Drive a RV and go farming in ancient times.

Chapter 290: Cultivating Manpower 2 update

After eating, several people went to Xu Huaiyi's dormitory. When they saw the pile of down clothes and quilts piled high on the bed, they all stepped forward and selected suitable sizes to try on.

You won’t know until you try it, but you’ll be pleasantly surprised once you try it.

It is thinner than fur and warmer than silk. It is so comfortable to wear on the body that everyone is reluctant to take it off. Zhao Sanyou is the happiest, and he has the most. It took him two hugs to get all the clothes and quilts back to him. Go to the dormitory.

After the others left, Li Yunting said, "Qiao Huaijin is in a bad mood today. He seems to have something on his mind. I don't know if it has something to do with the Qiao family or the fourth prince."

Xu Huaiyi's eyes flashed, "It might be something about Qingzhou."

Li Yunting looked over, "Victims of Qingzhou?"

Xu Huaiyi nodded, "I heard from Brother Wang that some people from Qingzhou came to the new village recently affected by the disaster, but the number is not large. You know the meaning behind this. Can he not worry about his biological father?"

The few survivors of the disaster meant that the disaster relief measures were ineffective. Even if they died on the road, the responsibility would be passed on to the prefect of Qingzhou.

Li Yunting thought thoughtfully, "Is it because there is a lot of trouble in Qingzhou?"

Xu Huaiyi said vaguely, "Who knows? Anyway, there is a big difference in the number of victims who can reach the capital. How can all those people die?"

Li Yunting frowned, "Did someone take him to the black coal mine?"

This kind of thing is not uncommon nowadays. Many kidnappers coax people into working as slaves in black kilns. They try to escape until they die of exhaustion in the kiln, and no one in their family knows about it.

Xu Huaiyi thought to himself that this might be the case, but there was another possibility that was even more alarming, which was private soldiers. Only the imperial court was qualified to recruit soldiers. In addition, regardless of whether they were dignitaries or royal children, they could only hire more soldiers. Even if there are guards in the nursing home, there is also a certain number. Once passed, there will be suspicion of rebellion. It is very difficult to recruit secretly among the people. A large population loss will inevitably attract attention, but in the event of natural disasters, recruiting Refugees have become the best way to recruit people, and it is not easy to reveal their secrets.

Sooner or later, the fight for the heir in the palace will become fierce. If someone secretly plots rebellion, the capital will be in chaos. If the capital is in chaos, they will not get any good out of it.

I just don’t know if it is.

If so, who would it be?

These words were too sensitive. Even though he knew that Li Yunting was tight-lipped, he didn't say anything. He said a few perfunctory words and then asked, "Do you know what reward we will get this time?"

Speaking of this, Li Yunting gave a rare chuckle, "There are rumors that we will get a bronze medal, but if we don't get it in one day, it won't count."

Xu Huaiyi said tangledly, "But I have a bronze medal."

"Don't worry, your master will definitely choose another one you like."

"Hehe, I hope the master can be so considerate."

Hearing this, Li Yunting smiled again, "The disaster relief has come to an end. What plans or arrangements do you have next?"

Xu Huaiyi said casually, "I want to learn from my master, improve my skills as soon as possible, do business with Su Zhe, save more money for me, and take care of my family. There is nothing else, right?"

Li Yunting raised his eyebrows and asked, "Don't you want to train more people?"

Xu Huaiyi said "Huh?"

Li Yunting said, "I heard that you bought a lot of people..."

Xu Huaiyi said calmly, "I bought some people, but most of them were women and children, and they put them to work on the farm. I also bought some young men, and planned to teach them some skills, and keep them as housekeepers in the future." It’s for hospital use, the business is booming, and no one in the family is really worried.”

Li Yunting nodded, "You are right. You can also teach young children how to practice martial arts. If you don't need it now, you will be able to help them in the future."

"Have you trained your staff like this?"

"Well, I also raised a lot..."

Xu Huaiyi was surprised by his frankness and blinked, "Is it your own intention, or is it the Dingyuan Marquis's request for the descendants?"

Li Yunting's eyes dimmed slightly and he said calmly, "It was my own plan. The Dingyuan Marquis Mansion has always refused to let my mother in, nor allow me to enter the family tree. I just took the surname Li, and I am not the Marquis of Dingyuan at all." People from the Dingyuan Mansion, but those from the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion are wary of me and plot against me from time to time. If I hadn’t been protected by my master and cautious myself, I don’t know how many times I would have died.”

"So, you secretly raised someone?"

"Yes, this can be regarded as a guarantee. If there is no one to protect you, you can only protect yourself. In the future, when you enter the court and there is no one to protect you, it will be difficult to do many things. You have no shortage of money now, so you can do it appropriately. Cultivate more.”

"Is it appropriate? No one will make random suspicions, right?" He doesn't want to, he doesn't dare.

"Which family in the capital doesn't support people privately? Ordinary wealthy households have to support dozens of nursing homes. A wealthy family like the Sun family may have to support hundreds."

Xu Huaiyi remained silent and entered the RV at night. He couldn't help but tell his wife what he said. Finally, he asked tentatively, "What do you think? Should we buy more people to prepare?"

Gu Huanxi mused, "I think it's better not to take too big a step forward. We already have quite a few, about twenty young adults, and dozens of children as a reserve force. After training, fifty There should be something useful, right? You won’t become fat after one bite, so you’d better take your time.”

Xu Huaiyi was still a little unwilling, "If there are suitable ones, I would like to buy some more young adults and give them to Hu Yingjie to train. That boy is a bit talented in this area. I will give him a little guidance and he will be very good. Don't worry, no It will be kept in vain, and it will not attract anyone's attention. They train in the morning and evening, and have to do farm work on the farm during the day. Otherwise, who will take care of the more than 100 acres of fields? They are indispensable for spring planting and autumn harvest."

Gu Huanxi raised his eyebrows, "Is it similar to the farming system?"

"Well, that's interesting."

"Fine……"

In this regard, she didn't know as much as he did, so she decided not to get involved.

"I will become a disciple the day after tomorrow..."

"Well, everything is ready. Don't worry, nothing will happen."

The two of them waited nervously and expectantly for the day of their apprenticeship, but little did they know that something would happen the next day.

People from Xujiacun came to Hutian Village.

At that time, it was already afternoon, and Gu Huanxi had just returned from sending Gu Xiaoyu to Mr. Jiang's place. Before sitting down and taking a sip of tea, Gao Zhuang came over anxiously.

Gu Huanxi's heart skipped a beat when she saw him like this, "What happened?"

Gao Zhuang's breathing was rapid, and he obviously jogged all the way to report the news, "Third sister-in-law, um, other people from our village have come here. Yes, there is Uncle Xu and his family. Let me tell you first. You have something in mind. They seem to be in a very bad situation, and I'm afraid they won't be able to relocate..."

Gu Huanxi asked, "What's wrong?"

Gao Zhuang said in a complicated tone, "Everyone is skinny and skinny, and they look rough and inhuman. There are also many missing arms and legs, and...the number of people is very small, less than half of what is left."
