The First Happy King of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 664 Lower Grassroots
Facing the simple old man in the country, Li Muyun really didn't want to reveal his identity and cause him unnecessary worries, so after talking to him a few more words, he left the construction site with Mu Xin and Mu Yu, and turned to the farm in the mountains .

Because it was a temporary idea, the construction of the farm was not very perfect. At best, the construction of the main building was completed, and some auxiliary facilities could only be suspended due to the season.

Even so, it was already very good, it was many times better than climbing the ice and lying in the snow in the wild when I was a soldier. At least those disabled soldiers had a small nest here where they could avoid the wind and rain.

Li Muyun's arrival was warmly received. Many soldiers knew about Xiaoyao Wang, and some had seen him, so there was no need to conceal their identity here.

The three fat guys were also at the farm at this time, and some generals of the Sixteenth Guards who came to visit their old subordinates, saw Li Muyun coming, and clamored to find him for a drink.

Li Muyun greeted these guys happily, but he didn't agree to drink with them. After all, these people were all on leave from the military camp. If they drank and went back, they would probably be punished.

But even so, those women are still very happy, and they don't feel depressed about being rejected at all. Looking at the happy smiling faces of the former old subordinates, these people are actually very satisfied, and it doesn't matter whether they drink or not.

"Muyun, can you tell me that if you raise pigs, you raise pigs, so why do you have to keep the pig manure?" After saying hello, the third fat man asked while walking around the farm with Li Muyun.

"Pig manure is very useful, let me tell you." Li Muyun said proudly, "After simple processing, this stuff is the best fuel, and throwing it away is the biggest waste."

"Fuel? You don't want to burn it, do you?" The fat man showed an extremely strange expression, and said, "That smells so bad, can you bear it!"

Li Muyun snorted, looked at the fat man and said, "I don't understand even if I tell you, just wait until the spring of next year, just watch."

The fat man didn't save Li Muyun any face, he chuckled a few times and said, "Well, I'll wait for you in the spring of next year."

Li Muyun looked at the fat man speechlessly, for this ignorant guy, he really didn't know how to explain the benefits of methane to him, of course, in Tang Dynasty, except himself, no one knew what methane was.

But what does it matter? It doesn't really matter how the methane comes from, what matters is whether you can do it.

When the spring begins tomorrow, the biogas pipeline will be laid, and those villas built in the mountains will become the first batch of houses that use new fuels. I believe that after those "big households" have used this biogas, they will immediately give up the previous kind of firewood. Behavior.

Secondly, those livestock manures are not limited to producing biogas. After completing this mission, the residues left after fermentation can be reused as fertilizer and feed.

Thinking about it, the corners of Li Muyun's mouth turned up slightly, as if he saw a lot of copper coins flowing into his pocket.

People in Chang'an City secretly call him the King of Wealth. Li Muyun knows this, but it doesn't matter. He neither steals nor robs the money. Well deserved.

As for those who want to take advantage of him, they can come whenever they want. Anyway, even if they don't come, Li Muyun plans to give away all the money. After all, in terms of money, it's better to be happy alone than to be happy with others. It's serious to have money and everyone to spend it .

It is precisely because of this that all the businesses under Li Muyun's name are actually joint-stock. Almost all the bigwigs in the court have more or less some shares in it, and even Li Yuan and Li Er's shares are all occupied. big head.

"Hey, can you not laugh so coquettishly? It makes people look terrified." Just as Li Muyun was thinking about his own affairs, the third fat man interrupted his train of thought very inappropriately.

Li Muyun, who came back to his senses, turned his face and said ruthlessly to the fat man, "Fatty man, if you have the guts, try saying something again and see if I can throw you into the pigsty."

The third fat man didn't dare to say any more, and muttered, "You, you are killing a donkey, no, no, you are crossing a river and tearing down a bridge." The fat man felt that he had been scolded by killing a donkey, so he quickly changed his words .

Li Muyun thought it was a little funny, curled his lips and teased the fat man, "Hehe, I haven't learned much for a few days, and I know that crossing the river and tearing down the bridge is not easy."

"Cut, don't underestimate people, Fatty..." The fat man felt the chill behind his back halfway through his bragging, so he had to force himself to change his words: "Fatty, I am also one of the smartest people in Li's village. Can I come to Chang'an?" Shame on our village, right?"

Li Muyun glanced at the fat man: "Success, if you really don't want to be ashamed, how about I send you to the Imperial College in a few days?"

"Ah? I..." Fatty was famous for his elm-headed head when he was in Shuozhou. The thing he was most afraid of was reading. When he heard Li Muyun say this, he immediately fainted.

Seeing him like this, Li Muyun didn't force him anymore, and changed the subject and asked, "How many piglets are there in the arena right now?"

The fat man secretly heaved a sigh of relief, first he thanked Mantian gods and Buddhas, and then he said like a few treasures: "A total of 53 pigs, including 420 breeding pigs, [-] five old sows, [-] male cubs, and the rest They are all mother's cubs."

Li Muyun nodded: "Well, yes, it seems that you haven't been lazy during this time, but these are not enough, I will continue to collect as much as I have, and the standard is temporarily set at [-] heads."

Fatty was in a cold sweat listening to it, and muttered in dissatisfaction: "It's easy for you to say, as far as these pigs are concerned, we have already collected almost the entire Gyeonggi area, [-] pigs, I'm afraid you will have to collect the entire Tang Dynasty. Do a search."

Li Muyun didn't care about Fatty's difficulties, he continued without even looking at him, "Then go search, anyway, this farm will be a big source of income in the future, no matter how difficult it is, you have to deal with it. "

The third fat man shouted anxiously, "Then you should give me some manpower. Those students of yours will get me ten or eight of them, and I promise to get them all for you in half a year."

As the saying goes, the leader touches the mouth, and the subordinate loses his leg. The three fat people have a deep understanding of the pain.

Li Muyun just hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and rejected the fat man's request: "My students have other uses, so don't even think about it, but you can try writing a letter to that kid Wang Jie and see. Can he come and help you?"

"Wang Jie?" The fat man was stunned for a moment, and then he slapped his thigh: "Oh, I'm going, why did I forget him!" Instead, leave Li Muyun alone in an unknown corner of the farm.

This meant that Li Muyun had a good memory, and wandered out along the way he came. Otherwise, if the big farm didn't know how long it would take him to go out.

However, this trip to the farm really gave Li Muyun another feeling. Watching those soldiers with broken arms or legs struggling to move feed or some building materials, watching them Although his face was covered with sweat, there was still a smile on his face, and his heart seemed to be stabbed severely by something.

These soldiers have shed blood and fought their lives for Datang, but in the end they can only go home with a pitiful few pennies. Although there are breeding farms to provide them with some living security, compared with what they lost, The little help they get from the farm seems like nothing.

As for these soldiers who have lost part of their limbs, they don't have particularly high requirements. They don't care about the dilapidated living environment of the farm, nor do they care about the heavy physical labor on the farm. The enemy took part of their body, but they didn't care. Take away their optimism.

These veterans who came to the farm still have hope in their hearts and visions for the future. They believe that the county king who built the farm for them can be responsible for them and can always help them.

Thinking of this, Li Muyun felt that the burden on his body was heavier again, and those irresponsible thoughts in the past gradually faded away.

For these people, he must live well no matter what, and work hard to climb up. Only by standing higher can he help them better, so that he can live up to the trust these people have in him.

After returning to the city from the breeding farm, Li Muyun was depressed all the time. Mu Xin and Mu Yu saw that their young master seemed to have something on their minds, so they didn't intend to disturb him. Set aside a quiet environment.

However, Li Muyun wasn't really thinking about anything, unlike what Mu Xin and Mu Yu thought, at this time Xiaoyao Wang was shutting himself in the study and drawing something peacefully. All are hands and feet of some people.

Yes, it was hands and feet. Seeing those poor guys jumping around with one foot, or simply crawling on the ground, Li Muyun only felt pain in his heart, so he quickly thought of artificial limbs.

Although prosthetics are not very useful compared to the original ones, at least after they are used, those who have broken legs can stand up again, and those who have broken hands can go out on the street like a normal person again.

This painting by Li Muyun lasted for a whole day and night, and finally Mu Xin felt that something was wrong, so she notified Su Wanqing, and only then did she save her young master from a semi-crazy state.

"What? You said you can make those who have broken legs stand up again?" After asking what Li Muyun was doing, Su Wanqing's beautiful eyes widened in surprise, and she almost couldn't believe her ears.

Li Muyun nodded solemnly: "Of course it can make them stand up again, but generally speaking, things are somewhat troublesome. I need to find Lao Sun to discuss it carefully. Some things can only be resolved by him."
