Just when the business of the well digging engineering team was becoming more and more proficient, and the efficiency of digging wells every day was much higher than at the beginning, the two old guys, Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chi Jingde, found Xiaoyao Villa in succession.

In fact, if you want to talk about old age, according to the average age of later generations, these two who are not yet forty years old and in their early forties have nothing to do with old at all. But judging from the average life expectancy in ancient times, forty years old is not considered young.

Moreover, these two originally came from the troubled times, the sea of blood and corpses, and it is not surprising that they are a little old and decrepit in modern time and space. Anyway, in Li Anran's opinion, there is nothing wrong with using old guys to describe the two.

Especially Cheng Yanjin, when they met for the first time, this one gave Li Anran the feeling that he subverted the role in previous movies and TV series, and he looked very handsome and polite. But after the two got acquainted with each other, this one immediately showed his "original form" and restored his "true body".

"I said General Cheng, you and General Wei Chi came here without any trouble, could it be that it was to fight the autumn wind and have a meal?" After the end of lunch, Li Anran, who was holding a tea cup in front of him and blowing it, said angrily.

"Real person, you can't say that, this time the old lieutenant and I came late because we had something to ask for." After a hearty meal just now, Cheng Biting Jin, who was holding his stomach at this time, was satisfied, how could he still have the temperament when he met for the first time, and he was coarse.

"Something? Then what are you talking about, it's been talking about it for a long time. Ate another meal, now I can always talk about it. Li Anran, who glanced at the other party with contempt, shook his head and smiled playfully.

"Hey...... Isn't that a coincidence? Cheng Yanjin, who had shown his "original form", didn't know what to call embarrassed, and after patting his belly that protruded a lot, Zhengse said: "Real person, I want to ask your people to dig a few wells in my Zhuangzi, okay?" ”

"Digging a well?" Li Anran, who glanced at the other party, turned his head and smiled at Wei Chi Jingde, who was silent on the side: "What? General Wei Chi also came here for this matter? ”

"Please do it with real people." Zhilu said that his temper was a little impulsive, and it was easy to offend people if he was not good. It was carried out before leaving the house. My mother-in-law repeatedly told me not to say anything if I can, and to say less if I can.

"I don't understand, it's just digging a well. Do you need to ask me to borrow someone? Could it be that no one will dig a well in this world? Li Anran, who nodded. He turned his head again and said to Cheng Yanjin.

"It's no problem to dig a normal well. But the kind of wells that can be easily pumped with hand pressure and do not occupy a place, except for real people. Not elsewhere. Cheng Yanjin said very frankly.

"Oh? It turned out that I was going to dig that kind of pressurized water well, and that's right, this kind of well drilling equipment and skills, no one but me has it. Li Anran, who was not surprised by the other party's purpose, said with a smile: "However, why should I borrow it?" ”

"Uh......" Faced with such an answer, even Cheng Yanjin, who had thought of a few countermeasures before coming, was a little unable to answer for a while. He could only look at Wei Chi Jingde, who was sitting on the other side, and let the other party speak.

The problem is that before Wei Chi Jingde left home, he had been ordered by his mother-in-law for a while, how dare he speak casually at this time. If this is in case of colliding with the immortals of the upper realm, if there is a sickness or disaster in the family in the future, how can you speak?

I didn't look at Li Shimin, who is under the emperor's majesty, and his attitude towards Xiaoyao Villa and what commercial streets are, he is just vigilant, and he has not made a mandatory move.

It was precisely because of these that in the face of Cheng Biting Jin's eyes, Wei Chi Jingde, who was holding a teacup, acted as if he hadn't seen it. I kept blowing and blowing there, as if I was wondering that the tea was so hot that it couldn't be cooled no matter how much I blew it.

"Okay, I can borrow people and equipment, but at what cost?" Seeing that the atmosphere was a little embarrassing, Li Anran, who didn't really want to refuse, said: "You know that I am a cultivator, and what I am most afraid of is that I am riddled with cause and effect, so if I want to borrow someone to borrow equipment, I will exchange it for something." ”

In the face of this obviously somewhat unkind words, Cheng Yanjin and Wei Chi Jingde not only did not get angry, but they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In their opinion, it doesn't matter what the cause and effect are, as long as the goal can be achieved, it is expected to pay a price.

"No problem, I've long heard that the real person is quite happy about the jade, medicinal materials, and wood, and a certain person has already prepared a thin gift, and I forgot that the real person can accept it." Seeing that the other party was relieved, Cheng Yanjin hurriedly patted his chest and said.

And Wei Chi Jingde, who was sitting opposite, was no longer silent at this time, and also said: "I heard that the real person was quite happy with the antiquities of the previous dynasty, and he also made people prepare a thin gift, and he forgot that the real person smiled. ”

"Huh...... It seems that the two generals have a very clear understanding of my preferences. Seeing the two of them like this, Li Anran nodded and said: "Okay, it's a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning, since the two generals have needs, I naturally want adult beauty." Now, in two days, when the work on my side is completed, you will send someone to pick it up. ”

"With my current manpower and equipment, it is enough to start work in the Zhuangzi of the two generals' families at the same time, and I believe that there will be no delay in the rest of the matter. However, I personally recommend the two, if there are conditions, it is better to raise more chickens, ducks and geese, and some can be saved. ”

Don't look at the latter sentence of this sentence, which is a bit clueless, but Cheng Biting Jin and Wei Chi Jingde heard it very clearly. In fact, there is no need for someone to say that these two Zhuangzi have already done this, but where to find so many chickens, ducks and geese for a while.

You must know that there is an imminent drought and a locust plague, even if Li Shimin gives a gag order, but a few of those who know about it are willing to sit and wait for death. As a result, the entire Chang'an and nearby counties have caused a shortage of poultry.

"Real person, I want to do it, but it's not too easy to buy chickens, ducks and geese now." Zhilu Daoist reminded Cheng Biting Jin, who was also kind, and said the situation outside with a wry smile.

It turned out that since the eldest grandson Wuji, who knew about it, they also began to buy a large number of poultry in the market in line with the idea of believing it rather than believing it, I don't know how to do it, and soon many people began to follow suit.

In addition, the Zhuangzi under the names of these guys are bigger than the other, in order to avoid the damage caused by the locust plague as much as possible, it is not possible to buy it vigorously, so even if the locust plague does not spread, the poultry market is on fire.

"Wouldn't it? Even if you can't receive it near Chang'an City, you can collect it from other places. Li Anran, who didn't think about it at all, quickly understood what this meant by not being easy, and smiled at the moment.

"Accept it, there are too many people who can buy it, and there are many people who buy it, and the price of this chicken, duck and goose has increased several times." As one of the insiders, Cheng Biting Jin, drank the cold tea in front of him in one gulp, shook his head and said.

"I see, that's ......" Li Anran, who heard the unfinished meaning of the other party's words, didn't bother to cause any more trouble. At the moment, he just expressed his emotion, and then continued to pick up the tea cup and taste it leisurely.

Originally, he was expecting Cheng Yanjin, who could order poultry from Xiaoyao Villa, but it was not clear that this plan would most likely have to be in vain. Fortunately, buying poultry from other places is not a difficult task for people like me, it is only a matter of time.

And the main purpose of coming over this time was not to dig wells and poultry, so after seeing that someone didn't speak, he first exchanged a look with Wei Chi Jingde, who was sitting opposite, and then said with a little embarrassment: "Real person, there is still something to ask for." ”

"Tell me what's going on." Knowing that these ancients were somewhat afraid of their magical abilities, Li Anran, who was not in a hurry to pick up other people's stinky feet like those hard-pressed traverser predecessors, but said very casually.

"Real person, I don't know if the tonic medicine for those recruits can be ......" Although he couldn't finish saying this, the meaning of Cheng Yanjin's words couldn't be clearer.

"You mean that kind of tonic for refining the body, sorry, it's hard to get this thing, and it's already a hassle to supply those recruits." Li Anran, who shook his head, said this, but his tone changed and said: "If General Cheng wants it, I personally don't think there is any need to worry at all, I believe that it won't be long before there will be a substitute here in the Nether."
