Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 144: Ignore

For the Chang'an officials, although Wang Yun's defeat and Lu Bu's power made them uncomfortable, it was not unacceptable.

After all, Dong Zhuo didn't get any advantage in their hands. Your Lu Bu's foundation in this pass is not as good as Dong Zhuo, can you be better than Dong Zhuo?

Everyone was waiting, waiting for Lu Bu to be like Dong Zhuo in the past. After gaining power, he immediately summoned all the officials to go to the palace to show off his power to the world. In fact, not only Dong Zhuo, but Wang Yun followed the same process.

Throughout the ages, most people have done this after they first gained power. Lu Bu, who has never seen anything in the world, certainly cannot escape this vulgar law.

Everyone is waiting, waiting to see Lu Bu flaunt his power like a jumping clown in the court, and then disappear as quickly as Dong Zhuo.

This wait is half a month.

Lv Bu did not flaunt his power as they thought. During these half a month, there was not even a court meeting. Although Lv Bu went to the palace every day, no one came to inform the morning court.

The Xiliang army is looking for someone to avenge. It is impossible for Wang Yun and Huangfusong to be the only ones unlucky for Dong Zhuo's death. The city of Chang'an is full of chaos, but this time the brutal Xiliang army is quite restrained. There are teams of patrols in the city Although the soldiers are also from the Xiliang Army, they are well-trained, but if someone dares to rape and plunder for no reason, these patrolling soldiers will not hesitate to capture and execute them.

It is precisely because of this that although tens of thousands of heads have been killed in Chang'an City in the past half month, the people of Chang'an City have not been affected, and the hearts of the people have gradually stabilized.

Because everyone found that most of the people who were killed this time were dignitaries and nobles, and it didn't seem to have anything to do with them.

The alternation of power is usually accompanied by bloodshed, but it is rare to kill as ruthlessly as this time. Half of the families in Chang'an City were killed. However, it is chilling that Lu Bu didn't seem to care about this at all during this time. As long as the people are not moved, other people can kill them however they want!

What is Lu Bu doing?

In fact, Lu Bu is very busy, but what he is busy with is different from others. He is sharing benefits. This time, without all the officials in the court, the court can run smoothly, thanks to the scholars in Xiliang.

Therefore, the family property (mainly land property) of these slaughtered officials was handed over to these families by Lu Bu in the form of rewards, the Jiang family, the Zhao family, and the Yin family.

The things in this world cannot be separated from a word of profit. Lu Bu distributed these fields to these families, so that they have the strength to compete with those big families in terms of property.

As for the background, with property, as long as it is not too violent, a new family will become after a few generations. It does not mean that money equals the background, but that after having money, it can provide a good learning environment for future generations, such as Books, famous teachers, etc.

In this way, the probability of talent will be higher.

Why is Jingzhao so close to Xiliang, but the gap between scholars is so big? Guanzhong seems to be a big family, but the biggest family in Xiliang came to Guanzhong, at most, they just got out of the poor family?

To put it bluntly, it is wealth, a very vulgar answer, but it is the answer to most problems in the world. There are 800 miles of fertile soil in Guanzhong, and Xiliang actually has resources, but it is difficult to realize them. The wealth of the Silk Road in Xiliang is just a pass. It's just travel expenses, and it can't afford to support the entire Xiliang gentry group.

Therefore, in everyone's perception, the Xiliang gentry is a low-end feeling. Even though there are actually many talents here, such as Liangzhou Sanming, these are the only ones that can be on the table.

Lu Bu’s background is not good, but it’s not much worse than those families in Xiliang. The most important thing is that Lu Bu gave them the possibility to rise up. Although the tax has changed, for the Xiliang gentry, they still Earned, and a lot of money.

The other half of the land was resettled in the name of the imperial court. Lu Bu was really busy during this time, and he had to deal with the mess left by Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun as soon as possible, otherwise Guanzhong might really turn into a hell on earth.

Lu Bu rewarded them with the property confiscated by the Xiliang army, but only food and grass, and Lu Bu asked to hand it over. He wanted to use work for relief, and he wanted to resettle the refugees.

In addition, since the end of last year, there has been continuous rain and snow in Guanzhong, which has caused many embankments to burst. This has to be resolved. This year is indeed a disaster year, but it doesn't matter. If you can't break it, you can't stand it. Lu Bu has now grasped the three powers of military, government and finance in Xiliang. The talent in hand is only Guan Zhong, although it is not enough, but it is enough to deal with the current situation in a short time.

Many people find that a large number of unfamiliar faces appear in the vacancies of official positions. These people are straightforward and aggressive, and they are efficient. Most importantly, the appointment of these people does not seem to follow the normal process.

The first thing Lu Bu has done since taking power is not to show off his authority, but to do things and sort out people's livelihood! ?

This is definitely news for scholars. After a poor boy suddenly grasped the great power, he was not inflated but pragmatic.

In the past, it would be surprising, but now, the officials and gentry in Chang'an who have reacted can no longer laugh, because Lu Bu directly promoted the land tax without their consent. The hands-on kind of land tax.

How much does this hurt the scholars? In fact, it's not that big. If you pay taxes honestly, the income from the land in the hands of scholars is probably 10 to 20% less than in previous years.

But human nature is selfish. In the past, the imperial court begged them. They gave alms to the imperial court to gain a good reputation. Now the imperial court takes it with confidence. Naturally, no one wanted this, and more importantly, Lu Bu had no intention of discussing it with them from the beginning, so he moved directly.

Disaster relief, water control, and plague control, especially the last one. Plague is an unsolvable thing for the big man, and there has been no effective means of governance. However, Lu Bu actually summoned famous doctors from all over the world, and then gathered the plague victims to prevent them from being let go. run around.

Those who can be cured are cured, and the corpses that cannot be cured are burned in a centralized manner. If the family members are willing to pay, they will be buried in the ground. In short, the corpses cannot be exposed to the wilderness.

Half a month later, the plague really stopped spreading, and Lu Bu's reputation among the people also increased rapidly.

No one cares that Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan before, that has nothing to do with them, now that Lu Bu saved tens of thousands of people, this is something that is closely related to everyone, so the people are grateful to Lu Bu.

People's hearts were taken away by Lu Bu without anyone knowing, and the reputation he gained by using the food that was raided and destroyed to help the victims, many people were dissatisfied with Lu Bu's behavior of killing one group of people to save another group of people. Are you not ashamed to hear it?

Lu Bu didn't know what other people thought. He wasn't very ashamed, maybe he lacked empathy. Lu Bu just felt relieved, especially since the environment in Guanzhong was getting better and better.

"Master!" Hua Xiong's address to Lv Bu has changed now, Dong Zhuo's revenge has been avenged, Hua Xiong has no regrets, he has been with Lv Bu for a long time, now Dong Zhuo's avenge is also avenged by Lv Bu, he is naturally willing to serve Lv Bu as the master .

"What's the matter?" Lu Bu handed the signed dossier to Jiang Xu, only then did he have time to take a look at Hua Xiong.

"A eunuch brought a woman over to see the lord, and he said she belonged to the lord." Hua Xiong pointed to the door and said.

"Please!" Lu Bu rubbed his temples. If he didn't have the experience of being an emperor, he really wouldn't be able to deal with the current mess in Guanzhong so quickly.

Yang Li brought Diao Chan in, saluted Lu Bu, "See Marquis Wen."

"You don't need to be too polite, you and I are old acquaintances, this time we can easily invade Chang'an, thanks to Brother Yang." Lu Bu got up and smiled.

"I don't dare, Li Jue, Guo Si and Wang Yun were separated this time. Apart from the fact that they didn't believe it, it was also thanks to Diao Chan. The old slave was just helping to deliver the news. Diao Chan is the real hero." Yang Li smiled. the way.

Lu Bu looked at Diao Chan, nodded and said, "That's right, Diao Chan, now that the palace has been destroyed, you have regained your freedom. You have contributed a lot this time. There are two rewards, and you can choose one."

"Diao Chan doesn't need a reward, Diao Chan only wishes..." Diao Chan looked up, looking at what Lu Bu wanted to say, but was stopped by Lu Bu.

"Listen to me first." Lu Bu's voice was flat, but undeniably domineering.

Diao Chan bowed her head, a little aggrieved.

"First, I have sent people to look for your family members, but I have not been able to find them. I will give you a sum of money, food, and land. In this pass, as long as I am here, no one will provoke you. These are enough for you to live comfortably. , a rich life.”

Diao Chan didn't answer, just lowered his head.

"Secondly, a certain time in Situ's mansion that day, I was quite attracted to you. If you want, I would like to accept you formally, but only as a concubine!"

There is also a difference between concubines and concubines. Some concubines only need to give enough money and bring them back directly. This kind of concubine is basically equivalent to prostitution, but it can also follow the procedure, just like Wang Yi. Although he does not have the title of wife, but It also has enough status at home.

For Lu Bu, he accepts what he likes, and if he doesn’t want to, he won’t force it. As for talking about love, this kind of thing is not suitable in today’s world, and Lu Bu doesn’t have that much time, but for Diaochan, Lu Bu has a special feeling. Therefore, even if it is the first reward, Diao Chan is still under Lu Bu's control.

"General Meng will not give up, and Diao Chan is willing to serve the general." Diao Chan did not hesitate this time. Although he did not meet many times, Lu Bu did have many special traits that attract women, such as toughness, handsomeness, principles, etc., which will make people unable to help Give birth to an unattainable sense of admiration, these specialties are like poison to women.

Hua Xiong looked at this scene dumbfounded: Is it so straightforward? The most important thing is that the woman also agreed! How about I try it too?

"Congratulations to Marquis Wen for a beautiful woman." After all, Yang Li was used to seeing the world, and was not as surprised as Hua Xiong, so he quickly realized and congratulated Lu Bu.

"Diao Chan doesn't have a family. I'm busy with business. I still need brother Yang's help with Diao Chan's affairs." Lu Bu got up and smiled at Yang Li.

"Naturally, I'm honored, slave." Yang Li immediately agreed. This is a good thing. Now that Lv Bu is in power, how many people want to curry favor with Lv Bu and have nowhere to go.

"By the way, Marquis Wen, there is one more thing that needs to be told to Marquis Wen." After Yang Li took over the task, he looked at Lu Bu and said.

"Oh?" Lu Bu looked at Yang Li and said, "Please tell me."

"In the past few days, courtiers have been going to His Majesty's place, wanting to go to the court to discuss matters. The servants are also here according to His Majesty's edict, to see what Marquis Wen means?" Yang Li looked at Lu Bu carefully.

The court officials can no longer sit still...
