In April, Mayi is about to enter summer, and several heavy rains have fallen. Yunnei Ranch, located in the northeast of Mayi, is full of life with the gentle summer wind, swaying green grass.●⌒
On the north side of the pasture, a stone castle stands on a hill, surrounded by houses and stables, surrounding it like stars holding the moon.
The "rebellion" had not been long ago, but to the people at the racecourse, it seemed like a long time had passed. Many people had begun to forget that both the castle and the racecourse were surnamed Shi.
In fact, it is not forgetting, but being good at forgetting.
Because now, both this unique courtyard and the entire racecourse have changed owners.
The new owner's surname is Li, and his given name is Po. He is a half-year-old boy and has not yet taken a given name.
But when he became the horse commander of Yunnei Ranch, no one dared to have any objections, because at that time, the murderous Mayi cavalry had not gone far.
Grandpa Li Jing's orders will also be faithfully implemented.
When the cavalry retreated and suffered heavy casualties, the people of Yunnei Ranch calmly accepted this reality and tried hard to forget everything that had happened before, including the name Shi Qianqian.
To everyone's relief, the new ranch owner did not make any more troubles. Instead, he went around the horse farm and found a few old men who herded horses to fill the previously vacant horse farm official positions.
This move obviously calmed the hearts of the racecourse.
The new horse order seems to be easy to talk about. The people who herded horses before were still herding horses, and the people who were in charge of the stables still stayed in the stables. The previous account books were not scrutinized. Most things were business as usual.
This also prompted everyone to quickly forget everything about the Shi family and start to welcome a new life.
However, many people died, and the racecourse was short of manpower.
Therefore, some new people were added later, most of them were transferred from other ranches. The new horse order also recruited many men with swords and arrows on their backs. It was obvious at a glance that they were military figures, and they were quickly filled.
Responsibilities of guarding the racecourse.
Then, Xin Ma Ling went to Heng'an. It is said that General Han, the Hen'an town general who turned his face as if he were flipping through a book, sent Xin Ma Ling out of the house with a smile on his face...
Everything shows that the storm has passed and everyone can live with a little peace of mind.
Although most of the people in the racecourse are good at riding and shooting, and are fierce and ferocious in nature, there are some barbarians among them who regard dying in battle as an honor.
But to be honest, no one wants to engage in a head-on confrontation with the army, which is tantamount to seeking death.
Generally speaking, Li Maling was not too meddlesome, and he only had one younger sister among his close relatives, who was still young and completely different from the previous historians.
In the past, Yunnei Racecourse was almost the private property of the Shi family, and Shi Qianqian and his children and grandchildren talked about everything at the racecourse.
But now, the ranch under Li Maling's rule finally looks a bit like public property, but this is reasonable. Li Maling is said to be the confidant of the county prince, and he once served as the prince's bodyguard. Naturally, he is not the same as Shi Qianqian.
will be equivalent.
The Yunnei Racecourse has a radius of hundreds of miles, and has more than a thousand war horses, as well as countless other cattle and sheep.
Therefore, the Yunnei Racecourse is roughly divided into three parts. Each herdsman has his own area to live. To manage such a large area, the labor and effort is almost the same as governing a county.
The population is relatively small, but horses, cattle and sheep can all be called its Dingkou.
However, since Li Maling moved into the castle, he rarely appeared in front of people except at the beginning, when he summoned everyone and said a few words, "Don't think wildly and work hard."
However, it can also be guessed that the third wife of the Grand Master's family is recovering from her injuries here. If Li Maling dares to ignore her and is busy with the racecourse, he will be like a ghost.
Later, some rumors became a bit scary. It was said that Li Maling followed General Li, traveling thousands of miles a day, all the way from Canghe to Yunnei, unknowingly picked off Shi Qianqian's head, and then left calmly.
Naturally, no one will tell such rumors openly, but it is inevitable that they will be whispered about in private.
Although most of the rumors are unsubstantiated, as long as everyone is interested, the rumors will become more and more distorted. From the time the rumors appear, it will not take long for Li Maling and the third wife to be almost like monsters in the rumors.
The less often Li Maling appeared, the more mysterious he became, and in the end, the label of eating human flesh and drinking human blood was all over the place.
This thing is a bit inexplicable, but it is very popular among the people where gods and ghosts are very popular...
At this time, Li Po didn't know that he had become the talk of the racecourse people after dinner, and he was quickly getting closer to the characters in the Chinese chat room.
He still stayed in the castle honestly, enjoying the fruits of victory quite comfortably.
He has little interest in the management of racecourses.
However, when troubled times came, he was still urged to do some serious things.
For example, Li Wu and others were driven to the racecourse with their heads down. After they became the guards of the racecourse, he asked them to find some relatives and friends to work at the racecourse.
As for the treatment, it's easy to say that I don't feel bad for selling my father's land. Most of the family assets left by Shi Qianqian were taken away by the grandfather, but he was still generous and left some behind.
This is Li Po's capital. As long as he comes to us, he will immediately sign up for the military at the racecourse, and his salary will be huge. He doesn't have to raise weapons and horses by himself, we will take care of it here.
Not to mention food and accommodation. If you bring a whole family, that's a bit much, but if you only bring your children and wife, fine, our racecourse is lacking in popularity.
Needless to say, Li Wu and the others looked stupid, but their popularity was not low. Soon, people came to the racecourse one after another, and within half a month, dozens of people gathered.
But they were all from this family, and Li Po didn't feel at ease, so he sent people to Mayi, found Shi Dashi and two idiots, and brought in a group of Mayi hunters.
Are they willing to come? Then they must be willing.
Mansion soldiers seem to be a good thing, but for these relatively poor hunters, they also pose a considerable burden, and the shadow of labor has always lingered.
Nowadays, once the military status of the horse farm is registered, it is very different. Not only can you get money, but you don't have to organize food and accommodation yourself, and you don't have to go hunting in the mountains. What a great thing.
By the time Shi Da Shi Er brought a group of hunters with their families over, before April came, Li Po had quickly gathered more than a hundred people.
This is how it is these days. If you have territory and food, people will immediately flock to you.
At this time, Li Po felt more at ease. No matter what the postman at the racecourse wanted to do, he could just wave his hand.
The food should be eaten little by little, and the work should be done little by little.
