Prosperous Tang special forces

Chapter 296 Gathering
After entering the kitchen, Long Feiyu came out again, seeing him coming, Shishi glared at him and was about to speak.But Long Feiyu spoke first: "Shishi, you are right to come to my house today. I will make some new dishes in preparation for my birthday in a few days. You are here to taste."

Before Shi Shi opened her mouth, Li Zhen said dissatisfiedly: "Husband, we have been married for many years, and we have not seen you cooking. You will cook as soon as sister Shi Shi comes. Be careful that Zhang Yuan has opinions on you."

"Che, when Shishi and I met, you didn't know where you were. We are close buddies, and I always thought she was the helm of the Zhang family."

"Okay, how can I become your iron buddy as a woman. You want to use me as an experiment again, and there is no way."

"Just say you want to eat or not?"

"Eat, why not eat."

"Brother Long, why do you always let Sister Shishi try the dishes? I can do it too. And I was the one who publicized your cooking skills." Yuzhi asked with hope.

"Okay, Shishi has the pickiest mouth. If she says it's delicious, then no one else will have any objections."

"What did you say?" Shishi stared at Long Feiyu furiously.

"Hehe, I almost forgot, I'm here to get these sunflowers." Long Feiyu said, and quickly fled here with two baskets.Watching Long Feiyu flee, the group of people laughed again.

But seeing Feifei's sullen look, Ling'er said with concern: "Sister Feifei, what's the matter with you? Seeing that you are a little unhappy, you must be jealous, right?"

Feifei smiled and said, "What are you talking about? I'm just thinking about your second brother, who is so busy every day. For this family, for Datang, there is never a day's rest. How much time can there be in life, I really hope He can stop and take a good rest. Not for politics, not for the court, to live a few days for himself and live a few days of freedom."

"How is this possible? If you don't keep him busy at night, I'm afraid he won't even be able to sleep. He always sits up suddenly in the middle of the night, as if he had a nightmare. I'm so scared that I have to wait for him every time. Only dare to fall asleep in the middle of the night." Li Zhen said bitterly.

"A person will only do such a thing when he is worried and afraid. What is he afraid of? With his current status, there should be nothing worthy of his fear." Listening to Li Zhen's words , Shishi analyzed on the side.

"I don't know, Sister Feifei, will he be like this when he spends the night with you? Could he be afraid of me?" Li Zhen stared wide-eyed, afraid that Feifei would not come out.

Feifei smiled helplessly and said, "I'm afraid you won't be able to hold him to sleep when he sits up. He may have been stimulated in some way. There was no such thing in the past, and he has had this problem since he became the Minister of the Household Department. gone."

"Ah, hug him to sleep? Thank you Feifei, where did you put the dignity of a woman?" Shishi said with some taste.

Feifei smiled and did not answer, but instead looked at Wang Yan who was walking with two sheep not far away.Standing up from the stool with some doubts, he said, "Brother, what are you doing with two sheep?"

"This is the roasted whole lamb prepared for the birthday banquet. I brought two of them to show Long Feiyu the samples. If the size is right, I will take it. If it is not suitable, I will choose it."

"Sheep? Just buy it from the butcher, and I'll trouble you, the Viscount of Tang Dynasty, to make a trip."

"The princess doesn't know. The quantity I want this time is too large. The butcher doesn't have it, and even I may not get it. Isn't this just asking people to raise it?"

"How many sheep?"

"One hundred thousand heads."

"One hundred thousand? Are you kidding me? Just one sheep can bankrupt the Dragon House."

Wang Yan chuckled, and said without words: "Feifei, where is Long Feiyu? I have to let him inspect the goods and give me the money so I can go shopping."

"Cut, Wang Yan, do you still have humanity? You have been running around with Long Feiyu all these years, and how much money you have earned, you are almost becoming the richest man in the Tang Dynasty. You are even asking for money by licking your face when you are asked to buy a few sheep , is really wolf-hearted."

"The princess's words are a bit too much. This person is very strange. Even if he is the best friend, he will not spend other people's money. But if it is a relative, it is different. Take Han Shilang as an example. The first time I met him on the street, he had to pay for everything he bought. After I paid for him once, he would pay me back even if I owed a copper coin. I have no choice but to give these things to him. He also Not going to."

"Yo, Wang Yan, did you buy the sheep back so quickly?" Long Feiyu asked while walking with a plate in his hand.

Seeing Pan Wangyan suddenly let go of the rope to catch the sheep, he smiled and stretched out his hand to catch it.Long Feiyu turned sideways, hid and looked at him and said, "What about you, did you gather the sheep so quickly?"

"How can it be so fast, first pull two samples for you to see, just this size, if I can do it, I will send them a letter to Feige immediately. Let them drive the flock here."

Long Feiyu looked at the two sheep, patted them and said: "Yes, just buy according to this, yes, it is better to buy from Longxi and Xiazhou, yes, such a long team, there will be disasters along the way." For the crops of the people, tell them to count all the losses along the way, and then find someone to compensate the people for the food. If you want money, give it. If you want money, give it. If you want money, go to my father, you Take 5 taels of gold first, and implement the wine matter as soon as possible."

"My lord, a large group of businessmen came outside the door and said they want to see you." Ah Fu walked over from the corridor and said to Long Feiyu.

"Oh, let them in."

After a while, a group of businessmen walked in from the door, and when they saw Long Feiyu, they said excitedly: "Long Xiang, our winery is willing to provide you with the wine you need for this time for free."

"Yes, our flour mill provides all the food."

"And I am willing to provide all the meat for this feast."

"Hey, Yang Tupiao, don't you see that I'm here? I've already bought the [-] sheep needed for the banquet." Wang Yan said domineeringly.

"Hmph, Wang Yan, you are not benevolent for being rich. How much money Xiang Long has led us to earn all these years, you still dare to take money. You really killed a big family of Long. Although we businessmen are after profits, we are also humane. Although Our identities cannot be compared with the dragons, but the sheep needed for this feast, not to mention 20, I will give [-] as well."

"Baldy, can't you see that you've made a lot of money in the past few years, aren't you a little arrogant?"

"Why are you a green-eyed fly everywhere? You are a trader and now you are competing with me for business. Can you find so many sheep in just a few days?"

"I'm a green-eyed fly, I'm eyeing you now, what do you say you are?"

"Flies are only looking for poop. This is the Dragon Mansion. The two of you want to have a duel between flies and poop. Let's go outside the mansion. We also need Prime Minister Long to write an order so that we can buy materials according to the order."

"What's the matter with you two of us quarreling? Unscrupulous fans, don't think that if you open a flour mill, you can be whitened with white flour." Wang Yan suddenly stopped the quarrel with Bald Piao and began to reverse the direction.

"Yes, black heart fan, this is the Dragon Mansion, do you think this is your home?" Bald Piao said also indignantly.

"Okay, I have already asked Wang Yan to figure out a solution for the sheep, but since you have the ability, Boss Yang, you can discuss with Wang Yan and see if you can get a group of good sheep as soon as possible. As for everyone They are all top talents in all walks of life. You can roughly estimate the seasonings needed to marinate the sheep, and the things needed to set up a hundred banquets. My father is in the living room. You go to discuss with him first, and then we can talk about it after we are done. Ah Fu took them there, and when he left, he gave everyone the cost calculation."

"What is Long Xiang talking about? Does he look down on us? We said it was free, how can we ask for money?"

"That's right, although we are businessmen, we are not so philistine, right?"

"Okay, I appreciate your kindness. I am a member of the imperial court. If I accept your gift, what should I do if other people use various reasons to make money at any banquet in the future? Everything I need this time will be provided by the Dragon Mansion. Provided, please don't make it difficult for me. If you are really sorry, just finish these things for me as quickly as possible. How about it?"

Everyone thought about it for a while, but nodded helplessly.Someone even said angrily: "Miss Long is very sorry for my humble status, and I am grateful. I originally wanted to take advantage of this banquet to express my gratitude, but unexpectedly, Xiang Long refused."

"Okay, the future is long. If you really treat Long Feiyu as a friend, you shouldn't say these things. Ah Fu led them to the living room."

"Yes"

Just as everyone was sent into the living room, a shout came from outside the gate: "We are back." The voice of the fourth child appeared in the courtyard.

Then a group of people followed into the yard. Long Feiyu put the plate in the pavilion and said to a group of women, "Try it, this is the melon seeds made from the sunflower just now. They can be fried with salt or baked with butter." Yes, it tastes good, try it."

After speaking, Long Feiyu went out of the pavilion and looked at the leader, the fourth child, and said, "You came back so early, it seems that you have found a place?"

"That's right, the Weihe River beach can't be seen at a glance now, and a big flood has widened its river course by two kilometers to the north. Now it's all right, all the problems have been solved. I heard that where the Dragon Mansion is going to hold a big banquet, Villagers from more than a dozen surrounding villages mobilized together to clear up the weeds in the fringe areas like locusts crossing the border.”

"Well, the day after tomorrow, you can find someone to divide the area, and let their county magistrates bring their own people. They must arrange according to their respective areas, and don't walk around. Two 10,000+ people will be separated in the blink of an eye. Get lost, and at the same time draw a team of troops from the prison guards to strengthen the guard, so that nothing happens at that time."

Hearing Long Feiyu's arrangement, Su Dingfang smiled and said: "Marshal, don't worry, there shouldn't be any problems. I'll take a team of soldiers to have a look tomorrow."

Long Feiyu nodded, and suddenly said with a smile: "Xiao Jun, Zhang Yuan, Liu Zhenbei, you guys are all experts in pioneering. I don't know how to work in the fields?"

"Just kidding, I just come here occasionally. Hetao has already been developed by the marshal, and my only role is to guard and prevent riots among various ethnic groups."

"The situation where I am is the same as Hetao."

"Xiao Jun, what about you?"

"Me? The barren grass is desolate. If I don't go to open up wasteland and take the lead, how can others start it. Marshal, you don't know that when those Han people in the past first went there, they didn't work all day long and waited for relief from the court. Or I just tried to escape and ran back to the Central Plains, and I didn’t want to stay there. In order to intercept them, I set up sentry posts four or five times a day and took turns to garrison them. Later, Shouyi borrowed some of my soldiers to maintain the situation. "

"Oh, then how did you keep them in the end?"

"After several wars, almost all the adult men of foreign races have died. Only those women are left. I will let them choose their own husbands according to the policy you said. As the saying goes, those people are moved over. The people had enough to eat and drink, and they slowly came together when they had nothing to do. In less than a year, many people gave birth to children. They have to feed their children, but the food from the imperial court is only given to one person, so they have no choice but to open up wasteland."

"Very good, since you have mature experience, I will transfer 20 to you in a while."

"Ah? Marshal, 20 is already enough, why are you still moving?"

"You're just wandering around the east, have you been to the north?"

"I've been there, what's the matter?"

"What I want is not the piece of land you are plowing now, but the piece of land in the north, that piece of black land. The black soil there is more precious than the purple soil of the land of abundance in Yizhou. It's a pity that the conditions are not mature. If it is mature once It is not impossible to transfer millions of people. However, such a large-scale migration will cause problems, so this time, we will transfer 20 people to the land like last time, and you will still be the pioneer."

"Marshal, please forgive me. If it doesn't work, I'll kneel down for you." Xiao Jun was about to kneel down, but fortunately Long Feiyu stopped him and said, "Don't get excited, I'll send you more capable people this time." , There are people from all walks of life in the Qiuzhi Academy. When you go back, I will bring it to you. Let them build houses, plan land, and remediate rivers. You will also have the group of Jinshi who took the imperial examination this year."

"Jinshi? You mean the group of second-generation ancestors? No, I'd better find someone from the Qiuzhi Academy. Those people are more reliable. I can't afford Jinshi."

"It's not for you to use, but for you to take them to the frontier to see. The hardships of frontier pioneers, when you become an official, you have to be responsible for the people. Don't let the embarrassing things like today's military generals and scholars play with steamed buns. That's it."

"Okay, but those ethnic minorities are living in that generation at this time, and we will have conflicts with them when we go."

"They are also the people of my Great Tang now, and they should obey my Great Tang's laws. You are not only a prefect but also a military commander. The knife in your hand is not rusted, right?"

"No, I'm just waiting for the war between Silla and Baekje, but there's nothing I can do if they don't move. Xue Li has nothing to do all day, and he spends all day joining forces on other people's borders, scaring those Silla People are gathering their forces every day to prevent him from attacking suddenly."

"It's good if you don't have any. It's good that none of you are wearing armor. That's good. Xiao Jun, you are an expert in farming. Take them to the backyard to dig out the things in the field for me. I will use them in a few days."

"Oops, I have a headache."

"I have a stomachache, I can't do it, I can't do it, I'm going down to rest."

As soon as Long Feiyu finished speaking, someone shouted and prepared to run away. Long Feiyu chuckled and said, "I know an earthen method that can cure the disease. Take the fourth child and Liu'er to the field in the backyard, dig a hole, bury it in and expose it." Take one head at a time, and it will almost heal by night."

"Oh, it's strange, why did my stomach stop hurting all of a sudden, fourth brother, do you still have a headache?"

The fourth child shook his head and said, "The sky was spinning just now, how could it be all right suddenly. Let's go to the fields to dig the ground."
