Chapter 42: Wutong Villa (2)
I imagined the beautiful scenery along the way, and the convoy was not far from the villa.
Yin Qingfeng looked at the front immediately. The villa was on a platform that suddenly appeared at the foot of the mountain. After going up along the long slope, you could see the vague upper half of the gate.
Although there are a lot of plants and trees planted around this platform, it can still be seen that the platform was artificially accumulated. I don’t know how much manpower, material resources and time the owner spent at that time.
The slope can be more than 20 meters wide and about 1,000 meters long. Half the bluestone steps and half the bluestone, it looks quite grand.
But what's strange is that there is a bluestone lying cow on both sides of the slope. If it weren't for the two lying cows lying stone sculptures, Yin Qingfeng would have thought he had arrived at the entrance of the stock market.
I don’t know what kind of habit this former owner had. It’s good to put it on the stone lion or something. Did the original owner know that this place was destined to be a cattle farm?
Yin Qingfeng had some nonsensical thoughts in his heart at this moment.
A group of people stood under the hillside, looking at the direction Yin Qingfeng came. Yin Qingfeng knew that these people were his own people.
When the group of people was still a thousand eight hundred meters away, the group of people scattered to both sides, and the three of them came to Yin Qingfeng and others.
"Haha, it's Xu Jingzong's grandson." Yin Qingfeng couldn't help but feel secretly happy when he saw Xu Jingzong and the two palace maids walking towards him.
I don’t know what Li Shimin told him, but since he has come, Li Shimin probably plans to give up on him. Xu Jingzong also seemed to have thought of it, otherwise this old face would not have been so long.
Since Xu Jingzong woke him up from his beautiful dream, Yin Qingfeng has been thinking about how to minimize his harm.
This grandson is very capable of living until he was eighty years old. With his ability and character, if he is not transferred from the center of power, he will sooner or later be a disaster.
On the 14th day of the first lunar month, Yin Qingfeng sued Xu Jingzong for his "black behavior" to Li Shimin. Li Shimin made the decision at that time and threw him over to Yin Qingfeng to raise cattle and horses.
When Yin Qingfeng's horse arrived nearby, Xu Jingzong bowed: "Jingzong has seen a county man."
Yin Qingfeng didn't even get a horse, "It's been a long time since I've been there, Mr. Xu."
Xu Jingzong concealed his anger very well, "I dare not. Jingzong will obey the orders of the county men in the future and will no longer be a bachelor of the Qin Palace."
Yin Qingfeng was even more happy when he heard this, but his mouth was a different story, "No matter where he went, what he did, it was for the Tang Dynasty. If this plowing ox was not important to the Tang Dynasty, he would not have sent you and me to come here to suffer, do you think so?" While speaking, he looked at Xu Jingzong with his head down.
"Yes, yes, Jingzong must obey the county men's instructions to do their jobs." Xu Jingzong responded without looking up.
"I don't know if the two people behind Mr. Xu are..."
"I have met my husband Fan Yuniang, and I have seen my husband Xue Fanxing... I have been sent by His Highness Changsun to serve my husband."
"Sent from the princess?" Since it was his own person, Yin Qingfeng was not polite, "This is your wife Ren, so I'll just follow her orders in the future."
If it were in modern times, Yin Qingfeng would have been very confused and approached these two beautiful girls. Now he is the master, so he doesn't have to worry about what they think, so Yin Qingfeng rode his horse and continued to walk forward.
He knew very well about women that different people should treat them differently. These two palace maids were sent or sent from the Qin Palace. If they were not relieved at the beginning, it would be difficult to manage in the future.
Xu Jingzong, who was lazy by Yin Qingfeng, followed behind the horse's butt with a dark face.
Yin Hanlai was familiar with Yin Liang, and he asked Yin Liang softly: "I'm afraid that's not good for the people in the Qin Palace like this?"
Yin Liang glanced at him and said, "You don't have to worry about your husband. He has always been confident in doing things. You'd better just follow your words, do you understand?"
"I've written it down."
When passing through the alley, Yin Qingfeng only glanced briefly, then raised his head and looked at the sky. He was afraid that his tears would flow out after another look at the miserable situation of those people.
Most boys and girls under the age of ten don’t have any clothes, women can barely cover up their shame, and most men have bare backbone. The eyes are numb and dull, their hair is dry and messy, and their ribs are visible...
Although Yin Qingfeng knew that the apparently glamorous Tang society had always implemented a slave system, he did not expect that their status was so low and their survival was so difficult.
Yin Qingfeng, who had endured the grief, softly comforted Yuemei, who had already cried.
When he came to the crowd, Yin Qingfeng called Yin Han to come forward, "Han is in charge of business, go to the top to get a few tables, chairs, pens, ink, paper and ink."
"yes!"
Yin Qingfeng immediately shouted to the group of people: "Look clearly, I have the people in front of me. She is Ren's wife, and she and I will be your masters from now on. If anyone dares to disobey our will in the future, he will definitely not let it go! Remember it all!"
Yin Qingfeng sympathized with these people, but he had to establish his prestige first. He also made some ideas about the future of these people. However, now is not the time to implement it.
Yin Qingfeng jumped off the horse and helped Ye Yuemei off the horse. Then he called Yin Liang and Xu Jingzong, and Fan Xue and others to come to him.
He first asked Fan Xue and the others, "Do you sisters know literacy?"
Fan Yuniang bowed and replied, "I have been reading for a few years."
"Then let's help register with Mr. Xu."
"Yuemei, take out the form I gave you and teach them how to use it later."
The content of the table is not very complicated, it is nothing more than name, gender, family relationship, what you have worked in before, whether you are literate, and what are your specialties. Raising cattle alone is too simple, and Yin Qingfeng wants to have fun here.
After explaining to the three of them, Yin Qingfeng said to Yin Liang again: "Uncle Liang, my voice is a little small. I will say something later, and you can shout it for me."
"Yes, husband."
"The shepherd and his family will stand on the left. The tenant will remain unmoved, and the official slave will go to the right." Yin Liang repeated Yin Qingfeng's words loudly.
These three types of people can be distinguished from their clothes and appearance and temperament, especially official slaves. Young and beautiful women account for half of them, and the remaining masculinity is also good; the herdsmen should dress neatly, as for those tenants...
"The official slaves first register, and then the literate official slaves help to register together. All women register first, and then assist their children to register, and the man waited until the end."
Yuemei quickly taught Xu Jingzong and Fan Xue how to fill out the form. After the table was moved down, the three of them immediately started registering.
Whenever a female official slave is registered, the female official slave will sit down and register for others. After the information of the male official slave begins to be registered, the male official slave will replace the female official slave and continue to register for the herdsmen and tenants.
After Yin Qingfeng saw that all the female official slaves had been replaced, he called Fan Yuniang over, "Some of the ones in the car were prepared for you, and the rest were for those tenants.
You leave a few people and call a few women. The people I brought from the Siweilou will teach them how to cook. The rest will follow the wife to set up the room."
Yuemei took the people away, and Yin Qingfeng followed curiously, behind the women who had already registered and walked back.
Not far from the west of the slope, Yin Qingfeng saw a shack built with branches, and he couldn't help but stop. Thinking of the clothes of these people, he had the urge to cry.
"This is our suffering ancestor~~~" He turned around and left, without looking at the rest, and knew how hard these people were.
Yin Qingfeng almost returned to the slope with a trot. He found Yin Hanlai and Fan Yuniang in the crowd, "Hanlai is in charge of business, you can unload the goods directly to the ground, and now you will take people back to the city to buy food and meat, and be sure to come back before dinner.
Mrs. Fan, let them take away the fabric and bedding prepared for the tenants now. But she must tell them to clean their bodies first."
