Chapter 25 King Wei, this is castrating a pig

 "This is impossible!"

"Shaofu, I spend a lot of money raising chickens and ducks every month, how can I get it back!"

Li Shimin's voice blurted out and he looked at Wang De.

"Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely true, I dare not hide anything!"

Noticing Li Shimin's gaze, Wang De quickly spoke.

"Let's go!"

"Get ready, go to Prince Wei's Mansion to have a look!"

Li Shimin nodded. He still believed in Wang De, but at this moment he was unavoidably curious. Now that the government affairs were almost settled, he did not suppress his curiosity, but went directly to see for himself.

"Okay, okay, Your Majesty!"

Wang De was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly.

Soon Li Shimin was ready.

He took Wang De and a few guards and left the palace.

This time, he did not bring Qin Qiong and Yuchi Gong.

Zhuque Road.

"Wang De, you said that Fourteen has not been at home these days?"

Li Shimin spoke with curiosity.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"A few days ago, His Highness King Wei borrowed three hundred guan from His Highness King Jin and bought a manor in the north of the city. His Highness King Wei has been staying there these days."

"I even bought a few pigs yesterday!"

Wang De nodded and slowly explained the situation.

Even the money Li Ming borrowed that day was revealed.

"Zhu, are you fourteen and still planning to raise pigs?"

Li Shimin couldn't help but shake his head when he heard Li Zhi borrowing money.

As for Li Ming borrowing money, he was not too surprised.

Raising so many chickens and ducks, although Li Shimin didn't know where Li Ming's food and grass came from, the consumption was definitely not small, let alone a hundred guans, maybe 500 guans were not enough.

Although King Wei was canonized, even King Cao was just canonized this year, not to mention that King Wei was only a few months ago, and his salary has not been paid yet, so he must have no money.

As for borrowing Li Zhi, that's more normal.

Li Ming has the best relationship with Li Zhi, so Li Zhi is the only one who can borrow her.

Instead, Li Shimin became interested in Li Ming buying pigs.

Originally, after Li Ming made the explosives, Li Shimin was very tolerant and expectant of Li Ming.

I was tinkering with it before, thinking I was dealing with some kind of terrifying existence.

Even Kong Yingda was turned off.

But I didn’t expect to raise chickens and ducks.

Nowadays even pigs appear.

This makes me angry and funny.

I didn’t know how to react for a moment.

"Let's go to the north of the city!"

With his thoughts flowing, Li Shimin headed directly outside the city.

The doubts in my heart became more intense.

Li Ming did borrow money, but it was just money, and there was no record of purchasing grain and grass.

This is undoubtedly even stranger.

Several people left the city gate and headed towards the north of the city.

Li Ming's manor is still far away from Chang'an City.

Setting off at noon, more than an hour later, Li Shimin and others saw Li Ming's new manor.

And in the manor at this time.

Li Ming didn't know that Li Er had arrived.

He did have someone buy some pigs back yesterday.

As for the purpose, of course it is also breeding.

If chickens and ducks are just supplements, then raising pigs is the real way to strengthen the country.

And although there is already a pig raising industry in this era.

Starting from the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, and gradually improved, pig farming has now become relatively popular.

But to say how advanced it is is naturally nonsense.

Today's breeding is still in the stage of stocking and raising together.

Although we already have castrated pigs.

The method of castrating pigs is not very good.

As a result, many pigs will die after being castrated, so that most people will not resort to castrating pigs. Except for a few noble families who do this, farmers do not have this habit.

More importantly, in this era, due to the majority of consumption of human and animal feces and imperfect cooking techniques, pork has a strong smell and is considered inferior meat.

He has full control.

The popularity of pork can undoubtedly provide more protein than chickens and ducks, making the people of the Tang Dynasty stronger.

It is also a disguised way of improving national strength.

Especially when he has books such as "Postpartum Care of Sows" and "Top Ten Techniques for Castrating Pigs", Li Ming would be crazy if he didn't have any thoughts.

There was no venue before.

In addition, the locust plague was the first to bear the brunt, so he did not consider it for the time being.

Now that there is enough space in the manor in the north of the city, the chickens and ducks are gradually getting on the right track. Even if the locust plague breaks out, I'm afraid the impact will not be too great, so he naturally started to take action.

Of the three hundred guan, there were about 20 guan left, so Li Ming immediately bought a dozen piglets.

In the small courtyard.

Looking at the piglet tied up in front of him, Li Ming couldn't help but mourn in silence.

As a middle-aged man raised his knife, a small thing came out of the piglet's body.

What was left was the shrill scream of the little piggy.

At this moment, this sound can be heard clearly even though it is thousands of meters away.

As soon as Li Shimin and others approached the manor, they heard the shrill scream of the little piglet.

This kind of sound can't help but make people shiver.

Li Shimin couldn't help but stop abruptly.

The people around me all looked a little strange and a little strange.

"Well, Your Majesty, how about I go and inform His Royal Highness the King of Guards first?"

After a while, he found that Li Shimin was not moving, and Wang Dexiao spoke with some embarrassment.

And listening to Wang De's words, Li Shimin felt like he didn't know what to say at this moment.

Finally he opened his mouth and nodded.

Wang De quickly ran towards the manor.

Li Shimin, on the other hand, was waiting outside, his face changing in waves.

The guards behind him also had some changes, but they didn't dare to say anything at this moment.

And Wang De soon came to the manor.

Upon learning that Li Shimin had arrived, the servants in the manor were startled and quickly went to the front to notify Li Ming.

In the small courtyard.

Li Ming was observing the "master" he invited at work, and was shocked when he suddenly received the news of Li Er's arrival.

"You mean my father has arrived?"

With a bit of confusion and a bit of surprise.

"Yes, Your Highness, Eunuch Wang is at the door. You'd better hurry up and greet His Majesty!"

The maid nodded and spoke anxiously. Her eyes glanced at a little pig that was being carried up again not far away, and she couldn't help but feel a tremor.

"Okay, I will go immediately!"

Li Ming responded, although he was confused, but at this moment Li Shimin arrived, he did not dare to neglect.

I quickly tidied myself up and trotted out.

As for the castration, he forgot to stop it at this moment.

Without Li Ming's call to stop, the castration would naturally continue.

The piggy's screams soon started again.

Just this time, Wang De at the door, as well as Li Shimin and others not far away, couldn't help but beat their brows again.
