In addition to establishing a sweet potato winery and delivering iron horses to Gao Shun, Lu Bu came here for other purposes.

There are four or five large rivers near Teng Kingdom. After the autumn harvest, the people and the soldiers led by Gao Shun carried out river management. Because the flood in summer hit a lot of river sand, in order to navigate Weishan Lake, the river center was also deeply excavated in early winter, and a total of tens of thousands of people were launched for half a month. After the dredging, dozens of piles of river sand were accumulated, and a pile of thousands of cubic meters were piled up.

While it was just dark, Lu Bu went out alone and rode a red rabbit horse around the river, filling dozens of piles of fine river sand. He earned 60 million yuan, but it was not in vain. After enough money and food, he was strong and strong. He took it from the people and used it for the people. Lu Bu decided to repay the people of Teng Kingdom.

The next morning, Lu Bu arranged for a gathering of hundreds of craftsmen from Gao Shun's army.

When the craftsmen saw that they were alive, they were usually soldiers, but they only played craftsmen after they were alive, and they were not considered top craftsmen.

Everyone doesn't know what Lu Bu is going to arrange.

"Can we be able to make a pavilion that shelters from the rain? How much does it cost?"

Li Siyi, the leader of the craftsman, bowed: "I wonder if the pavilion the general mentioned is a wooden pavilion or a stone pavilion? The cost of the wooden pavilion is low, which means four pillars and one roof. The roof is boned by wooden boards and covered with green tiles on the outside, which can prevent rain and snow. The stone pavilion is made in complex processes and needs to be mined in the mountains to create stones."

"It's like this. From Tengguo to Xuzhou, this official road has a lot of travel between business and travel, but the wine shops and inns on both sides of the road are still scarce. Once a pedestrian suddenly encounters wind and rain, he will be soaked in a drool. Every three or five miles, a pavilion is built to provide a shelter for travelers and travelers to provide a place to shelter from the wind and rain."

Li Si was relieved. It turned out that it was not a difficult thing.

"You can do it when you go back to the general. It's just wood, green tiles, and the cost of land occupation, and everything else will be gone."

Lu Bu calculated that the cost was very low. The wood was cut from the mountain and burned by the official green tiles kiln factory. Needless to say, the land was occupied. There were several meters of open space left on both sides of the official road, which were all from the government, so there was no problem of land acquisition.

"Okay, then that's it. First, process wood from the barracks, just don't build a pavilion with four pillars, but build a long pavilion with six pillars. If there are too many people on the way, there will be no enough places to shelter from the rain."

Tengguo County was affiliated with Donghai County. Lu Bu arranged for the magistrate of Tengguo County to send people to choose a site at the post station, usually a pavilion of three to five miles, which later the people called Sanli Pavilion.

From Teng Kingdom to Xuzhou, more than 50 pavilions were planned for 180 miles.

In fact, it is much more saving than Lu Bu thought. Nowadays, gentry needs face. Wherever they go, the gentry and wealthy people will produce wood, green tiles, and arrange food. Lu Bu only used manual labor.

The cost of a pavilion is actually very low, less than two cents of money. In order to commend the gentry's righteous deeds, Lu Bu will engrave his name on the pavilion he donated. When Mi Hong led his team back from Youzhou, he saw that construction was being started on both sides of the road, and he happened to meet Lu Bu.

Mi Hong did not dare to neglect and hurried over to greet him.

"General, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Lu Bu looked at Mi Hong’s caravan with hundreds of mules and asked, “How is this time? What’s the change in the north?”

"During this period, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan were fighting. After Gongsun Zan was defeated, he actually built a high-rise building, dug deep trenches, and closed himself."

Lu Bu thought to himself that Gongsun Zan was finished. After building a high-rise building, Gongsun Zan did not contact the military generals and gradually became autistic. Later, he was defeated by Yuan Shao and played a very good hand.

Gongsun Zan was one of the few generals among the princes at the end of the Han Dynasty who didn't have to worry about war horses. He had many powerful generals under his command, and a famous general named Zhao Yun. His army, Yicong, was considered a cavalry and shooting soldier.

"If the head of the Mi family meets a general named Zhao Yun, you can help pay attention. Then hello and see if he is willing to come to our Xuzhou."

Mi Hong thought for a while: "I met once and checked my caravan and led a group of white horse cavalry. I just didn't have any deep friendships, so I will definitely talk more if I meet them next time."

Lu Bu pointed to the pavilion built by the roadside: "I know that the businessman has worked hard, sleeping in the open, and it is not easy to weather the wind and rain. He specially built dozens of pavilions along the official road, and he can avoid it even when encountering wind and rain along the way."

Mi Hong looked at his huge caravan, dozens of people and hundreds of mules. The pavilion was only ten feet long, so people could only go in and hide. However, he was quite thoughtful. There was a toilet next to the pavilion, and men and women were written on it, which was also a great progress in civilization.

Mi Hong gave a deep gift: "Thank you, General, you are really thoughtful."

“How did this trip get?”

"Return to the general, this time I trafficked back three thousand cowhides, six hundred Hun horses, and some northern specialties such as deer antlers, minks, ginseng, etc."

"The head of the Mi family seems to be rich, haha, the business is good. Do the Hun horses as soon as possible. Keep the good horses for combat purposes, and keep the farm horses for pulling carts and ploughing land."

During this period, other caravans also led thousands of farm horses to Xuzhou, mainly purchased from Jizhou. These horses grew up in rural areas when they were young and could not run fast, but they were strong and were most suitable for ploughing carts.

"Don't worry, General, after this cold winter, the caravan set off immediately. When I go back and rest for a few days, I will go to Youzhou, but I will go to Donglai County. Donglai County has heard that there are rich aconite donkeys. If it is suitable, I can sell some back."

"The Mi family leader is really hard, and it is not easy to do business. I will invite you to have a meal in the inn."

Mi Hong repeatedly refused. The businessman's status was very low these days, and Lu Bu was another hero. He was worried that he would turn against him if he turned against him, so it would be better not very close.

Mi Hong led the caravan over, and Lu Bu was very happy. He came back with hundreds of horses and more than three thousand cowhides.

Cowhide is a rare thing in the Central Plains, but it is different on the grassland. The grassland uses beef as its food, so cowhide is not worth the money.

However, in Xuzhou, cowhide is used as a saddle and cowhide armor, which is an important material.

As long as there is profit, the businessman is still very motivated.

Mi Hong loves Dahan Yujiu very much. He went to Donglai in a few days to sell Dahan Yujiu.

You should know that Qingzhou was the most cruel place for the Yellow Turbans at that time. The Qingzhou Yellow Turbans took away by Cao Cao had hundreds of thousands of people. Therefore, the Donglai County of Qingzhou is very poor now. The business of the poor is not easy to do, so it is probably because Donglai salt merchants are going to buy wine.

According to Lu Bu's plan, the three thousand cavalry of Zhang Liao's army, Yishui's war horses were all light cavalry, with bows, arrows, sabers, etc. as the main combat tools. Gao Shun's army, three thousand iron horse soldiers, and Yishui's great-two-eight were all infantry. Except for the seven hundred camps, the others were all high-speed mobile infantry.
