When Du Shiyi was strolling in Dunhuafang in Luo, he was deeply impressed by the calm, elegant and almost lazy atmosphere, and then passed by the mansions of Lu Xiangxian and Yuan Qianyao, and then he understood what it was. And for Lu Xiangxian's famous sentence that has been passed down through the ages, he will naturally not forget it.

There is no mediocrity in the world to disturb themselves.

The Lu family has been seen since the Han Dynasty, and Lu Xiangxian's ancestor Lu Ben was Chen Zhishi, and the Huangmen Shilang and Zhongshushe were given at the age of forty-two because of the leakage of forbidden words. And the Sui destroyed the Tang Dynasty, and the Sui and the main Tianlu family also entered the court, but the eunuch journey of the Lu family's children of Lu Yuanfang, the father of Lu Xiangxian, was mediocre. No one thought that Lu Yuanfang, Lu Xiangxian, father and son could pay homage to each other.

Even if Lu Xiangxian had already stopped before, and because of his heart to Rui, he was not treated by Li Longji very much, and a few years ago, Ding's stepmother guarded the Lu family's old mansion in Suzhou for a full three, but once he was the governor of Yangzhou at first, and then he was the assassin of Tongzhou near Chang'an, even if he didn't enter the three, no one dared to underestimate him.

The Lu family has other branches, such as Dan Tuzhi, who is also thriving, but when you ask Lu in Wu County, everyone will immediately point to this old mansion of the Lu family located in the north of Suzhou. The clear moss can be seen on the green bricks outside the Lu house, but when someone passes by in front of the door, they all ride their horses slowly and dare not raise their voices. When Du Shiyi dismounted in front of the door, they didn't even rush forward to meet him, but waited until Du Shiyi threw the reins behind him and walked over from him, before a very young servant stepped forward and bowed.

"I wonder who this Lang Jun wants to visit at home?"

"In the lower hall, the servant Shi Dushi dares to ask Lu Shilang if he can be at home?"

Although there are dozens of eunuchs in the Lu family, and those ordinary people are not ordinary when they hear about it, the Lu family is not very peaceful, but Du Shiyi reported that the servant at the door of the house was still a little surprised. He thought about it for a while, then said with a smile: "It turned out that the famous Du Shilang Jun was fishing in the backyard of his house, and I asked someone to lure Du Shiyu in." ”

Lu Xiangxiansan, who is still at home in Suzhou, is his youngest son who has not yet been released, and Lu is only nineteen years old. He married sixteen and married the daughter of the Zhang family of Wu County, and now he has a son under his knees, but he doesn't seem to be hot for his own appearance, and he is a little lazy, Lu Xiangxian didn't care about him when he was filial piety at home. Even if the lady was in a hurry, he only said one word.

"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren."

But this lazy and wandering fifteenth lang of the Lu family is in charge of all the Lu family's properties in Wu County. And as long as he uses one glance, he is not allowed to disturb the people and exploit the people, which also makes the Lu family's reputation white and unpraised in Wu County. At this time, Du Shiyi walked all the way with a servant girl, and saw a person who was wrapped thickly like a big Ah Fu sitting on the edge of the pavilion, motionless, and waited until he was close before he sent the other party's head against the pillar of the pavilion, and he was dozing.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but laugh. It's okay to sleep by the water on a cold day, aren't these Lu family members afraid that Lu Yan will fall directly?

As if seeing his suspicions, the maidservant who led the way said softly: "Lang Jun is actually sober, Du Shiyu don't worry. ”

From the time Du Shiyi had just walked over to now, when he walked to Lu Yan's body, he couldn't have imagined that a sober person could maintain this motionless posture for so long. Staring at the person for a long time, he finally couldn't help but want to cough, when he heard a lazy yawn in front of him, followed by the big Ah Fu on the water's edge, and finally moved.

"Huh...... Standing and talking, Du Shiyu is so tired that Du Shiyu has something to say, why not sit down and talk? ”

When Du Shiyi heard this, he couldn't help but think of his equally lazy senior brother Lu Wangzhi. He saw that there were several seats piled up next to him, and he didn't bother to talk for a moment, so he took a few swings, and then sat down cross-legged and said, "Lu Shilang, please ask Yuan Yuanjun to bring a message, I don't know what is going on?" ”

"I haven't been to the two, I just wanted to see what kind of person the famous Jingzhao Du Jiulang is."

Lu Yan turned his head and revealed the dark eyes under the hood: "But I'm surprised to see Du Shi Yuzhi." It stands to reason that you shouldn't be so happy that you have to learn Yuwen left and one by one, and Chen right played together, stirring up one storm after another? Before and after you arrived in Suzhou, there were already many people who planned to abandon the rice they had planted for decades and switch to tea, and there were another group of people planting what wood, do you know what it means? ”

The rumored lazy Lu Shifu met him for the first time, and Ci Feng was so rhino, Du Shiyi was stunned for a moment, and then asked rhetorically: "Then Lu Shifu Lang feels that rice is a food for the stomach, if the people seek profit and do not plant rice, it will cause a big mess at that time?" ”

Lu Yan's eyes looked aggressive and asked, "Since you know, why do you want to persuade people to do this profit-seeking act?" ”

"Because of choking, the wise will not take it." Du Shiyi opened with eight words first, and then smiled slightly: "Lu Shilang only saw that he planted tea and kapok, and temporarily occupied the cultivation, but in fact, the tea field cotton is no different from the mulberry field in the past, and the mulberry leaves in the mulberry field can be fed into silk and can be made into silk." The tea produced in the tea fields is tea, which seems to be not a common necessity for the common people, but for the Turkic Khitan, Xi and Tubo, which are mainly meat-eating, it is impossible or can no longer be given up once they get used to it. The food that was scarce in the market could be supplemented by exchanging tea leaves for meat from them. ”

He paused and continued, "As for Mulu Fifteen, maybe he hasn't seen the real thing. For example, in winter, the royal dignitaries used silk, fox skin, bear skin, and even mink jackets, while ordinary people were at most a sheepskin, and even the poor family even had to use a wool robe to spend the winter. Although the price of silk cotton and all kinds of fur is high, the latter has to kill the comparison of kapok warmth and silk cotton, although the price is different, but if it is woven into cloth to make clothing, it is better than hemp. If it is said that rice is the cure of rice, then kapok is the cure of hunger, how to prosper and no hunger, and the party is prosperous, and the same thing will have more and the same price, and the price of less things will also be adjustable. ”

Lu Yan was blinked by Du Shiyi's words, and after a while, he took down the wind on his head, revealing his black and soft head, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It turns out that I am making hearsay behind closed doors." He dropped the fish in his hand and got up, but he gave Du Shiyi a deep look: "If you were slacking just now, please ask Du Shi to forgive your sins." ”

Lu Yan was only stunned because of what he had just said, Du Shiyi couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and he couldn't help but help him up with both hands.

And Lu Yan, who straightened his waist, scratched a little embarrassedly, but he couldn't help but snort, and hurriedly smiled apologetically: "I have been an old prisoner since I was a child, and I will sleep sleepy, so I will be slumbered anytime and anywhere, and I also ask Du Shiyu not to be surprised." As for the cotton fields and tea fields, not only Lu but also the Zhang family was quite concerned after learning about it, so I asked Ming Du through my mouth to avoid misunderstanding. Bi didn't expect Gu to suddenly be so enthusiastic. ”

Du Shiyi knew that Gu Sanlang and Gu You had visited frequently recently, and from the rest of the families, they would definitely not treat it as if they hadn't seen it. And the wealthy families who have no real background in Shu, Buwu County, these three families are all real families that have left a strong mark in the history of the Wei, Jin, and Southern Dynasties, and the so-called four families of Shu County that he once pressed down with a strong wrist are completely different. So he didn't nod his head and readily admitted.

"Gu Sanlang came to ask for my name, and I went to visit several families who came from Shu County to Jiangnan to buy cotton fields and tea gardens."

Lu Yan picked it with interest for a while, thought about it, and then said: "Du Shiyu has just arrived in Wu County, and Su probably has heard that the so-called Southeast Wu Zhu Zhang Gu Lu is the greatest. Gu Luliang not only dominated the Wu land during the Southern Dynasties, but also became an official in the north for the survival of the family. It's just that wealth is wealth, but it is inevitably despised by Zhu Zhang and Wu people. Therefore, when the Southern Dynasty talked about Wu Zhongsi, it should have been Gu Lu and Zhu, but in the Northern Dynasty and even Sui, it became Zhu Zhang and Gu Lu. The Zhang family is the marriage of my Lu family, and now it is also a legitimate dignitary. On the contrary, the Zhu family has gradually declined since Zhenguan, and although the Gu family had a governor twenty years ago, it has gradually gone downhill. ”

This is not something that cannot be said to others* Lu Yan is very good at Du Shiyi's frank confession just now, and naturally does not hide this section: "The Gu family was once committed to opening a private Confucianism, and Zhu Ziyu of Wujun studied under Mr. Gu Biao. And Gu Xiangguo worshiped the prime minister back then, and was deeply loved by the queen of heaven, although he passed away after a few years, but the queen of heaven once dropped out of the dynasty for a time.

At that time, it was the most prominent time of the Gu family, and when Gu Cong's sons were not very successful, Gu Run entered as the prime minister, but the secretary is said to be in poor health. And Gu Jun is waiting in Beijing, but he needs the Gu family to feed his expenses in Beijing. Gu Sanlang's father, Gu Qingnai, was Gu Xiangguo, mixed up in his early years, and had nothing to do, although Gu You was humble and had an ancestor to study, but only the Gu family would have such a situation. ”

When he asked Du Shiyi just now, he was very sharp, and at this moment, he commented on Bei Lu Yan, and he was also ruthless. Seeing that Du Shiyi really had a face, he said calmly: "In addition, I admit that what Du Shiyu said just now is true, but the Lu family adheres to the principle that his father and ancestors do not like to seek innovation, so they cannot support your move to persuade tea." As for Mu, since it is a Shu person in Jiangnan, let alone do it on his own. Lu will not be attached to, but will not object. It's just that the Shu people are in the rest of the states, and I just hope that in Wu County, it won't be too out of line. ”

Since Lu Yan said it, Du Shiyi can also understand. He had long known that Wu County still had three major lives, and he had avoided this place before what he had planned. He nodded lightly and said lightly: "The literati of Wu County are outstanding and those people in Shu County naturally dare not compete with them. ”

"Du Shi Yu's words are heavy. My father has always warned my son not to fight with others, and others are not to occupy what I want to do with the Lu family, and it has nothing to do with the Lu family. It's just that my wife's family, Zhang's actions are impatient, and Zhang Shangshu is also difficult to be good if there is a conflict. Speaking of Shu County, the people who chose Huiji really chose the right one. Huiji Siyu Wei Kongke has long since risen and fallen. At that time, Yongxing Wenyi Gongyu Shinan Yu Shangshu was once prominent, but the Yu family of two generations of descendants was no longer a sè character, and it was in decline for a while. The Wei clan and the Xie clan have been in decline as early as the two Jin Dynasty, only the He clan is still prosperous for a long time, and now the Congratulatory Rites Department is deeply appointed in the court. However, He's acting in a corner is not aggressive. ”

Lu Yan said a little childishly, and immediately lifted the fishing rod and said, "Since Du Shiyu has come to catch a fish with me, it's easy, okay?" I deliberately let people put a lot of perch in this pond to make fish soup, the most delicious, but unfortunately I sit dry for a day and often can't catch one. Zhang's there is no need to visit my brother-in-law, who is not good for people, and he can't listen to it, and he can't listen to it, so he doesn't have to touch his nails. ”

As a sister, she said this about her wife, and Lu Yan gave people the impression that she was straightforward and daring, and Du Shiyi knew that the other party was by no means untargeted. Today's Wu Zhongsi only has three surnames left, and the Gu family still shows the Gu family, whether it is because of what Lu Yan said, after all, he has revealed his interest in tea and kapok, and the Lu family clearly said that it is not mixed or opposed, and now only the Zhang family has not yet expressed his attitude. And according to Lu Yan, he doesn't have to go to the Zhang family. What he wants is persuasion, not to let people abandon all the arable land and grow tea

Du Shiyi felt this in her heart, took the fish handed over by Lu Yan in her hand, and threw down the fishing rod with a smile. Although he was fishing by the pond on this cold day, the cold breath was blowing in his face, but after a while, when the float gradually caught a big fish, he couldn't help but immediately daxiao.

"I've been sitting all morning and have nothing, and you're so lucky."

Lu Yan shouted in frustration, but he called the servants again and again, and ordered them to take them to the kitchen and kill them alive immediately. As soon as the servant on the other side retreated, he saw a young man in his early thirties with a square face striding forward.

"Fifteen, this is Jing Zhao Du's servant?"

The young man didn't wait for Du Shiyi to agree or not, and then said coldly: "In the Zhang Soldier Department of the Zhang family in Xia Wu County. Today, I am here just for one piece to ask Du Shiyu to put away the heart of persuading tea."

After saying this, he actually arched his hand and walked away. It was only at this time that Lu Yan blinked and came back to his senses, but he smiled bitterly at Du Shiyi: "How?" Ear report God and xìngzi and impatient, do not listen to people, often come and go to my house, and I don't need to be leveled, I have not been less taught by his ear, I don't know how to improve. My brother-in-law, in his early years, was the secretary of the Ming Jing and first the secretary of the province, and then moved to Yangzhou to supervise the royal family, because of the previous Zhang Jiazhen and Zhang Xiangguo, this was the end of the term of office, and the sick at home for a while. My father-in-law, Zhang Shangshu, is the only one in the third and second sub-sects, so he has contributed to his arrogance. ”
