Chapter 669: The Contradiction of the Family

When the words came out, Xu Hui looked perfunctory, she frowned with the scroll in her hand.

Zhang Yang had no choice but to say: "Taifu Temple has been researching crops recently, and tea can be cultivated by the Xu family, so that the local old farmers work for the government, and the Xu family in the East China Sea is the contact person of our Taifu Temple." ”

If the Taifu Temple in the middle of the court wants to cultivate tea planting, as long as the court approves it, the local government comes forward, and then the Xu family of the East China Sea comes to contact, and Lishan cooperates.

In this way, the Xu family can justifiably acquire mountain land, and can also make benefits for the local government, and a win-win situation for several parties has been formed.

Xu Hui nodded, "It's a lot more convenient in this way." ”

"The Xu family in the East China Sea used to be a high-ranking family, if the tea trade becomes bigger in the future, the children of the family can no longer participate in the imperial examination and official career, this is a commitment to the court, of course, the Xu family is not only a businessman, but also a tea farmer."

Xu Hui simply sat down, spread the paper on the table, and wrote down these words.

She put down her pen and said, "Master's words are a promise to the court?" ”

"That's natural, the court naturally understands the huge benefits of tea, and His Majesty also understands that if you want to develop and have the support of Taifu Temple, you naturally need to make a commitment that the children of the family will no longer participate in the official career and no longer participate in the imperial examination, which is a guarantee that after the Xu family becomes a big tea family in the future, it will not become a family."

Xu Hui is different from Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu has been accepted as a righteous daughter by Empress Changsun, she naturally can't engage in business anymore, but Xu Hui is different, Xu Hui's choice can be more free in comparison.

There is also Lishan to help her, and Xu Hui planting tea south of the East China Sea should be very smooth.

Zhang Yang walked into his study, and Li Yue was cleaning up here, "What is the husband looking for?" ”

"As for my previous map, I remember that there were a few plots of land that were particularly suitable for growing tea."

Li Yue glanced sideways at Xu Hui, who was still sitting at the front of the house, and she whispered, "Husband is going to help Hui'er?" ”

After searching for a long time on his bookshelf, he finally found a map, which was a map drawn by himself, which was more detailed than the map used by the government now, and the map used by the Foreign Affairs Institute was of this kind.

Zhang Yang replied: "Since her career is also part of our family's business, I naturally want to help." ”

Li Yue smiled, "There is Lao Fujun." ”

"It's nothing, what Taifu Temple should do, and the work of tea planting is also one of the focuses of crop diversity, I can't just hope that there is no action, even if the benefits of the Central Plains are placed in Taifu Temple."

Holding the map, Zhang Yang sat down again and drew a few circles on the map, "There are also a few plots of land in southern Jiangsu, Jiangnan Dongdao, and coastal Lingnan, which are suitable for various types of tea planting such as trees, small trees, shrubs, etc., and the rainfall and soil are also very suitable. ”

Li Yue brought the tea leaves, and stood aside with his waist up, and listened carefully.

Xu Hui was curious: "Are these also recorded in the files of Taifu Temple?" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yang was slightly stunned, these places are high-quality tea producing areas, and he can't say what he knew in his previous life, so he coughed and explained: "Yes, yes, these are the files of Taifu Temple, in fact, the files of Taifu Temple are very powerful, and the records of crops in the north and south of the Central Plains are very detailed." ”

With Master's guidance, Xu Hui wrote down a lot of words, and even wrote down a few pieces of land drawn by Master.

"Thank you, Master, for your advice."

Zhang Yang waved his hand and said: "You're welcome, you are our disciple, and the guidance you should have is naturally indispensable, you roughly write a plan and the preparation of related matters, and discuss it with your teacher." ”

Xu Hui nodded heavily.

The next thing was handed over to his daughter-in-law to talk with Xu Hui, Zhang Yang hurriedly wrote a concerto, Zheng Gong said that he should write more concerts, His Majesty should speak widely, communicate with the emperor more, and even call the emperor more.

Zhang Gongjin is his own teacher, Li Xiaogong is an elder, and Zheng Gong is a court senior worthy of his own learning.

is indeed a good example of how to behave in the world, Zhang Yang wrote the next piece of music, and asked his aunt to arrange to send it to Chang'an City.

After the concert of Taifu Temple arrived in Menxia Province, it was quickly sent to Zhongshu Province, and there was not much discussion about the cultivation of tea in Taifu Temple, and the concert of Taifu Temple was also sent to His Majesty.

Li Shimin also hopes that the more tea he has, the better, this year's new tea is still sent by Lishan, and it is also thanks to Yue'er that she is sensible, and she will send enough tea to drink for a year every year.

The emperor will also take the short hand and eat the mouth short, and let the Xu clan of the East China Sea to cultivate tea is the strategy of the Taifu Temple.

This strategy was written by Zhang Yang again.

Li Shimin was embarrassed to refuse, so he had to write permission first, let people send him back to Lishan, and summoned Xu Xiaode.

When Xu Xiaode heard the news, he was also a little surprised, he had already heard that Hui'er had said that he wanted to plant tea, but he didn't expect that this matter would be linked to Taifu Temple, and even to His Majesty.

I thought it was just a trivial matter of planting some tea, and I could still let Taifu Temple write a chapter?

Xu Xiaode walked into the Ganlu Palace, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is arranged by the wife at home, and the minister is not very clear, wait for the minister to go back and ask for clarification, and come to ask Your Majesty for guilt." ”

Li Shimin bowed his head and said: "It's not enough to be guilty, Taifu Temple must do a good job in crop cultivation, and now Zhang Yang has been doing this, if you Donghai Xu can help Taifu Temple, it can be regarded as contributing to the community." ”

"For the sake of the community, it is incumbent on the ministers."

Li Shimin handed him the song again, "The song said that this is the promise of your Xu family in the East China Sea, I thought that your Xu family is also a prominent family in the east of the Yangtze River, and I don't know if this promise is your idea." ”

Taking the piece with both hands, Xu Xiaode opened it suspiciously and looked at the contents, and then frowned and hesitated: "This is ......"

Li Shimin bowed his head and said: "This is a piece handed over by Zhang Yang, I am thinking about such a big thing, you should know." ”

A prominent family said that the children of the clan will never enter the official career in the future, and this kind of thing is inevitably too big.

My daughter's idea is getting bigger and bigger, and this is a decision that she will make.

Xu Xiaode hurriedly saluted, "Your Majesty, after the ministers discuss with their relatives at home......"

Li Shimin said with a smile: "Don't worry, you should really discuss such a major matter at home." ”

Not to mention the future, let's just say that the children of the family will never enter the official career again, this kind of thing almost cuts off the door of the Xu family in the East China Sea, so how can I say that I am a prominent family in the East China Sea.

Not to mention that there is a future, the Xu family has been lonely, when Ciyuan Marquis Xu Wencheng worked hard to support the Xu family, in the hands of Xu Xiaode, it is now just a royal history, and now it is finally a little better, so naturally I don't want to cut off the future.

Xu Xiaode had all kinds of conjectures in his heart, but he didn't know the reason, so he could only ask Lishan.

Since the chapter is from Taifu Temple and was also written by Zhang Yang himself, he has to go to Lishan to ask.

The tranquil Lishan Mountain, on the north side of the village entrance, has an acre of field, in which a lot of melons, fruits and vegetables are planted, in order to hope that the crops cultivated in Lishan can be seen by outsiders, which is a good publicity.

Taifu Temple wants to diversify crops and plant all kinds of melons and fruits here, so that the results of Taifu Temple can be seen by more nearby villagers.

From the perspective of Taifu Temple, the grain in the Central Plains has been abundant in recent years, so it is necessary to expand the diversity of crops.

Some melons and fruits can be grown on dry land, and even in the dry season, there are crops to eat.

The diversity of crops not only ensures a rich and varied food ration that can provide the nutrients that people need, but also a necessary behavior for the security of food reserves, and the more single the crop, the more dangerous it becomes.

Once a single crop harvest is not good in a disaster year, there will be many chain reactions, and even lead to turbulence.

This is the reason why in these years when the climate is still good, Lishan advocates a variety of wheat, while millet is rarely cultivated in Lishan.

Wheat yields are just as good as they are and easier to preserve.

Shangguan Yi had just returned from outside, and he went to several surrounding townships and counties to check the planting of crops.

This is also a matter of no choice, and each family has its own difficulties when asked.

When he came to the entrance of Lishan Village, Shangguan Yi saw Xu Xiaode waiting here, "Xu Yushi, how can you have the leisure to come to Lishan today." ”

Xu Xiaode wiped the sweat from his forehead, "There are some things I want to ask the county marquis, and I have already informed the guards here." ”

The guards in the village are all from His Royal Highness King Wei, and these guards have always acted casually, and he doesn't know when he sees the county marquis.

Shangguan Yi said again: "Xu Yushi can enter the village with him, and there is no need to wait at the entrance of the village." ”

"That's fine." Xu Xiaode walked into the village at this time, "Actually, the guards here told the old man that Hui'er is a disciple of the county marquis and the princess, and she can enter the village at any time, but the old man is not from Lishan after all." ”

Shangguan Yi shook his head helplessly, "Xu Yushi and Zai entered the village, and after sitting for a while, maybe you will be able to see the county marquis." ”

Xu Hui seemed to have been ready to accept her father's questioning a long time ago, and when she got her father to come to Lishan, she met her master together.

Coming to a field in the village, Shangguan Yi was busy sorting out the branches of the grapes, and now the grapes have not fully bloomed, and this summer may be able to harvest.

Now the grape seedlings are growing well, and they are all growing buds, which is very pleasing to look at.

Zhang Yang took Xu Hui to the front, Xu Hui was wearing a light blue dress at this moment, the outfit was very simple, like Li Lizhi, she liked to tie her ponytail, her hair was neat and neat, she looked very clean and energetic.

After the ceremony, she rarely wore a skirt anymore, just like Xiao Wu and Lizhi, and now she often practices riding and archery, and dresses more like a man.

First looked at his daughter standing beside Zhang Yang, Xu Xiaode took the piece and whispered: "County Marquis, what does this mean." ”

Xu Hui hurriedly stepped forward, "Daddy, listen to your daughter's explanation." ”

Xu Xiaode is not good at losing his temper in front of his daughter, this daughter is very good and capable, and she can't keep up with her daughter's ideas when she is talented or even a father, so she has to listen calmly.

Xu Hui said with a smile: "Daddy, since ancient times, famous families have taken it as their responsibility to revitalize the lintel, but don't forget, if today's Khan advocates the imperial examination, and now the court and the central government choose officials, they have always gone through the imperial examination to enter the scholar and the first, no matter how high the family is in the future, they must go through the imperial examination to enter the office." ”

Xu Xiaode said: "The old man naturally understands. ”

Xu Hui nodded and said: "My daughter has thought that borrowing Lishan can make the family have more industry, so that the children in the family no longer have to worry about food and clothing, and Taifu Temple also needs to cultivate tea, so that the cultivation of tea in Jiangnan Dongdao coincides with the crop cultivation of Taifu Temple." ”

Xu Xiaode took out the piece handed over to him by His Majesty, "You should discuss such a big matter with your family." ”

Hearing this, Xu Hui lowered her head and sighed, her eyebrows were a little more worried, "Daddy, do we still have to follow the old path of the family?" has always been committed to revitalizing the lintel, but now how does His Majesty deal with the family? ”

To grasp the information of an era and to grasp the forefront of this era is to walk ahead of many people.

Xu Hui knew very well in her heart that if the Khan put pressure on the family again and again today, the Xu family in the East China Sea would have to rise again in the future, and he would not be able to continue to win the throne like those wealthy families.

Only by giving up the career can the emperor rest assured, no matter who the emperor is in the future, a big tea planter with only silver money in his hand, who will like it, if this family can still help the community, it can get the emperor's weight.

In the big picture, the idea is correct.

Xu Hui said again: "Daddy has been displaced for more than ten years since he entered the court as an official, and he has now stabilized. ”

"Is our family going to be a merchant from now on? Our ancestors are the Marquis of Ciyuan, are we going to forget our ancestors? ”

Xu Hui explained: "Daddy, the law of our ancestors is just a constraint imposed on us by our descendants, and my Donghai Xu family only grows tea, and will not participate in business, just tea farmers, not tea merchants." ”

Xu Xiaode wanted to speak and stopped, wanted to refute, and felt tired in his heart, as his daughter said, his family was the old Nan Chen Xun, and then the former Sui Tongzhou County Cheng, when he was a child, he sent people under the fence and tasted the warmth and coldness of the world.

Later, the world was in turmoil, Xu Xiaode took his family and lived temporarily in the Heshuo area, the days at that time were very difficult, and he returned to the court in the second year of Zhenguan, and did the long history of the prince's East Palace from a county, and Zhang Yang was an official in the East Palace together.

Until now it has become the imperial history, Xu Xiaode breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about everything along the way, he stroked his beard and did not speak.

It's been hard all the way over the years, it's really hard.

Looking at Hui'er now, Xu Xiaode feels that she can no longer make decisions for this daughter, she has her own opinions, and in the future, she will be different from those women of the wang clan who will only obey the arrangements of the clan.

Zhang Yang invited Xu Xiaode to sit down, "Xu Yushi, you and I were officials in the East Palace together, you are an upright minister, and this matter will be handed over to Xiaohui's mother's family for the time being." ”

Glancing at Zhang Yang, Xu Xiaode nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

He couldn't hide the loneliness on his face, and now as a father, there was nothing left to teach this daughter.
