The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms

Banditry and banditry are just one of the problems in various states and counties.

The matters that really need to be dealt with by Zhou Cheng are issues related to money, food and people's livelihood.

The territory is larger, and the people to govern are more.

Issues of money, food and people's livelihood will surface.

For example, building water conservancy projects requires recruiting civilians and allocating money and grain.

This involves the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Household Affairs.

Tian Chou and Zhen Xian often have difficulty reaching an agreement because of money and food issues.

It's not that Zhen Xian is unwilling to allocate money and food.

But there are too many places where money and food are needed.

In the past two years, Zhou Cheng expanded his territory and needed money and food to protect the country and the people.

Repairing the city walls requires money and food.

The construction of military camps requires money and food.

The employment of public officials requires money and food.

The villagers work every day and need money and food.

Food, clothing, housing, transportation, expenses, everything requires money and food.

Make bricks without straw.

It’s difficult for Zhen Xian too.

Tian Chou can understand Zhen Xian's difficulties, but if the water conservancy project is not completed, heavy rains will cause floods.

In the event of drought, there will be no harvest.

Zhou Cheng finally understood that a small country with few people is fortunate to have a small country with few people.

In the past, when they ruled outside the Great Wall, they had vast and sparsely populated land and sufficient resources. By plundering and farming, they could easily feed a population of millions.

However, things are different now.

As the population of the Dominion increased, the problems grew.

Of course, in addition to people's livelihood issues, the appointment of officials is also a big issue.

Most of the prefects and county magistrates currently appointed by Zhou Cheng are not qualified for their positions.

This is also Zhou Cheng's helplessness.

Although Zhou Cheng was not as radical as Wang Mang in implementing the New Deal.

However, what Zhou Cheng is doing now still hurts the fundamental interests of the scholar-bureaucrat class and affects the fundamental interests of the aristocratic family.

……

After nightfall.

Zhou Cheng came to Xun Cai's room.

Xun Cai took off Zhou Cheng's clothes, rubbed his shoulders, and said,"My husband has been very tired recently."

Zhou Cheng closed his eyes, tapped

Xun Cai and said,"I can't share my husband's worries. I can only prepare drinks, sing and dance, To relieve my husband's fatigue."

Zhou Cheng smiled, patted Xun Cai's hand, and asked her to sit next to him;"Singing and dancing?"

Xun Cai clapped his hands, and then the curtain was opened.

Cai Yan played the piano, while Diao Chan, Mrs. Bian and others danced.

The dance was choreographed by Mrs. Bian.

Listening to songs and watching dances was the spiritual enjoyment of ancient great figures.

Of course, when dancing, you can appreciate a woman's figure and show off this beauty.

Zhou Cheng felt much better watching Diao Chan and others dancing.

At this time, Xun Cai said:"Husband, Cai has something that I want to tell you."

"What's the matter? Zhou Cheng asked.

Xun Cai replied:"Brother Xun Pei wants to surrender to his husband."

Zhou Cheng said:"You can handle this matter. If you need to arrange an official title, I will report it to the emperor." Xun

Cai shook his head and said,"My brother once served under Cao Mengde. Now he wants to join my husband. I would like to ask my husband to let him serve in the academy.""

Before Xun Cai could finish what he said, Zhou Cheng interrupted Xun Cai and said,"Your brother is my brother. If he comes to join me, he will be assigned an important position. If he has different intentions, I will send someone to supervise him. If you let him take up a post in the academy, how will your face be saved?"

Just when I was about to go to sleep, someone came to deliver a pillow.

No matter whether my uncle sincerely wanted to come to Zhou Cheng or not.

In short, we can use him to make some fuss

…… after a few days.

Under the leadership of the guards, Xun Pei came to Zhou Cheng

"Meet Da Sima."

Xun Pei bowed to see him.

Zhou Cheng looked at his uncle, who looked like an upright Confucian scholar, and said:"We are all one family, no need to be polite, please sit down."

Zhou Cheng's father-in-law had an official rank of Sikong in history, and Xun Pi was also awarded the title of Shesheng Xiaowei.

Xun's Eight Dragons and Sima Eight Dragons were both very famous figures.

Xun Pi looked at this as his 'brother-in-law'.

It's not as rude as expected.

Moreover, on the way to Zhenliaocheng, the place was well managed.

It's just that there are a little more rules and the management is stricter.

Soon, the guards brought the wine and food.

The dishes were relatively Exquisite, not big fish and meat, obviously taking care of Xun Pei.

After three rounds of wine.

At this time, Zhou Cheng said to Xun Pei:"Brother comes to vote, I will put him to good use. Now Qingzhou is newly settled, brother can go to Jinan as the governor. Later, the memorial was set out, and I believe it will arrive in Luoyang and be presented to the emperor in the near future. Xun

Pei looked at Zhou Cheng and asked doubtfully,"Aren't you afraid that Duke Cao sent someone here to investigate the military situation?""

"Hahaha. Zhou Cheng said:"Cai'er often told me that my father and brother are famous for their filial piety and etiquette. If I do anything to investigate the military situation for Cao Mengde, I will only make people laugh at me.""

_ Eight Dragons, Xun's name, is even more bluffing.
