Chapter 205: Westbound

Ayi's tribe was one of the first herders to settle outside Huma Pass.

At the earliest, the tribes on the grassland thought that this tribe had been deceived by the Northwest Army, and sooner or later they would be wiped out.

But with the passage of time, this tribe was not only not cleared, but also better and better, from the very beginning of the tribe many people were not clothed, became the same as the Central Plains people, wearing cloth clothes, eating rice steamed buns.

Even when they want to graze, there will be a special Northwest Army soldiers to open up a route for them, select pastures with abundant water and grass for grazing, and when the grazing is over, there will be soldiers from the Northwest Army to accompany the herdsmen back to the station.

There is no need to worry about the tribe being looted, no worries about grazing pastures, and no worries about someone daring to harass you.

Grazing was undisturbed, and they could eat enough, and even with the Northwest Army, they also opened a school in Humaguan, and invited many teachers to come and teach these children to read and write.

This is definitely a fairy-like day for herdsmen.

Seeing such a scene, many tribes who refused the invitation of the tribal patriarch at the beginning also began to regret it, and some people were ready to move, and after communicating with the tribal patriarch, after Meng Feihang's approval, many herdsmen were willing to move out of the grassland to live outside Huma Pass.

As more and more people moved over, it gradually became a county town, with a population of more than 50,000 herders.

From the beginning when I was worried that your family would rob my cattle and sheep, to the big guys, they put the sheep together in captivity, and then followed the Northwest Army to graze together.

Later, Meng Feihang also built a stronghold next to a huge spring less than ten miles from Huma Pass, where the garrison was also open to the outside world.

At first, the herdsmen didn't know what it was about, but as the Yuedu Dart Bureau opened various shops here, bringing special products from all over the world to sell and replace them, and also buying ornaments and leather goods from the grassland herdsmen, it also evolved into a desert market.

Gradually, the place became more and more lively, and the herders finally began to believe that the Northwest Army was not targeting the nomads on the steppe, but really began to treat them as their own kind.

In fact, the herdsmen on the grassland are very miserable, they have no nationality, the vassal states do not accept them, and the Gumo country also does not accept them, they can only live on the grassland and the desert, no one cares if they freeze to death, no one cares about starvation, they can only rely on their own ability to eat.

They actually want a country, they want someone to take care of them, and they want someone to help them when they are hungry and cold.

Now, this person seems to have appeared, and he is also the Northwest Army they once hated the most.

The steppe nomads also gradually accepted the existence of the Northwest Army, and more and more people were willing to settle in the herdsmen's gathering places outside Huma Pass.

Because they are safe there, they can eat enough, and they don't have to worry about someone robbing their cattle and sheep finances, because when they get here, everyone has to obey the unified control of the Northwest Army.

But there are also many herdsmen who are unwilling to hand over their cattle and sheep for unified control, after all, whose cattle and sheep are owned by those on the grassland, others have no right to interfere, but when they get here, they can't, when to graze, where to graze, when to return, all have to be controlled by the Northwest Army, if they secretly go out to graze, robbed or killed, the Northwest Army can not send troops to follow in real time.

Later, Meng Feihang also thought of a way, he customized a batch of special pattern soldering irons in the ordnance camp, and pressed these soldering irons on the bodies of cattle and sheep after they were burned red, and the cattle and sheep would leave a mark that could never be lowered, and each team had a mark of its own, so that there was no need to worry about their sheep running into other people's flocks.

When Chu Yujia came to Shuiyun County, there was a lively scene outside Huma Pass.

When Zhao Kuan agreed to bring his whole family to the frontier, Chu Yujia had already begun to prepare for the mansion.

He doesn't want an official position, nor a title, no matter when King Ye Zhao Kuan or the first king Zhao Yan wants to reward him, he only needs money and goods, and every time it is a lion who opens his mouth.

Zhao Kuan and Zhao Yan are also used to him, and they will basically give it when they open their mouths.

So Chu Yujia is now a golden pixiu in the officialdom of Ye State, when preparing the mansion, Chu Yujia almost reproduced the mansion of the capital city one by one, and because the real estate of Tongquan Mansion is cheaper and the labor is cheaper, according to the original mansion has been expanded a lot.

In addition to the four courtyards in the east, west, north and south, they also built their own independent courtyards for Chi'er and Yao'er, and these two small ones don't have to be crowded in the same courtyard with their parents.

The geographical location of the Hou Mansion is unique, standing on the roof of the main courtyard, you can see the viewing garden of Tongquan Mansion, and you can also see the eye of the earth that does not dry up in winter and summer all year round.

This time, Chu Yujia's preparation was not sufficient, so when Gong Limo came, his face was only full of surprise, and he was not the slightest dissatisfied.

This is what Chu Yujia wants, after all, he can't make his wife angry every time, and sometimes he still has to give his wife some satisfactory explanations.

After entering the Hou Mansion, Yao'er happily pulled Kang'er into her courtyard, looking east and west, her eyes were almost exhausted.

The green plants in the Hou Mansion are luxuriant, as if entering the paradise, especially the main courtyard is full of peach trees, in spring, the peach blossoms bloom all over the garden, and the scenery is beautiful.

Looking at the peach trees in the garden, Gong Limo raised his eyebrows and glanced back at Chu Yujia.

Chu Yujia smiled slightly and said, "I know you like it, so let the people below plant peach trees all over the yard, and maybe you can eat two sweet peaches in the autumn." ”

Gong Limo smiled lightly, turned around and raised his hand to gently stroke the branches of the peach tree.

Chu Yujia stepped forward, wrapped his arms around Gong Limo's waist from behind, and said quietly: "Are you still satisfied with our new home?"

"This time, even if you know each other, you have finally done something that makes me happy. ”

"Don't worry, I won't do anything that bothers you again. ”

Chu Yujia closed his eyes and sniffed the unique fragrance on Gong Limo's body, and said: "I heard that that kid from Feihang has made a market in the desert that is very lively, wait for two days to recuperate, let's go over and take a look, by the way, you can also see if there are any favorite gadgets that should be bought back and decorate the home." ”

"Okay. ”

Gong Limo raised his eyebrows, broke free from Chu Yujia's arms, raised his eyebrows, and said playfully with his eyes: "By the way, let's also go and see the little benefactor who saved your life in the first place......"

Little benefactor......

These three words she has to bite very hard.

Obviously, there is a side meaning.

In an instant, Chu Yujia's forehead was crawling with black lines.

What the hell is that bastard out of that......
