Chapter 245: Wanyan is a big pigsty

"It stinks~" Yelusi covered his nose and whispered with disgust, Zhao Yan and Su Shi also frowned, because they didn't expect Wanyan to be so stinky, and everywhere they came into view were large and small pigsties, and there were large and small fat pigs in them, and the smell was emitted from these pigsties.

"Hehe, the king of the county, please see, here is the secret of the strength and prosperity of our Wanyan Department, don't look at the appearance of these fat pigs, but they are the main food of our Wanyan Department, after all, the food obtained by fishing and hunting is limited, especially in winter, there are fewer prey, many tribes are starving to death because they do not have enough food, but our Wanyan Department can rely on these fat pigs to ensure enough food." Impeachment Libo didn't care about the expressions of Zhao Yan and the others, but introduced proudly.

Zhao Yan had heard that the Jurchens were good at raising pigs in his previous life, but when he passed through several tribes on the periphery of Wanyan, he did not see those tribes raising pigs, and the description of the Jurchens in Liao has always said that they are savages who only know how to hunt, and they have never mentioned that they can raise pigs, which makes Zhao Yan think that the history of later generations is wrong, but now that he sees these pigsty in Wanyan, he finally believes that this matter should be true.

Although the impeachment bowl is the leader of the Wanyan Ministry, there are only three or four thousand people in the headquarters of the entire Wanyan Ministry, which is actually equivalent to the head of a village in later generations, and there are not so many false courtesies among the Jurchens, and there is no one to greet him when the impeachment bowl comes back, but when those Jurchens look at him, they also stop to greet him warmly, and their faces also show respect. It seems that the collar of impeachment is also very prestigious.

The impeachment bowl was very enthusiastic to take Zhao Yan and them to visit the Wanyan Department, but Zhao Yan and they only appeared at this time, the entire headquarters of the Wanyan Department is actually equivalent to a large pigsty, surrounded by pigsty made of stone and wood, large and small tents are also set up next to these pigsty, from time to time you will see some women and children throw the cut pigweed into the pigsty, compared to the outer tribes, the women and children of the Wanyan Department look much better, and the women are also wearing clothes made of pigskin.

It is precisely because there are so many pigstys that there is an unpleasant smell around the entire Wanyan department. Zhao Yan: They really couldn't stand it at first. However, after a few turns, the noses of the three of them were all smoked and numb, and they didn't feel particularly stinky, but Zhao Yan was worried about whether he would be able to distinguish the smell in the future?

"Leader Wanyan. Now that you know how to raise pigs. Why don't we see pigs in those tribes on the periphery. And looking at their yellow and thin faces, if you can raise pigs, wouldn't it also allow you to get more food for your face. So as to strengthen you? Zhao Yan suddenly opened his mouth at this time and asked about the impeachment bowl.

Hearing Zhao Yan's words, he said with a smile: "The king of the county doesn't know, there is a knack for raising pigs, the pigs raised by our Wanyan Department eat more and move less, so they grow fast and fat, which also provides us with enough food, many tribes in the past wanted to use force to snatch this kind of pig breeding secret in our hands, but unfortunately we were all wiped out, and it is precisely because of this that this kind of secret is only known to the people of our Wanyan headquarters, although the tribes outside also raise pigs, but they are all free-range, and they grow very slowly, Every winter something has to be paid to us in exchange for enough food. ”

When he said this, he also showed a look of pride on his face, although he knew that in Zhao Yan's eyes, the secret of pig raising in his own tribe was by no means worth mentioning, but for them, it was the basis for the tribe to survive, and he believed that this secret was only known to the people of their tribe, even on the side of the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhao Yan was originally a person who likes to eat pork, and he was also very curious when he heard this, so he ignored the dirtiness of the pigsty at the moment, and deliberately took a closer look at the pigs inside, but he quickly showed a knowing smile, looked back at the impeachment bowl and said: "I didn't expect that Wanyan is also full of talents, and he even knows how to castrate pigs." ”

When he heard Zhao Yan's words, he only felt a "boom~" in his head, and even almost wanted to draw a knife to kill the other party, but thinking of Da Song's possible support for his own tribe, this made him immediately sober up, and then asked in shock: "How can His Royal Highness the King of the County know the secret of our Wanyan Department?" This secret is known to no one other than the adult men of the tribe. ”

"Haha, this is nothing at all, although few people in our Great Song Dynasty castrate pigs and then raise them, but there are also people who have the benefits of castration, but this method is not widely spread, and it just so happens that this king knows some." Zhao Yan laughed and said, from later generations, he naturally knows the importance of castrating pigs, and it is said that this method seems to really come from ethnic minorities, and I don't know if it's true or not?

Where would he have thought that Zhao Yan was lying, and when he heard his words, he immediately believed it, and he also had a further understanding of the strength of the Great Song Dynasty, but the secret that he had already regarded as a treasure was not worth mentioning in the eyes of the Song people.

Thinking of the above, Impeachment Libo also looked forward to the assistance of the Great Song Dynasty, but he was a very rational person, and when he was not completely sure of Zhao Yan's identity, he would never discuss assistance with the other party lightly, after all, if this matter was known to the Liao State, it would also bring them a lot of trouble.

Next, the impeachment bowl took Zhao Yan and the three to the place where they lived temporarily, it is estimated that the impeachment of the bowl also saw that Zhao Yan was very uncomfortable with the smell of the tribe, coupled with Zhao Yan's expression just now, and the expectation of the aid of the Great Song Dynasty, so this time the impeachment of the bowl deliberately arranged Zhao Yan and them to the easternmost side of the tribe, there is no pigsty here, and the wind generally blows from the east, and the smell of the tribe cannot float here at all, and it is also worth mentioning that this is also the place where the brothers of the impeachment bowl live.

Wanyan was originally a group of poor ghosts, and they had to move around, so the place where they lived was not very good, all of them were dilapidated leather tents, even if it was impeachment of Libo, although Zhao Yan and they were VIPs of Wanyanbu, they could only live in tents when they came here.

"His Royal Highness the King of the County, these two tents are where the three of you live, I know that you Song people don't like others to disturb, so the two tents are separated by fences, and no one dares to approach and disturb the King of the County without my order!" Impeachment pointed to the two tents in front of him, and saw that the two tents were indeed separated by a fence, like two small courtyards, although they still looked very simple, but they were much better than the other tents.

It's just that when Zhao Yan saw these two tents, he looked at the three people on his side, especially Yelusi was still a woman, and he was also a little embarrassed at that time, and just wanted to ask Impeachment Libo to prepare one more tent, but he didn't expect Yelusi to suddenly pull his clothes behind his back at this time, which made Zhao Yan a little strange, so he had to say to Impeachment Libo: "Thank you for your trouble!" ”

"Hehe, the king of the county is polite, presumably the king of the county is also tired on this road, so please rest first, and I will set up a banquet with a few brothers in the evening to catch the wind for the king of the county!" Impeachment Li Bo didn't think much about it, and turned around and left after finishing speaking, although their Jurchens didn't have so many etiquette, but in order to show his respect for Zhao Yan, he specially asked people to prepare a reception banquet, and now it's past noon, he also wants to go to see how the dinner is prepared?

After seeing the impeachment of Li Bo leaving, Su Shi immediately yawned, and then waved his hand to Zhao Yan and Yelusi and said, "King Jun, you can sleep in the tent on the left, I'll sleep in the tent on the right, I've really tired me these days." ”

After Su Shi finished speaking, he went directly into the tent on the right, and after a while, there was a snoring sound inside, and only Zhao Yan was left outside looking at Yelusi with a wry smile, unable to understand what she meant by pulling her clothes just now.

"This ...... It's a bit complicated, so let's go into the tent and talk about it! Yelusi's face was also red at this time, she was not a casual woman, but she knew some customs about the Jurchens, so she stopped Zhao Yan just now.

Zhao Yan heard this and had no choice but to follow Yelusi into the tent, although this tent was a little shabby, but the ground was covered with fur, and there was a double bed in the innermost part of the tent, of course, it was a ground bunk, and I am afraid that the entire Wanyan Department would not be able to find a bed.

"What the hell is going on, why did you stop me from speaking just now, although I said before that you were abducted by me, but you don't have to sleep together now, can't the three of us just let them arrange another tent?" After Zhao Yan entered the tent, he immediately turned his head and asked Yelusi, when he was on the road before, because of the limited conditions, Yelusi had been sleeping next to him, but after all, there was a difference between men and women, and now it was a little too much to say that he would sleep together again when he arrived at Wanyan.

However, what Zhao Yan didn't expect was that as soon as his words fell, Yelusi suddenly became angry, glared at him and said, "Do you think that Princess Ben is willing to sleep in a tent with you?" ”

"Then why are you still stopping me?" Zhao Yan also saw that Yelusi seemed to have some hardships at this time, and asked very strangely at the moment, although Khitan women are not as conservative as Song women, they also attach more importance to chastity, and with this period of understanding, Yelusi does not seem to be a casual woman.

"Alas~, you Song people have never been in contact with the Jurchens, and naturally you don't know some of the customs and habits of the Jurchens, such as ......"

Before Yelusi's words were finished, Zhao Yan heard a sudden sound of footsteps from someone outside, and then seemed to have entered Su Shi's tent, and after a while, he heard a strange sound from Su Shi's tent. (To be continued!)
