Chapter 411 Conscience Pain

Hearing what the child said, it seemed that Li Zheng had a great influence on the village. Even though he was so rich, Li Zheng still lived the life that ordinary people should have.

There are not many people who keep their hearts. Some people say that Li Zheng is a fool. Even if he lives his life, Li Zheng is still like a fool. Guarding the gold and silver mountains will not change his life.

"Where is your teacher now?" Zhang Gongjin asked.

Di Renjie said: "The teacher is planting cotton in the new field."

"Can I take the old man there?"

Di Renjie thought for a while and said: "I still want to do experiments with Big Niu and the others. You can go by yourself. It's in the new wasteland to the south."

Zhang Gongjin took another look at the child's appearance, then raised his head and walked to the south where Di Renjie pointed.

In the village of Jingyang, there are many children playing around, and there are also a group of old men who like to sit together and talk.

The slogans of thrift and simplicity can be seen everywhere in the village. Zhang Gongjin found another farmer passing by and said, "Your village is so rich, why do you need to write these slogans?"

The farmer carried the farm tools and said with a smile: "It's all done by Zheng'er."

"Why did he do this?"

The farmer looked Zhang Gongjin up and down and said, "You are from Chang'an."

"The old man is indeed from Chang'an."

"The only ones who can enter the village are serious acquaintances." The farmer smiled heartily and said, "We used to be poor people. As the saying goes, we don't reveal our wealth. Even if we want to live better now, we have to save it for the future." Plan, Zheng'er is such a child, he counts every penny carefully, and behaves just like his father."

"Really?" Zhang Gongjin also smiled awkwardly.

The farmer went on to say, "Who knows which will come first, natural disaster or man-made disaster. If you have food at home, don't panic. If you have some spare money, you can take care of it later."

Zhang Gongjin nodded, "That's right."

"Brother, you are an official in Chang'an." The farmer said, "I think there were people who came to the village before, and those who talked like you were all officials in Chang'an."

"It is true that I am an official in Chang'an. I came to Jingyang this time to ask Li Zheng some things."

The farmer pointed to the south of Jingyang and said, "That kid is still planting in the field. I just saw it by the river."

"Thank you, brother." Zhang Gongjin cupped his hands and said.

Walking all the way to the south of the village, Zhang Gongjin saw Li Zheng busy in the fields.

It is weeding and digging, and the farm work is done very skillfully.

Depending on the rich and powerful children in Chang'an, there may be some powerful and powerful children like Li Zheng who don't even know how to wield a hoe.

Walking behind Li Zheng, it seemed that the child didn't notice his arrival.

Li Zheng was still bent over and concentrated on farming in the field.

Zhang Gongjin simply sat down and watched Li Zheng doing farm work.

A little tired, Li Zhengzhi stood up and took a sip of water, then turned around and saw Zhang Gongjin sitting on the rock.

"Zou Guogong, you are here." Li Zheng walked forward with a smile.

"The old man walked around, and the medical officer of the imperial medical office said that the old man should move around more, so that the blood will be activated."

Li Zheng said: "I am developing a kind of brown sugar recently, which is good for nourishing blood and nourishing qi. I will send some to Zou Guogong next time I make it."

"Thank you so much."

"It's not convenient to talk here, how about we go to the horse pen to play chess?"

"Okay." Zhang Gongjin readily agreed.

Dumb was feeding the horses. After Feng An's feed arrived, it was too extravagant for the horses to eat high-quality feed every day.

In fact, Duan was also very worried. These horses were used to eating fine fodder, whether they could still eat grass fodder in the future.

Feng An brought a lot of sugar cane, but the sugar he squeezed out was only five clay pots.

There will not be too much brown sugar extracted from these sucrose.

And the season is about to pass, transportation is a big problem, and the sugarcane in Lingnan is almost out of season at this time, even if it is transported, it will take time.

Mr. Zhang looked at Li Zheng boiling the sugar and said, "Li Zheng, have you been able to do this since you were a child?"

"Some are learned from books, and some are learned after watching others how to do it." Li Zheng was picking up the impurities that floated from the sucrose while doing it.

Zhang Gongjin said again: "Even if you can do these things, you just don't want to make a name for yourself."

It will take some time to boil the brown sugar. Li Zheng said to Zhang Gongjin: "Zou Guogong, I am a more serious person. To me, fame is just a name. This kind of thing will not be brought with me in life or death."

Zhang Gongjin said: "Isn't money the same?"

Li Zheng: "Money can at least allow me to live well now, without having to worry about food and drink."

Zhang Gongjin went on to say: "In fact, fame will leave you with a name after death, but money..."

Li Zheng: "How do I know what happens after death?"

Zhang Gongjin: "..."

If you think about it carefully, what Li Zheng said is not unreasonable.

The brown sugar needs to be boiled slowly, usually five or six hours, and leave the heat to the tiger to watch.

The chessboard is laid out and chess is played.

After making a few moves, Li Zheng found that Zhang Gongjin's chess moves today were very strange.

"This doesn't look like Duke Zou's road."

Zhang Gongjin smiled and explained: "These days I have been reviewing the game at home, and found that your chess moves are just like this. Today I must beat you."

Li Zheng also put on a posture and stepped down more than ten steps.

Zhang Gongjin tugged at his beard and found that Li Zheng's two cannons had already been mounted on his general's head.

Pulling off a beard in surprise, Zhang Gongjin sighed and said: "The old man lost again."

Li Zheng smiled and took the penny, joking that when he was young, he didn't underestimate those old chess players playing chess.

Zhang Gongjin is very powerful and very talented.

Having been in touch with chess for so long, Zhang Gongjin has mastered some simple chess moves very well. He may be more than good at dealing with some beginners, but Zhang Gongjin still needs some time to specialize in dealing with his own chess basket.

Li Yifu came to report: "They are here again."

Li Zheng cleaned up the chessboard and asked, "Who is here again?"

Li Yifu took a look at Zhang Gongjin, who was not good at talking here, and was a little hesitant.

Zhang Gongjin looked like a smile but not a smile.

Li Zheng said: "Tell me, there are no outsiders here."

Zhang Gongjin said: "People with the five surnames came again, and this time they brought a lot of money. At a glance, there should be [-] guan."

Li Zheng said to Zhang Gongjin with emotion: "Look, Zou Guogong, there are too many kind-hearted people now. I know that the next life is not good, and they are all rushing to give me money. I feel a little embarrassed."

Zhang Gongjin smiled bitterly, not knowing what to say.

Li Yifu asked: "Should we accept this money?"
