Zhang Guotao said: "The food of the imperial court is for war." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info make military rations. In a few days, a new king will ascend the throne...... Is the people's heart at peace?! The autumn season of grain is also said to come down. ”

Liu Hai smiled: "Do you have a bottom in your heart?!" I'm afraid you don't know the bottom in your heart. Otherwise, they won't bring me food. ”

Zhang Guotao smiled bitterly: "I really don't have a bottom. My father-in-law said that after the year, the price of grain rose, and the imperial court had to release the hoarded grain to calm down, and at first it was afraid of accumulating a deficit, so it relied on selling, and as a result, how much was sold, how much others bought, and then had to give, and this charity, the grain depot was emptied several times, and the deficit is still there. The deficit was not filled last time, and it may be even more difficult to deal with this time?! ”

After Fengyue went home, he also joined their discussions, Liu Qi listened to their incisive opinions, his heart was filled with panic, his eyes didn't blink, he went out to sell cloth at night, came back and slept with Erniu and Yu Shanhan in the shop, just waiting for a palm to catch the light, he bit the cake to occupy a good position, and found the way by turning the book to make up for it. Almost all of the belongings in the house had been removed, except for a broken table. The floor was also not cleaned up, it was dirty. Yu Shanhan went to take a bath, and Erniu sat alone worriedly. He couldn't figure out why Liu Qi was still in the mood to read, so he asked Liu Qi a few words to see if he could distract Liu Qi, so he covered the book and said anxiously: "What should we do?!" ”

The insights of the adults are an inspiration to Liu Qi.

Liu Qi didn't have any premature conclusions about the butcher shop's business, but he had to examine his own winery, and finally lost the book, swallowed the cake, drank the tea bowl full of herbal tea, and said with a tight mouth: "The key is to eat." Wine is not brewed first. Food is expensive. Let's hunt first. ”

There is no food to eat, what about the meat?

Erniu is also worried.

Liu Qi felt that he would go hunting tomorrow, and by the way, he said to Erniu: "Take care of eating first." Tomorrow we go hunting. ”

He was so sleepy that he sat down and became drowsy, and as soon as he curled up, he fell asleep on the floor. Yu Shanhan came in, he was already asleep, and he couldn't wake up no matter how much Erniu shook him.

Before dawn the next day, he got up in a hurry with a sense of crisis, washed for a while, and was about to go to the thatched house, when he saw that Erniu had taken possession, so he had to rush home. Yang Xiaoling walked to the thatched house in her small clothes, saw that the door of the thatched house was not covered, and when she entered the inside, she saw that Liu Qi was squatting inside, startled, and covered her chest and was afraid: "Why don't you close the door of the thatched house?" She forgot to go out, and wondered: "Didn't you sleep in the shop?" ”

"yes, so I'm in a hurry!" Liu Qi blushed and asked her to go out, saying, "Brother Erniu occupies the pit over there." ”

Seeing that he was shy and timid, Erniu's daughter-in-law showed a blush and a smile on her fair face, and walked out and said, "There is no business now, why do you get up so early?" You're so good, so far, you can run back to the thatched house. ”

"I want to go hunting!" Liu Qi replied inside, "Do you want to go together?" ”

Erniu's daughter-in-law listened to Liu Qi asking her what she liked to eat through a dense fence, and was laughing coquettishly, and heard someone coming back, and took a closer look through the hazy light, it was a guest of Liu Qi's house.

Yu Shanhan is wearing a covered gown on his upper body today, embroidered with a mountain tooth and a bright moon, and he looks even taller and more majestic. In his waist is a slightly bent waist knife, with a one-foot-long red tassel hanging from the handle, and a new lake crepe pants with sandals under it.

The daughter-in-law of the second cow whispered by the fence and asked, "Little bird! What do your guests do? ”

"Him?" Liu Qi couldn't answer, but immediately remembered that the third uncle had been sending him to take care of himself, so he smiled and said, "Nanny!" ”

Erniu's daughter-in-law laughed, belittled Liu Qi a few times, and said, "I think it's a soldier!" ”

"Yes! Previously worked as an officer. Liu Qi gritted his teeth and replied vigorously.

Erniu's daughter-in-law saw that Liu Qijia also got up, Yu Shanhan stood respectfully at the door, curious, and asked in a low voice: "What about your father?" ”

Liu Qi was stunned when asked, he really didn't think about Abba's career, and thought: Let's say that Abba raises horses, he doesn't raise horses all day; said that he did business with the third uncle and the second uncle, and he didn't do business all day...... said that he led troops to fight, and he didn't specialize in fighting, and after thinking about it for a long time, he had to say: "He does everything, even fights!" ”

Erniu's daughter-in-law wanted to know if his father had ever led a soldier, but when she heard this, it was almost strange, and she immediately saw Liu Qi come out and said: "Erniu's brother's name is Da Shui, and he also served as a soldier, and when he came back to fight with someone, he killed someone by mistake and went to prison. ”

Liu Qi hadn't heard anyone talk about it, so he remembered that Erniu and Xiaojiao always hesitated when they fought, and said something strange. As she was talking, there was movement again, Yang Xiaoling ran to the side of the chaimen with her clothes on, her face changed, and a long moon official outside came, and a large number of fierce and vicious barbarians came, she was shocked, and immediately retracted, and wanted to tell Liu Hai's house, seeing Yu Shanhan guarding the door, she felt unfamiliar, and ran back to the toilet, and said to Liu Qi anxiously: "There are many people outside, all leading horses...... It doesn't look like a good person, is it looking for your Abba? Nothing will happen, right? She seemed to comfort herself: "It's going to be fine." As he spoke, he looked at the gate, but no one came in, but a man shouted outside, "Is there anyone?" May I ask if Liu Ling lives here, someone gave a word, and the minions came to see him. But the little officer who had brought them was very fierce, and rushed in, not wanting to shout a word, but was dragged by someone, so he whispered to the man at the door.

Yu Shanhan strode towards the gate and threw a sentence coldly: "Whoever asked you to come, you are not afraid of alarming the neighbors, wait." ”

Liu Qi hung up his ears, and comforted Yang Xiaoling and said, "Sister-in-law." People from my hometown came to see me, Abba. ”

Yang Xiaoling is a woman, so she hurriedly went back to the house, entered the house, and found that her mother-in-law also heard the movement, so she stopped her from going out, and said: "It's Uncle Liu's hometown who is here, come here to see him, they are all fat and strong, with fierce appearances, and different hair and clothes, so don't go to see them." ”

Her mother-in-law asked, "That's not right." When someone came to my hometown, I came in lively......" and then asked, "How many people came?" Is it better? Are all relatives coming? ”

Yang Xiaoling couldn't answer, and said according to her own understanding: "Their family must be a big family in their hometown." ”

As he was talking, he heard Yu Shanhan say in the courtyard, "Lord." The people who came with me knew you were staying here and came to see you. ”

Then the voice of bangs sounded: "What is there to see, let them all go back, go back and get some silver taels for them, and take them around to have a look." ”

After Liu Qi went to the toilet, people came out, he shouted and ran to the door, I don't know how to recruit those people, people were brought in by him, and many people cried in the yard: "Liu Ling." You left behind the boiling muddy river, the cattle and sheep in circles, and tens of thousands of people, and when you arrived in the Central Plains, you lived such a day, and the emperor of the Central Plains did not know anyone. Just go back with us. Huangdong can't be old without you. ”

Yang Xiaoling leaned on the window and saw that everyone was kneeling on the ground.

Bangs walked out, and they all crawled over to hug their legs. This scene completely filled her with a pair of beautiful eyes. When she heard her mother-in-law calling, she turned around and said, "All the big men begged him to go back." said that he was pregnant and did not meet, the emperor did not know, it was better to go home. ”

※※※

It was not until midnight that the house stopped.

Bangs have already moved up.

If the people in the hometown recognize the road clearly, and a horse team has come, they will make trouble like this, and the Erniu family will not say anything, and the neighbors will not be able to stand it.

Liu Qi was happy.

I've been here for so long, I've seen all the prosperity, and to be honest, I've begun to miss my hometown.

However, the ongoing business can't be abandoned halfway, and Erniu's family and a large group of people living outside the city still count on themselves.

When nomads don't have enough to eat, they have to hunt to make ends meet.

Liu Qi felt that if he wanted to survive until the price of food fell, he also had to rely on hunting.

So he put his heart on hunting, and after hunting for a few days, and when he had a slight harvest, he sent some home, some of which were given to Erniu, which were sold in the East Market, and some of which were eaten by the two families.

Erniu also sighed all day long, regretting that it was not the time to expand the business, and it was difficult to collect pigs at this time.

Liu Qi hunted, and naturally he had to send some to Abba.

The stable where the bangs are located is at the mouth of the palace leading to the north city, also known as the Junbei factory stable.

The fences there are all white stone and mahogany fences, with a corridor on the outside and a small paddock on the inside.

Liu Qi went once, took Yu Shanhan to rush, and it didn't take much trouble, and soon went to the corridor stable, and saw from a distance that there was a group of people picking horses, bangs and a few top cards constantly going back and forth in each slot, slowly sending all the needed.

They wanted to wait for the stable to finish before they came to the front, and when they saw a group of people intending to set off, they were about to pass by, when they saw a young man in his twenties, dressed in dark clothes, holding a horsewhip, standing in front of the horse he had picked and looking back, not knowing what to say.

Liu Hai hurriedly walked over, and the young man raised his hand to whip it.

The blood of the two of them poured onto their faces at once, Liu Qi kicked the horse stock violently, Yu Shanhan was an adult, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, panting and saying, "Liu Qi." You calm down. ”

Liu Qi kept exhaling and exhaling in the shaking, and finally held down the reins of the horse, and tears were about to flow down. He looked up again, and saw his respectable and lovely father bending down little by little, with a wide back, and his robe brushed on the ground, first with one hand, and then with the other, and with both hands on the ground, for people to step on and pedal, and quickly closed his eyes, and his nostrils were sore for a while.

He opened his eyes again, and those who had mounted the horse had already mounted them, and in the light of his own crystalline tears, he walked across the road, in groups in front and back, and could not help stiffening on the horse, looking motionless at the side.

He waited for the crunchy hooves to pass, looked for Yu Shanhan, and found that Yu Shanhan was also trying his best to restrain himself, rubbing his acid-filled nose, and walking towards his bangs.

Liu Hai also turned around, looked at them in a daze, and then said casually: "This is the prince, the prince wants the officials to lie down and make the upper horse stone." ”

He still couldn't hide a trace of uneasiness, and in order to please the two, he laughed before he made a sound, and asked, "Why are you here?!" ”

Liu Qi had a feeling that Abba didn't look like a ******, and his image was all broken, but he felt that Abba needed him more, so he didn't say anything, handed him the food, and said in a low voice.

※※※

In the 86-4th year of the Zhongzhou calendar, Emperor Jingkang collapsed, nicknamed Shengwenwu Zhaoxun, and the fifteen-year-old new monarch Qin Fen succeeded to the throne.

This year also quickly entered the autumn, Yu Shanhan left Changyue, and returned to his hometown with Liu Qibo's grandfather to worship his ancestors. Liu Hai bought a house, but because it was in disrepair, he asked them to live there to supervise the work, and waited for the mansion to be repaired and the family moved over.

As soon as autumn arrived, Liu Qi's second uncle Liu Yu also magically appeared.

As soon as Liu Yu came, he sent countless specialties, almost submerging Erniu's family. Liu Qi had no choice but to deal with it with Erniu on the stall.

He and Erniuhe's butcher's shop finally opened, and although the world was not good, they also relied on the livestock in Dongshi to make some profits.

However, Jingkang's business became more and more depressed, and business transactions were more often paid for by cloth, old gold and silver, and grain, and the brothers did not have much grain and cloth, so it was not cost-effective to collect them, and they could not move around the supply and demand of meat for the rich and some herdsmen, and there was still a long way to go.

If a person sees the future, he wants to take many paths.

If it really comes to that day, when you come and go with the manor, there will be hundreds of pigs and sheep as soon as you make a move, and they will always be kept in captivity temporarily, and Dong Yun'er's family can't afford it no matter how big it is.

Liu Qi wanted to occupy and expand the barren ridge he picked up, and when the business became bigger, let the livestock before slaughter have a temporary enclosure, and secondly, the displaced people who were collected would also have food, clothing, shelter and transportation.

The winery and the homeless people pulled his hind legs and didn't let go, eating was a problem, Liu Qi had to take them to make up for the lack of food by hunting and gathering, and he discussed with Erniu that he must repair that piece of land. Erniu couldn't say anything, he only knew that the shop didn't need a few people now, the new monarch was enthroned, the world was amnesty, and his brother Dashui also came out of prison, and it was a waste to keep Liu Qi, so let him do it according to his own ideas.

Liu Qi boasted that it was built in ten days, and he took his sister to live in the mountains, but because there were few people and few things, he came up in ten days, but he just made up the big temple that he had built before, and he didn't have anything to do, so he was ashamed to go back, and he heard others say that he wanted to farm the land, and he also got some grain for people to plant in the autumn.

He doesn't know how to farm, he has some confidence in building a house, and focuses his leisure time from hunting on repairing the house.

These days, bangs and flower frost are beyond the reach of whips.

After the flood returned, Erniu's house was tense.

The family also needs a house, and Liu Hai can't take care of the rotation every two days and six hours, and Hua Liushuang and Zhang Lancai also urged people to speed up the progress and repair the house as soon as possible and live in it.

Immediately afterwards, the new emperor issued an edict to seek talents and issued a "merit-seeking order", Zhang Guotao asked for a place for Liu Hai, and everyone always felt that things were rushed.

The day of the examination for the palace is coming, and the bangs are gone early in the morning.

Hua Liushuang and Zhang Lancai didn't go to the new house to supervise the work, they were all waiting until it was getting late, and the sky was shrouded.

Autumn is getting deeper, although there are few trees in the yard, there are many fallen leaves, and the wind blows at night, and it swims in a hurry.

Dry wood is burning in the cow dung stove in front of the row house, and Zhang Lan is picking the stewed chicken soup, and the wall is baked with a beautiful firelight, exuding a rich fragrance.

Now the price of Changyue is very expensive, and now Zhang Lancai has the right to eat the meat she bought, and Hua Liushuang doesn't let her come and go, she is much fatter than at home. The day before yesterday, Liu Yu sent two maids for her pregnancy, but Hua Liushuang did not let the two sixteen or seventeen maids take care of Zhang Lancai's life, but gave one of them to Da Shui and the other to Fengyue, and asked Liu Qi for a strong healthy woman.

The strong woman's surname is Wang, and she is good anywhere, but she talks a lot and doesn't talk much.

Hua Liushuang didn't worry about the bangs to try it, seeing that it was late, she only thought about how to congratulate.

She asked Wang to watch the fire, and asked the maid Le'er, who took care of Fengyue, to go to the street to buy some wine and things, and go to the well to fetch some water by herself. (To be continued.) )
