The land in Luoyang is expensive, and the land outside Luoyang is also expensive. Take the farm, which has been renamed "Li's", which is close to the mountains and rivers and covers an area of 100 mu. If it is sold in the toothshop, I'm afraid it can't be bought without 100000 liang of silver. I have to say that Aunt Lin Wanjin is really generous enough to give her dowry to her nephew without hesitation. It's impossible to change it to someone else.

Standing under the memorial archway at the gate of Zhuangzi, the straight channel leads to the final center of the farm. A river running from east to West divides the farm into North and South halves. The road almost perpendicular to the river divides the farm into southeast, northeast, southwest and northwest together with the river.

In addition to these four pieces, the one in the center is the most important area of the whole farm and the main house of Li Luoyang. At the beginning, the Lin family excavated a river around the main house to form an area surrounded by water. If they want to enter this area, they can only pass through two suspension bridges. Once the suspension bridge is lifted, they can only cross the small river with a width of more than 30 feet by boat or swimming.

Roads running through the north and South and rivers running through the East and West naturally divide the farm. There is a mountain forest in the northwest. Rammed earth walls are built on the top of the mountain forest. Next to the rammed earth walls is the territory of others. Therefore, half of the hillside in the northwest of Li's farm is planted with trees, and the gentle area is ordered by Li Luoyang to plant fruit trees, It can be watered by drawing water from the river flowing from west to East.

The terrain in the southwest is very flat. Earlier, it has been opened up as a good field. Irrigation ditches have been dug to grow grain and vegetables. The fertilizer needed is taken from the animals raised in the northwest. It is also a green and pollution-free circular ecological agriculture. Therefore, Li Luoyang has basically not made much changes to this large area in the West, The real change is in these two areas in the East.

The northeast is positioned as a printing area by Li Luoyang, mainly responsible for the production of paper, ink and printing, while the southeast is used as a wine making area. The two areas are naturally separated by small rivers and do not interfere with each other.

The water needed by the printing factory is directly taken from the river, while the need for wine making is solved by drilling a well. Li Luoyang has tasted the new well water and tastes good. There is no problem making wine.

Most of the slaves bought from Cen Laoliu are arranged in the West. These slaves basically have not read books or mastered any skills, so it is not a waste to graze, look after fruit trees and plant crops. Although the trees and grain produced in the village can not meet the needs of papermaking and wine making, But at least the livestock, vegetables and fruits raised can ensure the consumption of the owner. Li Luoyang thinks this scale is enough. As for the future, we have to take a step by step.

Once the recruited craftsmen want to work in the two east areas of the farm, they must sign a confidentiality agreement and abide by the system.

Both the northeast and southeast are separated by wooden wallboards. Craftsmen in one process cannot enter the next process at will. This is designed by Li Luoyang to ensure that secrets are not leaked. Although such a dense partition wall will give people a sense of pressure, it is the only way to protect business secrets as long as possible.

After investing a lot of money, the production area in the East has been completed and the workers are still busy, which is the living area of the construction workers. In order to reduce unnecessary troubles, Li Luoyang direct construction workers to build a three-story building in order to save land as much as possible to accommodate enough workers. After all, Li Luoyang will ask them to bring all the people in important positions to the manor, so that these workers do not need to leave the manor often and are easy to control.

Of course, in the links that need to be kept secret but have little technical content, Li Luoyang will use slaves. Those who have been sold out to him are the best to manage. Xiao Si'er will supervise these people to work every day. After that, he will directly send them to a separate area to eat and sleep without any contact with the outside world.

In the past, the only real building in the farm was the area of the current main house. The whole East was newly built. Originally, those places were also farmland. Only because Lin Wanjin didn't want to operate, the slaves also worked lazily. Basically, they didn't produce anything. It's a new look. Li Luoyang hasn't had time to go to the West, A day is over.

"I'll stay here tonight." Li Luoyang gave the order, and Xiao Si'er and others began to be busy. Li Chengzhen followed Zhou Lin to the printing factory area in the northeast. Dong Ming is now half a brewing expert, and went to the brewing area in the southeast.

Because the area of the northeast is twice as large as that of the southeast, both carpenter's workshop and blacksmith's workshop are located in the northeast. After all, blacksmiths and carpenters are generally not needed as long as the brewing equipment is complete. On the other hand, it is often necessary to knock on the printing side.

Through a suspension bridge with only two carriages in parallel, Li Luoyang and others finally entered the main house area.

Compared with the great changes in the East, the changes in the main house are not big. It is still a courtyard with three in and three out, plus the four side courtyards and four corner three storey towers around the outside, which is the whole of the main house. The three in and three out courtyard is where the master lives, the four side courtyards are where the servants and caretakers live, and the tower is used for warning. After all, this is not Luoyang City. Once important people live here, they always have to arrange some night watchmen on the tower, so that the master can sleep at ease

The Lin family has never been careless in these places. After all, they are rich families that have lasted for hundreds of years. These deposits are not available to those who are rich.

However, all these disappeared with the withdrawal of the Lin family. Not only was the tower empty, but also the four side courtyards outside were quiet and invisible.

If you want to enter the house, you need to go through the south side yard first. At this time, the sun sinks in the West. The unpopular yard gives people a gloomy feeling. If there are not many people, you may not have the courage to enter.

Fortunately, Li Luoyang never believes in ghosts and gods. Besides, there is Wu Xinyi around him.

Everyone walked into the yard together. Li Luoyang looked at it, pointed to the houses on both sides of the yard and said to Xiao Hui, "in the future, select some people with good martial arts and innocent family to live in this yard for the convenience of practicing martial arts."

"Yes, master." Xiaohui took the order and said he had written it down.

"You still have to choose those who have martial arts? Don't you know martial arts yourself?" Wu Xinyi whispered aside.

"That's two different things. You can't be a thief. You want me, the master of the house, to do it myself?"
