Mood is always influenced by external circumstances and factors. Of the four people in the group, only Zhang Kang was in the best mood, because the suppressed emotions that had been blocked in his heart for a long time had been released when facing Chen Xu.

The cognition of emotions and thoughts is not the same, and the other three people have different thoughts in their hearts.

"Chen Xu is an ungrateful, despicable and shameless villain! It's all said and done, but I'm still obsessed. I don't know if this is his nature, or if Li Ziqin has some extraordinary means to make Chen Xu turn against him. Zhang Youcai couldn't understand Chen Xu's actions, the feelings of getting along with each other day and night in the military camp for more than ten years, and the experience of sharing the same hatred and hatred on the battlefield, life and death, he Chen Xu had no understanding in his heart, and he did not leave a little attachment and touch.

Seeing that Zuo Chen shook his head and did not answer, Zhang Youcai turned his head to look at Wu Jiang again.

"Look at me, I can't answer your question. I knew that if someone outside of us killed Chen Xu, I would still help him, even if I was alone. I, Wu Jiang, am not Chen Xu, and I know that I have the grace to save my life, so I should repay him. Wu Jiang glanced at Zhang Youcai and said softly.

It is said that emotions affect a person's behavior, but people who have experienced the test of life and death do not necessarily fall into clichés.

Wu Jiang has feelings of gratitude to Chen Xu, so he will put Chen Xu in his heart. Chen Xulian's gratitude to the general, where did he go? Is conscience really eaten by dogs? Zhang Youcai thought so, his irritable mood rose again, and the more he couldn't understand it, the more he thought about it, the more irritable he became.

Zuo Chen didn't answer Zhang Youcai's question because he didn't understand it, since he didn't understand, just do his own thing. These don't have much impact on their plans, in the whole life plan, this is just a small episode, it is a good thing to be able to get Chen Xu's help, and if you don't get it, you won't have too much extravagance. If Chen Xu hinders the progress of his plan, Zuo Chen will definitely not be relentless.

"Let's go! Take a look at the shops. Zuo Chen threw down a sentence and ran to the front first.

The decoration of the shop is really good, the purlin wood has been replaced and the gray new tiles have been replaced, the wooden pillars of the doors and windows are painted with oily shiny, the walls are white, and the floor is paved with large green bricks. It gives people an intuitive feeling that the clean environment makes people feel comfortable. With the smiling face of the shopkeeper full of equinox, the statement of being at home is not too much at all.

"Childe, you're here. Let's see if there's anything else wrong, and tell me to improve it right away. Wang Ping looked at Zuo Chen nervously, lest he would do something unsatisfactory.

I don't know if it was because of Wang Ping's care for a period of time recently, or because he had worked too hard for the shop during this time, Zuo Chen felt that Wang Ping was a little thin, but when he first entered the door and saw his back, the huge ass was still round.

"Isn't that nice! No matter how dissatisfied you are, you have to decorate it like a palace? I don't have that much silver for you. "I am very satisfied with the cleanliness of the shop, and Zuochen's mood has also improved with the pleasing environment.

After the shopkeeper and the man saluted in turn, Zhang Kang and Wu Jiang were going to the backyard to see the workshop, and Zuo Chen and Zhang Youcai walked up to the living room on the second floor.

"Childe, why do you want to tell Chen Xu that we are ready?" As soon as Zhang Youcai sat down, he couldn't wait to ask.

"If Chen Xu really shares the same milk as Li Ziqin's cat and mouse, he will spread the word to Li Ziqin's ears, which is what I hope for. No matter how deep an old fox is, he doesn't want to be despised by his juniors, does he? ”

"I'm afraid that things will backfire, and if he becomes cautious, it will be difficult to do." Zhang Youcai did not agree with Zuo Chen's opinion.

"What's the matter, we don't have anyone who can talk to Li Ziqin indirectly. Besides, no matter how cautious you are, where can you be cautious, it has always been him Li Ziqin who has made the shot, and we have always been in a passive situation, haven't we? ”

"But our current strength is too weak, once we really fight him, it is estimated that we will not get any benefits." Zhang Youcai's doubts are not unreasonable, Li Ziqin is deeply rooted in Kyoto, and it is really difficult to really hurt his foundation, especially all the combat power of the General's Mansion, there are only thirty people.

"This is different from on the battlefield, even against us, in Kyoto, he Li Ziqin does not dare to make a big show. The Son of Heaven still can't tolerate him being so presumptuous, especially since the emperor still treats my father differently at present. If my father loses power, he Li Ziqin will fall into the ground, and at that time, where do we dare to gain a foothold in Kyoto, we can only go elsewhere. ”

Zhang Youcai thought carefully about what Zuo Chen said for a while, it was indeed the head of the analysis, but he always felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he didn't know what the problem was.

"Will Li Ziqin be fooled by you this time?" This is the issue that Zhang Youcai is most concerned about.

"Even if he is not fooled, we have nothing to lose, just as an exercise, we can also gain an in-depth understanding of his Li Ziqin's strengths." Zuo Chen looked at Zhang Youcai, who frowned, and said: "Uncle Zhang, some things can't be too persistent, doing the things in front of you well with your heart is the most important thing, who can take a long-term view of things, and the future will not be certain." ”

Zuo Chen had a premonition in his heart that the current Antai seemed to be a national peace and security, but in fact, the imperial court institutions were not only financially stretched, but the people's anger was also accumulating deeper and deeper, which can be seen from the rampant water bandits in Zhezhou. In the peaceful and prosperous times, who would lift his head and do robbery, it is not forced by life to be at a loss.

When the soldiers at the border gates are short of food and clothing, and the military salary is scarce, who is willing to leave their homeland and separate their flesh and blood, once the military spirit is unstable, it will give the enemy country an opportunity to take advantage of. At that time, there were internal and external troubles, who knew how the political situation would change, if it was not bad, Prince Qing was still eyeing the emperor's throne.

Since it is not clear how the current situation will develop in the future, it is completely necessary for Zuo Chen to prepare for the future. Human, financial, and material resources are necessary for Zuochen's life plan, and they are indispensable resources to ensure the safety and comfort of his family and the people around him.

"Until now, you haven't been able to tell me about your specific plan, I really don't know ...... in my heart."

Looking at Zhang Youcai's depressed look with a smile, Zuo Chen said: "In Kyoto City, Li Ziqin wants to kill me with too much consideration, and the invisible pressure from the emperor and Prince Qing can't allow him to make the slightest mistake. In this way, I will create the same opportunity for him to go outside of Kyoto as last time. Tomorrow the shop will be officially opened, and the day after tomorrow, the people who will be lurking outside Kyoto City will be in place. Isn't it a simple thing? ”

"He, Li Ziqin, won't destroy the shop, right?" Zhang Youcai really has a lot of doubts.

"Probably not. As Li Ziqin, even if he has such a dirty idea, he doesn't bother to do these trivial things. I'm afraid that there are little people who want to perform in front of Li Ziqin, or who want to climb Li Ziqin's high branches. Don't you have to prepare, a few days ago, didn't you bring an extra box of transparent soap to Prince Qing's mansion? The first is to do a propaganda role through the reward of the prince. The second is to tell the ministers whose shop this is and who is the backer of this shop through the mouth of the prince. ”

Zhang Youcai looked at Zuo Chen and thought, this is really a little fox! If he didn't say it himself, who would have known that his little head would have calculated so many twists and turns, and even the prince would have calculated it. Thinking about it, I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Uncle Zhang, what's the matter?" looked at Zhang Youcai in surprise, Zuo Chen was confused, why did he laugh inexplicably?

Shaking his head, Zhang Youcai was embarrassed to say that he had compared Zuo Chen to a little fox. "It's nothing, I think that in a few days, I can teach those turtle grandsons a lesson, and I am happy."

The explanation was reasonable, and Zuo Chen didn't doubt him.

The sound of "Tong, Tong" sounded, it must have been Zhang Kang coming up, thinking of his elephant-like physique, Zuo Chen was worried for a while, don't step on the newly renovated staircase.

"Childe, why is this workshop different from the one in the villa?" With the words, Zhang Kang and Wu Jiang entered the living room one after another.

"And the difference? I haven't seen it yet. Zhang Youcai said.

Zhang Kang waved his big bear-like hand impatiently at his cousin.

"Don't interrupt! I didn't ask you, I asked Childe! Zhang Kang ignored his cousin's anger and looked at Zuo Chen with anticipation.

Zuo Chen knew that Zhang Kang was talking about those wooden boxes of different sizes, "nothing very special, just tools for making ice." ”

"Ice." The three of them spoke in unison. The stunned expression could not hide the shock in my heart! Isn't ice only available in winter? The weather is getting hotter and hotter, how can there be ice or production. Childe must be fooling people! When the three of them thought about it, they suddenly turned into water like ice, and they lost their interest in hunting for curiosities. It's obvious that Childe is fooling people, but he doesn't want to say the purpose of those utensils, who is embarrassed to ask?

"Steward Wang is really busy, why can't he even bother to bring tea." Wu Jiang said, walking outside the house, "You wait a minute, I'll go downstairs to get it." ”

Seeing that the three of them didn't believe what they said, Zuo Chen didn't explain it anymore, and he would naturally be understood by them in the future, and he was not in a hurry at this time. Thinking that the foreign mission will come to Kyoto at the end of the month, how can this ice be sent to the palace, I can't help but feel distressed again, and I have to find a way to get Prince Qing to help with this matter. Since he suspected that the prince had bad intentions, Zuo Chen was reluctant to have too deep communication with him from the bottom of his heart, who knows if it will be a blessing or a curse in the future!

Zuo Chen, who was reborn in a lifetime, didn't want to be involved in the political storm in a daze, wandering the world was a small matter, and he lost his life for this, which was more than worth the loss.

"Hey, tea... Come... ......" Wu Jiang dragged a long voice from the staircase, shouting like a little girl in a teahouse. When he entered the living room, he quietly whispered in Zhang Youcai's ear and said, "I went down and secretly asked the king steward, and I also said that those utensils were used to make ice." ”
