A few months later, the master of the prisoner of war was redeemed.The rest were redeemed one after another, and in the end there were more than 800 people left, and there were thousands of cattle and sheep in the camp.

Shen Kuo also specially selected 30 prisoners of war to raise cattle and sheep. Many of the prisoners of war were slaves of local farmers, so they were better at raising cattle and sheep than fighting.

The remaining more than 1000 prisoners of war went to grow potatoes.Shen Kuo specially bought a large piece of wasteland outside the county, the kind where you can't see the edge at a glance.

Mobei is a large place with few people, so there is no shortage of wasteland.

Although the wasteland looks dilapidated, the Zhang brothers have a special technique of burning manure, which can turn decay into magic.

Big Fatty was one of the first ten people hired by Shizi in the county, and he learned a lot from the Zhang family brothers.

The two brothers of the Zhang family have a field, so many people command them, and there are all kinds of seeds, they can't wait to grow in the field all day long.They also invited their teacher a few days ago.

Now they are starting to plant apple trees together with their master and apprentice. Of course, the Shizi gave them a task.The land can be planted casually, and he can buy more if there is not enough land, but growing potatoes is the most important thing.

The large potatoes they produce each weigh more than a catty, and the largest can weigh about two catties.It can be used as both rice and vegetables, and it is durable. Now it has become the most important ration for the people in the county.

I heard that the Su family's army has started to order potatoes from the Shizi for military rations, and the production capacity must keep up.

Fatty is happy just thinking about it, and now he has reclaimed three large pieces of farmland.Now it is the fourth piece of farmland, and his favorite thing to do is to dig potatoes.A shovel down, but a sense of accomplishment.

But when it comes to work, the locals are really inferior to the Huns. These people are powerful.But it can also be eaten.

Fortunately, they still have enough potatoes.

As soon as Fatty came over, he saw a young Hun with blond hair and blue eyes, who looked like he was in his 20s, but in fact he had just passed his 14th birthday. His name was Su Ku.Although he is young, he is considered to be relatively smart among the prisoners of war, and now he has been promoted to be a small steward.

Unlike ordinary prisoners of war, the little steward was paid [-] Wen a month, and had four days off every month to go shopping in the city.This is unprecedented for Su Ku, he was originally a slave of the farm master, let alone pocket money.In the past, I was often beaten for not being able to eat enough.

Now they live in a big house, he is a small steward and they live in one room, instead of living in Datongpu.If the chief steward was paid better, he could live in a separate room. In the past, he could only live in a leaky cowshed with the prairie farmer.

A person of his stature has never slept in a bed.Now he sometimes thinks back, how he became a prisoner of war, and his life is more vigorous than before.

His younger sister and mother are still working as cows and horses in the master's house on the prairie farm, especially his younger sister is good-looking, and his mother will always smear her face with thick horse manure, for fear of causing trouble.

He now saves money every month, and goes to work in the county during the holidays. After saving more money, he takes over his mother and younger sister.

Seeing Big Fatty approaching, Su Ku immediately unloaded the manure from the cart.This is a good thing.The poor fields are buried with manure, and after a few more rains and snows, the fields will become fertile, and what you plant will grow.

Although Su Ku had seen it many times, he was still curious.I heard that the manure has been specially treated, like a lot of straw and other things are mixed in, and the smell is not bad.

I feel more and more miraculous. If I can also learn this skill, it can be regarded as a craft.The last time the dung burning side recruited people, he signed up, but he was rejected because of his age, which is very regrettable.I heard that everyone over there has a hundred cash a month.

Fatty knew Su Ku well, and said, "You usually work here, and you go to the county to look for work during the holidays, aren't you tired?"

Su Ku said: "I'm not tired." He wants to save money, but the people of Feiyun City have a deep grudge against the Huns, like the past few times when they went out, they would be thrown away. It's better now, but they are not willing to use them These Hun workers, even if they are cheaper and stronger.

Fatty said: "There has been too much land reclamation recently, and there is not enough manure. Fortunately, we have cattle and sheep to pick up. The son said that we will build a public hut, and then everyone will not have to go to the toilet at home, which will be convenient. If you want to do it, I’ll tell the supervisor, how about five cents a day if you’re one of them?”

Su Ku immediately put down his work, wiped his hands, and said, "I really don't know how to thank you so much."

Fatty said: "Thank you. If you want to thank, thank our son and the little general."

Everyone in Feiyun City said that since the arrival of the eldest son, the city has been different every day. There are cheap potatoes that can be used as a staple food, and some jobs are always posted.Anyone who works hard can make some money.

There is something to look forward to every day, and now many people from other counties come to them to buy potatoes and go home.Recently, I have to recruit workers again, and they are all waiting in line. I am afraid that I will not be able to work if I am late.

Su Ku said: "My son and General Su are the biggest good people in the world."

Fatty was extremely happy, as if he had been praised.

In the general's mansion, Shen Kuo, who was hailed as the number one good man in the county, was nervously pacing outside.

Su Muqian is going to have a baby.

The house was filled with father-in-law coming in and out, and the atmosphere was very tense.

After a while, Zhan Zhan ran over, and Shen Kuo picked up his adopted son.This will ease his anxiety.

After a long time, Lan Ting whispered beside him: "Master."

Shen Kuo immediately looked at him, and Lan Ting said: "You are hugging too tightly, Young Master Zhan is almost holding back."

Shen Kuo quickly lowered his head, seeing that Zhan Zhan was hugged too tightly, his face turned red.Shen Kuo said: "I'm sorry, godfather is not good."

Zhan Zhan can't speak yet, he is almost three years old, no matter how funny he doesn't speak.But look at his blue eyes, but feel that he understands everything.The little guy also felt the tension here, and put his arms around Shen Kuo's neck.

Shen Kuo said: "It's okay, Zhan Zhan is not afraid."

As soon as the words fell, I heard footsteps outside, and General Su and Army Division Su also came back: "How is it?"

Shen Kuo said: "It's been two hours since I went in."

Su Junshi said: "Mu Qianji people have their own celestial features."

Shen Kuo nodded solemnly.

After a while, I heard a baby crying in the room, the door of the room opened, Shen Kuo just put Zhan Zhan on the ground, and wanted to enter the room to have a look, who knew that Zhan Zhan ran into the room first.

Shen Kuo followed behind, and Eunuch Chan came out to announce the good news: "Congratulations to the son, General Su, for giving birth to a young master."

Zhan Zhan ran over to step on his feet to see the newborn cub, which was as big as a cat cub.

Zhan Zhan hesitated for a moment, and said, "Brother?"

Shen Kuo was overjoyed, and hugged Zhan Zhan and kissed him: "Good boy, you can talk now."

Then he looked at his own son, who was red and wrinkled, extremely fragile, Shen Kuo didn't even dare to touch him, and looked at him without blinking, this is their tuantuan.
