Lu Yu asked: "Is General Shan still holding a military position?" "Although Shan Tianfang's previous military position was not high, it was a tolerance after all, and he could always get some salary for a year, and it should not be difficult to support a few people.

Shan Tian Fanggan laughed twice and said, "It's gone, but that Zhao Shoubei told me to be an errand in the town in the future." ”

"Be his subordinate?" Although Shan Tianfang was also a petty officer before, his rank would definitely not be lower than that of a small town guard.

"yes, I'll be his subordinate in the future, hehe."

Lu Yu knew in his heart that if he really became Zhao Shoubei's subordinate, Shan Tianfang would definitely not have a good time in his heart, but this was also something that could not be helped. So Lu Yu could only say: "Just do it, maybe when the town guard leaves, you will be the next one." ”

"Hey, hey, hey, thinking too much." Shan Tianfang shook his head and said, "I stayed in the town because of that Zhao Shoubei, who was willing to help take care of that group of children together." ”

Lu Yu was surprised when he heard this: "In this way, the new garrison is still a good official." ”

"It's not necessarily, anyway, it's new, I want to do something good and win people's hearts."

Lu Yu didn't have anything to say, so he was silent. He hoped that everything in this world would return to the way it was three years ago, but he didn't want Dunlin Town to really be a new townguard.

In Lu Yu's heart, the past year was the best.

The group of young men who came to Dunlin Town with Shan Tianfang a few months ago were almost gone, leaving behind two young men, one of whom was the impatient monkey, and the other with a nickname Ah Wen, as his name suggests, looked like Sven. These two people have no relatives in their hometowns, and they don't want to go back to the barracks to continue to serve as soldiers, so they stayed together, and now they have become anonymous servants under Zhao Garrison.

When seeing them off, Lu Yu also followed, and he prepared a lot of dry food for the group of young soldiers to take on the road to eat. What are the surnames of these young people, most of them are not clear to Lu Yu, but Lu Yu knows that they are all very good young people.

The new official took office three fires, and within a few days, Zhao Shoubei came down to Yangshan Village, followed by five people, two of whom were his subordinates, Shan Tianfang and Monkey Awen, walking at the rear.

Zhao Shoubei went to Fang Daping's house first, what he said to Fang Daping, Lu Yu didn't listen to it (he could hear it, if he wanted to), anyway, Fang Daping was still the village head.

After "visiting" several old people in Yangshan Village, Zhao Shoubei came to Lu Yu's house again.

When Lu Yu heard that Zhao Shoubei was coming, he waited at home, and even cleaned the house a little.

As soon as he entered the door, Zhao Shoubei said with a smile in an official tone: "This is Mr. Lu's mansion, where the master lives, it is elegant." ”

Lu Yu smiled and said, "Lord Zhao said that it was a joke, the old house has been around for decades. He wouldn't say anything like "Adults are coming, it's shining."

"As the saying goes, 'the mountain is not high, there are immortals, the water is not deep, and the dragon is bright', like Mr. Lu, a master with great ability, where he lives, is a famous mountain and river, and it is a treasure land for hidden dragons and tigers." Zhao Shoubei looked at Lu Yu's house again, and continued to smile: "As the new town guard of this town, it is a great honor to have a strange person like Mr. Lu in our town." ”

Lu Yu was a little uncomfortable with the praise, and he smiled stubbornly: "I'm not a strange person, just an ordinary person." At this time, Lu Yu remembered that Zhao Shoubei was still standing, and hurriedly moved chairs and asked them to sit down.

Zhao Shoubei sat down, but Shan Tianfang was still standing.

"Too modest, too modest." Zhao Shoubei said with a smile: "Although Zhao has not seen Mr. Lu before, he has heard all kinds of amazing deeds of Mr. Lu from other people's mouths, such as killing a tiger with empty hands and retreating from a dragon crocodile with a single knife, these are all earth-shattering achievements that ordinary people can't do." ”

Lu Yu smiled and thought, "You heard these things before you came, I don't believe it, I'm afraid it wasn't Shan Tianfang who told you." ”

"Mr. Lu doesn't believe what Zhao said?"

Lu Yu smiled: "I don't dare, it's just that I almost don't leave the house, and those little things I do, people outside won't know." ”

Zhao Shoubei laughed and said, "I said a person, Mr. Lu must know him, he was originally from Jinhua City." Mr. Lu's deeds are what this man told me. ”

Lu Yu couldn't guess who Zhao Shoubei was talking about, and asked, "I don't know who Lord Zhao is talking about?" ”

"Lin Siyao, Lin County Order."

"Lin Siyao? Lin County Order? Lu Yu was shocked, that night in Jinhua City, Lin Si, who Lu Yu killed, fled, but he didn't expect him to come back, and he turned into a county magistrate in Jinhua City, which is really unpredictable.

Zhao Shoubei nodded and said, "It's Lin Siyao, Lin County Order, Mr. Lu should know him." ”

"Yes." Lu Yu glanced up at Zhao Shoubei and thought, "This surnamed Zhao should be very familiar with Lin Siyao, then he must also know about the festival between me and Lin Siyao." "So Lu Yu is even more strange, since I know that Lin Siyan and I have an enmity, this surnamed Zhao still looks like nothing happened, and I don't know what he thinks? Or what to rely on? Or is there some attempt?

It seems that even if Zhao Shoubei is not Lu Yu's enemy, he will definitely not be his friend.

Zhao Shoubei smiled and said, "Lin County's order can be highly respected and appreciated by Mr. Lu. ”

Lu Yu smiled, and didn't bother to ask Lin Siyan what he said. Thinking about it again, Lin Si swaggered back to Jinhua City, not only because he is now the "Honor of the County Order" and does not need to be afraid of his little grass people, but he is afraid that he has other things to rely on.

Lu Yu doesn't care so much, Lin Siyan is his official and grows his own land, as long as he doesn't come to disturb him, everyone can be safe.

After a few more polite words with Lu Yu, Zhao Shoubei left with his subordinates, and from beginning to end, Lu Yu failed to say a word to Shan Tianfang.

After Zhao Shoubei left, Lu Yu suddenly understood: "This surnamed Zhao is afraid that he is demonstrating to himself today." ”

A few days later, Lu Yu was about to start harvesting the rice in Anding Valley, and before that, he needed to build a grain in the valley.

The valley should be strong and waterproof and moisture-proof, so it cannot be built with adobe bricks. Lu Yu couldn't get the green bricks and red bricks, so he could only use stones to build them.

Lu Yu drove the goats into Anding Valley early every morning, and he looked for stones in the mountains and forests near Anding Valley. The stone should not be too big or too small, and it should be as smooth as possible, so that the wall will be smoother and there will be fewer gaps.

The bottom of the valley can only be made of very flat stone slabs, and the stone slabs are not easy to get, so Lu Yu can only find a few large stones, and then use spells to make the stones into flat stone tablets.

There are many caves in Anding Valley, and Lu Yu paved the stone slabs in the cave with the highest terrain, put them together, and filled the gaps between the stone slabs with stone powder.

After the stone slab is paved, four stone walls should be built on the four sides of the stone slab, and the valley will be completed.

The stone wall is not simple, because it is not smooth enough, and it is unstable when stacked together. Lu Yu thought of a way, using rice soup and loess and mud, such mud is very sticky, and when it dries, it is firm and not afraid of blisters.

After drinking gruel for three days, Lu Yu built the valley. The wall needs iron plates and iron brushes to be used by these plasterers, but Lu Yu's family does not have them, so they use kitchen knives instead. It's a magic kitchen knife that can do anything.

The valley is not a square quadrilateral, mainly because the shape of the stone slabs laid on the ground is irregular. The walls were uneven, but they were sturdy, and the cracks in the stone were filled with cement.

This is a good barn, Lu Yu plans to take off the rice after it is harvested, and store it in this barn.

The day before the rice harvest, Lu Yu still went to Jinhua City and asked the Yan family to come over to help. In fact, Lu Yu can do these jobs alone, but he thinks that if he doesn't call the Yan family, they may feel that they are out of sight, not to mention that with one more person to help, the work in the field can be completed earlier.

Of course, the Yan family was willing to come to help Lu Yu, and the next morning, the six of them went directly from Jinhua City to Anding Valley, Lu Yu had already prepared the sickle, and he and Yan Jibai and Yan Xi'an went to the field to cut rice. The other three men couldn't help much now, so they used shovels to remove the newly grown weeds from the dirt field and prepare them for threshing in a few days. (There is a flat field in the valley, as mentioned above)

Because she has practiced for a long time, Yan Xi'an's current physique is far better than that of ordinary strong men, and Yan Jibai is even worse than her. Quick hands and not afraid of tiredness, in the morning, Yan Xi'an cut more than twice as much rice as Yan Jibai.

When it was almost noon, Lu Yu sent Mrs. Yan and Yan Jibai out of Anding Valley together, Mrs. Yan wanted to go back to cook, Yan Jibai was a little tired, Lu Yu said to ask him to go back to help cook.

I didn't eat lunch in the valley, because I didn't hurry, Lu Yu wanted everyone to rest for a while at noon, so he took Yan Xi'an and the others home.

As soon as he got home, Lu Yu told Yan Xi'an that in the pool in the backyard, young leaves had grown and the lotus was pointy.

"Really?" Yan Xi'an was surprised and delighted when he heard this, and hurriedly ran to the backyard to see.

Lan Shaofang didn't understand why she was so happy, and she followed, of course, Yan Xi would definitely follow Lan Shaofang.

The tips of the lotus leaves still haven't grown, but they are longer and thicker than the previous days, and there are more of them.

"It's really a lotus leaf, so small." Yan Xi'an asked Lu Yu again: "Uncle, did you plant this lotus leaf?" ”

"Yes, the lotus root seedlings I planted last spring didn't expect to grow this year."

"Hee-hee, that's good." Yan Xi'an turned to look at Lu Yu and said with a smile: "When the lotus blooms, uncle, you must take me over to see the lotus." ”

Yan Xiding said: "When you have a lotus pod, Brother Da Yu, you must take me over to eat the lotus pod." ”

Lu Yu laughed and said, "I will definitely pick you up, and when the time comes, let's watch the lotus flowers and eat the lotus flowers." ”

At this time, Lan Shaofang suddenly said: "Lotus leaf, is it a green umbrella?" ”
