Yanzhou has been completely transformed in a short period of time.
From a barren land ravaged by war, it suddenly turned into a paradise of production and orderly living.
Outside, there are Qingzhou soldiers led by Cao Cao who risk their lives to defend their homeland.
Inside, whether it is Yanzhou residents or the new influx of Yellow Turban family members, they are focused on farming. Everyone has clothes to wear and land to farm...
No longer need to worry about not having a stable place to live, no longer need to worry about being insecure.
The price paid was just to hand over some of the cultivated grain to Cao Cao...
In these troubled times? Where can we find such a good life?
For a time, the barren Yanzhou gradually glowed with vitality. The soldiers and horses under Cao Cao became stronger and stronger, and even the grain stored in the warehouse became richer...
…
…
Chenliu County, Suanzao County, "that" wine shop.
It's very lively here today.
Not far from the wine shop, an uninhabited house is being renovated.
All the houses are open, with no doors or even walls, only a row of small wooden fences surrounding the houses.
Through the wooden fence, the appearance of the house is clearly visible.
Inside, there are various forging tools, such as iron melting furnaces, grinding tables, and various iron tools, and mountains of iron are piled on the side.
"Sir, are you going to open a blacksmith shop?"
Looking at the renovation of the house through the window, Cai Zhaoji looked curious. "Is this an iron shop? Is this the big business that Mr. wants to do?"
At the moment, she was full of doubts about Dou...
Although forging, iron-making, and weapon-polishing are very popular in these troubled times?
However, Chenliu County is originally famous for its blacksmithing. There are countless blacksmith shops here. Why would you want to compete with them for business?
For a moment, Cai Zhaoji was a little confused.
"Yes, this is the business I want to do!"
Yi Xiaotian raised his eyes and smiled slightly...
At this time, he was drawing, and Cai Zhaoji glanced at it. It seemed to be a manufacturing blueprint. She was familiar with poetry and books, but she knew nothing about the forging skills. She looked around carefully and couldn't tell the reason.
"gentlemen…"
Cai Zhaoji blinked her big eyes. "With all due respect, although your body bones are considered strong, they are definitely not strong enough to forge a weapon? Not to mention forging a broadsword, I'm afraid that even that heavy iron may not be possible for you, sir."
Move it?"
Well…
It seems to be despised.
Yi Xiaotian looked at himself, and what Cai Zhaoji said was right.
My biceps are not very well developed, my waist does not have eight-pack abs, and my Achilles tendons are not very strong. Let alone cast iron, I am afraid that the bones of this body will be severely ravaged by iron.
Seeing Yi Xiaotian's silence, Cai Zhaoji continued to ask, "Sir, you don't want to use forged iron to exercise, do you? If that's the case... forget it, I'm really worried, don't hurt your husband again."
call…
Yi Xiaotian was helpless and shook his head.
"Zhaoji, you don't have to have your husband to do the blacksmithing in person? Now in the market, it only costs 10,000 five baht to buy a strong man, but your husband can still afford it... not to mention..."
Yi Xiaotian pointed at the two boxes filled with gold, silver and jewelry, as if to express, we are not short of money!
"Besides, this blacksmith shop can make more money for me, and I can use the money to build a study, a piano repair room, and a medical office. Sir, I want to build this wine shop into a villa with everything.
When the time comes, Zhaoji, you don’t have to keep accounts anymore, and you can go play the piano and teach, wouldn’t it be nice?”
Well…
Yi Xiaotian painted a beautiful blueprint!
But turning a wine shop into a villa? Is it possible in troubled times?
Not to mention the huge monetary expenditure required to build the villa.
What kind of world is this? A loving mother sheds tears at night, and the king's flag changes on the city wall.
If the protection is not complete, one day a cruel prince will capture Yanzhou and loot it, and all the efforts will be wasted.
Drawing lessons from the past, Dong Zhuo burned down Luoyang and plundered wealthy households, so we must consider it?
Thinking of this, Cai Zhaoji shook her head and whispered, "Sir's idea is a bit unreasonable."
Ha ha…
Hearing this, Yi Xiaotian stopped writing in his hand and asked, "What's the matter?" He waved his hand. "Zhaoji, don't believe it. Within three years, our wine shop will definitely turn into a villa, and among them
, there is a study room, a piano room, and a medical office, it will be a paradise."
"puff…"
Seeing Yi Xiaotian's serious look, Cai Zhaoji suddenly wanted to laugh.
He likes Yi Xiaotian like this, full of confidence, as if everything in the world is under control. "Okay, okay, whatever the gentleman says, it will be whatever it is!"
"You don't believe it?" Yi Xiaotian could see her doubts.
"I don't believe it!" Cai Zhaoji smiled and shook her head.
"How about we also make a bet?" Yi Xiaotian raised his hand with great interest.
"Bet?" Cai Zhaoji waved her hair like a waterfall and shook her head. "There's nothing a little girl can lose to sir."
"How could it be!" Yi Xiaotian stood up, "Three years from now, Miss Zhaoji must have long hair that reaches her waist, right? By then...I..."
"Sir..." Before Yi Xiaotian could finish speaking, Cai Zhaoji's pretty face suddenly turned red.
She has followed Yi Xiaotian for a long time, and she understands her husband's temperament very well.
My husband is like this. He is always talking seriously in one breath, and then loses his seriousness in the next breath. This time, he was joking about her...
Looking at Yi Xiaotian with resentment, Cai Zhaoji felt embarrassed and trotted out of the room slowly.
But at this moment.
"Definitely..."
A war horse neighed.
"Quickly, get two kilograms of mutton and two pots of scalding wine and wrap them up for me!"
A knight came rushing like a whirlwind.
Through the window, Yi Xiaotian could see countless horse hoof prints on the official road. He came from the direction of Chenliu and seemed to be heading to Xuzhou. When he looked at the knight, his expression seemed to be quite hasty.
Hmm? Xuzhou?
Yi Xiaotian thought of something and quickly walked out of the house, "This strong man, are you going to Xuzhou?"
"Yes, we are going to Langya County..." the strong man replied subconsciously.
"Oh!" Yi Xiaotian thought thoughtfully, and then, holding his chin, he chanted, "Langya County? It seems that the father of Cao Cao, our Yanzhou shepherd, lives there!"
"Huh?" The knight was slightly startled... Seeing that Yi Xiaotian was kind and undefended, he blurted out. "This shopkeeper is very knowledgeable. I went to Langya County this time to deliver a message to the old man."
At this point, the knight pointed to the bamboo tube he was carrying behind him.
"This is a letter written by Mr. Cao to the old man. Today, our Yanzhou is prosperous under the governance of Mr. Cao. Mr. Cao invites the old man to come here to enjoy his blessings!"
really.
Yi Xiaotian smacked his lips and murmured in his heart. "Enjoy the blessing? It's almost finished. Now that this letter has been delivered, the countdown to the fate of Cao Cao and his father Cao Song has begun, right?"
