The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

After resting, Chen Ziming locked himself in the study the next day, not letting anyone disturb him, not knowing what he was doing, only Cai Yan who came to deliver the meal occasionally heard some incomprehensible broken words.

For example, I am a great inventor, a chemist, and a Nobel Prize winner.

That's all about making money, easy and whatnot. . . . . . .

While Cai Yan was worried, he had no choice but to deliver three meals a day on time, and then supervised Chen Ziming to finish eating before leaving under Chen Ziming's urging, while Chen Ziming closed the door and continued his plan to make a fortune.

Chapter 579 Gathering in Linzi

Three days later, Chen Ziming left the customs and rushed away with a stack of papers. The target was the researcher established by Chen Ziming. Of course, this researcher was just an empty shell. There were not many so-called researchers. Chen Ziming mainly used it to study some Think something that can be made in this age.

After all, in this era, the level of chemistry is almost zero, and many professional things cannot be produced, and can only be replaced by some substances with corresponding properties.And the main task of this researcher is to find these similar substances and use them to make some useful items.

"Prime Minister, we will follow your instructions to build a high-temperature calcination box, and the cement has already been made." Just after entering the researcher, a young man with sweaty clothes and yellow clothes rushed to announce the good news to Chen Ziming.

When Chen Ziming heard it, he didn't mind the young man's image at all, and said happily, "It's true, take me to have a look."

Seeing the familiar ash powder in front of him, Chen Ziming grabbed it, feeling extremely excited, this thing was finally made out.

"What about the bricks, have they been burned?" Chen Ziming immediately remembered that he had asked people to study the making of bricks.

At this time, a strong man came out and saluted with a smile all over his face: "Report to the prime minister, the bricks have been burnt out, please check the prime minister."

Immediately, Chen Ziming ordered the cement and bricks to be transported to the test site, and then began to experiment with building walls. Yes, it was the kind of wall building that is used to build houses.

"There is too much water, never, record the amount of water and cement, find the most suitable ratio, and make the cement viscosity moderate..."

Chen Ziming acted as the on-site contractor and continued to direct the people to test again and again. Under the leadership of Chen Ziming, a master with rich experience, he quickly made the most suitable cement viscosity.

"Come on, look carefully, like this, apply a layer of cement, and then put it neatly..."

"The second layer cannot be aligned with the first layer, it must be staggered, so that the upper brick must be placed between the lower two bricks, so that it is firm..."

"Come on, hurry up and transport the cement and bricks..."

After busying for a long time, a familiar brick wall was erected in front of Chen Ziming. Chen Ziming was so excited that this thing finally came out, which would bring a building storm to the big man.

"You all have made great achievements, and you should be rewarded heavily. All the technologies are constantly being passed on to the outside world, and I will use them again..."

After collecting the cement and brick making crafts, Chen Ziming had a meal with everyone. The food for the researcher was very good, with meat and vegetables, and the taste was good, but compared to the delicacies of later generations, these meals were really bland.

"Immediately start researching this. This is an improved soap. It is very simple. The required materials are quickly found, and the finished product can be completed within two days..."

"..."

Then Chen Ziming sorted out the past two days according to his own memory, and distributed the trends that were easy to create in this era of backward technology, so that everyone could start to develop them.

The researchers were divided into several groups and began to study according to Chen Ziming's requirements. Chen Ziming continued to explain to them what they didn't understand, and improved many small steps. It was not until late at night that Chen Ziming dragged his tired body back.

Chen Ziming's movements quickly spread to Liu Bei's ears. Liu Bei was also very curious about Chen Ziming's promise to spend a huge amount of military expenditure in five days. He wanted to see how Chen Ziming got so much money, so he sent someone to keep an eye on Chen Ziming at all times. , report immediately.

"Ziming is trying to come up with something good..."

The researcher is Chen Ziming's site, and it was built by Chen Ziming. Many things are made from there, which are very novel and practical.

"Your Majesty, great merchants from clans from all over the world are gathering in Linzi, and merchants from as far away as Yizhou will also arrive tomorrow. Preliminary statistics show that there will be many great clans or merchants from the Han Dynasty in the city of Linzi tomorrow, all of whom are wealthy."

It was normal for merchants and people from the clan to gather in Linzi. After all, Linzi was the commercial center of the Han Dynasty, with everything that one could expect, and Liu Bei strongly supported business, so it was normal for many merchants and people from the clan to come to Zizi.

But this time was different. The merchants under Liu Bei's rule and people from a large family all came here at the invitation of Chen Ziming, and everyone who came here was very wealthy.

"Donation?" After learning about this, Liu Bei's first thought was that Chen Ziming planned to ask those merchants and clans to donate money, or use the old method to borrow money from them.

This is a good way. Those merchants and clans are so rich that no one will give a little, but it can solve the urgent need.

But Liu Bei did not support Chen Ziming's doing this. Although those clans and businessmen had money, they would not give it to Liu Bei for no reason. Liu Bei's group clashed.

"Zi Ming would not have done such an unwise thing." Liu Bei shook his head, otherwise this possibility would have caused those merchants and clans to contribute money for no reason, and they had no intention of killing chickens to get eggs, and short-sighted people did it.

"Strengthen Linzi's patrol and defense, and make no mistakes..."

Liu Bei couldn't figure out what Chen Ziming was going to do, so he could only go with him, and at the same time strengthen the security of Linzi to avoid any accidents.

Of course, close surveillance is indispensable. Cao Cao and Sun Quan's secret room is not a decoration, and it is not impossible to take the opportunity to sneak into Linzi and cause some sabotage.

Another thing is to monitor those wealthy businessmen and clan members to prevent them from colluding with the officials of the DPRK and China. This kind of thing must never happen again. One is rich and the other is powerful, and many things can be easily done.

That night, a group of people arrived in Linzi. Today, Linzi is open at night and can come in and out at any time. Even in the middle of the night, people can still be seen coming in and out of Linzi.

In this era, it was almost impossible, especially in the era of war, the city gate would be closed at sunset, and Linzi, as Liu Bei's base camp, dared to stay open at night, which surprised the group.

"According to the order of my adults, I will wait for you for a long time. The accommodation has been arranged. Please go with me." At this time, a well-dressed young man came to the crowd with a few subordinates. know.

"Patriarch Zhang has a heart, please."

Everyone thanked and followed the guide into Linzi city.

The wide and tidy streets are still brightly lit, and there are people coming and going on the street, all of whom are dressed in extraordinary clothes. Everyone once again marvels at the prosperity of Linzi, which is worthy of being the number one city in the world.

"The owner is inconvenient to receive the adults, please forgive me."

Everyone was arranged to a high-end inn. When they were stupefied, their guide had already left, so everyone didn't know why.

5 Chapter Eighty

"What does Patriarch Zhang mean by this, is there no guest room in the mansion?"

Everyone thought that Patriarch Zhang would bring them into the mansion and treat them graciously, but they didn't expect to arrange them to the inn, not to mention the lavish hospitality, and he sent them away without even showing his face.

"This is not right." The leader frowned and said, "The head of the Zhang family is a rich family in Yizhou. He served in the court. Although he has a high position and authority, this place is Linzi..."

"Don't bring up this matter again, everyone can rest in peace, and I will send someone to investigate." The other quickly stopped the person just now from continuing, and everyone's expressions were not good.

The so-called head of the Zhang family is a well-known patriarch in Yizhou, and also a very famous celebrity. Now he has surrendered to Liu Bei, and he is highly valued by Liu Bei and holds a high position.

Now it seems that the situation is not as good as they imagined. They have a deep friendship with the Zhang family, and it can be said that it is an interest group headed by the Zhang family. Now that they came, the head of the Zhang family did not see them.

Early the next morning, they received a message from Chen Ziming to hold a banquet at the Xinde Villa outside the city tomorrow.

The head of the Zhang family they said was Zhang Song of Yizhou. Because of his great achievements in introducing Liu Bei to Yizhou, he was entrusted with important tasks. He ranked above Li Hui, Liu Ba and other Yizhou old ministers. It can be said that Yizhou No. 1.

Zhang Song is crazy, but not an idiot, on the contrary, he is very smart. He originally thought that he was the top talent in the world, and he had made great achievements. He would definitely succeed in Liu Bei's place. Compared with Liu Zhang's, he was much more prosperous.

After entering the imperial court and familiarizing himself with the division of political power of the Liu Bei Group, Zhang Song immediately dispelled this idea. Zhang Song was reused by Liu Bei and possessed a lot of real power, but his power was very restricted, and even had a special department to supervise it. , There is no chance to abuse private power at all.

In Yizhou before, he wanted to execute a servant, so easily and without any scruples, even Liu Zhang would not say anything, but here, let alone executing a servant, he could not even punish the servant unreasonably, otherwise he would definitely eat him. lawsuit.

The most important thing is that he has too many political enemies. Most of the old officials in Yizhou are very hostile to Zhang Song, which makes him dare not do illegal things at all.
