"These mules are only half a year old. This is the son of Wenhou Chitu Ma, who grows very fast, but his personality is not very good, he is a little irritable, and it seems that he can't plow the land, and he can be sent to the military camp in the future. ”

The government-run commercial houses under Lu Bu began to lay out in Xuzhou.

The model of selling horses and piglets on credit not only allows the people to make a fortune quickly, but also enables the government-run commercial banks to achieve extremely high profits.

Liu Laowu's family lives in a small village in the northwest mountains of Pengcheng, with a daughter-in-law and three teenage sons.

A man in his thirties does not live as well as a dog, his family only has ten acres of dry land, he works when he is busy with farming, and when he is not busy, he goes to the city to do odd jobs, life is tight, he can't even afford to eat lard, and the pants worn by the children are exposed.

On this day, Liu Lao Wu came back with four little pigs in a basket, and each little pig was only about 30 catties.

The daughter-in-law was enjoying the shade under the tree at the gate of the yard, and it was really hot.

"Boss, aren't you crazy, where did you get the money to get four little pigs?"

"Old lady, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and clean up the pig house, I'll put the piglets in, what about our three babies?"

"Well, play by the river."

The daughter-in-law went to clean the pig barn, and Liu Lao Wu shouted at his three sons: "Get back to Lao Tzu." ”

The three boys ran fast as soon as they slipped away, and the pants of the third ran fell off.

"Daddy, daddy, daddy."

"I forgot what my father said, the summer rain is soaring, and it is easy to drown, all of them are listened to by Lao Tzu, from today on, each of you will have a basket of tender grass every day to feed the piglets. The piglets grow up and give birth to piglets. In the future, every one of you will be able to marry a wife, and if you don't, you will all be beaten as a bachelor. ”

When the three boys heard this, there were piglets, and they hurriedly went over to see that the four piglets were all in the basket, and they happily teased the piglets.

Liu Lao Wu and his daughter-in-law cleaned up the pig house, put the little pig in, and the little pig played happily in it.

It's one boar, three sows.

The daughter-in-law asked: "Boss, where did you get the money to buy pigs, and the family has only 100 yuan." ”

Liu Lao Wu was very happy: "On credit, white slips." You can return the eight little pigs after two years, or you can return 600 yuan. ”

"People don't have to worry about letting you play white stripes?"

"Of course I don't worry, but I'm not an ordinary person now, I do a kiln in General Wu's team, I have a lot of strength, I work well, one hundred and fifty a month, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to give me four pigs on credit, if you want to say that it's better for us to Xuzhou Thorn Shi Lu, drive away the Cao thief, and give us poor people a little pig on credit."

The daughter-in-law was even more proud: "Just look at it, I'm an expert in raising pigs." You three boys, you have to let me check the pigweed before you can feed the pigs. ”

"Got it, mother."

Pigs are not sheep after all, they can feed grass, but they can't eat all of it. It should be fed with rice bran, bean skin, melon and vegetables, etc., and eat pigweed every morning and evening, and noon.

The more Liu Lao Wu thought about it, the better it became: "The people on the pig farm said that three sows can give birth to at least 20 piglets at a time, and when the time comes, the pig money will be repaid, and then more than a dozen piglets can be sold." Pig manure fertilizes the field, which can produce more grain. If you can raise hundreds of piglets and a dozen fat pigs a year, our third son will not worry about his daughter-in-law. ”

"It's okay to be in charge, I can do it, I'm the best at raising pigs."

Liu Lao Wu only rested at home for one night, and returned to Pengcheng early the next morning to continue to burn bricks in the brick factory.

The first batch of piglets transported a total of 200 wagons, but only a few thousand.

It took five or six days for the commercial bank to complete the distribution, and the condition review was relatively strict.

A few days later, after the adjustment of Xuzhou was completed, Zhao Yu was in charge of the government affairs of Xuzhou and Pengcheng counties, and was in charge of 3,000 infantry. Cao Bao was the chief general of Xuzhou, with 3,000 cavalry and 7,000 infantry. Sun Qian was the county guard of Pengcheng and was in charge of 1,500 infantry. Wu Anguo was the general of Pengcheng, with 500 cavalry and 5,000 infantry, only the rest of Xuzhou County was not taken.

When the news came, Zhang Fei fled back to Xiapi, with six injuries on his body, and he didn't get out of bed for more than a month.

Liu Bei regretted it, but there was no choice but to send Jian Yong to beg Lu Bu for mercy, and the three brothers temporarily lived in Xiapi.

Lu Bu originally intended to lead his troops to storm Xiapi, who would have thought that news came from Qingzhou that the Yellow River was flooded, and tens of thousands of people were affected, and Lu Bu had a headache, so he decided to return to the army first to relieve the disaster, and temporarily let Liu Bei go.

When Lü Bu returned to Jinan County, it was already the height of summer, and Qingzhou had already entered the rainy season, with strong winds and rains, and the river water was surging, especially the Yellow River.

This is the real end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, disasters continued, and the common people responded poorly to disasters, and there were often big problems.

The city of Jinan was full of horse-drawn carriages, pulling small boats, and set off north to Pingyuan County to support.

Zhao Yun's White Horse Camp is in the plains, and the people along the river have been notified in advance, but a large number of people are trapped on some isolated islands, and now the water has receded.

Zhang Ying led 10,000 infantry to catch up with thousands of wagons of supplies, food, and boats to come to support.

The roads were muddy, and Zhang Ying personally went into battle, digging and repairing the roads shirtless.

"Brothers, don't embarrass our battalion, Wen Hou didn't take us with him about the war, if anyone drags back Lao Tzu during the disaster relief, don't blame the ruthlessness of military law."

"Don't worry, General Zhang, Wen Hou has nothing to say to us, there is no shortage of food and food, we are all grateful to repay it."

"Report to the general, there are more than 100 people trapped on a hill for several days, living on grazing."

Zhang Ying led the team to take a look, the water is quite deep, and it can be more than 100 meters wide, but fortunately, it is not a torrent.

"Quick, the medic will go first, then pull the rope, and the other boats will go over."

"Yes."

Zhang Ying led a few people with good water quality, and went over with two medical soldiers, and then pulled a thin towing rope.

"Everybody's all right."

The people on the island are already dehydrated, because there is no clean water, the flood they drink, the stomach is too bad, and their lips are dry.

"Master Jun, help, help."

"Don't worry, Wenhou sent us to rescue you. Find a few who are in good health, come over and help light the fire, give everyone less hot water to drink, and then eat. ”

Zhang Ying boiled boiling water for everyone and added a small amount of white sugar.

The victims drank some sugar water and immediately felt refreshed.

got on the wooden boat and sent it to safety in batches.

In order to facilitate relief, Zhang Ying found a spacious and spacious area, set up camp for the victims, and cooked sorghum rice porridge.

However, there are still people who die due to old age and infirmity, and in order not to spread the plague, they can only be buried as soon as possible.
