"Lord, something happened." Early in the morning, Lu Bu, who had not slept for another night, sat in the yamen office and studied with Taoist Mu Yun to use what materials to replace the existing array materials, but saw Chen Gong hurried in.

"What's the matter?" Lu Bu put down the crushed jade chips in his hand. In the past two days, he and Taoist Mu Yun found that after crushing the jade and dividing it into pieces and mixing it with other iron stones, he could have some of the magic jade abilities. Moreover, the ratio of this ratio is different and the effect is also different. Now he is studying the best ratio.

"Where the Cao army was stationed outside the city, the fields that were ripe in the past ten days. Today, the crops in this field suddenly withered overnight, and the land became sand and it was difficult to plant any more." Chen Gong said in a deep voice.

Xuzhou is located on the shore of the East China Sea, with many Danshui rivers such as Huai River and Si Shui River. According to normal logic, the climate here is mild and the water and soil are abundant. As long as you pay attention to the rest of the fields, it is almost impossible for the land to be desertified.

But unfortunately, he is ignorant of logic in this world, or rather, normal basic logic may not work here, because it has higher logic, which is the system that Lu Bu is still exploring now.

"What's strange about this?" Taoist Mu Yun controlled ten groups of true fire to refine materials, and said casually after hearing this: "It is obvious that someone uses magic to activate it. Although it can quickly plant rice in that piece of land in the short term, it is equivalent to overdrawing the land's energy. Now he can only wait for him to slowly cultivate and restore it."

"Immortal, I don't know how long it will take to recover. That land is mostly cultivated land for the people in this area. If it is abandoned, at least nearly a thousand people will have no land to plant!" Chen Gong frowned.

Now, after winning, Lu Bu did not become a military force, so he immediately recruited troops to fight all directions and chose to restore people's livelihood. This cannot be said to be bad, because although the Xuzhou family nominally endowed Lu Bu, they were unwilling to pay more taxes in terms of behavior. You should know that the current taxes are based on the head or households. Theoretically, the tax paid by a large family and a farmer are the same.

However, most of the noble families under the rule of the princes would actively support some food to the local princes in exchange for the protection of the princes. There are also such noble families in Xuzhou today, but not many. The rich merchants were willing to support Lu Bu in terms of financial resources. However, in this era of war, many transactions were made with grain, so the rich merchants were useful, but in terms of land resources, they could not keep up with a fraction of the noble families. This is also an important reason why Lu Bu wanted to win over the noble families. He could not force him.

"You have to pay back the money and goods owed to others. If you owe heaven and earth, don't you have to pay back?" Taoist Mu Yun shook his head and said, "How much benefits you have got from here, then how much debt you have to pay back. People's debts may be able to hide, but you must pay back the debts owed to heaven and earth."

"But this is not what I owe." An aide said helplessly: "Why should I wait to pay back what the demon monk owes him?"

"Who said he didn't pay it back? Ask your lord, has he paid it back?" Taoist Mu Yun glanced at Lu Bu and said.

"I've paid it back, one life, one relic and one magic weapon." Lu Bu smiled and said, "It's not a loss."

"What else is there to be inconsatisfied with this?" Taoist Mu Yun shook his head and said, "Human hearts are just too greedy."

The person in charge of the Xia Pi farming was Xu Hong, the prefect of Xia Pi appointed by Lu Bu. He looked at Lu Bu and Mu Yun with a wry smile and said, "Now the lord wants to restore people's livelihood, but there must be land. There is not much land we can give to the people now. This thousand glut of fertile land is a powerful tool for us to attract the people. Now it has turned into Shatian, and the gathered people are unable to farm again."

"This is not difficult." Lu Bu carefully read the bamboo slips handed over by Chen Gong and said: "Issue a few edicts, and the government will plan new land for the people to reclaim. After the reclaim, it will be exempted from taxes for three years. After three years, only 50% of the taxes will be paid every year. After the payment is over five years, it will be restored to regular taxes."

"Lord, the fields you open are also thin fields. Even if they are tax-free, thin fields will not produce too much food." Xu Hong said with a wry smile.

"Then let's give another order. This land is allowed to be traded, but it can only be made of fields and fields. Any other form of transaction is not recognized by the government!" Lu Bu smiled. Last time he intimidated the aristocratic families, and the aristocratic families chose to surrender on the surface. Now Xuzhou has calmed down and started to prepare for people's livelihood. Then, we have to let these aristocratic families bleed. If you put them a few more times, you will probably know who is the real master of Xuzhou.

"Lord, this..." Xu Hong looked at Lu Bu, a little confused.

"To do it is to stay at the office and others do their own things." Lu Bu waved his hand without explaining. Just pass on these decrees. As for how to achieve the effect he wants... Don't forget that in Xuzhou, all the land in this territory is under Lu Bu's command. This world of immortals has mastered the power of immortals and gods before participating in this secular struggle. That is a dimensionality reduction attack. What are these people fighting with Lu Bu?

"Master?" After Xu Hong and others left, Chen Gong looked at Lu Bu.

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Don't worry, wait for someone to come, with their help. Next, you will take over and manipulate this matter. I want the Xuzhou family to lie down completely as soon as possible."

Chen Gong nodded, knelt and waited. Soon, a figure appeared in front of Lu Bu and bowed to Lu Bu and said, "Gu Changsheng meets the lord."

Among the many lands in Xuzhou with an average height of less than four feet, the body is eight feet long, the face looks like jade, the graceful face is always graceful, and the eyes are like Gu Changsheng, who can never open it, is an exception. Therefore, he was appointed by Lu Bu as the land ancestor of Xuzhou, responsible for coordinating all the lands in Xuzhou. Now he has a faint divine light on his body. Although he has only enjoyed the incense offerings in Xuzhou for a few days, the feeling has changed greatly.

"From today, you will contact the public station and this large-scale land production should be able to be controlled." Lu Bu raised his eyes and said.

"Of course, it's OK." Gu Changsheng nodded.

"Where is the land that is good for harvest this year, and where is the land that is not growing well this year or even has no grains? The office will tell you." Lu Bu said with a smile.

Chen Gong bowed slightly to Gu Changsheng, and with the entire Xuzhou land, Lu Bu's previous two inexplicable decrees were much easier to understand.

"Changsheng understands." Gu Changsheng bowed slightly, then nodded to Chen Gong and said, "Mr. Gongtai is giving advice."

"I dare not." Chen Gong shook his head quickly. Although he had obtained the Qi Practice of the Four Sutras of the Yellow Emperor given by Lu Bu during this period, he was far from being a practitioner of the practice of this path for the first time. Chen Gong did not dare to be negligent about the two strange people who often appeared around Lu Bu.

"You have actually subdued this land in Xuzhou. You are fighting for power with the Heavenly Court!" Taoist Mu Yun looked at Lu Bu and said, "Be careful. According to your words, many capable people emerge in that Heavenly Court. If you really lead the Heavenly Court to fight, the battle between Heavenly Court will be no match for you now."

"Don't worry, I'm not so reckless." Lu Bu nodded with a smile and said, "But this power of God was originally among our human race. Now, the matter of divine power will sooner or later be quarrel with the Heavenly Court."

"There are mostly old friends of my Jie Sect in the Heavenly Court. If there is a dispute at that time, I will not be able to help you." Taoist Mu Yun said that although the Jie Sect immortal after the gods could no longer be considered the Jie Sect immortal, it has really become an opposite. Taoist Mu Yun felt unbearable after all.

"You and I should not need to take action." Lu Bu nodded. If the Heavenly Court really came to attack, it would be the time for the witch clan to be born. Lu Bu would force out the strongest enemy to fight as much as possible.

"By the way, why don't you enter the Chen Tower to do these things?" Looking at the sticks refined by Taoist Mu Yun, Lu Bu said in confusion. There is at least five times the time to accelerate in the Chen Tower.

"The heaven and earth in the Chen Tower are not complete, and it is okay to accumulate Taoist magic power, but if you do these things, it is best not to do it in the Chen Tower. Otherwise, it may not be able to be used in the Chen Tower, but outside, unless we have done the best ratio, then the materials can be sent into the Chen Tower, and then the time can be accelerated and made quickly." Taoist Mu Yun shook his head and said.

Lu Bu frowned and said, "That Zilong and the others..."

"They are now practicing qi and body training, which is to seek internally. There is no problem before the soul comes out." Taoist Mu Yun explained.

In the next two days, Lu Bu didn't care much about government affairs. Taoist Mu Yun used various ordinary metals that he could recruit now to continue to test. Finally, he selected three items: jade chips, fine iron and copper as materials to make materials suitable for making magic tools.

It is cheap, and all ordinary people can calcinate it with ordinary fire. According to Lu Bu's plan, this thing can be mass-produced and will be reserved as the main production materials for Lu Bu in the future. However, there are not many corresponding minerals that can be found in Xuzhou.

"Lord, there is a team of aquarium soldiers outside the mansion, claiming that he is the envoy of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea to see the lord." When the guards came in, their legs and feet were a little unstraightened, and they said with a look of surprise and doubt. If they had never experienced the Battle of Guangling, ordinary soldiers were still very afraid of this legendary creature.

"Please!" Lu Bu was a little dissatisfied. How could his soldiers under him still have personal guards, so how could there be such creatures as cowards? After Zhou Cang's injury heals, he had to let Zhou Cang be his personal guard commander. The current personal guard commander is too bad.

"Here!" Although Lu Bu didn't say anything, the personal guard who had been following Lu Bu for a long time obviously felt Lu Bu's displeasure towards him, and quickly straightened his back, bowed to Lu Bu, and then turned around and left.

"Come here, call Ao Han, who is a guest in the mansion!" Lu Bu shouted to the door again. Since Ao Han followed Lu Bu to Xia Pi, Lu Bu did not tie him up, but just treated him as a guest, which gave him enough face to the dragon clan.

After a while, a middle-aged scholar with a slightly round figure came in with ten shrimp soldiers and bowed to Lu Bu, "Little God, see Marquis Wen."

"No need to be polite." Lu Bu waved his hand and looked up at the man and said, "I don't know if you are..."

"Xiao Shentian is the Prime Minister of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea."

"It turned out to be Prime Minister Turtle, I'm not respectful." Lu Bu smiled and said, "This incident of Ao Han..."

"My Dragon Lord has already known that today is coming to Tina Huai River Dragon King to return to the East Sea Dragon Palace. This crime must be suppressed by him for a hundred years before he can be released!" Prime Minister Turtle bowed and said.

"After this time, Ao Han did not bring actual losses to our army. I have a way to compromise." Lu Bu said with a smile.

"Mr. Wen, please tell me." Prime Minister Turtle smiled.

"How about letting him be a general under my command?"

"This..." Prime Minister Turtle said in vain: "Wen Hou forgives the crime, the Dragon Clan has never participated in the human disputes. In addition, the Dragon Clan also promises that as long as the Marquis Wen is in Xuzhou for one day, Xuzhou will be protected by good weather."

"Thank you for me on my behalf. In addition, I have some things in Xuzhou that I want to cooperate with the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea." Lu Bu also gave a try about Ao Han. The important thing is not Ao Han, but whether he can pull the dragon clan into his own chariot. It is best to be able to do it. If he cannot, it is not disappointing. After all, the dragon clan has always been relatively low-key, and Lu Bu is now beginning to erode the throne of the Heavenly Court. This shows signs of a battle between heaven and man. With the cautious personality of the dragon clan, it is impossible to easily be told to participate.

But it doesn't matter. Lu Bu didn't expect the Dragon Clan to be pulled in immediately at the beginning, but cooperation with the Dragon Clan was very necessary.

"Mr. Wen, please speak!"
