Chapter 637(1/2)
Shenjiazhuang used to be a place that was inconspicuous. Not to mention the officials, even officials had never been there.
Everyone thought this would be the case here in the future, but unexpectedly, they changed their owners.
This owner is a little young, and everyone is a little unsure. I don’t know what he will make Zhuangzi.
With the construction of the workshop and the production of Xianglu, the farmers in the village were shocked.
This owner is so bold!
So everyone returns home.
"I've met Mr. Lang!"
"I've met Mr. Lang."
Chen An and Zhao Zhongzhen were walking on the village, and the farmers they met along the way greeted them respectfully.
"This is prestige."
Zhao Zhongzhen was thinking about the situation in the palace and felt that he needed to be more cruel to shock those people.
"Presentment is something accumulated from many aspects."
Chen An said: "For example, if you have money, or you have power, or you are particularly smart, then you will have prestige. The prestige of an emperor comes from intelligence. If you can avoid being deceived or suppressed by your ministers, this is prestige."
Zhao Zhongzhen said thoughtfully: "Prestige lies in strength."
"That's right!"
Chen An felt that he had brought out a different Shenzong than in history. What would happen in the future? He really hoped.
"The official family's health looks pretty good."
"Well, walking is a bit soft, Chen Zhongheng has to support him from time to time."
"Then let's take a rest for a while."
The accompanying imperial doctor found Chen An: "Stayed Emperor, it's time for His Majesty to take medicine. Are there any safe stoves and jars here?"
"have."
Chen An took them to find the kitchen, and the chef was immediately quarantined and questioned.
"That's it."
The guards began to check, then set fire and decoct medicine.
Seeing that they were in trouble, Chen An said, "Why don't you bring the medicine out after decocting it? This way, just heat it up."
This is how the decoction business of later generations came about.
The doctor who was squatting on the ground and fanning himself looked up at him, "Stayed, after the medicine is boiled, you must take it as soon as possible. If it is hot again... the medicine will run away."
Well, Chen An was despised.
After coming out, Zhao Zhen happened to come over.
"I'll look at your house."
This is the main house in the village. After buying the village, Chen An was completely renovated, so it seems very new at this moment.
“It looks very simple!”
Zhao Zhen also came out of the palace a lot, so he is more familiar with the situation of his ministers' families.
Chen An glanced at Han Qi behind him. It is said that the decoration of this guy's home is quite luxurious.
"Officials, life is only a hundred years old. What's the use of food and accommodation? As long as you feel comfortable, it's good."
Zhao Zhen nodded, "This is a great word."
"elder brother……"
Guoguo happened to run out to find her brother, but she ran into Zhao Zhen and her party.
You can't hide, it will look petty.
"This is the official."
Guoguo is very honest and blessed: "I have met the official family."
Zhao Zhen was in a very good mood and said with a smile: "Your sister is older."
Chen An kept ringing the alarm bell in his heart and said, "Yes, but it's still a bit naughty."
Zhao Zhen said disapprovingly: "Children should be naughty, otherwise they should be boring when they grow up."
This person probably wants to have a healthy child, so he loves Guoguo, which looks extremely healthy.
Guoguo then took the lead, and he was so stern that people couldn't find any mistakes, which made Zhao Zhen nod frequently.
Chen An glanced at Zhao Zhongzhen behind him and thought to himself if the official dared to promise you Guoguo, I will make you regret it!
“This cotton…the cotton cloth is excellent.”
Zhao Zhen reached out to take a piece of cotton cloth from Chen Zhongheng and said, "This thing is solid and warm. Once the people plant it themselves, they can text it themselves. In addition to dressing at home, they can also sell it. This is the second benefit."
Ouyang Xiu touched the dozens of cotton balls in his sleeve and said, "The government has many fertile fields in the south, and they are cooked twice a year. If they are used to grow cotton, the people will probably refuse!"
Everyone nodded, but Han Qi said coldly: "Just force them to plant."
Well, this one is a strong point.
Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "After all, it's not good. I'll be sad when the time comes."
Everyone was a little sad, thinking that such a good thing should be filled with the Song Dynasty, but what should the people do if they disagree?
Chen An waited by the side, and after the atmosphere gradually became a little depressed, he said: "Official family, this cotton is actually the most suitable for planting in one place."
"where?"
"Where is the Uighurs in Xizhou."
The king and his ministers were silent.
"Where is Xixia?"
"right!"
Seeing that Zhao Zhen was a little disbelief, Chen An said, "The official family has a big sun over there and there are not many cloudy days. It is most suitable for cotton growth..."
"Tsk!"
Han Qi said with some headache: "When the Song Dynasty went to the Xizhou Uighurs, there was a Xixia in the middle. How can I go?"
It’s just that Xixia is separated by the middle!
Chen An felt that interests were the driving force of the war, so he said with a pure face: "I swear that cotton cultivation is the most suitable for over there."
Han Qi said suspiciously: "You can't have such an explanation just to encourage the Song Dynasty to start a war against Xixia, right?"
He felt that this possibility was very high.
Zhao Zhen was also a little hesitant, Zeng Gongliang was making soy sauce, Ouyang Xiu was pretending to be a contemplative person...
"Huh!"
Just when Shen An felt that Ouyang Xiu was pretending to be stupid, he exclaimed and said, "Officials, I remembered something... Back then... During the previous dynasty, there was white cloth inside the things that the Uighurs paid tribute..."
The so-called previous dynasty was the Zhou Kingdom of the Chai clan.
Han Qi frowned and said, "You remember correctly?"
He felt that Ouyang Xiu was old and should go home to take care of his old age, rather than hang out in the political affairs hall.
Ouyang Xiu's eyes turned, and after a while, he determined his position, and then said lightly: "Is Han Xiang going to discuss knowledge with me?"
Han Qi was silent in an instant.
The old man in front of me is the leader of the literary world of the Song Dynasty. Are you sure you want to compete with him?
Han Qi refused to be humiliated, so he retreated.
"White cloth?"
Zhao Zhen touched the white cloth in his hand and said to Chen An: "Others ridiculed you for being ignorant, but you read a lot of books and are very knowledgeable... Why don't you refute it?"
this……
Chen An smiled and looked at it with a little bitterness: "Since I have taken the official career, I have done everything for the Song Dynasty. Many things cannot be explained... If I explain everything, how can I still have the time to do it?"
Zhao Zhen praised: "I don't like the ministers who talk big, but I always see the ministers who are busy doing things. You are very good."
Ouyang Xiu praised: "If everything is explained, but this official is a bit fake, this person in Anbei can be called a gentleman."
Yes! Brother is a gentleman!
Chen An looked righteous.
It’s not that I’m so strong that I know the cotton planting site, but that I know the cotton planting site in later generations. Every year when it comes to picking, those people flock to that place like migratory birds, which is impressive.
However, he would accept Qiang Wenboji's praise without hesitation.
"What else...the cotton-spreading?"
To be continued...
