My balcony connects the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 164 Join
I don't know if it's an illusion, but Wei Cheng always feels that the climate of this world is colder than that of later generations.

It was only late autumn and October, and when I woke up in the morning, I saw layers of frost crystals on the eaves.

According to this situation, it is estimated that the first snow will fall in more than half a month.

In the blink of an eye, I have lived in this era for more than four months. After experiencing the scorching heat and golden autumn, winter is about to begin.

Sitting under the eaves, Wei Cheng watched the hoarfrost melt into water droplets, and then one drop fell into the drains on both sides of the stone steps.

"Husband, it's time to eat."

Cai Yan stood at the door of the East Wing and waved to Wei Cheng, with a tired look on his face.

Wei Cheng knew that she must have stayed up late last night to correct her homework again, and she would have known that he would not have given her any nine-year compulsory education.

"coming."

Wei Cheng got up and patted the non-existing dust on his buttocks, and couldn't help stretching.

The restaurant was already full of people, and there was only one main seat left for Wei Cheng.

Cai Yan, Aning, Niu Niu, Hao Niang, Zhong Xian, Zhong Chan, and Aunt Niu who was waiting on the side, really was a big table.

"Aunt Niu, stop busy, sit down and eat together." Wei Cheng said as usual.

Aunt Niu was very reserved at first, but now she is used to Wei Cheng and Cai Yan's easy-going, and after serving a bowl of porridge for Wei Cheng, she also sat down.

"Well, today's food is good, where did you get the persimmons?"

Aunt Niu responded with a smile: "The steward of the master's house sent it, saying it was for the young master to try something new."

Wei Cheng nodded, indicating that everyone can move their chopsticks.

Aning and Niu Niu were already so hungry that their stomachs were growling. Seeing this, they picked up chopsticks and started eating and drinking. The two little girls were like a competition, each with a better appetite than the other.

Cai Yan and Aunt Niu sat on both sides, wiping the mouths of the two girls from time to time, their eyes full of maternal brilliance.

After eating a few mouthfuls, Wei Cheng looked at Hao Niang and asked, "Are there enough ingredients for the pastry shop?"

Hao Niang nodded, thought for a while and said, "There's not much sugar left, it's only enough for three to five days. Recently, the business is good and the consumption is large."

Wei Cheng let out a 'huh', took a bite of the food, and said, "I'll send two more bags later."

Looking at Zhong Xian again, he asked with a smile, "Uncle Zhong, if the stable is not busy, you can spend more time with Chan'er."

Upon hearing this, Zhong Chan blinked gratefully at Wei Cheng, and at the same time looked at Zhong Xian aggrievedly, and said, "That's right, Daddy only cares about those horses and doesn't care about me at all."

After Zhong Xian recuperated these days, his complexion improved a lot. Seeing his daughter acting like a baby, he raised his hand and gestured for a while.

Seeing this, Zhong Chan pouted and said, "I don't want to go to school, those new gentlemen are so strict."

Speaking of the school, Wei Cheng looked at Cai Yan.

Cai Yan wiped Aning's mouth, and said with a smile: "Mr. Shen and the others are indeed stricter, but they have rich teaching experience, and they are stricter for the benefit of the students. Occasionally, they will hit a board and be punished to stand or something..."

A meal ends in such an atmosphere of talking and laughing.

After Wei Cheng had dinner, he sent Cai Yan to school.

On the way, I met Xu Ding who was in a hurry.

"Young master, I'm going to find you, please take a look at this."

Wei Cheng looked at Cai Yan apologetically, "Sorry, I can't send you to school."

Cai Yan smiled knowingly to show that he was not in the way, and after nodding with Xu Ding, he said softly: "Brother Xu must have something important to see you, so there is no need for your husband to see me off."

Wei Cheng jumped off the carriage, motioned the driver to protect Cai Yan, and then looked at Xu Ding curiously.

Xu Dingchao waved his hand to the carriage, then turned around and said in a deep voice: "My lord, there is news from the northern border that in recent days, barbarians have been going south to plunder from time to time, causing heavy casualties to border residents, and several newly established breeding farms have been looted. "

"what?"

Wei Cheng's expression changed drastically.

Hit Grass Valley.

He immediately thought of these three words.

"It's unreasonable. I didn't bother them, but they thought of me first."

Nowadays, no one in the world knows that Hedong is rich and peaceful. The news has spread to the grasslands. In their eyes, Hedong is a big piece of fat. As long as they go south to grab a few times, they will have nothing to worry about throughout the winter.

In particular, there are many Huns in the territory of Hedong. These people provide information and cooperate with the outside world. These people know exactly where there are good things and where the troops are empty.

"The main grassland is not very flat. I heard that there was a plague some time ago, and the cattle and sheep died in pieces. Otherwise, they would not go south so early. In previous years, they would come down when the winter was about to enter. I don't want to come down early this year." Yes, it caught us off guard."

Xu Ding said with a sigh.

Wei Cheng's face was ashen, and Hedong had finally turned around. At this time, he came to make trouble for himself, so what's the difference with courting death?
"It's too late to say anything now... By the way, what about Gongming and Yide, they haven't come back yet?"

Xu Ding shook his head helplessly.

Wei Cheng took a deep breath, and said angrily: "Send someone to deliver a letter, and tell them to return quickly. The house has been stolen, and they have the nerve to wander outside."

"Uh... I'll go right away." Xu Ding replied.

···
Beicheng Weisuo.

"Wen Ruo, this is the answer you want to know. To be honest, I shouldn't have shown you this proposal."

Tian Feng was a little lucky at this time, because just now, Xun Yu agreed to Zhang Qi's invitation, and he will soon be his own.

Regarding Xun Yu's talent, Tian Feng had already heard a thing or two from Zhang Qi.

The two just talked about the current situation and personal views, and found that they have a lot in common.

It can even be said that Tian Feng believes that his views on the overall situation have many shortcomings compared with Xun Yu's.

It is Wei Cheng, and many of Xun Yu's opinions can be said to coincide with Wei Cheng's.

This is also the main reason why Tian Feng is willing to present Wei Cheng's five-year plan.

After receiving the book from Tian Feng, Xun Yu turned his expression back, and after bowing, he knelt on the futon and began to read slowly.

Seeing this, Tian Feng didn't want to bother him.

Thinking of the information he had just received, he frowned slightly and walked out of the study.

"Mr. Tian, ​​Your Excellency welcomes you." A servant in the courtyard came over and said respectfully.

Tian Feng nodded slightly, knowing that he was going to discuss the matter of the Hu people going south to plunder, and looked back at Xun Yu, Tian Feng ordered his servants to bring some refreshments and preserved fruits, and then hurried to the Wei Mansion.

"Water can carry a boat and also overturn it...it makes sense."

"Gewu is the primary productive force...Gewu?"

"For one year there will be no beggars on the street, for two years every household will eat three meals a day, for three years everyone will have meat to eat...in five years the whole county will be well-off?"

"Who is this Xiaokang?"

The voice of Xun Yu talking to himself could be heard from time to time in the study, and the busy people walking around at the door did not affect his obsession at all.

Regarding the five-year plan drawn up by Wei Cheng, he has a lot of puzzles, and also has a lot of admiration, but most of them are crazy.

At this time, Xun Yu wished he could meet Wei Cheng right away, because he really didn't understand many words in this proposal.

"What is cement?"

"What is the principle of the wind pump?"

"Ah...what's the explanation for this joint production contract responsibility system?"

"To lay the industrial foundation for the second five-year plan, it seems that this guy named industry is very important."
