At the beginning, Emperor Yang of Sui was kidnapped

Chapter 62 Pig Farm

Yue Wangfu.

Duan Da knelt down in front of Yang Tong, with tears in his eyes and nose, pleading for his younger brother.

Standing aside expressionlessly, he cupped his hands and said, "Duan Xuankun, the owner of the Zuixian Pavilion, used his power to bully others, occupied the market, sold private salt, and used the public to benefit his own interests. I implore His Highness to punish him severely."

When Duan Da heard the words, a glint of haze flashed in his eyes, and he burst into tears immediately: "His Royal Highness, I only have such a younger brother, please His Highness let him live..."

"When my mother was there in the past, she often held the hand of the minister, saying that the brother was fighting against the wall, and he was humiliated from the outside. Pass……"

"May Your Highness look at my minister's hard work for Sui these years, and forgive him once..."

Duan Da kowtowed and burst into tears.

After some crying, the 15-year-old Yang Tong couldn't help but feel soft-hearted. He looked at Lu Chu and said, "Master Lu, according to Gu, most of the offenders were servants of the Duan family. Maybe Duan Xuankun didn't know about it, so please forgive him this time." , just give me a lesson.”

Lu Chu was taken aback for a moment, but seeing Yang Tong's soft heart, he still bowed and saluted, and said, "It's up to His Highness to decide."

Later, a major case against Duan Da, initiated by Lu Chu, was settled with Duan Da, who was in his forties, crying.

After leaving the Yue Palace, on the way home, Lu Chu felt emotional: "Your brother is as good as God expected, and it's exactly right."

Being bullied by the three major restaurants and the Duan family, Xu Mu, who must repay him, is naturally unwilling to suffer this loss.

On the night when Yang Tong came to Xianweiju, he ordered Fan Zhu and Wang Zhao to look for evidence that the Duan family oppressed the people and sold illegal salt.

Since the Duan family wanted to seize his method of making refined salt, Xu Mu would not be polite.

After collecting the evidence, it was sent directly to Lu Chu's mansion. After Lu Chu saw it, he was furious and said that he would beg the king of Yue to punish Duan's family severely.

At least Duan Xuankun sold a huge amount of private salt, so he was sure to die.

But Xu Mu was not so optimistic.

Although he has not had in-depth contact with Yang Tong, Xu Mu does not believe that Yang Tong can ruthlessly execute Duan Xuankun, especially since Yang Tong was taught by the honest man Lu Chu...

At that time, I asked Lu Chu not to force her, and not to destroy the relationship with Yang Tong's teacher and student.

Therefore, Lu Chu was filled with emotion, and when he returned to his residence, he found that Xu Mu was actually carrying a few food boxes, and he was here again...

"Xian...brother...really...it's...forecast...such as...God...ah..." Seeing Xu Mu, Lu Chu was so excited that he couldn't help but stuttered again.

"Your Highness... Your Majesty... Really... No... Right... Duan... The Duan family... Do it..."

At the dinner table, Lu Chu recounted what happened in the Yue Palace today while feasting.

Xu Mu nodded, all of this was within his expectations.

If the Duan family was so easy to overthrow, they wouldn't be listed as Luoyang's seven nobles.

"But old Lu, if you speak up today, you may be hated by Duan Da. You must be careful in the future." During the dinner, Xu Mu reminded after listening.

Lu Chu was full of disdain, and said righteously: "Duan Da is no more than a flatterer, how can I be afraid of him?"

Xu Mu nodded and didn't try to persuade him any more.

Honest people are like this, they have always been full of disdain for Xiaoxiao's generation.

In the original history, Lu Chu died at the hands of Wang Shichong and Duan Da in the end.

But this time, Xu Mu will not let history repeat itself.

"Old Lu, the Imperial College has been open for a few days, have you considered organizing some extracurricular activities... Ahem, for example, going out for a spring outing, and I happen to be in He Ruozhuang outside the city, which can be the first choice for outings. "

During the dinner, Xu Mu casually suggested while eating the braised fish made by the chef of Xianweiju.

"After all, Confucius, the old man, said that a gentleman has six skills, and he can't be biased."

Lu Chu frowned, and searched all the ancient books in his memory, but he didn't find that Confucius said this.

"My dear brother, you are here again. When did Confucius say that?" Lu Chu smiled heartily, and at this moment his mood calmed down, and he began to speak quickly.

In this era, Cheng-Zhu Neo-Confucianism had not yet developed to the extreme, and the status of Confucius had not been elevated to an inviolable position.

So Xu Mu could tease Confucius a little bit in his words, and Lu Chu was not angry.

But Xu Mu's all-round development is really not empty talk among the literati of this era.

Since the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, there have been eight-pillar countries, which are known as the most powerful families in the world, and there is no one more than these eight families.

Under the influence of these eight schools, literati all over the world pay attention to an all-round development.

If you go out, you will be a general, and if you go in, you will be a phase.

You can lead the army when you get on a horse, and you can be a herdsman when you get off a horse.

Whether it is the late He Ruobi, Han Qinhu, or Li Jing, Qin Shubao and others who made great contributions to the founding of the Tang Dynasty.

They are all typical representatives of coming and going.

Yun Wen Yun Wu, is the demeanor of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

So Xu Mu's proposal was approved by Lu Chu.

He pondered for a while, then said: "Half a month later, it will be the Beginning of Spring, how about setting it on that day?"

Xu Mu's eyes lit up, and he estimated the time...

In a few days, Kong Xingyue will finish digging the tunnel, and then start to steal food.

And in He Ruozhuang, [-] cargo ships have been prepared, ready to transport grain at any time, go down the river, and send it directly to Yangcheng.

At that time, it will be almost... kidnap the group of supervisors, and send them to Yangcheng together with the food.

"So good."

Xu Mu grinned and said, "I, Xianweiju, prepared the meals for the Imperial College students that day!"

After all, it is convenient to add sweat medicine to the meal.

Just overwhelm them with drugs, and when they wake up, they have already been sent to Yangcheng.

It only takes half a day for He Ruozhuang to go down the Tongji Canal to reach the vicinity of Yangcheng. In addition, in these days, Lao Zhang is mainly repairing the moat. With the help of tens of thousands of laborers, he has almost completed the plan to surround the city!
This waterway will continuously transport talents to Wanmin City in the future.

In the end, when it was decided to go outing in Lichun, Xu Mu bid farewell and left Lu Chu's residence.

Go straight out of the city and go to He Ruozhuang.

Fan Zhu came to report that since the beating of the Duan family this time, the business of the three major restaurants has been in decline, but they have not come to do anything wrong.

The development of Xianweiju is very stable, with a daily income of 120 guan and a daily net profit of [-] guan!

Fan Zhu was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

Although he was born in a business family, he never thought that making money in the world would be so easy.

Just rented a restaurant like this, and then... crushed the three major restaurants, and there was a faint tendency to become the number one restaurant in Luoyang.

With a daily income of two hundred guan, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a daily income.

But the more this happened, the more Fan Zhu admired Xu Mu. All of this was completely popular under Xu Mu's various operations and propaganda.

For example, storytelling, nursery rhymes...

For example, tea and tea on the second floor, wine on the third floor, and an additional fee for going upstairs...

After experiencing a business operation, Fan Zhu now admires Xu Mu very much, and he no longer dares to doubt Xu Mu's decision-making casually.

After Xu Mu got on the right track at Xianweiju, he was ready to focus on the construction of He Ruozhuang.

He Ruozhuang.

Xu Mu summoned two swineherds, even though they were covering their noses, there was still an unpleasant smell.

"Are you sure you're pregnant?" Xu Mu asked with raised eyebrows.

He came to He Ruozhuang this time mainly because of the pregnancy problem of the two big white pigs.

Because two swineherds sent word that the sow was pregnant...

This made Xu Mu extremely excited, and after confirming the outing with Lu Chu, he left the city without stopping.

The expressions of the two pigherds were also very excited at this time, and they said seriously: "Don't dare to lie to the master, these two babies have not been in heat for five full days, and they haven't been checked again and again, they haven't bled for these five days."

Xu Mu: "..."

To be honest, he understands without heat, but bleeding...he doesn't understand.

Another swineherd was more clever, and quickly explained: "It's like this. Sows have menstruation just like women. If they become pregnant, they won't bleed anymore."

After hearing this, Xu Mu suddenly realized, looking at these two swineherds, they are young, probably in their early 20s, so they know so much?

Unknowingly, he had already included these two in the list of candidates for Wanmin City.

Wanmin City is currently short of meat, but due to the limited area and the lack of professional talents, it is impossible to breed breeding pigs in large quantities, so the breeding farm has not been established.

In the end, in desperation, Xu Mu took out two of the few large white pigs bred so hard in the research institute.

Prepare to raise outside Luoyang city.

This He Ruozhuang, Xu Mu planned to build it into a temporary military stronghold, but on the surface, he planned to use it as a pig farm.

In this state, no one would suspect that the group of supervisors would disappear here...

"Okay, you've done a good job! When they give birth to piglets, each of you will reward you with money!"

Xu Mu rewarded meritorious ministers very generously, said in a deep voice.

The two swineherds immediately fell to their knees, very excited.

They have been raising pigs all their lives, and everyone else looks down on their craftsmanship, only the master thinks so highly of them.

We must raise this batch of pigs well and build He Ruozhuang into a large pig farm to repay the owner...

The two pigherds secretly made up their minds and began to prepare for the pig farm, pig pen and other matters.

Xu Mu approved all of their suggestions.

He Ruobi probably never imagined until his death that the military fortress he worked so hard to build was completely changed by Xu Mu and turned into a pig farm.

In addition to preparing to build He Ruozhuang into a pig farm, Xu Mu narrowed down a scope and completely remodeled He Ruozhuang.

It is divided into outer village and inner village.

The outer village is naturally a pig farm, while the inner village... has built a two-foot-high earthen wall, dug a trench, and turned it into a real military fortress.

Moreover, he dug a tunnel under Neizhuang. Once He Ruozhuang is exposed in the future, he can use the tunnel to lead to other places at any time and retreat in time.

It can be said that for his own life, Xu Mu racked his brains and got along with various methods to ensure his safety.

Who let myself...do the big thing of rebellion.

The key industry is not easy to do, especially at the end of the Sui Dynasty, there are dozens of peers, and the pressure of competition is very high.
