Clam Pearl

After all, there are many smart people in this world. Master Guichen's incense burner is miserable. Apart from the main nunnery and the master of Fayuan Temple who chant scriptures here every day, the Gu family did not go, nor did the Ding family. They stayed until Boss Hu. After people's stories got out, fewer people went there.

Until now, the two kings realized that something was wrong, and they were probably rejected by their father.

The two kings were in constant fear all day long, because they had mothers who couldn't get rid of their filial piety, and besides being anxious, it was Zhao Yuanxiang, the king of Jibei, who played the role of a filial son and grandson, and he was there for everything.

Seeing that the weather is getting hotter and the tense atmosphere in Beijing has just left, the concierge of Gu Zhao's family is busy again, and the Gu family of the old temple came to pay their respects.

They said they were asking for peace, but they just wanted to connect with each other. Hu Ji and his son thought that they were dissatisfied with Zhao Yuanshan when they saw that they did not become kings today. Rui pushed it out.

For a while, the relationship between the first-milk compatriots became very tense.

At noon that day, the weather was warm, and Gu Zhao picked up his elder brother early in the morning. Recently, the current situation was turbulent, and there were people everywhere observing the news and inquiring about the truth. Wandering in the backyard, Arong was also there. Compared to Gu Zhao's friendship with his elder brother, Arong regarded Gu Yan as a little friend.

Lixia had just passed, it was the beginning of summer, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Gu Zhao ordered someone to set up a large low couch under the shade of a tree, surrounded by curtains. He and Arong sat on the low couch, watching his elder brother dig a hole.

Digging is Gu Yan's favorite game recently. Perhaps this kind of game reminds him of his childhood life. Now that his "father" has given him full freedom, he has no scruples about spreading Gu Zhao's well-decorated garden everywhere. The digging is a hole.

In response to Gu Yan's digging behavior, Gu Zhao also found a blacksmith for his brother, and made all kinds of small shovels, small hoes, and small rakes.

For a while, the garden was completely destroyed, and there were knee-high pits all over the ground.

Gu Yan was still digging today, perhaps because he felt that his game was a bit boring, so he dug for a while, and offered some tributes to Gu Zhao's low couch, including small stones, leaves picked from trees, and various kinds of things he made himself. Mud balls and branches, in his opinion, are all good things.

It didn't take long because of these tributes.Ah Rong, who was sitting on the low couch, was also dirty like a mud child.

Even so, Gu Zhao didn't care about it, unless Ah Rong ate the mud as a meal, and at other times, he let them do whatever they wanted.

The three of them were harming Huanshi, but Fu Ji arrived early, and it was fine when he arrived, but Zhao Yuanxiu also followed behind him.

To be honest, these two are just like the two sons born in this strange family of Gu Zhao and Zhao Chunrun. Ever since they disclosed their relationship with their own people in private, their words and deeds have become more and more like a normal family.

Sometimes, Zhao Yuanxiu sympathizes with his father very much, there is no way, his father wants to fight and quarrel with his little father, his father has never won in history.

Naturally, Zhao Yuanxiu's sideways move was towards Zhao Chunrun.

Fu Ji was not like this, Fu Ji didn't dare to fight in the past, he privately made things difficult for Zhao Yuanxiu to vent his anger on his husband.

Why, because of the father and son, my husband lost his blood, sacrificed his youth, and even sacrificed his family fortune. In the end, he lost himself... It doesn't make sense.

In this way, Zhao Yuanxiu studied abroad every year, as long as he dared to go to the immigrant county, Fu Ji would make things difficult for him in private.

These two people were still fighting each other at first, but in the end, they were like children, fighting for favor and quarreling when they met.

Don't talk about it if you have a reason. Anyway, you won the argument first.

Gu Zhao loosened the soft belt around Arong's waist, he was afraid that Arong would fall to the couch.

Zhao Yuanxiu looked at her mud princess, and the corners of her mouth twitched violently a few times. This kind of love is really... It's really indescribable, and no one else can ask for it.

When Ah Rong saw his father, he immediately lifted up the lump of mud in his hand with joy and filial piety, and said: "Ah...ah...Father, eat (eat)!"

Zhao Yuanxiu had no choice but to salute Gu Zhao first, then sat on a chair beside him and said to Arong, "My father won't eat it, so Arong will eat it."

Unexpectedly, Ah Rong walked back into the back room with a smile, and bit the mud ball with one bite. This movement was so quick and fast that no one could guard against it!

The mud was delicious, Zhao Yuanxiu went to grab it immediately, and Ah Rong started to cry with a mouthful of mud.

Gu Zhao was furious, pointing at him and scolding: "People are playing well, why are you still thinking about you, but you are good, if you don't come, you won't come, and if you come, you will make me cry!"

After that, he stood up, hugged Arong in tabby socks and stood on the ground to coax him.

Zhao Yuanxiu was very distressed, he pointed to the ground and said: "Anyway, if you put on your shoes and scold me, and he will find out about me later, it doesn't matter if you say me, but now I'm really afraid of his nagging!"

Gu Zhao sneered: "Don't be afraid! He is keeping his filial piety in the palace! It's been a long time since I came back, and now you are still worried about these..."

Just as he was talking, a pair of thick and dirty hands suddenly stretched out beside him, and Gu Yan smiled and comforted others: "Sister, don't cry, daddy is bad, brother will help you beat him!"

After all, Gu Yan unceremoniously hit Gu Zhao's butt a few times.

Gu Zhao groaned, and reluctantly handed over the big and small ones to the accompanying attendants: "Hurry up, take your ancestors and grandma down to clean up, clean up, it's hot, cook some for them."

After the group of people coaxed and deceived the two troublemakers away, Gu Zhao didn't care whether he was covered in mud or how dirty he was, so he went back to sit down on the slum. On one side, Fu Ji said without saying a word: "Why did you come with him?"

Fu Ji smiled: "Early in the morning, the prince waited for me in the department when he came back from the temple. No, the students have just finished their work."

Gu Zhao took the teacup on the side and looked at Zhao Yuanxiu: "Are you so anxious?"

Zhao Yuanxiu suddenly became embarrassed.

Can he not be in a hurry, some pits have been dug for five years, just waiting for these days, some anger, some grievances, he has been holding it in his stomach since he was born, he can't bear it for a day.

Especially those two who came out and went in with the fetal portrait of the elder brother as the father, he really couldn't bear it.

Zhao Yuanxiu saw that Gu Zhao had finished speaking, and drank water slowly. After all, he couldn't hold back and said, "Little Daddy, do you remember the Yan family of the Sishui Wang family?"

Gu Zhao nodded, how could he forget it, when it was found out that Yan and Li Yongji were linked together, many people were arrested back then, but the one who made a name for himself is still alive and well.

Gu Zhao asked: "Why, is it time to talk?"

Zhao Yuanxiu nodded, his face suddenly glowed with layers of nourishing red light. It has been five years, but it is not the time. Now thinking of Duan Wozi's sourness, he has recently kowtowed and saluted. Because it's gone.

Fu Ji said with a smile on the side: "Well, it's almost there. The sooner Qian Dingsi can do it, the better. Now the collection belongs to our treasury. If we wait for Zhuang Chengxiu and the others, then we don't know who will take the collection. .”

Zhao Yuanxiu smiled: "It's the same for everyone, now... now is the right time!"

But no, now the two kings are having a hard time, and the people above are panicking because of the matter of the crown prince. If he doesn't step on it a few times, he won't be Zhao Yuanxiu.

Fu Ji glanced sideways at Zhao Yuanxiu, yes, for him, whichever warehouse he belongs to is not his warehouse in the end.

That's easy to say!How boring, his teacher has worked hard for more than ten years to immigrate to the county. In his opinion, there is no more shameless person in this world than Zhao.

Zhao Yuanxiu didn't want to offend Fu Ji, he continued to chatter with a calm smile: "The Yan family in Dengzhou, the Hu family, and the gang from the Lao Miao family have made a lot of money in recent years!

Now, you don’t know that the weaving bureaus of these households in Dengzhou are getting bigger and bigger. After five years, all the fields of these Dengzhou households have been planted into mulberry fields, and now the trees have become forests. , Moreover, that place is close to Ganzhou, Nianzhou, I thought about it, and told my father, Nianzhou should also start to move people, just to take advantage of it. "

Gu Zhao nodded and said: "You can figure it out. I said earlier that the framework of the seven counties will be laid out. Now the three counties have become a big trend. We will let go of the rest. How do you want to make trouble?" , you tell your father."

Zhao Yuanxiu froze for a moment, looked at Gu Zhao, then at Fu Ji.

Is this really no hand, no interference?These two people managed the three counties into a paradise on earth, supporting most of the economy of Daliang country, and now he just asked tentatively, did they really care about it?

Fu Ji snorted, and said with a sneer: "The house in my hometown was burned down, and the ancestors spurned it. You still think we are happy! So much food and drink, birth, old age, sickness and death, how many people's future is hanging on them, who wants to care about it."

Gu Zhao also nodded in a relaxed manner. He looked at Fu Ji and said, "Yes, I'm embarrassing you!"

Fu Ji was suddenly embarrassed, and hurriedly stood up and said, "Sir...you know that's not what students mean!"

Gu Zhao smiled: "Yes, yes, I knew you wanted to go back to the official department."

Fu Ji nodded, and said shamelessly: "That's right, there is a free official residence, and various benefits, and I'm free. I've had enough of this poor place like Qian Ding Division."

Fu Ji's words came from the bottom of his heart, there is no one who hates Qian Ding Si more than him.

Zhao Yuanxiu looked at Fu Ji and his little father, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In fact, he really didn't regard Fu Ji as an outsider in his heart, but really regarded him as half a brother.

It's a pity, what kind of master is there, so what kind of apprentice is there, this pair of master and apprentice, weird and lonely, they can really hide away, and they must hide more, if they can ignore it, they will be killed I don't reach out either.

Unexpectedly, such a big event as Qian Ding was done by these two people.

Others relocate, the sky is angry and others complain, and the official and life are not good.

These two, within a few years of hard work, actually managed to create the Three Golden Counties, and now the commercial squares outside the third gate of Shangjing, the shops with the Seven Counties Department Store brand, are all their cash cows, Xiaojinshan.

Now these two people just say no to it?

From the perspective of human nature, Zhao Yuanxiu did not believe it from the bottom of his heart.

To be honest, his father was also vaguely disbelieving.

In the first moment, Gu Zhao patiently explained a few words, but now, Gu Zhao is too lazy to talk to this pair of small-bellied father and son, believe it or not.

Master Yang was getting taller and taller, Gu Zhao stood up and put on his shoes, took Fu Ji and Zhao Yuanxiu for a walk in the yard while arranging things.

"Tomorrow, I will discuss with your father. In the remaining four states, Qian Ding Division will not follow up. We have limited personnel now, and we cannot support them."

Zhao Yuanxiu frowned, looked at his little daddy's face, and after seeing nothing, he pleaded in a pleading tone: "Little daddy..."

Gu Zhao suddenly laughed: "I said you are so grown up, and you still act like a baby! Do you think you were a child? Oh, you are lying, and I will accept you. To tell you the truth, we have no preparation personnel at all. You know about this! Now, if you want to employ people, we don’t have them. Here, we are just right. The three counties have a virtuous circle, and we don’t even have a single surplus person!”

Speaking of this, Gu Zhao felt that he was really helpless. He had encountered this feeling of powerlessness once in the first half of his life, when his nurse brother cut off his own tongue. Throughout the year, he has said it countless times, and his lips have worn down two layers. Why can't this father and son believe it?

Zhao Yuanxiu began to settle down in his own world, talking about the dirty things of the two kings: "Yesterday I went to the palace and said a few words to my father, and my father meant the same thing. Now is the right time. Now, the Yan family of Dengzhou Next to the land of Ganzhou, mulberry and hemp have already grown into forests. His family, Laomiao Gu’s family, Hu’s family, and miscellaneous ones are now operating in Dengzhou’s weaving bureau. Now there are seventy or eighty families. I made a calculation before, In the largest fourteen weaving bureaus, the craftsmen consumed thirty-eight thousand seven hundred and sixty five stones, four buckets, two combinations and four spoons of food and grass in the last month."

Gu Zhao was taken aback, looked at him for a long time before saying, "There are so many?"

Standing aside, Fu Ji sneered: "More than that, half of the Ganzhou cloth in Fangshi three doors away are private goods, and the craftsmanship of these private goods is sometimes better than the quality of our Ganzhou Weaving Bureau. We use craftsmen with mature skills, our side? Those are all new apprentices who have been trained in the past few years."

Zhao Yuanxiu nodded and added: "Furthermore, how far is it from Dengzhou's private goods to Shangjing? The transportation loss of Ganzhou's goods to Shangjing is more than three layers higher than that of that side. So, Dengzhou's private goods are pressing Ganzhou. State goods are sold."

When Gu Zhao heard this, he didn't care too much. Now there are many factories in the seven counties, and the goods are various. Moreover, they are produced and mainly supplied to the internal consumption of the three counties, so they don't worry about sales.

The goods outside are like flowers, but Gu Zhao does not allow them to enter the seven counties to hit the market, and they cannot be sold at all.

On the other side of the small river bank, after changing his clothes, Gu Yan, who was full after eating, held a willow branch and ran there, bouncing and bouncing. Behind him, a group of slaves were running hard to follow.

Gu Zhao suddenly smiled, turned his face and said to the two in a good mood: "I'm thinking about it, my old brother, at least I can live for 20 years!"

Fu Ji nodded with a smile: "It's almost the same. The old man will go to war in his life. He is a practicing family man. His body is much tougher than those of us who write."

Gu Zhao thought about it, and it was indeed the reason, so his mood became even better. After walking a few steps in the direction of his elder brother, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and told Zhao Yuanxiu and Fu Ji very carefully: "I don't care about other people, but some people commit crimes, and after all, they implicate their descendants... The old Miao family and our family are the same ancestors. The sins committed by men, don't implicate the little girls. Those girls were imprisoned from birth. In the backyard, they cannot control their lives, and they will be implicated even if a man commits crimes, I think this is wrong."

Zhao Yuanxiu and the others quickly responded.

Gu Zhao walked away with another sentence, and then started to babble again: "For offending people tomorrow, don't look for me and Fu Ji again, the old temple is involved here, you go to Li Zhai, go to Li Qi... Aren't you good with them?"

Zhao Yuanxiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and shouted softly: "Little Daddy, where is the reason? Oh, we went to seize it? Return everything to you?"

Fu Ji interjected with a smile: "Why is there no such reason? This brother is still clear about it... Besides, you and my husband? Besides, we are the sufferers. I will set fire tomorrow, but our Ganzhou people will be burned." Weaving Bureau, why not compensate us for the loss? Why did it go to waste?"

He spread his hands and said: "Otherwise, let's not bother? Who are we working hard for? So, go back to your fief and find a place to burn it?"

Zhao Yuanxiu suddenly became angry: "Go, go, you can go and burn whatever you want, burn whatever you like! Burn..."

It's okay for the two of them to stand on the bank and quarrel like this, there is an old child learning to talk in this family.

Neither of them saw it, but the old man Gu Yan sneaked over at some point, hid behind the big tree, grinning innocently with his missing teeth, and imitated the two of them: "Burn it, burn it, go wherever you like." Burn it! Burn it all...hehe, burn it..."
