Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 514;

Chapter 510;

How did Li Yu know about these twists and turns, and he didn't know what Zou Shuyi was thinking, but it was indeed still early, and it was close to noon, which was almost eleven o'clock at noon.

"I ate a lot in the morning. I'm not too hungry right now. Why don't we go for a walk by the river and see how the fields are being plowed."

Zou Shuyi responded happily;

"No. Respect the life of the patriarch."

Zou Shuyi walked one step behind Li Yu, Zou Shujuan followed behind and walked side by side with Li Yu's maid on duty, and behind them were 21 guard slaves on duty beside Li Yu.

In the past, there were always nineteen guards on duty every day, but now because Li's second room has added two more surnames, Li Yu took the lead in amending the rules, and the number of guards on duty every day became 21.

A group of people left Zhuangzi and walked eastward. It didn't take long for them to come to the mother river that raised the people of Lantian, and there were bare fields as far as the eye could see.

These are all the fields that Li Yu arranged for farmers and people from nearby villages to exchange for the convenience of unified management and unified cultivation. The land on both sides of the river for more than ten miles along the river was all bought by Li Yu at a high price.

The two sides of the entire river are almost equivalent to the super farms of later generations in the United States. Li Yu has carefully calculated that if the cultivation speed can be increased, scientific planting, and new water truck irrigation, the rice fields will be full of nutrients. The output of these fields It is enough to maintain Li Yu's two super brewing workshops, and there is even a lot of grain left.

In this way, Li Yu will save a lot of expenses, and it can also save time, space, money, manpower, etc. to go out to buy grain, so Li Yu is very important to the Li family's farming affairs.

Now next to the plowed field, Li Yu looked around, then squatted down to check the plowed soil carefully, and grabbed a handful of broken soil in his hand.

Zou Shuyi felt a little embarrassed when she saw Li Yu grabbing a handful of soil and putting it in front of her for inspection, so she quickly knelt down to persuade her;
"Lang Jun, don't grab it, it's dirty and smelly, throw it away quickly? Come to my slave's house to wipe your hands."

Li Yu reached out to stop Zou Shuyi;

"No need. I'm going to check carefully. If you can't bear this little thing, what will it look like?

I am not a proud son of heaven, let alone a golden branch and jade leaf. Apart from being the head of a clan with five surnames and seven surnames, I am an ordinary person, like all the people in the world, with one nose, two eyes, and one mouth. the difference!
I can do the work that the peasants can do, and I can grit my teeth and endure the hardships that the peasants can endure. Didn’t the ancient sages and sages make it very clear?

Mencius said:
Shunfa was raised among the farms, Fu Shuo was raised among the slabs, Jiaoqi was raised in the fish salt, Guan Yiwu was raised by the scholars, Sun Shuao was raised in the sea, and Bailixi was raised in the city.

Therefore, when the heavens will give a great responsibility to people, they must first suffer their minds and wills, labor their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skin, empty their bodies, and disturb their actions.

People persist in their mistakes, and then they can correct them. If they are trapped in their hearts, they are weighed in their worries, and then they are acted on;If you enter, you will be helpless, and if you leave, you will be invincible to foreign patients. The country will perish, and then you will know that you are born in sorrow and die in peace.

So, what do people have to do, what to do, and finally realize their own value, so that they can feel that they have lived this life unjustly. It is necessary to take action personally and rush to the front. Only in this way can the farmers of the entire Li family be mobilized, and everyone should take farming as a priority and not dare to slack off. "

Mencius on Li Yu's back, Zou Shuyi came from the master's family, and Professor Aye could understand it when she was young, but others may not be sure, especially the 21 strong slaves who followed her, they all looked at their patriarch with admiration.

Several of them were discussing in whispers, today's leader, Ma Shijiu, whispered to his brothers;
"Did you hear that? Let's see how powerful our patriarch is. Do you know what it means to talk about so much knowledge?"

A group of people who were asked shook their heads, and another servant hurriedly answered the first sentence;
"I don't know, Captain, but I understand that what the patriarch said is a reasonable question, can our patriarch say something wrong? It must be a learned question, brothers, are you right?"

"That is! That is!"

"Sure, don't you think this is nonsense, how can there be anything that the patriarch read out of his mouth that is not good?"

"That's right, otherwise, how could you make the Eight Immortals Table and Grand Master's Chair? And make it into such delicious spirits, it satisfies the appetites of people all over the world."

"That's right, our patriarch is good in everything, the only fly in the ointment is that we only give us a catty of liquor every month, which is really not enough to eat.

Every time I took the baijiu sent back, I, Aye, directly snatched it away, and gave me two tastes, two small sips, it really made me so hungry!It would be even more beautiful if you could give me an extra three to five catties every month. "

A tall and burly guard was shaking his head and talking to himself, as if he was a little dissatisfied with the benefits of only a catty of liquor every month,
With a very regretful expression on his face, the strong man was slapped on the head by Ma Jiujiu, the leader on duty today, as soon as he finished speaking, the strong man quickly shrank his neck.

"You bastard, you're blaming Misato for thinking of giving you five catties a month? Our clan ate up all of it, so what are you going to give to those big households?
Those big families gave our patriarch a lot of money, don't you want to deliver it to others, share it with everyone, and those big families in the world don't come to our village to make a mess?
When the time comes, we can't justify ourselves, and if we listen to others scolding Aye and scolding Aniang, it's not good to say something back. Wouldn't it be worthless, what an idiot! "

Ma Jiujiu didn't really hit people, they were all members of the same family, just having fun, the young man who was beaten said with a sad face;

"But brother nineteen, I really want to eat that fine wine once, but every time your uncle takes away a catty of it, am I not greedy!"

Ma Jiujiu imitated the look of the patriarch, with his hands behind his back;
"Well, I know that almost all of us are like this. Let alone a catty, this catty is only due to the fact that we are the guards of the patriarch. Look at the more than 100 guards besides us. Who will take half a catty?

Don't talk about you, everyone is the same, the white wine sent back was confiscated by their respective Aye, and you are the only one who is greedy!You ask which one is not hungry? "

The beaten young man approached with a smile;

"Brother Nineteen, you have a very bright head, why don't you think of a way, let us brothers eat him well, how about it?"

Ma Shijiu is one of those people who can see his butthole when he opens his mouth, his intestines go straight to the end, he doesn't beat around the bush, but he likes others to praise him for his brains, so he immediately took it for granted and frowned Brows can be vigorously thinking about the problem...

"Well... let me think about it! By the way, didn't Master Liu ask us to help him go to the workshop for a day before yesterday? This favor can't be in vain. Today, the value is off. Let's blackmail him and tell him to think about it. The way is to invite us to have a good meal, and simply have a good time!"

As soon as a group of tall and burly men heard the name of Patriarch Liu, they immediately babbled, and all of them shut their mouths and dared not answer. Everyone knew that Ma Shijiu was talking about Patriarch Liu. who?

That was the only son of Mrs. Liu, the former number one steward of the inner house in the backyard, and the second elder with the surname Liu~Liu Tiedan, a second steward in the brewery.

Even though Liu Tiedan is only in his teens, Liu Tiedan is nothing more than a child compared to these grown-up men, but his name is extremely powerful. The patriarch of the same surname, what are you talking about? Just kidding, dare to blackmail people?
Even though Liu Guanshi is only ten years old, he is still the patriarch of the same surname, and his status is very honorable. The family has nineteen surnames and nineteen patriarchs. This is the most honorable nineteen people in Mali. As for the family law of the surname, the family members with the entire surname, life and death are all in the hands of the head of the family alone...

It's not based on age, and only Ma Shijiu, the idiot who is also the cousin of the head of the Liu family, dares to say things that are going to blackmail people. Who else would dare to accept such frightening words?
Ma Jiu put his hands behind his back and his horrible expression was full of disgust and nausea;

"What's the matter? You were cowardly when you heard that you were blackmailing people? Look at how cowardly you are..."

Not to mention the excitement of the guards next to him, but to say that Zou Shuyi here also smiled wryly when she heard the patriarch talking about Mencius;

"Patriarch, you are different from the common people, you can't be compared. You are our leader, the head of the clan, and you are really a golden branch and jade leaf."

Li Yu shook his head with a smile. It is impossible to break the concept of three, six, nine and nine ranks here. Nobles are nobles whose life is precious. Among the low-class people, that is born with precious life...

Li Yu brought the soil to his nose and smelled it;

"It smells very bad. It seems to smell like cow dung, human dung, and small ashes from the fire. Not bad, not bad. Whose idea is this?"

When Zou Shuyi heard the patriarch say it was smelly, she quickly reached out and forcibly patted the soil off Li Yu's hands, took out a silk scarf and wiped Li Yu's hands carefully, then turned her head to look at a group of guards and ordered;
"Nineteen, tell someone to go down to the river and bring over my silk scarf after it gets wet so that I can wipe the patriarch's hands clean."

"Hey, don't shout about the boss, the villain is coming."

Ma Jiujiu, who was teaching a group of cowards, pointed to the guy who wanted to share five catties of liquor a month;

"Hurry up, you go and get Zou Da's manager's cloth to get wet, hurry up and don't delay!"

Ma Jiujiu disliked his brother's slow running, so he kicked him on the ass.

After sending the servants to wet the silk scarf, Zou Shuyi said with some embarrassment;

"As the patriarch Hui said, these are all the ideas of the slave family. I thought that the fields were plowed, but you didn't mention the next step. I was a little anxious, and I thought that I would be idle anyway, so I arranged for farmers They fertilized the fields and loosened the soil.

No matter what kind of fertilizer he puts in a lot, I hope it can help the crops, so that the growth will be gratifying in the future, but I don’t know if the new planting method you made by the patriarch needs these, don’t ask me to be a waste of help? "

Li Yu stood up and responded with a smile;

"Okay. It's a good thing to know that thinking is a good thing. It shows that you take errands seriously, and you really put your heart into doing things. What I want is talents like you. It doesn't matter if you don't know how to do things. You can learn slowly. No one is born with it." will do
This kind of thinking is very important, and you really can’t learn it. Some people have bad intentions and want to steal and play tricks everywhere. Some people think that it’s not their own land, so they don’t take it seriously. It was terrible.

Mrs. Li is not my Mrs. Li, Mrs. Li is everyone’s Mrs. Li. I have said this sentence many times, but many people still don’t understand it, but even if they don’t understand it, most people do it very well. They all take their errands very seriously.

However, I also know that there are some individuals who still want to fool the errands. If such people are found, they must be dealt with one by one. We can't let them spread, otherwise they will lead my Li family members astray.

There are rules that have been passed down for hundreds of years and thousands of years in the family's children. There are some who are not righteous, and there are not many who are broken.

I'm not worried about the public losers, they already have a set of family laws and regulations, the only thing I'm worried about is your newly established surname Zou.

They are all refugees, refugees, and beggars who fled from all directions. They formed their surnames. You see, the day before yesterday, when I was busy registering and registering household registration, seven white-eyed wolves fled overnight.

This is a trick of your heart, you just don't want to enter my Li family register, just say it out loud, even though your face is a bit ugly, but in the end you will be upright,
I allow you to leave, it's not a big deal, but you want to leave quietly, what's the matter?I, Mrs. Li, can eat people?
These seven families have ruined the name of our Li family. All the troops sent out by the Lin family of the imperial guards yesterday afternoon were taken back. They are all under custody at the moment. Tell me about the seven families. How should the fleeing farmer be dealt with? "

Li Yu looked at the crowd in front of him with interest, and Zou Shuyi said without thinking;

"If you break the rules, you will be dealt with according to the family law. No one can protect them. They are all to blame for themselves."

Tanchun nodded vigorously;

"That's right, what Manager Zou said is too right, it should be dealt with according to the family law."

Li Yu looked at a group of guards again. These guards are all the sons of the Li family for hundreds of years, and they have a very strong sense of belonging. To spoil Li's name is to spoil their own name. Unhappy, Ma Shijiu clenched his fists and said fiercely;
"Patriarch Qi, they should be killed on the spot in front of the clansmen."

"One does not go around."

"Beat them to death so that they can ruin our Li family's name."

"That's right, a group of white-eyed wolves were rescued by Alang when they were about to starve to death. Now they escaped overnight without saying a word. If you don't know, you think our Li family is mean to the people? They should be beaten to death."

Even Xichun, who is usually the most kind-hearted and doesn't like to talk too much, has a dark face;

"I want to report to you, your family has its own laws, and your clan has its rules. If you make a mistake, you should deal with it. You don't have to be too soft-hearted."

Li Yu shook his head;

"How to deal with them? They haven't had time to enter our Li family's household registration, and they are still free. We have no right to deal with others. Do we use family law? They are not among the 21 surnames, so let's use family rules. They are not members of the Li family. "

Ma Jiujiu said anxiously;

"But Patriarch, Ah Lang has sold himself for money back then. Some asked for money and some took food. They are members of our Li family when they were born, and they are also our Li family's ghosts when they die. They don't care about the sky. Yes, because there are signed documents in the mansion!"

Li Yu shook his head expressionlessly;

"What's the use of a signed document? It's an undeniable fact that they didn't enter your Li family's household registration. Besides, if you really killed them, our Li family's second wife's reputation as a mean servant will be confirmed. Li His name will really stink."

Li Yu let out a long sigh, and Zou Shuyi took the silk scarf brought by the guards, and carefully wiped Li Yu's hands without stopping;

"Then how does Mr. Lang want to deal with it? If they are allowed to leave safely, what will the rest of the tribe think, especially what do the more than 900 families with the surname Zou think?"

Li Yu didn't even want to say directly;

"I don't know what the clansmen think, but I also have my own way of handling things. Tomorrow, I will publicly deal with it in the square in the middle of Zhuangzi.

After collecting the money from them, it will be used to offset the original selling money, and then let them leave Lantian. As for how they live, I don't care.

What to eat and drink on the way has nothing to do with our Li family. At the beginning they came naked and left naked. This is not a bad conscience, and it does not conflict with the laws of the court. It is a lawsuit brought to Dali Temple , They also have to pay back our selling money.

Now that the new dynasty has just established, the imperial court also has laws. When they return to their hometown, they can settle down, distribute farm tools, and grow food. As long as they beg all the way back, they can survive. In fact, it is not difficult. It is nothing more than suffering on the road. It's nothing more than a meal, at least it's a way to survive, it's definitely not because we didn't do things well.

Only in this way can we undo the damage done to Li's second wife's name because of their escape, so that people from all over the world won't be able to point fingers. If the handling is too much, God knows what it will be like?
Just imagine, Li's second wife is now well-known across the country, and there are not a few people who are jealous. If we catch the handle, we will definitely add fuel to it. "
