This harvester only existed for one day before Zhao Ta ordered to be dismantled again, the next day from the house selected a dozen people each took a part of the door out, Xiangyi near Gongzhou, Yingtianfu and other states and counties of several large blacksmith shops, carpenter shops have suddenly received a batch of urgent work, requiring that it must be completed within ten days, so the residents near them are unlucky, every day the sound of axes and chisels, the sound of hammers hitting iron chisels until late at night, noisy so that they all lose sleep.

At the same time, several major local handicraft guilds are also busy, they want to recruit more than 100 skilled and experienced blacksmiths and carpenters in a month, and it is not easy to find so many people at once, but the employers offer high intermediary fees, and they are also happy to be tired, riding horses every day, sitting in sedan chairs to dig around corners, and prying people.

Zhao's mansion is now also a chicken, flying and dogs, in order to repair the canal and build the embankment, some people have been withdrawn from the mansion, but now the prince seems to be unwilling to let go of the rest of the people, and there is a second mobilization, and those men who are over fourteen years old and less than fifty years old are all gathered, whether you used to be a janitor, or feed the horses and cook, all of them were sent to the workshop for assault training. Although people have a lot of complaints, but for the sake of double salary, everyone forgave the prince's 'nonsense'.

······

Time flies, soon entered May, the weather is also hot, the main canal has been dredged, several ponds have been dug, the roadbed along the canal has been leveled, just waiting for the summer harvest to be paved with stone slabs, the construction site has been paid today for a big holiday, and the strong men have gone back to prepare for the summer harvest and summer sowing.

In the back garden of Zhao's house, Zhao Ta sat under a big willow tree by the pond, short clothes and short shirts, two mustaches on his head, dressed coolly, holding a fishing rod in his hand and staring at the rippling fish drifting in the water, and there were two foot-long carp in the wooden barrel on the side that were fluttering inside, obviously his half-day trophies.

"Second master, drink sour plum soup and go to the summer!" Miki, who was standing behind him, handed over the glass of water and said.

"Okay, it tastes good, you can drink some too!" Zhao Ta took a sip and said with a smile.

"Yo, the second master is so idle!" At this time, there was a sudden sound like a crisp bell, but no matter how you heard it, there was a sour smell inside.

"Hehe, Sister Mei, didn't you see that I was fishing, why did you get the ducks here? Didn't I tell you to make them less active! Zhao Ta greeted with a smile.

"The ducks have to swim this way, what can I do, they can't understand what I say!" Xiao Mei turned out of the flowers and said angrily.

"Sister Mei, you are really getting younger and younger, you look like a big girl who is less than twenty!" Xiao Mei was wearing a pink narrow-sleeved light coat, two treasures at the placket seemed to be about to break out, and a green Luo skirt was wrapped around her waist, swaying from side to side with her hips, looking unique.

"The old lady was original... It's not that old! Xiao Mei almost missed the bottom in a hurry, and said curtly when she touched her easy-to-look face.

"Ha Luha, Sister Mei, if I were a little older, I would have to marry you into the door!" Zhao Ta laughed, but opened his mouth in surprise when he saw joy, as soon as the prince heard others mention his mother, he would immediately jump up like a cat with a tail, threatening to intimidate people to take money, why is there no movement today? Could it be that the prince is a sperm worm in the brain today, no, the prince is only eight years old, and it is not time to estrus yet!

"It may be that the prince thinks she is 'thin' and has no oil and water on her body." Seeing Xi can only come up with such a reason for the prince, but she doesn't know that every copper plate on her body has already been squeezed dry by the prince, and she has made a large stack of IOUs, so she will sign the deed of sale one day and become his person.

"Okay, the second master can afford me, then I'll be close to the master!" Xiao Mei was annoyed in her heart, but she walked over with a smile like a flower.

"Sister Mei, you better spare me, I can't stand the smell of duck feces all over your body!" Zhao Ta hurriedly waved his hand and said, "My heart is that I am young, let alone intimacy, even if your senior brother sees you talking to me like this, he has to slaughter me desperately, this man's vinegar is stronger than a woman's.

"Alas, that's not to blame the second master, if you accept me as a personal maid, I promise to make my body smell fragrant every day!" Xiao Mei pinched Zhao Ta's face, sat down next to him and said.

"Hehe, then I'm blessed, I have to sleep with my eyes open, and I have to put a knife under the pillow to prevent you from touching my bed in the middle of the night!" Zhao Ta handed her the sour plum soup he drank and said. ,

"Hmph, I'd better drink this bowl, lest you do it again!" Xiao Mei snatched the sour plum soup that Zhao Ta drank half of and gave him a white look and said, this kid said that he gave himself a 'Nine Turns Killing Pill', which made her timid for several days, and after calming down, she realized that what she ate was only a few expired fennel beans, but it was still a big mistake to be careful.

"Dog bites Lu Dongbin!" Zhao Ta drank the freshly poured and said, "Hey, did you kill all the ducks I let you raise, why are there only so many left?" Suddenly, he noticed that there were always a dozen or so ducks swimming around in the pond.

"Shit, it's all dead!" Xiao Mei glared at Zhao Ta and said.

"A hundred ducks have killed more than eighty, how did you feed them, it won't be stuffed!" The duck seedlings were bought by Jianxi according to Zhao Ta's instructions, but even if those ducks are stupid, they don't know how hungry they are, and most of them will not be stupid.

"Hmph, you really guessed it, the duck is still stuffed too much to die, but I fed it according to what your second master said!" Xiao Mei looked up and down and said.

"Oh, my mother, why did you die, these ducks will be of great use in the future..." Zhao Ta cried with a sad face, and his mouth was curled as if he was about to cry.

"Tsk, your duck isn't golden, is that so?" Xiao Mei looked at Zhao Ta's appearance and said funny.

"Although they are not gold, they are also silver, and when they grow up and are roasted in the future, they will have to be sold for hundreds of dollars!" Zhao Tan muttered.

"Okay, okay, can't I compensate you, I'll write you an IOU again!" Xiao Mei was amused by Zhao Ta, but she was afraid that he would make some more duck-and-egg and egg-and-duck things, so she might as well admit it first.

"Forget it, you can't pay off those debts, and then write a blank piece of paper, I'll buy another hundred ducks, and you can feed them again!" Zhao Ta waved his hand and said generously.

"You... If you mention ducks to me again, I'll throw you into the pond and raise you as ducks! Xiao Mei was a little annoyed, this little ghost let himself raise ducks, purely a whole person, when the ducks grew to more than a month, he didn't let the ducks eat by themselves, and let her feed the duck's stomach several times a day, but how do you know how much the road is stuffed, and the ducks are dying raw, isn't this playing with yourself.

"Okay, I'll stop talking!" Zhao Ta is really afraid that this Bai Wuchang, who doesn't know how to respect the old and love the young, will really throw himself into the water to cool down, he is also wondering if the ducks can be raised, is there a problem with the duck species, his previous life on the farm once raised ducks, for several large restaurants, he also specially followed the training a few times, visited the production method of roast duck, but now where to find purebred 'Beijing duck', it is estimated that they are still living in the wild land of Daliao, now they can only grope to come, anyway, there is no hurry!

"Where did you get my senior brother, why haven't you come back for more than ten days?" Xiao Mei asked.

"You owe too many debts, and you can't pay it back by planting flowers and raising ducks and monkeys, I sent him a job to earn a double salary, and he is estimated to be able to repay this month's interest after working for a while!" Zhao Ta touched his head and said.

"You're not going to let him go... He's not healed yet! Xiao Mei saw that she was standing on the side, and swallowed half of her words.

"Cut, I'm a good person, don't worry, I won't let him do bad things!" Zhao Ta said disdainfully.

"Second master, Steward Zheng is here!" A small yellow door guarding the second gate came over and muttered a few words in Jianxi's ear, and Jianxi hurriedly reported it.

"Well, I can't rest if I want to, let him come here." Zhao Ta said with a sigh.

"What can you do with a little brat, it seems that you are busier than the emperor!" Xiao Mei looked at Zhao Ta's appearance and said coldly.

Zhao Ta looked at Xiao Mei and lowered his head and sighed, but he rarely didn't reply, he couldn't say anything in his heart, the emperor was busy, but he was busy looking for women, looking for immortals, repairing gardens, and building Taoist temples, so he didn't have a fucking business, if he could do something serious, he still had to think about how to wipe his ass in the future.

"Second master, a hundred harvesters have been assembled, I tried it in the wheat field today, if you use horse-pulling, you can harvest ten acres of land in an hour, if you are proficient, I think it can be faster!" Zheng Lu, the acting chief steward, had already turned into a regular officer, and had just finished the work on the ground, and was immediately sent to the workshop.

"Well, you immediately pick some elf young people in each Zhuangzi, teach them how to use them first, and then send them down, whoever uses them will go to whom's land, and you can charge some fees appropriately, we can't take people and equipment, but we also have to pay for livestock!" Zhao Ta nodded and said. ,

"Yes, I think it's just 30 wen per acre of land, they hire a short-term worker, and a good hand will cut 3 acres of land a day, and they will get a salary of 100 wen!" Zheng Lu said carefully.

"Okay, you can do it, there is one more thing you have to pay attention to, after our land is harvested, you immediately arrange five machines to go north and five machines to go south, not to make any money, but to let others see the benefits of our harvesters, tell them where the machines are made!"

"Second master, what is this for?" Zheng Lu was puzzled, and he asked puzzled.

"Stupid, let's recruit so many craftsmen to keep them for fun, just let them make harvesters, but you always put it on your own kang, who knows that you have good things here, who do we sell them to, keep them for fun?" Zhao Ta reprimanded his head and face.

"Yes, yes, the little stupid, but some of the wheat in the north of the second master has not been confiscated, but the crops planted in the south have already been harvested, and it's useless for us to go, isn't it..."

"Alas, are you really stupid, or pretend to be here with me, the wheat is harvested, isn't there still early rice, our machine can't just harvest wheat, it can also harvest rice!" Zhao Ta said with a wry smile, this chief steward is not very good, he can't fully understand the intention of the leader, and he has to experience it well.

"This kid doesn't just seem to be smart, but he really has some skills, and he can train a steward to be obedient!" Xiao Mei, who was listening on the side, suddenly felt that Zhao Ta was not so annoying, and her eyes looked at him a little softer.

"The prince seems to be worried about his life, and nothing in the house can be separated from him now, if the prince really becomes the emperor one day, will he be busier?" Seeing that he liked to look at the prince, and then looked at the steward who bowed down and obeyed orders, he suddenly thought.
