Datang Happy Landlord

Chapter 603;
Chapter 570;

Lijiazhuang, Lantian County.

It has been three days since Li Yu came back, he had a good rest, and today he led a large group of people to inspect the place where the animals are raised with the breakfast.

After walking unhurriedly for half an hour, the group arrived at the northernmost livestock area planned by the imperial court for Li Yu in Lijiazhuang. Looking around, thousands of acres of land were surrounded by red bricks.

The Liu family's three chief stewards, who were in charge of raising livestock, and a group of second stewards surrounded Li Yu.

"Look, sir, the southernmost one is the pig house for raising pigs. Since the completion of the construction, it took five days to drive all the wild boars and domestic pigs in the mountain den over there. The sows are housed separately, the piglets leave the sows after they don’t need to nurse, and the boars that are used for breeding are kept in another pen, and all the boars that are not used for breeding are fanned out. At present, there are 310 five pigs in total.”

Li Yu didn't enter the gate, but walked around the courtyard wall of the farm and talked;
"Pick out all the ones that are not suitable for breeding, and sell the ones that are sufficient in quantity, or those that are no longer growing, and the small merchants who sell pork will naturally come to buy if the wind is heard."

"It's my lord, don't tell me. Recently, small merchants who sell pork and mutton in Chang'an City often come to our village to inquire when they will be able to sell it. There has been no pork in Chang'an City for a long time, so there is no need to worry about selling it."

Li Yu nodded and looked at the drainage ditch and septic tank behind the pig farm;

"There has been no meat for so long, everyone in Chang'an City is greedy, especially now that iron pot cooking has become popular all over the country, the meat is delicious, and pork is not too expensive. In the years to come , Pork will be sold all over the north and south.

Let's accumulate experience here. After gaining experience, we will open one pig farm in every ten provinces in the world. Ten years later, every state will open one pig farm. All the people in Datang will come to eat our pig farms. Pork, at that time was called the real money. "

After Li Yu finished speaking, the members of the Li Clan around him cheered for joy. Every time the words of the patriarch came true, none of them failed. In the eyes of the Li Clan's Erfang Clan, it was like the stars descending from the sky. inner……

"Lang Jun, are you looking at these drains?"

"Well, it's well built, but it's not too wide. The servants will have to work hard in the future, but it's pretty good to be able to do this for the first time. You can't be picky. Let's go and have a look inside the pig farm. .”

"It's Mr. Lang."

"Look, sir, all the pig houses are facing south, with a length of more than 200 steps from east to west, and 72 rows from north to south, neatly arranged."

"Not bad, good job. The pigs eat pig grass, which can save some food, but they can't just eat pig grass blindly. They should be mixed with some food, so that they can grow faster."

"Yes, sir, the servants are doing a good job. The servants who are in charge of the errands go out to cut pig grass every day, and many clan members also go to cut grass and bring it to the pig farm when they are free."

"Well, that's good, this is also a sow?"

Li Yu who had just walked to a row of pig houses stopped, and the chief steward next to him nodded directly;

"Yes, sir, it is a little smaller, but if you don't want all of this size, you will have to sell too many."

"Small farmers think, just sell this size directly, and there is no use wasting food if you keep it. How big can the piglets born by such a small sow grow? Judging by its appearance, it must have given birth to piglets. I'm going to see its cubs."

"It's Mr. Lang."

Manager Liu agreed and turned his head to ask;
"Who is in charge of No. [-] C?"

A second steward immediately stepped out of the crowd;

"If you go back to the boss, the villain is in charge of the third row of the third row, the third row, the fourth row, the fifth row, and the cub at this end is in the third penultimate pigsty at the westernmost end of this row."

After hearing this, Li Yu didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the west. A large group of people came to stand in front of the third-to-last pig house that the second manager said, and Li Yu observed carefully;
"This must be a strong and strong boar. There are six in total. Obviously, this sow is not suitable for breeding. It will be sold directly at that time. Of the six cubs, the two largest ones will be kept, and the other four Sell ​​it and use it when you grow up."

"It's Mr. Lang."

Li Yu wandered around without missing a single spot. He looked over the entire pig farm and selected more than 100 sows that were not suitable for breeding pigs. Manager Liu next to him frowned in distress.

"You don't have to worry about things, Mr. Liu. It seems spectacular to keep these things, but in the future, the piglets will grow too slowly, and they will not be strong when they grow up. It is a waste of manpower and food. I would rather start slowly. To produce high-quality products, sell unsuitable male and female varieties, and keep the ones that can develop slowly.”

"Yes, obey the order of your lord."

"Okay, let's go to the sheep shed."

"Yes."

Li Yu was in a very comfortable mood when he came to the big yard where the sheep were raised;
"Okay, okay, are there so many wild yellow sheep? Well done, I'm afraid this will kill all the nearby wild yellow sheep?"

"If you go back to my lord, the arrester will send animals from time to time, and I will talk to my subordinates a lot. They will always keep your instructions in mind, lord, and keep a few groups around when doing things, so don't worry about catching them." wild sheep.

The reason why we have arrested so many people is that our troops are orderly, with one or two men, women and children dispatched, so they can move faster, and the money given to them by Mr. Lang is also sufficient, so they don’t have to worry about food and drink, and we have food in our clan. I always do one thing when I come and go, and the experience is accumulated quickly.

All of these add up to make things easy, but even so, apart from the thriving flocks of sheep left nearby, there is no need to capture them. At this moment, our clansmen are all looking for them in the mountains hundreds of miles away, and sending sheep back and forth It took a long time, just like this month, only sent back twice, and there were less than a hundred of them in one size. "

"Don't worry, aren't there still goats bought from everywhere?"

"Yes sir, although there are quite a few caught, they are insignificant compared with the ones bought, but there are also disadvantages. We all know that we sell sheep, so the price is getting higher and higher, and it can't be given to farmers. The price is so high that people will beat them to death and not sell them. In order to meet the amount you asked for, sir, every time the servants go out to collect sheep, they will come back full of anger. Now the price of buying sheep is almost equal to the price of the previous two. I really feel distressed No way, some of the second managers below took money out with tears in their eyes. The subordinates said a woman's opinion, these are the foundation of our family, and they throw tens of thousands of money out every now and then... There are also some rumors, and now it is said that the people in the second room are really stunned... take double the price to collect sheep, and make fun of our brains... subordinate... oh..."

Li Yu patted Mrs. Liu's biological eldest brother on the shoulder and comforted him in a pleasant manner;

"The head of the clan can understand the mood of the chief steward, and also knows that the people of the clan are distressed, but what we want to do is to provide endless food and drink for future generations. After all the hardships, only someone who pays can have the enjoyment of our children and grandchildren. Today, our hard work and experience, in exchange for the prosperity and stability of future generations, it is worth it!

Common people and peasants are mostly short-sighted people, so it is best to see the wind and drive up the rudder. It is normal to take advantage of the opportunity to raise the price of sheep. Today, others come to kill our family's money. In the future, we will have the final say on how much a catty of mutton will be in the world!
When we make the business of raising sheep so that every state has such a sheep shed, what we earn back will be a thousand times the capital, and let the outsiders be proud, don't worry about it! "

"Then sir, we still have to go around collecting sheep?"

"Of course, those who are close to the Central Plains should be taken back to Lantian, and those who are close to Longxi's old den will be brought back to their old dens, and the people there will be arranged to graze. There are too many people in Longxi, and there are few sheep and pigs, so life is not easy. Don’t sell it, just eat it for the clan.”

"It's Mr. Lang, my subordinates will remember."

"Not only do we have to harvest, but we also have to harvest a lot. I want to collect all the sheep in the world, so that they will have no meat to eat. Whoever keeps the breeding sheep and does not sell it will take three times and four times. Throwing money at them, and taking back the sheep from the hands of the common people, we can sell as much as we want! Hmph! As long as the problem can be solved by money, it is not a problem!"

As soon as Li Yu's heroic words uttered, all the members of the Li clan around him stiffened to varying degrees.

Liu Niangzi's eldest brother agreed loudly;

"Okay! This subordinate obeys!"

Li Yu let out a loud voice;
"Let's go, let's go see the cowshed."

A group of people followed behind Li Yu talking and laughing, and walked north for a while before entering the yard of the cowshed.

Li Yu frowned as soon as he entered the yard;

"Who is in charge of this row? It's so messy?"

Liu Niangzi's second brother is also popular. He finally became the chief steward, his status suddenly raised, he is respected everywhere, and he is also conscientious in his errands. Today, the head of the family encountered this for the first time when he came here... Turning his head and shouting angrily ;
"What's the matter? Recently, the old man is only busy with other things, so he didn't come for five days, so he became like this?"

"As for the big manager, the eighth son of the third house is in charge of the two cowsheds here. I heard that the seventeenth aunt of the third house is dying. These days, the eighth brother and his brothers are very busy. Come to clean it when it's not on, and then go back quickly..."

Before the servant finished speaking, Li Yu's expression relaxed;

"Not guilty! Manager Liu, don't get angry. Don't blame him for being filial and negligent. Otherwise, we will all become unfilial and rebellious sons in the future. Our Erfang family will not be far from perishing."

Once he heard the reason, Liu Jiaerlang also calmed down his anger;

"It's Mr. Lang. If my subordinates don't come here for five days, there are some mistakes. If I don't know the specific reason and get angry randomly, my subordinates are also guilty."

Liu Niangzi, the number one steward in the backyard who had been following Li Yu, hurriedly spoke;
"Qi Langjun, the second brother's family has just given birth to two grandchildren recently, many clansmen came to congratulate him, and the elder brother is also very busy."

Li Yu smiled and said;

"Since you don't come once every five days, it must be something else, and it's not a crime."

"Thank you sir."

After Li Yu finished speaking, she turned to look at Lady Liu;
"Isn't the lady worried this time? You rushed to defend before you even said anything. What are you afraid of? Can someone come to make things difficult for your elder brother?"

Miss Liu was flushed from being squeezed;

"Back to my lord, my mother and my compatriots can't help thinking about it. The three elder brothers of the slave family are all honest and honest people, and they are not good at defending themselves. If they really made a mistake, the lord will not dare to talk too much if he wants to do the same to the slave family."

Li Yu stared at Miss Liu with a smile;
"Yeah?"

Mrs. Liu bowed her head in embarrassment and nodded again. Li Yu laughed and walked forward. The three chief stewards of the Liu family, who raised animals in captivity, casually glanced at their little girl, thinking in their hearts;

"A Niang has traveled all over the country with the previous patriarchs, and the emperor has served five teas, and she has been beautiful all her life. This vision is also extremely vicious, and the heirs she has chosen are also very good!

This youngest girl has been unsuccessful for more than ten years. She never thought that she can obey the words of the patriarch of this generation even in her 30s. Now she is one of the most powerful managers in the family. I heard that the patriarch is here often. The little girl is resting in the room, but she is thin-skinned, and she is most afraid of people saying this. Isn't he and others just relying on the pride of the girl to become a big manager? "

In fact, Mrs. Liu doesn't need to care about it at all. In this era, the masters of five surnames and seven kings are all the same in the world. Not only are they in charge of life and death,

And it is extremely noble and has the highest priority of male rights. Li Yu's status is the head of the clan. If it sounds good, there are tens of thousands of clansmen in the second room, but if it is bad, it is a master who leads tens of thousands of servants and slaves!
Not to mention the bodies of the servants, even their lives belong to Li Yu!Even if you go to the court to kill the servants, you will be told that you can't win!Therefore, no matter which family Li Yu fell in love with, no one dared to say anything nonsense. Besides, it was a deep-rooted thinking left over from thousands of years. It would be extremely happy for any woman to be favored by the patriarch!

Let’s talk about Lin Wudi’s second daughter, Lin Bawang. As a father, Lin Wudi doesn’t want to say much, but he has asked his own woman countless times, and he has told his wife to teach his daughter the experience of serving others. A while ago, Li Yu finally asked Lin Bawang to come on After waiting on the couch, the clansmen respected Lin Wudi even more when they saw Lin Wudi.

Earlier, Lin Wudi's daughter was confiscated, but she was not asked to sit on the couch to serve her once. Lin Wudi's old Aye couldn't bear it anymore. He asked Lin Wudi twice in private, and scolded his second son Lin Wudi for no reason. pause.

Lin Wudi was also full of bitterness. The Lin family's blood finally produced a patriarch's concubine, who was also a daughter of the patriarch's line. The entire Lin family was very happy. When Bawang Lin was not on duty, he went back and everyone treated him as the chief steward. dear.

But the head of the family has not asked his daughter to serve on the couch for a long time. What do the clansmen think of this?Lin Wudi is also competitive. He couldn't hold his head up for two or three months in a row. In private, it was rumored that Lin Wudi couldn't do what the patriarch liked... This time it's all right. Once the team returns, Lin Bawang will serve the patriarch for five or six days. The matter spread wildly, and Lin Wudi raised his head and walked.

This year is the year of the rise of the Lin family. First, the patriarch got close to the Lin family, then returned all the military power to the Lin family, and then took Lin Wudi's daughter as a concubine. So he sent a fast horse to send a letter back to the old Aye to report that the Patriarch gave Lin Bawang a job, and then chose three women from Li's second wife as concubines! !

Originally, the Lin family had kept this matter under wraps, but the brothers of the older generation of the Lin family made a fuss, and there were only three places to come and go, and the brothers of the same generation of the head of the Lin family quit.

All the elders of the Lin family were unanimous this time, thinking that the lineage of the head of the Lin family already has Bawang Lin, and the remaining three places should be allocated to the elders of the previous generation who have been indifferent for a long time, and the older generation in their 80s. We all came out on crutches several times to speak.

The head of the Lin family was forced to be speechless. As a result, this matter spread throughout the Li family's second-bedroom family before Li Yu's team returned. In another name...

As a result, the patriarchs with more than 20 surnames, and the most prestigious elders of each family visited Patriarch Lin's house every day, bringing various gifts, and all the people inside and outside here came to ask for places. A fierce man who is as powerful as Qin Qiong pretends to be sick and dare not see anyone...

This shows how terrible the way of thinking that has been slavish for nearly a thousand years is?Not to mention Mrs. Liu's man is gone, even if he is still alive, it is not too much for Li Yu to summon Mrs. Liu to serve her!
