Chapter 60: Gratification

Li Yuan was not angry when he heard this, and gave Zhu Gaoxuan a thumbs up, feeling relieved.

"Your Highness, if you can have such thoughts, it is the consciousness that a prince should have.

Those who work hard, those who work rule others. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxuan smiled and said: "Lao Li, it's better not to let the master hear what you say, otherwise you will definitely have a ring ruler."

Mencius, the old man, meant to advocate the social division of labor, you are taking it out of context. ”

"Hey...... Your Highness has taught you a lesson. ”

Li Yuan heard Zhu Gaoxuan's words, his dark face was a little red, he naturally knew Mencius's original intention, just to praise Zhu Gaoxuan's sycophants,

I don't want to slap the horse's hooves.

"Okay, you go to Zhu Anlan and ask him to hand over the bricklayer and potter to you, and find a suitable place to build a kiln.

This is a new type of red brick and brick kiln renovation proposal that I have researched, and I have asked old craftsmen and old farmers to make it. ”

Saying that, Zhu Gaoxuan handed a few pieces of paper to Li Yuan, and when he and Zhuge Xuan wrote a recital to Zhu Di two days ago, he recalled a lot of some technologies in his previous life, and many of them were possible to be realized by the Ming Dynasty, and he drew them all.

"Your Highness, there is not enough wood in Lantian County, and if you want to burn firewood for the kiln, you can only go to Helan Mountain to cut it, which is very laborious and costly."

"You go to find Liu Erdan, I have already handed over the method to him to prepare."

"It turns out that His Highness is ready, so the lower official will go to complete His Highness's task."

Li Yuan heard that Zhu Gaoxuan had already made arrangements, so he didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

When Zhu Gaoxuan returned to the backyard to start the afternoon class, he could feel that Zhuge Xuan's eyes were a little more satisfied.

For the next period of time, Zhu Gaoxuan shrank in the Liangwang Mansion, learning all kinds of knowledge every day, occasionally dealing with the government affairs reported by Li Yuan and Zhu Anlan, and simply setting the direction for them to deal with by themselves.

……

It is close to the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the Lantian Plain is already lively.

The prisoners who were assigned to Lam Tin dredged ditches in the increasingly cold waters;

The immigrants and aborigines were half busy planting sweet potatoes and half collecting stones turned over from the ground;

Others began to dig coal to create honeycomb coal.

The craftsmen among the prisoners were divided into two groups, and all of them were busy building brick kilns, except for the construction of ten large ploughs every day.

The whole Lam Tin Plain is bustling with people, but it is orderly and quiet.

Baa Baa ...... Moo......

On this day, the earth-shattering cries of cattle and sheep broke the busy and orderly tranquility.

The cattle and sheep that cannot be seen are like white clouds and dark clouds, floating from the sky.

The immigrants who migrated were all people from the Central Plains, and they had never seen such a shocking scene, and everyone along the road was crawling to make way for cattle and sheep.

People watched from the side of the herd of cattle and sheep, and many people were amazed.

"How many cows and sheep are there? Tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands? ”

"Million...... At least a million! Can you see the margin? ”

"If you don't stand in front of these cattle and sheep with long eyes, you can't be trampled directly into meat puree?"

"Nope! There was no meat puree, and this large herd of cattle and sheep passed, and even the bones were gone. ”

If someone can look at it from a high place, they will find that it is a huge herd of cattle and sheep that stretches for more than ten miles, and it looks more than shocking.

Even if it is an army of tens of thousands of people, using cattle and sheep to rush into battle, they can level him!

"Your Highness, your sweet potato seedlings are really sold to the Northern Yuan, which is really right.

With these cattle and sheep, it will be no problem to eat until next summer's harvest. ”

Zhu Gaoxuan, who got the report, took Zhuge Xuan and other masters to come over to this shocking herd of cattle and sheep.

"At first, the students just wanted to exchange some food, and by the way, they weakened the strength of Beiyuan, but they didn't expect Shen Xuepeng to be so capable that he could buy so many cattle and sheep, which was really much unexpected for the students."

To be honest, Zhu Gaoxuan was also shocked, and the special effects blockbusters he watched in his previous life were not as shocked by the overwhelming cattle and sheep.

However, the resettlement of so many cattle and sheep is also a big problem.

"Come on, go find Shen Xuepeng and the person in charge of driving cattle and sheep."

"Yes!"

Looking at the seemingly endless herd of cattle and sheep, Zhou Zhengxiong and other generals became more and more solemn.

"Your Highness, there are too many cattle and sheep, not to mention that the rest is a feed problem, and the whole of Shaanxi can be poor."

"Not only that, once an enemy disturbs the cattle and sheep, causing the cattle and sheep to roar and impact the people, they will also suffer heavy casualties!"

"Even if it's not Xiaoying, just a cow or sheep crossing the border will cause huge damage!"

Several generals are constantly analyzing the harm and destructive power of this massive number of cattle and sheep.

"A few Lao Tzu are a little restless, this point when the student asked Shen Xuepeng to exchange for cattle and sheep, he was prepared."

Although Zhu Gaoxuan was also frightened by the overwhelming cattle and sheep in his heart, he still tried to maintain his apparent calmness.

The fork that I installed myself must be finished with tears.

He looked far to the southwest of the blue fields, where he could still see a little green in the autumn.

The terrain of Lantian is slightly higher in the southwest, and there is a small mountainous area, which has not been developed since Zhu Gaoxuan arrived, and even the previous fire in the Lantian Plain, he also set up a fire barrier.

In order to house the upcoming herd of cattle and sheep.

But looking at the cattle and sheep that couldn't see their heads at a glance, Zhu Gaoxuan also regretted it.

That mountain forest must not be able to accommodate so many cattle and sheep.

"Your Highness, fortunately, 180,000 cattle and 1 million sheep were brought back smoothly!"

Shen Xuepeng, who had a frosty face, rode a horse with three middle-aged men dressed as shopkeepers, with an excited face.

"Shhh...... 1.18 million, didn't you say up to 800,000 heads? Why is there 380,000 more? ”

Hearing this number, Zhu Gaoxuan was taken aback, especially the fact that there were 180,000 cows, which was greatly unexpected by him.

What is even more surprising is that the Shen family was able to bring so many cattle and sheep from the Northern Yuan Dynasty back to Daming.

Zhu Gaoxuan would like to call it a 'miracle'.

Even if you start driving cattle and sheep from the Hetao Plain, it is more than 800 miles away, not to mention that it is impossible for one Hetao Plain to have so many cattle and sheep.

"Hey...... Your Royal Highness, all the sweet potato seedlings grown in Lantian have been sold to the Northern Yuan, these are the cattle and sheep that were exchanged, and along the way, the villain also gave 170,000 cattle and sheep to various health centers and thousands of households as road money. ”

"Hmm...... It's just 170,000 cattle and sheep to buy the road, compared to only 1.18 million, which is simply too little, and I will give you a great credit. ”

"Your Highness."

Hearing that Zhu Gaoxuan had made a great contribution to himself, Shen Xuepeng was even happier than rushing back 1.18 million cattle and sheep.

However, without waiting for him to be happy for long, Zhu Gaoxuan asked again:

"There is no plague on the road of your cattle and sheep, it is a plague of cattle and sheep?"

"Your Highness, rest assured!

There is absolutely no plague in this group of cattle and sheep, as long as there are cattle and sheep sick on the road, we will directly slaughter and burn them, and we will not eat them!
