Zhi Xuan

Chapter 79

The pigeon was brought back to the city and was taken care of by a medicine servant.

When the fox merchant leaves, the medicine servant will set off with the team. There are also three soldiers and a fire soldier who have been on the battlefield and can deal with emergencies well. They can help the fox merchant and guarantee the operation smoothly.

The grain and hemp brought by the caravan were counted by the Yi doctor, some of them were sent to the specially built warehouse, and the rest were sold in the shop.

Before Zhixuan went to the Western Capital City, he hunted a thousand yaks on the way. Apart from paying the caravan, the rest was used to buy grain and hemp.

This time the business is a steady profit, and the next time, he will need to pay for it himself.

The fox merchant informed Zhi Xuan that half of the Mazhanmi land he bought this time was produced.According to Zhixuan's plan, if the people of Midi were to abandon grain and grow hemp, more gold and silk would be needed.

"It's okay, there is no need to worry about the golden silk."

Zhixuan is not short of money, if he can't, he can dig the corner of Marquis Xiyuan, and he gets used to digging his scumbag father.

"When picking up the hemp, tell the other party that we need hemp that can weave fine cloth." Zhi Xuan added.

There are many types of hemp, and Midi mainly produces three kinds. One can be woven into finer cloth and can be used to cut robes and bedding; the other two are more suitable for making hemp rope and sacks, which are not suitable for wearing on the body.

Zhixuan took hemp to defeat the Mi family, but he didn't want to hurt the enemy a thousand and hurt himself eight hundred.The recovered hemp cannot be piled up in the warehouse to drop ashes, it must be used naturally.

He intends to set up a workshop to absorb some of his subjects and weave cloth in large quantities to improve the shortage of cloth in the fief.

In addition to the workshop, hemp can also be sold in the commercial workshop, and the subjects who have spare capacity can buy it. After returning home, they can weave it by themselves, use it for themselves, or exchange it with others, and it can also fill the household.

As a result, a large amount of hemp that can be weaved is required.Allowing fox merchants to purchase selectively, even at a high price, can also convince the other party that the deal can last for a long time, and they are more willing to give up growing grain and grow hemp instead.

The fox merchant took down Zhixuan's request, and decided to find a familiar merchant as soon as possible, and let the other party come forward on his behalf and spread the news.

Only one step at a time can one step at a time.

He is full of energy now, wishing he could give birth to three heads and six arms, and get everything done.

On that day, the fox merchant was left in the mansion for meals.

Even though he had been invited by the small clan and knew the relevant etiquette, the fox merchant was still very nervous, for fear of doing something wrong.

When the food was delivered, the utensils were exquisite. The fox merchant was not qualified to use a tripod, and the bronze wares were also unusable. The tableware in front of him were all wood and pottery.

The tableware is limited, but the variety of food is not limited.

Not to mention stewed meat and broiled meat, there are also fried eggs, crispy soybean sprouts, and fragrant cooked sauce and broth.The staple food is millet rice and bean rice, and there is a small dish of pickles on the side, which is very appetizing.

As soon as the food was served, the aroma irritated the fox merchant's index finger.

He has traveled around the world all the year round, so he is well-informed. Even the small clan may not be able to enjoy the meal that Young Master Xuan bestowed on him.

The stew tastes very good, fat but not greasy, crisp but not rotten, it should be added with special seasoning, the more you chew, the more delicious it is, it almost makes you want to swallow your tongue.

The taste of the grilled meat is even more unique, and the fox merchant is absolutely sure that the meat was brushed with honey while roasting, otherwise it would not have such a good taste.This stirred his heart.Honey is very rare, but it is used to entertain him, a businessman, how can it not be exciting?

It was the first time that Hushang saw fried eggs with oily flowers.Regardless of eggs or bird eggs, he is used to eating raw, and boiling is the limit.The fried egg on the plate broke his cognition.A few scallions are sprinkled on the egg, which looks extra tempting.Take a bite and put it in your mouth. It is fluffy, soft and tender. The fox merchant can't believe that the eggs can be made so delicious.

The appearance of soybean sprouts was purely accidental.

Zhixuan's original intention was to grind soy milk, and he couldn't make tofu for the time being, so it shouldn't be too difficult to grind a few bowls of soy milk.

The reality told him that it was not advisable to take it for granted.Soaking beans did not pass the test.In a few days, the beans went bad twice.After trying to improve, the beans were not broken, but a bucket of bean sprouts was soaked.

Seeing Bai Shengsheng's soybean sprouts, Zhi Xuan remained silent for a long time.

This counts as intentionally planting flowers and not blooming, but unintentionally planting willows and willows to make shade?

Since bean sprouts are born, naturally they cannot be wasted.

After Zhixuan said that the bean sprouts were edible, the chef tried all kinds of martial arts, including stewing, roasting, making soup, making pickles and even making sauce.Ultimately it tastes best in soups, and it adds flavor when cooking fish and roasts.There are also chefs who add bean sprouts to the fried eggs. The taste is not very good, but it is not unpalatable.

Seeing the heated slate, Zhi Xuan missed the wok very much.

However, the conditions are limited, the smelting technology is not good enough, and iron weapons have to rely on falling rocks from the sky, let alone other things.Whether to use an iron pot or to use it for cooking, he himself feels insane.

After a meal, the fox merchant ate to his heart's content. After leaving the son's mansion, he walked on the road with his head up and his chest up, and the wind was blowing under his feet.

He's not just mental, he's simply hyper.He was so excited that he couldn't sleep at night, so he called all his confidants over, and decided to arrange manpower overnight, and set off the day after tomorrow at the latest, and hurried to Midi to complete the task assigned by Young Master Xuan.

In the son's mansion, Zhixuan ordered someone to hold the lamp, returned to the case, and finished writing the letter to Zhao Hao.

Zhixuan wrote in the letter that he was very satisfied with the two places Zhao Hao chose, and it was difficult to make a choice. It would be better to take them all, merge the two places into one, and build a majestic city.

Before changing to Cheng Feng, Zhi Xuan might not be able to boast.Not so today.Through the construction of the new city, Zhidi craftsmen have accumulated rich experience and brought out many apprentices, which are the confidence for Zhixuan's future planning.

Building materials are also nothing to worry about.

The last time he hunted grasslands, Zhi Xuan discovered that Di Rong's nomadic areas were far from barren and rich in resources.There is no shortage of forests, rocks and mountains, but Di Rong doesn't know how to use them. Instead, he goes south every year to invade the borders of the vassal states.Regardless of whether they can be snatched or not, they will be cleaned up afterwards, which is purely looking for a beating.

Zhixuan intends to use the resources to build a mighty city that can demonstrate its strength and deter all forces.

Therefore, he needs Zhao Hao's help, and with the combined strength of the two, he can complete this grand plan faster.

Zhi Xuan planned to lay sewer pipes in the city.With the adherents of the Tao Kingdom, he has the confidence to get things done.The regret left by the new city must not be repeated in this city.

Zhi Xuan had too many thoughts in his head, and he couldn't stop writing. It wasn't until his wrists became sore that he realized that all the bamboo slips on the case had been used up.

Putting down the knife and pen, Zhi Xuan moved his wrist twice, calling for two more lamps and a few scrolls of bamboo slips.

It was late at night, and the waiter guarding the door was a little drowsy.Hearing the call from the room, he was shocked, straightened up, patted his face, and quickly refreshed himself.

Thanks to the son Xuanrenhou, he doesn't care about occasional negligence.In other clan's family, if he dozed off and was lazy like him, it was inevitable that he would be scolded, even a whip could be given.

The bamboo slips were spread out, and Zhi Xuan picked up his pen again.

Not wanting to get his wrist swollen tomorrow, he tried to shorten the content as much as possible, make a long story short, express his meaning clearly, and then get down to business.

Thinking of what Zhao Hao wrote in the letter, even though his teeth were a little sore, Zhi Xuan still engraved a sentence at the end of the letter: Xuan Yisi Jun.

After engraving, Zhi Xuan stared at it for two seconds, then quickly closed the bamboo slip.Even though he was the only one in the room, he was inexplicably guilty.

"What kind of guilty conscience, illusion, must be an illusion!"

Zhixuan personally tied the bamboo slips with rope, covered them with a wax seal, put them in a cloth bag, and ordered people to send them to Zhaodi in the morning.

When he returned to the bedroom, it was less than half an hour before dawn.Originally thought that he would not be able to fall asleep, but when he lay down on the couch, his eyelids began to sink, and he fell asleep within a moment.

This sleep was very heavy, and when he was awakened by the government order, Zhi Xuan was still a little dazed, opened his eyes, and his brain was momentarily empty.

Seeing him so tired, the magistrate couldn't bear it, but Zhixuan ordered him to wake him up on time every day, and there was really no delay.

Pinching the root of his nose, Zhi Xuan finally stopped being confused, sat up with one hand propped up, took the cloth towel handed by the maid, and directly covered his face.

The cloth towel was soaked in hot water, the heat dispelled the drowsiness, the brain gradually became clear, and Zhi Xuan couldn't help exhaling.

The maid immediately brought the second cloth towel, followed by the medicinal soup for gargling, which was specially prepared by Doctor Sang, with a mint-like taste, which can clean the mouth and refresh the mind.

Zhi Xuan left the bed, put on a black robe, and sat down in front of the desk.

Two maidservants stood behind him, opened the wooden box, and began to comb his hair.Her jet-black hair was tied up, and she wore a jade crown.The hairband wrapped with gold thread was hanging down his cheeks. When a maid came around to tie the hairband for him, she met Zhixuan's handsome face. She knew it was wrong, but her heart was still pounding, and her cheeks blushed involuntarily.

After breakfast, Zhixuan ordered someone to prepare a car, went out of the city to inspect the spring plowing, and then went to the newly opened farmland.

Wild boars appeared in large numbers yesterday, and snake nests were also found. The people who opened up wasteland could barely stop them, but they were very difficult to deal with.Fortunately, the soldiers in the city arrived in time to take down all the wild boars and also caught a giant snake nearly five meters long.

When Zhixuan arrived, the county doctor Ding Bao and several Yi doctors were present.

After one night, the wild boars caught were still not slaughtered, and more than 20 wild boars were locked in a temporary fence, with their four legs tied up and their mouths tied around their mouths.

The cut pork is piled up into hills, and the bones and internal organs will not be wasted. They are packed in wooden barrels and cleaned by slaves.

The snake caught was too huge, and the cooks and cooks were inexperienced, so they dared not handle it without authorization.We can only cover it with several layers of nets, and wait until the witch doctor and Sang doctor arrive.

Seeing Zhixuan driving, the workers stopped one after another, grabbed a handful of grass, rubbed their hands, and saluted Zhixuan at the side of the road.

Ding Bao and several Yi doctors stepped forward and bowed their hands to Zhixuan in front of the car.

"Exemption."

Zhi Xuan got out of the car, and together with Ding Bao came to the fence where the wild boars were held.

All the big wild boars were disassembled, and the rest were sub-adults and piglets, the largest of which did not exceed a hundred catties.

Zhi Xuan looked at it for a while, then turned to Ding Bao and said, "Leave a few piglets and let someone take care of them, and try to see if they can be raised."

Raising wild boars?

Ding Bao was stunned, and the Yi doctors also looked at each other in blank dismay.

It's fine to raise chickens, ducks and birds, but you still want to raise wild boars?

This thing is naturally strong, let alone when it is young, when it grows to two or three hundred catties, when it goes crazy, even a few strong men may not be able to subdue it.

Ding Bao and the Yi doctors expressed their concerns, Zhi Xuan thought for a while, and said: "Take care first, and the teeth will be knocked out. Make the fence stronger, make it into compartments, and raise them separately. There is always a way to tame the teeth." .”

Several people still had doubts. Seeing that Zhixuan had made up his mind, he didn't object any more, and started to discuss how big the compartment should be so as to better restrict the wild boar's movement.

"One more thing." Zhixuan said to Ding Bao when Doctor Yi was discussing in full swing, "You said a few days ago that someone caught a white sika deer?"

"Exactly." Ding Bao nodded and said, "The deer has been weaned and has grown a lot. If you like it, I will order someone to bring it here."

Seeing Zhixuan nodding, Ding Bao immediately called his servant and told him to go back to his residence immediately to bring Bailu back.

"I intend to send this deer to your majesty." While waiting, Zhi Xuan said to Ding Bao.

"What do you mean, son?"

"This deer is auspicious, and should be presented to the monarch." Zhixuan spoke righteously.

Even poaching the corner of Marquis Nishihara's wall made the other party hurt, so he had to find a way to make up for it.The most important thing is that in order to continue digging in the future, we must do something to save face.

Furthermore, the news that the fox merchant brought him was not trivial.He was not sure if Su Hu and Fan Xu knew about the situation of Mi Clan, so he must find a way to send news to Xiducheng.

Sending people secretly is the worst policy, and it is more likely to be beaten by Michael Mie.It's better to be upright and bright and send a team to the Western Capital City in the name of sending deer, with great fanfare along the way, it's best to spread the word throughout the country.

When people enter the Western Capital City, everything will be much easier.

If Clan Mi really wanted to raise troops, thinking of this, Zhi Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Do whatever you want, it's not impossible.
