Chapter 46 is finally a bit of a prototype of feudalism
Yun Chu stood on his own polo field with emotion.
Looking at his own polo field, which was even grander than Liang Jianfang's polo field, Yun Chu wanted to kill Liu Yi even more.
Because the polo field does not have a fixed area, the Yun family's polo field is limited to a square with a length of 100 meters and a width.
This is a standard six-person team, twelve-player competition venue, of course, if you think you are good, it is not impossible to deal with six people by yourself.
The smaller the venue, the more intense the competition will be, of course, this is still not comparable with the royal polo field, I heard that Li Zhi also has a polo field in Qujiang, occupying about three miles of land...... Perfect for cavalry armies to chase a wooden ball inside. (Not nonsense, the reference is the Yeshan Polo Stadium in the Tang Dynasty of Fuzhou)
In the fourth year of Yonghui, there were more than 710,000 horses in Datang.
The Polo Field of the Yun family is really good, the foundation is made of fire soil and Sanhe soil, so the grass does not grow, and because the loess is poured with oil to lay ten layers, so the ground is soft and moderate, does not hurt the horse's hooves, and the last layer is the loess with oil and oil, which leads to the fast horse galloping here, will not be dusty.
As for the nonsense of what kind of light can be seen, it is a polite remark made by Chang'an people who occasionally see a little reflected oil on the polo field.
Liu Yi not only built a polo field, but also built an awning around the field to facilitate spectators to watch polo matches.
The shed is very large, and the steps below are high and low, which is not much different from the stadium that Yun Chu has seen, and it is very creative.
On the back of the shed, a lot of open small shops have been built, and seeing this, Yun Chu no longer complains about Liu Yi's extra money.
The ball horse used by the woman Liu Yi to play ball is not much bigger than a donkey, and it looks very docile, and the biggest feature is that as long as the hollow wooden ball appears, these ball horses will stare at the wooden ball and have the desire to charge at the wooden ball.
Two tall women with thin waists, big buttocks, and a pair of hoop legs are teaching a group of little girls including Naha, Big Fat, and Mi Niang.
These two women were no more than twenty-five years old, and their heads and faces were tanned by the sun, and it was not an exaggeration to call them old grandmothers.
It can be seen that they are very hard, sweat sticks their hair to their foreheads, and their voices are a little hoarse, after seeing Yun Chu, the head of the family, come over, they seem to be more attentive, and personally get on the horse to demonstrate, only to see that the two of them do not control the reins at all on the horse, and can make these ball horses rotate freely by relying only on two legs.
Naha, a group of little girls who watched were there clapping and shouting desperately.
"Lang Jun is still satisfied?" Liu Yi stood beside Yun Chu with a smile, smiling very obscenely.
Yun Chu looked at Cui Shi on the other side and said, "Can you guarantee that the money invested will be recovered?" How long does it take to get it back? ”
Cui Shi smiled and said, "I have already received a fixed amount of one hundred and sixty yuan." ”
Yun Chu looked at Liu Yi and wondered: "Set the money?" ”
Liu Yi hurriedly said: "Naha little lady, they haven't practiced yet, and the polo field is not used for the time being, so the villain discussed it with Mama Cui, and rented out the polo field according to the number of days, ten yuan a day, and in two days, they received a fixed fee of one hundred and sixty yuan."
The villain is confident that he will fill up the time of this month, and strive to rent it for 30 days a month and get back 300 yuan, so that in a year, our family can recover all the money invested in it. ”
Yun Chu said: "What you think is too beautiful, rainy days, snowy days, windy days, no one comes at this time." ”
Liu Yi said in surprise: "Good my Langjun, when the rain fights, the snow fights, and the wind fights, it is the time when God rewards our family with food, and the rent will be doubled on such days, and the wind, rain and snow will be stronger, and the more the rent will rise."
If you can meet the hail, God, if the villain does not increase the rent more than ten times, even if the villain is a fool.
Lang Jun, don't you know the quirks of those rich people, in May of the eighteenth year of Zhenguan, there was a polo game in Zuo Wuwei, and when the game was fierce, suddenly hail fell from the sky, hail as big as pigeon eggs, and the armor of the Jin Wuwei was clicking.
Everyone thought that the game was about to end, but Emperor Taizong, who was watching the game at the time, looked at Tiandao: I am not convinced.
Then, Emperor Taizong changed his clothes and went off the field to play polo, not only him, but also the civil and military generals of the Tang Dynasty who were present at that time asked to play.
The more intense the hail, the more intense the polo on the field became, and the spectators even knocked down the sheds, and both men and women stood in the hail field, cheering for their lives.
As a result, a polo game was not finished, and the dark clouds in the sky dispersed.
What's even more strange is that this hailstorm fell on Chang'an City, and even the farmland in Chang'an and Wannian counties was not affected much.
After hearing the news, Emperor Taizong said that it was the soldiers on the court and the cheering people in the city who saved the disaster for the farmland around the Tang Dynasty.
Since then, whenever there is bad weather, and the worse the weather, the more desperate it is for those people to play polo.
Therefore, we have such a good all-oil polo field, plus there are many people here, next to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, it is convenient to eat and drink, if you rent less than 30 days a month, it is not a villain. ”
After listening to Liu Yi's talk about the ancients, Yun Chu breathed a sigh of relief, and now, he is very sure that building a polo field for Naha or something is simply an excuse, Liu Yi and Cui's want to expand the business territory of Jinchangfang, this is their real purpose, Jinchangfang only has a big canteen to attract customers The means are too simple.
Now that there is a high-end polo field, it will attract some distinguished guests to Jinchangfang, after all, people who can come to the big canteen to eat with the people will not have a high status.
With a polo field, by the way, a more high-end small canteen in the polo field should be very good.
Yun Chu glanced at Cui Shi, who was smiling like Maitreya Buddha, and pointed at Liu Yi and said to her: "Since he has grown up in the field well, and he has to enter the house as a slave, then he will do what he wants."
However, he did not want his whole family, but left a wise son to continue to be the chief of the house, and the rest, both men and women, were brought in as slaves.
You look at the call to death. ’
As for this old guy, he will be in charge of the affairs of the outer house in the future, and you will not have to contact the foreign man in the future, if there is anything to do directly, he will be directly ordered to do it. ”
Cui's smiled and groaned, but Liu Yi knelt in front of Yun Chu with a puff, hugged his fists and said: "The old slave has seen Langjun, thank Langjun for his grace." ”
Yun Chu couldn't see Liu Yi crying, so he waved his sleeves and went home.
Cui's salute to Liu Yi and said, "The concubine is the manager of Liu. ”
Liu Yi hugged his fists uprightly and said: "Liu Yi, the steward of the outer house, has seen the chief steward, but he has an order, and Liu Yi obeys everything. ”
Cui Shi said with emotion: "Lang Jun easily does not recruit people at home, this time he really sees you in his eyes, in the future, you must work diligently, and you must not be arrogant because of favor, and ruin my Yun family's style." ”
Liu Yi arched his hand and said, "Only." ”
Liu Yi left his eldest son Liu Fang to succeed him as the mayor of Guangmingli, and concurrently served as the head of Jinchangfang, with his wife Li, his second son Liu Ming, and his third son Liu Hui's two sons, signed a deed with Cui's family, and officially moved into the Yun family.
In another month, Yun Chu will officially marry Yu Xiurong, and the maids and servants in the family are obviously not enough.
In a formal big family, the maids and servants around Yu Xiurong need to be equipped with at least six maids, four healthy women, and two servants waiting in the atrium at any time to be called.
Liu Yi's wife and two daughters-in-law can serve as some people, and the rest need to be found from home.
From two fats to seven fatties, from one mother to ten mothers, these people's hands are completely inappropriate, even if their body shape is very in line with the title of healthy women, but, in the past few years, they have not done the work of serving people, and they are all errands for stewards, and none of them can be used.
Cui's decided to buy some daughters from good families who knew the roots from Jinchangfang, and the mother-in-law came in.
Because, Naha's body has begun to draw strips, and it is far from enough for a maid to have only one big fat, and it should be equipped with at least four little maids in addition to the big fat girl, two healthy women, and two mothers-in-law.
Not only that, as an eldest woman, Yu Xiurong needs a carriage worthy of her identity, as well as two attendant carriages.
Naha needed a boudoir carriage even more, and in the future, if it wasn't necessary, she couldn't just ride around on the black horse.
Yun Chu didn't need to follow him for a long time, because it was very inconvenient, and besides, he hated being with someone all the time.
One more person by his side, in case he gets sick and wants to kill someone, it is a bad thing to have one more witness.
The swallows under the eaves of the Yun family finally flew away, and the old swallows led the group of clumsy little swallows to fly away, and Yun Chu hoped that they could fly safely to the winter land and then multiply.
The swallows flew away, but the Big Wild Goose Pagoda did not know when, attracted a flock of wild pigeons to stay there, every morning, you can see them around the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, flying in circles, sometimes, will also touch the copper bell on the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, the tinkling is irritating.
These days, the Yun family is very busy, and the Cui family and Liu Yi, the two big housekeepers inside and outside, are almost busy without touching the ground.
Every day there is something busy, and every day something new comes up.
Under their busyness, the originally deserted Yun family finally had the appearance of being a little overcrowded.
The court is still calm, the eldest grandson Wuji because of his hard work, the emperor decreed, Yin Changsun Jin, Shang Yi Fengyu, Changsun Ze, Zuo Qianniu Wei Changshi, Changsun Run, Taichang Shaoqing, Feng Jincheng County.
The eldest grandson Wuji thanked him one after another, but he was returned by the emperor.
At the same time, there was also a farewell watch of Chu Suiliang who was shot by the right servant......
