The fire bed was set up in one day.
However, if you want to sleep, you have to wait for two more days.
If you don't wait until it's completely dry to go to bed, you're really going to have rheumatism.
Yun Chao asked Lin Youniang to light the stove fire, and asked the fire not to burn too brightly. If the fire was too strong and the heat would be uneven, the stove and the kang would easily crack.
Cook slowly over low heat, using the remaining heat to dry little by little.
This process takes about two days, but the kitchen should not be idle. It is roasted slowly over low heat. The temperature in the kitchen is not low, which is perfect for sprouting.
The number of broken vats increased, and so did the number of bean sprouts cultivated by Yunchao.
Half are soybean sprouts and half are mung bean sprouts. Yun Chao is ready to test the water and see if the fat shopkeeper of Lion House is interested in mung bean sprouts.
There wasn't much farm work in winter, so Yun Chao basically trained with his men.
Spear thrust.
Shooting with bows and crossbows.
The sword cuts through the shield.
Horse riding and archery…
There was only one horse, and it was almost taken care of by Yun Chao alone.
Horses are not machines, especially if they are ridden by a novice like Yun Chao. Not only Yun Chao will be tired, but the horse will be even more tired, as it cannot speak, otherwise he will have to be scolded!
Seeing Yun Chao riding a broken horse around the village all day long, Lai and his son were jealous.
Especially Lai Shouren and Lai Shouyi, they wanted to pull Yun Chao off the horse and put them on it themselves!
Which man doesn't love riding a horse, whether it's a war horse or a rouge horse, unless he's physically incapacitated, riding a horse is a man's obsession.
In his previous life, Yun Chao was a doctoral candidate at the Agricultural University and saw a lot of things with his tutor.
His tutor, who was known as the deputy dean, was very playful. He once applied for a project under the pretext of studying animal husbandry, cultivated a pasture, and purchased several good horses.
Later, once the two papers were published, the project was considered a success.
As for those good horses, Yun Chao didn't know where they were.
However, before they disappeared, Yun Chao rode a lot.
Therefore, Yun Chao didn't know anything about horseback riding. He also received guidance from a cavalry coach who was said to be a cavalry coach.
However, when encountering a real fierce horse, Yun Chao's half-baked experience in his previous life was no longer useful.
It can barely ride. If you want to shoot arrows on a horse, there are no doors, not even windows.
"Yun Er, when will you enter the city?" Lai Zhicheng stopped the horse's head and looked up at Yun Chao who was riding the horse.
This posture made Lai Zhicheng extremely awkward. Seeing that Yun Chao had no intention of dismounting, he wanted to stab him to death with a knife right now!
Yun Chao looked down at Lai Zhicheng from a high position: "Hey, I'm sorry, I have no plans to enter the city for the past two days."
Straight bitch!
Lai Zhicheng was so angry that his beard stood up: "Yun Er, if you don't come into the city, what will happen to my fish?"
He tried his best to exploit his subordinates and finally caught more than 300 kilograms of fish. Unexpectedly, Yun Er was not going to go to the city. Wouldn't this cost him his life?
Yun Chao didn't forget it.
Just back from the city that day, Lai Zhicheng made trouble with his fish. He said that Yun Chao had made a fortune, but he only gave his subordinates a few trivial benefits, and he tried his best to provoke others.
Moreover, Yun Chao also spoke sabotage when he was recruiting people, scaring away two weak-willed boys.
Yun Chao wants to teach Lai Zhicheng a lesson now. Don't think that you can dominate Wolong Village. If you want to make money, just put down your arrogance. If you dare to be gibberish again, your mother won't recognize you!
Yun Chao was determined to teach Lai Zhicheng a lesson, so no matter what he said, Yun Chao always had only one sentence. He had no plans to enter the city yet and would wait a few days.
In fact, Yun Chao had another reason not to go to the city. The stove and the kang had just dried out, and the bean sprouts had not grown well. It was not worth going to the city just to sell a few hundred kilograms of fish. .
Well, none of this matters, the main thing is that Yun Chao wants to avoid the limelight.
I went to the city twice and encountered robbers both times. So many people died. Who knows what the situation is like outside. It would be safer to wait a few more days.
If Yun Chao doesn't enter the city, Lai Zhicheng can't do anything to him.
Yun Chao's gang of boys, plus their families, have formed a small group with strong strength. Lai Zhicheng is really not easy to be strong.
In desperation, Lai Zhicheng and his son summed up, damn it, if that kid Yun Er doesn't go into the city, we can go alone!
The last time they went to the city, Lai and his son suffered a huge loss.
After the grandfathers came back, the more they thought about it, the more they felt aggrieved.
The first family of Wolong Village, who thought they were dignified, was actually robbed of all their fish by a group of common people. Not only was it embarrassing, but the key point was that they were cowards!
This time, they will take revenge for the last time, make a comeback and sell all the fish!
Well, the Lai family and his son have never thought about taking revenge on the fat shopkeeper of Lion House. Their so-called revenge is to sell the fish, preferably at a good price, so that the boy Yun Er knows about it. , without him Yun Er, they would still make money!
…
Early the next morning.
Without even eating anything, Lai and his son drove the bullock cart on the road.
When they entered the city, several soldiers recognized them at a glance.
Haha, isn’t this a fat sheep that was once slaughtered?
Last time, Lai Zhicheng showed his reputation as a village official and pretended to be a scribe, which helped him pay a lot less city tax.
This time, the few soldiers would not listen to his deceptions. If they really had a close relationship with the scribes of the Yamen, they would have been troubled by soldiers like them.
After a while, the soldiers gave Lai Zhicheng two taels of silver, just because he was Muramasa.
Mr. Lai and his son were extremely depressed. They paid out twenty taels of silver before even selling a single fish. They were really unwilling to accept it!
Yun Er!
They all hate Yun Er so much!
If it weren't for the little beasts who refused to go to the city to sell fish, how could they be so cowardly!
Several soldiers ruffians made Lai and his son angry. They didn't resent the soldiers ruffians, but they hated Yun Chao. They didn't know where the logic came from.
Lai Zhicheng was cautious and did not dare to go to Cross Street again.
There is not only the Lion Tower, but also the unscrupulous people who robbed their fresh fish last time.
Driving the bullock cart, Mr. Lai and his son went to Yaqian Street. It was close to the Yamen, so the unruly people did not dare to use force.
Lai Zhiguo is really smart, and there are really no unscrupulous people coming to grab the fish.
The unruly people didn't come, but the tax collectors came one after another.
In less than two hours, three waves of tax collectors came, each charging him one tael of silver in tax!
Lai Zhicheng talked hard and explained repeatedly with the Muramasa badge every time, and then he got the preferential treatment of halving the tax, and only charged five yuan for each wave of servants.
A few country people dare to sell fish on Yaqian Street. What is the difference between a sheep entering a tiger's mouth? There is no reason not to eat the fat meat that is brought to your mouth.
Lai Zhicheng's status as a village masa is nothing compared to those government servants who eat people without spitting out their bones.
How many people dare to take a stroll in an area where police officers are active?
In addition, ordinary people don't know how to eat fish, so the Lai family spent most of the day selling it, and they didn't sell even a few fish out of hundreds of kilograms.
Seeing that they would have to travel through the night if they didn't go back, Lai and his son had no choice but to drive the ox cart back with their heads down.
After walking for a while, Lai Zhicheng suddenly reminded his two sons: "There are jungles ahead, be careful of thieves!"
