Everyone, this is my temporary opinion. If there are any mistakes or omissions, please feel free to point them out. If you have any good suggestions, if there are any inconveniences in each village, garrison, or workshop, you can send me a note after today.

As the saying goes: One person's wisdom is short, but everyone's wisdom is long. If you have different opinions in the future, you can all explain it.

What Liangshan Township is today depends on the efforts of everyone, and it cannot be achieved by Zhao alone. Everyone is gathering firewood and the flames are high. I hope that from now on, all brothers will work together to protect this world. "

After saying that, Zhao Zhen raised his wine glass and said, "Brothers, if you drink this cup to the full, Heliangshan Township will prosper and all brothers will have enough food and clothing."

Everyone raised their glasses together, and laughter continued for a while. There were more than a dozen villagers approaching, taking turns holding the glasses and serving the wine.

After drinking till night, everyone dispersed.

The next day, everyone returned to their respective places. Because the three passes were not completed yet, they asked Jiao Ting and Tao Zongwang to take care of them. Zhao Zhen left Du Qian to teach the 72nd Taizu Long Stick.

One taught carefully, and the other learned seriously. From morning to night, Zhao Zhen finally memorized the routine.

I practiced martial arts for a day today. Although my body was tired, my spirit was exciting. Zhao Zhen went to wash up first, and arranged a banquet at night to drink with Du Qian and Han Bolong.

Today, Ding Chou sent an official document, and Zhao Zhen read it. It was indeed a problem caused by moving the chicken farm to the mountain. Weasels on the mountain often steal chickens, and now more than 30 of them have been killed.

Although Li Ji was invited to lead the hunt for seven or eight weasels, there were still weasels stealing chickens at night. In the past few days, Ding Chou mobilized the households in Gushu Village to work together and come up with an idea, which he also heard. I don't know if it is useful. It is said that chickens raised in the mountains need to be mixed with geese. Geese are the best defense against chicken thieves such as weasels and foxes.

Therefore, Ding Chou hopes to transport thirty or fifty geese that are kept on the tidal flats to guard the chicken farm.

Zhao Zhen sent two villagers to invite Zhao Sanmu and Li Shitou, the oldest in the village, to the village. These two people are now in their fifties and sixteens, and both are first-level bankers. Although he just took office recently, there is no potential to be tapped. But he has more knowledge than others.

After receiving the gift and serving tea, Zhao Zhen asked: "Third Uncle, Second Uncle Li, I invite you two to come to the village today because I really have something to ask you."

Zhao Sanmu said: "Erlang, what's the matter? Just ask, now Xixi Village is becoming more and more prosperous under your leadership. If there is anything I can do to help, I just give you instructions." Li Shitou nodded at the side. echoed.

Zhao Zhen said: "I raise many big chickens on the west mountain. Now we have attracted weasels. Thirty to fifty chickens have been bitten to death. Although we have killed some weasels, we cannot stop them. You two are knowledgeable. Do you have any ideas?"

Zhao Sanmu took a breath and said: "This thing is the most vengeful. Now that we have killed some, I am afraid it will not let it go."

Li Shitou also frowned and said: "That's right. This thing is the most evil and vengeful."

Li Shitou suddenly patted his thigh and said: "I got it. Third brother, do you remember that weasels happened in Dongxi Village more than 20 years ago?"

Zhao Sanmu also said: "Yes, that's what happened." The two of them told the story in detail.

It turned out that Chao Taigong in Dongxi Village also raised many chickens, and weasels bit two or three hundred of them to death. He listened to the words of a traveling doctor and put a group of geese into the chicken coop at night. The next day, five weasels were picked out of the chicken coop. All of them were blue and purple. They all said that they were strangled to death by the geese. Since then, there have been no more weasels in the chicken farm.

Zhao Zhen thanked the two men, gave them two pieces of fine cloth, and sent them out of the farm.

After sending them away, Zhao Zhen ordered Zhao Yuanli to use a bullock cart to transport 50 geese to the Kushutun chicken farm today to see if they can really drive away the weasels.

At night, Zhao Zhen was drinking with Ruan Xiaoer, Du Qian, and Han Bolong. When they were drinking happily, Zhao Yuanli came to report that a big man outside the farm wanted to see the owner of the farm.
