The sound of horses' hooves was so loud that it crushed the early spring snow and made the turf muddy.

Liu Cai took the lead and entered the Niu Lu where Amin was, the Jurchens and Mengren in the Niu Lu saw it, they all smiled and nodded, this big shopkeeper was their savior, and the Han people were busy hiding aside, for fear of being punished for colliding with the nobles.

When they arrived at the gate of Amin's courtyard, Liu Cai and the rest of the people flew off their horses.

The courtyard door was wide open, and Liu Cai knocked on the door a few times to show respect.

"Oops, it turned out to be Shopkeeper Liu." Hearing this, Elli came out and saw Liu Cai, smiling, "Amma is not here, go out." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, it's the same when I see the little prince." Liu Cai said with a smile, in fact, someone paid attention to Amin's whereabouts and confirmed that he was not in the Niu Lu, so he came to the door, compared to Amin, an old fox, it was still a young Erli who was easier to deal with.

"It's okay left and right, go out and hunt some wild things, and send them to the prince and the little prince to try it." After Liu Cai finished speaking, Zhiwen took Li Dingguo and Bagen to unload a few hares, pheasants, and yellow sheep on horseback and sent them to Erli.

These harvests are naturally mainly due to the work of Bagen and Chaolu Chagan, Liu Cai has some skills, but his archery skills are only average, and Zhiwen and Li Dingguo have only begun to learn arrows.

"Shopkeeper Liu is polite, how embarrassed, these things should be sent to your company by us." Elli was a little ashamed, the Jurchens claimed to be peerless in cavalry and archery, but they let the caravan that was a guest from afar send prey.

"Little prince doesn't have to care, as soon as we come, most of you are not available, we have time to hunt, and it is the same." Liu Cai said, in fact, Zhuolu Trading Company is also very busy, and this trip is specially to make time.

"Then I'll... Accepted? Erli said that most of the people outside the Seychelles do not know how to be polite, and some people sincerely give gifts, and do not refuse, and they will return them in the future.

"Just accept it, don't think we're bad at archery." Liu Cai said with a smile.

"Shopkeeper Liu's words are a bit fake, you guards, I think the archery skills are very good." Alli looked at the three of Bagan, who were clearly Mongolian.

After the kind words were finished, Liu Cai took a deep breath, rubbed his hands, and said with some embarrassment, "This... Little prince, we just caused trouble, and we are here to ask for sin. ”

Woe, what woe? Hurt someone in a fight?

Elley looked Liu Cai and the others up and down, his breath was long, his clothes were intact and there were no wrinkles, and there were no blood stains or anything, he didn't look like it.

As soon as Liu Cai saw Erli's eyes, he knew that he was different, and quickly explained, "Don't get me wrong, little prince, it didn't hurt anyone, but... You have a field outside, right? ”

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"That's... We just besieged and killed a yellow sheep, but we didn't expect to be escaped by it, and after a pursuit, we found out afterwards that the horse stepped on your field, which is... That's a. Liu Cai said with a look of regret.

Elley looked at Liu Cai blankly, not understanding why he could be so distressed, until Liu Cai called him to come back to his senses, "Hey, isn't it just a few fields, just step on it, it's not a big deal." ”

The foreign tribes did not pay much attention to the farmland, and there was almost no output here, and it was not welcomed, and with the grain brought by Liucai, those fields were abandoned, and Elle did not feel sorry for it.

"Are you alright?" Liu Cai asked, "If this is in the Guannei, I will be scolded by three generations of my ancestors." ”

"It's fine." Elley comforted, "I won't tell you, Shopkeeper Liu, those fields don't grow much food at all, and I'm just about to talk to Amma, so I won't plant at all, just step on it." ”

"Can't grow food?" Liu Cai was startled and said, "How come? Could it be that the farmer is lazy? ”

In fact, the land in this area is fertile, as long as you use a little snack, it is not difficult to grow some food, but this is not the purpose of Zhiwen, Liu Cai naturally will not remind.

"Those Nikans..." just said a few words, thinking that Liu was a Han person, Elli changed his words again, "Those Han people..."

I don't seem to see them lazy, Elle said secretly, they have been driven to do this and that all day long, and there is almost no free time, if this is also lazy, it really can't be said.

"Forget it, shopkeeper Liu, it may be that we are not suitable for growing grain here, don't worry, it's okay, those fields will be scrapped, it's not a big deal." Alli didn't want to think about it, so he replied.

"That's a pity." Liu Cai sighed.

"It's a pity, Shopkeeper Liu, there are those good fields, all around Hetuara and Shengjing, we have never been able to grow grain here." Elle thought that Liu Cai was feeling sorry for these fields that were about to be abandoned.

"No, no, no, little prince, you misunderstood, it's not Tian that I'm sorry for, but people." Liu Cai explained.

"People?"

"Yes, man!" Liu Cai said, "Little prince, do you think, since this field is no longer planted, then these people who farm are useless?" ”

"No, it won't." "If we don't farm, we can let them do other things, and we won't let them be idle." ”

"Little prince, you farmers, not to mention that I know, are all Han people, what else will they do besides farming? Hunt? Catch fish? Or herding sheep and horses? They can't do any of this, right? Once the fields are deserted, they are all wasted people, so is it possible that you still have to support them? Liu Cai was tempting.

"That's just as well." Erli had to agree, except for farming, the captive Han people were really not good at other things, that is, cooking, because of different eating habits, the utensils were not at hand, and they were also careless, "Forget it, then let them go to farming." ”

"It's not a good deal." Liu Cai still shook his head on the side.

"What's not a good deal?" Allie asked curiously.

"That's the case, little prince, I am a businessman, in business, the emphasis is on paying for the return, loss-making business can not be done, you let the Han people continue to farm, they have a job to do, but in my eyes, it is still a loss-making business." Liu replied.

"Losing money? How so? Seeing Liu Cai smiling and silent, Aierli looked unfathomable, couldn't resist his curiosity, straightened his body, learned the etiquette of the Han people, and arched his hand, "I also hope that the shopkeeper Liu will solve his doubts." ”

Liu Cai tilted his head slightly, just in line with Zhiwen's gaze, they all smiled knowingly, wasted so many tongues, and went hunting before, and went to the field to run a few laps, and the fish was finally hooked.

"Little prince, I remember you just said that those fields can hardly grow grain, right?" Liu Cai asked.
