Chapter 186: Consolidate the Foundation

"So, is the third general here to take care of me?" Liu Yi sent Lu Lingqi back to the house, sat down again, and smiled at Zhang Fei.

"That's the case." Zhang Fei saw that Lu Lingqi was gone, and the person felt much more relaxed: "When I came, I saw that the ground had begun to break out there."

"Well, but now there is not enough manpower and the progress is not fast." Liu Yi nodded. Not only was there insufficient manpower, but the materials around him were also very lacking. I hope that after all the manpower was gathered, the materials needed for the foundation could be prepared.

"It's okay, there's no hurry to do this." Zhang Fei laughed loudly.

It is obvious that Zhang Fei just took a free agent and came to Liu Yi for fun. After all, the accommodation environment in Jingbei is not as comfortable as Liu Yi. In the past, Zhang Fei had always been running to Mocheng, but now Liu Bei has moved the capital to the public security. Moreover, Mocheng is now a place where Liu Bei and Jiangdong are stalemate. Zhang Fei will run to him again, which can easily cause unnecessary disputes.

Even though there are some frictions at the moment, Liu Bei and Sun Quan are still in the honeymoon period. As an important figure under Liu Bei, Zhang Fei's actions do not only represent individuals, but are often interpreted as the overall actions of Liu Bei's group.

Liu Yi was welcomed when Zhang Fei wanted to live here for a while. Once the foundation of the new city was completed, the rest would only be done step by step. With Zhang Fei as a supervisor, he could free up a lot of time to accompany his wife. According to the doctor, the day when Lu Lingqi gave birth was about April next year. Liu Yi had prepared the delivery room. After he got on track, he could free up a lot of time to accompany his wife.

In addition, a lot of things have been summarized during this period, and it also takes time to settle and organize it.

On the third day of Zhang Fei's arrival, the first group of people sent by Cui Zhouping and Cui Zhouping's letters were delivered to Liu Yi. Liu Yi did not hesitate about Cui Zhouping's request, and agreed with a wave of his pen. Anyway, it was not his own money, and it could attract population for his new city. What's the point of hesitation? Liu Bei said that Changsha County used the taxes in the past two years for him to build a city.

Liu Yi looked down on the little money for taxes, but for the people, exempting these taxes would be enough for them to live a prosperous life in the next two years.

"In this way, my husband will go to supervise the construction tomorrow?" The genius was just dawn, and Lu Lingqi, who was sleepy during the day, got up very early when she should sleep. The clothes of pregnant women are difficult to wear, and she is not convenient to move now, so she simply does not wear them and looks at Liu Yi wearing a quilt.

It has been more than a year since I got married. With Liu Yi's training, there is not much shyness at the beginning, but if I really face Liu Yi naked, I still feel shy.

"Yeah." Liu Yi nodded and said, "About January, this foundation is the foundation. I can't live without it. After January, I will ask Zhang Fei to stay there. I will build a straw shed for him and live there. I really think this is a free time."

"Husband..." Lu Lingqi looked at some excited place on Liu Yi and hesitated for a moment: "Actually, the Deng family's sister-in-law has been widowed for ten years, and now Ai'er has a good future. She said that as long as she can love others, she will be willing to be a concubine."

Liu Yi didn't react for a moment and nodded and said, "Yes, do you want me to help? Ordinary people, with the origin of Deng's sister-in-law, are afraid they are not worthy of it."

The couple lived together, not just because they were together. Deng was also a wealthy family in Nanyang. His knowledge, experience and ability were not bad. In terms of appearance, he was not as top-notch, but he could also be called a beauty. Those stars in later generations may not be comparable to those of them. Such a woman can't be controlled by ordinary people.

It’s not that Mrs. Deng is harsh or mean, but that both sides are not at the same level at all. They may be respectful at the beginning, but in two or three years, there will probably be problems. A strong woman and a weak man will not be a good thing in this era.

But among the people you know, there are only a few who match their background and knowledge.

Let's wait for this matter.

"You can also take a concubine." Lu Lingqi looked at Liu Yi with some weirdness: "For the past few months, you have endured a lot of pain for me. I know how kind to you. If your husband wants to, you can go and talk to your sister-in-law of the Deng family."

"Uh..." Liu Yi looked at Lu Lingqi blankly, looked at her body again, and felt a little dry. He reached into the quilt, squeezed and cursed Lu Lingqi with a smile: "This is the first time I have heard a wife take a concubine for her man."

Of course, it is every man’s dream to have a group of wives and concubines, and Liu Yi naturally cannot avoid the common sense. However, when his wife is pregnant, she will not be able to overcome this hurdle in her heart.

"What do you think, husband?" Lu Lingqi looked at Liu Yi with a smile.

"I'll talk about this after you give birth." Liu Yi waved his hand. He had never thought about it. Deng was also a beauty. The marriage system in this era was a monogamous wife and many concubines. If others were willing and their wife did not object, it should be a good thing, but Liu Yi always felt that he couldn't speak out, mainly because he was too familiar with him.

Having already put on the clothes, Liu Yi looked at Lu Lingqi and said, "Madam, don't you go and eat with me?"

"I don't want to dress, and I'm a little tired again. I want to sleep for a while, and my sister-in-law will send it later." Lu Lingqi shook her head.

"This problem~ going out for a walk during the day is good for the body and the fetus." Liu Yi didn't force himself. After straightening his clothes, he kissed his forehead and pushed the door out.

Lu Lingqi looked at Liu Yi's back and smiled a little insanely.

"Sir, the meal is ready." Deng knew that Liu Yi was leaving early today, so he prepared the meal early. In the restaurant, Zhang Fei was already sitting there blatantly and blatantly, preparing for free meals. When he saw Liu Yi, he shouted rudely: "Bo Yuan hurry up, why did it get so late?"

Liu Yi looked at the dark sky outside the window speechlessly. It was also called late. After thanking Deng’s mother, he sat behind his desk and looked at Zhang Fei and said, “I heard from the wife that the third general calls her brother and sister?”

Zhang Fei's originally contemptuous face turned dark in an instant. This matter was so chaotic that he has now settled his name.

Liu Yi did not drag Lu Bu out any further. Cui Zhouping's affairs taught him to be sensible. He could just make some jokes, but he kept holding on, and the jokes turned into awkward laugh.

"General Zhang was also a joke at that time, and he couldn't be taken seriously." Mrs. Deng was very suitable to interject and said, "Speaking of this, Mr. Wen and General Zhang were both famous generals all over the world. In my opinion, such powerful people are enemies, but they will also cherish each other."

Liu Yi looked at Deng's mother with praise. She didn't say it, but she would also directly draw the topic away. She was indeed a good wife and mother. Liu Yi had no idea before, but now Lu Lingqi has pointed out the topic. She thought about it for a while, then shook her head and smiled: "What my sister-in-law said is good."

"Hey." Zhang Fei grabbed a roast chicken and took a bite. Hearing this, he also said with a bit of reminiscence in his eyes: "Speaking of this, although Lu Bu was alive, he didn't think of him, but when it comes to leading troops to fight, there are not many people who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him in the world. He has heard of the name of a flying general when he was chasing the county, and he is angry at his arrogant look."

In fact, Liu Yi felt that later Guan Yu's words of arrogantness were not much worse than Lu Bu, and he was even more than that of Lu Bu. In fact, none of these three people were better than each other, and they all had obvious flaws in their personalities.

Looking at Zhang Fei's table full of meat, Liu Yi shook his head and said, "It's not a good thing to be so greasy in the early morning."

Liu Yi’s breakfast is relatively fixed, with a bowl of porridge with meat, two eggs, a stack of dishes and two noodles, and coarse grain cakes. These days, the noodles are basically coarse grains.

"Hey." Zhang Fei said indifferently: "When I was chasing the county, I was not happy. Later, I fought with my brother in the south and north, but the food was much worse. I could eat more meat when I was in Xuzhou, how could I like you?"

In the end, Zhang Fei couldn't help but feel a little envious. He heard that the craftsmen on Liu Yi could eat meat and vomit. Even when the three brothers occupied Xuzhou and competed with Cao Cao for the Central Plains, they had never been so luxurious.

Of course it is impossible to eat meat until you vomit, but the craftsmen who work with him are really well treated. The meat is bought at half price at the purchase price of Mi Family. Even if you want to save money, you can eat it in the canteen provided by Liu Yi, which is still meaty, but it is not as delicious as outside.

While peeling off the eggshell, Liu Yi looked at Zhang Fei and smiled when he heard this, "After the new city is established, I will propose to my lord that I will build a few more such towns in the territory, so that we can provide our army with enough food and money every year."

Why is Shu Han not as good as Cao Wei?

Although it was a big reason to lose Jingzhou, the more important thing was that the economy was opened up. When Longzhong talked about Yizhou, Zhuge Liang said that the people were prosperous and the country was rich, but later he clearly stated that Yizhou was exhausted and bad. Since Liu Yi chose to become an official, he definitely hoped that Liu Bei could win the world and end the troubled times as soon as possible.

What I can do now is in addition to my own functions, the most important thing is to help you get stuck in two points. One is to protect Jingzhou, and the other is to try to build economy and agriculture. In Liu Yi's view, this is the most important thing.

"This is good, I'll talk to my brother!" Zhang Fei's eyes lit up when he heard this and said to Liu Yi: "Look at the people here, they are all quite strong, they are all military materials!"

Zhang Fei obviously agreed with this kind of thing.
