Datang: In order to be a salted fish, I decided to look forward to my father Jackie Chan

Chapter 141
Steward Zhou looked surprised, and was taken aback by Li Xiao's unrestrained thoughts, "Boss, the cattle on the grassland are not suitable for farming. What? Besides, if grassland cattle can plow the land, would Prince Domi of Xue Yantuo sell cattle to us so easily?"

"Is there any cow that can't plow the land? This is probably the biggest joke I've ever heard in my life."

Li Xiao was laughed at by Manager Zhou's idea. If the American bison is not good for plowing land, he still believes that after all, the guy is huge and has a bad temper, but the cattle on the northern grassland can't plow the land anymore?
"Boss, the cows on the prairie really can't use their energy to plow the land. They have a bad temper and don't follow. The cow you used to plow the ground just now is still the most docile big bull, and it still looks like that when you use it. If others Bull, you have already hurt someone!"

Zhou Guanshi said with a wry smile, just now, Zhou Guanshi was leading the ox alone in front of him, but later the big bull refused to be controlled, and another person was added to pull the ox from left to right to plow for a certain distance. It works!

When Li Xiao heard that Manager Zhou mentioned the matter of plowing the land just now, he was very angry. Li Xiao is not a person who does not work hard and does not distinguish between five grains. A strong guy like Li Xiao can't hold a plow, so you can imagine how heavy the plow is!
"Go and call the carpenters, blacksmiths, and strippers!" There are no longer a few people in Zhuangzi who know how to work as carpenters and blacksmiths. How much technical content is needed!
Sure enough, the carpenter and blacksmith heard Li Xiao's explanations and gestures, and they got it right!
Steward Zhou watched the carpenter and blacksmith greet a few people and left, knowing that his boss was going to make some strange objects again.

On Zhuangzi, there are now reserves of everything. First, because the things made by Zhuangzi are very complicated, Li Xiao has reserved some of the craftsmen who can name them, not to mention the materials.

What's more, Manager Zhou also knows his owner's urination, and he thinks of something from time to time, and wants to see it right away, so the things on Zhuangzi may not be as large as the West Market, but there are definitely more types than the West Market!

The bamboo craftsman was the fastest, and it took two sticks of incense to go back and forth. With a flattering smile on his face, the bamboo craftsman stretched out a four-foot-long bamboo rope!
The bamboo craftsman knew that any craftsman who had been instructed by the owner would not fail to make a fortune. The owner was a famous rich boy in Chang'an City!As long as you can get the advice of the owner in a few words, it is a unique skill that can be passed on to future generations.

It's like that He Tieshou with his stick hero, who puts people on the kang every day. From the beginning of the year to the beginning of the new year, he hasn't rested for half a day. That guy, I heard that the cellar at home is full of money. A few, and opened five more cellars, not enough to put money!
Thinking of this, the bamboo craftsman's smile became even more obsequious, "Boss, look at what is missing, do you need us to improve it!" Li Xiao nodded with satisfaction while holding a four-foot-long bamboo rope, which was grown for more than three years. Old bamboo, take the hardest part, break it into bamboo strips, then take green bamboo strips, and twist them into ropes!
Zhou Guanshi looked at the rope and didn't know what to do with it.

Li Xiao explained a little bit, it is used to wear a cow nose ring!

Iron bull nose rings are the most commonly seen in the northern regions of later generations, but in the southwest and the south, most of them use this bamboo rope. The bamboo sticks are sharp and can be pierced directly. How big is the cow with such a violent temper, if the rope is pulled to make it go east, it will never dare to go west!
"What? Boss, if you wear a cow's nose, won't the cow die?" Steward Zhou asked in disbelief. Just use a bridle, or tie up the horns, and you can also wear a nose?
"I won't die, and I will die if I lose a piece of meat? How is it possible? Go and bring the cow over, remember to lead the calf, not the big cow!" Big cows wear cow nose rings, and they really need to take measures to disinfect and prevent infection and inflammation , but Mavericks are different. Li Xiao clearly remembers that people in the Southwest region, during this Ching Ming Festival, directly hold a bamboo rope through the nostrils of Mavericks and run around with Mavericks. After half a month, they will be able to Put on hemp rope!From then on, Niu Niu has an extra fetter of Niu Niu!
Li Xiao grabbed the calf's nostrils with his left hand and looked for the place. At this time, the calf, which was still moving around just now, was only mooing after being grabbed by Li Xiao's nostrils, but it didn't move!
Watching it, Guanshi Zhou and a group of tenants who watched the excitement were amazed, it's really one thing!

Li Xiao pinched the cow's nostril with his left hand and gently pulled it out. The tip of the finger is the brittle bone of the cow's nostril. Without hesitation, he gently pushed the bamboo rope through the nostril with his right hand, and quickly tied a knot, then pulled Xiao Li and ran away. a few steps.

After stopping, there was only a little blood on the nostrils of the cow, and the calf didn't howl a few times. It seems that the workmanship is still good!
"Just like what I did just now, put the [-] calves on the Zhuangzi with nose rings, and then replace them with hemp ropes. Such cows are absolutely obedient!" When Li Xiao was almost teaching, the carpenter was carrying a brand-new Li Xiao hurriedly shouted at Li Xiao, "Boss, I've made it, I've made it!" After Li Xiao took over the new plow, he was about to test it out when he heard the young man come to report that it was People are coming from the palace!
How could people from the palace come to join in the fun at this time?
Li Xiao had already finished the spring plowing ceremony, and the tenants were busy plowing the land to open ridges and plant seedlings. Although new farm tools were made, the farming season could not be delayed, and the hardworking people were still working hard.

Li Shimin took the prince and several guards, dressed in casual clothes, and walked into the farmland in the spring breeze.

Li Xiao originally thought that the person who came was the eunuch from the palace, but unexpectedly the emperor came in person, and Li Xiao didn't make any big fanfare to greet the emperor. Li Shimin has said many times that as long as he is wearing casual clothes, he doesn't need to make a big show of greeting.

It was only Li Xiao and Zhou Guanshi who greeted Li Shimin, and before Li Xiao asked Li Shimin why he came, Li Shimin asked first.

"Shizan, what are you? Plow?"

Li Shimin stared at the new-style plow in puzzlement. Unlike a plow, although Li Shimin was an emperor, he was not the kind of fool who would eat minced meat. Li Shimin cared and valued farming very much.

Every year during the spring plowing, I have to choose an auspicious day, and myself and Empress Changsun will work together in the back garden of the palace to grow some grain. This is not only to pass on Li Shimin’s policy of persuading farmers and mulberry to the workers, but also to set an example for the above-mentioned leaders. !
