Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

"Let them wait for a few more days!" Lu Bu said after a moment of silence, looking at Yang Li.

It's not that I'm afraid of meeting these officials, but that I really don't have much time to go to court and argue with people.

Chang'an was stabilized, but Guanzhong was not completely stabilized. In half a month, Lu Bu only made a framework and mobilized people to control the most severe plague first, and the water conservancy was only a few rivers that broke their embankments. Reluctantly blocked, it would be a lie to say that you can sit back and relax.

Half a month is too short. There are so many things that cannot be done in half a month. Half a month can only barely make it worse. The sting of the family is just Lu Bu redefining taxation, but for For Lu Bu, the most serious problem is the spread of the disaster and the continuous loss of population in Guanzhong, so Lu Bu has no time to argue with these people now.

"Here~" Yang Ligong respectfully agreed, he was just here to deliver a message, as for whether Lu Bu agreed, what does that have to do with him?

Since Diao Chan is formally taking a concubine, although it won't be a big deal, she will also choose an auspicious day, which is probably the eighth day of the seventh month, which is still a month away from now.

Lu Bu entrusted this matter to the Yan family. He wanted to take advantage of this time to go to various places to investigate. Before that, he had asked the emperor to issue an edict to all counties and counties, and invited famous doctors and craftsmen to gather in Chang'an. Now famous doctors and craftsmen from all over the country have gathered in Chang'an. Therefore, for Lu Bu, instead of talking nonsense to those courtiers who are not in the same mind, it is better to study how to further eliminate the plague and flood.

In the Wei Wei Department, dozens of craftsmen gathered together, the oldest one was in his 60s, and the youngest one looked only in his teens. As a craftsman, he was flattered to be invited by Wei Wei, and he did not dare to talk to each other. Talk too much, for fear of offending someone, for them, every one of the Guard Department is an unattainable existence.

"My lord has arrived!" Jiang Xu, who had been officially appointed as Wei Weicheng, came in and looked at the crowd and said in a low voice.

Everyone got up quickly, but they felt that their eyes were dark, but it was Lu Bu's burly figure appearing at the door, which directly blocked most of the sunlight, and the invisible oppression surged, making everyone who saw Lu Bu feel suffocated in the chest for the first time.

"See Wei Wei!" Everyone dared not neglect, and quickly saluted Lu Bu.

"No need to be too polite!" Lu Bu went straight to his seat and sat down, looked at the crowd and said, "Now that the people in Guanzhong are killed, everyone who can respond to the imperial court's call is my righteous man. Bu thank you in advance!"

Seeing that Lu Bu actually gave a real salute, everyone hurriedly turned sideways, not even daring to say anything.

"To be polite, I won't say much. Now there are thirteen embankments in the Weishui River alone. Although they are blocked now, they may be opened again at any time. The flood is uncertain and the people are in trouble. You are all famous craftsmen in this pass. , I am going to invite you to come here, and I will go to various places to direct the construction of dams and solve the floods!"

Lu Bu looked at the crowd and said solemnly: "Of course, everyone has worked so hard to come here, the court will not make people feel cold, and the rewards will never be small. Moreover, if those who have benefited from water control this time are willing to become officials, regardless of their background, I Anyone can recommend him to the court as an official."

Of course, officials cannot be given indiscriminately. In fact, the big man has some shortcomings in official positions such as craftsmen, not without them, but he basically does not do anything. Lu Bu wants to take this opportunity to imitate some of the systems of the big man.

There is one thing to say, although the big cadres are weak, they will be relatively more perfect in terms of the system. There are no new things. Most of the official positions of the big cadres can be found in the big Han, but they are more targeted.

This disaster relief is an opportunity. If the strength of the craftsmen can be brought into full play, it will be very powerful. The armament of Daqian is invincible, and the root of the defeat is not here.

A group of craftsmen's eyes lit up when they heard the words. The difficulty of getting into the court of the craftsman's family is so difficult that it can make people desperate. Now they have the opportunity to do their part for the common people, and at the same time, there are also benefits!

Originally, the purpose of everyone coming here was to respond to the imperial court's call and contribute to the world, without expecting anything in return, but when they came to Lu Bu's place, they really did, and suddenly seemed to have strength all over their bodies.

"It is our fortune to be able to do our part for the imperial court and the people of Guanzhong, and I dare not ask for it!"

For this kind of words, Lu Bu just listened to it, and really lost. He really needs a group of craftsmen who have the ability to coordinate.

"I would like to ask you to tell me how to deal with the flood in Guanzhong?" Lu Bu directly put aside the vain things, at least now what he wants is efficiency rather than good-looking nonsense.

However, a group of craftsmen can do it by making objects, building bridges or even designing a dam, but it is a bit difficult for them to come up with a water control plan from an overview of the overall situation.

Although Lu Bu has experience in several lifetimes, how to control the water is done by others rather than by himself.

All the craftsmen were suddenly speechless.

"General, let me wait to build dams and bridges, but how can I control the water..." The old craftsman looked at Lu Bu with a wry smile. This major is not suitable for him.

"Difficult?" Lu Bu frowned.

"I... am... next... or... maybe there... but... I can help... the general!" In the hall, when all the craftsmen were silent, the youngest craftsman stood up suddenly and spoke to the general. He bowed to Lu Bu, and stuttered.

Stutter?

Lu Bu looked at the young man, frowned slightly, nodded and said, "Talk..."

"Since... since ancient times..."

The veins on Lu Bu's forehead twitched, and he interrupted the boy, "Can you read?"

Most artisans these days are illiterate.

"Know...know." The young craftsman nodded quickly.

"Bo Yi!" Lu Bu turned his head to look at Jiang Xu: "He wrote, you say!"

"Here!"

Jiang Xu nodded, and asked someone to prepare bamboo slips and pens and ink for the young man. The young man understood, and immediately picked up a pen to write, and Jiang Xu helped him read it out.

"Since ancient times, water control has been nothing more than blocking and dredging. I have seen floods in various places along the way. In fact, the reason why the Weishui and Jinghe rivers flooded this year was due to the continuous snowfall last winter and the continuous rain in spring, which caused the rivers to surge. The key to governance is where to dredge and where to block. I have made a dredging map. If you dig gullies according to this map and guide the water well, this time the flood can not only be solved, but also nourished. Fertile soil in all directions!"

"Let's take a look." Seeing Jiang Xu looking at him, Lu Bu nodded.

The young man took out a map from his pocket and spread it out. Lu Bu got up and walked forward. The young man wrote vigorously again.

"The water potential is too large, so let the accumulated flood water be drained away first. Eight gullies are dug here to divert the water away. Sifang Cultivated Fields has dug a canal in advance to bring in the water. It can be diverted and reinforced several times here to slow down the water potential!"

"In addition, the line of sight is well diverted in the Baqiao area, and the people are moved away first, and then a long river is dug here to divert the water to the tributaries of the Yellow River. Nourish the land again!"

Lu Bu looked at the map and it sounded reasonable, but he was not a professional in this matter after all, so he turned his head to look at the young man, and his eyes fell on the young man's bamboo slip: "Who are you?"

In these days, people who can read and write are generally from some background. Judging by the clothes on the young man's body, his family background should not be considered good. He is also a little shy and nervous when talking with others, but he is very fluent when writing.

"Fu...Fufeng...Ma Jun...see...see...the general!" Facing Lu Bu's gaze, even a normal person might stutter, let alone Ma Jun who already had a stutter.

Ma Jun, a man from Fufeng, his ancestors were local gentry, but later his family fell into poverty, but there are still some books in the family, the most are things like mechanical mathematics. He is a well-known craftsman in Fufeng. He is from a poor family, good at ingenious thinking, and quite keen on numeracy.

It is not something that can be figured out with ingenuity alone to sort out the entire Guanzhong flood problem.

Of course, Lu Bu didn't know about Ma Jun's background, but the young man spoke seriously, which seemed to make sense. Most importantly, there was no one around Lu Bu who was good at this.

"How long will it take if you come to control the water?" Lu Bu asked while looking at Ma Jun.

"No... I don't know..."

"I don't know?" Lu Bu frowned.

Ma Jun blushed immediately: "No...not...no..."

Lu Bu looked at Jiang Xu, Jiang Xu understood, and gradually handed a new blank to Ma Jun. Ma Jun breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly wrote: "I don't know how many troops the general can dispatch? How many supplies?"

"How many troops do you need?" Lu Bu asked.

"Judging from the places that the general is currently blocking, the embankment will break again in no more than one month. If you want to prevent the embankment from breaking again, you need at least 8,000 people, and... these 8,000 people must be dispatched by me." In the end, Jiang Xu also hesitated a little, and looked at Lu Bu.

Eight thousand is not a small amount, let a young man command, even if Lu Bu gave it, how would he convince the crowd?

"Give you 8,000 people, can you be sure to cure the flood?" Lu Bu asked with a frown.

"No...no..." Ma Jun shook his head.

Lu Bu waited patiently, but after waiting for a while, Ma Jun didn't see any more words, and looked at Ma Jun with some surprise.

"I... I'm... next..." Ma Jun blushed nervously, and after a while, he suddenly picked up the bamboo slips and continued to write quickly.

"It's the first time I'm doing this. The matter of water control is very important. If there is a slight mistake, there is a risk of breaking the embankment, so I can't guarantee it!" After Jiang Xu finished reading, he gave Ma Jun a strange look. This child... Honest man .

Lu Bu nodded and said to Jiang Xu, "Go and call Hua Xiong here!"

Jiang Xu understood and bowed to leave.

Lu Bu was obviously planning to use this young man. Although it was a bit risky, besides the young man, Lu Bu had no one else to use in water control.

"I will let Hua Xiong go with you. He is in charge of commanding the soldiers, and you are in charge of commanding him." Lu Bu looked at Ma Jun and said in a deep voice, "Do your best, it won't be worse than it is now!"

"Here!"
