[The Three Kingdoms] Golden Sun Exhibition chapter 83

83 – Collaborator (6)

Sima Yi said he was going to have some tea with Sima Lang to share the memories of their first meeting in a long time.

Meanwhile, I wandered around Jinryu and looked at the atmosphere of the streets.

“It’s a nice place.”

It’s not a bad place by any means.

It is very suitable for people to live in, and as it is the base of King Jojo, the roads are clean and public security is stable.

Inevitably, significant progress will be achieved over time.

but….

‘There are limits to growth in the city.’

The possibility of it growing into a huge city like Eop, Luoyang, or Changan was quite low.

No matter how located it is in the center of the central plains, the geographical limitations surrounding the city cannot be overcome.

At best, it can grow to the size of a mid-sized provincial city.

Here, it is nearly impossible for Jinryu to replace Luoyang.

So what would happen if the Son of Heaven was brought here?

‘It must be difficult.’

Jinryu does not have the space, facilities, or equipment to build an imperial palace.

Jinryu is not a place where Yeon Yeon-mok can stay in the first place, so it is lacking in facilities in many ways.

The reason Dong Zhuo moved the capital to Changan, which was not his base, was because Changan was a suitable place for the imperial palace to be built.

In the first place, haven’t many large cities already been saying, ‘This is the center of the country’?

One great-grandfather, Liu Bang, came out of Pachok and established his capital in Luoyang.

Emperor Shi Huangdi took root in Chang’an.

In addition, many countries during the Warring States Period would have already carefully reviewed the city’s growth potential when deciding on a capital city.

Jinryu is not that kind of place.

If that were the case, someone would have built a huge kingdom centered around Jinryu.

‘It’s a perfect job, though.’

In that sense, the business location in Hebei could be said to be the best location.

The city is large in size, has a wide plain surrounding it, is not far from Luoyang, and has potential for development.

Although there is a disadvantage in that it is quite inconvenient to exercise influence in the south, including Jingzhou and Dongwu, when the master of Hebei commands the world with overwhelming power, it is the duty of a subject to follow.

The more I think about it, the more I regret it.

“Hyeopcheonja.”

Of course, the best place to host the Emperor would be a big city, but there is no place like that in Cao Cao County.

‘I’m sure they won’t hand it over to Yuan Shao.’

Jojo is ambitious.

If you look closely at her every move, you can clearly feel that she is trying to escape from the elements one day.

Cao Cao did something that Yuan Shao did not do?

In fact, this incident will be the starting point of the division between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

So, in what land will Cao Cao enshrine the Son of Heaven?

‘It won’t be Luoyang.’

If there is a candidate site among the lands she owns…

“….Oh, I guess not.”

Life can’t go as easily as I thought. Life is something that doesn’t go as you think, and if it goes as you think, you can live your whole life comfortably without having to do any work in the future.

Yes, relax.

A life that was miserably crumpled and barely unfolded becomes firmly erected all at once.

‘Let’s not lose our appetite while imagining happiness alone.’

I agree that happy imaginations about the future give vitality to living in the present, but if you become too absorbed in it, it will only lead to greater disappointment in the future.

“Anbunji is the path of my life.”

I’m not living in a situation where I’m lacking anything, and I’m not in a situation where I’m dissatisfied with my situation or situation.

In these difficult times, who else can live as comfortably and happily as I do?

hehehehe.

A cold wind blows.

It seemed like it was time to finish our outing and return to Samarang’s house.

“Spring is coming.”

The weather began to gradually warm up for winter.

Since ancient times, it has been said that in order for people to become friends with others, they must eat together.

And it was said that in order for a man and a man to become friends, they should break a glass together.

From noble mtl dot com

– Since you happen to be one year older than me, I will treat you as my older brother. Please speak lower.

– No, how could that be? Today I came as a foodie. You can’t treat your landlord carelessly.

– Aren’t you a boy living in this country before you become a homeowner? There are two men united by loyalty and cooperation for this country, and alcohol cannot be left out.

– Loyalty and cooperation?

– It’s righteousness and cooperation. There is righteousness in not coveting what belongs to others, and there is righteousness in living by helping others without being satisfied with one’s life. How can this not be righteousness? Brother, are you feeling sorry for this younger brother?

– …Well, it’s troublesome if a man keeps acting like that. Then I’ll leave it to you.

Samarang was one year younger than me.

It was quite surprising – perhaps because of the beard, his face value seemed much higher – but he was a very polite man.

“Have a drink, please.”

“…just a little drink?”

and.

“Ha, you don’t know how heartbroken I was when I heard what happened to Seoju. When I was sick and in the hospital, I heard that story and immediately ran out of the hospital bed!”

“Me too! Even though I am from Jingzhou, if I had known about such a thing, I would have tried to stop Cao Cao!”

One drink goes in.

“That’s right. He was intelligent from a young age. Do you still open your eyes and smile like this when a situation is unfavorable to you?”

“Huh?! That’s right!”

“hahahahaha, that’s embarrassing.”

“I think so too! As expected, my older brother is different!”

It takes three glasses.

“I may not know anything else, but I know one thing about human survival. If you have any concerns about the future, please tell me. I will do my best to rack your brain!”

“It’s an honor, brother.”

The moment a bottle enters.

“hahahaha, was that right? That’s surprising.”

“That’s right. In fact, although I spoke out, I was the same as Sima Yi who defeated Chiang Kai-shek’s army.”

“Wow, as expected, he was intelligent from a young age and stood out. I’m glad that he seems to be better than me.”

“That’s surprising. Don’t you get jealous when your younger sister excels?”

“I was jealous at one time, but after seeing you today, I changed my mind.”

Samarang smiled with a sweet face.

“How can a white heron catch up with a phoenix roaming in the sky?”

“Huh, are you saying they treat me that well?”

“I already had a reputation for being intelligent and clever from a young age. Then, that horny dog… ugh.”

Samarang huffed angrily.

“…When Dong-tak’s subordinate took over, Ui had to quickly run away from Ha-nae. I am fortunate to have met someone like my brother.”

“It was fate that I happened to be at Sugyeong Academy. hehehe.”

Because I was staying at the Sujing Academy, I was able to meet Sima Yi.

“Sama Yi is a disciple who made me think about many things.”

“Are you just thinking of me as a disciple?”

“…….”

Is it because of the alcohol involved?

It is difficult to answer such questions easily.

But this guy’s snout keeps trying to twitch at any moment.

‘Don’t make a mistake. The opponent is Sima Yi’s older brother.’

Calm down, me.

You must not speak indiscriminately toward your disciple’s family.

But that doesn’t mean I can’t help but release the blood boiling inside me.

“…Well, I’m just saying this because I told my father about it.”

I raised my glass.

“Maybe we’ll meet again in the next few years.”

“oh…!”

“Of course, it depends on what Sima Yi thinks! hahahahaha!”

Characteristics of small citizens.

Passing responsibility.

With this, the ball now passes to Sima Yi.

“I just hope to become a very big person in the future. hahahahaha.”

“I see! Oh, I also want to become successful. If my correct answer on the land issue is adopted this time…”

“earth?”

My ears perk up.

But for a moment, my heart sank.

‘Isn’t this committing corruption by receiving information from an insider?’

Discussing your wealth with someone in public office is something you should consider carefully.

If you talk carelessly, the military’s politics could be exposed.

“You talk-”

“The Duke of Zhou has given us a test on how to manage a large area of land. So, you don’t have to worry. The test is over.”

“Ah, is it a test?”

It’s exciting to hear that it’s a test of the land.

“What was the problem?”

“When countless people were asked to cultivate the land, I asked them what was the most effective way to obtain a harvest. The number of farmers was about 300,000, and the land was large enough for 300,000 to cultivate them all. “

“It’s extensive. And isn’t it more of a test than a consultation from the teachers?”

“This is a problem that was also posed to the generals. It is said that the person who gives the best answer will receive a box of gold as a reward.”

“hmm….”

Jojo presents a box of gold.

Suddenly my stomach hurts.

‘If I had heard from the Kwak family, I would have asked to split it in half.’

Sunuk and Sunyu are people who will solve these problems on their own, but Guo Jia is someone who actively seeks advice from me, even if it means splitting the injury in half.

But since no letters have arrived recently, how could I possibly know about the existence of this test?

“But it’s strange.”

“What are you saying is strange?”

“It’s crazy that Cao Cao suddenly holds such a competition by giving away a box of gold.”

That means it’s that important.

“When did you take the test?”

“It hasn’t been long.”

“…….”

Good luck?

no.

As for Cheongju, I understand that progress is already progressing steadily.

“This….”

At that moment, a map of the performance hanging on the wall caught my eye.

Collaborator.

capital.

An incredibly large area.

Large-scale agricultural land development.

“……Such crazy.”

my land.

It is said to be a capital city where the Emperor can be worshiped…?

Jump up.

“W-Why are you standing suddenly…?”

I stopped standing without realizing it.
