006 Longzhong is right

"How about we go and take a look at the farm first?" Zhuge Liang asked.

"You haven't been there?" Zhuge Tian asked curiously.

"Of course not. I went to Yuzhang with my uncle since I was a child..."

When talking about his uncle, Zhuge Liang felt a little sad.

His father died early and he was raised by his uncle.

He felt that he had learned military tactics quite well, but when Yuzhang was attacked, he had not much to do. In the end, his uncle died, and he had no choice but to flee to Xiangyang.

"Okay, let's go and take a look." Zhuge Tian agreed. He had been here for half a year and had never been to Longzhong.

Or it could be said that he had rarely left Deng County.

"Can I... use that... iron horse you had that day?"

Zhuge Liang asked with stars in his eyes.

"Iron horse? Oh, you mean the motorcycle?" Zhuge Tian shook his head. "The fuel consumption is too high. If Old Man Huang hadn't been drunk that day, we wouldn't have had to ride a motorcycle to rescue you."

The prices on his shopping platform are the lowest at ordinary times, all based on the end of the world.

In the end times, food, weapons and gasoline are the most expensive things.

That day, he went to rescue Zhuge Liang and ran back and forth for only more than ten kilometers, but it cost him two strings of gas.

This month has not yet ended. If I buy it now, a trip to Longzhong will probably cost me another 2 guan, which is a balance of yuan.

"Oil? What kind of oil? My brother-in-law owns an oil mill in Xiangyang. If you need it, I can ask him to sell you some at a low price."

"It's not that kind of oil. You can't get it anyway, so there's no need. Just ride the horse."

After hearing what Zhuge Tian said, Zhuge Liang guessed that the oil he was talking about should be something like magic oil.

Think about it, Zhuge Tian actually used such a precious thing to save himself that day.

Even though Zhuge Tian accepted the money later, Zhuge Liang felt that the amount was not worth mentioning.

Several people harnessed a carriage, and Zhuge Tian borrowed a warhorse from Old Man Huang.

A means of transportation like a horse-drawn carriage always made him feel like he was putting his life in someone else's hands.

Even though he is not good at riding, he still feels more at ease riding a horse.

Zhuge Liang had never been to his farm, but his close followers were originally his uncle's men, and someone had come to take care of it before.

Lead the way in front, and you will reach the end of the field in just ten miles.

"Sir, this farm is yours from here to there!"

The man waved his hand and circled a large area.

But Zhuge Tian was a little disappointed. Although it was called a farm, it looked like basically wasteland.

Not to mention the farmers working, there weren't even many crops to be seen in the fields.

Zhuge Liang said somewhat awkwardly, "I heard this place has been neglected, so it looks a bit dilapidated..."

The population had already dropped sharply in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. With Huang Zhong in charge of Deng County, the public security was considered good, but still some bandits dared to attack the city.

If a farm in the suburbs doesn't have a few hundred young and strong guards, it will be preyed upon by others.

Although the land is fertile, the crops in the land will be looted by various bandits before they can be harvested.

Over time, the land naturally became abandoned, and the crops in the land now are the result of seeds that fell there in the past and grew naturally.

When it is about to mature, the people nearby may come here to search for it.

Going further ahead, there is a small village, which is also deserted and empty.

Zhuge Liang sighed and said, "Clean up this place. We'll live here from now on."

Although my sister is in Xiangyang, she is married after all.

It was possible to help him occasionally, but as for supporting him, even if Zhuge Liang's sister was willing, he himself was unwilling to do so.

He has more than a hundred followers, most of whom are young and strong. They can repair this place and cultivate the fields outside. There will be no problem with their future life.

After saying that, he secretly glanced at Zhuge Tian. At first, Zhuge Tian said that he wanted to run the farm together, but he didn't expect that the farm had become so dilapidated. He didn't know whether he was still willing.

In fact, Zhuge Tian didn't care. Zhuge Liang had manpower and there were fields here, so things could grow in the land.

In addition, Old Man Huang is guarding Deng County nearby, so there can be support, so there shouldn't be any big problems.

"Please help me clean up a room too. I'll move my shop here. When the time comes, give me whatever you want to plant here, including seeds and so on."

Zhuge Liang was overjoyed to hear that Zhuge Tian was still willing to come.

Pointing to the largest courtyard in the middle of the village, he asked, "Is this courtyard big enough?"

Zhuge Tian looked around and saw that this place was much larger than the yard in Deng County. He nodded and said, "It's big enough."

"That's great!" Zhuge Liang said excitedly to his attendant, "Please clean up my cousin's yard first, and then I'll live next door to him."

"What? Boy, you want to move here?" Huang Zhong, who followed, was not happy.

"In Deng County, at least we have the city walls to protect us, so I can still protect you. If you come here and get into danger, I might not be able to save you in time!"

"It's okay, Old Man Huang!" Zhuge Tian said with a smile, "Thank you so much for the past six months. Can you protect me forever? Besides, this place is not far from Deng County. If there is any danger, you can be there in a flash!"

In fact, in this chaotic world, even Deng County is only temporarily safe.

Moreover, Jingzhou was under the governance of Liu Biao, and there were no major wars, at least before his death.

Zhuge Liang was able to stay here safely until Liu Bei visited him three times before he came out.

So there is not much difference between Deng County and Longzhong Village.

"When the time comes, we will also give Deng County 10% of the profits from Longzhong Village." He said this while looking at Zhuge Liang.

After all, this will be a joint business between the two of them.

Zhuge Liang nodded quickly: "Of course it should be done this way!"

Although he had more than a hundred young and strong men, if he encountered bandits of the same scale as last time, even if he could buy a lot of good things from Zhuge Tian, ​​there would probably be heavy casualties in the fight.

It would be much safer if Huang Zhong from Deng County could support them.

"Okay!" Huang Zhong also knew that with Zhuge Tian's talent, there was no way the small Deng County could trap him.

"Last time, you said that Xu'er and Wudie could study with you. When you come over, I will send them here during the day and pick them up at night!"

"Hahaha, if you really want to study, learn from him." Zhuge Tian pointed at Zhuge Liang.

He just has more experience, but when it comes to IQ, he feels that he is far behind Zhuge Liang.

"No problem! Leave it to me!" Zhuge Liang didn't know Huang Zhong's abilities, but he felt that Zhuge Tian and he were close friends, so he was naturally willing to make friends with them.

Huang Zhong was born into a commoner family and accidentally learned a set of martial arts. It was natural for him to pass on his skills to his son, but he had no way to help his son with his studies.

In the past six months, Zhuge Tian had been teaching the two of them how to read and write when he had nothing to do. Now, hearing that Zhuge Liang was willing to do so, he thought that since he came from a noble family, his son would be able to learn a lot from him, so he hurried to express his gratitude.
