The rivers of this era are not only rich in water, but also lush in grass. There are many wild forests on both sides. The reeds ripple on the shore, and from time to time there are waterfowl flying. As far as the eye can see, you can see the curling smoke. On both sides of the riverbank, there are mostly barren beaches and wilderness, and there are few people.

Just as Liu Bei felt at the beginning, empty.

The boat traveled for several days, except for the ferry, wild market and boats, and some travelers could still be seen, and there was no half of a person along the way.

Why the Han people live by the road can be known from this river. It's so desolate. Wild beasts are infested in dense grass and forests, hurting people's lives. In addition, the big rivers flood from time to time, and the rivers are flooded, and the floods are frequent, so it is indeed not suitable to choose water to live.

The key is that there are fewer people.

Think of the population twenty times that of the present generation, and the real wilderness is in front of you.

It took one day less than when they came, and four days later, the merchant ships arrived at Lao Yadu. Bidding farewell to Geng Yong, Liu Bei returned to Lousang Village by boat.

As soon as I arrived at the door of my house, I heard the neighing of the horses.

Listen carefully, in addition to your own big yellow horse, there is really a horse.

When I pushed the door, I saw that it was the green horse!

In addition to his third uncle and a few craftsmen in the courtyard, there are also tricks!

"Lead!" Liu Bei's joy was all on his face.

"Liu Bei!" The half-grown young man who was pulling the reins of his horse threw the reins and strode forward.

"Hahaha......" the two of them laughed.

Liu Bei entered with the front foot, and the old patriarch entered with the back foot. As the Li Kui of Lousang Village, the origin of the green horse must be carefully checked. Don't make a mistake.

"Mother." Mother and grandson were smiling in front of the porch. Liu Bei hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. I left home, but I was fortunate to be accompanied by my grandson and protect my mother.

"It's hard work." Liu Xiaopang's safe return is the greatest joy of her mother.

The craftsman was called by the third uncle. The third uncle was called by his mother. The two horses were in the groove and fought with each other. My mother wanted to convert the backyard stable into a stable with two troughs. The two horses are fed separately.

There are many ancillary facilities in the Han period. Common ones are: toilets, wells, warehouses, stoves, cattle prisons, stables, sheep pens, pig pens, dog pens, duck pens, chicken pens, etc.

Toilets, wells, warehouses, and stoves are already available in the house.

If there are no cattle at home, there will naturally be no cattle prison. There are also no sheep, pigs, dog pens and duck pens. There was only that fighting in the.

The third uncle said, there are 100 acres of fertile land, how can there be no cattle?

yes.

The cattle prison is also to be built.

The front yard welcomes guests, and there are many inconveniences. The backyard is open and suitable for building a house.

You can put these things in the first place.

Closing the deal is the key.

Liu Bei paid a gold deposit first. The price of the green horse is twenty gold. Liu Bei still needs to pay another 19 gold.

Zhao Zhao said that this horse was given by a Hu businessman. The way is innocent, and there is circumstantial evidence. The old patriarch was a guarantor, the two signed and pledged, and the mother took the rest of the money to complete the transaction.

There is a long way to go, and there is no horse. And with a lot of money, it's too dangerous. Liu Bei hurriedly sent a letter to explain his feelings to Geng Yong. He also said that he was involved in the move, but he could have deep friendships. and asked Geng Yong to arrange for him to return to Anping with Cui's merchant ship, Yunyun.

One gold knows people's hearts.

The horse transaction made Liu Bei and Zhao trust each other even more.

Liu Bei threw gold and led the horse. It became a good story. Later, it was widely spread in the Northland.

Old Crow Crossing.

After reading Liu Bei's handwritten book word by word, Geng Yonghao sighed. The negative emotions of the past few days have been swept away. No regrets for yourself and friends.

"Liu Bei can know people, I might as well too!" Then he got up and ran towards the Cui family's fleet.

"Brother Cui—Brother Cui—"

Cui Jun, who was entering the last batch of cargo, raised his head when he heard the voice. Seeing Geng Yong only holding a robe, he strode over.

"Why are you so flustered?"

Geng Yong gasped and said, "It's for Liu Bei." ”

Listen to Geng Yong's purchase of Liu Bei's horse and talk about it carefully. Cui Jun paused slowly: "What a gold man knows people's hearts." Where is it now? ”

"At Liu Bei's house."

"Then I'll wait for him for a day." The fleet was stranded for only one person. Cui Jun also has the spirit of a chivalrous man!

"Thank you!" Geng Yong stretched to the ground.

Liu Bei's backyard.

The craftsmen are busy marking the enclosures.

The habits of the green horse will be carefully explained. According to the introduction, the sand is really fine at a glance. The balance of the horse is adjusted by the 'ear water'. He also said that from Anping to Zhuoxian, he ran all the way as usual. Liu Bei was convinced.

Besides, Liu Bei bought it as a stallion and paired it with the yellow horse. Usually it's just a commute.

The two are of the same age, and they asked Fang Zhi that Liu Bei, who was four years old, was four years old, and last year he worshipped Leyin in the same county as a teacher and learned literary characters. The art of horsemanship is a family tradition. Quite a bunch of nonsense.

Unlike Liu Bei, who practiced fencing, he practiced marksmanship.

Gongsun said to his mother that the two were like-minded and would be friends for a long time.

It is rare to be a sincere gentleman, which my mother is particularly pleased with.

The next day, a boat came to pick it up. Mother and Gongsun got up early in the morning and prepared dry food and honey syrup for the lead. He took it by thanks, said goodbye to Liu Bei, and returned by boat.

Sending away the lead, Liu Bei will go out for ten days and tell his mother and Gongsun about what he has seen and heard. He also presented the fruit box of Cui Shangshu's handwriting to his mother. Gongsun said that the difference between fruit fairy jelly and jelly is one word, but the value has doubled.

It is because there is a word 'immortal'.

Hemp mat as a specialty of Lousang Village. Jelly, Liu Bei doesn't plan to make it public.

There are still twenty more than 20 gold in the house.

It was more than enough to remodel the stables.

An ordinary house is no more than 10,000 yuan. Not to mention just a stable.

The new stable, Liu Bei is ready to build it into a 'dry bar' style.

The dry column is also known as the high column and the pavilion column. It is divided into two layers, and generally uses wood, bamboo, and stone as piles. The upper floors and walls are unobstructed, and the walls are also made of bricks, stones, mud, etc. The roof is a two-sided sloping roof covered with bark, thatch or terracotta. The upper floor is inhabited by people, and the lower floor is used for livestock or farm tools. This kind of building can prevent snakes, insects, floods, moisture, etc., and is mainly distributed in areas with humid climates.

Liu Bei built a high fence stable, not to prevent snakes and insects from moisture, but to stack forage on the lower floor.

The above-ground part was demolished, and the four-corner piles were built with bluestone on top of the original foundation. Thick wooden planks, stacked with Han bricks on all sides. The cover is the top of the slope on both sides, and the stable is divided into two parts, the front and rear are divided into two parts, the front is set up with a horizontal corridor, and the lattice railing is placed, and the door is opened in the middle, and two solid wooden mangers are arranged next to the door. After the stable, the stable, the stable bed, etc. are readily available, a stable and two slots, temporarily separating the two horses to prevent bites.

The lower floor also has four brick walls, with doors at the back of the sides. The inside is filled with hay, and a guillotine is placed in the middle for the grass.

After the autumn equinox, the tribesmen were busy sowing wheat.

Previously, the overturned truck was repaired to divert water, and a canal was built for irrigation. The dozens of acres of district fields opened up by Liu Bei's family happened to be sown together.

There are no maidservants or servants in the house. Although in this era, keeping domestic slaves is common. Liu Bei was still a little uncomfortable. Fortunately, there are many people of the same clan, and it is enough to hire them temporarily.

More than 100 acres of paddy fields, rice seedlings are growing gratifyingly. The rice flowers are fragrant and can be harvested in a few days.

The old patriarch went down to the field and saw it, saying that a hundred acres of rice are afraid that there are thousands of stones!

Can there be ten stones in one acre? The output is truly impressive. It is necessary to know that when planting wheat, only three stones are obtained for one acre of fertile land. Now the clear stream has a lot of water, dig a canal to divert water, and change the dry land in Lousang Village into paddy fields, and you will get a great harvest.

All of this will wait for Liu Bei's family to harvest, and it will not be too late.
