The dog leftover has a pretty good name, Hu Qianyong.

His father, Hu Benlu, fought in Liangzhou many years ago, was seriously injured, and his right leg was slashed three times.

After Hu Benlu was injured, he couldn't continue to eat soldiers' meals, so he was arranged by the imperial court to this Zhuangzi, so many years, life has not been good, but being able to live with his wife and son is a kind of luck compared to other miserable people.

Although he didn't read any books, he was quite backbone, and he always taught his son Qianyong that people are not poor, and they can't do such things as traitors, and there is no food at home, and they are gritting their teeth to live, and they rarely ask others, let alone steal.

Hu Benlu's wife has fallen ill in the past few days, but in fact, she is not sick, but she is hungry and fierce, so she will be like that.

Hu Qianyong is a good boy who is filial, although he is very timid, but for the sake of his mother, he actually had the courage to go to the owner's house to steal two bags of grain, and when he came back, he said that he was willing to accept any punishment from his father, but he had to cook for his mother first.

Hu Benlu was so sad that he was really reluctant to beat his son, scolded him for a while, and then cooked porridge for his wife to drink, and after a few bowls of thick porridge, his wife finally regained her vitality.

He silently thought in his heart that he would return it to the owner after waiting for the grain to be collected, and at this time he must not let people find out, he really can't afford to lose this person.

But I'm afraid of something.

The next morning, just as Hu Benlu was about to go out to collect firewood, several strong men came to his house.

Although there are more than 1,000 people in Zhuangzi, but most of them are old people, women and children, and there are not many men.

It's bad, isn't it that the dog leftover was found out when he stole food?

Now it's coming to the door?

The man who came was Fat Bear, and a few brothers.

Fat Xiong remembered the instructions Li Wuchang gave him in the morning, showed a smile, and said, "May I ask if this big brother is Brother Hu Benlu Hu?"

Hu Benlu saw that the attitude of the person who came was not bad, and replied: "Yes, how many are you?"

Fat Bear smiled: "Brother Hu is good, I am the entourage of the new owner, you can call me Fat Bear, this time I came here to give benefits to Brother Hu, our farmer will come over in a few days, and ask us to send some gifts to the villagers, which is considered to be a good acquaintance." ”

Then he said to his subordinates: "Take it." ”

Hu Benlu was a little puzzled, and saw a man carrying a sack from their car, which seemed to be food.

Fat Bear explained: "The owner of the village learned about the situation of the Zhuangzi before we came, and by the way, we sent some welfare, after we came, we decided to send twenty catties of grain per person first, Brother Hu should not be too little, because of the large population, there is not so much grain in the owner's house, just mean first, your family has three people, so send sixty catties, where do you see it? ”

Hu Benlu was stunned for a long time when he faced the fat bear with a smile on his face.

What's the situation?

And such a good thing?

However, he was a person who had been on the battlefield after all, and he had seen some of the world, so he came back to his senses after a moment, and said weakly: "The welfare of the new owner? ”

Fat Bear said: "Brother Hu, don't refuse, firstly, it is a little bit of the owner's meaning, and there is not much to do, and secondly, I want to ask Brother Hu to do something, and it is not in vain." ”

Hu Benlu couldn't figure out the situation, and muttered, "I don't know what is going on?"

The tone was somewhat guarded.

Fat Bear was already very clever, and he had learned from the shopkeeper Chen for so long, and he was the best at dealing with this kind of scene, explaining: "Brother Hu, don't be nervous, it's not a big deal, we heard that Brother Hu is very familiar with Zhuangzi, and most of the people on Zhuangzi know each other, so I thought that Brother Hu would take us to familiarize ourselves with Zhuangzi, and by the way, send food to other farmers, which was explained by the owner of the village, even if Brother Hu helped me, if the owner knew that I was not doing things well, he would punish me." ”

Only then did Hu Benlu let down his guard and arched his hand: "The owner of the village is really too polite...... I'll do it myself. ”

After mentioning the food, he said to the fat bear and the others: "Why don't you go to the house to drink tea first?"

At the same time, I wondered in my heart that this owner was also strange that he did not first convene the bankers to show his authority when he took office, but first sent his subordinates to send benefits.

Is he really a good person?

Let's take a look first, the children of big families are all proficient.

Fat Bear nodded and said, "Then it's troublesome Brother Hu." ”

Hu Benlu took advantage of the fact that everyone was drinking water, knocking on the side, wanting to ask the real purpose of Fat Bear and the others, and Fat Bear patiently explained Hu Benlu's questions without any ambiguity.

There was no conspiracy in the first place, so the fat bear replied very happily, but he just concealed that Li Wuchang had come to Zhuangzi.

Hu Benlu tried for a long time, and finally found that the fat bear had no special purpose, and he was very happy, so he put down the task of collecting firewood, and led the fat bear and others to go in and out of the east and west, and send benefits everywhere.

The mountain road is not easy to walk, the cart loaded with grain is pulled by two donkeys, there are two carts, both people and donkeys are extremely hard, but the fat bear and the others have no complaints, they decided to go down to work with Li Wuchang from the moment they were conscious.

Hu Benlu knew that the fat bear and others were from Chang'an City, they were quite extraordinary in dress and conversation, and they were very enthusiastic, not afraid of hardship, and their impression of the fat bear gradually improved, and he gradually opened his mouth to talk about the situation in Zhuangzi, and by the way, he said some gossip, and slowly became acquainted, and the title of the elder brother and the elder brother became up.

Fat Bear and the others listened very carefully.

"Brother Xiong, whose son is our owner, I heard that he is still a viscount, and he is very young?" Hu Benlu was very curious.

"Brother's news is really well-informed, our owner is the fourth son of the Chang'an City Janissary Command, a few days ago because of his great contributions, so he was named a viscount by His Majesty, he is indeed very young, less than twenty years old, but Brother Hu must not underestimate the owner, he is very capable. Fat Bear explained.

"Brother is talking about the Praetorian Guard Commander Li?" Hu Benlu had obviously heard of Li Lingwu's name.

Fat Bear smiled and nodded.

Hu Benlu relaxed a little, thinking that Li Lingwu's reputation was so good, his son should not be far behind.

"Commander Li and his old man know Feng Yijun's difficulties, so he sent the fourth prince to our Zhuangzi, first, to let the fourth prince have some experience, and secondly, to let the fourth prince do some practical things, to see if he can give everyone a hope, so that everyone can live a good life, this is still Commander Li specially greeted Neku. Fat Bear took the opportunity to promote Li Wuchang's idea.

"I see!" muttered Hu Benlu.

"Brother, is the house in front of you still far away? Brother, I want to take advantage of the fact that the sun is not getting enough to send a few more miles. "Fat Bear got down to business.

"Oh, it's not far, it's not far, the mountain road is really not easy to walk, and it's hard for a few of you, I'll catch the car." Hu Benlu came back to his senses and offered to ask for help.

Fat Bear and the others did not shirk, and everyone worked together to drive the donkey cart.

A morning passed, but more than a dozen were sent, and Hu Benlu came forward to dispel the doubts of those people, which also saved Fat Xiong and others a lot of tongues.

While resting, Fat Bear took the opportunity to learn many details of the Zhuangzi from the old farmer Hu Benlu, and gained a lot.

"Brother, did the owner send a few of you down, our Zhuangzi is very big, and the road is not easy to walk, or I will mobilize the villagers to tell each other, and everyone will take the initiative to go to the owner's house to receive food, so it is too hard for a few of you to go." Hu Benlu proposed.

The fat bear waved his hand and said: "The grain is second, the owner of the village has an explanation, it is best for each family to take a look at it, get to know it, and then understand the specific situation of the villagers." Moreover, we were not the only ones, there was also a group of people who went to another mountain, which was further away. ”

Li Wuchang explained things early in the morning.

The two teams that sent welfare and understood the situation, the fat bear led a team, and Zhai Changping led a team, this job was very hard, and it was estimated that it would take a lot of time to run a lap.

The first team to buy food and medicine, Jiang Minglun and Zhao Xun followed Liu Gonggong to Hedong County, the silver two are naturally not worried, although the price of grain has risen, but you can buy more coarse grain, the price is relatively cheap, just to satisfy hunger, just survive for a while.

The team that secretly observes is Li Wuchang alone.

"Brother, it should be a short time to follow our owner looking at your appearance, can you tell me what kind of person the owner is?" Hu Benlu asked the question he wanted to ask the most.

"Our owner, how to say it, very smart, very good to his own people, like obedient and thoughtful subordinates, rest assured, everyone is now their own people, you will see in the future...... However, he sometimes has a weird temper and does some strange things that ordinary people can't understand, but don't worry, he makes sense to do things. "Fat Bear summed it up roughly.

Hu Benlu nodded silently, and he probably had a score in his heart.

Just when everyone was in full swing, Li Wuchang found a ragged clothes to wear on his body, and brought some dry food, so he walked around, observing the terrain everywhere, thinking about making a plan.

"Grandma, a bear, can this land grow crops?" Li Wuchang came to the field, walked and stopped, and whenever he came to a place, he dug up the mud in the farmland with his hands.

It was found that many places were sandy, and fine sand accounted for a small half.

Nima, just like this, almost all the bean sprouts can be produced, no wonder the harvest is not good.

Moreover, although Feng Yijun has Luoshui directly, it does not pass through this Zhuangzi, and there are several small ditches around, and there is not much water in it, which is turbid.

Li Wuchang walked around a large piece of land, and then came to the west mountain, and found that the trees were not luxuriant, the thatch was overgrown, and the mountains were mostly boulder laterite, and the stones in some places were very weathered.

The same should be true on the mountains to the east.

To the north is Namsan Mountain, which is still some distance away.

Zhuangzi is so big, mountains occupy more than half.

Li Wuchang sat on a boulder, looking at the north, thinking that Zhao Xun had said that there was a huge swamp-like place in the north, and it would flood when it rained, thinking that he would wait and take a look.

That's not good news, either there's no water, and when it comes, it floods.

The sun is full, but there are many people working in the fields, busy weeding, or directly using buckets to carry water from small ditches to water the crops, which is very inefficient.

It's just watering, it's too hard, let's make a yarn.

Li Wuchang couldn't help but scold secretly.
