……

On the eighth day of November in the fifth year of Shengping, Chen Caozhi was the deceased mother's 25-month period of filial piety, and he returned to normal life.

In the afternoon of the ninth day of the first month, the seven scholars of the Qian and Tang dynasties all sent people to Chenjiawu to pay tribute to Chen's mother, the Li family, and the Hanmen Shu clan headed by Liu Jiabao also gathered in the Jade Emperor Mountain, although the Qiantang Chen clan has been listed as a scholar clan, but has not alienated those Shu people from the cold family is very close, although the other scholars of the Qian Tang Dynasty are quite critical of this, thinking that this is detrimental to the dignity of the scholars, but in recent years, the Qian Tang Chen clan is on the rise in both reputation and financial resources, and there are celebrities from all walks of life to visit Chen Caozhi, Qiguang Temple monk Zhidu, Xi Dayin Dai Kui, and the Huiji celebrity Zhang Andao, The children of the Jiyin clan and the Runan Mei clan who were included in the scholar register together in the fourth year of Shengping, Chen Caozhi married to guard the tomb and lived in hiding, but his fame is getting bigger and bigger-

Speaking of Chen's financial resources, the Qian Tang clan is really both envious and jealous In June last year, the Chen family borrowed 500,000 yuan from the Ding family and the Liu family to October this year, and in just one year and four months, the clan paid off the million money, and now it still owes more than 1 million yuan to buy the land, saying that it can be repaid, but it is just to be kept for the purpose of expanding the manor, and the two million money is nothing for the whole family and the Ding family who have been in business for many years, but the Chen family has gathered two million money in more than a year with less than 100 hectares of land. What the Ding clan can't do with nearly 200 hectares of land-

Qiantang Chen's six livestock breeding, silkworm silk, linen weaving, fruit trees, two crops of rice, tea, papermaking, pottery these are only in the initial stage, has not yet begun to produce profits, for the Qian Tang Chen family to gather two million money in addition to the grain harvest, mainly forging and smelting shop and Mingsheng Lake fishery, Chen's forging and smelting shop to create plows, harrows, hoes, sickles and other agricultural tools are particularly sharp and durable, the rest of the iron parts on the ox cart, Chen's forging and smelting shop casting is also durable, not easy to break and damage, Chen's shade and good will promote, Now the farm tools of the self-cultivated farmers in the entire Qiantang County are purchased from the Chen family, and the manors of the Shishu clan need more high-quality and durable farm tools, although they also have their own forging and smelting shops, but the iron tools created are not as good as those produced by the Chen family in any case, or it is more cost-effective to buy from the Chen family, this reputation has spread, in recent months, even the Shishu families of Yuhang, Yuji, Shanyin, Jiaxing, and Shangyu counties have come to order farm tools and ox cart carriages from the Chen family-

Mingsheng Lake is a cornucopia, full of fish and shrimp, the four small fishing boats of Chen's fishing ground are full of cabins every day, in addition to providing food for the people in Chen's manor, they are also sent to the county seat for sale, and the rest are salted and exported to other counties, and the Cheng's Yin household, who is responsible for the trade of goods, according to Chen Caozhi, has found reliable and solid agents in each county, and Chen's ironware and other items produced by the manor are sold by this merchant on behalf of him-

Chen Caozhi naturally doesn't care about these specific things. He is not as good as the old farmer in terms of crops, he is not as good as the old farmer in terms of crops, and the rest of the iron, linen weaving, papermaking, and pottery burning. He won't. He only knew that rice in the south should be able to be planted in two crops, fruit trees should be grafted, blacksmith shops should be piston land, silk in the south should surpass the land of the Central Plains, and traffickers and traders should be able to gather wealth...... He just told these things to the old farmers, the old nursery, and the people who came to Germany. These people are all clever and intelligent. Try it. Repeated piston bellows were made, and two crops of rice were grown despite low yields. I heard that the rice seeds in Jiaozhou are good. has sent a special trip to Jiaozhou to ask for rice seeds——

The prosperity of the Qiantang Chen Manor is unstoppable.

The son is full of strength. Seeing the rapid expansion of the family field. Daily money in and out. It feels really good to be rich.

If it is said that Chen's mother Li died the year before last. The Qian Tang clan came to pay tribute because Ding Yi and Du Zigong took the lead. This time, Chen Caozhi got rid of them, but they all came together. And most of them are the heads of families with different surnames. The first is to pay tribute to Chen's mother Li. The second is to wash the dust for Chen Caozhi. Guarding the tomb for three years is also equivalent to traveling far. Now return and resume the life of the former land.

Qiantang County ordered Feng Mengxiong and Chen to be world friends. His daughter Feng Lingbo is Chen Caodi's righteous sister. The father and daughter naturally came to Jade Emperor Mountain early. Feng Mengxiong also brought Huan Wenhuan, a messenger from Da Sima Di, and his four retinues. This messenger is the expedition to the west and Xie Xuan.

Xie Xuan turned out from behind the two tall burly sword guards. At first, his demeanor was quite reserved. But seeing Chen Caozhi's face showed a look of surprise. shouted, "Brother Young—" strode up to meet him. Sincere friendship suddenly broke through some barriers. shouted: "Brother Zizhong-" and Chen Caozhi's hands were clasped. Look at each other and smile. The heart is warm and excited.

I haven't seen each other for two and a half years, and their appearance has changed a lot, and they have grown a lot taller, but now they are holding hands side by side, and the two are still of similar height, both of them are about seven feet four inches, beautiful and elegant, with the posture of a jade tree in the wind-

Eighteen-year-old Xie Xuanfu looked like he was applying powder and incense, his eyebrows were slanted, his eyes were cold, he was both elegant and sharp, the rise and fall of the family and the experience of Huan Wenxi Mansion in the past few months, Xie Xuan grew up quickly and became calm;

Chen Caozhi's 800-day tomb keeper is thinner than before, but his body is a little taller, so he looks even thinner, his complexion is white with a faint blue, and his eyes are more quiet and deep.

Xie Xuan said: "At the end of the year before last, I was shocked to hear that Aunt Chen had passed away, and I was sad, because of the long distance, I couldn't come to worship. ”

Chen Caozhi immediately led Xie Xuan to his mother's tomb to pay respects, Xie Xuan recalled that he had come to Chenjiawu twice to see Chen's mother Li's kind and gentle voice and smile, and his mourning was overflowing.

Qian Tangshi in Chen's cemetery were all amazed, Huan Wen Huan Da Sima naturally calculated Chen Caozhi's removal today, that is, sent someone to recruit him into the West Mansion, it can be seen that Huan Da Sima attached great importance to Chen Caozhi, not to mention that the messenger sent turned out to be Xie Xuan Xie Youdu, who had the reputation of "Xie Jiabao Tree", Qian Tang has been called to serve the imperial court for a hundred years, and there are not a few scholars and sages, but no one has ever enjoyed such an honor, comparable to the year before last ~ The guest invited Xie Anshi out of the mountain.

When everyone worships in turn, a fast horse down the mountain, two officials go up the mountain, one of them had come to Qian Tang with the history of Yangzhou last year to try the case of Lu's impostor, is Wang Shao's recorder, surnamed Zong, this time it is by the order of Yangzhou Assassin Wang Shu, to recruit Chen Caozhi for the state literature, the year before last Wu County Taishou Lu Na intended to refute Chen Cao for the county literature, and now, Yangzhou Assassin Wang Shu is to set off Chen Cao for the state literature, the state literature is naturally higher than the county literature, that is the idle position of the eight products, generally the beginning of the career, Only the children of high-ranking families who enjoy the fame can get the position, and there has never been a child of the inferior scholar clan who has entered the official career of the eight-grade literary peng, and Xie Xuan was dismissed by Huan Wen as the expedition to the west, and it is only the eighth grade.

The patriarchs of the Qian Tang clan in the cemetery were not shocked this time, but shocked, Chen Caozhi had just removed his service, and the two high-ranking officials of the Xifu Huan Dasima and Yangzhou Assassin Wang Shu came to recruit, presumably they all calculated the date of Chen Caozhi's removal from the service, and they came on the same day, Ding Yi was even more secretly speechless, Chen Caozhi's reputation was more prosperous than he imagined, his son Ding Chunqiu was just a tasteless Cao Zuo under Wang Shao, and before Chen Caozhi came out of the mountain, someone sent the eye-catching official position of Eight Grades of Literature to the front!

Chen Caozhi accompanied Xie Xuan and Yangzhou official Zong Lu to return to Chenjiawu, at this time Chenjiawu has changed greatly compared with before, the original annular dock fort has not changed, but on the east side of the dock fort, build a square fort, lean on the mountain and build, the front is low and the back is high, like a tiger down the mountain, from a distance, the castle and the Jiuyao Mountain behind are integrated, the design is exquisite, there are four gates, the middle hall is high, the two compartments are low, the main building, the horizontal house is high and low, the main and secondary are clear, this project is huge, The multimillion-dollar square castle will not be completed until at least the end of next year, and there will be more than 300 rooms when it is completed.
