Five days later, Cao Fang arrived. He was originally a lieutenant, just a omnipotent clerk, who would go wherever he had something to do.

Although he is Lu Bu's elder brother-in-law, his lord is the lord and his courtesy cannot be abolished.

After participating, Liu Zhubo showed Cao Fang the plan he had sorted out, and Cao Fang was stunned after seeing it.

It is a good thing to acquire dried seafood and set up a canning factory, and it is also a good thing to expand Lianyun Shipyard, but this ten thousand acres of salt fields is a problem.

"Lord, there are thousands of acres of salt farms in Xia Pi. The most important thing in Xuzhou is salt. A mu of salt farms per acre per acre of 2,000 kilograms per acre, and ten thousand acres that is 20 million kilograms. If the management is good, it will be over. What do we need so much salt to do?" Cao Fang was a little puzzled.

"Xuzhou salt is cheap, but other places are expensive, such as Jizhou, Yanzhou, Youzhou, Bingzhou, Liangzhou. The salt is expensive, more than ten or even twenty cents per pound. We sell it in large quantities, and the profit is higher in the middle. Further west and north, there are too many nomadic peoples on the grassland, and they all need salt."

"Okay, I'm short-skinned." Cao Fang said.

Cao Fang's personality is similar to Lu Su, the kind of loyal and honest elder.

He did what he said, and Lu Bu fully supported him, and he was rich in money and food. He transferred tens of thousands of people to build the salt field.

Lianyun County ended with only three items: salt, fish, and shipbuilding. Because it was close to the seaside, although the fishermen had the habit of farming, they did not grow much.

When Lu Bu returned to Xuzhou, all the wheat outside Xuzhou city had been harvested, but unfortunately, the summer and autumn grains this year had been collected in advance and could no longer be collected.

The 20,000 acres of potatoes in the military farm have been dug, and the newly planted corn is only a few centimeters high, which is in sharp contrast with the corn planted in spring.

There are many straw mats next to the vegetable field, and hundreds of women are drying vegetables there.

All kinds of leafy vegetables are cut and spread on straw mats to dry. The summer sun is round and round, just like oil cakes, and it will be dried in one day.

"Xu." Lu Bu got off the Red Rabbit Horse and came to the drying yard.

The women were busy with their own things, back and forth without any idleness.

Qin Yilu came out from somewhere: "Lord, the green vegetables have dried and have been tens of thousands of kilograms. They are still stored now. There are vegetables to eat in winter."

"It's okay not to fight, but the consumption is huge once the war is going to cost. This is not enough. How is it going on recently? Is spring corn ripe?"

"Spring corn can be eaten, but it is not ripe. The military advisors consider retaining seeds and are not allowed to eat them. The peppers and garlic are ripe, especially the peppers are very high in yield, red and green, which looks good. But this is a ingredient after all, and there are a lot of planting in the vegetable fields of each camp, and there are a lot of leftovers."

"Can there be any remaining things left? Process it, order a batch of ceramic bottles and fill it with two kilograms of large-mouthed bottles."

"How much do you have to do?"

"First ten thousand bottles, it is estimated that 500 acres of peppers will cost hundreds of thousands of bottles."

"I don't understand how my lord wants to process it. Is it drying and pickled vegetables with salt?" Qin Yilu asked.

"Chop green chili, red chili, and garlic, marinate with salt, bottle and seal it, and it can be stored for five or six months. It is fine to eat it during war, and the meal is very good. You make the bottle first, and I will see who will be responsible for the arrangements." Lu Bu arranged it.

"It's so spicy that it's terrible to think about it." Qin Yilu didn't dare to eat spicy food.

"Spring corn is not as good as summer corn, so don't keep it. I will sell it one after another to a camp. When the corn is cooked, just peel it and cook it. Remember to take the corn peel to the farm to feed the sheep."

"Okay lord."

After Lu Bu arranged for a ride, he went home.

In the past, Lu Bu would go back to the military camp first, but today is an exception because a newcomer came to his home, Xiang Yan.

Yan is his wife, Cao is also his wife, and Diao Chan is his concubine.

Diao Chan has many congenital deficiencies. First of all, she is a dancer and has a very poor background. After marrying Lu Bu, she did not have the support of her mother's family, unlike her two wives who had the support of her mother's family.

Lu Bu married his concubine to his family in advance, but in this year, women had no say in their own way and had no choice but to accept it.

The wedding was held very frugal, and only middle and senior officials from Xuzhou army were invited.

Xiang Yan has passed away. This girl is wild and has a strong spirit in the world. In addition, she is a newlywed.

Lu Bu went to Xiang Yan's place for several days and spent the night, and came back that afternoon.

Xiang Yan looked very aggrieved.

Lu Bu asked: "What's wrong with Boss Yan?"

Xiang Yan ignored people and turned around.

Lu Bu also guessed who he was quarreling with, but this girl is weird and may not lose.

Lu Bu came out and called Lu Ling.

"What happened at home today?"

Lu Ling looked at Lu Bu with an incurable expression and said, "It's all my fault for marrying so many women. How can we not quarrel if there are so many people? This afternoon, Si Niang was looking for watermelon in the back garden, and Sanniang was there too.

Si Niang found a watermelon that was cut into raw, and Sanniang laughed at Si Niang as a wild girl who grew up by the sea, and the two started arguing. Their respective girls also quarreled with each other, and my mother gave her a drink to her."

"Okay, dad understand. Go and exercise."

Lu Bu returned to the study and thought about it. This person just couldn't be idle, and it was a matter when he was idle.

Diao Chan and Xiang Yan are both very strong and energetic than ordinary men. If they don’t find something to let them do, they will not overturn their homes.

Thinking of this, Lu Bu came to Diao Chan's room.

Before he entered the door, he heard Diao Chan crying and complaining, saying, "I knew you would come and criticize me. Look at her appearance, it's only a few days before, and I didn't take me seriously at all. Isn't there just a few people in my mother's family?"

Diao Chan has a congenital deficiency and no one in her family, so she only relies on Lu Bu.

This woman is a veteran of the romantic scene. Since she has married her, what else can she say?

Lu Bu said: "My wife misunderstood. I came here just to discuss some things for you."

"What did you call me just now?"

"Madam, from today on, you will be the third wife. But now Xuzhou is in trouble, you know that everyone is working hard. I plan to set up a workshop, you will be responsible for supervision, and do something for everyone to see." Lu Bu said.

Diao Chan was very happy when she heard this and said, "Okay, okay. What workshop."

Lu Bu gestured with his hands as a knife and said, "Chop pepper sauce to prepare food for soldiers."

"Can women be supervisors?" Diao Chan was a little incredible. Women from ordinary wealthy families were not working, let alone the wife of the governor.

"There is a large mansion in the backyard, which is relatively spacious and bright, and has well water. A few days later, I will arrange for 100 women to be managed by you and make chopped pepper sauce." Lu Bu said.

"But I can't do it, let alone manage it." Diao Chan said worriedly.

"It's okay, I'll teach you how to make chopped pepper sauce and then teach you how to manage it."
