Everyone in the tent looked at the brown-clothed young man, and Lu Bu also looked over.

This person's facial features are mediocre, and Lu Bu only has a slight impression of him.

His name was Cui Xu, and he was once a slave captured by the Xianbei people, and after Lü Bu broke through the clouds, thousands of Han people were freed.

It was also at that time that Cui Xu was favored by Xi Ce and was recruited into the army.

Lu Bu had very little time to deal with him, and what the two had said before and after, together, was not as good as meeting and greeting Xi Ce.

In Lu Bu's eyes, Cui Xu's martial arts can basically be called fur and ignored; secondly, he is not as well-informed and strategic as Drama; marching and fighting, training soldiers, Song Xian and others are several times stronger than him.

With such a person who has almost no strengths, it is no wonder that Lu Bu does not want to see him.

Cui Xu's presence here in Lu Bu is not even as good as an ordinary wolf cavalry battalion soldier.

Faced with the questions of the new county guard and the sneering eyes of everyone in the tent, Cui Xu did not speak, but looked at Lu Bu with an inquiring gaze.

After all, he is now under Lu Bu's fence, and everything can only be counted if Lu Bu says it, which is the least respect.

After getting Lu Bu's nod and approval, Cui Xu glanced at the Yan family diners opposite, and gently put the hot water bowl covering his hands on the table, his tone was full of mockery: "I look at what you say, it's all!" ”

As soon as these words came out, it can be said that there was enough hatred.

"What did you say!"

"Arrogant child, dare to make a big fuss here!"

"If you can't say that you are ugly, you will be asked to kowtow and make amends."

"Grandstanding? It's just a clown. ”

The Yan diners sitting opposite had different attitudes, two or three people who were a little short-tempered, gritted their teeth and were full of resentment, slapped the table on the spot, glared at them, and scolded them angrily. The one who is quite patient is sneering and silent, sitting and watching the show.

Most of the reckless men on Lu Bu's side didn't understand this, and silently became a melon-eating crowd.

Yan Xin is interested, this person dares to speak out in front of so many people, and he is expected to have some ability.

He looked at Cui Xu and said with a light smile: "I would like to hear Brother Tai's high view." ”

"Gao Jian doesn't dare to be, but in his humble opinion, he can say a little bit about it."

"If you want to reorganize the five plains, the first thing to ensure is the livelihood of the people. Mencius once said, 'The people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light', and the people came to Wuyuan thousands of miles away, not to build a house and build a wall, but to stay away from hunger and cold, and live a better life. ”

"Only by getting the support and recognition of the people first, can everything after that be twice the result with half the effort and be guaranteed."

Yan Xin's eyes flashed with brilliance, and what Cui Xu said almost coincided with him.

"Let's talk about something practical, let's just say that our trip is to go to Jiuyuan, Zhixian County. So dare to ask the county guard, according to the current situation, is it easy to raise these 30,000 people and 8,000 soldiers with the land of Jiuyuan and one county? ”

Yan Xin shook his head slightly, he was also having a headache about this matter, but if he didn't move to Jiuyuan, and divided the people into nine counties, the population of each county would be more than 3,000 people, and the population was not only scarce, but also particularly difficult to dispatch.

"Since one county is difficult to raise, why not focus on Jiuyuan and divide it into three or four counties."

yes, how I didn't think of that!

Yan Xin was empowered in an instant, and Cui Xu's words undoubtedly opened the door to a new world for him.

He could already be sure that the person in front of him was not talking nonsense, but he was indeed capable.

"Brother Tai, which counties should be governed?" Yan Xin's attitude is solemn and he asks for advice with an open mind.

Cui Xu didn't think much about it, and came when he opened his mouth: "Zhenyang, Linwo, Jiuyuan, Xi'anyang." ”

Scold~

The man who proposed to repair the city wall in the diner sneered, and finally seized the opportunity to attack: "Zhiyang and Linwo are all broken like this, even if you talk nonsense, you must always find some better places." ”

Indeed, except for Jiuyuan, which is slightly better, the others are the most severely affected by the war, and there is hardly a complete house to be found in the county.

The Yan family diners beside him all nodded their heads, but they couldn't let this kid get carried away and kick his nose in the face.

"Boss, I don't think it should be in these places." Cao Xuan muttered quietly.

"I don't know any of that, can you know?" Lu Bu's eyebrows narrowed slightly, and he scolded Cao Xing angrily.

Yan Xin, who is well versed in it, naturally doesn't believe that Cui Xu is nonsense he connected these place names in his mind, and almost instantly came to the conclusion that the water source.

All of these places are close to the Turbid River, and the water is convenient.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency, how much do you know about Wuyuan?" Cui Xu looked at the diner, his face becoming cold.

"Not much, but not too little."

The man was also unyielding and-for-tat, "Please tell me how to implement it." ”

In the face of this person's repeated provocations, Cui Xu showed disdain, just rely on you, and you also want to see my jokes?

"First, you should build a house first, because these winter tents alone can't survive the bone-chilling winter of Wuyuan."

"Second, divide the land among the people, give them seedlings, turn over the fields, and prepare the land for spring ploughing in the coming year."

"Third, build canals to divert water to irrigate farmland."

"Fourth, graphite is mined for heating in winter."

"The Five ......"

One by one, the suggestions came out of Cui Xu's mouth, and they were handy.

Yan Xin's eyes became more and more radiant, and when he heard the end, he couldn't help but cheer: "Good! ”

The sneering diners on the right suddenly felt that their faces were crackled, and they were as red as pork liver, but they had nothing to refute.

Cui Xu's proposal was greatly approved by Yan Xin, and at the same time, he also sent a formal invitation to Cui Xu: "There is still a shortage of Changshi in the county, and Brother Cui is invited to take this position." ”

"Fourth son, the head of the family clearly said that this long history position ......" The diner who was sitting in the first place was anxious.

Yan Xin looked at it coldly, and the man seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, so he immediately shut up and was silent.

Cui Xu was silent, Yan Xin looked at Lu Bu, put away Fang Cai's coldness, and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, you have to speak about this matter." ”

As a result of this, Lu Bu's impression of Cui Xu has also completely changed.

He agreed without hesitation to Yan Xin, if Cui Xu was allowed to continue to stay in his military camp, it would only be overkill, cooking chicken.

On the day of the meeting, Xi Ce and Chen Fu walked and chatted in the wilderness.

"Cui Xu will become the county magistrate, I didn't expect this."

After walking a short distance, Chen Fu brought up the topic, and in his impression, Cui Xu didn't seem to have much value at all.

Now that he has become the county magistrate, it is really a carp that has jumped over the dragon gate.

Speaking of this, Xi Ce also sighed to himself: "No one is more suitable for agriculture and water conservancy than him." ”

His uncle, Cui Yu, was the county guard of Wuyuan, and wrote "The Order of the Four Peoples and the Moon" before his death.

This book not only details the agricultural activities of the Grange from the first month of the month to December, but also describes the seasons and cultivation methods of cereals, melons and vegetables, as well as textiles, weaving and dyeing, brewing, and pharmaceuticals.

Under the influence of his ears and eyes, Cui Xu naturally has to have some ability.

The most important thing is that this book is in Cui Xu's hands.

At present, the state is very poor, except for large areas of barren land, there is basically nothing to lack of cattle and farm tools.

In the battle of Niu Sheye, more than 60,000 war horses and countless weapons were captured.

Hand it over to the imperial court?

A fool would do that.

In the middle of his leisure, Xi Ce seemed to think of something, and sighed leisurely: "Alas, it's a pity that we don't have anyone here who knows how to do business. If these horses can be sold to the two states of Jiyou, or other states in the south, and exchanged for some grain and farming tools, this winter will be better. ”

Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the status of merchants has been extremely low, not to mention the big families, and even ordinary people mostly look down on businessmen and the like.

The scholars and literati disdained to be in the company of it.

Chen Fu, whose family background has been declining for several years, suddenly spoke: "I know two horse dealers in Zhongshan. ”
