Chapter 121 Changle, how to come again (bless the motherland, bless book friends, happy double festival)
Lin Zhengliang took Mengjia Village very smoothly, when Meng Xianchang rented the land of Mengjia Village to the Linjia Village plan, not only to give grain, but also to a part of the objective rent.
The villagers of Mengjia Village were all excited and burst into tears.
Many villagers who had packed their luggage and were ready to go out with their families to escape the famine threw their luggage heavily on the kang at home.
But if there is a little way, who wants to be far away from home?
Who wants to endure the taste of being under a fence in a foreign land?
In this way, Lin Ran easily took over tens of thousands of acres of land in Mengjia Village, and Meng Xianchang signed the contract on behalf of the entire Mengjia Village, and the formal procedures were completed.
With Lin Ran's latest instructions and spirit, Lin Zhengliang successively took the land of Lijia Village and Zhaojia Village, and when Lin Zhengliang put the contract between Zhaojia Village and Lijia Village in front of Lin Ran.
Lin Ran showed a very bright smile, it was time to show his true skills······
Lin Ran led the villagers and soldiers to harvest all the potatoes in the field, and the entire camp was full of potatoes like a small hill.
Lin Ran selected those egg-sized potatoes and eggs and let them cook in a large pot in the kitchen.
Then it was distributed to the villagers door to door, and the soft and sweet taste made the villagers have a great appetite.
I never thought that this ugly-looking potato egg would have such a delicious taste.
"The villagers are making it hard tonight, and you can't eat potatoes like this from tomorrow onwards. For what is left is to be planted in the field. ”
Lin Ran's words received the full support and response of the villagers.
They know that with this small village chief, the future will only become more and more prosperous and better.
During the days of cultivating potatoes to sprout, Lin Ran led the village name and soldiers to work together with the three villagers of Lijia Village, Mengjia Village and Zhaojia Village.
The roads of the four villages are tightly connected, and all of them are paved with bluestone slabs.
After Meng Xianchang and the other three village chiefs learned that Lin Ran was running a school in Linjia Village, they begged Lin Ran to accept the children of several of their village chiefs into school.
Looking at the anticipation and eagerness on the faces of the three village chiefs, Lin Ran agreed.
As a result, the school in Linjia Village has reached the point where it must be expanded.
After planting nearly 100,000 acres of land in four villages, including Linjia Village, with potatoes, Linjia Village began the largest new housing construction campaign in history.
In order to ensure that the new house is neat and orderly, it is staggered, and it must also be conducive to the villagers to welcome each other.
Lin Ran directly designed it to look like a castle.
When he took the drawings in his hand and explained them to the villagers one by one, the villagers' eyes lit up.
Although they couldn't understand the meaning of many new words in Lin Ran's mouth.
But they knew that the little village chief was doing something that would change the history of Linjia Village.
Sun had a big belly, smiling as she watched her son talk in front of the villagers, and happiness was always rippling on her face.
Now she is the most respected person in the entire Linjia Village, no matter where she goes, there will be people who greet her warmly and greet her warmly.
Of course, she knew that all this was brought to her by her son, although Lin Zhengtai had practiced medicine for many years and had a good reputation, but compared with the popularity that her son had accumulated in less than a year, it was dwarfed.
When Lin Ran loudly told the villagers that the new house we built this time will not fall for decades, or even hundreds of years.
The folks are all going crazy······
"Village chief, I can't do it, I haven't seen a house that doesn't need to be repaired for ten years."
Although Tie Dan has now thrown himself to the ground for the five bodies that Lin Ran admires, he still questions it.
The old village chief Lin Zhengliang also had a puzzled expression.
"Village Chief, isn't it a bit too much? Can it really be guaranteed to survive for decades or even hundreds of years? ”
Lin Zhengliang, the old village head, asked suspiciously.
His question represents the question of the entire Linjia Village villagers, not that they don't believe in Lin Ran's ability as the village head, but that what this guy said is too evil, they are all mud thatched houses, and they may not fall for decades or hundreds of years······
"Lao Liu, Lao Xu. Show the folks what you two have fired. ”
Liu Laohan and Xu Laohan each carried a few slate-like things in their hands and stood in front of the villagers.
"The materials used to build a house in Linjia Village this time are all bricks in the hands of Lao Liu and Lao Xu. This kind of brick is strong and durable, Lao Liu, Lao Xu fell for everyone to see. ”
So, Lao Liu and Lao Xu were under the gaze of the villagers. He slammed the brick in his hand to the ground.
The villagers just saw the dust, and after the dust settled, Lao Liu and Lao Xu picked up the bricks on the ground.
"Ah, it's still intact?"
While the villagers opened their eyes wide, their mouths widened.
"Tiedan, do you believe it now?"
Lin Ran looked at the stunned iron egg and said.
"Uncle Liu, Uncle Xu, how did you do it? Where did you get this thing? ”
Tie Dan finally believes it now, if he has this thing too early, he will not be surrounded by walls, and he will freeze the bride in winter.
"Tie Dan nephew, how can Lao Xu and I have this ability, it's not all the village chief who taught me and Lao Xu to fire step by step, Tie Dan will come over to help tomorrow, the village chief said that every meal of burning bricks has big fish and meat, and the salary of five copper plates a day."
Lao Liu touched his head and said embarrassedly.
"What? How much do you get five copper plates a day? Is this a fat gap? I'm going to ······."
Tie Dan suddenly came to his senses, and the whole person became excited.
"I'll go too, the village chief still has my ······" The villagers can't be calm, no matter when, whenever and wherever the charm of money is everywhere.
"The work of burning bricks of the villagers, not everyone can do it, you must be young and strong, let Lao Liu and Lao Xu teach you the production process tomorrow, our new home in the entire Linjia Village, just wait for the bricks fired by you people." When the new house is completed, the village grows up for a three-day feast to celebrate ······"
"Good ·····"
The villagers slapped vigorously and applauded vigorously.
These days, the villagers are living as if they were living in a dream.
Such a scene, things that these old people never dreamed of in their lives, have now been realized under the leadership of this nine-year-old village head.
The villagers now have surplus food from every household, and the copper plates seem to have fallen from the sky, rolling into the pockets of the villagers in a steady stream. In Linjia Village the next day, on a wide land on the river beach in the back mountain, hundreds of laborers were busy in full swing.
Under the leadership of Lao Liu and Lao Xu, the two brick-burning masters brought out by Lin Ran personally, they methodically guided the villagers how to operate and how to do better.
Lao Liu and Lao Xu are now like carps jumping over the dragon gate, and they have become Lin Ran's descendants in one fell swoop, making the two people with foreign surnames have more face on their faces.
Because of the participation of children from the other three villages, Lin Ran could only temporarily open the school outside, but fortunately, the weather was now lukewarm.
The bricks fired on the river beach were the first to be supplied for the construction of the school.
No matter how hard it is, you can't be bitter for children, and a school without a classroom can't be called a school in the strict sense.
"Your Highness, why can't you even see a single figure in Linjia Village now?"
After the cuizhu girl in the carriage lifted the curtains, she said suspiciously.
When Princess Changle heard this, she also stretched out her head to look out the window, and sure enough, there was no one in the entire Linjia Village, and the fields looked empty.
"Manager Huang, let's lean on the side of the camp, it is estimated that Lin Gongzi is in class at this time."
Princess Changle spoke.
"Yes, Your Highness Princess. This is closer to the barracks. ”
"Goose goose goose, song to the sky, white hair floating green water, red anthurium plucking clear waves......"
A hearty sound of reading came from the camp, which made Princess Changle's eyes light up instantly.
What an easy-to-understand poem!
It immediately reminds me of the scene of geese playing in the water......
"Let's go, Cuizhu get out of the car."
Princess Changle flashed her big beautiful eyes and couldn't wait to speak.
After the two got out of the car, they walked straight to the camp.
"Teacher, there are two beautiful young ladies at the door......"
Lin Xue stood up and said to Lin Ran, who was facing the gate of the camp.
Hearing this, Lin Ran turned his head to look behind him, and in an instant, a smile crawled all over his little face......
"Miss Li, Miss Cuizhu, you're here."
Princess Changle and Miss Cuizhu smiled and nodded when they heard this.
"The students will review it by themselves, and the teacher is a guest."
Lin Ran turned around and explained to the children.
Sitting down in her own "office" in the camp, Princess Changle asked with her big beautiful eyes.
"Lin Gongzi, why did you call your classmates just now? What a strange name! And why do you have to take classes outdoors? ”
"Oh, this son is also on a whim, and I think it's kinder to call my classmates. As for why they went to class outside, because the children from the three nearby villages also came to Linjia Village to study, and there were not so many children crowded in the classroom. ”
Lin Ran replied truthfully.
"It's really kind, it's a fresh word. It is indeed a great good thing that Lin Gongzi can accept the children of nearby villagers to study here! ”
Princess Changle said with a smile on her face.
"By the way, Miss Li Le, I've been waiting for you for a long time. There is an important matter that Miss Li needs to hand over to her uncle for help. ”
When Princess Changle heard this, she knew that what her father had told her was coming, and she didn't have to open her mouth to make this salt-making method and was actively presented by Prince Xiaolin.
Sure enough, without waiting for Princess Changle to ask about anything, Lin Ran had already solemnly handed over a densely packed piece of paper to Princess Changle.
"Miss Li, this matter is very important, and you must let your uncle personally hand it over to Your Majesty, and you must not fall into the hands of people with bad intentions."
"Childe, I don't know what this is? Why did you make Childe so serious? ”
Princess Changle said knowingly.
"This is the method of purifying river salt and mineral salt, and the stakes are very high, and it should not be careless."
"Ahhh Such an important thing. ”
Princess Changle hurried and held it tightly in her hand.
"Don't worry, Changle will return immediately, the stakes are very high, don't dare to delay."
When he came, his father and mother told him to bring the method of making salt back to the palace.
Because the shortage of salt in the army is becoming more and more serious, it has reached the point where it is impossible to stabilize the morale of the army.
When the crown prince Li Gang left Chang'an, he was in a very disappointed mood.
He didn't expect that he would end up with a bad reputation and be expelled from Chang'an directly, and he didn't even have a person to see him off when he left.
Li Gang was originally a talented and ambitious person with lofty ideals.
Helplessly, the open and secret battles in the palace over the years have made him more and more fond of playing tricks.
Especially when he was getting old, he hugged the big tree of the prince wholeheartedly, trying to wait for the prince to ascend the throne and be carefree for the rest of his life.
So many times, in order to maintain the reputation of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he will do things that are irrational, although he knows that it is not advisable, but he has to work hard to do it, and it has to be said that it is also a kind of sourness and sorrow in life.
Over the years, the friendship between him and the crown prince has gone beyond the ordinary teacher-student friendship.
I don't know who will continue to teach the prince after he leaves?
I don't know if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will think of himself at some point?
It is only when you lose that you realize that what you have lost is so important to you.
But what has been lost, can it be regained?
After all, the prince was still a child, and when he first heard that the prince Li Gang was expelled from Chang'an.
Ten-year-old Li Chengqian burst into tears.
Over the years, he has already regarded this teacher who has been teaching him as his own family.
Now that he was directly expelled from Chang'an by his father, he couldn't even realize the opportunity to see him for the last time.
When Wu Puguang went to the East Palace to teach Li Chengqian.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was resistant, and the young man in front of him drove his teacher out of Chang'an alive. If it weren't for him, my father wouldn't have driven the teacher away.
So the prince began to desperately miss the first boy in his life in Linjia Village to call him a friend.
What a free-spirited, free-spirited, and unrestrained young man he was.
Compared to him, there is almost no difference between himself and living in a birdcage.
The father and mother have always said that they are born with great responsibilities.
Is it possible to lose the liveliness and happiness that should belong to one's age when the responsibility is great?
Is it a great responsibility, so we have to pretend to be an adult like a sensible person every day?
With hundreds of villagers joining, bricks began to pile up on the river beach like a mountain.
Sweat flowed down the bodies of every villager, and the same smile never disappeared from the cheeks of the villagers.
Such bricks, built in a house, are destined to be solid and reliable, warm in winter and cool in summer.
Thinking that they can live in a new house this winter and not have to endure the invasion of the cold north wind, the people's hearts are beautiful······" Sons, see Queen Mother. ”
"Cheng Qian, why is it so early today? Done with your schoolwork? ”
As the mother of the crown prince, Empress Changsun certainly knows that the teacher-student friendship between the prince and Li Gang will not be erased in the child's heart for a while.
"Queen Mother, why didn't Changle come today?"
Li Chengqian's eyes looked around, and sure enough, he didn't see Princess Changle.
"What? Cheng Qian misses Changle? ”
Empress Eldest Sun looked at the crown prince lovingly and asked.
"Well, it's been a long time since I've seen the imperial sister."
"Changle went to Linjia Village today, and he left the palace early in the morning."
"Queen Mother, the royal sister has gone to Linjia Village·····"
When the crown prince Li Chengqian heard this, his eyes immediately turned into little stars.
As a prince, he is really envious of Changle, and during this time, because of the teacher's departure, he only thinks of the young man in Linjia Village, his only friend.
Prince Li Chengqian felt a little warm in his heart.
"Your father asked Changle to go out of the palace, do you think that as a prince and princess, you can leave the palace casually? What's more, Changle left the palace for official business, and to tell you the truth, your father asked Changle to go to Linjia Village to get the method of making salt. ”
Empress Eldest Sun replied truthfully.
"I see, the queen mother, the sons are waiting for Changle to return to the palace here with the queen mother."
Li Chengqian obediently sat beside Empress Changsun.
"Okay, can the queen mother still drive you away?"
Empress Eldest Sun lovingly stroked Li Chengqian's black hair and opened her mouth to respond.
"Is Miss Li in such a hurry to leave?"
Lin Ran said with a little disappointment, he thought that Miss Li would be the same as before, and she would have lunch before leaving.
"Lin Gongzi, now the shortage of salt in the army is very serious, I heard my father talk about it yesterday, it is serious to the point that the army is discouraged, since the son has this method of making salt, this girl must immediately convey it to the father for the son, this time the court will definitely have a heavy reward, Lin Gongzi is waiting for the reward in Linjia Village."
Princess Changle flashed a pair of beautiful big eyes and replied.
"In this case, the next time the two girls come back, my son will invite the two girls to taste the new food in Linjia Village."
"Okay, thank you Gongzi Lin. Li Le said goodbye······"
After saying that, Princess Changle and Miss Cuizhu turned around and left the camp and walked towards the avenue.
Lin Ran suddenly remembered the French fries he had made for Miss Li Le some time ago, so he quickly returned to his room, took out the French fries, and ran quickly towards the carriage on the avenue.
"Miss Li Le, wait for me ······"
At the moment when the carriage was about to start, Lin Ran's voice sounded in Princess Changle's ears.
"Manager Huang, don't leave ······ yet"
Princess Changle stepped out of the carriage with the support of the Cuizhu girl.
"Miss Li Le, give... For you, this is a snack made especially for you, sweet and delicious, the girl will definitely like it. ”
Looking at Lin Ran, who was sweating profusely, Princess Changle was moved and didn't know what to do, this young man must have spent a lot of effort to make this bag of snacks for himself, right?
"Thank you, Childe, come, wipe your sweat."
Princess Changle took out an embroidered handkerchief and pointed her toes, and carefully wiped the sweat beads from her face for Lin Ran.
"Childe, this handkerchief will be given to Childe······" Princess Changle blushed slightly, stuffed the handkerchief into Lin Ran's hand, and took a large bag of French fries in Lin Ran's arms.
Under Lin Ran's gaze, he climbed the carriage.
Lin Ran watched the carriage disappear without a trace, and was still standing in place.
The fragrance of the handkerchief has been permeating Lin Ran's ears... For a long time, he refused to disperse.
The bag of French fries was indeed made by Lin Ran specifically for Miss Li Le, in fact, it was very simple, but it was made by cutting sweet potatoes into strips and drying them on the roof.
However, the dried fries have a lot of Najue flavor, and the sugar content of the sweet potatoes is not damaged at all, and the taste is more evocative.
"Your Highness, open it and see what the fries are here?"
Miss Cuizhu boldly looked at Princess Changle, who was blushing and smirking with French fries, and said.
"Well, open it and take a look."
When Princess Changle heard this, she stopped smirking and carefully opened the package.
A pile of golden fries jumped into the eyes of the two girls.
"Cuizhu, let's try one."
Princess Changle picked a large strip and handed it to Miss Cuizhu.
For this palace maid who follows him all day long, Changle has long regarded her as a sister in his heart.
"Your Highness, it's so delicious, so sweet······"
Cuizhu's happy eyes narrowed into a slit, and Mei Zizi said.
"Really?"
When Changle heard this, he immediately picked out a french fries and carefully put it in his mouth.
In an instant, when the teeth and fries collided together, Princess Changle's whole expression was different.
"It's really delicious······"
Princess Changle chewed contentedly, and a happy smile rippled on the little girl's face, refusing to disperse for a long time······
"Father, mother. Changle is back·····"
Princess Changle entered the Lizheng Hall like a wind, holding a large bag of fries tightly in her arms, and said happily.
"Why did you return so soon, and the father and mother thought that our little princess would return after lunch. That's why your father is still in the imperial study to review the folds. ”
"Mother, this matter is big. Seeing that his father was in a hurry, Erchen didn't dare to delay for a moment, so when he got the method of making salt, Erchen hurried back. ”
"What a sensible and good boy, my father and mother don't feel sorry for you in vain, I know that I feel sorry for my father. What is Changle holding in his arms? ”
Empress Changsun took the salt making method handed over by Princess Changle, looked at the package in Changle's arms, and asked curiously.
"What's this? This is the French fries made by Lin Gongzi and sent to Changle to taste. Come, Queen Mother, Brother Emperor, you also taste ······"
Princess Changle was very generous to Empress Changsun and Prince Li Chengqian, and each carefully selected a french fry.
Empress Changsun and Prince Li Chengqian, after putting the French fries that Princess Changle reluctantly handed over into their mouths, their eyes instantly lit up.
"Imperial sister, this is made of sweet potatoes."
The crown prince Li Chengqian said in an extremely affirmative tone.
"How did the royal brother know?"
Princess Changle couldn't help but be curious.
When did this brother know that this was made from sweet potatoes?
"Because the royal brother has eaten sweet potatoes in Linjia Village, it is full of sweet potatoes, but I don't know what method Lin Gongzi used to make it look like this, it is both beautiful and chewy, Changle, how about another one?"
