Ancient promotion routine

"Today's situation is stable, but it may be difficult to find out who is behind it." Chen Su's expression became serious.

"Who do you think will benefit from a disturbance in Zhongzhou?" Zhang Yanjin asked suddenly.The people who came to Danyang Village today probably didn't ask for land for the sake of asking for land, but deliberately used words to anger people in Nanyang and Xinyang, and started a fight with weapons.

As a result, Nanyang and Xinyang will be in chaos. If the tea tree garden cannot be opened, there will be no way to make money. In the end, Zhang Yanjin will be the one to blame.

Judging from today's situation, the people from Danyang Village seem to have achieved their goals. After all, people from Nanyang and Xinyang have copied them. More importantly, they dared to throw stones at Huang Xiujun. What does he think? They all came here to make trouble, just to muddy the water here.

The water is so clear that there are no fish, so who wants to muddy the water and fish in it?Zhang Yanjin couldn't figure it out, and Chen Su couldn't figure it out even more.

In any case, the turmoil of Nanyang and Xinyang people gathering to make troubles has calmed down. Zhang Yanjin was calm and composed when facing the people making troubles, and quickly passed through the matter of making those troublemakers memorize the law code.

After all, this is the first time in history that people have asked ordinary people to recite the code of law. spread out.

The emperor, who was far above the temple, laughed when he heard about it. He only felt that it was interesting that Zhang Yanjin did not play cards according to the routine. There was a wave of enthusiasm for enlightening the people, which made the common people feel miserable.

Zhang Yanjin had no time to take care of these, because after the tea tree garden was settled, he took Chen Su to Jiaozuo and other places, and began to develop sericulture gardens, sesame bases, peanut bases, and Chinese herbal medicine planting areas.

Zhongzhou is located in the Central Plains, and it is the birthplace of a generation of civilization. The soil is fertile and the climate is suitable, so it is suitable for the growth of most crops.

Sesame and peanuts are typical representatives here. He remembers that peanuts and sesame seeds here are exported to various places every year in later generations. As for the typical representatives of Huai medicine, chrysanthemum, yam, achyranthes bidentata, bellflower and other medicinal materials are not to mention.

Sericulture is because Zhang Yanjin saw the Hexi Corridor opened by Beizheng and the Nanyang trade route opened up by him. Zhang Yanjin knew that whoever took the first step in these two trade routes would be able to make a lot of money in it.There are precedents for silk in ancient times, and it has been sought after everywhere, and even nobles in some places regard wearing silk as noble.

After planning the places, Zhang Yanjin began to arrange for the people to plant them. He had already discussed with Liu Junyi. When this winter happened to be calm in Nanyang, the goods would be transported to Ningzhou, and Liu Junyi would transport them overseas. .

As for the business route of the Hexi Corridor, unlike the sea, you need to consider the weather, and you can start at any time.

In addition to these, Zhang Yanjin also opened a small factory to produce sesame paste and peanut butter. No one in the Wei Dynasty had used sesame paste and peanut butter, but he had eaten these two kinds of sauces, and he knew very well how fragrant these two kinds of sauces were.

He planned to put the factory into operation after the autumn harvest.

While Zhang Yanjin was busy, Huang Xiujun and Yuwen Shangkai were not idle either.

Huang Xiujun really suffered from the heat that day, and was hit on the forehead by a stone, and then passed out in a daze. After a good rest for a day, he was worried about the progress of the construction, and immediately rushed to the construction site.

After Yuwen Shangkai planned the construction of various places together with Zhang Yanjin, he began to let people build from the inside out in various places.

As a result, the bricks and cement produced by Luoyang's red-fired brick factory and cement factory were not enough. Under Zhang Yanjin's arrangement, the number of workers in the red-fired brick factory and cement factory was nearly doubled, and this was barely sufficient. Stone bricks and cement needed everywhere.

Every day in Zhongzhou, the belly turns pale, and the clanging sound of labor accompanied by the labor chants of the common people hovered over Zhongzhou until it got dark in the evening.

The hot summer weather does not seem to affect everyone's enthusiasm and enthusiasm for work at all. It seems that in front of hopes and goals, all external obstacles are just clouds.

The emperor was concerned about Zhongzhou. In order not to disturb the construction process of Zhongzhou, he even asked the prince to build the country. He brought Li Mingrui's micro-service to Zhongzhou for a private visit.

Looking at the red brick houses rising from the ground one after another, listening to the loud labor chant, the emperor felt his heart beat.

It has to be said that he heard the determination of the people in Zhongzhou, their strength to struggle, and their desire for life in the sound of labor chants!

"It is said that after Zhang Yanjin spoke words of encouragement to these victims in Datong and Yulin, he called them back." Li Mingrui reported in due course.

The emperor has a lot of things to deal with every day, and the things he has to deal with every day are very complicated. As a person who follows the emperor, he is responsible for remembering some things, and reporting to the emperor in a timely manner when the emperor needs to know.

Seeing the emperor looking at him, Li Mingrui told the emperor what Zhang Yanjin had said in the rumors.

The emperor looked at the common people who were standing on the iron frame and brushing the cement on the red brick house, and found that the blouses on their bodies had long been soaked with sweat, and the skin under the clothes was completely different from the skin exposed on the arms. Very different colors.

What kind of determination and cohesion is this that allows them to be so motivated despite such a big sun?It was the first time he had seen people in a place so forge ahead without any motivation, and the power in it really shocked him as an emperor.

The right time, the right place, and the harmony between people, the right time and the right place, and the right place, and the current state of Zhongzhou, he feels that Zhang Yanjin has developed the harmony between people to the extreme.

The emperor has also seen the planning map of Zhongzhou submitted by Zhang Yanjin, and it is not difficult for him to imagine what Zhongzhou will look like when the red brick houses are built!

When Li Mingrui asked the emperor if he wanted to go inside, or let Zhang Yanjin and the others lead the way so that he could go in and have a good look around, the emperor waved his hand and refused, and got on his horse and said, "I'm going to disturb them instead, wait until it's completely built After that, it will not be too late for me to come back!"

In this way, after a private visit on the emperor's microservice, he returned directly to Chang'an City, and when Zhang Yanjin and Chen Su received a letter from Chen Derang and Zhang Zhongqian asking them to prepare, they found out that the emperor had already gone back.

After the two looked at each other, Zhang Yanjin guessed what the emperor was thinking, and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go to work, the emperor doesn't want to disturb us, let us work hard."

It was easy to say, but Zhang Yanjin admired the current emperor more and more in his heart. He really deserved to be a generation of virtuous emperors. He didn't put on the emperor's airs.

During this period of time, although Zhang Yanjin has been busy in other places, he has been worrying about the Luoyang Peony Garden. Many craftsmen have come to Luoyang one after another with the support of amber wine shops in various places.

Under Zhang Yanjin's arrangement, the craftsmen first visited the peony garden, and then made a handicraft at Zhang Yanjin's request.

If according to the judging criteria, Zhang Yanjin thought the workmanship was good, Zhang Yanjin would spend a lot of money to keep the craftsman. If he felt that the workmanship of the coming craftsman was not good, Zhang Yanjin would pay the travel expenses and send the craftsman away tactfully.

In this way, after more than ten days, hundreds of highly skilled craftsmen were screened out.

At the same time, Zhang Wuer also returned to Luoyang with the craftsmen of the Xiangshan Gang.

Only then did Zhang Yanjin know that the craftsmen of this generation of Xiangshan Gang have not made a fortune yet, and the head is Yang Yaozu.Although this person has no mark in history, his son has left his name in history.

Yang Yaozu's son is Yang Huizhi, who applied the painting style of painter Zhang Sengkui to sculpture and architecture to create the nine statues of Arhats in Baosheng Temple.

In terms of art, whether a person can make a fortune or be famous depends on a certain amount of luck.

Yang Huizhi's craftsmanship was passed down from his father Yang Yaozu, which is enough to prove that Yang Yaozu's craftsmanship is superb.

Furthermore, when Yang Yaozu and others complete the construction of the Peony Garden, I am afraid that they will also be famous in history along with the Peony Garden.

What made Zhang Yanjin even more excited was that he not only recruited craftsmen this time, but also recruited the famous painter Wen Huiming.Wen Huiming belongs to the painter of the Wumen School of Painting. His calligraphy and painting attainments can be described as extremely comprehensive. He is proficient in poetry, calligraphy, literature, and art, and he is proficient in everything.

The most important thing is that no matter which of the four aspects of poetry, calligraphy, literature, and culture, he learns from famous masters.

In terms of painting, he studied under Shen Zhou, and later founded the Wu School of Painting together with Shen Zhou. In the history of painting, he is called the Four Schools of Wu School together with Shen Zhou, Tang Bohu and Qiu Ying.

Coincidentally, Tang Bohu and others are known as the four great talents in Wuzhong in his poems and essays.

Now, with the famous painter Wen Huiming, the craftsmen of the Xiangshan Gang headed by Yang Yaozu, Yuwen Shangkai, a planning master who knows Fengshui, and countless skilled craftsmen below, such a group of people gathered Together, he is still afraid that the Peony Garden will not become the largest garden in the world today?

Now Zhang Yanjin completely authorized Wen Huiming, Yang Yaozu, and Yuwen Shangkai to manage the Peony Garden, and asked them to plan and build the Peony Garden, so they didn't have to worry about money.

It's not that he was lazy and didn't participate in the design of the Peony Garden, but that he knew that he only knew superficially. The so-called art has specialization, and it is a way to save time and effort by entrusting the work to someone who is good at it.

In less than half a month, Wen Huiming, Yang Yaozu, and Yuwen Shangkai completed the planning, and the construction of the Peony Garden officially kicked off.

Zhang Yanjin was not idle either. He first contacted Liu Junyi by letter and asked him to bring back the flower seeds when he went overseas this year. He planned to introduce the overseas varieties into the peony garden for cultivation, and then sell them to various places in Zhongzhou and countries in the Western Regions.

As the so-called rarity is the most precious, he plans to sell the local peonies in Zhongzhou to overseas and the Western Regions.

He also arranged for people to pick all the tea leaves from Nanyang and Xinyang, and processed them into the fragrant Xinyang Maojian.
