Chapter 466: Built
The hatchback got what they wanted, and they were very satisfied.
Knowing that the main family behind Liu Hu had a lot of food, Niu Ben was even more polite to him.
Since Liu Hu agreed to the request of the county order of Qingshi County, he naturally sent someone to Zhuangzi on the side of Mingzhou Mansion to transport more grain to Nanyue Mansion.
However, this Niu County Order did not say that rice and wheat must be given.
Therefore, the message brought by Liu Hu is not limited to anything, as long as it is in Zhuangzi, it will be sent first.
After receiving such a message, most of the grains sent were sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, and a lot of rice, but there was not a lot of wheat.
After all, in the south, most people eat more rice, and although they don't eat pasta, they still eat less.
Regarding the sweet potato, potato, corn, and wheat rice sent by Liu Hu, Niu Ben found that he only knew three of them, that is, the sweet potato promoted by the new Futai, as well as rice and wheat.
The rest of the potatoes and corn, Niu Ben couldn't recognize what kind of grain they were, so he was a little hesitant to count them in the category of grain.
Liu Hu was not unhappy that Niu Ben didn't know these two things.
Directly let people boil potatoes and corn, and then bring them to Niu Xianling to taste the taste first.
Niu Ben ate the potatoes first, and the entrance was soft, except that there was no taste and the size was not very big, but it was quite similar to the sweet potato.
And this corn made him taste sweet.
I didn't expect it to be so delicious.
It's such an ear of corn, and he actually feels full when he eats it in his stomach as a big man.
Unfortunately, the land in my own county is not suitable for planting.
Otherwise, he would have to plant a few acres of everything, so that the people in his county could eat enough.
Seeing the carts of stones being pulled away, and seeing the carts of grain being pulled, Niu Ben couldn't close his mouth with a smile.
If there is one more business like this every year, the county will not be afraid of hunger.
Ning Pengpeng couldn't help touching his chin when he heard Liu Huyu, who came back, report that Qingshi County could not produce grain, and then asked very puzzled.
"If they know that there is no food production over there, why don't they change places"
Liu Hu listened and sighed.
"Speaking of which, it's just that the homeland is hard to leave!"
Hearing this, Ning Peng sneered.
"Hypocrisy, people are going to starve to death, and they don't care if they don't have their homeland.
Since it is difficult to leave, why did so many ordinary people under Nanyue Mansion run away before? ”
Hearing the old lady say this, Liu Hu choked, as if it was true.
However, this is something that should be troubled by the county magistrate of Qingshi County, and it is not his turn to take care of it!
Liu Hu scratched the back of his head, Ning Peng saw it, and didn't say anything more, just turned his head to look at the half-built tulou, and nodded with satisfaction.
Because of the sea, Ning Pengpeng asked people to directly put the top layer on the top and put it on the top with a slate, so that when the wind and sun are beautiful, they can also catch the sea on the roof.
If it's a storm, don't worry, if a tile falls from the height of this four-story building, it will hit people, and it is estimated that you will be disabled if you don't die.
Because Ning Pengpeng was going to use the roof of the building as a drying field, she directly turned the fourth floor into a warehouse.
On the first floor, a pulley device was made, and as long as a few strong men pulled the rope hard, the planks tied to the pulleys would be raised.
At that time, the seafood is packed up on the first floor, and then put it in a basket, and then put it on the wooden board, which can be pulled upstairs, saving people from climbing to the top of the building with a basket on their backs to dry, which is tiring and troublesome.
The house on the first floor was for the servants and servants of the Ning Mansion, the second floor was the guest room, and the third floor was the room where the main family lived.
Each floor has a bathroom, a kitchen and a utility room.
This is in the inner ring, and although the outer ring is also four stories high, there are only one, two, and three floors, which can be walked up the stairs.
Except for the first floor, you can enter the house directly from the street.
The entrances to the second and third floors are less than two meters away, and they are blocked with stones, so you don't have to worry about children accidentally falling from the upper floor.
Of course, in this way, the size of the house will be much smaller.
It can be said that if the first floor is a three-bedroom apartment, then the second floor is a two-bedroom apartment, and the third floor is a bachelor apartment.
Because the area of the fourth floor is too small, the house was not built at all, but the city wall was raised and made into a city wall aisle several meters wide.
Patrol people can take a walk around this aisle.
As long as each patrol is arranged with a team of two people, a total of four teams, you can observe the situation outside the tulou clearly without dead ends.
Liu Hu looked at the day the tulou was built, and he burst into tears.
What a majestic house, no more worrying about pirates coming ashore like that night!
Although this is a stone house, Ning Pengpeng still asked people to burn charcoal and roast it in the house to remove moisture.
Then, Ning Pengpeng gathered all the fishermen in Yujiawan and asked them to distribute the size of the house according to the population of each family.
Everyone in Yujiawan was moved to tears after listening to the host's intimate arrangement.
Seeing that there were still many empty houses, he couldn't help but go to Liu Hu and asked if he could let the fishermen he knew come to live in the tulou of the Ning family?
It's just that Liu Hu refused.
After all, although there are still many remaining houses now, if the Ning family wants to buy a servant woman in the future, then the servant woman will also become a biological baby.
At that time, there may not be enough place to live.
If we wait until that time to evict the fishermen living in the tulou, it will be the opposite of the original intention of giving them houses to live in for free.
Moreover, it is a white thing.
Now these fishermen may feel grateful, but after a while, they will feel that it is too easy and take it for granted.
Liu Hu felt that he had to make them feel that being able to live in the Ning family's tulou was a blessing that they had cultivated for eight lifetimes.
I have to say that Liu Hu understands the root of people's inferiority very well.
Ning Pengpeng also understood, so she agreed with Liu Hu's decision.
Here, the Ningjia tulou was built, and all the fishermen whose houses were burned down in Yujiawan lived in the tulou.
The soldiers and horses of Mingzhou Mansion over there also arrived at Nanyue Mansion.
The leading general first went to meet Cui Qingyuan, the lord of Futai, Nanyue Prefecture.
Then he took the letter written by Lord Xie Futai in his arms and respectfully handed it to Lord Cui.
Cui Qingyuan opened the letter and read the content in three or two clicks.
Xie Qiping's content is also very simple and clear, because the soldiers and horses he sent are not familiar with the terrain on this side of Nanyue Province.
Therefore, the 3,000 soldiers and horses sent this time were all under the full command of Cui Qingyuan, so that the leading general, after arriving in Nanyue Mansion, just listen to the arrangement of Lord Cui.
Seeing the content of Xie Qiping's letter, Cui Qingyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
