Chapter 963 Important things (Part 2)(2/2)
Inside the fur is a gorgeous brocade robe, which was not made by King Liang, but was made by himself.
Thinking of the Platts mansion he saw in Xinping, as well as the wrestlers and beautiful female singers raised in his mansion, Liu Lugu felt a little unhappy.
Pu Gujian, Pu Guting and his son have fallen!
Do they still remember the obstacles and difficulties faced by their ancestors when they migrated?
Do they still remember the road their ancestors took when they were in Shengle?
Do they still remember the heroic ambitions of their father and brother back then?
It is strange that Liu Lu, a Tiefu Xiongnu alone, became sympathetic to Suotou.
The father and son Pu Gujian, who are authentic Tuoba family members, are slowly changing.
The chaotic footsteps stopped at the end of the village.
All that was left in the yard were the wooden pieces lying crooked on the ground and the half-springed corn, but the original old man didn't know where he was hiding.
Pu Guting asked his servant to come forward, search for it, and pull out the old man.
Shao scanned around and found that the yard was really dirty and the smell was terrible. He couldn't help but stopped and didn't want to go any further.
He called a guest named Taguan and asked him to come forward and ask.
This man came from the Tian family in Beiping and spoke Xianbei dialect. After going up there, he chatted a lot with Pu Gu Ting, an old man.
After a while, he came back and reported: "Master, this family has planted more than ten acres of millet, ten acres, and more than twenty acres of pasture." Some mulberry trees were planted at home, but they did not grow. I don't know why.
.
"We didn't kill any sheep last fall, so we relied on hay harvested from the fields and fields to feed them. We also have two horses at home, which we also feed on hay. In the spring, there's not enough fodder, so I plan to feed them with bran and raise them, which will be used soon."
"Where to use it?" Shao Qi asked.
"His youngest son has just returned from Yue's family. He doesn't have much money. He plans to lend him the horse and go to Shuofang with General Zhenbei." Tian Chuan replied.
Wuhuan, Xianbei custom, after a man and a woman have fallen in love, they will go to live with their in-laws for a while, help them with work, and then the couple will "cleanse and leave the house" to officially start a family. Of course, some in-laws will give them part of their property.
, will not really leave the house clean.
"Why are you going to Shuofang?" Shao asked. He knew that last year, Wang Feng, the assistant minister of the country, attacked Shuofang. The first time he failed, he failed to capture Shuofang. The second time he summoned a large group of troops, and finally captured them all. He heard that the general of the town army
Liu Hu was very upset, so he went to work with the Xi tribe and the Helan tribe in the Yixinshan and Nuozhen Shuihan areas.
But he was defeated.
Is there a rebellion in Shuofang?
"Capture prisoners." Tian Chuan whispered: "Start from Shuofang and go south to Kujiesha or Beiyishan to capture miscellaneous barbarians and sell them to the imperial court."
Shao suddenly realized.
"The proceeds from the sale are silk." Tagawa added: "This item was not of much use in the Dai Kingdom, but now you can buy anything from the caravan. According to the old man, his youngest son plans to buy some silk floss and exchange for some.
Brocade, make a brocade quilt."
"How profitable is it to capture prisoners?" Shao was a little surprised.
Brocade quilts are generally only affordable by wealthy households. A miserable herdsman on the grassland actually wants to use brocade quilts? How many slaves does he want to capture?
"I don't know about that." Tagawa shook his head.
Shao nodded.
I really wouldn’t know if I didn’t come, but I would be shocked when I come.
Unknowingly, the situation on the grassland has changed so drastically.
Some people settled down to farm, making a living by growing grain, growing grass and raising livestock. They even obtained mulberry tree seeds from the Wuhuan people and tried to grow mulberries. Some people were semi-settled and semi-nomadic, and the income brought by settling in their lives was increasing day by day.
Some people simply start a business without capital and make money by killing people and capturing prisoners.
There are also Xianbei nobles who make a lot of money from trading in the Central Plains and grasslands, and gradually become fond of enjoying themselves.
The changes are not particularly drastic, but they seem to be an inevitable and unstoppable trend.
Tuoba Shiyijian also heard it.
He seemed to become even more unhappy, always feeling like something in him was slipping away little by little.
Yesterday General Zhendong told him that his mother secretly gave birth to a daughter in Changchun Palace, and she is still raising her there, keeping company with Tuoba Lizhen.
Shi Yijian felt very sour in his heart, even more aggrieved and even resentful.
He didn't know what to do.
Liu Lugu asked him to wait patiently for the opportunity. Once the time came, he would kill the rebels and return power to him.
Shi Yijian didn't dare to do it at first, but now he feels like it doesn't matter.
Words such as "horse plowing", "several times more", and "great increase in harvest" were heard in the distance. He couldn't stand it anymore and was minding his own business.
