Hearing what Liu Xin said, Wang Qingxun nodded. As the most prominent family in Youzhou, the Lu family has direct connections with the imperial court. Lu Zhi is now very popular. According to this situation, it is not impossible to rank among the three nobles in the future.

"This city is getting more and more unsafe. There have been several midnight robberies in the past few days. The county magistrate has increased the intensity of patrols at night, but various things still happen every day.

I don’t have anyone I can trust, so if you send a few more people with high martial arts skills from your village, I’m afraid the city will become more and more difficult to control in the future.” Wang Qingxun said.

"In the afternoon, I will send two powerful servants to guard the courtyard. They can be used with confidence. Then I will send 6 more capable servants. If anything happens in this city, you can take Xiaohua directly to my courtyard in the south of the city.

Avoid, I will find a way to save you." Liu Xin said.

Wang Qingxun nodded. It was a luxury to hope to survive safely in these troubled times. It was the same outside the city and inside the city. Liu Xin knew that the three Zhang Jiao brothers would be executed by the end of this year, but he could not say this to Wang Qingxun.

"There have been a lot of things going on in Zhangjiazhuang recently. The young owner of the village spent tens of millions of his family property to buy weapons and armor. Liu Bei called all the knights and martyrs from all over the village to the village. The village's food consumption is very large. If this continues, the village may not be able to carry the food.

It’s time for the autumn harvest. The farm owner is having a headache!

The young village owner has already found people to sell all the shops, yards, and even the fields in the city. It's a pity that rich people will buy land and shops at this time. My cloth village has been out of business for a few days!

"Wang Qingxun looked at Liu Xin and said.

"This young village owner is determined to recruit soldiers to suppress the rebellion, and the village owner also supports him. If the village owner sells this cloth village, Uncle Wang, have you ever thought of buying it?" Liu Xin asked.

.

"It's hard to do business in these troubled times. It's getting more and more difficult to purchase goods. This cloth shop can't make much money," Wang Qingxun said.

"It costs a lot to recruit soldiers. The young village owner is determined to follow Liu Bei and build a business. Sooner or later, the shops in this city will be sold. If this cloth village disappears, Uncle Wang, do you plan to return to Zhangjiazhuang?" Liu Xin

asked.

"I haven't considered this for the moment!" Wang Qingxun lowered his head and said.

"This is what I think. If Uncle Wang buys the cloth village, it can be considered a living in the city. I want to quietly buy more yards in the city, take advantage of the low housing prices, and then quietly recruit disaster victims to expand my strength.

When Taipingdao is suppressed, our strength will definitely surprise everyone." Liu Xin looked at Wang Qingxun and said quietly.

"Recruiting disaster victims requires food. Where do you get the food to feed the victims?" Wang Qingxun asked in confusion.

"I have something. One acre of land can produce a hundred stones of grain!" Liu Xin whispered.

"What is so magical?" Wang Qingxun opened his mouth in disbelief.

"It's called sweet potato. Although it doesn't taste good if you eat it for a long time, it can still fill your stomach. My chicken farm outside the city will soon have tens of thousands of hens laying eggs, and more than 10,000 eggs a day. In such a one-acre yard,

Feeding ten people is not a problem.

There are hundreds of servants in my village who are trustworthy. When the time comes, we will form our own caravan..." Liu Xin said and stopped talking here.

Liu Xin knew that the Yellow Turban Uprising was suppressed after only nine months, but others did not know. He still had 1,550 taels of gold in his hand, and there was no point in leaving it. It would be great to quietly expand his strength.

"What do you want me to do?" When Wang Qingxun heard Liu Xin's words, he knew that he was as unwilling to be ordinary as Zhang Fei, but the path he chose was completely different from Zhang Fei.

"Tomorrow I will ask Zhou Tai to find you. You can buy the yard quietly without being discovered. After that, I will ask Zhou Weibin and Wang Hui to stay in the city. You don't have to worry about planting sweet potatoes. My servants are responsible for keeping it secret.

I plan to find you a job in the county government. Being a county governor now only costs 2 million, so you can notify me as soon as possible if there is any news." Liu Xin said.

"Our county magistrate belongs to the prefect Liu Qi. The head of the Lu family, Lu Zhi, is already the Zhonglang general responsible for wiping out the Yellow Turbans. The Lu family and the prefect Liu Qi have been fighting openly and secretly. I am afraid that when I enter the government, I will be targeted by the Lu family. This will not work.

Okay!" Wang Qingxun said with a frown.

"Lu Zhi is both civil and military, but don't you think the Lu family is already too powerful?"

"You mean?" Wang Qingxun looked at Liu Xin with his eyes wide open.

"If Lu Zhi is defeated this time, the emperor will definitely deal with him. If he wins, do you think all the officials in the court will watch the Lu family occupy the entire Youzhou?

Gongsun Zan was a student of Lu Zhi, and is now a feudal lord in western Liaoning. Liu Yu is now the governor of Youzhou. His reputation is no less than that of Lu Zhi, and he is a royal relative. How could he let the Lu family continue to grow?

When you arrive at the county government office, you can do your work with peace of mind. Gongsun Zan is the son-in-law of Liu Qi, the prefect of Zhuo County. There will be no chaos in Zhuo County!" Liu Xin said.

Liu Xin had to make two preparations. If he could no longer stay at Qilin Villa, he would have a place to stay when he entered the city. Zhuo County Lord Bo had no salary, and there was no regular money of only a few coins. He was not considered an official but could only be considered a clerk. Wang Qingxun

Being a lively person, the boss can have more contact with the county magistrate. Although the monthly payment is not much, it still allows Liu Xin to see something clearly in the officialdom.

Now is the time when the Lu family is powerful, so it is easiest to buy errands. If Lu Zhi really goes to jail, he may not be able to buy errands.

After chatting with Wang Qingxun for a while about buying a yard to recruit refugees, Liu Xin returned to Qilin Villa at noon.

During the meal, Liu Xin called all the retainers and generals together and told them that he was going to buy a yard in the city. Zhou Weibin would take 20 of his most trusted housekeepers to the city in the afternoon.

On March 15th, Qilin Villa was still busy with house construction, and the sound of military training outside Zhangjiazhuang was heard every day. This made all the villages in the north of the city nervous. No one knew when the Yellow Turban Army would arrive outside Zhuoxian County.

The 5,000 chickens in early February were already over 40 days old, and the 2,500 roosters could not be sold. Liu Xin asked his servants to kill all the roosters to make chicken sausages, bake them in a tile kiln, and hang them indoors for storage.

No problem for half a year.

Liu Xin now still has thousands of kilograms of grain. Since the farm consumes more than 3,000 eggs every day, there should be no problem in using the grain until this year's autumn harvest. He is focusing on planting sweet potatoes.

More than 50,000 sweet potato seedlings have been planted in the greenhouse earthworm breeding field. They are growing well. If they are well raised, they should mature in June this year. By then, the greenhouse can grow two seasons of sweet potatoes a year.

As the weather gets warmer, earthworms can be cultured everywhere in Qilin Villa. Liu Xin's servants have to look for livestock manure everywhere every day. By mid-April, the number of large and small chickens in the chicken farm should exceed 10,000. By then, the number of chickens on the mountain will

The worm farm can satisfy all chicken feed requirements.

Now is the most difficult time of the recession, and ordinary people are suffering at this time. On this day, someone from Zhangjiazhuang asked Liu Xin to go to the village, saying that the owner of the village had important matters to discuss with them, and Liu Xin knew what to do.
