paper can be mass-produced.
Then he won't have to face those bamboo slips all day long.
Even with a large amount of paper, Yanzhou can even do business with other states in the Han Dynasty.
Those wealthy families also love paper very much.
If this item can be exchanged for gold, silver, or even food, it will be of great benefit to the entire Yanzhou.
A crowd gathered outside the workshop door in Juancheng.
At this time, the people headed by Ma San quickly followed.
"I've seen my lord, I've seen Mr. Fengyi, I've seen Mr. Wenruo, I've seen..."
The people in front of him were important figures to craftsmen like Ma San. After saluting everyone, Cao Cao quickly followed suit.
"Ma San, I heard you made paper!"
Cao Cao was a little excited, and even couldn't wait to see the paper.
Xi Yu also patted Ma San on the shoulder.
"well done!"
"It's all the credit of Mr. Fengyi, we don't dare to take credit!"
Ma San responded quickly.
What kind of papermaking skills do these ordinary craftsmen know?
If Mr. Xi Yuxi hadn't told them the process of making paper, they would never have imagined how paper could be made.
Ma San still has a very clear understanding of himself and others.
Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on the paper, he did not dare to delay at all.
It was windy outside, and Ma San led Cao Cao and others into the workshop.
Soon a craftsman came over holding a stack of white paper.
"Paper, really paper!"
Just one glance, and the corners of Cao Cao's mouth couldn't help but curl up.
He had seen paper before, and the thing in front of him was as thin as cicada wings, like silk.
It just looks like paper.
However, the paper in front of him was whiter than the ones he kept at home, so much so that people couldn't take their eyes away from it just by looking at it.
Cao Cao was a little happy.
Xun Yu next to him was already holding the paper in his hand, and he couldn't put it down. The counselors behind him all had the same look on their faces.
Xi Yu reached out and touched the paper in front of him.
It feels good. Although it is still far from the blank paper of later generations, it is considered good that Ma San and others can follow the procedures to this step.
You know, although he knows what the paper is made of.
However, the specific process is not very clear.
Ma San and others can create a blank sheet of paper, and their contribution cannot be ignored.
"Brother, these craftsmen should be rewarded!"
Xi Yu said something to Cao Cao, who didn't hesitate at all when he heard this.
Cao Cao looked at Ma San and others: "You all have made great contributions. I will keep it in mind and reward you later!"
After Cao Cao finished speaking, the expressions of the craftsmen became obviously more excited.
You know, in this era, the status of craftsmen is actually not much different from that of ordinary people.
What various states and counties ask these craftsmen to do is actually equivalent to working for nothing, and the pay is hardly very high.
However, these craftsmen are also talents that cannot be ignored.
The local government also has a protective effect on these people.
In troubled times, most of these craftsmen rarely face danger to their lives.
There are pros and cons!
"I wonder how much this thing costs?"
Xun Yu looked at the paper in his hand, and after a long time he asked the most critical question.
How much does this cost?
If it is not much different from the previous papermaking technology, then the meaning of paper will not be of maximum benefit.
But if, as Xi Yu said, the cost is not high and it can even be mass-produced.
Then, the existence of these papers is the most beneficial thing for the world!
After Xun Yu finished speaking, Cao Cao and everyone else looked at Ma San.
The latter also reacted.
"Back to my lord, the cost materials of these papers are all as Mr. Xi said before!"
Ma San didn't say anything too specific, but Cao Cao and others already understood it as soon as he said it.
Just like Xiyu said before.
That is, it can be mass-produced on a large scale and the cost is not high.
Cao Cao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth a little more, and his whole mood was indescribably wonderful.
"Okay, okay!"
After saying hello several times in a row, Cao Cao subconsciously reached out and touched his beard.
"Before the New Year, I have another happy event in Yanzhou. I am really happy and congratulated!"
Cao Cao was in a good mood, and Xun Yu and others were in a similar mood. With the existence of paper, many of the next plans could be carried out.
"Ma San, you should speed up the production of this product!"
After admonishing Ma San, Cao Cao turned back and looked at everyone present.
"No one is allowed to tell anyone about the manufacturing of paper materials!"
This thing has a great effect on Yanzhou, so Cao Cao naturally takes it very seriously.
After witnessing the paper, Xi Yu didn't stay too long.
After he took some paper from Ma San, he told the other party not to cancel the exploration of the paper.
There are many types of paper.
After watching Xi Yu Zigu take a bundle of paper from Ma San, everyone present was a little moved.
Cao Cao asked for a bundle, followed closely by Xun Yu without any courtesy.
No one present was polite at all.
It was a bit like those who saw it had their share, and Cao Cao did not stop him.
Some of the paper that had just been made was divided in the blink of an eye.
Those who didn't get it couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
…
The northwest wind in winter is biting.
Seeing that the whole Yanzhou has become colder, as the New Year is approaching, the political affairs in the entire Yanzhou have also become a little less.
As winter came, Xi Yu did not continue training in the supply camp as before.
Now he has left the entire supply camp to Zhao Yun for training.
Zhao Yun is also conscientious and can be regarded as a standard model worker.
And at the same time.
Liu Bei and his party, who followed Cao Cao to Juancheng, are now staying very peacefully in Juancheng.
Within the temporary residence where Liu Bei lives.
Even though it was winter, Liu Bei still did not stop busy at this time.
He didn't know when he cultivated some fertile farmland in the yard, and he has been dealing with things in the farmland during this time.
Although he couldn't grow anything like food in winter, Liu Bei got some strange seeds from nowhere.
Within the entire field, there were quite a few seedlings.
"Brother, are you busy with your three-thirds of the field again?"
Zhang Fei, who had just returned from drinking outside, glanced at Liu Bei unconsciously.
Seeing Liu Bei squatting carefully in the fields, he didn't know what to say.
Liu Bei raised his head and glanced at Zhang Fei.
"Going out to drink again?"
The flagon Zhang Fei was carrying was too obvious. There was nothing wrong with his third brother.
He just likes to drink. He has advised her on this, but it is only a matter of time limit.
Now, all three of their brothers are living under someone else's roof.
Liu Bei turned a blind eye to Zhang Fei's habit of drinking every day.
However, counting the days, it will be almost half a year in the blink of an eye!
From Xuzhou to Yanzhou.
Liu Bei also saw the difference between these two states.
Today's Yanzhou is in a prosperous state, and this scene is all because of the presence of a person beside Cao Cao.
Whether it is the previous policy of military garrison or the cultivation of people.
Or, it would be easy to deal with the locust plague later.
Wait, it's all inseparable from Xi Yu's figure.
Liu Bei was a little emotional. At this moment, he suddenly heard the gatekeeper coming in to announce.
"Sir, Mr. Xi is here to visit!"
"Mr. Xi?"
Liu Bei was a little dazed when he heard the guard's report, and Zhang Fei, who was standing beside him, also frowned.
Mr. Drama?
The Xiyu brothers are the only two people in Juancheng who can be called like this.
Liu Bei knew very well that he was not very familiar with these two people.
Now that the other party came to look for him, Liu Bei was extremely surprised.
After the guard finished speaking, before Liu Bei could speak, several figures walked in from outside the door.
There was one person in the lead with a smile on his face.
"Jun Xuande, I have taken the liberty to come to visit you, and I would like to thank Haihan!"
Xi Yu had a smile on his face, followed by Dian Weilong, who was walking like a tiger with a tiger's stride.
Zhang Fei unconsciously stood behind Liu Bei.
Seeing that it was Xi Yu, Liu Bei put a smile on his face and quickly stood up to greet him.
"It's the gentleman who came here, but I was a bit negligent!"
As soon as Xi Yu came in, his eyes fell on the fields cultivated by Liu Bei. Just one glance made him certain.
At this time, Liu Bei stepped forward to greet him with a smile on his face, and Xi Yu also smiled and nodded.
"Jun Xuande, you are having a great time in Juancheng!"
"It's true, Juancheng deserves to be the place where Meng De governed!"
"I have seen all kinds of things in Juancheng along the way. Compared with other states in the Han Dynasty, the whole Juancheng can really allow me to see a bit of the grandeur of the Han Dynasty in the past!"
Liu Bei was a little emotional.
Xi Yu didn't say much when he heard this, he just asked casually.
At this time, he followed Liu Bei and Zhang Fei all the way into the back hall of the residence.
As if he heard the noise, Guan Yu from the room also followed and walked out.
Xi Yu raised his eyes and glanced at Guan Yu. When he saw that the other person was still holding a scroll in his hand, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth, and thought of that classic line again in his mind.
Seeing that it was Xi Yu, Guan Yu gave him a very polite salute.
Xiyu returned the gift.
Guan Yu still had some arrogance, but Xi Yu felt that in front of him, Guan Yu was obviously much more restrained at this time.
"Sir, I'm here to visit. Do you have something important to do?"
After everyone sat down, Liu Bei asked Xi Yu with great concern.
This question was asked with some caution.
Xi Yu shook his head: "It's nothing important. I just heard about Mr. Xuande's character. I never had the chance to visit him before. Now that I'm free, I want to meet Mr. Xuande!"
"I have also heard about Sir's deeds!"
Liu Bei laughed.
Xi Yu glanced at Dian Wei behind him. The latter did not hesitate and took out a large roll of white paper from his sleeve robe, then handed it to Xi Yu.
"Jun Xuande, this is a blank piece of paper. There are no gifts for this visit, so I will give it to Jun Xuande!"
Xi Yu casually handed the white paper in his hand to Liu Bei.
The latter was a little dazed.
Liu Bei didn't know about the papermaking technology. When he saw Xi Yu casually handing him a large roll of white paper, Liu Bei was shocked.
Zhang Fei next to him seemed to have forgotten the wine bottle in his hand, and his eyes fell on the white paper in an instant.
I can't move it!
"This, this thing is so valuable, I can't afford it!"
Liu Bei still knew how expensive paper was.
When I was studying with Lu Zhi, the great scholar Lu Zhi didn't even have much paper in his hands.
And now, Xi Yu has another volume, which is really extremely precious.
"I'll give it to you, no matter how much I can't afford it!"
"My husband had this thing made by himself, and now there are quite a few of it throughout Juancheng!"
Seeing Liu Bei's posture, Dian Wei couldn't help laughing.
Nowadays, almost everyone in Juancheng has a lot of paper.
There are even some in Dianwei's house.
It should be said that Dianwei was still a little rare about paper before, but now he can't wait to give away all the white paper.
I don’t know why, but my husband is now asking him to read and write.
These days, his head is getting bigger!
Thinking of what he had experienced these past few days, Dian Wei's head ached.
When Liu Bei heard this, he subconsciously glanced at Xi Yu.
There is a lot of paper in Juancheng?
Also, Xiyu can actually make paper?
Liu Bei was a little confused, but Xi Yu didn't hide it. Although it was only a few days, there was indeed an increase in paper in Juancheng.
The efficiency of Ma San and others is not low. In just a few days, Juancheng's paper has begun mass production.
Liu Bei didn't know, it was just because the other party had been hiding in the house.
"Dian Wei is right. This thing was made by me. It is not a scarce thing now. Mr. Xuande can accept it!"
He said something to Liu Bei, who was obviously in a daze at this time.
"Sir, you are really a great talent!"
When Liu Bei said this, his tone was trembling.
Guan Yu on the side looked at the paper and was a little stunned.
At this moment, Liu Bei looked at Xi Yu again, and the solicitation in his heart was like a raging fire.
After it started to rise, it became a little bit uncontrollable.
"Sir, you are so talented, why..."
Liu Bei opened his mouth, but the words in his mouth were stuck in his throat.
There is still no way to say this right now.
Xi Yu knew what the other party wanted to say, so he didn't care about it. He couldn't help but glance at the fertile fields in the yard.
"Do you know what those things Mr. Xuande planted are?"
"Bei doesn't know that these seeds were accidentally obtained in his hometown in Youzhou, but they have never been cultivated."
“Now that I have some free time, I’m doing some farming!”
"Can you give me some?"
Xi Yu couldn't help but blurt out.
The seedlings in the yard were not other seeds, but some pepper seedlings.
Now, there are a lot of peppers growing on the seedlings!
He also became curious when he heard that Liu Bei had planted something in the yard.
After all, this is winter, and normal grain crops will not bear fruit at this time.
Things that can bear fruit at this time naturally make Xi Yu very concerned about it.
"Since sir likes it, be prepared for everything!"
