the next day.

The State of Qin followed the agreement and ceded the three cities of Pengcheng, Yixing and Xuecheng to Lin Yu.

Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand.

After Lin Yu obtained the city, he sent people to send Meng Tian back home.

Before leaving, Lin Yu personally escorted Meng Tian out of the city.

"General Meng, you and I wouldn't know each other without fighting."

"If the general is wronged in Qin in the future, feel free to come and seek refuge with me!"

Lin Yu said with a warm smile.

Meng Tian raised his hand:

"I appreciate the Overlord's kindness, but I'm afraid I won't have this chance."

"I, the Meng clan, have served the Qin Dynasty for three generations, how can I be wronged?"

Lin Yu thought: That's because Qin Shihuang is still alive.

If you wait until his son Hu Hai comes to power, you will suffer.

However, it was not convenient to say these words clearly after all. Lin Yu just smiled and said:

"Wish General Meng a safe journey!"

Meng Tian was also very grateful to Lin Yu for keeping his word and not making things difficult for him.

In addition, heroes cherish heroes, he also bowed his hands towards Lin Yu and said:

"Take care, Overlord!"

"See you next time on the battlefield, we are still enemies!"

Lin Yu laughed:

"General Meng, be careful!"

"Don't be captured alive by me again!"

After that, Meng Tian, ​​escorted by his guards, turned around and left Chu State, heading for Qin State.

Lin Yu said to Qin Banruo, Xiang Zhuang, and Xiang Bo beside him:

"Let's go, follow me to see the three cities ceded by Qin!"

Facts have proved that Qin Shihuang is a thief.

Although he ceded three cities as agreed, he plundered all the resources in the city.

Food, money, wood, ironware...

Everything that could be taken away from the city was taken away by the Qin soldiers.

When Lin Yu and the others came to the city, they saw that the three cities were empty, leaving only a bare farmland and a group of hungry people.

Xiang Zhuang became angry when he saw it and cursed:

"Qin Shihuang is so cunning! Although the city was given to us, there are only three empty cities left!"

Qin Banruo also frowned slightly and said:

"The Qin army not only plundered the three cities, but also left behind a group of people who had no enough to eat. These three cities simply became three burdens."

Lin Yu, however, did not panic and said calmly: "It doesn't matter!"

"Hybrid rice is planted in Kuaiji City and Yangling City. The rice will be mature in another month, and the people will be able to fill their stomachs by then."

"Although Qin Shihuang wiped out these three cities, he left the green hills behind, so he was not afraid of running out of firewood!"

"As long as there are farmland and farmers, I guarantee that this place will become prosperous within half a year!"

Although Lin Yu was full of confidence, Qin Banruo was still a little worried.

"Young Master, the food in these three cities has been taken away by the Qin soldiers. The people are now hungry. I am worried that they will not have the strength to do farm work."

Before he finished speaking, and before Lin Yu could answer, a reminder suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Ding~! It has been detected that the host has occupied Pengcheng, Yixing and Xuecheng. The road to hegemony has taken a step forward. The current progress is 0.08%]

[The system automatically issues rewards!]

[Congratulations on getting: Mohist machine city drawings - fully automatic waterwheel]

[Congratulations on getting: Ancient Rare Counselor——Fan Zeng]

Lin Yu was secretly happy:

"The system was considerate. When it knew I was encountering difficulties, it immediately sent me a plug-in."

This time, two rewards will be given out at once.

One is the waterwheel of the Mohist government city, and the other is the counselor Fan Zeng.

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

The next second, Lin Yu had a drawing of a fully automatic waterwheel in his mind.

"Don't panic, Prajna. I have a plan in my mind that can use the power of agencies to irrigate farmland independently."

Lin Yu said.

Qin Banruo was amazed, his charming eyes flickered with light, and his thick eyelashes trembled.

"What do you mean by this, young master? Can farmland be irrigated by itself?"

"That's right." Lin Yu nodded and said, "Don't be anxious, wait until I go to the government office to draw the drawings, and you will know at a glance."

After saying that, Lin Yu turned around and went back to the government office, took some pen and ink, and copied the fully automatic waterwheel of the Mohist government city according to the memory in his mind.

The core of this waterwheel is to use the power of water flow to drive and continuously irrigate water from the river to the farmland. This saves farmers' work and greatly reduces labor costs.

Qin Prajna Bingxue is smart and understands things by analogy.

She lay next to Lin Yu and watched. When she was halfway through the drawing, she said happily:

"Young Master is truly a peerless genius!"

"Young master can actually think of such a sophisticated and complicated mechanism!"

Lin Yu smiled modestly and said:

"This mechanism is actually not my original creation, but a Mohist mechanism technique. I visited the Mohist mechanism city in the early years and saw it by chance, so I wrote it down."

Qin Banruo said happily:

"With this waterwheel, each city can save at least hundreds of farmers. In this way, these farmers can join the army, and our military strength can be quickly increased."

"That's right, the manpower saved in agriculture can be used to explode troops."

Lin Yu also nodded and said,

"After the water tanker is put into use, conservative estimates suggest that our military strength will more than double!"

Just as he was talking, Xiang Zhuang quickly walked in from outside the door to announce.

"Brother Yu!"

"There is an old gentleman from Xuecheng who has come all the way. He calls himself Fan Zeng. Please meet you!"

When Lin Yu heard this, he quickly stood up and said, "Please come quickly!"

Fan Zeng, a famous counselor in Chu State.

He is the number one think tank under Xiang Yu!

It's a pity that Xiang Yu in history was stubborn and ignored Fan Zeng's suggestions many times.

Otherwise, if he had followed Fan Zeng's plan and killed Liu Bang early, there would have been no such thing as Wujiang committing suicide later.

Soon, Xiang Zhuang came in from the door with Fan Zeng.

The old gentleman is now nearly seventy years old, with fair hair and a boyish face, and a hale and hearty figure.

Seeing Lin Yu, Fan Zeng cupped his hands and said, "I, Xuecheng Fan Zeng, heard about Overlord's reputation and came here to seek refuge... I hope Overlord will take him in!"

Lin Yu quickly stood up to greet him, and said with a smile: "Sir, there is no need to be polite. I am honored to be able to help you, sir!"

Fan Zeng originally thought that Xiang Yu must be an arrogant and unruly young man, but he did not expect that he would be so courteous to a corporal.

He couldn't help but look at Xiang Yu with admiration, and he was even more convinced that his vision was right.

Xiang Yu is his destined master!

Lin Yu took the opportunity to use the system to glance at Fan Zeng's attributes.

[Character: Fan Zeng]

[Identity: Advisor]

[Strategy: a (magical calculation)]

[Internal affairs: a (not picking up things on the road)]

[Command: c (command if determined)]

[Prestige: c (well-known)]

[Force: e (mediocre)]

[Good at: being resourceful, thoughtful, far-sighted, rich in political experience, and especially good at understanding people. 】

After reading it, Lin Yu was very satisfied.

Strategy and internal affairs are both A, especially with extremely high internal affairs attributes, which is a type that Lin Yu is very lacking now.

Now that Lin Yu had just acquired three cities, he needed talents like Fan Zeng to help manage them.
Chapter completed!
