Traveling through the early Tang Dynasty starts with hanging

Chapter 225 Characters
"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Li Shan with disheveled hair suddenly sat up from the bed, turned around and touched something under the pillow, with a hint of panic on his face.

"Lang Jun, Lang Jun!"

Hearing this address, and seeing Zhou's charming face from the side, Li Shan was startled for a moment before recovering, and slowly withdrew his right hand from under the pillow.

"What's the matter, Mr. Zhou?" Mrs. Zhou sat on the edge of the bed anxiously.

Xiaoman wrapped the quilt around Li Shan's body, touched his forehead again, "Mr. Wang, are you feeling well?"

Li Shan murmured vaguely, cleared his throat and said, "I had a dream..."

In fact, it was not a dream, but something that really happened in the previous life... After that highway rescue, Li Shan, who had been with the station for more than ten hours, went back to lie down, and the phone rang, but the exhausted Li Shan could not be disturbed Wake up, that time he was scolded by the teacher, he was so embarrassed.

Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, and opened the curtains, and the white light outside suddenly filled every corner of the room, causing Li Shan to cover his eyes.

"What time is it?"

"It's already past noon." Mrs. Zhou asked in a low voice: "The kitchen is still warming up the food, and the concubine is here to serve the Lord?"

"Yeah." Li Shan nodded, and asked again: "The wounded last night..."

"Everything is fine, Uncle Qi is placed in various houses, and no one has a fever."

Li Shan pursed his lips, pointed to the table, "Pour a glass of water first."

Xiaoman rushes to pour water, and serves Li Shan carefully, while Mrs. Zhou brings food in.

"Braised chicken nuggets?" Li Shan was a little surprised. After eating a piece of chicken, he asked again: "Rooster?"

Generally speaking, country people don't like to raise chickens. They eat a lot and even grab food. The key is that they don't lay eggs.

But raising chickens also requires a rooster, otherwise where would the chicks come from?
Therefore, chickens eaten in rural areas are usually hens, and roosters will not be easily killed.

"The one at Aunt Liu's house was frozen to death last night." Xiaoman picked out a chicken wing for Li Shan, "This time the snow is really heavy, and many livestock in the village were frozen to death... The chickens and ducks are still small. Several cattle and sheep froze to death."

"By the way, Mr. Lang likes to eat beef. My concubine asked Brother Zhu to take orders. I will leave all the beef to Mr. Wang."

Li Shan nodded indiscriminately, thinking that a few days ago, he was still thinking about adjusting the hot pot base, and thinking that he couldn't cook the beef, but now... the cattle in Zhujiagou were frozen to death, and the cattle and sheep in other villages must be frozen to death .

Mrs. Zhou glanced at Xiaoman, and said in a low voice: "The big yellow ox at the house of the personal guard Zhu Shitou froze to death, and Xiaoshitou cried...after the beginning of spring..."

Li Shan groaned, and then he realized that when he was a child in the countryside, he had done all kinds of work, and he was also good at farming, but at that time... tractors were used to plow the fields in the countryside, and there were no cattle anymore.

But in this era, and it was still in the north, there were no cattle for farming, so it would be troublesome to plow the land in spring.

It is also for this reason that during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, killing cattle was a serious crime.

"Dong dong dong."

Mrs. Zhou opened the door and asked a few words, then turned around and whispered, "It's Mo Xiang, Uncle Qi, Uncle Ling and the elders of the village are in the main hall..."

"Then we have to wait for the gentleman to finish his meal." Xiaoman said dissatisfiedly, "The gentleman was so tired last night, they..."

"Okay." Li Shan took a few mouthfuls of food, got up and asked Mrs. Zhou and Xiaoman to help her dress neatly.

Compared with intrigues with those powerful families and high-ranking officials, Li Shan actually prefers these things in Zhujiagou... Although there are intrigues, and although there are family problems, there is no danger in the end.

As soon as Li Shan entered the door, Zhu Wei pointed to the first chair above, "Da Lang, sit here!"

Li Shan didn't sit on it immediately, and looked at the chair carefully, with a surprised expression... It wasn't because the chair was placed at the top, but because of the leather jacket that was spread on the chair.

"That one?"

"That's the one." Ma Zhou said with a smile, "Ms. Zhou's shooting skills are superb, she just hit the tiger's eye, what a tiger skin, at least fifty bullets."

Li Shan touched a few of them curiously, and then sat down with the stove prepared by Mrs. Zhou, "Uncle Qi, everyone is well organized today. Uncle Fifth and Uncle Ninth are here too."

The village has always been headed by Zhu Wei, who ranks seventh. Zhu Li, the ninth uncle among his peers, has never been in charge of things. The fifth uncle, Wu, became a monk at Dongshan Temple and is now in charge of Dongshan Temple.

In addition, two outsiders Ling Jing and Ma Zhou were also there, as was Zhu Ba, Li Shan's most experienced bodyguard, and Zhu Shitou and Zhu Wu, who were in charge of Dongshan Temple's business.

"Mr. Ling mentioned it before I woke up." Zhu Wei cupped his hands to thank Ling Jing, and continued: "This heavy snowfall is really a natural disaster. I'm afraid that the dark storehouse of Dongshan Temple will be used in the spring, but I'm afraid it will happen in July last year."

Ling Jing said softly: "Before, there were not many people who knew about the secret storage of grain and rice. It was all arranged by Dongshan Temple and allocated money from the public account."

"However, if grain and rice are distributed...the news cannot be completely blocked. Once the news leaks...this heavy snowfall, there must be refugees in Jingzhao."

Li Shan nodded in agreement while listening, then turned to look at Zhu Ba, "Where's Brother Su?"

"The boss of the Su family is still patrolling outside." Zhu Wei said with a smile, "He first discussed this matter with me in private."

In fact, even if grain and rice were not distributed to the villagers from the hidden storehouse of Dongshan Temple, there would still be people spying on Zhujiagou... The incident in July last year is a clear proof.

Li Shan pondered for a while, then turned his head and asked, "Uncle Wu, Uncle Ninth?"

Uncle Wu touched his bald head, and said with a smile: "This is what Da Lang ordered, so just keep an eye on the dark warehouse."

"All listen to Dalang's orders." Uncle Jiu also nodded and said, "Before Dalang settled down, everyone in the village had a full meal and a hungry meal. Could it be that they are used to the good life and have forgotten the hard life?"

"Uncle Jiu's words are wrong." Li Shan smiled and said, "Naturally, life should be better and better. Who wants to live a hard life?"

"Da Lang is right!" Uncle Wu laughed and said, "If it was before, where would I have imagined that there would be a day when fine wine drank in my throat?!"

Uh, although he is a monk, Uncle Wu eats meat and drinks alcohol...sometimes he even acts as a Buddha of Joy.

After laughing for a while, Li Shan thought about it and said: "Before the spring, every family has grain and rice, and under the Li family, it is naturally the Li family that produces rice."

"After the beginning of spring, the He family was in trouble, and the Li family invested in the purchase of grain and rice... Uncle Qi, I know that the price of grain will inevitably skyrocket, but I still want to buy grain. Dongshan Temple's dark warehouse will never be used lightly."

The grains and rice stored in Dongshan Temple now have only one function, which is to supply wine for brewing. Other than that, they can only enter and exit. This will probably determine the survival of the entire Zhujiagou in the future.

"Sentry, security, and guarding Zhujiagou are naturally entrusted to Brother Su... It's overkill."

"All the frozen chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep in the village were purchased by the Li family at the original price."

"Zhu Ba, I will go to Chang'an later, so I will write a letter to the clerk of Chang'an County's yamen, and report it."

"When the spring comes, I will ask Li Demou to try to buy a few scalpers, and they will be used for public use."

Zhu Wei hesitated and said, "Da Lang, after the beginning of spring, we have to dig rivers and build houses, and the public account book is not enough..."

"It's not a problem." Ling Jing said with a light smile, "Huai Ren once said that there is Tao Zhu's skill."

"The public account is only used to buy food, no matter how expensive it is, we still have to buy it, but it's a little less." Li Shan shook his head and said, "Don't bother Qi Bo."

Yesterday morning, before the heavy snowfall, Changsun Chong, Du He, Li Zhaode, Yuchi Baolin, and Cheng Chumo all sent people to ask... Which restaurant did you buy the good wine from?
Originally, Li Shan was worried that baijiu would not adapt to this era, but now he is not afraid at all... The money must come rolling in next, otherwise he would not dare to say this.

Seeing the gratitude and admiration on the faces of Zhu Wei, Uncle Wu, Uncle Jiu, Zhu Ba, Zhu Shitou and others... Li Shan couldn't help pondering carefully in his heart.

I was not originally such a persona!

Kind but stingy, stabbing a knife in the back with a smile on his face... This is the character design of my previous life!
Could it be that he was led astray by his mother's way of benevolence and righteousness first?

Or is it because outsiders praise benevolence and righteousness, so you are intoxicated after being intoxicated?
