Chapter 48: Business comes

"You are ..." Looking at the rich middle-aged man in front of him, Liu Yi was puzzled, and originally thought it was Zhuge Liang, but the person in front was obviously not Kong Ming.
"East Sea Mi Zhu, have met Mr. Liu." Mi Zhu smiled at Liu Yi with a smile.
"It turned out to be Mr. Mi." Liu Yi also paid a hand and extended his hand: "Here is the wind, please ask Mr. to speak in the house."
Mi Zhu nodded and glanced a little curiously at that time. It was already a huge watermill for this era. The turbulent river water was obviously slower after passing the watermill. The water brought in by the water bucket Some of them don't know where to flow through the bamboo tube, and there are two high platforms on each side, like four bodyguards that hold the waterwheel, which is quite shocking.
"This is the Mojia organizing technique?" Finally, Mi Zhu couldn't help but asked curiously.
"The superficial work made Mr. laugh." Liu Yi nodded. This did involve some advanced Mohist ordination, especially with his ability to give these things attributes.
In addition to Mi Zhu, there is also a young man with a heroic spirit. The rest of them are dressed as guards, led by this young man.
"This is the general under the left of General Zuo, Liu Feng, and also the righteous son of General Zuo." Seeing Liu Yi's eyes on the youth, Mi Zhu explained with a smile.
"It turned out to be a major general, disrespectful." Liu Yi glanced at Liu Feng, nodded, and led a group of people into a nearby dwelling house. These days, he was mainly busy building the walled city and did not build a separate courtyard. Liu Yi or Lu Lingqi and Wei Yue are both in temporary residences.
After sitting down, Liu Yi looked at Mi Zhu and smiled, "I don't know if Mr. Mi is here, but Kong Ming has entrusted it?"
"Fei Ye." Mi Zhu shook his head and smiled, "Mr. Kong Ming did indeed entrust a letter to Mr. Xia, but in this case, he came on behalf of my Lord Uncle Liu Huang."
"Oh?" Liu Yi knelt on the straw mat and thought for a while: "I have a relationship with the uncle, but I don't know what the uncle asked me about?"
"Mr. know, Cao thief digs Xuanwu Lake in Yecheng to train the naval forces?" Mi Zhu smiled.
Liu had a toothache, just talk about anything, how to get to Cao Cao, nodded and said, "Slightly heard."
But to be honest, Liu Yi is very speechless about Cao Cao's practice. Even if you have to train the navy, how good it is to go to the Yellow River, you can train out with strong winds and waves. Digging a lake, the artificial lake is quiet, and what is the difference between fighting on land, both sides Knowing the roots and knowing the truth, and not being able to fight, just thinking about it, Liu Yi felt very fake.
"Cao Cao's training of the naval forces must have come to the south. Although Cao Cao was a powerful man, he was a Han thief. As a Han family ancestor, I couldn't imitate those who were inflamed and powerful, and I was determined to fight Cao Cai!" Said In the end, Mi Zhu's tone became passionate.
In fact, I really want to become more powerful.
Liu Yi kept a smile on his face, nodded and said, "Uncle Gao Yi, Yi admires."
So, what are you doing here?
"Although my Lord is determined to fight with Cao Thief, he is trapped in Xinye Town, not only a small number of soldiers, but also no weapons. My Lord heard that Mr. is a descendant of the Mo family, and he is more proficient in forging. Mr. negotiated to see if we could build a batch of weapons for my lord. "Mi Zhu smiled at Liu Yi.
"This ..." Liu Yi was very impressed. It was not that there was a business that didn't want to pick it up, but that Liu Run's biggest hobby was the empty-gloved white wolf, wouldn't he not want to give money?
Looked at Mi Zhu with some embarrassment: "Mr. Mi has no idea. Now that I am building a new city, materials and money are scarce. Now that I am just building a city, I am already stretched. It is really ..."
Who is Mi Zhu, but from a wealthy merchant background, naturally knowing Liu Yi's implication when he heard this, he immediately laughed: "Mr. rest assured, Zhu has shipped iron ingots, five baht, and millions of dollars, and then there are many good things. Wood will be served one after another. "
With money and good work, Liu Yi heard and immediately nodded: "If the materials are sufficient, it is possible, but I don't know how many weapons the uncle needs?"
Hear a lot of iron ingots. If you use a knife, you can hit a maximum of thirty or fifty. If you change to a long spear, you can hit a lot. If you save a little, you can use five hundred spears.
"Ten swords in the first ring, one hundred spears, one thousand arrows, one hundred shields, somehow?" Mi Zhu looked at Liu Yi and smiled.
There are not many things. Liu Yi figured it out, and the catty iron ingot was barely enough, and nodded immediately: "These things are not difficult, but they can't use millions of dollars, one hundred thousand is enough."
If you bring your own materials, you only need to pay a manual fee, you do n’t need a million. Although Liu Yi also wants to get the million, he knows that money is important, but his reputation is more important, which is also conducive to opening the Jingzhou market. .
"The remainder is considered to be an advance to Mr., my lord is now raising iron ingots, and I am afraid that he will have to help Mr. Uhou. UU reading books www.uukanshu.com" Mi Zhu smiled.
"No need." Liu Yi shook his head and said: "Without this rule, if his Japanese Uncle needs it, as long as there are enough money and money, he will do his best."
This money is not easy to get, don't think about calculating with these monarchs, it is definitely not calculated by others, it is still good for public affairs.
For a moment, Mi Zhu saw that Liu Yi was determined to refuse to overpay, not forgery, but had to give up. He ordered people to bring in 100,000 yuan of money and a thousand pounds of iron ingots. As for the amount of wood, there were too many. Yi is not in a hurry, anyway, the most important thing is the forging of iron, he can also use this opportunity to hone his casting skills.
"I don't know when these things can be completed?" Mi Zhu asked.
One hundred thousand yuan, if it is used to hire a hundred students ... Liu Yi thought about it for a while: "It would be ten days, it would be better to stay here as a sir, and after the completion of the work, take things back together?"
In fact, if you really hired 100 people, Liu Yi ’s current skill level can be done almost in a day, but that would be too shocking, so Liu Yi said that in ten days, the remaining money, you can hire more Some academic workers come to speed up the construction of the wall. If the wall is not erected, let alone ordinary people have no sense of security, Liu Yi doesn't have any. If someone really came over, only the three hundred gangsters of Lu Lingqi How much can it protect?
A sense of security is very important. This is also the reason why this city has not been able to leave too many people for so long. Jiang Xia did not get much benefit this time, but soon after, Cao Cao went south, Liu Yi must take this opportunity, a lot Attract the displaced people to come and surrender.
"Ten days?" Mi Zhu looked at Liu Yi with some surprise. After seeing Liu Yi's eyes, he smiled and nodded, "Since this is the case, then wait here for ten days."
