Ran Fang didn't have much interest in Chang Yuanliang at first, but after hearing Liu Bang say that this person knew Xin Yushu and Lian Liangcai, he had some impulse to get to know this person.
But he didn't expect that before he had anyone bring Chang Yuanliang over, Chang Yuanliang had already followed Xin Yushu to him.
Seeing this person in his mansion, Ran Fang was surprised for a moment.
Obviously, Chang Yuanliang also felt a little incredible when he saw himself.
After all, it was simply unbelievable that a dignified commander would appear in that kind of place and sit down and eat in such a friendly manner.
At the same time, he also thought of the person sitting next to Ran Fang, who was probably the legendary His Majesty.
He quickly came to his senses and saluted Ran Fang respectfully: "See the commander."
"I offended you a lot last time in Xiaoshang City. I hope the commander will forgive me."
Ran Fang didn't intend to mention this matter, and it wasn't a big deal, so naturally he wouldn't care about it.
But now that Chang Yuanliang has taken the initiative to talk about it, he has to take a stand.
"He who doesn't know is not guilty, and I am not a petty person."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."
This conversation made Xin Yushu stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Chang Yuanliang was such a strange person that he even knew Ran Fang.
Although I knew from the words that they met by chance, there were not many opportunities to make an impression on Ran Fang.
Seeing this, he also smiled and said: "It turns out that you and Chang Yuanliang know each other. It's really fate."
"Haha, that will make things much easier."
He lowered his head and whispered this to Chang Yuanliang, so he didn't see Chang Yuanliang's slightly annoyed eyes.
Ran Fang saw Chang Yuanliang's embarrassment, so he took the initiative and said, "Sit down and talk about something."
He had investigated the relationship between Chang Yuanliang and Xin Yushu before, and he was not surprised at all by the familiarity between them.
But at this moment, Chang Yuanliang felt a little nervous. He was so familiar with the people under the commander, but he didn't know the commander. Will telling this affect Xin Yushu's career?
This makes Ran Fang so shameless. Can Ran Fang still agree to what they do next?
The anxiety in his heart was clearly revealed in Ran Fang's eyes, but Xin Yushu beside him didn't feel there was any problem at all.
After the two sat down, he immediately opened his mouth to express their intention.
"Sir, Chang Yuanliang and I are from the same hometown. We are quite ambitious and humble."
"My lord has met him before, so he must already know his character very well."
He was talking so eloquently that Chang Yuanliang, who was sitting next to him, almost dropped his head to the ground.
"No, no," Chang Yuanliang waved his hands repeatedly, hoping that he would stop talking.
But Xin Yushu ignored his deep meaning and thought Chang Yuanliang was shy.
In this way, he praised even more vigorously.
"Sir, you see, he is such a person who is not good at words and a bit reserved."
"In the village of Baxiang, everyone has the best reputation for his demeanor. He never makes enemies with others and is very humble in his dealings with others."
"I have known him for a long time, and I have never met anyone who is nicer to talk to than him..."
His speech had no focus, and he just kept praising Chang Yuanliang. Ran Fang was almost impatient.
But look at Chang Yuanliang, his body was almost bent into a circle at this moment, his buttocks were on the principle chair, and finally he knelt directly on the ground.
Ran Fang couldn't bear it any longer. He pointed at Chang Yuanliang, smiled and said, "You'd better take a look at him first."
"The person is about to be buried in the ground. If you say a few more words, I'm afraid he will be dug out of the ground."
After hearing Ran Fang's words, Xin Yushu turned around and saw Chang Yuanliang kneeling there with his head lowered. He stood up with some confusion and looked at Ran Fang and Chang Yuanliang in confusion, not understanding what was happening. What.
"Brother Chang, what are you doing?"
"My lord, I'm not embarrassing you. Wouldn't it be possible for others to misunderstand my lord if you kneel like this?"
"Get up quickly."
But Chang Yuanliang seemed to be deliberately fighting him, kneeling on the ground with no intention of getting up.
While speaking, he turned back and smiled at Ran Fang, for fear that Ran Fang would be angry because of this.
Ran Fang knew the reason, and now he was even more interested in Chang Yuanliang.
"Okay, get up."
"Why are you two here today?"
What he meant was that he would just tell the story of what had just happened and not embarrass Chang Yuanliang because of what happened before.
Hearing this, Chang Yuanliang stood up with relief, but he never had the courage to sit on that chair again.
Xin Yushu, who was originally going to sit down, couldn't sit down when he saw him standing.
"Sir, the thing is like this. Brother Chang was very envious after knowing that I was in the breeding farm, and he also wanted to find a place for himself in the breeding farm."
"But I know that the breeding farm already has enough people and space, and it cannot accommodate more animals and people."
"So, I suggested to him that he might as well move the farm back to the village."
"The current breeding farms are mainly sheep and pigs. They are raised in the mountains and are very troublesome to manage. Chickens, ducks and geese are also raised near the water, which does not require too many people."
"But now the textile factory still needs wool and duck feathers, so my subordinates thought that if everyone in the village could raise them, they wouldn't have to worry about not having enough cotton clothes when they are tempted."
"What do you think, sir?"
Ran Fang thought this suggestion made sense. There were too many cotton-padded clothes and down jackets to make, and the ones he raised alone were simply not enough, so he often had to buy them outside, which cost a lot of money.
But if a village is turned into a breeding farm, the benefits will definitely be greater than if he did it himself.
However, after he handed over the farm matter to Xin Yushu, he never asked about it, but now he heard some questions that he couldn't understand.
"I can understand that these sheep are free-range. They can just eat grass."
"But you keep other animals free-range, why is that?"
"There are also pigs running in the mountains. What do they eat?"
When this question came up, Xin Yushu was stunned for a moment. After he followed Ran Fang and castrated the pigs, they did grow faster and there were no longer those problems.
So he thought Ran Fang knew how to breed, but this question made his judgment doubtful.
"They forage freely on wasteland or near water, eating grass, leaves, aquatic plants, and algae. There are many things to eat in the mountains."
After saying that, he felt something was wrong, so he added: "Do you think there is something wrong, sir?"
Only then did Ran Fang realize that he had been ignoring a problem, that is, in an era when people didn't have enough to eat, how could they get other things to feed the pigs?
But as far as he knew, due to the agricultural tools improved by Zheng Guo, food cultivation in nearby villages has become much better, and every household has a little surplus food.
Just like his house, there is always some food prepared for emergencies.
"The pigs can be fed some flour ground from corn, and the chickens, ducks and geese can also be fed some feed and insects. These are all nutrients for them to grow up."
"Since there is a river there, it is okay to raise some fish. When the time comes to lock up those chickens, ducks and geese, isn't this a new product?"
The two people didn't pay much attention to what they said later, but when Ran Fang said what they were going to eat, their jaws almost dropped to the ground in surprise.
"noodle?!"
"feed?!"
