Mixing ancient times with Taobao

Chapter 71 Confidante
Clouds passed by the sunset in a hurry, and the ground was covered with a layer of golden red. The Qianhusuo, which had been bustling all day, slowly calmed down.

The land is small and the population is large, with more than 2000 mu of land. It is said that the autumn harvest is tight, but in fact one day is enough for harvesting.

Everyone looked at the rice piled high, feeling like they were dreaming.

One thousand mu of paddy fields harvested 96 catties of grain, with an average yield of about 800 per mu, which is too scary!

If they had more land...

Some military households clenched their fists tightly, thinking of the fields occupied by the rich and powerful inexplicably in Qianhu, a wave of hatred was ignited in their hearts!
That was originally their land!
What they occupy are all good paddy fields!

If there were more paddy fields and such good seeds, they would be able to live a life that they never imagined before, and they would no longer have to worry about starvation. Damn those rich and powerful!
The fire of hatred was burning in the hearts of the military households, and suddenly they felt that it would be good if such a great Ming died!Bai Baihu is always testing them these days, testing whether they are willing to go with the adults.There is no need to ask now, just for this, they have all done it with Mr. Zuo to the end!Even if it is a rebellion! !
The grain was moved into the warehouse one after another, and the work of drying and threshing the grain had to be done in anticipation of the good weather.The military households who know carpentry in the Qianhu Office are also busy.They are making manual threshing machines according to the drawings given by Zoff.

The threshing machine drawing given by Zuo Fu is the threshing machine used in the Republic of China. It can use manpower and animal power. It is generally a wooden structure. Only a few key parts need to use gears. This thing is fine, and it is too troublesome to build it by hand. And it may not be suitable, so Guanyu had to engage in another "labor army" and sent some suitable gears and related parts.

Fortunately, these craftsmen are very smart. After reading the blueprints, they can make things out with Zuo Fu's slight instructions.

After working for several days, the food was finally bagged and put into the warehouse.

The fish in the rice fields were also fished out and put into ponds of various sizes in the Qianhusuo.These ponds had been dredged before, running water was diverted, fences were built, and there was no need to worry about the fish dying or running away.

At the same time, Liu Runiang also went out to contact various restaurants to sell fish and crabs.As for the ducks in the rice fields, they were also driven into the ponds. The number of ducks is limited, and everyone does not plan to sell them. It is better to keep them for laying eggs or eat them yourself.

A bumper harvest is undoubtedly the most gratifying thing. For thousands of years, Chinese farmers have worked hard with their faces to the loess and their backs to the sky, just for one season's harvest. Except for the New Year, they are only willing to eat something good at this time .

After working hard these days, as the boss of the Thousand Households Institute, Zuo Dayou couldn't help but express himself.They killed a few pigs, bought a few jars of water and wine, and set up a flowing banquet on the training ground of Qianhusuo.

Everyone drank and sang, and when they were excited about eating, they marched in line, Zuo Fu looked in a daze.

It seems that it didn't take long for these people to change their personalities, and they felt their hearts burning up just watching them.

I clenched my hands involuntarily, and my belief in my heart was much stronger: I can win!You must be able to escape this chaotic world and find a paradise!

Everyone was drunk that night.

A warehouse full of grain, miraculous seeds, no need to drink wine, you are drunk...

After a happy night, when the sun rose from the east, Zuo Dayou got up, and after freshening up, he went to Zhu Cihong's room as usual, and after paying his respects, he said: "My lord, I'm going to recruit some refugees."

Zhu Cihong nodded, "Your Excellency, you can arrange it yourself, you don't need to tell me."

Zuo Dayou touched the back of his head and said, "I don't feel at ease if I don't talk to you."

After hearing this, Zhu Cihong pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "If my lord treats me differently from others, I'm afraid it will reveal my identity. This is your lord's guard, not mine."

"This is not the minister's guard, this is Daming's..."

Zuo Dayou twitched his lips, finally heaved a long sigh, and started the conversation: "A lot of refugees have come from the north these days, and I see that many of them are not bad. When you really have something, you should also have more self-preservation power."

Zhu Cihong nodded, sighed and said: "The common people are displaced, poorly clothed and hungry, it's all the fault of my Zhu family..."

As soon as he said this, Zuo Dayou's eyes immediately turned red, and he quickly clasped his fists and said, "It's all corrupt officials and corrupt officials, son, don't blame yourself!"

"Inappropriate employment and ineffective supervision, how can a few corrupt officials wash away the guilt of my Zhu family?"

He shook his head, looked out the window, and murmured: "In a few days, the hibiscus will bloom..."

After a moment of silence, he said again: "Mu Furong, frost-resistant flowers, frost-invaded and exposed, but beautiful, taking up the beauty of late autumn...Master Zuo, tell me, do I still have strength?"

Zuo Dayou shivered, bowed hurriedly and said, "I am a great Ming..."

"Eternal ages? Huh..."

Zhu Cihong shook his head, "My lord, you don't need to comfort me anymore, I think my Zhu family is exhausted. No matter how beautiful the hibiscus is, it will never escape the flowers blooming and withering, and it will be nothing but a handful of loess at the foot That's all..."

Zuo Dayou didn't know how to answer the conversation.To be honest, he's not very good at these.

If you want him to say, why think so much?Since you only want to be a commoner, you should let it go completely.It's hard to let go, it's hard to lift, and it's not yourself who suffers in the end?Run or do it, it's that simple!
Thinking about it, some outrageous thoughts came to mind: When is it all?My prince!It's not the time for Spring and Autumn to be sad!

Xu Shi realized that he was showing too much emotion, Zhu Cihong slowly withdrew his gaze, and said softly: "Your Excellency, let's get busy, don't worry about me."

Zuo Dayou hurriedly bowed and said, "Yes, young master, don't think too much, I'm off to work."

Gao Yong watched Zuo Dayou leave, lowered his eyes, and muttered in his heart: Why did you test Master Zuo?Isn't Master Zuo not loyal enough?
It's just that these words are not something he can ask at the moment, so despite his curiosity, he still decides to keep his mouth shut and not to ask more questions.

"Miss Zuo, is she up yet?"

Zhu Cihong suddenly asked: "I see she drank a lot of wine yesterday, you can ask someone to make some hangover soup according to the palace's prescription."

"Master..."

Gao Yong reminded in a low voice, "Although Miss Zuo is a military commander, she is also a daughter's family..."

Zhu Cihong was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "I was being abrupt."

Gao Yong hurriedly knelt down, "It's the servant who is talking too much."

"It's not your fault."

Zhu Cihong spoke softly, but Gao Yong heard an indescribable terror, "I forgot the teachings of the sages, I forgot the great defense of men and women."

As he spoke, he smiled softly, "It's interesting to say, I have never seen such a woman in my life. After getting along for a long time, I often forget that she is my daughter's family. Companion, tell me, this Is it just a confidante?"
