God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

"I do not!"

"Who said selling pigs was successful? It's not enough. You can continue to sell pigs. When I think you can be my disciple, it's not too late for you to come and learn from me." Du He waved his hand helplessly and said.

"Yes, teacher, don't worry, the students will definitely not let you down."

Fang Yiai is full of joy.

Can't do anything else, sell pigs, who is afraid of whom?

……

In order to get into Du He's family as soon as possible, Fang Yiai acted like he was crazy. In just half a month, he expanded his pig selling brigade from 30 people to more than 100 people. These people are all lunatics. Sell ​​it, there's nothing you can do about it.

Every day, dozens of elongated horse farms pull the piglets out of Hu County.

In Hu County, more and more people are forced to start raising pigs.

In a short period of time, it has little effect.

But after a long time, the problem came: lack of food.

In this era, productivity is low, and there are no such things as future generations of chemical fertilizers. The output of food is very low. A family of five needs at least three laborers to barely eat.

But now, many people not only have to eat, but also feed pigs.

Although pigs eat wild vegetables most of the time, according to the standards of pig farms, they must be fed with grain so that pigs can grow fast and fat.

The common people were honest. They heard that the pig could make money, so they fed all the grain they had stored for half a year to the pig. When they realized it, the family had only a few months of grain stored.

Now that the autumn harvest has just passed, every household of the common people is starting to lack food.

If things go on like this, after the beginning of spring, I am afraid that many people will starve to death.

Chaos, beginning to emerge.

at dusk.

Ma Zhou returned to the county office in a carriage exhausted.

He didn't stop any longer, but hurriedly went to look for Du He.

According to Du He's arrangement, in the past few days, he went to various places in Hu County to observe the people's conditions, mainly to see how the pig raising situation was.

Now it seems that mobilizing the people to raise pigs may cause chaos.

When he walked into the yard, he found Du He and Li Ke were eating hot pot in the yard. The smell of meat came to his nostrils. Ma Zhou sniffed and decided in his heart that this was a small yellow ox.

"Old Ma, you have worked hard these few days. Is there any problem raising pigs?" Du He saw Ma Zhou and hurriedly called him over.

After Ma Zhou sat down, he was not even interested in picking up chopsticks.

He said worriedly: "Your Majesty, if you let the people raise pigs, I'm afraid there will be big trouble... I have been to many places in Hu County recently, and found that the people have already started to oppose raising pigs. Empty the food in their homes, now, many people have quietly killed the piglets, and some people even got angry with the piglets, threw it away, and vowed not to raise pigs again!"

Li Ke slammed his chopsticks on the table, stood up abruptly, and asked, "Old Ma, who dares to be so bold as to kill a pig? It's so wicked. You tell me, I will take care of you." The City University Team went to argue with him."

Ma Zhou: "...Your Highness, as the saying goes, it is better to be sparse than to be blocked. Now the people of Hu County are just getting better. If they are forced to continue raising pigs, I am afraid that in the end people will have nothing to eat, and neither will pigs. Big mess."

Du He ate two pieces of beef, and said lightly: "I have expected this matter a long time ago."

"Did the Duke expect it in advance?"

"That's right, in fact, it hasn't been a day or two since Hu County has been short of food. Since the county arrived in Hu County and the implementation of the three major policies, a large number of people began to enter Anhu Avenue and other places, and the number of people farming has dropped significantly. The supply of food is naturally insufficient...Nowadays, there are so many pigs wanting to eat food, so it is natural that there is not enough food..." Du He analyzed.

Ma Zhou hurriedly asked, "Did the Duke ever think of a solution?"

"There is a way, but I don't know if it is feasible. You have worked hard, old horse. Come and eat more beef. This cow was found by His Highness on the way back to the county. The cow just jumped off a cliff and died. The meat is delicious. It is not an ordinary suicide." After eating, take a good rest, and you will follow me out of the city tomorrow morning to find a solution!" Du He hastily picked up a few chopsticks of beef for Ma Zhou.

Li Ke hurried over: "Teacher, I'm going too."

"Go, go, go together." Du He said with a smile.

Saying that, he began to feast on it.

Ma Zhou really didn't enjoy the meal. He kept thinking about how Du He would solve this big problem, but he had no idea.

……

Chapter 827

The next morning.

Du He took Ma Zhou and Li Ke out of the city.

Ma Zhou asked curiously, "May I ask the Duke, where are we going?"

Du He said: "Go to visit an expert outside the city, maybe you can find a solution to the problem of the people's food shortage in raising pigs."

"Oh? There is such an expert in Hu County? Why have I never heard of it? Is there an expert in Hu County who is more powerful than Chen Tian?" Ma Zhou was surprised.

"Of course there are. As the saying goes, the big hermit hides in the world, and the little hermit hides in the wild. Although our county is not big, it is also a crouching tiger, hidden dragon. Don't underestimate it. Look at that old man working in the field, he looks sloppy. Untidy, maybe he is a famous general in the previous dynasty. Ma, we are human beings, we must have a humble heart, and we must not be arrogant, but we don’t know, the green house outside the mountain..."

Ma Zhou hastily corrected him, "Mr. Jun, it's the building outside the building."

"Ah, yes," Du He finally came to his senses, "It's the green hills outside the mountains, the buildings outside the buildings, the countryside, the forests, there are so many talented people, and they all have things we can learn from."

Ma Zhou said in admiration: "Your Majesty, Ma has been taught."

He was convinced.

Ma Zhou turned his head, but saw Li Ke, King of Shu, smiling foolishly all the time.

He immediately became unhappy: "Your Highness, do you think the Duke is wrong?"

Li Ke, king of Shu, was overjoyed, so he leaned into Ma Zhou's ear and whispered, "Lao Ma, you can believe everything the teacher says, but you can't believe it at all when you visit an expert. Back then, when the king and the teacher went to Chang'an , the teacher also said that he was paying a visit to a terrific expert, guess who is the last one? It is Shangguan Wuyou, that scumbag, hahaha..."

Ma Zhou: "..."

Soon, a group of people entered the pig farm.

Du He said hello to Wei Shuyu, and led them straight to the back mountain.

From a distance, a foul stench could be smelled.

The huge lake of pig feces and pig urine formed at the foot of the mountain is sparkling in the morning light and is very spectacular.

Come to the lake.

I saw a scruffy old man with disheveled hair, carrying two buckets to fill the lake with pig manure. pick away.
