Shennong Sequence

Chapter 14 Commander, Law Department, Logistics Department, Agriculture Department, and the Three Giants of the Guard

"Besides, if we overwork those war horses and make them skinny, we will be held responsible..."

"Also, I brought you lunch this morning because I wanted to give you a lecture."

"When you eat tonight, just go to the kitchen in front and get your meals. I will definitely make sure you have enough meat to eat next time you see it..."

After listening to a lot of words, Zhao Yun came to a conclusion that was absurd.

The reason for feeding people is to prevent them from secretly eating the food of the war horses...

In this world, horses live better than humans!
"Manager Sun is right. We understand. Also, here is 160 coins from the horse manure. Please decide what to do with it."

Butcher Liu put the money in his pocket on the table and waited for Old Man Sun to distribute it.

Working in this stable, one person has to take care of about ten to twenty war horses, and it is extremely tiring to do everything from washing the horses, brushing the horses, shoveling the manure, feeding the horses, letting them air out, trimming the horses' hooves, etc.

The two apprentices in front couldn't stand it anymore and would rather join the army than stay in the stable and continue raising horses.

It can be seen that raising horses is not an easy job.

Therefore, everyone should take a share of this extra income, otherwise, there will be rebellion...

Old Man Sun stroked his beard and said:
"According to the rules, I will take 6 portions, and each of you will get 2 portions. Next time when you sell horse manure, you can just take your portion and leave the rest to me."

"Also, hurry up and eat. After dinner, I will teach you how to prepare horse food. As for the evening meal, you two will prepare it, and I will watch over you."

"There's also a saying that goes, 'A horse cannot grow fat without night grass.' I have to get up and feed it again in the middle of the night... But, there's been a ghost in the backyard recently, so I'll be the one getting up and feeding it these few nights. You guys should go to bed early at night."

"By the way, in the next few nights, if you hear someone knocking on the door or calling you outside the door, don't say anything, don't bother, don't respond, just cover your head with the quilt and sleep soundly."

"Also, if any of you live close to the guard post, you can go back directly at night. There are no restrictions here..."

Butcher Liu had no way back.

Zhao Yun doesn't want to go back for the time being.

Then the three of them ate.

When he took a short rest after dinner, Zhao Yun took his share of the pitiful money back to his own room and tidied it up.

"The bed is still short of bedding and quilts. After I learn how to feed horses from Old Man Sun, I'll need to go to the warehouse to get a set when I'm free in the afternoon..."

Zhao Yun sorted out the things in the house a little bit, then walked out of the house, and waited with Butcher Liu for Old Man Sun to come out, and explained to them how to mix the horse feed, how to feed the horses, and so on...

They were busy until mid-afternoon, when the three people in the No. 14 stable finally had some free time to rest for a while.

Moreover, Butcher Liu did not have any quilts or bedding in his room, so he had to go to the warehouse with Zhao Yun, get the bedding and other items, and then return to the No. 14 stable.

In the evening, Old Man Sun stood by and watched, while Zhao Yun and Liu the Butcher began to mix feed and feed the 40 war horses, and then cleaned the horse manure and the stables, making them sweat all over. It was not until it was almost dark that they sold the horse manure.

After the two came back, they took a hot shower and then walked to the cafeteria in front to eat.

A horse is more valuable than a man.

Usually the horses eat first, and then the people eat.

At the same time, the logistics restaurant also reserved meals for the people in the stables, which was obviously to take special care of these people in the stables.

I was afraid that the people in the stable would be hungry and would compete with the horses for food...

While the two were having dinner in the restaurant, Li Zhiguang, whom Zhao Yun had said would nag tonight, came over.

"Hey, Brother Zhao, I heard your story. Captain Niu is really a scoundrel! But it's not bad to come to our logistics department. At least you don't have to worry about food and drink. Just bear it slowly."

Zhao Yun smiled bitterly. "I have offended a captain right after I came in. I am so unlucky... Who knows if he will cause trouble for me in the future."

However, if Zhao Yun had not taken the bait set by Cheng Xiaoqi yesterday and reduced his family's taxes by half, he would have had to be sent to the army with his mother, which would have been even more life-threatening.

In comparison, the current situation is much better.

Zhao Yun then asked:
"Brother Li, I saw Cheng Xiaoqi before. He was extremely strong. Does he have any special training methods?"

"I wonder if our logistics department also has such a secret manual for cultivation? I also want to learn some real skills!"

In addition, Zhao Yun also spent a whole day thinking about the secret book.

Although Captain Niu had ordered that no one was allowed to teach him martial arts, when Cheng Xiaoqi put him in the logistics department, he did not tell anyone else directly!

Maybe you can use this time to quickly learn one or two secrets.

At that time, I will see how to record the secret book on the yellow cloth, and then continue to become stronger...

Li Zhiguang thought for a moment and said:
"Brother Zhao, you just arrived at our guard station. Let me first tell you about the general situation of our guard station."

"Among those military leaders, above the small flags is the general flag, above the general flag is the centurion, above the centurion is the thousand-man army, and above the thousand-man army is the commander, and this commander is the highest official in this garrison."

"But in this garrison, the second most powerful ones are not the thousand-householders, but the monks accompanying the army in the Daofa Division."

"There are usually only one or two cultivators in the garrison. There may be Taoists, Buddhists, Confucianists, martial artists, yin and yang practitioners, vertical and horizontal practitioners, formation practitioners, legalists, Mohists, Gongshu practitioners, etc...."

"And the third most powerful person is the boss of our Logistics Department!"

"Moreover, the head of our Logistics Department is usually a cultivator from a farming family. Of course, if this cultivator from a farming family is not too strong, other people can also be in charge of the Logistics Department. However, cultivators from farming families are also people with great power in this guard post..."

"So, the captain Niu you offended is not a big deal in our logistics department. The soldiers can't get involved at all. You can rest assured in the logistics department."

Li Zhiguang said here.

A smile broke out on Zhao Yun's face.

Old man Sun also said something similar.

As long as he works hard, Old Man Sun guarantees that he will not be bullied by outsiders in the horse prison!

Li Zhiguang then continued:
“But the other thing you mentioned about practicing martial arts, including the inherited secrets of the military family, is not easy for us in the Logistics Department to learn... At least we need to get the approval of the centurions before we are allowed to teach them.

So you can’t go down this road.”
