Chapter 6 Everyone looks like a craftsman
Although Li Qi likes the Three Kingdoms, he does not know every character from the Three Kingdoms period. Especially this Li Quan, who seemed to have died early and he had never heard of it.
But the aristocratic background that comes to your door is not for nothing!
Li Qi ordered: "Low-key, low-key!"
Meng Gongwei nodded quickly, this matter must be kept low-key.
Meng Gongwei was very puzzled at the beginning. He did not believe that an ordinary civilian could carry out land reform and make inventions. It turned out that he was the descendant of Li Quan, a wealthy family in Yizhou.
Thinking about it this way, a lot of doubts have been solved!
Li Quan originally belonged to a wealthy family in Fu County, Zitong County. He once served as the head of Linqiong County. In the fifth year of Zhongping (i.e. 188 AD), Liu Yan, the state pastor, entered Shu. In order to frighten the counties in Yizhou, he killed Li Quan on pretexts, which then triggered the
Ren Qi and Jia Long's Rebellion.
Now Yizhou is still within the sphere of influence of Liu Zhang, the son of Liu Yan. Since Li Qi escaped from Yizhou, it would be better not to take any action.
After drinking the wine, Meng Gongwei reminded him kindly: "I don't think it's appropriate for County Magistrate Li to allocate fields to farmers."
Meng Gongwei was a wise hermit, but later he could no longer hide himself, and he also became the governor of Liangzhou and the general who conquered the east.
So Li Qi also wanted to hear his opinion: "Would you like to hear the details?"
Meng Gong said with authority: "Liu Jingsheng controls nine counties in Jingzhou and has strong troops and horses. He still relies on the support of the local wealthy families. It would be better for you to attack the local tyrants and divide the fields. If this matter spreads, wouldn't you put yourself on the opposite side of the wealthy families?"
Li Qidao: "Brother Gongwei, do you have any misunderstanding about wealthy families? Where do the wealthy families come from in this part of the ancient city?"
Meng Gong said in awe: "Do you want to stay in the ancient city and not go out? Even if you don't go out, you have set a precedent for dividing the land and ruined the Chao Gang. It will be difficult for the higher ups to tolerate you. Now Cao Mengde can't spare any time. Wait for him
If I win the battle in Guandu, I will deal with you when I come back."
Li Qi asked: "Yuan Shao has an army of 700,000, do you think Cao Cao can win?"
Meng Gongwei said: "It's hard to say, but I heard from a friend of Boling that Yuan Shao was very indecisive and gave him too many ideas. He didn't know whose ideas to use. On the other hand, Cao Mengde, although suspicious, but
Major military matters must be resolved as soon as possible and never be delayed. I think that although Yuan Shao is more powerful, he is definitely not Cao Mengde's opponent."
Li Qi asked again: "So from the perspective of public authority, how should I handle the matter of dividing the land?"
Meng Gongwei said: "This is extremely easy! Give the small landowners you killed a few charges. The bigger the charge, the better. It's best to be a rebel or something. Then you find an opportunity to take back the land that was allocated and give it to the court.
Senior officials. In this way, not only can you be exempted from guilt, but you can also gain connections and obtain official appointments from the imperial court."
Li Qi secretly sighed, Zhuge Liang's friends are indeed not fuel-efficient lamps.
Meng Gongwei was right. He had been hasty at first. He was afraid that he would not be able to stand in the ancient city, so he made this decision.
However, this matter is not rushed. The most important thing for him now is to make money to support his troops. Even if he goes elsewhere in the future, it can still be regarded as his bargaining chip.
Li Qi looked at Meng Gongwei's smiling eyes and said, "Let's not talk about other things for now. Brother Gongwei has traveled far and wide and has a wide network of contacts. I have a batch of good farm tools here. Can you help me sell them?"
Meng Gongwei said solemnly: "I regard the county magistrate as my friend, who do you think I am? I am a hermit, how can I..."
Li Qi: "One-tenth of the transaction amount belongs to Brother Gongwei."
Meng Gongwei: "Good!"
…
Li Qi became more and more proficient in equestrian skills. He was still not good at fighting on horseback, but escaping on horseback must be faster than his own two legs.
After practicing for a few laps on the school field, Zhang San suddenly came to report that General Zhang Fei was back and had brought people with him.
Li Qi was stunned and thought, not so fast, right?
Moreover, Liu Bei's goal in going south was to meet Liu Pi and Gong in Runan. The reason why he met Guan and Zhang in the ancient city was purely because Zhang Fei was here. But his time travel changed this matter. Zhang Fei was not in the ancient city.
, why are they still coming to the ancient city?
Li Qi suddenly felt a little frightened when he thought of Liu Bei's magical attribute of "mountain can fall if he relies on him, and he can run if he relies on everyone".
While he was wondering, Zhang Fei had already rushed to Li Qi: "Zhenghong, Zhenghong..."
Zhang Fei shouted twice excitedly, but hesitated.
Li Qi asked: "Did Yide find the whereabouts of the emperor's uncle?"
Zhang Fei said: "No, I have something I want to discuss with you."
Li Qi asked: "What's the matter?"
Zhang Fei said: "This time I went north to look for my brother. When I passed through Li County, I met a woman from a good family and planned to marry her."
Li Qi was stunned for a long time: "What a good thing! Congratulations to Yide!"
At this time, Li Qicai discovered that a pretty girl of thirteen or fourteen years old followed Zhang Fei's entourage into the school grounds.
Zhang Fei called out: "I haven't come to see Magistrate Li yet."
The girl timidly saluted and said, "Xia Houjuan has met the county magistrate."
Li Qi hurriedly said: "I don't dare to take it, I don't dare to take it."
Xia Houyuan's niece is at least a second-generation ministerial official in the 21st century. She is a fake county magistrate, so there is no way she can succeed.
After all, Xia Houjuan was from a famous family and a lady. Zhang Fei meant that he should not be too hasty and use the ancient city to get married.
Without saying a word, Li Qi ordered the county government to put up lanterns and colors and prepare a banquet.
Zhang San found an opportunity and said to Li Qi privately: "Brother Zhenghong, I think there is something fishy about this matter?"
Li Qi asked: "What's strange?"
Zhang Sandao: "Look, this girl's surname is Xiahou, which is the same as Cao Cao's generals Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan. I suspect that she is a spy sent by the officers and soldiers."
Li Qi: "..."
Has this guy been stimulated in any way?
Why do you think everyone looks like a craftsman?
Li Qidao: "How many times have I told you that your duty is to collect information for me to analyze, and you are prohibited from jumping to conclusions!"
Zhang San retreated.
Liu Bei and Cao Cao are now at odds with each other, but Zhang Fei married the Xiahou family, which was indeed a bit reckless. However, in ancient times, it was believed that when you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, and when you marry a dog, follow the dog, and ordinary women have no say.
But then again, it was precisely because Xia Houjuan married Zhang Fei that Xia Houyuan would have a burial place in the future! I don’t know whether Xia Houyuan should cry or laugh about this matter.
Zhang Fei and Xia Houjuan got married that night, not to mention the bridal chamber, but Li Qi felt that the sound insulation effect of Han Dynasty buildings was still a bit poor.
I originally thought that Zhang Fei would live peacefully in the ancient city for a few days after marrying his darling wife. Unexpectedly, early the next morning, he would clamor to find his brother and ask Li Qi to help take care of his sister-in-law. It was really unreasonable!
Li Qi was convinced and advised: "Aren't you too irresponsible? Just one day after marrying your wife, you have to go away, and you are using yourself as a prostitute..."
Zhang Fei: "What's prostitution for?"
Li Qi: "General Hussars!"
Zhang Fei: "???"
Although he didn't understand, Li Qi's words were not completely unreasonable, so Zhang Fei planned to stay in the ancient city for a few more days.
While they were talking, Zhang San came to report that the imperial court had sent envoys to collect grain.
Zhang Fei said angrily: "Collect his mother's food, wait until I go and stab that guy to death with a spear!"
Having said that, Zhang Fei went back to his room to get his Zhang Ba Snake Spear. If you like traveling through the Three Kingdoms, please collect it from the beginning: The Falling Grass Becomes a Bandit.
