Chapter 23 Busy Spring Ploughing
The problem of the cow is not a problem at all. Money can make the devil push the mill. When paying a certain amount of reward, that is, adding more wine every day, Ji directly promised to give Liu Shuhan fifty oxen, and even spared the money.
This is not their kindness, but considerable benefits. Although the wine added only twenty jars a day, over the years, as long as they maintain a good relationship with Liu Feiyun and the others, they will make more.
Liu Shuhan was naturally very grateful for this and gave him several jars of top-notch wine, which made his contact person Ji Shu even more happy, saying that if there is a need in the future, Ji will definitely not sit idly by.
The cow was got, but how to transport it back is a nerve-wracking question. Although there are only fifty heads, the goal of getting together is obvious.
Finally, the cows were scattered in different places to trade, and then three people drove one cow in groups, one was investigated, one was held, and one was swept the tail. This was a real test.
But they were careful, but Ji had no intention of exploring, and even offered to make a secret transaction. The interests were entangled. Since they were not ready to fight against Liu Feiyun and others, they naturally could not let other forces seize the blame.
That night, the two sides were transferred, and the cow was secretly driven to the agreed location for transactions.
"These are five cows, and we all delivered the other cows according to the agreed location." The one who came into contact with Liu Feiyun here was Ji Shu.
"Thank you then." Liu Shuhan signaled the person behind him to take over, and then clasped his fists and said, "This time, Ji took action with righteousness, we will not forget this kindness. If the output of wine increases in the future, we will think of Ji at the first time."
Isn’t Ji doing this just for this sentence? Ji Shu hurriedly said: “Looking forward to cooperation with you. If you have any needs in the future, Ji will definitely do whatever he can.”
The transaction was completed and everyone dispersed again. Liu Shuhan and his group also acted separately, erasing all traces and driving the cattle back to the valley.
Everyone in the valley understood that the owner of this valley bought a lot of cows and came back as their next farming helper. These days they have started preparing for the cowshed.
There are also those magical tools that may not be known about the functions of others, but the plow has changed, and the effect is what they have seen with their own eyes, so how to avoid them being happy.
Although they are slaves, they naturally would not refuse to be more relaxed. Moreover, the development of the valley and all kinds of things that they had never seen before made them feel the beauty of the future.
The cow was transported back, and Liu Feiyun just looked at it curiously. He had never seen a living cow since he entered the city, and he just missed his childhood.
But just remembering him, he then had a new idea.
Before, his energy was basically in industry. In this society, agriculture is the foundation. Food needs to be grown, and other animals and plants also need to be added to the valleys. For example, fruits, chickens, ducks, sheep, etc., especially horses, which are the most important means of transportation in this era and are also part of the great combat power. The valley is not small in area, and there are many grass on the hillsides, so breeding and reproduction should not be a problem.
He said to Liu Shuhan, who was commanding, "Brother Liu, we still lack a lot of things in the valley. We need to buy a batch of chickens, ducks, sheep, etc., which can enrich our ingredients, and meat can provide more energy. Melons, fruits, etc. also need to make a batch of them, which can provide everyone with richer nutrition."
Regarding Liu Feiyun's sudden request, Liu Shuhan gave him a blank look and said, "Brother Feiyun, just let me rest for a while, I'm almost busy."
"Uh." Liu Shuhan said this, as if he had to do anything, he seemed to be really tired of him. However, the things he said were not uncommon. He said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Brother Liu has more rest next time. We have almost enough staff and many talents have been trained. If Brother Liu is not an important thing, just tell them to do it."
"Yes." Liu Shuhan obviously understood that although those who are capable work hard, he cannot do everything himself.
In the following days, houses such as chickens, ducks and sheep in the valley were built, according to modern concepts, ventilation and feces were treated, and the faucets were regularly disinfected with lime.
In a blink of an eye, with the help of plows and cattle, hundreds of acres of fertile land were quickly reclaimed. If Liu Feiyun had not stopped it in time, they would have reclaimed more.
There is no way to do this. For these people, the more cultivated land, the better, which means more harvest will be.
However, Liu Feiyun did not agree so. If there were too many farmlands and more people needed to be managed, he would not be able to put his labor on farming. Moreover, there were so many fields, according to his vision, the yield would not be low.
The fields were plowed out, and water storage was needed to turn them into paddy fields. Water wheels were born in this era. There were water wheels, but after Liu Feiyun and others' improvement, the effect was better and other production could be used well. Then, the farm fertilizer added to the septic tank accumulated fertility to ensure the grain output.
In the following time, most of the labor force in the valley was used to cultivate farming, work from sunrise and rest from sunset. One acre of wasteland changed tremendously with everyone's efforts.
More than a month passed in a blink of an eye, and the paddy fields were lush and the rice was growing well. Adhering to ecological farming, the paddy fields were arranged by Liu Feiyun to put fish in. The chickens were driven out from time to time to solve some pests, and their feces became the best nutrient for fish and rice. Of course, ducks dare not let them come, otherwise these little fish would not suffer.
Green mountains and clear waters, chickens and ducks are flocking, and fat fish jump out of the water from time to time. There are also many red and green fruit vines. I believe that in the near future, they will bring delicious fruit food to Liu Feiyun and the others.
Everything in the valley is moving in a good direction. In addition to taking a break, Liu Feiyun occasionally has other ideas on a whim, such as beer, beverages, and fruit wines like wine. Spring has come, will summer be far away? It is time to add something to your summer.
Ideas give birth to factories, labor force is arranged one by one, and all arrangements are orderly.
On that day, Liu Feiyun looked at the person in front of her helplessly. The little princess Li Yu was spoiled by him, or the people in the valley. He was just a little girl, and the sister of the owner of the valley. She was eating and playing, and everyone was very good to her.
The little guy was holding a cute little duck at this time and was not letting go. His body was dirty and his face was stained with a few mud. The maid next to him was very anxious.
