Chapter 83: Cheng Biting Jin Personally Tries Qu Yuan Plow
After Li Ke finished speaking to Wang Kai, he turned back to Kong Jingrou and said, "Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, then I can plow the land for you." ”
Kong Jingrou could hear that Li Ke was particularly heavy on the word cultivated land. At the same time, he also had a malicious smile on his face.
Kong Jingrou naturally understood the meaning of Li Ke's words, so she couldn't help but reddened her temples. and glared at Li Ke fiercely, and then stopped paying attention to Li Ke.
At this time, Li Ke supported the curved plough pulled by the ox and began to continue plowing the land. The speed at which the ox pulls the plough is very slow, even if there is a curved plough for a day. However, this made Li Ke seem more leisurely.
Just after Li Ke cultivated for a while, the team of men and horses came over. And the first person to sit on the war horse was Li Chengqian, the crown prince of the dynasty.
Seeing Li Chengqian coming over, Li Ke stopped plowing the cattle. Then hurriedly came in the direction of Li Chengqian.
Coming to Li Chengqian, Li Ke personally helped Li Chengqian off the war horse. And said to Li Chengqian: "The younger brother is late to greet His Royal Highness the Prince, and I hope His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not blame." ”
"Why is the third brother so polite, although this palace is the crown prince, but after all, he is still the third brother's royal brother. Why should brothers do the same thing? Li Chengqian said to Li Ke with a smile.
"As the saying goes, the courtesy of a monarch and a minister cannot be abolished. Although the younger brother is the younger brother of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. But he is also a courtier of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Li Ke waved his hand and said with a straight face.
"Forget it, don't say that anymore. This palace heard that the third brother was plowing the fields, so he was interested for a while, so he took Lu Guogong and everyone to take a look. Li Chengqian said to Li Ke with a smile.
"The younger brother is just a whim, ready to plant an acre of cotton. When the time comes, let Jingrou make them into cotton clothes and quilts, and honor them to her father and queen. That's why I came with Jingrou. Li Ke waved his hand and said to Li Chengqian.
At the same time, Kong Jingrou also came over and gave Li Chengqian a blessing. Then he spoke: "Brother-in-law Kong Jingrou, see His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
"Brother and sister, please get up, just now I heard the third brother in the palace say that the younger brother and sister will personally sew cotton clothes and present them to the father and mother. After returning to the palace, this matter will inevitably be reported to the father and mother. Let the emperor and the queen mother know the filial piety of the younger siblings. Li Chengqian opened his mouth and said to Kong Jingrou.
"These are all things that a brother and daughter-in-law should do, and if you dare to bother His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and mention such a trivial matter in front of his father and mother?" Kong Jingrou said.
Just when Li Chengqian and Li Ke were chatting, Cheng Yanjin, who came with him, found that the plowstick used by Li Ke was different from the ordinary plowstick.
Then he stepped forward and said, "Lord Wang, Lao Cheng, I see that the plowstick you use seems to be very different from the ordinary plowstick?" ”
"Lu Guogong is right, this is called Quyuan plow. It was made by the prince, and the effect of plowing the land is very good. Kong Jingrou said to Cheng Yanjin with a proud face.
This trip to bite gold is from a poor people's background, and he naturally knows a lot about this ploughstick. Hearing Kong Jingrou say that it was researched by Li Ke, she couldn't help but be stunned.
To be honest, Li Ke didn't want to be so high-profile. After all, obscene development is Li Ke's creed. But now Kong Jingrou has said that this curved plough was made by herself. If you want to shirk it now, I'm afraid it won't work.
So he smiled and said, "Do you want Lu Guogong to give it a try?" Only after trying it will you know if it works well. ”
"The third brother is right, why don't you give Lu Guogong a try for the palace. After trying to get results, let's go back and tell my father, if it's really like what my brother and sister said, the third brother is a great achievement. Li Chengqian said with a smile.
Now that Li Chengqian has already spoken, Cheng Yanjin naturally can't say anything. However, at this time, Cheng Yanjin is already pot-bellied, and if he is asked to do farm work like I used to, I am afraid that he may not be able to do it.
But the words have already come to this, Cheng Yanjin can only grit his teeth and walk up. Li Ke also followed and explained to Cheng Yanjin the use of this quyuan plow.
After hearing this, Cheng Yanjin began to plow the land. At this start, Cheng Yanjin felt the difference. Because it is not as laborious as Cheng Yanjin thought, it is as laborious as the previous ploughing.
This couldn't help but make Cheng Yanjin smile, waving the whip in his hand while shouting non-stop. It's a lot of fun to play.
Li Chengqian looked at Cheng Yanjin's happy smile, and knew that this Quyuan plow must be very easy to use. So he said to Li Ke beside him: "After my father knows about this, he will definitely be happy." ”
"When the palace returns to Chang'an this time, the third brother must bring this quyuan plough back with the palace. also let my father see the masterpiece of the third brother. ”
"The royal brother loves his younger brother, but the younger brother just feels that ploughing the land is too laborious for a while. That's why I did this opportunistic thing. Li Ke said modestly.
At this time, Cheng Yanjin had already walked over with a big laugh, and said: "His Royal Highness King Qi, this is not an opportunistic shortcut, after this Quyuan plough is popularized in the world. The people of the world don't know how much benefit they want. ”
If you want to say that this Cheng Biting Jin is a wise and foolish person, don't look at his usual madness. But I have an abacus of my own.
Otherwise, how could a crazy person be able to enter the Lingyan Pavilion. Not only can you enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth, but in the end, you will also end up with a name for eternity.
Li Ke naturally couldn't underestimate Cheng Yanjin, and even felt that Cheng Yanjin was the most scheming person among the generals in the Wagang family.
So Li Ke said with a smile on his face: "When this king made this quyuan plow, he really didn't think about it so much. It seems that Lu Guogong is the one who knows the suffering of the people. ”
"My old Cheng is a hard-working man, although I haven't done any work in the field for long. But at least you know a thing or two. Cheng Yanjin said with a smile on his face.
At this time, Wang Tianlai on the side opened his mouth and said to Li Chengqian and Li Ke: "His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the King of Qi, this is not the place to speak. Do you think we'll talk in another place? ”
"Wang Tingshi is right, then ask the third brother to lead the way. I also asked Hongu to take a look at the third brother's house. Li Chengqian nodded and said.
"It was the younger brother who ignored it for a while, so that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been exposed to the wind and sun here for so long." Li Ke said to Li Chengqian apologetically.
Then he led the way with Kong Jingrou and took Li Chengqian and his party to his palace. and instructed Gao Kan to take things back for the time being.
However, Li Ke did not let Gao Kan take Qu Yuan Plough away, but left it to those people. Let them follow the shape of the curved plough and build more curved ploughs.
