The mansion Liu Bei prepared for Li Jun is located on the south side of the main street of Yiling City. There are many shops and restaurants around this place, and people come and go. It is very bustling and lively, full of the atmosphere of human fireworks. In the modern era, it is a prime location.
I heard from the Shu soldiers leading the way that this mansion used to belong to a wealthy businessman. For some unknown reason, his family fell into decline, so even the servants in the mansion sold it off at a low price to survive the hardship.
Therefore, Li Jun's new mansion is fully equipped, which means that he does not need to do anything, buy or hire anything. He can move in directly and become the owner of the mansion.
As for his die-hard fans, Xu Da, Li Jun will naturally not forget to bring him into his 'Li Mansion' to live together.
Arriving at Li Mansion,
At this time, at the gate, there were already servants in uniforms hanging a new plaque, with two hot golden letters of "Li Mansion!" shining dazzlingly in the sun.
When Li Jun saw it, his eyes gradually glowed with a strange light, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
This is my real home in the Three Kingdoms!
Li Jun suddenly felt that in fact, these three countries were quite good. If the world was unified, the people were happy, and the world was peaceful and prosperous, this would be a good place to spend the rest of his life.
This place is far away from the hustle and bustle of modern times. There is no traffic, no dust, smog and haze. There is only this picturesque and beautiful city in the south of the Yangtze River.
The two young servants who had installed the plaque saw Li Jun. Although they did not recognize him, they could tell his identity from Li Jun's majestic temperament. This person must be their master Li Jun.
"Greetings, Mr. Lang!"
The two servants hurriedly bowed to Li Jun.
"No need to be polite, just go about your own business." Li Jun waved to the two servants, and then led Xu Da up a few steps and entered the Li Mansion.
At this time, the Li Mansion was a busy scene. Men and women, servants and maids, holding brooms and towels in their hands, were rushing back and forth around, busy.
The sound of footsteps is endless, mixed with various sounds, which makes people feel refreshed and calm.
"Xu Heizi, from now on you will live with me in this new mansion. You can choose the rooms here yourself. Don't be polite."
Li Jun saw that the servants in the mansion were so busy that they didn't even know that his master was here. He only focused on the work in his hands. He didn't bother him, but said happily to Xu Da next to him.
"Li Shuai, you are so kind to me."
Xu Da was inexplicably happy and extremely moved in his heart.
"Since you have chosen to follow me, Li Jun, how can I let you have a hard time? Outside you are my general, but in this house, you are my brother. Do you understand?"
Li Jun patted Xu Da's broad, muscular arm with a solemn expression.
If Li Jun wants to be self-reliant and dominate the three kingdoms, how can he do it alone? He must have strong generals to fight for him and destroy the enemies.
And Xu Da, with his invincible bravery and superb martial arts skills, will be Li Jun's first general to dominate in troubled times.
Therefore, Li Jun must treat Xu Da kindly. Furthermore, after getting along with him for many days, Li Jun also likes this honest and honest Xu Da, especially his distinctive dark skin and his rough cheeks. With his beard and powerful muscles, the whole person looks indescribably intimidating. This is the unique appearance of a fierce general.
Li Jun did not wander around the mansion to visit, but went directly into the main hall, drank tea, and began to think about his future plans.
Today Liu Bei named himself Jingzhou Shepherd. This is not a reward.
Rather, he rose up and fell covertly, because Li Jun was the leader of the Bailian Army before and was a general with military power. Now, he has changed from a central general to a local patriarch. Although he also holds military power, Jingzhou has long been no longer the leader. A few years ago, it was Jingzhou during the time of Guan Yu.
Since Guan Yu was attacked by Lu Meng of Soochow and lost Jingzhou, the entire Jingzhou, except Nanyang County, which was still in the hands of Cao Wei, was captured by Soochow and became Soochow's territory.
At present, although the two countries of Shu and Wu have negotiated a peace, Soochow has recognized the three cities of Yiling, Zigui, and Yidao as belonging to the Shu Kingdom, but these are originally cities conquered by the Shu Kingdom. He has to admit that even if he does not admit it, these three cities are equal to Nanjun. From the Kingdom of Shu.
Therefore, except for Li Jun, who has a small place in Nanjun to rule, the entire Jingzhou area belongs to Soochow.
Jingzhou is located in the middle of the Three Kingdoms. It occupies the throat of the world and is an important military location in the world. And Nanjun is the place where the four battles are fought in the throat. It occupies a key position. There is Cao Wei in the north, Shu in the west, and Dongwu in the southeast. They will all face threats from their surroundings, and there are many dangers.
Especially there is a strong enemy in the north, Cao Wei, who is eyeing him. Now Liu Bei has captured Nanjun and successfully negotiated peace with Soochow. Although the war is over, how can Cao Wei sit idly by and let Liu Bei grow bigger.
Li Jun guessed that before long, Cao Wei would move south in large numbers and attack Nanjun.
Just after repelling the bloodthirsty wolf of Soochow, Cao Wei, a greedy tiger, was attracted.
This is really difficult for Li Jun. It is equivalent to Liu Bei giving Li Jun a hot potato, and this hot potato may be fatal to Li Jun.
Therefore, it is difficult for Li Jun to survive on his own, let alone be self-reliant.
The current situation is very bad. Li Jun must think of a countermeasure.
After thinking about it, Li Jun still had no clue, so he had to drink tea to relieve his boredom.
There is another major issue that Li Jun has not solved yet, which is how to solve the problem of Yiling's reconstruction. Since he is confident about taking over Yiling, he must find a way to solve it.
Rebuilding Yiling costs too much money. Li Jun wants money but has no money, so the matter can only be put on hold for the time being. The most important thing now is how to solve the problem of hunger and food and clothing for the people.
Only by rescuing people first can we have the manpower to rebuild. After all, rebuilding Yiling requires not only money, but also manpower.
In these troubled times, people are the greatest wealth capital. For example, Liu Bei fought with Cao Cao in Xuzhou in his early years and was defeated by Cao Cao. He lost Xuzhou and fled in a hurry. On the way to escape, he even took the people of Xuzhou City with him and his family. The one who wanted to go out and take refuge with Yuan Shao.
It can be seen from this that people are a huge wealth to all the princes. Even if you capture a city without a population, it is equivalent to getting an empty city with no value at all.
Therefore, Li Jun’s top priority is to find a way to solve the problem of food and clothing for the people.
However, Li Jun had nothing but the official title of Jingzhou Mu. Where could he find the money and food to solve the food problem in Yiling?
in my thoughts,
In Li Jun's mind, a figure flashed across his mind, and his eyes suddenly brightened.
