The most arrogant in history

Chapter 180: Youde’s resentment.

"What the hell……"

Ye Kun almost spat out a mouthful of blood, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "I told you to raise pigeons, not to eat them."

Shangguan Jifu frowned: "What's the point of raising pigeons if you don't eat them?"

"Pigeons can deliver letters within a thousand miles and arrive in one day. Have you heard of carrier pigeons?"

"Nonsense, pigeons are not parrots and can't talk, so how can they deliver messages?"

"Hey, Fourth Brother, it would be great if your brain was as powerful as your martial arts."

Ye Kun lost all his temper and started teaching from the beginning:

"Pigeons are released during the day and know how to return home at night. They can find their home within a thousand miles. For example, if you give me a pigeon and I encounter an emergency in Dongba County, I will write a few words on silk and tie it to the pigeon's leg. When the pigeon flies back and you see my letter, you will know my situation. Do you understand?"

The use of carrier pigeons to send messages did not exist in the country of Dading.

But in later generations, specially trained military pigeons were used to deliver messages and played an important role.

Shangguan Jifu understood, but still didn't care, and said with a smile: "Isn't it better if we have Pegasus to deliver the letter?"

"Fourth brother, if I was trapped in Jingzhou a few days ago, how could I send a letter by flying horse?" Ye Kun rolled his eyes:

"Carrier pigeons can pass through the enemy's rear, and their safety is even higher than that of Pegasus. In addition, the cost of sending messages by carrier pigeons is very low, and the speed is fast, so they can serve as a supplement to Pegasus's messages. Once a complete set of rules and regulations is established, and a complete communication network is established, with information encryption, this thing can play the same role as a telescope and influence the outcome of a war."

"What is information encryption? I don't understand..."

Shangguan Jifu was most afraid of trouble, so he said with a smile:

"There is a young widow in Tianmen County who makes a living by raising pigeons. I have called her to the county governor's mansion. Raising pigeons is her job. Brother Dalang, wait a moment. I will call Widow Li over. You can get closer to her slowly."

Ye Kun nodded.

Not long after, a woman in her twenties, of decent appearance, came in to pay her respects to Ye Kun and Shangguan Jifu.

Shangguan Jifu said, "Widow Li, Lord Ye also likes to raise pigeons, and he has something to ask you. You must serve Lord Ye well, or I will execute you without mercy!"

Widow Li was so frightened that she trembled and kowtowed, saying, "I obey your command."

"Fourth brother, don't be so fierce."

Ye Kun stood up and called Widow Li: "Sister-in-law Li, take me to visit your pigeon house."

Widow Li was trembling with fear and took Ye Kun to visit the pigeon house and her pigeons.

The pigeon house is located in a corner of the county magistrate's mansion, with three rooms, including Widow Li's dormitory.

Ye Kun looked around, sat down in Widow Li's dormitory, and talked about the story of the carrier pigeon.

Widow Li understood immediately and nodded:

"Don't worry, Lord Ye. The pigeons I raise will be able to find their home once they fly out, unless they are eaten by someone on the way."

"No, I need a complete system for raising pigeons, which means I need a lot of people, a lot of professionals like you."

Ye Kun thought for a moment and said, "I will build you a large pigeon house and give you seven or eight helpers. You can raise pigeons and train apprentices at the same time. Be careful to select some good pigeons and train them carefully. I will pay for all the expenses of raising pigeons."

Widow Li was startled and asked weakly, "Do we need to raise so many pigeons? I'm afraid Lord Shangguan won't agree."

"I will tell Lord Shangguan, don't worry. Just do as I say, and quickly."

Ye Kun nodded and brought Widow Li to see Shangguan Jifu, asking him to arrange a special pigeon loft and professional personnel.

Shangguan Jifu was too lazy to worry about it, so he ordered his men:

"According to Lord Ye's arrangement, we will allocate a large house to be used as a special pigeon loft. We will also find ten literate maids to serve Widow Li!"

Ye Kun smiled and said, "Give me another two hundred taels of silver as start-up capital. Let Sister-in-law Li be responsible for the purchase of pigeons and feed. Other expenses will be paid on a reimbursement basis. In addition, Sister-in-law Li's salary will be two taels of silver per month."

Shangguan Jifu was stunned and said with a wicked smile:

"Two taels of silver? Lord Ye, is Widow Li pretty and do you like her? If so, let her serve you tonight. I bought this widow, and I gave three taels of silver to the head of their clan, including all her pigeons."

This guy has no respect for women and made a joke in front of Widow Li.

Widow Li blushed, lowered her head, and dared not say a word.

These days, human life is not as valuable as a cow.

Women are even less valuable, they are just commodities in the eyes of men.

For Shangguan Jifu, he never considers the feelings of a commodity in whatever he does or says.

"Sir Shangguan, can you be more serious?" Ye Kun rolled his eyes:

"Sister-in-law Li is a talented person. We should respect her and treat her as a sister. When I set up the military pigeon system, you will know that Sister-in-law Li is as important as your generals Wang Meng and Huangfu Lin."

Shangguan Jifu smiled with a fake smile: "Okay, Lord Ye, slowly respect Sister-in-law Li. I'm waiting for good news from both of you."

This is not a serious matter!

Damn it, Ye Kun cursed in his heart and took Widow Li out.

Walking to a place where there were no people, Ye Kun smiled and said:

"Sister-in-law Li, don't take Shangguan Jifu's nonsense to heart. Once you have trained a few apprentices here, I will transfer you back to Dongba City."

"Master Ye, I dare not." Widow Li turned pale with fear.

"Don't be afraid, just do your work with peace of mind."

Ye Kun said a few words of comfort before leaving.

The next morning, Ye Kun left Tianmen County and returned to Pingye County.

I got home when it was almost dark, met my mother and Jiang Yourong, and had dinner together.

After dinner, Ye Kun asked about Jiang Yourong's health, touched her belly, and asked with a smile, "Is the baby well behaved?"

"Very well behaved." Jiang Yourong smiled and took Ye Kun's hand: "Husband, Youde has lost a lot of weight these days. If you are free tomorrow, go to the spinning mill to see her."

In Hirano County, the spinning workshop has been reopened and Youde is still in charge.

Ye Kun was shocked: "Why is Youde so thin? Is he sick?"

Yourong sighed, with a little resentment:

"I don't know either. I just saw that she was infatuated with you after she came back from Tianmen City with you last time. I guess she has something on her mind."

Ye Kun thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll go take a look now."

"Go ahead and comfort her more." Jiang Yourong nodded.

Ye Kun stood up and went to the spinning workshop next to the county government office.

Hirano Prefecture originally received a large number of refugees and was very crowded.

After Ye Kun took over Dongba County, he took all the refugees to Dongba County to cultivate the land. Many craftsmen were also taken away, so Pingye County is now empty.

The houses that previously housed the refugees have all been vacated, cleaned out, and other arrangements have been made.

The spinning workshop that Youde is in charge of is a large house with three entrances.

Of the one hundred spinning wheels that were previously installed, only thirty are currently installed, and production is carried out on a small scale.

When Ye Kun arrived, Youde was in a daze in his office.

Looking from the side, he has indeed lost some weight.

Under the light, her eyelashes are curved and she looks very pitiful.

"Moral."

Ye Kun felt a pain in his heart and walked in.

"Brother-in-law... Lord Ye!"

Youde was slightly startled and stood up.

"Girl, why are you calling me so strangely?"

Ye Kun smiled and took Youde's hand: "You seem unhappy. Are you dissatisfied with this spinning workshop?"

"No."

Youde's eyes turned red, and he lowered his head and said, "Master Ye is now a higher and higher official, do you still care about a little girl like me?"

"Silly girl, I know you are blaming me."

Ye Kun gently stroked Youde's back and said, "I will no longer be an official. I will resign and accompany you back to Caomiao Village. Okay?"

"Lie to me again."

Youde finally smiled and sighed, "It was great when we were in Caomiao Village. You still had time to teach me how to write..."

"I can teach you now."

Ye Kun sat down with Youde and whispered, "Youde, you know I have you in my heart. I just want to arrange your affairs when you are older."

Youde couldn't hold it in any longer, and threw himself into Ye Kun's arms, crying:

"Do you know how much I miss you? I miss you every day. I can't help thinking about you. I can't sleep. I can see you when I close my eyes..."

Ever since the last time he visited Tianmen City, Youde’s emotions have been out of control and have gotten out of control.

In the age of young children, love is the deepest and most genuine.

"Of course I know, that's why I came to see you."

Ye Kun felt very sorry for her and whispered in her ear, "I won't leave tonight. I will stay here with you. I will accompany you all night long."
