Big man: I am the Champion Marquis!

Chapter 142 It’s done
Huo Xian had no doubt at all about the ability of Feng Xu and others to do things. Some things can be trusted when they are done by family members.

Looking at the flat ground in front of him, Huo Xian asked, "Are you doing everything according to what we said before?"

Feng Xu said with great certainty, "Don't worry, my lord. We are doing everything according to your orders. Lao Chen and I are watching over it personally. No matter whether it's cutting grass or digging a cellar, there is no ambiguity."

"That's all." Huo Xian smiled, and then said, "Okay, don't wait any longer, just start digging and opening the cellar."

Feng Xu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Sir, are we going to start digging now?"

Huo Xian thought about it carefully. He was also worried that opening the cellar directly would cause the forage to be quickly corroded by the air.

It shouldn't be like that. It's only been two or three months. It hasn't been buried for several years or hundreds of years. Such a situation shouldn't have occurred.

Besides, these are just some forage grasses, not something particularly precious. It is really not worth making a ceremony to open the cellar, etc. It is better to be simple and rough and open the cellar directly.

After figuring this out, Huo Xian smiled and said, "I think it should be no problem to just open the cellar."

Since Huo Xian said so, Feng Xu and others naturally would not have any objections. They just needed to do things according to what the prince said and not think too much about other things.

What is most in demand in Guanjun Village is young and strong people, and what is most in demand is naturally people who can work, and they are all very reliable.

At Huo Xian's command, someone immediately stepped forward and dug up the loose soil on the cellar. A closer look revealed that it was covered with a layer of straw.

Huo Xian was very satisfied that his family members could be relied upon to do things.

Layers of soil were dug up, and soon the cellar roof was exposed. Huo Xian signaled everyone to stand back a little to avoid any "poison gas" or the like.

After lifting the roof of the cellar, Huo Xian's eyes lit up. Although it was not the common green grass, the grass in the cellar was slightly darker in color, but it was definitely fresher grass.

"My Lord!" Chen Ju was also very excited, pointing at the cellar and shouting, "Fresh grass, this is really fresh grass!"

Huo Xian was naturally very happy and said, "Go and bring some horses and cows over, and bring some more cows over!"

The grass seemed to be preserved and looked fresh, but we still had to "taste" it to see how the animals reacted after eating it.

Huo Xian then looked at Liu Mo and said, "Go to the General's Mansion immediately and ask the General to come over. You can go a little slower, there's no need to rush."

"promise."

Liu Mo answered neatly, turned around and ran out of the village. This was a big deal, a real big deal.

Huo Xian directed the two young men to start getting some silage. They didn't mind the dirtiness and took a handful, observing it carefully and sniffing it slightly.

Feng Xu grabbed the silage and sniffed it, then said with a smile, "My Lord, it smells a bit strange, but it is the smell of grass after all."

Chen Ju also said in full approval, "I think so too. Your Excellency has really found a way to keep the grass alive through the winter!"

These may be the greatest significance of silage. It is extremely difficult to keep these forages through the winter in this day and age.

And everyone knows that although the dried grass can survive the winter, etc., that is hay, and the silage grass now has more moisture.

These are two completely different concepts, which means that these feeds can make it easier for livestock to survive the winter and even reduce fat loss.

As for labor costs and so on, you don’t need to worry about them. Nowadays, labor is the least valuable thing.

The cattle and horses that were brought in would not cry when they saw the silage. They had been eating hay for the past few months, which was as tasteless as chewing wax, and they really couldn't stand it.

Now that these fresh and tender grasses are right in front of me, I will naturally start to feast on them without any hesitation. This is the real delicacy.

Looking at the livestock eating silage, Huo Xian breathed a sigh of relief. This was the best thing and it should be this way.

The livestock are willing to eat the grass and seem to have a good appetite, which means that the experiment is a great success and has basically achieved the best results.

Huo Xian was beaming with joy and said, "Wait a minute, don't open the other cellars yet. Let other livestock eat the fodder first, except for the Pegasus."

It’s not that Huo Xian is not kind to the Arabian horses, but these celestial horses are simply too precious, so he decided to do some experiments on other livestock first, even if there are adverse reactions, he can afford it.

After saying this, Huo Xian turned and ran, "I'm going to the palace, you guys stay here!"

Chen Ju and others naturally hurried to follow, while Feng Xu and others maintained order and brought other livestock for experiments according to Huo Xian's instructions.

This is how things should be done. By continuously moving forward step by step, we will definitely be able to achieve some remarkable results, and maybe even bring more surprises.

Huo Xian turned over and rode on Yuanbao, and immediately ran towards Jianzhang Palace. Good things need to be shared, and some important things must be made known to the emperor to make him happy. The most important thing is not just the surprise, but to let the emperor know that although the Grand Marshal Hussar General is willful and flamboyant, he can always bring blessings.

This Marquis Guanjun, who was deeply loved by the emperor, was not only born rich and unconstrained, but also born with good fortune and could succeed in everything he did.

This is very important, because the emperor is becoming more and more superstitious and suspicious!
Huo Xian arrived at the Jianzhang Palace like the wind and saw Liu Che holding Lady Xing. This emperor also loved pleasure and women all his life.

"Your Majesty, let's leave the palace!" Huo Xian said straight to the point, "I have a great thing. It will be useful in future wars, and in the future for the court and the people's livelihood!"

Liu Che became interested, but still doubted, "Tell me what it is first. You are not trying to trick me into going hunting, are you?"

Liu Che liked hunting, so if Huo Xian tricked the emperor into going hunting, it wouldn't be a big problem. As long as the emperor had fun, he didn't need to worry about anything else.

Looking around, Huo Xian asked suspiciously, "Where is Chuntuo? Where did that old guy go?"

Liu Che said rather depressed and sadly, "He has caught a cold and has been unable to get up these past two days, so let him rest."

Huo Xian also felt a little uncomfortable. Chuntuo was not young anymore. If he was not seriously ill, he would not be given any special rest.

In this day and age, some serious illnesses are fine. Even a cold can kill people. Even emperors and nobles can't escape, let alone ordinary people.

Huo Xian opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, it will take a few more days before spring comes, isn't that right?"

Liu Che smiled and nodded, and reminded Huo Shan, "Shan'er, go on a tour after the spring begins. Don't find an excuse to run away this time."

This can be considered as a dark history, and it also shows that some things can be done once or twice but not repeatedly. Otherwise, even if you are deeply loved, people will inevitably feel annoyed.

"Your Majesty, I have prepared a lot of good things that will only be available in the spring!" Huo Xian said as he found Liu Che's clothes, "Your Majesty, just go out for a walk!"

Liu Che was both angry and amused, and said, "Tomorrow, I will make some arrangements and go hunting with you tomorrow. Is that okay?"

"Today!" Huo Xian said confidently, "Let my cousin go over there too. Send someone to tell him quickly!"

Liu Che stood up helplessly and let Huo Xian help him put on his coat. "Let your cousin go with you? It's fine if I go out of the palace with you, but if you do it on impulse like this, he will nag again."

This is also the truth. Prince Liu Ju is a rather prudent person. He would not like this kind of temporarily arranged itinerary, especially one that takes the emperor out of the palace. He would like it even less.

"I even asked someone to call the general." He smiled and said, "I didn't ask my aunt to go over as well. My aunt doesn't need to know about military and national affairs."

Liu Che was now interested. If the emperor, the crown prince and the general were all going there, it must be a big deal and it was naturally worth going to take a look.

Liu Ju hurried over and asked directly, "Why did the emperor suddenly want to leave the palace?"

Seeing Huo Xian next to him, Liu Ju understood instantly, "Xian'er, isn't this a bit abrupt?"

"Uncle, let me keep you in suspense for now!" Huo Xian said with a smile, "I have my eyes on your Pegasus. If I perform a great deed, you can give me the Pegasus as a reward. How about that?"

Seeing Huo Xian so confident, Liu Che asked with a smile, "Didn't you say you were going to take the general's horse away? Why are you thinking about your cousin's horse again?"

"I think your cousin's horse has become thinner, which is not good." Huo Xian said with a smile, "A fine horse should be used on the battlefield. It would be magnificent for a great general like me to ride a horse and gallop on the battlefield!"

Liu Ju said angrily, "You, when will you stop worrying? I've arranged a lot of pretty ladies for you, but you just went to catch thieves!"

After hearing what Liu Che said, he was helpless. To be honest, Huo Qubing and Huo Shan, father and son, were both raised by him, and in some ways they really looked like him, the emperor.

But when it comes to beauties, the father and son are exactly alike. They only like horses and weapons, and their minds are filled with thoughts of war.

Huo Xian smiled and said nothing. When he saw Liu Che swiftly climb onto the horse, he said, "Your Majesty, I have done a great deed. Can you give me a good horse as a reward?"

"Lead the way!" Liu Che did not respond, and said, "If nothing good happens today, I will lock you up in the palace!"

Liu Ju also smiled and said, "Father, this may not be enough. He is so willful, so let him get married after being locked up in the palace. If he makes great contributions, let him get married in two years."

Liu Che laughed and said, "Good! Your Highness is right!"

Now it was Huo Xian's turn to feel the pressure, but on second thought, it seemed that there was no need to be too nervous.

He had given this surprise today, "Your Majesty, cousin, how about not mentioning marriage before I am twenty-five?"

Liu Che and Liu Ju tacitly agreed not to speak. Twenty-five, that's too old!
