Chapter 272 The World of Sui and Tang Dynasties Is Unlocked, Brother Dao Upgrades Again! 【Ask for Monthly Ticket】
"My dear brother, can you prepare a batch of items suitable for rewards?"
Lu Bu did not explain the content of Plan B, but chewed a piece of chicken butt and talked about the upcoming big reward.
Although all the gold, silver and jewelry in Xiwu were brought to Chang'an and added to the national treasury and internal treasury, this reward is to encourage everyone and increase their confidence, so some special things must be rewarded.
In addition, getting a batch of modern supplies can also be used as salary and distributed to officials.
Now the whole land of Sanqin is suffering. If the real world had not been supporting supplies, and the food in Xiwu was not destroyed, the tragedy of cannibalism would have probably happened again.
The salaries of the officials could not be paid out in real terms and could only be cashed in with other things.
Li Yu thought for a while and said:
"Then let's get a batch of living supplies. You can discuss how to distribute them."
Such as towels, quilts, glass mirrors, reading glasses, towels, soaps, perfumes, toilet water, etc., prepare some supplies that can be wholesaled in large quantities. It is time for the officials to experience the benefits of following Liu Xie.
Well, after seeing the miracle and adding some practical benefits, I wonder if some courtiers will be so moved that they will faint in tears on the day of the big reward.
After talking about the reward, Li Yu asked:
"How are the food prices in Chang'an City?"
"There have been ups and downs. Previously, several merchants in the city were instructed by aristocratic families to drive up the price of grain. Mr. Wenhe had people use drones to find the location of the granary, confirm that there was a large amount of grain stored in it, and directly kill all the merchants. The aristocratic family who instigated them was also killed by Guo Jia I invited him over for a cup of tea, and then he took the initiative to donate 50,000 dendrobium of grain, crying, and threatened to commit suicide if he didn’t accept it.”
Damn, it seems that Guo Jia was scared a lot.
Grain dealers in troubled times really have to crack down, otherwise they can sell grain at sky-high prices.
When Li Jue and Guo Si brought disaster to Chang'an, the price of grain was higher than gold. Even in Xishu under Zhuge Liang's rule, there was a record that "millet and gold were the same price."
A batch of salt had been shipped to Chang'an before to stabilize prices. At the same time, it was also stipulated that all grains must be supplied in limited quantities and large-volume purchases were prohibited.
However, in an era of food shortage, curbing food traders only treats the symptoms but not the root cause.
Li Yu picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said to Lu Bu:
“It is still necessary to introduce more relief-for-work measures, such as building roads, sewers, city walls, burning brick kilns, etc. People can be invited to participate.”
Lu Bu took a big mouthful of noodles and said:
"Don't worry, brother, everything is planned. Next, we will clear out the forts around Chang'an, take out the food hidden in them for disaster relief, and try to get through this period as smoothly as possible."
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the situation was chaotic, coupled with the Yellow Turban Rebellion, local powerful people and wealthy families built large and small forts to store food and protect their families.
Later, Wubao became a place to hide people and raise dead soldiers.
At the end of the Three Kingdoms, the population dropped sharply. Except for those who died from famine and war, almost all the rest were hidden by aristocratic families.
Now we need to vigorously develop the Guanzhong Plain. Wubao, a place where a large population is hidden and a large amount of food is hoarded, must be resolutely banned.
In addition, all kinds of banditry in the Guanzhong Plain must be eliminated as much as possible.
If you want to create a peaceful and prosperous era, it is not enough to have land; you must also allow people to live and work in peace and contentment.
While they were chatting, Zhou Ruotong and Mu Guiying came back.
The two bought a bunch of furniture and various decorations. Zhou Ruotong originally wanted to put up wallpaper, but considering that wallpaper is the hardest hit area by formaldehyde, he decided against it.
Although Mu Guiying is protected by her empress and cannot be harmed by formaldehyde, it is better to have less exposure.
Li Yu walked out of the study and saw several workers carrying a large European-style wrought iron bed into the room. He asked with some confusion:
"Why don't you sleep with Simmons?"
"Guiying liked the wrought iron bed as soon as she saw it. She also said that if there is a shortage of iron in the village in the future, it can be moved away to make steel... Not only is the bed made of wrought iron, but other furniture is also in this style."
Good guy, is this changed from the bright yellow royal style to the iron-blooded style?
There are wrought iron beds, wrought iron tables, wrought iron cabinets, wrought iron table lamps, wrought iron chandeliers, wrought iron dressing tables, etc. If you add a railing at the door, it will be a prison theme.
Mu Guiying also selected some metal crafts that can be placed on the table or hung on the wall, which are obviously different from the warm and sweet style of Diao Chan's room 201.
Lu Bu took a look at the basin and couldn't help but said:
"It's very similar to the place where agents live in movies and TV shows."
Mu Guiying immediately acted like a senior sister:
"Junior brother, senior sister doesn't like hearing what you are saying. I originally planned to support you with a carload of pumpkins, but now it seems..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Bu hurriedly changed his words:
"Senior Sister, this room is filled with the heroic feeling of being drunk on the battlefield, and at the same time, it also implies the bravery and heroic demeanor of a warrior and an iron horse. She is worthy of the famous Queen. Even if she lives in the real world for a short while, she never forgets to push herself... There is such a thing Your Majesty, you are truly a blessing to Muke Village, a blessing to the Song Dynasty, a blessing to China, and a blessing to the earth..."
Mu Guiying was defeated:
"Okay, okay, I'll give you two carts of pumpkins. I can't stand listening to you anymore."
Lu Bu took a bite of noodles:
"I haven't talked about the Milky Way yet... I heard that you need to burn the bottom of a pot before you can live in a new house. Why don't you burn the bottom of a pot for Senior Sister today before going back?"
Li Yu: "..."
Your methods of cheating people out of food and drink are getting better and better!
He handed Liu Xie’s mobile phone to Tong Baobao, the chief think tank of the B&B:
"First disciple recorded a video. Take a look. There is a reply from me in the note. You can add a few more words."
"good."
After taking the phone, Zhou Ruotong took out a room card from his bag and opened room 201 next door.
As soon as she walked in, Mu Guiying leaned next to Li Yu and quietly gave a thumbs up:
"Sir, you can actually make Fairy Xiaochan and Sister Zhou have such a good relationship. It's amazing. When I become the emperor in the future, don't forget to teach me how to rule the harem."
Li Yu wordlessly handed her the wrought iron table lamp:
"Go and clean up the room. The beatings I received recently are all related to your school."
The empress ordered two daughters-in-law, and Lu Bu kept cheering along. Coupled with Bandit Mu who was watching the fun and not taking it too seriously, the entire school became a merry maker.
After all the furniture was arranged, Zhou Ruotong also came out of Room 201 after watching the video.
Everyone took a look at Room 202. The mainly black wrought iron furniture and decoration, paired with white walls, gave it a bit of industrial simplicity.
Mu Guiying jumped on the bed, rolled again, and said with a smile:
“Finally I’m not afraid of Fairy Little Chan taking my quilt!”
Zhou Ruotong plugged in the newly purchased small refrigerator and adjusted the temperature:
"Put your favorite drink in it later. You will always have an iced drink when you want to drink it... Have you changed the toilet seat? I will teach you how to use the smart toilet. Don't get used to it."
"That's great, thank you sister Zhou."
Li Yu saw that the two people had gone to the bathroom and the topic of conversation was relatively private, so he led Lu Bu to the study.
Not long after, Zhou Ruotong came over and put Liu Xie's cell phone on the table:
"I added a few more points and asked him to ask Mr. Wenhe for advice if he had any questions."
Now that there are more people, Jia Xu consciously enters the fishing mode. It is time for him to take care of his student Liu Xie.
After finishing the noodles, Lu Bu put on his cell phone and said goodbye.
"Xiaochan has adapted to school life and gets along well with her roommates, but she always says that the school food is not as delicious as your cooking. I want to eat your sweet and sour pork ribs when I come back next weekend."
After Zhou Ruotong finished speaking, Li Yu agreed:
"No problem, isn't this a piece of cake... What would Baby Tong want to eat tonight? I'll cook it for you myself."
You can't just promise to make delicious food for the little girl, otherwise Professor Zhou will take action again.
"You can eat whatever you want. I like everything you cook."
Next, Zhou Ruotong began to purchase the rewards Liu Xie wanted to give to the courtiers through the trading company, as well as some brushes, rice paper, inkstones, paperweights, etc., to enrich the rewards of the officials as much as possible.
In the evening, Li Yu and Mu Guiying drove a truck and took away all the scrap metal collected from the scrapyard.
Now basically one truck can be pulled away every week, and iron ore can also be dug in Mukezhai, and steel production has entered the fast lane.
The weapons in Muke Village have been updated for a round, and all the weapons of the captives in the Song Dynasty were melted down and remade.
In addition, a lot of arrowheads were processed, and Mu Guiying also exchanged artificial gems for a batch of crossbows and arrows. The arms industry in Muke Village was developing rapidly, with hundreds of people joining in with their families every day.
"Sir, do you want me to limit the population?"
New people defected every day, which was a good thing, but over time, some people with ulterior motives would inevitably mix in, making it difficult to manage, so Mu Guiying planned to take a break and wait for the new arrivals to return home before accepting the refugees again.
Li Yu thought for a while and said:
"You can centrally manage the newly joined refugees and observe them carefully. You should be able to tell whether they have endured hardship and whether they are Lianjiazi."
The more people there are, the better. In addition, Muke Village has become a big dyeing vat. No matter what background or background, as long as you eat a few big pot dishes, you can completely return to your heart. There is no need to be too cautious at this time.
Moreover, if the refugees are kept out, if they starve to death, the good deeds will turn into sins, and the gain will not be worth the loss.
"Thank you sir, I will let people observe more."
Mu Guiying sent the scrap metal back and came to the real world. Humming an unknown song, she happily walked into Room 202 in the military style and officially started a new life here.
Li Yu patrolled around and was about to go upstairs to rest when he met Qin Qiong, who came back specially to excavate the machine.
"Second brother is preparing to build roads again?"
Qin Qiong said with a smile:
"I found a suitable place to build a cottage. There happens to be a river nearby. Brother Yu plans to dig it with an excavator and dig a river channel at the gate of the cottage to give the cottage an extra layer of defense."
The dignified prince has actually become a small contractor... Li Yu asked:
"Who is the second brother going to make the master of the cottage?"
"Brother Wang Bodang recently traveled to Taiyuan. We happened to meet each other on the street and told him about this matter. He planned to help. However, he also said that if Li Mi summoned him in the future, he would defect to him immediately. He also hoped that I would not be angry. "
This guy is really tied to Li Mi.
But it's nice to be able to help, as it solves an urgent need.
As for the gradual reform in the future, with Li Shimin here, there shouldn't be much problem in winning over people's hearts.
Li Yu asked again:
"Do you want to bring Cheng Yaojin over? He is about to rob the emperor."
Qin Qiong and Cheng Yaojin are young, and they have been struggling with this matter recently:
"Actually, Brother Yu doesn't want Yao Jin to participate in the robbery of the emperor. Now that I have the opportunity to follow the future emperor, I plan to go back and ask him. If he wants to come, of course it will be the best. If he doesn't come, then let him develop."
Cheng Yaojin is the devil incarnate, and he can turn danger into good fortune. There is no need to worry about what danger he will encounter. At most, the plot in the original work can be replayed.
After dawn, Li Yu came back from running and saw Qin Qiong again.
The ditch over there has been dug, and the excavator is full of mud. It doesn't look like the work is that easy.
"Brother, the village is under construction now. We can bring the people from Muke Village."
Now that we have the person in charge, we should quickly send the talents there so that the bandits in Muke Village can continue to be bandits in another world, which will completely disrupt the secrets of the Sui and Tang worlds.
I wonder if the secrets of all worlds have been disrupted. Will Gouzi get any upgrade rewards?
Mu Guiying had just gotten up and saw the two of them chatting. She yawned and walked over. She heard that the Sui and Tang Dynasties were ready and would go back to Muke Village to take people with her without saying a word:
"They keep chasing me every day asking when we can see Li Shimin and Brother Qin. I'm almost bored to death... There are more people this time, so let's just have breakfast in the warehouse."
Li Yu naturally had no objection:
"Okay, my second brother and I will bring some food so that everyone can have a good meal."
In addition to food, everyone was also given a brand new set of Hanfu and walked around pretending to be tourists.
Qin Qiong went back to talk to Wang Bodang and Li Shimin, and then started preparing breakfast with Li Yu.
In the past, no matter whether they were sending Ergou to Qilin Village or Siwa and the others to the Three Kingdoms World, Lu Bu and Wu Song, who were in charge of leading the people, did not accompany them because they were worried that the people in Muke Village would be nervous.
But Qin Qiong is different. He is already the idol of the bandits. Accompanying everyone in person is not only easier to contact, but also dispels the bandits' doubts.
Not long after, Mu Guiying brought people over.
After everyone had eaten and drank enough, and changed into clothes, the minibus from the Hanfu Factory also drove to the door of the B&B, ready to take everyone out to have fun and gain experience.
There were so many graduates in the third batch that the blue brand Iveco couldn't fit in, so it was replaced by Coaster from the Hanfu Factory.
Qin Qiong, Li Yu, Mu Guiying and Zhou Ruotong led the bandits from Muke Village around for a day. They played in the amusement park, visited the shopping mall, ate delicious food, drank milk tea drinks, and on the way to Longqi Mountain, one person came Ordered a piece of fruit dip and fried yogurt.
When it got dark, these people returned to the B&B again. After paying homage to the Empress, they went to the world of Sui and Tang Dynasties under the leadership of Qin Qiong.
As soon as they left, Brother Dao, who was lying on the steps listening to the girls chatting, quickly ran to the study, lay down on the carpet and fell asleep.
"Damn it, it won't really be upgraded, right?"
Li Yu came to the study and saw Gouzi sleeping. He felt very similar to the previous upgrades.
When I wake up tomorrow, I will have to interrogate him carefully.
If you can set up dual administrators, get Li Shimin out and have a chat with the emperor.
Turning on the computer, Li Yu recorded the development progress of each world, and then clicked on the game he had not played for several days, enjoying himself happily.
While they were playing, Mu Guiying came back from Muke Village. Seeing Li Yu playing games, she immediately washed the fruits obediently, brought a small basket of snacks, and asked in a clipped tone:
"Sir, can you teach me how to play the game? I am a little girl who grew up in a ravine. I don't know how to play the game yet. I want to experience it..."
Li Yu pointed to the computer Wu Song was playing on before and said:
"It's also on top. You open it first and I'll teach you later."
Upon hearing this, Mu Guiying quickly turned on the computer, found the game icon, double-clicked it to open it, and then, under Li Yu's guidance, began to familiarize herself with the game's teaching levels.
"Don't rush to play it yet. Go through the tutorial level twice to feel the tacit understanding of the combination of mouse and key, and then you can click on the game to experience it."
Mainstream shooting games are not too difficult, especially in newcomer mode, you can get started quickly.
By the time Li Yu went back to his room to sleep at half past ten, the future Queen had completely evolved into an internet-addicted girl.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect the game to be so fun. No wonder Sir would rather be taught by Sister Zhou than play the game. It's really fun... Don't worry, Sir, I will definitely cover for you and don't tell Sister Zhou that you played the game all night."
Li Yu smiled and said:
"It's okay if you say so. I've already told her that I want to have fun playing games tonight."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you have to report even if you are playing a game, how pitiful... If Fairy Little Chan takes care of you from now on, wouldn't it be a double yoke? When you need me to cover, just say, I will never refuse!"
You are so loyal... Li Yu returned to the room, washed himself and lay on the bed, only to find that both Diao Chan and Zhou Ruotong had sent messages.
"Sir, I only scored 148 points in today's math proficiency test, but I didn't get the full score of 150. I'm crying [aggrieved] [aggrieved] [aggrieved]"
Good guy, can you get 148 points in third grade mathematics?
These should be among the top few in the whole grade, right?
Are you crying? I think you're here to show off!
Li Yu gave a series of thumbs up:
"My baby Cicada is so awesome. When I come back next week, I will not only make sweet and sour pork ribs for you, but also add sweet and sour fish and cola chicken wings, so that baby Cicada will enjoy it!"
After replying to the message, he clicked on Zhou Ruotong's profile picture.
This news is more interesting:
"The Oracle paper was rejected, saying that my reasoning was unreasonable... Grandpa said that if there is another Shang Dynasty expert in our family, the entire ancient history will be decided by the Zhou family, so some experts have united to exclude us. "
It seems that this is suppressed regardless of whether it is right or wrong.
Li Yu asked:
"What to do next? Continue to publish papers?"
"Yes, from now on I will write a paper on Oracle when I am not busy. Not only will I publish the undeciphered text, but I will also correct the existing interpretations and readings."
If the experts jointly suppress it, then this side will slap you in the face without mercy.
Anyway, if you don't understand something, just ask Zishou for advice. If necessary, you can also ask Wen Zhong to quickly make a few bronzes for support.
He chatted with the two for a while, then put down his phone and went to sleep, planning to go to the study early tomorrow morning to hang the dog up for interrogation.
However, when he got up in the morning, he found that the dog was still sleeping soundly, without even turning over.
Li Yu turned over Gouzi and went to do other things.
Until the afternoon, when he was hesitating whether to wake Brother Dao up, the golden retriever lying on the ground finally slowly opened his eyes...
