Lin Zhong said with red eyes, "Yes, Master."
When Li Yunze saw him calling for master again, he could only shake his head helplessly and told him about the appearance of various fruit trees nearby.
"Uncle Lin, remember what I told you, and dig them back when you see them. These fruits are so sweet.
Last time Tongtong and I went down the mountain, those people from the Western Regions brought a lot of fruits to our Yunchao Kingdom to sell. It was the buyers I helped them find in Qingzhou City and Dongyang County. "
He said this to find an excuse for selling those things last time.
Uncle Lin's men are handling this matter, and he may have gotten the news.
Even if he hasn't heard about it yet, it will reach his ears sooner or later. It's better to say that people from the Western Regions brought it over and sold it.
Anyway, I told them last time that he saved the people from the Western Regions, and if he sells space items in the future, he will say that he is the seller that the Western Regions people asked him to help find.
Ye Zhong kept all the fruit trees he mentioned in mind, planning to pay more attention to them in the future and dig them up when he saw them. Or mark it and collect it when the results come out.
As the saying goes, there is strength in numbers. More than 20 of them cleaned up the weeds and trees on hundreds of acres of land for more than ten days.
When plowing the fields, Ye Yutong fed the cows and horses some space well water and asked them all to work in the fields.
Uncle Lin and the people he brought had their mouths twitching. It was the first time they saw a horse plowing the fields. This little girl was really thoughtful.
There were only two iron plows in total, which they bought in Qingzhou City last time.
There are two in the space, but they are modern and not at all the same as the farm tools of this dynasty, so I dare not take them out.
This time she went down the mountain to ask the iron shop to help drive some modern iron plows. It is easy and efficient to use. Much better than this old-fashioned one.
When she first got the space, she also bought a small agricultural machine that burned electricity or oil.
But there wasn't much diesel in her space, so it could be recharged, but the electric one wasn't very easy to use, so it would be easier to plow the fields with oxen.
Two men led oxen to plow the land in a flat area, and several men dug with hoes.
Although there were only two iron plows, the oxen and horses plowed very quickly, taking turns without stopping.
Li Mingze, Ye Yutong, and Ye Mingxuan went out and planted some sweet potatoes everywhere.
After a while, I will bring someone over to cut the sweet potato seedlings, and then they will be said to be wild.
Anyway, their sweet potatoes and potatoes are said to be found in the mountains, so it would not be surprising to find them again.
Once the land is cleared, we will be ready to plant potatoes and various vegetables.
Potatoes are planted a month earlier than sweet potatoes in the spring, and now is the season.
Ye Yutong planted a few chayote by the pool and in the valley.
This vegetable has a very high yield, and one plant can produce hundreds of kilograms of fruit.
Last year, she gave Butler Lin ten seeds and asked them to plant them there too.
Li Yunze and Ye Mingxuan figured out the brick-making process and experimented for several days before they succeeded.
Looking at the piles of red bricks, everyone cheered excitedly.
Li Yunze and Ye Yutong were discussing whether to build a fence.
Ye Yutong said: “If hundreds of acres of land are completely enclosed, the cost will be too high.
Otherwise, just build a big yard and build a higher fence, and the people you bring back will live in the yard.
As for the crops in the fields, how much can those animals destroy? At worst, they will kill each other, just in time to eat meat. "
She was thinking like this. There should be a lot of people living here by then. Could it be that so many people couldn't defeat the beasts that came to steal food?
Li Yunze responded readily: "Okay, as you said, it doesn't matter if we don't encircle it. We can expand the land in the future. Uncle Lin said that the soil quality around here is good and is very suitable for growing crops."
His idea is more simple and crude. No matter how dangerous it is here, it is better than at the foot of the mountain, right?
If the people brought here can't even overcome this problem, then what's the use of them?
During dinner in the evening, Li Yunze brought over a jar of wine, which weighed about five or six kilograms.
"Uncle Lin, this wine was made by me and Tongtong. Try it and bring some to Grandpa Lin when you leave."
The whole hall poured half a bowl for the men.
Lin Zhong looked at the wine that was like clear water, picked it up and smelled it, and a strong aroma of wine came to his nostrils.
"Ping An, what is this wine made from and why is it so clear?"
"Uncle Lin, this is made from sorghum. This wine has a strong stamina, so don't drink too much."
Lin Zhong couldn't wait to take a sip. The sip was a bit big, and his throat felt like a knife cutting him, and his stomach was burning, "What a strong drink!"
Ye Mingxuan hurriedly gave him a large piece of meat and put it in a bowl, "Uncle Lin, hurry up and order some food."
Lin Zhong laughed loudly and said afterward: "It's okay, this wine is so enjoyable."
The wine in ancient times was only about ten degrees, while the liquor made by Ye Yutong was almost thirty degrees.
These people are used to drinking low-alcohol wine, so they must be a little uncomfortable drinking such high-alcohol wine. But once wine lovers get used to it, they will definitely fall in love with it.
Because there was good wine tonight, everyone had a great time eating. They ate lively for half an hour before putting down their bowls and chopsticks.
After everyone went back to rest, Li Yunze and Lin Zhong stood on the martial arts field talking.
"Uncle Lin, I am planning to go down the mountain in the next two days, so I will trouble you here."
It's almost April now, and their trip will take at least several months. They can't delay it any longer and must leave as soon as possible.
Lin Zhonggong raised his hand and said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely clean up this place before going back."
"When you leave, leave two good hands here and let them watch the children in the valley to practice."
"I will take four or five people back, and let the rest of them stay here to help with the work. They will teach these children how to ride horses, archery, and practice martial arts. When the master comes back, let's see if we should let them stay or go back?"
Li Yunze nodded, "It's okay. There is so much food grown over the water pool that Uncle Yongchang and the others can't take care of it. And there are so many wild animals here that the martial arts of Mantang and the others are not good enough."
"Master, these children are very smart, hard-working and not afraid of hardship, but the time for practicing martial arts is too short. If they practice hard for a few years like now, they will definitely be able to take the lead in the future."
Lin Zhong knew that these children were the right-hand men trained by their master. During the time when the master is away, he must have people keep an eye on them and not relax.
Li Yunze looked into the dark distance and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Lin, tell your uncle that in three years at most, I will start attacking the capital to make him endure it any longer."
Lin Zhong's eyes were red with excitement, and he said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Yes, Prince."
The night before they left, the whole family entered the space.
Ye Yutong was talking to Li Wenxiu about the planting and management of various vegetables.
"Mom, the gods said that the climate outside is different from here, and the planting time of these vegetables is also different. Which ones should be planted when? I have written them all on this piece of paper. You can just follow the time on it."
Li Wenxiu took her hand and said, "Mom, I've made a note of it, Tongtong, you two must be careful when you go out this time! I heard from your Uncle Lin that this year will be even more uneven."
"Mom, we know, don't worry, if we are really in danger, we will hide here with the gods." Ye Yutong comforted her with a smile.
