Chapter 683: Do Whatever the Edict Says

Bianliang is very hot and lively in summer. It is the center of the Song Dynasty. Whether it is officials or businessmen, this is their paradise.

If you are a businessman, it is best to visit Bianliang. There are many business opportunities out there, and it will open your eyes to countless ways to make money.

If you are an official, you'd better go and see Bianliang. There are countless high-ranking officials and powerful people there. As long as you can cling to one, your career will be extremely smooth.

This is a paradise for countless people!

Chang Er is such a farmer who yearns for heaven. He originally farmed in Wenfeng Village, but then a disaster struck and everyone in the village was in debt. In the end the land was taken away, leaving only his family.

At that time, Chang Er felt that Wenfeng Village was hell, and he and his son and daughter were struggling on the verge of death.

Until he heard a knock on the door and saw Zhao Zhongzhen and Shen An at that time. They really took care of Chen Daguan and took him to Beijing to see the official's family.

The officials are so kind!

Chang Er missed Zhao Zhen and couldn't help but have red eyes.

"Chang Er, come and move the goods!"

This is outside a shop. Chang Er is guarding the cart. His employer Yuan Xing has just concluded a deal.

Chang Er sighed and said, "The villain will be here soon."

He kept moving goods in and out, and by the time he was done, he was soaked with sweat.

He opened his clothes and said heartbrokenly, "My aunt just patched this up. If it gets soaked in salt again, it will rot."

Yuan Xin came out and said, "You wait outside, I and Mr. Li will go out for a drink, and we will leave the city when we come back."

The so-called Li Yuanwai is the owner of this shop. Yuan Wai Wai Wai means official, just like in later generations when everyone met outside for a drink, raising a glass was a greeting to 'a certain boss'. But in fact, everyone is either an employee or a worker. They have nothing to do with the boss. It is just a title to highlight their status.

Chang Er agreed, and Yuan Xin threw him a few pennies and said, "Don't say that someone is treating you badly. You can take this money and buy cooking cakes at home."

Chang Er flattered and took the copper coins with a smile. One penny fell on the ground and rolled under the cart. He leaned in to look for it, which made Yuan Xin laugh and curse: "It's just a penny, you are almost like a beggar, boring!"

The two of them left. Chang Er found the money, blew it and put it away. He happily sat on the shaft of the cart and said, "I'll buy some candies for the ax later..."

He hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed: "That's all, give some to the aunt."

"...Is the Golden Fat Pill really that good?"

"Of course, it's good. I've harvested two and a half liters more from one acre of land. Do you think that's okay?"

"One acre is more than two dou and a half liters? Are you bluffing me?"

"If you lie to me, you are not a human being!"

Chang Er listened to these words blankly, feeling that they were not very reliable.

"This golden fat pill was made by Shen Daizhao. Today, even the king came out, as well as Prime Minister Han and others. They went outside the city to weigh it. When they came back, Prime Minister Han was so happy that he threw his waist. "

When Chang Er heard about Shen Daizhao, he rushed over, stopped in front of the two men who were talking, and said with a flattering smile: "I dare to ask...Shen Daizhao...that golden fat pill was made by Daizhao." ?"

The two men were startled by the sudden appearance of Chang Er. They wanted to have a fit, but they restrained themselves after seeing that he was smiling in a flattering manner.

This is what the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person. It is one of the survival wisdom of the people at the bottom.

"Of course it was done by imperial edict. Now the recipe for Jin Feidan has been posted outside the Kaifeng government office. Many people are listening!"

Chang Er murmured: "One acre of land is more than two bushels and a half liters?"

The two people couldn't help but laugh when they saw his dullness, "Of course it's true. The people in the farm behind said that they didn't take good care of this crop of wheat, so they harvested less."

That Zhuangzi was a powerful one, so the farmers were naturally lazy when they could, so the harvest was less.

"ah!"

Chang Er immediately jumped up and said happily: "I believe in the imperial edict, I believe in the edict!"

Seeing that he was happy, the two people laughed and said, "Dai Zhao also said that these are all included in miscellaneous studies!"

"Miscellaneous studies?"

Chang Er said casually: "This is the knowledge to be edicted. If I ask my son to learn it in the future, I will definitely learn it."

The two men laughed and shook their heads when they saw that what he said was reasonable.

Chang Er paid someone to look after the cart and quickly ran to the government office.

"...all kinds of things must be mixed together, and then covered with a ragged mat or anything else, and then...the microorganisms mentioned in the imperial edict will take effect, and the inside will become hot...after a while Remember to turn over..."

Several clerks took turns reciting the instructions loudly. If you don't understand, you can go to the side and ask for advice.

Chang Er also followed.

There were several minor officials nearby. Chang Er went over and said with a flattering smile: "Dare I ask the officials, can you make hay?"

A clerk first glanced at the densely written paper, and then said: "It seems... yes, it is here, whether it is a straw mat or hay. You are smart, don't hesitate to look back, and do it quickly."

Chang Er nodded fiercely, turned around and ran away.

He kept talking about the method of Jin Feidan all the way. When he returned to the cart, Yuan Xin had already come back and said with a sullen face: "You don't want to do it anymore? If you don't want to do it, just get out!"

Chang Er was surprised at first, and then he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much."

Yuan Xin was stunned, but he didn't want to take it back after he said the words, so he said with a straight face: "If you work hard like you, don't regret it!"

Chang Er said: "A villain has no regrets."

Yuan Xin cursed secretly in his heart, and then said: "The remaining money will be paid to you."

This is the Song Dynasty, and this is Bianliang. In the future, such things as relying on wages will rarely happen.

After paying his wages, Chang Er bought some candy, and finally a square of ink, and hurried out of the city to go home.

He walked all the way to Wenfeng Village, and it was almost dark by the time he arrived. Those villagers were eating outside. When they saw him coming back, they asked, "Chang Er, why don't you work in the city anymore? Don't worry, your aunt takes good care of the family!"

Chang Er said: "It's a good thing! Come back to a certain house every time."

When he returned home, his daughter's aunt was cooking. When she saw him coming back, she said timidly: "Dad, the old man is reading!"

Chang Er said happily: "It's good to know how to read! I have to read it every day."

He took out the candy, bit off a small piece in his mouth and handed it to the aunt: "This is yours."

The aunt's eyes lit up, but she didn't dare to accept it: "Dad, I don't want to eat, give it to Da Lang."

Chang Er's eyes widened, and the aunt quickly answered, and then said: "Dad, I'm going to cook."

"go Go!"

Chang Er was in a very good mood, and the villagers came later.

"The house is cramped, so let's talk outside."

The outside was spacious. Chang Er talked about what he encountered in the city today...

"...Someone asked me earlier why I didn't work in the city and came back. I thought, if this acre of land can get two and a half liters more, why is I still working as a coolie in the city?"

The villagers were stunned at first, and someone said: "A certain person heard about this last year, saying that someone used some elixir to collect two buckets of several liters more. At that time, a certain person didn't believe it, and a certain person thought that this elixir was too powerful, and he was afraid. is fake……"

"Is it fake? Last year, someone said something good about elixirs and asked someone to follow suit, but someone didn't agree..."

Wenfeng Village is outside Bianliang, not too close or too far away. When Jin Feidan expanded to the surrounding areas of Bianliang last year, they were at the edge and were not affected.

"At that time, someone said it was impossible."

It's like an old driver who has been driving for a lifetime, and suddenly someone tells him that there is a new car with a speed of 600 kilometers per hour. The key is that this kind of car is easy to build and is becoming popular...

Do you believe it?

They didn’t believe it and now regret it.

"Chang Er, is it true? Don't lie to us!"

"That's right. If you lied to us, you won't be able to collect that much next year..."

"This is no small matter! We have to find a lot of things for the Golden Fertilizer Pill! The money is not much, but it takes a lot of work. If it is fake..."

Chang Er raised his head and said, "If it's fake, I'll compensate you!"

An old man frowned and said, "Chang Er, are you crazy? Do you know that if these families in the village want you to pay compensation, it won't be enough even if you sell the aunt."

"Daddy..."

Chang Er was about to retort when he heard his daughter's voice. He turned around and saw his daughter standing timidly in the door, tears gathering in her eyes.

"Dad, I know how to work, don't sell me..."

Chang Er wanted to get angry, but looking at this face that looked very similar to his late wife's, he felt sad and said, "If dad doesn't sell you out, he will let you marry a good family. When your brother becomes successful in his studies, let him marry him." Support me..."

Those tear-filled eyes were full of disbelief, and then there was joy.

"Let's go cook."

"good."

The aunt's footsteps were obviously a little brisk when she left.

Chang Er turned around, his eyes full of determination: "If it's fake, I'll pay for it!"

"You're crazy!"

When the old man saw that the surrounding villagers were rejoicing, he cursed: "Who gave you a favor to say good things about this golden fat pill? Stupid!"

The villagers want to do it, but they still have some doubts. If Chang Er is the guarantee, then the doubts are nothing!

Someone among the villagers said sarcastically: "It doesn't matter whether we should pay compensation or not, it's just a waste of time."

Chang Er said: "I will compensate you!"

The old man sighed: "You are crazy today, that's all, let's go."

Everyone turned around and prepared to go back to their homes...

This was a good intention, but Chang Er said: "This matter was brought about by Shen Daizhao!"

In an instant, the villagers stopped and turned around, and someone asked: "Are you really waiting for an imperial edict?"

The person who asked the question was a woman holding a three-year-old child with joy in her eyes.

The old man also changed his attitude: "Isn't it fake?"

Chang Er said: "It's true. After hearing about it, I went to the Kaifeng government office. The officials were reading notices outside, saying about the practice of this golden fat pill... I asked and said that it was done by imperial edict. . If you don’t do it, then someone will!”

He didn't know if these villagers would follow, so he said angrily: "That's it, it's up to you."

The woman picked up the child and said, "We will do everything that is waiting for the imperial edict and that has not been mentioned."

The old man came over and slapped Chang Er, who was stunned, and then cursed: "I told you that it was for the imperial edict, who wants you to pay for it?"

Chang Er said with a smile: "They also said that this is something from Taizhao's miscellaneous studies. I want to let Ax study hard in the future and study miscellaneous studies with Taizhao in the future."

"I don't want to talk about miscellaneous studies. Hurry up and call for people. Call everyone from every household. There is something good!"

Later, everyone in the village came out. The old man pointed at Chang Er and said, "Chang Er went to the city and learned that Daizhao had made a golden fertilizer pill. One acre of land can yield two and a half liters more. Can we do it?"

"Waiting for an edict? Do it!"

"Do it, definitely do it!"

"Without the imperial edict, how could we be where we are today? Do it, UU read books www.uukanshu.net We will do whatever the imperial edict tells us to do!"

The old man smiled and said: "Yes, people have to pay grudges and repay kindness and revenge. Otherwise, what is the difference between them and animals? We Wenfeng Village will never want such people."

Chang Er appeared and said: "The year before last, you were all kicked out by Chen Daguan. If you hadn't met the imperial edict, would there have been a good result?"

"No! If it weren't for the imperial edict, we might have been relocated elsewhere. How many people would have died along the way?"

"Then Senior Officer Chen is so powerful. The year before last, he said he would break the legs of anyone who dared to come back again. However, it was because he was so powerful that he broke his legs instead. Otherwise, it would be useless for us to come back. Then Senior Official Chen will definitely cause trouble from time to time."

Chang Er said with tears: "The year before last, Dai Zhao was really kind to me. He gave me money and food, and also let me see the official family... He even said something to me when I yelled at my aunt... He also let me live a good life, and I will give him money in the future." Auntie, find a good family..."

Behind the door, the aunt stood holding an earthen bowl. She stared outside blankly, tears falling down...
