Chapter 176 Unexpected

The rainy weather has finally passed. According to locals, there is a period of rain every year. Sometimes it can fall intermittently for several months, causing the water level of Dongting Lake to rise and nearby dealers will be flooded. It is precisely because of this, although the scenery on both sides of Dongting Lake is beautiful, there are not many people living there, let alone building a city. The surrounding soil is extremely wet. If the city is really built, even if it is built, it may sink.

Zhao Fan also told Liu Yi about this issue, but if Liu Yi wants to build a real city of mechanisms, he must consider the source of power. To use Dongting Lake, he must first control the water, use the mechanisms, water dragons, dig ditches, and lead the water of Dongting Lake to all directions. Not only will it not become a disaster, but it will even make this Jingnan area a fertile land because of Dongting Lake.

However, if you want to do these, the original budget is probably not enough. If you recruit civilians, you have to choose autumn, otherwise it will easily miss the farming season. In addition, the cost required is greatly increased. Digging rivers and building roads can all be used to make attributes, but Liu Yi dare not imagine the cost now. It is certain that hundreds of millions are certain. Mi Zhu and Liu Yi talked about it in the past that when the Mi family was glorious, the family's wealth was claimed to be tens of billions, but it was just an imaginary number, and in fact it was only seven or eight billion.

That is the top luxury business family in the world, including many fixed assets, and the real ones can only take advantage of it. Although Liu Bei is now in power, he probably won’t have much money if he wants, let alone Liu Yi.

I have to find a way out myself!

Silently blowing off the debris from the statue, Liu Yi jumped off the statue of Bixia Yuanjun, looked at the lifelike statue in front of him, and nodded with satisfaction. With the construction of Confucius Temple and the God of Wealth Temple one after another, this Bixia Yuanjun Temple was the last place, and the effect also made Liu Yi quite satisfied.

Bixia Yuanjun Temple: Lifelike + 32, material like jade + 35, peace of mind + 34, temple attributes: prosperous population + 35

Although I don’t know if the population is prosperous and reproductive at a fast pace, it is obviously able to increase the population.

As for the other two temples, lifelike seems to be the standard for this kind of thing. What Liu Yi valued the most was the attributes of the two temples. Confucius Temple had a prosperous academic style, but the Temple of God of Wealth had a wealth of wealth.

I hope these four temples can bring some political achievements to Zhao Yun. Anyway, Liu Yi did not see much change in the city in a short period of time. Unlike other attributes, which can be effective in the short term, this type of attribute similar to halos, if it wants to achieve results, it must be verified by time.

All four temples have been completed at this point, each in four directions of the city.

"Sir, will this Bixia Yuanjun Temple be back to Changsha after it is built?" Wei Yan came to Liu Yi and asked.

"Yeah." Liu Yi nodded, and saw Wei Yan's face flushed, and he couldn't help but joke: "You haven't left for a while, are you waiting for me?"

"Yes." Wei Yan smiled and said, "This time, the lord was valued. He became the lieutenant of the Fenwu School and chose to go to Jiangling to work. Thanks to the recommendation of his husband, and he happened to go along with him and escort him for another journey!"

The Fenwu School Captain is considered a miscellaneous school captain, not very high, but he listens to Liu Bei and has many opportunities to show his performance. With Wei Yan's ability, he will not worry about not having a future ahead. In addition, Huang Zhong was appointed as a general of Changsha County this time and was transferred to Jiangling. It can be seen that Liu Bei still attaches great importance to the talents recommended by Liu Yi.

Liu Yi patted Wei Yan on the shoulder and said, "Remember what he said to you before. As for recommendations... Maybe without me, you will be valued sooner or later with your talent. There is no need to thank you, just do it with your means."

"Sir, Yan must remember the teachings in his heart." Wei Yan nodded fiercely. At this moment, he was filled with vitality all over his body. Although he said so, Liu Yi estimated that it would be difficult for Wei Yan to take action at this time.

Liu Yi didn't say much, he walked the road by himself, and if others talked too much, it would easily make people disgusted. After disbanding a group of craftsmen, Liu Yi took Wei Yan back: "What's the matter with Zhao Fan?"

"I was about to tell you about this to the sir." Wei Yan looked around and lowered his voice, "There is something wrong with Brother Zhao Fan's death."

"Oh?" Liu Yi looked at Wei Yan unexpectedly.

"In theory, the prefect of Guiyang should be the head of Zhao Fan, but for some reason, his brother suddenly died three years ago. Zhao Fan followed and replaced the Zhao family and became the head of the clan. Moreover, his brother was buried hastily. The only wife of the entire Zhao family, the Fan family, insisted on filial piety for him." Wei Yan said: "Immediately, Zhao Fan was given the position of prefect."

Simply put, Zhao Fan took over as the head of the Zhao family after his brother died, and then he obtained the position of prefect.

"Has his brother ever been an official?" Liu Yi asked.

"I was appointed as the chief clerk of Jingzhou. For some reason, I later resigned and returned home. I heard that I offended the powerful and powerful people in Xiangyang." Wei Yan said.

"You were also a general in Xiangyang in the past, can you know this person?" Liu Yi asked.

"When the last time we were in Xiangyang, the Zhao brother had already resigned and had never heard of this person when we were in Xiangyang." Wei Yan shook his head.

"The affairs of this clan are already complicated." Liu Yi shook his head and smiled: "How is the relationship between husband and wife?"

"The old couple, young wife, have heard of it very well." Wei Yan laughed and said, "Maybe it was because of this."

Zhao Fan is now forty years old, so brother Zhao Fan is naturally older. The average age is not high these days. It would be strange if he holds such a beautiful wife and doesn't devote himself to her whole life.

For some reason, Liu Yi felt that Wei Yan was a little vulgar at this moment.

But the next moment, Wei Yan's expression became serious and pointed to another direction and said, "Sir, let's go to the Zhongwu Emperor Temple to have a look?"

"Hmm?" Liu Yi looked at Wei Yan in confusion. Where did he sing this?

Wei Yan didn't say much, but just changed his eyes with Liu Yi.

Liu Yi frowned slightly, nodded, followed Wei Yan and walked towards the direction of Emperor Zhongwu Temple.

"Sir, we seem to be being followed." Wei Yan took Liu Yi and deliberately turned a few street corners and whispered.

"Then go back to the yamen directly, why did you take me more and more deviate?" Liu Yi looked at Wei Yan in confusion. Chen County is now Liu Bei's territory. The army in the city can gather immediately with just one word of Liu Yi, not to mention that there are such powerful generals as Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong. What's there to be afraid of? And why are you getting more and more deviate?

"If you go back to the yamen office, how dare these people miss their whereabouts?" Wei Yan sneered: "Sir, don't you want to know who is following you and me?"

Don't want to know!

Liu Yi was speechless. This was using himself as bait!

"Have Wen Chang considered my safety?" Liu Yi looked at Wei Yan and asked very seriously, but he made up his mind that he would not be with Wei Yan in the future. This kid likes to find excitement.

"Don't worry, sir!" Wei Yan smiled and said, "Some stupid thieves, Yan has never taken them seriously yet!"

Liu Yi sighed and silently put the crossbow he made in his sleeve, and at the same time added a solid attribute to himself, without any disaster.

However, what surprised Liu Yi was that after the two of them walked to the secluded place, they did not have the imagined siege and killing. Those who followed seemed to have given up. This plot... is not very correct.

"Sir, stay here!" Wei Yan looked around, pulled Liu Yi to a corner, then walked out with great strides, and turned a corner and disappeared.

Your uncle!

Liu Yi's face looked a little ugly. How could he feel like a crisis in the originally ordinary environment?

A scream came faintly from afar. After a while, Wei Yan dragged a man to Liu Yi like a dead dog.

"Kneel down!" Wei Yan kicked the other party in the leg, causing the other party to kneel down in front of Liu Yi. At the same time, several former soldiers from Mocheng came from all over the world and blocked the roads around.

"Chen Ying?" Liu Yi looked at the man in front of him. It was Chen Ying, the general under Zhao Fan. After Zhao Fan surrendered, Liu Yi did not touch the generals under Zhao Fan, but just organized them into the army: "Why are you here?"

Chen Ying looked up, glanced at Liu Yi, and said nothing.

"Cover your face and take it back." Although Liu Yi didn't know what happened, he was living in Guiyang and Guiyang County during this period. He was not easy to interfere and did not want to care too much. Now it seems that Wei Yan's actions today were not his own idea.

As for why Chen Ying is here, I'm afraid he can't get out of touch with Zhao Fan, but what exactly does this fat man want to do?

"Here!" Wei Yan waved his hand, and several soldiers from Mocheng stepped forward, blocked Chen Ying directly, and then covered his face.

"Do Zilong know about this?" Liu Yi looked at Wei Yan and said.

Wei Yan nodded: "It is related to the safety of the sir, and we will naturally report General Zilong to General Zilong."

"How much do you know now?" Liu Yi sighed. It seemed that he was the only one who was kept in the dark now.

"Zhao Fan's target is Mr. Zhao Fan. Last month, a general in Zhao Fan's mansion suddenly came to find General Zilong with letters from Zhao Fan and Cai Mao. Zhao Fan was very close to Cai Mao. His brother offended Cai Mao in Xiangyang and was deposed to resign from his post and returned home. Mr. Zhouping even suspected that his brother's death was related to Zhao Fan." Wei Yan said: "Mr. Zhouping once asked someone to inquire that Zhao Fan was able to become the prefect of Guiyang, which was recommended by Cai Mao."

"He knows too?" Liu Yi was speechless. So many things happened during the relationship, but he knew nothing. He looked at Wei Yan and said, "What is written in that letter? Do you want to arrest me?"

In the Battle of Red Cliff, Cai Mao was not as suspiciously killed by Cao Cao as in the Romance of the Romance. Even Cai Mao was not a navy general at all. Until now, Cai Mao still lived a very comfortable life. Cao Cao was good to him, so although Cao Cao retreated, with the connections between Cai Mao and Kuai Yue in Jingxiang, he could still secretly reach here.

"That's right, and you need to capture alive, and there must be no mistakes." Wei Yan nodded and said.

I was thinking about this by Boss Cao! After looking at Chen Ying, Liu Yi thought for a while and said, "Although Chen County is our army's place, the Zhao family is deeply rooted here. After a while, you and I will pretend that nothing has happened. Go back. Others pressed Chen Ying back to the yamen office and sent someone to notify Brother Zilong first and ask him to block the four doors."

Zhao Fan could not stay anymore. As for how to deal with it, it depends on what Liu Bei means. It seems that even if he follows Liu Bei now, he should not be careless about his own safety. This time he was captured alive. If he comes again next time, he may not be captured alive, but killed directly!
