The construction of the village is going very fast, and there will be two new houses in the village tomorrow. If you focus on time from the perspective of time lapse, you will find that each house is like pulling onions on dry land. In just three years,
It has already reached scale within a few months.
There is also a huge castle-like building to be built in the village. This is Li Yuelai's inspiration. Western love stories are always inseparable from castles.
It's just that the castle in Li Yue's impression is a bit weird.
This castle is not Western at all. The drawings were designed by Li Yue. She gave full play to her imagination and came up with the drawings. At first glance, it looks more like a war fortress.
Alas... let her go as she pleases.
What makes Niu Chuang confused is that this castle is not for people to live in at all, but for people to visit. What do you mean, this is an attraction? This is art?
Incredible uses.
Her Royal Highness has a lot of money, so it's understandable that she wants to squander some. This is the only reason Niu Chuang can think of.
The field reclamation in the village has been completed. In August, the fields here will be golden, which is the scene of a bumper harvest.
The village organized personnel to patrol the fields frequently to prevent anyone from stealing grain.
Zhang Gongjin's wife looked at Li Yue concentrating on the drawings and asked, "Your Highness, what kind of person is the consort?"
After hearing his wife's question, Li Yue put down the pen in his hand and said, "My husband is a very strange person."
Zhang Gongjin's wife subconsciously looked at Zhang Yang who was talking to her old guy.
Li Yue looked at her husband with a smile, "What would my wife do if there was a fire at home?"
"I know how to put out fires."
"That's it. What if the fire is already very big?"
"It's better to put out the fire." She replied decisively.
Li Yue picked up her small tea cup, which also had a picture of a bear drawn on it, "If a husband sees a fire in his home, he will not rush to put out the fire. He will look at the fire and smile with relief, and then pick up the torch.
The neighbor’s house was also burned down.”
Hearing this reply, Zhang Gongjin's wife was stunned for a long time. She wanted to say something but it was difficult to comment. Who was this person?
The conversation between the master and the apprentice continued. Zhang Gongjin listened to the whole plan for Gaochang, "Do you think the people in the Western Regions are ignorant and shallow and do not understand the profound meaning?"
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "There must be smart people. If there are just three or two smart people who see through the plan, they will be killed. Human life is not valuable in that kind of place."
Zhang Gongjin nodded slightly, "I have always felt that Han Feizi was a person who understood people's hearts very clearly. It is recorded in the classics that he said that people would obey the powerful, but they would not have the righteousness of the world in their hearts."
After saying this, Zhang Gongjin let out a long sigh, "These words are a little too generous and too heart-wrenching. If you do whatever it takes to achieve your goals and regard everyone as your enemy, this may be the easiest way to succeed."
Lying in the sun, enjoying the feeling of the sun shining on his body, Zhang Gongjin is not afraid of the hot sunshine. Instead, he likes the feeling of sweating very much. It makes him feel like he is young again and makes him feel full of energy.
The illusion of vitality.
When I was young, I would often sweat profusely, but as I got older, the frequency of sweating became less and less.
Zhang Yang handed Zhang Gongjin a bowl of cold boiled water, "Teacher, be careful to drink more water. You may suffer from heatstroke and dehydration."
"Divine Doctor Sun checks my pulse from time to time. He says that my condition has stabilized a lot. You said that the way to recuperate is still useful after all."
"Recuperation requires an environment and a good attitude. The teacher keeps himself locked up in the house, and no one talks to the teacher. In this way, recuperation can lead to illness, such as psychological illness."
Zhang Gongjin sat up and said, "Do you want Xu Jingzong to take up the important task of the Ministry of Rites, so that you can get out of it from now on?"
"I disappoint the teacher. I didn't originally want to be an official."
"It can be seen that if you don't have this ambition, you are a useless person."
Zhang Yang looked melancholy, "I just want to live a prosperous life. Why do everyone say that I am a good-for-nothing? Why do you think that getting rid of poverty and getting rich is also a good-for-nothing? It is so puzzling. Does this world still understand?
My people."
Zhang Gongjin smiled instead, "People like you really feel that there are no similar people in the world. Birds of a feather flock together and people are divided into groups. You will live a very lonely life in the future."
"I will have many, many children with my wife. I will tie up my children and let them talk to me every day, so that I will not feel lonely."
"You are a cruel person for torturing your own child like this."
After chatting with the teacher, Zhang Yang suddenly understood Cheng Chumo's feelings, why no one in this world understands me.
A little bear and two geese were fighting inextricably.
This is its greatest progress, at least it has not been crushed by these two geese.
Zhang Yang picked it up and threw it into the carriage.
He took another look at Li Tai, who was sweating profusely while working.
Looking up at the cloudless blue sky, it didn't matter that the teacher saw through it, and the teacher even told him that it was.
This feeling of being revealed is very unpleasant.
Seeing that the little bear was about to climb out of the carriage again, Zhang Yang reached out and pinched the back of its neck and threw it into the carriage again.
It refuses to admit defeat and continues to climb out.
He even stretched out his claws to resist and bit his clothes with his mouth.
However, it couldn't escape the claws and was thrown back into the carriage again.
The little bear was furious and exhausted. It looked at Zhang Yang as if it were a demon king, and the hostility in its eyes seemed to say that it would eventually defeat this demon king.
Li Yue also came back, and Master's mother said goodbye to her.
The carriage was on its way home. Li Yue sat on the shaft of the carriage, dangling her feet in the air, "Husband, let's go to Qujiang Pond to have a look and have a meal there by the way."
Aunt Wang smiled and said, "I happened to pick some wild vegetables and brought the duck from the village."
Just a short distance away from the village, Li Tai's carriage caught up with him.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhang Yang looked back in confusion, this little fat guy is really getting better and better at cheating on his food, and everyone he knows has the habit of cheating on his food.
It's one thing to have honest folk customs, but seeing honest people come here every day to have a meal is a bit too bullying.
Sure enough, when we arrived at Qujiang Pool, this little fat man came up to us.
Seeing the resentful look on his face, Zhang Yang waved the fan in his hand and said, "Your Highness, King Wei, please speak directly if you have anything to say."
Li Tai straightened his sleeves and said, "When I lost, as agreed, all the money you asked for was paid to the Turks, but you had to pay 40% of the tax. All 40% of the money went to the Ministry of Rites."
"Does His Highness the King of Wei want to say that our Ministry of Rites has enriched our own pockets?"
Li Taidi's chubby face twisted, "Originally, these 40% are taxes, why not just make it cheaper by 40%? Furthermore, after talking about the money, it seems that the 40% is allocated to the Ministry of Rites."
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "If the Ministry of Rites wants to develop, it needs money. I asked your father for 10,000 guan, but your father refused to give it, so I can only earn it myself."
"If you want money, just ask. Why do you need such a name?"
"Because there must be rules, even if the last money goes into our pockets, it must be justified."
"I understand, you are so shameless."
Zhang Yang struck the little fat man on the forehead violently, "If His Highness King Wei says that again, I will beat you up."
Li Tai gritted his teeth, "Bad guy! Those are all my money."
Zhang Yang hit Li Tai on the head with another violent blow.
After a long silence, Li Tai saw Zhang Yang washing half of the fat duck that had been killed with pool water. He calmed down again, his eyes full of murderous intent, and sooner or later he would get back the money he had paid.
Anyway, the cane sugar from Lingnan is about to be delivered, and the warehouse of Prince Wei's mansion is always ups and downs, and the lives of the servants in Prince Wei's mansion are also ups and downs.
His Highness the King of Wei has made money, and everyone has meat to eat.
Because of a bet, His Royal Highness the King of Wei lost all his family property. This time, the people in the mansion had to eat cakes. The cakes were hard after being left for a long time, and they had to be held in the mouth for a long time before they could bite.
Li Tai has one in his hand now, and the cake is bigger than his face.
After piling up the wood in Qujiang Pond and lighting a fire, the ducks were placed beside the fire to roast.
Li Yue washed the millet, then put the millet in the pot to boil in the fire. After washing the wild vegetables, boiled the wild vegetables, put them into the millet and rice, stirred for a while, and then took it out and it was a very tempting bowl.
of vegetable rice.
Li Tai swallowed hard.
Zhang Yang patiently applied some sauce to the duck and said, "Don't you have anything to cook at the residence of His Highness the King of Wei?"
Li Tai held the cake hard in his hand. The cake was very hard. "I have given you all the money in the mansion to do business. How can I still have money to eat?"
Reluctantly, he gave Li Tai a bowl of millet rice.
Li Tai sniffed aggrievedly and shed tears, "These days are really too hard."
Li Tai and Cheng Chumo, why should the three parties join forces to do business, whether it is soap and cakes, or braised pork, because the molecules are exchanged.
Everyone's resources are also shared.
If one party is out of stock, the other party can replenish it.
Although the business is not very big yet, it is already a household name in Chang'an City.
Judging from the current scale of business, Li Tai's hard life will not last long. As long as next month's accounts arrive and the money is distributed, his life can be nourished again.
After the village is built, reintegrate these transactions and gather resources.
Zhang Yang looked at Li Tai, "Hasn't His Highness the King of Wei ever thought of buying back the Queen's share?"
"Buy it back?" Li Tai dug into the millet rice bite by bite and asked while chewing it, "Can I still buy it back?"
"of course."
"But that's the Queen Mother. It's not appropriate to buy things back after giving them to the Queen Mother."
Zhang Yang turned the roast duck over and continued to roast it, "If there are family members involved in business matters, it will be a lot of constraints, and may even cause conflicts of interest. Maybe it is still early, and we need to separate it when the conditions are mature in the future.
Take back all the elements, including those in the hands of your uncle Changsun Wuji."
Li Tai swallowed the rice in his mouth, "What you do is like using people up and then throwing them away."
"His Royal Highness, King Wei, is wrong. Business is always a transaction. Naturally, the money given to us at the beginning must be bought back with more money, and the resources can be reintegrated and collected. Our scale is not large, so we just use the money to build our business."
It's not a good thing to start a business."
Zhang Yang picked up a piece of wood and made an analogy, "When I give this stick to His Highness the King of Wei, then it has the value of a gift. No matter how small the value is, it is valuable.
And when I buy it back from His Highness the King of Wei for 10,000 guan, then it is worth 10,000 guan."
Li Tai was so hungry that he put the rice in his mouth vigorously, "If the value is enough, there will be no loss to the mother. Business is business and cannot be affected by other factors."
The little fat man is not stupid, he understands quickly.
When the outside members reach a certain value, they can be withdrawn.
The portions given now are actually not of high value.
It can be sold at a relatively low price.
After Li Tai takes back these shares, he can increase the price of the shares again through business operations.
Zhang Yang gave Li Tai another duck leg while the little fat man was also growing.
He will need to continue to ride the waves in the shopping malls of Chang'an City in the future, but he can't have any physical problems.
This is a good money tree.
Moreover, this money tree is His Royal Highness the current King of Wei. This identity will also make the money tree more stable.
Li Tai had a very satisfying lunch, and now he was lying under the shade of a tree to rest.
The two aunts tidied up the place.
The couple left.
The little bear followed step by step. Its legs and feet were still very short.
She could only use her clumsy paws to hold onto her aunt's legs and sit on her feet, otherwise she wouldn't be able to keep up.
After returning home, the little bear went into the woodshed at home to sleep.
He has an inexplicable obsession with the smell of wood.
Sure enough, it took a bite of the wood and then spit it out. It didn't taste good to it, and then scratched the wood with its paws to vent its anger.
"Isn't it full?" Zhang Yang asked doubtfully.
"I've eaten two bowls of millet rice. I should be full." Li Yue walked into the room holding a stack of books.
When traveling between the village and his home, he used to go out empty-handed. Later, when Li Yue went to the village, he would always carry his own booklet in his hand.
Nowadays, when she goes to the village, she brings a pile of books and drawings with her, and the carriage becomes her mobile office.
Because we need to do research and experiments.
The entire village belongs to her, and the entire village has almost become a place for her to conduct various experiments.
Now she is researching applications of wind power.
Let the people in the village build her a windmill.
My daughter-in-law finally left the path of science and engineering forever.
Zhang Yang sat down in the yard and enjoyed the cool breeze blowing for a moment.
The family has gone from being very poor to becoming a wealthy family in Chang'an City. My daughter-in-law, a little rich woman, has little consumption needs.
Originally, her need for money was not that great. For her, having enough food and clothing was already enough for her.
When she walked out of the room again, she was patrolling the yard, counting the family's property, "Well, we are almost running out of paper, we have finished eating the salted duck eggs, we are still short of salt, lard, and we still need some millet.
"
After making the list, Li Yue gave it to Aunt Wang and asked her to buy it on her behalf.
Seeing her looking at him, Zhang Yang relaxed his limbs and said, "It's lunch break time now."
Li Yue sat down obediently and said, "There is no paper at home."
"Go buy it." Zhang Yang turned over. Are you kidding me? Does the family still lack this little money?
"The paper I bought is too bad, not as good as the one you made."
