chapter 68

Chen Qin got up from Lu Saisei, put on his pants, got out of bed, went to the window and lay on the windowsill, looking at the Bian River outside. It was late at night, and fishing fires on the Bian River outside were dotted with the rippling stars shaking into the river. The wind blew from the river, carrying the warmth of late spring.

After wiping the sweat that had just been tired, Chen Qin said in a muffled voice: "The magistrate asked you to manage a restaurant here, with food, accommodation and money. What a great thing! With officials taking care of you, no one bullies us here. Wouldn't it be better to go to the capital?"

Lu Saisei spat: "You are also a man. You look strong, but your mind is not helpful! I thought the magistrate would give me a restaurant, but he didn't expect that he would just come here to take care of it. The restaurant is still someone else's. How does three guan and five guan a month count as money? When I met a generous customer, I would throw it away gold and silver, and that's money! I think we'll stay here for the time being, and we can't make plans for a long time."

Chen Qin looked at the Bian River outside the window and didn't speak for a long time.

Lu Saisei was so angry that he kicked the bed with his feet and said, "You are also a man who has been in the world for many years. Why don't you have any prospects? Could it be that you still want to get married to me here and be a loving couple?"

"What's wrong? Maybe we're old, it's time to start a family. Have a son and a daughter, and live a good life--"

Lu Saisei couldn't help laughing: "Silly man! Xu Da Nian, how old is? I am only thirty years old and my beauty is still not weak. If I don't make some money at this time, can I get up early and go to bed late like an ordinary family? I have been young since I was a child, and my hands have not been touched, and Nu Hong didn't know how to do those jobs. If you want to marry a good wife and mother, just die as soon as possible! From now on, you and I have nothing to do, and I will just pretend that you have been sleeping in vain for the years."

Chen Qin said in a muffled voice: "What's the eternal sleep? You didn't seduce me!"

Lu Saisei smiled and said, "Looking at your strongness, I called you to my bed. Is it the only one who is strong in the world? As long as I stand at the door, believe it or not, there will be ten or eight people queuing outside! Humph, I have to collect money after sleeping with them! You say with your conscience, after you get off my bed over the years, I will ask you for a penny afterwards? Not only do you want money, do you still have money to share with you every month?"

Chen Qin was upset and too lazy to settle such a claim with Lu Saisei. With his body and ability, where can he not make money? Why did he make her like a beggar by his side? The mistress is not a mistress, and the servant is not a servant, so what is his identity? But he is so strange that he can't bear to leave Lu Saisei's body with fine skin and white flesh, even if he knows that she is lewd and still can't bear to leave.

Spring is coming, summer is coming, and the wind at night is gone, and it is particularly comfortable to blow on your body. The wind blowing on the Bian River is mixed with the smell of sweat in the house, exuding a beautiful smell.

Chen Qin shook his head vigorously and said in a muffled voice: "The magistrate knows me, and I have an errand to give me tomorrow. As long as I do it well, it is not difficult to establish a root here. I think this place is good. The magistrate is a good person, so it is better not to run around. It's already late at night, I'll go down to sleep, and think about it alone. If the days before were bright and bright, people still have to settle down and plan for the future."

After saying that, he turned around and went downstairs. Lu Saisai was so angry that he scolded Chen Qin for being unpromising on the bed.

The next morning, Chen Qin watched Lu Saisei appear at the stairs in a gorgeous manner downstairs. Without even saying hello, he went out without saying a word. When Lu Saisei saw it, he just sneered. The animal had a temper recently.

The south of the city is a huge lotus pond. It was originally a water cabinet dug along the Bian River when Taizu ordered it to replenish water to the Bian River during drought and drain water during flooding. However, in recent years, the Bian River has accumulated silt, and the riverbed is getting higher and higher, and the water cabinet is gradually becoming less useful. There are water cabinets on both sides of the Bian River and are used to adjust the water level of the Bian River. It is just because the Yellow River has a lot of silt and sand, and the Bian River has severe silt, and many water cabinets upstream have lost their function.

Chen Qin arrived at the south of the city and saw Du Zhongxiao, who had Chai Xin and some entourages standing on the shore, hurried forward to salute.

Du Zhongxiao said: "I'm looking for you today, I have a job to hand over to you. If I stay here for a long time, I will always have to make some money."

After saying that, I walked towards the lotus pond first. Not long after, I saw a crowd of people in front of me.

Du Zhongxiao said: "This is a market in this area, which is twice a month. Let's go to Niuma City to see it."

After walking through a flower and bird market, passing by several dried fruits, there is a large open space. This is the largest livestock market nearby. I saw a large flock of sheep gathering together to eat grass, with horses, cows and mules strolling in groups of three or three.

Du Zhongxiao pointed at a few big yellow cows not far away and said to Chen Qin: "Did you see the red silk hanging on the cow's head? Do you know what to do?"

Chen Qin bowed: "There is no such custom in my small hometown, so I really don't know what it is for."

"This is a custom from Jingdong Road in the north. Whenever you arrive at the market, someone will bring you the raised cattle. If you look strong and have extra strength, someone will use their own cows to breed them. Every time you get a cow, you will hang a piece of silk on the horn."

Du Zhongxiao said this, and saw Chen Qin opening his mouth wide in surprise, and couldn't help but smile: "The one hanging on it is just ordinary cloth, not a real piece of silk, and it's not enough to make a good-looking bread outside. A cow only costs three or five jin of coins, which one is willing to pay a consistent high price. A cattle can be matched with a cattle more than ten times a day. Once a cow is once, you can earn a bad horse in one day."

Chen Qin nodded then. One piece of cloth at a time, can it be possible to grow a cow and produce gold?

Today is discussing major economic and technological issues. Although the topic is a bit strange, Du Zhongxiao still looked calm and continued to say to Chen Qin: "The cattle are only worth five stakes, so it is so valuable. In recent years, the northwest has used troops in the northwest, with few horses less than twenty stakes. If there are excellent rafts and mate with ordinary mares or female donkeys, how much is it worth? I came to you to take care of the county's grazing cattle and horses. If you do it well, you should give it a reward!"

Chen Qin then understood why Du Zhongxiao came to see him for a visit to the Niuma Market, but he was still a little confused and asked, "I'm going to hide it from my husband. Although the young man was born in a farmer, he didn't know how to farm and he didn't know how to grazing. I don't know why he asked the young man to do such a thing?"

Du Zhongxiao said casually: "There are herdsmen when she grazing, you just need to take care of it. First, you see that you are strong and shepherd cattle and horses are not different, but you are weak but you can't help but be weak. Another thing is that you can write and calculate the accounts clearly."

Chen Qin nodded, and then he realized that Du Zhongxiao was looking for his intention. The cattle herding was good, but the cow was gentle and weak, but the horse was strong and he couldn't grazed without any strength. Of course, the real reason was that when Du Zhongxiao saw Chen Qin, he felt that he had a temperamental similarity to the stallion, otherwise Lu Saihan would have kicked him away. He had similar temperaments and should have been easy to work.
