Take Taobao to ancient times

After returning home from his uncle's house, Lu Siyu thought a lot, such as the road construction he mentioned before.

China has always been known as an infrastructure madman. Even in the 21st century, it continues to build infrastructure. The concept of "to get rich, build roads first" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

This shows that road construction is indeed very important.

In fact, the best way to build roads is to use cement, concrete, or asphalt. The former two have not yet appeared in this era. As for asphalt, there is natural asphalt, but in his position, he must not have access to natural asphalt.

The ancient way of road construction is relatively simple is to ram the earth directly to make the dirt road solid, so that the original good road will not become mud pits just because of light rain, but this method is not very good. .

In addition, it is to build stone roads and wooden roads. These two methods are not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also expensive, and only rich people, or relatively affluent areas, can build them.

In fact, his initial idea was to use cement. However, although he could buy cement on Taobao, if he really bought cement from Taobao to pave the road, his little money would not be able to repair the road for a long time, and he would go bankrupt.

So he is thinking about road construction now.

Putting this matter aside for the time being, Lu Siyu returned home, just in time to see Zhuang Jinhan biting a piece of dried sweet potato in his hand.

"I'm going to starve to death if you don't come back." Zhuang Jinhan complained.

"Aren't you eating?" Lu Siyu glanced at him and said with a smile.

"I'm really hungry." Zhuang Jinhan smiled, "But the taste of this dried sweet potato is really good. I didn't expect this thing to be able to make so many tricks."

"Don't eat too much, be careful of diarrhea." Lu Siyu warned as a person who has experienced it. He also loved eating dried sweet potatoes when he was a child, and he would have diarrhea almost every time after eating too much.

"Don't worry, I won't eat too much. What's for dinner?" Zhuang Jinhan walked in behind Lu Siyu.

"Brother," Lu Siyun rushed out from the side, grabbed Lu Siyu's clothes and complained, "Brother, Brother Zhuang just ate a lot of dried sweet potatoes."

"Didn't we agree not to talk about it? Why are you suing your elder brother!" Zhuang Jinhan pulled Lu Siyun by the collar and lifted him up.

However, with so few summer clothes, Zhuang Jinhan couldn't really lift them up like in winter, but his collar was slightly pulled up, and he was still standing on the ground.

"Brother, Brother Zhuang is so fierce." Lu Siyun hugged Lu Siyu's thigh and continued to complain.

"Don't worry about him, he will definitely have diarrhea." Lu Siyu pulled Lu Siyun's clothes from Zhuang Jinhan's hand, "Let's go, what do you want to eat tonight?"

"I want to eat soybean ribs." Lu Siyun said loudly, and after speaking, he turned around and made a face at Zhuang Jinhan, and ran away smiling.

"Hey, what can this kid do?" Zhuang Jinhan sighed, looking at Lu Siyue who was standing aside, "Yueyue, tell me, is it your brother's fault?"

"Brother Zhuang, you obviously did something wrong." Lu Siyue raised her head.

"Why did I do something wrong? Didn't I just eat a few more pieces of dried sweet potatoes? That kid actually sued!!!" Zhuang Jinhan said angrily. After getting along for so long, the relationship between him and the three children seems to be very close , Facing a few children, I also habitually speak to them in a child's tone.

"Because elder brother said that if you eat too much dried sweet potato, you will have diarrhea." Lu Syue said seriously.

"Big brother, why do you all think that what he said is right, maybe he is wrong." Zhuang Jinhan said deliberately.

"Brother must be right!" Lu Siyue's expression was still very serious.

"Hey~~ I said you children... hiss..." Zhuang Jinhan clutched his stomach and turned around quickly, "I'm going to the bathroom."

After Zhuang Jinhan left, Lu Siyue nodded immediately, and said to herself: "Sure enough, what elder brother said is still right."

"Hey, where's Brother Zhuang?" Lu Siyun ran out from inside.

"Diarrhea." Lu Siyue said expressionlessly.

"Oh, I really have diarrhea, so I still have to listen to my brother." Lu Siyun showed such an expression on his face.

"That's right, Brother Zhuang didn't listen to what Brother Zhuang said, so he really had diarrhea." Lu Siyue felt that she admired him more and more, and everything she said made sense, "So what shall we have for dinner?"

"Soy ribs, sweet potato porridge, and bean sprouts."

"It's good, with ribs and bean sprouts!"

When Zhuang Jinhan came back, Lu Siyu was cooking, and he smiled when he saw him: "How do you feel?"

"What you said really makes sense." Zhuang Jinhan was helpless, he didn't expect to come to Lu Siyu's house for a meal with such difficulty, it would be like this.

"It's just right, you can leave room for dinner at night." Lu Siyu chuckled, "By the way, I told Uncle and Uncle and the others about your identity."

"Well, it's good for them to know, my identity is not unknown, it's just to avoid trouble." Zhuang Jinhan said, if everyone knew his real identity, he would be very troublesome every time he came.

"Uncle, Uncle, and the others probably won't tell the outside world, but the selling price this time is too high. If you don't tell them your real identity, I'm afraid they will think wildly." Lu Siyu explained that 900 taels is not a small amount of money. I don't know the source. They will be afraid of accidents when they hold it.

"That's true, your offer is indeed a bit bold this time." Zhuang Jinhan said with a smile.

"Unreasonable?" Lu Siyu asked back.

"Reasonable," Zhuang Jinhan nodded, "Reasonable is not the same as bold, if you know..." Someone's identity.

"Know what?" Lu Siyu asked while stirring the vegetables in the pot.

"It's nothing, why are you still eating soy ribs today, haven't you gotten tired of eating?" Zhuang Jinhan changed the subject, he didn't intend to tell Lu Siyu the identity of the emperor, so as not to worry Lu Siyu.

"Yunyun and Yueyue love to eat, not only soybean ribs, but also bean sprouts and tofu, so they cook more often." Zhuang Jinhan didn't say anything, and he didn't ask, but just followed his words, Anyway, there are some things he should know, he will know, and there is no need to know what he shouldn't know.

"Buy them something delicious when I come next time." Zhuang Jinhan offered.

"Okay." Lu Siyu nodded, not being too polite.

Everyone is used to dinner for five people. Even though Zhuang Jinhan is the county magistrate, he can blend in well in this environment. After eating, he chatted with a few friends.

"I think it's time to teach them to read, to learn the Three-Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, and Thousand-Character Classic." Zhuang Jinhan said.

"In fact, I have taught them a lot of characters these days, but the price of paper and pens is too expensive, and I couldn't afford them before. I don't require them to take the imperial examination. As long as they can read a few characters, they will not become illiterate in the future." , Do you want to learn the Three Character Classic, Hundred Family Surnames, and Thousand Character Classic?" Lu Siyu asked, he still hoped that they could decide their own future.

"I want to be able to read and write, but I still want to learn arithmetic." Lu Siyue said seriously.

"I also want to learn arithmetic." Lu Siyun raised his hand aside.

"Do you want to do business in the future?" Lu Siyu looked at the two and smiled.

"Well, because doing business can make money, Yueyue wants to make more money so that everyone can live a better life." Lu Siyue answered Lu Siyu's question earnestly. Since Lu Siyu said it once before, she never said it again. I used to get married to subsidize my natal family, but now I have a new idea, that is, she makes money by herself and uses her own money to subsidize her natal family. No one will gossip.

"Yunyun, what do you think?" Lu Siyu looked at Lu Siyun.

"I'm a man, I don't want my sister to support me, so I also want to start a business, if I earn more, I want to support my sister!" Lu Siyun's face was serious, completely different from his usual mischievous appearance.

"I want it too!" Lu Sile raised his little hand aside, he still couldn't complete his words, but it could still be heard that he was echoing Lu Siyun.

What the three of them said made Lu Siyu a little surprised, but seeing the three of them getting more serious than the other, he still felt warm in his heart, because he was not the only one working hard in this family.

"Okay, then from tomorrow, I will officially teach you to read, read, and count." Lu Siyu immediately agreed.

"Thank you bro."

"Brother is awesome!"

After the three children went to bed, Lu Siyu and Zhuang Jinhan walked into Lu Siyu's room.

"You really let their children do this?" Zhuang Jinhan asked.

"What's wrong?" Lu Siyu asked back.

"The three of them, Yueyue doesn't say, she is a girl, so I can see that he is very smart. He always remembers the words you teach him to write. If such a smart person keeps studying, he will definitely be able to pass the exam in the future. Why not train him from now on?" Zhuang Jinhan frowned.

Lu Siyu looked up at him, more than half a year later, because his nutrition kept up, his height was much taller than before, and looking at Zhuang Jinhan would not be as strenuous as before.

"Brother Zhuang, in my heart, Yueyue Yunyun and Lele are the same. Since I want to give them, I have to give them the same thing. Yueyue likes to do business, so I will teach her how to do business. Yunyun likes it too, and I will do it too." Teach him, Lele is still young, he will naturally know what he thinks when he grows up, no matter what, I respect their ideas."

"But Yueyue and Yunyun are still young. If you want Yueyue to marry a good family, it's best to let her learn some female celebrities, and she can learn to write. But for business, let her be a girl to deal with others, right? Not suitable? And so on, he is obviously very smart, and he can pass the imperial examination if he works harder. Isn’t it much better to be an official than to be a businessman? He is still young and doesn’t understand, so you have to guide him, as long as you say In one sentence, he will naturally give up doing business."

"Brother Zhuang, you are too pedantic," Lu Siyu looked at him seriously, "I know that Brother Zhuang must have been smart and a genius since he was a child, and I believe that Brother Zhuang really likes being an official and serving the people, but you can't say you like doing business The idea is wrong, a businessman is also an ordinary person, so he likes arithmetic and wants to do business, this is his own choice, if he regrets it later, he can change it at any time, Brother Zhuang, do you understand?"

"You mean that if he changes his mind in the future and wants to take the imperial examination to become an official, you will agree?" Zhuang Jinhan asked back.

"Why don't you agree?" Lu Siyu was surprised, not quite understanding Zhuang Jinhan's point.

"I thought you didn't like taking the imperial examination to become an official." Zhuang Jinhan said in a low voice, thinking that Lu Siyu was imposing his own ideas on his younger siblings.

Lu Siyu rolled his eyes, obviously he almost quarreled before, but it turned out to be this stupid reason.

He turned and walked away, the feeling of punching cotton was so fucking bad.

"Hey, wait a minute, did you just say that I'm pedantic?" Zhuang Jinhan hurried to catch up.

"Yes, as I said, you are pedantic about Yueyue!" Lu Siyu didn't want Lu Siyue to become a strong woman, he just wanted Lu Siyue to be happy, not forcing her to do what she could or couldn't do, Instead, let her live according to her own ideas.

"...Okay, I admit, compared to you, I'm a bit pedantic, I'm sorry, Brother Yu, I was wrong, can I apologize to you?"

"Humph!"
