Chapter 22 Group Formation (4)
I took Nobita by the hand and walked all the way to the mountains to the northeast. At this time, the wheat on both sides of the road was about to ripen, and it would be harvested in a few days, but the wheat did not look very good, so I spread out an ear of wheat and looked at it, and found that the grain of the ear was not very full. I can't help but sigh slightly, looking at this growth, eighty percent of this season will not be able to harvest much grain, I hope the government can collect less this time, otherwise the villagers will be hungry and full.
Depending on the climate, water and soil, the harvest may be better if you grow drought-tolerant crops such as maize or sorghum. However, it seems that corn has not yet been introduced in this era, but sorghum must still be available.
In other words, governing a country is often not as easy as people think, especially when encountering natural and man-made disasters. The foundation of national stability is the food, clothing, shelter and transportation of the people. The first thing that needs to be solved is a problem of food and clothing, followed by the problem of housing and transportation, as well as various needs in daily life, and the troublesome things are a bunch of things.
It's no wonder that the emperor will become the most tiring profession in the world, not to mention that he must do his work seriously every day, and he can't be lazy and have fun, and there are no days off throughout the year, oh no, you can take a day off on your birthday. However, it is said that some emperors in later generations always like to pay private interviews, and if it sounds good, it is called observing the people's feelings, but in fact, it is just an excuse to be busy.
I took Nobita for a while, and then I came to a green meadow, where the grass was not very grown, but it was still lush, and it was more suitable for grazing cattle and horses. At this moment, Nobita suddenly stopped, and I couldn't help but look at it in confusion, only to see that its eyes were wide open, its pupils were dilated, its ears were facing forward, and its body was slightly lowered. When I saw him like this, I knew that he must have found prey, so I untied the rope, patted him, and said, "Go." ”
It wagged its tail and ducked in the direction it had been staring at. In order not to scare away the prey, I also crouched down and followed Nobita, and extended my magnetic field forward with Nobita's steps. After a while, when I was still about twenty meters away from the prey, I suddenly realized that it was a hare. I couldn't help but smile, thinking that there would be game to eat again, and I would have brought out the bow and arrow with me, and I could catch some game when I was hungry.
Later, Nobita continued to lurk at a distance of only more than ten meters from the hare, but suddenly launched an attack and ran towards the prey like an arrow. Tsk, I have to say, this guy is really a good hunter, and this speed is almost as fast as a cheetah. Could it be that the tigers of this era are so strong, and they can combine strength, offense, and speed? Well, I guess this is an isolated phenomenon.
At the same time as Nobita launched the attack, I also ran along, and I planned to make a detour to attack Nobita on both sides. In other words, I am also a strong runner, and my level is very stable, and the speed of the 100-meter sprint is almost every time is 5.55 seconds, which makes me feel a little evil. However, just as I was running, seeing that the plan was about to succeed, I suddenly heard a hissing not far away. I immediately turned my head to look at it, but I was suddenly surprised to see a fiery red figure suddenly rise from the edge of the pool, and then rush towards the forest in the distance, as if I had been extremely frightened.
I involuntarily stopped, trying to get a closer look at what kind of beast it was, but in a few breaths, the fiery red figure ran into the forest. I immediately felt strange, it looked like a wild horse, but it was running too fast to see the details. At this moment, I suddenly had a flash of inspiration, I'll go, this shouldn't be the legendary Red Rabbit Horse, right? There is such a thing as daring to love, but it is really a god!
At this time, Nobita not far away suddenly roared, and I immediately followed the sound to look over, only to find that he was pressing down his prey at this time. I couldn't help grinning, I felt that the luck of the recent period was quite good, first I subdued Nobita, a super tiger, and then I dug up an unusually rich amount of gold, and now I saw the legendary Red Rabbit Dragon Pony with my own eyes, if this person's luck is good, I really can't stop the wall, I don't know what kind of good things will happen in the future.
Nobita came to me with his prey in his mouth, and I stroked his head and said, "I'm in a good mood today, and I'll eat the whole one for you." When he heard me say this, he gladly took his prey aside and ate it.
I couldn't help but turn around and look at the pool not far away, and then walked over, and when I got to it, I found that there was not much water in the pool, and there were no living creatures in it, but the water was still very clear.
At this time, I couldn't help but secretly ponder, and decided to tame this dragon horse, if I can get such a good horse as a ride, then I will definitely be invincible in the future. I don't know how to tame a wild horse, so maybe I can go back and ask Feng Xian, he should know. By the way, I almost forgot, in history, Fengxian's mount seems to be a red rabbit horse, and I don't know if it's this one, if it is, then just give it to him, as the leader, he always has a decent car.
After that, I took Nobita around for a while, caught some game, and then returned to Huo Village. After that, I told Feng Xian about meeting the Red Rabbit Horse, but I saw that he was moved, and said: "Brother Xian is really lucky, I can meet the legendary god horse, I have lived here for many years, and I have never bumped into it, it seems that this is the will of God." ”
I wondered, "What does this have to do with providence?" ”
Feng Xian smiled and said: "Brother Xian doesn't know, all treasures and beasts are born, they are all born for the omen they deserve; Let's say that that day my brother was hunting in the field, and suddenly he ran into a black hole in nature, and was surprised to see a thing descend from the hole, and then the hole disappeared with a sigh; Then I hurriedly walked to the front, but unexpectedly saw that the virtuous brother was unconscious, now it seems that the virtuous brother is fierce, both with the power of the tiger, and with the talent of the world, now I think about it, the virtuous brother must be a god sent down from the sky. ”
I'll it! That's a coincidence, isn't it?
I couldn't help but smile and said: "Brother is serious, this matter is actually not as amazing as you think, let me tell you this, I am not a god, I am also a flesh-and-blood person like you, but the place where I came from is not in the times, so please ask my brother to keep this matter secret for me?" ”
He couldn't help but feel a little puzzled, but he still nodded and said, "Although I don't know what Brother Xian is talking about, I also ask Brother Xian to rest assured that Brother Wei will never confide in others about this matter." ”
I couldn't help but laugh and said, "That's good, by the way, brother, you grew up on the grassland since you were a child, you should know a lot about horses, right?" ”
He said, "Yes, Brother Xian, but I want to know how to tame that dragon foal." ”
I nodded, "yes, yes." ”
He said: "This matter is simple, prepare a three-zhang long lasso, and before approaching, do not startle it, otherwise it will be difficult, as long as you can put the rope around its neck, and the rest will be easy; Don't worry about it, in a few days, when the dragon horse returns, you can go and surrender it for your brother. ”
I couldn't help but say, "Where, I mean I want you to tame that horse and use it as your own mount." ”
When he heard me say this, he looked a little surprised, but said, "Such a dragon horse is a gift from heaven, but why should the virtuous brother give it away?" ”
I immediately waved my hand and said, "What does heaven not go to heaven, what does this matter have to do with heaven, speaking of which, brother, you are also our leader, you must have a horse that pulls the wind, otherwise you will lose your momentum?" ”
But he said: "This matter is unavoidable, there are too many gifts for the brother to get the virtuous brother, how can you have any more luxury?" What's more, the dragon horse was born at the omen of the arrival of the virtuous brother, so it should belong to the virtuous brother, this is the will of God, and a certain family cannot be violated no matter what. ”
What's a mess, this matter has something to do with God. The ancients were too superstitious, and any phenomena that could not be explained would be pulled together with the heavens. Of course, from the perspective of the development of things, this is indeed directly related to God, but this is just a natural law, how can they think of it as mythical.
I saw that his expression was quite stubborn, so I didn't plan to say any more, lest he still say "this is God's will" after pestering him for a long time, then I could directly hit the wall. Immediately, I changed the subject and asked, "How is it, is the refining going smoothly today?" ”
Feng Xian nodded and said, "Well, it's not bad, and after refining two or three points, I think it will be completed in less than five days." ”
I couldn't help but say, "That's fine, but be safe." ”
He smiled and said, "Brother Xian, you are too worried. ”
I said, "It's better to be cautious about dangerous things, by the way, today I took a special look at the wheat in the field, the growth does not look very good, it seems that it should be related to the climate and water and soil here, the climate in this place is so dry, and it is always fickle, why not plant sorghum instead?" ”
When he heard this, he couldn't help but be a little puzzled, so he asked, "What is sorghum?" ”
I explained, "Oh, sorghum is millet and millet. ”
He said with relief: "Oh, it turned out to be Shu millet, although the surrounding land can be planted with Shu millet, but the villagers do not have extra money to buy grain, and the government does not care about this matter, so the villagers can only rely on the wheat harvested in the previous season as grain, although the grain harvested each season is not much, taking into account the hunting income, it is enough for each family's daily consumption." ”
I couldn't help but say: "It's easy to buy corn seeds, anyway, now we have money, and after this season's wheat is harvested, we will send people to other places to buy more seeds, come back and distribute them to the villagers for planting, and when the harvest is time, each family only needs to hand over a part of the grain to us, which not only solves the problem of eating the villagers, but also solves our future military food needs." ”
Feng Xian couldn't help laughing and said: "Hehe, what the virtuous brother thinks, coincides with me, in addition to purchasing some grain, you can also buy some horses, cattle, sheep and pigs to come back to raise, within two or three years, not only can the villagers become rich, but we don't need to worry about preparing war horses in the future." ”
I couldn't help but smile and said, "Hehe, it seems that my brother has already made a plan in his heart." ”
In other words, if you want to make a career, you can't just have money, you have to know how to use money, otherwise there is basically no difference between having and not having it.
