Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 266 Potatoes are cooked

  Fang Jifan, for the first time tried to feel at home.

  Here, Fang Jifan is the father of this big family and their big head, giving them red envelopes and accepting their worship.

  The feeling of being a father is joy and responsibility.

   This reminded Fang Jifan of his father, the guy who was far away in Guizhou, fighting for the old Fang's family!

   Mid-Autumn Festival, it is doomed not to be reunited with father and son, but thinking about it, Dad must be missing himself.

   After joy, there was a sigh.

A few days later, the weather became colder and the wind was blowing. Fang Jifan still got up early in the morning. Outside the door of Fang's house, a sedan chair was parked. This small sedan chair was alone in the early morning wind and frost. Under the eaves of the Zhongmen Gate, The icicles have been born one by one, and this icicle reminds him of his previous life, his childhood.

At that time, he was still a simple child. When he saw Bingling, he was so excited that he folded off Bingling excitedly and stuffed it into his mouth. Melt in.

  But now it is different, now he has become a child who is no longer innocent, although he has not grown up, but the two lives are like a lifetime away, and he no longer has the carefreeness of that time.

   Today should be a sad day.

  Ouyang Zhi was wearing an official uniform. Yesterday, he had gone to the Ministry of Rites to receive the decree, and he was about to set off on behalf of the imperial court to Liaodong to convey His Majesty's decree.

His eyes were red and his face was a little sad. He came to the capital by himself. This was his first long journey. Several juniors accompanied him silently to the middle gate. Then, in the cold and windy In the middle, Ouyang Zhi waited silently.

  He is an honest man, a bit too honest, but honest people often have the persistence of honest people. He has to wait for his mentor to come.

  Fang Jifan is here.

  Ouyang Zhi's eyes became more and more red, his lips trembled, and he suppressed the tears from bursting out of his eyes.

The ancients despised life and death and valued parting. This time, it will take at least a month or two to go back and forth from the customs. Even though the road outside the customs is flat and the road is easy, it is also risky. In case of illness, once various accidents happen, the master and the apprentice will be separated from heaven and man, and there will be no news from then on.

   "Men..." Ouyang Zhi bowed down tremblingly, and bowed heavily to Fang Jifan.

  Because of the cold weather, he sniffed his nose and choked up with sobs: "The disciple has the emperor's order, so he has to travel far away. He can't serve his teacher around these few months. Teacher, please take care."

  When he raised his head, he couldn't hold back the hot tears, which were quickly dried by the cold wind, leaving two marks on his face.

  Fang Jifan said: "You have to be careful, if you are a teacher, you should remember."

   "Remember, students must fulfill their mission."

  Fang Jifan sighed in his heart, I have given the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Liaodong, as well as countless food and property to you, Ouyang Zhi, and I hope you can fulfill your mission.

  At this time, Fang Jifan smiled a little and said, "Go."

Ouyang Zhi stood up tremblingly. He held an oil umbrella under his arm, but he still made a bow to Fang Jifan with his arms between his arms. He turned around, followed by step by step, and finally looked at several juniors, and did not forget to ask: " Please take good care of your mentor."

Tang Yin and the others usually don't have much respect for the senior brother. The senior senior brother is too honest, even Xu Jing often teases him. Tang Yin thinks the senior senior brother is too dull. Without the slightest idea, Wang Shouren has a withdrawn personality, thinking about it every day, so he can't take care of this big brother.

  But today, they were all choked up, bowed solemnly to Ouyang Zhi, and said in unison: "Brother, go, take care."

  Ouyang Zhicai took a breath, and stared deeply at the Fang family. In front of the Fang family was a stone arch bestowed by the emperor.

  He is too familiar with everything here. In his heart, this is his home. He is a child who has traveled far away from home.

   But despite all the reluctance, Ouyang Zhi left afterwards!

   Everything remains the same.

  The only change is that the business of Xishan Coal has improved a lot. And as soon as winter came, many people came to Xishan, and Xishan was attracting refugees everywhere, and many people came with their families.

  The demand for coal has increased significantly this year. People are increasingly discovering that the use of anthracite coal is far more than simply keeping out the cold. Moreover, glass has also become fashionable and in short supply, and the sales volume has increased greatly. The demand for coal is even greater.

  In the greenhouse, the seeds have already started to sow.

  This place not only supplies rare vegetables and fruits in winter, but also is the most important experimental field base of Tuntian Qianhu Institute.

Zhang Xin is still playing with various fruits and vegetables here every day, and recorded countless data on the temperature of the land. He even began to try to set up different flues, apply various fertilizers, or adjust the humidity of irrigation. , can draw different conclusions, and these different conclusions have become valuable experience.

  Ten Tiansuo has now become terrifying.

In this era, most of the people who farm the land are illiterate farmers. They cultivate the land based on the experience left by their ancestors. Because they have no knowledge, it is difficult for them to have the thought and ability to improve and research.

  As for those who have read books, they will never bend down to plow the land.

  The so-called gentleman works hard, and the villain works hard.

  But now this farmhouse has a new atmosphere. The recruited lieutenants and wrestlers are all from good families, that is to say, they can enter the imperial army, especially the Habayashi guards, who are very well-off.

  So they have all read books since they were young and have a certain amount of knowledge. The reason why they came to the Tuntian Institute is hard work, but after all, the future is bright, so all of them are calm and willing to suffer.

  It is scary for a group of educated people to cultivate the land, because they will always try, they know how to record, turn these records into valuable experience, and finally lay a solid foundation for the next exploration.

   On this day, Fang Jifan came to the greenhouse excitedly.

  Because of this piece of potato that was planted for trial, it finally produced. More than two months ago, that one potato germinated, and then it was cut into many pieces and planted in the greenhouse. These potatoes, after Zhang Xin's meticulous care, are now finally bearing fruit.

  Fang Jifan was squatting in the greenhouse. As a rule, no one else was allowed to enter or leave the greenhouse, so besides Fang Jifan, only Zhang Xin was squatting here. He dug out a potato from the ground with his own hands and held it in front of Fang Jifan.

  Uh... the size of an egg...

  Fang Jifan seemed a little disappointed.

But... it doesn't seem too small. The most important thing is that it needs to be cultivated slowly. Fang Jifan took the potato as if holding a gold ingot. What a big change it brought to the soldiers and civilians of Ming Dynasty.

  What kind of **** ruled the world, if a potato is dropped, all the good times will come out.

"Zhang Xin, I will repay you for your credit, but... we need to continue breeding right now, let's not worry, what you have to do now is to breed more good seeds first. Haha, when that time comes, don't say a little Earl, it is not a problem to be named Duke in the future."

  Fang Jifan remembers that in the last life, his leader fooled him like this, and it worked. At that time, he was full of enthusiasm, screaming, asking the leader to hand over the work to Fang Jifan, we can do it.

But now, in another time and space, what Fang Jifan brought is advanced management experience spanning five hundred years. Whether he can be named a marquis or a duke is up to him, but...it doesn’t mean that Fang Jifan can’t Drawing a big pie, people, no ideals, how is it different from salted fish?

  Well, Xiao Zhang, you have ideals.

  Zhang Xin's face flushed with excitement: "You will do your best, Qianhu, please rest assured."

  Fang Jifan patted him on the shoulder very relievedly, he is really an honest man, he deserves to be a kid who grew up in the British public.

  ...

  Jinzhou.

It has already been snowing heavily here, and when the cars from the capital had arrived in Jinzhou, the gates of Jinzhou City were opened wide, Li Shan, the censor of Liaodong patrol, He Yan, the commander of Zhongtunwei, Wang Baoren, the Zhongguan, etc., had brought their soldiers in. This is welcome.

Once out of the customs, it was snowing heavily all the way, Ouyang Zhi was so cold that his face was purple, got out of the car, and saw Jinzhou's big fanfare from a distance, at this time Liu Jin was already wearing a mink fur and stepping on buckskin boots, smiling Di Tianxue stepped forward: "It's finally here."

  Ouyang Zhi frowned slightly: "Eunuch Liu, how does Jinzhou know we're here?"

"Of course our family sent someone to inform us in advance. We are imperial envoys after all..." He raised his decibel, wishing that everyone could hear him: "They are people from the imperial court and the Eastern Palace. What are they? Isn't there no one in the palace and the court, so they will be assigned here? So two days ago, we sent someone to inform them, they knew that we estimated that we would arrive in a few days, so naturally they waited obediently..."

   "..." Ouyang Zhi couldn't understand Liu Jin.

   Does this make sense?

  But Liu Jin felt that it was very meaningful, and when the two of them stepped forward and reached the gate of the city, Commander He Yan, Zhongguan Wang Bao, and Patrol Censor Li Shanren hurried forward to salute.

   Liu Jin just looked up at the sky, laughing dryly.

  Ouyang Zhi looked dull and serious.

  The middle official on the opposite side just looked at it, rolled his eyeballs, and then said with a smile: "We have prepared some water and wine in the town guard's mansion, to clean up the dust for the two imperial envoys, and invite the two imperial envoys to show respect."

  Ouyang Zhi shook his head expressionlessly and said, "Do business first."

...

He has nothing to do with Ouyang Zhi, who is Fang Jifan's disciple? He dare not provoke Ouyang Zhi, because he is afraid that Fang Jifan will kill himself, then shaved the bones, chopped up the meat and fed it to the dogs, um ...Fang Jifan will definitely do this.

  …

With you, Tiger’s codeword is the biggest motivation. In the future, Tiger will continue to work hard! Finally, ask for a guaranteed monthly pass for the new month!
