Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

"My lord, let the general stay in Xiliang?" Ma Teng looked at Lu Bu in surprise. From the moment he surrendered to Lu Bu, he was ready to give up Xiliang completely.

"That's right. General Ma has been operating here for many years. No one knows how to govern better than General Ma. I can feel more at ease if General Ma stays here." Lu Bu nodded affirmatively. Of course, apart from Ma Teng, Lu Bu, a family member of the Ma family, was to be taken away. Unconditional loyalty does not exist, but this condition is not necessarily coercion by family members, but it is undoubtedly the easiest and most effective one to hold family members in your hands.

"In addition, Wen Yuan will stay and guard together, and General Ma can also teach him." Lu Bu pointed to Zhang Liaodao who was beside him. This is Lu Bu's only confidant besides Gao Shun who can take care of himself. Zhang Liao will guard here and wait for the opportunity to take It is also Lu Bu's intention to go down the entire four counties in Hexi.

"With General Wenyuan here, the last general will feel more at ease." Ma Teng nodded to Zhang Liao. Ma Teng had seen Zhang Liao's abilities before, from fighting Zhang Liao in Yuzhong to seizing Tanyin , The military talent and ability displayed by Zhang Liao are rare in the world.

After discussing some details, Ma Teng left knowingly.

"Wenyuan, although the four counties of Xihe are remote, it is very important for us to connect to the Silk Road, and we can't find other suitable people right now. I can only rest assured that you are here temporarily, so during this time It will be hard for Wen Yuan to guard this place for me." After Ma Teng left, Lu Bu took Zhang Liao out to relax, and stayed in the government office all day, a little bored.

"My lord, don't say that, you will eventually understand what your lord is worried about." Zhang Liao nodded.

"Dunhuang, Jiuquan, and Zhangye seem to be exhausted, but these three counties are firstly the gateway to the Western Regions for my great man, and secondly, they are also the starting point of the Silk Road. The exchanges between the countries of the Western Regions must pass through here, take them down!" Lv Bu Looking at Zhang Liao said.

"Here!" Zhang Liao nodded knowingly.

As for the four counties in Hexi, Zhang Liao had also heard from Lu Bu several times that this would be one of Lu Bu's future sources of income, and it was a very important source of income, which was why Lu Bu would put Zhang Liao here.

The two chatted for a while about how to manage the four counties, Zhang Liao suddenly laughed and said, "My lord, you know that Wang Ling asked the last general to talk to the lord, and wanted to ask the lord to accept his younger sister."

"Oh?" Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao with some surprise, "Why does Wen Yuan care about these things?"

"It's not that the general wants to take care of this, but the general also thinks that the lord should take a concubine." Zhang Liao hesitated, and said to Lu Bu: "The lord's family affairs, the general didn't want to talk too much, but Xiliang is now under the lord's concubine. In the bag, the Lord already has a foundation, and the Longxi gentry is willing to accept the Lord and serve him, which is a good thing, but there is one point, if it cannot be resolved, it may cause instability in people's hearts."

Lv Bu was silent. He knew what Zhang Liao was talking about. If Lv Bu had no heirs, no matter how powerful he was, the internal hearts would be unstable, just like Dong Zhuo today. People have joined forces to resist, but they have been unable to break the situation. In fact, there are many factions inside.

Although Lu Bu had a daughter, the daughter obviously couldn't inherit Lu Bu's inheritance, and the Yan family could no longer have children after Lingqi was born. The things in Lv Bu's pocket already have some foundations. At this time, if Lv Bu does not have an heir, there will be many problems in the future. This is why Zhang Liao accepted Wang Ling's entrustment to talk about Xiang Xiang.

"Wang Ling?" Lu Bu thought of the heroic girl in Shouyang City that day, named Wang Yi. Lu Bu naturally felt that the girl had a good impression of him, but after Wang Ling's performance, Lu Bu couldn't help it. After thinking about it again, now that he suddenly asked Zhang Liao to talk about it, Lu Bu was a little puzzled: "Isn't he unwilling?"

"It is said that after his younger sister met the lord, she yearned day and night without thinking about food and drink. After Wang Ling returned, seeing his younger sister's appearance, he struggled with the boss's heart, and finally decided to invite the future to speak. His sister." Zhang Liao explained with a smile.

Just met once and don't think about eating or drinking?

Lu Bu couldn't believe it. He groped for his face and looked at Zhang Liao beside him. Could it be that the life simulator can change faces and make him more handsome unconsciously?

"Since ancient times, a beautiful woman deserves to be a hero. The lord rescued her in a crisis, so it's not difficult to understand why she would yearn for the lord. Besides, that woman is also at the age of Huaichun. If she meets the lord, it's inevitable that she won't be tempted." Zhang Liao saw Lu Bu. Like this, he smiled.

"How old are you, what kind of hero is he?" Lu Bu shook his head and smiled.

How old?

Zhang Liao looked at Lu Bu suspiciously, and suddenly realized that in terms of age, Lu Bu was indeed much older than Wang Yi. He smiled and said, "My lord, don't worry, at my lord's age, it is not too much for me to marry a daughter from the Wang family."

"After all, this matter is an internal matter of the family. I will discuss it with your sister-in-law in a letter." Lu Bu nodded. I have always avoided mentioning similar things around her, so as not to make her feel unhappy, but as Zhang Liao said, up to now, whether there is an heir is very important to Lu Bu.

Zhang Liao nodded. He was aware of the relationship between Lu Bu and Yan Shi, but based on Zhang Liao's understanding of Yan Shi, she would not stop this kind of thing. Therefore, it is a routine matter for Lu Bu to write a letter to inquire about this matter. .

"Also, although the Wang family is from a poor family, they are considered scholars after all. Are you really willing to let their sister come to be my concubine?" Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao and asked a question he was more concerned about.

"It's hard to say about this last general, but my lord is now considered the master of one party. Although I am a concubine for my lord, she will also be my wife in the future. Besides, since Wang Ling has already spoken, why should my lord bother with this?" Zhang Liao was stunned for a moment. laughed.

Lu Bu nodded and didn't say any more. This matter was indeed urgently needed for him. After saying goodbye to Zhang Liao, he wrote a letter and sent it to Xinfeng.

In the days that followed, Lu Bu began to sort out the commercial roads in the Western Regions. According to Ma Teng, porcelain and silk were the most bought items in the Western Regions. In many cases, silk and even most cloth can be directly used as coins, so it is not surprising that silk is popular in the Western Regions.

The real embarrassment is that there is not enough silk. According to Ma Teng, there are many Hu merchants from the Western Regions who come to buy silk every year, but the amount of silk they can get is not much, even Han Sui. Therefore, the price of silk resold to Hu merchants in the Western Regions was more than ten times the value of the goods in the Central Plains.

A piece of silk can be exchanged for two horses or three cows. It is very suitable for Lu Bu to be in charge of this road now. Jingzhao’s silk cloth is all in his hands. Lu Bu is going to invite some porcelain craftsmen from all over the world to come to Xiliang , so that porcelain can also be sold at a good price here. This source of income is in his hands. At the same time, Tianshui and Longxi families will also undertake some business. Lu Bu can let go of these businesses and hand them over to these families, but the profits Lu Bu will take half.

Naturally, he couldn't talk about these things with his subordinates who had just joined and had longings for making contributions in their hearts.

Benefits can be delegated, this is the first profit Lu Bu brought to these families who followed him, and it is long-term.

Fifty percent is naturally extremely high. Although everyone is excited, they are somewhat dissatisfied with this percentage, especially Lu Bu who does nothing and just enjoys the benefits. This is really unacceptable.

"I know why everyone is worried, and think that Bu Na's 50% is too much?" Lu Bu looked at the expressions of the crowd, knew what they were thinking, and shook his head, "But you have thought about it, why didn't these Hu merchants from the Western Regions look for them in the past?" Everyone?"

this……

Everyone looked at each other when they heard the words. This was naturally because Han Sui never thought of cooperating with them. After all, the Longxi gentry and Tianshui gentry were small families in the Central Plains. Looking down on them, thinking about it clearly, Lu Bu seems to be able to accept such a high commission, but it's just a little.

"Besides, Bu is going to take the lead, and each family will form a caravan. If we can sell our goods to those countries in the Western Regions, will it be more profitable? Bu here is your backing. What grievances, I will be punished even though I am far away! Ten coins pay one tax and a hundred coins pay fifty coins. If you still choose to pay the former, then there is nothing to say, but in the future, the Western Regions This matter has nothing to do with you." Lu Bu said and looked at the crowd: "What do you think?"

"Don't get angry, Junhou. We don't mean that. The children of our clan are all obeying orders under the tent of Junhou. Naturally, we support Junhou very much." Jiang Yuan quickly apologized, Lu Bu is really serious Bringing them a source of wealth, if Lu Bu really let go of it and find others to cooperate, it will not be easy for them, the Longxi gentry, to find such a force willing to cooperate with them.

"You guys have done a great job in pacifying Xiliang this time, but please understand that if there is no such rule, Xiliang will not be stable in the future. Besides, you don't want to just be Xiliang gentry forever?" Lu Bu looked at everyone laughed.

What does this mean?

Everyone looked at each other, silently speaking in tacit agreement, Lu Bu will definitely fight Xiliang in the future, but these gentry clans can only be regarded as low-ranking people in the world, if one day Lu Bu gains power, then those who were the first to help Lu Bu will not be able to get out of Xiliang It's not an accident. The most important thing is that looking at Lu Bu's performance during this period, he is indeed worthy of understanding.

"The Zhao family is willing to obey the arrangement of the lord!"

As the Patriarch of the Zhao family stood up to express his opinion, the other families stood up and saluted Lv Bu sooner or later, expressing their willingness to accept Lv Bu's commission.

This is also the reason why Lu Bu avoided those famous scholars and scholars, and chose to come to Xiliang first to subdue these Xiliang gentry. Their needs are easier to meet and easy to control. When Lu Bu can indeed bring them enough and long-term benefits, these families Naturally, they would choose to bet on Lu Bu. With the support of these families, those who joined Lu Bu's command, such as Zhao Ang, Jiang Xu, Yang Fu and others, called Lu Bu's lord, more real and reliable.
