Chapter 188: The beginning and the end

"You mean, I want to live here too? One year?" Zhang Fei looked at the ground where a big pit had been dug in front of him, then looked at Liu Yi, and was a little doubtful if he had heard it wrong. According to his original plan, he came to be lazy.

"Conservative estimate." Liu Yi nodded and said naturally. He had confidence before, but after redesigning and financial resources, whether it can be completed in a year is not sure now, and it depends on the financial situation.

"Why are you doing?" Liu Yi grabbed Zhang Fei who was turning around and was about to leave, and frowned.

"Go back to the police and train troops." Zhang Fei tried to break away with his head, but found that Liu Yi's hand was very strong and he couldn't even get it away at once.

"The second general, Shuzhi, Hansheng, Wenchang, Tanzhi, and Feng Gongzi are all there. Now the emperor's tent is not short of military generals." Liu Yi said with a smile.

"Your sister-in-law seems to be pregnant, I want to go and have a look." Zhang Fei said.

"I just took it together, and I haven't visited you for a long time. The environment here is more suitable for baby care, and I have also prepared many clinics."

“The dogs at home are unattended.”

"Just pick it up together."

"My horse..."

"Come with us together." Liu Yi did not let go, but just smiled.

Zhang Fei turned around and looked at Liu Yi seriously and said, "Boyuan, tell you the truth. I have never told my brother this time, so I must go back as soon as possible."

"I have ordered someone to send a letter. The emperor will soon know that you are here." Liu Yi smiled. Although Liu Bei was a turf team, the military discipline was not that loose. If Liu Bei had nodded, how could Zhang Fei come here?

Seeing Zhang Fei sitting aside like a deflated ball, Liu Yi smiled and shook his head. In fact, he knew that Liu Bei was still a little worried about this. After all, Liu Yi said that Xincheng would become a major center of Liu Bei's group in the future and could drive the development of Jingnan.

This kind of thing is expected, but if Liu Yi says this, Liu Bei believes it. Not to mention that the fishing town has been making money these days. Even if Liu Bei believes in Liu Yi, now with more and more talents under Liu Bei, there must be someone secretly jealous and want to make trouble. Liu Bei sent Zhang Fei here. Supervision is one reason, but the bigger reason is probably to shock people.

This was Liu Bei's kindness, Zhang Fei didn't know, but Liu Yi could figure it out, so he wouldn't let Zhang Fei leave like this.

The new city is more than 30 miles away from the fishing town, and it takes an hour to arrive by carriage. It takes a lot of time just to go back and forth every day, so Liu Yi decided to keep Zhang Fei here to supervise, and he came here every day to distribute coins.

Zhang Fei felt like he was on a pirate ship. No wonder Kong Ming smiled so strangely when he was about to come. It turned out that he was waiting here.

I felt like I was being plotted, and Zhang Fei's face was naturally not very good. The digging project had already begun. Liu Yi had to participate in the entire process of the foundation construction in the early stage. Other things did not meet the standards and could be modified or demolished or rebuilt afterwards. But if there was a mistake in the foundation, then there was a problem and it could not be demolished and rebuilt the entire city, right?

Although Zhang Fei was reckless, he was not really stupid. When he recalled Zhuge Liang's meaningful smile when he left, he knew that even if he didn't mention it, he would probably think of other ways. Think about this and that during this period, the elder brother arranged things for this and that, but let him be a free agent... It was terrifying to think about it carefully!

Zhang Fei, who had figured out the key point at this moment, was left to curse. He looked at Liu Yi depressedly and said, "They want me to come over, just say that, why bother to do this?"

"You probably can't just say it." Liu Yi sighed, and saw that Zhang Fei stopped running and no longer tried to catch him. He looked at the civilians who began to dig the foundation and transport the soil in the distance and smiled bitterly: "After all, not only did he ask for a lot of money from the emperor's uncle, but this fishing town has now become famous, and it is impossible to say that no one is jealous of anyone, but now that Jingzhou is at its peak, the emperor's uncle also needs to stabilize the hearts of the people. Send you here to tell them that this is the emperor's uncle's property and let those people not be tempted."

"What a fuck..." Zhang Fei didn't know what to say. Such a thing was a bit annoying for him.

"This is also a good thing." Liu Yi smiled when he saw Zhang Fei being bored.

"What a good thing?" Zhang Fei glared at Liu Yi. He was holding on to Liu Yi, but Liu Yi looked like he was a god-like person?

"If a small force has a strong leader, there will be no such factional dispute. Now it appears, it means that the emperor's uncle has become a powerful force." Liu Yi said with a smile.

When Liu Bei's subordinates were only concerned about Zhang Jianyong, there would be no such thing. It was not so much a force, but a small team. Everyone performed their own duties and cooperated with each other. In addition, Liu Bei's high wrists, this kind of problem naturally would not occur.

But now, Liu Bei has taken over the five counties of Jingzhou, and has the first old men to follow him, as well as the people he has collected over the years, and the locals in Jingzhou. Although it is still a whole, there are small groups in this whole. In the past, when there were few people, it was so satisfying people's hearts, but now there are more people and small groups, so it is no longer a simple way to solve the problem with favors. At this time, what Liu Bei has to do is to distribute profits, and also convince everyone. This is a great question. Whether Liu Bei can hold on is the time to teach Liu Bei's political ability.

Politics is always dirty, Zhang Fei doesn't understand, but this is something that must be faced. No matter which small group grows, it must face this hurdle.

Yuan Shao just couldn't do this, so no matter how powerful he was, he would be messy. Even if he was undefeated to Cao Cao and allowed him to occupy the Central Plains, he might not have the Battle of Red Cliffs, and Yuan Shao would be able to start chaos first.

Historically, although Liu Bei had shortcomings, he still had enough control.

"Hey, this was your business, but now you want you to persuade me?" Zhang Fei glared at Liu Yi and said angrily.

"So, this is not the third general, I feel at ease," Liu Yi said with a smile.

"What should I do now?" Zhang Fei said with a fist.

"Build some sheds that allow workers to live temporarily." Liu Yi rolled up his sleeves and said, "It is impossible for everyone to travel thirty miles back every day. There must be a temporary place to live here, and it will eventually be demolished. Naturally, things will not be built too well. With Liu Yi's current methods, even the straw sheds and more than thirty-year-olds to prevent cold, comfortable and restore energy can make people live in a villa.

Of course, although the same bonus is the basis, it is impossible to live in a straw hut more comfortable than the fishing town.

...

"Brother Zifang, what is Liu Yi's origin? The emperor's uncle sent the three generals to guard?" Jiangling, with the stability of the political situation in Jingzhou, as an important town in Nanjun, as well as the main transit station for Liu Bei's business and to travel north, Jiangling has now returned to its former prosperity, even more than before. As the new prefect of Jiangling, Mi Fang naturally has more people come to visit every day, including many famous scholars in Jingxiang. However, in recent days, Mi Fang unexpectedly discovered that more people came to ask about Liu Yi.

"This..." Mi Fang shook his head and said, "Mr. Bo Yuan and his lord have had a long time ago, but Fang and Mr. Bo Yuan have not had much relationship. However, my brother has a lot of contact with Mr. Bo Yuan, so why not ask my brother?"

He didn't have a deep friendship with Liu Yi. When Liu Yi was in Xiakou, Mi Fang was ordered to be with Liu Qi. In the core of Liu Bei Group, there were only those who had a strong relationship with Liu Yi. As a wealthy family, Mi Fang naturally understood why these people were asking about Liu Yi. The profits of the fishing village over the past few months were that even the Mi family, as partners, had made a lot of money. Mi Fang was a little jealous, let alone others.

But I can't figure out Liu Bei's attitude, and now Zhang Fei has run to the fishing town. Before he is clear, Mi Fang dares not speak casually. Even if he is not familiar with Liu Yi, his sister is now able to be properly supported, and it is still due to Liu Yi's rescue. In addition, Mi Zhu and Liu Yi are quite friendly and reasonable, so he cannot destroy Liu Yi's platform behind his back.

What's more, the Mi family has grown a lot with Liu Yi's wind. Why did the scholars of Jingxiang come to him to show their gratitude not just because he is the prefect of Nanjun.

After all, he was said to be the prefect, but Liu Bei's capital was also within the territory of Nanjun.

The famous scholar on the opposite side just laughed and exposed the topic. After talking about Jiangling’s current prosperity with Mi Fang, and then got up and said goodbye and left.

Seeing the other party leaving, Mi Fang stood up and asked someone to block the guests for him. Today, he disappeared and went straight to the back hall.

"Brother, everyone from the Ma family, Chen family, and Zhang family have come to ask. My Mi family has just gained a foothold in Jingxiang. These gentry are not easy to offend." Mi Fang looked at Mi Zhu who was drinking tea and said with a wry smile.

The Mi family's connections are all in Xuzhou. Although they have rebuilt their connections and business in Jingzhou in recent years, they are far inferior to those in the past. In addition, the wealthy businessmen in Jingzhou are also quite xenophobic. Now they have finally improved a little. It would not be a good thing to be dirty with these kindnesses.

"It's not just you and me?" Mi Zhu shook his head and smiled, "Besides, although it's related to family business, Bo Yuan has kindness to my Mi family. Don't forget my father's past teachings."

"If you want to establish a career, start a person first?" Mi Fang looked at Mi Zhu and smiled bitterly: "I didn't say I wanted to harm Liu Yi, just..."

"It's good if you remember this. I can't control the others, but Bo Yuan cannot fall into danger because of my Mi family. This is righteousness and the foundation of my Mi family! Now we are also scholars, and we should have the virtues of scholars!" Mi Zhu's expression became a little harsh in the end.

"Don't worry, brother, please follow your teachings." Mi Fang sighed and bowed to Mi Zhu, but he felt a little dissatisfied.

"I will go to the police to meet my lord tomorrow. I will ask my brother for the family matters."

"Don't worry, brother."
