"Zhengxi, you kicked really well, hurry up and kick it to your daddy.~≥Top~≥Point~≥Little~≥Say, ww＠w.23≥wx.co■m"
"Okay! Daddy, I caught it."
"No!"
"boom!"
"Gee, husband, you lost again."
...
...
In the morning, several members of Li Qi's family came to the open space in the front yard to play Cuju. Of course, this was definitely not initiated by Li Qi, but by Li Zhengxi.
What's more important to Master Li is that they are playing fancy Cuju, and the ball cannot hit the ground.
The loser has to do ten push-ups.
There is no doubt that Master Li is definitely the worst among them, otherwise, he would not have brought those gangster tricks here.
"Hoo---ho---!"
Li Qi finished ten push-ups in one breath and said repeatedly: "I won't come, I won't come, you are bullying others."
Li Zhengxi stood there and giggled.
Li Qi glanced at Li Zhengxi and waved: "Son, come here."
Li Zhengxi ran over obediently and said, "Dad, what's the matter?"
Li Qi hummed: "Tell me the truth, who taught you this footwork?"
Li Zhengxi said: "Uncle Gao taught me."
Ji Hongnu came over, covered his lips and said with a sweet smile: "Brother, you don't know something. All the children in Gaoyanei are Cuju masters, and Zhengxi often plays with them, and also learned some Cuju skills. "
It's okay to teach Cuju, but don't teach my son bad. Li Qi looked depressed. After all, he knew the high school sophomore too well, and asked in a low voice: "Son, your uncle Gao didn't take you to Yingchun Building, did he?"
Ji Hongnu stomped his feet when he heard this. He quickly came over, covered Li Zhengxi's ears and said, "Brother, what did you say? How could I let them do this?"
"That's true. Aren't I just afraid that the Yamen will bring Zhengxi into trouble?" Li Qi said with a smile.
Feng Yinu and Yelv Guyu on the side also gave Li Qi a roll of his eyes.
Li Zhengxi asked curiously: "Dad, what are you talking about?"
"Nothing, nothing."
Li Qi smiled awkwardly and said, "Let's go inside and rest for a while."
Several people washed their hands and came to sit down in the house. Li Zhengxi suddenly said with a smile: "Dad, the Chinese New Year is coming soon."
Li Qi smiled and said: "Dad is free during the Chinese New Year this year, what do you want to play?"
"The child wants to play with firecrackers." Li Zhengxi said immediately.
"firecracker?"
Li Qi said in surprise: "Don't we play with firecrackers every year? It's rare that dad is free this year, so you just want to play with firecrackers?"
Li Zhengxi pouted and said: "But my mother said that firecrackers are dangerous, and that there is no difference between watching others play and playing with oneself. When the child grows up, he has only seen the third sister and the others playing with firecrackers from a distance."
Ji Hongnu frowned and said, "Zhengxi, you are still young, what if you hurt yourself? Mom is doing this for your own good."
This season Hongnu is really a strict mother when facing her son.
Li Zhengxi pursed his lips and secretly glanced at Li Qi with his small eyes. He did not dare to talk back to his mother.
Although a family must have a good person and a bad person, Li Qi would not undermine Ji Hongnu's majesty in front of Li Zhengxi, saying: "Your mother is right, you are still young. Playing with firecrackers is too much." Danger."
When Xiao Zhengxi heard this, his little face fell. This year he could only watch the senior high school girls and the others play with firecrackers from a distance.
Unexpectedly, Li Qi changed the subject and said, "But if you are accompanied by an adult, you can still play."
Li Zhengxi's eyes lit up and he said, "Dad, do you mean to play with the children with firecrackers?"
Li Qi smiled and nodded: "Not only that, dad will also help you prepare some particularly beautiful fireworks."
Li Zhengxi was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Thank you, dad."
Ji Hongnu glanced at his son, then at Li Qi, and said, "You will spoil him badly."
Li Qi smiled and said: "It is a child's nature to be playful and curious. As parents, we should try not to kill our children's nature."
At this time, Mrs. Chen suddenly walked in and said, "Sir, is the Dali envoy Duan asking for an audience outside the door?"
"Envoy Duan?"
Li Qi was stunned for a moment and said, "Duan Shiwen?"
Aunt Chen nodded.
Feng Yinu smiled and said: "Madam, you can't call me Envoy Duan now, you should call me Lord Duan."
"ah?"
Aunt Chen is now the chief steward of the Privy Council. Naturally, she is no longer what she used to be. She was stunned for a moment, then she came to her senses and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I just got used to it and haven't changed my mind."
"It's okay, it's okay. Go and ask Mr. Duan to come in."
Li Qi then said to Li Zhengxi: "Son, you and your mother go to the backyard to play first. Daddy will go play with you later."
"Oh. I'm leaving, kid."
Li Zhengxi was also very sensible. He stood up, bowed to Li Qi, and left with Ji Hongnu and the others.
Li Qi also got up and came to the front yard, but he was very curious in his heart. He had not received any news in advance, so why did Duan Shiwen suddenly arrive in Beijing? He sighed secretly, hoping that there would not be any trouble in the second county.
After a while, Duan Shiwen came to the front yard under the guidance of Mrs. Chen. As soon as he saw Li Qi, he hurried over and saluted: "Your Majesty, Duan Shiwen, is here to see the Privy Councilor."
Now it is no different than before. He was also an official of the Song Dynasty, so naturally he could lower himself to an official position.
When Li Qi heard the word "downgrade", he couldn't help sighing. He hurriedly stepped forward and said: "No courtesy, please forgive me quickly. This is a private place. Brother Duan, please don't see me outside." Waiting for Duan Shiwen.
Raising his head, he cupped his hands again and said, "Brother Duan, you're fine."
Duan Shiwen hurriedly cupped his hand and said, "The Privy Envoy is concerned about me, everything is fine."
"That's good!" Li Qi stretched his hand into the room and said, "Please."
The two came to the house, and the servants served them tea and cakes.
Li Qixiao asked: "When did Brother Duan come to Beijing?"
"Oh, I came to Beijing last night. I came here early this morning to visit the Privy Councilor. I hope I didn't disturb the Privy Councilor." Duan Shiwen saw that Li Qi was very casual. He had no official airs and no longer pretended to be a lower official.
"What's the point of disturbing me? It's too out-of-touch."
Li Qi waved his hand and asked: "Then why does Brother Duan come to Beijing this time?"
Duan Shiwen said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just went to Beijing on the order of King Zhennan to report to the emperor on the situation in Dali and Jiaozhi counties in the past few years."
He used to go to Beijing just to beg for help. Now that Dali Kingdom no longer exists, the burden on his shoulders is much lighter, and his words and deeds are also very relaxed. Unlike before, when he met, he would either cry or kneel down.
"Yeah?"
On the contrary, Li Qi seemed a little uncomfortable. He subconsciously thought that Duan Shiwen came to him because he had something to ask for.
Duan Shiwen understood in his heart why Li Qi had such a reaction, and smiled slightly awkwardly: "I am deeply sorry for causing you so much trouble in the past, and please forgive me, Privy Councilor."
Li Qi was startled, then said, "How could it happen? Being able to get to know Brother Duan. That's my fate, Mr. Li."
This is true. If Duan Shiwen hadn't taken the initiative to send it to his door, where would Li Qi have cried for Zhao Kai?
He then heard Li Qi ask: "How is the situation in the second county in the past few years?"
When it came to the second county, Duan Shiwen was very excited and said: "To be honest with the Privy Council, the second county now has a completely new look. The roads extend in all directions, the houses are like forests, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. It's so good. If it weren't like this, how could I have the face?"
Come and see the Emperor."
Li Qi nodded and said: "That's good, that's good." He felt really relieved. Tubo had just been recovered, and now he no longer had the energy to take care of the two counties.
Duan Shiwen added: "It's all thanks to the decrees promulgated by the Privy Council in the second county. Now everyone has a field and can do farm work. It's a hundred times more energetic. Now in the second county, you can see thousands of fertile fields like those in the south of the Yangtze River."
The scene of acres of land is not only that. At first, the Privy Council led wealthy businessmen from Jiangnan to do business in the Lingnan area. Those wealthy businessmen came to the second county to contribute money and help the second county to widen roads and build houses. At the beginning of last year, Nanhai Prefecture welcomed another
The first batch of merchants from the Western Regions made the King of Zhennan and the people of the two counties very happy, and also brought a lot of wealth to the two counties.
Haha, since the flow of people in the Lingnan area has increased and the roads have been widened, the miasma malaria in Cochin has been reduced a lot. Oh, and also, isn't the imperial court planning to build hospitals across the country recently?"
Li Qi nodded and said, "Yes."
Duan Shiwen said: "Building a hospital naturally requires medicinal materials. When it comes to these medicinal materials, there are so many in the two counties, so the King of Zhennan ordered to protect some medicinal material production areas, and even renamed an area rich in medicinal materials as Yao
state."
Li Qi was overjoyed and very happy in his heart, and said: "Well done, everyone will get sick, medicinal materials are indispensable, and some precious medicinal materials are not cheap, if the second county can make this its own characteristic
, I dare say that this medicinal material alone can bring immeasurable wealth to the two counties."
"Yes, yes, King Zhennan thinks so too."
As he spoke, Duan Shiwen suddenly thought of something, patted his forehead lightly, and said: "Sorry, sorry, I almost forgot. In fact, there is another reason why I came here this time, which is to give something to the Privy Councilor.
"
That's right, you usually use a car to haul gifts. Today, you come here with nothing. This is outrageous. Li Qi also reacted and said with a smile: "Hey, now we are officials in the same dynasty.
, there is no need for any gifts, please don’t go to such trouble next time, it’s not easy for you to come here!”
Duan Shiwen heard that the key to the whole sentence was "next time". But his face looked slightly embarrassed and said: "Privy Councilor, that's it. Do you still remember the coffee trees planted in Jiaozhi?"
"Coffee---coffee tree?"
Li Qi was stunned for a moment, nodded, and said, "Remember, aren't they all dead?"
Duan Shiwen hurriedly shook his head and said: "Of course not, but the first batch of coffee beans has already produced fruit in the middle of this year. The farmers arranged by the Privy Council to take care of the coffee trees have already carried out preliminary processing according to the Privy Council's requirements. Originally, they
I was going to transport it to Beijing myself and let the Privy Councilor identify whether it was the coffee beans that the Privy Councilor wanted. It happened that I was also coming to Beijing, so I asked me to transport them."
Li Qi blinked and said, "You mean the coffee beans have been delivered to Beijing."
Duan Shiwen nodded and said: "That's right. There are a hundred barrels in total, and they are right outside the door now."
Li Qi exclaimed and stood up in excitement, saying: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Let's go and have a look." As he said that, he pulled Duan Shiwen and walked quickly out the door.
When I came outside the door, I saw a long motorcade parked in front of the door, with barrels on it. It can be seen that there is really no shortage of wood in the second county.
"Slow down, slow down, don't disturb my baby."
Li Qi saw a group of reckless men unloading goods and was extremely nervous. He quickly reminded them and walked to a pile of wooden barrels. His mouth was trembling with excitement. He stretched out his hand to the side and said: "Tools, tools."
Someone on the side quickly handed over an iron rod with a pointed end.
Li Qi held the iron bar and began to beat up and down in his heart. What if the coffee beans in the barrel were not the coffee beans he imagined? After hesitating for a while, he took a deep breath and gritted his teeth to pry open the lid of the barrel.
.
As soon as the lid of the wooden barrel was opened, a strong fragrance hit your face.
This is the smell of green coffee beans!
Li Qi was drunk.
