When Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui arrived near the villa, the slaves were having dinner in their respective cafeterias.There are 5 large dining halls in the valley, and each large dining hall has more than 150 people dining. The tableware for the slaves is distributed by the valley, and each person has two sets.Some of the slaves who got the food squatted outside the cafeteria to eat, and some would bring them back to their mud huts to eat. Most of the slaves who brought back their meals were slaves with small families. Everyone in the valley knew each other. Families only need to line up with one person to get back a family-sized share.

It is hot summer now, even though the sun sets at night, the temperature still hasn’t dropped much, the mud house is very stuffy, and there are especially many slaves eating outside the house today, they take their simple stools from the house to the open space in front of the house, a group of people Sitting around eating and chatting.

Most of the simple stools are wooden piles.The roots left by the felled trees must be dug out before they can be turned into arable land. The slaves processed the dug out roots into stools. There were one or two such stools in each mud house.

When Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui returned to the villa, they deliberately avoided the slaves who were eating dinner. If the slaves saw them passing by, they would drop their bowls and chopsticks to salute their masters.When the slaves had dinner, it was the most relaxed and happy time of the day, and Zheng and Chu didn't want to disturb the slaves.

There are two tables in the courtyard of the villa. On one table are the meals for Zheng Chu and the other, and on the other table are the dinners for the three children.An oil lamp was lit on the two tables. The oil lamp used vegetable oil for lighting. Three children were learning to read under the lamp with paper.Mosquito coils are lit on the cement floor next to the two tables, which are made of a kind of mosquito grass.This kind of mosquito-repellent incense not only repels mosquitoes, but also avoids insects when they smell it.There were no bugs around the two dining tables, only some moths still bravely pounced on the oil lamps. Of course, the end was not very good. After a few minutes around the oil lamps, moths were unconscious there.

As soon as Zheng Yuming entered the yard, Mu Mu rushed over whimpering, this little guy missed his master so much.

Zheng Yuming picked up the wood, stroked its dog fur, and sighed slightly in his heart.It has been five months since it was teleported here in the 21st century. It usually takes about nine months for a German Shepherd to grow up and take shape. It is more than a month old, even if it does not grow into a big dog, it must be a small big dog, but today's wood, which has only grown for a month in the 21st century, is still a small wolfdog.

Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui discovered the strange growth rate of wood in the second month after they came to this time and space. They not only found that the growth of wood was slow, but also their own metabolism slowed down. The growth rate of nails and hair was only half of the original time and space. However, the growth of the plants transmitted together around the villa is the opposite. The plants grow more vigorously and grow faster when they arrive here.For example, the sugar maple tree native to North America originally took 15 years to use the sap to make sugar, but judging from the current growth of the sugar maple tree, five sugar maple trees that are nine years old can be boiled in less than a year Make maple syrup.The grapes on the vines beside the well in the yard would not ripen until August, but now they can be eaten in early July.The same goes for other fruit trees and vegetables in the greenhouse. Some of the precious flowers and trees that Zheng Yuming considered dispensable were transplanted casually to the forest, and now they are growing gratifyingly. Plants that are bound to die at low temperatures can come back to life after the temperature rises and grow freely.

Zheng and Chu couldn't find any scientific phenomenon to explain this problem, or it might be too scientific for them to understand, but both of them and the dog are both in good health, and slow growth is not a bad thing, except for the wood's ambition After being hit, at this growth rate, it will have to wait patiently for two or three years if it wants to become a majestic wolfdog.

Zheng Yuming went to the well to wash, and then went to have dinner with the wood that never left.The Huo brothers and sisters and Wei Qing waited until Zheng Chu moved their chopsticks before picking up their rice bowls. The food on their table was the same as that on Zheng Chu's table, and Zheng Chu's table had only more bottles than these three children. Qingzhuang premium rice wine.

The slaves were in the happiest mood when they were having dinner, and Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui were also in the happiest mood drinking together under the starry night. The voices of people outside the courtyard, the whispers of the three children at the dinner table, and the distant forest The sound of the nightingale chirping, the gusts of evening wind blowing over them, and the mellow rice wine they sipped in their mouths made the two of them feel that all the busy work was worthwhile.

The three children ate very fast, and when they finished eating and put down their rice bowls, Mrs. Su immediately went forward to clean up the things on the table, making room for the three of them to continue studying.

"Sizhong, bring this lamp over as well." Zheng Yuming didn't want the children to become short-sighted in the future. The moon is very round tonight, and they can clearly see the food and wine on the dinner table without an oil lamp.

"Yes, my lord!" Huo Sizhong never hesitated to carry out Zheng Yuming's instructions.Huo Sizhong put the lamp behind the table, but Wei Qing didn't notice that there was an extra lamp on the table. He was scratching his head at a math problem.Wei Qing is the smartest of the three children, but he is the worst at learning knowledge. Wei Qing would rather train harder than sit quietly and write and count, but both Zheng and Chu are very concerned about their studies To make progress, Wei Qing had to work hard to fight these dense numbers.

There was a knock on the courtyard door, Mrs. Su opened the small door on the stainless steel door, and Fan Jin came in with a bunch of wild game.At this time, the person who came to the villa was either the manager or Fan Jin. The manager came to report something, and Fan Jin came to study.

Fan Jin brought the wild meat cleaned by the slaves, and asked Mrs. Su to put it in a wooden barrel and hang it in the well. The temperature in the well is cool, and the raw meat will not smell bad when cooked tomorrow.

"Come and have a drink!" Chu Zhaohui greeted Fan Jin. Since Fan Jin learned from him what ideological education is, he immediately implemented it in front of the children in class. Of course, that kind of thinking was summed up by Fan Jin himself.

"Thank you, my lord!" Fan Jin was overjoyed. Eating and drinking are trivial matters, and the two adults showed great importance to him.

Zheng Yuming looked at the respectful Fan Jin with a different kind of joy. This ventriloquist who only knows a hundred words has changed from an exiled prisoner to a soul engineer in the valley in just over two months. The slaves in the valley, When they see Fan Jin, they will respectfully call him "teacher". They are uneducated but respect the tutors.From the day Fan Jin was appointed as a teacher, he was as excited as if he had been injected with chicken blood, and he worked very hard to learn by himself.

Chu Chaohui chatted with Fan Jin while drinking wine.Fan Jin has been to many aristocratic homes of the Wu state to perform skills, and he has a little understanding of the upper class of the Wu state.Zheng and Chu want to know the situation of various forces in Wu Wangting, and Fan Jin can provide a lot of useful information.

"Now the royal court is divided into two factions. One is headed by Hushi General, and the other is headed by Dr. Jiang. The people of the capital don't like Dr. Jiang."

"Why do people dislike Doctor Jiang? Who do you think is good and who is bad?" Zheng Yuming became interested.

"Doctor Jiang owes his power to today by showing off his beauties. He is a sycophant, and the Hushi General is a loyal minister." Fan Jin curled his lips, and he looked down on Doctor Jiang Qing in his heart.People always look down on ministers who use treasures and women to win the favor of the king.

"Why do I feel that the old forces are fighting against the new forces?" Zheng Yuming shook his head.

"It's all a conflict of interests." Chu Zhaohui heard the essence of the dispute between the two factions. It seems that Doctor Jiang's surname Qing is gaining more and more power in the royal court, which has already affected the interests of the aristocratic family. Only conflicts of interest will arise. Controversy, if the Hussar General thought that Dr. Jiang was a courtier for presenting beauties, and wanted to get rid of traitors, what did he do ten years ago?If they didn't stand on Prince Zhao's side ten years ago, but only after ten years, Doctor Jiang must have seriously threatened them.

The two sentences Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui talked about were in Mandarin, and Fan Jin couldn't understand them. He squinted his eyes and observed his two masters. The feeling of not getting in.

After ten o'clock in the evening in the valley, there was no sound of people, no light in sight, and people had already gone back to bed.Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui did not sleep in the bedroom on the second floor, but spread Zhangxia mats on the big balcony in front of the attic on the third floor. The wind is the strongest here, so you won't sweat when you lie down here, and there are no mosquitoes when you light two coils of mosquito coils next to them. Biting, Zheng Yuming and Chu Chaohui have been sleeping here for the past few days.

"Zhaohui, can we build the valley into a real paradise?" Zheng Yuming spoke with his eyes closed.

"What kind of paradise?" Chu Chaohui lay sideways beside Zheng Yuming, greedily looking at Zheng Yuming under the moonlight.Eighteen or nine-year-old Zheng Yuming's appearance is between that of a boy and an adult, and he has a special charm.

"No hunger, no privileges, democracy, and freedom. Am I crazy to think so?" Zheng Yuming chuckled softly: "I originally planned to write a YY novel, which was to let the protagonist travel to ancient times to build a dream country. I didn't expect that I didn't write the novel, but I really came here."

After arriving here, Zheng Yuming realized that all ideals are blank in front of survival. He and Chu Chaohui were lucky to meet such a kind and generous nobleman as Gong Ziguang. With the protection of Gong Ziguang, the valley can develop rapidly. With sneaky business and slave buying, the Valley and Southport wouldn't take shape in more than four months.

"With enough strength, we can have your paradise under our jurisdiction. Yu Ming, your ideal may not come true."

Chu Zhaohui grabbed Zheng Yuming's hand and shook it lightly.

Zheng Yuming opened his eyes, only to see Chu Chaohui's eyes drooping, unable to see the expression on his face.

"Zhaohui, what is your ideal?"

"My ideal?" Chu Zhaohui let go of Zheng Yuming's hand, raised his eyes to look at it, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth: "My ideal is to live righteously and confidently." Chu Zhaohui paused for a while. "Living in what you call Xanadu with the people I love."

"Haha!" Zheng Yuming laughed happily.

"What are you laughing at?" Chu Zhaohui froze for a moment.

"I thought you were going to be Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty." Zheng Yuming has always been worried. He is afraid that the valley will develop to a certain point, and Chu Chaohui will use the power of the valley to fight for hegemony. Zheng Yuming doesn't like the monarchy. He is a democracy in his bones. Activists.

"No! I don't have that ambition. When I first came here, I just wanted to live a good life. Now..." Chu Zhaohui swallowed the last part of his sentence.

"What do you want now?" Zheng Yuming turned over and asked Chu Chaohui.

"Now..." Chu Zhaohui's eyes were bright: "Now I want to live a better life!"

"..." Zheng Yuming focused on waiting for Chu Chaohui's ambitions, but he didn't expect to hear these words, which were not ambitious. "You are not as ideal as I am!"

"Haha! My ideal has always been the most practical!" Chu Chaohui looked at Zheng Yuming who curled his lips, and burst out laughing.

It is the dream of many people to live a life of freedom and dignity, and to have a loved one.
