Fangyuan raised his hand and lightly wiped his tears.
Long Lin looked at it with a smile in his eyes.
He was especially able to understand Fangyuan's mood. He had only been away from the capital for a long time, but when he returned to the capital, he still felt a lot in his heart.
Especially the moment he saw his mother, he almost couldn't help but burst into tears.
And this square circle has been gone for four years.
The place he went to was the even more distant Persia.
Fangyuan's complexion has obviously become older than before. The old man's energy and energy in the hall when he first met him can now be clearly found that it is completely gone.
There was a hint of calmness on the square surface, as if a big knife of time had struck him hard several times on the cheek.
The two of them looked at Situ Heng beside them.
At this time, Situ Heng was standing there calmly, looking at his three sons. The three of them were very healthy, with no arms or legs missing. Seeing such a scene, he immediately thanked God in his heart.
After the three of them raised their heads, they also looked at him.
Situ Heng originally thought that after seeing him, the three of them would fly into a rage and completely burst out the emotions that he had hidden back then.
However, the three obviously did not.
The three of them were very calm, just standing there and looking at him.
After a moment, the three of them came forward respectfully, came to Situ Heng, and knelt down respectfully.
As soon as he knelt down, Situ Heng's tears fell instantly.
The three of them have finally changed and are no longer the same as before.
"Father, my son is back. Please accept my son's kneeling. I have been unfilial in the past. I hope your father can forgive me."
...
The words spoken by the three people were all equally full of affection.
Long Lin saw it and was immediately surprised.
He was no stranger to these three people. He had heard clearly about their deeds when he was outside the door.
But the three people in front of them are not the same as those who said before. The changes in the three people are so huge.
In an instant, Long Lin's heart was filled with surprise. He turned his head and looked directly at Fangyuan. Although he didn't know what happened, he was probably the one who understood the changes among these three people best.
Fangyuan just smiled softly at this.
Situ Heng stepped forward and helped the three of them up one by one. The hopeful look on their cheeks made the three of them tremble.
Everyone returned to the mansion and sat together again.
Situ Heng's three sons were very busy and respectful, taking good care of Situ Heng in every aspect.
Situ Heng, on the other hand, was a little restless. Have these three people really changed, or are they pretending to be like this in front of him on purpose?
Are these still his three sons? He dared not recognize them.
Fangyuan and Fang Pu sat together and began to talk about their trip to Persia.
Long Lin listened very carefully and was also horrified.
During this mission, Fangyuan's harvest was huge. Unsurprisingly, the silk clothing and porcelain tea he carried were sought after by countless people. Most of those pieces were sold for sky-high prices.
Fangyuan was indeed a shrewd man, some were given away, some were sold, and he collected countless amounts of money both openly and secretly.
While collecting the things arranged by Long Lin, Fangyuan conducted a large number of transactions with the local area. Fangyuan brought back a large number of seeds, including cattle, sheep, horses and livestock. Fangyuan did not let go of any novel gadgets.
Everything was going smoothly at first, but when all the transactions in Fangyuan were sold out, he started to return with his envoy team.
But unexpectedly, it happened at this time.
The Persian army directly surrounded them, and a fierce decisive battle began. After a bloody battle, they were trapped in the middle.
At that moment, all of them felt that they were probably going to die.
In order to bring these things back to the Long Dynasty, Fangyuan was so anxious that he started to negotiate with the other party.
They originally thought that the Persian army would wipe them all out, but they didn't. Instead, they accepted his negotiation.
But on their side, they actually have no power to resist.
In order for Fangyuan to show his sincerity, Persia tied up Situ Heng's three sons directly.
The negotiations were very intense, and the Persian intention was very obvious, which was to let them keep the gold and silver and take away the seeds and horses obtained in exchange.
Fangyuan was having a heated conversation with the other party without giving in at all. He was already determined to die.
He just wanted to use Persia to fear the Dragon Dynasty and gain a chance of survival.
At the last moment, Persia obviously relaxed its attack on them. It seems that there was a trace of fear in its heart.
Fangyuan didn't say much about how difficult the process was.
But Fangyuan still succeeded and brought everything back. Originally, Persia wanted to keep three people as hostages, but Fangyuan refused to comply. In the end, they were trapped for a long time before they were released.
Fangyuan guessed that there must be some opposition within Persia, and they must have heard about the Dragon Dynasty's strength.
In short, some soldiers were sacrificed, but most of them came back unscathed.
After the three were taken away, they actually did not experience any torture. They were just not given food from time to time and would go hungry for several days and nights.
The three of them went through this experience for a year.
When Fang Yuan saw them, the three of them were already dying, with only one breath left. If it weren't for the imperial doctor accompanying them, the three of them would probably have to stay on the land of Persia forever.
And this is the reason why the three people changed.
Long Lin finally understood that without experiencing life and death, it is difficult for a person to change greatly, but if a person has not changed in his whole life, he is the most pitiful person and the person who has lived his life in vain.
People always have to change before they can become human beings. Otherwise, wouldn't they be no different from animals?
We had a banquet and had a great time.
Finally, Long Lin sent them all out one by one.
After a day's rest, Long Lin immediately went with Fangyuan to check out the large amount of things that Fangyuan had brought back.
The first thing to look at is the seeds.
There were so many seeds that Long Lin didn't recognize some of them at all, but Long Lin recognized the petals of a pot of potatoes at a glance.
After the potatoes grow and the petals open, they look very beautiful.
In the beginning, it was regarded as something to appreciate. It was only later that people discovered that the potatoes grown underneath could be eaten.
With Tudou, Long Lin was undoubtedly extremely happy.
Today's potatoes are definitely very small. They have to be planted countless times and choose large ones as seeds. Over time, they will become bigger.
In addition to potatoes, there are also some livestock.
Long Lin began to arrange these properly. Every detail was given to Fang Pu and Situ Heng.
