Chapter 44: The Great Drought Has Passed
People are forgetful, especially the pain of forgetfulness, the pain of the drought, and the pain of locusts, which gradually became a sigh after tea and dinner, and a shame for Liu Fan, who made a fortune because of the locust plague.
When the bonfire party in summer began, more and more people stayed in Linjia Village, there were more carriages, and the parking lot came into being, and the second aunt of Lin in the village became the biggest caretaker of the parking lot, standing on the high platform and constantly directing these carriages and ox carts to park in the right position, if there are horses that need to be fed, additional fees are charged, and the same is true for those who need to be cleaned.
The toilet has already lined up in a long line, Liu Fan looked at Zhile, but there is no plan to expand again, the current toilet is enough, although sometimes you need to queue, but in most cases it is still enough, and then build a public toilet to occupy some resources, and so on in the future, the village will develop even bigger, to be considered.
The soundproof wall of the square has a good effect at night, at least I can sleep well, I have no interest in jumping, and I play chess with Ma Zhou every night.
Ma Zhou is very smart, Liu Fan never thought of leaving him in this village for a long time, when Ma Zhou said that he had the idea of entering the village, Liu Fan agreed, "Go, the court is more suitable for you!" ”
"Three years is three years, and I don't think I've learned as much as you have learned in the court, oh yes, you know what? Our Royal Highness the Crown Prince has now begun to order people to start building a market like this village! Ma Zhou jumped over the river and ate one of Liu Fan's soldiers.
Liu Fan frowned and said, "The prince is only nine years old this year, does he want to show his talent so early?" ”
"Your Majesty is not old, and it is indeed not wise to be too early, but you know what? The person who operates this matter is Zong Zheng Shaoqing's eldest grandson Chong, who is the eldest grandson Chong, that is the eldest son of the eldest grandson Wuji, and now he has the right, background, connections and resources, which can be described as smooth sailing! Ma Zhou sighed.
"Why did you steal one of my sons?" Ma Zhou said angrily.
Liu Fan said: "What stole your son, you see that our army is here, don't you eat it if you kill it directly!" ”
"You're not here just now!" Ma Zhou stood up angrily.
Liu Fan smiled: "There is evidence!" ”
Ma Zhou stopped talking, sat down sullenly and played chess again.
Liu Fan said: "I don't mind who wants to build such a village, but I hope that more and more people will do it, so that the people will at least have a stutter, and they will not sell their children because of a natural disaster like now!" ”
Ma Zhou said: "I know your mind, full of Tang Shengxiang, but this matter can't be seen like this, if the prince enters the game, if he succeeds, then where will you be, if the prince is not successful, where will you be!" ”
"Hehe, it just so happens that the prince is only nine years old, and he is still a child at the age of nine, if he succeeds, everyone will praise him, if he is not successful, he is just a teenager who is momentarily angry, and the starting point is not bad, it will turn big things into small things, do you think the eldest grandson Wuji you consider can't consider it?"
Ma Zhou nodded, looked at Liu Fan and said, "It's a pity that you don't enter the ranks!" ”
"You are too upright, everything you think is from the loyalty and patriotism of the monarch, and you will not be too miserable in the future, and you will be smooth and smooth These days have gradually been exercised, but what I want to tell you is that the most important thing for officials to see is that what the general trend is now, I hope it will help you to enter the government in the future!"
Ma Zhou fell into deep thought, Liu Fan secretly moved a few more moves, clapped his hands and said, "Oh, I won!" ”
Ma Zhou looked at Liu Fan in shock and said, "Shamelessness can also be a reason to win?" ”
"I care too much about face, who the fuck is still an official!" Liu Fan scolded angrily.
The village is digging a huge ornamental pond, the pond will become a scenic spot in the future, covered with lotus flowers, lotus flowers in summer, residual lotus poems in winter, and then let the stonemasons build a statue of Li Shimin in the middle of the pond, presumably also a little bit of sycophancy, so that more people in this village can come to watch.
Li Shimin's statue is too small to show Li Shimin's majestic strategy, too big Li Yuan has not yet been lowered, so the specific size also needs to be well conceived, whether it is good to be the emperor immediately, or to make Li Shimin stand on the ground and guide the country, it needs to be conceived, and it is definitely not something that can be made casually.
In fact, you still have to learn from Rome, look at people, it is a statue at every turn, whether it is dead or alive, you can make a whole one, and then let everyone worship the statue, this is the totem, in fact, Huaxia also had totems before, but unfortunately it became a god later.
Many years later, Li Shimin will also get one, but he will get a portrait, and he will also draw those old guys, and the tribute is in the Lingyan Pavilion, the key is that the Lingyan Pavilion is still in the palace, and the world can't see it if they want to worship it.
Satisfied looked at the drawings, and then looked at the construction personnel, satisfied with a sigh of relief, now Linjia Village is the most frequent village in Datang, whether it is a private school under construction, or a hospital, it has attracted a large number of people to look for job opportunities, and Liu Fan will also arrange the most suitable location for them according to the specialties of these people.
Now there is such a joke in Chang'an City, saying that Jinchangfang can no longer find a craftsman, and all of them have gone to Linjia Village to work.
Liu Fan didn't want to refute this kind of, how many talents are employed in the village now, but only a few hundred, there are so many craftsmen in Jinchangfang, how can there be no one.
But if you want to say that there are more people in Linjia Village, because the craftsmanship required by Liu Fan is sometimes very difficult, for example, is this pond really a single pond?
Liu Fan is required to have a fountain! This thing can kill a large number of brain cells, and make these craftsmen think about perfecting it day and night.
What Liu Fan actually didn't expect was that the popularity of the cake would be so fast, this kind of soft and sweet was simply loved to the extreme by those ladies of the family, and even the eldest grandson queen liked to eat it.
The key is that Liu Fan began to order, for example, if a hook bar is needed, then fix how much is needed every day, and the cake shop will be all done the next night, and it will be delivered early the next morning.
Because the road is smooth, the cake is still formed from the village to the city, and because of the hot weather, the ice cubes are also produced.
Originally, he wanted to make a fortune from ice cubes, but it turned out that there were already Jianghu warlocks who could make ice using saltpeter, but it was a secret at first, and now he has become a craftsman with a fixed salary under Liu Fan.
