"There is such a person in this world. I just saw him wearing fine cloth with patches all over it..."

"He is the only one in Zhuoxian who wears fine cloth robes and straw sandals.

Let me tell you a story about Liu Bei. I am six years older than Liu Bei. When he was young, he was also a smart person in Zhuoxian County. At that time, the young village owner was still young, and the entire West City was mostly managed by Liujiazhuang.

Liu Bei was very young and had a high reputation in the Liu family at that time. His benevolence and righteousness brought a lot of prestige to the Liu family..." Zheng Lai continued.

"Then why has he reached such a state now?" Liu Xin asked puzzledly.

"Liu Bei's mother hoped that her son would become a successful person, so when he was 15 years old, she gave him the money that the family had accumulated over the years and asked him to go to Luoyang, the capital, to study. At that time, the head of the Liu family, Liu Yuanqi, asked his son Liu Deran to accompany him.

The two brothers went to Luoyang with 300,000 yuan. However, when they arrived in Luoyang, Liu Bei liked to wear silk brocade, go to restaurants and teahouses in the capital, spend all day drinking and drinking, fight cocks and walk dogs, and listen to music in a brothel with the children of aristocratic families. 300,000 yuan

He was so disgraced in less than a year.

The clan leader Liu Yuanqi received letters from Liu Bei and Liu Deran, and sold hundreds of acres of farmland to them in two years to raise more than 200,000 yuan for their tuition. As a result, they ran out of money in just two years, and the Liu family could no longer support themselves.

It will allow the two of them to finish their studies halfway." Zheng Lai said to Liu Xin.

"What about when Liu Bei and Liu Deran come back?" Liu Xin asked curiously.

"Liu Yuanqi, the head of the Liu family, bought his son Liu Deran a job as a clerk in the county government. However, Liu Bei had been completely abandoned by the clan leader and was struggling to make ends meet with his mother at home, weaving mats and shoes. A few years ago, his mother married a poor man.

My daughter is my wife, and I heard she has a very fierce personality. In recent years, Liu Bei has become more and more silent!" Zheng Lai sighed.

When Liu Xin heard this, he looked at Liu Bei who was not far away. He was sitting quietly with a natural look on his face. No one could guess what he was thinking.

"Liu Bei's ambition is rare in the world. If given the chance, he will achieve great things. Is this true after hearing that Liu Bei is also the son of Emperor Jing of Han Dynasty, Prince Jing of Zhongshan?" Liu Xin couldn't help but ask after hearing this.

"Prince Jing of Zhongshan Liu Sheng gave birth to 126 children. It has been more than 300 years since now. After 16 generations, in the entire land of Jizhou, Youzhou and Qingzhou, 30% of the people with the surname Liu are basically descendants of Prince Jing of Zhongshan Liu Sheng." Zheng Lai

After thinking about it, he said to Liu Xin.

Liu Xin couldn't help but marveled that Liu Sheng, Prince Jing of Zhongshan, was so powerful. Their family was too poor to afford a family tree. His own surname was Liu, and he might be after Liu Sheng!

Liu Xin and Zheng Lai chatted for a while, and Liu Xin paid for the pig offal and pig heads from the butcher shop today, and took them back because the mixed meat would be almost sold out today, so Liu Xin could only go to the Chengdong butcher shop to have another look.

In the afternoon, Liu Xin dragged his tired body back home. Although he was hungry and uncomfortable, he was extremely happy in his heart. His force value had improved a little more during the late training. Now his force value has reached 18 points, and his muscles have improved.

His appearance is completely different from when he first traveled through time.

In the past, it was difficult for him to dance a few times with a wooden sword, but now it becomes easier for him to train with Zhang Fei from beginning to end, and his whole person has become much lighter.

It was already dark when he got home, so Liu Xin gave the straw mats he bought to Mr. Cui, Zhang Qingyu and Zhang Xiao, so that they could sleep more comfortably at night.

Mother has already prepared dinner. Zhang Qingyu and Zhang Xiao have put the pig that Liu Xin bought today into the water, cleaned the pig's head, and are just waiting for Liu Xin to put it in the pot and add seasonings!

The second brother has left after chopping the firewood, and Liu Xin will make up for his wages tomorrow. The mother of the chicks has already taken the chickens into the chicken coop, put them in her room, and added feed to the chicken trough.

"Hurry and sit down and eat! From now on, let your little sister sleep with the older sister. Cui will take the child with her. It's too cold to sleep in the woodshed, so just sleep with me!" His mother saw Liu Xin sitting down and said to him.

"Mom, you can arrange it!" Liu Xin picked up a hot cake. Today's hot cake was made with millet and wheat. Liu Xin couldn't eat it after eating one. He drank two bowls of thick porridge, and his stomach didn't feel so good.

hungry.

Liu Xin is building a farmhouse on the barren hill of Luyin River. Everyone in the family knows that they cannot eat white flour every day and eat meat without restraint. The poor people think that eating well is shortening their lifespan and is disgusted by God. Liu Xin does not

He knew why everyone had such thoughts, but he still followed his mother's wishes.

Liu Xin's family of four were eating inside the house, but Zhang Qingyu and Cui were also eating under the eaves at the door. They all had a bowl of thick porridge and a mixed sesame seed cake. Liu Xin did not restrict them from eating, but they only took one sesame seed cake.

I didn’t take it again.

"Third son, my mother was adding feed to the chickens tonight and saw that there was not much feed left.

You can't feed chickens like this anymore, you will be punished by God. How can those 40 chickens eat so much? In just over three days, they have eaten half of a stone of millet rice flour. If you keep raising them like this, what will happen when the chickens grow up?

It’s so big that it can’t cost more than ten kilo of grain?” Liu Xin’s mother said to Liu Xin because she felt sorry for the grain.

Modern [guinea fowl] need about 100 grams of feed a day, 40 of them are 4 kilograms a day, and millet accounts for 60% of the feed, 2.4 kilograms of millet a day, 30 kilograms of millet per stone, which can be fed for about 12.5 days.

In this way, to raise these chickens to adulthood and lay eggs, it takes more than seven stones of food in three months, which is worth about 900 Wen. A chicken is about two kilograms, and its value is only 30 Wen. If they are all fed with feed, because of the price of food in this era

It's too expensive and basically not profitable.

"Mom, these chickens are very important to me. They are not ordinary breeds. I will have to make a lot of money from them in the future.

Now I am wasting a lot of food. When I come up with a way to replace food in a while, I won’t use millet like this!" Liu Xin said.

"You are in charge of the house and you make your own decisions. Mom can only remind you. Mom has already agreed with Mrs. Cui that from now on she will stay at home and try not to go out. She will feed you chickens and wash and cook for everyone.

If you like to practice martial arts, just follow the young master to practice martial arts. You don't have to worry about the street stalls. Your eldest sister, younger sister, Qingyu, and Zhang Xiao are enough for me and you!" Liu Xin's mother said to him.

"Well, our farmyard is already under construction, so I'll have to keep an eye on it these days. If I need my little sister's help tomorrow, I'll ask her to follow me," Liu Xin said.

"You want my help, third brother, what can I do?" Liu Xiaomei couldn't help but ask after hearing what Liu Xin said.

"You'll know then!" Liu Xin said with a smile on his face.

After dinner, Liu Xin put the pig's head and pig waste into two large pots that Zhang Qingyu and her brother had washed, and added seasonings. The rest was their business.

When I returned to the house, I saw that each of the sleeping chicks was growing normally. One chick's wings began to become more discolored. In three days, they would have passed the chick stage and entered the juvenile stage.

The chicks' wings will begin to develop from the seventh day, and the down on their bodies will fade and new hair will grow, which will strengthen their ability to survive and adapt. Liu Xin no longer has to worry about them being cold, hungry, malnourished and having accidents every day.
