Chapter 534 Father and Son

After October, Liu Bei led the ministers in the court to tour Luoyang in the east. In this month, Liu Bei and Cao Rui announced the world at the same time and changed the country's name. Zhang Wu was Liu Bei's first year name, but now the Han Dynasty is growing and the Han Dynasty is becoming more and more prosperous, and Liu Bei also wants to change the year name to indicate that the Han Dynasty has entered a new era.

Jianxing was Liu Bei's second year name. Liu Bei went east to announce the world at the former site of Luoyang. In the same month, Cao Rui changed the country's name to Taihe. In the sixth year of Zhangwu in the Han Dynasty, the seventh year of Huangchu in Wei, and in 227 AD, after the war in Guanzhong, the world entered a new period of peace. However, the situation in the world was no longer the only one in Wei. Jiang Ji was on an envoy to the Eastern Wu, and the Han Dynasty also sent Deng Zhi to the Eastern Wu to maintain the relationship between the two countries. The situation of the three-part world became more complicated.

Rumble ~

The city wall was completely pushed to the ancient capital of the past, and now it has been completely flattened. Cranes began to dig foundations on the banks of the Wei River, demolished the waste left in Chang'an City and classified them. Those that can be used will be processed and then re-entered into the materials for building the city. The tracks in Hanzhong will not be opened to traffic until November, and the materials will be transported continuously until then. Now we are just making some preparations in advance.

The people of Chang'an and civil and military officials have now been moved to the newly built village on the banks of the Wei River. This place is thirty miles north of Chang'an. In the future, it will be a scaffolding city north of Chang'an. The materials used are also obtained by demolishing the Chang'an city. The operation of the imperial court is now in progress.

"Father, according to the design drawings, according to the speed of workmanship of the craftsmen hired by his father, even if the manpower is enough, it will take two years to build the Erdu at the same time. What's more, the people obviously cannot work during the busy farming period, and the progress will be greatly reduced. Moreover, my father's project is not just Erdu, but also roads to various counties in Xiliang. If all the problems are calculated, it may take five years in the end, which is not considered uncertain issues such as rainy seasons." Liu Cheng came to Liu Yi with a sketch and handed Liu Yi what he calculated to Liu Yi for his viewing.

"It's similar to what you're doing for your husband. Have you ever calculated how much these projects will cost together?" Liu Yi looked at the sketch and asked with a smile.

"If it is completed, if it is not delayed, at least 13.7 billion will be required. However, according to the method of my father building Yueyang, Xiangyang and Yunnan in the past, after the initial investment of 3 billion yuan, the second capital can be restored. In fact, the imperial court does not need to really take out so much 13.7 billion. Currently, the population of Jingzhao is 800,000, radiating to the surrounding areas to Longxi, Jincheng, and Wuwei, there are millions of people. Based on these populations, the 3 billion funds can be returned from the second year and increased year by year. By the fifth year, the three billion can even be supplemented. However, the situation in Xiliang is complicated, and these are just not considering any resistance. But in fact, there are also Qiang people, Hu people and even Western Regions people who will become obstacles to these plans. My father said before that he would go to Xiliang to start next year, which is for these things." Liu Cheng thought seriously.

Looking at his son, Liu Yi smacked his lips. He wouldn't have given birth to a monster, he knew so much at the age of twelve, and his brain seemed to be a little better than himself.

How long have I thought about these plans? I also deduced them with Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang, but when I put them in my son, I can easily figure them out?

"Have you asked Kong Ming?" Liu Yi looked at Liu Cheng with a bad expression. Could it be that Kong Ming, the dark-bellied guy, was digging a hole for himself because of his violent intervention in the Prime Minister's Mansion some time ago?

"The child has been by my father these days and has never seen Uncle Zhuge. In addition, it is not too difficult to collect all the information and calculate the corresponding data without asking anyone to detect these variables." Liu Cheng handed the volume of paper in his hand to Liu Yi and looked at it. They were all densely calculated sequences. Some of them could understand, but some...

"My son is really honest, haha~" Liu Yi flipped through and handed back the things to Liu Cheng: "Have you done everything you asked you to supervise the allocation of materials before? Who are so cooperative?"

"The child found Sikong and contacted several gentry families who had agreed to their father's plan." Liu Cheng nodded.

"It's quite good to take advantage of the situation." Liu Yi nodded helplessly. His son is too genius and sometimes he feels very embarrassed. He is still a little embarrassed at the age of twelve, but he is already a little unable to hold back.

"However, what my son does is relying on the reputation of being a father, but have you ever thought of building a career by yourself without relying on being a father?" Liu Yi looked at Liu Cheng and asked with a smile.

"The child is just thinking about it. Although the father has been asking the child to do things and hone his children for a while, these things are not too difficult. The child wants to do something alone." Liu Cheng bowed.

"Oh?" For some reason, Liu Yi felt despised and looked at his son and asked, "Does my son have plans?"

Liu Cheng nodded and said, "The child wants to join the army, go alone, start with ordinary soldiers."

"Ah?" Liu Yi frowned at Liu Cheng when he heard this. Although he had indeed planned to join the army before, he had never thought of letting him start from a small soldier. After all, no matter how much he said, he was his own son. The soldiers on the battlefield were fierce and dangerous, and the death rate of the small soldier who charged into battle was definitely higher than that of the general. No matter how cruel Liu Yi was, he was just thinking of letting Liu Cheng be a grassroots or a middle-level general. He never thought of letting him start from a grassroots level. Who would have thought that Liu Cheng would make such a request himself?

"My son has not passed the battle formation and does not know that the battlefield is dangerous. If he really wants to join the army, he can choose the position of general in the first army for you. It will not be too high." Liu Yi was stunned for a moment and shook his head.

Liu Cheng shook his head and said calmly: "My father's current status is captured by his father. His father can grow from a craftsman step by step to the current position of the Three Officials. He can also turn around the world's views on craftsmen by himself. The child also wants to build a world for my family like his father."

"Your mother won't agree." Liu Yi shook his head. Before, he just mentioned it a little, and his wife almost turned against him. If he knew that he would start with a soldier, he would start with a soldier. Liu Yi would not dare to imagine what his wife would react now.

"How can I train my father even if he wants to temper his child, but he is unwilling to let go?" Liu Cheng bowed and said, "Don't worry, even if the child starts with a soldier, he will eventually have a day to make a comeback. When he returns to his father, he will be famous all over the world!"

"Wait for two years, being a soldier is not something that can survive by being smart. On the battlefield, living is luck, and death is fate, I will not agree." Shaking his head, the child was passionate and impulsive, eager to prove his mood. Liu Yi could understand that he also came from that era, but as a father, no matter how strict he was, he could not really let his son run to the front line of the battlefield.

In order not to hinder his son from forming his own opinions, Liu Yi never hindered his son's decision. But this time, Liu Yi felt that he could no longer let the little bastard make the decision.

When Liu Cheng heard this, he nodded silently and stopped talking.

Looking at his son who kept silent, Liu Yi frowned, and always felt something was wrong. Although his son is steady and obedient, once he has an idea, he is very stubborn. Why is he so easy to talk to today?

"The track laying and personnel allocation in Hanzhong are there. I will follow you during this period and adjust all parties. You will handle the matter in this case at your own discretion." Liu Yi looked at his son's tender face and suddenly thought that there were not a few soldiers in the army today. He felt that it was even more inappropriate and decided to arrange more things for him to do so that this kid would not think about it all day long.

"Here!" Liu Cheng nodded, bowed to Liu Yi, and said goodbye and left.

"I'll go back with me later, your mother will call us to go back for dinner tonight." Liu Yi shouted to Liu Cheng.

"Yes!" Liu Cheng turned around, nodded, and continued to turn and leave.

Alas ~

Looking at the back of his son leaving, Liu Yi sighed and turned around and left. There was still a lot of things to deal with.

That night, the father and son took Wangcai to go home by car. When Liu Ming, who was already graceful, saw his father coming back, poured tea for Liu Yi intimately and stayed by Liu Yi's side, talking about some interesting things about this period. The new village was newly established, and many things had to be dealt with and order needed to be maintained. The city was a little chaotic, and there were a large number of idle men looking for trouble on the street. These people were also the source of Liu Ming's happiness.

She would pretend to be a minority girl and sway around the streets, while Wei Fei and others were with them.

Because of the excellent genes of parents, Liu Ming looks like he is only sixteen years old, but he is already in trouble. Even if he deliberately acts ugly, he can still attract many idle men to come and tease and pretend to be pitiful. Then, when the other party is most proud, Wei Fei and others suddenly came out and captured these people and sent them to the yamen office.

Now is the time when people are short of people. These idle men are usually thrown to Liu Yi as coolies. Although there are not many, they can provide Liu Yi with five or six every day. Recently, idle men in this city dare not provoke women casually, for fear of being cheated.

Although Liu Yi felt a little naive, the group of little guys enjoyed it and indirectly maintained public order. At least now, even those rich playboys in the city walls dared not run to the street to cause trouble, for fear of being punished by this demon king. So far, six or seven have been sent to Liu Yi as a coolie without knowing the other party’s identity. It usually takes four or five days. The family members found Liu Yi and took the people back.

That night, Liu Cheng was very well-behaved and did not mention joining the army again. His behavior was normal at night, which made Liu Yi feel a little relieved. However, when Liu Yi saw Liu Cheng leaving a book the next day, his face suddenly became gloomy.
