"Young Master!"

"Ahem, Xiao Wu, do a good job, I have other things to do."

Wu Song was born along with the four great writers. He already had good attributes when he was naked, and he also had the captive personality that Zhao Hao wanted most, so he was taken in as one of the guards.

"yes!"

After Zhao Hao entered the Duke's mansion, the four of them respectfully presented him with a copy of "Dream of the Red Chamber".

"Young master, as you said, the book is complete!"

Zhao Hao simply nodded, but did not look at the document.

Of the Four Great Classical Novels, he was least interested in this one; the other three were much more interesting.

Therefore, I will first give a general overview of the book's content as the first edition.

"Not bad, not bad, you are all capable. Guanzhong, how are the preparations for the paper mill and movable type printing plant that I assigned you to manage going?"

"Reporting to Young Master, with the craftsmen you brought, as long as there are enough raw materials, the Second Factory can already start operating!"

"Very good, Shi Nai'an. How are the bookstores you asked me to set up in Jinyang doing?"

"Reporting to your young master, we are ready to open for business at any time!"

Zhao Hao nodded in satisfaction, "Dream of the Red Chamber is just the first book. There are many more things that you will need to handle in the future. It all depends on you to make sure that everyone can read these storybooks."

Wu Cheng'en nodded, but still had doubts.

"Young Master, is it really necessary to make those people understand the laws and truths of the world? The book *Dream of the Red Chamber* alone contains countless metaphors..."

Zhao Hao waved his hand, “You all have a long way to go. We are not just here to make money and reward silver, but to make the people fearless of the powerful and not be slaughtered by others. We want everyone to have courage and justice in their hearts.”

Only in this way, when the prosperous era arrives, will those unseen corrupt officials, landlords, and gentry restrain themselves and dare not exploit people to the point of death!

"Young master, you are truly virtuous!"

"Alright, now that this one is finished, the next one will be *Water Margin*, then *Romance of the Late Han Dynasty*, and finally *Journey to the West*. After completing these most important ones, we'll start on *Journey to the East*, *Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties*, *The Legend of Xu Xian*, *Horse Trampling Cherry Blossoms*, and so on..."

After recruiting several people, Zhao Hao spent a considerable amount of time immersed in writing his book.

As for state affairs, Zhao Hao had his subordinates to handle them, so he didn't have to spend too much energy on them. He would spend his mornings and afternoons writing books with these great literary figures, and his evenings would naturally be spent enjoying the warmth of his wife and children.

Speaking of which, Zhao Hao is now a father of several children.

Liu Tong gave birth to Zhao Hao's eldest son, named Zhao Sheng.

Hu Sanniang gave birth to Zhao Hao's second daughter, and Zhao Hao, with a wicked sense of humor, named her Zhao Min.

Li Xiuning also gave birth to a son, who was named Zhao Feng shortly after his one-month birthday.

Mu Guiying's belly is showing signs of pregnancy, but it's still unknown whether it's a chubby baby or a cute little girl.

Du Yue and Dong Bai are still not pregnant, and Zhang Ning's situation is special, so she cannot be included.

Finally, there's Lü Lingqi, who's grown up quite a bit. Even before she turned 15, her leg length was already the envy of many.

After Lü Lingqi married into the family, she grew up alongside Liu Tong. Now, the two are more like sisters than a mistress and a concubine.

Lü Bu had already tacitly agreed to the marriage. After returning to Jinyang, he spent most of his time with Lady Yan, and gave away the maids that others had given him to his generals. Apart from occasionally returning to Wuyuan to visit his fellow villagers, he spent his time at home making several more little Lü Bus.

Time flies, and soon it was March 193.

"We greet Lord Qin!"

The three men finally completed the handover of affairs in various parts of Liangzhou and, with their families, came to Jinyang to meet Zhao Hao.

Of course, the three of them came to the banquet alone today, and it was Zhao Hao who took the initiative to host a welcome dinner for them.

Unexpectedly, these guys' abilities far exceeded Zhao Hao's expectations.

"Gentlemen, please take your seats quickly. Oh dear, it's my fault for not making it clear. Today should be a family dinner, and you should have brought your families."

It's alright! War is about to break out, and we'll need the three of you then.

"When the time comes, remember to bring your families so we can all enjoy the feast together!"

"Forehead..."

They were actually quite apprehensive. They had only heard rumors about Zhao Hao before, so it was naturally a good thing to finally see him in person.

But you're saying you'd bring their whole families? They're not heartless people. What if you, Zhao Hao, wanted to take this opportunity to chop them all up and seize their military power?

Zhao Hao pretended to be nonchalant and quickly pulled the three of them inside.

Only Han Sui understood the meaning behind Zhao Hao's words and lowered his guard.
