Chapter 379 Duanmuzhe
Muwuzhe patrolled the pasture arrogantly, watching the Hu slaves busy pouring fodder on the pasture, allowing the cattle, sheep and horses to come over to eat.
As long as he passed by those barbarian slaves, those people would lower their heads deeply, and at the same time their hands and feet would become faster, but they would not dare to look up at him.
Mu Wuzhe felt a sense of superiority in his heart, but he ignored them.
What qualifications do these unregistered Hunu have to talk to him?
At this time, I heard someone running over from a distance and shouting at the same time, "I'm not in charge..."
Muwuzhe was immediately furious. He whipped him and yelled, "What kind of wood steward? Where did the wood steward come from? You stupid Hu slave, call me Duanmu steward!"
When Mu Wuzhe registered, he felt that his name was too ridiculous and lost his identity. At the same time, in order to show that he had drawn a clear line with the past, he used his one-month supply of meat cakes to ask an old Confucian scholar in the school for help. Pick a name for yourself.
The old Confucian scholar ate the meat pie sent by Mu Wuzhe, turned over the scriptures with greasy hands, shook his head and said, "Duanmu, one of the seventy-two disciples of the sage Confucius, is good at cultivating goods. Now you are giving it to the Lord." The family raises cattle and sheep, and the name also has the character "wood" in it."
"It's better to take the surname Duanmu, without the word Wu, just leave the word "zhe", and call it Duanmuzhe. Since you are a naturalized person, you can be regarded as Mingyili, so you can call it "Guihan".
After listening to the old Confucian scholar’s explanation, Mu Wuzhe learned that his last name was the same as that of Confucius’ disciples. He was overjoyed and promised that his supply of meat cakes would be delivered next month.
Finally, I quietly asked the old Confucian scholar, is there any female barbarian worker in the workshop that you like? If there is one, he can help build bridges.
At any rate, he used to be the leader of the clan, and now he is the dog manager of the ranch. Although he dare not touch the Han female workers, he still has this respect with the Hu female workers.
And I don’t know how many female Hu workers want to marry a Han man.
What does it matter if you are older?
You don’t know how to love others until you are older!
That's what the female workers in the workshop say anyway.
Unexpectedly, the old Confucian scholar immediately became furious after hearing this. He grabbed the broom and pulled it over. At the same time, he yelled, "Hey! You are a slave of the Hu family. How can the Hu girl get into my eyes? I treat me like you." Is it a beast? Get out, get out!"
So Mu Wuzhe was kicked out.
Then he suddenly changed into Duanmu Zhe, a good son of the Han family.
So he hated being called "nobody in charge" the most. When he heard the barbarian slave in front of him yelling like this, he was so angry that he whipped him several times.
“Yes, yes, Duanmu is in charge, I made a mistake…”
This barbarian slave did not dare to hide, so he could only stand and be whipped.
“Say, what’s the matter?”
Duanmuzhe also knew the propriety and knew that it was okay to hit, but he could not injure someone for no reason, let alone kill him.
If he had been in the mountains before, he would have beaten this ignorant Hu'er to death on the spot and thrown him down the valley.
“Huo Jianling sent someone to tell you that he wanted you to come over.”
As soon as Hu'er said this, he was so angry that Duanmuzhe almost slapped him again.
“Why didn’t you tell me earlier! I’ll take care of you when you come back!”
Duanmuzhe glared at him angrily, but did not dare to stay for a moment. He turned his horse's head and ran towards a certain direction of the pasture.
“I have seen Magistrate Li and Magistrate Huo.”
Duanmuzhe arrived at the ground and saw not only Huo Yi but also Li Qiu. He felt a little nervous at the moment: Could it be that... something big is going to happen?
Thinking like this, his movements of hands and feet were not slow, and he quickly knelt down and saluted.
There is absolutely no majestic appearance outside.
“Come on, get up, I have something to ask you.”
"yes."
Duanmuzhe stood up and stood upright, while thinking about whether he had done anything irregular in the past few days.
Thinking about it, I just whipped that Rimai Mouxi half to death, which was a bit harsh, but wasn't this person the one who was told to pay close attention to by the superiors?
If it weren’t for this, there would be only one thing left.
That is, I have recently secretly taken a liking to a Han woman in a workshop. Although she is a bit older, I somehow think she is prettier than others.
It’s just that I never told anyone about it because I was afraid of being laughed at.
Did someone hear me talking in my sleep?
While Duanmuzhe was thinking wildly, he only heard Huo Yi asking from above, "Let me ask you, how many of the dogs in this pasture are of great use? And how many people are there who know how to handle the dogs?"
Although the people staying in Nanxiang are headed by Li Qiu, there are usually people in charge of the ranch, workshop and even the mine.
As the owner of the ranch, Huo Yi is naturally the one to ask questions about the ranch.
"Returning to Huo Jianling, there are fifty-four dogs in total, and there are ten people who can command the dogs."
“So few?”
Before Huo Yi spoke, Li Qiu frowned.
Hearing this, Duanmuzhe immediately broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly explained, "What Magistrate Li doesn't know is that although every household in this workshop, ranch and mine raises dogs, dogs that can be used for great purposes are not easy to come by. "
“Not only do we have to carefully select the ones that can be used, but we also have to teach them to be obedient. This takes a lot of effort, and most of them will be eliminated during this period. Therefore, it is really rare to find a good dog that can be used in a big way.”
“And…and…”
Duanmuzhe was a little hesitant when it came to the latter part.
“And what? Just say it.”
Huo Yi also frowned and said in a harsh tone.
He is in charge of this ranch. If there is any problem, he will not be able to escape from it. So Duanmuzhe's tone seems to have some hidden agenda, so he naturally wants to find out.
"Yes. That's it. The master asked the villain to be the dog's steward. He originally wanted the villain to choose some people who can call the dog at will. So the villain didn't dare to ask for many people, and he only had ten people. This There are not enough manpower, so there are not many good dogs that can be trained..."
Huo Yi and Li Qiu looked at each other.
"You mean, if you are given enough manpower, you can train more good dogs? Yes or no?" Li Qiu asked, "Tell me, how many manpower do you need?"
When Duanmu Zhe heard this, he suddenly felt a little panicked. He raised his head in confusion and stammered, "Back to Mr. Li, there are quite a lot of dogs in Nanxiang. There are only ten people, and we have to choose dogs. I have to train dogs again, so I’m a little busy.”
“You just said do you need more manpower?”
Li Qiu had no intention of listening to him.
"Yes...yes. It would be better if we have more people."
“It will be done, with your word it will be done.”
