Chapter 104: Wei Lu is afraid
"Oh—understood!" said Tenghu, "the prince's mansion is built by our shepherds. In this case, this year will be exempt from tribute tax for one year, and I will organize shepherds to build it in winter!"
This cunning fellow will not suffer at all! But he thought that if he could do what he said, that would be the only way! Then it would be much more convenient for him to bring people back in the future, and to eat and lodging.
When Teng Hu accompanied Wei Lu to visit the town, he had already arranged for his subordinate Lin Zan to accompany Li Ling and his party to inspect the grain fields planted by Ding Ling this year.
Li Ling dismounted to check the emergence of wheat seedlings, he saw that the wheat seedlings in a field were not neat, and they did not grow happily and asked: "What was planted in this wheat field last year?"
"Wheat. ”
"Why don't you cultivate such a vast land in rotation?" Li Lingji said, "by rotating farming, we can avoid the problem of poor emergence and growth of grain crops, and we can also prevent soil degradation." This field should be planted with beans or millet this year. ”
"Last year there was a bumper harvest of wheat, and the family started planting wheat a while ago, and the people we instructed came to stop it and told him this, but the family didn't listen. Lonely Lin Zan helplessly.
"This year's harvest must not be good!" said Han Yulin, "In the past two years, this has also been the case when inspecting some of the places below." When the harvest decreases, they know what to do. In fact, there are more lessons to be learned from facts than to preach!"
Lonely Lin Zan hurriedly agreed: "Yes, yes, that's right!"
Han Yulin's words invisibly pierced his heart, and Li Ling was deeply touched: "Alas! The lessons of facts are often very painful!"
"Let's go!" Han Yulin looked at the demeanor of his eldest brother, knew that he was wrong, pointed to the lake under the mountain in front of him, and happily, "Look at the big lake in front, let's go see if there are any fish?"
As soon as he heard about the fish, Lonely Lin Zan became excited: "This lake is called Ding Ling Lake. The name of our place is derived from the name of the lake. The fish in the lake are delicious! They are better than those in the Baikal Sea, with tender meat and fewer spines!"
"Do you eat it often?" asked Li Ling.
"The older generation is not allowed to eat, saying that this lake is the patron saint of our place, guarding our peace here. The fish in the lake are not allowed to be eaten by God's dolls, and they will be punished for eating them!"
Han Yulin smiled and asked, "Then how do you know that the fish in the lake are delicious?"
"In the first few years, life was difficult. Some of us dolls, we can't stand the hunger, so we secretly catch fish to eat!" he said with an embarrassed smile.
The sun is shining and the spring breeze is warm. Nearly ten miles away here, surrounded by low hills, and in the distance is the big snow-capped mountains. The surrounding mountains are rich in pasture and lush trees.
In the middle of the strip, rivers and lakes are intertwined, and the land along the rivers and lakes is fertile. It doesn't rain or snow all year round, the days are hot in summer, the nights are extremely cool, and there is no shortage of moisture. Cultivate land here to grow food, and you will definitely have a good harvest!
Li Ling looked at all this and thought, no wonder the people here call the lake the patron saint here, with water, this is a treasure land, and people can live here in peace.
They rode to the lake, where the water was deep and clear, with a little bit of ice waving. Fish more than a foot long with their tiny sons and daughters played unvigilantly on the shore of the lake.
Li Ling looked at these and said to the lonely Lin Zan: "You have a very good climate here, it's really a good place!"
"Yes, the elders say that there has never been a killing war here!" he said resentfully, "Since the Wei family came here, the shepherds have become their domestic slaves, and they have all lived a life of slavery, and the days have become more and more difficult, and several families have secretly escaped. ”
"We must protect our homeland well!" Li Ling said, "Let's go, let's go somewhere else."
Check it out!"
"Lord Wang, our chief manager said that I want to catch a few fish for you to eat!" said Lonely Lin Zan, reaching out to catch the fish.
Li Ling grabbed him and said, "Let's go! The patron saint of the shepherd, you can't eat it!"
Wei Lu and his entourage returned to their residence accompanied by Teng Hu, walked into the tent and did not see Li Ling, and asked Teng Hu, "Which prince is it?"
"Maybe it's convenient for him to go out. Tenghu roared and said, "Lord Wei, you rest for a while, and I'll go and have someone bring you milk tea!"
Wei Lu fell on the couch and said, "Hurry up, I'm already thirsty!"
Not long after Wei Lu drank milk tea, Li Ling walked into the tent and asked, "General Wei, you're back!"
"Why did you go, why didn't I come back and didn't see you?"
"You have someone to accompany you, I'm too lonely alone, go out and take a look. "Li Ling
Lying on the couch, he asked, "You prince, you see that you are not bad here, right?"
"What's good?
"Didn't you say that there was a lot of change here?
"So-what do you do here?"
Li Ling looked at the tent roof support and pretended not to hear.
"Hey, what am I talking to you?"
"Oh, what do you say?" he asked.
"I say, how about I ask you to take care of this place?"
"Not good! a gentleman doesn't take away the beauty of a man!" he still didn't move.
"I'm telling the truth. The fiefdoms of the two of us are neighbors, so you can help me take care of this place. ”
"Why?"
"I, I, I," he couldn't say. Since the Wei family burned down the prince's mansion that night and escaped from death, he always felt that everyone here was not friendly to him, the prince. I have a hunch that this is my grave......
This reminded him of the disappearance of the three of them, and the disappearance of his cousin, who was nine of them
Circle is missing together...... If it is said that the disappearance of my cousin is related to Wei Xu Mountain's snatching of the position of chief manager, then what about the three of them...... The more he thought about it, the more scared he became.
"If you have anything, just say it, let me hear it, and see if it's worth it!" Li Ling sat up and looked at him.
He also sat up and said, "I am in charge of the army, train soldiers, and I am not familiar with growing food. I'm not familiar with this place either!"
"That's it?" Li Ling said, "No one is born with a mother, so they will do this and that." That's not a reason!"
"If you don't accept it, I'll leave it to someone else to manage!"
"Isn't there a Tenghu roaring management here?"
"I always think he has other plans!"
"Then I, can you rest assured?"
"We've worked together for many years, and I still know you!"
"In that case, I won't shirk it!" Li Ling warned, "A gentleman's word is hard to chase! Don't regret it!"
"As long as you can pay me enough taxes every year!" he slyly said.
"Then I have to calculate according to the rules of the royal court, according to the annual harvest of the shepherds!"
"But you also have to guarantee my family's expenses!"
"As long as you're not insatiable!" Li Ling said, "We must discuss the rules and write the terms in front of the general manager here, and each of us will have a copy in his hand! Otherwise, I will not accept it!"
"Okay!" Wei Lu promised but thought in his heart, in the future, there will be a rule, and I will have a way to deal with you!
