However, although Cao Cao’s starting point is very high, there are advantages and disadvantages as the saying goes. If he wants to support the Han Dynasty, he will end up like Kong Ming. Neither Liu Bian nor Liu Xie is a good emperor. If he does not support the Han Dynasty, then he The officials under him may be renounced, and how much will be left in the end depends on Cao Mengde's methods.

Furthermore, if Cao Cao is powerful, the heroes will unite, and maybe an eighteen princes will fight Cao Mengde in a tiger prison. Often use means.

After talking about the heroes of the Central Plains, Lin Bei focused his eyes on the two cities of Linjiang and Wanghai first.

After the aborigines were taken back, An Zhongzhi did not give the aborigines time to rest. Except for the wounded and children under the age of six who could not work, all the aborigines were escorted by the sergeant to dig rocks, log and build roads every day. It is heavy work, and the risk is relatively high. The aborigines are allowed to get up at the middle of the day every day, and they can only stop at the end of the night. The working time has reached thirteen hours. Because they are afraid that the aborigines will die from exhaustion, An Zhongzhi’s food for these aborigines is not bad. Three meals a day, and some meat in the evening, I thought this kind of treatment would arouse the resistance of the natives, An Zhongzhi had already planned, if encountering resistance, he would kill chickens and monkeys, and kill some natives, who knew these things The aborigines didn't think it was hard work. Instead, they thought the treatment was great and they worked extremely hard.

An Zhong couldn't figure it out. Later, he interrogated some aborigines and found out that these aborigines used to be so poor that they were hungry and full every day. The dried fish found in the tribe was saved because of the increased rain in recent days to catch fish. Now that they can eat enough food every day, these aboriginals feel that life is good, and some aboriginals actually grow stronger because of it, and even more What is speechless is that the aborigines are very happy if they are injured, because it means that they can eat and live for free, which is equivalent to a holiday.

After An Zhongzhi reported this situation to Lin Bei, Lin Bei was stunned for a long time, speechless for a long time, thinking that this is okay?

"My lord, are we being too kind to these natives?" An Zhongzhi was very conflicted.

"What are you feeding them?" Lin Bei asked.

"Bean dregs and a little rice. Otherwise, no one would eat the bean dregs. If there is some meat at night, I'm afraid they will die of exhaustion." An Zhong said straight.

"Happy like this?" Lin Bei really felt incredible.

An Zhong nodded with a bitter face. Without resistance, there is no sense of accomplishment.

Lin Bei was never a cruel person, and he ordered the workers to cook some bone soup or fish soup for the aborigines every meal, but extended the working hours of the aborigines by another hour, from [-] am to night It was dark at eight o'clock.

For Lin Bei, Wanghai City paid very little. There are two kinds of bones and fish in Wanghai City, and the storage is very abundant. I feel good, and there is almost no resistance, so the work efficiency is high, which can be said to be a win-win situation.

Under the hard work of the indigenous people, the stone pavement has become longer and longer, and now nearly a hundred miles of stone road have been paved. One zhang ([-] meters) can be paved to point a, and after one and a half months, it can be paved to point b in the forest.

At this time, Zhen Ping arrived at Wanghai City by boat, and he came to buy salt.

Chapter 217 Zhen Ping Buys a Car

As soon as Zhen's cargo ship entered Rinan County, Lin Bei got the news from the sergeant.

For this transaction with the Zhen family, Lin Bei still paid more attention to it. After telling He Ming to guard Linjiang City, Lin Bei and Bian Ji rushed back to Wanghai City and prepared to receive Zhen Ping in person.

Bian Ji didn't quite understand Lin Bei's approach. He thought that although Zhen's firm came from a long distance, it was still just a business. Explain to Bian Ji the principle of no business, no wealth.

At the wharf of Wanghai City, eight large ships of the Zhen family slowly entered. These eight large ships, like the cargo ships of the Jin family, were all five feet long, because this type of ship was the mainstream cargo ship in the Three Kingdoms era, and large caravans were transported by water. Cargo is used in such ships.

Zhen Ping was the first to get off the board, walked onto the pier, and knelt down to Lin Bei, with no lack of etiquette: "I haven't seen you for several months, and you are even more handsome."

It is true that Lin Bei has grown a bit longer, and now he is nearly 22 meters. Zhen Ping has met Lin Bei several times, but every time he feels that this adult has changed a lot, as if he is becoming more and more majestic and scary. When seeing other high officials, Zhen Ping might not necessarily perform such a great gift, but when it came to Lin Bei, Zhen Ping didn't even have to think about it.

Lin Bei nodded at him, and smiled: "You don't have to come here, too."

Hearing Lin Bei's words, Zhen Ping's eyes widened, feeling a little horrified.

"Let's go, follow me into the city first, you'll come from a long way, I've already ordered drinks and banquets to be prepared for you."

Lin Bei turned around, and Zhen Ping followed Lin Bei in a daze, before speaking softly after a while: "My lord, are you able to speak?"

Lin Bei laughed again, he liked seeing people surprised.Zhen Ping was silent for a while, and then said with emotion: "My lord is really extraordinary. You are worthy of being the dragon god."

To be honest, Zhen Ping's heart was shaken. A talking dragon god and an unspoken dragon god are completely different concepts. Now Zhen Ping has a little faith in Lin Bei as a dragon god. Could it be that the dragon god in front of him Is your lord really that real dragon?Thinking about the current decline of the Central Plains, Zhen Ping wondered if he should send an urgent report to the patriarch, asking the patriarch to put his bets on this Lord Dragon God, instead of the four generations and three princes of the Yuan family.

Following behind Lin Bei, Zhen Ping secretly looked at Lin Bei.After observing the current Wanghai City, the more I look at it, the more I feel that this Lord Dragon God is really capable. He has never been to Lurong County before, but later he learned about Lurong County. This county is very It is dilapidated. I don't think that Lin Bei built the dilapidated Lurong County so well in just two months. You can see big trees everywhere, the roads are wide and flat, and the houses are quite neat and clean.It must have been spent a lot of effort to build this city. In addition, Zhen Ping also focused on observing the residents of Wanghai City. All of these common people had ruddy complexions.Obviously life is not bad. Seeing Lin Bei passing by, some knelt down and some clasped their hands.But there was an expression of fanatical admiration on their faces, seeing this expression.Zhen Ping knew that Lin Bei's prestige was extremely high.As long as he said a bad word about Lin Bei in front of these people, he would probably be beaten to death by these common people.

This kind of prestige is hard to come by. Apart from Lin Bei's status as the dragon god, it is obvious that Lin Bei is worshiped by the common people because he can bring them a good life.

"However, in just two months, Wanghai City has already been in this situation. It's really extraordinary. Compared with that barbaric city, Wanghai City seems to be better." Zhen Ping compared in his heart, and then Lin Bei's position in Zhen Ping's heart became clear. Getting heavier and heavier.

Two seven or eight-year-old children came over on two bicycles, then got off the bicycle, kowtowed respectfully to Lin Bei, and Lin Bei raised his tail: "Go, don't fall."

The two children got into the car again, laughing and walking away.

Zhen Ping kept staring at the bicycle, thinking how could it run so fast with just two wheels, seeing that Lin Bei didn't mean to explain, Zhen Ping asked, "My lord, what was that just now?"

Lin Bei didn't speak, Bian Ji twirled his beard and smiled, "This is a bicycle, a strange thing thought up for Lord Dragon God."

"Bicycle?" Zhen Ping read it twice: "This thing really lives up to its name. It can run on its own. I wonder if this thing can be bought or sold?"

Lin Bei stopped his body: "Do you want to buy a bicycle?"

Zhen Ping nodded, "This thing is very ingenious, and it's very interesting to watch. The villain does have some intentions."

Lin Bei smiled: "Yes, of course it can be sold."

It would be a fool not to sell it. Bicycles have no technical content at all. Lin Bei never thought of using bicycles for profit, but since Zhen Ping said he wanted to buy them, Lin Bei had to sell them.

In addition to the lack of technical content, bicycles have high requirements for roads. Mrs. Zhen wants to buy them back. If bicycles are popularized, people who buy bicycles will probably have to repair roads. This is a good thing for the entire Central Plains. , Lin Bei is very happy to see it. In addition, Lin Bei also thought about it before. If the roads in the Central Plains are all open, the heroes will not be able to survive in the Central Plains. Maybe they will go abroad to stir up trouble. If this happens , That's so great, Lin Bei probably wakes up laughing from his dream.

"My lord, can you really sell it?" Zhen Ping couldn't believe it, it was so easy?

"Of course, not only will I sell you a bicycle, but I can also sell you the technology of how to make a bicycle. With this technology, you Zhen can make thousands of bicycles."

Zhen Ping suddenly felt that there was a pie in the sky, but then, Zhen Ping became vigilant again. In Zhen Ping's impression, this adult is not so easy to talk to.

"Don't worry, I just think that your Zhen's firm can be regarded as a partner for cooperation, and the cooperation has been very pleasant, so I made this decision."

"Master Xie thinks highly of me, Mrs. Zhen." Only then did Zhen Ping feel relieved, that's why.

Zhen Ping followed Lin Bei into the City Lord's Mansion. His entourage was entertained by others. Zhen Shisan was also waiting in the City Lord's Mansion. Seeing Zhen Ping, Zhen Shisan hurried to greet him.

"Zhen Shisan is now in charge of my Wanghai City Salt Farm, Zhen Ping, you don't mind, do you?"

Zhen Ping could only laugh and said: "My lord can think highly of Zhen Shisan, it's his luck." Then he said to Zhen Shisan: "In the future, you have to work hard for your lord, don't think about the Zhen family anymore."

Zhen Shisan nodded, feeling bitter.He knew it would be like this.

"Then take your seat."

The banquet in this era is not a big round table, but a method of sharing food.Just like what you see on TV, the owner is sitting on it.There is a couch in front of it, on which there are fine wines and food, guests or accompanying guests sit at the lower end and on both sides, and there are also couches in front of them, if it is more luxurious, you can also ask some singers to perform songs and dances, Lin Bei is naturally not interested in singing and dancing performances, Lin Bei sat at the head, accompanied by Bian Ji and Zhen Shisan.Zhen Ping is the guest, with Lin Bei and Bian Ji present, the standard is considered to be the highest.

With a symbolic gesture, Lin Bei said: "You drink on your own, and leave me alone."

Lin Bei was too scary when he was eating, so he was just putting on a show at this time, he couldn't put a few whole cows and sheep on the couch, could he?

Bian Ji knew it naturally, so he raised his wine glass and began to persuade the shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper Zhen came from a long way. Please drink a glass of water and wine. This glass of wine Bian Ji will respect the shopkeeper Zhen on behalf of the adults."

Zhen Ping and Zhen Shisan hurriedly raised their wine glasses, and signaled to Lin Bei again, before they drank it down in one gulp.As soon as he drank the wine, Zhen Ping's face became agitated.

This is mango wine, of course.It is now called Moro Fruit Wine, after harvesting the mangoes.There is a lot left, and it all belongs to Lin Bei.Lin Bei originally thought that he should never get tired of eating a hundred times, but he would find it hard to get bored after eating only a few mangoes. Although he can control most of the instincts of his body, this body obviously only likes meat. Although fruits can also be eaten, But I can't taste any taste, and I can't waste it, so I can only make it into fruit wine.

In fact, Lin Bei wanted to make candied fruit at first, but at the last thought, he had to pack it to make candied fruit. With the current level of technology, vacuum packaging is definitely not available, and it will break in a few days, so he thought twice and decided to make it into a bar.

After making the wine, it surprised Lin Bei. The mango wine tasted sweet, and Lin Bei also drank some. He felt that the taste was still bearable, so he could drink a few glasses from time to time.
