Riding on the roof, the salty wind of the sea blew these words to the ground and became very light, and took on a faint smell of sadness that did not belong to the manic and vast sea.

Silence ensued, save for the clanging of hammers on the shovels and the clanging of tiles.

Lin Xi tilted his head, unconsciously his neck was a little sore, the figure on the roof just blocked the dazzling sunlight, and the hot air at noon accompanied by the water vapor on the tiles produced a tortuous and magical light, and it seemed that the world was distorted in the steaming.

After a long time, the water in the tin pot boiled, and the last tile on the roof was put in order.

Before going down the ladder again, squinting at the straightness of the tiles with one eye according to the habit of his previous life, Chen Jian knew that the girl below liked neat and orderly things.

Under the house, on a small table, two cups of bamboo-colored tea, and two hands each holding a cup of red clay.

The short spear that was within reach finally left Jian Chen's sight, and the hard flint was also removed and placed in a wooden box with a layer of lime dry.

"Did you learn this because of your father's dream?"

"On the one hand. But the legacy my parents left me gave me the right to be independent, so I could do what I loved. If I didn't have this money, even if I wanted to do anything, I would need my body to support me. ”

Lin Xi half-held the mud cup and said slowly: "When I was a child, when I looked through "Baicao Collection", I felt that it was very messy inside, and I didn't like messy and untidy things since I was a child. I thought, there must be a way to make everything in the world neatly classified, find out their similarities and differences, maybe there really are some rules in it. ”

"Since there are rules in nature, chemistry, and arithmetic, then these flowers, trees, birds, beasts, fish and insects may have what kind of rules make them look like this."

"Later, my parents were gone, and my estate registration was enough that I didn't need to go to the workhouse, so I was admitted to the county's middle school, passed the township examination, and had the qualifications to take the Taixue examination, so that I could be an enlightened teacher no matter how poor I was. So I think I can at least live the life I want to live and have my own choices. ”

"I want to go to the best school in the capital, to study agriculture, to see the best botanical gardens in the whole of China, and those weird cultivation methods."

"But it all takes money. So I thought that I couldn't keep these flowers left by my father anymore, so I had to find a way to sell them. Because I don't have much money, and I can find a good home for these flowers, and don't let the flowers that my father brought back from the sea disappear. ”

"These flowers are not my father's relics; These flowers will not disappear if they live, and they may be useful in the future, they are my father's relics, and I don't think he will care about them. ”

In the end, after all, there was still some sadness, the verdant tea was rippled because of sadness, just as tears would not flow, in order to prevent the tea from ripping out, he hurriedly put the mud cup on the table and wiped his eyes.

"Look at me, I've said so much, but I didn't even ask you."

Lin Xi pursed his pale red lips and twitched his sour nose slightly, probably not wanting the atmosphere to become a feeling of pity in it, so he deliberately reversed the topic.

"Me? My name is Jian Chen, you know that. Come to think of it, if you ask me, I really don't have much to say. I used to talk to people with people who started with my father being a naval officer, and there really wasn't a conversation that started with me, because there was really nothing to say. Two words: alive. ”

Lin Xi smiled, half mocking and half praising and said, "Now you finally have something to say." At least they managed to find out where I lived, and they helped me with their hands and feet. It's just a pity. ”

"What a pity?"

"It's a pity that your mind is in the wrong place. You should meet a girl who likes military achievements, and then you will find a way to cheer yourself up and earn merit. Even if it's just for a while, it's always good for you. ”

Both of them laughed, no longer the one trying to listen to the other, but with a hint of fear.

After chatting for a while, it was not too late in terms of time and height of the sun, but it was too late for the acquaintance of the two people.

Getting up to say goodbye, the horse was already waiting impatiently outside, skillfully stepped on the horse's back, waved at Lin Xi, and walked towards the city.

Lin Xi stood in front of the fence, holding the sharp wooden fence with both hands, looked at the back of the distant sun for a while, and sighed slightly.

Or if you live alone for a long time, it's hard for someone to chat with you, and today I always feel that there are too many things to say.

The man who rode away didn't seem annoying for a while, especially when he talked about some plants and animals, and even said a few things that sounded reasonable, and there was even an argument about birds and bats.

"Actually, it's good to have someone who can talk."

Somehow, she suddenly said this to the fence, then turned and left.

On the way back to the city, the feeling of bumps on horseback is very suitable for thinking and reminiscing, even if the horse under the crotch is not an old horse, but it also knows the way home, and there is no need to control the reins, and it is obvious that the horse is hungry and walks fast.

Thinking back to the girl he met but didn't know, Jian Chen's heart was warm, and he turned to recall the bits and pieces that had just happened, and a trace of something suddenly flashed in his mind, but it was like lightning that crossed the night sky, definitely appeared but couldn't catch it.

When he was halfway there, Jian Chen suddenly remembered the rows of flowers, and then thought of the strange and familiar name of Junzi Orchid, and the thought in his mind finally became clear.

These days, he has been thinking about what to do with the first pot of gold, and has come up with all the ideas that can be cheated and abducted, but the reality is more bizarre than he imagined, and the little things he thought about have basically been put into practice.

The first pot of gold of several in Mincheng is quite thoughtful.

For example, when repairing the seawall, more than 900 people were deliberately drowned by digging irrigation water, and half of the compensation was deducted; For example, applying lacquer in public baths and opening a medical hall opposite; For example, collusion with pirates, robbery of merchant ships, dividends, and so on.

It's all a little familiar, but it's happening in a different way in a different time and space, and people everywhere are the same.

Letting go of all the ridiculous and insistent ideas of his previous life, and integrating the shamelessness of criticism into the blood of this life, Chen Jian finally understood what the thoughts that flashed before him were.

So he turned his horse's head and ran towards the wooden house, which was already far away.

The horse under the crotch was very reluctant and dissatisfied, but it was uncomfortable by the iron thorns in the heel, and only succumbed to the obscenity of the master and rose up to the hooves.

Standing in front of the fence again, shouting the name of the owner of the house loudly, and when Lin Xi appeared outside the house again, his face was a little angry.

Jian Chen was afraid that she would think crookedly, so he hurriedly shouted: "I have thought of a way to sell flowers, which can make a lot of money, enough for you to do what you want." ”

Lin Xi's annoyed face became a little stunned, and he saw that Jian Chen did not dismount or approach the wooden door, but just shouted outside, and finally smiled.

Leaning on the small fence in front of the wooden house, he bent over and smiled, "You're here to tell me this?" ”

"That's right. But I have one condition. ”

Lin Xi's heart thumped, frowning, for fear that the other party would say something ugly, and was about to refuse, so he heard shouting outside: "My condition is ...... The next time I talk to you, don't take that gun out again. I'm going to go back and think about it, and I'll tell you when I'm done, but I already have an idea. ”

After speaking, he whistled at the girl, clamped the war horse between his legs, and escaped into the sunset.

In the distance, the sea breeze blowing from the east sent an intermittent word to Chen Jian's ears.

"Good! I promise you not to take out the musket next time. ”
