Chapter 336 Li Tai loses weight
The news that the old Cheng family bought a lot of sows also spread to the homes of many old generals. Niu Jinda and other generals who were close to Cheng Yaojin came to see what the old Cheng family was up to. .

Cheng Yaojin is in a very good mood these days, and personally entertained the generals at home.

Unseal the spirits and drink to your heart's content.

The generals chatted about the scenery of the year.

Talking about the blood of the year, holding a sword and starting to learn from each other.

All of a sudden, the whole Cheng family was surrounded by demons dancing wildly.

Jingyang
Li Tai helped Li Zheng pick up eggs at the farm, and there were thousands of eggs in each basket.

"Tell me why the hens in your village are so diligent in laying eggs."

Li Zheng picked up the eggs and said, "That's because we have good feed and a good environment here, and the hens will lay eggs as soon as they are in a good mood."

"Really? Since when a hen lays eggs has something to do with the chicken's mood." Li Tai was so tired that he sat on the sidelines, wearing a coarse short jacket and not at all what a prince should be. On the streets of Chang'an, when Li Tai yelled that he was the king of Wei, the onlookers would probably regard him as a lunatic.

Li Tai stood up and said, "I'm going to rest for a while."

This break went straight to the end of picking eggs.

Walking out of the chicken shed, I saw Li Tai sitting on the pile of wood.

Li Zheng handed him the water bag and said, "His Royal Highness, you need to exercise more."

"sports?"

"It's just running more and sweating more." Li Zheng took the water bag that Li Tai handed back and said, "Being too fat is not a good thing. His Royal Highness Wei Wang is still young, but the older you are, the more problems caused by obesity. There will be many."

Li Tai got down from the wood pile, "Okay! Listen to you! Exercise more, you are a miracle doctor."

Looking at Li Tai's expression, something seemed wrong.

"His Royal Highness, do you have something on your mind?"

Li Tai stretched his limbs and said, "I'm a little tired. I don't want to go back to Chang'an these days, and I want to live with you."

Li Zheng nodded and said: "It turns out that His Royal Highness King Wei regards my place as a place to reconcile his mood."

Li Tai smiled and said: "That's right, change your mood, now think about how clever you were when you refused to be an official, I'm a little tired of the factional struggles in the court, and I'm also a little tired of the intrigue of those people below, you said a group of people squeezed out Their heads want to climb up, they don't know that just above the heights are single-plank bridges and mountains of knives and seas of fire."

Li Zheng also said: "People always want to go up, fame and fortune, Jinshi and national history, this is the dream of many men."

"You don't have this dream." Li Tai said looking at Li Zheng.

Li Zheng said: "Although most people's dreams are not suitable for me, I have a higher dream than theirs."

Li Tai casually picked a tomato from the field and ate it, "Could it be that you want to be a king with a different surname?"

"His Royal Highness the King of Wei thinks highly of me. My dream is special. Life is not easy. Why not let everyone live a better life? Born on this land, the land under my feet nurtured me and watched me grow , I am also an ambitious person, first let myself earn a lot of money, and then let the big guys earn more money, and run towards the road to wealth together."

Li Tai smiled disdainfully, "After all, you are still doing it for money."

Li Zheng nodded and said, "It's simple, right, but it's very real."

Li Tai lived in Jingyang for several days.

In the morning, Li Zheng was waving a fan and cooking tea eggs in a small clay stove and said, "His Royal Highness Wei Wang still has two rounds."

Li Tai, who was running around the horse pen, was out of breath.

"Hurry up! If it's too late, I'll ask my dad to cook for you!"

Li Tai thought of Li Zheng's father Li Daxiong's dark cooking, ran nine laps on his little thick legs, supported the horse pen and said, "No! I can't do it."

Li Zheng ate the tea eggs and said, "There is still the last lap."

Li Tai gritted his teeth and ran around again, "Let's do it now."

"There's still one lap left?" Li Zheng said.

Li Tai said with a pale face: "You just said it was the last lap, why is there another lap now?"

Carefully peeling the eggshell of the tea eggs, Li Zheng said, "I mean, there is still one more lap after this last lap."

Li Tai yelled and scolded: "I have already run ten laps, aren't you bullying an honest person?"

Handing the peeled tea eggs to Li Tai, Li Zheng shook the fan in his hand and said, "I'm just kidding, His Royal Highness Wei Wang will take two more steps next time, if you take a break after a long-distance run, it will be quite uncomfortable to get up the next day. "

"I can't walk anymore, let me sit for a while." Li Tai gasped for sweat, "The weight loss you said is too painful."

Li Zheng poured himself a cup of tea leisurely and said, "Take it as a cure, now don't worry about all kinds of problems when you get older."

Li Yifu came with the brochure and said: "Your Majesty, now there are more than [-] eggs, [-] chicks, and [-] sows."

Listening to Li Yifu's words, the scale of farming in Jingyang County is not very large according to the current situation, and it is enough to cope with himself.

To expand the breeding industry, more land is needed, and the land in Jingyang is not enough right now.

After thinking for a while, Li Zheng asked, "How much do you think a tea egg should be sold for?"

"This..." Li Yifu thought about it and said, "If you have half a catty of tea and a pot of eggs...however, it will cost thirty cents a piece."

Li Zheng also thought about it and said, "Five cents a piece, it doesn't need to be too expensive, half a catty of tea leaves can cook tea eggs several times."

Li Yifu nodded slightly, and wrote down Li Zheng's request.

"Have all the meat and vegetables from the Longwu Army been delivered?"

Li Yifu replied: "According to the request of the county lord, all have been sent over, and they are all fresh on the same day."

"How many adult pigs can be slaughtered?"

"There are more than 300 adult pigs."

Glancing at Li Tai, who was still dying of exhaustion, Li Zheng said to Li Yifu: "Kill five pigs, marinate them and make them into braised pork and sell them in Jingyang's wine shop. The aunts in the village know how to make braised pork." .”

"Understood." Li Yifu wrote down his request.

"As for the tea eggs, they cost five cents a piece. The tea leaves don't have to be very good." Li Zheng thought for a moment and added, "Leave [-] eggs to hatch chicks, and sell [-] tea eggs. Give it to the village."

Li Yifu wrote down Li Zheng's request again and asked, "Is there any order from the county magistrate?"

"Tell Xu Jingzong that there are eggs for extra meals at the road construction site today."

"Okay." Li Yifu wrote down these requirements and left.

Li Tai saw everything in his eyes and said: "You have used up so many eggs in the end, it seems that so many hens that lay eggs don't lay eggs for you."

"His Royal Highness Wei Wang, this statement is wrong, and the account cannot be calculated like this."

"How else can it be calculated?"

"After the hens are familiar with the environment, they will only lay more and more eggs. After laying eggs today, the hens will lay eggs tomorrow. The hatched chicks will pick out the hens and lay eggs together. This is not a simple addition and subtraction. , the benefits are multiplied.”

Li Zheng said patiently to Li Tai: "In the future, we will only have more and more eggs in Jingyang, and the scale will become larger and larger."

After thinking about it carefully, Li Tai sighed: "Then your children in Jingyang will have eggs every day in the future?"

"Yes."

Thinking of this, Li Tai was a little annoyed, "To tell you the truth, it was actually not easy for me to eat eggs for a meal when I was a child. Usually, there were eggs that were shared among brothers and sisters. How can they eat one egg for each person now? It's just one pot."

"You can only eat more if you live a long time. His Royal Highness still needs to focus on losing weight."

Li Tai was a little unconvinced, "You, Li Zheng, practiced Tai Chi early in the morning, why does this king risk his life and run around?"

"Because His Royal Highness Wei Wang is too fat, you can also play Tai Chi with me when His Royal Highness Wei Wang loses weight."

"Is this a fat problem?" Li Tai said, "No! You have to run with me."

"I'm going to run away with His Royal Highness King Wei, who will supervise you?"

Li Tai thought again, "That's right."

Li Zheng stood up again and said: "His Royal Highness King Wei speaks full of spirit now, apparently he has almost recovered, follow me to weed the fields."

"No." Li Tai said with a bad face.

"Well, you fat man, if you don't work, you can't eat for nothing!"

Li Tai had no choice but to stand up and follow Li Zheng to weed.

"Although it is very tortured physically, it is much better than the mental torture in Chang'an in the court, right?"

Li Tai followed Li Zheng weeding weakly without saying a word, as if venting his anger.

Now that there is food in the court, Li Shimin has also begun to expand, and he has added [-] troops to the Hexi Corridor.

Li Shimin is an ambitious emperor, from everything he has done in Xuanwumen to the present.

The emperor has always had a determination in his heart that surpasses all dynasties.

After an ambitious emperor gained power, he always thought of sweeping the frontier countries by himself and achieving his own goal of dominating the world.

Today's Li Shimin has begun to move around.

Li Shimin sat in the Ganlu Palace and listened to Wang Ding's report, a little surprised, "Qingque didn't come to the court for so many days, and didn't come to Chang'an, so he followed Li Zheng to do farm work in Jingyang?"

Wang Ding nodded, "It was indeed like this after our people went to inquire, and they are still raising pigs and chickens with Li Zheng."

There have always been many things that the royal family has personally farmed. Since the ancestors of the Han Dynasty, there have been examples of emperors farming.

Saying this is a wake-up call.

Li Shimin wondered whether he should also farm like Qingque. This seemed to be a good opportunity to win people's hearts.

After thinking for a while, Li Shimin said again: "What did Li Zheng do with so many hens and sows?"

Wang Ding replied, "They've already been raised. The county lord has also built a place called a breeding farm. People in the village say that children in Jingyang will be able to eat meat every day."

"It is said that Cheng Yaojin also raised a lot of sows recently." Li Shimin pondered.

"That's true." Wang Ding said with a smile, "It is estimated that General Cheng also thinks that he can make money like Li Zheng."
