Chapter 053: Liu Ming Returns
There are so many awards in the manor's lottery plate, and it costs as much as 5 points to draw once, which Liu An didn't expect.
Sure enough, it is the manor system, and the manor lottery plate is the most important thing.
He now only has 3 contribution points from recruiting 10 dead soldiers, and one draw is not enough.
After a quick glance, Liu An saw the dead card that he was thinking about, and his hanging heart finally let go.
Look at the thirteen incense, soap, and shampoo in the lottery plate...... As well as those tempting options in the back, Liu An swallowed his saliva uncontrollably.
These things can not only be sold for a lot of money, but also solve some problems in Liu An's current life.
Like soap, like shampoo......
And Liu An also found that the updated awards seem to be more cost-effective than before.
Like the Dead Cards, you need 3 contribution points to draw before, and you can draw 10 Dead Cards.
Now you need 5 contribution points, and if you draw it, you will get 20 dead cards, saving a little contribution.
However, now that there are many more awards, it may not be so easy to draw the Death Card.
And many good things are gone, and in the advanced lottery plate, except for the dead card left, the others are all gone.
The pigs, corn, wheat and rice in the intermediate lottery plate are also gone, and Liu An is still quite a pity for this, these are all things that can be sold at a high price.
The next day, Liu An practiced equestrian and swordsmanship for a day as he did yesterday.
After two days like this, that is, the eighteenth day when Liu An came to the Eastern Han Dynasty, Liu An, whose twin strands were already grinding and painful, and who began to walk uncomfortably, decided to give himself a holiday today.
The germination of potatoes is nearing the end, and Liu An looked at the length of the sprouts in the morning and was ready to go to the ground.
So Liu An instructed his subordinates to loosen the soil for the potato field again, and then dug the bean pit according to the spacing required by the system, and sprinkled grass and wood ash in it.
Grass ash can protect potato seeds from underground pests and diseases, and can also provide a suitable growth environment for potato seeds, which plays a vital role in the growth of potatoes.
After another day, Liu An had all the potatoes in the wooden box taken and planted in the potato field, and then covered with layers of soil.
Later, Liu An instructed Qu Ze that when the potatoes grow to about two inches high, remember to intersect the seedlings, and only leave one or two of the strongest potato seedlings in a pit.
At the same time, you should also pay attention to weeds and pests in the field, and remember to clean them up in time if they appear.
After talking about these arrangements, even if Liu An's potato planting is basically completed, the rest of the work will be handled by the people in the village, and he can wait for the harvest himself.
The method of planting carrots, as well as seeds and fertilizers, have also been handed over to Qu Ze, and the next step is to plant peppers, corn, apples, cotton, soybeans and sweet potatoes twenty days later.
Liu An called Qu Ze and carefully taught him the cultivation methods of these crops, and asked him to write them down one by one, and in these twenty days, he had to complete the cultivation, fertilization, and irrigation of the required land.
Then Liu An set aside a fruit tree planting area on the side of the hill on his field, and also asked Qu Ze to trim the field according to the method given by the system.
The day passed in a hurry.
On the second day, Liu An received the news that Liu Ming's convoy had entered Zhuo County.
After these few days of study, Liu An can already easily control the war horse.
He took Liu Bei, the two of them got on horseback, and walked in the direction pointed by the person who came back to deliver the message.
Liu An and Liu Ming's convoy met five miles north of Zhuoxian County.
Seeing Liu An, Liu Ming, Feng Yan and others got out of the car from a distance, and led the cow towards Liu An.
Before the line approached, Liu Ming and several people stepped forward to salute Liu An, Liu An hurriedly dismounted and helped up a few people, and said: "Deran has worked this trip, everyone has worked hard, go to my residence tonight to add food, drink wine and eat meat, Xuande, you will prepare later." ”
Liu Bei nodded and wrote it down, and then Liu Ming reported the gains and losses of the trip to Liu An.
Before they went north, they bought a batch of cheap ceramic utensils in Zhuoxian, and when they passed through Liangxiang and Guangyang along the way, they had sold all 24 ploughing cattle to the family, and got a total of 120,000 yuan.
After that, several people traveled all the way north, and before leaving the country from Yuyang County, they sold ceramics cheaply to the local people.
After leaving the border, several people avoided the possible appearance of the Hu people, found a hidden place on the side of the mountain, and after hiding for five days, they set off to return to Zhuo County.
When they returned, they bought a thousand animal skins at the border, and several men loaded them on five ox carts, and stuffed some wood branches under them to make the carts look full.
After deducting the food and accommodation of a few people, the sale of ceramic furs, and the purchase of weapons, there was a total of 40,000 yuan left, and Liu An took it and handed it over to Liu Bei.
In addition to Liu Ming and Feng Yan, there were five young men present, and Liu An'an all used dead cards.
[Ding - Congratulations to the host for recruiting a total of 15 Manor Dead and gaining 3 Manor Contribution Points.] ]
Ignoring the prompt sound of the system, Liu An did not shy away from extracting the goats, beef cattle, cows and war dogs in the system in front of everyone.
The scene was full of Liu An's dead soldiers, Liu An asked them to keep it secret, everyone would be tight-lipped, even if they were served by the big punishment, they would never reveal a word.
Liu An naturally doesn't have to shy away from it.
When these animals were first extracted, they were all connected to ropes, and they were very honest when facing Liu An.
Liu An signaled that the few people who saw Liu An's creation out of thin air for the first time should not be surprised, and after instructing everyone to tell the public that what they had just seen should not be passed on, he tied a few ropes connected to the animals behind each ox cart, and the war dogs let them follow him.
These war dogs, like the war dogs in the newbie package, Liu An still can't tell what breed they are.
It also looks like a Caucasian shepherd dog, with long and bushy hair like a Tibetan mastiff, and a head similar to that of a Tosa dog.
But no matter what the breed is, as long as you are obedient.
After the five war dogs came out, although they looked around vigilantly, they didn't have any intention of attacking, just staring at the side with a well-trained look.
Then Liu An extracted the pumping paper, duck wings, instant noodles and milk tea and put them in a conspicuous position in the ox cart at the front, so that people could see that he had transported some strange things back from abroad.
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the news between the states and counties was closed and spread slowly, and Liu An only needed to let no one doubt him in his base camp.
After that, even if someone wants to investigate Liu An, they will start the investigation from Zhuo County, so as long as there is no problem here in Zhuo County, buying and selling strange things elsewhere will not arouse suspicion.
It's just that it is unknown whether it will attract the covetousness of evildoers.
After putting the things in place, Liu An led the way in front, and a group of nine people headed towards Zhuoxian County.
Walking on the road in Zhuoxian County, the pedestrians on the street saw that all nine people were holding weapons, and the first two people were riding high-headed horses, which were mighty, and they knew that these people were not easy to mess with, so they got out of the way and let them pass.
Looking at the strange little round barrels placed at the front of the ox cart, and the bags of delicate white blocks, the pedestrians whispered a few words after the ox cart passed.
Liu An didn't care, and rode out of the city slowly.
An hour later, everyone returned to Liu's manor.
Liu An asked people to unload the things, drove the cattle and sheep to the livestock pasture, arranged for people to feed the chickens together, and handed over the feeding method to them.
The war dogs were kept in the manor by Liu An at will, and they would not hurt anyone without Liu An's order anyway, unless someone provoked them.
They brought two servings of paper, instant noodles, milk tea, and a treasure knife, and took Chen Zhao to the city to meet Gongsun Zhan.
