Lin Qingyuan is now more stable and handsome. If he looked like this when he met him, he would probably be in another situation.
But now, no matter how suave and romantic he is, Song Liyun will still remember in his mind that he came to Tianxiang Tower to eat roasted lamb kidneys, and was beaten on the ground by Zhou Xiang, Lin Tao and others.
At that time, he was indeed a bastard that made people want to beat him up at the first sight.
Lin Qingyuan stood at the door and dusted himself off before entering the Nuan Pavilion: "Mrs. Song, is your warehouse a little small? It needs to be expanded. I see that the fodder is piled in half of the yard."
The last time Song Liyun returned to Xiaoshi Village, Song Zhenping asked her to collect hundreds of acres of straw to double the space.
Now they have been emptied out and stacked in the yard, almost occupying the open space behind.
There are many horses in Mida City, hundreds of them including Lei Ziying, so the reserve of fodder is very important.
It's just that the grassland is already growing green now, which can satisfy the grazing of horses.
We can't just leave hay like this for a year, we have to find a way to solve it.
"I want to sell some hay, what can you do?" Song Liyun said casually.
Song Dekui thought for a moment: "Don't sell it now. Set up a horse farm outside the city and rent out the stables."
Nowadays, the horses of merchants are still concentrated in the tribe, and every time they use a horse, they have to go to the tribe more than ten miles away to get it back.
The horses brought by these businesses will definitely want to be fed by themselves in the future, and buying fodder is also a must.
It would be convenient to raise them outside the city, but there would be no way to graze them and they would have to be kept in captivity.
Just as he said this, the servant girl Sha Yi brought milk tea to Lin Qingyuan, gave him a wink, and then exited the door.
Lin Qingyuan coughed and looked at Song Liyun: "How easy are these Di girls to use? Do you want to buy some maids?"
He meant buying people from the Wu Dynasty.
Song Liyun raised her eyebrows. She had never thought about buying a maid, partly because she was not used to being served by others.
Erzemida City is remote, and there is a lesson learned from the noble girls of the Wuda tribe. Those maidservants were sold thousands of miles away, and they were not necessarily willing to do so.
Now I will temporarily use Lady Di as my maid.
Unexpectedly, Lady Di was unrestrained and forthright, and she was still the same here as she was in the tribe.
Especially when seeing Lin Qingyuan, a handsome man from the Wu Dynasty, he made no secret of his admiration.
Her master was embarrassed.
Song Dekui was already married, so how could he not know the thoughts of those Di girls?
He looked at Lin Qingyuan and joked: "This Lady Di just now was pretty good. I'll ask Xiaoyun to make arrangements and serve you tonight!"
Lin Qingyuan didn't blush at all for this kind of joke. He said calmly: "Thank you very much, Madam, for taking the trouble. I don't have to run to the tribe anymore!"
Knowing that Lin Qingyuan was joking, Song Liyun couldn't laugh!
There are all kinds of products in Mida City, but there is one thing missing, which is the brothel.
Lin Qingyuan originally wanted to buy some prostitutes, but Song Liyun rejected it.
As a woman, I must be physically and psychologically intolerable to this kind of humiliation.
But Lin Qingyuan, Wanjia, and Hecheng Zhao Tinglei all have shares in Mida City.
In the common sense of these men, a brothel is a standard place to relax physically and mentally.
Although Song Liyun is the wife of the city lord, she cannot deny the rationality of the existence of an industry, let alone the certain needs of the men in the caravan who have experienced risks and traveled long distances.
Now that it was the beginning of the city's construction, Song Liyun denied it and no one mentioned it again.
But... there are no women in the city, but there are women in the tribe!
So some tribes used lowly female slaves to make money, just because the city people needed to run a distance.
In this situation, Song Liyun could only turn a blind eye.
She knew that a charming street would inevitably appear in Mida City in the future.
All I can do is to provide personal protection to those women who voluntarily earn money, check their hygiene, and prevent them from suffering physical injuries and risking their lives.
In the evening, Song Erlang knew that his brother was coming, and he also came to the City Lord's Mansion from the construction site.
When he saw Song Dekui, before he could say anything, Song Erlang went up and slapped him.
Song Dekui was stunned: "Second brother, what are you doing? What did I do wrong?"
"What did you do wrong? You found a good match. Do you know how much trouble you brought to Xiaoyun? You have been here for more than two hundred taels of silver every month, and you also blackmailed people for twenty taels."
When he heard that it was Xia Pu, Song Dekui immediately fainted: "Second brother, I apologize to Xiaoyun, and I will pay back the two hundred taels of silver in the future."
Hearing that Song Dekui was willing to repay the Xia family's money, Song Erlang's anger subsided slightly, but he was still confused: "I'll pay it back this time. Xiaoyun doesn't have to argue with you. What will happen if the Xia family makes trouble in the future?"
"Hey! Don't worry about this! I have taken my father-in-law and mother-in-law out of Xia's house. They are in a place where they will never find them. They want to take advantage of me... Hum, no way!"
"Picked it out? Is it true? Where did you put the person? I have to warn you, if you send him to Ruijin Town again, you will cause trouble for Xiao An!" Song Erlang seemed to believe it.
This younger brother used to be a street walker with itchy soles of his feet and was usually out of shape.
In the past two years, following Xiaoyun outside, I have become more secure than before.
But how is it possible for a living person to say that he can't find it?
But Song Dekui didn't plan to tell his second brother, because if he went back and told his father, he would be accused of being ridiculous.
In the minds of ordinary people, people from the Wu Dynasty settled in the Di tribe only as a last resort.
"Second brother, don't worry, my matter is no longer a problem. Just open the land for Xiaoyun and go home. Parents and children still have to be taken care of!"
Song Dekui's words successfully blocked Song Erlang's mouth, and he was also thinking about Xiaoshi Village.
Although my eldest brother returns to the village from time to time, the town is busy with official duties and it is impossible to cover everything.
There are another hundred acres of mountainous land in Daping, which needs help from people to take care of it.
My parents are getting older, so I still have to go back to feel relieved.
There were ten caravans coming from Mida City, and Lin Qingyuan and Song Dekui were not ready to leave anymore. They stayed to help Song Liyun, who was in a hurry, with the trivial matters in the city.
In the evening, the city lord's palace held a banquet to entertain the guests.
There are no decent cooks in Mida City now. Restaurants are all opened by sergeants from Leizi Camp who know how to cook home-cooked meals. The other is Tianxianglou's signature barbecue, including grilled fish and grilled rabbit.
There is the Mida River here. No one caught it before, so the fish in the river were rich and plump. Since last year, Song Erlang and the others have been able to catch a lot every day.
Now of course there is grilled fish in the city.
I don’t know whether it’s the special aroma of something baked with cow dung, or the difference in seasonings, but the spicy and delicious flavor quickly won the caravans’ love.
Moreover, as the caravan left, the cow dung grilled fish from Mida City was spread.
Later, the cow dung barbecue far surpassed the Tianxiang Tower in Qili County.
City Lord's Mansion.
Song Liyun usually ate the meals prepared by Lady Di, but only when Zhao Tingduo came back did she cook a few dishes herself.
Lin Qingyuan and Song Dekui came today, and Song Erlang was also there. Song Liyun cooked braised rabbit cubes, roasted fish, and several other seasonal side dishes that were placed in the space.
There is also a signature barbecue.
But instead of burning cow dung, they burned charcoal. Several Di girls were waiting on the barbecue, and Song Liyun and others chatted while eating.
Song Erlang said that the soil on the grassland is fertile, and dozens of acres of land by the river have been opened, and now potatoes and corn can be grown.
The grassland has short summers and long winters, so you can harvest when the grassland cools down.
Song Liyun nodded repeatedly, this was the top priority.
Potatoes are both a vegetable and a staple food, and corn is even better, as it can be eaten by both humans and animals.
The next day, Song Liyun found some seeds from the warehouse and was preparing to send them to the river.
A guard came over to report: "Madam, the city lord is back! There is also a team from the Wan family, with hundreds of people inside!"
A caravan of hundreds of people from thousands of families?
