The most bullish outing procession in history drove out of the city, and the royal nobles and commoners were summoned together by Xu Zheng for the first time, without guards and knights hugging each other, but there were fifteen wildebeest carriages, like the size of a small convoy. Then five demonic beasts opened the way, and three of them were wind-type winged tigers, driving towards the outside of Zion City.

The guards guarding the city had already been notified, and they were released from the city without even checking it. Fortunately, Xu Zheng tried to keep a low profile, and when he went out of the city, he broke it into pieces, and the fifteen wildebeest carriages went out in batches, and then called the three winged tigers to fly higher, and went to wait outside the city by themselves.

When I got out of the city, I was farther away from the city, and then I broke it into a whole and continued to drive forward.

Hawke once asked where the goal was, Xu Zheng's answer was very scoundrel, and he actually said that since he was going out for an outing, of course, he would go wherever he went, and what he enjoyed was the process of this outing.

At first, Hawke couldn't stand this answer, because the aimlessness of doing things completely went against Hawke's philosophy of life. But as he continued to walk forward, Hawke suddenly realized that Xu Zheng's words with a grin on his face turned out to be very reasonable. Compare this outing with previous outings in Virgil and you can immediately feel the difference between the two.

In Virgil, outings are purposeful, always choosing a place first and going straight to the goal. And following Xu Zheng, the whole process is casual, stop and go, look at the mountains, stones, flowers, trees, sky, clouds, sky, sunshine, indescribably relaxed and comfortable.

Walking and walking, he would suddenly stop, Xu Zheng jumped out of the car and rushed out with a gust of wind, or climbed trees, or picked flowers, and sometimes even pulled a handful of grass. Excitedly, he took it back to the car and offered the treasure. Needless to say, his group of friends would jump off the back of the winged tiger at this point. Follow Xu Zheng to toss together. The two of them in the team, plus Maika and Xiao Banga in the firefly shop, a total of four children, followed Xu Zheng's ass, and they were all crazy.

Right now. Xu Zheng was carefully tying up a handful of grass that he had pulled with a string and hanging it on the beam of the wildebeest. Seeing that Xu Zheng's palms were green with grass juice, Bruce asked, "It's so dirty, what are you doing when you pick it up?" There are many outside Samuel Castle, and I haven't seen you pick it. ”

Xu Zheng sneered and said, "That's different, the grass in the wild has the smell of sunshine that the grass outside Samus Castle doesn't have." I don't believe you. I'll take it back. Hanging by the bed at night. ”

The three princes stuck their noses out suspiciously, and they didn't know if it was because of the feeling that Xu Zheng had after saying this, and they really felt that it smelled like a fresh and warm sunshine. Foran immediately divided half of it and kept it for himself.

Bruce laughed, "You're just weird." ”

Xu Zheng smiled proudly, and shouted and urged Xiusi to continue walking. And Uncle Xiusi is extremely conniving at Xu Zheng. Sitting side by side with Carlo and drinking, they heard Xu Zheng shouting in an orderly manner, and looked at Carlo and smiled. Continue to drive the carriage.

Hawke leaned back on the chair, and there was a smell of sunshine that Xu Zheng said on the tip of his nose, and suddenly felt that this outing was really different.

It's not because the wildebeest carriage has been improved by Xu Zheng and doesn't bump at all to sit up, which makes people feel very comfortable, nor is it because the wine in the glass in his hand is glowing with the color of crimson roses, and the fragrance is far-reaching. It tastes so good that it makes people sigh, and it's not because the food on the small table in the car tastes so good that people eat it regardless of their image.

But suddenly, Hawke felt that the sunlight was very good, and the scattered paintings sprinkled on the ground were very beautiful, the breeze on his body was very comfortable, and there was a bit of the smell of sunshine that Xu Zheng said, and the screams and laughter of children would come from time to time, and the whispers of conversation in the surrounding wildebeest carriages would also be heard, and occasionally burst into a burst of chuckles. When all of these things are combined, they become an element that makes people happy.

Suddenly, Hawke understood: the reason why it is different is because of the different moods and the different people around him.

People are different, they and Virgil's traveling aristocrats have fundamentally different purposes, Virgil's outings are disguised socialization, everyone wants to use outings as a means to get a little bit of reason, climb a little kin, and pave the way for their own rights. This kind of person is vulgar, boring, and boring.

The mood is different, Virgil's people are outing for the outing, Xu Zheng's gang is just a simple outing, the truth is that simple.

But it's because of this simplicity that everything is different. The boring social interaction suddenly turned into a rich and interesting experience, which gave Hawke a deeper understanding of Xu Zheng's words: the purpose is not important, the most important thing is the process, in the whole process, to discover happiness, and then, easily, you will be happy!

Realizing this, Hawke couldn't help but be more relaxed, and he could actually use an interesting mood to watch the three winged tigers fly and fly, fly when he is happy, and use the way he walks when he is happy, at ease. Go and see the big and small classes to try arrows to shoot leaves, see who shoots down more, and if you lose, you will wash each other's underwear for a month. He didn't even think it was too strange to wash his underwear. Looking at York and the Cowherd again, they talked to themselves, the topics of the two were not related, but they talked very speculatively. He noticed that York's bald head was surprisingly shiny in the sunlight, brighter than the crystal of the magician's hand, and that the cowherd's tail flicked all the way behind his buttocks, making many cheerful circles. In the end, even Luki's poisonous words that burst out from time to time sounded like heaven.

It turns out that when the mood is different, everything I feel is different.

Hawke was feeling his age rapidly decreasing, and seeing Maika laughing after a panicked squirrel, he wanted to try it too. It was a strange feeling to Hawke, so strange that he panicked a little, not knowing what he would become.

After walking for a while, it was farther away from the city, and although the speed of the wildebeest carriage was not fast, it was not slow, and it was estimated that it had left the city for at least twenty or thirty miles.

The farther away from Zion, the farther away from the bustle, the road in front of you is full of cultivated land on both sides, and the further you go, the more you can see the scene of Cheng'an's civilians plowing the fields.

The group, including Xu Zheng himself, probably had never seen this kind of scene of plowing in the field, so they couldn't help but get off the carriage slowly, and they all looked out of the car and watched the farmers working in the fields.

At this time, it was almost noon, the sun slowly became a little hot, there were still many farmers working hard in the fields, most of the men were bare-chested, revealing a tanned skin, of course, the women could not learn like that, only a hand-woven cloth towel tied around the neck in the local color of Cheng'an, used to absorb sweat and stop the sweat from flowing down.

The carriage in which Rex, Lao Banga and others were riding drove over and stopped next to Xu Zheng and the four of them, and Rex sighed: "It's been a long time since I've seen a picture of farming like this." Thanks to Xu Zheng's blessing, when I saw it again, I still felt very shocked, and it evoked a lot of memories. ”

Pointing to the seeds that the civilians were planting in the soil, Rex said, "What they have planted is the most widely sown grain in Cheng'an, called brown wheat. It has a low yield, a relatively fast ripening time, and can be sown and harvested up to four times a year. After harvesting, the wheat grains are light brown after the initial treatment has removed the hard outer husk, which is how the name brown wheat comes from. Then it is coarsely ground by the mill to make coarse wheat flour, which can be made into coarse bread that is commonly eaten by ordinary people. It is coarsely ground once, finely sieved twice, and cellared once before it becomes the finest fine wheat flour and makes delicate bread. ”

"To dry brown barley, it takes nearly ten days to dry it in the sun. This is okay, Cheng'an lacks everything, but there is no lack of sunshine. It's just that going to the stall to dry brown wheat under the scorching sun, the kind of hard work that is about to become dehydrated with the wheat under the scorching sun, is not a wonderful thing. ”

"After drying the wheat, the four of them worked together to remove the hard husk from the outside with a rake and plow, and it would take about a day to remove a hundred catties of brown wheat. Then there is the coarse grinding, if you are lucky, you happen to encounter the wind, the windmill can save a lot of effort, but if there is no wind, the dry wheat can not be stored for a long time, and it will be bad if it sprouts, so it can only be ground by hand. If you look closely at the hands of those civilians, you will see that the entire palm of the hand is covered with calluses, which have been worn out over many years. ”

"Finally, it takes at least a month to go through the process of harvesting the brown wheat to making the wheat flour. What I'm talking about doesn't include the toil of farming. ”

The carriage that Lucina and Yaqi were riding didn't know when it stopped next to it, and Lucina's smiling voice came: "The calendar is eighteen months, starting in February every year, planting a season in the first April, and the lack of water in summer is the longest, so planting a season in June, and the autumn sowing time is the shortest, so we have to do it in a hurry, because there are only three months, and the last one starts from fifteen months, and before February of the next year, one season is planted in five months." ”

Rex was impressed, and said, "Mrs. Bandry is really a good hand! I only know how to plant it, but I don't know when to plant it." ”

Lucina smiled: "I was originally from a civilian background, I lived on the farm when I was a child, and I used to do this work with Carlo. Later, I married into the city, but I didn't have a chance to do it again. ”

Saluting Lucina, Rex turned around, smiled slightly, and said, "Do any of you know how much sweat the civilians of Cheng'an are in the kind of bread you often eat?"

Xu Zheng was embarrassed for a while, he really didn't know. Bruce and Forlen, as well as Hawke, all looked embarrassed. Who would have known that the process of making simple bread from wheat flour is so complex and involves so much hard work?

Xu Zheng said embarrassedly: "Grandpa Rex, how do you know so clearly? You are the emperor, well, the previous emperor, have you also done it in the ground?"

Rex smiled and said, "I did it." With a reminiscing expression, he said, "My father said that an emperor who can't grow wheat will always be an unqualified emperor." So, my great-grandfather planted it, my grandfather planted it, my father planted it, I planted it too, and Dane planted it. We've all learned a lot. ”

The Emperor who went down to farm, Hawke, looked at Rex in amazement, unable to imagine what he would look like farming.
