In the ruined Luoyang City, there is only an exquisite prefect's palace.

As soon as Xu Huang and Wei Ji entered the city, they felt the support of the people for Zhou Yang, so they asked someone to deliver two trucks of goods to the barracks.

When he arrived at the mansion, he saw two stonemasons focusing on creating his statue.

In the hall, the well-behaved Qirou brought them tea.

Zhou Yang hurriedly stood up and supported her, saying, "You should pay more attention to rest!"

Qirou had never been so cared about. After nodding and agreeing, her heart retreated happily.

After seeing her leave, Zhou Yang asked, "What are those two cars?"

"That's... steel!" Wei Ji replied immediately.

"At present, in addition to rebuilding Luoyang and cultivating farmland, the most important thing is urban defense work and strengthening military armed forces." Xu Huang explained from the side.

Zhou Yang pondered for a while before he realized that he had been neglecting military developments.

You should know that Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army is still in Chang'an, and he may use another knife against Luoyang at any time, but he is afraid of the coalition forces in Sishui.

As we all know, no one takes Emperor Xian of Han seriously, and they are all just for their own selfish desires. No one is willing to take the opportunity to fight to Chang'an, just to preserve their strength so that they can compete for territory in the future.

Therefore, we must take advantage of the current defense work in Luoyang.

Zhou Yang asked again: "Then are these caravans..."

Xu Huang glanced at Wei Ji, who wanted to speak but couldn't speak, and felt uncomfortable for him, saying, "These are all good merchants hired by Mr. Wei. If he wanted to start a money shop, three hundred taels of silver was far from enough, so he planned to start other commercial activities first."

Zhou Yang showed admiration in his eyes. It seemed that Wei Ji was indeed a business expert. He really hoped that his throat would recover as soon as possible and he could hear more of his thoughts with his ears.

Xu Huang continued: "Mr. Wei believes that now we can build a small market first, and the remaining silver can be used as capital to trade in various places. After Luoyang is rebuilt to a certain level in the future, a larger-scale trading market will be launched."

Zhou Yang obviously had a coincidence with these actual things, so he grabbed the scalp and said, "With Mr. Wei helping to manage market activities, the future financial income should not be a problem."

"Where, where." Wei Ji quickly said modestly.

"But relying solely on these things can only barely maintain the daily expenses of the prefect's office." Xu Huang said.

Zhou Yang looked in the hall and asked, "There are only three people living in my mansion now, so it shouldn't cost too much!"

Wei Ji was already so anxious that his forehead was sweating. He cleared his throat and said, "It's necessary, a lot of talents..."

Xu Huang added: "That's true. The people are currently in a state of high mood and are busy with things, so there will be no problems in the short term, but in the future there will be many official duties to be handled. Just a barracks, there will be more than ten assistants to help manage them, let alone a city as big as Luoyang."

Zhou Yang's head was so big that he finally understood what they meant.

The Han Dynasty was already on the verge of collapse, and even Emperor Xian of Han was just a puppet of others. The court had to sell officials to make money, so it was impossible to pay salaries to officials from all over the country. Even if there was no money, where did the princes get their troops? Of course, they could only rely on themselves to develop their economy.

However, Dong Zhuo's use of tyranny to control the government was the most direct and fastest way to develop funds, and it could also play a role in suppressing local gentry.

Of course this is not a long-term solution, but for the poor Xiliang army, they had to do this, and once they did it and tasted the sweetness, it would be difficult to stop.

No wonder Liu Bei has been an official for more than 20 years and is still living under others' roofs.

Money and food are indeed very important. If we want to help Cao Cao unify the world, we need to pile up mountains of silver and the ever-inflammable food and grass.

Zhou Yang finally understood that this prefect is extremely difficult to be a good prefect. Not only does it have no money to make, but it also has to make a fortune by himself. It seems that even if you want to be a corrupt official, it is impossible.

Now there is no use for a servant and maid in the prefect's mansion. Su Chen is definitely not a material for this, and he cannot let the pregnant Qirou take care of the housework.

Fortunately, Wei Ji didn't care and said that he could handle these things; Xu Huang was responsible for two cars of steel and started to build weapons and armor.

Zhou Yang knew that he was in urgent need of employment, but the only 300 taels of silver was about to start developing the market, so he did not dare to post notices on recruiting talents.

It turns out that the Three Kingdoms are so different from the game in reality. It is not like sending some people to search. Even if you can't find the savage talents, you can still get some money.

No matter what kind of talented general is, facing the most essential and realistic basic problems, it is impossible to create resources out of thin air.

Zhou Yang suddenly felt upset, so he rode a Red Rabbit Horse and walked around the city.

There is no wine or any place to enjoy in Luoyang City at present, and there are no brothels. When you think of brothels, you think of Yun'er, who is far away in peace, and you don't know how you are now.

Sometimes I really want to rush to An Ding, so I just take her over.

The Red Rabbit Horse ran faster and faster, crossing the woods, jumping through rivers, and finally arrived at the legendary Luoshui shore.

However, Luoshui was not as beautiful as expected, perhaps because there was no moving woman on the other side.

Zhou Yang closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and recited the voice of Zhen Ji when he used to play the Three Kingdoms Killing: "It seems like - like the light clouds covering the moon, and the floating sky - like the flowing wind returning to the snow."

"What a beautiful poem!" A familiar voice came from behind. Could it be the God of Luo?

Zhou Yang opened his eyes and looked back, unable to help but take a breath of cold air.

Cao Lin was wearing a pink outfit and slowly walked over on a white horse and asked, "Do you miss someone?"

Zhou Yang originally planned to send someone to Xuchang to pick up Cao Lin, but when he thought about dealing with this little girl's movie, he felt a headache. Now he really appeared in front of him and smiled bitterly: "How did you keep up?"

Cao Lin gently raised her hand, and Tianxiang falcon looked down, and closed her wings and landed on her shoulder.

Zhou Yang suddenly realized in his heart and asked, "When did he come?"

Cao Lin's eyes suddenly turned red in her naive big eyes, and tears came as soon as she said that, but she didn't answer.

Zhou Yang had been overwhelmed by a lot of problems, and now a little guy who made him even bigger was caught off guard for a while, so he had to roll off his horse helplessly and coaxed: "Come on, hug."

This trick really works against Cao Lin. Although she was crying, she threw herself into his arms with a smile and said with a crying voice: "It's clear that she wants to come to find someone, but she didn't come to find someone."

Zhou Yang didn't know how to An Wei, so he could only tell the current situation in Luoyang as the truth, hoping that the other party could understand his difficulties.

"Then you should have called someone to come sooner." Cao Lin rebuked.

"Why?" Zhou Yang asked.

"Aren't you told me to pay attention to someone named Xun Yu?" Cao Lin broke free from his arms and said.

"Xun Yu! Have you found him?" Zhou Yang looked at the little girl in disbelief. If he could get help from this person at this time, it would be like a timely help.

Although Cao Lin didn't know what Xun Yu had, he seemed to attach great importance to it, and told him proudly before she left Luoyang, Xun Yu was also appointed as the magistrate in the court, that is, to help the Shao Emperor take charge of pens, ink, paper and other items. It was not until Dong Zhuo abolished the Shao Emperor and was rampant that Xun Yu abandoned his post and returned home and walked with Cao Lin.

Zhou Yangqi said: "How did you meet?"

Cao Lin said: "At that time, Sima Xunshuang had a very good relationship with Uncle Yuan and recommended Xun Yu to him many times, so I often saw this person at Uncle Yuan's mansion."

Then he continued to talk about when he left Beijing that day. Xun Yu originally planned to move his clan members to Jizhou, but on the way back to his hometown with Cao Lin, he kept hearing her mention Zhou Yang's money house plan.

Later, the assassination of Dong was famous, and Dong Zhuo burned Luoyang, and Zhou Yang became the new prefect of Luoyang. The whole process of being supported by the people made Xun Yu finally give up going north to surrender to Yuan Shao, and instead followed Cao Lin to Luoyang.

Zhou Yang asked anxiously: "Where is Xun Yu now?"

Cao Lin didn't expect that the two men who had never been masked seemed to be more important than her, and couldn't help but feel jealous: "Why don't you ask how they spent that time in Xuchang!"

Zhou Yang suppressed his excitement and asked calmly: "Then how did you spend it?"

Cao Lin pouted and smiled and said, "I will tell you slowly in the future, go find Xun Yu! As soon as he arrived in Luoyang, he couldn't wait to run to the south of Luoshui. He followed him and realized that you were here."

After Zhou Yang happily kissed her in pain, he said softly: "You go to the prefect's house to wait for me first."

After saying that, he turned over and rode on the Red Rabbit Horse, rushed towards the south, and ran wildly along the Luoshui River.

After walking for a few miles, there was indeed a man squatting alone on the Luoshui shore, as if he was studying something. Hearing the sound of horse hooves, he turned his head to take a look.

Seeing that he was beautiful and beautiful, Zhou Yang immediately remembered allusions about Xun Yu. History records that he was fond of incense. There was an ancient idiom "Pan Lang" describing Pan An as loved by women. In the Three Kingdoms period, there was also a "Liu Xiang Xun Ling" calling him a beautiful man.

So the handsome man in front of him must be Xun Yu.

Zhou Yang turned over and dismounted and bowed, saying, "Sir, is it Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo?"

The man looked him up and down, with admiration in his eyes, and asked calmly: "Premier Zhou?"

Zhou Yang finally met this Wang Zuozhi talent. He was so moved that he almost thanked God. In addition, he was eager to ask for talent. He immediately bowed his fist and said, "Mr. Xun's arrival has made me feel extremely confident in rebuilding Luoyang. I hope Mr. helps me."

Although Xun Yu was a little famous at this time, he had not yet reached such a level of attention. He looked surprised when he heard this and said in surprise: "What kind of virtue can you do to make the prefect Zhou pay so much attention?"

Zhou Yang also felt a little abrupt, and looked around a little embarrassedly, not knowing how to answer for a while.
