Chapter 323 Returning the favor
"Okay, is it good to have fun with a little gambling? "Changsun Chong is still very cautious. This means that the bet is too big and I won't play with you.
"Just block the mounts participating in the competition, and how about our Yongye Field?" Shi Lei raised the land deed in his hand and signaled.
"No problem. But my land is not as big as yours. Just don't feel like you are at a disadvantage." After hearing Shi Lei's bet, Changsun Chong agreed without hesitation.
Anyway, these things are not a great thing for him, Changsun Chong. They are just the result of his father's trip to the Turkic Republic.
Even if you really lose, you will be left behind and will definitely not be hurt.
But if you win, you can also make things difficult for Shi Lei and you can further communicate with Wuzhen Mosque, why not do it?
By the way, Changsun Chong still secretly stabbed Shi Lei.
"Then let's make up that." Shi Lei walked over and fought with Changsun, who was a certain distance away from them, and made a three-five. The bet was decided.
Shi Lei was not worried that the other party would regret it because of this. The eldest son of the eldest son of the Changsun family, Li Er, whom he admired the most, could not afford to lose that person.
The horse racing started soon, and there was no need to choose the venue. Just use this wasteland to finish the matter. Both sides found a few people to stop at the end and put their own flags over, so as to avoid going astray.
Changsun Chong took out his mount without any surprise, and the knight chose his Turkic shepherd slave.
Shi Lei randomly selected a spare war horse. It must have been him who came on the stage, which was a bit too expensive. The one who sent him here was Li Mu, a guy with a natural affinity with animals.
The mount is also quite distinctive. Not only has it been transformed by Shi Lei, but its special appearance made Changsun and others unable to help but take a look at it.
This war horse is a typical leepy type. What's more important is that the four long legs with imbalanced proportions make this guy look like a thin dog or a greyhound among dogs. This image is absolutely unforgettable.
There is nothing to say about the process of the competition. Although Changsun Chong's Qianli Horse is very impressive, he can't beat the modified war horse. He is still such a talented guy.
As for the knights, even if the Turkic herd slave knows horses, he is not as good as Li Mu, who has a certain ability to communicate with animals.
With the combination of the two, there was no accident like stumble in the middle, and no one dared to make trouble. Shi Lei's victory was a foregone conclusion.
"Oh, it seems that I'm lucky today. I won a little bit. It seems that even God doesn't like good people, and I'm always suffering from the loss. Then Changsun Dalang's gifts are worthy of receiving them."
Shi Lei looked ashamed at all, and he smiled so hard that he felt sincere. He waved his hand without hesitation and accepted Changsun Chong's land deed and Qianlima.
By the way, I also sarcastically said to the other party that we are good people, and the one on the other side must be a bad person.
I feel that the depression I was cheated before has relieved a lot. As expected, everyone is cheating each other, and it is better to have a favor to have a favor.
"Is it a small gambling happy? It can make the Shitou brother smile. This little lottery is nothing."
Although Changsun Chong tried hard to keep the smile on his face, he kept telling himself that these things were nothing. Shi Lei was cheated away by his own family, and there was a large area of wasteland. Sometimes he cried.
But after all, he had not yet reached his father's level of cultivation, and he truly did not show his emotions. Although his face was covered with a seemingly sincere smile, his stiff face had a vague feeling of gray at the bottom of the pot, and it didn't seem so indifferent no matter how it looked.
"I still dare to go to Wuzhen Mosque to pray for blessings, so I won't talk to Brother Shi anymore. We will take the opportunity to leave first."
I felt that I couldn't hold back my anger. In order to maintain my demeanor, Changsun Chong chose to say goodbye quickly.
After watching Shi Lei's hateful smug smile for a while, he was worried that he could not help but take action, so he let out a strong sigh.
However, after carefully measuring the force of both sides, he decided to go to Wuzhen Mosque to see if he could find an opportunity to make some trouble for Shi Lei.
After seeing Changsun Chong away, Shi Lei's face collapsed. Although it made the other party's little flesh hurt, how to use the huge land at hand is still a big problem.
If you can't turn him into a treasure, you will still feel that your family has been cheated. Although it is actually cheated, the feeling of discomfort will be very strong.
After carefully plucking up the things in my mind, especially the many mixed knowledge I had seen in later generations, Shi Lei finally had some ideas.
Especially when Shi Lei's eyes lit up when he saw the Qianlima who had just won from Changsun Chong and the land deed.
Perhaps this land can play a role of killing two birds with one stone. It may not only be able to utilize the land, but also to expel the Changsun family's industry.
Without telling the butler the answer directly, Shi Lei just smiled mysteriously and explained the butler the butler in this way.
No matter how you use this land, it is always inevitable to improve the ground. So Shi Lei told the housekeeper what he knew and about how to manage saline-alkali land, and asked him to arrange for manpower to do it first.
Professor Yuan, the father of hybrid rice in his previous life, once announced the news of his entry into sea rice research, and Shi Lei followed suit and read some related reports.
It is also indispensable for how to manage saline-alkali land, which comes in handy at this time.
But it is hard to say whether it is suitable for use. Just consider it to contribute to the Tang Dynasty and pay for improvement experiments by yourself.
Shi Lei only knew a rough idea, that is, he just gave a blind command. Anyway, the ultimate goal was not to rely on this piece of land to make money by farming.
Even if there are any cash crops that survive, it can only be considered an unexpected surprise, not Shi Lei’s main goal.
Shi Lei explained this measure roughly and knew only a few steps. First, he had to wash salt in the ground, pour water into the ground, dissolve the salt and guide it into the drainage ditch.
After that, the land and rake are needed, which are all for loosening the land, better promote the removal of salt and prevent further accumulation.
Then add organic fertilizer. There is no shortage of this family. It also has its own biological fermentation methods. The effect is much better than using livestock poop.
Finally, I planted the plants that Shi Lei mentioned, which are more suitable for treating saline-alkali land.
Shi Lei chose a very layered choice, including big trees such as aquatic willow and purple locust, as well as small trees such as ash, stinky toon, sand dates, saxony and wolfberry.
It can not only improve the conditions in the ground, but also prevent wind and sand. It also has certain economic value. If it is really planted, it can also be sold for money, which can be considered a killing of one stone.
As for the hundreds of acres of good land that I just won from Changsun Chong, there is naturally no reason to waste it. I just planted mulberry trees.
I have never had a real mulberry field at home, and I still have amber silkworms. I don’t even have fast-growing mulberry silkworms. This is not conducive to the high-end silk at home and further occupying the market.
Especially after knowing that the Changsun family has always occupied half of the high-end silk market, Shi Lei's desire to expand his silk production was much more urgent.
After carefully renovating his extremely majestic grassland horse king, Shi Lei decided that this would be his own special mount in the future.
He is indeed a strong man who can stand out among the many wild horses. After transformation, his physical fitness in all aspects must be significantly stronger than the horses Shi Lei had originally held.
Moreover, this black satin-like majestic horse looks really handsome, so it is worthy of his identity.
What's more, this divine horse was won back from the Changsun family. If you don't ride it to Chang'an City and show off, you will be sorry for your hard work.
Riding on the handsome new mount, Shi Lei and his guards set off back.
Since Mr. Hong has shown his sincerity and is indeed very helpful to him, he should give some help to the Beggars' Sect to improve their lives.
Maybe we can start by providing more job opportunities to old beggars.
