Chapter 184: The Soldier Goes Home to Deliver New Year's Goods
Farm.
After yesterday afternoon, plus this morning's slaughter.
From afar, you can smell the blood in the entire farm.
On the farm, a group of soldiers came and went, and they were in full swing.
With Zhu Di's arrival, Tang Yun directly stepped forward to meet him with a happy face.
"Your Royal Highness, Wei Chen is fortunate not to be dishonored, five hundred pigs, five hundred sheep, five hundred chickens, and five hundred ducks have been slaughtered and defethered, disemboweled, and cleaned up, Your Highness, please come with Wei Chen to ......"
In several spacious houses, pigs, sheep, chickens, and ducks are all lying together cleanly, piled up into small hills.
On the side, there are piles of internal organs, pig blood, and duck blood......
"Hiss......"
"How many pounds does this have?"
Not only Zhu Fu and the officials of the Yanwang Mansion stared at them directly, but even Zhu Di and Guo An couldn't help but feel shocked when they suddenly looked at it.
Tang Yun said: "Your Highness, 14,520 catties of pig meat, 5,600 catties of mutton, 500 chickens, 500 ducks, and thousands of catties of duck blood and pig blood......
"Very good!"
Zhu Di said with excitement on his face: "We didn't expect that our Yanwang Mansion could be so rich, just so many chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep?" This year is really a great harvest year......"
"Thanks to His Royal Highness's wisdom and martial arts, this year, I can not only eat enough from top to bottom of the Yan Palace, but also eat meat." Tang Yun hurriedly flattered.
He said this sincerely.
At least this year is the best year for his more than 10,000 brothers in Yanshanwei, who not only has enough food on weekdays, but also occasionally eats fish and meat.
And in the cold winter, there are still fresh vegetables to eat, and now at the time of this year's festival, so many pigs and sheep are still slaughtered?
Great harvest year!
This is the situation of the prosperous world, and they have never dared to think of it before.
"Your Highness is wise! This year is the year of great harvest in my Yanwang Mansion......"
Behind him, Zhu Fu and the officials of the Yanwang Mansion shouted excitedly.
At the forefront, Zhu Di's expression was inexplicable, and the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.
"How are Zhu Qing and Guo Qing going to distribute it?"
After being excited for a long time, Zhu Di finally remembered what was going on, turned his head and asked Zhu Fu and Guo An.
Behind him, a group of officials and generals suddenly held their breath and stared at Zhu Fu and Guo An.
After pondering for a moment, Zhu Fu spoke: "Your Highness, Weichen thinks that in order to show fairness, it is better to distribute according to the rank of officials. ”
Zhu Di nodded slightly, then turned his head to look at Guo An again: "What do you think Guo Qing can have?" ”
Guo An hurriedly replied, "Weichen seconded the proposal. However, at the time of the New Year's festival, His Highness distributed meat such as pig meat and mutton as a show of grace. Therefore, even the lowest soldiers and scribes must not receive too little meat such as pig meat and mutton. ”
"Good."
Zhu Di nodded slightly, "In this way, the soldiers and those subordinates will each be given at least half a catty of meat." ”
"Your Highness Shengming!"
Guo An hurriedly flattered.
On the side, Zhu Fu and Tang Yun and other officials and generals also praised him.
Even if you give half a catty of meat to those subordinates and soldiers, the remaining meat is enough for them, the officials, generals, and colonels to eat.
Zhu Di waved his hand and said arrogantly: "In this way, you will distribute it quickly!" ”
"Obey!"
Zhu Fu and a group of scribes responded with excitement on their faces, and then took a few account books and prepared to walk in.
It's just that after taking two steps, Zhu Fu and a group of scribes stood in front of those Roshan, full of thoughts, but they didn't do it for a long time.
Zhu Di couldn't help but be a little puzzled: "Zhu Qing, why is there anything wrong?" ”
Zhu Fu looked embarrassed, "Your Highness forgives me, it's the first time Wechen has seen so much meat, and he was a little at a loss for a while." ”
"Huh?"
Zhu Di was stunned, he hadn't shared so much meat, and it was no wonder that Zhu Fu had been divided.
However, Guo An came up with this matter, so Zhu Di turned his head and looked at Guo An on the side.
"What is Guo Qing's good idea?"
Guo An arched his hand and said: "Your Highness, Wei Chen has a humble opinion, you can give me the top and bottom of the Yanwang Mansion first, and everyone will get half a catty of pig meat, which should be enough."
In addition, the mutton is divided into five taels according to the official grade.
Moreover, chickens and ducks, as well as pig blood and duck blood......
Also, Wei Chen thinks that some of the craftsmen and shop guys in the workshop are more or less the people of my Yanwang Mansion.
Therefore, it is also necessary to distribute some to them, although it is not necessary to have too many, but it is also necessary to let them know that His Royal Highness King Yan has not forgotten them! ”
Zhu Di nodded slightly, then turned his head to look at Zhu Fu on the side: "Zhu Qing, how is this method?" ”
Zhu Fu's beard shook, and he said again and again: "Back to Your Highness, this method is very wonderful." ”
"Good!"
Zhu Di said with satisfaction: "Then go and distribute it!" ”
"Obey!"
At this time, Zhu Fu and the officials did not hesitate, and they all began to take the account books and distribute them with their heads.
As for Zhu Di and Guo An, they just stood aside quietly and watched.
Before you know it, the sky is getting dark.
And the small Roshan in the large rooms on the farm also dissipated quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"This is what our Yan King should do!"
Looking at the officials and generals who were all full of excitement, the previous distress in Zhu Di's heart disappeared unconsciously.
……
Night.
The entire province of Peiping was plunged into darkness.
And in a village in Wanping County, five figures suddenly appeared.
Everyone seems to be carrying a lot of things on their backs.
In his hand, he also held a steel spear or steel knife with a cold light.
A dark shadow skillfully walked up to a house and knocked lightly on the door outside the courtyard, and the sound of a knock was very harsh in the silent night.
"Dad, mother, baby, open the door, I'm back......"
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of rustling in the house.
Then, an old voice asked tentatively, "But Wu'er?" ”
"Dad, it's me, Kuisheng."
The man outside the house hurriedly said.
"Is it really Kuisheng?"
Several voices of surprise suddenly sounded in the room.
"Squeaky ......"
Immediately, the door opened.
An old man walked out slowly with a pickaxe in his hand and bent over his waist.
"Is it really Kuisheng?"
"Dad, it's me!"
The man said again.
Hearing this, the old man finally let down his vigilance, and opened the courtyard gate, allowing the man outside the door to walk in.
"Kuisheng, why did you come back at this hour? But what happened? ”
After entering the house, the old man hurriedly asked.
At the same time, a young woman also walked in through the door in the dark, also holding a small child.
"Dad, mother, and Yingzi, don't worry, it's a good thing that I'm back this time, it's a great thing."
The strong man also knew what his father and daughter-in-law were worried about, and hurriedly said.
"What's good?"
"Could it be that your kid has been promoted?"
The strong man hurriedly said: "Daddy, it is His Royal Highness King Yan who has sent New Year's goods to the child and waiting for Yan Shanwei." ”
"Sending New Year's goods?"
Inside the house, several people were surprised.
Immediately, the old man hurriedly asked, "What New Year's goods did His Royal Highness King Yan send you?" ”
"Dad, the child is a small flag, and a total of five taels of pig meat ......"
"What, piggy? Or five taels? ”
As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of exclamations in the room, although it was dark and invisible, the man could imagine the surprised looks on his father's mother and daughter-in-law's faces.
couldn't help grinning, and continued: "There are two taels of mutton, one or two pigs, two fresh courgettes, and two taels of leeks." ”
"There are mutton, pig blood, fresh courgettes, and leeks?"
Suddenly, there was another sound of surprise in the house, and the breathing of several people in the room became short.
"Son, go and light the oil lamp." The old man hurriedly shouted.
"Yes, yes, it's ......"
In the countryside, after dark, the common people will go to bed early in order to save money.
Even if there is an oil lamp lit in the home, it will only be lit when it is critical, and there is nothing important on weekdays, and the oil lamp will never be lit.
And tonight, not only did the son come back, but he also brought back so much meat, they had to take a look at it and make sure it, otherwise they would miss it all night and couldn't sleep.
Call!
As a simple oil lamp was carried by a gray-haired old woman, several people in the room could finally see the appearance of the man opposite.
He was dressed in armor and had a steel knife hanging from his waist.
Of course, a few people were still looking at the package that the man was carrying behind him.
"Daddy?"
After seeing the man's appearance clearly, the little boy in the arms of the young woman on the side suddenly looked surprised.
"Haha, Stone, Daddy brought you back meat."
The man laughed, and carefully took off the package on his back.
Then, slowly open it in front of several people.
"This ......"
In front of the eye, there are several packages inside the large package.
The man opened the slightly larger package on the top, and a piece of frozen frozen pig meat, a piece of frozen mutton, and a small piece of frozen porcelain pig blood, two courgettes, and a handful of leeks suddenly appeared.
However, no matter how careful the man is, there are still a few leeks that are directly broken into several pieces.
"Sure enough, it's meat and vegetables!"
"This year, we can finally have a good meal of meat during the New Year."
"His Royal Highness King Yan is merciful! ……”
Inside the house, several people were full of joy and tears.
"Eat meat, eat meat, stones will eat meat......"
On the side, the little boy shouted with joy on his face.
"Eat, eat, don't be in a hurry, let your mother cook meat for you early tomorrow morning!"
The man gently touched the little boy's head, looking doting.
Then the old man and the old woman looked at the remaining packages.
"Kuisheng, what's in these?"
The man hurriedly replied: "Daddy, this is the meat New Year's goods issued to Dashanzi by His Royal Highness King Yan, as well as the Iron Hammer."
This time, His Royal Highness King Yan's Mansion sent New Year's goods to everyone, but we soldiers can't all ask for leave to come back to deliver New Year's goods.
Therefore, the children, Changping, and the big dog came back overnight to deliver these New Year's goods. ”
"It's all meat in there, too?"
Hearing this, the old woman hurriedly looked at the packages, and a glimmer of light flashed in her cloudy eyes.
The man was anxious, "Daddy, the children, the mountains, and the hammers are all blocking each other's knives, and we must not live up to their trust!" ”
The old man also glared at the old woman fiercely, "What do you think of this mother-in-law, we are all neighbors, and we don't see you when you look up."
Moreover, Kuisheng and Iron Hammer are in one hundred households, if they go to the battlefield, they will be given a blocking knife at a critical time, and you must fight these ideas.
Otherwise, it will hurt Kui Sheng in the end......"
The old woman sighed softly, "Don't fight, don't fight." I'm going to die, but I'm just a pity for our little stone, from childhood to adulthood, I can't eat a few meals of meat a year......"
