In Qin Dynasty, the hero of the bright moon dominates the world

Chapter 156

In the morning, the sun shines on the earth, and a fresh smell from the mountains and forests pours into the courtyard.

Pao Ding stood in front of the sheep pen, looking at a dozen fat sheep in the pen, and was thinking about which one would be his food for today.

Finally, Pao Ding looked at the fattest sheep.

It was decided that it was.

With a sound of bumping, Pao Ding grabbed the sheep out of the sheepfold, hit it with a stick, picked it up and walked away.

In this courtyard, most of the people are from the Zhao family village, only in the kitchen, which belongs to Pao Ding, there are more than twenty cooks, all disciples of the Mohist family.

Usually they are responsible for preparing meals, but they are also a way for Zhao Shuang to communicate with the outside world.

Pao Ding was carrying the sheep, and when he passed the granary, the Mohist disciples in the kitchen were carrying the grain and preparing to cook, when they saw Pao Ding, they waved to each other.

In the stables, more than fifty war horses were grazing forage.When Pao Ding passed by the mansion, he saw Bai Lu reprimanding several soldiers, blaming them for accidentally hurting their horses while they were patrolling.

War horses are very precious, and the cost of raising them is not low. The rations are mixed with beans to obtain high-quality feed.It took a lot of time to take care of a horse that was injured.

This woman is too fierce.

Seeing Bai Lu who trained several tall and strong men to be like grandsons, Pao Ding was startled, and his pace quickened a little, not wanting to stay for a long time.

The entire courtyard is very large, with high walls and solid foundations. There is a hollow wooden low wall on the outer layer, like a small city, with turrets at all four corners, and a tower standing in front of the gate.

When Pao Ding was walking from the granary to the kitchen, he saw a soldier who was on duty from the turret going back to the longhouse. When he saw Pao Ding, he yelled.

"What are you eating today?"

"I rushed early in the morning and bought a hundred fresh fish from the fishing village at the foot of the mountain. I have fish soup today!"

Pao Ding was very acquainted with this group of soldiers, but the other party did not know his identity, nor the identity of their Lord Hanyang.

More than twenty soldiers stepped down from the turret one after another, stretched their waists, and planned to go back to sleep.

The turret is an independent military facility, three feet high, divided into several floors, and there is a resting place for soldiers to take turns to rest.There is a gap in the middle layer, which can be connected with the wooden wall of the outer layer, allowing crossbowmen to move and patrol.

The courtyard is clearly defined inside and outside, and the longhouse where soldiers lived is built along the courtyard wall.Pao Ding passed through the front yard, and just in front of the tower at the main entrance, a carriage passed by a soldier and was slowly driving in, passed in front of Pao Ding, and entered the middle courtyard.

Ordinary people's carriages can only be parked outside the building, but this carriage drove straight in, which shows that the status is extraordinary.

Pao Ding shrugged his shoulders, followed Yi Zhe's carriage into the middle courtyard, arrived at a corner of the kitchen, yelled, and started preparing meals together with a group of Mohist disciples.

In front of the verandah, there is a row of waiting lanterns.

The gurgling clear water in the courtyard was originally a pool of stagnant water. After repairing, it received water from the mountain and became running water.

After some rest, the courtyard in the mountain changed its appearance. It was originally a mess of trees and flowers, and it became full of vitality.

At noon, Pao Ding entered the main house where Zhao Shuang lived, carrying a large plate.

In addition to Zhao Shuang, there was also his guest in the room, the person in the carriage just now.

Since Zhao Shuang came here, many people have come to visit.These people have complex identities, including nobles and officials from the Qin Kingdom and even the Six Kingdoms, knights from all over the world who want to become Zhao Shuang's disciples, and even some bachelors who come here admiringly.

But this one is indeed a bit special.

"My lord, the pan-fried lamb chops, roasted lamb leg and this bowl of lamb soup are very nourishing."

Zhao Shuang nodded and said.

"Thanks a lot!"

Pao Ding chuckled and retreated.

"My lord, if you enjoy your meal, that's good."

Mr. Changping cut a small piece of mutton with a knife, brought it to his mouth, took a bite, and nodded.

"It's really good! This cook's skill is truly amazing."

Mr. Changping was not stingy with praise, he tasted it, picked up the silk cloth on the table, wiped his hands, raised his head, and asked a question.

"What is the relationship between you and the jade-faced flying dragon, the leader of the Mo family?"

Mr. Changping's question came out of the blue, but Zhao Shuang smiled.

"Why did Mr. Changping ask such a question?"

Mr. Changping noticed Zhao Shuang's words at the moment, as well as his expression at the moment.

"The daily expenses and repair expenses in your house alone cannot be supported by the income in your territory."

Although both of the two people in this house are enfeoffed emperors, their incomes are completely different.Lord Changping's territory is in the prosperous Guanzhong, the hinterland of the Qin State, with a dense population and fertile land. Even though Lord Changping's territory is smaller than Zhao Shuang's on the map, his income is dozens of times that of Zhao Shuang.

"Two racecourses in Shangjun, more than a dozen shops in Xianyang City, two large caravans in the merchant station, and workshops in various places in Guanzhong. When you came to the throne, Mr. Zhao only gave you a Zhao Family Village. Where do you get the money to buy these properties? There is no impenetrable wall in the world, since I can detect it, so can Lu Buwei."

When Mr. Changping told all this, it seemed that he wanted to see through Zhao Shuang.

"As for Lu Buwei, sooner or later, like me, he will be able to find out the connection between the Mo family and you."

Zhao Shuang smiled and didn't care at all.

"There are laws in the state of Qin, can the emperor not communicate with the family members of the various schools?"

Changping Jun looked at Zhao Shuang with aggressive eyes.

"You should know, what does this mean?"

"Is it like the relationship between the farm family and Mr. Changping?"

"What do you know?"

Zhao Shuang smiled and slowly raised his head, and the eyes of Mr. Changping in front of him were sharp.

"The Mo family and the peasant family are in the same land of Qin and Chu. They are neighbors and communicate with each other. Since Lord Changping can detect the connection between the Mo family and me, how can I not know that Lord Changping is related to the peasant family?"

Mr. Changping lowered his head slightly, the luster in his eyes dimmed a bit.

"Then you admit that the Mohist leader is serving you?"

"Mr. Changping was just joking. These people in the Jianghu have always been rebellious, so how can they serve others? They just came for profit and left for profit. But the relationship between Lord Changping and the peasant family, I am really a little bit uncomfortable. Understood."

Mr. Changping smiled, not intending to entangle in this matter.

"Ordinary people only value the strength of troops, depending on the number of soldiers, but when it comes to a real contest, it depends on financial resources. Your yard seems to be well-organized, but if there is no financial support behind it, I am afraid that it will not be able to maintain its current prosperity."

"Agricultural and businessmen are excellent, but if you want to sell goods to the world, their help is indispensable, so we will naturally cooperate."

"Is that so?"

Zhao Shuang smiled slightly, and didn't intend to delve into it, but just asked lightly.

"Lv Buwei made a move to live in a rare commodity, and in exchange for today's foundation. Everyone in the world wants to follow suit, what does Lord Changping think?"

As soon as these words fell, the refreshing room suddenly became silent, Mr. Chang Ping narrowed his eyes, and his momentum was deep.

Words of punishment, full of murderous intent.
