"Young master, is it appropriate for the minister to act like this?" In the study, Zhongshu stood respectfully opposite Liu Chan and asked. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Now that he has got out of his servant status, when Liu Chan is named the crown prince, his identity is the prince's retainer, and now the self-title of "minister" is also appropriate.

However, it was Liu Chan who made him change his name, and the latter had a natural rejection of words like "old slave" and "villain". Probably the concept that all people are created equal in the minds of modern people is "at work".

Liu Chan squinted and thought for a moment, and the hand on the desk subconsciously tapped on the table, and Zhongshu was silent when he saw this.

After a long time, Liu Chan was thoughtful, "Do you want to imitate the pre-Qin Shang martingale?" ”

Zhongshu nodded, in acknowledgement.

"That's fine, but there are some things you need to pay attention to." Liu Chan's voice was calm, "First, the new waterwheel operation method is simplified as much as possible, so I will let Ma Jun coordinate with you, and the second is that this time it will be mainly based on the farmers around Wuyang, and if there is any obstacle between actions, report my name." ”

Listening to the previous sentence, Zhongshu's face was still as usual, but Liu Chan's latter sentence made Zhongshu think about it.

The meaning of this sentence is actually to imply that he should not let those heroes of Qianwei interfere in this matter. "In this case, if anyone wants a piece of the pie, they will all refuse, presumably these guys will not force it when they hear the name of the young master." Thinking of this, he nodded and said, "Obey the young master's orders." ”

At this time, Liu Chan took out the document from Li Yan, the Taishou, and handed it to Zhongshu, "This is the document approved by Qianwei Taishou, and if there is not enough manpower, you can transfer people to the county government." ”

"No." Zhongshu reached out and took it. I was about to ask for a retreat, but I was a little hesitant.

"Huh?" Liu Chan was keenly aware of the other party's behavior and mentality, and asked calmly: "Zhongshu, but what else can't you decide?" ”

Hearing Liu Chan's question, Zhongshu said in a squirming voice: "Minister...... I want to bring my mother to the house, but my mother is weak and afraid of ......"

Before he finished speaking, Liu Chan waved his hand to interrupt him: "Next, Aunt Hong can take care of me a lot when I was young, but I haven't seen Aunt Hong for more than ten years since I got married." Although he only remembered one name and very few fragments of Zhongshu's mother in his memory, he wanted to take her over as Zhongshu's mother, this was not a pledge, after all, the whole Yizhou was his cheap father's power.

"Thank you, young master!" Hearing Liu Chan's words, Zhongshu bowed to the ground with great joy, and his words were full of gratitude.

Liu Chan smiled slightly, "When Aunt Hong comes over, you have to inform me." Okay, let's go down, you have to worry about the watermill. ”

"No." Zhongshu only felt that the young master seemed to have been urging him to go today, as if he had something to do, but out of the duty of a courtier, he didn't say anything to ask, but bowed respectfully and withdrew.

Liu Chan was the only one left in the study. He stood up, moved himself, and walked out.

"Prepare the horses, I want to go out of the city." With a gesture of his hand, Liu Chan commanded to the subordinates beside him.

"It's already May now, if I hadn't been reminded by Zhao Yun's incident, I'm afraid I wouldn't have remembered when this happened."

"Speaking of which, the impact of this incident on the waterwheel incident is also quite huge, and there must be a way to solve it."

Liu Chan felt the air that was already a little hot, and took a deep breath.

……

Ordinary people go out of the city when they arrive at trivial matters, but Liu Chan went out of the city, for the old housekeeper Ding Xun, he almost didn't call all the guards and even the garrison to be transferred over for protection, but under the strong opposition of the former, he only brought a few guards in the house who were quite good, and the old housekeeper had to follow him, saying that he was afraid that Liu Chan would sneak away again, which caused Liu Chan to cry and laugh and had to agree to the request of this stubborn housekeeper.

The city gate had already greeted him, and he was not interrogated, so Liu Chan and his party went out. This kind of brick and stone city wall gave Liu Chan a feeling that was almost as solid as the cement wall of later generations.

The inside of the city is fine, but outside the city is the green branches and beautiful trees, the grass is mugwort, and even the feet touch the ground, there is a sense of lightness and softness.

Separated by a wall, one side is the world, and the other side is a paradise.

made Liu Chan doubt his vision for the development of this world for a moment. The establishment of industrialization must represent the destruction of the environment, and in the past, European countries were almost unable to survive in poor environmental conditions, and it took decades of conditioning to ease.

But this feeling comes and goes quickly, after all, he is not a weak scholar in the previous life.

"Caring for the environment or something, at least it has to be a luxury that I can only consider after I live with peace of mind."

After asking a few farmers along the way, Liu Chan arrived at the destination of this sudden trip in a short time.

But it is a river with a fairly wide riverbed.

This river is a tributary of the Min River, the water potential is not too fast, and most nearby residents take water from this river.

In fact, Zhongshu had already reported the information about this river to him, after all, the establishment of the waterwheel was closely related to the state of the water flow.

But this time Liu Chan came in person, not for the waterwheel.

Without saying a word, he walked upstream along the river, while the old butler Ding Xun followed behind with his head down and silently.

It didn't take long to find a farmer who carried water, and judging by his familiar appearance, most of them often came here on weekdays.

Liu Chan's appearance attracted the attention of this person, and when he saw Liu Chan's clothes, style and temperament, and some family members following behind him, he suddenly panicked, which is the reaction that most small people will have when they see big people.

Liu Chan walked up with a smile, and his gentle smile made the farmer relax a lot, but he was still full of vigilance.

"This river is clear, and I heard that the water quality is also very sweet, but today I came to see if this rumor is true, I wonder if the elder brother can solve the confusion of the younger brother?" Liu Chan did not pretend to be coy, but came to a fist hug in the market.

This remark made the farmer's heart wary and partially dispelled. This river does have some reputation, and the lady Xiu Shizi in the neighborhood often comes here to play, but now he has included Liu Chan in this category.

But this kind of question, this prince doesn't know it after taking a sip, why do you still ask him? I'm afraid that he is another weak man who cherishes his life like gold, and the war over the years has defeated those bloody sons.

The farmer sighed in his heart, but on the bright side he still looked as simple as usual. Don't think that the peasants are stupid, these people who fight with the sky and the earth don't have many stupid people.

"My lord, the water quality here is really good, but what is very sweet is still too much, a little sweet and cool is still a little bit, on weekdays, there are many nobles like adults who come here to enjoy the scenery, but after the summer, the river is becoming more and more urgent, but there is no one here for a while."

How did he know that his words made Liu Chan's eyes light up.

"Sure enough!"
