Listening to the child say such words, it seems that Li Zheng has a great influence on the village, even if he is so rich, Li Zheng still lives 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 a life, Li Zheng is still like a fool, and guarding the gold and silver mountains will not change much for him.

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

Di Renjie said: "The teacher grows cotton in the new field. ”

"Can I take the old man with me?"

Di Renjie thought for a while and said, "I'm going to do experiments with Brother Da Niu and them, you can go by yourself, on the new wasteland in the south." ”

Zhang Gongjin glanced at the child's appearance again, and raised his head and walked to the south that Di Renjie was pointing to.

There are a lot of children playing in Jingyang's village, and there are also a group of old men who like to sit together and talk.

The slogans of diligence and thrift and simplicity can be seen everywhere in the village, and Zhang Gongjin found a farmer passing by and said: "Your village is so rich, why do you still write these slogans." ”

The farmer carried the farm tools and said with a smile: "That's all done by that kid." ”

"Why did he do that?"

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

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

"Those who can enter the village are all acquaintances." The farmer smiled heartily and said: "We used to be poor families, as the saying goes, wealth is not exposed, even if we want to live a better life now, we have to save it for the future. ”

"Really?" Zhang Gongjin also smiled awkwardly.

The farmer continued: "Who knows which will come first, natural or man-made, and if there is food in store at home, they will not panic, and they will be able to cope with it with a little extra money." ”

Zhang Gongjin nodded, "That's right. ”

"This brother, you are an official in Chang'an." The farmer said: "I see that there have been people who have come to the village before, and like you, they are all officials in Chang'an. ”

"It's true that I am an official in Chang'an, and this time I came to Jingyang to ask Li Zheng about something."

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

"Thank you, brother." Zhang Gongjin arched his hand and said.

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

Weeding and turning the soil again, and the farm work was very skillful.

If you want to look at the children of the powerful in Chang'an, there may be some powerful children of Li Zheng's age, who don't even know how to swing a hoe.

Walking behind Li Zheng, it seemed that the child did not notice his arrival.

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

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

A little tired, Li Zheng straightened up, took a sip of water, and turned his head to see Zhang Gongjin sitting on the stone.

"Zou Guogong, you're here." Li Zheng stepped forward with a smile.

"The old man came and went, and the medical officer of the Imperial Medical Department said that the old man should move around more, so that the qi and blood will be active."

Li Zheng said: "Recently, I have been developing a kind of brown sugar, which is good for blood and qi, and I will send some to Zou Guogong next time." ”

"Thank you so much."

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

"Okay." Zhang Gong readily agreed.

The big tiger was feeding the horses, and after Feng An's feed arrived, the horses were eating the best concentrate every day, which was a bit too luxurious.

In fact, Dahu is also very worried that these horses are used to eating fine materials, and whether they can eat forage in the future.

Feng Ang brought a lot of sugarcane, but only five clay pots of sucrose were squeezed.

There will not be too much brown sugar used to refine from these sucrose.

And the season is also over, transportation is a big problem, now this season Lingnan sugarcane is about to pass the season, even if it is transported over, it will take time.

Zhang Gongjin looked at Li Zheng boiling these cane sugars and said, "Li Zheng, have you been able to do this since you were a child?" ”

"Some of them are learned from books, and some of them are learned by seeing how others do them and trying them yourself." Li Zheng was doing it while scooping up the impurities floating from the sucrose.

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

It will take some time for the brown sugar to be boiled, and Li Zheng said to Zhang Gongjin: "Zou Guogong, I am a more practical person, and fame is just a few names for me, and this kind of thing is not brought to life or death." ”

Zhang Gongjin said: "Isn't money too? ”

Li Zheng: "Money can at least make me live a good life now, and I don't have to worry about eating and drinking." ”

Zhang Gongjin continued: "In fact, fame will make you famous after death, and money will ......."

Li Zheng: "How do I know what happened 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 for five or six hours, and the heat is handed over to the big tiger to watch.

The chessboard is set out and the game is played.

After playing a few moves, Li Zheng found that Zhang Gongjin's chess move today was very strange.

"This doesn't look like Zou Guogong's path."

Zhang Gongjin smiled and explained: "The old man has been reviewing at home these days, and found that your chess move is nothing more than that, and the old man must win you today." ”

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

Zhang Gongjin pulled his beard and found that Li Zheng's two cannons had been placed on his general's head.

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

Li Zheng smiled and took a penny, joking that when he was a child, he didn't underestimate those elderly chess baskets playing chess.

Zhang Gongjin is very powerful and very talented.

Having been in contact with chess for so long, Zhang Gongjin has mastered some simple ways in chess, and he may be more than able to deal with some beginners, but he still needs some time to study his chess basket.

Li Yifu came over and reported: "They are here again. ”

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

Li Yifu glanced at Zhang Gongjin and was not easy to talk here, and was a little hesitant.

Zhang Gongjin's expression seemed to be smiling.

Li Zheng said: "You say, there are no outsiders here. ”

Zhang Gongjin said: "The people with the fifth surname are here again, this time they brought a lot of money, and at a glance, there should be 100,000 yuan." ”

Li Zheng said to Zhang Gongjin with emotion: "Zou Guogong, look, there are too many kind-hearted people now, and I know that I will have a bad time in the next day, and they are all in a hurry to send me money, and I am a little embarrassed." ”

Zhang Gongjin smiled bitterly a few times, not knowing what to say.

Li Yifu asked, "We can't collect this money." ”
