Chapter 137: Win-Win
"You're saying it well. We are just selfish to each other, living according to our own inner voices. So, in that case, Ah Zhi, you don't want to stop me from living according to my heart. Zhang Jia immediately returned the favor with his own way.
Jiang Chengzi was stunned for a moment, and then said, "What Gongzi said is extremely true. ”
This sentence choked Zhang Jia speechless for a while, only glared at her angrily, stared at her for a moment, and said, "Yang Minzhi, I admit defeat." ”
When Jiang Chengzi heard that he was helpless, he just smiled "poof", softened his tone, and said: "Where did you win or lose? Since the three of us have the favor of heaven and get together again, we should not stick to the shackles of the previous life, but should use my advantages to create an immortal foundation. ”
Zhang Jia's eyes sank, his expression froze, and he asked a little suspiciously, "What do you mean?"
"Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of power, but I don't have the patience to play politics and intrigue, and I don't want to tire myself out. Jiang Chengzi hurriedly explained to Zhang Jia in a tactful way that he did not want to rebel and seize the world and become the empress. Well, the first empress is still a little kid.
When Zhang Jia heard this, his expression was obviously relaxed, and he asked, "What does Ah Zhi mean?"
"Create an immortal career. Jiang Chengzi said as he peeled the roasted sweet potatoes himself, and gently scraped them with a spoon to eat, eating very ladylike.
"This, this is what you planted?" Zhang Jia watched her eat with relish, but it was something he had never seen before, and he thought of her vigorous harvest banquet in the past few days.
"Exactly. Zhang Gongzi, please also enjoy one or two, can you?" Jiang Chengzi made a gesture of invitation to him.
Zhang Jia said with a smile: "I heard that it comes from the ethereal immortal mountain. The things of the fairyland, you can enjoy one or two, and you can't ask for them. You're welcome. He said. picked up a sweet potato and peeled off the charred skin on the outside like Jiang Chengzi did, revealing the soft golden and slightly reddish sweet potato flesh inside.
The sweet potato was steaming in the house, Zhang Jiayi picked up the spoon and gently scraped it and put it in his mouth to taste it, his expression lit up, and he let out a "ah". said: "So sweet and soft, really immortal." ”
"What an immortal product. It's just an item from overseas, and my master thinks that this item can temporarily relieve the people's hunger. That's why I brought it back. This is brought back for everyone to fill their stomachs, and it is just a mundane thing in the world. Jiang Chengzi said slowly.
Zhang Jia shook his head and said, "Ah Zhi." What you say is not true. This sweet potato and potato are not found in the world. If you bring it back, if you look at it from a commercial point of view, after all, you can make a lot of money and silver, but you can contribute to the court and the people of the world for free. Even if it is a vulgar object, it is not vulgar. ”
"Zhang Gongzi praised falsely. The sooner this crop reaches the people, the sooner it will benefit. It would be foolish to go down the commercial path. Jiang Chengzi was eating. While talking to Zhang Jia.
When she had an aggressive conversation with Zhang Jia, she suddenly thought that it was all from her previous life. Why is there a struggle in this life, bound by the previous life? If people know the possible future, shouldn't they avoid repeating the mistakes of the past? Therefore, she felt that it was better to cooperate with him than to oppose this man and always be on guard against his fatal blow. With Zhang's help, whether it is salt, tea, crops, or other industries that may be created in the future, it will be much easier.
Instead of being hostile, it is better to cooperate and win together.
Therefore, she chose the path of cooperation, so she eased her expression and began to lobby the future heir of the Hedong Zhang family to participate in the cause she was going to do.
"Ah Zhi puts the people of the world first, but I am cheesy and blasphemy Ah Zhi. Zhang Jia stood up and bowed.
Jiang Chengzi smiled lightly and said, "Zhang Gongzi Mo Duoli." After she finished speaking, she loudly ordered the people outside to invite Yao Gongzi to come.
"What do you ask him to do?" Zhang Jia was quite suspicious. He secretly followed Jiang Chengzi along the way, and also knew that Yao Ziqiu and Ah Zhi had a great friendship, and Yao Ziqiu was quite protective of Ah Zhi.
As a man, Zhang Jia knows Yao Ziqiu's thoughts very well, so he can't afford to like Yao Ziqiu.
"Today, I sincerely invite Zhang Gongzi to join us and create an immortal career with us. Well, for the time being, this immortal cause is set as the 'Shennong Plan', can Zhang Gongzi be interested?" Jiang Chengzi said slowly.
If when she got potatoes and sweet potatoes, she wanted to plant, make a small fuss, and make a lot of money, but after running all the way and meeting Li Ke, she suddenly thought that this time and space would be completely different, or Li Ke would not have to face his tragic fate, and he would not have to waste his life on the lonely throne.
Of course, regarding whether or not to ascend to the throne, Ah Nian clearly told her that if he could keep the people he cared about like that, he would definitely not want that lonely position.
He was a sober man, and he said that that position was subject to all kinds of calculations every day. And he just wants to live an ordinary life, growing old with the people he cares about.
Because he has this mind, she can't take the political line, but find another way, well, for example, to build a Chinese Academy of Sciences in Datang, and she and Li Ke are the people who have made great contributions to the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Such a person, loved by the people of the world, and the pillars of the country, once moved, it will shake the foundation of the country. Moreover, people who are obsessed with scientific research on the one hand will basically give others a sense of political harmlessness.
This path may be successful. Well, of course, if she can go to Chang'an in the future, she has to find a way to harm those old and young masters who may become a threat, and reform their values, outlook on life, and worldview. Well, after subverting the three views, we will create a powerful Datang for them again.
At this time, everyone will be immersed in the rumbling wheels of the Tang Empire, where will they be entangled in whether a third prince who is obsessed with science and technology will pose a danger to the position of the emperor.
This is the most reliable way for Jiang Chengzi to confide in Li Ke after thinking hard.
In this life, Zhang Jia originally didn't want to take over the Hedong Zhang family, but he was afraid that if he didn't hold the Hedong Zhang family tightly in his hands, when the time came, the Zhang family would be unfavorable to her, and he would be powerless.
Therefore, he still went through nine deaths to get the power of the heir of the Zhang family. Of course, in the previous life, when he plunged the knife into her chest. When I saw her blood spurting out, I regretted it.
In this life, he did everything he could to protect her. Don't let her suffer the slightest harm, even if she is an enemy of her family and invincible to the whole world. Even if you have to lose your life.
That's the only thing he thought when he found out that he was actually reborn as a baby. To that end, he has been doing his best to make himself stronger. Of course, he didn't meet her at the allotted time, and he was both melancholy. I feel happy again.
Because not meeting her means that this life has changed, or her fate can also be changed. He was glad he hadn't met her, and he wondered if there was still her on this plane, or if she would have crossed paths with his own life.
When he was free to move around, he inquired about the tragic fate of her life. He thought: whether she's stupid or not. It's ugly or ugly. The Zhang family has always respected the patriarch's choice, and he will propose to the Yang family, marry her, and protect her for the rest of her life.
He felt that Yang had no reason to refuse his proposal, after all, she was described as stupid and dispensable in the eyes of everyone.
But what happened next was something he didn't expect. Not only is she not stupid, but her light is even greater than in her previous life. After his first failed courtship, he thought it would be good if he was with her. It's good to be by her side, even if she doesn't love him after all.
He followed her all the way to Shu from the banks of the Luoshui River. Arrive in Jinwon County. He found that no matter what he did, he couldn't get close to him, he could only watch Li Ke approach him step by step, as if he was intimate.
He was forced to have no choice but to come to the door to propose. He was sure she would refuse. He even thought that she would either henceforth be a passerby, or an enemy.
But he didn't expect her to be kind to him and invite him to create a great career together.
"Can I?" asked Zhang Jia cautiously, afraid that this was a dream. At least to be treated so kindly by her, for him, it seems to be in a dream.
"Hedong Zhang's family, but the most pragmatic family, Hedong Zhang's family is a hermit family, its roots are deep, not ordinary nobles can be compared. With this alone, the Hedong Zhang family is definitely qualified to join forces with the Shu Wangfu, the Yang family's six rooms, and the Duyun Villa. Moreover, Ah Nian and Zhang Gongzi and I are the only old acquaintances in this world, and our cooperation will definitely be sharper. Jiang Chengzi said with a smile.
"I really can. Zhang Jia was a little excited.
"Yes. Jiang Chengzi said with a smile.
But an elegant voice sounded at the door, and a man with a pleasant face stood at the door and asked, "Ah Zhi, who is this brother?"
"Brother Yao, this is Zhang Jia, the new patriarch of the Zhang clan in Hedong. Zhang Gongzi is an old acquaintance of me and the King of Shu, and he is also very interested in the cause we want to create. Willing to help our cause in all aspects and participate in our research. Therefore, I have you invited to come and discuss. Jiang Chengzi Shi Ran stood up.
Yao Ziqiu, who was dressed in a light green shirt, flicked his sleeves lightly, and the auspicious clouds on his sleeves fluttered out, and his gestures were amazing. He Shi Shiran walked to the house and sat down, looked at Zhang Jia, and then looked at Ah Nian, who was lost in his soul, and said slowly: "The name of the Zhang family in Hedong, Duyun Villa has also heard of it, it is said to be a particularly pragmatic family, with the addition of the Zhang family in Hedong, we will definitely start a business like a tiger." I have no objection. It's just that Zhang Gongzi should also be clear that the cause we created is an immortal cause for the benefit of mankind, which is naturally contrary to the thousands of dollars of the feudal lords. Zhang Gongzi can think about this clearly. ”
"I am not a person who admires fame and fortune, and the kind of career that Ah Zhi said is exactly what I can't ask for. Zhang Jia said politely.
Yao Ziqiu raised his eyes and chuckled, and said, "I have no objections, but if one person has objections, I am afraid that the son will not be able to enter this immortal career." ”
After he finished speaking, he looked at Ah Nian. Yao Ziqiu clearly knew that the two were not dealing with each other, and this time he was taking a stand on Ah Nian's side.
When Zhang Jia heard this, he also understood Yao Ziqiu's approach, and he immediately said: "It is a blessing for my Hedong Zhang family to be able to cooperate with the King of Shu, the second son of Yao and the sixth room of the Yang family. From now on, they will be collaborators, regardless of each other. ”
Ah Nian was still depressed, and he sank into his own demons, Yao Ziqiu was a little anxious, but he didn't dare to say anything. Jiang Chengzi Shi Ran got up and said with a smile: "This is nature. From now on, we must work together to create a prosperous world in our lifetime. Let Datang's granary, whether public or private, whether it is home or country, all be full. ”
"Well, well said. Yao Ziqiu clapped his hands again and again.
Yes, if there is anyone who is the happiest this time, it should be Yao Ziqiu. His long-standing dream was to find suitable crops, increase yields, shorten harvest dates, and provide food and clothing for the people.
Now, he has met Yang Azhi, her natural cohesion has gathered a group of strange people, and more importantly, she has the same dream as him. It's just that she is very confident in the realization of her dream and starts to do it in an orderly manner.
He followed her, and suddenly rejoiced that he had met her. He even thought that maybe the most beautiful moment of his life would be meeting her.
What Ah Zhi said made me feel an inexplicable blood boiling. In the past, I received family experience, and I traveled to many places and saw starvation everywhere. It's not that the people are not industrious, but that famines, wars, and taxes make them have no way to live. Today, we are looking for crops that are extremely high-yielding, and for the people, it is undoubtedly nectar from heaven. Zhang Jia said slowly.
When Jiang Chengzi saw him say this, he thought about revealing all the secrets of the Zhang family that he knew. Because according to Ah Nian, the Zhang family in the previous life was very powerful, and their ancestors had successfully predicted the direction of the past dynasties, big and small, big and small, big and small. At that time, Jiang Chengzi suspected that the Zhang family was a historical madman, and he didn't want future generations to destroy the trend of history, so he used the theory of ghosts and gods to fabricate a so-called ancestral precept of guarding the right and guarding history.
In addition, Jiang Chengzi also heard Li Ke say that the Zhang family in Hedong has very strong technology. She caught up with Zhang Jia, and she also wanted to dig out this part of the hidden technology, or she could create a brilliant imperial Tang Dynasty.
"Zhang Gongzi is officially in charge of our immortal career today, and I should have been the landlord's friendship, but today I really have something important, so I won't entertain Zhang Gongzi, so Yao Ergongzi will introduce you to the Shennong plan, okay?" Jiang Chengzi said with a smile, but he glanced at Yao Ziqiu inadvertently, and then looked at Ah Nian.
Yao Ziqiu is also a smart person, knowing that Ah Nian's situation is not right, Ah Zhi will definitely deal with Ah Nian's matter if he leaves this time. Therefore, he didn't wait for Zhang Jia to respond, and immediately echoed Jiang Chengzi and said: "Azhi, don't worry, I will introduce the Shennong plan, and I will wrap it up." ”
"In this way, Brother Yao will be tired. Jiang Chengzi said goodbye to Zhang Jia on his side, then went out with his clothes, and when he arrived at the door, he ordered Xiao Jiu who was guarding the door, saying, "Your son Ah Nian seems to be unwell, go and help him rest." (To be continued.) )
