Tang Dynasty good man

Chapter [-] Mode

Li Shi is a big man, whether it is his speech or his expression, he gives people a different feeling, he always smiles lightly, and seems to be indifferent to everything, but he can understand a little bit of everything, we are equally divided whether we are experts or not , It is estimated that it is also a jack-of-all-trades.

If you talk about lotus vegetables, he can estimate the yield per hectare; it’s not like those people who pretend to understand when they don’t understand, they always talk and ask. Talk blindly.He doesn't care what he says is wrong, and occasionally finds a bug in my words, and the two of them look at each other and laugh, and they are happier.

People are most afraid of barriers in communication between people. Identity, personality, age, experience, education level, etc., are all factors that hinder communication.It has to be touched. If you are lucky, you will have a few chat partners. If you are unlucky, you will not be able to find a suitable person to talk to for the rest of your life. It doesn't mean that good friends and good couples can have this kind of fate.

Apparently Li Shi thinks that we have this kind of fate, we look gentle but talkative, sit and talk, we can talk about whatever we go, talk about lotus vegetables, lotus seeds, lotus leaves and lotus when we look around the lotus pond, Whether it is poems and songs or all kinds of value produced, the so-called appeal to both refined and popular tastes.

The big reservoir talks about fish, the habits of various fish, growth cycle, yield, feeding methods, and even various cooking techniques. We are good at this, just open your mouth.Fishing enthusiasts, even if they don’t understand these things, they are laymen.

"So raising fish is the same as raising pigs and sheep?" Li Shi was obviously very interested in the topic of aquaculture. Although his words were full of stickiness, he was an official from the Ministry of Industry?When it comes to people's livelihood or related places, you always get excited and always ask me. This kind of vanity, everyone has a little bit of vanity, right?

"In fact, it has something to do with eating habits, and it is divided into regions." It's a pity.He didn't hold a fan in his hand, otherwise his figure could be more chic. "Northern people can't cook fish, and there's no way to deal with it. They always feel that it's not as delicious as pigs and cows. In fact, this is a misunderstanding. Fish is no worse than those when it is cooked. When it comes to nutrition, it is more conducive to absorption."

"Nutrition?" Li Shi smiled.He has long been used to these new rhetoric to me, "Absorb?"

"For example," I looked around, but there was no suitable metaphor, "If we talk about people, apart from the differences in status and wealth, in terms of organs... that is, the five sense organs, internal organs, and limbs are all the same. Just like the same disease can be found in rich people, it can also be found in poor people. It can be cured with the same medicine.”

"Oh," Li Shi nodded, "Mencius also said this, which makes sense. According to me, everyone has their own appearance when they are alive, but they all have the same appearance when they are dead."

Looking around, "Brother Li dare not say this outside, the younger brother is just a metaphor."

Li Shi nodded indifferently, and said with a smile: "Eat the same food and drink the same water. If you don't say that the emperor's house won't eat."

Generally speaking, these words are a bit out of bounds. Li Shi always likes to say some outrageous things, and I have to get used to them slowly. "For example, my younger brother, let's take an example. In fact, the meal structure of the emperor, the officials, and the common people are different."

"Oh?"

"Different identities, different types of work, and different consumption. It is said that generals eat a lot. In fact, my younger brother has observed that even if they practice hard, they are not as hungry as farmers."

Li Shi didn't know what I was going to say, he wanted to laugh after hearing my comparison, "What's the point?"

"Food. The rough tea and light rice have no color, no oil and water. The family is better to eat a pot helmet. The Zhuangzi handed in the grain, and the Wang family paid the grain when the wheat was harvested. When the peasants let down their appetites and stuttered, I discovered this problem. The appetite is big. You have to eat one and a half of a pot helmet the size of a bamboo hat. Cheng Chu's meal is only half."

"That is, what is Cheng Dezhao's identity. He didn't just eat the pot helmet for a meal." Li Shi smiled, shook his head and said, "You can't let the farmer hear Zihao's words. He broke his fingers and settled accounts with you." , How much does one and a half pot helmets cost, how much does Cheng Chu cost for a meal? I still think that the peasants eat too much, haha..."

"That's not what you mean, you misunderstood." He waved his hand, squatted down and found a small stone to write and draw on the ground, "My little brother is talking about the importance of agricultural and sideline products. It means that the nutrition cannot keep up, there is no oil in the stomach, and the hunger cannot be endured. It is right for the country to focus on grain production, but it should also properly support agricultural and sideline products as a key project. You are an important member of the Ministry of Industry, just think about it I can understand that if there are a few pieces of meat, two eggs, and a plate of vegetables in a meal, who is willing to go all out to eat the pot helmet as a treasure?" Pointing to a group of farmers who went to the field in the distance, "Wangjiazhuangzi is a For example, in the past when the grain harvest was good, they complained about the excessive rent collection of the Wang family, but now there are no so many complaints, and every family has a grain surplus in the same year; before they came out to help workers, they had to convert grain into wages, but now they know that they need money and fabrics. No The reason for the increase in grain production is that there are too many agricultural and sideline products on the dining table, so we cannot eat so much grain.”

Li Shi pondered for a while after listening, and shook his head, "It is related, but it is not as exaggerated as Zihao said. Due to geographical restrictions, if the imperial court liberalizes agricultural and sideline industries, food production will inevitably decrease. In times of famine and no harvest The consequences are unimaginable."

"It will be fine slowly. Aquaculture is still necessary for the development of the poultry and egg industry. With the gradual promotion of high-yield seeds in agronomy, and the steady increase in grain storage, farmers with grain storage will gradually change some traditional eating habits. Wangjiazhuangzi is a microcosm, trying to build some sideline businesses to benefit farmers without encroaching on good land." Pointing to the hundreds of acres of wasteland at the end of the lotus pond, "Wasteland that cannot be harvested even a single crop, no matter if it is planting lotus vegetables It is still fish farming, which is more beneficial than thousands of acres of fertile land. A few years ago, lotus vegetables were precious things, but they became a home-cooked dish in just two years; Two additional meals; with chicken manure and lotus pond silt on the ground, the crops are more prosperous than in previous years. There are also orchards, barren slopes that could not be cultivated a few years ago, and now they are full of fruits. The output of [-] catties is less than half of Chang'an City, and fresh dates that cost one penny a catty are now worth ten catties for three pennies. Every villager knows what to do with yellow rice porridge sprinkled with jujubes and lotus seeds. These It’s all nutritious. Every bite you eat means you lose a bite of grain. I asked before. In the past, a strong laborer could only barely eat two catties of grain a day, but now he can’t get four catties of grain in three days. The saved grains are fed to pigs and cows. , It changed into oil and water in a blink of an eye, this can be regarded as saving food, right?"

"Forget it," Li Shi clapped his hands helplessly, "according to your Wang family Zhuangzi, it's a saving, but you are the only Wang Zihao in the world, if every family owner has your ability..." He sighed, "This is so Don't worry. Officials don't worry, prime ministers don't worry, maybe even the Holy Majesty doesn't worry."

"Hey, that's that, that's that." It's a compliment to me, I think Li Shi should be the prime minister, and Liu Rengui's killing is the best.Li Shi is so kind, he can boast as soon as he says it.Old Liu is much more disgusting. He has something to say when he farts a little bit loudly, but he hasn't said a word that anyone likes to listen to.

"Turn around and take a look." Li Shilai was interested, and he was not only admiring the lotus pond.I led him to wander around the village, the village and the school, the daughters-in-law and girls tidy up one by one, and the old people had time to chat under the tree.The dolls are as strong as calves.

You can easily enter a small house by pushing the door. There is no habit of bolting and locking. There is a chicken fence in the yard of every house. There are at least a dozen chickens or dozens of chickens. Fetching out the eggs; almost every family has pigs in the backyard, and the pigsty is clean, and if there is a bit of dirty fat, the soil is shoveled out and thrown into the manure pit of the peat pen.There are several large fruit trees in the yard.The lentils and dried fruits were also drying on the window sill, and the big man holding the food was full of clear and sharp tops...

"There are still so many furniture," Li Shi came out and sighed a few times, "I have been to the Zhuanghu's house in my free time before, and I have never seen such a particular place in Wang's Zhuangzi, who even bought all the furniture."

"It's not uncommon. We have a business name in our village, and we have everything that a farmer's family should have. We don't even sell things to the village. It's smooth." Very proud, the only one in Chang'an that can open a large business in the village is Wangzhuang's family.Anyone who wants to buy goods from dozens of miles around has to come here.

"Yes, yes, I always feel that there is something missing." Li Shi felt that something was wrong, and suddenly pushed the door of a farmer to look in, "It's not right. After walking through so many houses, I didn't see any big animals in the house."

"Oh, in order to reduce the burden on the farmers, my little brother has specially set up a livestock shed. All the animals in the village are pulled in and raised by special personnel. Unified management and a dedicated veterinarian are much better than leaving the farmers' house alone. It is also better to add new calves every year. It used to be more, and farmers can use it very well.”

"I'm afraid Zihao has thought of everything he can think of. I've seen it all, hehe..." Li Shi patted the gate building in front of the villa and looked into the distance, "It's a beautiful view, but it's a pity that it's just your Wangzhuang. Yes, if there is such a scene in this pass, it will be a big deal."

"It's almost time, and the nearby Zhuangzi are much better than before. How to put it, it can be regarded as the land brought by the Wang family Zhuangzi. After all, there are several large workshops, which require a lot of labor. They have also learned how to raise chickens and grow fruit trees. It is not troublesome or difficult to learn. The key is the policy. This is because the imperial government’s policies have been good in recent years. There are agriculture, industry and commerce, which promote and drive each other. The people are good, the country is good, and the prosperity Well, it has to be like this."

Li Shi nodded, "If the model of Wangjiazhuangzi can be promoted, the so-called prosperous age may not be far away."

I usually don't dare to say that. A prosperous age is a prosperous age, and adding a so-called so-called will change the taste.It's not good to be with Li Shi, he is more cynical, and always looks at something worthy of recognition with a critical eye.He always smiles when he talks about the commonplace, but when it involves the country, the people, or the policy, he seems to be a little bit of something, and his words are presumptuous; A score of [-] is given, and there are times when you fail, but it is more demanding anyway.

Ying is different, she has become more lenient recently, she said that it is because I am always at home with me in a good mood, but from my point of view, most of the factors are because of the wasteland of the Yun family.

The Yun family wanted to contract out the wasteland all over the world, but the farmers were suspicious. After all, the Yun family's credit value was limited, and no one dared to take the lead.But now it's different, like the lady of the Wang family who descended from Avalokitesvara has spoken, is that okay?This has nothing to do with the credit value. Ying has long been transformed into a god-like level in the hearts of the farmers. Not only does she pay for the wasteland in one go, but anyone who wants to rent can directly find the housekeeper to sign a contract. If there is production, only land rent is charged. There are no other additional conditions, and the Wang family bears all losses without production. This is simply too cost-effective, a deal that does not cost a cent.

Five hundred acres, the front and back five hundred acres will be divided in two days.The old man of the Niu family in Zhuangtou is over 80, and he is the oldest in Zhuangzi.The old man relied on the old and betrayed the old to bully the housekeeper. He insisted that he even rent the share of the unborn great-grandson. I also got [-] wenxi money.

It's not easy to offend, these days you are [-] years old and you have seniority, so let's just rent one share, as long as you can grow the host, you don't mind the tenants renting too much.Once the land is allotted, the strong labor force of the whole village will have work to do.Ying divided it well, with [-] mu of fish ponds and [-] mu of water chestnuts. Teacher Gao lives in the unfinished villa in Zhuangtou. How to use the canal, how deep to dig, how to water, and squat on the wasteland to help planning.

"If you have a big belly, don't run around." Ying has something to do, so much so that she forgot about the troubles of pregnancy, and kept hugging her with a big belly. It doesn't matter if the second lady is in good health. Pregnant woman feels tired feet.The pregnant woman didn't feel tired at all and couldn't bear it.

"If your husband is tired, you can take a rest at home. The canal has been dug to catch water. Mr. Gao has to plan towards the south when he comes back in the afternoon. We can't delay."

Ying put her big belly on the window sill, and the two servant girls were busy wiping her sweat. Wangcai and I sat aside to let out our sweat, and Wangcai, who was better, rolled onto the wet ground beside the flower pond. To cool down, I had to put a wet towel on my head.

"Have a break, who ordered Madam to run into the crop fields? A few days ago, she insisted that she couldn't walk with a big belly, but now I think you can run away." Yingfeng's furious look appeared again.Just one word, Lisa.The appearance of being omnipotent in the sky and the earth, I still think people are lazy this one, that lazy one, the old fat body scared by the housekeeper dare not leave behind, the sweat is calculated by the catty, the blue trousers and coat are still neat in the morning, and they are at noon. Changed into a strange light blue.Only after I asked did I know that the color was soaked in sweat.Dyed the single shirt inside.

"My husband is a student of agriculture, so it's not shameful for me to go to the fields with this imperial order." This is still blunt.I think she just wanted to show off her prestige to the girl Yun in the lotus pond next door: Look, the little girl yelled for so many days and no one answered, I just gave an order, and all the people in Zhuangzi, except those in confinement, even the disabled came. "Didn't you see Ren Yun, did the girl go around when she saw you? That's enough, don't torment the servants, causing the housekeeper to stain two clothes."

Ying was happy, and the two serving maids couldn't help laughing and talking nonsense. Wangcai thought it was an emergency, so he got up and went to escort Ying, and got a snack.

Teacher Gao is a dedicated person, both the Cheng family and the Wang family ran to give him advice, Ying specially sent him a big carriage, and also picked two smart underground people from the mansion to take care of him, the Cheng family also specially hired an engineering team in Wang's village. The tall house was built in a hurry, with exquisite materials and elegant design. I was envious of the wood of the door beam from a distance.

"What's wrong with this, the door of our house should be replaced."

"That's Mr. Gao's filial piety, what are you trying to coax?" Ying had been busy for a day, and her little clothes were all wet, so she washed her body and changed into a loose linen skirt and lay down on the couch for the second daughter to pinch her feet. , humming and chirping comfortably.

"I'll do it," the second daughter would doze off. She's tired these days, and the family is separated in the workshop outside, and she and the fourth child have been arguing all day long.Seeing that it was about to fall over, I quickly picked it up and threw it on the kang to sleep first. "Look, the baby is so tired, she took off her clothes and went to sleep."

"It's good to be tired," Ying saw me coming, and put her foot on my lap, "The second girl is the most important thing, there are many things to worry about..." She said, touching her belly, "From now on, this child will be left to the second child as soon as he is born." There are only a lot of women's stalls, so it's time to sharpen them."

"Well, both of you are people who want to be strong, and you will suffer."

Ying smiled, "Husband hasn't gone to agricultural school for a while, so I should go and see."

"Don't look, just call if you have something to do." Who am I, the person who strategizes and wins thousands of miles, don't look at people and don't go, we have a report.In the past few days, the agronomy is preparing for next year's rice. Several large experimental fields in Lingnan need funds. Chang Gui wants to follow my example and ask for funds from the inner government. .It may be that Liu Rengui was too strong, so he just held up his face and didn't come to me, and even handed over the proposal to the inner government in a serious manner, without any instructions.The Neifu is not a fool. They have accounts for how much the agronomy costs. I want a lot of money for the experimental field. The agronomy has enough funds. I just want to make it spacious and more important. The Neifu gave me face, but not Liu Rengui. reason.

Wait, when the old guy feels that he can't live with money, he has to beg me to come. Everyone is used to budgeting a lot, and it's not bad to live on a budget for a few days, hehe.

"What are you laughing at?" Seeing that I pinched my feet out of sequence, Ying smiled obscenely, thinking that I was playing tricks on her, so she stretched her feet embarrassingly, "I can't, I can't stand your tossing, I'll just roll on the kang."

"Nonsense," he pulled his foot and slapped his hands. "I don't have time to think about other things."

Ying pouted dissatisfiedly, "I always think of good things, is there something pleasing to the eye?"

"Think of a man, guess what."

"That's disgusting," Ying waved her hand with a strange look on her face, "The rumor will come true, with a ring on it."

"Be careful I'll whip you!"
