Chapter 54: Trouble
Zhong Li glanced around, and knew that Zhong Liyu was afraid that the children would be too noisy, so he made a noise to Zhao Zijian, so he took them to another room to eat, and said with a smile: "The children are naughty, and the eldest brother is afraid of bumping into the guests." ”
"Haha." Zhao Zijian laughed loudly, "Zhao is really embarrassed to disturb Brother Zhong like this." ”
"Brother Zhao, you're welcome, let's eat." Because of what happened just now, Zhongli was in a bad mood.
Zhao Zijian didn't care, and after being satisfied, he sighed: "Your family's dishes are not much better than the wine and food from all directions." ”
"Brother Zhao likes it." Zhongli said modestly.
After eating, it was already completely dark, and it was not appropriate for Zhao Zijian to go back at this time, so Zhongli arranged for Zhao Zijian to stay.
Zhao Zijian was lying on the strange but soft bed, and the quilt was full of the smell of the sun.
He looked at the chic ceiling, and felt the urge to keep Zhongli by his side.
But there's no rush on this matter. He could see that the Zhong family was supported by Zhong Li alone. And Zhongli is just a teenager, but his conversation and demeanor are comparable to those of ordinary nobles. It can be seen that Zhongli is a very courageous person.
Such a person is only afraid that it will not be easy to accept.
Thinking about it, Zhao Zijian fell into a deep sleep.
And when Zhao Yiyan heard that Zhao Zijian was staying at Zhong's house, he almost didn't run away.
In fact, he didn't know what was going on with him, and as soon as he heard that Zhao Zijian was staying at the Zhong family, he couldn't do it.
Even though he knew that Zhongli wouldn't be in the same room with him at all, he still felt uncomfortable.
Fortunately, the old housekeeper is not here now, otherwise he would have to worry about Zhao Yiyan again.
……
Early the next morning, Zhongli went to get up and prepare to go to the glaze factory by the river.
After all, she was afraid that Wang Qinglin would not be able to suppress this matter, but as soon as she walked out of the door, Zhao Zijian walked out, and when she saw Zhong Li was also there, she hurriedly said, "Brother Zhong is early." ”
"Brother Zhao is also early." Zhongli arched his hand.
"Brother Zhong, where are you going?" Seeing that she looked like she was going out, Zhao Zijian spoke. After all, inspecting Quyuan Plough is also one of the purposes of his visit, Er Zhongli is the builder of Quyuan Plow, and it is more appropriate to follow her than to follow anyone.
Zhongli looked at Zhao Zijian with a curious expression, and said, "If Zhao Gongzi is idle, go with me." ”
Zhao Zijian had this intention, so he immediately prepared for it, and set off with Zhongli to go to the glass factory.
When he saw a huge empty house, Zhao Zijian felt that his three views had been repainted, and it was the first time he saw that the house could still be repaired like this.
"This is the Liuli Factory?" Zhao Zijian stared at the factory building in front of him and asked knowingly.
Zhongli nodded and said, "That's right, but it hasn't been built yet, so it can't be regarded as a factory." With that, she walked towards the factory.
At this time, there was a quarrel inside, and Wang Qinglin was surrounded by several glass workers in the middle, "It must be what you said, otherwise how could we do such a low job?" "For the glaze workers, they are all craftsmen, and they fundamentally look down on ordinary house builders. So let them come and fix the house, of course they don't want to.
And when Wang Qinglin went to invite them, he said that he would let them come here to make glass.
"Stop!" Zhongli shouted, and the originally noisy factory finally fell silent.
When Wang Qinglin saw Zhongli, he hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd and said respectfully, "Second son." ”
"You step aside." After saying a word to Wang Qinglin, Zhongli stared at a few menacing glazed workers and said, "If you have anything to say, just tell me." ”
"Second son." Several glass workers looked at each other, but none of them stood up to speak.
In fact, they were also at fault in this matter, after all, Zhongli invited them for a high price.
"If you don't say it, then I'll tell you." Zhongli stood in front of a group of people, although he was petite, he had a unique momentum.
"Whoever has an opinion on my arrangement, then go, I won't stop it!" Zhongli's voice fell on the ears of all the glaze workers, and they didn't expect that it was really Zhongli's idea.
A worker stood up and said: "But we are glaze workers, and we are here to make glaze, although you are the master, you can't ask us to do what ordinary workers do." ”
Hearing this, Zhongli sneered, "But you all brought it on yourself!" ”
Without waiting for the workers to speak, Zhongli said again: "Originally, I served you with delicious food and drink, but what did you do, fight and make trouble!" Isn't this too idle, I'm looking for something to do for you, what's the matter, now I feel wronged? ”
Zhongli's words hit them like a hammer in their hearts, indeed, they were too idle before to have such a situation.
Someone has realized the mistake and stood up and said: "Boss, we are wrong in this matter, and we are willing to help build the factory." "It's another group of people.
When Wang Qinglin went to find them, they had just merged two groups of people, and it was because the two groups of people had not yet been run in well, so this is why today's thing happened.
"What do you mean?" The other worker immediately stepped forward and pointed to the other worker.
"Stop!" Zhongli felt that he was about to be, she was here, they were still so arrogant, so when she was away, they didn't know what to do.
Seeing Zhongli speak, the worker who spoke stopped.
"Since your craftsmanship is high, you look down on other workers, then please leave, rest assured, I will not lose any of your wages these days, and I will also cover your travel expenses to go back."
These words exploded in that man's heart like thunder, and he hurriedly said: "Boss, we don't mean this, we really don't mean this. "Just kidding, Zhongli gave them a salary that was several generations higher than elsewhere, how could they be willing to go.
"But I do mean to let you go." Zhongli stared at them, and before it started, they had an accident. In the future, when the real work starts, I am afraid that there will be more things, and it is better to find a way to eliminate this possibility from the beginning.
Ignoring the pale worker, Zhongli turned around and shouted, "Steward Wang, you come over to me." ”
Wang Qinglin hurriedly walked in front of Zhong Li, his face was not good-looking, after all, these people were all found by him, and now that such a thing has happened, it is also a sign that he is not doing things well.
"Steward Wang, when looking for people in the future, you have to look at people's character, and it's best to go to the nearby places where they have worked and inquire." Zhongli hates this kind of person who feels that he is so great because he has a little ability.
"Yes, Second Son." Wang Qinglin's fists on both sides were clenched, and a trace of perseverance flashed in his eyes, the second son trusted him so much, he couldn't live up to the trust of the second son.
"Alright, now you take them to settle the bill, and then send them away." Zhongli is annoyed when he sees these people now, so don't be too upset.
"Yes." Wang Qinglin looked at the workers and said, "Let's go." ”
The workers glanced at Zhongli and finally left, after all, they were staying, and Zhongli refused to ask them.
After seeing them leave, Zhao Zijian walked up to Zhong Li and said, "Brother Zhong was so majestic just now. ”
"Brother Zhao, don't tease me, if Brother Zhao doesn't dislike it, just accompany me to the mountains for a walk." Cotton and corn have been planted for a long time, and it's time for germination, and this year she put so much fertilizer in the field, it should be much better than before.
Zhao Zijian's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly said, "It's an honor." ”
Walking on the narrow mountain road, the breeze was gentle, and the fragrance of grass was overflowing, and Zhongli only felt that the boredom in his heart was swept away.
"The air in the mountains is so nice." Zhongli sighed.
Zhao Zijian stood beside Zhongli, and he also felt that the air was indeed very good.
As a prince, it was the first time he had climbed this kind of mountain, and he accompanied Zhong Li.
All the dirt on both sides of the road has been turned over, and the yellow earth is bubbling with green shoots, which looks very pleasant.
He stared curiously at the things that were being carefully tended in the field, and asked, "What is this?" ”
"It's a sweet potato." Zhongli glanced at it and explained.
"Sweet potato?" This kind of thing is still the first time Zhao Zijian has seen this kind of thing, and he can't help but be a little more curious, "What is a sweet potato?" ”
Zhongli found a clean stone and sat down, "The sweet potato is the sweet potato you ate last time, it is also called sweet potato, sweet potato, and some places are called yams. Zhongli said everything he knew, and then Zhao Zijian nodded, glanced at the tender green buds and said, "The reputation of pulling sweet potatoes is very good, so you plant so much?" He did a rough count, and there were only a few of them, which was obviously not enough based on the previous sales.
Zhongli shook his head, "That's because you don't know the habits of this sweet potato." ”
Zhao Zijian raised his eyebrows, and he didn't dislike the dirty ground, so he lifted his robe and sat down beside Zhong Li, "Then ask Brother Zhong to explain to me, what are the habits of this sweet potato." ”
Zhongli smiled, pointed to the sweet potato in front of him and said: "This is the sweet potato vine, after it grows to a certain length, cut it short to a suitable length, and then press the vine into the soil, after a while, it will take root, and then bear sweet potatoes." ”
Speaking of which, Zhongli also felt that the cultivation method of this sweet potato was too simple.
"I see." Zhao Zijian used to be most annoyed to hear this, but the strange thing was that he didn't feel annoyed by what Zhongli said, but liked to listen to Zhongli say this.
After resting in place, Zhongli stood up and walked up the hill.
In the field in front is corn, and in the past a little cotton is cotton.
At this time, a farmer who came to check on him came down from the mountain, saw Zhongli, and hurriedly said, "Second son." ”
"How's it going on the mountain?" It was almost noon, and the sun was shining on the ground, and she was reluctant to go up the mountain.
"Back to the second son, they have all grown, and they are much stronger than last year." The farmer's sun-tanned face was full of smiles.
