Chapter 50 Can Dongzhu Li Know Qiuchou?

He came back after a while and picked up two people.

Li Longji knew one of the three, Wei Zhigu, who is now the Minister of Industry, and the other...who is it?

It is true that the seventh-rank official was too young in Chang'an, and only the fifth-rank official was allowed to attend the court meeting and stand outside.

They watched this seventh-grade official walk over with a cautious look on his face, his waist bent and his head lowered.

Zhang Shuo spoke first: "He's a member of the Ministry of Water Resources. This is Cheng Gu, a good friend of mine who I've had a few drinks with. He has some connections in Chang'an."

Zhang said he would introduce Wei Zhigu, but the junior official Zheng Guang had nothing to say.

Wei Zhigu nodded with a smile and said: "This Zheng Guang works in the Ministry of Water Resources. I am a distant nephew. When I mentioned that there is a village with good water conservancy, he insisted on coming to learn from it."

When Wei Lang, a member of the Ministry of Water Resources, was introduced, his body trembled slightly. When Wei Zhigu finished speaking, he forced out a smile as fast as he could: "Yes, I, my subordinate, I, I want to learn."

He wanted to cry and complained secretly, "You Wei Zhigu are the minister, I listen to you, I will come over."

But you didn't tell me that His Majesty is here, the King of Song is here, and Prime Minister Zhang is here. That woman is by His Majesty's side. She is obviously Queen Wang.

If I don’t come to die in your hands, I will die in the hands of His Majesty, right?

When Li Longji saw Wei Zhigu, he suddenly lost his anger. Brother Yi said that Wei Zhigu was not in good health and would probably die in the winter.

It was all because of his own demotion. He suddenly changed from prime minister to minister. The relationship between colleagues had to be re-established, and it was not easy to exchange favors.

Li Yi smiled, cupped his fists and saluted: "I don't know that Mr. Zheng came to the village in person, but I didn't greet him from afar. Please forgive me."

"Brother Yi, there's no need to be like this. It's only seventh grade, we can't be too short." Li Chengqi was unhappy.

We are having fun talking to Brother Yi. If you, a seventh-grade official, come over, we still have to hang around you?

You, a member of the Ministry of Water Resources, do you know as much about Datang's water conservancy as I do?

Zheng Guang's heart almost jumped out of his chest. He bowed his head to the ground and said, "Don't do this, Mr. Li. I heard that Mr. Li has many good remedies. I beg you to come to your door today."

"Commissioner Zheng, please don't be polite. If you have anything to say, please tell me. I am a soft-spoken person and I have many shortcomings. I will tell you for corrections."

Li Yi didn't want to offend officials. Small officials had some power, but they would cause trouble.

"Don't talk too much now, I'm waiting to see the scenery." Li Chengqi continued to protect Li Yi.

"Yes." Zheng Guang nodded vigorously.

Li Chengqi turned to Li Yi and said, "Brother Yi, don't put your mind on him. We, the emperor's relatives, have our own means."

Zheng Guang is about to cry again. Are you an ordinary relative of the emperor? You don’t know who is around you?

I can't afford to offend anyone here, but it looks like he's fine and won't die.

Li Longji spoke in a gentle voice: "Let's take a walk together to see the paddy fields, the ponds where ducks are raised, and how the water wheel on Baishui River is used."

"Yeah!" Zheng Guang was moved, and His Majesty never blamed him.

Wei Zhigu was equally worried. His Majesty came here again today. Zhang said, "What's the matter with you?" Aren't you going to take a break?

As everyone wandered around, Li Longji felt relieved and prepared to warn some people when he went back. Don't come over. This is my place, mine.

Zheng Guang walked at the back and observed Zhuangzi's situation carefully.

When planting rice, don't you just throw the seeds away? Someone penetrated? The seedlings grow so big.

Are those people from Zhangjia Village? They were collecting the excrement of chickens and ducks and putting it into baskets, which should be used for fertilizer.

There is a row of waterwheels by the Ba River, and there are craftsmen building them there.

The water wheel diverted water to shallow ponds, and people threw food for ducks into the ponds.

There are so many little ducks that they can even fall down while running.

I heard about the threshing and shelling machine connected to the water wheel, and there were people from outside bringing wheat for threshing in Zhuangzi.

A group of people dressed as students are there... watching the fun?

You guys are so generous. You didn't pass the exam this spring, so you're not in a hurry, and you have the time to watch others working.

While Zheng Guang was watching and thinking, the students also saw their group.

Zheng Guang wore official uniforms, and the official uniforms of seventh-rank officials were also official uniforms.

"The students who rent in Zhangjiacun don't want to gain fame." Li Chengqi was unhappy when he saw those people.

Everyone was laughing and pointing.

After he said what he said, those students suddenly changed, as if they heard what he said.

Stop smiling and tidy up your appearance.

Then he walked towards this side, looking in good temperament.

"Brother Li Xian invites you." The other party stood up, a leader with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a straight nose and a broad mouth, and a dignified appearance.

Li Yi cupped his fists and said, "This dear friend is here to invite you."

"Brother Li Xian is here to visit, but he doesn't know about the worries of autumn?" the other party said again.

"May I ask my dear friend..." Li Yi didn't know the other party, so he wanted to give me advice on what he was doing.

"Hengshan Zhao Xu and Zhao Shisanlang are here." The man who called himself Zhao Xu replied.

Li Yi was a little confused. There were many people named Zhao in the large area of ​​Hengshan. Where did you, the Thirteenth Prince, come from?

"Oh, it turned out to be Thirteenth Lang. Brother Zhao invited me." Li Yi cooperated.

"Brother Yi, does he know the sorrow of autumn?" Zhao Xu continued the topic just now.

"Why worry?" Li Yi felt that this person was on the right path, from Dongzhu Li to Brother Li Xian, and then to Brother Yi. How did you know that I am so close to you?

"There are four kinds of worries. One is the worry of not being able to catch the green and yellow and not having rice to cook."

"The second is the worry of increasing or decreasing crops after the autumn harvest."

"The third reason is that the rented servants have to deal with the numerous and powerless worries."

"The fourth is the sorrow of the bitter cold as winter approaches."

Zhao Xubaba listed four points in a clear and logical manner.

After that, he stood there and waited.

Waiting and waiting, no one said anything.

Li Yi finally understood that these students wanted to show their faces in front of officials and people who could easily tell they were wealthy.

It means that they have no choice but to meet a Bole.

Li Longji and others also know that when looking for investment, the problem is that if you just talk about the four worries, who of us can care about you?

Queen Wang wanted to laugh but suppressed it.

She looked at the students and then at Li Yi, feeling even more satisfied.

He thought: You can’t do it, UU reads www. uukanｓhu. net The court does not lack people like you, but it does need wizards like my uncle.

Zhao Xu was embarrassed. He was waiting for the noble man to ask about the specific things he was worried about so that he could show off his talent. What does it mean if he didn't answer the question?

Fortunately, others were more flexible and immediately changed the subject.

"Brother Yi, I watched you plant rice on the farm and composed a poem." Zhao Xu said.

Li Yi looked at him and finally relented, saying: "Please invite Thirteenth Lang to recite it."

"Listen carefully. The unlearned have a lot of hard work, and it is hard to know what the disciples of Heaven can do. I bow down to plant rice without seeing the sun, and the years are ravaged by each step I take."

Zhao Xu said.

Li Yi's pupils shrank, feeling dissatisfied.

The other party said that he had no knowledge, so he did hard work, and that he had nothing to do if he didn't understand the higher way of heaven, so he could only plant rice with his head down and couldn't see the sun. In the end, his life was the same as the work he was doing now, one step at a time, and the years passed by.

But working people live by their own abilities, isn’t it right?

It is sinful and not moral enough to belittle working people.

"Good poem." Li Yi handed over his hand and didn't want to say anything else.

Turning around, he said to Li Longji and others: "Shall we go see the construction of the sixth biogas digester?"

Li Longji nodded.

Li Yi turned around and walked, along with the others.

The students were dumbfounded and left? No, listen to us, then appreciate us, and then ask for recommendations.

"Brother Yi, can you give me some advice on my humble work?" Zhao Xu said loudly.

"No, it's a good poem. I'll recite it more when I get back." Li Yi turned around and handed over his hand again.

After everyone walked out for a while, Zhao Xu became anxious: "Dongzhu Li, they all say that you wrote the Three-Character Sutra, but we don't believe it."

"Wait a minute." Li Chengqi was unhappy and turned his head to look at the students.

Li Longji frowned.
