Animals need to take time to adapt to one environment and another unfamiliar environment, in fact, the same is true for people, Li Linpu is suddenly in a high position, if this kind of person can't control his heart well, it will be easy to lose himself.

After listening to Li Chengqian's explanation, the eldest grandson didn't want to say anything, she had experienced too much of this kind of thing, and naturally she knew the truth, but she was just a slave maid, and she couldn't be blamed for it if she helped in her love for many years.

The snow in spring tends to pile on top of each other, pressing the branches very low, and gradually breaking the branches, and throughout the afternoon, the sound of the branches being "clicked" in the mountains is constantly heard.

Early the next morning, the spring rain that had been coming to an end for many days finally stopped, and the spring snow in the mountains began to melt, reflecting the warm morning sunshine, and the air seemed to be a little clearer than before.

Li Chengqian took his eldest grandson and Wang Zichu to Zhuangzi at the foot of the mountain, the village was much bigger than a few years ago, and Mai Jicai was the group of brothers and family members of Scarface, plus the families of the brothers in the past, and settled here, although it was in a remote location, but it was extremely rich.

As soon as the gate of the village opened, the convoy waiting outside the door roared in and walked towards the various workshops built in the village.

The eldest grandson's smile has not stopped from the moment he entered the Zhuangzi, the new blue brick courtyard, the flat bluestone ground, everything is as if it has just been built, occasionally a few naughty children jump and walk by, looking at Li Chengqian is not afraid, just holding a wooden knife and a wooden sword, riding a broom pole and running in front of Li Chengqian Looking at everyone and raising their heads:

"Phew! Come by common name! ”

“？”

Before Li Chengqian could speak, the few guards behind the eldest grandson were about to draw their knives in an instant, but the knives had not yet been unsheathed, but Erhan and the others had already stopped in front of the guards. His eyes looked at a few spare bodies coldly, and the horizontal knife in his hand was clenched, which was just a sign that he was about to go out if he didn't agree with each other.

"Erhan!"

Li Chengqian scolded, and then turned around and retreated after just one sentence, and several Qianniu also stood with their knives in their bodies, but their expressions seemed a little unnatural.

I saw a gorgeously dressed woman hurriedly walked over, stepped forward to grab the child, and slapped the ass twice, the first child was taken down by the mother, and the remaining few immediately dispersed as birds and beasts.

The eldest grandson smiled, and the prince on the side was also laughing at first glance, but a few Qianniu Bei's face was not good-looking, did he take a look at the two people on the side, obviously what happened to the other party was rooted in his heart.

"The first-class people have no temper and ability, the second-class people have the temper and ability, and the third-class people have the temper and no ability, if you see that they are not pleasing to the eye, you can find a leisure time to provoke, what kind of ability is staring?" After the eldest grandson finished speaking, he ignored the preparations, turned around and turned the pouting child who was a little stuffy, squatted down and wiped his tears for him while saying, "Where are you?" ”

The woman's face turned a little red, and after a long time, she looked at Li Chengqian and nodded, and then said: "The husband is the prince's right guard and Mai Jicai." ”

The eldest grandson turned around and glanced at Li Chengqian, and asked softly, "The clansmen of Wulie Gong (Mai Tiecan)?" ”

"It's the grandson of Gong Wulie."

Hearing this, the eldest grandson just nodded, looking at the kid's stubbornness that didn't cry even if he grinned in pain, and was a little surprised: "What's your name?" How old are you? Does it hurt for A-Niang to hit you? ”

Who knew that the little rabbit cub didn't say a word, and said: "My name is Mai Weien, and I am eight years old this year." As he spoke, he turned around and made a grimace towards Li Chengqian, "My mother's beating is like tickling, it doesn't hurt, and I cry a lot." ”

The eldest grandson was stunned when he heard this: "For grace? ”

"My mother said that Uncle Prince saved me, let me practice martial arts well, and be Uncle Prince's guard in the future."

Li Chengqian pursed his lips and said, "It's another unproductive one!" ”

The eldest grandson glanced at Li Chengqian and was about to speak, but saw a large number of guards appear behind him, Li Er was wearing regular clothes, smiled at everyone, and when he saw everyone saluting, he only waved his hand and said, "Get up." ”

Li Er's favorite is to come to this Zhuangzi from time to time, one is to relax the body and mind, and the other is the change of the new love of this Zhuangzi, Li Chengqian as a landlord, he will take care of the Zhuangzi very well, from the beginning of the wooden village road to the later mud house, from which dilapidated courtyards, to the development of a series of buildings today, everything seems to be a microcosm of this world, from nothing, from there to fine.

The men are well-dressed and fit, the women are gorgeously dressed, the children are naughty and cute, and he has thought countless times that if there is such a scene everywhere in the world, then how rich will Datang be.

Cheng Qian, walking with me, patted the child named Mai Weien as he spoke, and said loudly: "Be for Fei Li Guang, don't win Zhao Kuo, if one day I see you in the merit book of the expedition, I will restore the glory of your family!" ”

The little guy smiled and said, "If there is really such a day, the kid given by His Majesty will definitely not receive it!" ”

When everyone heard this, they turned their heads in unison, only to see him say loudly: "Uncle Prince once wrote a poem and said: Why don't men take Wu Hook and collect fifty states in Yinshan." Please go to the Xuanzheng Palace temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis? What I want, expand the land and open up Jianger! ”

"Good! Good ambition! But this wooden sword and wooden sword can't kill the enemy," he said, unsheathing his saber and putting it in the child's hand, "So, I'm waiting for you!" ”

After saying that, he smiled, turned to look at an official behind him and said, "I'm a big Tang Dangxing!" Ha ha! ”

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

*******************

In the distance, the cold mountains overlap, the cliffs stand in a forest, under the mountains and forests, a water goes east, the river is not big, just a person is deep, one zhang wide, the frozen water is beginning to thaw, even if the fish in the water are also some lazy potential river bottom, it only moves in the middle of the night.

Li Er was lying on the recliner by the river, holding a long pole in his hand, and some pastries and fruits were placed around him, and the eldest grandson was making tea on the mat sitting by the river, the water was spring water in the mountains, and the tea was the new early spring fried tea in Jiangnan.

"In the future, it is better to reduce the expenses in this palace, Gongcha? It's wasted. ”

Li Chengqian pursed his lips, grabbed a handful of fish food and threw it into the water first, and then shaved the hook.

"Tribute! Tribute: famous, special, excellent, new tea recipes, if it is ordinary and I don't know when it can be promoted, but if the royal starts. ”

Li Er smiled and raised the teacup and took a sip, first bitter and then sweet, there was some grass and tree fragrance between his lips and teeth, and when he looked down, the tea soup was clear and the color was like amber.

"It's also a living man's livelihood, and a living man is good! Be extravagant. ”

"Not only can you live, but you can also get rich, Hangzhou County Shou reported last month, last year, this tea tax alone has accounted for thirty percent of the tax, plus the wine business tax, but it has accounted for sixty and a half percent of the county's tax revenue."

It was Fang Xuanling who spoke, and Du Ruhui on the side nodded with a pale face and said: "The former minister and the prince discussed the national tax, the prince sighed that the agricultural tax was too high, and the minister also argued, but the prince has a strong ambition, if one day he should abandon the agricultural tax, the minister will be happy, but now it is not easy to say." ”

Li Er glanced at Li Chengqian, who was lying on the recliner, and scolded with a smile: "The sage of the prince, his sage is to put the people first, think about people and dare not think, be a man and dare not do." Although it is often surprising, it is often reasonable when you think about it. He looked at the minister behind him and said, "If one day, if the world really abandons agricultural taxes, why do you think?" ”

"Your Majesty shall be glorious through the ages!"

Li Er smiled and said, "It's all to make me happy." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Li Er's fish hook move, Li Er hurriedly pulled the hook, but saw a fat big fish being lifted up, looked at the carp weighing more than ten catties on the hook, and laughed: "How?" ”

"Hehe~" Li Chengqian laughed, and it was at this time that his fish was also hooked: "Ha!" It must be a big fish! ”

mentioned the fish hook, and his face instantly turned a little red.

"Haha! ~What a big fish! Li Er sat on the chair and laughed heavily, the ministers all laughed, and the eldest grandson held back for a long time before he burst out laughing.

Li Chengqian looked at the finger-length crucian carp on the hook, his face was pale, and he looked at a black shadow that disappeared in the water, and gritted his teeth with hatred. After a while, he said: "My father is worthy of being the Khan of the sky, this landscape has a spirit, and I also want to pat my father's sycophants!" ”

Li Er laughed, took a sip of tea and said, "Say it!" What the hell is the idea? ”

Li Chengqian smiled and said: "Father really knows everything, the day before yesterday, my father agreed to me to build the Kewu Academy, and the child will repay Li today and present the first achievement of the Kewu Academy!" ”

Li Er pointed at Li Chengqian and said to the ministers: "Sure enough, it's not profitable, let's say, how much money do you want this time?" ”

"If the emperor thinks this thing is useful, it's not too late to raise the price." As he spoke, he got up and said, "Please also ask my father to move to the workshop." ”

Everyone marched all the way, although it was in the mountains, but the road was built very neatly, the road was also very tidy, there were several acres of self-cultivated mountain fields on both sides of the road, and several peasant men were cultivating it, and they thought that they were also beginning to prepare for the spring ploughing for a living.

Li Chengqian has always disliked noisy factories, so the workshops in the village are built far away, where there is a flat river, and the grass and trees are also treated very cleanly, if it hadn't rained a few days ago, you would definitely see the dust flying in the sky and the black smoke flying everywhere.

Each person was given a mask made of cotton and linen, and brought it to his mouth under the confusion of everyone.

"To put it bluntly, this thing is made of stone powder, and some messy things are fired." As he spoke, he said hello to the steward here, called two bags of burned cement to come, and asked someone to start stirring.

This substance is called cement, which is mixed with water to form a slurry, which can harden in air or better harden in water, has high hardness, and can resist the erosion of fresh water or salt water. The main role is: build a city! Road! Build houses, build dikes. ”

In the surprised eyes of everyone, Li Chengqian asked people to carry over two cement blocks that had been dried, took the hammer handed by the servant and said, "Do you have one style?" ”

Li Er frowned and looked at it for a while, eager to try, but on the side, Cheng took the hammer and turned it upside down, and said to everyone: "I'll try it!" ”
