Chapter 775: Everyone is profit-seeking

As long as the Western Regions and Guanzhong continue to be transported, even if there are ups and downs in the war, Pei Xingjian can support it.

Li Ji still had many regrets in his armor, "I have never fought with the big cannibals, and I really want to go out and fight with them." ”

Chen bit Jin and stroked his beard and said: "Let these young people pick up the credit, and they deceive people too much." ”

As he was talking, Li Jing came over wearing a cloth suit, and there was a team of soldiers behind him, pulling iron buckets.

"I'll leave it to you." Li Jing said lightly.

"Whoa!" Li Ji bowed his hand and beckoned someone to pack these iron drums and gunpowder into a car.

Li Jing handed over another booklet, "This is the artillery usage compiled by the old man these days, and it records the art of war that he has felt recently, and the art of war in the battle formation has been occasionally used, and it has not been used on the battlefield." ”

Li Ji took the booklet with both hands, "Thank you." ”

As for how much you can learn, it all depends on Pei Xingjian's understanding, this artillery is a new thing for the generals in the army, and it is not applicable to the judgment of previous experience.

There are more than 800 iron barrels that have been loaded, and some of them have been taken to Lishan for repair.

Cheng Biting Jin Lang said: "Mao Gong doesn't need to worry too much, these artillery pieces are more than enough to level a mountain, why not be afraid that he will eat 600,000 soldiers and horses." ”

Li Ji nodded in response, "The military plane must not be delayed, and the last general will leave." ”

Li Jing bowed his head and said, "Well, go ahead." ”

sent away the artillery, Cheng Yanjin's heart was also empty, "A certain family has not exhausted its fun." ”

The grapes in Weibei began to ripen in July, and Shangguanyi walked under the grape trellises, worried.

Li Xiaogong asked, "How should this be?" ”

At first, Lishan did not find this kind of thing because of the small number of acres planted.

Shangguan Yi can only attribute the reason to quantity.

The Gaochang people on the side were still talking in Gaochang dialect, and his words were mixed with Guanzhong dialect and Western Regions dialect.

It sounded like a lot of work, and he had to repeat it several times to get the meaning clear.

There are not so many birds and insects in Gaochang, and there is no experience in controlling them.

Now there are also Li Xiaogong's subordinates who are driving away birds and insects.

Shangguan Yi took the booklet in his hand and said: "Arrange a large net around the field to prevent birds, and then wrap all the unripe grapes with fine gauze, and pick all the ripe grapes." ”

Hearing this, Li Xiaogong shouted at his subordinates: "Did you hear it? ”

"Whoa."

Shangguan Yi took out a string of copper coins and handed it to this Gaochang person, but the other party was still unwilling to accept it, and he said in an unfamiliar Guanzhong dialect: "Lishan is our benefactor, and I dare not accept it." ”

The Gaochang man said that, then turned around and left, and the people did not collect copper money.

Li Xiaogong picked a few bunches of better grapes, "Come on, send them to Lishan and give them to the little county lord to taste." ”

"Whoa."

The harvest was full of twists and turns, from the beginning of the ripening and lack of fertility, to the current pest and bird flock.

The yield of grapes in Guanzhong cannot be compared with Gaochang, which yields one stone per mu, while the yield per mu in Guanzhong is only fifty percent of that of Gaochang.

In short, the grapes were planted, and Li Xiaogong was very happy.

Shangguanyi was very worried, the climate in Guanzhong was not as good as Gaochang, and it was not as blessed as Gaochang.

"I am afraid that the ideal of the county marquis will be difficult to realize."

Li Xiaogong was puzzled: "How can you say this?" ”

Shangguanyi explained: "In order to grow these grapes, Lishan uses a lot of manpower and material resources, in our Lishan words, it is the cost, the greater the cost, the price of grapes cannot be low, otherwise no one in Guanzhong grows grapes." ”

"People are inclined to profits, the same for Lishan, and the same for others, if the profits from planting grapes can offset the costs, it can naturally be implemented in Guanzhong."

Li Xiaogong couldn't understand these words, he was beckoning people, "These grapes are given to Your Majesty, those grapes are sent to every family in the clan, and these are given to a few friends of a certain family......"

The king of Hejian was immersed in the joy of harvest, and Shangguan Yi left Weibei with sorrow.

The fruit and vegetable planting work of Taifu Temple has progressed rapidly, and from last year to now, Gaoling and Lantian counties have tasted the sweetness.

Truckloads of fruits and vegetables were sold to Chang'an, and the price of fruits and vegetables rose rapidly at a time when the price of mutton continued to fall.

There are also a lot of salted duck eggs and slaughtered poultry.

The two counties have received the benefits given by Lishan, as well as the downstream manufacturing and transportation of Lishan, and they have become rich in the past six months.

It provoked the eyes of several other counties in Guanzhong, and there were often county officials from other villages and counties blocking Shangguanyi on the official road outside Lishan.

"Shangguan Shaoqing, our village and county are willing to take out 300 acres of land to grow cabbage."

A county official spoke, and someone immediately surrounded him and said, "Shangguan Shaoqing, my village and county can also grow grapes." ”

"That's right! We will do whatever Lishan tells us to do. ”

Everyone is too poor, and when they see that the neighboring villages and counties have earned money with Lishan, their eyes are so red that they are bleeding.

It's just that he didn't agree to Taifu Temple's request at the beginning.

Shangguan Yi was surrounded by a group of county officials, and waved his hand again and again: "Everyone, everyone! ”

Only then did everyone quiet down, Shangguan Yi first straightened his clothes, and then said: "Weinan is not suitable for growing grapes, there is no water and soil in Weibei, don't look at it is just a river apart, and the gap between water and soil is very large." ”

Seeing that everyone had finally stopped, Shangguan Yi said again: "You go back to plan the land and plan first, our Taifu Temple will observe the water and soil, and what land is suitable for planting is planned." ”

Dropping such a sentence, Shangguan Yi walked into the village, and the county officials wanted to catch up, and when they saw the officers and soldiers at the entrance of the village, they all retracted their steps one by one, and stood at the entrance of the village and began to talk nonsense.

The marriage of the crown prince Li Chengqian, the king of Wei Li Tai, and the king of Shu Li Ke has been decided, Li Yue listened to the news of his aunt, and stared at the pot of grapes in front of him.

"This is the talk of families everywhere?"

"The news from the palace has made Your Majesty very angry."

Li Yue said in a low voice: "The attitude of my father is already obvious, the prince does not marry with their family, that is, to isolate the court from them. ”

"Mother, Daddy said that he was going to repair the artillery in the workshop, and he would come to eat it after it was repaired."

Xiao Qingqing spoke, reaching out to get grapes to eat.

Li Yue said: "Wait for your father to come and eat it." ”

"Ah......" Xiao Qingqing said aggrievedly: "Mother is always like this, thinking about everything Daddy." ”

Aunt Wang smiled: "You are the little county lord, and Her Royal Highness the princess and the county marquis naturally think about you." ”

Xiao Qingqing sat on the bench aggrievedly, holding his chin with one hand, looking at the grapes, waiting for his father to come.

In the workshop, Zhang Yang turned on a dumb primer device, and the primer inside had been shattered.

"His Royal Highness King Jin, bring the oil lamp."

Hearing his brother-in-law's words, Li Zhi lit the oil lamp and put it on the table, and he was also observing carefully, and asked curiously: "Why is this happening?" ”

Zhang Yang explained: "Lishan's wrought iron technology lacks flexibility, and it would be better if it was replaced with brass. ”

Li Zhi said in a low voice: "Then why don't you use copper?" ”

"Copper is very expensive, and it is the current currency, and a lot of refined copper was used in the DPRK and China to make steam engines."

"Isn't there a lot of copper coins in Lishan?"

Zhang Yang still shook his head, "His Royal Highness the King of Jin is thinking too simply, copper coins can no longer be used for casting, and they have mixed a lot of impurities when making copper coins. ”

Li Zhi couldn't help nodding his head and watched his brother-in-law take out all the broken parts inside.

Then the mouth of the primer was carefully observed at the oil lamp, and Zhang Yang said again: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin has seen it, the internal threads have been cracked, and once the amount of primer is too much, it is easy to dumb the fire." ”

Li Zhi nodded as if he didn't understand.

As he was talking, Zhang Yang noticed his daughter standing outside the workshop with an aggrieved face.

Seeing this, he put away the parts, got up and washed his hands and went to eat grapes, and the younger brothers and sisters by the Huaqing pool were there.

Li Zhi followed and washed his hands on the side, "Recently, the imperial sister has been studying trees all day. ”

Zhang Yang bowed his head and said, "Well, it's good." ”

Li Lizhi is always planting trees these days, and she studies the distribution of water, soil and vegetation in Guanzhong, such as poplar trees, cedars, aspen or ginkgo.

After washing his hands, Zhang Yang beckoned his younger brothers and sisters to eat grapes.

Li Xiaogong sent too many grapes, enough for a barrel.

So many grapes couldn't be eaten for a while, so Zhang Yang distributed a lot of them to the villagers in the village.

The bear at home doesn't like to eat grapes, so he lies on the edge of Huaqing Pond and soaks in the sun.

After eating too many grapes, Xiao Qingqing was not interested in this, rinsed his mouth with tea, and then came to the house with his little short legs, found his father's toolbox, and took out a wooden comb from the box.

The wooden comb was very wide, and she struggled to comb it for the bear, and the wide wooden comb was combed from the neck to the back, and she could comb a lot of bear hair.

Then put the bear fur on the cloth silk next to it and collect it.

Seeing this, Zhang Yang helped his daughter comb it together, and said in a low voice: "These bears are afraid of heat, so comb them more." ”

So, the younger siblings also joined in the activity of grooming the bear.

There are enough bears in the family, enough for each brother and sister.

The daughter's strength was not strong enough, so Zhang Yang had to comb the place where she had combed again, and the bear still looked like he was enjoying it.

They will shed their hair in the summer, Xiong Da's size is too big, Xiao Qingqing will be tired after a while, sitting next to Xiong Da and looking up at it, "Why are you so big?" ”

Xiong's big black eyes were looking ahead in a daze.

Zhang Yang combed the bear fur and patted its back, "Go wash it." ”

Hearing this, Xiong Da got up and walked into Huaqing Pond, swimming carelessly.

The production of Lishan is in full swing, and the overall planning of the production and scheduling of the entire Lishan falls on Xiao Wu and Xiao Hui.

In the library pavilion, Xiao Wu looked at last month's accounts and said in a low voice: "If you want to increase production capacity, one steam engine is simply not enough. ”

Xiaohui nodded in agreement, and she took up a pen to record the production of each factory, "At least three more steam engines." ”

When Lishan adapted to the steam engine, it also relied on this source of drive, which replaced the machine to be driven by manpower, which could greatly increase the production capacity.

It has been a long time, and Lishan has never been in contact with carpenter work again, and mechanization has become the current direction of production.

The lathe should be designed more precisely and improved with the steam engine.

Xiao Wu flipped through a page of accounts and said, "Brother Niu, they said that they could build a steam engine in three months at the earliest. ”

Xiaohui nodded and said, "Then let's calculate the cost." ”

The two of them sat opposite each other, thinking about the current situation, when they heard the words by the Huaqing pool.

Xiao Wu and Xiao Hui looked out of the library pavilion together, it was the master who was taking the princess and the prince to run and exercise their physical fitness.

"Do you know why I'm exercising you?"

"Exercise your physique, exercise perseverance, and be resilient and not afraid to overcome difficulties." The children replied in unison.

"Okay, five more laps!" Zhang Yang said loudly.

Li Zhi wanted to cry, and he wanted to slap himself, why did he say such a sentence.

After running eight laps around Huaqing Pond, the princess and the princes only had the strength to pant and lay on the ground.

Li Fu and Li Ming ran the slowest and had not yet reached the finish line.

Zhang Yang applauded: "Come on!" Must run to the finish line. ”

The pace is very slow, slower than walking, this is the requirement of physical training, you can't give up, you can't give up halfway, no matter how slow you run, you have to run to the finish line.

Finally, the two of them reached the end of the line, and they were tired and lay down.

Li Zhi only felt that his heart was burning, his heartbeat was fast, and he vomited without holding back for a while, and then Gao Yang and Dongyang also vomited.

Zhang Yang held a booklet and recorded the results of this physical exercise, "You few vomited, eat more vegetarian dishes tonight, don't eat too greasy." ”

Li Zhi hugged a wooden basin and spit out again.

Dongyang and Gaoyang, as well as the three girls of Qinghe, had pale faces, and their broken hair was stuck to their foreheads because of the shouting, and they couldn't care about the princess's elegance, so they gasped for breath.

Zhang Yang was thinking about the time in his heart, "Okay! All stand up! ”

Li Zhi slowly raised his head with a look of despair, "Brother-in-law, I can't do it, I can't stand up." ”

Zhang Yang shouted: "I can't bear this pain, what about your perseverance?" What should you do if you encounter difficulties in the future? It's not just about exercising your body, it's also about exercising your mind. ”

Seeing that the children were silent, Zhang Yang put on a straight face and began to count, "One! Two! Three ......"

Afraid of being punished, they helped each other to get up.

Zhang Yang said again: "Move your limbs and feet, otherwise it will hurt very much tomorrow morning." ”

In the end, there was still some concern in the words, not for their good, Xiao Wu and Xiao Hui smiled and retracted their gaze.

A high-intensity physical fitness test once a month is already a lot of money.

It's a pity that the grapes just ate were spit out like this, Zhang Yang sighed with emotion, and at the same time was very satisfied with the test results.

Proper exercise and nutritional supplementation of Lishan food have helped them grow a lot.

"My brother-in-law is a monster, and he doesn't feel tired no matter how long he runs." Li Zhi spoke as he moved his ankles.

Gao Yang and Dong Yang nodded in agreement.

In fact, unconsciously, they are more united, and even they don't know about this change.

The children's physique is getting stronger and stronger, and Li Fu and Li Ming, who originally had a poor foundation, are getting stronger and stronger, and their complexions are getting better.

In the evening, they should prepare more carbohydrates, rice, noodles and meat.

Zhang Yang walked to the back kitchen and saw his daughter-in-law making dumplings with her daughter.

She has an inexplicable attachment to dumplings, which is the only thing she is good at.

Seeing that her husband was covered in sweat, and the sweat had soaked his chest and back, Li Yue handed over a pot of water.
