I Love Farming - Chapter 38

The knights’ weapons were smeared with insecticide vine juice, and some thieves were injured. At the time of a meal, it almost broke out and symptoms of vomiting appeared.

The thieves were already hungry, they had nothing in their stomachs, they didn’t have to eat, they just spit out some sour water.

Although everyone had finished eating at this time, they still made disgusting noises. The servants dragged the thieves out of the hall like dead pigs, and poured cold water into their stomachs to relieve the toxicity.

The master said that these people cannot be hanged, he has to stay to do the labor.

What best transforms people? Labor can transform people.

The maids brushed the place where the thieves lay, and because the Lord Baron loved to clean, the castle was not allowed to urinate or spit in the castle, and all garbage had to be cleaned. All domestic waste is pulled to the fertilizer pile every day.

The thieves lay on the ground dying, and everything was taken away. Of course, the Northumberland people would not eat the thieves. After everyone was full, they happily closed the plates.

These thieves have never been able to talk to the lord from beginning to end. At least, the lord showed off the power of his territory.

They all thought that what was waiting for them would be hanged tomorrow, and then hung outside the window hole to show them.

This is the last night of my life, cold and hungry, full of water …

The slaves led the thieves, who had been drinking a lot of water, into the barn.

The thieves were shocked.

Sleeping sheds were not an insult to medieval non-nobles. On the contrary, this was a guarantee that they could live through this cold night!

Sooner or later, why bother to live or die tonight? Is it for tomorrow, that a group of thieves will be neatly punished?

Although they could only live one night, the thieves curled up and approached the animals, warming them by their warm bodies. The animals did not care about whether the visitor was a local or a thief.

Early in the morning the next day, the thieves were dragged to wake up.

“Hurry up, you **** thief!” Said a slave, dressed in sackcloth and holding a spear in his hand, aimed at the thieves bound by his hands and feet and ordering them to go with him.

This is going to die, the thieves thought.

Out of the shed, the slave hung himself back to the woolen sweater that was hanging outside.

The thief boss Joseph looked at him twice more, judging the way of slaves, except for their work, usually clothing. This man just looked like a slave. Now he is a farmer in a woolen sweater.

But then, Joseph was amazed. Last night, people in the hall ate a wave of food, and he couldn’t tell clearly, but today, everyone can tell what they are doing. If it weren’t for Northumberland’s lack of slaves, the slaves here could also wear woolen sweaters.

Either way, it’s too scary.

The thieves were rushed to the toilet, and the slave kicked the bucket and ordered them to collect their faeces. It turned out that the slaves had the lowest status in the castle. All these tasks were done by them. Now with captives, it is different. It stands to reason that in addition to dying, it is natural for the defeated to become slaves. Only the winner has a say.

Rogue: “…”

They didn’t quite understand what this place was and why there were so many dung … Speaking of which, when they were locked in yesterday, they noticed, but didn’t think about it. The castle was too clean, there was no dung on the ground. It turns out that it’s all here. What kind of habit is this? Does everyone have a fixed place to urinate?

By the way, now they still need to collect the feces into the vat. What does this mean? ?

“Hurry up, you lazy pigs!” The slave finally got a chance to scold others. Can he still be happy? He, along with a few others, untied the thieves’ ropes, and his feet remained, but he took ample steps. Distance, the spear pointed at them.

In fact, even without the threat of a spear, these thieves can resist and they are dizzy and hungry.

No matter how dizzy you are, you still have to work.

It is said that there is no farm work in winter, but it is necessary to accumulate fertilizer and maintain water conservancy projects. Fruit trees can also be trimmed at this time. Careful calculation is enough to transform these thieves.

The toilet manure and garbage are all left without mentioning. They have to be transported to the manor, to the compost site, to handle these fertilizers, and to stir the other compost. This is every one or two weeks. Proceed to allow the fertilizer to breathe.

The thieves’ faces were all green, and they were forced to stir the feces constantly, and the smell made them even more dizzy.

“No, no, I’m going to plant it!” Joseph shouted.

The slave said scornfully, “then plant it and try.”

Treating captives has no meaning to relax.

Joseph’s face was dark. Is this going to starve them to death, exhaust them, or smoke them?

Looking at these sticky things, Joseph resisted the nausea and continued to stir, but he continued to scold: “The people of Northumberland have problems, and they should make shitshells themselves, but also force others to be shitshells. Look Come on, there will be a plague in the dung … ”

“Shut up!” The slave knocked Joseph with a stick. If he didn’t catch his companion, he would fall into the fat pit.

And the slave was still scornful: “You know how to fart!”

These are the holy fertilizers that even God approves, which can make the crops grow quickly. Since the “Hellfire” incident, everyone has automatically punished God for stealing fat and God also thinks that fertilizing in the field is good equal sign. Besides, the priest master also has no opinion.

Only these unscrupulous hunks and thieves will say such ridiculous things.

Under the intimidation of spears and sticks, the thieves worked shakyly, and finally stirred up a whole lot of feces. At this time, half a day had passed, and they were covered with sweat and odor.

The manure and domestic waste produced by the owners of the entire estate are not small.

The slaves carefully evaluated the status of the thieves, compared with their past, and determined that they really could not do anything. Then they held onto the ground, tied their hands and feet again, and then … took out the beans.

“Open your mouth,” said the slave.

“… What are you doing?” Joseph looked at him alertly. Yesterday they were poisoned. It wouldn’t be poisonous here either.

But Joseph’s men had opened their mouths and swallowed the beans, and he couldn’t control so much, and he had to be a dead ghost.

No one had a seizure, and they completely believed that they were really fed a meal.

God, aren’t they dreaming?

After feeding, the slaves took the thieves to the river and asked them to repair the dam.

After doing a whole day’s work, I ate two beans a total of about a meal for the slaves, but for the thieves running around without food and clothing, this is actually quite rare.

On the way, they encountered serfs who were tinkering with their houses. The slaves stopped them and helped the serfs make up the roof.

I was so hungry, I worked every day, and once I was tired, I went straight to sleep until the next day. Where did these thieves think about other things?

Joseph also planned to escape several times, hiding under the belly of the cow, and whispering to everyone how to escape when the fat was accumulated. Unfortunately, his men refused.

“Boss, although there is a lot of work every day, but the beans are fixed. When we run away, we may not be able to eat the beans every day.” The thieves think very clearly, “And do n’t you see these days, What are the lives of the slaves in this castle? ”

What day is a day in paradise, wearing woolen clothes, eating sloppy (occasionally leftovers, oil and meat), and even some people are learning to make farm implements-when the slaves came to try to harness the cattle and horses, they all See and hear!

Joseph was silent.

It is free to run in the forest, come and go like a wind, and roam the castles.

Still a prisoner who stayed as a bean, accompanied by litter manure all day.

…

“Master, please! Please accept us as your personal slave! We volunteer to work for you and will not run away!” Joseph lay on the ground and said loudly.

After only a few days of labor reform, he volunteered to serve the exploiting class. Cui Qichao looked at Joseph a few times.

These thieves still have strength, and their physiques are much stronger than his slaves. After all, although they have been unfavorable in recent years, they have been able to get away for so long before, but they still have something to gain, and they eat everything by themselves.

However, Cui Qichao would not believe them so easily, he said lightly: “Look at your performance, you have attacked the castle.”

Joseph thought to himself, wondering if he knew this was the end, or if he knew that Northumberland was so rich, and even the slaves sometimes had enough food to eat, they might as well come to trust.

In order to express his sincerity, Voldemort whispered, “Master, I have a map, which I have looted and understood all over the years. I painted it myself, and I hid it in the forest.”

The map contains all kinds of information that Joseph had in-depth understanding. Some Joseph snatched it, some he found it unsuitable for the time being, and so on. The big and small lords of this era are thinking of annexing each other and seizing resources. Having such a map, or information table, can be said to be a guide to attack.

Joseph even said that he could lead the army and lead the master to attack other castles. In his opinion, the quality of life and fighting standards of the Northumberland Cavaliers could completely encroach on other territories.

Joseph never thought that the Lord Lord would refuse and spend so much food to feed the knights, wasn’t it just for fighting?

And when Cui Qichao heard Joseph’s words, he did light up, staring at him: “You have been to many territories, and you also understand their situation?”

Joseph nodded strongly.

“Good, now you take someone to the forest and get the map back.” Cui Qichao said.

Joseph was ecstatic. He felt that if he had done something, maybe he didn’t even need to be a slave, and immediately under escrow, he went to the place where he was hiding and found the map. At the same time, there are some belongings of the thieves here, because the Northumberland did not interrogate them, let alone capture the prisoner’s private property.

“All these are dedicated to the master.” Joseph said respectfully. In fact, it was some broken clothes, a little bit of food, tools and the like, but anyhow, it showed his sincerity.

In this era, business is extremely bad. Imagine one. Even a baron, he has animal husbandry, plantation, and people under his control. Everyone’s buying and selling is basically a matter for the aristocracy.

For example, spices such as pepper and high-quality cloth are sold by businessmen. They have a long way to go, and the frequency of occurrence is not to mention. There are still many thieves like Joseph who will fight their ideas, and the merchants are generally not considered to be worthy of them.

Sometimes people in two neighbourhoods exchange something, even if it is a laborious transaction. After all, apart from the inconvenience of traffic, serfs are restricted by their personalities, and self-cultivators are not allowed to go in and out at random. There are very few people who can go out, usually the lord. Order someone to go out.

People in the territories did not go out much anymore, and their trade behavior was still small and monotonous. The external information obtained was extremely insufficient, which affected the spread and promotion of crops.

Like the Knights of Northumberland, it was not possible to go far away when fighting.

After getting the map, Cui Qichao carefully watched. Joseph did run through many places, almost close to the north. Some information, he knew more than the businessman. After all, it was forcible. Cui Qichao showed a happy expression. “Very well, you do one thing for me, and if you do well, consider pardoning some of your crimes.”

Joseph immediately said, “Give me a horse, and I can fight to death.”

“What horse is a horse, the horse still needs a plow.” Cui Qichao said casually, “Come, you give me a careful memory, you have seized the food in each of the granaries you have seized, or in other people’s territory. Strange crops you ’ve seen in the past. ”

Joseph: “???”

Cui Qichao: “Hurry up!”

This lord lord is astonishing, not like just a baron. As soon as he frowned, Joseph quickly responded, and began to use barren language to describe things in memory. He thought that it was normal to think about what others had first when grabbing things.

Cui Qichao personally took pen and ink and hemp paper records-this is still difficult to find out. Where do the lords and knights need to write and draw, they usually just fight. As far as Cui Qichao drew a picture of the crop described by Joseph on paper, everyone felt that he was indeed the nephew of the archbishop and that he had culture. Thinking of the “Cui Family” of himself, the lord master also learned some Oriental characters.

At present, there are too few crops in the territory. Cui Qichao wants to enrich the crops. Second, it is not good to not change the grain seeds for a long time.

He listened to Joseph’s description. There must be grapes. This was not grown in Northumberland. Northumberland wines were also bought from merchants. Wine is a luxury because of the church’s admiration for wine, many monasteries also study grape growing and wine making, which can make them a lot of wealth.

Planting grapes is undoubtedly a good way to get rich, but not every estate knows how to grow and brew. Some people grow grapes, but how can they not bear fruit.

In Joseph’s description, Cui Qichao also vaguely identified some crops, such as buckwheat, beets, walnuts, cucumbers, etc., which he was more interested in.

The bumper harvest last year gave Cui Qichao some capital and he could exchange some crops and come back. Even without Joseph, he had to consider entrusting them to inquire when the merchants came again, and now saved a lot of energy.

After recording, Cui Qichao called the housekeeper and told him his idea in front of Joseph.

The steward only heard one important point, “Master, do you want to grow grapes? You will grow grapes ???”

The vineyards say more and less, and they really want to grow grapes. They can still learn grape growing skills in various ways, such as fighting. But the best grapes are basically from the vineyards of monasteries around the country. The power of the church, who dares to challenge.

Because of the knowledge that Cui Qichao showed before, the housekeeper thinks of those huge and high-quality vegetables, and subconsciously believes that if the lord master planted grapes, then the grapes will also look good! when! it is good!

Of course, it is true.

Cui Qichao: “Yes, but also buckwheat, walnuts, cucumbers …”

The housekeeper was crazy and couldn’t hear it. “Isn’t it good that we made vineyards in the wasteland last year? Those prisoners of war can pull the plows, a large vineyard, they can make their own wine, or they can sell to the church—”

Cui Qichao: “…”

Cui Qichao: “You calm down.”

When it comes to growing grapes, I do n’t know that the steward is the descendant of Shennong.

The steward nodded. “Yes, so where shall we grab the grapes?”

Even the housekeeper, after seeing Joseph, thinking of the magnificent knights in his castle, the first plan that came to mind was also snatching.

“Do not grab,” Cui Qichao gave him a surprised look. “Bring a group of knights to a land of almost the same size and growing grapes and exchange seeds with them for wheat.”

If the agriculture here is a bit better, you can change the seedlings directly and plant them just after the soil thaws in spring. Unfortunately, at this time, probably no one cultivated fruit seedlings and propagated with seeds. It took about three years to begin to bear fruit. It took too long to say, and the advantages of the original plants were not retained.

Cui Qichao thought about it. You can be conservative, change some seeds, and change some branches for cuttings. The former protects the latter and saves the road from death.

What the Lord Lord said was not very unexpected from the housekeeper. After all, he hadn’t mentioned aggression in the past year. After all, the so-called **** was just a judgment made by himself. It was not a surprise to hear the Lord’s decision.

Joseph questioned, with such a subordinate, did he exchange honestly? Is this okay for this master?

Where Cui Qichao cares about him, he said to himself: “The mountains are long and the water is long. The knights go around in this way, hoping that spring will come back, just in time for the seeding. Since I want to go out, I will bring more venom to defend myself. Be sure to protect me. Seed.”

Do the math, when you arrive at the grape plantation, you can cut them to help them pruning …

…

Cui Qichao selected a team of knights and their attendants to form a trade team, and explained in detail the tasks of this line. “Sausage, bread, cured meat, jam … have been brought to dry food, I hope you have a good life, but also I hope you will take good care of my crops. ”

The knights, look at me, I look at you, they all answer loudly. To be honest, they are all busy with long hairs, and finally they can go out to fight-even if the main purpose is to exchange seeds, they may be able to meet thieves like Joseph who are not long-sighted on the road and can show their skills.

When Cui Qichao saw that the knights should come down, he ordered: “I teach you how to identify good seeds, don’t be deceived, and the seeds that are replaced will not grow out. Also, you must take extra care to preserve the grape branches. You You need to have containers, rivers and soil ready and take care of them on the road. ”

Cui Qichao knew that the knights didn’t understand these. He opened up teaching, and each person was only responsible for his own internal affairs, from selecting cuttings, pruning and cutting to storage, maintaining temperature, and so on. Be sure to do a good job of storage. Let the grape branches arrive safely at Northumberland.

At present, the grapes have not yet sprouts. You must choose branches with full bud eyes, mature and excellent branches, fill the soil and sand in the container, and dig trenches to bury. It happens to be winter now, and it is estimated that it will snow in a while, and it is suitable for storage around zero.

As soon as I thought that there would be vineyards in the manor, with the generosity of the lord, maybe everyone would invite everyone to eat grapes and wine, and the members of the trade team were very excited!

Cui Qichao encouraged them, “If a thief is encountered on the road, be careful and protect yourself. As long as I return safely, I will give you a reward.”

After hearing the lord’s promise, the knights shouted loudly:

“For the Lord’s Grapes, we will desperately work hard!”

“Relief, lord, if you encounter a thief, you will all come back and help you plant the land!”

It seems that everyone’s usual hobbies are in their eyes and in their hearts. After a while, Cui Qichao warmed in his heart. “I didn’t expect that you still have this heart. Come, pour some wine to see these good guys off.”

…

It is conceivable how crowded the audience of the ljj platform was when this episode aired:
