"A few generals came to see me. Do you have any orders?"
Chen Zhou asked.
Cao Chun said: "It's like this. You and Zixiu recommended that we take over the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry. Zixiu talked to the eldest brother and the eldest brother agreed. We are here to express our gratitude."
It turned out to be because of this incident.
Chen Zhou glanced at Cao Ang and said with a smile: "You three don't have to do this. I just said it casually based on your abilities. I didn't expect that the lord agreed."
"You should thank me!"
Cao Chun and the others knew that Chen Zhou's words around Cao Cao were worth ten words spoken by others, but he asked again: "What are you doing here?"
He looked into the pigsty again doubtfully.
That bastard Xia Houmao's wife was robbed, but there was no need to be so angry.
"Son and uncle, he insulted us!"
Xiahou Ba said angrily: "Our father asked us to teach us, but he didn't teach us anything else. He asked me and Zilin to raise pigs, and he also talked about postpartum care for sows. Isn't it funny to ask us to take care of a pig?"
Hearing this, Cao Chun also felt that it was a bit too much.
It sounds like an insult.
"This... you're sure Watari, you didn't make any mistake, right?"
Cao Chun thought for a while and asked.
If Chen Zhou wanted to take revenge on his love rival, it would be wrong to do so.
Chen Zhou affirmed: "I did not humiliate them, and I have no intention of revenge. Raising pigs can change the men and strengthen the army. I am not doing this randomly."
"How many pigs can strengthen the army?"
Xia Houmao sneered.
Chen Zhou said: "Of course a few pigs can't strengthen the army, but a large number of pigs can, that's all! If you don't agree, you should go back! I will have people send back the tuition fees your father sent. We don't agree with each other. There’s no need to force it.”
"You'd better really come back."
Xia Houmao snorted coldly and said, "Zhong Quan, let's go!"
He didn't want to stay here for a moment.
"stop!"
Since Chen Zhou believed that raising pigs was not a humiliation, Cao Chun believed that it was definitely not the case, and said sternly: "Should I let you go? I have no respect for my elders. Please stay with me. I will let you raise pigs until the end. You must keep them to the end."
Xiahou Mao said anxiously: "Uncle, it was he who said we can leave."
Chen Zhou said: "General Zihe, take them back, and you..."
He looked at Cao Tai and others, and said: "Whoever wants to leave can leave now. I will refund all the tuition fees. Next, I will take you to forge."
Xia Houheng and Xia Houchong will definitely protect their younger brother.
Hearing or forging, this is not a craftsman's job, let yourself do it?
It must be super hard.
They walked out first, saying they were leaving and unwilling to stay.
"what about you?"
Cao Ang looked at Cao Tai and Cao Fu.
He didn't want it to be like this on the first day, but it was normal for them to object.
Cao Fu hesitated and said, "I want to stay and give it a try."
Cao Tai echoed: "I'll stay too."
They didn't have much grievances with Chen Zhou. They knew that Chen Zhou would not cheat them, let alone take revenge. Maybe they could really make merit here.
"Zihe General, take them back."
Chen Zhou was not polite and said, "Follow me."
Xia Houchong and the others left unhappy.
Cao Chun didn't want to see such a commotion, so he had no choice but to take them away.
To forge this kind of thing, you can actually find a craftsman to do it.
But that is just ordinary forging. If you want to achieve mass production and forge steel materials like fire guns, you must conduct systematic and in-depth research. You need some literate people to accept the theoretical knowledge brought by Chen Zhou and record forging data.
Let those scholars come, they will definitely not be happy.
Chen Zhou was too lazy to look for scholars, so he couldn't bear the hardship.
Cao Fu and the others are just right. They are still members of the Cao family and will never betray their forging technology or give it to the enemy.
As children of the Cao family, they must be well-educated and literate, and their level of education may not be very high, but they just need to be literate and receptive to new knowledge.
Chen Zhou was not messing around, he really wanted to teach them how to forge.
They listened to the class for a while and found it interesting. They took notes while listening.
A morning passed like this.
Chen Zhouhui has explained almost everything. If there are still some things that they don’t understand, I will explain them to them tomorrow, and then focus on those little piglets.
Since Xia Houmao and Xia Houba left, Cao Ang found two other people to come back and be responsible for raising pigs for Chen Zhou.
Chen Zhou taught them everything he knew.
Raising pigs is actually very simple, but you need to pay attention to hygiene issues and prevent diseases. Everything else is fine. Chen Zhou is also planning to move the pig farm to other places.
Chen Zhou stayed here all day today and did nothing else.
——
After Cao Chun took Xia Houheng and others back, he then found Xia Houdun and Xia Houyuan.
Chen Zhou also asked Cao Ang to arrange for all the tuition fees to be sent back to them, no less.
"Asshole!"
After hearing what happened today, Xiahou Dun said angrily: "Guizi, you will do whatever Du Zhi asks you to do, and you still dare to object? Did I ask you to object?"
Xia Houchong couldn't help but said: "Father, sir, you are insulting Zilin."
"Is it an insult? Even if it is, you have to accept it."
Xiahou Dun snorted coldly: "Sir, you know everything. You can predict what will happen. If you tell me what will happen, it will definitely be there. You have never failed. Even if you are asked to eat shit, there is a reason for it. You must eat it, no..."
He shouted: "Come here, bring the rope and hold them down. I will hang these two traitors and beat them!"
The Xia Houchong brothers had no idea that their father would be so angry over this matter.
I didn't know what to do for a while.
Xia Houyuan slapped the desk next to him hard, breaking the tabletop, and shouted: "Come here, bring two more ropes. If I don't hang him up and beat him, you won't know what's wrong."
"Father, no!"
Xia Houheng explained: "That Chen Duzhi is really not a human being, he is very hateful!"
Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun don't care about this.
"Okay, you guys, just calm down for a while!"
Cao Chun stopped him and said, "You'd better stop fighting now. We'll talk to Watanabe later and maybe we can recover."
"Zihe is right."
Xiahou Dun kicked Xiahou Chong and shouted: "There are two thorn sticks on your back. Come with me and ask for forgiveness. Let's go!"
They left quickly.
——
Chen Zhou came back from outside. As soon as he arrived home, he got news from his servants, saying that it was Xiahou Dun and the others. He waited at home for a long time, and when he walked in, he saw that everyone was there.
Xia Houchong and the four of them knelt aside with a thorn in their backs to apologize.
"What are you going to do?"
Chen Zhou asked.
"Watari is back?"
Xia Houyuan shouted: "You two traitors, why don't you apologize to me and admit your mistake?"
Chen Zhou stopped him and said, "You don't have to do this. You are right. There is no need to admit your mistake. Get up!"
Chen Zhou was not surprised that they were able to come to his door, but he had already decided not to take them in again, even if they were beaten to death.
