Chapter 169 Temple

Zhuge Liang was also a little troubled. It was no problem to ask him to give advice, but it was really difficult to ask for money...

But Liu Yi can be said to have made great contributions to Liu Bei's achievements this time. Whether it was the attack on Jiangling so smoothly, or whether Liu Yi helped Liu Bei to wipe out the four counties in Jingnan with two thousand troops, it would be unreasonable not to reward these contributions.

Thirty million sounds quite a lot, but compared to the gains, it is not much. The problem is that Liu Bei Group cannot afford so much money at once.

Zhuge Liang shook the feather fan, looked at Liu Bei and smiled, "I wonder what the lord can take now?"

If it was a big construction, Zhuge Liang would definitely not allow it. Liu Bei's power has not reached that time yet, but it is undoubtedly a good thing for Liu Bei to exchange for a strong city of 30 million yuan. It is not just as simple as one more city. The most important thing is that this city was built by Liu Yi and Zhuge Liang has also been to the Mocheng. It is difficult to believe all kinds of wonders. He also believed that Liu Yi wanted to build a city this time, not a sudden idea, but had this plan. If conditions permit, Zhuge Liang would be happy to see it.

"At most..." Liu Bei calculated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "At most, 50% of Bo Yuan can be supplied."

Zhuge Liang thought, "Fifty percent is enough. Now Mocheng is located at the junction of the two families, and there are many troubles. Bo Yuan also wrote in his letter that he hopes to reunite with his family. Why don't the lord send his family, the lord and the general coins to Guiyang first? In addition, Liang suggested that the lord submit a report to the court and ask Bo Yuan to be the prefect of Changsha to facilitate the construction."

"Boyuan is probably..." Liu Bei frowned. Liu Yi had already said clearly that he did not want to pay attention to military and political affairs. He just wanted to build a city as soon as possible. Even if Liu Yi accepted the title of official, he would probably not be happy.

"The lord can hand over the position of county magistrate to Bo Yuan. As for whom it is, it is up to Bo Yuan himself to decide." Zhuge Liang said with a smile and shook his feather fan.

The county magistrate is the main clerk under the prefect. Liu Yi is unwilling to do it, so he can let the county magistrate worry about these mundane affairs. As for who is the county magistrate, it depends on who Liu Yi can ask for help.

Liu Bei was puzzled at first, but when he looked at Zhuge Liang's confident look, he suddenly realized that there was a talented person beside Liu Yi who was unwilling to become an official? He smiled and said, "Kong Ming's words are in line with my heart. Then he ordered Zilong to go to Mocheng to escort Bo Yuan's family and Qianhuo to Guiyang, and Zilong will temporarily take over as the prefect of Guiyang."

"Here!" Zhao Yun, who was following Liu Bei, bowed and bowed when he heard this.

Zhuge Liang smiled and shook the feather fan, looking at the river in the distance. He had promised Cui Zhouping that he would not invite him, and Liu Bei would not bother him, but Liu Yi was not here. Now that Liu Bei has newly won Jingzhou, there are many scholars from Jingzhou who come to vote, but the quality is different, and those who are truly useful have not been selected yet. It is a pity that Cui Zhouping is not able to use such a ready-made talent.

Now that Cao's army is newly defeated and busy with defense, Liu Bei has newly acquired Jiangling and Jingnan County. It is time to rest and recuperate. Liu Yi wanted to carry out construction and was in line with Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's intentions. However, the treasury could not be obtained at once, so he could only allocate some to Liu Yi first. When the Liu Bei's regime becomes stable in the future, he will send it to Liu Yi one after another. Anyway, they know Liu Yi's methods, and the 30 million yuan is not something they need to use at once.

Liu Bei made up his mind to ask Zhao Yun to pick up people. Of course, even if Liu Yi's family was not in Mocheng, Liu Bei in Mocheng did not intend to give it to Jiangdong. Although it was just a hamlet, in Liu Bei's opinion, it was better than an ordinary county town. If the place was not too biased, Liu Bei wanted to move in.

Chen County, Liu Yi will take Huang Zhong and Wei Yan around the city for no reason these days, and Liu Yi has now taken off his burden. As long as the person sent by Liu Bei takes office, he will prepare to go to Dongting Lake to see the terrain, then summon people to dig up the outline of the city first.

"Sir, you have been checking around the city these days. What are you looking at?" Wei Yan looked at Liu Yi with some curiosity. He couldn't help it. What was Liu Yi doing? In the past few days, he saw that Liu Yi was either looking around or chatting with some old people. The conversation was all about customs and habits, which made Wei Yan very puzzled.

"I'm going to build a temple in this Chen County." Liu Yi thought to find out whether these statues can bring special attributes like those carved totems. Anyway, the totems he made before, the Yinglong carved on the ship and other special attributes can basically bring one or two special attributes.

Liu Yi wanted to try in Chen County whether the statue of God built can bring any changes to this city. What he wants to do most now is to increase the population. In this war-torn era, population is capital.

"Temple?" Wei Yan said in confusion: "Sir, do you believe this?"

"It doesn't matter whether I believe it or not. As long as it is done by me, it will be useful." Liu Yi shook his head. He does not believe in ghosts and gods, but only believes in himself. I don't know whether God is useful or not. The God he created will definitely work. It is just right to take this opportunity to see if he can help him break through to Level 6.

Wei Yan was shocked by Liu Yi's sudden domineering aura. Huang Zhong even looked at Liu Yi with a strange look. When Liu Yi won battles one after another, Liu Yi did not show such extreme confidence.

Liu Yi didn't explain either. He had chosen several places and there was still some money in the Chen County treasury, which happened to be used for use.

Liu Yi didn't use clay sculptures much, but he took advantage of the last time he built a city, but he also reached level 4, and it was not far from level 5.

"Let's go back, Zhao Fan will have to help you with this matter." Seeing that the information collected was almost complete, Liu Yi took Huang Zhong and Wei Yan straight back to the yamen office.

In the yamen office, Zhao Fan was already waiting there.

"Zhao Fujun is here just in time. I have something to discuss with you." Liu Yi smiled when he saw Zhao Fan.

"I wonder what sir has to give me?" Zhao Fan said with a smile.

"I checked the four sides these days and found that there were no temples in this city, so I wanted to build a few temples, but I needed the support of the Duke." Liu Yi smiled.

Zhao Fan was stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect that Liu Yi came for this matter. In fact, if the world was not in chaos, Liu Yi's approach was somewhat over-ritual. The Book of Etiquette clearly stipulates the establishment of temples. The emperor's seven temples, five temples, three temples of scholars and officials, and one temple of scholars. Building a temple is not a trivial matter. At least you can't just make such a hasty decision. If you want to build a temple, you can build a temple, but if there is a chaos today and the rituals and music are broken, this kind of thing will not be so strict.

What the fist says is just the truth.

So after Zhao Fan was slightly stunned, he just smiled and said, "This is not difficult. I wonder which temple is wise to build?"

In its opinion, Liu Yi built a temple just for his ancestors.

"A Bixia Yuanjun Temple." Liu Yishu said: "In addition, I want to build a temple for General Yun Chang, the Confucius Temple, and a Temple of God of Wealth."

Well……

Zhao Fan looked confused. Guan Yu was easy to understand. Do you flatter him? There are also temples for Kong Sheng, but what the hell is Bixia Yuanjun and the Temple of God of Wealth?

"Sir, don't worry, I'll order people to raise people and build materials to build a temple." Finally, Zhao Fan smiled, but he smiled a little reluctantly. He thought it was just one, but who knew that Liu Yi would build four temples at once, which would cost at least hundreds of thousands of yuan.

"I only need to recruit thirty people, materials, I will come in person to build the temple, and prepare another 100,000 yuan." Liu Yi shook his head. What effect can someone else build?

Bixia Yuanjun is the god in charge of giving birth in Taoism. As for Guan Yu... Liu Yi actually wanted to find a god who represents loyalty and righteousness, but this kind of god is not easy to find, so Liu Yi chose Guan Gong Temple. Although Guan Yu is still alive, no one said that the temple is just a sacrifice to the dead, right?

"Don't worry, sir." Zhao Fan nodded. It was the first time he had seen him so blatantly that he had asked for money. He really didn't know how to be tactful.

"Is there anything wrong?" Liu Yi said in confusion as he looked at Zhao Fan who was standing still.

"Sir, the local gentry has repeatedly invited Mr. to the banquet. I'm afraid it's a bit of refusal..." Zhao Fan looked at Liu Yi and said with a wry smile.

When Liu Yi heard this, he narrowed his eyes and nodded and said, "Okay, this time when Guiyang is building this temple, it is thanks to the help of local gentry. Yi has thanked him since the lord of the acting lord. Why don't I hold a banquet tonight? How about the banquet for local gentry?"

"This..." Zhao Fan looked at Liu Yi, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll order people to prepare."

"Sir, I always feel that Zhao Fujun is a little..." Huang Zhong frowned as he watched Zhao Fan leave in a hurry.

"Do you have ulterior motives?" Liu Yi asked with a smile on his face.

Huang Zhong nodded. Zhao Fan looked honest and kind, but Huang Zhong had lived a lifetime and still had a look at people.

"So I'll hold a banquet myself." Liu Yi smiled. He was also worried that Zhao Fan would be ill-telling about him, so he said that he had held a banquet before. Judging from Zhao Fan's performance, he didn't seem to have thought about making trouble on this matter, but instead made him confused for a while.

"Wen Chang, go and order someone to buy ingredients, I'll cook a few cauldrons." Liu Yi looked at Wei Yan and said, "Pick it."

Wei Yan nodded when he heard this and said goodbye and left.

Liu Yi couldn't think of the reason, so he simply stopped thinking about it and asked Huang Zhong to rest first, and then he returned to the study and began to design these four temples.

The four temples represent reproduction, fortune, loyalty and righteousness, and learning, which are not to be blasphemed. The statues themselves must reveal the meaning of their own symbols from their expressions. For example, Bixia Yuanjun should be full of maternal love, Guan Yu is righteous and loyal, the God of Wealth must be versatile, but not lose his majesty, and Confucius must be kind.

Based on some of his experiences in his previous life, Liu Yi already had a curse in his mind. Confucius' portraits were very popular in later generations, and Guan Yu had a prototype, but Bixia Yuanjun and the God of Wealth had to rely on themselves to imagine it out of thin air.

In the afternoon, Liu Yi went to build a few big pots and handed them over to the servants in the yamen for use. At dusk, Zhao Fan brought various famous scholars and gentry from Guiyang to the yamen. The originally empty yamen began to become lively.
