Chapter 259 The Role of the Clay Figurine! 【Ask for Monthly Ticket】
"How is the literacy work in Bingzhou Army going?"
If you want to clean up the aristocratic family, you have to destroy their monopoly on knowledge, but you can't do it in a big way at the beginning, you have to do it secretly.
Upon hearing Li Yu's inquiry, Lu Bu said:
"Now it has been very effective. Statistics from the past two days show that 87% of the students have mastered simple reading and writing. The literacy rate is above the team rate. The literacy rate is 100%. Commonly used Chinese characters can basically be read and written smoothly. "
Holy shit, that’s awesome!
If they secretly organize manpower to open literacy classes for the common people, it will definitely be a heavy blow to the family that monopolizes knowledge.
But it was still difficult at the beginning. We had to find a way to quietly open a breakthrough in Chang'an, so as to surprise the aristocratic families.
And the breakthrough that can play this role is... the refugees outside Chang'an City!
Li Yu said:
"When the Xiliang Army completes its rectification, organize the refugees outside the city to start working in the fields. When the factory is built, recruit them as workers and secretly conduct literacy classes... Cultivate intellectuals from the workers and the army to break the monopoly of aristocratic families!"
Lu Bu took a bite of the orange, and it was so sour that he grinned. Seeing Qin Qiong concentrating on eating the pie, he handed over the remaining oranges:
"Second brother, try it later. It's sweet and sour, and it'll supplement your vitamins."
"Thank you, Marquis Wen!"
After tricking Qin Qiong, Lu Bu said:
"Mr. Wen He has already made preparations, and he specifically emphasized that Xun You and Zhong Yao should not be informed. Those two are typical nobles. After learning about this matter, they may have other thoughts. It will not be too late to announce it when the deal is settled. .”
The best executors of this secret mission are naturally Sun Facai and his wife.
In fact, after the Xiliang Army was cleared of the city, Sun Facai and Cai Yan's porridge sheds were reopened, and the Bingzhou Army also issued some relief measures.
Such as repairing city walls, dredging waterways, repairing roads, etc.
The aristocratic families in the city actually complained about this. However, it was not the imperial court that issued the order, but the Bingzhou Army. Even if they had opinions, they did not dare to express them openly. Otherwise, if Dong Zhuo was labeled as having an affair, his family would be destroyed. .
Li Yu thought that it was only the end of March in the Three Kingdoms world, and it was completely in time for planting, so he said to Lu Bu:
"Hurry up and find a place to farm, and try to plant food within a month. Otherwise, there will be widespread famine before winter comes."
"Don't worry, dear brother, we are already making preparations for this... By the way, have you finished planting the grain in Muke Village? Can you lend us some tractors?"
This is of course no problem, but just a tractor is not enough, right?
At least a few more skilled tractor drivers must be sent to the Three Kingdoms World so that they can better devote themselves to the planting work.
Another poacher from Muke Village... Li Yu said:
"Okay, I'll call Guiying over later and tell her about this. I'll also ask Muke Village to prepare some sweet potato seedlings."
Now the sweet potatoes in Muke Village are growing well, and they can be planted directly by cutting some vines.
But this alone is not enough. You have to buy a batch from the real world. Now is the season for planting sweet potatoes. I am searching around and ordering hundreds of thousands of acres of sweet potato seedlings should be no problem.
Sweet potato seedlings, potato sprouts, corn seeds, taro...all high-yielding crops can be planted to highlight the diversity of crops.
During this period, let Muke Village and Qilin Village support the Bingzhou Army with some food as much as possible.
Of course, Lu Bu also had to purchase grain from aristocratic families, and by the way, he would crack down on the merchants in Chang'an City who were driving up grain prices. He would first kill the chickens to scare the monkeys. If that didn't work, he would directly use the grain from Muke Village to dump the grain.
Li Yu sat in front of the computer and wrote down all these plans and saved them as documents so as not to look back and forget them.
It just so happens that the procedures for the agricultural supplies company have to be completed recently. When the time comes, we will first get some fertilizer seeds to support a wave of the Three Kingdoms world, and then let Liu Xie lead the officials to pray to the empress, first for a wave of rain, and then for a victory in the war.
When the empress showed up, all the officials naturally did not dare to look down on Liu Xie anymore.
After Qin Qiong finished eating the flatbread, she wiped her hands with a wet paper towel. Then she picked up the orange that Lu Bu had peeled and tasted it. She immediately grinned with sourness:
"No wonder Marquis Wen gave it to Brother Yu to eat. This orange is so sour."
He looked at the remaining half and was about to eat it with a frown when Mu Guiying ran in. When he saw the orange, he snatched it away without any explanation:
"Haha, thank you, Brother Qin. My little sister is just trying to take some vitamins... Wow, is this too sour?"
Li Yu: "..."
I asked you to rob everything in sight. Are you being punished now?
Qin Qiong didn't expect Mu Guiying's hands to be so fast:
"Brother Yu was just planning to stay and drink some water... Sister Guiying, there are so many talented people in Muke village now, can you transfer a few to the world of Sui and Tang Dynasties?"
The word "adjustment" is like changing a major in college.
But in fact, all talent exchanges are one-way. Once you come, you can't go back, and if you go, you can't come back.
Mu Guiying did not expect that the talent trade would be launched so soon:
"No problem. Second brother Qin, how many people do you want? If the brothers in the village know that they can follow Mr. Qin, they will probably write a bloody letter to sign up."
Unexpectedly, Qin Qiong's appeal was so strong. Lu Bu couldn't help but ask:
"If you follow me in the Three Kingdoms world, will someone write a bloody letter?"
Mu Guiying grinned and swallowed a piece of lime, nodded and said:
"I can write well, and I can write blood letters to recommend others... Marquis Wen's reputation in history is not very good, and everyone doesn't understand it, so... but it doesn't matter, I will introduce it to them again."
If you don't know how to speak, don't speak... Lu Bu laughed twice:
"It's okay. You can promote others, such as Zhuge Liang, and follow Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms world. There should be many people interested."
Li Yu wrote the plan, took Li Shimin's letter, and conveyed the request.
Mu Guiying waved her hand:
"Okay, okay, no problem, these talents are all available in Muke Village... Marquis Wen wants a tractor driver, right? This is no problem, I will arrange it as soon as possible."
After the girl finished speaking, she picked up a ballpoint pen and carefully wrote it down on a piece of paper.
Lu Bu asked:
"Xianmei, what price do we have to pay?"
Mu Guiying originally wanted to talk about talent exchange, but then she thought about the slow flow of time in the Three Kingdoms world. By the time they train talents, the talents in Muke Village may have already completed the iteration.
Thinking of this, she said with a smile:
"Marquis Wen, please find a female general for my little sister. Now I am the only one working hard in Muke Village, which is quite laborious. It would be great if there is a female general to share the burden."
When Lu Bu heard this, he agreed:
"No problem, I will personally find a suitable female general for the Brotherhood to accompany you."
After talking about the contract in the Three Kingdoms World, Mu Guiying said to Qin Qiong:
"I have three conditions: borrowing one for two, sharing technology, and a female general... I don't know who my fiancé is yet, so I can't make him jealous."
Muke Village will expand greatly in the future. Not only will it need talents, but also a few generals, so that it can stabilize all directions.
Li Yu carefully recalled:
"Are there any famous female generals in "The Legend of Xing Tang"?"
Lu Bu smiled and said:
"It doesn't seem to be in the book, but you have forgotten that there were some very good fighters in history. Li Sanniang, as a member of the Li family, it shouldn't be a big problem to help Sister Guiying guard Muke Village."
As soon as he heard this, Li Yu thought of Chai Shao's wife, the female general who helped Li Tang conquer many kingdoms - Princess Pingyang!
After he reminded them like this, everyone remembered that, yes, there was such a master.
Mu Guiying thought of Diao Chan feeding fruit to Li Yu at every turn, so she broke off an orange segment and quietly put it to Li Yu's mouth to see if he would eat it.
Li Yu was thinking about Princess Pingyang at the moment. He opened his mouth and actually ate it, and then he felt a sour feeling rushing straight to his forehead.
"Hahaha, sir, do you think I am Fairy Little Cicada?"
Mu Guiying's plot succeeded, and she was worried that Li Yu would be angry, so she quickly stuffed the remaining orange segment into her mouth to accompany him.
After the talent exchange plan between the two sides was agreed upon, Qin Qiong hurried back and prepared to leave for Taiyuan. Lu Bu was also preparing to leave. He had to go back to have a meeting with Jia Xu and couldn't play here all the time.
After the others left, Mu Guiying slid the computer chair to Li Yu and whispered:
"Sir, Xixia sent fifty kilograms of gold in the hope that the fourth prince could be buried in peace. This is the emperor's son, so just throw it away like this?"
The most ruthless emperor's family... Li Yu said helplessly:
"Emperors usually have a lot of children, and the death of one or two is nothing. And generally speaking, legitimate sons who are not born to the queen are not qualified to compete for the position of heir apparent."
For example, Li Shimin gave birth to dozens of children, but his favorite successors were only the three brothers Li Zhi, Li Tai, and Li Chengqian, the sons of Empress Changsun. No matter how outstanding the other children were, it was useless.
Fifty pounds of gold can buy a prince's life, which is a good business.
Li Yu asked:
"How did the fourth prince react?"
"I smiled bitterly for a while, drank a bowl of high-strength liquor, and cried for a while. I was already asleep when I came here just now, and I guess I will have a new transformation when I wake up."
Well, when you wake up again, there is a high probability that you will become the Fourth Prince Niu Gulu.
This is just right. The more disappointed you are, the more powerful your destructive power will be.
When the matter is over, go directly to the world of Sui and Tang Dynasties to join Li Shimin and stay away from that sad place.
"I thought the bandits were ruthless and ruthless enough, but I didn't expect that compared with the royal family, we are all extremely ruthless... Do I need to be so ruthless when I become the emperor in the future?"
Bandit Mu looked melancholy, and suddenly felt that he, a bandit, looked so amateur compared with the royal family.
Finally realized the essence of imperial power... Li Yu smiled, took out some ready-to-eat glutinous rice balls from the drawer next to him and handed them to Mu Guiying:
"The emperor is the biggest bandit leader, but it's hard to say whether you will become like this... Try this, I like it very much."
Seeing that there was delicious food, Mu Guiying's mood came and went quickly. She tore open a packet and stuffed it into her mouth:
"It's delicious. It's as glutinous as the little cicada fairy."
Li Yu:? ? ? ? ? ? ?
Has "little cicada" become an adjective for you?
Eating glutinous rice balls can actually remind me of Diao Chan... a waxy little girl. I really want to pinch her face when I say this.
After Mu Guiying finished eating, she carried two boxes of ready-to-eat glutinous rice balls back.
There are things that need to be dealt with in the village, and the work that requires tractors must be completed quickly to support the opening up of wasteland in the Three Kingdoms World. These tractors will not be back in a short time.
At noon, just after Li Yu had lunch, Diao Chan suddenly pulled him into a small group of only three people.
"Sir, Sister Zhou, I've finished painting my concubine."
After sending the message, Diao Chan sent all the animals representing officials at all levels to the group. Judging from the style, they were really similar to the Chilongs from the Qin and Han Dynasties.
If this is carved, it will definitely be in the same style as the Chuanguo Jade Seal.
Just as he was about to praise him, he thought of the red spots on Professor Zhou's waist and waited for a moment.
In less than a minute, Zhou Ruotong sent a voice message:
"It's so beautiful. This technique is really good. My uncle has some damaged paintings from the Han Dynasty. Xiaochan can try to repair them in the future."
Seeing Professor Zhou speak, Li Yu also sent a series of thumbs-up emoticons:
"It's so beautiful, I almost want to get an official position."
The two people praised each other like this, which made the little girl feel a little embarrassed:
"I'm still in a much worse state. Sister Zhou wants to restore the paintings of the Han Dynasty. Why not send them to the Three Kingdoms world and let Mr. Cai Yong do it?"
After saying this, Zhou Ruotong also reacted:
"Yes, you can send some damaged paintings to that world. If you are lucky, you can even find the person involved. Thank you, Xiaochan, for giving me a good idea."
Li Yu was more concerned about this girl's lunch:
"Have you been painting all this time and haven't eaten yet?"
"I'll go eat later. My classmates said there's a spicy hotpot diagonally across the street that's very delicious. I plan to try it."
Zhou Ruotong said:
"Then go ahead. If it tastes good, take me back to try it too."
"Okay Sister Zhou, I'm leaving!"
Li Yu originally wanted to post a kiss emoticon in the group, but thinking that this behavior might be rewarded with a seven-day trip to the hospital, he decided not to do it for the time being.
He clicked on Professor Zhou's profile picture and sent him a hug and a kiss.
Then he told about the land reclamation in the Three Kingdoms World.
Zhou Ruotong originally thought that this guy was thinking about kissing me and me, so he was about to hit him a few times, but he didn't expect that it was serious business, so he said:
"I plan to buy another batch of tractors, and I will also buy a batch of seeds and fertilizers in the near future, so as not to delay agricultural production there."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, wife."
"It's nothing. I just hope that the people over there can fill their bellies as soon as possible."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Ruotong thought of the clay figurine given by Emperor Xuanyuan and was a little curious:
"I plan to go to the B&B to check it out. I'll also say hello to my empress and bring her a few cups of new flavored milk tea."
"Okay, I'm looking forward to seeing my wife!"
Not long after, Professor Zhou came.
The two of them first went to the vault to look at the wooden box and clay figurines given by Emperor Xuanyuan. Zhou Ruotong couldn't see the material at all, and the wood had no patterns.
The clay figurine, on the other hand, has a strong primitive style and looks like something that only existed in ancient times.
She put on gloves and carefully studied it for a long time, but she couldn't figure out the reason.
I want to scrape some soil and take it back for testing, but I am worried about destroying this hard-won ancient cultural relic... I will ask the empress in my heart later, she should know.
After studying the clay figurine, he then looked at the gift that Li Shimin asked Fan Hu to send. Li Yu used some dry lips as an excuse to rub some of Professor Zhou's lipstick, and then Professor Zhou rubbed it back.
The two kissed each other for about ten minutes before leaving the safe and carrying milk tea that was almost melting with ice cubes to go to the scenic spot to see the empress.
"Don't think about anything. The more confused your thoughts are, the more you will know."
When they were approaching the statue, Li Yu gave a reminder.
In the end, it was a good thing that he didn't remind him. With this reminder, Professor Zhou's mind kept flashing the scene of kissing in the vault, so that when he walked to the statue, the empress who was eating instant glutinous rice balls immediately turned off the TV:
"Is the beginning so exciting?"
I hope my wife won’t expose her secret... Li Yu asked for advice in his heart:
"Emperor Xuanyuan gave me a little clay figure, saying it would be useful in the future. What is this?"
There was gentleness in the empress’ voice:
"It's a gadget that will help you. You may need it in the future, but it's best not to use it, because using this villain will herald the death of a god..."
"What's the meaning?"
"This was the first clay figurine I made back then. My brother Fuxi later gave it to Xuanyuan, but I didn't expect it to be in your hands again."
Li Yu was stunned:
"Is this used to resurrect people?"
"No, it's for resurrecting gods. Ordinary people can't bear this kind of blessing. Only gods can... Keep it for now. There's almost no chance of using it in these worlds."
So that’s it, let’s keep it for now.
After the National Jade Seal and the Gold-Inlaid Jade Buddha, the B&B has another mission item, but I don’t know when it will be triggered.
While the two were chatting, Zhou Ruotong was also communicating with the empress in his mind.
But compared to Li Yu's casualness, her daughter-in-law was much more respectful, and even asked questions carefully. The more she watched, the more she liked it:
"Don't be nervous. Just form a question in your mind if you want to ask it. I'll answer it... If this brat bullies you in the future, he must tell me and I'll take it out on you."
"Thanks."
Arriving in front of the statue, Zhou Ruotong bowed with milk tea before sitting down.
The empress, like an old mother whose silly son brings his girlfriend home, took the initiative and asked:
"Which world does Tongtong want to see? I will share it with you now."
"Let's take a look at Guiying first. I haven't seen what Muke Village looks like yet."
As soon as Zhou Ruotong finished speaking, a picture appeared in his mind. In a place with beautiful scenery, Mu Guiying, wearing a baseball cap, sunglasses and Bluetooth headphones, was driving an excavator to dig ditches while shaking his head.
Behind the excavator, several men dressed in camouflage uniforms were cleaning the floating soil in the ditch.
Recently, a new piece of farmland has been reclaimed, about several thousand acres of land. As long as this canal is connected, those thousands of acres of land will have a stable source of irrigation water.
Seeing Mu Guiying's happy look, Zhou Ruotong couldn't help but laugh:
"I didn't expect Guiying to be so happy in Muke Village...Thank you for sharing the scene, can you take a look at the world of gods now?"
"No problem, I'll switch it to you right away."
As soon as the empress finished speaking, the picture in Zhou Ruotong's mind changed to another strange world. There were gods flying in the sky. Many people on the ground were three or four meters tall. Above the tall Chaoge City, one could see A huge peacock was casting his magic, and the entire city was enveloped in five-color light.
"This is...Kong Xuan?"
"Yes, he is Kong Xuan, the newly appointed national advisor of the Shang Dynasty. He is purifying the whole city of snakes, insects, rats, and ants."
The empress explained patiently, and just as she was about to turn the scene to the palace, an old man with a white beard and hair suddenly raised his head in confusion, and his forehead suddenly split open, revealing an eye, which shocked Zhou Ruotong:
"Three eyes? Isn't he just Master Wen?"
"It's Wen Zhong who dares to scare my daughter-in-law. I'll deal with him later!"
The magical scenes in his mind opened Zhou Ruotong's eyes wide, and he unconsciously tightened his grip on Li Yu's hand.
Bad guy, thank you for showing me these wonderful worlds...
