【This is his man】
Li Yao turned his head and looked at the two behind him.
Mo Bai's heart trembled, and he hurriedly pulled Mo Qing to kneel down.
"Don't worry, Lord Hou, the subordinates will keep their mouths shut and won't reveal anything to anyone!"
Mo Qing was pulled vigorously by him, and fell to the ground like a dog chewing mud, looking at him in surprise.
Li Yao nodded in satisfaction and said, "Go back."
"Yes!" Mo Bai breathed a sigh of relief, pulled Mo Qing up, and got on the horse.
During the whole process, Mo Qing was stunned - as if something happened?
Li Yao lightly gripped the horse's belly and walked towards the cliff.
He deliberately made a movement.
The fat group has been living so happily recently that its sensitivity to danger has plummeted. It didn't notice until Li Yao got very close, and it burrowed back into the mole without thinking.
When Ye Fan heard the sound of horseshoes, Bu froze his head and looked around.
The soft hair revealed a light flaxen color under the sun, making that small face softer and fairer.The bun on the top of his head was loose, flicking and flicking with his movements.
Li Yao stopped at the foot of the cliff and chuckled softly.
Ye Fan followed the voice and finally found his location.
"Eh? When did you come?" The boy smiled brightly, defenseless.
This put Li Yao in a good mood, slightly raised his lips, "Passing by."
Ye Fan grinned, with a smirk on his face, "Since you're here, don't be idle, why don't you do some work?"
As he spoke, he patted the white deer's neck.
Bailu didn't even need a run-up, he just jumped up, jumped off the cliff, and landed lightly beside Hongzao.
Red Zao is a descendant of Hequ Horse King, which is considered extremely high among northern horses. However, compared with White Deer, it is a whole shoulder shorter.
Can this be tolerated?
The pony king immediately snorted, pawed the ground with a "boom-boom", and Xiaobao let out his temper.
The white deer turned its head slightly, squinting at it.
Since taking the special medicine, the eyes and horns of the white deer have turned golden, and the original snow-white long hair is also covered with a faint layer of gold.
The red dates suddenly met those golden eyes, round and bright, with its appearance reflected in them, super...beautiful.
So, he stopped snorting, pawing, and losing his temper. Instead, he approached the white deer like a thief with his ears behind his back.
Ye Fan looked at the bordeaux horse that was rubbing its way stupidly, and wondered, "What's wrong with it?"
"It's time to be in love."
Ye Fan glanced at him, "You are so rude." He said such words, but he was actually smiling secretly with his eyes bent.
Li Yao just looked at him like that, with focused eyes and no distractions.
Ye Fan's task today is mainly to dig mushrooms, all kinds of fungi, and bring soil.
He planned to turn the south slope into a "mushroom garden", so that if there was an urgent matter, he would not have to search all over the mountains.
Li Yao got off the horse, and Ye Fan also climbed off the white deer. The rabbits nested on the antlers. He believed that the white deer would take good care of them.
This is indeed the case, no matter how "provocative" the red date is, the white deer is always docile and docile, caring about the little rabbit on his head.
Ye Fan casually broke a branch and handed it to Li Yao, while he himself held the small bronze sword, without the slightest bit of shame, "Let's compete to see who can dig more."
The corner of Li Yao's mouth twitched, he hadn't played this kind of "competition" game since he was three years old.
If Li Sanlang was standing opposite him, Master Chang'an Hou would have whipped him without saying a word, and then said coldly, "See you at the school".
However, it was this little boy with crooked eyes who couldn't help swallowing the refusal, and replaced it with a simple word - "Okay."
Ye Fan is a very competitive person, as long as it is a competition, he must win.So, he used Fat Tuan's cheating tool without any guilt, and found several clusters of mushrooms in a short time.
Li Yao didn't act immediately, but looked at him silently.
There has been no rain recently, and there are not many fungi in the mountains. The young man seemed to have known it for a long time. After digging one clump, he went straight to the next clump, without any signs of searching or hesitating.
After dug two clumps in a row, Ye Fan suddenly remembered something, and shouted without looking back: "Don't dig them all, keep some fungi."
Li Yao smiled incredulously, and slowly saw some ways, and only chose those places with shade and coolness, under the roots of trees, among the grass, most of them would be there.
Although he didn't have any cheats, he still found several places with his keen sense of smell and strong observation skills - some of which were scanned by Fat Group in advance and Ye Fan didn't have time to dig.
Ye Fan became anxious when he saw it, and quickly moved faster. The little bronze sword danced vigorously, and the expression on his face was very nervous. Those who didn't know thought he was digging for gold!
Li Yao noticed that his sword was about one foot and three inches long, with a rough moiré surface and a bamboo-shaped handle. The wax was narrow and thin, with no obvious decorations.
Li Yao pursed his lips. If he read it correctly, this is an ancient relic from the Warring States Period - Yuchang Sword.
"Yue Jue Shu" contains five swords, one is Zhanlu, one is Chunjun, one is Shengxie, one is Yuchang, and the other is Juque.
Among them, there is an allusion about Yuchang sword: "Zhu Zhu put a dagger in the belly of a fish to assassinate King Liao of Wu, so it is called Yuchang sword." Therefore, this kind of sword is also called "Sword of Bravery". There are many imitation castings in later generations.
Li Yao is fond of ancient swords and has collected a lot of them. He is considered an expert in both size and size. He can tell that the one in Ye Fan's hand is not the original, but at least it is an imitation from the Warring States Period, which is extremely precious.
He used it to dig mushrooms.
Li Yao turned his mind. With Ye Fan's personality, if he asks for it, the other party will deliberately refuse to give it - that piece of land is an example.
In this case……
"If I win, will I have a lottery?"
Ye Fan raised the corners of his mouth and squinted at him, "Dignified Lord, do you still want to win?"
"nature."
Ye Fan rolled his eyes, "reluctantly" said: "Okay, if you win, I will give you something."
When Li Yao got serious, Ye Fan couldn't do it even if he had ten fat blobs—even if the fat blobs spread the map in front of his eyes, it wouldn't help if he couldn't keep up.
After coming and going, Ye Fan simply smashed the jar, grabbed two sour fruits, leaned on Bailu, and watched Li Yao dig while eating.
——Anyway, the land deed will be given to him, so it is considered to be a free labor force.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan's sense of frustration disappeared immediately, and changed into a smirk.
How could Li Yao not know his thoughts?Even if you know it, you are willing to be fooled.
He's just happy.
***
The gully stretches, and the setting sun falls to the west.
After leaving the mountain pass, the white deer turned back into a donkey.
Ye Fan didn't hide the process of change from Li Yao, and Li Yao didn't show any surprise.
On the contrary, Hongzao watched the "male god" turn into a little gray donkey, and the whole horse was not well.It even poked the little donkey with its horseshoe to see if it had hidden the white deer.
Bailu gave it a lukewarm look, and Hongzao immediately felt relieved—oh, it turned out that the male god had put on makeup.
Although it looks a bit ugly, Hongzao will not dislike it. Who makes it a dedicated pony king!
A horse and a donkey walked side by side on the winding path, and their owners were very close to each other, talking affectionately.
Mainly Ye Fan was talking and Li Yao was listening.
It wasn't until Ye Fan babbled about all the big and small things recently that he remembered to ask: "Have you traveled far in the past few days?"
"I went to the south and bought some food."
"Did the new food come down so early?"
"Not yet, but, we must prepare in advance."
Ye Fan immediately remembered the recent rumors, and his face became a little serious, "Could it be... true?"
Li Yao nodded, his expression was not very good, "Hejian Mansion's residence report will be sent to Tokyo in a few days, the Khitan people are ready to move, and it is inseparable from the drought in the Northland."
Ye Fan was stunned, "You don't know how to fight?"
"No." Li Yao said bluntly, "The severe drought in the North has affected the Central Plains, and most of the favored officials in the court are of the lord's and consort's kind, and the officials are old...the possibility of declaring war is very slim."
Ye Fan couldn't understand these twists and turns, but as long as Li Yao told him that he would not fight, then he would feel at ease.
Ye Fan never imagined that there was another situation that would be worse than war.
Right now, he felt a little guilty. As a time traveler, he had been here for so long, but he couldn't think of any way to help people improve their lives.
He turned his head to look at Li Yao, feeling depressed - if he retained modern memories, he would definitely do better than himself!
Li Yao noticed his gaze and met his dark eyes, "What's wrong?"
"Is there any way to alleviate the drought? At least, at least don't kill so many people..."
"Food." Li Yao said bluntly, "Official warehouses report the truth, avoid exploitation by officials, and don't drive up grain prices in various places, which can solve this problem."
However, that being said, how easy is it to do?The person on the dragon chair has almost no hope for opening the warehouse and releasing the grain alone.
Fat Tuan felt the worry in Ye Fan's heart, and risked being "captured" and said to him: "It can be exchanged for food."
Ye Fan shook his head, "Even if I dig out the whole mountain of mushrooms, how much can I exchange for them?"
Li Yao raised his eyebrows, "Who are you talking to?"
The fat group was so frightened that it flattened into a cake, and bit Ye Fan angrily, "Idiot Fanfan, I was discovered!"
Ye Fan took a deep breath, touched the back of his neck, and apologized repeatedly in his mind.
When it's over, I still have to make up nonsense to Li Yao, "I'm talking to you, I want to ask, if you want to exchange food from the south, how much is enough?"
Li Yao shook his head, "No matter how much it is, it's just a temporary solution, not the root cause."
Ye Fan wrinkled his face, "That's right, I still have to plant it myself..."
Speaking of this, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, "Is it okay to grow it yourself? I mean, exchange, no, find some high-yield crops, corn, potatoes, etc., okay?"
"Corn, potatoes?"
Li Yao vaguely remembered that he ate these two things in his dream.Especially when Ye Fan was a child, his favorite was "french fries", which are said to be made of potatoes.
Ye Fan bit his lip and struggled for a while, and finally gave up his mind and said directly, "If I can find some high-yield crops, can I let the villagers plant them together?"
"Corn, potatoes?"
"More than that, there may be sweet potatoes, peanuts, and high-yield wheat that is resistant to drought and lodging."
Ye Fan sullenly looked at him with trust and expectation.
Even if he doesn't understand politics, he can guess what kind of dangerous situation Li Yao will face if Daning County takes the lead in doing this.Even if he refuses, there is nothing wrong with it.
"Okay." Li Yao said lightly.
Ye Fan was stunned. He had thought that Li Yao would make such a decision after a lot of thinking, weighing, and discussing with his staff. However, he never thought that Li Yao was so relaxed right now. agreed.
"You... really don't need to think about it again?"
Li Yao looked at the worry and concern on his face, and curled his lips, "No need, if you can, just do it."
Ye Fan smiled immediately, proud and happy - this is his man, domineering!
