Chapter 81 Substitution
Lu Bu never knew that even if he occupied Xuzhou according to the original history, he would eventually be plotted by the aristocratic families in Xuzhou.
"Gongtai, I have already thought clearly. Don't worry about them, just do what is beneficial to us.
No matter what you do to them now, it will be in vain. If they are weak, they will add insult to injury.
But if we are strong and are not afraid of anyone in the world, even if we have done things that have wronged these families, they will still come over to show our kindness."
When Chen Gong heard these words, although he felt something was wrong in his heart, he could not refute it.
Because the example of Yanzhou is right there, there is no room for him to refute it.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Lu Bu's mouth, and a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes, "Gongtai, just go ahead and handle this matter. If anyone dares to stop it, tell me and let me handle it."
After hearing this, Chen Gong suddenly felt a little confused.
When Lu Bu was lured to Yanzhou, it was Cao Mengde who killed Yanzhou's famous people and gave way. However, he never thought that one day, Lu Bu would do the same thing.
When the time comes, will there be people like him and Zhang Miao in Xuzhou who will attract another person to drive away Lu Bu?
Lu Bu looked at Chen Gong's ugly face and sighed, "Gongtai, it is useless to think too much now. The only thing we can do is to regain our strength as soon as possible. Other than that, there is no other choice."
The wise Chen Gong also became hesitant at this moment.
"Marquis Wen, there is something wrong with this. It would be bad if they cause resistance!"
Lu Bu raised his head and looked at Chen Gong. After a long time, he sighed in his heart and said slowly.
"Gongtai, if you are tired, you should rest. I will let others handle this matter."
Hearing this, Chen Gong was surprised, and at the same time, his heart suddenly felt inexplicably relaxed.
In any case, he really didn't want to face those aristocratic families.
"Thank you, Marquis Wen."
Lu Bu waited until Chen Gong left, his brows gradually furrowed, and he was thinking quickly in his mind.
Chen Gong retreated, who should complete the measurement of the land?
After thinking for a long time, Lu Bu suddenly realized that there was no one available to him.
To do this, you must be someone you trust, who is strong-willed, and will not betray you just because it is for the good of your family.
Gao Shun!
Lu Bu thought for a long time, and finally found out helplessly that the only person who could do this was Gao Shun.
The rest of the people, such as Zhang Liao, are more than capable, and they may be less relaxed when facing aristocratic families.
Gao Shun is now guarding the coal. If he is transferred back to survey the land, who will be guarding the coal?
After a long time, Lu Bu raised his head and shouted to the door, "Come here, go find Gao Shun and Wei Yue."
Wei Yue was the younger brother of Wei Xu who was beheaded. Although they were from the same clan, Lu Bu was not worried that Wei Yue would betray him.
In contrast, Wei Xu is smart and changeable. Compared with him, Wei Yue is much calmer even though he is younger.
And in normal times, the relationship between the two is not good, and they don't even interact much. The most important thing is that when the two came to the army, it was not that one of them supported the other, but that they had nothing to do with each other.
Wei Yue fought bravely, and Lu Bu would lead him into battle almost every time.
Soon, Wei Yue and Gao Shun hurried from the military camp. When they saw Lu Bu, they hurriedly raised their hands and saluted, "General, I have met Marquis Wen."
Lu Bu waved his hand, turned to look at Gao Shun, and said solemnly, "General Gao, I originally wanted to send you to protect those black stones, but there is a more important thing that you need to do."
At this point, Lu Bu's tone paused, and Gao Shun did not take the opportunity to speak, but continued to listen silently.
"General Gao, I want you to go around and measure the land. Can you do it?"
Gao Shun bowed his hand and said concisely, "I will obey your orders."
Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "General Gao, this matter was originally done by the public, but there are many people who want to jump out and cause trouble. Therefore, I am going to measure the land. If anyone dares to make trouble, then you will be severely punished."
Disposal."
"The general will obey his orders."
Gao Shun still had nothing to say, but Lu Bu knew that as long as Gao Shun agreed, he would definitely be able to do it.
After Gao Shun left, Lu Bu turned to look at Wei Yue and told him what happened at the coal mine.
"General Wei, the coal matter is not a trivial matter. You lead the troops to defend it and don't allow anyone to mine it. In addition, you must keep it secret and try not to let more people know about it."
After hearing this, Wei Yue hurriedly handed over his hands and said, "I will obey your orders."
Lu Bu nodded, "In addition to guarding the coal, after Xu Si and the two have selected the clay, they will build a brick kiln. At that time, you will also protect the brick kiln and not allow anyone to approach."
As soon as Lu Bu finished speaking, there were hurried footsteps outside the door.
"Marquis Wen, Mr. Wenxing and Mr. Dexian would like to see you."
Lu Bu waved his hand hurriedly, "Let them come in quickly."
Soon, Xu Bang and Wang Kai walked in from the door, "I've met Marquis Wen."
Lu Bu asked hurriedly, "How did things go? Did you find clay?"
The two hurriedly handed over their hands and said, "Marquis Wen, clay is just an ordinary thing. There is a lot of clay not far from Lijiazhuang, and there is a lot of it, which is enough for use."
"Ha ha!"
Upon hearing the news, Lu Bu was immediately overjoyed, "That's great."
After saying this, Lu Bu took out a pamphlet, smiled at Xu Bang and said, "Dexian, here are the blueprints for building a brick kiln. You should immediately organize people to build it."
Xu Bang took the brochure and read it carefully, his eyes suddenly brightened, "Marquis Wen, the red bricks mentioned above are hard in texture and are most suitable for building houses. Could it be that Marquis Wen just wants to make red bricks?"
Lu Bu nodded and said solemnly, "Dexian, this matter is not trivial. Whether it is building a brick kiln or the technology of making red bricks, only a few of us here know about it. I hope you don't tell anyone."
Xu Bang looked at the serious expression on Lu Bu's face, his heart trembled, and he hurriedly handed over his hand, "Don't worry, Marquis Wen, I will definitely keep it a secret, even my family will not tell it."
Lu Bu nodded, "Dexian, this matter must be done quickly and cannot be delayed."
A trace of excitement flashed in Xu Bang's eyes, and he hurriedly handed over his hand, "Don't worry, Marquis Wen, I will do my best next time, and I will never let Marquis Wen down."
Lu Bu nodded, turned to look at Wang Kai, and said with a smile, "Wen Xing, there is another equally important task here. I hope you will keep it secret and don't let anyone know."
Wang Kai just saw Lu Bu assigning such an important task of firing red bricks to Xu Bang. Although he didn't say it, he was extremely jealous in his heart.
