Chapter 141: Growing Wings
Immediately afterwards, Hu Hua returned to business.
In the past six months, Huating Liu's business progress is very fast, Liu Zhi increased the output of bamboo leaf green, Huating, Wu County, by the fist three wineries produced in Jiankang, and then unified distribution of the counties, and in the near Jiankang Prefecture and county to build a sales point, if the farther place, the whip is not reached, Liu Nong in Qiantang and Chu's distribution business reminded Liu Zhi, he and the past business to be very close to the middle and second family to reach cooperation, after the conditions are negotiated by them agent sales.
And this, Liu Zhi once sent a letter to ask Liu Nong, and Liu Nong only replied with one word: Yes.
Liu Zhi is indeed good at business, Liu Nong is just a casual reminder, he can draw inferences, but there are advantages and disadvantages, in the past, Liu Nong intended to control the production of bamboo leaves, so he could ensure that the wine side did not leak. With such a large expansion, the production of bamboo leaf green is not complicated and profound, but it is more pure than ordinary distilled spirits, and it will surely face challenges in a year or two.
However, what Liu Nong needs is these two years.
After Hu Hua finished the business affairs, Shahu said softly: "Xiao Langjun, it's time for us to build another village." ”
Built Besso? Liu Nong was stunned when he heard this, tilted his head to look at the broken lake, and Luo Huan and the others also looked at each other, as a member of the Huating Liu family, who didn't want the family to prosper day by day.
Broken Lake straightened his body, held his hand and said: "Xiao Langjun, the part of our village belongs to the shade household but does not go through farming, so the various branches are very large, although our Huating Liu family has a thousand tilts of fertile land, but eighty percent of it is tenant rental. As a result, the harvest has decreased a lot, and I am often afraid that it will be difficult to sustain it......" he said, pausing slightly, and glanced at Luo Huan.
"Hmm!!"
As soon as she glanced at it, Luo Huan immediately became nervous. He coughed heavily, pressed his waist knife and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Langjun, although the world is peaceful now, according to Luo Huan's opinion, the land of Jiangdong is really a secret gathering of Lei Yuan, and you must not ignore it." "I thought about it. Stiffened his neck and said, "Hmm...... The chief steward of the broken lake, let's discuss the construction of another village......"
"Yes!"
Gao Ran said: "Farmland and tribes are the lifeblood of the scholars, if there is no Wuqu guard, no matter how good the farmland is, I am afraid it will be stolen." That, that, the sage said: Open source and reduce expenditure is the way to prosperity and strength, Mo Ruo...... Let's let the tribe take care of the farming? ”
"Never!" Luo Huan and Laifu said in unison, and Luo Huan still wanted to say more. saw Xiao Langjun smiling at himself and shook his head, so he swallowed the words that came to his mouth again.
In Qiantang Wulinshui, Laifu led two white-robed sword formations, with three people against eighteen people, but all the enemies who committed the crime were killed in the wild. This is the proof of this. And the broken lake is meticulous and cautious, since she mentioned Jianbizhuang. It will definitely not be untargeted, Luo Huan and Gao Ran, the two brothers, are concerned about chaos, and the meaning of the broken lake is definitely not a cut of parts.
Sure enough, Broken Lake smiled slightly, and said in a soft voice: "What Leader Gao said is very true, opening up sources and reducing expenditure is the way to become rich and strong. Throttling, our Huating Liu family has always been thrifty, and open source, Brother Liu Zhi's business has been excellent this year, but the lake is broken. Flowers bloom more prescription for the United States, grain millet is indispensable, in order to check the accounts in recent years, farmland harvest is indeed decreasing year by year, so the broken lake feels that it should be built to make up for it. As he spoke, he was deeply blessed to Liu Nong, and said crisply: "Please Xiaolang Jun Sizhi." ”
Why do you need to think about it, this year, the number of white-robed people alone has more than doubled, and there is no farming work every day, and besides, there are still one hundred and twenty more horses, how can there be less food and clothing? If it weren't for Liu Zhi's business to open up the situation, I am afraid that it would have been impossible to make ends meet, but if it is to build a village, where will the money come from?
Liu Nong smiled: "Tell me, how to build it?" ”
"Yes, Xiao Langjun."
The surface of the broken lake did not change color, leaned over slightly, looked at everyone with flat eyes, and said in a crisp voice: "Jianzhuang is the best nearby, which can save a lot of money, but after the verification of Daddy, there is no good land to reclaim in the near future, so it is necessary to build another place......
The smell of mustard wafts and the crisp sound echoes through the spacious meeting room.
Liu Nong listened to all the suggestions of the broken lake, frowned, and smiled. The broken lake really lived up to his expectations and had already grown. However, the method she proposed made it difficult for Liu Nong to make a decision for a while. Money is a hard injury, no matter how good Liu Zhi is at collecting money, it is difficult to gather a Zhuangzi in just half a year. And what is the use of only Zhuangzi? Only when there is land can there be tenants to come and rent seeds. And the fields in the prosperous and wealthy places are very expensive, and a 300-hectare Zhuangzi in Wu County costs 20 million yuan, and this is still the family's eagerness to go to Jiankang, which is counted as a cheap sale.
Liu Nong groaned for a while, leaned less, and said with a smile: "I'll think about it again, but if you want to buy a village, let's put it in Wu County." At that moment, I asked if there was a charter for the training of the Luo Huan Ma Army.
Luo Huan laughed loudly: "Xiao Langjun, hearing is better than seeing, why don't you go to the seaside stable to have a look?" ”
"Very good!"
After everyone's deliberations were over, Liu Nong was in great interest, and led everyone to detour around the sheep intestine path behind the manor, passing through Jiangang, which was in this cold winter weather, and the garrison was also extremely strict, and the clusters of arrows were like cold stars.
After a jar of wine, I moved on.
The sound of the waves, the sound of the ear, gradually became violent from subtle.
After half a burnt incense effort, the fence of the past is gone, and there is a five-zhang high city wall in front of me, and there are white robes cracked in the cold wind on the wall.
"Bang ......"
The winch pulled the heavy city gate, and the eight white-robed men came out with their knives, wearing iron armor, and they were even more cold and killed by the cold sun.
The white robe closed his head and stood solemnly, and said in unison: "I've seen it, Xiao Langjun!" ”
Liu Nong frowned, turned sideways and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Luo Huan pressed the knife and smiled: "Xiao Langjun, why don't you watch it." ”
Liu Nong saw that Luo Huan was smiling quite strangely, and his heart was also a little strange, and he stepped forward to take a look, only to see that the armor on the white robe was indeed the steel plates accumulated in the craftsman's workshop, these steel plates were three minutes thick, three inches long, and half inches wide, and they were rectangular. And now, there are four more small holes on these nail pieces, and between the holes are tied with hemp rope soaked in fish oil, and they are strung together into a set of half-body armor.
Hu Hua stepped forward, picked up his eyes the size of a bean, and said proudly: "Xiao Langjun, this A is not A." This is a nail piece. ”
However, the armor piece that can be removed at any time must be his idea, Liu Nong asked, "How is the protection?" ”
"Huh!"
"Boom!"
As the words were about to settle, Luo Huan nodded towards a white robe, and the white robe pulled out his waist knife. slashed at the chest of the comrade on his side, and the huge force made the white robe take two steps back, and then the man stood still, patted the armor on his body, and said casually: "Xiao Langjun, it's okay." ”
"It's fine." Liu Nong was very satisfied with this string of armor, and said to Luo Huan in a deep voice: "In the future, don't try the knife with your comrades again." ”
"Yes, Xiao Langjun." Luo Huan was wearing the armor that he was holding in a white robe. Hearing this, he immediately pressed the knife and closed his head, shaking the nail leaves on his body.
Everyone walked through the neat barracks, and suddenly saw the snow waves rushing into the sky, the strands pounding the reefs, and the salty and wet sea breeze rushing in. What you see is very strange, the training school field is divided into two by a fence, and on one side is more than 200 white-robed people wielding long knives to practice the battle formation, you come and I fight and kill; And on the other side of the fence. I only heard bursts of shouting, but I didn't see half a figure.
Luo Huan smiled: "Xiao Langjun." That's where the horse army was trained. ”
Drill the horse army but don't see the horse? Liu Nong held back the surprise in his heart and walked quickly towards the fence.
Suddenly, a white-robed man appeared and shouted, "Stop!" ”
"This is Xiao Langjun!" Luo Huan shouted.
The white-robed man looked stunned, pressed the knife on his waist tightly, and argued with Liu Nong for a while. Only then did he frown and said, "It's really Xiao Langjun, I've seen Xiao Langjun." As he spoke, he turned to one side and let him go.
Liu Nong turned sideways and asked Luo Huan: "This is Zhang Ping's subordinates?" ”
Luo Huan said in a deep voice: "Yes, they are all fierce soldiers in a hundred battles. Xiao Langjun is not strange. The slaughter in the military camp should be the right law. ”
"Very good! Soldiers can't be played! ”
Liu Nong strode forward, and as soon as he entered it, he was shocked by what he saw, and Luo Huan was even more stunned, his mouth wide open, and the hand holding the knife was trembling slightly.
After a while, Broken Lake blinked his eyes and asked quietly, "This, is this practicing equestrianism?" ”
Hu Hua said: "Yes, yes, well, it seems to be ......"
They couldn't help but be surprised, but on the other side of the fence, in the huge school yard, more than 100 white-robed people were riding horses, wielding knives, pitching and stabbing, drinking and killing, but what they were riding was not a real horse, but a wooden horse made of five logs, one was driven horizontally as a horse's back, and four were divided into front and rear legs.
At the forefront of more than 100 people, Zhang Ping's majestic body weighed down the wooden horse under him and swayed, and he didn't realize it, and he was shouting loudly: stab, split, cut, roll. With his shout, a white robe slashed the wooden figures in front of and behind the wooden horse. And this is not surprising, on Zhang Ping's side, on a small wooden horse, there is a little girl who also holds a small blade and waves, and shouts in her mouth: "Wow, in, wow, in!" Charge ......"
Little Jing Jiao, Xiao Jing Jiao......
The people were dumbfounded, the corners of Liu Nong's mouth curled, and he finally couldn't hold back his laughter. At this time, Xiao Jingjiao pulled a knife flower on the small wooden horse, and with a "swish", he cut down a small wooden figure on the left, Gege laughed, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Liu Nong, his big black eyes blinked, as if he was admitting, and then poked his brother with the back of the knife: "Brother, someone is coming......"
"Jing Jiao, go into battle to fight, how can you be distracted!"
"Brother, it's really here......"
"Who's coming?"
"Like, it seems to be that little Lang-kun......"
"Oh...... Who is Xiao Langjun? Yes! ”
Zhang Ping came back to his senses on the wooden horse, turned his head and looked, who was it if it was not Liu Nong? At that moment, he waved his long knife to the sky and shouted: "At the end of the song, you will lead the army to operate, and you must not slack off." With that, he turned over and dismounted, picked up Xiao Jingjiao and lifted him up, and Xiao Jingjiao sat firmly on his shoulder.
As soon as he got off his horse, a white-robed man rushed to him, turned over his horse, and led the people to continue the exercise.
Zhang Ping carried Xiao Jingjiao, held a knife, and walked towards Liu Nong.
As we got closer, the blade was cold.
Rifle squinted and pressed it to his waist.
Liu Nong took a step forward, waved his hand without a trace, and made a secret system in the future.
"Boom!"
Five steps away, Zhang Ping put the knife back into the sheath, looked directly at Liu Nong, half a day, closed his eyes slightly, knelt on the ground with the knife, and said in a deep voice: "Qu Ping, I've seen Xiao Langjun." ”
"Qu Jingjiao, I've seen the beautiful Xiao Langjun......" Xiao Jingjiao jumped off her brother's shoulder, threw the small blade casually, wiped each other with her two little hands, and the back end was at the waist, her slender eyebrows were quiet, and her eyes didn't turn, like a dignified little girl.
"Don't be polite, please get up."
Liu Nong helped Zhang Ping up, smiled at Xiao Jing Wan'er, and said: "Don't talk about whether you are Zhang Ping or Qu Ping, since you brought everyone to vote for my Huating Liu family, you are my Liu family." As he spoke, he smiled and asked, "Why do you use Trojan horses to learn about it?" ”
"Haha......"
Luo Huan hugged his waist and laughed loudly: "Qu Ping, could it be that you know that you will be defeated by me, so you are going to make this move?" ”
In the past, Luo Huan and Qu Ping tried swords, guns and halberds, Qu Ping was slightly inferior to Luo Huan, but Qu Ping was not convinced, saying that if there was a horse, Luo Huan would definitely be able to cut Luo Huan under the horse. At this time, Li Xuan brought back one hundred and twenty horses, Qu Ping was overjoyed, and made a bet with Luo Huan to let Luo Huan return his old department, and he trained the old department, and when the two armies competed in the coming spring, Luo Huan would definitely be able to win the battle. Luo Huan seems to be rough and arrogant, but in fact he has a thousand troops in his chest, and he immediately studied his common sense of horse army drills, Qu Ping's answers are fluent, and there are many cavalry exercises that Luo Huan has never seen and heard of.
Therefore, Luo Huan thought about it again and again, and nodded in agreement. The songs in the middle of the village are all ordered by Luo Huan, and Liu Nong will not be dry.
Zhang Ping glanced at Luo Huan disdainfully, and said coldly: "If you don't accumulate horsepower in winter, how can you show your sharpness when you get spring and autumn?" ”
"Hey ......"
Luo Huan waved his hand nonchalantly and said with a smile: "With your method of training, even if you practice for ten years, you can't compete with my sword formation!" ”
Zhang Ping was furious in his heart, looked up at the sky, and ignored Luo Huan.
Xiao Jingjiao said seriously: "Leader Luo, the arrogant soldiers will be defeated......"
Luo Huan said: "If the army is strong, it can destroy the mountains and seas!" ”
"Definitely!"
"Jinghuan ......" Shahu couldn't help laughing coquettishly, holding Xiao Jingjiao's hand, so that she would no longer add fuel and firewood.
Liu Nong's heart is brisk and freehand, and he only knows the Ma Jun Drill Dictionary but does not know it, but he can see that Qu Ping is an expert, Qu is from Luoyang, and he is good at the Ma Army, who else can there be? It must be after Qu Yun, who once led 8,000 hussars to fight Liu Yao's 50,000 iron cavalry alone, and won the battle! He smiled and said: "The art of war is cloudy: if a soldier is like a water, he is good at changing like a twist, and now, it is too early to say that the victory or defeat needs to be known after the war." After thinking about it, he said: "Qu Ping, you have trained the horse army, and you will be the leader of the horse army in the future." ”
Qu Ping said in a deep voice: "Yes, Xiao Langjun." ”
Xiao Jingjiao blinked her eyes and thought, 'Huh...... This little Langjun is here to send something. Gege smiled: "Xiao Langjun, what about Jingjiao......"
Liu Nong was stunned for a moment, looked at the beautiful little girl, and said with a smile: "Hmm...... When you grow up, you can be the deputy leader! ”
"Yes, Xiao Langjun!" Xiao Jingjiao immediately broke free from the hand of the broken lake, picked up her small blade, and sheathed it back with a "click", and then pressed the knife and closed her head in a proper manner.
"Haha......"
"Poof!"
Everyone laughed, Liu Nong laughed loudly, the icy sea breeze poured into the corners of his robe, cracking, but his chest was agitated. (To be continued.) )
