Chapter 60: Qingfeng
In the era of slash-and-burn farming, it is sometimes not so easy to achieve an extra three or five buckets, and the two Zhuangzi have the help of new farm tools, the prototype of deep ploughing has appeared, and the extra harvest of dozens of catties per mu is the grace of God for the peasant family, and the heavy grain is loaded into the warehouse and immediately has the confidence to save life.
Seeing the water wheel on Zhang Shun's side, all the farmers wanted to plant wheat in their fields. Xiao Zheng hurriedly suppressed everyone's impulse, and said to the villagers with a smile If it is done next year, everyone will plant wheat, if not, I can afford to eat Zhang Shun's dozens of people, in case there is a mistake in all the wheat, everyone will drink the wind next year, I Xiao can't afford to raise so many people, and the waterwheel is not enough, everyone didn't insist on it anymore when they heard it.
After sacrificing heaven and earth and the god of agriculture, the Mid-Autumn Festival arrived, and with the joy of the harvest, Xiao Hai and Xiao Zheng brought the villagers of the two villages to the grain field of Lizhuang, and the two of them paid for wine and food to invite the people on the two villages to have a good time.
When I was ready to go out, Wuhua screamed in the backyard, forget it, pulled three cows and dragged food out of the door, just arrived at the door Jin'er saw Wuhua following her, and suddenly became naughty, standing on the steps and jumping on the back of Wuhua.
"Hey..."Xiao Zheng didn't have time to stop it, the cow is usually very docile in life, except for the buffalo can sometimes let people ride, once someone rides the ox, it will go crazy, and when it jumps, it has to turn the things on its back upside down and pull it down.
Just when Xiao Zheng and the others were screaming and worried, they didn't expect that Wuhua just moved, and when they looked back, they saw Jin'er standing firmly in place and didn't move, so let Jin'er ride it! Jin'er happily sat on the back of the five flowers and laughed, patted the five flowers' neck, and walked forward very obediently.
When she was about to see the threshing floor in Li Zhuang, Jin'er shouted again, "Wuhua, run!" After hearing this, Wuhua whispered, as if she understood Jin'er's words, and rushed out in front of Xiao Zheng and the villagers, and Jin'er's happy laughter came from afar.
The round moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival rose, lit a bonfire, laid the mat to the ground and laid out the wine and food, three hundred people ate and drank happily together, the children were playing and running on the grain field, the bright bonfire reflected the red face, Xiao Zheng and Xiao Hai accompanied Xiao Hai's father, Wang Quan, Zhang Shun and several elders to sit together, knowing that Xiao Zheng could drink, Xiao Hai specially asked people to put a few more jars of wine in front of him.
Lao Zhang Shun went from great sorrow to great joy this year, and today is also three bowls of wine and his stomach is full of excitement, he never thought that more than a dozen women working in the pharmaceutical workshop would settle their wages and each person earn five yuan, which is enough for the family to live comfortably for a year.
Until now, I still don't believe how these women make so much money, but this pile of copper coins is placed at home, which makes Lao Zhang Shun feel more cordial and grateful to Xiao Zheng and the villagers in Zhuangzi. In fact, what he didn't know was that this small pharmaceutical workshop gave Xiao Zheng and the two of them a full income of six thousand in one summer!
When Zhou Bingrui came out of Chang'an City, Bai Chuanli told Zhou Bingrui, Xiao Zheng, don't look at your young age, you will have a bright future in the future, you kid have to follow closely, and if you can't get the wealth of your life, point to him.
This uncle of mine has lived in Chang'an for a long time, and he has seen a lot of people of all colors, and it is the first time he has heard it when he says this, and the facts have proved that he has made more money in business than he has been doing business for half his life, and he can really make a fortune with Xiao Zheng, but he can't let this master run.
Toasted a few old people with a bowl of wine, a few old people were also very happy, Lao Wang Quan smiled and said that most of the people who have entered the soil have been cut off, and when they arrive, they can still see Zhuangzi Shangfa like this, and they didn't dare to think of it before. Xiao Zheng smiled and said to a few old people that this is just a starting point, and our Zhuangzi will be more prosperous in the future.
After discussing with a few old people, now that the weather is cold, the panacea will not be needed, so stop the pharmaceutical workshop first. After the festival, let Lao Zhang Shun light the fire of the brick kiln, since ancient times, the Chinese people have the money to repair the house first, and if they want to build it, they will build the house well, and let the villagers live comfortably.
After listening to it, Lao Zhang Shun patted his chest and let the villagers watch, this brick-burning thing was wrapped up in him, and his dozens of people suffered a great disaster, and were taken in by Mr. Xiao and the people in the village, and let the children study, and if they didn't do something for the villagers, they would have no face to see. Seeing that Lao Zhang Shun was so confident, Xiao Zheng saluted the old man again, and Lao Zhang fell on the mat as soon as he got soft after drinking--- drunk.
Full of wine and food, Ershunzi and a few people put a few big firewood on the fire, the blazing flames reflected the sky above Zhuangzi are bright, at first Jin'er and a few children danced around the fire in a circle, and then slowly joined more and more people, and finally Xiao Hai shouted a voice, all the people joined in, Ershunzi and several people also scattered the copper powder and iron powder and threw it into the fire, for a time the sky was red, the green flame was more gorgeous, and the cheerful voice resounded in the sky above Li Zhuang.......
At the second watch, the unfinished crowd began to slowly go home in groups, Xiao Zheng called out to his mother and Jin'er, Lao Wang Quan took the people in the village to walk in front, Xiao's mother and a few village women slowly followed, Jin'er rode the five flowers, and Xiao Zheng walked slowly behind with his hands.
The two of them talked and walked on the way back to the village, the moon was full in the Mid-Autumn Festival, the crooked country road was showered in the bright moonlight, Xiao Zheng held the five flowers, strolling on the road sprinkled with moonlight, not far away, a fragrance mixed with the smell of soil and wild flowers greeted the refreshing people, occasionally there were one or two insect chirps on the roadside, the gurgling water crossed the gravel in the river and made a gentle noise, and from time to time the village people came to the country tune and cheerful laughter.
Savoring the tranquility and tranquility of the countryside, looking up at the jade rabbit in the moon, Xiao Zheng told Jin'er the story of Chang'e running to the moon rendered by later generations, and Jin'er looked up at the moon and said: "I think the fairy Chang'e in the Guanghan Palace is envying our life at the moment."
"That is, although this life is limited, but the fireworks in this world are endless," Xiao Zheng said slowly.
Looking at this peaceful night, with a slight sense of wine, Xiao Zheng read:
The mica screen candle shadow is deep, and the long river gradually falls.
Chang'e should repent of stealing the elixir, and the blue sea and blue sky are night and night.
Riding on the five flowers, after Jin'er listened to this poem, she looked at Xiao Zheng's back and her eyes were a little confused, the two of them didn't talk much and entered the village, and helped Jin'er down at the door, Jin'er stood on the steps and said to Xiao Zheng: "If I were Chang'e, I would give you the medicine and make you an immortal, and then every time I was reincarnated, you let me marry me, this story is very bad, but I like the poem made by my husband."
Looking at Jin'er's slim appearance in the moonlight, he just hugged her over and wanted to kiss her, but his mouth was pushed away by Jin'er's hand, and he said: "The smell of wine stinks to death!" After speaking, he broke out of Xiao Zheng's arms and turned around and ran back to his room.
