"At this moment, there is no more beautiful woman in the world than you!" Zhao Junsheng muttered.

Hua Mulan, who has always been down-to-earth and generous, looked at Zhao Junsheng's expression, and listened to him say love words from the bottom of her heart, her face turned crimson for a while, and her face was full of shyness.

"What do you say, so many people, they don't dislike shame!"

Someone nearby heard it and immediately coaxed: "Oh, oh, oh······"

"Oh what, do your job!" Hua Mulan couldn't hold back her face, scolded her, and pulled Zhao Junsheng to walk in the direction where Huajiabao was.

After passing a flock of sheep, Zhao Junsheng saw that the flocks of sheep were covered with long wool, and each sheep was so hot that he couldn't stop wheezing, so he asked: "Why don't you shear the sheep, if you don't shear such a long wool, the sheep will be so hot that they can't stand it, and it's not strange to die of heat!" ”

"Sheep shearing?" Hua Mulan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly slapped her forehead and said in annoyance: "No wonder these sheep didn't have anything to do when they were bought, but in the past few days, more than a dozen have died for no reason, I thought it was an epidemic, and asked the burgers to separate the sick sheep from the normal sheep, but I didn't expect the weather to be too hot to die of heat!" It's just that the sheep we raise never shear sheep, and I have never heard of shearing sheep! ”

Only then did Zhao Junsheng know that in the early days of the Northern Wei Dynasty, whether it was in the south or the north, they did not shear sheep, and collected wool directly after slaughtering sheep and collecting them from sheepskins.

He said: "We raise goats here, the wool is not thick, not long and dense, so the goats are fine, and most of the sheep in the north are sheep, and the temperature is slightly lower, do not shear the sheep, the sheep generally do not get sick from the heat, but the temperature here is obviously higher than in the north, so the sheep can't stand it here, so the wool must be sheared!" Shearing the wool not only collects the wool for sale, but also keeps the sheep cool! ”

Although Mulan is very experienced in animal husbandry, she really doesn't know about this, so she hurriedly asked, "Then how to cut it?" What season are they cut? ”

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "Actually, it's very simple, just use scissors to cut closely, the shorter the cut, the better, not only to get more wool, but also to make the sheep easier and cooler." Like ours, the weather is hot early, and it can be cut in March and April every year, and it will be cut again before the Mid-Autumn Festival; In the north, it can only be sheared once a year, the weather is hot late, and it starts to be sheared in June and July, and when the wool grows, the weather becomes cold again, just enough to survive the winter! ”

Hua Mulan hurriedly said: "Today, we can harvest the sorghum in the field and the reeds by the river, and when we are free tomorrow, we will let the burgers and the women in the castle shear the sheep, but we need to make some sharp scissors!" No, I have to immediately send someone to the county town to find a blacksmith shop to make scissors, there is only one blacksmith in the fort, it's too late! ”

After Hua Mulan finished speaking, she turned around and ran back, Zhao Junsheng looked at her in a hurry, and could only smile bitterly for a while.

When Mulan ran back, Zhao Junsheng couldn't help but say, "Girl, isn't it good for you to leave your sweetheart here alone without saying hello?" ”

Hua Mulan reacted at this time, quite embarrassed, realizing that she didn't care too much about Zhao Junsheng's feelings, but she also heard the ridiculous tone in Zhao Junsheng's words, and said coquettishly: "What sweetheart?" You're not! Hum! ”

Zhao Junsheng smiled, took her hand and said, "Get on the horse, go back to the castle, I'll go see my uncle and aunt, and I have two important things to tell you!" ”

"Oh!" Mulan agreed, but found that there was only one horse, "There is only one horse, you wait a minute, I'll ride a horse over!" ”

"Forget it, it's too troublesome, let's take a ride together and get on the horse!" After Zhao Junsheng finished speaking, he pushed Mulan's back.

Hua Mulan remembered that she and Zhao Junsheng actually shared a horse, she was a little shy, looked left and right, and didn't see anyone else nearby, so she endured shyness and turned over on the horse, Zhao Junsheng also turned over and sat behind her after she got on the horse.

"Drive-" shouted, and the horse sa leg under his crotch and galloped towards the direction of Huajiabao.

Zhao Junsheng sat on the back of the horse and hugged Mulan's waist, fell down with the horse's run, put his chin on her fragrant shoulder, sniffed her body fragrance, and was so intoxicated for a while that he hoped that time would stay at this moment forever.

Hua Mulan was so nervous, she grew so big, except for being in Grandpa's arms a few hours later, she had never snuggled in a man's arms like now, her body was very stiff, and she had goosebumps all over her body.

"If only time could stand still in this moment forever!" Zhao Junsheng closed his eyes and said what was in his heart.

When Mulan heard this, her body relaxed, and she felt the masculine aura on Zhao Junsheng's body, and she couldn't help but turn her head for a while, and the two of them grinded their ears and temples, immersed in the world of the two.

When I arrived at Huajiabao, there were very few people in the fort, most of them were children, and the adults went out to work and graze, Zhao Junsheng followed Hua Mulan to see the old father-in-law Hua Mulan and the mother-in-law Hua Yuan.

"My nephew has seen Uncle Hua and Aunt!"

Hua Arc smiled and raised his hand and said, "Okay, good!" Come, sit down, let's talk! ”

"Good!"

Hua Arc's spirit is not bad, but his body looks much worse than before, Zhao Junsheng asked, "Uncle, are you feeling better these days?" I see how you've lost a lot of weight! ”

Hua Arc sighed: "Hey, this disease of people, miscellaneous diseases are coming!" This stroke is just better, and I can walk slowly on my own, but some of the war wounds left from the war in the past have taken the opportunity to attack, and the pain is terrible! ”

Zhao Junsheng knew very well that there were very few military doctors in the army in those years, and their level was very limited, and if the soldiers were injured in battle, most of them could only bandage themselves, and if they could survive, they could only wait for death, and some troops would execute all the seriously injured soldiers to avoid being punished.

Zhao Junsheng didn't have much to do about it, so he could only try to comfort him and talk to Hua Arc and his wife for a long time.

When Hua Yuan heard that Zhao Junsheng was leaving in the afternoon, he immediately went to prepare food, wine and food, and wanted to leave him here for a meal.

Zhao Junsheng pulled Mulan to the yard and said business, "I came to tell you two serious things this time: the first is that the post station is going to start sending letters to the people and transporting goods, and it is almost ready, last time you said that there are still hundreds of bantam horses in our ranch that can be sold to the Facao Administration, I will first say okay, the Facao Agency does not have so much money for the time being, so I can only owe it first, and pay it off within three to four months!" ”

Hua Mulan smiled: "With you joining the army in the Facao Department, I'm still worried that you will pay off your debts?" That's fine, but how much does it cost? ”

"I'm going to make you lose money? On the basis of today's market price, it will be raised by 20%! Zhao Junsheng said.

Mulan hesitated a little and asked, "Isn't this okay?" Although with our relationship, you shouldn't let us suffer, but you can't make it so obvious, if you let other officials of the yamen gossip, you can't explain it up and down! ”

Zhao Junsheng smiled: "Don't worry, this involves the second thing I want to tell you." Nowadays, more than ninety percent of the livestock in Liang County are here, and most of the cattle and sheep sold in the market come from our pasture, right? ”

Mulan nodded and said, "Well, that's it!" At present, the selling price is 20% higher than the purchase price! ”

"Well, from tomorrow, the price of cattle and sheep sold to the butchers in our fort will be increased by 50% at one time, and by 10% every day in the future!"

Mulan was very smart, she immediately realized something, and asked, "Khan is coming?" ”

Zhao Junsheng nodded: "Yes!" I received the news that the royal car will enter Liang County in about ten days, and the specific day is not clear, no matter which day it is, it will continue to increase the price every day after more than ten days! Remember, be sure to shear the wool before selling! ”

Hua Mulan was a little worried, after all, this is to make the emperor's money, the emperor is not a fool, and the ministers accompanying him are not fools, they won't be able to see it?

"It's not good if the price increase is too obvious, and if the khan and his ministers see that the price of this animal was raised when they arrived, wouldn't it be clear that they were wronged? If the Khan is angry, not only will we not be able to make money, but the entire Huajiabao and you will not be able to withstand the Khan's wrath! ”
