Chapter 73: Door-to-door settling
There is a lot of land, and Zhou Jinyan beckoned: "Go and call Ah Da and five people to hoe this land." ”
"Oh."
Seaweed got up and trotted away.
Zhou Jinyan looked at her back for a while, retracted her gaze, and muttered: "It's still good in ancient times, such a little girl, in her own era, is the ancestor, where can she be so diligent." ”
It took most of the day's work for Zhou Jinyan and Seaweed to pick and plant all forty potatoes.
At this time, it was already late, Zhou Jinyan clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Just wait for the big harvest." ”
"What's the use of these potatoes?"
"It can be eaten," Zhou Jinyan thought for a while and added, "It can be eaten as a meal." ”
"Is it delicious?"
"It's delicious when you're hungry," Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "Although we don't die of hunger, for some people, being able to eat potatoes is much better than eating others." ”
Seaweed was confused, but she knew that the potatoes were a good thing.
Early the next morning, Zhou Jinyan freshened up and was just about to leave to go out, when he heard Fu Bo say outside: "Lang Jun, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has sent someone to come again." ”
"What?"
Zhou Jinyan walked out, "What are you sending someone to do?" ”
"I don't know, I just said I'm coming to visit this afternoon."
"I see."
Zhou Jinyan nodded.
Fu Bo hesitated: "Lang Jun, yesterday His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came down, nothing big happened, right?" ”
"What could happen?"
Fu Bo glanced at him cautiously, "I heard Seaweed say that you offended His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for her." ”
"Don't listen to her nonsense, this girl likes to put gold on her face. You just get used to it. ”
"Is Lang Jun going out?"
"Hmm." Zhou Jinyan thought for a while, "Go and get those movable type prints back." This thing can't be passed on. ”
Fu Bo was a little reluctant for him to ask for it, but he knew his little master, so he had to advise: "Bring Ah Da and them with you, just in case." ”
"I see."
Leaving nine guards to guard the door, Zhou Jinyan took Ah Da to Cai Guogong's mansion.
His house is not far from Cai Guogong's Mansion, but this walking around every day also makes Zhou Jinyan a little impatient.
I was thinking about what modern tools were good to make, which could be used as a means of transportation.
When he arrived at the door of Cai Guogong's mansion, he didn't think of any good way.
"Brother Zhou!"
Du Yanran waited for a long time, saw Zhou Jinyan, cheered, and hurriedly ran out from the steps of the gate.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I thought you weren't coming."
"How come," Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go and get the movable type printing back." ”
Du Yanran nodded her little head, tilted her head and asked, "Just the three of us?" ”
Zhou Jinyan was really afraid of any accidents, thought about it, and whispered: "You go back and call a few guards with strong martial arts?" ”
"Okay, you wait for me."
Du Yanran didn't say a word, turned around and ran in.
Zhou Jinyan sighed bluntly, he is also the second generation of officials, why is there such a big gap?
Du Yanran walked out with more than a dozen guards, and looked at Zhou Jinyan in a daze.
"That, Yanran, two or three are enough, it's a bit too much, others will think we're going to fight."
Du Yanran stuck out her tongue, "Okay." ”
The two took five guards and went all the way to the eldest grandson's house.
On the way, Du Yanran said nervously: "This is going to the eldest grandson's house?" ”
"He took out my movable type printing tools in the main hall, and did not go to him to find anyone."
Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "Let's just go to Shangmen to collect debts." ”
Du Yanran only felt her heart pounding, a little excited, and a little scared.
The two of them arrived in front of the Duke of Qi's mansion.
"Stop," the guard at the door, seeing that the two of them were not good, hurriedly stopped.
"I'm Zhou Jinyan, let the eldest grandson Chong return my things to me."
"What do you pay back?" The guard asked with an unkind look on his face.
"You go and inform him quickly," Zhou Jinyan glanced at him, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask." ”
The guard hesitated, turned back to speak to one man, and the man walked inside.
"You're waiting, someone has already gone to report."
Inside the Eldest Grandson's Mansion.
"Lang Jun, there is a person named Zhou Jinyan outside who is looking for something to ask you for."
The eldest grandson Chong was lying in the rocking chair, shaking, and when he heard the words, he jumped up instantly, gritted his teeth and said, "This kid still dares to come to me?" ”
The guards looked at him strangely.
"Go, call all the guards in the house, the old man must beat him this time so that he can't see his grandfather!"
The eldest grandson rushed out with dozens of guards in a fierce manner.
He saw Zhou Jinyan standing in front of everyone at a glance.
"Zhou Jinyan, you are so bold, you dare to come to my eldest grandson's mansion to spread wild."
The eldest grandson Chong walked in front and asked with a calm face.
"Eldest grandson Shaoqing, dissipate your anger," Zhou Jinyan said with a smile: "I'm just here to retrieve what belongs to me." ”
"What's that?"
"What you stole from."
The eyes of all the family members instantly looked at Changsun Chong.
"What are you looking at?" Eldest Sun Chong's face was blood-red, and he glared at the person fiercely, "I'm not stealing, I'm borrowing." ”
"Okay, good, borrow," Zhou Jinyan said impatiently, "Hurry up and return it to me." ”
"No, I've thrown them all."
Movable type printing is indeed a good thing, even if the eldest grandson is unhappy, he has to admit that this thing is very useful.
"Gone?" Zhou Jinyan said with a cold face: "If you don't have it, you have to accompany it, one is ten thousand, you can do it yourself." ”
"Ten thousand?" The eldest grandson was stunned for a moment, and then shouted: "Why don't you go and grab it?" ”
"I still sell a pack of spicy strips for 100 yuan, movable type printing is such a good thing, isn't it for your face, I will only charge 10,000 yuan?"
Zhou Jinyan said lazily: "Either pay me back or give money." ”
"You," the eldest grandson said with a fierce face, "So, do you plan to give up?" ”
Du Yanran said coquettishly: "It is natural to repay debts and money, are you going to pay back things, or are you going to go to jail?" ”
The eldest grandson swept his gaze over Du Yanran, greed flashed in his eyes, and he snorted: "When a man speaks, what does a woman interject?" ”
"I'll just say it."
After speaking, Du Yanran hid behind Zhou Jinyan and showed a small head, "Eldest Sun Chong, if you don't return the things to us, I will arrest you and take you to the official mansion today." ”
Eldest Sun Chong took a deep breath, "There are no things, no money, you have people to arrest me." ”
He pointed to the gate, "Whoever dares to enter my eldest grandson's house will break my leg for me." ”
"Eldest Sun Chong, it seems that you don't plan to die." Zhou Jinyan said lightly: "Your Majesty and the queen have helped you so much, are you still planning to shake out your ugly things?" I've seen a lot of bastards, and it's the first time I've encountered a bastard like you. ”
The eldest grandson clenched his fists tightly, and suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed, "Give it to me, don't beat it to death, it's mine." ”
