Deng Ai, who is not even twenty years old this year, is at that age when he is ignorant of women, but Deng Ai is from a hard background, and what he wants is to make a career in the future, so after following Lu Ren, he has always been very self-disciplined, and he has not had much contact with men and women. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info otherwise, with Deng Ai's current identity and status, coupled with the fact that there are more women and fewer men in Yizhou, it would be very easy for him to touch women.

But it is precisely because of this that when Deng Ai was suddenly restrained from behind by Shui Ling, he had a very strange and useful feeling in his heart, and he remembered for no reason that when he was in Yizhou, Mi Zhen and Zhen Mi often leaned against Lu Ren from behind, and said secretly in his heart: "This may be what the master often says, although it is painful, but it is also happy, right?" Well, it's very comfortable! ”

Khan! With a tattered master like Lu Ren, it is not uncommon for people to mislead people's children.

Fortunately, when the simple lifting frame transported the things in place, the initial panic in Shui Ling's heart gradually dissipated, and he naturally let go of Deng Ai, and Deng Ai led Shui Ling with a slightly red face and then inspected the village. When he walked in front of the small number of bamboo buildings and wooden houses that had been built in the cottage, Shui Ling's mouth could no longer be closed:

"Good, so beautiful, what a sturdy house! Our village is also dominated by bamboo buildings and wooden houses, but we can't build you so strong and beautiful! Brother Deng, can you ask your people to teach us how to build such a bamboo and wooden house? If only my people could live in a house like this! ”

Deng Ai said dumbly: "I can't take care of it myself, how can you manage it there!?" Your houses may look shabby, but if you can settle down, let's take a break! It's never too late to talk about it when you're free. ”

After thinking about how to use words, Deng Ai tactfully explained to Shui Ling, and Shui Ling was relieved. Deng Ai is right, the climate in the Nanban region is relatively hot, and the requirements for cold-resistant houses are not high, so it doesn't matter if you drag it out. At present, the first task of all manpower is to calculate and demarcate the grain fields that are sufficient for the people of both sides to eat. If you don't even have to eat, it's useless to do anything.

By the way, the craftsmanship of the Yizhou soldiers to build bamboo buildings and wooden houses is indeed very high. Because Yizhou has always been accepting displaced people, many times the engineering corps built serious brick and stone houses to house a large number of displaced people, and the construction speed was simply unable to keep up, so the construction of this kind of temporary bamboo and wooden houses was almost a compulsory course for Yizhou soldiers. Of course, it is impossible to build it delicately and elegantly, but the speed and sturdiness of the construction are not in question.

Just like now, in just one afternoon, more than a dozen bamboo houses have been built in Deng Ai's cottage that can be settled, and Deng Ai, as the main general, his bamboo building was naturally built in the first time.

Introducing Shui Ling into his bamboo building, Deng Ai explained some things to Shui Ling again. For example, although most of the land where the Meng people live is hilly, it is not as poor as the Meng people themselves say, mainly because the Meng people are too backward in their farming technology, which leads to very little annual grain and rice harvest.

Now Deng Ai is waiting for the follow-up craftsman group, and he has to do a few things after the craftsman group arrives.

The first is to introduce a terraced structure according to the characteristics of the surrounding area of the Menghu cottage, although it is mostly hilly, but the slope is not large, so as to maximize the use of land resources;

The second is to erect a new type of water wheel to bring water from the originally low places to the high places to facilitate the irrigation of the terraces. Deng Ai was also a little helpless here, because of the lack of manpower and the tight time, he could not build a small reservoir similar to Yizhou at a high place, so he had to pilot the method of using water trucks to guide water to high places in many places. In fact, until the Ming and Qing dynasties, irrigation tools such as dump bucket waterwheels and keel waterwheels in the Central Plains were still one of the most wanted things in agriculture in the southern minority areas;

The third is that not all of the reclaimed fields are planted with grain and rice, but some are planted with vegetables, fruit trees, or economic crops such as tea and ramie. Lu Ren had already explained to Deng Ai about this in advance, because in the early stage, in addition to solving the grain production of the Meng Shu clan itself, it was necessary to find a way to maintain the original commercial mutual market relationship between his clan and the address, and if necessary, he could also import some high-end goods in Lu Ren's territory to the Nanban region, such as ...... Tobacco.

Later, Lu Ren would still have to consider selling things like weapons and equipment to Meng Shu, which was thinking about the overall situation in the future. Let's put it this way, Lu Ren regards himself as the head office, and Meng Huo is ready to cultivate into its producer.

As soon as Deng Ai talked about these things that could be said to be his professional expertise, he naturally spoke like a river, and the more he talked, the more energetic he became. And what about the water spirit? This smart and studious Nanban girl is also very interested in listening. is not only interested in what Deng Ai said, but she also has a vague affection for Deng Ai. But in the hearts of girls, who can not have a dream of Prince Charming? And Deng Ai not only showed a brave and decisive before, but now he is so knowledgeable, ambitious, and idealistic, is it lethal to little girls...... It's better to hehe.

――――――――――――――――――――

It was already night, and the people who sent some daily necessities to Deng Ai and Deng Ai also returned to the village. In addition to Shui Ling will say some related things to Zhu Rong, there will naturally be other people who secretly talk to Zhu Rong about the small report between Shui Ling and Deng Ai. And Zhu Rong nodded with satisfaction after hearing that Shui Ling and Deng Ai got along quite well.

It's just that in this way, Meng Shu was a little unhappy. People say that the sister-in-law is half of the brother-in-law's ass, which is not unreasonable, Meng Shu likes his tender sister-in-law quite much. Now seeing Zhu Rong's actions, he said to Zhu Rong very dissatisfied: "Madam, do you want to ......?"

Zhu Rong glared at Meng Shu and nodded, "That's right!" I think this little brother Deng is very good, and Shui Ling is almost time to get married. ”

Meng Huo was a little anxious: "But, but...... Brother Deng, he is Han! ”

Zhu Rong said: "What happened to the Han people? In the past, it was true that we were at odds with the Han people, and the Han people said that we were barbarians, and we thought that the Han people were treacherous and insidious, but you have to admit that the Han people are indeed smarter than us, and their lives are much better than ours. For example, we went to Yizhou this time to see it, do you come to tell me what kind of life people lived, and then look back at what kind of life our village lived? ”

In a word, Meng Shu lost his temper at that time. What is the comparison between the cottage of the Menghu tribe and Yizhou? This Nima is almost not comparable at all, right?

Zhu Rong saw that Meng Huo was drooped by her, and knew that his words were a little heavier, so he sighed and said softly to Meng Shu: "Man, I also hated Han people before, but after I grew up this time, I understand that there are good people among Han people, like Lu Yizhou and Deng Xiaoge are very good!" And putting all that aside, don't you want our clan to become strong and no longer be bullied by the Abu clan? ”

Meng Shu suddenly raised his head and said, "Yes!" Of course I want to! ”

Zhu Rong said: "Then think about it, why can the Abu clan bully our tribe at will now?" Is it really just because their tribe is prosperous and powerful? It's not that simple! This Abu clan was not much different from our tribe in the early days, and later found the Yong clan as a backer, and slowly grew stronger with the support of the Yong clan. I've also heard people say that don't look at the Abu clan so arrogant in front of our tribes, but in front of the Yong clan, they are just some dogs who desperately wag their tails. ”

Meng Yu hesitated: "Madam, what do you mean?" ”

Zhu Rong said: "Abu's can use the Yong's family, why can't we go to someone who can help us?" In my opinion, Lu Yizhou can help us and let us gradually grow stronger. And Lu Yizhou is different from Yongshi, Lu Yizhou is thousands of miles away from us, and they are not interested in our land, they just want some of our specialties here, and the business has always been fair and reasonable, so we can rest assured that Lu Yizhou. But this is not the case with the Yong family, the Yong family has the intention of occupying our land, and the Yong family takes our things, which is no different from robbing us. Then tell me, should we ask someone like Lu Yizhou for help, or should we ask for help from a robber like Yong's? ”

Meng Shu was stunned for a while, and then nodded and said, "Of course, you should ask Lu Yizhou for help." ”

Zhu Rong said: "Now that Lu Yizhou has sent someone to teach us farming, of course we have to entertain people well." And Brother Deng is not only a good person, but also an apprentice of Lu Yizhou, if we can get close to Brother Deng and bring it with us, if something happens, are you afraid that Lu Yizhou will not help? I'm just that sentence anyway, what happened to the Han people? A good Han is worth marrying! ”

Meng Shu pursed his lips, and he had nothing to say.

Zhu Rong is still very clear about what kind of temper his husband is, and he didn't bother to count anything after seeing Meng Shu's current virtue, but his brows wrinkled: "But Little Brother Deng just got into trouble with Ah Bu just now, which should be a good thing for us, because of their trouble, Little Brother Deng is unlikely to change to help Ah Bu because of Ah Bu's power." It's just that he has few people now, and there aren't many people in our clan, so if the Abu clan comes to seek revenge and cause trouble, even if we add up, I'm afraid we won't be Abu's opponents......"

As soon as the words fell, Shui Ling held a large plate of instant noodles...... That's right, it's instant noodles. This thing is easy to cook, many times it is the marching rations of Yizhou soldiers when they are away, Shui Ling looked fresh when he came back from Deng Ai, Deng Ai sent some to Shui Ling, Shui Ling went to cook it as soon as he came back and brought it over to Meng Shu and his wife to taste, and when he walked to the door, he just heard Zhu Rong's last words.

Then Shui Ling put the tempting aroma of instant noodles on the table, turned his head and said to Zhu Rong: "Sister, it seems that you don't have to worry about this matter, when I went to Brother Deng just now, I also asked because I was worried, but Brother Deng said that he had a way to ......"
