Chapter 25: The Red Moon Crushes the City and Wants to Destroy It, and the Black Clouds Are Not Recovered (8)
This world has always been the law of the jungle, no matter who you are, how much power, how much money, sitting on a million tigers, once an enemy comes to you, then all of this will turn into floating clouds. At this time, apart from the armor on your body, the only hope of saving you is your personal bodyguard, although it may only give you a chance to survive.
Of course, having something is better than nothing.
In the thousands of years of splendid civilization in the land of China, in the successive dynasties, the word "loyalty" is a spiritual sword interspersed with the blood and tears of history. Whether it is the 3,000 guests who are looking for King Wen, or the Fang Xiaoru who scolded Chengzu in the Battle of Jingjing, they are all using their bodies and flesh and blood to implement this unswerving creed until death.
Death for a confidant! Eternal and unchanging.
Li Guanghang deeply understands the benefits and disadvantages of this, and one more personal customer is one more capital and hope to survive. Who is the old lady? can lay a world in this bloody Jiangnan business community, and get a bite to eat, how can you not see the world's major events clearly, the building of the Ming Dynasty will collapse, and it has already been interpreted in the eyes of the old lady. But like most Jin merchants and Hui merchants, the old lady is also a mercenary businessman after all, and what he wants to do is just to protect the interests of the family and make a living in troubled times.
After all, for some businessmen, the change of dynasty is not as real as money.
So most of the time, businessmen are strong and strong, and they always form a village to protect themselves in times of war. Whether it is a thief or a Qing army that enters the customs later, they don't do much about this kind of small Zhuangzi whose defense is comparable to that of a big city. In a fort, the people of a family work together to resist the enemies who try to threaten the safety of the family. Just like the People's Republic of China in later generations, the people of the whole country were united in the face of foreign aggression.
Because, the country, is a home.
We are the clansmen of this family, and the feelings of family and country have been flowing in the blood of the sons and daughters of China from the beginning to the present.
Cao Jie's selection and gift was considered by the old lady for the benefit of the family, that is, the safety of Li Guanghang, who is the heir of the family.
Of course, the old lady's vision is beyond doubt, and after observing for the past few days, the old lady has seen many things the old lady wants from Cao Jie's body.
The youthfulness of not being involved in the world, the simple and unpretentious vision, the patience of not being impatient in the face of trouble, and even the respect for the elderly have left a deep reflection in the eyes of the old lady.
Of course, the most important point is Cao Jie's superb martial arts and excellent military qualities.
The old lady heard Cao Jie talk about it, and one of Cao Jie's ancestors was related to the Huai Army established by Qi Jiguang and Qi Shaobao, the gods of war who dominated the Ming Dynasty for thousands of miles.
The old lady had tentatively asked many questions about the art of war, such as the debate on putting death to life; The upper army is attacked, the second is the enemy, the second is the army, and the next is to attack the city; Whoever fights, with the right combination, with the odd victory; Those who are good at fighting are invincible first, so that the enemy can be victorious, and they cannot be defeated by themselves, but they can be defeated by the enemy; Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles; Knowing oneself without knowing the other, one wins and one loses; I don't know who I am, I don't know myself, I will die in every battle, and so on and so on and so on in the classic tactics in "The Art of War". Cao Jie knows almost everything.
The old lady asked Cao Jie to do some farm work, and Cao Jie's actions of working also made the old lady very happy. Cao Jie knows how to turn the soil correctly with a shovel, and Cao Jie says that this will make the soil softer, and it will also help the growth of vegetable roots and the absorption of nutrients. After the soil was turned, Cao Jie used an iron rake to break up the large clods of soil, and then leveled the turned soil.
The old lady gave Cao Jie a total of three kinds of rapeseeds, namely nepeta, jade cauliflower, and beans, and the old lady asked Cao Jie to divide the vegetable plot into three pieces according to my opinion, and each field was served with different vegetables.
A small piece of land in the west of the back garden is planted with jade cauliflower, Cao Jie evenly sprinkled the black oil jade cauliflower seeds in the ground, and then raked it a few times with an iron rake to bury the vegetable seeds in the soil.
There is a large piece of land in the east of the back garden, which is divided into two small pieces by the old lady, one is planted with nepeta, and the other is planted with beans, and the planting method of nepeta is basically the same as that of jade cauliflower. The planting method of beans is very different, Cao Jie first used a shovel to turn over a few ridges of soil, Cao Jie said that this is easy to water, can better maintain the moisture of the soil, after the ridge is turned over, Cao Jie began to dig pits by hand, each pit is about 3-4 cm deep, every 15 centimeters to dig a pit, Cao Jie dug all the pits alone, then put the bean seeds in the pit, put 4-5 carob seeds in each pit, and finally Cao Jie then put each small pit with seeds covered with soil, flattened by hand, so that the beans are planted.
In the eyes of the old lady, Cao Jie is simply an all-round talent, superb martial arts, excellent military quality, and skilled farming skills, if it weren't for Cao Jie being a man and not having the right household, maybe the old lady would tie the knot with Li Guanghang and Cao Jie.
However, who made Cao Jie a man? Can't you be a wife, can't you be a brother? Carry forward the spirit of hard work, and teach Li Guanghang, a flower that grows in a greenhouse, to experience the life of ordinary people.
Of course, the old lady thinks too much, and when it comes to agriculture, in this world, if Li Guanghang dares to say second, no one dares to say first.
Whether it was during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression or the War of Liberation, Li Guanghang was sent to the countryside many times, and he had an incomparable advantage over the experience and practical skills of modern agriculture.
Of course, Li Guanghang knew the old lady's good intentions, but he felt a little uncomfortable, after all, a modern person, suddenly someone took your hand and said that he hired a bodyguard who was willing to risk his life for you for free, normal people would feel awkward.
Li Guanghang can only say that he is a party member who has experienced the Cultural Revolution and enjoys the superior conditions from the feudal landlord class.
Capitalism of all evils!
Evil feudalism!
The evil landlord class!
Li Guanghang had mixed feelings in his heart, but he still gave Cao Jie a bright smile and subconsciously stretched out his hand to Cao Jie.
"Suffered!" Li Guanghang thought to himself, "I forgot to shake hands at this time!" Li Guanghang's heart became more and more embarrassed.
Cao Jie and the old lady were even more confused, they didn't understand what Li Guanghang wanted to do at all, and the three of them looked at each other.
Only Li Ling stared at the vegetarian pork ribs brought by a maid, drooling in a daze.
"Inside, let's eat first, the dish is going to be cold."
