The new stewards were indeed experts, and the affairs of the mansion were quickly started. After the rented grain was put into the warehouse, they immediately began to raise the fence and renovate the courtyard. At this time, the weather was getting cooler.Zhao Tun also seemed to have come out of the 'shadow' of the assassination. Every day at dawn, he started to take a routine morning walk again, but now it was much more lively than before. A cool looking guard.

"Hey, if I have two more beautiful younger sisters by my side, I will be more like a playboy!" Zhao Tang shook his head and thought with a sigh, but there is no way, what happened last time scared everyone. Personally, Zhao Tun can't even leave the courtyard.

Zhao Tun walked around the garden twice, and suddenly saw some people busy with something in front of the rockery, turned his face to Jianxi and said: "Jianxi, is there really a python there, let's go and see!"

"Second Master, don't run on the little one anymore, I'm still sweating when I think about it!" Jian Xi said with a bitter face.

"Hee hee, don't be afraid now, the guards are behind you!" Zhao Tang turned his head and pouted angrily at the two people a few steps behind.

After finishing speaking, he walked over first, and several people were putting something on the roof of a room, "Uncle Li, what are they doing?" Zhao Tang asked the new old gardener who was at the side.

"Second Master, let's go for an early walk!" Old Li hurriedly saluted, "The weather is getting cold, those delicate flowers and plants are afraid of freezing, we are repairing the greenhouse."

"Oh, then what are they pressing on the roof?" Zhao Tang pointed to the person above and asked again.

"Second Lord, that's Mingwa, which can let sunlight in!" Old Li took up a piece of Mingwa and showed it to Zhao Tong.

"Isn't this a fish scale?" Zhao Tang took it and looked at it carefully and said in surprise, this fish scale is about the size of an adult's palm, as thin as a cicada's wing, although opaque, it will never hinder the sunlight from shining through.

"That's right, these are the scales of giant fish in the sea. It costs more than ten yuan a piece, and it takes more than twenty pieces to cover the roof!" Old Li replied, he felt a little distressed, and the money can be used for three meals of snacks for his family. months.

Zhao Tang ignored Old Li's nagging, staring at the fish scales in his hand in a daze. In this era, there is no glass, let alone plastic film, but they can think of using fish scales to make a greenhouse. It seems that people's wisdom is really infinite, "Jianxi, you go back Immediately find the supervisor, and build me a greenhouse in the garden, and I will tell you how to do it later, and it must be done within ten days!" He thought for a while and said in an unquestionable tone.

"Second Master, what did you think of again, why did you do this?" Although Jianxi was used to seeing the prince's 'nonsense', it still made him hard to understand.

"Whispering, I'm turning somersaults inside. Do you care? If you're told to do it, do it right away!" Zhao Tong gave him a stare and said, shaking his hands and walking back.

"Hey, a child's casual words are worth tens of pennies, what a prodigal!" Old Li shook his head and sighed while looking at Zhao Tama's back.

"Hehe, Old Li, don't worry about it. They don't need money. See if that dog is enough to feed your family for five years!" The guard walking behind said to Old Li with a wry smile. Zhao Tun, the 'prodigal son', doesn't like him very much.

······

Although building a warm house was a temporary idea, Zhao Tun still wanted to find something to do for himself. Living like a parasite with nothing to do after eating too much every day was hard, and besides, he had seen the dining room start preparing winter vegetables two days ago , but they are all things like radishes and cabbage. Even if these two things are eaten in different ways, they will have to be eaten until the first batch of new vegetables come out in early summer next year. It will take several months.

Jian Xi's efficiency is really good. Five days later, an arched greenhouse covering an area of ​​two acres has been completed. It may be because the prince wants to use this place as a playground, and the entire greenhouse is built with high-quality wood. Yes, it is spacious, bright, and well ventilated, and a well was dug in the middle according to the prince's request, but no one knows exactly what the prince is going to do.

The prince's next move still caused a sensation in the whole house, the prince wants to farm the land!He recruited more than a dozen young men who were still doing 'induction training', and each sent a shovel into the greenhouse to level the land, open canals and dig furrows. After a few days, under Zhao Tian's command, the greenhouse had completely changed. So, a large piece of land has been divided into long and long vegetable beds. Zhao Tuo has measured the distance of each long with steps, and he requires each row to be straight and straight, which looks neat and tidy like a huge chessboard. .

Zhao Tong had been the farm manager for several years in his previous life, and he was an expert at farming, even the most advanced soilless cultivation.

"Second Lord, are you going to farm?" Jian Xi wiped the sweat off Zhao Tong's face with a towel and said.

"Yeah, can't you?" Zhao Tong asked with a smile.

"Prince farming is something that servants do. You are a prince, how can you do these things?" Jian Xi said hesitantly.

"Hehe, the prince is not superficial. The prince also needs to eat, drink, shit and fart. We are all the same person. Father has to farm by himself every spring, so why not me!" Zhao Tang said nonchalantly.

"Second master..." Seeing the joy, he still tried to persuade him.

"Stop talking!" Zhao Tun waved his hand to stop Jianxi's chatter, and said to Fengxi who was on the ground: "Fangxi, everyone has worked hard these days, you go to the kitchen and order a big pot of mutton to be stewed at noon today , I also eat here, I won’t go back!”

"Okay, Second Master, I'm going to spread the message right now!" Feng Xi raised his sleeve and wiped the sweat off his face.

"Hey, Fengxi, wait a minute, I'll go with you." Jianxi was now afraid of Zhao Tun from the bottom of his heart, and dared not disobey him, so he had to find an excuse to report to Huang Jingchen.

"Everyone has been busy for a long time, come and rest for a while!" Zhao Tong stood up and greeted the servants who were still busy. Hearing Zhao Tuo's greeting, everyone gathered together. There were no chairs or benches here, and everyone sat on the floor.

"What's your name, and how old are you?" Zhao Tang asked a young boy who seemed to be the oldest, and he could tell that everyone seemed to be headed by him.

"Back to the second master, the younger one's name is Zhao Ren, and he's twelve this year!" The servant replied respectfully.

"Oh, what about you?" Zhao Tang pointed to another one and asked.

"Little Zhao Yi, it's eleven this year!"

"Little Zhao Li, this year is also twelve!"

·······

"Little Zhao Yong, this year's eleventh!" The servants reported their names and ages one by one without further instructions from Zhao Tang. Zhao Tong also figured out that these servants had changed their surnames. Honestly and courageously listed their names, they have become his own servants, sharing weal and woe with him, that is to say, if their home is ransacked in the future, none of them will be able to escape!

"Xin Zhao, I think you are so small, can you have eleven? You lied about it?" Zhao Tong handed him a bowl of tea soup prepared for himself, and asked with a smile.

"The little one is really eleven, but he is small..." Zhao Xin explained, his little face was flushed, and tears were about to flow down.

"Okay, I believe it, don't worry, drink the tea!" Zhao Tong said with a smile, he felt like returning to the army in his previous life, he was chatting with a group of recruits who had just joined the army, he asked this question Where is the hometown, ask if there are any brothers and sisters in that one, and ask them how their life in the mansion is now.The children didn't have any scheming, seeing that the prince was very kind, and they were just children like them, so they gradually let go of their guard. It didn't take long for a group of people to accept the prince as a new friend.

Chatting with these boys, Zhao Tun felt very uncomfortable. These children (in his mind, these people are children) are all hard-working people. Some of them had their fathers who died during the expedition to Xixia, and they were lonely. Wuyi, people took the opportunity to kidnap and sell them, some had a large family and had to sell them if they couldn't live on, at this time he thanked God for some, he was not the most unlucky compared to them, at least he became a prince Dangdang.

At noon, Jian Xi really brought two large pots of stewed mutton according to the prince's order. These boys may have not seen the meat for a long time, their eyes are green, and they don't care about so many rules. The pot of meat was eaten clean.Zhao Tang also joined in the fun, grabbing a bowl with everyone. After the meal, everyone's feelings were drawn in again, and they felt that the prince is a good person.

"Zhao Ren, you should trim the vegetable bed according to this standard this afternoon, otherwise there will be no meat to eat in the evening!" Zhao Tuo demonstrated, using a shovel to make the vegetable bed neat and tidy, and raised his head to the crowd. Said.

"Second Master, don't worry, we will definitely fix him up today!" Before Zhao Ren could answer, everyone agreed in unison.

"Okay, Jianxi, if everyone tidies up the ground tonight, meat will be added to the dinner!" Zhao Tang said loudly, and the enthusiasm of the servants was mobilized again, but Jianxi nodded with a bitter face. Huang Jingchen had already been asked for instructions, and the old guy gave a word, let him come as long as the prince is happy, as long as there is no accident.

For the next few days, Zhao Tun soaked in the warm shed after breakfast every day, commanded everyone to water the vegetable field once, sprinkled the horse manure pulled from the stable, and after double turning and leveling, sprinkled The rapeseed was planted and the seedlings were raised, but at this time the weather was getting colder and colder, and it was the late autumn of the rustling!

After a few autumn rains, the weather is getting colder every day, and the vegetables in the greenhouse have sprouted, and we need to cover them with straw curtains at night to keep warm.On the sixth day of October, it was time to move. The Summer Courtyard had been renovated a few days ago. Today, Zhao Tun moved from the Winter Garden to the Summer Courtyard.
