Chapter Twenty-Nine: Bitter Tea Rises
After Li He returned home, he saw Zhong Min and heard that he had stabbed Luo Da, although his heart was very happy, but it was a pity.
"Although Luo Da has explained in detail, if he is left with his life for the time being, he may be able to find out the news of the kiln village."
Li He shook his head.
"This kiln village is a little weird, Luo Da seems to have a curse on his body, if he is left alive, I am afraid it will be bad. At present, what Kuchaling needs most is time, and this scourge cannot be left behind.
As for the matter of the kiln village, we must settle accounts with them, and they have already treated us as a meal, and if we don't resist, we will only be slaughtered by others.
And, find out if I have a better candidate. ”
After speaking, he clapped his hands, and suddenly a strong man walked out of the curtain on the side, with a dull face, a strong body, and a pair of dead gray eyes.
Then Liu Ruhua walked out, the bright red nails lightly touched his head, and the cloudy eyes suddenly became smart, as if they came to life, and Luo Da was the same, as if the person who walked out of the portrait, although there was an awkward feeling, non-acquaintances could not detect it.
Seeing such a scene, although Zhong Min knew Liu Ruhua's methods, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart. It's a shame that the lord of the mansion can control the other party, otherwise the chaos will be raging out of control.
He knew the methods of the lord of the house, and as a Taoist priest, he must know better about the passes, so he only said the information he was more familiar with.
"Speaking of this kiln village, it has been very famous before. This village is rich in ancient iron, which is a mineral and a special metal that can conduct channel gas.
After many forces bought the ancient iron, they directly burned the Dao talisman on it, which had great killing power.
Then there is the grinding of ancient iron into powder, whether it is to refine a higher grade material or to prepare Daobao, it is a good choice, so the transaction market is very good, and the people of the kiln village are also quite rich. ”
This is very similar to the green bamboo of the Li family before, except that the ancient iron is obviously a metal thing, which is more sharp and sharp, suitable for armament.
Li He asked.
"How's the yield?"
Zhong Min thought for a moment before replying.
"Judging from the annual tax paid, fifty bags of iron powder can make five hundred shoddy utensils or fifty refined swordsmen. It is estimated that the village can produce at least 500 bags of ancient iron powder every year, and if you take into account the self-retention, I am afraid that it will be more. ”
The so-called shoddy utensils are similar to arrow talismans, which are not much, but they are also better than ordinary pig iron, and they can play a better role as a talisman.
If you are more detailed, just like Luo Er's spear, it is obviously exquisitely crafted, and if you encounter a strange convoy, you can even destroy it with the weapon in your hand.
"In the past, the trade rules, a bag of iron powder cost twenty spirit coins, and it will rise at special moments, which belongs to the kind that has no price."
Li He naturally understands what a special moment is, for example, the current chaos in Li Town, I am afraid that he will not be able to buy ancient iron at double the price. This is the same as Xiangrui, you can also get thousands of spirit coins that usually look like they are old, but when you actually buy them, they will float a lot, and they are completely in short supply.
It wasn't until this moment that Li He knew why Kiln Village had such confidence. You must know that Kuchaling usually sells tea, and the annual harvest of thousands of spirit coins has reached the top, and when the harvest is not good, it is hundreds of spirit coins, which is simply incomparable.
"What about Rye Ridge?"
This time, it was Liu Wu who stood up and took the initiative to explain.
"The land of grain production in Shanhe County is usually based on three-color soil, black, brown and yellow. Black soil is known for its fertility and high yield; Brown soil is mainly compatible with water and soil, and can meet a variety of extreme conditions to grow spiritual plants; Loess is of high quality and is suitable for cultivating those delicate spiritual plants. ”
"The so-called rye is wheat cultivated in the black soil, and the yield is quite abundant, although there are not many special effects, but it is no problem to fill the stomach. The production of Rye Ridge alone can feed 50,000 people for a year. ”
I really don't know if I don't listen, and I'm shocked when I hear it.
Li He did have a certain overestimation of the land catalyzed by Xiangrui, but he didn't expect that the small Rye Ridge could produce so much grain, you must know that the entire Kuchaling is only about 1,000 people, and Li Zhen is only 100,000 people at most.
Rye Ridge alone can raise fifty bitter tea ridges, half of Li Town. So why are the people so poor and hungry?
As if knowing what the mansion master asked, Liu Wu said bitterly.
"Due to the large production of rye, the price is not too expensive, so the owner of the house only sells a small part of it, and the vast majority of it is converted into spiritual feed, medicinal fertilizer, etc., to obtain greater profits."
It's really Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road.
Li He suddenly lost his sense of guilt for his next plan, originally thinking that Rye Ridge was just framed and could let him go, but now it seems that it is just a raccoon dog. Since the two families are going to make trouble, they will be sent away together.
It just so happens that the human face tea lacks a Taoist carrier, and if you obtain the ancient iron ore, it will definitely be able to greatly strengthen its strength. At that time, even if there is a change in Li Zhen, there will be a countermeasure.
"What is the current cultivation of human face tea?"
Speaking of this, Liu Wu showed joy.
"With the support of Jiupin Xiangrui, the output of human face tea is very gratifying. After careful cultivation and care, about two bags of new tea are produced a week, and the surrounding boundaries are gradually expanded, and according to this development, the development is complete, and about one bag of new tea powder is ground every day.
It's just that there is a gradual shortage of manpower, and there are few people in Kuchaling, and the population in the mountain alone is no longer enough to maintain human tea. I have transferred some manpower from three tuns to barely maintain it, but if we continue to expand the planting, there will be a shortage of manpower in the future.
I don't know if the lord of the mansion can consider receiving human face tea auspicious? If you practice and then cooperate with planting, you will have to adapt to a period of time. ”
Generally speaking, auspicious rays are born in the wilderness and need to be stabilized for a period of time before they are collected. If the Taoist priest is often in the house, it will not hurt, and let the auspicious rui grow freely every three or five times; If you carry it with you for a long journey, you need special means to contain the spirit and maintain its vitality and state.
Li He has a catalogue and can't fuse Xiangrui, so he can only let the noodle tea grow in the wilderness, and from another point of view, it also plays the role of Xiangrui to the fullest.
Of course, the human face tea auspicious rui is not completely wild auspicious, before he dripped blood on the tea leaves, and the human face tea field appeared in the catalogue, forming a strange symbiotic relationship, but he couldn't use the auspicious rui to perform the Tao.
"Xiangrui I have my own arrangements, just keep the current state."
"Yes, sir!"
"The current state of the human face tea is very gratifying, Liu Wu, you have made a lot of contributions, reward you with 500 spirit coins, work hard, the materials or cheats that the pharmacist needs later, if you get it, you will definitely give priority to it."
Liu Ruhua walked out with a beautiful box, slowly handed it to Liu Wu, and gently opened the box, which was full of aura and dazzling.
Liu Wu took the box with a trembling hand, although the spirit coin was eye-catching, he didn't pay much attention to it, just a pair of eyes looked at the picturesque, showing a relieved gaze.
The guards who died also received 300 spirit coins for each funeral, and arranged to take care of their families. The government was rewarded with 600 spirit coins. ”
"Whoever has merit in bitter tea, I will not treat it badly, and I look forward to all of you working together."
Li He turned his head to look around, and finally said.
"As for the population shortage, I have my own means, don't worry."
"Now that the times are in turmoil, we wanted to live in a corner in peace, but who is the sword, and I am the fish. In this case, it is better to fight back and earn a life capital! ”
Several people around him were also obviously excited.
"Keep up with the adults!"
Only Liu Ruhua pursed her lips, disapproving, maybe she was wondering what these stinky men were howling about.
Although Li He's face was excited, his heart was dripping blood, and this reward was given, and the accumulation of Mu Mansion couldn't stop it.
Since it is not possible to throttle, it has to be open-sourced, and Rye Ridge and Yaocun took the initiative to send it, so it is no wonder that he is unexpected.
