Chapter 269 If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?
The couple waited in Los Angeles for three days. finally waited for the reply given by the Mo family.
Mo Hui asked Jing Yan: "Your Majesty once said that if my Mo family is willing to go out of the mountain, then I am willing to treat each other with the courtesy of a countryman, can this be taken seriously?" ”
Jing Yan looked at Mo Hui's eyes and said, "The Son of Heaven is a word. ”
"Okay, since that's the case, I, Mo Hui, will believe Your Majesty this time."
After that, he knelt on his knees and made a standard courtesy: "My Mo family is willing to serve Your Majesty." ”
"Great goodness!" Jing Yan helped Mo Hui up, Canghai moved a seat for him, and the two sides talked happily to each other.
Jiang Yuqing took out a sketch of a bicycle and pushed it in front of Mo Hui: "This thing is called a bicycle." ”
She pointed to the position of the pedal: "When a person sits on the front of the car and presses the pedal with his foot, the thing will move forward according to inertia."
If you are proficient in driving, whether it is a cement road or a mountain trail, you can go anywhere, which is a sharp weapon for people's transportation! ”
Mo Hui's eyes instantly brightened when he heard this: "If that's the case, it's a real artifact." ”
Jing Yan handed over another stack of drawings: "Mo Lao, take a look at this again." ”
This is a stack of detailed part drawings. It's all drawn 1:1 by Jing Yan based on the accessories disassembled from the bicycle in the spiritual realm.
Mo Lao took it, looked at it at the beginning, and it was like a treasure: "This thing is very wonderful." ”
Jing Yan asked him, "Is it difficult?" ”
"It's not that hard elsewhere." He pointed to the tires: "It's just that this wheel requires it to be inflatable and wear-resistant, but I'm afraid the material is not easy to find." ”
Jiang Yuqing glanced at him appreciatively: "Sure enough, he is a master, and he can see the real problem at a glance."
I have asked someone to look for this kind of material in Nanyang Yinan. I believe there will be news in the near future. Mo Lao can study other parts first. ”
"That's good!
Jing Yan asked Mo Hui what his next plan was, whether to go back to Suzhou first or go directly to the capital?
The old man's mind was now full of the components of the bicycle, and he couldn't wait to start researching it immediately, saying, "The sooner you go to the capital, the better." ”
Jing Yan has counted. He was given a position on the spot, and a mansion, a grange, was given. And give a number of gold and jade, several servants, every day by Yu Linwei close protection, see the Son of Heaven can not kneel.
Mo Hui saluted and thanked him, and his eyes turned red instantly. Although the Mo family has the ability, in the end it is a "worker", and its social status is not as good as that of a farmer.
In the previous dynasty, it was regarded as a tool by the emperor at that time, and he killed it immediately after using it, so that the Mo family withered and almost died.
His Majesty is magnanimous and benevolent, and is willing to treat each other with the courtesy of a countryman. This is the greatest affirmation and glory for the Mo family.
Although he is obsessed with the art of mechanism architecture, he is also a human being, and if he is a human being, he will have the desire of others. He also longs for himself and his family to be recognized by the world and those in power.
And now he did. If the ancestors had spirits in the ground, they would surely have smiled at Jiuquan.
The Mo family who came with them were also very happy when they heard the news.
Mo Hui immediately arranged for the clansmen to divide into two routes, and his son took the things and the traitors to settle down in the clan first.
He himself will bring his grandchildren to Beijing tomorrow. Jing Yan did what he said, and immediately transferred forty government soldiers and divided them into two teams to escort them to their hometown in Suzhou and the capital.
And ordered the sea and the boundless around him to protect the two teams of men and horses respectively and go to Suzhou and the capital.
After sending off the Mo family. Jiang Yuqing looked at Jing Yan and said happily: "Science and technology are the primary productive forces, and these skilled craftsmen will be the pioneers in exploring the frontiers of science."
We must vigorously recruit and protect such talents, and strive to liberate the labor force from heavy agricultural production as soon as possible, and at that time, the entire Great Xia will usher in a leap forward. ”
Jing Yan shook her hand: "I have sent a letter to the Emperor Taishang, and I am about to issue an order in the near future to recruit capable people from all over the world to enter the court for my use in Great Xia."
Encourage private invention and creation, if it is proved that the invention is useful, the inventor or directly reward gold and silver, especially excellent, can directly enter the Ministry of Industry to work, the imperial court's job. ”
Jiang Yuqing tilted his head, and teased with a smile: "My husband is also very good!" ”
Jing Yan touched her hair and said solemnly: "In the next step, we have to find a way to make more money, and it's time to put the matter of the children going to school on the agenda." ”
He said with emotion: "The world sees that my Great Summer is thriving. As everyone knows, there are still too many things to do, too far to go, and more places to spend money.
Since I succeeded to the throne, I have been tense every day, and I dare not relax for a single day. ”
Jiang Yuqing hugged his waist, buried his head in his chest, and said in a firm tone: "I know." No matter what the road ahead, I will be with you all the way. ”
Jing Yan lowered her head, imprinted a kiss on her forehead, and smiled happily and contentedly: "If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for." ”
This time in Los Angeles, the Mo family was the most unexpected gain. After the Mo family left, the group also continued to set off south.
Some people say that autumn is the most beautiful season. The worries and hopes of the peasants for a year are all condensed in this golden yellow.
In the fields on both sides of the official road, farmers carried large baskets on their backs and pushed small wheelbarrows, running happily in the fields.
Harvesting corn, peanuts, and sweet potatoes, the joy and happiness of the harvest are on everyone's face.
The couple was so shocked by the beauty of this idyllic harvest that they couldn't help but stop the car to admire it.
More than ten feet away from them, there was a family harvesting peanuts in the field.
The newly pulled peanuts still carry a lot of soil, and the bunches are hung on the yellow peanut seedlings, white, chubby, and like small bells, which looks very gratifying.
A few men and half-grown boys are trying to pull peanuts. The plucked peanut seedlings are neatly lined up behind them, drying them.
Several women wore hats, wrapped their heads and faces, took bamboo baskets, and moved the benches behind them to pick peanuts. The children ran and played in the peanut fields.
Yiyi saw it interesting and wanted to go down and play with those children: "Daddy, Mom, I want to play." ”
Jing Yan glanced at his son, took his little hand and said, "The peanuts that have just been unearthed should taste good, we can go buy some." ”
So he took his son by the hand and went down.
Jiang Yuqing laughed when he saw this. If you spoil your son, just say it, what are you doing around the bush?
Then he went around to the carriage at the back and asked Doctor Qiu, "Master, do you want to come down and take a walk?" Eat two flowers raw. ”
Doctor Qiu saw that the weather was good, lukewarm, and it was okay to come down and take a walk, so he nodded and agreed.
Jiang Yuqing helped him get out of the carriage and went down to the ground together. Jing Yan asked the man who was harvesting peanuts: "Brother Tai, your peanuts are well planted, and they are full of fruits." ”
Several men raised their heads, and the youngest of them smiled and said, "Yes, this year, the weather is beautiful, the wind and rain are smooth, can't it grow well?" ”
"Do you have peanuts to sell? How about selling me some? ”
The man laughed and was very hearty: "If you like it, just grab a few handfuls and eat it, you don't have to say whether you buy it or not." ”
Jing Yan bent down, picked one at random and pinched it open, revealing the fresh peanut kernels inside, the pink coat was beautiful and full. Carefully avoid the soil and put it in your mouth to chew, and the lips and teeth are full of the unique sweet taste of flowers.
The man asked him, "How does it taste?" ”
Jing Yan smiled and said, "Great. ”
The man was very happy and invited him to sit down and eat a few more handfuls. Jing Yan watched them pull out a plant with one hand, and opened the bow left and right, the speed was very fast, and it didn't take long to pull out a small row.
Then he was surprised and said, "The soil of your land is good, it is loose and soft." ”
The man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "It's just that this piece of land is of good quality, and it will come down with a light pull."
In previous years, I had to dig with a hoe when planting in other places, and it was a lot of work. ”
Jing Yan bent down and pulled out a few plants, and it was really very relaxed, shaking the soil on the seedlings, and the fruit also shook, very gratifying: "This peanut is better than mine." ”
The man was particularly proud: "It's not me who blows, in our village, there is no one who can grow crops that can compare to ours." ”
The man's brother poured a basin of cold water on him: "Don't blow it, you are not ashamed to boast about yourself." ”
Facing Jing Yan on the one hand, he said: "Don't mind this brother, this stupid brother of my family is used to bragging, sometimes I can't stand it"
Jing Yanwaner: "I think it's pretty good. ”
This is the talk of going back and forth.
Promising and nameless, when they saw their master pulling peanuts, they also came over to help with a very good look.
The car is also familiar, and I played with a few children of the owner's family.
One of the children handed him a large turquoise grasshopper: "This is fun, here you go." ”
The little guy was not afraid, took it and grabbed it in his hand, played with the grasshopper's tentacles, felt the grasshopper's frightened struggle, and smiled happily and thanked him.
My mother said that if I received a gift from someone else, I would give it back.
So he stuffed the grasshopper into his small purse, took out a handful of small candy from it, and gave one to each child, which really made the children very happy.
A child's friendship is simple and happy, or it starts with a grasshopper, or maybe it just starts with sharing a candy.
Jiang Yuqing helped Doctor Qiu to go down to the field and talked to the two sisters-in-law who picked peanuts.
The two women, who had never seen such a good-looking and easy-going lady, invited him very warmly to sit down and talk with Doctor Qiu.
Jiang Yuqing was not too dirty, he dragged over two piles of picked peanut seedlings, one by one, helped Doctor Qiu to sit down, took a handful of peanuts in his hand, and picked them up skillfully.
The two sisters-in-law were very surprised when they saw her neat posture at work: "Big sister, don't you look like a farmer when you look at the way you are dressed?" Why are you doing this so neatly? ”
Jiang Yuqing said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, don't look at me like this, I am also from a poor background."
Since he was two or three years old, he followed the elders of his family to the fields. Although I've been rusty over the years, I'll still do it. ”
The two women laughed: "You can see, you are a cool person." ”
With the addition of Jiang Yuqing and his entourage, the host's family harvested peanuts much faster.
At noon, the host's family was going back to eat, and they warmly invited their group to their house for dinner.
Jiang Yuqing was a little embarrassed: "Won't it be too troublesome, if we go, what can we do if your family's food is not cooked enough?" ”
The sister-in-law said, "Sure enough! Earlier, I asked my second son to go back and cook your meal.
Now it's not the past, no one lacks food to eat, and they are rich! ”
The group postponed but had to readily agree and followed the farmer.
